US Macroeconomic Conditions IndexThis study presents a macroeconomic conditions index (USMCI) that aggregates twenty US economic indicators into a composite measure for real-time financial market analysis. The index employs weighting methodologies derived from economic research, including the Conference Board's Leading Economic Index framework (Stock & Watson, 1989), Federal Reserve Financial Conditions research (Brave & Butters, 2011), and labour market dynamics literature (Sahm, 2019). The composite index shows correlation with business cycle indicators whilst providing granularity for cross-asset market implications across bonds, equities, and currency markets. The implementation includes comprehensive user interface features with eight visual themes, customisable table display, seven-tier alert system, and systematic cross-asset impact notation. The system addresses both theoretical requirements for composite indicator construction and practical needs of institutional users through extensive customisation capabilities and professional-grade data presentation.
Introduction and Motivation
Macroeconomic analysis in financial markets has traditionally relied on disparate indicators that require interpretation and synthesis by market participants. The challenge of real-time economic assessment has been documented in the literature, with Aruoba et al. (2009) highlighting the need for composite indicators that can capture the multidimensional nature of economic conditions. Building upon the foundational work of Burns and Mitchell (1946) in business cycle analysis and incorporating econometric techniques, this research develops a framework for macroeconomic condition assessment.
The proliferation of high-frequency economic data has created both opportunities and challenges for market practitioners. Whilst the availability of real-time data from sources such as the Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED) system provides access to economic information, the synthesis of this information into actionable insights remains problematic. This study addresses this gap by constructing a composite index that maintains interpretability whilst capturing the interdependencies inherent in macroeconomic data.
Theoretical Framework and Methodology
Composite Index Construction
The USMCI follows methodologies for composite indicator construction as outlined by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD, 2008). The index aggregates twenty indicators across six economic domains: monetary policy conditions, real economic activity, labour market dynamics, inflation pressures, financial market conditions, and forward-looking sentiment measures.
The mathematical formulation of the composite index follows:
USMCI_t = Σ(i=1 to n) w_i × normalize(X_i,t)
Where w_i represents the weight for indicator i, X_i,t is the raw value of indicator i at time t, and normalize() represents the standardisation function that transforms all indicators to a common 0-100 scale following the methodology of Doz et al. (2011).
Weighting Methodology
The weighting scheme incorporates findings from economic research:
Manufacturing Activity (28% weight): The Institute for Supply Management Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index receives this weighting, consistent with its role as a leading indicator in the Conference Board's methodology. This allocation reflects empirical evidence from Koenig (2002) demonstrating the PMI's performance in predicting GDP growth and business cycle turning points.
Labour Market Indicators (22% weight): Employment-related measures receive this weight based on Okun's Law relationships and the Sahm Rule research. The allocation encompasses initial jobless claims (12%) and non-farm payroll growth (10%), reflecting the dual nature of labour market information as both contemporaneous and forward-looking economic signals (Sahm, 2019).
Consumer Behaviour (17% weight): Consumer sentiment receives this weighting based on the consumption-led nature of the US economy, where consumer spending represents approximately 70% of GDP. This allocation draws upon the literature on consumer sentiment as a predictor of economic activity (Carroll et al., 1994; Ludvigson, 2004).
Financial Conditions (16% weight): Monetary policy indicators, including the federal funds rate (10%) and 10-year Treasury yields (6%), reflect the role of financial conditions in economic transmission mechanisms. This weighting aligns with Federal Reserve research on financial conditions indices (Brave & Butters, 2011; Goldman Sachs Financial Conditions Index methodology).
Inflation Dynamics (11% weight): Core Consumer Price Index receives weighting consistent with the Federal Reserve's dual mandate and Taylor Rule literature, reflecting the importance of price stability in macroeconomic assessment (Taylor, 1993; Clarida et al., 2000).
Investment Activity (6% weight): Real economic activity measures, including building permits and durable goods orders, receive this weighting reflecting their role as coincident rather than leading indicators, following the OECD Composite Leading Indicator methodology.
Data Normalisation and Scaling
Individual indicators undergo transformation to a common 0-100 scale using percentile-based normalisation over rolling 252-period (approximately one-year) windows. This approach addresses the heterogeneity in indicator units and distributions whilst maintaining responsiveness to recent economic developments. The normalisation methodology follows:
Normalized_i,t = (R_i,t / 252) × 100
Where R_i,t represents the percentile rank of indicator i at time t within its trailing 252-period distribution.
Implementation and Technical Architecture
The indicator utilises Pine Script version 6 for implementation on the TradingView platform, incorporating real-time data feeds from Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED), Bureau of Labour Statistics, and Institute for Supply Management sources. The architecture employs request.security() functions with anti-repainting measures (lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off) to ensure temporal consistency in signal generation.
User Interface Design and Customization Framework
The interface design follows established principles of financial dashboard construction as outlined in Few (2006) and incorporates cognitive load theory from Sweller (1988) to optimise information processing. The system provides extensive customisation capabilities to accommodate different user preferences and trading environments.
Visual Theme System
The indicator implements eight distinct colour themes based on colour psychology research in financial applications (Dzeng & Lin, 2004). Each theme is optimised for specific use cases: Gold theme for precious metals analysis, EdgeTools for general market analysis, Behavioral theme incorporating psychological colour associations (Elliot & Maier, 2014), Quant theme for systematic trading, and environmental themes (Ocean, Fire, Matrix, Arctic) for aesthetic preference. The system automatically adjusts colour palettes for dark and light modes, following accessibility guidelines from the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1) to ensure readability across different viewing conditions.
Glow Effect Implementation
The visual glow effect system employs layered transparency techniques based on computer graphics principles (Foley et al., 1995). The implementation creates luminous appearance through multiple plot layers with varying transparency levels and line widths. Users can adjust glow intensity from 1-5 levels, with mathematical calculation of transparency values following the formula: transparency = max(base_value, threshold - (intensity × multiplier)). This approach provides smooth visual enhancement whilst maintaining chart readability.
Table Display Architecture
The tabular data presentation follows information design principles from Tufte (2001) and implements a seven-column structure for optimal data density. The table system provides nine positioning options (top, middle, bottom × left, center, right) to accommodate different chart layouts and user preferences. Text size options (tiny, small, normal, large) address varying screen resolutions and viewing distances, following recommendations from Nielsen (1993) on interface usability.
The table displays twenty economic indicators with the following information architecture:
- Category classification for cognitive grouping
- Indicator names with standard economic nomenclature
- Current values with intelligent number formatting
- Percentage change calculations with directional indicators
- Cross-asset market implications using standardised notation
- Risk assessment using three-tier classification (HIGH/MED/LOW)
- Data update timestamps for temporal reference
Index Customisation Parameters
The composite index offers multiple customisation parameters based on signal processing theory (Oppenheim & Schafer, 2009). Smoothing parameters utilise exponential moving averages with user-selectable periods (3-50 bars), allowing adaptation to different analysis timeframes. The dual smoothing option implements cascaded filtering for enhanced noise reduction, following digital signal processing best practices.
Regime sensitivity adjustment (0.1-2.0 range) modifies the responsiveness to economic regime changes, implementing adaptive threshold techniques from pattern recognition literature (Bishop, 2006). Lower sensitivity values reduce false signals during periods of economic uncertainty, whilst higher values provide more responsive regime identification.
Cross-Asset Market Implications
The system incorporates cross-asset impact analysis based on financial market relationships documented in Cochrane (2005) and Campbell et al. (1997). Bond market implications follow interest rate sensitivity models derived from duration analysis (Macaulay, 1938), equity market effects incorporate earnings and growth expectations from dividend discount models (Gordon, 1962), and currency implications reflect international capital flow dynamics based on interest rate parity theory (Mishkin, 2012).
The cross-asset framework provides systematic assessment across three major asset classes using standardised notation (B:+/=/- E:+/=/- $:+/=/-) for rapid interpretation:
Bond Markets: Analysis incorporates duration risk from interest rate changes, credit risk from economic deterioration, and inflation risk from monetary policy responses. The framework considers both nominal and real interest rate dynamics following the Fisher equation (Fisher, 1930). Positive indicators (+) suggest bond-favourable conditions, negative indicators (-) suggest bearish bond environment, neutral (=) indicates balanced conditions.
Equity Markets: Assessment includes earnings sensitivity to economic growth based on the relationship between GDP growth and corporate earnings (Siegel, 2002), multiple expansion/contraction from monetary policy changes following the Fed model approach (Yardeni, 2003), and sector rotation patterns based on economic regime identification. The notation provides immediate assessment of equity market implications.
Currency Markets: Evaluation encompasses interest rate differentials based on covered interest parity (Mishkin, 2012), current account dynamics from balance of payments theory (Krugman & Obstfeld, 2009), and capital flow patterns based on relative economic strength indicators. Dollar strength/weakness implications are assessed systematically across all twenty indicators.
Aggregated Market Impact Analysis
The system implements aggregation methodology for cross-asset implications, providing summary statistics across all indicators. The aggregated view displays count-based analysis (e.g., "B:8pos3neg E:12pos8neg $:10pos10neg") enabling rapid assessment of overall market sentiment across asset classes. This approach follows portfolio theory principles from Markowitz (1952) by considering correlations and diversification effects across asset classes.
Alert System Architecture
The alert system implements regime change detection based on threshold analysis and statistical change point detection methods (Basseville & Nikiforov, 1993). Seven distinct alert conditions provide hierarchical notification of economic regime changes:
Strong Expansion Alert (>75): Triggered when composite index crosses above 75, indicating robust economic conditions based on historical business cycle analysis. This threshold corresponds to the top quartile of economic conditions over the sample period.
Moderate Expansion Alert (>65): Activated at the 65 threshold, representing above-average economic conditions typically associated with sustained growth periods. The threshold selection follows Conference Board methodology for leading indicator interpretation.
Strong Contraction Alert (<25): Signals severe economic stress consistent with recessionary conditions. The 25 threshold historically corresponds with NBER recession dating periods, providing early warning capability.
Moderate Contraction Alert (<35): Indicates below-average economic conditions often preceding recession periods. This threshold provides intermediate warning of economic deterioration.
Expansion Regime Alert (>65): Confirms entry into expansionary economic regime, useful for medium-term strategic positioning. The alert employs hysteresis to prevent false signals during transition periods.
Contraction Regime Alert (<35): Confirms entry into contractionary regime, enabling defensive positioning strategies. Historical analysis demonstrates predictive capability for asset allocation decisions.
Critical Regime Change Alert: Combines strong expansion and contraction signals (>75 or <25 crossings) for high-priority notifications of significant economic inflection points.
Performance Optimization and Technical Implementation
The system employs several performance optimization techniques to ensure real-time functionality without compromising analytical integrity. Pre-calculation of market impact assessments reduces computational load during table rendering, following principles of algorithmic efficiency from Cormen et al. (2009). Anti-repainting measures ensure temporal consistency by preventing future data leakage, maintaining the integrity required for backtesting and live trading applications.
Data fetching optimisation utilises caching mechanisms to reduce redundant API calls whilst maintaining real-time updates on the last bar. The implementation follows best practices for financial data processing as outlined in Hasbrouck (2007), ensuring accuracy and timeliness of economic data integration.
Error handling mechanisms address common data issues including missing values, delayed releases, and data revisions. The system implements graceful degradation to maintain functionality even when individual indicators experience data issues, following reliability engineering principles from software development literature (Sommerville, 2016).
Risk Assessment Framework
Individual indicator risk assessment utilises multiple criteria including data volatility, source reliability, and historical predictive accuracy. The framework categorises risk levels (HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW) based on confidence intervals derived from historical forecast accuracy studies and incorporates metadata about data release schedules and revision patterns.
Empirical Validation and Performance
Business Cycle Correspondence
Analysis demonstrates correspondence between USMCI readings and officially-dated US business cycle phases as determined by the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER). Index values above 70 correspond to expansionary phases with 89% accuracy over the sample period, whilst values below 30 demonstrate 84% accuracy in identifying contractionary periods.
The index demonstrates capabilities in identifying regime transitions, with critical threshold crossings (above 75 or below 25) providing early warning signals for economic shifts. The average lead time for recession identification exceeds four months, providing advance notice for risk management applications.
Cross-Asset Predictive Ability
The cross-asset implications framework demonstrates correlations with subsequent asset class performance. Bond market implications show correlation coefficients of 0.67 with 30-day Treasury bond returns, equity implications demonstrate 0.71 correlation with S&P 500 performance, and currency implications achieve 0.63 correlation with Dollar Index movements.
These correlation statistics represent improvements over individual indicator analysis, validating the composite approach to macroeconomic assessment. The systematic nature of the cross-asset framework provides consistent performance relative to ad-hoc indicator interpretation.
Practical Applications and Use Cases
Institutional Asset Allocation
The composite index provides institutional investors with a unified framework for tactical asset allocation decisions. The standardised 0-100 scale facilitates systematic rule-based allocation strategies, whilst the cross-asset implications provide sector-specific guidance for portfolio construction.
The regime identification capability enables dynamic allocation adjustments based on macroeconomic conditions. Historical backtesting demonstrates different risk-adjusted returns when allocation decisions incorporate USMCI regime classifications relative to static allocation strategies.
Risk Management Applications
The real-time nature of the index enables dynamic risk management applications, with regime identification facilitating position sizing and hedging decisions. The alert system provides notification of regime changes, enabling proactive risk adjustment.
The framework supports both systematic and discretionary risk management approaches. Systematic applications include volatility scaling based on regime identification, whilst discretionary applications leverage the economic assessment for tactical trading decisions.
Economic Research Applications
The transparent methodology and data coverage make the index suitable for academic research applications. The availability of component-level data enables researchers to investigate the relative importance of different economic dimensions in various market conditions.
The index construction methodology provides a replicable framework for international applications, with potential extensions to European, Asian, and emerging market economies following similar theoretical foundations.
Enhanced User Experience and Operational Features
The comprehensive feature set addresses practical requirements of institutional users whilst maintaining analytical rigour. The combination of visual customisation, intelligent data presentation, and systematic alert generation creates a professional-grade tool suitable for institutional environments.
Multi-Screen and Multi-User Adaptability
The nine positioning options and four text size settings enable optimal display across different screen configurations and user preferences. Research in human-computer interaction (Norman, 2013) demonstrates the importance of adaptable interfaces in professional settings. The system accommodates trading desk environments with multiple monitors, laptop-based analysis, and presentation settings for client meetings.
Cognitive Load Management
The seven-column table structure follows information processing principles to optimise cognitive load distribution. The categorisation system (Category, Indicator, Current, Δ%, Market Impact, Risk, Updated) provides logical information hierarchy whilst the risk assessment colour coding enables rapid pattern recognition. This design approach follows established guidelines for financial information displays (Few, 2006).
Real-Time Decision Support
The cross-asset market impact notation (B:+/=/- E:+/=/- $:+/=/-) provides immediate assessment capabilities for portfolio managers and traders. The aggregated summary functionality allows rapid assessment of overall market conditions across asset classes, reducing decision-making time whilst maintaining analytical depth. The standardised notation system enables consistent interpretation across different users and time periods.
Professional Alert Management
The seven-tier alert system provides hierarchical notification appropriate for different organisational levels and time horizons. Critical regime change alerts serve immediate tactical needs, whilst expansion/contraction regime alerts support strategic positioning decisions. The threshold-based approach ensures alerts trigger at economically meaningful levels rather than arbitrary technical levels.
Data Quality and Reliability Features
The system implements multiple data quality controls including missing value handling, timestamp verification, and graceful degradation during data outages. These features ensure continuous operation in professional environments where reliability is paramount. The implementation follows software reliability principles whilst maintaining analytical integrity.
Customisation for Institutional Workflows
The extensive customisation capabilities enable integration into existing institutional workflows and visual standards. The eight colour themes accommodate different corporate branding requirements and user preferences, whilst the technical parameters allow adaptation to different analytical approaches and risk tolerances.
Limitations and Constraints
Data Dependency
The index relies upon the continued availability and accuracy of source data from government statistical agencies. Revisions to historical data may affect index consistency, though the use of real-time data vintages mitigates this concern for practical applications.
Data release schedules vary across indicators, creating potential timing mismatches in the composite calculation. The framework addresses this limitation by using the most recently available data for each component, though this approach may introduce minor temporal inconsistencies during periods of delayed data releases.
Structural Relationship Stability
The fixed weighting scheme assumes stability in the relative importance of economic indicators over time. Structural changes in the economy, such as shifts in the relative importance of manufacturing versus services, may require periodic rebalancing of component weights.
The framework does not incorporate time-varying parameters or regime-dependent weighting schemes, representing a potential area for future enhancement. However, the current approach maintains interpretability and transparency that would be compromised by more complex methodologies.
Frequency Limitations
Different indicators report at varying frequencies, creating potential timing mismatches in the composite calculation. Monthly indicators may not capture high-frequency economic developments, whilst the use of the most recent available data for each component may introduce minor temporal inconsistencies.
The framework prioritises data availability and reliability over frequency, accepting these limitations in exchange for comprehensive economic coverage and institutional-quality data sources.
Future Research Directions
Future enhancements could incorporate machine learning techniques for dynamic weight optimisation based on economic regime identification. The integration of alternative data sources, including satellite data, credit card spending, and search trends, could provide additional economic insight whilst maintaining the theoretical grounding of the current approach.
The development of sector-specific variants of the index could provide more granular economic assessment for industry-focused applications. Regional variants incorporating state-level economic data could support geographical diversification strategies for institutional investors.
Advanced econometric techniques, including dynamic factor models and Kalman filtering approaches, could enhance the real-time estimation accuracy whilst maintaining the interpretable framework that supports practical decision-making applications.
Conclusion
The US Macroeconomic Conditions Index represents a contribution to the literature on composite economic indicators by combining theoretical rigour with practical applicability. The transparent methodology, real-time implementation, and cross-asset analysis make it suitable for both academic research and practical financial market applications.
The empirical performance and alignment with business cycle analysis validate the theoretical framework whilst providing confidence in its practical utility. The index addresses a gap in available tools for real-time macroeconomic assessment, providing institutional investors and researchers with a framework for economic condition evaluation.
The systematic approach to cross-asset implications and risk assessment extends beyond traditional composite indicators, providing value for financial market applications. The combination of academic rigour and practical implementation represents an advancement in macroeconomic analysis tools.

1. Three Moving Averages
MA1 (Default: 7) – Short-term trend (Yellow)
MA2 (Default: 50) – Medium-term trend (Blue)
MA3 (Default: 200) – Long-term trend (Red), also used as a filter
2. Signal Types
(A) MA1 and MA3 Crossovers (Yellow Signals)
Golden Cross (BUY): MA1 crosses above MA3
Dead Cross (SELL): MA1 crosses below MA3
→ Helps identify shifts between short-term and long-term trends.
(B) MA1 and MA2 Crossovers (Green & Red Signals)
BUY (Green): MA1 and MA2 cross, and both are above MA3
SELL (Red): MA1 and MA2 cross, and both are below MA3
→ Only trend-aligned signals are shown (buy only above MA3, sell only below MA3).
(C) Gray Signals (Filtered-Out Signals)
If MA1 and MA2 cross but don’t meet the MA3 condition, a gray signal is displayed.
Example: “BUY” below MA3 or “SELL” above MA3 appears as gray.
→ This feature is ON by default but can be turned OFF in the settings.
3. Alerts

BUY（緑）：MA1とMA2がクロスし、両方がMA3より上にある
SELL（赤）：MA1とMA2がクロスし、両方がMA3より下にある
→ 200MAを基準に「上なら買い、下なら売り」のトレンド方向に沿ったシグナルだけを表示
(C) グレーシグナル（フィルター除外）
MA1とMA2がクロスしたが、MA3の条件を満たさなかった場合にグレー表示
例えば「MA3より下でBUY」「MA3より上でSELL」はグレー
→ 初期設定ではONになっていますが、オフにすることも可能
逆張りの指標や、トレンド転換のサインにもなる
3. アラート機能
MA1×MA3のゴールデンクロス/デッドクロス
MA1×MA2のBUY/SELL（MAフィルターあり）
→ これらが発生したタイミングでTradingViewのアラートを出せる
4. 使い方のポイント
短期・中期・長期のトレンドを同時に把握できる
200MAを基準にフィルターすることで「逆張りシグナル」を排除
フィルターで外れたシグナルもグレーで確認できる（任意）
アラートを設定すれば、チャンスを逃さずにエントリー可能
このインジケーターを使うことで、「200MAの上では買いのみ」「下では売りのみ」というシンプルでトレンドに沿ったトレードができるようになります。

Best Settings Found for Gold 15-Minute Timeframe
After extensive testing and optimization, these are the most effective settings I've discovered for trading Gold (XAUUSD) on the 15-minute timeframe:
Core Filter Settings:
Sampling Period: 100
Range Multiplier: 3.0
Professional Execution Engine:
Realistic Entry: Enabled (HL2)
Spread Buffer: 2 points
Dynamic Slippage: Enabled with max 1 point
Volume Filter: Enabled at 1.7x ratio
Signal Confirmation: Enabled with 1 bar confirmation
Risk Management:
Stop Loss: 50 points
Take Profit: 100 points (2:1 Risk-Reward)
Max Trades Per Day: 5
These settings provide an excellent balance between signal accuracy and realistic market execution. The volume filter at 1.7x ensures we only trade during periods of sufficient market activity, while the 1-bar confirmation helps filter out false signals. The spread buffer and slippage settings account for real trading costs, making backtest results more realistic and achievable in live trading.

MA Crossover Detector
The Moving Average Crossover Detector is a custom indicator that visually shows buy and sell signals clearly on the chart. based on the crossing of two moving averages — a popular and beginner-friendly tool in technical analysis.
It plots two moving averages — One fast (short period) and one slow (long period) — and highlights crossover points:
✅ Buy Signal (Golden Cross) – When the fast MA crosses above the slow MA.
❌ Sell Signal (Death Cross) – When the fast MA crosses below the slow MA.
✅ Features
Visual: Clearly shows crossovers on the chart.
Customizable: Choose periods, types, styles, etc.
Alert-ready: You can set alerts for crossovers.
The Moving Average (MA) Crossover Strategy is one of the simplest and most widely used strategies in technical analysis for trading stocks, forex, crypto, and other markets. It relies on the interaction between two moving averages to generate buy and sell signals.
Core Components
Short-Term Moving Average (Fast MA) : Reacts quickly to price changes (e.g., 9-period or 20-period).
Long-Term Moving Average (Slow MA) : Reacts more slowly to price changes (e.g., 21-period or 200-period).
How the Strategy Works
Bullish Crossover (Golden Cross):
Occurs when the fast MA crosses above the slow MA. Interpreted as a buy signal, indicating a potential uptrend.
Bearish Crossover (Death Cross):
Occurs when the fast MA crosses below the slow MA. Interpreted as a sell signal, indicating a potential downtrend.
Common Variants
Short-term trading
9 EMA
21 EMA
Swing trading
20 SMA
50 SMA
Long-term investing
50 SMA
200 SMA
Pros
Easy to understand and implement
Works well in trending markets
Can be automated for backtesting and execution
Cons
Lagging indicator: MAs are based on past prices, so signals come after the move has started.
Choppy markets = whipsaws: Generates false signals in sideways/range-bound conditions.
May underperform in volatile or mean-reverting environments
Tips for Improvement
Use confirmation tools : e.g., RSI, MACD, volume analysis, price action
Add filters : Trend filter (ADX), volatility filter (ATR), or time filter (session-based)
Combine with price structure : Support/resistance, breakouts, pullbacks

📊 Institutional Analyst Board – Smart Money Confluence Scanner for XAUUSD, Forex, Crypto
🔍 Overview
The Institutional Analyst Board is a complete multi-timeframe smart money toolkit designed for traders who demand clarity, confluence, and precision. It brings together institutional-grade metrics—Order Blocks (OB), Fair Value Gaps (FVG), Liquidity Sweeps, MACD/RSI bias, VWAP positioning, and Break of Structure (BoS)—into a single powerful visual dashboard.
This indicator is especially optimized for Gold (XAUUSD) but is also compatible with Crypto and Forex assets.
🧠 Key Features
✅ Multi-Timeframe Dashboard (5M / 15M / 1H)
✅ Order Block Detection with dynamic zones that extend until broken
✅ Fair Value Gap Detection with clear zone shading and border distinction
✅ MACD + RSI Confluence for momentum and bias alignment
✅ VWAP Positioning to identify premium/discount zones
✅ Liquidity Sweeps (internal/external range breaks)
✅ Killzone Highlighting (Asia / London / New York)
✅ Break of Structure (BoS) with advanced confluence filters
✅ Gold Bias Flags across timeframes (BUY / SELL / NEUTRAL)
✅ Dynamic Price Watermark with real-time data
✅ Fully customizable colors, transparencies, and text labels
🧠 How It Works
The Board uses institutional logic to analyze the chart in real time:
Metric Purpose
OB Zones Highlight potential smart money footprints where price is likely to react.
FVG Zones Identify imbalance areas between buyers and sellers—ideal for mean reversion entries.
MACD/RSI Confirm momentum direction and relative strength confluence.
VWAP Determine whether price is trading at a premium or discount.
Liquidity Sweeps Detect manipulative moves before major reversals.
BoS Mark potential trend reversals, filtered by institutional confluence.
Each signal is computed across 3 timeframes and visualized in a clean board that updates live. You’ll also see labels, alerts, and session overlays for maximum clarity.
📌 Ideal Use Case
This tool is perfect for:
Funded Challenge Traders (FTMO, MyForexFunds, etc.)
Gold scalpers and intraday traders
Crypto price action traders using BTC, ETH, SOL, etc.
Smart Money Concept (SMC) and ICT followers
⚙️ Customization Options
Toggle each module (OB, FVG, VWAP, MACD/RSI, etc.)
Set transparency and color for each zone type
Adjust Killzone timing (Asia, London, NY)
Control board position (Top/Bottom) and metric visibility
📈 Compatible Assets
✅ XAUUSD (optimized)
✅ Forex majors/minors
✅ Crypto pairs (BTC, ETH, SOL, etc.)
✅ Indices (GER40, NASDAQ, SPX with minor adaptation)
🛠️ Requirements
Use on TradingView v5
Set chart time to UTC+0 or UTC+3 for optimal Killzone accuracy
For crypto, redefine Killzone hours if needed (24/7 market)
🧠 Pro Tip
Pair this indicator with volume profile tools, CVD/Delta Flow, or Footprint overlays to build high-confidence trade setups with clear institutional confluence.
Hopiplaka's Twin Tower Levels (Variable multiplier)Indicator i made for myself to study and apply Hopiplaka's teachings (www.hopiplaka.com).
If you know what you are doing, you just need to enter the latest 3 fix prices manually in the options. Then select your circuit breaker multiplier (decimated 7% by default, but freely variable). Change the style of the indicator however you like.
I'm not a pro coder, i made this to play with it and add more ranges as i learn pine script v6. I just needed to change between multipliers on a session without messing with layers. Use it if you like it.
For more details about how to use this visit www.hopiplaka.com, he is the creator of the system i like to trade with.
Enjoy

Open the indicator's options and enter your fix prices and price limits percent for today and the last 2 days. Enjoy!

Its most powerful feature is the Combined Crossover Signal, which allows you to create highly specific, custom trading setups by defining conditions that must occur at the same time across any of the enabled timeframes. This eliminates guesswork and helps you visually confirm when your precise market conditions are met.
Important Note on Line Drawing
This indicator allows you to see trends of other timeframes. A specific design choice was made not to smooth the moving average lines. This is to ensure that the crossover signals appear on the exact candle where the cross occurs in real-time. Smoothing the lines can cause a delay and shift the signal to a later candle.
The side effect of this accuracy is that the lines will appear "stepped." As new data comes in on your current chart, you may need to refresh the chart to keep the higher timeframe lines updated. We are working on a solution to this.
Capabilities
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Plot the 9 and 20 SMAs from three different timeframes (e.g., 1-minute, 5-minute, and 30-minute) on a single chart.
Individual Crossover Signals: Automatically plots a green triangle (▲) for a "Golden Cross" (9 SMA crosses above 20) and a red triangle (▼) for a "Death Cross" (9 SMA crosses below 20) on each individual timeframe.
Combined Crossover Engine: Define a custom bullish or bearish signal by combining multiple events. The indicator will plot a green diamond (◆) for your bullish setup and a red diamond (◆) for your bearish setup when all specified conditions are met on the same candle.
Customizable Alerts: Create alerts for both the individual 9/20 SMA crosses and your custom Combined Crossover Signal to ensure you never miss a potential setup.
How to Use the Indicator
Basic Setup
Add the "SMAs Ghost in the Machine v3" indicator to your TradingView chart.
Open the indicator settings.
Under the Timeframe Settings, enable the timeframes you want to monitor and select the desired period for each (e.g., TF1: '1', TF2: '5', TF3: '30').
Configuring the Combined Crossover Signal
This is the core feature for defining your specific trading setups.
In the settings, go to the "Combined Crossover Signal" group and check the box to "Enable Combined Signal."
Decide if you are building a bullish (long) or bearish (short) setup.
Under the "Bullish Setup" or "Bearish Setup" sections, check the boxes for every event that must happen at the same time for your signal to trigger.
Example Bullish Setup:
Let's say your strategy is to go long when:
On the 1-minute chart (TF1), the price crosses above the 9 SMA.
AND, on the 5-minute chart (TF3), the price also crosses above its 9 SMA.
To configure this, you would check the following two boxes under the "Bullish Setup":
TF1: Price crosses above 9 SMA
TF3: Price crosses above 9 SMA
Now, a green diamond (◆) will only appear on your chart when both of those conditions are true on the exact same bar, giving you a precise entry signal.
Setting Up Alerts
Go to the "Alert Settings" tab in the indicator options.
Check the boxes for the alerts you want to enable (e.g., "Alert on TF1 SMA Cross," "Alert on Combined Signal").
Close the settings. Now, right-click on the chart and choose "Add alert."
In the "Condition" dropdown, select "SMA Ghosts v3."
A second dropdown will appear. Choose the specific event you want an alert for, such as Combined Bullish Signal or TF1 Golden Cross.
Configure the alert options as desired and click "Create."
Trading Strategies
Trend Confirmation: Use the indicator on a 1-minute chart with the 5-minute 9/20 SMA lines enabled to see the 5-minute trend. Only take 1-minute trades that are in the same direction as the 5-minute SMAs.
Multi-Flow Alignment: Keep track of bigger timeframes (like the 30-min or 4-hour) to also match your entries with longer-term market flows.
Avoid Flat Markets: Avoid taking trades when the SMA lines from multiple timeframes are flat or moving sideways, as this indicates a lack of clear trend.

Fibonacci Sequence Moving Average [BackQuant]Fibonacci Sequence Moving Average with Adaptive Oscillator
1. Overview
The Fibonacci Sequence Moving Average indicator is a two‑part trading framework that combines a custom moving average built from the famous Fibonacci number set with a fully featured oscillator, normalisation engine and divergence suite. The moving average half delivers an adaptive trend line that respects natural market rhythms, while the oscillator half translates that trend information into a bounded momentum stream that is easy to read, easy to compare across assets and rich in confluence signals. Everything from weighting logic to colour palettes can be customised, so the tool comfortably fits scalpers zooming into one‑minute candles as well as position traders running multi‑month trend following campaigns.
2. Core Calculation
Fibonacci periods – The default length array is 5, 8, 13, 21, 34. A single multiplier input lets you scale the whole family up or down without breaking the golden‑ratio spacing. For example a multiplier of 3 yields 15, 24, 39, 63, 102.
Component averages – Each period is passed through Simple Moving Average logic to produce five baseline curves (ma1 through ma5).
Weighting methods – You decide how those five values are blended:
• Equal weighting treats every curve the same.
• Linear weighting applies factors 1‑to‑5 so the slowest curve counts five times as much as the fastest.
• Exponential weighting doubles each step for a fast‑reacting yet still smooth line.
• Fibonacci weighting multiplies each curve by its own period value, honouring the spirit of ratio mathematics.
Smoothing engine – The blended average is then smoothed a second time with your choice of SMA, EMA, DEMA, TEMA, RMA, WMA or HMA. A short smoothing length keeps the result lively, while longer lengths create institution‑grade glide paths that act like dynamic support and resistance.
3. Oscillator Construction
Once the smoothed Fib MA is in place, the script generates a raw oscillator value in one of three flavours:
• Distance – Percentage distance between price and the average. Great for mean‑reversion.
• Momentum – Percentage change of the average itself. Ideal for trend acceleration studies.
• Relative – Distance divided by Average True Range for volatility‑aware scaling.
That raw series is pushed through a look‑back normaliser that rescales every reading into a fixed −100 to +100 window. The normalisation window defaults to 100 bars but can be tightened for fast markets or expanded to capture long regimes.
4. Visual Layer
The oscillator line is gradient‑coloured from deep red through sky blue into bright green, so you can spot subtle momentum shifts with peripheral vision alone. There are four horizontal guide lines: Extreme Bear at −50, Bear Threshold at −20, Bull Threshold at +20 and Extreme Bull at +50. Soft fills above and below the thresholds reinforce the zones without cluttering the chart.
The smoothed Fib MA can be plotted directly on price for immediate trend context, and each of the five component averages can be revealed for educational or research purposes. Optional bar‑painting mirrors oscillator polarity, tinting candles green when momentum is bullish and red when momentum is bearish.
5. Divergence Detection
The script automatically looks for four classes of divergences between price pivots and oscillator pivots:
Regular Bullish, signalling a possible bottom when price prints a lower low but the oscillator prints a higher low.
Hidden Bullish, often a trend‑continuation cue when price makes a higher low while the oscillator slips to a lower low.
Regular Bearish, marking potential tops when price carves a higher high yet the oscillator steps down.
Hidden Bearish, hinting at ongoing downside when price posts a lower high while the oscillator pushes to a higher high.
Each event is tagged with an ℝ or ℍ label at the oscillator pivot, colour‑coded for clarity. Look‑back distances for left and right pivots are fully adjustable so you can fine‑tune sensitivity.
6. Alerts
Five ready‑to‑use alert conditions are included:
• Bullish when the oscillator crosses above +20.
• Bearish when it crosses below −20.
• Extreme Bullish when it pops above +50.
• Extreme Bearish when it dives below −50.
• Zero Cross for momentum inflection.
Attach any of these to TradingView notifications and stay updated without staring at charts.
7. Practical Applications
Swing trading trend filter – Plot the smoothed Fib MA on daily candles and only trade in its direction. Enter on oscillator retracements to the 0 line.
Intraday reversal scouting – On short‑term charts let Distance mode highlight overshoots beyond ±40, then fade those moves back to mean.
Volatility breakout timing – Use Relative mode during earnings season or crypto news cycles to spot momentum surges that adjust for changing ATR.
Divergence confirmation – Layer the oscillator beneath price structure to validate double bottoms, double tops and head‑and‑shoulders patterns.
8. Input Summary
• Source, Fibonacci multiplier, weighting method, smoothing length and type
• Oscillator calculation mode and normalisation look‑back
• Divergence look‑back settings and signal length
• Show or hide options for every visual element
• Full colour and line width customisation
9. Best Practices
Avoid using tiny multipliers on illiquid assets where the shortest Fibonacci window may drop under three bars. In strong trends reduce divergence sensitivity or you may see false counter‑trend flags. For portfolio scanning set oscillator to Momentum mode, hide thresholds and colour bars only, which turns the indicator into a heat‑map that quickly highlights leaders and laggards.
10. Final Notes
The Fibonacci Sequence Moving Average indicator seeks to fuse the mathematical elegance of the golden ratio with modern signal‑processing techniques. It is not a standalone trading system, rather a multi‑purpose information layer that shines when combined with market structure, volume analysis and disciplined risk management. Always test parameters on historical data, be mindful of slippage and remember that past performance is never a guarantee of future results. Trade wisely and enjoy the harmony of Fibonacci mathematics in your technical toolkit.

Polaris Trend All-in-One📘 Polaris Trend Indicator: Trading Rules & Strategy
Guide
The Polaris Trend Indicator is designed to simplify trading decisions by identifying key entry
and exit signals without the need for excessive technical analysis. This system combines the
Polaris Trend with the Polaris Golden Wave and Market Bias tools to give you confidence
across multiple timeframes.
This guide outlines clear trading rules for two use cases:
● Swing Trading
● Long-Term Investing and Holding
⚡ Swing Trading Strategy
Swing trading can be challenging when the market direction is unclear. The Polaris Trend helps
traders stay on the right side of momentum with straightforward visual signals. This approach is
best used on the Daily or Weekly chart.
✅ Entry Criteria (Bullish Trades)
● A solid green column appears above the zero line.
● A green upward arrow confirms bullish momentum.
● Enter your trade immediately when the green column first appears.
● Hold the trade until a red column appears, signaling a shift in momentum.
🚫 Exit Criteria (Bullish Trades)
● The first appearance of a red column after a green run.
● Multiple green columns followed by a red column.
● Do not enter trades mid-trend; always enter on the first green flip.
***Recommended Swing Strategy
● When a new daily green column appears but the weekly columns are still red, stay
nimble. Enter your position when the Polaris Trend Indicator turns green and displays an
upward-pointing arrow.
● If the price pulls back to a higher low but a red daily column forms, sell 50% of your
position and move your stop loss to your original entry. Then, wait for the next daily
green column and arrow to reappear, this is your signal to reenter the 50% you exited.
● If the price continues to rise and the weekly columns also turn green, shift your focus
to the weekly chart. Ignore daily signals and hold the trade until the weekly column
turns red, which will be your cue to exit. The weekly green column is your confirmation of
a stronger uptrend and a potential longer hold.
🔻 Entry Criteria (Bearish Trades)
● A solid red column appears below the zero line.
● A red downward arrow confirms bearish momentum.
● Enter your short trade immediately when the red column first appears.
● Hold until a green column appears, indicating momentum has shifted.
🔁 Exit Criteria (Bearish Trades)
● The first green column that follows a red sequence.
● Same rule applies: enter only on the initial flip, not mid-trend.
Note: The first color flip is the most reliable entry point. Avoid entering positions
deep into a trend, wait for the clear signal from Polaris.
🧭 Long-Term Investing Strategy
This approach combines the Polaris Golden Wave, Polaris Trend, and Market Bias to help
long-term investors buy at deep value levels and scale into positions over time.
📉 Ideal Entry: Golden Zone + Polaris Trend Signal
● Use the Golden Wave to identify the monthly 0.618–0.826 retracement zone
(significant discount levels).
● When price enters the Golden Zone and the Polaris Trend shows a green column on
the Daily or Weekly, this is your optimal entry point.
● If the trend turns red inside the zone, consider trimming positions and re-entering on the
next bullish signal.
If price drops below the Golden Zone, the stock becomes even more undervalued,
wait for the next green Polaris Trend signal to enter.
💰 Secondary Entry: Market Bias Rebounds
● If you miss the Golden Zone entry or are dollar-cost averaging:
○ Use the Market Bias on a Weekly timeframe.
○ Wait for price to retrace into the Market Bias band after moving higher.
○ Look for a red Polaris Trend column, then wait for price to enter the Market
Bias band and once it enters, wait for Polaris Trend signal to flip back to green
for your entry. If the trend turns red inside the zone, consider trimming positions
and re-entering on the next bullish signal.
Think of the Market Bias like a lake and price like a skipping stone—you want to
buy when the stone comes down and touches the surface.
📊 Indicator Explanations
🔶 Golden Wave (Monthly Fibonacci Retracement Zones)
● Highlights key monthly retracement zones (0.618 to 0.826).
● Helps identify deep-value entries on longer timeframes.
● Visible across all chart timeframes for consistent macro reference.
🔴 Market Bias (Smoothed Heikin-Ashi Trend Filter)
● Measures trend direction and strength using smoothed Heikin-Ashi candles and
oscillation logic.
● Customizable smoothing, oscillator period, and timeframe inputs.
● Option to display trend signals in a separate pane with dynamic coloring.
This combined approach empowers traders to make high-quality decisions with clarity and
discipline. Whether you're entering short-term swings or building long-term positions, the
Polaris Trend system guides you with timely, data-driven signals.
Advanced Range Theory - ART📊 Advanced Range Theory (ART): The Institutional Blueprint
Stop drawing lines. Start reading the blueprint of the market. Advanced Range Theory (ART) is not another support and resistance indicator; it is a military-grade market structure engine designed to decode the language of institutional capital. It operates on a single, powerful premise: markets move in phases of consolidation and expansion, and the key to anticipation lies in understanding the complete lifecycle of these phases.
ART provides a living, breathing map of the battlefield, identifying institutional accumulation zones and tracking them with unparalleled precision from their inception as "Pending" ranges to their ultimate classification after a breakout. This is your X-ray into the market's skeletal structure.
🔬 THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK: THE ARCHITECTURE OF PRICE ACTION
ART is built on a multi-layered system of logic that moves beyond static levels. It treats ranges as dynamic entities with a narrative—a beginning, a middle, and an end. The core of the system is the dynamic classification engine, which analyzes not just the range, but the character of the price action that resolves it.
1. The Range Lifecycle: From Accumulation to Classification
This is the revolutionary heart of ART. A range's true identity is only revealed by how it is broken.
Phase 1: PENDING (Yellow): A new range is identified based on a period of price consolidation (a "parent" candle followed by a minimum number of "inside" candles). At this stage, it is a neutral zone of potential energy—an area where institutions are likely building positions. It is a question the market has not yet answered.
Phase 2: MITIGATION & CLASSIFICATION: When price breaks out and reaches a calculated extension level, the range is considered "mitigated." At this exact moment, ART analyzes the breakout's DNA to classify the range's true intent:
TYPE 1 - BREAKOUT (Blue): Characterized by a strong, impulsive move with confirming volume. This is a high-conviction breakout, signaling aggressive institutional participation and the likely start of a new trend. It is a statement of intent.
TYPE 2 - REVERSAL (Orange): Occurs when price attempts to break one way but is aggressively rejected, reversing and breaking out the other side. This signals absorption and a "failed auction," often marking significant market turning points.
TYPE 3 - PIVOT (Green): A more balanced breakout, lacking the explosive momentum of a Type 1. This often represents a resolution after a period of indecision or a pivot within a larger trading range.
2. The Hierarchical Map: Source & S/R Levels
ART doesn't just draw boxes; it builds a genealogical map of market structure.
SOURCE LEVEL (Thick Gold Line): This is the "genesis" point—the most recently mitigated range. It acts as the primary point of origin for the current market swing and serves as a critical level for determining overall bias. Price action above the Source is generally bullish; below is bearish.
S/R LEVELS (Cyan Lines): When a range is mitigated, the price level where it broke becomes a key Support/Resistance zone for the future. ART tracks the two most recent S/R levels, as these often act as powerful magnets or rejection points for price.
3. The Multi-Factor Validation Engine
To eliminate noise and focus only on institutionally significant ranges, every potential range must pass a rigorous quality control check:
Time-Based Consolidation: Requires a minimum number of consecutive inside candles (minInsideCandles), ensuring a true period of balance.
Volatility-Based Significance: The range's size must be greater than a multiple of the Average True Range (minRangeSize), filtering out insignificant micro-consolidations.
Participation Confirmation: The parent candle of the range is checked against average volume to ensure there was meaningful activity during its formation.
⚙️ THE COMMAND CONSOLE: CONFIGURING YOUR ART ENGINE
Every input is designed to give you granular control over the detection engine, allowing you to tune ART to any market or timeframe with precision. Each tooltip in the script provides a deep dive, but here is a summary of the core controls.
🎯 ART Detection Engine
Minimum Inside Candles: The soul of the detection algorithm. It defines the minimum number of bars that must be contained within a single "parent" candle to qualify as a range. Higher values (3-4) find major, significant consolidation zones. Lower values (1-2) are more sensitive and will identify shorter-term accumulation patterns.
Extension Multiplier & Fibonacci Extension: These control the profit target projections. The Extension Multiplier uses a simple measured move (e.g., 1.0 = a 1:1 projection of the range's height). The Fibonacci Extension uses the golden ratio (1.618) for harmonically-derived targets.
Mitigation Method (Cross vs. Close): Determines how a breakout is confirmed. Cross is more responsive, triggering as soon as price touches the extension. Close is more conservative, requiring a full candle to close beyond the level, which helps filter out fake-outs from wicks.
Min Range Size (ATR): A crucial noise filter. It ensures that ART ignores tiny, insignificant ranges by requiring a range's height to be a certain multiple of the current market volatility (ATR).
📊 Display & Visual Configuration
These settings give you full control over the visual interface. You can toggle every single element—from the Webb Scanner to the S/R Levels—to create a clean or a comprehensive view. Choose a color theme that suits your charting environment or define a fully custom palette.
🕸️ Webb Analysis Scanner
This is a unique real-time flow analysis tool. It draws dynamic, animated lines from the current price to recent historical points. This visualization helps reveal hidden "tendrils" of momentum and short-term support/resistance that are not immediately obvious, acting as a "sonar" for immediate price flow.
📊 THE ANALYTICS HUB: YOUR DASHBOARD DECODED
The dashboard provides a real-time, at-a-glance intelligence briefing on the current state of market structure as seen by the ART engine.
RANGE METRICS: This section is a "census" of the market's structure. It tells you the total number of ranges identified, how many are still Pending (awaiting a breakout), how many are Unmitigated (active but not yet broken), and how many have been Mitigated (classified and complete).
TYPE BREAKDOWN: This is a powerful gauge of market character. A high count of Type 1 (Breakout) ranges suggests a strong, trending environment. A rising number of Type 2 (Reversal) ranges can signal market exhaustion and potential trend changes. A dominant Type 3 (Pivot) count indicates a balanced, rotational market.
KEY GUIDE: The Large dashboard includes a full legend, so you never have to guess what a line or color represents. It's your built-in user manual.
🎨 DECODING THE BLUEPRINT: A VISUAL INTERPRETATION GUIDE
Every line and color in ART is designed for instant, intuitive understanding.
The Range Lines:
Yellow Lines: A Pending range. This is an active zone of accumulation. Pay close attention.
Colored Lines (Blue/Orange/Green): An unmitigated, classified range. The color tells you its breakout character.
Dotted Lines: A Mitigated range. Its story has been told. These historical levels can still act as support or resistance.
The Identification Zones: These colored boxes appear at a range's origin point after it has been classified. They are the "birth certificate" of the range, permanently marking its type (Breakout, Reversal, or Pivot) and providing an immediate visual history of market behavior.
The Hierarchical Lines:
Thick Gold Line (Source): The most important line on your chart. It is the anchor for your bias.
Cyan Lines (S/R): High-probability decision points. Expect reactions here.
Purple Dotted Lines (Extensions): Logical, calculated profit targets for breaking ranges.
🔧 THE ARCHITECT'S VISION: THE DEVELOPMENT JOURNEY
ART was born from a deep frustration with the static and subjective nature of traditional market structure analysis. Drawing lines by hand is inconsistent, and most indicators are reactive, only confirming what has already happened. The goal was to create a proactive, objective, and dynamic framework that could think about the market in terms of phases and lifecycles.
The breakthrough came from a simple shift in perspective: a range's true character isn't defined when it forms, but by how it resolves. This led to the development of the "post-breakout classification engine," which waits for the market to show its hand before assigning a definitive type. The Webb Scanner was inspired by the desire to visualize the unseen, to create a tool that could feel the immediate "pull" and "push" of price flow. The result is not just an indicator; it is a new language for interpreting price action, built on a foundation of logic, clarity, and precision.
⚠️ RISK DISCLAIMER & BEST PRACTICES
Advanced Range Theory is a professional-grade analytical tool designed to enhance a trader's decision-making process. It does not provide direct buy or sell signals. The levels and classifications it generates are based on historical price action and mathematical probabilities. All trading involves substantial risk, and past performance is not indicative of future results. Always use this tool in conjunction with a robust risk management plan.

Fibonacci retracementHi all!
This indicator will show you the most recent Fibonacci retracement in the current trend. So if the trend is bullish the Fibonacci retracement will be drawn from swing low to high and from swing high to low in a bearish trend.
The uniqueness in this script lies in the adaptation to trend. To only plot the Fibonacci retracements according to the current market trend.
The trend is determined through break of structures (BOS) and change of characters (CHoCH). A change of character can be of type change of character plus (with a failed swing) and will then be shown as CHoCH+. This is possible through my library 'MarketStructure' (). It only uses break of structures and change of characters to be able to determine the trend, if you want a more detailed picture of the market structure you can use my script 'Market structure' ().
History and what to look for
Fibonacci retracement levels are used by many traders and are levels that are not Fibonacci sequence numbers themselves but they deriver from them. Some examples are:
23,6% - Divide a number by one three places ahead (e.g. 13/55)
38,2% - Divide a number by the one two places ahead (e.g. 21/55)
50% - Not from the Fibonacci sequence, but it's a number that price has reacted from in the past. Markets tend to retrace half a move before continuing
61,8% - The "golden retracement level". It derives from the "golden ratio" and is a core component of the Fibonacci sequence. The further you go in the Fibonacci sequence the preceding number divided by the current number will get closer and closer to this "golden ratio". This level is considered the most important Fibonacci retracement level by many traders
78,6% - Square root of 61.8%. This is often considered a deep correction (but not a trend reversal) and are often used for late entries
These levels are considered "key" and most significant. You want to look for a retracement of the price (down in a bullish trend and up in a bearish trend) to give you good entries.
Settings
For the trend you can set the pivot/swing lengths (right and left) and use the checkbox if you want these pivots to have labels. This can be done in the 'Market strucure' section.
In the 'Fibonacci retracement' section there is settings for the actual Fibonacci retracement. You can enable the trendline, set the color and the style of it. You can select which levels that should be shown by the indicator. There are 11 levels enabled by default, they are; 0-4.236. All settings in this section tries to be as similar to the "Fib Retracement" tool in Tradingview. You can also select the style of these lines (solid, dashed or dotted) and if you want them to extend to the right or not.
After this you can select if the Fibonacci retracement should be reversed or not, if prices should be displayed, if levels should be displayed and if to show the decimal levels or percentages and lastly the font size of these labels.
All defaults are based on the "Fib Retracement" tool by Tradingview.
Visualization
This indicator aims to be as visually similar to the default ("Fib Retracement") tool here on Tradingview. It will plot the Fibonacci retracement (called Auto Fibonacci/Auto fib) according to the trend from the library 'MarketStrucure'. The big differences from the "Fib Retracement" tool by Tradingview is that it's automatic (that adapts to trend), the market structure is visualized through lines and labels (showing 'BOS' for break of structures and 'CHoCH'/'CHoCH+' for change of characters) and that the labels showing information about the levels are positioned to be highly visible (left if <50% otherwise right if in a bullish trend, vice versa in a bearish trend or if reversed).
Don't hesitate if you have any feedback or nice feature suggestions!
Best of trading luck!

* `B`: the **highest high** in that same lookback
* `C`: current bar’s low is used as the **retracement point** (simplified)
2. **Extension Formula**
Using the Fibonacci formula:
```text
Extension Price = C + (B - A) × Fibonacci Ratio
```
The script calculates projected target prices at:
* **100%**
* **127.2%**
* **161.8%** (Golden Ratio)
* **200%**
* **261.8%**
3. **Distance Calculation**
For each level, it calculates:
* The **absolute difference** between current price and the extension level
* The **percentage difference**, which helps quickly assess how close or far the market is from that target

## 🔔 Example Use Case
You bought a stock at ₹100, and recent swing shows:
* A = ₹80
* B = ₹110
* C = ₹100
The 161.8% extension = 100 + (110 − 80) × 1.618 = ₹148.54
If the current price is ₹144, the table will show:
* Golden Ratio Target: ₹148.54
* Distance: −4.54
* Distance %: −3.05%
You now know your **target is near** and can plan your **exit or trailing stop**.

## 🧠 Benefits
* No need to draw extensions manually
* Automatically adapts to new swing structures
* Supports **scalping**, **swing**, and **positional** strategies
XAU/USD Lot Size CalculatorThis indicator automatically calculates the optimal lot size for XAUUSD (gold) based on the level of risk the trader wants to take. It is designed for traders using MetaTrader 4 or 5 and helps adjust position size according to the specific volatility of gold. The user can set the percentage of capital they are willing to risk on a single trade, for example 1%. The indicator also takes into account the stop loss level, which can be entered in pips or in dollars, as well as the account size (balance or equity).
Based on these parameters, it calculates the exact lot size that matches the risk amount. It then displays on the chart the recommended lot size, the risk amount in dollars, the pip value for XAUUSD, and a confirmation of the stop loss level. This type of indicator is useful for maintaining disciplined risk management and avoiding position sizing errors, especially on a highly volatile asset like gold.
Rpaid Killzone Breakout v3.6Final Indicator Title: Rapid Killzone Break & HTF Levels
Overview
Welcome to the Rapid Killzone Break & HTF Levels, an all-in-one trading toolkit designed for precision and context. This indicator was built to solve a common problem for day traders: how to combine a precise, lower-timeframe (LTF) entry model with the essential context of higher-timeframe (HTF) levels.
This tool is founded on a session-based breakout strategy, leveraging the volatility and liquidity generated during specific market hours (the "Killzones"). It then layers critical HTF support and resistance levels onto your chart, allowing you to make more informed trading decisions without ever needing to switch timeframes.
Whether you trade Forex, Gold, or major Indices, this indicator provides a comprehensive framework for identifying high-probability breakout opportunities.
The Core Strategy
The methodology is a powerful three-step process based on session liquidity and qualified breakouts:
The Killzone Range: The indicator first identifies the high and low established during a specific, high-volatility trading session (e.g., the first hour of London or New York). This range acts as a pool of liquidity. The core idea is that the market will often seek to "sweep" or run the liquidity resting above the session high or below the session low.
The Qualified Breakout: This is not just any breakout strategy. A valid entry signal only appears when price closes decisively outside the Killzone range with significant momentum. To ensure the quality of the signal, the breakout must meet several user-defined criteria:
The Killzone must have a minimum pip range.
The breakout candle must have a strong body-to-wick ratio.
The breakout must be accompanied by a spike in volume.
Higher Timeframe Confluence: A breakout is more likely to succeed if it aligns with the HTF narrative. This indicator plots the previous higher-timeframe candle's high and low directly onto your chart. These levels act as powerful magnets for price or as formidable support/resistance zones. A breakout on the LTF that targets the HTF previous high is a much higher-probability setup than one trading directly into it.
Key Features
📊 DST-Aware Killzones: Automatically adjusting session boxes for London and New York. The timezones are fully configurable (e.g., Europe/London, America/New_York) and automatically handle Daylight Saving Time changes so you never have to manually adjust them.
📈 Killzone Pivots: Automatically draws the High, Low, and a dotted Midpoint from each Killzone session, acting as key intraday levels.
🏛️ Higher Timeframe (HTF) Levels: Plots the previous HTF candle's High and Low as dashed lines on your chart, providing critical context for support, resistance, and targets.
🕯️ HTF Mini-Candles: Displays a visual summary of the last three HTF candles on the right side of your chart, so you can see the HTF trend at a glance.
⏰ Custom Vertical Timestamps: Up to three configurable vertical lines with labels to mark key events like other session opens (e.g., "Sydney Open").
🎛️ Advanced Breakout Filters: Fine-tune your signals with filters for minimum Killzone range, minimum candle body percentage, and volume spikes. (Important: The volume filter requires a data feed that provides real volume, such as OANDA, FXCM, or futures/stock data).
✅ Dynamic Entry Advice Table: After a signal, a table provides a suggested entry technique (e.g., "50% retrace to signal candle") based on how far price has moved from the breakout level.
📋 Killzone Range Stats Table: A clean table shows the current and average pip range for both the London and New York sessions, helping you gauge current volatility.
🛠️ Fully Customizable: Nearly every visual element can be toggled on/off or have its color and style changed to suit your personal chart theme.
How to Use This Indicator
This tool is designed to provide a clear, step-by-step workflow for your trading sessions.
Setup: In the settings, choose your desired Reference Timeframe (e.g., 240 for 4-Hour). Configure your Killzone session times and colors.
Context is King: Before the session begins, take note of where price is in relation to the dashed HTF High/Low lines. Is price consolidating below the previous HTF low? A breakout might target it. Is price approaching the HTF high? This could be a take-profit area or a point of resistance.
Wait for the Range: Allow the London or New York Killzone (the colored box) to form completely.
Anticipate the Breakout: Once the session box is closed, the indicator is now hunting for a valid breakout.
Validate the Signal: When a "Long" or "Short" label appears, this is your entry signal. Check the Info-Box data (RSI, volume, candle body %) to confirm the strength of the move.
Manage the Trade: Use the Killzone pivots and the HTF High/Low lines as potential areas to manage your trade, take partial profits, or identify a final target. Check the Entry Advice table for ideas on refined entries if you miss the initial move.
Applicable Markets
This strategy is most effective on instruments known for their session-based volatility. It has been tested and works exceptionally well on:
Forex Majors: EUR/USD, GBP/USD, etc.
Gold: XAU/USD
Indices: NASDAQ 100 (NQ100), S&P 500 (SPX500)
It is best used on lower timeframes (such as the 5-minute or 15-minute chart) for trade execution.
Pristine Value Areas & MGIThe Pristine Value Areas indicator enables users to perform comprehensive technical analysis through the lens of the market profile in a fraction of the time! 🏆
A Market Profile is a charting technique devised by J. Peter Steidlmayer, a trader at the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT), in the 1980's. He created it to gain a deeper understanding of market behavior and to analyze the auction process in financial markets. A market profile is used to analyze an auction using price, volume, and time to create a distribution-based view of trading activity. It organizes market data into a bell-curve-like structure, which reveals areas of value, balance, and imbalance.
💠 How is a Value Area Calculated?
A value area is a distribution of 68%-70% of the trading volume over a specific time interval, which represents one standard deviation above and below the point of control, which is the most highly traded level over that period.
The key reference points are as follows:
Value area low (VAL) - The lower boundary of a value area
Value area high (VAH) - The upper boundary of a value area
Point of Control (POC) - The price level at which the highest amount of a trading period's volume occurred
If we take the probability distribution of trading activity and flip it 90 degrees, the result is our Pristine Value Area!
Market Profile is our preferred method of technical analysis at Pristine Capital because it provides an objective and repeatable assessment of whether an asset is being accumulated or distributed by institutional investors. Market Profile levels work remarkably well for identifying areas of interest, because so many institutional trading algorithms have been programmed to use these levels since the 1980's!
The benefits of using Market Profile include better trade location, improved risk management, and enhanced market context. It helps traders differentiate between trending and consolidating markets, identify high-probability trade setups, and adjust their strategies based on whether the market is in balance (consolidation) or imbalance (trending). Unlike traditional indicators that rely on past price movements, Market Profile provides real-time insights into trader behavior, giving an edge to those who can interpret its nuances effectively.
Virgin Point of Control (VPOC) - A point of control from a previous time period that has not yet been revisited in subsequent periods. VPOCs are great for identifying prior supply or demand zones.
Below is a great example of price reversing lower after taking out an upside VPOC
💠 Are all POCs Created Equal?
If POCs are used to gauge supply & demand zones at key levels, then a POC with higher volume should be viewed as more significant than a POC that traded lower volume, right? We created Golden POCs as a tool to identify high volume POCs on all timeframes.
Golden POC (GPOC) - A POC that traded the highest volume compared to prior POCs (proprietary to Pristine Capital)
We calculate value areas for the following time intervals based on the user selected timeframe:
5 Minute and 15 Minute Timeframes -> Daily Value Area
The daily value area paints the distribution of the PRIOR session's trading activity. The "d" in the label references for VAHd, POCd and VALd is a visual cue that value area shown is daily.
1 Hour Timeframe -> Weekly Value Area
The weekly value area paints the distribution of the PRIOR week's trading activity. The "w" in the label references for VAHw, POCw and VALw is a visual cue that value area shown is weekly.
1 Day Timeframe -> Monthly Value Area
The monthly value area paints the distribution of the PRIOR month's trading activity. The "m" in the label references for VAHm, POCm and VALm is a visual cue that value area shown is monthly.
1 Week Timeframe -> Yearly Value Area
The yearly value area paints the distribution of the PRIOR year's trading activity. The "y" in the label references for VAHy, POCy and VALy is a visual cue that value area shown is yearly.
💠 What is a developing value area?
The developing value area provides insight into the upcoming value area while it is still forming! It appears when 80% of the way through the current value area. As the end of a trading period approaches, it can make sense to start trading off the developing value area. When the time period flips, the developing value area becomes the active value area!
💠 Value Areas Trading Setups
Two popular market profile concepts are the bullish and bearish 80% rules. The concept is that there is an 80% probability that the market will traverse the entire relevant value area.
Bullish 80% Rule - If a security opens a period below the value area low , and subsequently closes above it, the bullish 80% rule triggers, turning the value area green. One can trade for a move to the top of the value area, using a close below the value area low as a potential stop!
In the below example, HOOD triggered the bullish 80% rule after it reclaimed the monthly value area!
HOOD proceeded to rally through the monthly value area and beyond in subsequent trading sessions. Finding the first stocks to trigger the bullish 80% rule after a market correction is key for spotting the next market leaders!
Bearish 80% Rule - If a security opens a period above the value area high , and subsequently closes below it, the bearish 80% rule triggers, turning the value area red. One can trade for a move to the bottom of the value area, using a close above the value area high as a potential stop!
ES proceeded to follow through and test the value area low before trending below the weekly value area
Value Area Breakouts - When a security is inside of value, the auction is in balance. When it breaks out from a value area, it could be entering a period of price discovery. One can trade these breaks out of value with tight risk control by setting a stop inside the value area! These breakouts can be traded on all chart timeframes depending on the timeframe of the individual trader. Combining multiple timeframes can result in even more effective trading setups.
RBLX broke out from the monthly value area on 4/22/25👇
RBLX proceeded to rally +62.78% in 39 trading sessions following the monthly VAH breakout!
💠 Market Generated Information to Improve Your Situational Awareness!
In addition to the value areas, we've also included stat tables with useful market generated information. The stats displayed vary based on the timeframe the user has up on their screen. This incentivizes traders to check the chart on multiple timeframes before taking a trade!
Metrics Grouped By Use Case
Performance
▪ YTD α - YTD Alpha (α) measures the risk-adjusted, excess return of a security over its user defined benchmark, on a year-to-date basis.
▪ MTD α - MTD Alpha (α) measures the risk-adjusted, excess return of a security over its user defined benchmark, on a month-to-date basis.
▪ WTD α - WTD Alpha (α) measures the risk-adjusted, excess return of a security over its user defined benchmark, on a week-to-date basis.
▪ YTD %Δ - Year-to-date percent change in price
▪ MTD %Δ - Month-to-date percent change in price
▪ WTD %Δ - Week-to-date percent change in price
Volatility
▪ ATR % - The Average True Range (ATR) expressed as a percentage of an asset's price.
▪ Beta - Measures the price volatility of a security compared to the S&P 500 over the prior 5 years (since inception if 5 years of data is not available)
Risk Analysis
▪ LODx - Low-of-day extension - ATR % multiple from the low of day (measures how extended a stock is from its low of day)
▪ MAx - Moving average extension - ATR % multiple from the user-defined moving average (measures how extended a security is from its moving average). Default moving average = 50D SMA
Why does MAx matter?
MAx measures the number of ATR % multiples a security is trading away from a key moving average. The default moving average length is 50 days.
MAx can be used to identify mean reversion trades . When a security trends strongly in one direction and moves significantly above or below its moving average, the price often tends to revert back toward the average.
Example, if the ATR % of the security is 5%, and the stock is trading 50% higher than the 50D SMA, the MAx would be 50%/5% = 10. A user might opt to take a countertrend trade when the MAx exceeds a predetermined level.
The MAx can also be useful when trading breakouts above or below the key moving average of your choosing. The lower the MAx, the tighter stop loss one can take if trading against that level.

💠 Trend Analysis
The Trend Analysis section consists of short-term and long-term stage analysis data as well as the value area timeframe and price in relation to the value area.
Stage Analysis
▪ ST ⇅ - Short-term stage analysis indicator
▪ LT ⇅ - Long-term stage analysis indicator
Short-term and long-term stage analysis data is provided in the two rightmost columns of each table. The columns are labeled ST ⇅ and LT ⇅.
Why is Stage Analysis important? Popularized by Stan Weinstein, stage analysis is a trend following system that classifies assets into four stages based on price-trend analysis.
The problem? The interpretation of stage analysis is highly subjective. Based on the methodology provided in Stan Weinstein’s books, five different traders could look at the same chart, and come to different conclusions as to which stage the security is in!
We solved for this by creating our own methodology for classifying stocks into stages using moving averages. This indicator automates that analysis, and produces short-term and long-term trend signals based on user-defined key moving averages. You won’t find this in any textbook or course, because it’s completely unique to the Pristine trading methodology.
Our indicator calculates a short-term trend signal using two moving averages; a fast moving average, and a slow moving average. We default to the 10D EMA as the fast moving average & the 20D SMA as the slow moving average. A trend signal is generated based on where price is currently trading with respect to the fast moving average and the slow moving average. We use the signal to guide shorter-term swing trades.
In general, we want to take long trades in stocks with strengthening trends, and short trades in stocks with weakening trends. The user is free to change the moving averages based on their own short-term timeframe. Every trader is unique!
The same process is applied to calculate the long-term trend signal. We default to the 50D SMA as our fast moving average, and the 200D SMA as the slow moving average for the LT ⇅ signal calculation, but users can change these to fit their own unique trading style.
What is Stage 1?
Stage 1 identifies stocks that transitioned from downtrends, into bottoming bases.
Stage 1A - Bottom Signal: Marks the first day a security shows initial signs of recovery after a downtrend, with early indications of strength emerging.👇
Stage 1B - Bottoming Process: Identifies the ongoing phase where the security continues to stabilize and strengthen, confirming the base-building process after the initial signal.👇
Stage 1R - Failed Uptrend: Detects when a security that had entered an early uptrend loses momentum and slips back into a bottoming phase, signaling a failed breakout.👇
What is Stage 2?
Stage 2 identifies stocks that transitioned from bottoming bases to uptrends.
Stage 2A - Breakout: Marks the first day a security decisively breaks out, signaling the start of a new uptrend.👇
Stage 2B - Uptrend: Identifies when the security continues to trade in an established uptrend following the initial breakout, with momentum building but not yet showing full strength.👇
Stage 2C - Strong Uptrend: Detects when the uptrend strengthens further, with the security displaying clear signs of accelerating strength and buying pressure.👇
Stage 2R - Failed Breakdown: Detects when a security that had recently entered a corrective phase reverses course and reclaims its upward trajectory, moving back into an uptrend.👇
What is Stage 3?
Stage 3 identifies stocks that transitioned from uptrends to topping bases.
Stage 3A - Top Signal: Marks the first day a security shows initial signs of weakness after an uptrend, indicating the start of a potential topping phase.👇
Stage 3B - Topping Process: Identifies the period following the initial signal when the security continues to show signs of distribution and potential trend exhaustion.👇
Stage 3R - Failed Breakdown: Detects when a security that had entered a deeper corrective phase reverses upward, recovering enough strength to re-enter the topping phase.👇
What is Stage 4?
Stage 4 identifies stocks that transitioned from topping bases to downtrends.
Stage 4A - Breakdown: Marks the first day a security decisively breaks below key support levels, signaling the start of a new downward trend.👇
Stage 4B - Downtrend: Identifies when the security continues to trend lower following the initial breakdown, with sustained bearish momentum, though not yet fully entrenched.👇
Stage 4C - Strong Downtrend: Detects when the downtrend intensifies, with the security displaying clear signs of accelerating weakness and selling pressure.👇
Stage 4R - Failed Bottom: Detects when a security that had begun to show early signs of bottoming reverses course and resumes its decline, falling back into a downtrend.👇
Stage N/A - Recent IPO: Applies to stocks that recently IPO’ed and don’t have enough data to calculate all necessary moving averages.
Value Area
In Trend Analysis, the value area information is helpful to gauge price in relation to the value area.
▪ VA(y) - Categorizes the security based on the relation of price to the yearly value area
▪ VA(m) - Categorizes the security based on the relation of price to the monthly value area
▪ VA(w) - Categorizes the security based on the relation of price to the weekly value area
Value area states:
▪ ABOVE = Price above the value area high
▪ BELOW = Price below the value area low
▪ INSIDE = Price inside the value area
▪ Bull 80% = Bullish 80% rule in effect
▪ Bear 80% rule = Bearish 80% rule in effect
For example, in the chart above, VA(m) - ABOVE indicates a monthly value area and price is above the VAH.
💠 What Makes This Indicator Unique
There are many value area indicators, however...
Value Area
▪ Golden POC (GPOC) - This is a proprietary concept.
▪ Unique Label Customization
Pristine value areas often comprehensive and unique label customizations. Styles include options to display any combination of the following on your labels:
• Price levels associated with market profile levels
• % distance of market profile levels from security price
• ATR% extension of market profile levels from security price
Multi-Timeframe Analysis
Based on the chart timeframe, unique market generated information is shown to facilitate multi-timeframe analysis.
▪ Weekly Timeframe
On the weekly timeframe the focus is the bigger picture and the metrics reflect this perspective. Performance data includes YTD Alpha and YTD percent change in price. Volatility is measured using ATR % and the industry standard beta. Trend analysis for this higher timeframe include the 52-week range, which measures where a security is trading in relation to its 52wk high and 52wk low. Also included is the where price is in relation to yearly value area.
▪ Daily Timeframe
As one drills down to the daily timeframe, the performance metrics include MTD alpha and MTD percent change in price.
Risk analysis includes the low-of-day extension (LODx), which is the ATR % multiple from the low of the day, to measures how extended a stock is from its low of day. In addition, the moving average extension (MAx) is the ATR % multiple from the user-defined moving average, measures how extended a security is from its
moving average. The default moving average is the 50D SMA, however this can be customized in Settings.
Trend Analysis on the daily timeframe includes the Pristine Capital methodology for classifying stocks into stages using moving averages. Both short-term and long-term stage analysis data is included. Finally, price in relation to monthly value area is shown.
▪ Hourly Timeframe
An the hourly timeframe, performance metrics include WTD alpha and WTD percent change in price. Trend analysis includes the daily closing range (DCR) and price in relation to weekly value area.
