## Overview
“FVG OB” (Fair Value Gap Order Block) identifies higher-timeframe candle ranges where a gap (imbalance) exists between two non-consecutive candles, signaling potential institutional order blocks. This module draws bullish or bearish FVG OB boxes on your lower-timeframe chart, extends them until price interacts a specified number of times, and then finalizes (recolors) the box.
---
## Inputs
- **Enable FVG OB Boxes** (`bool`)
Toggle drawing of HTF FVG OB boxes on the chart.
- **Enable FVG OB Midlines** (`bool`)
Toggle drawing of a midpoint line inside each FVG OB box.
- **FVG OB Close Count** (`int` 1–10)
Number of HTF closes beyond the FVG range required to finalize (recolor) the box.
- **FVG OB Bull Color** (`color`)
Fill & border color for bullish FVG OB boxes.
- **FVG OB Bear Color** (`color`)
Fill & border color for bearish FVG OB boxes.
- **FVG OB Box Transparency** (`int` 1–100)
Opacity level for FVG OB box fills (higher = more transparent).
---
## How It Works
1. **HTF Data Retrieval**
- The script uses `request.security()` (via `GetHTFrevised()`) to fetch HTF OHLC and historical values:
- `_htfHigh3` (high three bars ago) and `_htfLow1` (low one bar ago) for bullish FVG OB.
- `_htfLow3` (low three bars ago) and `_htfHigh1` (high one bar ago) for bearish FVG OB.
- It also tracks the HTF `bar_index` on the lower timeframe to align drawing.
2. **FVG OB Detection**
- **Bullish FVG OB**: Occurs when the HTF low of the previous bar (`low `) is strictly above the HTF high of three bars ago (`high `), creating a gap.
- **Bearish FVG OB**: Occurs when the HTF high of the previous bar (`high `) is strictly below the HTF low of three bars ago (`low `), creating a gap.
3. **Box Creation**
- On each new HTF bar (`ta.change(time(HTF)) != 0`), if a bullish or bearish FVG OB condition is met, the script calls `CreateBoxData()` with:
- **Bullish**: `bottom = HTF low `, `top = HTF high `, `_isBull = true`.
- **Bearish**: `bottom = HTF low `, `top = HTF high `, `_isBull = false`.
- Midline toggled by input.
- A `BoxData` struct is created and stored in either the Bull or Bear array.
4. **Box Extension & Finalization**
- On **every LTF bar**, `ProcessBoxDatas(...)` iterates over all active FVG OB boxes:
1. **Extend Right Edge**: `box.set_right(bar_index)` ensures the box follows the latest bar.
2. **Record Volume Delta**: Tracks buy/sell volume inside the box.
3. **Touch Stage Update**: `modBoxUpdateStage()` increments `_stage` when price touches its “basePoint” (for FVG OB, the basePrice is one side of the gap).
4. **Finalize**: `setBoxFinalize()` checks if the configured number of closes beyond the FVG gap (`FVG OB Close Count`) has occurred. If so:
- `_isActive := false`
- Border and background colors are changed to the “Box Close Color” (input).
- Finalized boxes remain on screen semi-transparent, indicating that the FVG OB zone has been tested.
5. **Midline (Optional)**
- If “Enable FVG OB Midlines” is checked, `ProcessBoxDatas()` also extends a horizontal midpoint line inside the box with `line.set_x2(bar_index)`.
---
## Usage Instructions
1. **Installation**
- Copy the FVG OB section of the Pine Script into TradingView’s Pine Editor (ensure the library import is included).
- Click “Add to Chart.”
2. **Configure Inputs**
- Choose a Higher Time Frame via the dropdown (e.g., “4시간” maps to a 4H timeframe).
- Toggle “Enable FVG OB Boxes” and “Enable FVG OB Midlines.”
- Select colors for bullish and bearish boxes and set transparency.
- Adjust “FVG OB Close Count” to control how many closes beyond the gap finalize the box.
3. **Interpretation**
- **Active FVG OB Boxes** extend to the right until price closes beyond the gap range the specified number of times.
- When finalized, each box changes to the “Box Close Color,” signaling that institutional orders in that gap have likely been filled.

Schmit Trading LiquidityDescription
Schmit Trading Liquidity Marker automatically spots and labels open liquidity sweep levels by detecting classic stop-run patterns (Bull→Bear for highs, Bear→Bull for lows) across multiple timeframes. Lines are drawn exactly at the wick of the triggering candle and removed as soon as price “sweeps” through them, keeping your chart clean and focused on live levels only.
How It Works
1. Pattern Detection
• Liquidity High: When a bullish candle is immediately followed by a bearish candle (Bull→Bear), the script records the higher of the two wicks.
• Liquidity Low: When a bearish candle is immediately followed by a bullish candle (Bear→Bull), the script records the lower of the two wicks.
2. Multi-Timeframe Support
• Choose up to six timeframes (5 min, 15 min, 30 min, 1 h, 4 h, daily) via checkboxes.
• Each timeframe is evaluated independently, and liquidity levels are drawn on your current chart.
3. Precision Wick Placement
• Lines start at bar_index – 1 so they align exactly with the wick of the signal candle, regardless of your chart’s timeframe.
4. Automatic Cleanup
• As soon as price closes beyond a drawn line (sweep), that line is deleted automatically.

FvgPanel█ OVERVIEW
This library provides functionalities for creating and managing a display panel within a Pine Script™ indicator. Its primary purpose is to offer a structured way to present Fair Value Gap (FVG) information, specifically the nearest bullish and bearish FVG levels across different timeframes (Current, MTF, HTF), directly on the chart. The library handles the table's structure, header initialization, and dynamic cell content updates.
█ CONCEPTS
The core of this library revolves around presenting summarized FVG data in a clear, tabular format. Key concepts include:
FVG Data Aggregation and Display
The panel is designed to show at-a-glance information about the closest active FVG mitigation levels. It doesn't calculate these FVGs itself but relies on the main script to provide this data. The panel is structured with columns for timeframes (TF), Bullish FVGs, and Bearish FVGs, and rows for "Current" (LTF), "MTF" (Medium Timeframe), and "HTF" (High Timeframe).
The `panelData` User-Defined Type (UDT)
To facilitate the transfer of information to be displayed, the library defines a UDT named `panelData`. This structure is central to the library's operation and is designed to hold all necessary values for populating the panel's data cells for each relevant FVG. Its fields include:
Price levels for the nearest bullish and bearish FVGs for LTF, MTF, and HTF (e.g., `nearestBullMitLvl`, `nearestMtfBearMitLvl`).
Boolean flags to indicate if these FVGs are classified as "Large Volume" (LV) (e.g., `isNearestBullLV`, `isNearestMtfBearLV`).
Color information for the background and text of each data cell, allowing for conditional styling based on the FVG's status or proximity (e.g., `ltfBullBgColor`, `mtfBearTextColor`).
The design of `panelData` allows the main script to prepare all display-related data and styling cues in one object, which is then passed to the `updatePanel` function for rendering. This separation of data preparation and display logic keeps the library focused on its presentation task.
Visual Cues and Formatting
Price Formatting: Price levels are formatted to match the instrument's minimum tick size using an internal `formatPrice` helper function, ensuring consistent and accurate display.
Large FVG Icon: If an FVG is marked as a "Large Volume" FVG in the `panelData` object, a user-specified icon (e.g., an emoji) is prepended to its price level in the panel, providing an immediate visual distinction.
Conditional Styling: The background and text colors for each FVG level displayed in the panel can be individually controlled via the `panelData` object, enabling the main script to implement custom styling rules (e.g., highlighting the overall nearest FVG across all timeframes).
Handling Missing Data: If no FVG data is available for a particular cell (i.e., the corresponding level in `panelData` is `na`), the panel displays "---" and uses a specified background color for "Not Available" cells.
█ CALCULATIONS AND USE
Using the `FvgPanel` typically involves a two-stage process: initialization and dynamic updates.
Step 1: Panel Creation
First, an instance of the panel table is created once, usually during the script's initial setup. This is done using the `createPanel` function.
Call `createPanel()` with parameters defining its position on the chart, border color, border width, header background color, header text color, and header text size.
This function initializes the table with three columns ("TF", "Bull FVG", "Bear FVG") and three data rows labeled "Current", "MTF", and "HTF", plus a header row.
Store the returned `table` object in a `var` variable to persist it across bars.
// Example:
var table infoPanel = na
if barstate.isfirst
infoPanel := panel.createPanel(
position.top_right,
color.gray,
1,
color.new(color.gray, 50),
color.white,
size.small
)
Step 2: Panel Updates
On each bar, or whenever the FVG data changes (typically on `barstate.islast` or `barstate.isrealtime` for efficiency), the panel's content needs to be refreshed. This is done using the `updatePanel` function.
Populate an instance of the `panelData` UDT with the latest FVG information. This includes setting the nearest bullish/bearish mitigation levels for LTF, MTF, and HTF, their LV status, and their desired background and text colors.
Call `updatePanel()`, passing the persistent `table` object (from Step 1), the populated `panelData` object, the icon string for LV FVGs, the default text color for FVG levels, the background color for "N/A" cells, and the general text size for the data cells.
The `updatePanel` function will then clear previous data and fill the table cells with the new values and styles provided in the `panelData` object.
// Example (inside a conditional block like 'if barstate.islast'):
var panelData fvgDisplayData = panelData.new()
// ... (logic to populate fvgDisplayData fields) ...
// fvgDisplayData.nearestBullMitLvl = ...
// fvgDisplayData.ltfBullBgColor = ...
// ... etc.
if not na(infoPanel)
panel.updatePanel(
infoPanel,
fvgDisplayData,
"🔥", // LV FVG Icon
color.white,
color.new(color.gray, 70), // NA Cell Color
size.small
)
This workflow ensures that the panel is drawn only once and its cells are efficiently updated as new data becomes available.
█ NOTES
Data Source: This library is solely responsible for the visual presentation of FVG data in a table. It does not perform any FVG detection or calculation. The calling script must compute or retrieve the FVG levels, LV status, and desired styling to populate the `panelData` object.
Styling Responsibility: While `updatePanel` applies colors passed via the `panelData` object, the logic for *determining* those colors (e.g., highlighting the closest FVG to the current price) resides in the calling script.
Performance: The library uses `table.cell()` to update individual cells, which is generally more efficient than deleting and recreating the table on each update. However, the frequency of `updatePanel` calls should be managed by the main script (e.g., using `barstate.islast` or `barstate.isrealtime`) to avoid excessive processing on historical bars.
`series float` Handling: The price level fields within the `panelData` UDT (e.g., `nearestBullMitLvl`) can accept `series float` values, as these are typically derived from price data. The internal `formatPrice` function correctly handles `series float` for display.
Dependencies: The `FvgPanel` itself is self-contained and does not import other user libraries. It uses standard Pine Script™ table and string functionalities.

FvgCalculations█ OVERVIEW
This library provides the core calculation engine for identifying Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) across different timeframes and for processing their interaction with price. It includes functions to detect FVGs on both the current chart and higher timeframes, as well as to check for their full or partial mitigation.
█ CONCEPTS
The library's primary functions revolve around the concept of Fair Value Gaps and their lifecycle.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) Identification
An FVG, or imbalance, represents a price range where buying or selling pressure was significant enough to cause a rapid price movement, leaving an "inefficiency" in the market. This library identifies FVGs based on three-bar patterns:
Bullish FVG: Forms when the low of the current bar (bar 3) is higher than the high of the bar two periods prior (bar 1). The FVG is the space between the high of bar 1 and the low of bar 3.
Bearish FVG: Forms when the high of the current bar (bar 3) is lower than the low of the bar two periods prior (bar 1). The FVG is the space between the low of bar 1 and the high of bar 3.
The library provides distinct functions for detecting FVGs on the current (Low Timeframe - LTF) and specified higher timeframes (Medium Timeframe - MTF / High Timeframe - HTF).
FVG Mitigation
Mitigation refers to price revisiting an FVG.
Full Mitigation: An FVG is considered fully mitigated when price completely closes the gap. For a bullish FVG, this occurs if the current low price moves below or touches the FVG's bottom. For a bearish FVG, it occurs if the current high price moves above or touches the FVG's top.
Partial Mitigation (Entry/Fill): An FVG is partially mitigated when price enters the FVG's range but does not fully close it. The library tracks the extent of this fill. For a bullish FVG, if the current low price enters the FVG from above, that low becomes the new effective top of the remaining FVG. For a bearish FVG, if the current high price enters the FVG from below, that high becomes the new effective bottom of the remaining FVG.
FVG Interaction
This refers to any instance where the current bar's price range (high to low) touches or crosses into the currently unfilled portion of an active (visible and not fully mitigated) FVG.
Multi-Timeframe Data Acquisition
To detect FVGs on higher timeframes, specific historical bar data (high, low, and time of bars at indices and relative to the higher timeframe's last completed bar) is required. The requestMultiTFBarData function is designed to fetch this data efficiently.
█ CALCULATIONS AND USE
The functions in this library are typically used in a sequence to manage FVGs:
1. Data Retrieval (for MTF/HTF FVGs):
Call requestMultiTFBarData() with the desired higher timeframe string (e.g., "60", "D").
This returns a tuple of htfHigh1, htfLow1, htfTime1, htfHigh3, htfLow3, htfTime3.
2. FVG Detection:
For LTF FVGs: Call detectFvg() on each confirmed bar. It uses high , low, low , and high along with barstate.isconfirmed.
For MTF/HTF FVGs: Call detectMultiTFFvg() using the data obtained from requestMultiTFBarData().
Both detection functions return an fvgObject (defined in FvgTypes) if an FVG is found, otherwise na. They also can classify FVGs as "Large Volume" (LV) if classifyLV is true and the FVG size (top - bottom) relative to the tfAtr (Average True Range of the respective timeframe) meets the lvAtrMultiplier.
3. FVG State Updates (on each new bar for existing FVGs):
First, check for overall price interaction using fvgInteractionCheck(). This function determines if the current bar's high/low has touched or entered the FVG's currentTop or currentBottom.
If interaction occurs and the FVG is not already mitigated:
Call checkMitigation() to determine if the FVG has been fully mitigated by the current bar's currentHigh and currentLow. If true, the FVG's isMitigated status is updated.
If not fully mitigated, call checkPartialMitigation() to see if the price has further entered the FVG. This function returns the newLevel to which the FVG has been filled (e.g., currentLow for a bullish FVG, currentHigh for bearish). This newLevel is then used to update the FVG's currentTop or currentBottom.
The calling script (e.g., fvgMain.c) is responsible for storing and managing the array of fvgObject instances and passing them to these update functions.
█ NOTES
Bar State for LTF Detection: The detectFvg() function relies on barstate.isconfirmed to ensure FVG detection is based on closed bars, preventing FVGs from being detected prematurely on the currently forming bar.
Higher Timeframe Data (lookahead): The requestMultiTFBarData() function uses lookahead = barmerge.lookahead_on. This means it can access historical data from the higher timeframe that corresponds to the current bar on the chart, even if the higher timeframe bar has not officially closed. This is standard for multi-timeframe analysis aiming to plot historical HTF data accurately on a lower timeframe chart.
Parameter Typing: Functions like detectMultiTFFvg and detectFvg infer the type for boolean (classifyLV) and numeric (lvAtrMultiplier) parameters passed from the main script, while explicitly typed series parameters (like htfHigh1, currentAtr) expect series data.
fvgObject Dependency: The FVG detection functions return fvgObject instances, and fvgInteractionCheck takes an fvgObject as a parameter. This UDT is defined in the FvgTypes library, making it a dependency for using FvgCalculations.
ATR for LV Classification: The tfAtr (for MTF/HTF) and currentAtr (for LTF) parameters are expected to be the Average True Range values for the respective timeframes. These are used, if classifyLV is enabled, to determine if an FVG's size qualifies it as a "Large Volume" FVG based on the lvAtrMultiplier.
MTF/HTF FVG Appearance Timing: When displaying FVGs from a higher timeframe (MTF/HTF) on a lower timeframe (LTF) chart, users might observe that the most recent MTF/HTF FVG appears one LTF bar later compared to its appearance on a native MTF/HTF chart. This is an expected behavior due to the detection mechanism in `detectMultiTFFvg`. This function uses historical bar data from the MTF/HTF (specifically, data equivalent to `HTF_bar ` and `HTF_bar `) to identify an FVG. Therefore, all three bars forming the FVG on the MTF/HTF must be fully closed and have shifted into these historical index positions relative to the `request.security` call from the LTF chart before the FVG can be detected and displayed on the LTF. This ensures that the MTF/HTF FVG is identified based on confirmed, closed bars from the higher timeframe.
█ EXPORTED FUNCTIONS

Candle Breakout Oscillator [LuxAlgo]The Candle Breakout Oscillator tool allows traders to identify the strength and weakness of the three main market states: bullish, bearish, and choppy.
Know who controls the market at any given moment with an oscillator display with values ranging from 0 to 100 for the three main plots and upper and lower thresholds of 80 and 20 by default.
🔶 USAGE
The Candle Breakout Oscillator represents the three main market states, with values ranging from 0 to 100. By default, the upper and lower thresholds are set at 80 and 20, and when a value exceeds these thresholds, a colored area is displayed for the trader's convenience.
This tool is based on pure price action breakouts. In this context, we understand a breakout as a close above the last candle's high or low, which is representative of market strength. All other close positions in relation to the last candle's limits are considered weakness.
So, when the bullish plot (in green) is at the top of the oscillator (values above 80), it means that the bullish breakouts (close below the last candle low) are at their maximum value over the calculation window, indicating an uptrend. The same interpretation can be made for the bearish plot (in red), indicating a downtrend when high.
On the other hand, weakness is indicated when values are below the lower threshold (20), indicating that breakouts are at their minimum over the last 100 candles. Below are some examples of the possible main interpretations:
There are three main things to look for in this oscillator:
Value reaches extreme
Value leaves extreme
Bullish/Bearish crossovers
As we can see on the chart, before the first crossover happens the bears come out of strength (top) and the bulls come out of weakness (bottom), then after the crossover the bulls reach strength (top) and the bears weakness (bottom), this process is repeated in reverse for the second crossover.
The other main feature of the oscillator is its ability to identify periods of sideways trends when the sideways values have upper readings above 80, and trending behavior when the sideways values have lower readings below 20. As we just saw in the case of bullish vs. bearish, sideways values signal a change in behavior when reaching or leaving the extremes of the oscillator.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Data Smoothing

$ADD LevelsThis Pine Script is designed to track and visualize the NYSE Advance-Decline Line (ADD). The Advance-Decline Line is a popular market breadth indicator, showing the difference between advancing and declining stocks on the NYSE. It’s often used to gauge overall market sentiment and strength.
1. //@version=5
This line tells TradingView to use Pine Script v5, the latest and most powerful version of Pine.
2. indicator(" USI:ADD Levels", overlay=false)
• This creates a new indicator called ” USI:ADD Levels”.
• overlay=false means it will appear in a separate pane, not on the main price chart.
3. add = request.security(...)
This fetches real-time data from the symbol USI:ADD (Advance-Decline Line) using a 1-minute timeframe. You can change the timeframe if needed.

Cap's Dual Auto Fib RetracementThis will draw both a bullish retracement and a bearish retracement. It's defaulted to just show the 0.618 level as I feel like this is the "make or break" level.
- A close below the bullish 0.618 retracement would be considered very bearish.
- A close above the bearish 0.618 would be considered very bullish.
(You can still configure whichever levels you want, however.)
This script was removed by TradingView last time it was published. I couldn't find another script that would provide both bearish/bullish retracements, so I'm assuming this is "original" enough. Maybe it was removed because the description wasn't long enough, so...
Detailed Description:
This indicator automatically plots Fibonacci retracement levels based on zigzag pivot points for both bullish (low-to-high) and bearish (high-to-low) price movements. It identifies key pivot points using a customizable deviation multiplier and depth setting, then draws Fibonacci levels (0, 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786, 1) with user-defined visibility and colors for each level.
Features:
Deviation: Adjusts sensitivity for detecting pivots (default: 2).
Depth: Sets minimum bars for pivot calculation (default: 10).
Extend Lines: Option to extend lines left, right, or both.
Show Prices/Levels: Toggle price and level labels, with options for value or percentage display.
Labels Position: Choose left or right label placement.
Background Transparency: Customize fill transparency between levels.
Alerts: Triggers when price crosses any Fibonacci level.
Usage: Apply to any chart to visualize potential support/resistance zones. Adjust settings to suit your trading style. Requires sufficient data; use lower timeframes or reduce depth if pivots are not detected.

Delta Volume Profile [BigBeluga]🔵Delta Volume Profile
A dynamic volume analysis tool that builds two separate horizontal profiles: one for bullish candles and one for bearish candles. This indicator helps traders identify the true balance of buying vs. selling volume across price levels, highlighting points of control (POCs), delta dominance, and hidden volume clusters with remarkable precision.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Split Volume Profiles (Bull vs. Bear):
The indicator separates volume based on candle direction:
If close > open , the candle’s volume is added to the bullish profile (positive volume).
If close < open , it contributes to the bearish profile (negative volume).
ATR-Based Binning:
The price range over the selected lookback is split into bins using ATR(200) as the bin height.
Each bin accumulates both bull and bear volumes to form the dual-sided profile.
Bull and Bear Volume Bars:
Bullish volumes are shown as right-facing bars on the right side, colored with a bullish gradient.
Bearish volumes appear as left-facing bars on the left side, shaded with a bearish gradient.
Each bar includes a volume label (e.g., +12.45K or -9.33K) to show exact volume at that price level.
Points of Control (POC) Highlighting:
The bin with the highest bullish volume is marked with a border in POC+ color (default: blue).
The bin with the highest bearish volume is marked with a POC− color (default: orange).
Total Volume Density Map:
A neutral gray background box is plotted behind candles showing the total volume (bull + bear) per bin.
This reveals high-interest price zones regardless of direction.
Delta and Total Volume Summary:
A Delta label appears at the top, showing net % difference between bull and bear volume.
A Total label at the bottom shows total accumulated volume across all bins.
🔵 HOW IT WORKS
The indicator captures all candles within the lookback period .
It calculates the price range and splits it into bins using ATR for adaptive resolution.
For each candle:
If price intersects a bin and close > open , volume is added to the positive profile .
If close < open , volume is added to the negative profile .
The result is two side-by-side histograms at each price level—one for buyers, one for sellers.
The bin with the highest value on each side is visually emphasized using POC highlight colors.
At the end, the script calculates:
Delta: Total % difference between bull and bear volumes.
Total: Sum of all volumes in the lookback window.
🔵 USAGE
Volume Imbalance Zones: Identify price levels where buyers or sellers were clearly dominant.
Fade or Follow Volume Clusters: Use POC+ or POC− levels for reaction trades or breakouts.
Delta Strength Filtering: Strong delta values (> ±20%) suggest momentum or exhaustion setups.
Volume-Based Anchoring: Use profile levels to mark hidden support/resistance and execution zones.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Delta Volume Profile offers a unique advantage in market reading by separating buyer and seller activity into two visual layers. This allows traders to not only spot where volume was high, but also who was more aggressive. Whether you’re analyzing trend continuations, reversals, or absorption levels, this indicator gives you the transparency needed to trade with confidence.
Lyapunov Market Instability (LMI)Lyapunov Market Instability (LMI)
What is Lyapunov Market Instability?
Lyapunov Market Instability (LMI) is a revolutionary indicator that brings chaos theory from theoretical physics into practical trading. By calculating Lyapunov exponents—a measure of how rapidly nearby trajectories diverge in phase space—LMI quantifies market sensitivity to initial conditions. This isn't another oscillator or trend indicator; it's a mathematical lens that reveals whether markets are in chaotic (trending) or stable (ranging) regimes.
Inspired by the meditative color field paintings of Mark Rothko, this indicator transforms complex chaos mathematics into an intuitive visual experience. The elegant simplicity of the visualization belies the sophisticated theory underneath—just as Rothko's seemingly simple color blocks contain profound depth.
Theoretical Foundation (Chaos Theory & Lyapunov Exponents)
In dynamical systems, the Lyapunov exponent (λ) measures the rate of separation of infinitesimally close trajectories:
λ > 0: System is chaotic—small changes lead to dramatically different outcomes (butterfly effect)
λ < 0: System is stable—trajectories converge, perturbations die out
λ ≈ 0: Edge of chaos—transition between regimes
Phase Space Reconstruction
Using Takens' embedding theorem , we reconstruct market dynamics in higher dimensions:
Time-delay embedding: Create vectors from price at different lags
Nearest neighbor search: Find historically similar market states
Trajectory evolution: Track how these similar states diverged over time
Divergence rate: Calculate average exponential separation
Market Application
Chaotic markets (λ > threshold): Strong trends emerge, momentum dominates, use breakout strategies
Stable markets (λ < threshold): Mean reversion dominates, fade extremes, range-bound strategies work
Transition zones: Market regime about to change, reduce position size, wait for confirmation
How LMI Works
1. Phase Space Construction
Each point in time is embedded as a vector using historical prices at specific delays (τ). This reveals the market's hidden attractor structure.
2. Lyapunov Calculation
For each current state, we:
- Find similar historical states within epsilon (ε) distance
- Track how these initially similar states evolved
- Measure exponential divergence rate
- Average across multiple trajectories for robustness
3. Signal Generation
Chaos signals: When λ crosses above threshold, market enters trending regime
Stability signals: When λ crosses below threshold, market enters ranging regime
Divergence detection: Price/Lyapunov divergences signal potential reversals

Ultimate Scalping Tool[BullByte]Overview
The Ultimate Scalping Tool is an open-source TradingView indicator built for scalpers and short-term traders released under the Mozilla Public License 2.0. It uses a custom Quantum Flux Candle (QFC) oscillator to combine multiple market forces into one visual signal. In plain terms, the script reads momentum, trend strength, volatility, and volume together and plots a special “candlestick” each bar (the QFC) that reflects the overall market bias. This unified view makes it easier to spot entries and exits: the tool labels signals as Strong Buy/Sell, Pullback (a brief retracement in a trend), Early Entry, or Exit Warning . It also provides color-coded alerts and a small dashboard of metrics. In practice, traders see green/red oscillator bars and symbols on the chart when conditions align, helping them scalp or trend-follow without reading multiple separate indicators.
Core Components
Quantum Flux Candle (QFC) Construction
The QFC is the heart of the indicator. Rather than using raw price, it creates a candlestick-like bar from the underlying oscillator values. Each QFC bar has an “open,” “high/low,” and “close” derived from calculated momentum and volatility inputs for that period . In effect, this turns the oscillator into intuitive candle patterns so traders can recognize momentum shifts visually. (For comparison, note that Heikin-Ashi candles “have a smoother look because take an average of the movement”. The QFC instead represents exact oscillator readings, so it reflects true momentum changes without hiding price action.) Colors of QFC bars change dynamically (e.g. green for bullish momentum, red for bearish) to highlight shifts. This is the first open-source QFC oscillator that dynamically weights four non-correlated indicators with moving thresholds, which makes it a unique indicator on its own.
Oscillator Normalization & Adaptive Weights
The script normalizes its oscillator to a fixed scale (for example, a 0–100 range much like the RSI) so that various inputs can be compared fairly. It then applies adaptive weighting: the relative influence of trend, momentum, volatility or volume signals is automatically adjusted based on current market conditions. For instance, in very volatile markets the script might weight volatility more heavily, or in a strong trend it might give extra weight to trend direction. Normalizing data and adjusting weights helps keep the QFC sensitive but stable (normalization ensures all inputs fit a common scale).
Trend/Momentum/Volume/Volatility Fusion
Unlike a typical single-factor oscillator, the QFC oscillator fuses four aspects at once. It may compute, for example, a trend indicator (such as an ADX or moving average slope), a momentum measure (like RSI or Rate-of-Change), a volume-based pressure (similar to MFI/OBV), and a volatility measure (like ATR) . These different values are combined into one composite oscillator. This “multi-dimensional” approach follows best practices of using non-correlated indicators (trend, momentum, volume, volatility) for confirmation. By encoding all these signals in one line, a high QFC reading means that trend, momentum, and volume are all aligned, whereas a neutral reading might mean mixed conditions. This gives traders a comprehensive picture of market strength.
Signal Classification
The script interprets the QFC oscillator to label trades. For example:
• Strong Buy/Sell : Triggered when the oscillator crosses a high-confidence threshold (e.g. breaks clearly above zero with strong slope), indicating a well-confirmed move. This is like seeing a big green/red QFC candle aligned with the trend.
• Pullbacks : Identified when the trend is up but momentum dips briefly. A Pullback Buy appears if the overall trend is bullish but the oscillator has a short retracement – a typical buying opportunity in an uptrend. (A pullback is “a brief decline or pause in a generally upward price trend”.)
• Early Buy/Sell : Marks an initial swing in the oscillator suggesting a possible new trend, before it is fully confirmed. It’s a hint of momentum building (an early-warning signal), not as strong as the confirmed “Strong” signal.
• Exit Warnings : Issued when momentum peaks or reverses. For instance, if the QFC bars reach a high and start turning red/green opposite, the indicator warns that the move may be ending. In other words, a Momentum Peak is the point of maximum strength after which weakness may follow.
These categories correspond to typical trading concepts: Pullback (temporary reversal in an uptrend), Early Buy (an initial bullish cross), Strong Buy (confirmed bullish momentum), and Momentum Peak (peak oscillator value suggesting exhaustion).
Filters (DI Reversal, Dynamic Thresholds, HTF EMA/ADX)
Extra filters help avoid bad trades. A DI Reversal filter uses the +DI/–DI lines (from the ADX system) to require that the trend direction confirms the signal . For example, it might ignore a buy signal if the +DI is still below –DI. Dynamic Thresholds adjust signal levels on-the-fly: rather than fixed “overbought” lines, they move with volatility so signals happen under appropriate market stress. An optional High-Timeframe EMA or ADX filter adds a check against a larger timeframe trend: for instance, only taking a trade if price is above the weekly EMA or if weekly ADX shows a strong trend. (Notably, the ADX is “a technical indicator used by traders to determine the strength of a price trend”, so requiring a high-timeframe ADX avoids trading against the bigger trend.)
Dashboard Metrics & Color Logic
The Dashboard in the Ultimate Scalping Tool (UST) serves as a centralized information hub, providing traders with real-time insights into market conditions, trend strength, momentum, volume pressure, and trade signals. It is highly customizable, allowing users to adjust its appearance and content based on their preferences.
1. Dashboard Layout & Customization
Short vs. Extended Mode : Users can toggle between a compact view (9 rows) and an extended view (13 rows) via the `Short Dashboard` input.
Text Size Options : The dashboard supports three text sizes— Tiny, Small, and Normal —adjustable via the `Dashboard Text Size` input.
Positioning : The dashboard is positioned in the top-right corner by default but can be moved if modified in the script.
2. Key Metrics Displayed
The dashboard presents critical trading metrics in a structured table format:
Trend (TF) : Indicates the current trend direction (Strong Bullish, Moderate Bullish, Sideways, Moderate Bearish, Strong Bearish) based on normalized trend strength (normTrend) .
Momentum (TF) : Displays momentum status (Strong Bullish/Bearish or Neutral) derived from the oscillator's position relative to dynamic thresholds.
Volume (CMF) : Shows buying/selling pressure levels (Very High Buying, High Selling, Neutral, etc.) based on the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) indicator.
Basic & Advanced Signals:
Basic Signal : Provides simple trade signals (Strong Buy, Strong Sell, Pullback Buy, Pullback Sell, No Trade).
Advanced Signal : Offers nuanced signals (Early Buy/Sell, Momentum Peak, Weakening Momentum, etc.) with color-coded alerts.
RSI : Displays the Relative Strength Index (RSI) value, colored based on overbought (>70), oversold (<30), or neutral conditions.
HTF Filter : Indicates the higher timeframe trend status (Bullish, Bearish, Neutral) when using the Leading HTF Filter.
VWAP : Shows the V olume-Weighted Average Price and whether the current price is above (bullish) or below (bearish) it.
ADX : Displays the Average Directional Index (ADX) value, with color highlighting whether it is rising (green) or falling (red).
Market Mode : Shows the selected market type (Crypto, Stocks, Options, Forex, Custom).
Regime : Indicates volatility conditions (High, Low, Moderate) based on the **ATR ratio**.
3. Filters Status Panel
A secondary panel displays the status of active filters, helping traders quickly assess which conditions are influencing signals:
- DI Reversal Filter: On/Off (confirms reversals before generating signals).

4. Visual Enhancements
Color-Coded Cells : Each metric is color-coded (green for bullish, red for bearish, gray for neutral) for quick interpretation.
Dynamic Background : The dashboard background adapts to market conditions (bullish/bearish/neutral) based on ADX and DI trends.
Customizable Reference Lines : Users can enable/disable fixed reference lines for the oscillator.
How It(QFC) Differs from Traditional Indicators
Quantum Flux Candle (QFC) Versus Heikin-Ashi
Heikin-Ashi candles smooth price by averaging (HA’s open/close use averages) so they show trend clearly but hide true price (the current HA bar’s close is not the real price). QFC candles are different: they are oscillator values, not price averages . A Heikin-Ashi chart “has a smoother look because it is essentially taking an average of the movement”, which can cause lag. The QFC instead shows the raw combined momentum each bar, allowing faster recognition of shifts. In short, HA is a smoothed price chart; QFC is a momentum-based chart.
Versus Standard Oscillators
Common oscillators like RSI or MACD use fixed formulas on price (or price+volume). For example, RSI “compares gains and losses and normalizes this value on a scale from 0 to 100”, reflecting pure price momentum. MFI is similar but adds volume. These indicators each show one dimension: momentum or volume. The Ultimate Scalping Tool’s QFC goes further by integrating trend strength and volatility too. In practice, this means a move that looks strong on RSI might be downplayed by low volume or weak trend in QFC. As one source notes, using multiple non-correlated indicators (trend, momentum, volume, volatility) provides a more complete market picture. The QFC’s multi-factor fusion is unique – it is effectively a multi-dimensional oscillator rather than a traditional single-input one.
Signal Style
Traditional oscillators often use crossovers (RSI crossing 50) or fixed zones (MACD above zero) for signals. The Ultimate Scalping Tool’s signals are custom-classified: it explicitly labels pullbacks, early entries, and strong moves. These terms go beyond a typical indicator’s generic “buy”/“sell.” In other words, it packages a strategy around the oscillator, which traders can backtest or observe without reading code.
Key Term Definitions
• Pullback : A short-term dip or consolidation in an uptrend. In this script, a Pullback Buy appears when price is generally rising but shows a brief retracement. (As defined by Investopedia, a pullback is “a brief decline or pause in a generally upward price trend”.)
• Early Buy/Sell : An initial or tentative entry signal. It means the oscillator first starts turning positive (or negative) before a full trend has developed. It’s an early indication that a trend might be starting.
• Strong Buy/Sell : A confident entry signal when multiple conditions align. This label is used when momentum is already strong and confirmed by trend/volume filters, offering a higher-probability trade.
• Momentum Peak : The point where bullish (or bearish) momentum reaches its maximum before weakening. When the oscillator value stops rising (or falling) and begins to reverse, the script flags it as a peak – signaling that the current move could be overextended.
What is the Flux MA?
The Flux MA (Moving Average) is an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) applied to a normalized oscillator, referred to as FM . Its purpose is to smooth out the fluctuations of the oscillator, providing a clearer picture of the underlying trend direction and strength. Think of it as a dynamic baseline that the oscillator moves above or below, helping you determine whether the market is trending bullish or bearish.
How it’s calculated (Flux MA):
1.The oscillator is normalized (scaled to a range, typically between 0 and 1, using a default scale factor of 100.0).
2.An EMA is applied to this normalized value (FM) over a user-defined period (default is 10 periods).
3.The result is rescaled back to the oscillator’s original range for plotting.
Why it matters : The Flux MA acts like a support or resistance level for the oscillator, making it easier to spot trend shifts.
Color of the Flux Candle
The Quantum Flux Candle visualizes the normalized oscillator (FM) as candlesticks, with colors that indicate specific market conditions based on the relationship between the FM and the Flux MA. Here’s what each color means:
• Green : The FM is above the Flux MA, signaling bullish momentum. This suggests the market is trending upward.
• Red : The FM is below the Flux MA, signaling bearish momentum. This suggests the market is trending downward.
• Yellow : Indicates strong buy conditions (e.g., a "Strong Buy" signal combined with a positive trend). This is a high-confidence signal to go long.
• Purple : Indicates strong sell conditions (e.g., a "Strong Sell" signal combined with a negative trend). This is a high-confidence signal to go short.
The candle mode shows the oscillator’s open, high, low, and close values for each period, similar to price candlesticks, but it’s the color that provides the quick visual cue for trading decisions.
How to Trade the Flux MA with Respect to the Candle
Trading with the Flux MA and Quantum Flux Candle involves using the MA as a trend indicator and the candle colors as entry and exit signals. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
1. Identify the Trend Direction
• Bullish Trend : The Flux Candle is green and positioned above the Flux MA. This indicates upward momentum.
• Bearish Trend : The Flux Candle is red and positioned below the Flux MA. This indicates downward momentum.
The Flux MA serves as the reference line—candles above it suggest buying pressure, while candles below it suggest selling pressure.
2. Interpret Candle Colors for Trade Signals
• Green Candle : General bullish momentum. Consider entering or holding a long position.
• Red Candle : General bearish momentum. Consider entering or holding a short position.
• Yellow Candle : A strong buy signal. This is an ideal time to enter a long trade.
• Purple Candle : A strong sell signal. This is an ideal time to enter a short trade.
3. Enter Trades Based on Crossovers and Colors
• Long Entry : Enter a buy position when the Flux Candle turns green and crosses above the Flux MA. If it turns yellow, this is an even stronger signal to go long.
• Short Entry : Enter a sell position when the Flux Candle turns red and crosses below the Flux MA. If it turns purple, this is an even stronger signal to go short.
4. Exit Trades
• Exit Long : Close your buy position when the Flux Candle turns red or crosses below the Flux MA, indicating the bullish trend may be reversing.
• Exit Short : Close your sell position when the Flux Candle turns green or crosses above the Flux MA, indicating the bearish trend may be reversing.
•You might also exit a long trade if the candle changes from yellow to green (weakening strong buy signal) or a short trade from purple to red (weakening strong sell signal).
5. Use Additional Confirmation
To avoid false signals, combine the Flux MA and candle signals with other indicators or dashboard metrics (e.g., trend strength, momentum, or volume pressure). For example:
•A yellow candle with a " Strong Bullish " trend and high buying volume is a robust long signal.
•A red candle with a " Moderate Bearish " trend and neutral momentum might need more confirmation before shorting.
Practical Example
Imagine you’re scalping a cryptocurrency:
• Long Trade : The Flux Candle turns yellow and is above the Flux MA, with the dashboard showing "Strong Buy" and high buying volume. You enter a long position. You exit when the candle turns red and dips below the Flux MA.
• Short Trade : The Flux Candle turns purple and crosses below the Flux MA, with a "Strong Sell" signal on the dashboard. You enter a short position. You exit when the candle turns green and crosses above the Flux MA.
Market Presets and Adaptation
This indicator is designed to work on any market with candlestick price data (stocks, crypto, forex, indices, etc.). To handle different behavior, it provides presets for major asset classes. Selecting a “Stocks,” “Crypto,” “Forex,” or “Options” preset automatically loads a set of parameter values optimized for that market . For example, a crypto preset might use a shorter lookback or higher sensitivity to account for crypto’s high volatility, while a stocks preset might use slightly longer smoothing since stocks often trend more slowly. In practice, this means the same core QFC logic applies across markets, but the thresholds and smoothing adjust so signals remain relevant for each asset type.

• Recommended Timeframes : Optimized for 1 minute to 15 minute intraday charts. Can also be used on higher timeframes for short term swings.
• Market Types : Select “Crypto,” “Stocks,” “Forex,” or “Options” to auto tune periods, thresholds and weights. Use “Custom” to manually adjust all inputs.
• Interpreting Signals : Always confirm a signal by checking that trend, volume, and VWAP agree on the dashboard. A green “Strong Buy” arrow with green trend, green volume, and price > VWAP is highest probability.
• Adjusting Sensitivity : To reduce false signals in fast markets, enable DI Reversal Confirmation and Dynamic Thresholds. For more frequent entries in trending environments, enable Early Entry Trigger.
• Risk Management : This tool does not plot stop loss or take profit levels. Users should define their own risk parameters based on support/resistance or volatility bands.
Background Shading
To give you an at-a-glance sense of market regime without reading numbers, the indicator automatically tints the chart background in three modes—neutral, bullish and bearish—with two levels of intensity (light vs. dark):
Neutral (Gray)
When ADX is below 20 the market is considered “no trend” or too weak to trade. The background fills with a light gray (high transparency) so you know to sit on your hands.
Bullish (Green)
As soon as ADX rises above 20 and +DI exceeds –DI, the background turns a semi-transparent green, signaling an emerging uptrend. When ADX climbs above 30 (strong trend), the green becomes more opaque—reminding you that trend-following signals (Strong Buy, Pullback) carry extra weight.
Bearish (Red)
Similarly, if –DI exceeds +DI with ADX >20, you get a light red tint for a developing downtrend, and a darker, more solid red once ADX surpasses 30.
By dynamically varying both hue (green vs. red vs. gray) and opacity (light vs. dark), the background instantly communicates trend strength and direction—so you always know whether to favor breakout-style entries (in a strong trend) or stay flat during choppy, low-ADX conditions.
The setup shown in the above chart snapshot is BTCUSD 15 min chart : Binance for reference.

Volume-Weighted Price MovementThe Volume-Weighted Price Movement (VWPM) indicator is an easy to read technical analysis tool that analyses how volume and price movement work together to drive market momentum.
How It Works
The VWPM indicator tracks two primary components:
Bullish Movement (green line): Measures the upward price movement weighted by volume. When price closes above the open, this component calculates how much buying pressure exists by multiplying the price change (close - open) by the volume of that period.
Bearish Movement (red line): Measures the downward price movement weighted by volume. When price closes below the open, this component calculates how much selling pressure exists by multiplying the price change (open - close) by the volume of that period.
Bull-Bear Difference (lime/orange line): Shows the net momentum by subtracting bearish movement from bullish movement, providing an at-a-glance view of which force is dominant.
The VWPM integrates volume data to identify whether price movements are backed by significant participation. A large price move with low volume carries less weight than the same move with high volume, providing a more accurate reflection of market strength.
A shorter lookback period makes the indicator more responsive to recent price action, while a longer period smooths out market noise for trend identification.
Interpretation
Bullish Signals
When the green line (bull movement) rises and stays above the red line
When the Bull-Bear Difference line crosses above zero and maintains positive momentum
Divergence between price making lower lows but the bull line making higher lows (hidden strength)
Bearish Signals
When the red line (bear movement) rises and stays above the green line
When the Bull-Bear Difference line crosses below zero and maintains negative momentum
Divergence between price making higher highs but the bull line making lower highs (hidden weakness)

Trend Finder Using Pull Back Method {Darkoexe}This indicator predicts trends using pull backs structure to predict the trend direction. It builds off the flag pattern concept but it uses precise precise measurements to determine trend direction.
A pull back occurs every time the price direction switches then closes either below or above the open of the previous candle depending on the type of pull back, bullish or bearish.
For an up trend to be a defined, when a bullish pull back occurs and does not go below the previous low, if the price then passes above the start of the pull back, an up trend signal will be printed. Only bullish pull backs will be displayed during an up trend.
For a down trend to be defined, when a bearish pull back occurs and does not go above the previous high, if the price then passes below the start of the pull back, a down trend signal will be printed. Only bearish pull backs will be displayed during a down trend.
If the conditions for an up trend or down trend are not met, no trend will be printed. Both bearish and bullish pull backs will be displayed during a no trend.
All the labels colors can be changed.

Dynamic Volatility EnvelopeDynamic Volatility Envelope: Indicator Overview
The Dynamic Volatility Envelope is an advanced, multi-faceted technical indicator designed to provide a comprehensive view of market trends, volatility, and potential future price movements. It centers around a customizable linear regression line, enveloped by dynamically adjusting volatility bands. The indicator offers rich visual feedback through gradient coloring, candle heatmaps, a background volatility pulse, and an on-chart trend strength meter.
Core Calculation Mechanism
Linear Regression Core :
-A central linear regression line is calculated based on a user-defined source (e.g., close, hl2) and lookback period.
-The regression line can be optionally smoothed using an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to reduce noise.
-The slope of this regression line is continuously calculated to determine the current trend direction and strength.
Volatility Channel :
-Dynamic bands are plotted above and below a central basis line. This basis is typically the calculated regression line but shifts to an EMA in Keltner mode.
-The width of these bands is determined by market volatility, using one of three user-selectable modes:
ATR Mode : Bandwidth is a multiple of the Average True Range (ATR).
Standard Deviation Mode : Bandwidth is a multiple of the Standard Deviation of the source data.
Keltner Mode (EMA-based ATR) : ATR-based bands are plotted around a central Keltner EMA line, offering a smoother channel.
The channel helps identify dynamic support and resistance levels and assess market volatility.
Future Projection :
The indicator can project the current regression line and its associated volatility bands into the future for a user-defined number of bars. This provides a visual guide for potential future price pathways based on current trend and volatility characteristics.
Candle Heatmap Coloring :
-Candle bodies and/or wicks/borders can be colored based on the price's position within the upper and lower volatility bands.
-Colors transition in a gradient from bearish (when price is near the lower band) through neutral (mid-channel) to bullish (when price is near the upper band), providing an intuitive visual cue of price action relative to the dynamic envelope.
Background Volatility Pulse :
The chart background color can be set to dynamically shift based on a ratio of short-term to long-term ATR. This creates a "pulse" effect, where the background subtly changes color to indicate rising or falling market volatility.
Trend Strength Meter :
An on-chart text label displays the current trend status (e.g., "Strong Bullish", "Neutral", "Bearish") based on the calculated slope of the regression line relative to user-defined thresholds for normal and strong trends.
Key Features & Components
-Dynamic Linear Regression Line: Core trend indicator with optional smoothing and slope-based gradient coloring.
-Multi-Mode Volatility Channel: Choose between ATR, Standard Deviation, or Keltner (EMA-based ATR) calculations for band width.
-Customizable Vertical Gradient Channel Fills: Visually distinct fills for upper and lower channel segments with user-defined top/bottom colors and gradient spread.
-Future Projection: Extrapolates regression line and volatility bands to forecast potential price paths.
-Price-Action Based Candle Heatmap: Intuitive candle coloring based on position within the volatility channel, with adjustable gradient midpoint.
-Volatility-Reactive Background Gradient: Subtle background color shifts to reflect changes in market volatility.
-On-Chart Trend Strength Meter: Clear textual display of current trend direction and strength.
-Extensive Visual Customization: Fine-tune colors, line styles, widths, and gradient aggressiveness for most visual elements.
-Comprehensive Tooltips: Detailed explanations for every input setting, ensuring ease of use and understanding.
Visual Elements Explained
Regression Line : The primary trend line. Its color dynamically changes (e.g., green for uptrend, red-pink for downtrend, neutral for flat) based on its slope, with smooth gradient transitions.
Volatility Channel :
Upper & Lower Bands : These lines form the outer boundaries of the envelope, acting as dynamic support and resistance levels.
Channel Fill : The area between the band center and the outer bands is filled with a vertical gradient. For example, the upper band fill might transition from a darker green near the center to a lighter green at the upper band.
Band Borders : The lines outlining the upper and lower bands, with customizable color and width.
Future Projection Lines & Fill :
Projected Regression Line : An extension of the current regression line into the future, typically styled differently (e.g., dashed).
Projected Channel Bands : Extensions of the upper and lower volatility bands.
Projected Area Fill : A semi-transparent fill between the projected upper and lower bands.
Candle Heatmap Coloring : When enabled, candles are colored based on their closing price's relative position within the channel. Bullish colors appear when price is in the upper part of the channel, bearish in the lower, and neutral in the middle. Users can choose to color the entire candle body or just the wicks and borders.
Background Volatility Pulse : The chart's background color subtly shifts (e.g., between a calm green and an agitated red-pink) to reflect the current volatility regime.
Trend Strength Meter : A text label (e.g., "TREND: STRONG BULLISH") positioned on the chart, providing an at-a-glance summary of the trend.
Configuration Options
Users can tailor the indicator extensively via the settings panel, with options logically grouped:
Core Analysis Engine : Adjust regression source data, lookback period, and EMA smoothing for the regression line.
Regression Line Visuals : Control visibility, line width, trend-based colors (uptrend, downtrend, flat), slope thresholds for trend definition, strong slope multiplier (for Trend Meter), and color gradient sharpness.
Volatility Channel Configuration : Select band calculation mode (ATR, StdDev, Keltner), set relevant periods and multipliers. Customize colors for vertical gradient fills (upper/lower, top/bottom), border line colors, widths, and the gradient spread factor for fills.
Future Projection Configuration : Toggle visibility, set projection length (number of bars), line style, and colors for projected regression and band areas.
Appearance & Candle Theme : Set default bull/bear candle colors, enable/disable candle heatmap, choose if body color matches heatmap, and configure heatmap gradient target colors (bull, neutral, bear) and the gradient's midpoint.
Background Volatility Pulse : Enable/disable the background effect and configure short/long ATR periods for the volatility calculation.
Trend Strength Meter : Enable/disable the meter, and choose its on-chart position and text size.
Interpretation Notes
-The Regression Line is the primary indicator of trend direction. Its slope and color provide immediate insight.
-The Volatility Bands serve as dynamic support and resistance zones. Price approaching or touching these bands may indicate potential turning points or breakouts. The width of the channel itself reflects market volatility – widening suggests increasing volatility, while narrowing suggests consolidation.
Future Projections are not predictions but rather an extension of current conditions. They can help visualize potential areas where price might interact with projected support/resistance if the current trend and volatility persist.
Candle Heatmap Coloring offers a quick visual assessment of where price is trading within the dynamic envelope, highlighting strength or weakness relative to the channel.
The Background Volatility Pulse gives a contextual feel for overall market agitation or calmness.
This indicator is designed to be a comprehensive analytical tool. Its signals and visualizations are best used in conjunction with other technical analysis techniques, price action study, and robust risk management practices. It is not intended as a standalone trading system.

Stop Cascade Detector Stop Cascade Detector (DAFE)
Unlock the Hidden Triggers of Market Momentum!
The Stop Cascade Detector (Bull & Bear, Info Bubble) is a next-generation tool designed for traders who want to see what the crowd can’t: the precise moments when clusters of stop orders are being triggered, unleashing explosive moves in either direction. The reason for this is traders taking there position too early. We on the other hand will take our positions once the less informed traders have been liquidated.
What Makes This Indicator Unique?
Not Just Another Volatility Tool:
This script doesn’t just measure volatility or volume. It detects the chain reactions that occur when price and volume spikes combine to trigger stop-loss clusters—events that often precede the most powerful surges and reversals in any market.
Directional Intelligence:
Unlike generic “spike” detectors, this tool distinguishes between bullish stop cascades (green, above the bar) and bearish stop cascades (red, below the bar), giving you instant clarity on which side of the market is being liquidated.
Visual Precision:
Each event is marked with a color-coded info bubble and a triangle, clearly separated from the price bars for maximum readability. No more guessing where the action is—see it, trade it, and stay ahead.
Universal Application:
Works on any asset, any timeframe, and in any market—futures, stocks, crypto, forex. If there are stops, this indicator will find the cascade.
What makes it work?
Momentum + Volume Spike:
The detector identifies bars where both price momentum and volume are simultaneously extreme (using Z-scores). This combination is a classic signature of stop runs and forced liquidations.
Bull & Bear Detection:
Bull Stop Cascade : Price plunges downward with a volume spike—likely longs getting stopped out.
Bear Stop Cascade: Price surges upward with a volume spike—likely shorts getting stopped out.
Info Bubbles:
Each event is labeled with the exact Z-scores for momentum and volume, so you can gauge the intensity of the cascade at a glance.
What will it do for you?
Front-Run the Crowd:
Most traders react after the move. This tool helps you spot the cause of the move—giving you a tactical edge to fade exhaustion, ride momentum, or avoid getting trapped.
Perfect for Scalpers, Day Traders, and Swing Traders:
Whether you’re looking for high-probability reversals or want to ride the wave, knowing when stops are being triggered is a game-changer.
No More Blind Spots:
Stop cascades are the hidden fuel behind many of the market’s biggest moves. Now you can see them in real time.
How to Use
Red Bubble Above Bar: Bear stop cascade detected—watch for possible trend acceleration or reversal.
Green Bubble Below Bar: Bull stop cascade detected—watch for possible trend acceleration or reversal.
Combine with Your Strategy : Use as a confirmation tool, a reversal signal, or a filter for high-volatility environments. Level up your trading. See the market’s hidden triggers.

Support BandsSupport Bands – Discount Zones for Bitcoin
⚡Overview:
-The Support Bands indicator identifies one of the most tested and respected support zones for Bitcoin using moving averages from higher timeframes.
-These zones are visualized through colored bands (blue, white, and violet), simplifying the decision making process especially for less experienced traders who seek high-probability areas to accumulate Bitcoin during retracements.
-Band levels are based on manual backtesting and real-world price behavior throughout Bitcoin’s history.
-Each zone reflects a different degree of support strength, from temporary pullback zones to historical bottoms.
⚡️ Key Characteristics:
-Highlights discount zones where Bitcoin has historically shown strong reactions.
-Uses 3 different levels of supports based on EMA/SMA combinations.
-Offers a clean, non-intrusive overlay that reduces chart clutter.
⚡ How to Use:
-Open your chart on the 1W timeframe and select the BTC Bitstamp or BLX symbol, as they provide the most complete historical data, ensuring optimal performance of the indicator.
-Use the bands as reference zones for support and potential pullbacks.
- Level 3 (violet band) historically marks the bottom of Bitcoin bear markets and is ideal for long-term entries during deep corrections.
- Level 2 (white band) often signals macro reaccumulation zones but usually requires 1–3 months of consolidation before a breakout. If the price closes below and then retests this level as resistance for 1–2 weekly candles, it often marks the start of a macro downtrend.
-Level 1 (blue band) acts as short-term support during strong bullish moves, typically after a successful rebound from Level 2.
⚡ What Makes It Unique:
- This script merges moving averages per level into three simplified bands for clearer analysis.
-Reduces chart noise by avoiding multiple overlapping lines, helping you make faster and cleaner decisions.
- Built from manual market study based on recurring Bitcoin behavior, not just random code.
-Historically backtested:
-Level 3 (violet band) until today has always marked the bitcoin bearmarket bottom.
- Level 2 (white band) is the strongest support during bull markets; losing it often signals a macro trend reversal.
- Level 1 is frequently retested during impulsive rallies and can act as short-term support or resistance.
⚡ Disclaimer:
-This script is a visual tool to assist with market analysis.
-It does not generate buy or sell signals, nor does it predict future movements.
-Historical performance is not indicative of future results.
-Always use independent judgment and proper risk management.
⚡ Why Use Support Bands:
-Ideal for traders who want clarity without dozens of lines on their charts.
- Helps identify logical zones for entry or reaccumulation.
- Based on actual market behavior rather than hypothetical setups.
-If the blue band (Level 1) doesn't hold as support, the price often moves to the white band (Level 2), and if that fails too, the violet band (Level 3) is typically the last strong support. By dividing your capital into three planned entries, one at each level,you can manage risk more effectively compared to entering blindly without this structure.
ADX and DI - Trader FelipeADX and DI - Trader Felipe
This indicator combines the Average Directional Index (ADX) and the Directional Indicators (DI+ and DI-) to help traders assess market trends and their strength. It is designed to provide a clear view of whether the market is in a trending phase (either bullish or bearish) and helps identify potential entry and exit points.
What is ADX and DI?
DI+ (Green Line):
DI+ measures the strength of upward (bullish) price movements. When DI+ is above DI-, it signals that the market is experiencing upward momentum.
DI- (Red Line):
DI- measures the strength of downward (bearish) price movements. When DI- is above DI+, it suggests that the market is in a bearish phase, with downward momentum.
ADX (Blue Line):
ADX quantifies the strength of the trend, irrespective of whether it is bullish or bearish. The higher the ADX, the stronger the trend:
ADX > 20: Indicates a trending market (either up or down).
ADX < 20: Indicates a weak or sideways market with no clear trend.
Threshold Line (Gray Line):
This horizontal line, typically set at 20, represents the threshold for identifying whether the market is trending or not. If ADX is above 20, the market is considered to be in a trend. If ADX is below 20, it suggests that the market is not trending and is likely in a consolidation phase.
Summary of How to Use the Indicator:
Trend Confirmation: Use ADX > 20 to confirm a trending market. If ADX is below 20, avoid trading.
Long Entry: Enter a long position when DI+ > DI- and ADX > 20.
Short Entry: Enter a short position when DI- > DI+ and ADX > 20.
Avoid Sideways Markets: Do not trade when ADX is below 20. Look for other strategies for consolidation phases.
Exit Strategy: Exit the trade if ADX starts to decline or if the DI lines cross in the opposite direction.
Combine with Other Indicators: Use additional indicators like RSI, moving averages, or support/resistance to filter and confirm signals.

Time-Based Fair Value Gaps (FVG) with Inversions (iFVG)Overview
The Time-Based Fair Value Gaps (FVG) with Inversions (iFVG) (ICT/SMT) indicator is a specialized tool designed for traders using Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodologies. Inspired by LuxAlgo's Fair Value Gap indicator, this script introduces significant enhancements by integrating ICT principles, focusing on precise time-based FVG detection, inversion tracking, and retest signals tailored for institutional trading strategies. Unlike LuxAlgo’s general FVG approach, this indicator filters FVGs within customizable 10-minute windows aligned with ICT’s macro timeframes and incorporates ICT-specific concepts like mitigation, liquidity grabs, and session-based gap prioritization.
This tool is optimized for 1–5 minute charts, though probably best for 1 minute charts, identifying bullish and bearish FVGs, tracking their mitigation into inverted FVGs (iFVGs) as key support/resistance zones, and generating retest signals with customizable “Close” or “Wick” confirmation. Features like ATR-based filtering, optional FVG labels, mitigation removal, and session-specific FVG detection (e.g., first FVG in AM/PM sessions) make it a powerful tool for ICT traders.
Originality and Improvements
While inspired by LuxAlgo’s FVG indicator (credit to LuxAlgo for their foundational work), this script significantly extends the original concept by:
1. Time-Based FVG Detection: Unlike LuxAlgo’s continuous FVG identification, this script filters FVGs within user-defined 10-minute windows each hour (:00–:10, :10–:20, etc.), aligning with ICT’s emphasis on specific periods of institutional activity, such as hourly opens/closes or kill zones (e.g., New York 7:00–11:00 AM EST). This ensures FVGs are relevant to high-probability ICT setups.
2. Session-Specific First FVG Option: A unique feature allows traders to display only the first FVG in ICT-defined AM (9:30–10:00 AM EST) or PM (1:30–2:00 PM EST) sessions, reflecting ICT’s focus on initial market imbalances during key liquidity events.
3. ICT-Driven Mitigation and Inversion Logic: The script tracks FVG mitigation (when price closes through a gap) and converts mitigated FVGs into iFVGs, which serve as ICT-style support/resistance zones. This aligns with ICT’s view that mitigated gaps become critical reversal points, unlike LuxAlgo’s simpler gap display.
4. Customizable Retest Signals: Retest signals for iFVGs are configurable for “Close” (conservative, requiring candle body confirmation) or “Wick” (faster, using highs/lows), catering to ICT traders’ need for precise entry timing during liquidity grabs or Judas swings.
5. ATR Filtering and Mitigation Removal: An optional ATR filter ensures only significant FVGs are displayed, reducing noise, while mitigation removal declutters the chart by removing filled gaps, aligning with ICT’s principle that mitigated gaps lose relevance unless inverted.
6. Timezone and Timeframe Safeguards: A timezone offset setting aligns FVG detection with EST for ICT’s New York-centric strategies, and a timeframe warning alerts users to avoid ≥1-hour charts, ensuring accuracy in time-based filtering.
These enhancements make the script a distinct tool that builds on LuxAlgo’s foundation while offering ICT traders a tailored, high-precision solution.
How It Works
FVG Detection
FVGs are identified when a candle’s low is higher than the high of two candles prior (bullish FVG) or a candle’s high is lower than the low of two candles prior (bearish FVG). Detection is restricted to:
• User-selected 10-minute windows (e.g., :00–:10, :50–:60) to capture ICT-relevant periods like hourly transitions.
• AM/PM session first FVGs (if enabled), focusing on 9:30–10:00 AM or 1:30–2:00 PM EST for key market opens.
An optional ATR filter (default: 0.25× ATR) ensures only gaps larger than the threshold are displayed, prioritizing significant imbalances.
Mitigation and Inversion
When price closes through an FVG (e.g., below a bullish FVG’s bottom), the FVG is mitigated and becomes an iFVG, plotted as a support/resistance zone. iFVGs are critical in ICT for identifying reversal points where institutional orders accumulate.
Retest Signals
The script generates signals when price retests an iFVG:
• Close: Triggers when the candle body confirms the retest (conservative, lower noise).
• Wick: Triggers when the candle’s high/low touches the iFVG (faster, higher sensitivity). Signals are visualized with triangular markers (▲ for bullish, ▼ for bearish) and can trigger alerts.

• FVGs: Displayed as colored boxes (green for bullish, red for bearish) with optional “Bull FVG”/“Bear FVG” labels.
• iFVGs: Shown as extended boxes with dashed midlines, limited to the user-defined number of recent zones (default: 5).
• Mitigation Removal: Mitigated FVGs/iFVGs are removed (if enabled) to keep the chart clean.
How to Use
Recommended Settings
• Timeframe: Use 1–5 minute charts for precision, avoiding ≥1-hour timeframes (a warning label appears if misconfigured).
• Time Windows: Enable :00–:10 and :50–:60 for hourly open/close FVGs, or use the “Show only 1st presented FVG” option for AM/PM session focus.
• ATR Filter: Keep enabled (multiplier 0.25–0.5) for significant gaps; disable on 1-minute charts for more FVGs during volatility.
• Signal Preference: Use “Close” for conservative entries, “Wick” for aggressive setups.
• Timezone Offset: Set to -5 for EST (or -4 for EDT) to align with ICT’s New York session.
Trading Strategy
1. Macro Timeframes: Focus on New York (7:00–11:00 AM EST) or London (2:00–5:00 AM EST) kill zones for high institutional activity.
2. FVG Entries: Trade bullish FVGs as support in uptrends or bearish FVGs as resistance in downtrends, especially in :00–:10 or :50–:60 windows.
3. iFVG Retests: Enter on retest signals (▲/▼) during liquidity grabs or Judas swings, using “Close” for confirmation or “Wick” for speed.
4. Session FVGs: Use the “Show only 1st presented FVG” option to target the first gap in AM/PM sessions, often tied to ICT’s market maker algorithms.
5. Risk Management: Combine with ICT concepts like order blocks or breaker blocks for confluence, and set stops beyond FVG/iFVG boundaries.
Alerts
Set alerts for:
• “Bullish FVG Detected”/“Bearish FVG Detected”: New FVGs in selected windows.
• “Bullish Signal”/“Bearish Signal”: iFVG retest confirmations.
Settings Description
• Show Last (1–100, default: 5): Number of recent iFVGs to display. Lower values reduce clutter.
• Show only 1st presented FVG : Limits FVGs to the first in 9:30–10:00 AM or 1:30–2:00 PM EST sessions (overrides time window checkboxes).
• Time Window Checkboxes: Enable/disable FVG detection in 10-minute windows (:00–:10, :10–:20, etc.). All enabled by default.
• Signal Preference: “Close” (default) or “Wick” for iFVG retest signals.
• Use ATR Filter: Enables ATR-based size filtering (default: true).
• ATR Multiplier (0–∞, default: 0.25): Sets FVG size threshold (higher values = larger gaps).
• Remove Mitigated FVGs: Removes filled FVGs/iFVGs (default: true).
• Show FVG Labels: Displays “Bull FVG”/“Bear FVG” labels (default: true).
• Timezone Offset (-12 to 12, default: -5): Aligns time windows with EST.
• Colors: Customize bullish (green), bearish (red), and midline (gray) colors.

DETAILED SIGNAL LOGIC
Trend Determination:
The script determines the trend direction by comparing leading_line1 and leading_line2.
If leading_line1 is above leading_line2, the trend is considered bullish (isBullish). Otherwise, it's bearish (isBearish).
Signal Conditions:
Long Entry (LE): Triggered when the trend turns bullish from bearish.
Short Entry (SE): Triggered when the trend turns bearish from bullish.
Exit Long (XL): Triggered when the price crosses below leading_line1 during an uptrend.
Re-enter Long (RL): Triggered when the price crosses above leading_line1 during an uptrend.
Exit Short (XS): Triggered when the price crosses above leading_line1 during a downtrend.
Re-enter Short (RS): Triggered when the price crosses below leading_line1 during a downtrend.
Label Styling:
Labels are color-coded for quick identification:
Green for long entries and re-entries.
Red for short entries and exits.
Blue for exiting long positions.
Orange for re-entering short positions.
Tooltips provide additional context for each label.
Alert Configuration:
Alerts are generated for each signal condition, ensuring traders are notified promptly.
Users can set up these alerts within TradingView by creating new alerts and selecting the appropriate conditions.
LIMITATIONS
The indicator may lag behind price action due to its use of moving averages and channel calculations 🕒.
False signals can occur in choppy or sideways markets 🌪️.
Users should always confirm signals with other forms of analysis.
NOTES
Ensure that you have sufficient historical data available for accurate calculations.
Test the indicator thoroughly on demo accounts before applying it to live trading 🔍.
Customize the appearance and parameters as needed to fit your trading strategy.
For better risk management, consider integrating stop-loss and take-profit levels into your trading plan.
To optimize performance, manage old labels by deleting them after a certain period to avoid clutter on the chart.
RSI with HMA & Momentum ZonesRSI with HMA & Momentum Zones — Indicator Description
This indicator combines Relative Strength Index (RSI) analysis with Hull Moving Averages (HMA) and Momentum Zone detection to provide a multi-layered view of market strength, trend shifts, and divergence signals.
It includes:
Main Features:
RSI Core:
Standard RSI calculated from a customizable source (close, open, etc.) with adjustable length.
A dynamic RSI Signal Line is plotted with selectable smoothing types (SMA, EMA, SMMA, WMA, VWMA) to enhance trend-following signals.
RSI crossovers of its signal line change color (green for bullish crossovers, red for bearish crossunders).
Hull Moving Averages (HMA):
Two HMA lines are plotted based on the RSI:
Short HMA (fast) and Long HMA (slow).
Color shifts indicate crossovers between RSI and Short HMA (short-term trend change) and Short HMA vs Long HMA (longer-term trend shifts).
Momentum Zones:
When the gap between the RSI and the Long HMA exceeds a user-defined threshold:
A green background highlights strong bullish momentum.
A red background highlights strong bearish momentum.
Helps visualize when momentum becomes extended.
Divergence Detection (Optional):
Regular and hidden bullish and bearish divergences are automatically detected between price and RSI.
Divergences are plotted on the RSI pane with labels ("Bull", "H Bull", "Bear", "H Bear").
Adjustable lookback settings for fine-tuning sensitivity.
Alerts are available for all divergence events.
Visual Enhancements:
A shaded cloud fills between RSI and its signal line, green for bullish bias and red for bearish bias.
Horizontal bands at 70, 50, and 30 levels to mark traditional RSI zones (overbought, neutral, oversold).
Customization Options:
All major components — RSI settings, Signal Line type, HMA lengths, Momentum Zone threshold, and Divergence controls — are fully adjustable.
Triad Macro Gauge__________________________________________________________________________________
Introduction
__________________________________________________________________________________
The Triad Macro Gauge (TMG) is designed to provide traders with a comprehensive view of the macroeconomic environment impacting financial markets. By synthesizing three critical market signals— VIX (volatility) , Credit Spreads (credit risk) , and the Stocks/Bonds Ratio (SPY/TLT) —this indicator offers a probabilistic assessment of market sentiment, helping traders identify bullish or bearish macro conditions.
Holistic Macro Analysis: Combines three distinct macroeconomic indicators for multi-dimensional insights.
Customization & Flexibility: Adjust weights, thresholds, lookback periods, and visualization styles.
Visual Clarity: Dynamic table, color-coded plots, and anomaly markers for quick interpretation.
Fully Consistent Scores: Identical values across all timeframes (4H, daily, weekly).
Actionable Signals: Clear bull/bear thresholds and volatility spike detection.
Optimized for timeframes ranging from 4 hour to 1 week , the TMG equips swing traders and long-term investors with a robust tool to navigate macroeconomic trends.
__________________________________________________________________________________
Key Indicators
__________________________________________________________________________________
VIX (CBOE:VIX): Measures market volatility (negatively weighted for bearish signals).
Credit Spreads (FRED:BAMLH0A0HYM2EY): Tracks high-yield bond spreads (negatively weighted).
Stocks/Bonds Ratio (SPY/TLT): Evaluates equity sentiment relative to treasuries (positively weighted).
__________________________________________________________________________________
Originality and Purpose
__________________________________________________________________________________
The TMG stands out by combining VIX, Credit Spreads, and SPY/TLT into a single, cohesive indicator. Its unique strength lies in its fully consistent scores across all timeframes, a critical feature for multi-timeframe analysis.
Purpose: To empower traders with a clear, actionable tool to:
Assess macro conditions
Spot market extremes
Anticipate reversals
__________________________________________________________________________________
How It Works
__________________________________________________________________________________
VIX Z-Score: Measures volatility deviations (inverted for bearish signals).
Credit Z-Score: Tracks credit spread deviations (inverted for bearish signals).
Ratio Z-Score: Assesses SPY/TLT strength (positively weighted for bullish signals).
TMG Score: Weighted composite of z-scores (bullish > +0.30, bearish < -0.30).
Anomaly Detection: Identifies extreme volatility spikes (z-score > 3.0).
All calculations are performed using daily data, ensuring that scores remain consistent across all chart timeframes.
__________________________________________________________________________________
Visualization & Interpretation
__________________________________________________________________________________
The script visualizes data through:
A dynamic table displaying TMG Score , VIX Z, Credit Z, Ratio Z, and Anomaly status, with color gradients (green for positive, red for negative, gray for neutral/N/A).
A plotted TMG Score in Area, Histogram, or Line mode , with adaptive opacity for clarity.
Bull/Bear thresholds as horizontal lines (+0.30/-0.30) to signal market conditions.
Anomaly markers (orange circles) for volatility spikes.
Crossover signals (triangles) for bull/bear threshold crossings.
The table provides an immediate snapshot of macro conditions, while the plot offers a visual trend analysis. All values are consistent across timeframes, simplifying multi-timeframe analysis.
