Volume Surge Webhook AlertThis TradingView indicator, named "Volume Surge Webhook Alert," is designed to find significant increases in trading volume and send out alerts with key information. It works by looking back at the volume over a certain number of past candlesticks, which you can set using the "Lookback Period" input. The indicator calculates the average volume during this period. Then, it sets a threshold for what counts as a "volume surge." This threshold is a percentage increase over the average volume, and you can adjust this percentage using the "Volume Surge Threshold (%)" input.
When the current candlestick's volume is higher than this threshold, the indicator considers it a volume surge. To help you see this visually, the indicator plots three lines on a separate chart: the average volume (in blue), the current volume (in red), and the threshold volume (in gray circles).
If a volume surge happens, the indicator creates a webhook alert. This alert sends a message in a structured format (like a digital envelope) that contains the following information: the symbol of the stock or cryptocurrency, the timeframe of the chart you're looking at, the current volume, the average volume, the threshold volume, and a simple message saying a volume surge was detected. This alert is sent only once when the candlestick closes with a volume surge.
Additionally, when a volume surge is detected, a small red exclamation mark "!" will appear above that candlestick on the main price chart.
Essentially, this indicator helps traders spot times when trading volume is unusually high, which can sometimes be a sign of important price movements. You can customize how sensitive the indicator is by changing the "Lookback Period" and the "Volume Surge Threshold (%)". The webhook alerts allow you to be notified automatically when these surges occur, so you don't have to constantly watch the charts.
Smart Moving AveragesSmart Moving Averages analyzes the dynamic interplay between price action and multiple moving averages to identify high-probability support and resistance zones.
The script's distinguishing features include:
Bounce detection that filters out noise by requiring specific penetration thresholds (0.1-1.5%), helping traders identify genuine support tests versus false signals
Real-time MA clustering analysis that reveals zones where multiple moving averages converge, indicating potentially stronger support/resistance levels
Statistical tracking of bounce success rates for each MA, allowing traders to identify which moving averages are most reliable for the current market conditions
Power bounce detection that combines EMA spread analysis with trend confirmation, highlighting especially strong bullish setups
Visual stack status system that instantly communicates market health through an intuitive color-coded display showing how many MAs are below price
The script helps traders make more informed decisions by quantifying the historical reliability of different moving averages while providing real-time analysis of MA interactions with price. This systematic approach moves beyond simple MA crossovers to identify higher probability trading opportunities.

Volume Footprint POC for Every CandleCalculating and plotting the Point of Control (POC) for every candle on a volume footprint chart can provide valuable insights for traders. Here are some interpretations and uses of this information:
1. Identify Key Price Levels
Highest Traded Volume: The POC represents the price level with the highest traded volume for each candle. This level often acts as a significant support or resistance level.
Confluence Zones: When multiple POCs align at similar price levels over several candles, it indicates strong support or resistance zones.
2. Gauge Market Sentiment
Buyer and Seller Activity: High volume at certain price levels can indicate where buyers and sellers are most active. A rising POC suggests stronger buying activity, while a falling POC suggests stronger selling activity.
Volume Profile: Analyzing the volume profile helps in understanding the distribution of traded volume across different price levels, providing insights into market sentiment and potential reversals.
3. Spot Trends and Reversals
Trend Continuation: Consistent upward or downward shifts in POC levels can indicate a trend continuation. Traders can use this information to stay in trending positions.
Reversal Signals: A sudden change in the POC direction may signal a potential reversal. This can be used to take profits or enter new positions.
4. Intraday Trading Strategies
Short-Term Trading: Intraday traders can use the POC to make informed decisions on entry and exit points. For example, buying near the POC during an uptrend or selling near the POC during a downtrend.
Scalping Opportunities: High-frequency traders can use shifts in the POC to scalp small profits from price movements around these key levels.
5. Volume-Based Indicators
Confirmation of Other Indicators: The POC can be used in conjunction with other technical indicators (e.g., moving averages, RSI) to confirm signals and improve trading accuracy.
Support and Resistance: Combining the POC with traditional support and resistance levels can provide a more comprehensive view of the market dynamics.
In summary, the Point of Control (POC) is a valuable tool for traders to understand market behavior, identify key levels, and make more informed trading decisions. If you have specific questions or need further details on how to use this information in your trading strategy, feel free to ask! 😊
BTC-SPX Momentum Gauge + EMA SignalHere's an explanation of the market dynamics and signal benefits of this script:
Momentum and Sentiment Indicator:
The script uses the momentum of the S&P 500 to change the chart's background color, providing a quick visual cue of market sentiment. Green indicates potential bullish momentum in the broader market, while red suggests bearish momentum. This can help traders gauge overall market direction at a glance.
Bitcoin Trend Analysis:
By plotting the scaled TEMA of Bitcoin (BTC), traders can see how Bitcoin's trend correlates or diverges from the current asset being analyzed. Since Bitcoin is often viewed as a hedge against traditional financial systems or inflation, its trend can signal broader economic shifts or investor sentiment towards alternative investments.
Dual Trend Confirmation:
The script offers two trend lines: one for Bitcoin and one for the current ticker. When these lines move in tandem, it might indicate a strong market trend across both traditional and crypto markets. Divergence between these lines can highlight potential market anomalies or opportunities for arbitrage or hedging.
Smoothness vs. Reactivity:
The use of TEMA for Bitcoin provides a smoother signal than a simple moving average, reducing lag while still reacting to price changes. This can be particularly useful for identifying longer-term trends in Bitcoin's volatile market. The 20-period EMA for the current ticker, on the other hand, gives a quicker response to price changes in the asset you're directly trading.
Cross-Asset Correlation:
By overlaying Bitcoin's trend on another asset's chart, traders can analyze how these markets might influence each other. For instance, if Bitcoin is in an uptrend while a traditional asset is declining, it might suggest capital rotation into cryptocurrencies.
Trading Signals:
Crossovers or divergences between the TEMA of Bitcoin and the EMA of the current ticker could be used as signals for entry or exit points. For example, if the BTC TEMA crosses above the current ticker's EMA, it might suggest a shift towards crypto assets.
Risk Management:
The visual cues from the background color and moving averages can aid in risk management. For example, trading in the direction of the momentum indicated by the background color might be seen as going with the market flow, potentially reducing risk.
Macro-Economic Insights:
The relationship between Bitcoin and traditional markets can offer insights into macroeconomic conditions, particularly related to inflation, monetary policy, and investor sentiment towards fiat currencies.
Headwind and tailwind:
Currently BTC correlated trade instruments experience headwind or tailwind from the broader market. This indicator lets the user see it to help their trade decision process.
Additional Statement:
As the market realizes the dangers of the fiat that its construct is built upon and evolves and migrates into stable money, incorruptible by inflation, this indicator will reveal the external influence of that corruptible and the internal influence of the incorruptible; having diminishing returns as the rise of stable money overtakes the treasuries of the fiat construct.

SCE Price Action SuiteThis is an indicator designed to use past market data to mark key price action levels as well as provide a different kind of insight. There are 8 different features in the script that users can turn on and off. This description will go in depth on all 8 with chart examples.
#1 Absorption Zones
I defined Absorption Zones as follows.
//----------------------------------------------
//---------------Absorption---------------------
//----------------------------------------------
box absorptionBox = na
absorptionBar = ta.highest(bodySize, absorptionLkb)
bsab = ta.barssince(bool(ta.change(absorptionBar)))
if bsab == 0 and upBar and showAbsorption
absorptionBox := box.new(left = bar_index - 1, top = close, right = bar_index + az_strcuture, bottom = open, border_color = color.rgb(0, 80, 75), border_width = boxLineSize, bgcolor = color.rgb(0, 80, 75))
absorptionBox
else if bsab == 0 and downBar and showAbsorption
absorptionBox := box.new(left = bar_index - 1, top = close, right = bar_index + az_strcuture, bottom = open, border_color = color.rgb(105, 15, 15), border_width = boxLineSize, bgcolor = color.rgb(105, 15, 15))
absorptionBox
What this means is that absorption bars are defined as the bars with the largest bodies over a selected lookback period. Those large bodies represent areas where price may react. I was inspired by the concept of a Fair Value Gap for this concept. In that body price may enter to be a point of support or resistance, market participants get “absorbed” in the area so price can continue in whichever direction.
#2 Candle Wick Theory/Strategy
I defined Candle Wick Theory/Strategy as follows.
//----------------------------------------------
//---------------Candle Wick--------------------
//----------------------------------------------
highWick = upBar ? high - close : downBar ? high - open : na
lowWick = upBar ? open - low : downBar ? close - low : na
upWick = upBar ? close + highWick : downBar ? open + highWick : na
downWick = upBar ? open - lowWick : downBar ? close - lowWick : na
downDelivery = upBar and downBar and high > upWick and highWick > lowWick and totalSize > totalSize and barstate.isconfirmed and session.ismarket
upDelivery = downBar and upBar and low < downWick and highWick < lowWick and totalSize > totalSize and barstate.isconfirmed and session.ismarket
line lG = na
line lE = na
line lR = na
bodyMidpoint = math.abs(body) / 2
upWickMidpoint = math.abs(upWickSize) / 2
downWickkMidpoint = math.abs(downWickSize) / 2
if upDelivery and showCdTheory
cpE = chart.point.new(time, bar_index - 1, downWickkMidpoint)
cpE2 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + bl, downWickkMidpoint)
cpG = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + bl, downWickkMidpoint * (1 + tp))
cpR = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + bl, downWickkMidpoint * (1 - sl))
cpG1 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index - 1, downWickkMidpoint * (1 + tp))
cpR1 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index - 1, downWickkMidpoint * (1 - sl))
lG := line.new(cpG1, cpG, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.green, line.style_solid, 1)

lR := line.new(cpR1, cpR, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.red, line.style_solid, 1)
lR
else if downDelivery and showCdTheory
cpE = chart.point.new(time, bar_index - 1, upWickMidpoint)
cpE2 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + bl, upWickMidpoint)
cpG = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + bl, upWickMidpoint * (1 - tp))
cpR = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + bl, upWickMidpoint * (1 + sl))
cpG1 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index - 1, upWickMidpoint * (1 - tp))

lR := line.new(cpR1, cpR, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.red, line.style_solid, 1)
lR
First I get the size of the wicks for the top and bottoms of the candles. This depends on if the bar is red or green. If the bar is green the wick is the high minus the close, if red the high minus the open, and so on. Next, the script defines the upper and lower bounds of the wicks for further comparison. If the candle is green, it's the open price minus the bottom wick. If the candle is red, it's the close price minus the bottom wick, and so on. Next we have the condition for when this strategy is present.
Down delivery:
Occurs when the previous candle is green, the current candle is red, and:
The high of the current candle is above the upper wick of the previous candle.
The size of the current candle's top wick is greater than its bottom wick.
The total size of the previous candle is greater than the total size of the current candle.
The current bar is confirmed (barstate.isconfirmed).
The session is during market hours (session.ismarket).
Up delivery:
Occurs when the previous candle is red, the current candle is green, and:
The low of the current candle is below the lower wick of the previous candle.
The size of the current candle's bottom wick is greater than its top wick.
The total size of the previous candle is greater than the total size of the current candle.
The current bar is confirmed.
The session is during market hours
Then risk is plotted from the percentage that users can input from an ideal entry spot.
#3 Candle Size Theory
I defined Candle Size Theory as follows.
//----------------------------------------------
//---------------Candle displacement------------
//----------------------------------------------
line lECD = na
notableDown = bodySize > bodySize * candle_size_sensitivity and downBar and session.ismarket and barstate.isconfirmed
notableUp = bodySize > bodySize * candle_size_sensitivity and upBar and session.ismarket and barstate.isconfirmed
if notableUp and showCdSizeTheory
cpE = chart.point.new(time, bar_index - 1, close)
cpE2 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + bl_strcuture, close)
lECD := line.new(cpE, cpE2, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.rgb(0, 80, 75), line.style_solid, 3)
lECD
else if notableDown and showCdSizeTheory
cpE = chart.point.new(time, bar_index - 1, close)
cpE2 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + bl_strcuture, close)
lECD := line.new(cpE, cpE2, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.rgb(105, 15, 15), line.style_solid, 3)
lECD
This plots candles that are “notable” or out of the ordinary. Candles that are larger than the last by a value users get to specify. These candles' highs or lows, if they are green or red, act as levels for support or resistance.
#4 Candle Structure Theory
I defined Candle Structure Theory as follows.
//----------------------------------------------
//---------------Structure----------------------
//----------------------------------------------
breakDownStructure = low < low and low < low and high > high and upBar and downBar and upBar and downBar and session.ismarket and barstate.isconfirmed
breakUpStructure = low > low and low > low and high < high and downBar and upBar and downBar and upBar and session.ismarket and barstate.isconfirmed
if breakUpStructure and showStructureTheory
cpE = chart.point.new(time, bar_index - 1, close)
cpE2 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + bl_strcuture, close)
lE := line.new(cpE, cpE2, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.teal, line.style_solid, 3)
lE
else if breakDownStructure and showStructureTheory
cpE = chart.point.new(time, bar_index - 1, open)
cpE2 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + bl_strcuture, open)
lE := line.new(cpE, cpE2, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.red, line.style_solid, 3)
lE
It is a series of candles to create a notable event. 2 lower lows in a row, a lower high, then green bar, red bar, green bar is a structure for a breakdown. 2 higher lows in a row, a higher high, red bar, green bar, red bar for a break up.
#5 Candle Swing Structure Theory
I defined Candle Swing Structure Theory as follows.
//----------------------------------------------
//---------------Swing Structure----------------
//----------------------------------------------
line htb = na
line ltb = na
if totalSize * swing_struct_sense < totalSize and upBar and downBar and high > high and showSwingSturcture and session.ismarket and barstate.isconfirmed
cpS = chart.point.new(time, bar_index - 1, high)
cpE = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + bl_strcuture, high)
htb := line.new(cpS, cpE, xloc.bar_index, color = color.red, style = line.style_dashed)
htb
else if totalSize * swing_struct_sense < totalSize and downBar and upBar and low > low and showSwingSturcture and session.ismarket and barstate.isconfirmed
cpS = chart.point.new(time, bar_index - 1, low)
cpE = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + bl_strcuture, low)
ltb := line.new(cpS, cpE, xloc.bar_index, color = color.teal, style = line.style_dashed)
ltb
A bearish swing structure is defined as the last candle’s total size, times a scalar that the user can input, is less than the current candles. Like a size imbalance. The last bar must be green and this one red. The last high should also be less than this high. For a bullish swing structure the same size imbalance must be present, but we need a red bar then a green bar, and the last low higher than the current low.
#6 Fractal Boxes
I define the Fractal Boxes as follows
//----------------------------------------------
//---------------Fractal Boxes------------------
//----------------------------------------------
box b = na
int indexx = na
if bar_index % (n * 2) == 0 and session.ismarket and showBoxes
b := box.new(left = bar_index, top = topBox, right = bar_index + n, bottom = bottomBox, border_color = color.rgb(105, 15, 15), border_width = boxLineSize, bgcolor = na)
indexx := bar_index + 1
indexx
The idea of this strategy is that the market is fractal. It is considered impossible to be able to tell apart two different time frames from just the chart. So inside the chart there are many many breakouts and breakdowns happening as price bounces around. The boxes are there to give you the view from your timeframe if the market is in a range from a time frame that would be higher than it. Like if we are inside what a larger time frame candle’s range. If we break out or down from this, we might be able to trade it. Users can specify a lookback period and the box is that period’s, as an interval, high and low. I say as an interval because it is plotted every n * 2 bars. So we get a box, price moves, then a new box.
#7 Potential Move Width
I define the Potential Move Width as follows
//----------------------------------------------
//---------------Move width---------------------
//----------------------------------------------
velocity = V(n)
line lC = na
line l = na
line l2 = na
line l3 = na
line l4 = na
line l5 = na
line l6 = na
line l7 = na
line l8 = na
line lGFractal = na
line lRFractal = na
cp2 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close + velocity)
cp3 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close - velocity)
cp4 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close + velocity * 5)
cp5 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close - velocity * 5)
cp6 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close + velocity * 10)
cp7 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close - velocity * 10)
cp8 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close + velocity * 15)
cp9 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close - velocity * 15)
cpG = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close + R)
cpR = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close - R)
if ((bar_index + n) * 2 - bar_index) % n == 0 and session.ismarket and barstate.isconfirmed and showPredictionWidtn
cp = chart.point.new(time, bar_index, close)
cpG1 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index, close + R)
cpR1 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index, close - R)
l := line.new(cp, cp2, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.aqua, line.style_solid, 1)
l2 := line.new(cp, cp3, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.aqua, line.style_solid, 1)
l3 := line.new(cp, cp4, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.red, line.style_solid, 1)
l4 := line.new(cp, cp5, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.red, line.style_solid, 1)
l5 := line.new(cp, cp6, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.teal, line.style_solid, 1)
l6 := line.new(cp, cp7, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.teal, line.style_solid, 1)
l7 := line.new(cp, cp8, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.blue, line.style_solid, 1)
l8 := line.new(cp, cp9, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.blue, line.style_solid, 1)
l8
By using the past n bar’s velocity, or directional speed, every n * 2 bars. I can use it to scale the close value and get an estimate for how wide the next moves might be.
#8 Linear regression
//----------------------------------------------
//---------------Linear Regression--------------
//----------------------------------------------
lr = showLR ? ta.linreg(close, n, 0) : na
plot(lr, 'Linear Regression', color.blue)
I used TradingView’s built in linear regression to not reinvent the wheel. This is present to see past market strength of weakness from a different perspective.
User input
Users can control a lot about this script. For the strategy based plots you can enter what you want the risk to be in percentages. So the default 0.01 is 1%. You can also control how far forward the line goes.
Look back at where it is needed as well as line width for the Fractal Boxes are controllable. Also users can check on and off what they would like to see on the charts.
No indicator is 100% reliable, do not follow this one blindly. I encourage traders to make their own decisions and not trade solely based on technical indicators. I encourage constructive criticism in the comments below. Thank you.

Quasimodo PatternWhat is a Quasimodo Pattern?
A Quasimodo Pattern is a chart pattern traders look for to predict possible price reversals in the market:
- Bullish Quasimodo: Signals a possible price increase (buying opportunity).
- Bearish Quasimodo: Signals a potential price decrease (selling opportunity).
How the Script Works
1. Bullish Quasimodo:
- Checks if the price pattern shows signs of a potential upward movement:
- The current low price is higher than a previous price point (suggesting fair value gap).
- The previous candle closed higher than it opened (bullish candle).
- The candle before that closed lower than it opened (bearish candle).
2. Bearish Quasimodo:
- Looks for signs of a downward movement:
- The current high price is lower than a previous price point (suggesting fair value gap).
- The previous candle closed lower than it opened (bearish candle).
- The candle before that closed higher than it opened (bullish candle).
Visual Indicators
- Yellow Candles: Indicate a bullish Quasimodo pattern.
- Pink Candles: Indicate a bearish Quasimodo pattern.
Alerts
If a Quasimodo pattern is detected, the script sends an alert:
- The alert says: "A Quasimodo Pattern has appeared!"
Purpose
Traders can use this tool to quickly spot potential trend changes without manually analyzing every chart, saving time and improving decision-making for trades.
Multi Timeframe Market Formation [LuxAlgo]The Multi Timeframe Market Formation tool allows traders to analyze up to 6 different timeframes simultaneously to discover their current formation, S/R levels and their degree of synchronization with the current chart timeframe. Multi timeframe analysis made easy.
🔶 USAGE
By default, the tool displays the chart's timeframe formation plus up to 5 other formations on timeframes higher than the one in the chart.
When the chart formation is synchronized with any enabled timeframe formation, the tool displays labels and a trailing channel, it uses a gradient by default, so the more timeframes are synchronized, the more visible the labels and the trailing channel are.
All timeframes enabled in the settings panel must be higher than the chart timeframe, otherwise the tool will display an error message.
🔹 Formations
A formation is a market structure defined by a lower and an upper boundary (also known as support & resistance).
Each formation has a different symbol and color to identify it at a glance.
It helps traders to know the current market behavior and the tool displays up to 5 of them.
BULLISH (green ▲): higher high and higher low
BEARISH (red ▼): lower high and lower low
CONTRACTION (orange ◀): lower high and higher low
EXPANSION (blue ▶): higher high and lower low
SIDEWAYS (yellow ◀): Any that does not fit with the others
🔹 Multi Timeframe Formations
The tool displays up to 6 different timeframe formations, the chart timeframe plus 5 more configurable from the settings panel.
Each of them has an upper and lower limit, a timeframe, a color and an icon.
If a bound level is shared by more than one formation, the timeframes and symbols are displayed on the same line.
These are significant levels shared by different timeframes and traders need to be aware of them.
🔹 Sync With Chart Timeframe
If the current formation on the chart timeframe is in sync with any of the timeframes enabled in the settings panel, the tool will display this on the chart.
The more timeframes are in sync, the more they are visible, providing a clear visual representation of the common market behavior on multiple timeframes at the same time.
🔶 SETTINGS
Formation size: Size of market formations on the chart timeframe
🔹 Timeframes
TF1 to TF5: Activate/deactivate timeframe, set size of market formation and activate/deactivate high and low levels
🔹 Style
Show Labels: Enable/Disable Timeframe Sync Labels
Transparency Gradient: Enable/Disable Transparency Gradient
Show Trailing Channel | Multiplier: Enable/Disable Trailing Channel and set multiplier

Enhanced SPX and BTC Overlay with EMASPX-BTC Momentum Gauge and EMA Cross Indicator
Thorough Analysis:
• Combined Overlay (Green/Red Line):
o Function: Plots a wide line over the price chart, representing a composite of SPX and BTC dynamics adjusted by volume data.
o Color Coding:
Green: Indicates bullish conditions when the combined value exceeds its 10-period SMA and Bitcoin volume increases.
Red: Signals bearish conditions when the combined value drops below its 10-period SMA and Bitcoin volume decreases.
o Line Characteristics:
Width: Set at 8 for high visibility.
Transparency: 86% for both colors to overlay without obscuring candlesticks.
Scaling: Uses a factor of 0.02446 to amplify movements, making trend changes more noticeable.
• Continuous Bright Red and Green Lines:
o 20-period EMA of Current Ticker (Red):
Purpose: Acts as a medium-term trend indicator, smoothing price data to reflect the asset's general direction over time.
Color: Bright red for easy identification.
Transparency: 60% to keep it visible but not overpowering.
o 5-period EMA of BTC (Green):
Purpose: Provides insights into short-term Bitcoin momentum, capturing rapid changes in market sentiment.
Color: Bright green to distinguish from the red EMA.
Transparency: 30% for high visibility against price movements.
Detailed Analysis of the EMA Cross:
• Crossing Points:
o Bullish Crossover:
Occurs when the 5-period BTC EMA (green) moves above the 20-period EMA of the current ticker (red).
Suggests that Bitcoin's short-term momentum is gaining strength relative to the asset's medium-term trend, potentially signaling an upcoming uptrend or strengthening of an existing one.
o Bearish Crossover:
When the green line falls below the red, it indicates that Bitcoin's immediate momentum is weakening compared to the asset's medium-term trend, which might precede a downtrend or confirm one.
• Early Trade Signals:
o Entry/Exit Points:
These crossovers can guide traders in making timely decisions to enter or exit trades, especially when corroborated by the combined overlay's color.
o Confirmation:
EMA crossovers can confirm trends indicated by the combined overlay. For example, a bullish crossover with a green combined line could validate a buying opportunity.
o Volatility Insights:
The rapid shifts in Bitcoin's 5-period EMA highlight potential volatility spikes, offering an additional layer of market analysis, particularly useful in volatile markets.
• Strategic Use:
o Multi-Market Insight: The script integrates data from both traditional (SPX) and crypto (BTC) markets, allowing for a more comprehensive analysis of market conditions.
o Decision-Making: Provides traders with visual cues for market sentiment, trend direction, and potential reversals, enhancing strategic trading decisions.
o Trend Confirmation: The combination of EMA crossovers and the overlay's color changes offers a multi-faceted approach to trend confirmation or divergence.
In Summary:
• This script merges elements of traditional stock market analysis with cryptocurrency dynamics, utilizing color changes, line thickness, and EMA crossovers to visually communicate market conditions, offering traders a robust tool for analyzing and acting on market movements.
Dominan BreakPlots an arrow what dominan got break. Dominan is a bar which high is higher than high of the next x bars and low is lower than low of the next x bars. So, next x bars are completely in range of that dominan bar.

Enhanced Retail vs Institutional ActivityThis script highlights market activity in real-time, making it easier to infer the type of market participants driving price and volume changes.
Here’s a list of what the script analyzes:
Volume:
Current volume of the candle.
Moving average of volume over a specified number of periods.
Volume spikes: Current volume compared to a threshold multiple of the moving average.
Price Movement:
Percentage change in price between the current and previous candle.
Identifies significant price changes based on a user-defined threshold.
Institutional Activity:
High volume spikes combined with significant price movements.
Retail Activity:
Periods without volume spikes or significant price changes.
VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price):
The average traded price over a specified lookback period, weighted by volume, used as a benchmark.
Market Context Visualization:
Background colors to differentiate institutional (red) and retail (green) activity.
Overlays for:
-Volume bars.
-Average volume line.
-VWAP line.
In summary:
Red = Institutional activity: High volume + significant price change.
Green = Retail activity: Low volume or insignificant price change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Analysis Explanation:
I’m forecasting that Bitcoin will retest its November 12th low (~$85,098.75) around January 20th, 2025, where the horizontal support line intersects with the downtrend line. This conclusion is based on the following:
Trend Analysis:
The chart shows a clear downtrend with price respecting the descending trendline.
The intersection of the horizontal support and the downtrend line on January 20th indicates a confluence point where price action may gravitate.
Volume and Activity Insights:
Using the Retail vs Institutional Activity indicator, the chart highlights periods dominated by institutional (red background) or retail (green background) activity.
Current price action is in a green zone, suggesting predominantly retail participation with lower volume and insignificant price movements.
Retail vs Institutional Dynamics:
Institutional activity (red zones) aligns with significant price movements and volume spikes, often marking key turning points or trends.
The recent green retail-dominated periods suggest a lack of strong momentum, which may lead to continued price decline until institutions re-enter around the confluence area.
Volume Observations:
Volume remains relatively low during the current retail phase, indicating weak buying pressure.
A potential surge in institutional activity (red zones) near the support level could trigger a rebound or breakdown.
I expect Bitcoin’s price to drop further and test the November 12th low near $85,098.75 on January 20th, 2025. This projection is supported by the convergence of the downtrend line and horizontal support, low retail-driven volume, and historical institutional activity patterns observed using the "Retail vs Institutional Activity" indicator.
Elephant Bars
**Elephant Bars Indicator**
This indicator identifies and highlights candlesticks that are significantly larger than the recent average candlestick size. It helps traders quickly spot strong price movements.
- **Percentage Threshold:** The candlestick must be this much larger than the average of the last 5 candles (default is 50%).
- **Body Percentage Threshold:** The candle body must be at least this percentage of the total candle size (default is 80%).
- **Border Color:** Sets the color of the highlighted candle's border.
- **Border Thickness:** Sets the thickness of the border around the highlighted candle.
**How It Works:**
1. The script calculates the size of the current candlestick and its body.
2. It computes the average size of the last 5 candlesticks.
3. The indicator highlights candles that are both significantly larger than the average size and have a body that is a substantial portion of the total candle size.
This indicator is particularly useful for identifying potential breakout or reversal points, as large candlesticks often signify strong market sentiment.

The Curved Market Structure [BigBeluga]Curved Market Structure
The Curved Market Structure indicator offers an innovative twist on traditional market structure tools by using curved lines instead of horizontal ones, enabling faster breakout detection for traders.
🔵Key Features:
Curved Market Structure Levels: The indicator identifies high and low pivots and plots curved lines connecting these points, adapting to market dynamics and providing a more intuitive view of potential breakout zones.
Breakout Detection: Breakouts above or below the curved levels are marked with triangle symbols (▲ or ▼), making it easy to spot critical price movements.
Dynamic Target Levels: After a breakout, the indicator plots three target levels, which serve as potential price objectives. Each target is marked with a number and a star (e.g., 1★) upon being reached.
Customizable Line Length and Angle: Users can adjust the length and angle of the curved lines to fit their trading style and timeframe, making the tool versatile and adaptable.
Market Structure Trend Filtering: To maintain a clean chart, the indicator plots curved levels only from high pivots during uptrends and low pivots during downtrends.
🔵How It Works:
The indicator identifies high and low pivots using user-defined parameters (left and right bars).
Curved lines are drawn from these pivot points, showing the structure of the market and potential breakout zones.
When a breakout occurs, the indicator highlights the direction with triangle symbols and dynamically plots three price targets.
Upon reaching these targets, the level is marked with its respective number and a star, helping traders track price progression effectively.
The lines and targets are adjusted based on market conditions, ensuring real-time relevance and accuracy.
🔵Use Cases:
Spotting key breakout zones to identify entry and exit points more effectively.
Setting dynamic target levels for take-profit or stop-loss planning.
Filtering market noise and maintaining a cleaner chart while analyzing trends.
Enhancing traditional market structure analysis with an intuitive curved visualization.
This indicator is ideal for traders who want a modern, dynamic, and visually appealing way to track market structure and breakouts while maintaining chart clarity.
ENIGMA Signals with Retests Select higher Time FrameENIGMA Signals with Retests – Script Description
The "ENIGMA Signals with Retests" script is a unique indicator designed for traders who prefer precision trading based on price action retests of key levels derived from higher timeframes. This tool is ideal for those employing multi-timeframe analysis strategies, helping them detect high-probability trade entries when the price interacts with significant support and resistance levels.
What Does This Script Do?
This indicator identifies key levels from a higher timeframe selected by the user (e.g., 4-hour or daily), then tracks price action on lower timeframes to provide actionable buy and sell signals when the price retests these levels. It visually plots the key levels on the chart and triggers alerts for potential trade opportunities when conditions are met.
How It Works
Key Level Detection:
The script uses custom functions to detect recent swing highs and swing lows on the selected higher timeframe (such as 4H or Daily). These levels represent potential areas of support and resistance where price reactions are likely to occur.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
The indicator leverages the request.security() function to retrieve price data from the user-defined higher timeframe and plots horizontal lines on the chart for the most recent swing highs and lows.
Retest-Based Signals:
Once the key levels are plotted, the script continuously monitors the price on the lower timeframe:
A Buy Signal is triggered when the price closes below a key high level and then moves back above it, indicating a potential bullish retest.
A Sell Signal is triggered when the price closes above a key low level and then moves back below it, indicating a potential bearish retest.
These retest signals are displayed as green and red arrows on the chart, helping traders identify optimal entry points.
Alerts for Retests:
The script includes built-in alert conditions that notify traders when a valid retest signal occurs. This allows traders to react promptly without constantly monitoring the chart.
How to Use the Script
Select Your Key Timeframe:
From the input settings, choose a higher timeframe that suits your trading style (e.g., 4H for intraday trading or Daily for swing trading).
Adjust Visual Preferences:
Customize the line style (solid, dashed, or dotted) and length of the plotted levels.
Toggle labels for the levels on or off as per your preference.
Trade Execution:
Once a retest signal appears on the lower timeframe, consider entering a trade in the direction of the signal. The buy signal suggests a potential long entry, while the sell signal indicates a potential short entry.
Set Alerts:
Use the alert conditions provided to get notified whenever a valid retest occurs. This helps in reducing screen time and improving trading efficiency.
Underlying Concepts
This script is grounded in the principles of support and resistance, retests, and breakout trading. By focusing on multi-timeframe key levels, it aligns with widely used trading concepts like:
Breakout and Retest: Entering trades after a confirmed breakout and successful retest of a significant level.
Swing Highs and Lows: Recognizing swing points to identify strong price reaction zones.
Multi-Timeframe Confluence: Enhancing trade probability by ensuring that the signals on lower timeframes correspond with key levels from higher timeframes.
Why This Script Is Unique
Unlike many generic trend-following or scalping indicators, "ENIGMA Signals with Retests" offers:
Precision Signals: It only provides signals when specific retest conditions are met, reducing false signals and noise.
Multi-Timeframe Customization: Users can tailor the higher timeframe to their strategy, making it versatile for various trading styles.
Alert Functionality: Alerts are integrated, allowing traders to stay updated without constantly monitoring the charts.
This script is perfect for traders looking for a systematic way to trade retests of key levels across multiple timeframes. Whether you're a scalper, day trader, or swing trader, "ENIGMA Signals with Retests" can help improve your precision and timing in the market.
