ICT Essentials [LDT]ICT Essentials
Overview
ICT Essentials is an all-in-one trading utility built to create a natural and efficient workflow for ICT-based traders.
Every component has been designed to integrate seamlessly and update dynamically across timeframes.
The indicator focuses on clarity, performance and customization, allowing traders to tailor every part of their trading experience.
Equal Highs & Lows
This feature automatically detects and marks Equal Highs (EQH) and Equal Lows (EQL) with full control over visuals and behavior.
Users can customize line colors, widths, and styles, label size, color, background transparency and text offset.
The logic uses an optimized scanning and caching system that maintains smooth performance even on higher timeframes.
It provides a precise and adaptive way to identify structural liquidity points whilst keeping the chart clean and readable.
Killzones & Session Pivots
Plots the main trading sessions such as Asia, London and New York (AM, Lunch, PM) with full flexibility and styling options.
Each session can be enabled or disabled individually, with its own color, transparency and label preferences.
Session highs and lows are automatically tracked and plotted as pivots with extension modes like Until Mitigated or Past Mitigation.
This system gives traders the ability to organize market sessions exactly how they prefer whilst keeping the chart consistent and efficient.
Daily Pivots and Tier System
Alongside session pivots, the script tracks daily highs and lows to provide a broader structural view of price. These pivots are stored and displayed on the chart with their appearance updating automatically when price interacts with them.
The system includes a unique tier-based visibility filter that maintains a clean chart by preventing duplicate or overlapping pivots. Recent daily pivots are cached and compared to session pivots and when two levels fall within a defined proximity, the redundant one is automatically hidden. This creates a clear hierarchy of daily and session levels, keeping the most relevant structure visible whilst removing noise.
All aspects of the daily pivot system are fully customizable, including the number of tracked pivots, color, style settings and how mitigated levels are handled. The caching and filtering logic ensures smooth performance and a visually organized workspace even as the data updates in real time.
Key Times
Allows up to five custom key time markers such as the Midnight Open, 6:00 AM or 10:00 AM.
Each marker can be fully customized with its own text, color, line style and thickness.
This makes it simple to visualize key reaction points that align with each traders timing model.
Higher Timeframe Candles
Displays higher timeframe candles such as 1H, 4H or Daily directly on the active chart to provide context without switching views.
Users can customize body, wick and border colors, along with adding optional trace lines for the open, close, high and low and can also show the countdown timers for remaining candle time.
Adjustable spacing, positioning and label visibility makes the display blend naturally with any trading setup.
This module helps traders connect multiple timeframes visually in a clean and intuitive way.
Watermark
Adds a customizable watermark with title, subtitle and symbol or timeframe information.
Every element can be adjusted for color, size, transparency, alignment and position.
The result is a polished, professional chart layout that adapts to the user's personal style.
Optimization and Design
ICT Essentials is built for performance, using cached arrays and lightweight calculations to maintain responsiveness on all timeframes.
Each feature can be toggled individually to suit the traders focus or system performance.
The script delivers a fluid, customizable and highly optimized trading experience designed to feel natural and effortless in day-to-day use.

Cumulative Volume Delta Profile and Heatmap [BackQuant]Cumulative Volume Delta Profile and Heatmap
A multi-view CVD workstation that measures buying vs selling pressure, renders a price-aligned CVD profile with Point of Control, paints an optional heatmap of delta intensity, and detects classical CVD divergences using pivot logic. Built for reading who is in control, where participation clustered, and when effort is failing to produce result.
What is CVD
Cumulative Volume Delta accumulates the difference between aggressive buys and aggressive sells over time. When CVD rises, buyers are lifting the offer more than sellers are hitting the bid. When CVD falls, the opposite is true. Plotting CVD alongside price helps you judge whether price moves are supported by real participation or are running on fumes.
Core Features
Visual Analysis Components
CVD Columns - Plot of cumulative delta, colored by side, for quick read of participation bias.
CVD Profile - Price-aligned histogram of CVD accumulation using user-set bins. Shows where net initiative clustered.
Split Buy and Sell CVD - Optional two-sided profile that separates positive and negative CVD into distinct wings.
POC - Point of Control - The price level with the highest absolute CVD accumulation, labeled and line-marked.
Heatmap - Semi-transparent blocks behind price that encode CVD intensity across the last N bars.
Divergence Engine - Pivot-based detection of Bearish and Bullish CVD divergences with optional lines and labels.
Stats Panel - Top level metrics: Total CVD, Buy and Sell totals with percentages, Delta Ratio, and current POC price.
How it works
Delta source and sampling
You select an Anchor Timeframe that defines the higher time aggregation for reading the trend of CVD.
The script pulls lower timeframe volume delta and aggregates it to the anchor window. You can let it auto-select the lower timeframe or force a custom one.
CVD is then accumulated bar by bar to form a running total. This plot shows the direction and persistence of initiative.
Profile construction
The recent price range is split into Profile Granularity bins.
As price traverses a bin, the current delta contribution is added to that bin.
If Split Buy and Sell CVD is enabled, positive CVD goes to the right wing and negative CVD to the left wing.
Widths are scaled by each side’s maximum so you can compare distribution shape at a glance.
The Point of Control is the bin with the highest absolute CVD. This marks where initiative concentrated the most.
Heatmap
For each bin, the script computes intensity as absolute CVD relative to the maximum bin value.
Color is derived from the side in control in that bin and shaded by intensity.
Heatmap Length sets how far back the panels extend, highlighting recurring participation zones.
Divergence model
You define pivot sensitivity with Pivot Left and Right .
Bearish divergence triggers when price confirms a higher high while CVD fails to make a higher high within a configurable Delta Tolerance .
Bullish divergence triggers when price confirms a lower low while CVD fails to make a lower low.
On trigger, optional link lines and labels are drawn at the pivots for immediate context.
Key Settings
Delta Source
Anchor Timeframe - Higher TF for the CVD narrative.
Custom Lower TF and Lower Timeframe - Force the sampling TF if desired.
Pivot Logic
Pivot Left and Right - Bars to each side for swing confirmation.
Delta Tolerance - Small allowance to avoid near-miss false positives.
CVD Profile
Show CVD Profile - Toggle profile rendering.
Split Buy and Sell CVD - Two-sided profile for clearer side attribution.
Show Heatmap - Project intensity panels behind price.
Show POC and POC Color - Mark the dominant CVD node.
Profile Granularity - Number of bins across the visible price range.
Profile Offset and Profile Width - Position and scale the profile.
Profile Position - Right, Left, or Current bar alignment.
Visuals
Bullish Div Color and Bearish Div Color - Colors for divergence artifacts.
Show Divergence Lines and Labels - Visualize pivots and annotations.
Plot CVD - Column plot of total CVD.
Show Statistics and Position - Toggle and place the summary table.
Reading the display
CVD columns
Rising CVD confirms buyers are in control. Falling CVD confirms sellers.
Flat or choppy CVD during wide price moves hints at passive or exhausted participation.
CVD profile wings
Thick right wing near a price zone implies heavy buy initiative accumulated there.
Thick left wing implies heavy sell initiative.
POC marks the strongest initiative node. Expect reactions on first touch and rotations around this level when the tape is balanced.
Heatmap
Brighter blocks indicate stronger historical net initiative at that price.
Stacked bright bands form CVD high volume nodes. These often behave like magnets or shelves for future trade.
Divergences
Bearish - Price prints a higher high while CVD fails to do so. Effort is not producing result. Potential fade or pause.
Bullish - Price prints a lower low while CVD fails to do so. Capitulation lacks initiative. Potential bounce or reversal.
Stats panel
Total CVD - Net initiative over the window.
Buy and Sell volume with percentages - Side composition.
Delta Ratio - Buy over Sell. Values above 1 favor buyers, below 1 favor sellers.
POC Price - Current control node for plan and risk.
Workflows
Trend following
Choose an Anchor Timeframe that matches your holding period.
Trade in the direction of CVD slope while price holds above a bullish POC or below a bearish POC.
Use pullbacks to CVD nodes on your profile as entry locations.
Trend weakens when price makes new highs but CVD stalls, or new lows while CVD recovers.
Mean reversion
Look for divergences at or near prior CVD nodes, especially the POC.
Fade tests into thick wings when the side that dominated there now fails to push CVD further.
Target rotations back toward the POC or the opposite wing edge.
Liquidity and execution map
Treat strong wings and heatmap bands as probable passive interest zones.
Expect pauses, partial fills, or flips at these shelves.
Stops make sense beyond the far edge of the active wing supporting your idea.
Alerts included
CVD Bearish Divergence and CVD Bullish Divergence.
Price Cross Above POC and Price Cross Below POC.
Extreme Buy Imbalance and Extreme Sell Imbalance from Delta Ratio.
CVD Turn Bullish and CVD Turn Bearish when net CVD crosses zero.
Price Near POC proximity alert.
Best practices
Use a higher Anchor Timeframe to stabilize the CVD story and a sensible Profile Granularity so wings are readable without clutter.
Keep Split mode on when you want to separate initiative attribution. Turn it off when you prefer a single net profile.
Tune Pivot Left and Right by instrument to avoid overfitting. Larger values find swing divergences. Smaller values find micro fades.
If volume is thin or synthetic for the symbol, CVD will be less reliable. The script will warn if volume is zero.
Trading applications
Context - Confirm or question breakouts with CVD slope.
Location - Build entries at CVD nodes and POC.
Timing - Use divergence and POC crosses for triggers.
Risk - Place stops beyond the opposite wing or outside the POC shelf.
Important notes and limits
This is a price and volume based study. It does not access off-book or venue-level order flow.
CVD profiles are built from the data available on your chart and the chosen lower timeframe sampling.
Like all volume tools, readings can distort during roll periods, holidays, or feed anomalies. Validate on your instrument.
Technical notes
Delta is aggregated from a lower timeframe into an Anchor Timeframe narrative.
Profile bins update in real time. Splitting by side scales each wing independently so both are readable in the same panel.
Divergences are confirmed using standard pivot definitions with user-set tolerances.
All profile drawing uses fixed X offsets so panels and POC do not swim when you scroll.
Quick start
Anchor Timeframe = Daily for intraday context.
Split Buy and Sell CVD = On.
Profile Granularity = 100 to 200, Profile Position = Right, Width to taste.
Pivot Left and Right around 8 to 12 to start, then adapt.
Turn on Heatmap for a fast map of interest bands.
Bottom line
CVD tells you who is doing the lifting. The profile shows where they did it. Divergences tell you when effort stops paying. Put them together and you get a clear read on control, location, and timing for both trend and mean reversion.
GRG/RGR Signal, MA, Ranges and PivotsThis indicator is a combination of several indicators.
It is a combination of two of my indicators which I solely use for trading
1. EMA 10-20-50-200, Pivots and Previous Day/Week/Month range
2. 3/4-Bar GRG / RGR Pattern (Conditional 4th Candle)
You can use them individually if you already have some of them or just use this one. Belive me when I say, this is all you need, along with market structure knowlege and even if you don’t have that, this indicator has been doing wonders for me. This is all I use. I do not use anything else.
**Note - Do checkout the indicators individually as I have added valuable information in the comment section.
It contains the following,
1. 10 EMA/SMA - configurable
2. 20 EMA/SMA - configurable
3. 50 EMA/SMA - configurable
4. 200 EMA/SMA - configurable
5. Previous Day's Range
6. Previous Week's Range
7. Previous Month's Range
8. Pivots
9. Buy Sell Signal
The Moving Averages
It is a very important combination and using it correctly with price action will strengthen your entries and exits.
The ema's or sma's added are the most powerful ones and they do definitely act as support and resistance.
The Daily/Weekly/Monthly Ranges
The Daily/Weekly/Monthly ranges are extremely important for any trader and should be used for targets and reversals.
Pivots
Pivots can provide support and resistance level. R5 and S5 can be used to check for over stretched conditions. You can customise them however you like. It is a full pivot indicator.
It is defaulted to show R5 and S5 only to reduce noise in the chart but it can be customised.
The 3/4 RGR or GRG Signal Generator
Combined with a 3/4 RGR or GRG setup can be all a trader needs.
You don't need complex strategies and SMC concepts to trade. Simple EMAs, ranges and RGR/GRG setup is the most winning combination.
This indicator can be used to identify the Green-Red-Green or Red-Green-Red pattern.
It is a price action indicator where a price action which identifies the defeat of buyers and sellers.
If the buyers comprehensively defeat the sellers then the price moves up and if the sellers defeat the buyers then the price moves down.
In my trading experience this is what defines the price movement.
It is a 3 or 4 candle pattern, beyond that i.e, 5 or more candles could mean a very sideways market and unnecessary signal generation.
How does it work?
Upside/Green signal
1. Say candle 1 is Green, which means buyers stepped in, then candle 2 is Red or a Doji, that means sellers brought the price down. Then if candle 3 is forming to be Green and breaks the closing of the 1st candle and opening of the 2nd candle, then a green arrow will appear and that is the place where you want to take your trade.
2. Here the buyers defeated the sellers.
3. Sometimes candle 3 falls short but candle 4 breaks candle 1's closing and candle 2's opening price. We can enter on candle 4.
4. Important - We need to enter the trade as soon as the price moves above the candle 1 and 2's body and should not wait for the 3rd or 4th candle to close. Ignore wicks.
5. But for a more optimised entry I have added an option to use candle’s highs and lows instead of open and close. This reduces lot of noise and provides us with more precise entry. This setting is turned on by default.
6. I have restricted it to 4 candles and that is all that is needed. More than that is a longer sideways market.
7. I call it the +-+ or GRG pattern or Green-Red-Green or Buyer-Seller-Buyer or Seller defeated or just Buyer pattern.
8. Stop loss can be candle 2's mid for safe traders (that includes me) or candle 2's body low for risky traders.
9. Back testing suggests that body low will be useless and result in more points in loss because for the bigger move this point will not be touched, so why not get out faster.
Downside/Red signal
1. Say candle 1 is Red, which means sellers stepped in, then candle 2 is Green or a Doji, that means buyers took the price up. Then if candle 3 is forming to be Red and breaks the closing of the 1st candle and opening of the 2nd candle then a Red arrow will appear and that is the place where you want to take your trade.
2. Sometimes candle 3 falls short but candle 4 breaks candle 1's closing and candle 2's opening price. We can enter on candle 4.
3. We need to enter the trade as soon as the price moves below the candle 1 and 2's body and should not wait for the 3rd or 4th candle to close.
4. But for a more optimised entry I have added an option to use candle’s highs and lows instead of open and close. This reduces lot of noise and provides us with more precise entry. This setting is turned on by default.
5. I have restricted it to 4 candles and that is all that is needed. More than that is a longer sideways market.
6. I call it the -+- or RGR pattern or Red-Green-Red or Seller-Buyer-Seller or Buyer defeated or just Seller pattern.
7. Stop loss can be candle 2's mid for safe traders ( that includes me) or candle 2's body high for risky traders.
8. Back testing suggests that body high will be useless and result in more points in loss because for the bigger move this point will not be touched, so why not get out faster.
Important Settings
1. Include 4th Candle Confirmation - You can enable or disable the 4th candle signal to avoid the noise, but at times I have noticed that the 4th candle gives a very strong signal or I can say that the strong signal falls on the 4th candle. This is mostly a coincidence.
2. Bars to check (default 10) - You can also configure how many previous bars should the signal be generated for. 10 to 30 is good enough. To backtest increase it to 2000 or 5000 for example.
3. Use Candle High/Low for confirmation instead of Candle Open/Close - More optimized entry and noise reduction. This option is now defaulted to false.
4. Show Green-Red-Green (bull) signals - Show only bull entries. Useful when I have a predefined view i.e, I know market is going to go up today.
5. Show Red-Green-Red (bear) signals - Show only bear entries. Useful when I have a predefined view i.e, I know market is going to go down today.
6. 3rd candle should be a Strong candle before considering 4th candle - This will enforce additional logic in 4 candle setup that the 3rd candle is the candle in our direction of breakout. This means something like GRGG is mandatory, which is still the default behaviour. If disabled, the 3rd candle can be any candle and 4th candle will act as our breakout candle. This behaviour has led to breakouts and breakdowns as times, hence I added this as a separate feature. Vice-versa for a RGGR.
For a 4 candle setup till now we were expecting GRGG or RGRR but we can let the system ignore the 3rd candle completely if needed.
This will result in additional signals.
7. Three intraday ranges added for index and stock traders - 1 min, 5 min and 15 min ranges will be displayed. These are disabled by default except 15 min. These are very important ranges and in sideways days the price will usually move within the 15 min. A breakout of this range and a positive signal can be a very powerful setup.
Safe traders can avoid taking a trade in this range as it can lead to fakeouts.
The line style, width, color and opacity are configurable.
Pointers/Golden Rules
1. If after taking the trade, the next candle moves in your direction and closes strong bullish or bearish, then move SL to break even and after that you can trail it.
2. If a upside trade hits SL and immediately a down side trade signal is generated on the next candle then take it. Vice versa is true.
3. Trades need to be taken on previous 2 candle's body high or low combined and not the wicks.
4. The most losses a trader takes is on a sideways day and because in our strategy the stop loss is so small that even on a sideways day we'll get out with a little profit or worst break even.
5. Hold trades for longer targets and don't panic.
6. If last 3-4 days have been sideways then there is a good probability that today will be trending so we can hold our trade for longer targets. Inverse is true when the market has been trending for 2-3 days then volatility followed by sideways is coming (DOW theory). Target to hold the trade for whole day and not exit till the day closes.
7. In general avoid trading in the middle of the day for index and stocks. Divide the day into 3 parts and avoid the middle.
8. Use Support/Resistance, 10, 20, 50, 200 EMA/SMA, Gaps, Whole/Round numbers(very imp) for identifying targets.
9. Trail your SL.
10. For indexes I would use 5 min and 15 min timeframe and at times 10 mins.
11. For commodities and crypto we can use higher timeframe as well. Look for signals during volatile time durations and avoid trading the whole day. Signal usually gives good targets on those times.
12. If a GRG or RGR pattern appears on a daily timeframe then this is our time to go big.
13. Minimum Risk to Reward should be 1:2 and for longer targets can be 1:4 to 1:10.
14. Trade with small lot size. Money management will happen automatically.
15. With small lot size and correct Risk-Reward we can be very profitable. Don't trade with big lot size.
16. Stay in the market for longer and collect points not money.
17. Very imp - Watch market and learn to generate a market view.
18. Very imp - Only 3 type of candles are needed in trading -
Strong Bullish (Big Green candle), Strong Bearish (Big Red candle),
Hammer (it is Strong Bullish), Inverse Hammer (it is Strong Bearish)
and Doji (indecision or confusion).
If on daily timeframe I see Strong Bullish candle previous day then I am biased to the upside the next day, if I see Strong Bearish candle the previous day then I am biased to the downside the next day, if I see Doji on the previous day then I am cautious the next day, if there are back to back Dojis forming in daily or weekly then I am preparing for big move so time to go big once I get the signal.
19. Most Important Candlestick pattern - Bullish and Bearish Engulfing
20. The only Chart patterns I need -
a) Falling Wedge Bullish Pattern Uptrend or Bull Flag - Buying - Forming over a couple days for intraday and forming over a couple of weeks for swing
b) Falling Wedge Bullish Pattern Downtrend or Falling Channel - Buying
c) Rising Wedge Bearish Pattern Uptrend or Rising Channel - Selling
d) Rising Wedge Bearish Pattern Downtrend or Bear flag - Selling
e) M and W pattern - Reversal Patterns - They form within the above 4 patterns, usually resulting in the break of trend line
21. How Gaps work -
a) Small Gap up in Uptrend - Market can fill the gap and reverse. The perception is that people are buying. If previous day candle was Strong Bullish then market view is up.
b) Big Gap up in Uptrend - Not news driven - Profit booking will come but may not fill the entire gap
c) Big Gap up in Uptrend - News driven, war related, tax, interest rate - Market can keep going up without stopping.
c) Flat opening in Uptrend - Big chance of market going up. If previous day candle was Strong Bullish then view is upwards, if it was Doji then still upwards.
d) Gap down in Uptrend - Market is surprised. After going down initially it can go up
e) Small Gap down in Downtrend - Market can fill the gap and keep moving down. If previous day candle was Strong Bearish then view is still down.
f) Flat opening in Downtrend - View is down, short today.
g) Big Gap down in Downtrend - Profit booking and foolish buying will come but market view is still down.
h) Gap down with News - Volatility, sideways then down.
22. Go big on bearish days for option traders. Puts are better bought and Calls are better sold.
23. Cluster of green signals can lead to bigger move on the upside and vice versa for red signals.
24. Most of this is what I learned from successful traders (from the top 2%) only the indicator is mine.

Round Numbers (Plotter) v2The *Round Numbers (Plotter) v2* indicator highlights key psychological price levels on the chart — the so-called *round numbers* (e.g. 1.1000 on EURUSD or23,000 on NASDAQ).
These levels often act as **natural support or resistance zones**, where price tends to react, consolidate, or reverse.
Version 2 introduces the concept of **gravitational zones**, which define a price range surrounding each round level — visualizing how price “gravitates” around these equilibrium areas.
---
### 🧩 **Main Features**
* 🔹 **Dynamic round levels:** plotted automatically based on user-defined *step size* (in points or pips).
* 🔹 **Custom step mode:** switch between “Points” (for indices, commodities, crypto) and “Pips” (for Forex pairs).
* 🔹 **Configurable appearance:** color, width, and line style (solid, dashed, dotted).
* 🔹 **Gravitation zones:** optional secondary lines plotted above and below each round level.
* Distance adjustable as a **percentage of the step size** (default = 25%).
* Help visualize “magnet areas” where price tends to slow down or oscillate before crossing a level.
* 🔹 **Optional fill:** softly shaded area between the upper and lower gravitation lines for clearer visualization of each zone.
* You can enable or disable this with the *“Show gravitation fill”* toggle.
* Fill color and transparency fully customizable.
---
### 📈 **Use Cases**
* Identify **psychological support/resistance** levels on any instrument or timeframe.
* Observe **market equilibrium zones** where price tends to cluster or hesitate before continuing.
* Combine with oscillators or volume indicators to confirm reaction strength near round numbers.
* Use the **gravitational zones** to refine stop-loss or take-profit placement near high-impact levels.
---
### 💡 **Notes**
* The indicator does **not repaint** and updates levels dynamically based on the latest price.
* Works on all asset classes: **Forex, Indices, Crypto, Commodities, Stocks.**
* Designed to be **lightweight** — no accumulation of historical objects.
* Combine this with *Round Number Analyzer* for complete analysis of round numbers level
Inside Bar Highlighter by nkChartsOverview:
The Inside Candle Highlighter is a simple yet powerful TradingView indicator designed to identify inside bars (inside candles) on your chart. An inside candle is defined as a candle whose high is lower than the previous candle's high and low is higher than the previous candle's low, meaning it forms entirely within the range of the preceding candle.
Inside candles are commonly interpreted by traders as periods of market consolidation or indecision and often precede breakouts or significant price moves. This indicator highlights these candles directly on your chart, making them easy to spot at a glance.
Features
Detects Inside Candles: Automatically identifies bars that are fully contained within the previous bar’s high-low range.
Confirmed Bar Coloring: Colors the candle after it closes, ensuring no repainting occurs during formation.
Style Tab Customization: Users can adjust the candle color directly from the Style tab, allowing seamless integration with your chart theme.
Clean & Minimal: Only inside candles are highlighted, keeping charts uncluttered.
How Traders Can Use It
Identify Consolidation Zones: Quickly spot periods where the market is contracting.
Prepare for Breakouts: Inside candles often signal an upcoming directional move; traders can plan entry or exit points based on breakouts from the inside candle range.
Combine With Other Indicators: Use alongside trend indicators, volume tools, or support/resistance levels to enhance trade confirmation.
Recommended Use
Works on all timeframes — from intraday charts to daily or weekly charts.
Particularly useful in price action trading, swing trading, and trend-following strategies.
Ideal for traders who want a visual cue for consolidation and potential breakout areas without adding complexity to the chart.
Note: This indicator only highlights inside candles. Interpretation and trading decisions are left to the user.

Market Structure Strategy - Level 1This strategy identifies peaks and valleys (local tops and bottoms) in price to construct a dynamic market structure, labeling Higher Highs (HH), Lower Lows (LL), Higher Lows (HL), and Lower Highs (LH). From this evolving structure, the script determines the dominant market regime, which can be:
Bull (green) – when price forms new highs and maintains a bullish structure, the strategy favors long entries.
Bear (red) – when price forms new lows and confirms a bearish structure, the strategy favors short entries.
Range (brown) – when price fluctuates between recent highs and lows, suggesting sideways conditions where no trades are initiated.
The transition between these regimes depends mainly on four key parameters.
The first parameter controls the lookback period into the past to find the top or bottom.
The second controls the period of the looback to the right of the top or bottom.
The “Entry Margin” parameter determines how much ranging behavior the model will detect before switching regimes.
The 4 parameter select the source to construct the top and bottom, the close the wick, etc.
The user can configure the strategy to run long-only, short-only, or both directions, depending on the market or preference. In addition to the core regime logic, the strategy includes several risk and trade management controls that are featured in all my strategies.
Four oscillators are also integrated into the logic to detect short-term overbought and oversold conditions. These help the strategy avoid entering or exiting a trade when price has already extended too far in one direction, improving timing and potentially reducing false entries and exits. When overbought or oversold are detected, a red or green dot appears on the chart.
The script is designed to be flexible across different assets and timeframes. However, to achieve consistent results, it is important to optimize parameters carefully. A recommended workflow is as follows:
Disable the walk-forward option during the optimization phase.
Optimize the first main parameter while keeping others fixed.
Once a satisfactory value is found, move to the second parameter.
Continue the process for subsequent parameters.
Optionally, repeat the full sequence once more to refine the results.
Finally, activate walk-forward analysis and check the out-of-sample results.
This strategy is published as invite-only with hidden source code. Access may be granted upon request for research or evaluation purposes. It is part of a broader collection of technical analysis strategies I have developed, which focus on regime detection and adaptive trading systems.
There are five levels of strategy complexity and performance in my collection. This script represents a Level 1 strategy, designed as a solid foundation and introduction to the framework. More advanced levels progressively add greater complexity, adaptability, and robustness.
Finally, when multiple strategies are combined under this same framework, the results become more robust and stable. In particular, combining my suite of technical analysis strategies with my macro strategies and alternative data strategies, such as onchain for cryptocurrencies. It creates a multi-layered system that adapts across regimes, timeframes, and market conditions.
FVG Zones with Signals█ OVERVIEW
"FVG Zones with Signals" is a technical analysis tool that identifies Fair Value Gaps (FVG) on the chart and draws customizable zones in the form of boxes. It is ideal for traders using price action and market structure strategies, helping to identify potential imbalance zones and trading opportunities based on breakout and exit signals. With flexible size filter settings, box styles, and signal options, the indicator ensures clarity and precision on the chart.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator is designed to identify potential entry points for trades based on FVG breakouts or retests. For chart clarity, a size filter for FVGs is included, based on a multiplier of the average candle size over a specified period.
Why are FVGs important? FVG zones represent areas of market imbalance, often attracting price back to "fill" the gap. Larger gaps (with a higher size multiplier) have a greater chance of being retested, as they indicate deeper imbalances—leaving more unexecuted orders in those zones, which attracts liquidity. Market makers and institutions often return to these levels to "refresh" liquidity before further moves. However, not every large FVG is retested quickly—in strong trends, smaller imbalances may be ignored, and the location (e.g., near swing highs/lows) is critical for retest probability.
█ FEATURES
- FVG Detection: Identifies bullish and bearish FVGs based on size filters (Candle Size Period and FVG Size Multiplier), with automatic initialization of historical gaps up to 500 candles back.
- Customizable Boxes: Draws FVG boxes with adjustable border colors, background gradients, border styles (solid, dashed, dotted), border widths, and transparency for both the background and the 50% FVG midline.
- Breakout and Exit Signals: Generates "Break" signals (green upward triangle for breakouts above bearish FVG, red downward triangle for breakouts below bullish FVG) and "Exit" signals (circles for exiting the zone), with options to select signal types (Break, Exit, or Both). A break signal causes the box to disappear, leaving a triangle as a trace of the breakout, which may serve as a signal to open a position. Exit signals (circles) may also indicate entry opportunities but require additional confirmation, such as alignment with the main trend.
- Midline: Automatically draws a dashed line at the 50% FVG level with adjustable transparency, aiding in assessing price reactions within the zone.
- Box Limitation: Automatically removes old or inactive FVGs after 500 candles to avoid chart clutter.
- Alerts: Built-in alerts for all signal types, including price and FVG type descriptions.
█ HOW TO USE
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to your TradingView chart via the Pine Editor or Indicators menu.
Configure Settings:
- FVG Settings: Adjust Candle Size Period (default 20) and FVG Size Multiplier (default 1) to filter out small gaps—higher values generate fewer but more significant FVGs.
- Box Settings: Configure colors and styles for bullish (green) and bearish (red) boxes, including background transparency (default 80) and midline transparency.
- Signal Settings: Select signal types (Break, Exit, or Both) in Signal Type. Breakout signals appear after a candle closes outside the zone, while exit signals appear when exiting an FVG without a full breakout.
- Styling: Customize signal colors (green for buy/up, red for sell/down) and shape sizes.
Interpreting Signals:
- Break Up Signal: A green triangle below the bar indicates a breakout above a bearish FVG, suggesting potential continuation of an uptrend.
- Break Down Signal: A red triangle above the bar indicates a breakout below a bullish FVG, suggesting potential continuation of a downtrend.
- Exit Up/Down Signal: A green/red circle indicates an exit from an FVG without a full breakout, which may signal the end of a correction or preparation for a reversal.
- FVG Zones: If the price returns to an FVG and fills the gap, it may indicate equilibrium; an unfilled gap often leads to a retest.
- Use signals in conjunction with other technical analysis tools for confirmation, such as RSI (to identify overbought/oversold conditions) or MACD (to confirm momentum). Analyze FVGs from higher timeframes—these zones act as stronger imbalance levels and carry greater structural significance.
Exit signals (retests without breakouts) tend to be most effective when traded in line with the current trend.
█ APPLICATIONS
- Price Action Trading: Use FVG zones as dynamic support and resistance levels. In an uptrend, look for buying opportunities in bullish FVGs, where price often tests the gap before continuing. Combining with RSI, MACD, or Fibonacci levels enhances the significance of zones.
- Breakout Strategies: Trade based on breakout signals from FVGs. A buy signal after breaking a bearish FVG may indicate a strong upward impulse, especially when supported by a rising MACD or RSI exiting oversold conditions.
Larger FVG gaps (higher multiplier) have a greater chance of retest, as they indicate deeper imbalances.
█ NOTES
- Test the indicator across different timeframes and markets (stocks, forex, crypto) to optimize size filters for your trading style.
- The indicator initializes historical FVGs up to 500 candles back, which may slow loading on longer charts.
- For best results, use on high-liquidity markets where FVGs are more frequently retested.
- In consolidation zones, the indicator may generate more false signals, so additional confirmation is recommended.
Tight Entry Trend Engine Strategy═══════════════════════════════════════
TIGHT ENTRY TREND ENGINE
═══════════════════════════════════════
A breakout-based trend-following system designed to capture explosive
moves by entering at precise resistance/support breakouts with minimal
entry risk and massive profit potential.
⚠️ LOW WIN RATE, HIGH REWARD SYSTEM ⚠️
This is NOT a high win-rate strategy. Expect 25-35% winners, but
when it hits, winners are typically 10X+ larger than losers.
═══════════════════════════════════════
🎯 WHAT THIS SYSTEM DOES
═══════════════════════════════════════
The Tight Entry Trend Engine identifies powerful breakout opportunities
by detecting when price breaks through established trendlines with
confirmation from higher timeframe trends:
1. DYNAMIC TRENDLINE DETECTION (3 BANKS)
• Automatically draws support and resistance trendlines
• 3 separate "banks" capture short-term, medium-term, and long-term levels
• Each bank has configurable parameters (required pivot touch count,
angle limits, lengths)
2. BREAKOUT ENTRY TIMING
• Enters LONG when price breaks ABOVE resistance trendlines
• Enters SHORT when price breaks BELOW support trendlines
• Entry Alert occurs at the exact moment of breakout = "tight entry"
• Stop-loss placed just below/above the broken trendline (configurable)
3. HIGHER TIMEFRAME TREND FILTER
• Uses Hull Moving Average (HMA) on higher timeframe for trend following
• Auto-adjusts HTF based on your chart timeframe
• Optional filters prevent entries against major trend
• Optional "overextension" filter avoids buying parabolic moves
4. VOLATILITY-ADAPTIVE RISK MANAGEMENT
• Stop-loss calculated using Average True Range (ATR)
• Tighter stops = better R:R
• Profit targets adjust dynamically with volatility
• Breakeven stop moves automatically when in profit
• Extended profit targets when far from HTF trend
═══════════════════════════════════════
📊 HOW IT WORKS (METHODOLOGY)
═══════════════════════════════════════
STEP 1: TRENDLINE FORMATION
The system continuously scans for pivot highs and pivot lows to
construct trendlines. You control:
BANK 1 (Short-Term):
- Pivot Length: How many bars to look back for swing points
- Min Touches: How many pivots needed to form a line (default: 3)
- Max Length: How far back lines can reach (default: 180 bars)
- Angle Limits: Maximum steepness allowed for valid trendlines
- Tolerance: How close pivots must align to form horizontal lines
BANK 2 (Medium-Term):
- Slightly longer pivot periods for more significant levels
- Captures medium-term trend structure
- Default Max Length: 200 bars
BANK 3 (Long-Term):
- Focuses on major support/resistance zones
- Often uses horizontal levels (angled lines disabled by default)
- Default Max Length: 300 bars
The system draws RESISTANCE lines (red) above price and SUPPORT
lines (green) below price. These adapt in real-time as new pivots form.
STEP 2: BREAKOUT DETECTION
LONG SIGNALS:
- Price closes above a resistance trendline
- Higher timeframe trend is up (optional filter)
- Price not overextended from HTF trend (optional filter)
- No position currently open
SHORT SIGNALS:
- Price closes below a support trendline
- Higher timeframe trend is down (optional filter)
- Price not overextended from HTF trend (optional filter)
- No position currently open
The "tight" aspect: Because you're entering right at the trendline
break, your stop-loss can be placed very close (just below the
broken resistance for longs), creating exceptional risk/reward ratios.
STEP 3: POSITION SIZING
Choose between:
- Fixed $ Risk Per Trade: Risk same dollar amount every trade
- % Risk Per Trade: Risk percentage of current equity
Position size automatically calculated based on:
- Your risk amount
- Distance to stop-loss (ATR-based)
- Works with stocks, futures, crypto (auto-adjusts for contract multipliers)
STEP 4: EXIT MANAGEMENT
Multiple exit methods working together:
- PROFIT TARGET: Exits when profit reaches 100x your risk
- EXTENDED PROFIT: Earlier exit (80R) when very far from HTF trend
- STOP LOSS: Fixed ATR-based stop below entry
- HTF TREND EXIT: Exits when price crosses below HTF trend with profit
- BREAKEVEN PULLBACK: Exits if profit drops below 0.6R after reaching breakeven
- PARTIAL PROFITS: Optional - take partial profits at specified R-multiple
═══════════════════════════════════════
🔧 KEY COMPONENTS EXPLAINED
═══════════════════════════════════════
HULL MOVING AVERAGE (HMA)
A smoothed moving average that reduces lag compared to traditional
MAs. The system uses HMA on a higher timeframe to determine the
dominant trend direction. You can choose:
- Auto HTF: System picks appropriate HTF based on your chart timeframe
- Manual HTF: You specify the higher timeframe
AVERAGE TRUE RANGE (ATR)
Measures current market volatility. Used for:
- Stop-loss distance (tighter when volatility low)
- Profit targets (larger when volatility high)
- Position sizing (smaller positions in volatile conditions)
- Breakeven trigger distance
TRENDLINE ANGLE FILTERING
Each trendline bank has angle limits to ensure quality:
- Resistance lines: Max downward/upward slope allowed
- Support lines: Max downward/upward slope allowed
- Angles automatically adjust based on current volatility
- Prevents overly steep/unreliable trendlines
SENSITIVITY CONTROL
One master slider adjusts multiple parameters:
- Trendline detection sensitivity
- HTF MA length
- Exit timing
- Auto-adjusts for daily+ timeframes (60% increase)

Uncharted Territory Fibs📘 Uncharted Territory Fibs
Advanced Fibonacci Projection & Confluence Indicator
(Protected Source)
🧭 Overview
Uncharted Territory Fibs is a next-generation Fibonacci projection system designed for identifying high-probability confluence zones when price enters uncharted territory — areas beyond previous highs or lows.
It automatically detects valid swing pivots, determines trend bias, and plots Fibonacci extensions and projections with built-in cluster logic to highlight the single most powerful confluence level.
⚙️ Core Features
Automatic Trend Bias:
Determines direction using either manual Up/Down selection or EMA-based “Auto” bias detection.
Swing-Based Anchoring:
Uses confirmed pivot highs and lows (non-repainting) to define valid swing legs for Fibonacci mapping.
Fibonacci Extensions & Projections:
Extensions: 1.272, 1.618, 2.618, 4.236
Projections (symmetry): 1.0 and 1.618
These levels map both impulse continuation and symmetry targets.
Cluster Engine:
Groups nearby Fibonacci levels within a user-defined tolerance, identifies the zone with the highest confluence, and designates it as the Prime Level.
Secondary targets are spaced apart for cleaner visualization.
Smart Visualization:
Lines are anchored directly to the last confirmed swing pivot.
Fixed-length projection (default 20 bars) ensures levels stay visually stable.
Labels display exact price and ratio type.
Optional price-scale markers and alert triggers.
Alerts Built-In:
“Near Prime Confluence” alert when price approaches key zone.
“Cross Prime Confluence” alert when price breaks through the zone.
🎯 How to Use
Apply on higher-timeframe charts (4H, Daily, or Weekly recommended).
Choose bias mode: Auto, Uptrend, or Downtrend.
Adjust swing sensitivity (pivot left/right bars).
Toggle which Fibonacci ratios to include.
Tune cluster tolerance and spacing to refine precision.
Watch for Prime Confluence zones forming above or below structure — potential reversal or breakout targets.
Set alerts for automated notifications near critical levels.
💡 Why It’s Different
Unlike basic Fibonacci tools that simply project multiple overlapping lines, Uncharted Territory Fibs performs real-time mathematical clustering to isolate the most statistically dense confluence level — simplifying complex multi-leg Fibonacci relationships into a single actionable zone.
The result: fewer lines, higher confidence, and cleaner market structure visualization when price explores new highs or lows.

ÖZKAN's MTF S.M.A.R.T. Flow (Trend + ATR RiskÖZKAN's MTF S.M.A.R.T. Flow (Trend + ATR Risk) is a comprehensive, invite-only tool designed for traders who rely on Multi-Timeframe (MTF) alignment and precise, volatility-based risk management. This indicator combines trend confirmation across four custom timeframes with a built-in Williams %R filter and ATR-derived profit targets to provide high-probability entry alerts.
🔑 Key Features:
* Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Alignment Check:
* The core logic verifies the trend across four customizable timeframes (TF1 to TF4) using a Simple Moving Average (SMA).
* A signal is only generated when a majority (2 or more) of the selected timeframes are aligned (all UP or all DOWN).
* The status of all four TFs is clearly displayed in a dynamic corner table.
* ATR-Based Risk Management & Targets:
* Dynamic Take Profit (TP) Levels: Three TP levels (TP1, TP2, TP3) are calculated based on the Average True Range (ATR) and customizable multipliers (0.5x, 1.0x, 1.5x ATR).
* Entry Zones & Stop Loss: The indicator plots ATR-based Entry Zones and a Simulated Stop Loss (SL) level (1.5x ATR) to visually assist with position sizing and risk definition before entering a trade.
* Filtered Entry Logic:
* Signals are triggered by a Price Crossover/Crossunder of the SMA on the current chart's timeframe.
* Williams %R Filter: An optional filter is integrated to ensure entries occur during exhaustion/oversold (Buy) or overbought (Sell) conditions, enhancing the quality of the signal.
* Trade Management & Countdown:
* A Trade Countdown dynamically displays the remaining candle time based on the user-defined Max. Runtime (in Bars), helping traders manage holding periods.
* The table provides real-time updates on Active Trade Status, Entry Price, and Countdown.
⚙️ How to Use:
* Setup: Define your preferred MTF periods (e.g., "15" for 15-minute, "240" for 4-hour, etc.) in the Settings.
* Entry: Wait for the "Buy Entry" or "Sell Entry" shape to appear, indicating a filtered SMA Crossover that is confirmed by the MTF majority.
* Exit: Use the visually plotted TP Levels or monitor the Countdown for an automatic timeout.

Futures Day Trading Key Levels by Dhawal Ranka
Hey everyone, thank you for using this script, let me know in the comments how you feel about it!
What this script does:
This indicator renders one consolidated map of intraday reference levels for futures (e.g., ES, NQ, GC, CL). It is session-aware and draws:
- Previous ETH day High/Low/Close
- Previous RTH High/Low/Close (built from your RTH session)
- Today’s developing RTH High/Low and Mid
- Overnight (ON) session High/Low
- Opening Range (first N minutes of RTH): OR High/Low
- VWAP (day-anchored) with optional ±σ bands
- Floor Pivots (PP/R1/S1/R2/S2) from prior ETH daily bar
- ADR projections (Up/Down) using a configurable lookback and anchor
- Settlement: prior official settlement and today’s projected settle (with manual override)
- Weekly/Monthly context: prior W/M High/Low/Close and current W/M Open
- Minimal right-edge text tags (instead of big boxes) that sit on the price scale line and auto-pack when levels coincide
All lines extend across the chart to make confluence obvious without clutter.
How it works (methods & calculations)
Sessions
The script exposes two user sessions and a time zone:
RTH (e.g., 09:30–16:00 America/New_York)
ON (e.g., 18:00–09:29 America/New_York)
Session membership is computed with time(timeframe, session, tz) != 0.
RTH H/L/C (prev) are aggregated intrabar: on RTH start we seed H/L; while inRTH we update; on RTH end we store the close.
Previous Day (ETH) levels
request.security(syminfo.tickerid, "D", high /low /close ) supplies PDH/PDL/PDC on the continuous ETH daily.
Opening Range
On RTH start we mark orStartTime.
While RTH is active and elapsed time < N minutes, we track the running high/low.
When elapsed ≥ N minutes, we freeze OR High/Low.
VWAP & ±σ bands (intraday)
Day-anchored VWAP uses ta.vwap(hlc3).
Bands: standard deviation of (close − vwap) from day start, accumulated inline:
stdev = sqrt( mean(dev^2) − mean(dev)^2 )
Bands = vwap ± k * stdev (user multiplier).
Floor Pivots (classic)
Using prior ETH daily H/L/C:
PP = (H + L + C) / 3
R1 = 2*PP − L, S1 = 2*PP − H
R2 = PP + (H − L), S2 = PP − (H − L).
ADR projections
Daily range series rng = request.security(..., "D", high - low).
ADR = SMA(rng, L) (default L=14).
Anchor is user-selectable: today’s open or yesterday’s close.
Projections: ADR Up = anchor + ADR/2, ADR Down = anchor − ADR/2.
Settlement
Prev Settle defaults to prior ETH daily close but can be overridden manually for markets where official settlement differs from feed close.
Today Projected Settle uses the current ETH daily close value.
Weekly / Monthly context
Prior W/M H/L/C from "W"/"M" with , plus current W/M Open.
Rendering & label logic (originality)
Lines are persistent: each named level owns one line object that is updated, not re-created—keeps resource use low and avoids “too many plots”.
Right-edge labels are text-only (no box) placed at x = bar_index + offset and yloc.price.
When multiple levels share (almost) the same price, labels are packed side-by-side using a small bucketing algorithm:
Prices are bucketed within ±½ tick.
Each label gets a position index inside its bucket; the final x-offset = baseOffset + index*step + priority.
Priorities nudge important tags (e.g., Settle/RTH levels) closer to the price scale so they remain readable.
Why this is published & what’s original
It’s not a simple mashup: the script’s utility is the session-aware aggregation, the OR timing logic, the intraday σ calculation around VWAP, the line-persistence manager, and the label packing with priorities that keeps the right edge readable even when many levels coincide.
The closed-source protection covers the packing/priority scheme and the persistent object management that make it practical on busy futures charts without hitting Pine limits.
How to use
Set your sessions & time zone
Choose RTH/ON session windows (the defaults match CME equity index futures) and the time zone of your charting workflow.
Toggle components
Enable only the layers you need (e.g., VWAP bands off if you want a cleaner chart).
Opening Range length (minutes) is adjustable.
Settlement
If your broker/feed’s daily close isn’t the official settlement, enter a manual settle value for the prior day.
Read the right edge
Labels sit on the price scale line. When two labels share the same price, they appear side-by-side rather than overlapping.
Timeframes & symbols
Designed for intraday futures on 1–30m. Works on other symbols/timeframes but intent is day trading.
Inputs (summary)
Sessions/TZ: RTH window, ON window, time zone
Today: RTH H/L/Mid, ON H/L, OR (minutes)
VWAP: on/off, ±σ bands, multiplier
Pivots: PP/R1/S1/R2/S2 (ETH)
ADR: lookback, anchor (open vs. prev close)
Settlement: show prev/proj, manual override
Weekly/Monthly: prior H/L/C + current open
Style: line transparency; right-edge tag size, base offset, and step; optional inline labels
Limitations & notes
“Prev Settle” equals the prior daily close unless overridden.
Session definitions matter: if your exchange hours differ, set your own RTH/ON windows.
No alerts are included to minimize plot count and keep performance high (you can add alert conditions on any level in a private copy).

Gann Square Levels 1 to infinity by NishantGann Square Levels 1 to infinity by Nishant
This indicator plots dynamic horizontal price levels based on the squares of whole numbers (1², 2², 3², …) with a small adjustment rule: if a square ends with an even digit, 1 is added to make it odd (for example, 4² = 16 → 17). The script displays a configurable number of the nearest levels above and below the current price and updates automatically as price moves.
Key features • Dynamic: shows N levels above and below the current price (default 5 each) and updates live.
• Adjustment rule: every square that ends with an even digit is incremented by 1 to make it odd.
• Highly configurable: customize number of levels, colors, line width, line style, and line extension (None / Left / Right / Both).
• Labels: optional labels show level values.
• Efficient: searches near sqrt(price) to keep calculations fast and avoid TradingView object limits.
• Safe object handling: the script deletes and recreates lines/labels safely to avoid runtime errors.
Inputs / user controls • Number of Levels Above/Below — how many levels are shown on each side of price.
• Above Price Line Color / Below Price Line Color — choose distinct colors for clarity.
• Line Width — thickness of plotted lines.
• Line Style — Solid, Dashed, Dotted, Arrow Left/Right/Both.
• Line Extension — None, Left, Right, Both (choose how lines extend across the chart).
• Auto Update — toggle live updates on/off.
• Show Level Labels — toggle numeric labels.
Recommended usage • Best used as a reference grid for support/resistance planning, confluence studies, and alert generation.
• Works on any timeframe and instrument, but consider increasing Number of Levels for instruments with very high price scales (or leave default and let the script pick nearest levels).
• Combine with volume, momentum, or price-action signals for higher-probability setups.
Dynamic Support & Resistance (DSR)tndicator description: Dynamic Support & Resistance (DSR)
What it does
Plots dynamic support and resistance that adapt to any timeframe. In bullish phases it highlights resistances; in bearish phases it highlights supports. Works for scalping, binary options, and day trading.
How it works
Detects recent swing highs/lows with noise filtering.
Merges nearby levels into “zones” with configurable tolerance.
Promotes a zone after a valid break-and-close.
Classifies context as trend, channel, or range via slope and move strength.
Shows only context-relevant zones to reduce clutter.
Inputs
Swing length (pivot high/low).
Merge tolerance (%, ticks, or ATR fraction).
Lookback depth.
Trend filter (EMA or optional ADX).
Minimum touches to validate a zone.
Display mode: lines, bands, or blocks.
Break sensitivity (close condition, wick allowance, body %).
Visual outputs
Resistance zones during bullish phases.
Support zones during bearish phases.
Dual zones in ranges/channels.
Labels: touch count, zone strength, last test timestamp.
Signals and rules (suggested)
Reversal: rejection candle at a valid zone + momentum/volume confirmation.
Continuation: strong close through the zone + successful retest.
Invalidation: two full closes back inside the zone in the opposite direction.
Alerts (templates)
“Price touched DSR Resistance .”
“Break of DSR Support with close > sensitivity.”
“Successful retest at DSR Zone. Possible continuation.”
Timeframe guidance
1–5m: higher sensitivity, tighter tolerance. For scalping and binaries.
15–60m: balance between frequency and reliability.
4H–D: anchor levels for intraday planning.
Risk management
Technical stop: beyond the opposite zone + tolerance buffer.
Scaled TP: first at mid-range, second at next DSR zone.
Avoid trading into high-impact news.
Advantages
Auto-adapts to trend, channel, and range without constant tuning.
Reduces noise by merging redundant levels.
Focus on zones with verified touches and strength.
Limitations
Not predictive. Use with price/volume confirmation.
In high volatility, zones can update quickly. Tune tolerance accordingly.
Disclaimer
Educational only. Not financial advice. Test on demo before live use.
NeuroZgThis indicator visually displays Gamma Push (support) and Gamma Resistance zones using colored rectangles.

Settings:
- ZE1–ZE3: Gamma Push (support)
- ZR1–ZR3: Gamma Resistance
- Zone thickness: ±2
- Extension: 50 bars (default)
- Customizable colors
Note:
This script does not calculate gamma automatically.
Users must enter their own levels (e.g., from SpotGamma, UnusualWhales, or personal data).
