Mars Signals - Ultimate Institutional Suite v3.0(Joker)Comprehensive Trading Manual
Mars Signals – Ultimate Institutional Suite v3.0 (Joker)
## Chapter 1 – Philosophy & System Architecture
This script is not a simple “buy/sell” indicator.
Mars Signals – UIS v3.0 (Joker) is designed as an institutional-style analytical assistant that layers several methodologies into a single, coherent framework.
The system is built on four core pillars:
1. Smart Money Concepts (SMC)
- Detection of Order Blocks (professional demand/supply zones).
- Detection of Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) (price imbalances).
2. Smart DCA Strategy
- Combination of RSI and Bollinger Bands
- Identifies statistically discounted zones for scaling into spot positions or exiting shorts.
3. Volume Profile (Visible Range Simulation)
- Distribution of volume by price, not by time.
- Identification of POC (Point of Control) and high-/low-volume areas.
4. Wyckoff Helper – Spring
- Detection of bear traps, liquidity grabs, and sharp bullish reversals.
All four pillars feed into a Confluence Engine (Scoring System).
The final output is presented in the Dashboard, with a clear, human-readable signal:
- STRONG LONG 🚀
- WEAK LONG ↗
- NEUTRAL / WAIT
- WEAK SHORT ↘
- STRONG SHORT 🩸
This allows the trader to see *how many* and *which* layers of the system support a bullish or bearish bias at any given time.
## Chapter 2 – Settings Overview
### 2.1 General & Dashboard Group
- Show Dashboard Panel (`show_dash`)
Turns the dashboard table in the corner of the chart ON/OFF.
- Show Signal Recommendation (`show_rec`)
- If enabled, the textual signal (STRONG LONG, WEAK SHORT, etc.) is displayed.
- If disabled, you only see feature status (ON/OFF) and the current price.
- Dashboard Position (`dash_pos`)
Determines where the dashboard appears on the chart:
- `Top Right`
- `Bottom Right`
- `Top Left`
### 2.2 Smart Money (SMC) Group
- Enable SMC Strategy (`show_smc`)
Globally enables or disables the Order Block and FVG logic.
- Order Block Pivot Lookback (`ob_period`)
Main parameter for detecting key pivot highs/lows (swing points).
- Default value: 5
- Concept:
A bar is considered a pivot low if its low is lower than the lows of the previous 5 and the next 5 bars.
Similarly, a pivot high has a high higher than the previous 5 and the next 5 bars.
These pivots are used as anchors for Order Blocks.
- Increasing `ob_period`:
- Fewer levels.
- But levels tend to be more significant and reliable.
- In highly volatile markets (major news, war events, FOMC, etc.),
using values 7–10 is recommended to filter out weak levels.
- Show Fair Value Gaps (`show_fvg`)
Enables/disables the drawing of FVG zones (imbalances).
- Bullish OB Color (`c_ob_bull`)
- Color of Bullish Order Blocks (Demand Zones).
- Default: semi-transparent green (transparency ≈ 80).
- Bearish OB Color (`c_ob_bear`)
- Color of Bearish Order Blocks (Supply Zones).
- Default: semi-transparent red.
- Bullish FVG Color (`c_fvg_bull`)
- Color of Bullish FVG (upward imbalance), typically yellow.
- Bearish FVG Color (`c_fvg_bear`)
- Color of Bearish FVG (downward imbalance), typically purple.
### 2.3 Smart DCA Strategy Group
- Enable DCA Zones (`show_dca`)
Enables the Smart DCA logic and visual labels.
- RSI Length (`rsi_len`)
Lookback period for RSI (default: 14).
- Shorter → more sensitive, more noise.
- Longer → fewer signals, higher reliability.
- Bollinger Bands Length (`bb_len`)
Moving average period for Bollinger Bands (default: 20).
- BB Multiplier (`bb_mult`)
Standard deviation multiplier for Bollinger Bands (default: 2.0).
- For extremely volatile markets, values like 2.5–3.0 can be used so that only extreme deviations trigger a DCA signal.
### 2.4 Volume Profile (Visible Range Sim) Group
- Show Volume Profile (`show_vp`)
Enables the simulated Volume Profile bars on the right side of the chart.
- Volume Lookback Bars (`vp_lookback`)
Number of bars used to compute the Volume Profile (default: 150).
- Higher values → broader historical context, heavier computation.
- Row Count (`vp_rows`)
Number of vertical price segments (rows) to divide the total price range into (default: 30).
- Width (%) (`vp_width`)
Relative width of each volume bar as a percentage.
In the code, bar widths are scaled relative to the row with the maximum volume.
> Technical note: Volume Profile calculations are executed only on the last bar (`barstate.islast`) to keep the script performant even on higher timeframes.
### 2.5 Wyckoff Helper Group
- Show Wyckoff Events (`show_wyc`)
Enables detection and plotting of Wyckoff Spring events.
- Volume MA Length (`vol_ma_len`)
Length of the moving average on volume.
A bar is considered to have Ultra Volume if its volume is more than 2× the volume MA.
## Chapter 3 – Smart Money Strategy (Order Blocks & FVG)
### 3.1 What Is an Order Block?
An Order Block (OB) represents the footprint of large institutional orders:
- Bullish Order Block (Demand Zone)
The last selling region (bearish candle/cluster) before a strong upward move.
- Bearish Order Block (Supply Zone)
The last buying region (bullish candle/cluster) before a strong downward move.
Institutions and large players place heavy orders in these regions. Typical price behavior:
- Price moves away from the zone.
- Later returns to the same zone to fill unfilled orders.
- Then continues the larger trend.
In the script:
- If `pl` (pivot low) forms → a Bullish OB is created.
- If `ph` (pivot high) forms → a Bearish OB is created.
The box is drawn:
- From `bar_index ` to `bar_index`.
- Between `low ` and `high `.
- `extend=extend.right` extends the OB into the future, so it acts as a dynamic support/resistance zone.
- Only the last 4 OB boxes are kept to avoid clutter.
### 3.2 Order Block Color Guide
- Semi-transparent Green (`c_ob_bull`)
- Represents a Bullish Order Block (Demand Zone).
- Interpretation: a price region with a high probability of bullish reaction.
- Semi-transparent Red (`c_ob_bear`)
- Represents a Bearish Order Block (Supply Zone).
- Interpretation: a price region with a high probability of bearish reaction.
Overlap (Multiple OBs in the Same Area)
When two or more Order Blocks overlap:
- The shared area appears visually denser/stronger.
- This suggests higher order density.
- Such zones can be treated as high-priority levels for entries, exits, and stop-loss placement.
### 3.3 Demand/Supply Logic in the Scoring Engine
is_in_demand = low <= ta.lowest(low, 20)
is_in_supply = high >= ta.highest(high, 20)
- If current price is near the lowest lows of the last 20 bars, it is considered in a Demand Zone → positive impact on score.
- If current price is near the highest highs of the last 20 bars, it is considered in a Supply Zone → negative impact on score.
This logic complements Order Blocks and helps the Dashboard distinguish whether:
- Market is currently in a statistically cheap (long-friendly) area, or
- In a statistically expensive (short-friendly) area.
### 3.4 Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
#### Concept
When the market moves aggressively:
- Some price levels are skipped and never traded.
- A gap between wicks/shadows of consecutive candles appears.
- These regions are called Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) or Imbalances.
The market generally “dislikes” imbalance and often:
- Returns to these zones in the future.
- Fills the gap (rebalance).
- Then resumes its dominant direction.
#### Implementation in the Code
Bullish FVG (Yellow)
fvg_bull_cond = show_smc and show_fvg and low > high and close > high
if fvg_bull_cond
box.new(bar_index , high , bar_index, low, ...)
Core condition:
`low > high ` → the current low is above the high of two bars ago; the space between them is an untraded gap.
Bearish FVG (Purple)
fvg_bear_cond = show_smc and show_fvg and high < low and close < low
if fvg_bear_cond
box.new(bar_index , low , bar_index, high, ...)
Core condition:
`high < low ` → the current high is below the low of two bars ago; again a price gap exists.
#### FVG Color Guide
- Transparent Yellow (`c_fvg_bull`) – Bullish FVG
Often acts like a magnet for price:
- Price tends to retrace into this zone,
- Fill the imbalance,
- And then continue higher.
- Transparent Purple (`c_fvg_bear`) – Bearish FVG
Price tends to:
- Retrace upward into the purple area,
- Fill the imbalance,
- And then resume downward movement.
#### Trading with FVGs
- FVGs are *not* standalone entry signals.
They are best used as:
- Targets (take-profit zones), or
- Reaction areas where you expect a pause or reversal.
Examples:
- If you are long, a bearish FVG above is often an excellent take-profit zone.
- If you are short, a bullish FVG below is often a good cover/exit zone.
### 3.5 Core SMC Trading Templates
#### Reversal Long
1. Price trades down into a green Order Block (Demand Zone).
2. A bullish confirmation candle (Close > Open) forms inside or just above the OB.
3. If this zone is close to or aligned with a bullish FVG (yellow), the signal is reinforced.
4. Entry:
- At the close of the confirmation candle, or
- Using a limit order near the upper boundary of the OB.
5. Stop-loss:
- Slightly below the OB.
- If the OB is broken decisively and price consolidates below it, the zone loses validity.
6. Targets:
- The next FVG,
- Or the next red Order Block (Supply Zone) above.
#### Reversal Short
The mirror scenario:
- Price rallies into a red Order Block (Supply).
- A bearish confirmation candle forms (Close < Open).
- FVG/premium structure above can act as a confluence.
- Stop-loss goes above the OB.
- Targets: lower FVGs or subsequent green OBs below.
## Chapter 4 – Smart DCA Strategy (RSI + Bollinger Bands)
### 4.1 Smart DCA Concept
- Classic DCA = buying at fixed time intervals regardless of price.
- Smart DCA = scaling in only when:
- Price is statistically cheaper than usual, and
- The market is in a clear oversold condition.
Code logic:
rsi_val = ta.rsi(close, rsi_len)
= ta.bb(close, bb_len, bb_mult)
dca_buy = show_dca and rsi_val < 30 and close < bb_lower
dca_sell = show_dca and rsi_val > 70 and close > bb_upper
Conditions:
- DCA Buy – Smart Scale-In Zone
- RSI < 30 → oversold.
- Close < lower Bollinger Band → price has broken below its typical volatility envelope.
- DCA Sell – Overbought/Distribution Zone
- RSI > 70 → overbought.
- Close > upper Bollinger Band → price is extended far above the mean.
### 4.2 Visual Representation on the Chart
- Green “DCA” Label Below Candle
- Shape: `labelup`.
- Color: lime background, white text.
- Meaning: statistically attractive level for laddered spot entries or short exits.
- Red “SELL” Label Above Candle
- Warning that the market is in an extended, overbought condition.
- Suitable for profit-taking on longs or considering short entries (with proper confluence and risk management).
- Light Green Background (`bgcolor`)
- When `dca_buy` is true, the candle background turns very light green (high transparency).
- This helps visually identify DCA Zones across the chart at a glance.
### 4.3 Practical Use in Trading
#### Spot Trading
Used to build a better average entry price:
- Every time a DCA label appears, allocate a fixed portion of capital (e.g., 2–5%).
- Combining DCA signals with:
- Green OBs (Demand Zones), and/or
- The Volume Profile POC
makes the zone structurally more important.
#### Futures Trading
- Longs
- Use DCA Buy signals as low-risk zones for opening or adding to longs when:
- Price is inside a green OB, or
- The Dashboard already leans LONG.
- Shorts
- Use DCA Sell signals as:
- Exit zones for longs, or
- Areas to initiate shorts with stops above structural highs.
## Chapter 5 – Volume Profile (Visible Range Simulation)
### 5.1 Concept
Traditional volume (histogram under the chart) shows volume over time.
Volume Profile shows volume by price level:
- At which prices has the highest trading activity occurred?
- Where did buyers and sellers agree the most (High Volume Nodes – HVNs)?
- Where did price move quickly due to low participation (Low Volume Nodes – LVNs)?
### 5.2 Implementation in the Script
Executed only when `show_vp` is enabled and on the last bar:
1. The last `vp_lookback` bars (default 150) are processed.
2. The minimum low and maximum high over this window define the price range.
3. This price range is divided into `vp_rows` segments (e.g., 30 rows).
4. For each row:
- All bars are scanned.
- If the mid-price `(high + low ) / 2` falls inside a row, that bar’s volume is added to the row total.
5. The row with the greatest volume is stored as `max_vol_idx` (the POC row).
6. For each row, a volume box is drawn on the right side of the chart.
### 5.3 Color Scheme
- Semi-transparent Orange
- The row with the maximum volume – the Point of Control (POC).
- Represents the strongest support/resistance level from a volume perspective.
- Semi-transparent Blue
- Other volume rows.
- The taller the bar → the higher the volume → the stronger the interest at that price band.
### 5.4 Trading Applications
- If price is above POC and retraces back into it:
→ POC often acts as support, suitable for long setups.
- If price is below POC and rallies into it:
→ POC often acts as resistance, suitable for short setups or profit-taking.
HVNs (Tall Blue Bars)
- Represent areas of equilibrium where the market has spent time and traded heavily.
- Price tends to consolidate here before choosing a direction.
LVNs (Short or Nearly Empty Bars)
- Represent low participation zones.
- Price often moves quickly through these areas – useful for targeting fast moves.
## Chapter 6 – Wyckoff Helper – Spring
### 6.1 Spring Concept
In the Wyckoff framework:
- A Spring is a false break of support.
- The market briefly trades below a well-defined support level, triggers stop losses,
then sharply reverses upward as institutional buyers absorb liquidity.
This movement:
- Clears out weak hands (retail sellers).
- Provides large players with liquidity to enter long positions.
- Often initiates a new uptrend.
### 6.2 Code Logic
Conditions for a Spring:
1. The current low is lower than the lowest low of the previous 50 bars
→ apparent break of a long-standing support.
2. The bar closes bullish (Close > Open)
→ the breakdown was rejected.
3. Volume is significantly elevated:
→ `volume > 2 × volume_MA` (Ultra Volume).
When all conditions are met and `show_wyc` is enabled:
- A pink diamond is plotted below the bar,
- With the label “Spring” – one of the strongest long signals in this system.
### 6.3 Trading Use
- After a valid Spring, markets frequently enter a meaningful bullish phase.
- The highest quality setups occur when:
- The Spring forms inside a green Order Block, and
- Near or on the Volume Profile POC.
Entries:
- At the close of the Spring bar, or
- On the first pullback into the mid-range of the Spring candle.
Stop-loss:
- Slightly below the Spring’s lowest point (wick low plus a small buffer).
## Chapter 7 – Confluence Engine & Dashboard
### 7.1 Scoring Logic
For each bar, the script:
1. Resets `score` to 0.
2. Adjusts the score based on different signals.
SMC Contribution
if show_smc
if is_in_demand
score += 1
if is_in_supply
score -= 1
- Being in Demand → `+1`
- Being in Supply → `-1`
DCA Contribution
if show_dca
if dca_buy
score += 2
if dca_sell
score -= 2
- DCA Buy → `+2` (strong, statistically driven long signal)
- DCA Sell → `-2`
Wyckoff Spring Contribution
if show_wyc
if wyc_spring
score += 2
- Spring → `+2` (entry of strong money)
### 7.2 Mapping Score to Dashboard Signal
- score ≥ 2 → STRONG LONG 🚀
Multiple bullish conditions aligned.
- score = 1 → WEAK LONG ↗
Some bullish bias, but only one layer clearly positive.
- score = 0 → NEUTRAL / WAIT
Rough balance between buying and selling forces; staying flat is usually preferable.
- score = -1 → WEAK SHORT ↘
Mild bearish bias, suited for cautious or short-term plays.
- score ≤ -2 → STRONG SHORT 🩸
Convergence of several bearish signals.
### 7.3 Dashboard Structure
The dashboard is a two-column table:
- Row 0
- Column 0: `"Mars Signals"` – black background, white text.
- Column 1: `"UIS v3.0"` – black background, yellow text.
- Row 1
- Column 0: `"Price:"` (light grey background).
- Column 1: current closing price (`close`) with a semi-transparent blue background.
- Row 2
- Column 0: `"SMC:"`
- Column 1:
- `"ON"` (green) if `show_smc = true`
- `"OFF"` (grey) otherwise.
- Row 3
- Column 0: `"DCA:"`
- Column 1:
- `"ON"` (green) if `show_dca = true`
- `"OFF"` (grey) otherwise.
- Row 4
- Column 0: `"Signal:"`
- Column 1: signal text (`status_txt`) with background color `status_col`
(green, red, teal, maroon, etc.)
- If `show_rec = false`, these cells are cleared.

## Chapter 9 – Timeframe-Based Trading Playbook
### 9.1 Timeframe Selection
- Scalping
- Timeframes: 1M, 5M, 15M
- Objective: fast intraday moves (minutes to a few hours).
- Recommendation: focus on SMC + Wyckoff.
Smart DCA on very low timeframes may introduce excessive noise.
- Day Trading
- Timeframes: 15M, 1H, 4H
- Provides a good balance between signal quality and frequency.
- Recommendation: use the full stack – SMC + DCA + Volume Profile + Wyckoff + Dashboard.
- Swing Trading & Position Investing
- Timeframes: Daily, Weekly
- Emphasis on Smart DCA + Volume Profile.
- SMC and Wyckoff are used mainly to fine-tune swing entries within larger trends.
### 9.2 Scenario A – Scalping Long
Example: 5-Minute Chart
1. Price is declining into a green OB (Bullish Demand).
2. A candle with a long lower wick and bullish close (Pin Bar / Rejection) forms inside the OB.
3. A Spring diamond appears below the same candle → very strong confluence.
4. The Dashboard shows at least WEAK LONG ↗, ideally STRONG LONG 🚀.
5. Entry:
- On the close of the confirmation candle, or
- On the first pullback into the mid-range of that candle.
6. Stop-loss:
- Slightly below the OB.
7. Targets:
- Nearby bearish FVG above, and/or
- The next red OB.
### 9.3 Scenario B – Day-Trading Short
Recommended Timeframes: 1H or 4H
1. The market completes a strong impulsive move upward.
2. Price enters a red Order Block (Supply).
3. In the same zone, a purple FVG appears or remains unfilled.
4. On a lower timeframe (e.g., 15M), RSI enters overbought territory and a DCA Sell signal appears.
5. The main timeframe Dashboard (1H) shows WEAK SHORT ↘ or STRONG SHORT 🩸.
Trade Plan
- Open a short near the upper boundary of the red OB.
- Place the stop above the OB or above the last swing high.
- Targets:
- A yellow FVG lower on the chart, and/or
- The next green OB (Demand) below.
### 9.4 Scenario C – Swing / Investment with Smart DCA
Timeframes: Daily / Weekly
1. On the daily or weekly chart, each time a green “DCA” label appears:
- Allocate a fixed fraction of your capital (e.g., 3–5%) to that asset.
2. Check whether this DCA zone aligns with the orange POC of the Volume Profile:
- If yes → the quality of the entry zone is significantly higher.
3. If the DCA signal sits inside a daily green OB, the probability of a medium-term bottom increases.
4. Always build the position laddered, never all-in at a single price.
Exits for investors:
- Near weekly red OBs or large purple FVG zones.
- Ideally via partial profit-taking rather than closing 100% at once.
### 9.5 Case Study 1 – BTCUSDT (15-Minute)
- Context: Price has sold off down towards 65,000 USD.
- A green OB had previously formed at that level.
- Near the lower boundary of this OB, a partially filled yellow FVG is present.
- As price returns to this region, a Spring appears.
- The Dashboard shifts from NEUTRAL / WAIT to WEAK LONG ↗.
Plan
- Enter a long near the OB low.
- Place stop below the Spring low.
- First target: a purple FVG around 66,200.
- Second (optional) target: the first red OB above that level.
### 9.6 Case Study 2 – Meme Coin (PEPE – 4H)
- After a strong pump, price enters a corrective phase.
- On the 4H chart, RSI drops below 30; price breaks below the lower Bollinger Band → a DCA label prints.
- The Volume Profile shows the POC at approximately the same level.
- The Dashboard displays STRONG LONG 🚀.
Plan
- Execute laddered buys in the combined DCA + POC zone.
- Place a protective stop below the last significant swing low.
- Target: an expected 20–30% upside move towards the next red OB or purple FVG.
## Chapter 10 – Risk Management, Psychology & Advanced Tuning
### 10.1 Risk Management
No signal, regardless of its strength, replaces risk control.
Recommendations:
- In futures, do not expose more than 1–3% of account equity to risk per trade.
- Adjust leverage to the volatility of the instrument (lower leverage for highly volatile altcoins).
- Place stop-losses in zones where the idea is clearly invalidated:
- Below/above the relevant Order Block or Spring, not randomly in the middle of the structure.
### 10.2 Market-Specific Parameter Tuning
- Calmer Markets (e.g., major FX pairs)
- `ob_period`: 3–5.
- `bb_mult`: 2.0 is usually sufficient.
- Highly Volatile Markets (Crypto, news-driven assets)
- `ob_period`: 7–10 to highlight only the most robust OBs.
- `bb_mult`: 2.5–3.0 so that only extreme deviations trigger DCA.
- `vol_ma_len`: increase (e.g., to ~30) so that Spring triggers only on truly exceptional
volume spikes.
### 10.3 Trading Psychology
- STRONG LONG 🚀 does not mean “risk-free”.
It means the probability of a successful long, given the model’s logic, is higher than average.
- Treat Mars Signals as a confirmation and context system, not a full replacement for your own decision-making.
- Example of disciplined thinking:
- The Dashboard prints STRONG LONG,
- But price is simultaneously testing a multi-month macro resistance or a major negative news event is imminent,
- In such cases, trade smaller, widen stops appropriately, or skip the trade.
## Chapter 11 – Technical Notes & FAQ
### 11.1 Does the Script Repaint?
- Order Blocks and Springs are based on completed pivot structures and confirmed candles.
- Until a pivot is confirmed, an OB does not exist; after confirmation, behavior is stable under classic SMC assumptions.
- The script is designed to be structurally consistent rather than repainting signals arbitrarily.
### 11.2 Computational Load of Volume Profile
- On the last bar, the script processes up to `vp_lookback` bars × `vp_rows` rows.
- On very low timeframes with heavy zooming, this can become demanding.
- If you experience performance issues:
- Reduce `vp_lookback` or `vp_rows`, or
- Temporarily disable Volume Profile (`show_vp = false`).
### 11.3 Multi-Timeframe Behavior
- This version of the script is not internally multi-timeframe.
All logic (OB, DCA, Spring, Volume Profile) is computed on the active timeframe only.
- Practical workflow:
- Analyze overall structure and key zones on higher timeframes (4H / Daily).
- Use lower timeframes (15M / 1H) with the same tool for timing entries and exits.

Liquidity Sweep + BOS Retest System — Prop Firm Edition🟦 Liquidity Sweep + BOS Retest System — Prop Firm Edition
A High-Probability Smart Money Strategy Built for NQ, ES, and Funding Accounts
🚀 Overview
The Liquidity Sweep + BOS Retest System (Prop Firm Edition) is a precision-engineered SMC strategy built specifically for prop firm traders. It mirrors institutional liquidity behavior and combines it with strict account-safe entry rules to help traders pass and maintain funding accounts with consistency.
Unlike typical indicators, this system waits for three confirmations — liquidity sweep, displacement, and a clean retest — before executing any trade. Every component is optimized for low drawdown, high R:R, and prop-firm-approved risk management.
Whether you’re trading Apex, TakeProfitTrader, FFF, or OneUp Trader, this system gives you a powerful mechanical framework that keeps you within rules while identifying the market’s highest-probability reversal zones.
🔥 Key Features
1. Liquidity Sweep Detection (Stop Hunt Logic)
Automatically identifies when price clears a previous swing high/low with a sweep confirmation candle.
✔ Filters noise
✔ Eliminates early entries
✔ Locks onto true liquidity grabs
2. Automatic Break of Structure (BOS) Confirmation
Price must show true displacement by breaking structure opposite the sweep direction.
✔ Confirms momentum shift
✔ Removes fake reversals
✔ Ensures institutional intent
3. Precision Retest Entry Model
The strategy enters only when price retests the BOS level at premium/discount pricing.
✔ Zero chasing
✔ Extremely tight stop loss placement
✔ Prop-firm-friendly controlled risk
4. Built-In Risk & Trade Management
SL set at swept liquidity
TP set by user-defined R:R multiplier
Optional session filter (NY Open by default)
One trade at a time (no pyramiding)
Automatically resets logic after each trade
This prevents overtrading — the #1 cause of evaluation and account breaches.
5. Designed for Prop Firm Futures Trading
This script is optimized for:
Trailing/static drawdown accounts
Micro contract precision
Funding evaluations
Low-risk, high-probability setups
Structured, rule-based execution
It reduces randomness and emotional trading by automating the highest-quality SMC sequence.
🎯 The Trading Model Behind the System
Step 1 — Liquidity Sweep
Price must take out a recent high/low and close back inside structure.
This confirms stop-hunting behavior and marks the beginning of a potential reversal.
Step 2 — BOS (Break of Structure)
Price must break the opposite side swing with a displacement candle. This validates a directional shift.
Step 3 — Retest Entry
The system waits for price to retrace into the BOS level and signal continuation.
This creates optimal R:R entry with minimal drawdown.

BTC CME Gaps Detector [SwissAlgo]BTC CME Gaps Detector
Track Unfilled Gaps & Identify Price Magnets
------------------------------------------------------
Overview
The BTC CME Gap Detector identifies and tracks unfilled price gaps on any timeframe (1-minute recommended for scalping) to gauge potential trading bias.
Verify Gap Behavior Yourself : Use TradingView's Replay Mode on the 1-Minute chart to observe how the price interacts with gaps. Load the BTC1! ticker (Bitcoin CME Futures), enable Replay Mode, and play forward through time (for example: go back 15 days). You may observe patterns such as price frequently returning to fill gaps, nearest gaps acting as near-term targets, and gaps serving as potential support/resistance zones. Some gaps may fill quickly, while others may remain open for longer periods. This hands-on analysis lets you independently assess how gaps may influence price movement in real market conditions and whether you may use this indicator as a complement to your trading analysis.
------------------------------------------------------
Purpose
Price gaps occur when there is a discontinuity between consecutive candles - when the current candle's low is above the previous candle's high (gap up), or when the current candle's high is below the previous candle's low (gap down).
This indicator identifies and tracks these gaps on any timeframe to help traders:
Identify gap zones that may attract price (potential "price magnets")
Monitor gap fill progression
Assess potential directional bias based on nearest unfilled gaps (long, short)
Analyze market structure and liquidity imbalances
------------------------------------------------------
Why Use This Indicator?
Universal Gap Detection : Identifies all gaps on any timeframe (1-minute, hourly, daily, etc.)
Multi-Candle Mitigation Tracking : Detects gap fills that occur across multiple candles
Distance Analysis : Shows percentage distance to nearest bullish and bearish gaps
Visual Representation : Color-coded boxes indicate gap status (active vs. mitigated)
Age Filtering : Option to display only gaps within specified time periods (3/6/12/24 months), as older gaps may lose relevance
ATR-Based Sizing : Minimum gap size adjusts to instrument volatility to filter noise (i.e. small gaps)
------------------------------------------------------
Trading Concept
Gaps represent price zones where no trading occurred. Historical market behavior suggests that unfilled gaps may attract price action as markets tend to revisit areas of incomplete price discovery. This phenomenon creates potential trading opportunities:
Bullish gaps (above current price) may act as upside targets where the price could move to fill the gap
Bearish gaps (below current price) may act as downside targets where price could move to fill the gap
The nearest gap often provides directional bias, as closer gaps may have a higher probability of being filled in the near term
This indicator helps quantify gap proximity and provides a visual reference for these potential target zones.
EXAMPLE
Step 1: Bearish Gaps Appear Below Price
Step 2: Price Getting Close to Fill Gap
Step 3: Gap Mitigated Gap
------------------------------------------------------
Recommended Setup
Timeframe: 1-minute chart recommended for maximum gap detection frequency. Works on all timeframes (higher timeframes will show fewer, larger gaps).
Symbol: Any tradable instrument. Originally designed for BTC1! (CME Bitcoin Futures) but compatible with all symbols.
Settings:
ATR Length: 14 (default)
Min Gap Size: 0.5x ATR (adjust based on timeframe and noise level)
Gap Age Limit: 3 months (configurable)
Max Historical Gaps: 300 (adjustable 1-500)
------------------------------------------------------
How It Works
Gap Detection : Identifies price discontinuities on every candle where:
Gap up: current candle low > previous candle high
Gap down: current candle high < previous candle low
Minimum gap size filter (ATR-based) eliminates insignificant gaps
Mitigation Tracking : Monitors when price touches both gap boundaries. A gap is marked as filled when the price has touched both the top and bottom of the gap zone, even if this occurs across multiple candles.
Visual Elements :
Green boxes: Unfilled gaps above current price (potential bullish targets)
Red boxes: Unfilled gaps below current price (potential bearish targets)
Gray boxes: Filled gaps (historical reference)
Labels: Display gap type, price level, and distance percentage
Analysis Table: Shows :
Distance % to nearest bullish gap (above price)
Distance % to nearest bearish gap (below price)
Trade bias (LONG if nearest gap is above, SHORT if nearest gap is below)
------------------------------------------------------
Key Features
Detects gaps on any timeframe (1m, 5m, 1h, 1D, etc.)
Boxes extend 500 bars forward for active gaps, stop at the fill bar for mitigated gaps
Real-time distance calculations update on every candle
Configurable age filter removes outdated gaps
ATR multiplier ensures gap detection adapts to market volatility and timeframe

It does not constitute financial advice, investment recommendations, or trading signals. The concept that gaps attract price is based on historical observation and does not guarantee future results.
Gap fills are not certain - gaps may remain unfilled indefinitely, or the price may reverse before reaching a gap. This indicator should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions.
All trading involves substantial risk, including the potential loss of principal. Users should conduct their own research, apply proper risk management, test strategies thoroughly, and consult with qualified financial professionals before making trading decisions.

ES VIX on MNQ🧭 ES + VIX Overlay on MNQ
This indicator overlays the ES (S&P 500 futures) and VIX (Volatility Index) directly on the MNQ (Micro Nasdaq Futures) chart, allowing traders to visualize in real time the correlation, divergence, and volatility influence between the three instruments.
⸻
⚙️ How It Works
• The VIX is dynamically rescaled to the MNQ’s daily open, so its moves appear on the same price scale.
• The ES line is projected based on its percentage move relative to the session open (18:00 NY).
• Both are plotted in sync with MNQ to expose relative strength and divergence zones that often precede strong directional moves.
⸻
🧩 Inputs
• VIX Symbol: choose between VIX, CBOE:VIX, TVC:VIX
• Invert VIX Correlation: flips the VIX line for inverse-correlation setups
• VIX Step: controls how sensitively the VIX moves on the MNQ scale
• ES Symbol: defines the ES contract (e.g. ES1!)
• Show Signals: toggles on/off buy & sell markers
• Step (points): minimum distance between MNQ and VIX for a valid signal
• Block Signals: disables signals between 16:15 – 03:15 (illiquid hours)
⸻
💡 Signal Logic
The system tracks crossings between MNQ and the projected VIX line:
• Buy signal → when MNQ crosses above the VIX and expands upward by ≥ X points.
• Sell signal → when MNQ crosses below the VIX and expands downward by ≥ X points.
A time filter avoids noise during low-volume sessions.
⸻
📊 Visual Guide
• Cyan line = VIX on MNQ scale
• Orange line = ES on MNQ scale
• Labels on the right = current VIX / ES values
• BUY/SELL markers = potential volatility-based reversals
⸻
🚀 Practical Use
Perfect for traders who monitor:
• VIX–price divergence
• ES vs MNQ momentum confirmation
• Early volatility expansions before trend moves
⸻
💬 Core Idea:
“Volatility leads — price confirms.”
Intraday Perpetual Premium & Z-ScoreThis indicator measures the real-time premium of a perpetual futures contract relative to its spot market and interprets it through a statistical lens.
It helps traders detect when funding pressure is building, when leverage is being unwound, and when crowding in the futures market may precede volatility.
How it works
• Premium (%) = (Perp – Spot) ÷ Spot × 100
The script fetches both spot and perpetual prices and calculates their percentage difference each minute.
• Rolling Mean & Z-Score
Over a 4-hour look-back, it computes the average premium and standard deviation to derive a Z-Score, showing how stretched current sentiment is.
• Dynamic ±2σ Bands highlight statistically extreme premiums or discounts.
• Rate of Change (ROC) over one hour gauges the short-term directional acceleration of funding flows.
Colour & Label Interpretation
Visual cue Meaning Trading Implication
🟢 Green bars + “BULL Pressure” Premium rising faster than mean Leverage inflows → momentum strengthening
🔴 Red bars + “BEAR Pressure” Premium shrinking Leverage unwind → pull-back or consolidation
⚠️ Orange “EXTREME Premium/Discount” Crowded trade → heightened reversal risk
⚪ Grey bars Neutral Balanced conditions
Alerts
• Bull Pressure Alert → funding & premium rising (momentum building)
• Bear Pressure Alert → premium falling (deleveraging)
• Extreme Premium Alert → crowded longs; potential top
• Extreme Discount Alert → capitulation; possible bottom
Use case
Combine this indicator with your Heikin-Ashi, RSI, and MACD confluence rules:
• Enter only when your oscillators are low → curling up and Bull Pressure triggers.
• Trim or exit when Bear Pressure or Extreme Premium appears.
• Watch for Extreme Discount during flushes as an early bottoming clue.
HEK Dinamik Fiyat Kanalı Stratejisi v1HEK Dynamic Price Channel Strategy
Concept
The HEK Dynamic Price Channel provides a channel structure that expands and contracts according to price momentum and time-based equilibrium.
Unlike fixed-band systems, it evaluates the interaction between price and its balance line through an adaptive channel width that dynamically adjusts to changing market conditions.
How It Works
When the price reacts to the midline, the channel bands automatically reposition themselves.
Touching the upper band indicates a strengthening trend, while touching the lower band signals weakening momentum.
This adaptive mechanism helps filter out false signals during sudden directional changes, enhancing overall signal quality.
Advantages
✅ Maintains trend continuity while avoiding overtrading.
✅ Automatically adapts to changing volatility conditions.
✅ Detects early signals of short- and mid-term trend reversals.
Applications
Directional confirmation in spot and futures markets.
A supporting tool in channel breakout strategies.
Identifying price consolidation and equilibrium zones.
Note
This strategy is intended for educational and research purposes only.
It should not be considered financial advice. Always consult a professional financial advisor before making investment decisions.

EMA100 Breakout by shubhThis indicator is a clean, price-action-based breakout system designed for disciplined trend trading on any timeframe — especially for Nifty and Bank Nifty spot, futures, and options charts.
It uses a single 100-period EMA to define trend direction and waits for decisive candle closes across the EMA to trigger potential entries.
The logic ensures only one active trade at a time, enforcing patience and clarity in decision-making.
⚙️ Core Logic
Buy Setup
A bullish candle closes above the 100 EMA while its open was below the EMA.
Entry occurs at candle close.
Stop-Loss (SL): Low of the signal candle.
Target (TP): 4 × the SL distance (Risk : Reward = 1 : 4).
Sell Setup
A bearish candle closes below the 100 EMA while its open was above the EMA.
Entry occurs at candle close.
Stop-Loss (SL): High of the signal candle.
Target (TP): 4 × the SL distance.
Trade Management
Only one trade may run at a time (either long or short).
New signals are ignored until the current position hits SL or TP.
Transparent labels show Entry, SL, and TP levels on chart.
Dotted lines visualize active Stop-Loss (red) and Target (green).
Exit markers:
✅ Target Hit
❌ Stop Loss Hit
🧠 Key Advantages
Simple and transparent trend-following logic.
Enforces disciplined “one-trade-at-a-time” behavior.
High risk-to-reward (1 : 4).
Works across timeframes — 5 min to Daily.
Ideal for intraday and positional setups.
📊 Suggested Use
Apply on Nifty / Bank Nifty spot or futures charts.
Works on any instrument with clear momentum swings.
Best confirmation when EMA 100 acts as dynamic support/resistance.

US/SPY- Financial Regime Index Swing Strategy Credits: concept inspired by EdgeTools Bloomberg Financial Conditions Index (Proxy)
Improvements: eight component basket, inverse volatility weights, winsorization option( statistical technique used to limit the influence of outliers in a dataset by replacing extreme values with less extreme ones, rather than removing them entirely), slope and price gates, exit guards, table and gradients.
Summary in one paragraph
A macro regime swing strategy for index ETFs, futures, FX majors, and large cap equities on daily calculation with optional lower time execution. It acts only when a composite Financial Conditions proxy plus slope and an optional price filter align. Originality comes from an eight component macro basket with inverse volatility weights and winsorized return z scores that produce a portable yardstick.
Scope and intent
Markets: SPY and peers, ES futures, ACWI, liquid FX majors, BTC, large cap equities.
Timeframes: calculation daily by default, trade on any chart.
Default demo: SPY on Daily.
Purpose: convert broad financial conditions into clear swing bias and exits.
Originality and usefulness
Unique fusion: return z scores for eight liquid proxies with inverse volatility weighting and optional winsorization, then slope and price gates.
Failure mode addressed: false starts in chop and early shorts during easy liquidity.
Testability: all knobs are inputs and the table shows components and weights.
Portable yardstick: z scores center at zero so thresholds transfer across symbols.
Method overview in plain language
Base measures
Return basis: natural log return over a configurable window, standardized to a z score. Winsorization optional to cap extremes.
Components
EQ US and EQ GLB measure equity tone.
CREDIT uses LQD over HYG. Higher credit quality outperformance is risk off so sign is flipped after z score.
RATES2Y uses two year yield, sign flipped.
SLOPE uses ten minus two year yield spread.
USD uses DXY, sign flipped.
VOL uses VIX, sign flipped.
LIQ uses BIL over SPY, sign flipped.
Each component is smoothed by the composite EMA.
Fusion rule
Weighted sum where weights are equal or inverse volatility with exponent gamma, normalized to percent so they sum to one.
Signal rule
Long when composite crosses up the long threshold and its slope is positive and price is above the SMA filter, or when composite is above the configured always long floor.
Short when composite crosses down the short threshold and its slope is negative and price is below the SMA filter.
Long exit on cross down of the long exit line or on a fresh short signal.
Short exit on cross up of the short exit line or on a fresh long signal, or when composite falls below the force short exit guard.
What you will see on the chart
Markers on suggestion bars: L for long, S for short, LX and SX for exits.
Reference lines at zero and soft regime bands at plus one and minus one.
Optional background gradient by regime intensity.
Compact table with component z, weight percent, and composite readout.
Table fields and quick reading guide
Component: EQ US, EQ GLB, CREDIT, RATES2Y, SLOPE, USD, VOL, LIQ.
Z: current standardized value, green for positive risk tone where applicable.
Weight: contribution percent after normalization.
Composite: current index value.
Reading tip: a broadly green Z column with slope positive often precedes better long context.
Inputs with guidance
Setup
Calc timeframe: default Daily. Leave blank to inherit chart.
Lookback: 50 to 1500. Larger length stabilizes regimes and delays turns.
EMA smoothing: 1 to 200. Higher smooths noise and delays signals.
Normalization
Winsorize z at ±3: caps extremes to reduce one off shocks.
Return window for equities: 5 to 260. Shorter reacts faster.
Weighting
Weight lookback: 20 to 520.
Weight mode: Equal or InvVol.
InvVol exponent gamma: 0.1 to 3. Higher compresses noisy components more.
Signals
Trade side: Long Short or Both.
Entry threshold long and short: portable z thresholds.
Exit line long and short: soft exits that give back less.
Slope lookback bars: 1 to 20.
Always long floor bfci ≥ X: macro easy mode keep long.
Force short exit when bfci < Y: macro stress guard.
Confirm
Use price trend filter and Price SMA length.
View
Glow line and Show component table.
Symbols
SPY ACWI HYG LQD VIX DXY US02Y US10Y BIL are defaults and can be changed.
Realism and responsible publication
No performance claims. Past is not future.
Shapes can move intrabar and settle on close.
Execution is on standard candles only.
Honest limitations and failure modes
Major economic releases and illiquid sessions can break assumptions.
Very quiet regimes reduce contrast. Use longer windows or higher thresholds.
Component proxies are ETFs and indexes and cannot match a proprietary FCI exactly.
Strategy notice
Orders are simulated on standard candles. All security calls use lookahead off. Nonstandard chart types are not supported for strategies.
Entries and exits
Long rule: bfci cross above long threshold with positive slope and optional price filter OR bfci above the always long floor.
Short rule: bfci cross below short threshold with negative slope and optional price filter.
Exit rules: long exit on bfci cross below long exit or on a short signal. Short exit on bfci cross above short exit or on a long signal or on force close guard.
Position sizing
Percent of equity by default. Keep target risk per trade low. One percent is a sensible starting point. For this example we used 3% of the total capital
Commisions
We used a 0.05% comission and 5 tick slippage

RightFlow Universal Volume Profile - Any Market Any TimeframeSummary in one paragraph
RightFlow is a right anchored microstructure volume profile for stocks, futures, FX, and liquid crypto on intraday and daily timeframes. It acts only when several conditions align inside a session window and presents the result as a compact right side profile with value area, POC, a bull bear mix by price bin, and a HUD of profile VWAP and pressure shares. It is original because it distributes each bar’s weight into multiple mid price slices, blends bull bear pressure per bin with a CLV based split, and grows the profile to the right so price action stays readable. Add to a clean chart, read the table, and use the visuals. For conservative workflows read on bar close.
Scope and intent
• Markets. Major FX pairs, index futures, large cap equities and ETFs, liquid crypto.
• Timeframes. One minute to daily.
• Default demo used in the publication. SPY on 15 minute.
• Purpose. See where participation concentrates, which side dominated by price level, and how far price sits from VA and POC.
Originality and usefulness
• Unique fusion. Right anchored growth plus per bar slicing and CLV split, with weight modes Raw, Notional, and DeltaProxy.
• Failure mode addressed. False reads from single bar direction and coarse binning.
• Testability. All parts sit in Inputs and the HUD.
• Portable yardstick. Value Area percent and POC are universal across symbols.
• Protected scripts. Not applicable. Method and use are fully disclosed.
Method overview in plain language
Pick a scope Rolling or Today or This Week. Define a window and number of price bins. For each bar, split its range into small slices, assign each slice a weight from the selected mode, and split that weight by CLV or by bar direction. Accumulate totals per bin. Find the bin with the highest total as POC. Expand left and right until the chosen share of total volume is covered to form the value area. Compute profile VWAP for all, buyers, and sellers and show them with pressure shares.
Base measures
Range basis. High minus low and mid price samples across the bar window.
Return basis. Not used. VWAP trio is price weighted by weights.
Components
• RightFlow Bins. Price histogram that grows to the right.
• Bull Bear Split. CLV based 0 to 1 share or pure bar direction.
• Weight Mode. Raw volume, notional volume times close, or DeltaProxy focus.
• Value Area Engine. POC then outward expansion to target share.
• HUD. Profile VWAP, Buy and Sell percent, winner delta, split and weight mode.
• Session windows optional. Scope resets on day or week.
Fusion rule
Color of each bin is the convex blend of bull and bear shares. Value area shading is lighter inside and darker outside.
Signal rule
This is context, not a trade signal. A strong separation between buy and sell percent with price holding inside VA often confirms balance. Price outside VA with skewed pressure often marks initiative moves.
What you will see on the chart
• Right side bins with blended colors.
• A POC line across the profile width.
• Labels for POC, VAH, and VAL.
• A compact HUD table in the top right.
Table fields and quick reading guide
• VWAP. Profile VWAP.
• Buy and Sell. Pressure shares in percent.
• Delta Winner. Winner side and margin in percent.
• Split and Weight. The active modes.
Reading tip. When Session scope is Today or This Week and Buy minus Sell is clearly positive or negative, that side often controls the day’s narrative.
Inputs with guidance
Setup
• Profile scope. Rolling or session reset. Rolling uses window bars.
• Rolling window bars. Typical 100 to 300. Larger is smoother.
Binning
• Price bins. Typical 32 to 128. More bins increase detail.
• Slices per bar. Typical 3 to 7. Raising it smooths distribution.
Weighting
• Weight mode. Raw, Notional, DeltaProxy. Notional emphasizes expensive prints.
• Bull Bear split. CLV or BarDir. CLV is more nuanced.
• Value Area percent. Typical 68 to 75.
View
• Profile width in bars, color split toggle, value area shading, opacities, POC line, VA labels.
Usage recipes
Intraday trend focus
• Scope Today, bins 64, slices 5, Value Area 70.
• Split CLV, Weight Notional.
Intraday mean reversion
• Scope Today, bins 96, Value Area 75.
• Watch fades back to POC after initiative pushes.
Swing continuation
• Scope Rolling 200 bars, bins 48.
• Use Buy Sell skew with price relative to VA.
Realism and responsible publication
No performance claims. Shapes can move while a bar forms and settle on close. Education only.
Honest limitations and failure modes
Thin liquidity and data gaps can distort bin weights. Very quiet regimes reduce contrast. Session time is the chart venue time.
Open source reuse and credits
None.

A) Reversal de pression (contre-mouvement contrôlé)
Détection d’une sur-extension brutale suivie d’une absorption sur la bougie suivante.
Objectif : capturer la première respiration après un excès de prix (rejet court).
B) Continuation courte (momentum + reprise)
Détection de 3 bougies directionnelles consécutives suivies d’un pullback léger, puis signal sur la reprise du mouvement initial.
Gestion intégrée (scénario standard TP dynamique)
TP1 → 50% de la position à un gain fixe (% adaptable au timeframe)
Stop déplacé au Break-Even sur le restant
Sortie finale sur bougie inverse significative
(correction ≥ X% du corps précédent) ou timeout (max bars en trade)
Scalp BTC/ETH — Reversal & Continuation (1m to 10m)
This indicator detects short-term futures scalping setups on BTC & ETH using two mechanical price-action models designed for fast execution:
A) Reversal Compression (counter-move entry)
Identifies a sharp impulse (overextension) followed by absorption / failure to extend on the next candle.
Objective: capture the first corrective pullback after exhaustion.
B) Controlled Continuation (momentum follow-through)
Identifies 3 consecutive trend candles, then a shallow pullback, and triggers an entry on the resumption of the main leg.
Built-in trade logic (dynamic TP structure)
TP1 → scale out 50% of the position at a fixed percentage (auto-scaled per timeframe)
Stop moved to Break-Even after TP1
Final exit on either:
• a meaningful opposite candle (≥ X% correction of prior body), or
• a timeout (max bars in trade)
Technical characteristics
Designed for 1m / 3m / 5m / 7m / 10m
No repainting (bar-close confirmed logic)
Works for both LONG & SHORT
Built-in alert events:
ENTRY_LONG / ENTRY_SHORT / TP1 / EXIT_STOP / EXIT_INVERSE / EXIT_TIMEOUT
Suitable for manual execution, semi-automation (alerts) or full bot integration (webhook JSON)
Purpose
Provide a repeatable, rule-based, non-subjective framework to harvest micro-moves with controlled risk, without relying on lagging indicators or long-term prediction.

Hyper SAR Reactor Trend StrategyHyperSAR Reactor Adaptive PSAR Strategy
Summary
Adaptive Parabolic SAR strategy for liquid stocks, ETFs, futures, and crypto across intraday to daily timeframes. It acts only when an adaptive trail flips and confirmation gates agree. Originality comes from a logistic boost of the SAR acceleration using drift versus ATR, plus ATR hysteresis, inertia on the trail, and a bear-only gate for shorts. Add to a clean chart and run on bar close for conservative alerts.
Scope and intent
• Markets: large cap equities and ETFs, index futures, major FX, liquid crypto
• Timeframes: one minute to daily
• Default demo: BTC on 60 minute
• Purpose: faster yet calmer PSAR that resists chop and improves short discipline
• Limits: this is a strategy that places simulated orders on standard candles
Originality and usefulness
• Novel fusion: PSAR AF is boosted by a logistic function of normalized drift, trail is monotone with inertia, entries use ATR buffers and optional cooldown, shorts are allowed only in a bear bias
• Addresses false flips in low volatility and weak downtrends
• All controls are exposed in Inputs for testability
• Yardstick: ATR normalizes drift so settings port across symbols
• Open source. No links. No solicitation
Method overview
Components
• Adaptive AF: base step plus boost factor times logistic strength
• Trail inertia: one sided blend that keeps the SAR monotone
• Flip hysteresis: price must clear SAR by a buffer times ATR
• Volatility gate: ATR over its mean must exceed a ratio
• Bear bias for shorts: price below EMA of length 91 with negative slope window 54
• Cooldown bars optional after any entry
• Visual SAR smoothing is cosmetic and does not drive orders
Fusion rule
Entry requires the internal flip plus all enabled gates. No weighted scores.
Signal rule
• Long when trend flips up and close is above SAR plus buffer times ATR and gates pass
• Short when trend flips down and close is below SAR minus buffer times ATR and gates pass
• Exit uses SAR as stop and optional ATR take profit per side

TriAnchor Elastic Reversion US Market SPY and QQQ adaptedSummary in one paragraph
Mean-reversion strategy for liquid ETFs, index futures, large-cap equities, and major crypto on intraday to daily timeframes. It waits for three anchored VWAP stretches to become statistically extreme, aligns with bar-shape and breadth, and fades the move. Originality comes from fusing daily, weekly, and monthly AVWAP distances into a single ATR-normalized energy percentile, then gating with a robust Z-score and a session-safe gap filter.
Scope and intent
• Markets: SPY QQQ IWM NDX large caps liquid futures liquid crypto
• Timeframes: 5 min to 1 day
• Default demo: SPY on 60 min
• Purpose: fade stretched moves only when multi-anchor context and breadth agree
• Limits: strategy uses standard candles for signals and orders only
Originality and usefulness
• Unique fusion: tri-anchor AVWAP energy percentile plus robust Z of close plus shape-in-range gate plus breadth Z of SPY QQQ IWM
• Failure mode addressed: chasing extended moves and fading during index-wide thrusts
• Testability: each component is an input and visible in orders list via L and S tags
• Portable yardstick: distances are ATR-normalized so thresholds transfer across symbols
• Open source: method and implementation are disclosed for community review
Method overview in plain language
Base measures
• Range basis: ATR(length = atr_len) as the normalization unit
• Return basis: not used directly; we use rank statistics for stability
Components
• Tri-Anchor Energy: squared distances of price from daily, weekly, monthly AVWAPs, each divided by ATR, then summed and ranked to a percentile over base_len
• Robust Z of Close: median and MAD based Z to avoid outliers
• Shape Gate: position of close inside bar range to require capitulation for longs and exhaustion for shorts
• Breadth Gate: average robust Z of SPY QQQ IWM to avoid fading when the tape is one-sided
• Gap Shock: skip signals after large session gaps
Fusion rule
• All required gates must be true: Energy ≥ energy_trig_prc, |Robust Z| ≥ z_trig, Shape satisfied, Breadth confirmed, Gap filter clear
Signal rule
• Long: energy extreme, Z negative beyond threshold, close near bar low, breadth Z ≤ −breadth_z_ok
• Short: energy extreme, Z positive beyond threshold, close near bar high, breadth Z ≥ +breadth_z_ok
What you will see on the chart
• Standard strategy arrows for entries and exits
• Optional short-side brackets: ATR stop and ATR take profit if enabled
Inputs with guidance
Setup
• Base length: window for percentile ranks and medians. Typical 40 to 80. Longer smooths, shorter reacts.
• ATR length: normalization unit. Typical 10 to 20. Higher reduces noise.
• VWAP band stdev: volatility bands for anchors. Typical 2.0 to 4.0.
• Robust Z window: 40 to 100. Larger for stability.
• Robust Z entry magnitude: 1.2 to 2.2. Higher means stronger extremes only.
• Energy percentile trigger: 90 to 99.5. Higher limits signals to rare stretches.
• Bar close in range gate long: 0.05 to 0.25. Larger requires deeper capitulation for longs.
Regime and Breadth
• Use breadth gate: on when trading indices or broad ETFs.
• Breadth Z confirm magnitude: 0.8 to 1.8. Higher avoids fighting thrusts.
• Gap shock percent: 1.0 to 5.0. Larger allows more gaps to trade.
Risk — Short only
• Enable short SL TP: on to bracket shorts.
• Short ATR stop mult: 1.0 to 3.0.
• Short ATR take profit mult: 1.0 to 6.0.

ZS Game Changer Pump & Dump DetectorZS GAME CHANGER PUMP AND DUMP DETECTOR - TOP 2 MOMENTUM TRACKER
Created by Zakaria Safri
An intelligent indicator specifically designed to identify and highlight the two most significant pump and dump candles within your selected lookback period. Perfect for traders who want to focus on the game-changing moves that truly matter in volatile markets like cryptocurrency, stocks, and forex.
CORE FEATURES
AUTOMATIC GAME CHANGER DETECTION
The indicator continuously scans your specified lookback period and automatically identifies the top 2 strongest pump candles and top 2 strongest dump candles. These game-changing candles are highlighted with distinctive gold labels and horizontal reference lines, making them instantly visible on your chart. Unlike other indicators that show every small move, this focuses exclusively on the market-moving moments that define trends and create opportunities.
INTELLIGENT PUMP AND DUMP CLASSIFICATION
Uses advanced percentage-based calculations to classify candles as pumps when price surges significantly upward and dumps when price plunges sharply downward. The detection system accounts for candle body size, wick proportions, and volume confirmation to ensure only legitimate momentum moves trigger signals. Customizable thresholds allow adaptation to any market volatility profile from calm stocks to wild altcoins.
ADVANCED WICK EXCLUSION FILTER
Eliminates false signals caused by candles with large wicks and small bodies. This filter focuses analysis exclusively on candles with substantial body sizes that indicate genuine directional conviction rather than temporary spikes followed by rejection. The body to candle ratio is fully adjustable to match your preferred signal quality standards.
VOLUME CONFIRMATION SYSTEM
Optional volume filter ensures detected pumps and dumps are backed by real market participation. The indicator compares current volume against a moving average and only triggers signals when volume exceeds your specified multiplier threshold. This eliminates low-volume noise and focuses on moves supported by institutional or crowd participation.
RALLY SEQUENCE DETECTION
Identifies and highlights consecutive sequences of pump or dump candles with colored background overlays. Green background indicates sustained buying pressure across multiple candles while red background shows sustained selling pressure. The rally detection system includes an optional one-miss allowance that prevents the sequence from breaking due to a single neutral candle.
HORIZONTAL REFERENCE LINES
Draws dashed lines from each game changer candle extending to the current bar, providing constant visual reference to the most significant support and resistance levels created by extreme momentum. The top game changer gets a thick dashed line while the second gets a dotted line for easy differentiation. Labels on the right side display the exact percentage move.
COMPREHENSIVE STATISTICS DASHBOARD
Real-time information panel showing current market status as pumping, dumping, or neutral along with the current candle percentage change. Displays the exact percentage values for top pump number 1, top pump number 2, top dump number 1, and top dump number 2. Shows running totals of all pumps and dumps detected since chart load. Tracks consecutive candle counts during active rally sequences.
TESTING AND VERIFICATION MODE
Built-in debug mode displays percentage change directly on each qualifying pump and dump candle, allowing instant verification that calculations are accurate. Shows which filters are currently active with a simple code in the dashboard. Helps traders understand exactly why certain candles qualified as game changers.
HOW THE GAME CHANGER DETECTION WORKS
SCANNING ALGORITHM
Every bar close, the indicator scans backward through your specified lookback period examining every candle's percentage change from its previous close. For bullish moves, it identifies the two candles with the largest positive percentage change that meet your threshold requirements. For bearish moves, it identifies the two candles with the largest negative percentage change meeting threshold requirements.
RANKING SYSTEM
Candles are ranked purely by their percentage move magnitude. The number 1 game changer is always the single strongest move in the lookback period. The number 2 game changer is the second strongest move. Rankings update dynamically as new candles form and old candles exit the lookback window.
VISUAL IDENTIFICATION
Game changer number 1 for both pumps and dumps receives a large gold label reading GAME CHANGER NUMBER 1 with zero transparency for maximum visibility. Game changer number 2 receives a slightly smaller gold label with partial transparency. The candle bars themselves are colored in gold instead of the standard green or red. Horizontal lines extend from the game changer price level to current bar.
FILTER APPLICATION
Only candles that pass your configured filters qualify for game changer consideration. If wick exclusion is enabled, candles with large wicks and small bodies are ignored. If volume confirmation is enabled, only candles with above-average volume qualify. This ensures game changers represent legitimate market moves rather than aberrations.
PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS
FOR CRYPTOCURRENCY TRADERS
Crypto markets experience extreme volatility with occasional massive pump and dump candles that define entire trends. This indicator instantly identifies which candles represent true market structure shifts versus normal noise. Use the game changer levels as key support and resistance for entries, exits, and stop placement. The top pump often marks the local high to watch for breakouts while the top dump marks the local low for reversal trades.
FOR DAY TRADERS
Intraday charts contain hundreds of candles but only a few truly matter for the session outcome. Game changer detection filters out 98 percent of candles to show you the 2 percent that drove the actual price movement. Enter trades on the side of the strongest recent game changer. Use game changer levels as magnet prices where algorithmic trading often returns.
FOR SWING TRADERS
On daily and four-hour timeframes, game changers represent major institutional activity or news-driven moves. The top dump often marks capitulation selling that creates reversal opportunities. The top pump often marks FOMO buying that creates resistance levels. Swing traders can build positions knowing these levels will be defended or tested multiple times.
FOR VOLATILITY ANALYSIS
Understanding which candles created the most volatility helps assess market risk. Multiple game changers clustered together indicate unstable choppy conditions. Game changers separated by many neutral candles indicate trending stable conditions. Use this context to adjust position sizing and stop distances appropriately.
FOR SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE TRADING
Game changer candles create the strongest support and resistance levels because they represent prices where massive volume transacted in short time periods. These levels have higher probability of holding on retest compared to arbitrary moving averages or pivot points. Trade bounces off game changer levels or breakouts through them.

UNDERSTANDING GAME CHANGERS
WHAT MAKES A CANDLE A GAME CHANGER
A game changer is not just a large move but the largest move within context. In a volatile crypto market, a 5 percent pump might not rank in the top 2. In a stable stock, a 2 percent pump could be the number 1 game changer. The indicator adapts to your specific instrument and timeframe to find what truly matters in that context.
WHY FOCUS ON TOP 2 ONLY
Markets are driven by a small number of significant moves rather than the average of all moves. By focusing exclusively on the top 2 in each direction, traders can ignore noise and concentrate on the price levels that actually matter for support, resistance, and momentum. This creates clarity in decision making.
GAME CHANGERS AS MARKET STRUCTURE
The top pump often marks the recent high that bulls must break to continue uptrend. The top dump often marks the recent low that bears must break to continue downtrend. These become the key levels around which all other price action rotates. Understanding this structure is essential for profitable trading.
GAME CHANGERS AS SENTIMENT INDICATORS
Consecutive pump game changers signal strong bullish sentiment and FOMO conditions. Consecutive dump game changers signal fear and capitulation. Alternating pump and dump game changers signal indecision and range conditions. Read the pattern of game changers to gauge market psychology.
VERIFICATION AND TESTING
HOW TO VERIFY ACCURACY
Enable Show Debug Info on Chart in the Testing and Debug settings group. This displays the percentage change calculation directly on every qualifying pump and dump candle. Manually verify by calculating open minus close divided by close multiplied by 100. The debug percentage should match your manual calculation exactly.
HOW TO TEST FILTERS
Toggle wick exclusion filter on and off while watching how many candles qualify. With filter on, candles with long wicks and small bodies should disappear. Toggle volume confirmation on and off to see how low-volume candles get excluded. Adjust the thresholds and watch the real-time impact on signal count.
HOW TO VERIFY GAME CHANGERS
Look at your chart and visually identify which candle had the biggest green body in the lookback period. The game changer number 1 pump label should be on that exact candle. Repeat for the biggest red candle to verify game changer number 1 dump. The rankings should match your visual assessment.
LOOKBACK PERIOD EFFECTS
Decrease the lookback period to 20 bars and watch game changers update to only recent moves. Increase to 500 bars and watch game changers potentially change to older historic moves. The optimal lookback balances recency with significance. Too short misses important levels, too long includes irrelevant history.
DASHBOARD INFORMATION GUIDE
STATUS ROW
Shows PUMPING when current candle qualifies as a pump, DUMPING when current candle qualifies as a dump, or NEUTRAL when current candle does not meet threshold requirements. This updates in real-time on every bar close.
CURRENT CHANGE ROW
Displays the percentage change of the current candle from its previous close. Positive percentages indicate bullish candle, negative indicate bearish candle. This number may or may not meet your threshold to qualify as pump or dump.
TOP PUMP NUMBER 1
The highest positive percentage change found in your lookback period. This candle is marked with the large gold GAME CHANGER NUMBER 1 label below it. Shows N/A if no pumps exist in the lookback period.
TOP PUMP NUMBER 2
The second highest positive percentage change found in your lookback period. Marked with smaller gold GAME CHANGER NUMBER 2 label. Shows N/A if only one or zero pumps exist.
TOP DUMP NUMBER 1
The highest negative percentage change magnitude found in your lookback period. This candle is marked with the large gold GAME CHANGER NUMBER 1 label above it. Shows N/A if no dumps exist.
TOP DUMP NUMBER 2
The second highest negative percentage change magnitude found in your lookback period. Marked with smaller gold GAME CHANGER NUMBER 2 label. Shows N/A if only one or zero dumps exist.
TOTAL PUMPS
Running count of all pump candles detected since you loaded the indicator on this chart. This number continuously increases as new qualifying pumps form. Resets when you reload the chart.
TOTAL DUMPS
Running count of all dump candles detected since chart load. Increases as new qualifying dumps form and resets on chart reload.
CONSECUTIVE
Shows the current count of consecutive pump or dump candles during an active rally. Displays 3 UP during a 3-candle pump rally or 5 DN during a 5-candle dump rally. Shows 0 when no rally is active.
ALERT SYSTEM
GAME CHANGER DETECTED ALERT
Triggers whenever the current candle becomes one of the top 2 pumps or top 2 dumps. This is the highest priority alert indicating a market-moving event just occurred. Use this alert for immediate notification of significant opportunities.
PUMP DETECTED ALERT
Triggers on every candle that qualifies as a pump according to your threshold and filter settings. This includes regular pumps and extreme pumps but excludes game changers which have their separate alert. Use for general upward momentum monitoring.
DUMP DETECTED ALERT
Triggers on every candle that qualifies as a dump according to your settings. Includes regular and extreme dumps but excludes game changers. Use for general downward momentum monitoring.
PUMP RALLY STARTED ALERT
Triggers when consecutive pump candles reach your minimum rally threshold. Indicates the beginning of a sustained upward movement sequence. Use to catch trends early.
DUMP RALLY STARTED ALERT
Triggers when consecutive dump candles reach your minimum rally threshold. Indicates the beginning of a sustained downward movement sequence. Use for trend following or reversal timing.
ALERT MESSAGE FORMAT
All alerts include the ticker symbol and current price using TradingView placeholders. Messages are descriptive and specify which type of signal triggered. Alerts work with TradingView notification system including email, SMS, webhook, and app notifications.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
CALCULATION METHODOLOGY
Percentage change calculated as current close minus previous close divided by previous close multiplied by 100. Body ratio calculated as absolute value of close minus open divided by high minus low. Volume elevation calculated as current volume divided by 20-period simple moving average of volume. Game changer ranking uses absolute value comparison across entire lookback array.
PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS
Lightweight calculations optimized for speed on all timeframes. No repainting of signals ensuring all triggers are final on bar close. Variables properly scoped with var keyword for memory efficiency. Maximum bars back set to 500 to prevent excessive historical loading. Updates in real-time on every bar close without lag.
COMPATIBILITY
Works on all TradingView plans including free, pro, and premium. Compatible with stocks, forex, cryptocurrency, futures, indices, and commodities. Functions correctly on all timeframes from 1 second to monthly. No external data requests ensuring fast loading. Overlay true setting places directly on price chart.
RISK DISCLAIMER
This indicator is a technical analysis tool for identifying momentum and should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions. Game changer levels can be broken during strong trends and are not guaranteed support or resistance. Pump and dump detection does not predict future price direction. Always use proper risk management with stop losses on every trade. Combine this indicator with other forms of analysis including fundamentals, market context, and risk assessment. Practice on demo accounts before live trading. Past performance of game changer signals does not guarantee future results.

Niv Deal + Previ D W M + OPR + Asian🧭 Indicator Description (English)
Name: Niveaux Dealers + Previous D/W/M Auto + OPR + Asian Session
Platform: TradingView (Pine Script v6)
Type: Multi-module visual indicator for market structure and session ranges
🧩 Overview
This indicator combines three complementary modules to help traders visualize key market levels, opening ranges, and session dynamics — all in one comprehensive tool.
It is designed primarily for index and futures trading (e.g. NQ, ES, DAX), but can be applied to any market or timeframe.
MODULE 1 — Dealers Levels + Previous High/Low (Auto)
This first module automatically extracts and plots custom Dealer Levels and Previous Period Levels.
It can parse manually entered price levels (from a single text input) such as daily max/min, control levels, put supports, and call resistances — then draw horizontal lines and labels on the chart.
Features:
One text input for all dealer levels (easy copy-paste format).
Automatic parsing of prices from text (ignores irrelevant characters).
Groups of levels:
Maxima (Max 1D / Event / Extreme)
Minima (Min 1D / Event / Extreme)
Buyer/Seller Controls
Put Supports and Call Resistances
Independent color, style, and width for each line.
Transparent rectangular labels positioned perfectly on the levels.
Previous Daily, Weekly, and Monthly High/Low levels added automatically.
Optional summary table showing all levels and values in real time.
MODULE 2 — OPR (Opening Price Range)
The second module highlights the Opening Price Range, defined by the first 15 minutes (or any chosen period) of the trading session.
Features:
Fully configurable start and end time (local chart timezone).
Displays:
High, Low, and Midline (median)
Optional rectangle between high/low
Optional labels on each line
Independent color, line style, and thickness.
Works perfectly with non-standard sessions (e.g. 13:30–22:00 UTC for U.S. futures).
Uses local chart time instead of exchange time for intuitive control.
MODULE 3 — Asian Session Range
The third module draws the Asian trading session range, automatically detecting price action between configurable hours (default 17:00 → 01:00).
Features:
Adjustable start and end time (supports overnight sessions).
Plots Asian High, Asian Low, and Asian Middle (mid-range line).
Highlights the Asian box area with semi-transparent color.
Optional labels at the end of each level.
Fully synchronized with the chart’s local timezone (same logic as OPR).
Simple toggle to enable or disable the entire Asian module.
⚙️ Customization & Display
Each module can be toggled independently.
Colors, line styles (solid, dashed, dotted), and thickness are customizable.
Label visibility and extensions (left/right) can be adjusted.
The indicator is lightweight and optimized for real-time performance.
💡 Use Case
Traders can use this multi-module setup to:
Identify dealer reaction zones and institutional levels.
Track previous highs/lows for potential liquidity sweeps.
Monitor session ranges (Opening and Asian) for volatility shifts.
Combine all three perspectives (Dealer, Session, Historical) into one unified view.

MACD-V Adaptive FluxProMACD-V Adaptive FluxPro
Type: Multi-Factor Volatility-Normalized Momentum & Regime Framework
Overlay: ✅ Yes (on price chart)
Purpose: Detect high-probability trend continuation or reversal zones through volatility-adjusted momentum, VWAP structure, and adaptive filters.
🧩 Concept Overview
MACD-V Adaptive FluxPro is a next-generation, multi-factor analytical framework that merges the principles of Linda Raschke’s 3-10-16 MACD with modern volatility normalization and adaptive filtering.
Instead of generating raw buy/sell signals, it builds a probability-driven environment model — showing when price action, volatility, and structure align for high-confidence trades.
The “V” in MACD-V stands for Volatility Normalization: every MACD component is divided by ATR to stabilize amplitude across fast or slow markets.
This enables the indicator to remain consistent across timeframes, instruments, and volatility regimes.
⚙️ Core Components
1️⃣ Volatility-Normalized MACD (MACD-V)
A traditional MACD built on Linda Raschke’s 3-10-16 structure, but adjusted by ATR to create a volatility-invariant momentum profile.
You can toggle to alternative presets (Scalp / Swing / Trend) for faster or slower environments.
2️⃣ Dynamic Regime Detection
A slope-based classifier that identifies whether the market is:
Trend Up 🟢
Trend Down 🔴
Compression / Squeeze 🟧
Transition / Neutral ⚫
The background color updates dynamically as momentum, volatility, and slope shift between these states.
3️⃣ VWAP Structure Bands
Adaptive VWAP with inner and outer ATR-scaled envelopes.
These act as short-term mean-reversion and breakout zones.
The indicator can optionally gate entries to occur only within defined VWAP proximity.
4️⃣ EMAs for Micro-Trend Confirmation
Includes 9-EMA and 21-EMA, color-configurable for visual crossovers and short-term momentum bias.
5️⃣ Multi-Timeframe Confirmation Tiles
Top-center dashboard tiles display directional bias from higher timeframes (e.g., 15m / 1h / 4h).
When all align, it confirms multi-frame trend coherence.
6️⃣ Adaptive Probability Engine
All subsystems — MACD-V, slope, compression, volume z-score, and VWAP distance — feed into a logistic scoring model that outputs a real-time AOI Probability (0-100%).
When conditions align, probabilities rise above 60% (long bias) or drop below 40% (short bias).
These are your high-probability “Areas of Interest.”

Nq/ES daily CME risk intervalReverse engineering the risk interval for CME (Chicago Mercantile Exchange) products based on margin requirements involves understanding the relationship between margin requirements, volatility, and the risk interval (price movement assumed for margin calculation)
The CME uses a methodology called SPAN (Standard Portfolio Analysis of Risk) to calculate margins. At a high level, the initial margin is derived from:
Initial Margin = Risk Interval × Contract Size × Volatility Adjustment Factor
Where:
Risk Interval: The price movement range used in the margin calculation.
Contract Size: The unit size of the futures contract.
Volatility Adjustment Factor: A measure of how much price fluctuation is expected, often tied to historical volatility.
To calculate an approximate of the daily CME risk interval, we need:
Initial Margin Requirement: Available on the CME Group website or broker platforms.
Contract Size: The size of one futures contract (e.g., for the S&P 500 E-mini, it is $50 × index points).
Volatility Adjustment Factor: This is derived from historical volatility or CME's implied volatility estimates.
As we do not have access to CME calculations , the volatility adjustment factor can be estimated using historical volatility: We calculate the standard deviation of daily returns over a specific period (e.g., 20 or 30 or 60 days).
Key Considerations
The exact formulas and parameters used by CME for CME's implied volatility estimates are proprietary, so this calculation based on standard deviation of daily returns is an approximation.
How to use:
Input the maintenance margin obtained from the CME website.
Adjust volatility period calculation.

Session Opens by TradeSeekersIt doesn't get much simpler than this indicator for futures traders wanting to track four key session open prices.
Sessions
1. ETH open - extended hours starts
2. Midnight open - new calendar day starts
3. CME open - Chicago exchange opens, data releases
4. RTH open - regular trading hours, volume cometh
Usage
All four of these prices / areas are important for futures traders to pay attention to.
RTH opens far below ETH sometimes will retrace, CME and RTH together can act as a powerful range.
Midnight open sometimes has little importance for the day, but then again it's provided beautiful bounces. Again each level I find to be impactful nearly every session, so I like to keep them close by in an understated manner.
Timezone
If you're not EST, adjust the timezone string accordingly (refer to TradingView docs for string formats).
Proximity Detection
Also, I added proximity detection that aims to keep level collisions from occurring. If a particular session open isn't shown it may be due to being exactly the same price as another open or it's too close to another open.
The proximity sensitivity can be adjusted in settings. The on chart appearance doesn't impact the alerting capability.
Aesthetics
I don't like boring charts so I added a fun "glow" effect, I went with a palette that reminded me of clear sky colors at those times of day (if you're EST).
Alerting
Alerting can be done with just a single alert, first open the indicator config and uncheck any session opens you don't want to be alerted on (why!?), and then use the standard alert menus in TradingView to set the alert on "Any alert() function call".
Why does this beautiful indicator exist?
While there are a handful of indicators that plot open prices with some overlap to this one, I didn't see any that alerted automatically without much fuss.
Free Stock ScreenerMissing great trade opportunities is annoying, and unless you have 12 screens or only trade one market, you are missing a lot of trades. To fix that, we created this free stock screener so you get notified instantly of potential great trading conditions in real time, right on your chart.
You get notified of trading benchmarks being met by the value being displayed on the scanner as well as a color change so that it grabs your attention and makes you aware that you should take a look at the other market and look for a potential trade. It also has built in alerts so you can have an alert notification go off when any of your trading conditions are met instead of needing to watch the scanner for color changes.
The screener will change the ticker symbol background color to red green when price is above or below the previous daily range and above or below both VWAPs. This signals that the ticker is trending, which typically means it is a great time to trade that market and follow the trend.
This free stock screener allows you to scan up to 10 different markets at the same time for various different conditions so you always know what is going on with your favorite trading symbols. If you want to scan more tickers, just add the indicator to your chart again and change the table position to the other side of the screen and update the tickers on the 2nd screener, allowing you to have 20 tickers at a time.
The scanner can be fully customized by changing the markets that it screens and turning on or off as many of them as you would like. You can also turn on or off any of the different data sets so that you only get information about trading conditions that matter to you.
The screener can provide data on any type of market, such as stocks, crypto, futures, forex and more. Each ticker can be adjusted to whatever market you would like it to scan for data in the settings panel, the only limitation is that it will not provide data for the VWAP and volume trend score if the ticker you are screening does not provide volume data.
Screener Features
The scanner will provide the following types of data for each ticker that is turned on:
Volume - Provides a volume score compared to the average volume and notifies you of higher than normal volume and volume spikes on individual bars by changing colors.
Volatility - Provides a volatility score compared to the average volatility and notifies you of higher than normal volatility by changing colors.
Oscillator - Choose between the RSI or CCI. The value of that oscillator will be displayed and will notify you when values are in extreme ranges such as overbought or oversold conditions according to the threshold values you enter in the settings panel. When those thresholds have been breached, you will be notified by it changing color.
Big Candles - Compares the current candle to average previous candle sizes, and changes color to notify you of big candles including a big top wick, big bottom wick, big candle body and big candle high to low range.
Daily Level Touches & Trends - Calculates and displays various daily candle and intraday open price levels that act as support and resistance. Notifies you when price is touching any of the daily levels that are turned on. The levels you can have on are as follows: previous day high, previous day low or previous day open. It also will notify you when price is touching the current day’s open, NY 930am open, Asia 8pm open, London 2am open and NY midnight 12am open. It will also say “Above” if price is above the previous day’s high or it will say “Below” if price is below the previous day’s low. The color of the cell will also change when a level touch is happening or price is above the previous day high or below the previous day low.
VWAP - Choose from 2 different VWAP lengths, default settings are daily and weekly VWAPs. You will get notified if price touches either of the VWAPs and they will also say “Above” or “Below” if price is currently above or below each VWAP.
How To Use The Screener To Help You Trade
The main purpose of the screener is to scan other markets and notify you of potential good trading opportunities such as price bouncing off of the daily levels or VWAPs. It can also be used to know when price is trending according to the VWAPs and daily levels. Lastly, you can use it to know how the volume and volatility trends are currently which gives you more confidence in taking a trade with this data when volume and volatility are present.
Volume Score
When volume is high, this represents a good time to trade because there are many market participants and price is likely to be volatile while there is high volume which can present a lot of good trade setups for you to take.
The volume score shown on the screener measures the current volume trend compared to previous volume trends and calculates that into a score based on 100 being the same as the previous volume trend. So any value above 100 means it is high volume and any value less than 100 means it is lower volume than normal.
In the settings panel, you can adjust the volume threshold that needs to be met for a volume notification to show up. The default setting is at 120, so you will get notified when the current volume trend score is 120 or higher or you can adjust that threshold value to whatever value you prefer.
It also will notify you when there is a volume spike on the current bar. This is determined by calculating an average of the recent volume totals and then checking to see if the current bar is greater than or equal to that average multiplied by 3. So if a single bar has volume that is greater than 3 times what the average volume is, then you will get a notification that says “Spike” to make you aware of that volume spike.
The volume trend threshold, volume spike multiplier and lookback length for the average volume used in volume spike calculations can all be adjusted in the settings panel to fit your desired preferences.
Volatility Score
High volatility can mean it is a great time to trade because the market is moving quickly and providing large enough movements that you can get in and out in a short amount of time, while still accruing decent sized trade PnL.
The volatility score will calculate the current volatility for each market compared to previous conditions and then divide the current volatility by the average volatility to give you a volatility score. Anything over 100 means the market is decently volatile and you should look at that market to find potential trade setups to execute on. Anything below 100 means the market is not very volatile and it is usually best to just wait until volatility returns before you start trading again.
The screener will notify you when the volatility score is above the threshold you set. The default value is set to 90, but can be adjusted to your preference. Pay attention to any market that shows an alert and take a look at that chart because the high volatility may present a good trade setup for you in the near future.
Oscillator Score
The oscillator data can be switched between Relative Strength Index(RSI) and Commodity Channel Index(CCI).
The RSI provides a value between 0 and 100 that indicates the momentum and strength of the recent price action. Many traders use the extremes of the 0-100 range to signal overbought or oversold conditions and use that as a sign to look for price to reverse in the near future. The typical values used for this and the default settings to provide notifications are: 70 for overbought and 30 for oversold. The scanner will notify you when the RSI value is considered overbought or oversold so you know to take a look at the chart and analyze if it is ready for a trade to be taken.
The CCI provides a value that can be used to determine the trend strength of the underlying asset when the oscillator moves above 100 or below -100. These extreme values are outside of the normal accumulation range and signify that price is moving strongly in that direction so it may be a good time to take a trade in the direction of the trend. The scanner will show you the value of the CCI for each market and notify you if that value is above 100 or below -100.
Both RSI and CCI settings can be adjusted in the settings panel to your desired settings so you have the exact oscillator settings you prefer to use as well as the exact values that you want to use for being notified.
Big Candles
Big candles can mean that many traders are buying or selling at the same time and many times indicate a good signal to trade in that same direction. That is why we included this calculation in the screener, so you are always aware when a large candle prints.
It calculates the average size of the recent candles and then uses that average as the benchmark to determine if the current candle is considered big and worthy of notifying you to take a look at that chart.
You can adjust the multiplier used for the big candle threshold to whatever you desire, but the default setting is 3 which means the candle will be considered big and notify you if it is 3 times as large as an average candle.
The big candles data will track the following candle values and notify you with these labels:
High to Low candle size = HL
Candle Body from open to close candle size = OC
Top Wick size = TW
Bottom Wick size = BW
Daily Level Touches & Trend
Daily level touches are excellent levels to watch for price to bounce because they often act as support and resistance levels for intraday trading. The scanner will track each market and notify you when the current candle is touching any of the daily levels that you have turned on in the settings panel.
The main levels that are turned on by default and are useful for all markets and how they will be labeled on the scanner are as follows:
Previous Day High = High
Previous Day Low = Low
Previous Day Open = < Open
Previous Day Close = Close
Current Day Open = Open
We also included some extra levels that are useful for futures traders. They are as follows:
NY 930am Open = 930am
NY 12am Midnight Open = 12am
Asia Open at 8pm NY time = Asia
London Open at 2am NY Time = London
Watch how price reacts to these levels and then trade the bounces off of these levels if the price action confirms that it is going to respect that level.
When price is currently above the previous day high, the scanner will say “Above” and show a green color, indicating a bullish trend and that price is above the previous daily candle’s high.
When price is currently below the previous day low, the scanner will say “Below” and show a red color, indicating a bearish trend and that price is below the previous daily candle’s low.
Pay attention to when price is trending above or below the previous daily candle as those trends can provide excellent trend trading opportunities.
The daily levels that you have turned on in the settings will also show as lines on the chart and include a label next to them, identifying each level so you know what each line represents. You can turn on or off all of the lines shown on the chart in the main settings or turn them off one by one in the style panel of the settings. Labels can also be turned on or off for all of the lines in the main settings panel. You can adjust the label positioning in the Label Offset section of the settings panel.
VWAP Touches & Trend
VWAP stands for volume weighted average price and is a very popular tool that traders use to determine trend direction based on volume as well as an excellent level to trade price bounces off of.
The typical VWAP time period used is Daily, which means the volume weighted average price will reset at the beginning of a new day. We set the first VWAP to be the daily VWAP by default and the second one to be the weekly VWAP. You can adjust both of the time periods to be any of the provided time lengths that you choose.
The screener will show “Above” with a green background color when price is above the VWAP, indicating a bullish trend. It will show “Below” with a red background color when price is below the VWAP, indicating a bearish trend. When both VWAPs are showing Above or Below, you can expect price to trend in that direction, so look for pullbacks you can trade in the direction of the trend. If the VWAPs are showing different directions, then you should expect to bounce back and forth between the VWAPs, but be careful and watch out for price to break beyond either one and start a trend.
When the current candle is touching the VWAP, the scanner will change colors and say VWAP to notify you that price is touching the VWAP and you should look at that chart and analyze the market for a potential bounce off of the VWAP to trade.
Trending Market Signals
Strong trends are excellent markets to trade and can many times provide excellent trading opportunities that don’t require expert price action reading skills to be able to take winning trades from. That is why we included a signal to notify you of a strong trending market.
The strong trending market will show up as a green or red background color for the ticker name. If the color of the ticker name is green, it is notifying you that the price is above the previous daily high, above VWAP 1 and above VWAP 2 and is a good market to look for bullish trend trades. If the color of the ticker name is red, it is notifying you that the price is below the previous daily low, below VWAP 1 and below VWAP 2 and is a good market to look for bearish trend trades.
Changing The Tickers It Scans
To change the tickers that the indicator scans, scroll near the bottom of the settings panel and select the ticker symbol you want to update and then search for the exact symbol you want to use. If you want to scan less tickers, then just turn some of the tickers off that you don’t need.
Scanning More Than 10 Tickers
If you want to scan more than 10 tickers, you can add the scanner to your chart again and then just change the table position to the other side of the screen. This will allow you to scan 10 more tickers that will show up separately. Then if you want even more, just add the indicator to your chart again and update the table position until you have as many markets as you want. The table position setting can be found at the bottom of the main settings panel.
Alerts
The screener has alerts that can be used to notify you when any of the data set thresholds have been met or if price is touching one of the levels. You can set alerts for the following events:
Bullish Trend Alert - Price is above the previous daily high and above both VWAPs.
Bearish Trend Alert - Price is below the previous daily low and below both VWAPs.
High Volume Alert - Volume is higher than the threshold or a volume spike is detected.
High Volatility Alert - Volatility is higher than the threshold.
Oscillator Is Extended Alert - Oscillator value has exceeded the upper or lower threshold.
Big Candle Alert - A big candle has been detected.
Daily Level Touch Alert - One of the daily levels that is turned on is being touched.
VWAP Touch Alert - One of the 2 VWAPs are being touched.
An alert will trigger when any one of tickers on your scanner meets the alert conditions, so when you see the alert, you will need to go to your chart and look at the scanner to see which ticker it was and then navigate to that chart to look for potential trade setups.
The alerts will use the exact same settings you have configured in the settings panel to send you alert notifications. With normal settings, this could give you a lot of alerts, so if you only want alerts to fire when abnormal conditions are being met, try setting up a second screener on your chart that has very high threshold values and only has the most important level touches on. Then turn the setting "Do Not Show The Screener On The Chart" to off so the calculations will still run and fire alerts, but won't clog up your charts. This way you can only get alert notifications when major events happen but still have your normal screener settings available on your chart.
Markets This Can Be Used On
This screener uses the price action and volume data so you can use it to scan any type of market you would like as long as the ticker you are scanning has price and volume data feeds. If a market does not have volume data, then it will just show NaN in the volume row and the VWAP rows will not show anything.
