Breaker Blocks with Signals [LuxAlgo]The Breaker Blocks with Signals indicator aims to highlight a complete methodology based on breaker blocks. Breakout signals between the price and breaker blocks are highlighted and premium/discount swing levels are included to provide potential take profit/stop loss levels.
This script also includes alerts for each signal highlighted.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Breaker Blocks
Length: Sensitivity of the detected swings used to construct breaker blocks. Higher values will return longer term breaker blocks.
Use only candle body: Only use the candle body when determining the maximum/minimum extremities of the order blocks.
Use 2 candles instead of 1: Use two candles to confirm the occurrence of a breaker block.
Stop at first break of center line: Do not highlight breakout signals after invalidation until reset.
🔹 PD Array
Only when E is in premium/discount zone: Only set breaker block if point E of wave ABCDE is within the corresponding zone.
Show premium discount zone: Show premium/discount zone.
Highlight Swing Break: Highlight occurrences of price breaking a previous swing level.
Show Swings/PD Arrays: Show swing levels/labels and pd areas.
🔶 USAGE
The Breaker Blocks with Signals indicator aims to provide users with a minimalistic display alongside optimal signals to be aware of for finding trade setups as shown below.
Here we can see a MSS occurred allowing the indicator to detect a Breaker Block (-BB) & display a red arrow to confirm this signal.
The signal(s) that can be used for potential entries are only during retests of the breaker blocks.
A potential strategy traders could use with this indicator is to target the corresponding Discount PD Arrays detected (for a short position) and Premium PD Arrays (for a long position).
In the image above we can see price generated the potential entry signals in orange & fell to the Discount PD Arrays as a logical setup to look for with this indicator.
As we can see in the image above, signals can be considered invalid when price closes above the 50% level in which it would be suggested to wait for another setup.
Users still looking for more potential setups based on the same breaker block can disable the "Stop at first break of center line" setting within the settings menu.
In the image above we can see a bullish example whereas price confirmed a bullish breaker block (+BB), had a quick pullback into it that was confirmed by the green arrow, and then reached the Premium PD Arrays.
While retests of breaker blocks can still function well if they occur later in the price action, it's most preferable for users to look for entry signals that are near confirmed breaker blocks (5-10 bars) opposed to waiting 20+ bars.
Additional take profits based on the occurence of the breaker blocks are given in order to provide targets after the occurence of a breaker block breakout.
🔶 DETAILS
Breaker blocks are formed after a mitigated order block, these can provide change of polarity opportunities, thus playing a role as a potential support/resistance. It is the re-test/retrace of price to a breaker block that will set the conditions to provide signals.
The above chart describes the creation of a breaker block.
The signal generation logic makes use of various rules described below:
Bullish Breaker Blocks:
opening price is within the breaker block, while the closing price is above the upper extremity of the breaker block.
Price did not cross the breaker block average in the interval since the previous breakout.
Bearish Breaker Blocks:
opening price is within the breaker block, while the closing price is below the lower extremity of the breaker block.
Price did not cross the breaker block average in the interval since the previous breakout.
When a new pattern is formed, all previous drawings are removed.

Crypto Uptrend Script + Pullback//Volume CandlesDescription: his is an adaption of my Pullback candle - This works on all timeframes and Markets (Forex//Stocks//)
Crypto Uptrend Script with Pullback Candle allows traders to get into a trend when the price is at end of a pullback and entering a balance phase in the market (works on all markets). The use of Moving averages to help identify a Trends and the use of Key levels to help traders be aware of where strong areas are in the market.
This script can work really well in Crypto Bull Runs when used on HTF and with confluences
The script has key support and resistance zones which are made up of quarterly data. Price reacts to these areas but patience is required as price will take time to come into these areas
I have updated the Pullback Candle with the use of Volume to filter out the weak Pullback Candles -
There are new candles to the script.
The First candle is the Bullish Volume Candle - This candle is set to a multiplier of 2x with a crossover of 50/100 on Volume - this then will paint a purple candle.
Uses of the Bullish Volume Candle:
Breakthrough of key areas // special chart patterns
Rejection of key areas
End of a impulse wave (Profit Takers)
The second candle is a Hammer - I prefer using the Hammers on Higher Timeframes however they do work on all timeframes. .
The third candle is a Exhaustion of impulse downward move.
Uses of this candle - can denote a new trend but has to be with confluence to a demand area // support area or with any use of technical analysis - using this alone is not advised
The fourth candle is a indecision candle in the shape of a Doji - this candle can help identify if the trend is in a continuation or a reversal
This script can work really well in Crypto Bull Runs
Disclaimer: There will be Pullbacks with High Volume (Breakouts) and not go the way as intended but this script is to allow traders to get into trends at good price levels. The script can paint signals in areas where price is too expensive so please do your own due diligence on the markets as this script is to help get into good areas of price
Please leave a thumbs up if you like this script and message me for information on how to use the script.

Time settings are coded in the corresponding time zones.
🔶 USAGE
By default, the indicator displays each feature relevant to the most recent price variations in order to avoid clutter on the chart & to provide a very similar experience to how a user would contruct ICT Concepts by hand.
Users can use the historical mode in the settings to see historical market structure/imbalances. The ICT Concepts indicator has various use cases, below we outline many examples of how a trader could find usage of the features together.
In the above image we can see price took out Sellside liquidity, filled two bearish FVGs, a market structure shift, which then led to a clean retest of a bullish FVG as a clean setup to target the order block above.
Price then fills the OB which creates a breaker level as seen in yellow.
Broken OBs can be useful for a trader using the ICT Concepts indicator as it marks a level where orders have now been filled, indicating a solidified level that has proved itself as an area of liquidity. In the image above we can see a trade setup using a broken bearish OB as a potential entry level.
We can see the New Week Opening Gap (NWOG) above was an optimal level to target considering price may tend to fill / react off of these levels according to ICT.
In the next image above, we have another example of various use cases where the ICT Concepts indicator hypothetically allow traders to find key levels & find optimal entry points using market structure.
In the image above we can see a bearish Market Structure Shift (MSS) is confirmed, indicating a potential trade setup for targeting the Balanced Price Range imbalance (BPR) below with a stop loss above the buyside liquidity.
Although what we are demonstrating here is a hindsight example, it shows the potential usage this toolkit gives you for creating trading plans based on ICT Concepts.
Same chart but playing out the history further we can see directly after price came down to the Sellside liquidity & swept below it...
Then by enabling IFVGs in the settings, we can see the IFVG retests alongside the Sellside & Buyside liquidity acting in confluence.
Which allows us to see a great bullish structure in the market with various key levels for potential entries.
Here we can see a potential bullish setup as price has taken out a previous Sellside liquidity zone and is now retesting a NWOG + Volume Imbalance.
Users also have the option to display Fibonacci retracements based on market structure, order blocks, and imbalance areas, which can help place limit/stop orders more effectively as well as finding optimal points of interest beyond what the primary ICT Concepts features can generate for a trader.
In the above image we can see the Fibonacci extension was selected to be based on the NWOG giving us some upside levels above the buyside liquidity.
🔶 DETAILS
Each feature within the ICT Concepts indicator is described in the sub sections below.
🔹 Market Structure
Market structure labels are constructed from price breaking a prior swing point. This allows a user to determine the current market trend based on the price action.
There are two types of Market Structure labels included:
Market Structure Shift (MSS)
Break Of Structure (BOS)
A MSS occurs when price breaks a swing low in an uptrend or a swing high in a downtrend, highlighting a potential reversal. This is often labeled as "CHoCH", but ICT specifies it as MSS.
On the other hand, BOS labels occur when price breaks a swing high in an uptrend or a swing low in a downtrend. The occurrence of these particular swing points is caused by retracements (inducements) that highlights liquidity hunting in lower timeframes.
🔹 Order Blocks
More significant market participants (institutions) with the ability of placing large orders in the market will generally place a sequence of individual trades spread out in time. This is referred as executing what is called a "meta-order".
Order blocks highlight the area where potential meta-orders are executed. Bullish order blocks are located near local bottoms in an uptrend while bearish order blocks are located near local tops in a downtrend.
When price mitigates (breaks out) an order block, a breaker block is confirmed. We can eventually expect price to trade back to this breaker block offering a new trade opportunity.
🔹 Buyside & Sellside Liquidity
Buyside / Sellside liquidity levels highlight price levels where market participants might place limit/stop orders.
Buyside liquidity levels will regroup the stoploss orders of short traders as well as limit orders of long traders, while Sellside liquidity levels will regroup the stoploss orders of long traders as well as limit orders of short traders.
These levels can play different roles. More informed market participants might view these levels as source of liquidity, and once liquidity over a specific level is reduced it will be found in another area.
🔹 Imbalances
Imbalances highlight disparities between the bid/ask, these can also be defined as inefficiencies, which would suggest that not all available information is reflected by the price and would as such provide potential trading opportunities.
It is common for price to "rebalance" and seek to come back to a previous imbalance area.
ICT highlights multiple imbalance formations:
Fair Value Gaps: A three candle formation where the candle shadows adjacent to the central candle do not overlap, this highlights a gap area.
Implied Fair Value Gaps: Unlike the fair value gap the implied fair value gap has candle shadows adjacent to the central candle overlapping. The gap area is constructed from the average between the respective shadow and the nearest extremity of their candle body.
Balanced Price Range: Balanced price ranges occur when a fair value gap overlaps a previous fair value gap, with the overlapping area resulting in the imbalance area.
Volume Imbalance: Volume imbalances highlight gaps between the opening price and closing price with existing trading activity (the low/high overlap the previous high/low).
Opening Gap: Unlike volume imbalances opening gaps highlight areas with no trading activity. The low/high does not reach previous high/low, highlighting a "void" area.
🔹 Displacement
Displacements are scenarios where price forms successive candles of the same sentiment (bullish/bearish) with large bodies and short shadows.
These can more technically be identified by positive auto correlation (a close to open change is more likely to be followed by a change of the same sign) as well as volatility clustering (large changes are followed by large changes).
Displacements can be the cause for the formation of imbalances as well as market structure, these can be caused by the full execution of a meta order.
🔹 Kill Zones
Killzones represent different time intervals that aims at offering optimal trade entries. Killzones include:
- New York Killzone (7:9 ET)
- London Open Killzone (2:5 ET)
- London Close Killzone (10:12 ET)
- Asian Killzone (20:00 ET)
🔶 Conclusion & Supplementary Material
This script aims to emulate how a trader would draw each of the covered features on their chart in the most precise representation to how it's actually taught by ICT directly.
There are many parallels between ICT Concepts and Smart Money Concepts that we released in 2022 which has a more general & simpler usage:
ICT Concepts, however, is more specifically aligned toward the community's interpretation of how to analyze price 'based on ICT', rather than displaying features to have a more classic interpretation for a technical analyst.
ICT NWOG/NDOG & EHPDA [LuxAlgo]This indicator displays New Week/Day Opening Gaps alongside Event Horizon PD Arrays which were conceptualized by a trader, ICT.
🔶 SETTINGS
Show: Determines if new week opening gaps (NWOG) or new day opening gaps (NDOG) are shown.
Amount: Controls the amount of most recent NWOGs/NDOGs to display on the chart.
Show EHPDA: Displays Event Horizons PD arrays.
🔶 USAGE
New Week/Day Opening Gaps are generally used as potential support or resistance areas.
Trader ICT describes that under consolidating market conditions, price tends to revert towards the opening gap area. This is consistent with other analysis suggesting that price has a tendency to come back toward gaps, ultimately looking to fill them.
ICT also introduces a novel concept, the "Event Horizon PD Array" (EHPDA) which are intermediary levels constructed from the average between the neighboring NWOGs or NDOGs.
EHPDA's are described by ICT as levels that "will not allow price to escape to the NWOG that will create a surge towards the NWOG it got too "close" to but has not yet reached."
Price Action [SignalCave]Liquidation prices are calculated with Higher Timeframe usage of "Williams Fractals" indicator.
Sell side liquidity levels are shown with "L" text and a green solid lines.
Buy side liquidity levels are shown with "H" text and a red solid lines.
Premium and Discount zones are determined with latest untested buy/sell liquidity levels.
"Premium" means the asset price is overvalued, "Discount" means the asset is undervalued.
Once price hits any active liquidity level, "Premium and Discount" zone will be recalculated.
Premium and Discount have "Equilibrium" area which is center area of the whole zone.
Extra Support & Resistance levels calculation are based on Fibonacci. Levels are 23.6%, 38.2%, 61.8% and 78.6% .
Bars are painted based on asset's momentum. The asset momentum is calculated by the RSI and ADX indicators.
Volume profile shows trade activity during the "Premium and Discount" zone.
Price Action Oscillator with RSI--------- ENGLISH ---------
This oscillator combines the Price Action and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to help identify potential buy and sell signals in a market. The Price Action Oscillator measures the difference between the closing price and a 20-period moving average, and then normalizes this value by dividing it by the standard deviation of the closing price from the same moving average. The result is an oscillator that oscillates around zero, with positive values indicating that the closing price is above the moving average and negative values indicating the opposite. The oscillator is then normalized again to smooth out the curve.
The RSI is also calculated using a 14-period setting. The color of the oscillator line is determined by its normalized value and the RSI level. A green color is used for averaging values, black for values when the RSI is above 70, and red for values when the RSI is below 30. A dashed line is also plotted at the zero level to help identify potential buy and sell signals.
Traders can use this script to identify potential buy and sell signals based on the cross of the oscillator line with the zero line, as well as the color of the oscillator line. A buy signal may be identified when the oscillator line crosses above the zero line and is colored black, while a sell signal may be identified when the oscillator line crosses below the zero line and is colored red.
---------- ITALIAN -------------
Questo oscillatore combina l'oscillatore Price Action e l'Indice di Forza Relativa (RSI) per aiutare a identificare potenziali segnali di acquisto e vendita in un mercato. L'oscillatore Price Action misura la differenza tra il prezzo di chiusura e una media mobile a 20 periodi, e poi normalizza questo valore dividendo la differenza per la deviazione standard della chiusura dalla stessa media mobile. Il risultato è un oscillatore che oscilla intorno allo zero, con valori positivi che indicano che il prezzo di chiusura è sopra la media mobile e valori negativi che indicano il contrario. L'oscillatore viene poi nuovamente normalizzato per levigare la curva.
L'RSI viene anche calcolato utilizzando una configurazione a 14 periodi. Il colore della linea dell'oscillatore è determinato dal suo valore normalizzato e dal livello RSI. Viene utilizzato il colore verde per i valori medi, nero per i valori quando l'RSI è superiore al 70 e rosso per i valori quando l'RSI è inferiore al 30. Viene anche disegnata una linea tratteggiata a livello dello zero per aiutare a identificare potenziali segnali di acquisto e vendita.
I trader possono utilizzare questo script per identificare potenziali segnali di acquisto e vendita in base all'incrocio della linea dell'oscillatore con la linea dello zero, nonché al colore della linea dell'oscillatore. Un segnale di acquisto può essere identificato quando la linea dell'oscillatore incrocia sopra la linea dello zero e viene colorata di nero, mentre un segnale di vendita può essere identificato quando la linea dell'oscillatore incrocia sotto la linea dello zero e viene colorata di rosso.
Bitcoin 30m Swing Trader Long/Short StrategyIntro
I want to share the results of my passionate hobby and the unstoppable chase for a profitable automated trading strategy. It has been created with the intention of trading only Bitcoin. Altcoins are not interesting for me, as I have discovered lots of issues with finding the right parameter values for experiencing a good performance. As altcoins typically follow the trend of bitcoin and characteristically have a high volatility that may cause stop-hunts, I decided to not over complicate this project. I was just aiming for a profitable trading strategy with an acceptable drawdown and enough confidence by a statistically significant number of trades beside a wide backtesting timespan (credits going out to TradingView: Deep Backtesting).
Total time spent on this is approximately 2 years.
Indicators used
RSI: Used for entries and trend reversal spots
MACD: Used for entry and exit optimiziation
ATR: Used for dynamic offsets in trend definition indicator
Custom trend indicator: Self-made indicator, based on simple price action of higher timeframes using pivot points to find support and resistance zones that have formerly been created
Strategy parameters
I have reduced the total parameters used to just a few. It took lots of working hours to find appropriate values along the trading algorithm and I don’t want to overcomplicate it to you.
This strategy is for those, who have been looking for a working strategy. No DIY kit.
Feel free to adapt Take profit or stop loss targets. But it’s not recommended to do so.
How it works
Entries:
I started with a kind of template that I have been using for strategies for a long time. This includes how to find the right Entries during a trend as well as spotting trend reverse opportunities. Here I combine simple indicators like RSI and MACD beside necessary trend conditions. If a target RSI Value is hit, it will enter a trade, after MACD histogram has stopped to fall/rise. Depends on long/short. While we are in a trade and trend reversed, it waits for a specific RSI target level to be hit, to reverse the trade. As simple as it is, it closes the open one and starts a trade in other direction.
Micro trend:
It starts to get more interesting when it comes to trend recognition, as it forms the core of the strategy and discovering appropriate values for it has been very hard. The final trend variable is defined by the responses over higher timeframes of my self-made trend indicator. Executed on the current timeframe, the trend indicator is quite interesting. But for a automated trading strategy it is necessary to deviate trading instructions from higher timeframes trends.
Macro trend:
The same process that happens for micro trend is also applied with much higher timeframes, like 3D or weekly. The basic assumption is, that if we are in a bull or bear run, where retail investors are flooding the markets, we are increasing our take profit targets respectively. This way we can catch bigger moves in bigger trends.
Exits:
Closing a trade generally happens when a TP target (in %) is hit, or the SL (in %) is hit. The strategy has a special treatment with SL’s. After it happens, the strategy is more careful about market conditions and typically waits for a countertrade. The third way of closing a trade has already been mentioned: the reverse trades. They happen during choppy market conditions. The strategy has also special awareness here and tracks, if reverse trades start to happen more often. After a while, it starts to be more restrictive in opening new reverse trades.
Performance
Capabilities and limitations:
As I have already mentioned the strategy is only optimized for bitcoin (Perpetual Futures). This does not mean, it can not be used on other markets, because the algorithm itself is universal appliable. A very hard task was about finding the right parameter values for the strategy performing like this. If you have a special wish to configure this strategy for a specific market, DM me. The strategy has been tested with different configurations on the following timeframes: 30, 15, 10, 5, 1. I have decided to publish the one for 30m TF, because its performance simply convinced me.
Repainting:
It has been tested lots of times against repainting.
Confidence:
The total backtesting performance reaches out to 2019-09-08. So the strategy has been managing to be successful since then, but this does not guarantee that the logic, this strategy follows, is going to continue this level in future.
Commission:
The algorithm is configured with 0.04% commission per trade, as it is on Binance (for Future Market orders).
Ordersize:
Its totally up to you, how much of your total equity should be traded. Nevertheless, I would personally recommend to not exceed 50% ordersize of your equity with this strategy. In the past, you would have had great performance beside a drawdown, that was from psychological point of view good to handle with. This strategy additionally uses STOP LOSSES, so you can never loose you whole ordersize at one trade.
Slippage:
You also must consider about getting slipped when trading this strategy on live markets. Statistically one could assume, that the slippage could be neutral, as it can be both positive or negative. It depends on your execution time, the exchange, on which you are executing trades and market conditions. But keep it in mind, as if you have too much slippage, this strategy would be unprofitable.
Advanced Price Direction AlgorithmPrices can go up or down or falter in their movement.
This code evaluates this by looking at two consecutive bars or sets of bars.
If you put the set size to 1, the current and previous bar is evaluated.
If put to 2, the last2 and the 2 before these are evaluated.
Default is 12 because this seems to coincide with trend changes.
This code provides an advanced way to evaluate what the price does in a sort of three-value Boolean with the values up, down or falter.
I use this code in indicators I develop where price direction is taken into account.
The simple output makes it possible to use it as an indicator on its own.
Random Price Action Visible Chartplots randomly generated price (closing basis) from LHS of the chart. Re-plots each time you scroll
-just a curiosity really; perhaps a lesson in seeing patterns where there are none; 'fooled by randomness' etc.
-always anchors/starts from the real close of the asset on the visible Left hand side of the chart.
-adjust ATR as you like (bigger = probably more reliable/realistic).
-adjust ATRmultiple as you like (discretionary; basically how many ATR ranges above/below last bar's random close, will the maximum random value above/below be; default is 1.5x (arbitrary).
Big 8 Intraday TICKAt the start of each trading day (0930 EST), this indicator calculates the intraday price difference between open and close for the eight largest market cap stocks (AAPL, AMZN, GOOGLE, META, MSFT, NFLX, NVDA, and TSLA), assigns a +/-1 for each, and then plots the cumulative change. An EMA has been added for smoothing purposes that is set to 5 but can be changed. Please note indicator is best used on lower timeframes (15 min or less) and has no applicability to time frames above 1 hour.
The thought behind this indicator is those eight major stocks drive a majority of intraday price change in indices like SPY and QQQ that are heavily weighted towards these stocks, therefore they should be a leading indicator in price change. You can often catch a move in SPY or QQQ one to two bars (on 1 min chart) ahead of the actual move because you see this indicator moving strong to one direction.
It's not perfect as there are divergences you will see when you compare historical charts, but oftentimes those divergences ultimately lead to significant price swings in the same direction as this indicator, so recommend being on watch to pull the trigger when you see those and price confirms.
You can use this indicator in a few ways:
1. Confirmation that your current trade is in the same direction as this indicator
2. Use the zero cross as a trigger for put or call entry
3. Focusing only on calls/longs if the value is above 0, or only puts/shorts if the value is below zero. Just be sure to keep an eye on reversals.
If you have recommendations on how to improve, let me know and I'll do my best to make changes.
Weekday Change & Volume Average TableHaving a reference point for comparing with current data has always been an important task in market analysis. This script tried to give a better understanding based on weekdays.
This script shows that in the current ticker, what is the average movement of the price (High-Low) and volume for each weekday. Depending on the market and the exchange it should be different.
The Interesting point is that, for example in BINANCE:BTCUSDT , on Saturday and Sunday, volume is about 30% less and the price movement is about 20% less.
The script can be used on any timeframe and any symbol, just remember that the data shown is based on the candles on the chart, so it is different also based on your tradingview's account since Historical bars available for Basic is 5K, Pro & Pro+ is 10K and Premium is 20K; And in lower timeframes it is calculating more recent data.
Relative Price Volume
Relative Price Volume is an indicator which shows anomalies between price and volume on a chart over a given period. The goal is to identify potential reversal and/consolidation areas for price as it relates to volume. It is a simple variation of a Volume at Price indicators. It can also be used to mark potential support and resistance lines on the chart as the areas it signals is where the price battles are waged.
Settings:
Period = length for which to calculate average candle body and average volume
Long Factor = relative size multiplier to determine if a candle is larger than average or if volume is higher than average
Short Factor = relative size multiplier to determine if a candle is smaller than average or if volume is lower than average
Anomaly Conditions
1. If a candle is larger than average and volume is lower than average, then this is an anomaly, and we should be on alert for a change in momentum.
2. if a candle is smaller than average and volume is higher than average, then this too is an anomaly and should put us on alert.
The indicator will draw a cross on the chart indicating the candle is that is flashing the warning that the run is done and a potential consolidation and/or reversal is pending. Used in conjunction with support and resistance levels this could signal a time to enter or exit a trade.
The default size factors considers a candle or volume:
1. Larger than average if it is 60% or more (.6) larger than average.
2. Smaller than average if it is 40% or less (.4) smaller than average.
Hope this helps! Happy trading!
New Bearish Downtrend Script - Perfect for Short SellingIts been a while since i last uploaded a script, what i have for you today is a script which works very efficiently for downtrends and spotting reversals. This is a script i use on a weekly basis when looking to short sell.
This script includes :
Updated** Rally Candles for HTF and LTF ( End of Impulsive move signal) - The psychology of the candle when used with market information can be viewed as a end or near to the end of a big impulsive leg - when this candle occurs in BEARISH CONDITIONS, we can assume price is likely to move away short term.
Major and Minor Support Levels HTF (Areas of interest)
The Psychology on these levels is price will do something at these key levels - it takes in the last quarter price action of High Open Low Close to generate the price levels and when price comes into these areas we are likely to see a bounce or rejection from this area.
Bearish Breakout Volume Candle - This candle will paint a Purple colour bar when volume breaks above the 7day average - this shows strong momentum in the market and will usually be seen when price is in a downtrend with strong momentum.. However when this does occur we can expect a short term bounce or base so don't trade the volume bar alone.
Indecision Candles - Psychology of this candle is to show exhaustion in the trend and ideally what to see this candle appear with Rally Candles at key areas for stronger set up. When the trend is moving up, the bearish doji can appear - i tend to look at this situation as a pause in the trend.
200 EMA
Everything in this script has alert conditions to provide an edge in the markets
This is an example of how the script will look on the HTF I'm using the Daily Timeframe for reference on TSLA
This is an example of how the script looks like on the LTF, price hit the Major Resistance twice and failed to hit the 3rd time and on each leg of the impulse, the chart portrayed the LTF Rally Candles
Heres an example on how to use both Major Resistance ( Area of Interest) Rally Candle and Volume Breakout as a trade set up idea - This setup idea was on Crude Oil last week and into this week.
When added to confluences such as Supply Zones, Mitigation Levels, Quasimodo patterns etc... this will enhance the script.
I will answer any questions if i haven't made the script clear or take any requests to improve the script.
Also will be uploading the Bullish Uptrend Script soon.
MATHR3E FLOW EXTENSION█ OVERVIEW
MATHR3E Flow Extension is a market timing tool which aims to anticipate trend reversals and highlight potential low risk entries.
█ CONCEPTS
Disclaimer:
MATHR3E Flow indicator is intended for advanced traders and may fit your profile, whether you are a day trader or a long-term investor.
It was originally developed by a renowned market analyst and documented in numerous books. Among them is the author Jason Perl.
It is recommended to have read the trading techniques mentioned in the books covering this indicator beforehand.
How to use:
Fibonacci Flow is a very complex tool, the purpose is not to detail it here but rather to introduce it briefly.
For a complete understanding, it is strongly recommended to read the books mentioned in the disclaimer section.
This indicator has two main components:
1 — The Prelude, which relies on momentum to define price ranges.
From a Price Reversal there must be nine consecutive closes;
Each one less/greater than the corresponding close four bars earlier.
Preludes are numbered from 1 to 9. A complete Prelude occurs on bar 9.
It can be: Sharpened / Flawed / Ignored / Extended / Over-Extended / Renewed
Cross over parameter can also evaluate the slowdown in a price trend's intensity and qualify the inception of Flow
2 — The Flow, which comes into play once the Prelude is complete.
They are trend based, and look for low-risk opportunities to fade established directional moves.
Flows are counts numbered from 1 to 13. There are 3 of them:
• SEQ: compares the current close with the low/high two bars earlier
• AGG: compares the current low/high with the low/high two bars earlier
• CMB: complex set of comparison with 2 available methods (not detailed here)
To handle the large amount of data to be displayed, they have been distributed over two indicators.
This indicator therefore works in pair with its companion: MATHR3E Flow Extension Dashboard.
The distribution of the display is as follows:
Current indicator:
• Flow points
• Markers for Flows cancelation (X)
• Markers for Nested Exhaustion points (with brackets)
• Exhaustions points for:
• SEQ: 13 up to 55 (Identify trend fading)
• AGG: 13 up to 55 (For higher trading frequency)
• CMB: 13 up to 34 (Identify prospective turning points following an abrupt price movement)
Companion indicator:
• Prelude points
• Markers for Sharpened/flawed/valid/invalid completed preludes.
• Markers for Nested preludes (with brackets)
• Markers for Extension preludes (E)
• Markers for Over Extension preludes (O)
• Markers for Renewed preludes (R)
• Prelude Risk lines
• Flow Risk lines
• Prelude Trend Support and resistance
• Dashboard for supervision of ongoing counts
█ FEATURES & BENEFITS
Fibonacci Sequence
The number 13 is part of the Fibonacci sequence which is nature’s numbering system.
Even if a Prelude Renewal is not triggered, a trend may extend beyond Fibonacci number 13.
MATHR3E Flow Extension can unveil the next exhaustion points based on this same Fibonacci sequence (21, 34, 55) while respecting the logic of the Flow.
Exhaustion points
Potential exhaustion points emerge whenever the individual flows reach Fibonacci numbers.
These points may help traders to identify low-risk buy or sell opportunities.
Risk Lines
Once the trader has selected an entry point, the displayed risk lines should encourage the trader to remain disciplined and apply proper money management.
Position sizing remains the responsibility of the trader.
Available risk lines:
• buy/sell Preludes
• buy/sell Flows
Nested Flows
The indicator can track up to five nested Flows.
Nested exhaustion points will have markups brackets.
Renewing
During the path to reach point number 13, it is very common to trigger other Prelude in the same direction as the previously initiated trend.
MATHR3E Flow Extension will address these potential market renewals with multiples options:
• Prelude range qualifiers
• Renewal Multiplier
• Renewal Method (Before/On/After, Before/On, Only Before, After/On, Only After, Ignore All)
Alerts
Its Companion indicator also provides programmable alerts whose format can be adapted to be received on Discord servers
Configure your alerts and get notified on:
• Trend changes
• BUY or SELL P9
• BUY or SELL S13 to S55
• BUY or SELL A13 to A55
• BUY or SELL C13 to C34
Volume Price Balance by serkany88This idea has been in my mind for a while. We all know how important volume is to technical analysis but volume and price itself doesn't mean much when volatility and momentum of the current trend is not taken into account. With this oscillator we try to combine all these factors into one indicator and provide a simplified interpretation of this relationship with spread analysis. This indicator can be used in all timeframes but higher timeframes like 1 hour and above will provide most stable results.
How it works?
This oscillator tries to analyze volume spread along with price spread based on wyckoff methods and attains certain "strength value" for each candle and it's relationship with the volume. After this calculation preferably we remove detected rejection candles from overall calculation and draw them as plots. The multipliers of the strengths can be changed from the settings.
Green Line Above Red Line = Bullish momentum stronger
Red Line Above Green Line = Bearish momentum stronger
Top circles mean possible bullish reversal candle detected. Gray is weak, White is normal and Red top circle means strong possible reversal detected.
Bottom circles mean possible bearish reversal candle detected. Gray is weak, White is normal and Green bottom circle means strong possible reversal detected.
Let's check the example below
As you can see we see a green dot appear in a somewhat weakening bullish momentum, this can mean possible reversal can happen soon and it does.
Below is a bearish example
In this example we see a possible strong reversal signal in a increasing bullish momentum and the price reacts immediately after the candle.
We also have a table that shows the current non-smoothed result of trend strength based on calculated price-volume spread at top right of the oscillator.
PAC newThis indicator will alert you when a candle goes above or below the price action channel (PAC) but only on the first or second candle after a colour change in candle.
When price is above the price action channel that is a bullish sign, when price is below the PAC that is a bearish sign.
The idea is that a sudden change in price is a cause to investigate further price action moving in that direction so the indicator aims to identify reversal
Scalping strategy that works on 5 min chart and aims to gain 10 pips. Do not act on every signal. Further investigation is required, for example by looking at RSI oversolf and overbought levels. For example, at an oversold area, a buy signal is more valid

* Hi everybody here's the ★彡 𝓑𝓸𝓾𝓷𝓬𝓮 𝓟𝓻𝓲𝓬𝓮 𝓓𝓮𝓽𝓮𝓬𝓽𝓸𝓻 𝓘𝓷𝓭𝓲𝓬𝓪𝓽𝓸𝓻 彡★ indicator and how to use it :
彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡彡
First : Depending on Pivot (HH,LL), the two possible price Correction appears on chart if the price under the Correction levels it would be a Resistance levels and to entry there candle must close above the levels, you can use Replay Mod to get the previous price Correction levels
And Here's Some Example : The price make a new HH,LL and new levels appears on chart but the price didn't confirm a bounce signale and close above the first level
So in next candle the price brake the levels and drop down :
Then a new HH,LL and new levels appears on chart and the price back to the lower levels as a Resistance Levels but when it's close above the levels and test it again it become a Support levels and price bounce again
Here's another example when price go above the levels , test it and bounce again
About The levels : depending on Fibonacci golden rate

RSI Accumulation/Distribution [M]Hello everyone,
After my long tests, I observed that the rate of change of direction of the price was high after the periods when the RSI spent a long time outside the band. As a result of my observations, I prepared this indicator.
This indicator shows you the accumulation and distribution areas that occur outside the rsi band.
There are 3 different levels available.
Level 1 = 5 Bars
Level 2 = 7 Bars
Level 3 = 9 Bars
For example, if the RSI spends more than 9 bars below the 30 level or above the 70 level, it will paint that area red. Levels can be changed from the indicator settings. The rsi is smoothed with simple moving average to reduce fake signals.
Using the RSI A/D indicator with different indicators or patterns will increase your success rate.
Examples:
Round Numbers Breakouts Smart Formula Signals and AlertsThis indicator uses Round Numbers breakouts and then uses smart formula with the near Round Numbers to determine best TP (take profit)/SL (stop loss) areas. Furthermore, it calculates win percentage, shows in-profit/in-loss peaks and the price amount result over a customizable date range, which when combined well with the smart formula provides decent profitable outcome. I have decided to write my own backtesting engine as the integrated TradingView strategy one has limitations and has shown inconsistencies when compared to manual backtesting…
There are many settings you can manually change to trade any instrument, any style, any approach and there are presets included for Bitcoin(BTCUSD), FOREX(EURUSD), SPY(S&P500), so you can start trading immediately! Alerts correspond to indicator settings and are turned on with a few clicks. There are 3 tables (each can be shown/hidden) showing everything you need to see/know to calibrate the indicator as you wish.
Labels, lines, tables explanations (everything can be hidden/shown):
- LONG Labels: medium-green: position open, dark-green: SL, bright-green: TP, blue: TP2
- SHORT Labels: medium-red: position open, dark-red: SL, bright-red: TP, purple: TP2
- Gray circles: position entry area | Yellow crosses: SL area
- Green line: Long TP1, Blue line: Long TP2 | Red Line: Short TP1, Purple line: Short TP2
- Grey lines: Round Numbers (customized via “Round Number up/down measure unit” input)
- Yellow labels at end of each week: end of week OVERALL total results
- Red colored background: power segment
- 3 tables: 1) INFO | STATS, 2) SPY Options Calculator, 3) Indicator Settings
If you decide to fully customize the indicator yourself, on the very top - under “PRESETS” select “MANUAL”! NOTE: If you select any of the pre-set presets, only GLOBAL settings can be changed, the rest of the settings will be “frozen” until you switch it to “MANUAL”!
- Global Settings are self-explanatory and mainly observational, show/hide, etc.
- Manual TP2 (Multi-Take-Profit) Settings:
>>>>> Include TP2 System? Turn on/off multi-profit system, with this unchecked, every trade will either end with SL or with TP1.
>>>>> TP2 System: NEAREST/FORMULA, NEAREST – after TP1 is taken > next TP2 will be a round number price target nearest to where TP1 was taken (sometimes it can be very near, sometimes further away…), FORMULA – 2nd round number price target will be optimally selected based on the distance behind and ahead of TP1 area. For TP2 – FORMULA would be the most logical choice as with multi-take-profit setting turned on – you’d want to ride it out as far as possible.
>>>>> TP1/TP2 division type: 1) Each price target (TP1, TP2) will be ½ of the position 2) TP1 will be 2/3 of the position and TP2 will be the remaining 1/3.
>>>>> TP2 hit type: “close” > candle has to close on top/crossing the price target line, “touch” > once candle touches the price target – you will be immediately alerted to take the partial profit (if you will use such setting – you will need to take the partial profits as soon as you receive the alert.
>>>>> TP1 > Back to Entry hit type: similar to TP2, “close” > candle close, “touch” > candle touch. Please note: this is a very tricky setting as if you use “close” option – your profitable trade may become a loss if a huge candle will close against your position eliminating your TP1 profit, however often the price will touch and cross the entry area to only bounce and continue with your position direction for even bigger profits… so experiment with the date range results to see what works best for your instrument/setting/strategy.
>>>>> TP2 count towards trades count: this can be a bit confusing, but it is simply how should TP2 be treated towards trades count. The indicator will show you Win Percentage and Win % is obtained from winning trades count divided by total trades count. While TP2 is not “a new trade”, it expands the profit of the trade. This is an experimental setting to count TP2 as the whole winning trade, ½ of a trade, or not count it at all.
- Manual Signals/TP1 Settings:
>>>>> TP1/TP2 offset: this one is really cool, with this feature you can hunt these conditions when the price comes very near the profit target area, but never touches it. With this setting turned on and with a good offset amount – you will be able to catch these for TP1 and TP2!
>>>>> TP1/TP2 offset amount: just what the title says, please be careful with this as this number varies significantly depending on the instrument you will be trading. Examples: 1) For SPY 0.1 would be $0.10 offset - if TP1 is $400 and price hits $399.90 > TP1 considered taken/signal shown/alert) | 2) For EURUSD, it is very different and if wrong will show TP1 immediately at position open, typical good offset for EURUSD is: 0.0005 | 3) For BTCUSD, 10 - $10 offset, if TP is $15,000 > $14,990, etc.
>>>>> Round Number up/down measure unit (in dollars $): this one is very important if you will be using “MANUAL” selection to build your own setup as it is very different for every instrument. For SPY, round numbers are single dollars or even half-dollar 50 cent numbers: 1 or 0.5 (350, 351, 352, etc. or 350.50, 351, 351.50, 352, etc.), while for Bitcoin (BTCUSD) a single unit ($1) is too small to be a round number as Bitoin moves much faster and wider every second and it would have to be at least 50 ($50) to make sense. Similar for FOREX (EUR/USD) a single 1 unit ($1) will be too big as EURUSD will never move a whole $1 in 15 minutes or even a day.. and would have to be something like 1.05500. You can easily determine if this number makes sense for your instrument by observing the grey Round Number lines which will correspond based on this setting. You can also visually observer if the price of the instrument appreciates these round numbers.
>>>>> Close Position Before Market Closes: just what the title says. Indicator will close the position 15 minutes before market closes (US session), update backtesting stats, alert you.
>>>>> Close Position Before Power Hour: 3PM – 4PM ET is the last hour of US trading session, where sudden move in any direction can happen with huge volatility, while sometimes nothing will happen at all… Many try to avoid it, so if you wish to avoid it as well - turn this on and it will alert you to close your positions 15 minutes before Power Hour starts, backtesting/stats will be adjusted accordingly.
>>>>> Skip OVERSIZED candles in signals: turn on this setting to skip signals, which happen to fall on big candles. This is basically a protection from huge volatility moves, which usually happen during financial news/events and if you are not a fan of these – you can set this option for indicator to not open anything based on the candle size.
>>>>> Color OVERSIZED candles: this will help you calibrate the size of the OVERSIZED candles if you decide to use this setting and overall visually see them.
>>>>> OVERSIZED candle size: OVERSIZED candle size must be input as it varies significantly. Please note: for each instrument – the size number is completely different, as for SPY: 2 would mean any candle bigger than $2 distance will be considered OVERSIZED, for Bitcoin it would have to be several hundred dollars, like 400-500. For FOREX, this would have to be a decimal, for EURUSD something like 0.0005. It’s best to experiment visually with this setting depending on the instrument you will be trading while setting up the size. To see a typical huge unusual candle – look up financial calendar for something like FOMC meeting, then measure the candle input it into this setting.
>>>>> OVERSIZED candle size calculation type: this is just more flexibility for your preference. If you wish to calculate the size of the candle based on the open/close – select “BODY”, if you wish to use high/low – select “STICKS (from tip to tip)”. Hard to say which one is better, so it is up to you to decide.
>>>>> Include EMA in signal formula: LONG signals will only be shown only if above EMA, SHORT if below EMA. EMA length is of course customizable in below.
>>>>> Skip opposite candle types in signals: signals where the candle color confirms the direction of the trade, but the candle type is opposite (like a green colored bearish hammer for example) will be avoided (such candles can be very uncertain/deceptive).
>>>>> Skip doji: signals where the signal candle is doji (uncertain) will be avoided.
>>>>> TP1 hit type/system: same thing as TP2 hit type/system.
>>>>> SL hit type/system: same as TP1 and TP2 types/systems.
>>>>> Intraday Session Signals Active Time in ET: time range during the day when indicator will show signals (open trades, alert you, etc.). This is specifically for intraday trading. You can turn it off completely by selecting a BLANK option.
>>>>> Intraday TP/SL Active Time in ET: same as above, but for taking profits/stop losses.

3 Bar Engulfing Bar
Strat Setups - 212, 322, 312
Fibonacci - 0.236, 0.382, 0.618, 1.0
Moving Averages
A Trend is considered bullish when (green)
Current Price is greater than the Fast EMA Value (8)
Fast EMA is greater than PIVOT EMA Value (21)
Pivot EMA is greater than SLOW EMA Value (34)
OR Hull is trending up and the Price is above the Volume Weighted Moving Average and price is above VWAP
A trend is considered Bearish when (red)

Higher Timeframe Price Action ScannerThis is a higher timeframe scanner that detects the price action trend on multiple timeframes and displays them all as red or green dots. You’ll be able to see the real time and historical price action trends so you can trade in the same direction of the overall trend on higher timeframes. You can also set it to scan a different ticker if you choose. If you find pairs that correlate very well, you can use two scanners and look at both of them for extra trend confluence.
CALCULATIONS
This scanner uses the same price action formula from our other indicator titled 1 Minute Scalping Indicator which can be found on our profile. It has Scalp Mode and Swing Mode. Both modes use the exact same price action parameters for signals, but Swing Mode will only give signals when the price action parameters are met AND the close is higher than the previous high for bull signals or when the close is lower than the previous low for bear signals.
HOW TO USE
The top line of the scanner shows the price action trend for the current chart timeframe and the rest are using the higher timeframe that you set in the input settings. They start with higher timeframe #1 as the second line from the top and go down from there.
When most or all of the dots are green, you should be looking for long positions and when most or all of the dots are red, you should be looking for short positions.
Since this scanner is using pure price action to identify trends, it’s a reliable way to see what multiple timeframes are doing.
PAIRINGS
Use this with the 1 Minute Scalping Indicator so you can get the signals and candles colored per the price action on your chart as well as see the higher timeframe price action trend from the scanner. Using both together will help you make better trading decisions.
MARKETS
You can use this scanner on any market.
TIMEFRAMES
This scanner will scan the current chart timeframe and display the result on the top line, then the lines below that will display the results from the higher timeframes you choose in the settings. It has timeframes from 1 minute all the way up to 1 year.
1 Minute Scalping IndicatorThis is a 1 Minute Scalping Indicator based purely on price action of the current candle compared to the previous candle so there is no lag from using other indicators. It works great on all timeframes, but is designed for getting in and out of positions quickly using the 1 minute chart. The candles will paint according to the direction the price is currently moving in, which is a great way to help reduce anxiety while watching the candles bounce back and forth.
HOW TO USE
It has Scalp Mode and Swing Mode. Both modes use the exact same price action parameters for signals, but Swing Mode will only give signals when the price action parameters are met AND the close is higher than the previous high for bull signals or when the close is lower than the previous low for bear signals.
This scalping indicator will show green up arrows when it detects bullish price action and red down arrows when it detects bearish price action. It will show a yellow arrow if the bullish/bearish price action conditions are met, but it detects a candle pattern that may be a weak signal such as small candle body, large wicks, etc. When this happens, make sure to wait for the next candle to show confirming price action before following the signal. You can also turn the signals off and use only the candle coloring if you prefer cleaner charts.
You can change the candle colors it uses within the input settings, as well as the color of the signal arrows to suit your preferences. You can also turn off the candle coloring if you prefer normal candles. If you are using the indicator’s candle coloring, make sure you go to your chart settings(gear icon top right) and in the symbol tab, turn off body, borders and wick for this to show up properly.
This scalper also includes alerts for bull and bear signals that can be set to alert you on any market and timeframe.
SCANNER
We also made a higher timeframe scanner that uses this same price action formula and shows you if higher timeframes are currently bullish or bearish in real time. It’s titled Higher Timeframe Price Action Scanner and can be found on our profile. I strongly recommend using both of these together to get an idea of the overall trend on longer timeframes. You can also use two of the scanners and set them to two tickers that move together or opposite of each other(like SQQQ and TQQQ) for even more market insight on your ticker's immediate direction.
MARKETS
This 1 Minute Scalping Indicator works well on any market such as stocks, crypto, forex, futures, etc.
TIMEFRAMES
This indicator is designed for scalping on the 1 Minute timeframe, but it works well on all timeframes, since it is using price action to give signals.
TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS
We recommend pairing this indicator with another support & resistance or moving average combo to find great entry areas and use the price action signals as confirmation when price bounces off of those areas. We also recommend using the Higher Timeframe Price Action Scanner with this so you can see the overall trend of higher timeframes on your chart and trade in the direction of the trend.
