Breaks and Retests with Volatility Stop [HG]The "Breaks and Retests with Volatility Stop " indicator is a powerful tool designed to assist traders in identifying key support and resistance levels, breakouts, retests, and potential trend reversals. This indicator combines two essential components: support and resistance detection, and a Volatility Stop indicator for improved risk management. Below are the key features of this indicator:
**Support and Resistance Detection:**
- **Lookback Range:** Users can customize the lookback range, determining how many bars are considered when identifying support and resistance levels. This allows for flexibility in capturing short-term or longer-term levels.
- **Bars Since Breakout:** The indicator helps traders spot retests by allowing them to specify the number of bars that should occur since a breakout before considering it a potential retest.
- **Retest Detection Limiter:** Traders can set a limit on how many bars should be actively checked during a potential retest event. This feature prevents retest alerts from occurring too late, ensuring more accurate results.
- **Breakouts and Retests:** Users can choose to display or hide breakout and retest events separately, tailoring the indicator to their specific trading strategy.
- **Repainting Options:** The indicator offers three repainting options: "On," "Off: Candle Confirmation," and "Off: High & Low." This provides flexibility in choosing the repainting behavior that suits your trading style.
**Styling Options:**
- **Outline and Extend:** Traders can customize the appearance of support and resistance boxes by selecting outline styles and extension preferences.
- **Label Types and Sizes:** The indicator offers two label types, "Full" and "Simple," allowing traders to choose the level of detail displayed on the chart. Additionally, users can adjust the label size for better visibility.
- **Customizable Colors:** Support and resistance levels can be color-coded to match your preferred charting style, enhancing visibility and clarity.
- **Override Text Color:** If desired, traders can override the text color for labels, providing further customization of the indicator's appearance.
**Alerts and Notifications:**
- The indicator generates various alerts and notifications to keep traders informed about critical market events, including:
- New Support and Resistance Levels
- Support and Resistance Breakouts
- Support and Resistance Retests
- Potential Support and Resistance Retests
**Volatility Stop Indicator:**
- The "Breaks and Retests with Volatility Stop " indicator also includes a Volatility Stop component, which helps traders manage risk by indicating potential stop-loss levels based on market volatility. The Volatility Stop is color-coded to reflect the current trend direction, making it easy to identify potential trend reversals.
In summary, this TradingView indicator is a comprehensive tool designed to enhance your technical analysis and trading decisions. It provides support and resistance levels, breakout and retest alerts, and incorporates a Volatility Stop indicator for risk management, making it a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit.

Band-Zigzag Based Trend FollowerWe defined new method to derive zigzag last month - which is called Channel-Based-Zigzag . This script is an example of one of the use case of this method.
🎲 Trend Following
Defining a trend following method is simple. Basic rule of trend following is Buy High and Sell Low (Yes, you heard it right). To explain further - methodology involve finding an established trend which is flying high and join the trend with proper risk and optimal stop. Once you get into the trade, you will not exit unless there is change in the trend. Or in other words, the parameters which you used to define trend has reversed and the trend is not valid anymore.
Few examples are:
🎯 Using bands
When price breaks out of upper bands (example, Bollinger Band, Keltener Channel, or Donchian Channel), with a pre determined length and multiplier, we can consider the trend to be bullish and similarly when price breaks down the lower band, we can consider the trend to be bearish.
Here are few examples where I have used bands for identifying trend
Band-Based-Supertrend
Donchian-Channel-Trend-Filter
🎯 Using Pivots
Simple logic using zigzag or pivot points is that when price starts making higher highs and higher lows, we can consider this as uptrend. And when price starts making lower highs and lower lows, we can consider this as downtrend. There are few supertrend implementations I have published in the past based on zigzags and pivot points.
Adoptive-Supertrend-Pivots
Zigzag-Supertrend
Drawbacks of both of these methods is that there will be too many fluctuations in both cases unless we increase the reference length. And if we increase the reference length, we will have higher drawdown.
🎲 Band Based Zigzag Method
Band Based Zigzag will help overcome these issues by combining both the methods.
Here we use bands to define our pivot high and pivot low - this makes sure that we are identifying trend only on breakouts as pivots are only formed on breakouts.
Our method also includes pivot ratio to cross over 1.0 to be able to consider it as trend. This means, we are waiting for price also to make new high high or lower low before making the decision on trend. But, this helps us ignore smaller pivot movements due to the usage of bands.
I have also implemented few tricks such as sticky bands (Bands will not contract unless there is breakout) and Adaptive Bands (Band will not expand unless price is moving in the direction of band). This makes the trend following method very robust.
To avoid fakeouts, we also use percentB of high/low in comparison with price retracement to define breakout.
🎲 The indicator
The output of indicator is simple and intuitive to understand.
🎯 Trend Criteria
Uptrend when last confirmed pivot is pivot high and has higher retracement ratio than PercentB of High. Else, considered as downtrend.
Downtrend when last confirmed pivot is pivot low and has higher retracement ratio than PercentB of High. Else, considered as uptrend.
🎯 Settings
Settings allow you to select the band type and parameters used for calculating zigzag and then trend. Also has few options to hide the display.
Point and Figure (PnF) ChartThis is live and non-repainting Point and Figure Charting tool. The tool has it’s own P&F engine and not using integrated function of Trading View.
Point and Figure method is over 150 years old. It consist of columns that represent filtered price movements. Time is not a factor on P&F chart but as you can see with this script P&F chart created on time chart.
P&F chart provide several advantages, some of them are filtering insignificant price movements and noise, focusing on important price movements and making support/resistance levels much easier to identify.
If you are new to Point & Figure Chart then you better get some information about it before using this tool. There are very good web sites and books. Please PM me if you need help about resources.
Options in the Script
Box size is one of the most important part of Point and Figure Charting. Chart price movement sensitivity is determined by the Point and Figure scale. Large box sizes see little movement across a specific price region, small box sizes see greater price movement on P&F chart. There are four different box scaling with this tool: Traditional, Percentage, Dynamic (ATR), or User-Defined
4 different methods for Box size can be used in this tool.
User Defined: The box size is set by user. A larger box size will result in more filtered price movements and fewer reversals. A smaller box size will result in less filtered price movements and more reversals.
ATR: Box size is dynamically calculated by using ATR, default period is 20.
Percentage: uses box sizes that are a fixed percentage of the stock's price. If percentage is 1 and stock’s price is $100 then box size will be $1
Traditional: uses a predefined table of price ranges to determine what the box size should be.
Price Range Box Size
Under 0.25 0.0625
0.25 to 1.00 0.125
1.00 to 5.00 0.25
5.00 to 20.00 0.50
20.00 to 100 1.0
100 to 200 2.0
200 to 500 4.0
500 to 1000 5.0
1000 to 25000 50.0
25000 and up 500.0
Default value is “ATR”, you may use one of these scaling method that suits your trading strategy.
If ATR or Percentage is chosen then there is rounding algorithm according to mintick value of the security. For example if mintick value is 0.001 and box size (ATR/Percentage) is 0.00124 then box size becomes 0.001.
And also while using dynamic box size (ATR or Percentage), box size changes only when closing price changed.
Reversal : It is the number of boxes required to change from a column of Xs to a column of Os or from a column of Os to a column of Xs. Default value is 3 (most used). For example if you choose reversal = 2 then you get the chart similar to Renko chart.
Source: Closing price or High-Low prices can be chosen as data source for P&F charting.
Chart Style: There are 3 options for chart style: “Candle”, “Area” or “Don’t show”.
As Area:
As Candle:
X/O Column Style: it can show all columns from opening price or only last Xs/Os.
Color Theme: different themes exist => Green/Red, Yellow/Blue, White/Yellow, Orange/Blue, Lime/Red, Blue/Red
Show Breakouts is the option to show Breakouts
This tool detects & shows following Breakouts:
Triple Top/Bottom,
Triple Top Ascending,
Triple Bottom Descending,
Simple Buy/Sell (Double Top/Bottom),
Simple Buy With Rising Bottom,
Simple Sell With Declining Top
Catapult bullish/bearish
Show Horizontal Count Targets: Finds the congestion or consolidation pattern and if there is breakout then it calculates the Target by using Horizontal Count method (based on the width of congestion pattern). It shows how many column exist on congestion area. There is no guarantee that prices will reach the target.
Show Vertical Count Targets: When Triple Top/Bottom Breakouts occured the script calculates the target by using Vertical Count Method (based on the length of the column). There is no guarantee that prices will reach the target.
For both methods there is auto target cancellation if price goes below congestion bottom or above congestion top.
trend is calculated by EMA of closing price of the P&F
Whipsaw protection:
Last options are “Show info panel” and Labeling Offset. Script shows current box size, reversal, and recommanded minimum and maximum box size. And also it shows the price level to reverse the column (Xs <-> Os) and the price level to add at least 1 more box to column. This is the option to put these labels 10, 20, 30, 50 or 100 bars away from the last bar. Labeling content and color change according to X/O column.

Volume and the SMA plus one standard deviationThe 'Volume and the SMA plus one standard deviation' indicator is designed to help traders analyze market activity by visualizing volume dynamics. It plots the current volume alongside two key metrics:
1) The Simple Moving Average (SMA) of volume
2) The SMA plus one standard deviation, enabling traders to identify significant volume spikes that may signal potential price movements.
How It Works:
Volume (blue column): Displays the trading volume for each bar, highlighting periods of high or low market activity.
Basis Volume (orange Line): Represents the SMA of volume over a user-defined period (default: 20 bars). Volumes above this line indicate increased market activity.
SD2 Volume (dark blue Line): Shows the SMA plus one standard deviation of volume. Volumes exceeding this threshold suggest extreme activity, often associated with breakouts, reversals, or significant market events.
Trading Applications:
Confirming Breakouts: A volume spike above the SD2 Volume during a price breakout increases the likelihood of a sustained move. Use this to confirm entries in trend-following strategies.
Identifying Trend Strength: Volumes consistently above the Basis Volume signal strong market participation, supporting trend continuation trades.
Avoiding False Signals: Low volumes below the Basis Volume suggest consolidation or weak movements, helping traders avoid false breakouts or reversals.
Event Detection: Extreme volumes above SD2 Volume often coincide with news events or large player activity, prompting traders to prepare for volatility.
Settings:
Volume SMA Length (default: 20): Adjust the period for calculating the SMA and standard deviation. Shorter periods (e.g., 5–10) increase sensitivity for intraday trading, while longer periods (e.g., 20–50) suit higher timeframes.
Назначение: Индикатор 'Volume and the SMA plus one standard deviation' помогает трейдерам анализировать рыночную активность, визуализируя динамику объемов. Он отображает текущий объем торгов, скользящую среднюю (SMA) объема и SMA плюс одно стандартное отклонение. Позволяя выявлять значительные всплески объема, которые могут сигнализировать о потенциальных движениях цены.
Как работает:
Объем: Показывает объем торгов для каждого бара, выделяя периоды высокой или низкой активности рынка.
Basis Volume line: Представляет SMA объема за заданный период (по умолчанию: 20 баров). Объемы выше этой линии указывают на повышенную рыночную активность.
SD2 Volume line: Показывает SMA плюс одно стандартное отклонение объема. Объемы, превышающие этот уровень, свидетельствуют об экстремальной активности, часто связанной с пробоями, разворотами или значимыми событиями на рынке.
Применение в торговле:
Подтверждение пробоев: Всплеск объема выше SD2 Volume line во время пробоя цены увеличивает вероятность продолжения движения. Используйте для подтверждения входов в трендовые стратегии.
Оценка силы тренда: Объемы, стабильно превышающие Basis Volume line, сигнализируют о сильном участии игроков рынка, поддерживая сделки по тренду.
Избежание ложных сигналов: Низкие объемы ниже Basis Volume указывают на консолидацию или слабые движения, помогая избегать ложных пробоев или разворотов.
Обнаружение событий: Экстремальные объемы выше SD2 Volume часто совпадают с новостями или действиями крупных игроков, что побуждает трейдеров готовиться к волатильности.
Настройки:
Volume SMA Length (по умолчанию: 20)
Настройте период для расчета SMA и стандартного отклонения.
Меньшие значения (5–10) повышают чувствительность для внутридневной торговли.
Большие (20–50) подходят для старших таймфреймов.
Candle/Keltner Channels BUY SELLWhy Use Candlesticks?
They help traders visualize price action
Used in technical analysis and price pattern recognition (e.g., Doji, Engulfing, Hammer)
Assist in determining entry and exit points
Why Traders Use Keltner Channels?
Keltner Channels are widely used by traders for identifying trends, detecting volatility, and spotting trade opportunities.
1. Trend Identification
The middle line (EMA) shows the general trend.
If price consistently stays above the middle line, it indicates a strong uptrend.
If price stays below, it signals a downtrend.
Use: Traders follow the trend direction to enter trades in line with momentum.
2. Volatility Measurement
The width of the channel expands and contracts based on Average True Range (ATR).
Wider channels = high volatility, tighter channels = low volatility.
Use: Helps traders decide when to expect breakouts or calm periods.
3. Breakout Signals
A break above the upper band can signal a bullish breakout.
A break below the lower band can signal a bearish breakout.
Use: Traders use this for momentum trading and breakout entries.
4. Overbought/Oversold Conditions
Price touching or crossing the upper band may suggest it's overbought.
Price touching or crossing the lower band may suggest it's oversold.
Use: Traders combine this with RSI or MACD to confirm reversal setups.
5. Trade Entry and Exit
When price pulls back to the middle EMA during a trend, it may present a buy/sell opportunity.
Exits can also be planned if price returns inside the bands after a breakout.
Use: Helps with precise entry and exit timing.
6. Combines Well With Other Indicators
Commonly used with:
RSI (for confirmation)
MACD (for momentum)
Candlestick patterns (for price action signals)
Combining Candlestick Patterns with Keltner Channels gives traders a powerful method to confirm entries, spot reversals, and improve accuracy. Here’s why this combination works so well:
1. Context for Candlestick Signals
Candlestick patterns (like doji, engulfing, or pin bars) show potential price reversals, but they need context to be reliable. Keltner Channels provide that context:
A bullish candlestick near the lower band suggests a stronger buy signal.
A bearish candlestick near the upper band strengthens a sell signal.
2. Filtering False Signals
Candlestick patterns occur frequently, and not all are meaningful.
The location within the Keltner Channel helps filter out weak or false patterns.
Example: A bullish engulfing candle outside the lower band = high-probability reversal.
3. Improved Entry Timing
Traders wait for a candlestick pattern confirmation when price touches or crosses a Keltner band.
This avoids premature entries and allows tighter stop-losses.
4. Better Risk-Reward Setup
Candlestick entry near channel extremes (upper/lower band) lets traders place stop-losses just beyond recent highs/lows.
The target can be the opposite side of the channel or the middle EMA.
5. Visual Simplicity
Keltner Channels + Candles are visually intuitive.
Even beginner traders can easily recognize:
Overextended candles near channel edges.
Confirmed breakouts or reversals.

Support and Resistance Power Channel [ChartPrime]The Support and Resistance Power Channel indicator helps traders visualize key support and resistance zones, along with buy and sell power within those zones. By identifying the highest and lowest prices within a defined range, this indicator provides insight into potential price reversals and market strength. It calculates the strength of buy and sell pressure within the zones and includes additional features like midline values and delayed signals to reduce false breakouts.
⯁ KEY FEATURES AND HOW TO USE
⯌ Support and Resistance Zones :
This indicator identifies dynamic support (lower zone) and resistance (upper zone) levels, allowing traders to easily visualize key price levels. These zones are customizable with settings for the length of the channel and how far the zones extend into the future. The zones can be used to predict areas of potential price reversal or consolidation.
⯌ Buy and Sell Power :
Within the upper resistance zone, the indicator calculates Sell Power based on the number of bearish candles, while the lower support zone calculates Buy Power based on bullish candles. This feature helps traders understand the strength of buying or selling activity within each zone.
Example of buy and sell power tracking:
⯌ Highest, Lowest, and Mid Price Levels :
The indicator marks the highest and lowest price levels within the channel with an "X," and displays these values at the end of the channel. Additionally, the midline (average of the high and low) is plotted with a dotted line, showing a key area that the price often retests during trends.
⯌ Delayed Signal Markers :
To prevent false breakouts, the indicator includes a 2-bar delay for signals. These signals are plotted when the price crosses above or below the resistance or support zones, confirming potential reversals or breakouts. Arrows or diamonds are used to mark these signals on the chart.
Example of delayed breakout signals on the chart:
⯌ Extend Zones into the Future :
In the settings, traders can extend the support and resistance zones further into the future, allowing for ongoing analysis even after the initial levels have been identified. This feature can help with forward-looking trade planning.
⯁ USER INPUTS
Length : Defines the number of bars used to calculate the support and resistance zones.

3. Bollinger Band Squeeze Detection (SQZ)
The BB Squeeze indicator identifies periods of low volatility when Bollinger Bands contract inside Keltner Channels, often preceding significant price movements.
SQZ Visual Indicators
"●" (Filled Circle): Strong squeeze - high probability setup for an impending breakout
Green: Strong squeeze with bullish bias (likely upward breakout)
Red: Strong squeeze with bearish bias (likely downward breakout)
Orange: Strong squeeze with unclear direction
"◯" (Hollow Circle): Moderate squeeze - medium probability setup
Green: With bullish EMA alignment
Red: With bearish EMA alignment
Orange: Without clear directional bias
"-" (Dash): Gray dash indicates no squeeze condition (normal volatility)
The script identifies squeeze conditions through multiple methods:
Bollinger Bands contracting inside Keltner Channels
BB width falling to bottom 20% of recent range (BB width percentile)
Very narrow Keltner Channel (less than 5% of basis price)
Tracking squeeze duration in consecutive bars
Different squeeze strengths are detected:
Strong Squeeze: BB inside KC with tight BB width and narrow KC
Moderate Squeeze: BB inside KC with either tight BB width or narrow KC
No Squeeze: Normal market conditions
4. Breakout Detection System
The script includes two breakout indicators working in sequence:
4.1 Pre-Breakout (PBK) Indicator

Green: Likely upward breakout (bullish)
Red: Likely downward breakout (bearish)
Orange: Direction not yet clear, but breakout likely
"-" (Dash): Gray dash indicates no pre-breakout condition
The PBK uses sophisticated conditions to reduce false signals including minimum squeeze length, significant price movement, and technical confirmations.
4.2 Breakout (BK) Indicator
Confirms actual breakouts in progress by identifying:
End of squeeze or strong expansion of Bollinger Bands
Volume expansion
Price moving outside Bollinger Bands
EMA crossovers with volume confirmation
MACD crossovers with significant price range
BK Visual Indicators
"●" (Filled Circle): Confirmed breakout in progress
Green: Upward breakout (bullish)

The BK indicator uses advanced filters for confirmation:
Requires consecutive breakout signals to reduce false positives
Strong volume confirmation requirements (40% above average)
Significant price movement thresholds
Consistency checks between price action and indicators
5. Market Metrics and Analysis
Price Change Percentage (CHG%)
Displays the current percentage change relative to the previous day's close, color-coded green for positive changes and red for negative changes.
Average Daily Range (ADR%)
Calculates the average daily percentage range over a specified period (default 20 days), helping traders gauge volatility and set appropriate price targets.
Average True Range (ATR)
Shows the Average True Range value, a volatility indicator developed by J. Welles Wilder that measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range of an asset price for that period.
Relative Strength Index (RSI)
Displays the standard 14-period RSI, a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements on a scale from 0 to 100.
6. External Market Indicators

Regular market: 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM
After-hours: 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM
Closed: Outside trading hours
This detection works on any timeframe through careful calculation of current time in seconds.
Buy/Sell Volume Direction
The script analyzes buying and selling pressure by:
Counting up volume when close > open
Counting down volume when close < open
Tracking accumulated volume within the day
Calculating intraday pressure (up volume minus down volume)
Enhanced AVOL Calculation
The improved AVOL calculation works in all timeframes by:
Estimating typical pre-market and after-hours volume percentages
Combining yesterday's after-hours with today's pre-market volume
Calculating this as a percentage of the 21-day average volume
Determining buying/selling pressure by analyzing after-hours and pre-market price changes
Color-coding results: green for buying pressure, red for selling pressure
This calculation is particularly valuable because it works consistently across any timeframe.
Customization Options

These settings allow traders to fine-tune how momentum is factored into the volume trend analysis.
Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channel Settings
The Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels used for squeeze detection have preset (hidden) parameters:
BB Length: 20 periods
BB Multiplier: 2.0 standard deviations
Keltner Length: 20 periods
Keltner Multiplier: 1.5 ATR
These settings follow standard practice for squeeze detection while maintaining simplicity in the user interface.
Practical Trading Applications
Complete Trading Strategies
1. Squeeze Breakout Strategy
This strategy combines multiple components of the indicator:
Wait for a strong squeeze (SQZ showing ●)
Look for pre-breakout confirmation (PBK showing ● in green or red)
Enter when breakout is confirmed (BK showing ● in same direction)
Use VTR to confirm volume supports the move (VTR ≥ 65 for bullish or ≤ 35 for bearish)
Set profit targets based on ADR (Average Daily Range)
Exit when VTR begins to weaken or changes direction
2. Volume Divergence Strategy
This strategy focuses on the volume trend relative to price:
Identify when price makes a new high but VTR fails to confirm (divergence)
Look for VTR to show weakening trend (● changing to ◯ or ·)
Prepare for potential reversal when SQZ begins to form
Enter counter-trend position when PBK confirms reversal direction
Use external indicators (QQQ, BTC, Breadth) to confirm broader market support
3. Pre-Market Edge Strategy
This strategy leverages pre-market data:
Monitor AVOL for unusual pre-market activity (significantly above 100%)
Check pre-market price change direction (PCHG%)
Enter position at market open if VTR confirms direction
Use SQZ to determine if volatility is likely to expand
Exit based on RVOL declining or price reaching +/- ADR for the day
Market Context Integration
The indicator provides valuable context for trading decisions:
QQQ change shows tech market direction
BTC price shows crypto market correlation
UVIX change indicates volatility expectations
Breadth measurement shows market internals
This context helps traders avoid fighting the broader market and align trades with overall market direction.
Timeframe Optimization
The indicator is designed to work across different timeframes:
For day trading: Focus on AVOL, VTR, PBK/BK, and use shorter momentum periods
For swing trading: Focus on SQZ duration, VTR strength, and broader market indicators
For position trading: Focus on larger VTR trends and use EMA alignment weight
Advanced Analytical Components
Enhanced Volume Trend Score Calculation
The VTR score calculation is sophisticated, with the base score starting at 50 and adjusting for:
Price direction (up/down)
Volume relative to average (high/normal/low)
Volume acceleration/deceleration
Market conditions (bull/bear)
Additional factors are then applied, including:
MACD influence weighted by strength and direction
Volume change rate influence (speed)
Price/volume divergence effects
EMA alignment scores
Volatility adjustments
Breakout strength factors
Price action confirmations
The final score is clamped between 0-100, with values above 50 indicating bullish conditions and below 50 indicating bearish conditions.
Anti-False Signal Filters
The indicator employs multiple techniques to reduce false signals:
Requiring significant price range (minimum percentage movement)
Demanding strong volume confirmation (significantly above average)
Checking for consistent direction across multiple indicators
Requiring prior bar consistency (consecutive bars moving in same direction)
Counting consecutive signals to filter out noise
These filters help eliminate noise and focus on high-probability setups.
MACD Enhancement and Integration
The indicator enhances standard MACD analysis:
Calculating MACD relative strength compared to recent history
Normalizing MACD slope relative to volatility
Detecting MACD acceleration for stronger signals
Integrating MACD crossovers with other confirmation factors
EMA Analysis System
The indicator uses a comprehensive EMA analysis system:
Calculating multiple EMAs (5, 10, 21 periods)
Detecting golden cross (10 EMA crosses above 21 EMA)
Detecting death cross (10 EMA crosses below 21 EMA)
Assessing price position relative to EMAs
Measuring EMA separation percentage
Recent Enhancements and Evolution

Integrated Visual System for Trading Decisions
The colored circle indicators create an intuitive visual system for quick market assessment:
Progression Sequence: SQZ (Squeeze) → PBK (Pre-Breakout) → BK (Breakout)
This sequence often occurs in order, with the squeeze leading to pre-breakout conditions, followed by an actual breakout.
VTR (Volume Trend): Provides context about the volume supporting these movements.
Color Coding: Green for bullish conditions, red for bearish conditions, and orange/gray for neutral or undefined conditions.
Guppy Multiple Moving Average (GMMA)The GMMA Momentum Indicator plots 12 EMAs on your chart, divided into two groups:
Short-term EMAs (6 lines, default periods: 3, 5, 8, 10, 12, 15): Represent short-term trader sentiment and momentum.
Long-term EMAs (6 lines, default periods: 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 60): Reflect long-term investor behavior and broader market trends.
By analyzing the interaction between these two groups, the indicator identifies:
Bullish and bearish trends based on the relative positions of the short- and long-term EMAs.
Momentum strength through the spread or convergence of the EMAs.
Potential reversals or breakouts via compression signals.
This PineScript version enhances the traditional GMMA by adding visual cues like background colors, bearish signals, and compression detection, making it ideal for swing traders seeking clear, actionable insights.
The GMMA Momentum Indicator provides several key features:
1. Trend Identification
Bullish Trend: When the short-term EMAs (green lines) are above the long-term EMAs (blue lines) and spreading apart, it signals strong upward momentum. The chart background turns light green to highlight this condition.
Bearish Trend: When the short-term EMAs cross below the long-term EMAs and converge, it indicates downward momentum. The background turns light red, and an orange downward triangle appears above the bar to mark a new bearish signal.
2. Momentum Analysis
The spread between the short-term EMAs reflects the strength of short-term momentum. A wide spread suggests strong momentum, while a tight grouping indicates weakening momentum or consolidation. Similarly, the long-term EMAs act as dynamic support or resistance, guiding traders on the broader trend.
3. Compression Detection
Compression occurs when both the short-term and long-term EMAs converge, signaling low volatility and a potential breakout or reversal. A yellow upward triangle appears below the bar when compression is detected, alerting traders to watch for price action.
4. Visual Cues
Green short-term EMAs: Show short-term trader activity.
Blue long-term EMAs: Represent long-term investor sentiment.
Background colors: Light green for bullish trends, light red for bearish trends, and transparent for neutral conditions.
Orange downward triangles: Mark new bearish trends.
Yellow upward triangles: Indicate compression, hinting at potential breakouts.
How to Use the GMMA Momentum Indicator for Swing Trading
Swing trading involves capturing price moves over days to weeks, and the GMMA Momentum Indicator is an excellent tool for this strategy. Here’s how to use it effectively:
1. Identifying Trade Entries
Buy Opportunities:
Look for a bullish trend (green background) where the short-term EMAs are above the long-term EMAs and spreading apart, indicating strong momentum.
A compression signal (yellow triangle) followed by a breakout above resistance or a bullish candlestick pattern can confirm an entry.
Example: On a daily chart, if the short-term EMAs cross above the long-term EMAs and the background turns green, consider entering a long position, especially if volume supports the move.
Sell Opportunities:
Watch for a bearish signal (orange downward triangle) or a bearish trend (red background) where the short-term EMAs cross below the long-term EMAs.
Example: If the short-term EMAs collapse below the long-term EMAs and an orange triangle appears, it may signal a shorting opportunity or a time to exit longs.
2. Managing Trades
Use the long-term EMAs as dynamic support (in uptrends) or resistance (in downtrends) to set stop-loss levels or trail stops.
Monitor the spread of the short-term EMAs. A widening spread suggests the trend is strong, while convergence may indicate it’s time to take profits or tighten stops.
3. Anticipating Reversals
Compression signals (yellow triangles) highlight periods of low volatility, often preceding significant price moves. Combine these with price action (e.g., breakouts or reversals) or other indicators (e.g., RSI or volume) for confirmation.
Example: If a compression signal appears near a key support level and the price breaks upward, it could signal the start of a new bullish swing.
4. Best Practices
Timeframes: The indicator works well on daily or 4-hour charts for swing trading, but you can adjust the EMA periods for shorter (e.g., 1-hour) or longer (e.g., weekly) timeframes.
Confirmation: Combine the GMMA with other tools like support/resistance levels, candlestick patterns, or oscillators (e.g., MACD) to reduce false signals.
Risk Management: Always use proper position sizing and stop-losses, as EMAs are lagging indicators and may produce delayed signals in choppy markets.
Anchored Darvas Box## ANCHORED DARVAS BOX

### OVERVIEW
**Anchored Darvas Box** lets you drop a single timestamp on your chart and build a Darvas-style consolidation zone forward from that exact candle. The indicator freezes the first user-defined number of bars to establish the range, verifies that price respects that range for another user-defined number of bars, then waits for the first decisive breakout. The resulting rectangle captures every tick of the accumulation phase and the exact moment of expansion—no manual drawing, complete timestamp precision.
---
### HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
Nicolas Darvas’s 1950s box theory tracked institutional accumulation by hand-drawing rectangles around tight price ranges. A trade was triggered only when price escaped the rectangle.
The anchored version preserves Darvas’s logic but pins the entire sequence to a user-chosen candle: perfect for analysing a market open, an earnings release, FOMC minute, or any other catalytic bar.
---
### ALGORITHM DETAIL
1. **ANCHOR BAR**
*You provide a timestamp via the settings panel.* The script waits until the chart reaches that bar and records its index as **startBar**.
2. **RANGE DEFINITION — BARS 1-7**
• `rangeHigh` = highest high of bars 1-7 plus optional tolerance.
• `rangeLow` = lowest low of bars 1-7 minus optional tolerance.
3. **RANGE VALIDATION — BARS 8-14**
• Price must stay inside ` `.
• Any violation aborts the test; no box is created.
4. **ARMED STATE**
• If bars 8-14 hold the range, two live guide-lines appear:
– **Green** at `rangeHigh`
– **Red** at `rangeLow`
• The script is now “armed,” waiting indefinitely for the first true breakout.
5. **BREAKOUT & BOX CREATION**
• **Up breakout** =`high > rangeHigh` → rectangle drawn in **green**.
• **Down breakout**=`low < rangeLow` → rectangle drawn in **red**.
• Box extends from **startBar** to the breakout bar and never updates again.
• Optional labels print the dollar and percentage height of the box at its left edge.
6. **OPTIONAL COOLDOWN**
• After the box is painted the script can stay silent for a user-defined number of bars, letting you study the fallout without another range immediately arming on top of it.
---
### INPUT PARAMETERS
• **ANCHOR TIME** – Precise yyyy-mm-dd HH:MM:SS that seeds the sequence.
• **BARS TO DEFINE RANGE** – Default 7; affects both definition and validation windows.
• **OPTIONAL TOLERANCE** – Absolute price buffer to ignore micro-wicks.
• **COOLDOWN BARS AFTER BREAKOUT** – Pause length before the indicator is allowed to re-anchor (set to zero to disable).
• **SHOW BOX DISTANCE LABELS** – Toggle to print Δ\$ and Δ% on every completed box.
---
### USER WORKFLOW
1. Add the indicator, open settings, and set **ANCHOR TIME** to the candle you care about (e.g., “2025-04-23 09:30:00” for NYSE open).
2. Watch live as the script:
– Paints the seven-bar range.
– Draws validation lines.
– Locks in the box on breakout.
3. Use the box boundaries as structural stops, targets, or context for further trades.
---
### PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS
• **OPENING RANGE BREAKOUTS** – Anchor at the first second of the session; capture the initial 7-bar range and trade the first clean break.
• **EVENT STUDIES** – Anchor at a news candle to measure immediate post-event volatility.
• **VOLUME PROFILE FUSION** – Combine the anchored box with VPVR to see if the breakout occurs at a high-volume node or a low-liquidity pocket.
• **RISK DISCIPLINE** – Stop-loss can sit just inside the opposite edge of the anchored range, enforcing objective risk.
---
### ADVANCED CUSTOMISATION IDEAS
• **MULTIPLE ANCHORS** – Clone the indicator and anchor several boxes (e.g., London open, New York open).
• **DYNAMIC WINDOW** – Switch the 7-bar fixed length to a volatility-scaled length (ATR percentile).
• **STRATEGY WRAPPER** – Turn the indicator into a `strategy{}` script and back-test anchored boxes on decades of data.
---
### FINAL THOUGHTS
Anchored Darvas Boxes give you Darvas’s timeless range-break methodology anchored to any candle of interest—perfect for dissecting openings, economic releases, or your own bespoke “important” bars with laboratory precision.
Amihud Liquidity RatioCalculates liquidity as a sort of moving average over time
The Amihud Illiquidity Ratio (ILLIQ) measures the price impact of trading volume. It's calculated as the absolute daily return divided by the daily dollar volume:
𝐼𝐿𝐿𝐼𝑄ₜ = |𝑅ₜ| / 𝑉𝑂𝐿𝐷ₜ
Where:
|𝑅ₜ| is the absolute value on return day t
𝑉𝑂𝐿𝐷ₜ is the dollar trading volume on day t
Here's how you can incorporate this indicator into your analysis:
1. Identifying Liquidity Regimes:
High Liquidity (Low Indicator Values): When the indicator is consistently low, it suggests a market or asset where it's generally easier to enter and exit positions without significant slippage. This might be a more favorable environment for strategies that rely on tight spreads and efficient order execution.
Low Liquidity (High Indicator Values): When the indicator is consistently high or spiking, it signals periods of lower liquidity. This can lead to:
Increased Volatility: Fewer participants and larger bid-ask spreads can amplify price movements.
Higher Slippage: Executing large orders might result in getting a worse price than expected.
Gap Risk: Significant price gaps can occur between trading sessions due to a lack of continuous trading interest.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Confirming Trends and Breakouts:
Trend Confirmation:
Uptrend with Increasing Liquidity (Falling Amihud): A healthy uptrend often sees increasing participation and ease of trading. A falling Amihud during an uptrend can provide confidence in the trend's sustainability.
Uptrend with Decreasing Liquidity (Rising Amihud): An uptrend accompanied by rising Amihud might be less stable. It could suggest that the price increase is driven by fewer participants and might be more prone to reversals.
The same logic applies to downtrends, but in reverse.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Breakout Confirmation:
Breakout with Increasing Liquidity (Falling Amihud): A breakout accompanied by increasing liquidity (falling Amihud) can suggest strong conviction and a higher probability of the breakout being sustained.
Breakout with Decreasing Liquidity (Rising Amihud): A breakout on low liquidity might be more suspect and could be a "fakeout" if there isn't enough sustained buying or selling pressure.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Identifying Potential Reversal Points:
Liquidity Exhaustion: Sometimes, a prolonged period of low liquidity (high Amihud) might precede a reversal. The lack of active trading interest at those levels could make the price more susceptible to a shift in sentiment.
Liquidity Surges: A sudden spike in liquidity (a sharp drop in Amihud) after a period of low liquidity could indicate renewed interest and potentially the start of a new trend or a reversal of the previous one.

FVG + Swings + ConfigurableOverview
This Pine Script v5 indicator highlights Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), plots swing‑high and swing‑low pivots, and marks single breakouts above the last swing‑high or below the last swing‑low by recoloring the breakout candle. Every aspect—gap size, count limits, colors, and feature toggles—is exposed as an input so you can tailor it to your own workflow.
Key Features
Fair Value Gaps
Detects bullish gaps when the high of bar i-2 is below the low of the current bar.
Detects bearish gaps when the low of bar i-2 is above the high of the current bar.
Draws a semi‑transparent rectangle spanning from bar i-2 to bar i + extension.
Automatically deletes oldest boxes when exceeding the user’s “Max FVG Boxes” limit.
Swing‑High / Swing‑Low Pivots
Identifies a swing‑high when the middle candle of a three‑bar sequence has the highest high.
Identifies a swing‑low when the middle candle has the lowest low.
Marks each pivot with a tiny dot above (high) or below (low) the bar.
Single Breakouts
Tracks the most recent swing‑high and swing‑low levels.
On the first close above the last swing‑high (or below the last swing‑low), recolors that single candle.
Prevents repeated coloring until a new swing pivot forms.
Full Customization
Show/Hide toggles for FVGs, swing pivots, breakouts.
Numeric inputs for FVG extension length and maximum retained boxes.
Color pickers for bullish/bearish gaps, swing pivots, and breakout candles.
Consecutive CandlesSummary
This indicator helps visualize short-term momentum by automatically drawing boxes around sequences of consecutive same-colored candles (bullish or bearish). It's designed to quickly highlight periods of sustained buying or selling pressure directly on your chart.
How it Works
Consecutive Candle Detection: The script monitors the chart bar by bar, tracking consecutive candles where close > open (bullish) or close < open (bearish).
Box Drawing: When a sequence of same-colored candles reaches a user-defined minimum length (default is 3) and this sequence is then broken by an opposite-colored candle or a doji, a box is drawn.
Box Boundaries:
The top of the box is set to the highest high price reached during the sequence.
The bottom of the box is set to the lowest low price reached during the sequence.
The left edge of the box aligns with the start time of the first candle in the sequence.
The right edge of the box aligns with the end time of the last candle in the sequence.
Stability: Uses xloc = xloc.bar_time to ensure boxes remain accurately anchored to the price bars when zooming or panning the chart.
Real-time Extension: For active sequences meeting the minimum length on the latest developing bar, the box is optionally extended to the right.
Features
Automatically identifies and boxes sequences of 3 or more (customizable) consecutive bullish candles.
Automatically identifies and boxes sequences of 3 or more (customizable) consecutive bearish candles.
Extends box in real-time for active qualifying sequences.
Customizable minimum candle count (>= 2).
Customizable colors for bullish/bearish boxes and borders.
Settings
You can customize the indicator via the Settings menu (gear icon):
Minimum Consecutive Candles: Define how many candles in a row are needed to draw a box (Default: 3).
Bullish Box Color: Set the fill color for boxes around bullish sequences.
Bearish Box Color: Set the fill color for boxes around bearish sequences.
Box Border Color: Set the color for the border of all boxes.
Potential Use Cases
Momentum Identification: Quickly spot periods of strong, uninterrupted buying or selling.
Exhaustion/Reversal Signals: Very long sequences might indicate potential exhaustion, setting up reversal opportunities.
Consolidation Breakouts: A box forming after a period of tight consolidation can highlight the range just before a potential breakout.
Confirmation: Use the boxes as confirmation for entries or exits based on momentum shifts.
Disclaimer: This indicator provides visual aids based on price action. It should not be used as a standalone trading system. Always use indicators in conjunction with your own analysis and risk management rules.
Demand, Supply and Channel by BULL┃NET
The B | N DESC (Demand, Supply, and Channel by BULL / NET)
Indicator helps traders identify demand and supply lines. Breakouts are detected, and potential targets are calculated. Additionally, channels are automatically detected.
⚠️ Disclaimer – Please Read Before Using ⚠️
Concepts
Trend, demand, and supply lines are fundamental concepts in trading to identify a trend and detect a potential trend change. However, there’s a significant issue: if you show a chart to 10 traders and ask them to draw trend, demand, and supply lines, you’ll likely get 10 different results. This is where B | N DESC comes into play. The indicator defines demand and supply lines objectively using pivot points of different levels.
A pivot point is a high or low on the chart surrounded by bars that form lower highs or higher lows. The number of bars to the left and right defines the pivot length or level. Supply lines connect pivot highs top-down, and demand lines connect pivot lows bottom-up. Unlike traditional trendlines, which are drawn from left to right and require three anchor points, supply and demand lines are drawn from right to left.
Features
Supply Line Options
These settings control how supply lines and channels are calculated and drawn on the chart. You can display up to three supply lines.
- 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Supply Line : By default, two supply lines are active. Each line can be enabled or disabled individually.
- Channel: Determines whether channels are displayed.
- Confirm : If enabled, the channel will not be shown until confirmed by the price.
- Fill : When enabled, the channel will be filled with the chosen color once confirmed by the price.
- Level : You can define pivot points for any level between 1 and 100. Default values are 3, 5, and 15.
- Color, Style, Width: These settings customize the appearance of the supply lines.
Demand Line Options
Similar to the supply lines, these settings control how demand lines and channels are calculated and displayed on the chart. You can display up to three demand lines.
- 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Demand Line : By default, two demand lines are active.
- Channel and Confirm : Functions similarly to supply lines.
- Level: Levels between 1 and 100 are available, with default values of 3, 5, and 15.
- Color, Style, Width : These settings allow you to adjust the appearance of the demand lines.
Level Label Options
When a new demand or supply line is drawn, a small label appears at the x2 coordinate of the line. The label shows the height of the extreme point and the direction (up or down) along with the line type (D = Demand, S = Supply) and the selected pivot level.
Breakout Label Options
- Show in Timeframe : Breakout and target labels are shown by default in timeframes above 30 minutes. In shorter timeframes, pivot points can change rapidly, causing the labels to cover the bars.
- Breakout : The breakout label contains the breakout price, direction, pivot level, and breakout attempts.
- Target : A label that displays the target price, which is linked to the breakout point on the supply or demand line.
Additional Options
- Burned Line : Supply and demand lines remain active until new pivot points create a new line of the same level. After the 4th breakout, the line is marked as “burned” and will no longer be monitored for further breakouts.
- Spread : This feature allows you to account for your broker’s spread in the target calculation to avoid discrepancies.

ORB with 100 EMAORB Trading Strategy for FX Pairs on the 30-Minute Time Frame
Overview
This Opening Range Breakout (ORB) strategy is designed for trading FX pairs on the 30-minute time frame. The strategy is structured to take advantage of price momentum while aligning trades with the overall trend using the 100-period Exponential Moving Average (100EMA). The primary objective is to enter trades when price breaks and closes above or below the Opening Range (OR), with additional confirmation from a retest of the OR level if the initial entry is missed.
Strategy Rules
1. Defining the Opening Range (OR)
- The OR is determined by the high and low of the first 30-minute candle after market open.
- This range acts as the key level for breakout trading.
2. Trend Confirmation Using the 100EMA
- The 100EMA serves as a filter to determine trade direction:
- Buy Setup: Only take buy trades when the OR is above the 100EMA.
- Sell Setup: Only take sell trades when the OR is below the 100EMA.
3. Entry Criteria
- Buy Trade: Enter a long position when a candle breaks and closes above the OR high, confirming the breakout.
- Sell Trade: Enter a short position when a candle breaks and closes below the OR low, confirming the breakout.
- Retest Entry: If the initial entry is missed, wait for a price retest of the OR level for a secondary entry opportunity.
4. Risk-to-Reward Ratio (R2R)
- The goal is to target a 1:1 Risk-to-Reward (R2R) ratio.
- Stop-loss placement:
- Buy Trade: Place stop-loss just below the OR low.
- Sell Trade: Place stop-loss just above the OR high.
- Take profit at a distance equal to the stop-loss for a 1:1 R2R.
5. Risk Management
- Risk per trade should be based on personal risk tolerance.
- Adjust lot sizes accordingly to maintain a controlled risk percentage of account balance.
- Avoid over-leveraging, and consider moving stop-loss to breakeven if the price moves favourably.
Additional Considerations
- Avoid trading during major news events that may cause high volatility and unpredictable price movements.
- Monitor market conditions to ensure breakout confirmation with strong momentum rather than false breakouts.
- Use additional confluences such as candlestick patterns, support/resistance zones, or volume analysis for stronger trade validation.
This ORB strategy is designed to provide structured trade opportunities by combining breakout momentum with trend confirmation via the 100EMA. The strategy is straightforward, allowing traders to capitalise on clear breakout movements while implementing effective risk management practices. While the 1:1 R2R target provides a balanced approach, traders should always adapt their risk tolerance and market conditions to optimise trade performance.
By following these rules and maintaining discipline, traders can use this strategy effectively across various FX pairs on the 30-minute time frame.
Schwarzman Custom ORB with Box DisplayIndicator Overview
The Schwarzman Custom ORB (Opening Range Breakout) Indicator is a fully self-developed script designed for traders who utilize opening range breakout strategies. This indicator allows users to customize their ORB settings, apply them to historical price data, and visually connect multiple ORBs to analyze past performance. The goal is to provide traders with a tool to backtest and refine their breakout strategies based on historical ORB data.
How the Indicator Works
1️⃣ User-Defined ORB Settings
• The user selects a custom start time (hour and minute) for the ORB.
• The user defines a duration (e.g., 15 minutes, 30 minutes, etc.) for the ORB period.
• A timezone offset is included to adjust for different market sessions.
2️⃣ ORB High and Low Calculation
• The script records the highest and lowest prices within the selected ORB time window.
• The recorded values remain static after the ORB period ends, ensuring accurate range plotting.
3️⃣ Historical ORB Visualization
• Instead of only showing a single ORB for the current session, this indicator connects multiple ORBs across past data.
• This allows traders to visually analyze previous breakout performance.
• The plotted ORBs remain fixed and do not repaint, ensuring an accurate backtesting experience.
4️⃣ Stepline Visualization & Range Filling
• The high and low ORB levels are displayed using stepline plots to maintain clear horizontal levels.
• A shaded box is applied between the ORB high and low for better visualization.
Use Cases & Strategy Application
📌 Backtesting Historical ORBs – See how past ORBs performed under different market conditions.
📌 Custom ORB Settings – Adjust the start time and duration for different trading sessions.
📌 Multi-ORB Analysis – Connect ORBs over multiple trading days to study trends and breakouts.
📌 Breakout Strategy Optimization – Use the historical ORB connections to refine entry and exit points.
This indicator is particularly useful for day traders, scalpers, and breakout traders looking for a data-driven approach to trading.
Indicator Development & Transparency Statement
As a trader, I have tested various ORB (Opening Range Breakout) indicators available in the TradingView community. Through these experiences, I aimed to develop a version that best fits my own trading needs and strategy.
This script is a self-developed ORB tool, created from scratch while drawing inspiration from the concept of opening range breakouts, which is widely used in trading. Since I initially coded in Pine Script v4, I used ChatGPT to help refine and migrate the script to Pine Script v6 to ensure compatibility with the latest TradingView features. However, the core logic, structure, and customization were entirely designed and implemented based on my own approach.
I am making this indicator public not to violate any TradingView guidelines but to share my work with the trading community and provide a tool that can help others analyze ORB-based strategies. If there are any compliance concerns, I am open to adjusting the script accordingly, but I want to clarify that this is not a copy of any existing ORB script—it is a custom-built indicator tailored to my own trading preferences.
I appreciate the opportunity to contribute to the community and would welcome any specific feedback from TradingView regarding rule compliance.
Best regards,
Janko S. (Schwarzman)

Dynamic Median EMA | QuantEdgeBIntroducing Dynamic Median EMA by QuantEdgeB
Dynamic Median EMA | QuantEdgeB is an adaptive moving average indicator that blends median filtering, a volatility-based dynamic EMA, and customizable filtering techniques to create a responsive yet stable trend detection system. By incorporating Standard Deviation (SD) or ATR bands, this indicator dynamically adjusts to market conditions, making it a powerful tool for both traders and investors.
Key Features:
1. Dynamic EMA with Efficiency Ratio 🟣
- Adjusts smoothing based on market conditions, ensuring optimal responsiveness to price changes.
- Uses an efficiency ratio to dynamically modify the smoothing factor, making it highly adaptive.
2. Median-Based vs. Traditional EMA Source 📊
- Users can choose between a Median-based smoothing method (default: ✅ enabled ) or a traditional price source.
- The median filter provides better noise reduction in choppy markets.
3. Volatility-Based Filtering with Custom Bands 🎯
- Two filtering methods:
a. Standard Deviation (SD) Bands 📏 (default ✅) – Expands and contracts based on
historical deviation.
b. ATR Bands 📈 – Uses Average True Range (ATR) to adjust dynamic thresholds.
- The user can toggle between SD and ATR filtering, depending on market behavior.
4. Customizable Signal Generation ✅❌
- Long Signal: Triggered when the price closes above the selected upper filter band .
- Short Signal: Triggered when the price closes below the lower filter band .
- Dynamically adjusts based on the filtering method (SD or ATR).
5. Enhanced Visuals & Customization🎨
- Multiple color modes available (Default, Solar, Warm, Cool, Classic, X).
- Gradient filter bands provide a clearer view of volatility expansion/contraction.
- Candlestick coloring for instant visual confirmation of bullish/bearish conditions.
________
How It Works:
- Source Selection : Users can choose to use the median of price action or a traditional price feed as the base input for the Dynamic EMA.
- Dynamic EMA Calculation : The indicator applies a volatility-adjusted smoothing algorithm based on the efficiency ratio, ensuring that price trends are detected quickly in volatile markets and smoothly in stable ones.
- Filtering Mechanism : 🎯 Use can chose between two filtering options. Standard deviation to dynamically adjust based on market deviations or ATR Bands to determine trend strength through volatility expansions
- Signal Generation :
1. Bullish (🔵) is triggered when price crosses above the upper band.
2. Bearish (🔴) is generated when price drops below the lower band.
- The filtering method (SD/ATR) determines how the bands expand/contract, allowing for better trade adaptability.
________
Use Cases:
✅ For Trend Trading & Breakouts:
- Use SD bands (default setting) to capture trend breakouts and avoid premature entries.
- SD bands expand during high volatility, helping confirm strong breakouts, and contract during low volatility, helping confirm earlier trend exit.
- Consider increasing Dynamic EMA length (default 8) for longer-term trend detection.
✅ For Smoother Trend Filtering:
- Enable ATR bands for a more stable and gradual trend filter.
- ATR bands help reduce noise in choppy conditions while maintaining responsiveness to volatility.
- This setting is useful for traders looking to ride trends with fewer false exits.
✅ For Volatility Awareness:
- Watch the expansion and contraction of the filter bands:
- Wide SD bands = High volatility, breakout potential.
- Tight SD bands = Consolidation, potential trend exhaustion.
- ATR bands provide steadier adjustments, making them ideal for traders who prefer
smoother trend confirmation.
________
Customization Options:
- Source Selection 🟢 (Default: Median filtering enabled ✅)
- Dynamic EMA Length ⏳ (Default: 8 )
- Filtering Method🎯 (SD Bands ✅ by default, toggle ATR if needed)
- Standard Deviation Length 📏 (Default: 30 )
- ATR Length 📈 (Default: 14, ATR multiplier 1.3)
- SD Bands Weights:📌
- Default settings (Upper = 1.035, Lower = 1.02) are optimized for daily charts.
- For lower timeframes (e.g., hourly charts), consider using lighter weights such as Upper =
1.024 / Lower = 1.008 to better capture price movements.
- The optimal SD Band weights depend on the asset's volatility, so adjust accordingly to align

[Daily] CRT with OHLC Reference Here’s a breakdown of Daily CRT:
1. What is Daily CRT?
Daily CRT focuses on the price action of daily candles, treating them as ranges that can be broken or manipulated.
The theory suggests that certain candles on the daily chart form ranges that act as key levels for price expansion or reversal.
These ranges are not just simple support and resistance levels but are tied to the concept of liquidity draws, where price is likely to move towards areas where liquidity is concentrated (e.g., highs, lows, or key levels).
2. Key Components of Daily CRT
Ranging Candle: The first candle in the CRT setup establishes the range. This candle’s high and low become the key levels to watch.
Manipulation Candle: The second candle often manipulates the range by either breaking it or testing it. This is where turtle soup (false breakouts) can occur.
Distribution Candle: The third candle is where the price either confirms the breakout or reverses, leading to a potential expansion in the opposite direction.
3. How to Use Daily CRT
Identify the Range: On the daily chart, identify a candle that forms a clear range (high and low). This is your Ranging Candle.
Watch for Manipulation: The next candle (Manipulation Candle) will often test or break the range. If it breaks the range but then reverses back inside, it’s a turtle soup (false breakout), indicating a potential reversal.
Trade the Distribution: The third candle (Distribution Candle) is where you look for confirmation. If the price breaks the range and continues in the same direction, it’s a true breakout. If it reverses, it’s a false breakout, and you can trade the reversal.
4. Daily CRT and Key Levels
Daily CRT works best when combined with higher timeframe key levels (e.g., weekly or monthly highs/lows, order blocks, fair value gaps, etc.).
The daily candle ranges often align with these key levels, providing confluence for potential reversals or expansions.
5. Time Alignment in Daily CRT
Time is a critical factor in CRT. The PDF emphasizes that the highest probability CRT setups occur at specific times of the day or week.
For example, the purge (breakout or reversal) of a daily CRT often happens during key trading sessions (e.g., London open, New York open).
6. Practical Steps for Daily CRT
Determine the Draw on Liquidity: Use higher timeframe analysis (weekly or monthly) to identify where price is likely to move (e.g., towards a key level or liquidity pool).
Identify the Daily Range: On the daily chart, mark the high and low of the ranging candle.
Watch for Manipulation: Observe the next candle to see if it breaks the range or tests it. Look for signs of turtle soup (false breakouts).
Trade the Distribution: Once the third candle confirms the direction (either breakout or reversal), enter the trade with proper risk management.
7. Example of Daily CRT
Ranging Candle: On Monday, a daily candle forms a range between 1.1000 (low) and 1.1100 (high).
Manipulation Candle: On Tuesday, the price breaks below 1.1000 but then reverses back above it, forming a turtle soup (false breakout).
Distribution Candle: On Wednesday, the price confirms the reversal by breaking above 1.1100, signaling a potential bullish expansion.
8. Integration with Other Concepts
Daily CRT should not be used in isolation. It works best when combined with other ICT concepts like:
Market Profiles: Understanding whether the market is in a ranging, expansion, or reversal phase.
Orderflow: Identifying bullish or bearish orderflow to confirm the direction of the CRT.
Key Levels: Using higher timeframe key levels to add confluence to the CRT setup.
Time: Aligning the CRT with key times (e.g., London open, New York open) for higher probability setups.
9. Risk Management in Daily CRT
Always use proper risk management when trading CRT setups. The PDF suggests risking no more than 0.5% of your account per trade.
Use stop-losses and position sizing to protect your capital, especially since CRT setups can involve false breakouts (turtle soups).
10. Summary
Daily CRT is a powerful tool for identifying key levels and potential price expansions or reversals on the daily chart.
It involves analyzing three key candles: the Ranging Candle, the Manipulation Candle, and the Distribution Candle.
The theory is most effective when combined with higher timeframe key levels, market profiles, orderflow, and proper time alignment.
By mastering Daily CRT, you can improve your ability to predict market movements and frame high-probability trades.
Judas Swing ICT 01 [TradingFinder] New York Midnight Opening M15🔵 Introduction
The Judas Swing (ICT Judas Swing) is a trading strategy developed by Michael Huddleston, also known as Inner Circle Trader (ICT). This strategy allows traders to identify fake market moves designed by smart money to deceive retail traders.
By concentrating on market structure, price action patterns, and liquidity flows, traders can align their trades with institutional movements and avoid common pitfalls. It is particularly useful in FOREX and stock markets, helping traders identify optimal entry and exit points while minimizing risks from false breakouts.
In today's volatile markets, understanding how smart money manipulates price action across sessions such as Asia, London, and New York is essential for success. The ICT Judas Swing strategy helps traders avoid common pitfalls by focusing on key movements during the opening time and range of each session, identifying breakouts and false breakouts.
By utilizing various time frames and improving risk management, this strategy enables traders to make more informed decisions and take advantage of significant market movements.
In the Judas Swing strategy, for a bullish setup, the price first touches the high of the 15-minute range of New York midnight and then the low. After that, the price returns upward, breaks the high, and if there’s a candlestick confirmation during the pullback, a buy signal is generated.
bearish setup, the price first touches the low of the range, then the high. With the price returning downward and breaking the low, if there’s a candlestick confirmation during the pullback to the low, a sell signal is generated.
🔵 How to Use
To effectively implement the Judas Swing strategy (ICT Judas Swing) in trading, traders must first identify the price range of the 15-minute window following New York midnight. This range, consisting of highs and lows, sets the stage for the upcoming movements in the London and New York sessions.
🟣 Bullish Setup
For a bullish setup, the price first moves to touch the high of the range, then the low, before returning upward to break the high. Following this, a pullback occurs, and if a valid candlestick confirmation (such as a reversal pattern) is observed, a buy signal is generated. This confirmation could indicate the presence of smart money supporting the bullish movement.
🟣 Bearish Setup
For a bearish setup, the process is the reverse. The price first touches the low of the range, then the high. Afterward, the price moves downward again and breaks the low. A pullback follows to the broken low, and if a bearish candlestick confirmation is seen, a sell signal is generated. This confirmation signals the continuation of the downward price movement.
Using the Judas Swing strategy enables traders to avoid fake breakouts and focus on strong market confirmations. The strategy is versatile, applying to FOREX, stocks, and other financial instruments, offering optimal trading opportunities through market structure analysis and time frame synchronization.
To execute this strategy successfully, traders must combine it with effective risk management techniques such as setting appropriate stop losses and employing optimal risk-to-reward ratios. While the Judas Swing is a powerful tool for predicting price movements, traders should remember that no strategy is entirely risk-free. Proper capital management remains a critical element of long-term success.
By mastering the ICT Judas Swing strategy, traders can better identify entry and exit points and avoid common traps from fake market movements, ultimately improving their trading performance.
🔵 Setting
Opening Range : High and Low identification time range.
Extend : The time span of the dashed line.
Permit : Signal emission time range.
🔵 Conclusion
The Judas Swing strategy (ICT Judas Swing) is a powerful tool in technical analysis that helps traders identify fake moves and align their trades with institutional actions, reducing risk and enhancing their ability to capitalize on market opportunities.
By leveraging key levels such as range highs and lows, fake breakouts, and candlestick confirmations, traders can enter trades with more precision. This strategy is applicable in forex, stocks, and other financial markets and, with proper risk management, can lead to consistent trading success.
Precision Cloud by Dr ABIRAM SIVPRASAD
Precision Cloud by Dr. Abhiram Sivprasad"
The " Precision Cloud" script, created by Dr. Abhiram Sivprasad, is a multi-purpose technical analysis tool designed for Forex, Bitcoin, Commodities, Stocks, and Options trading. It focuses on identifying key levels of support and resistance, combined with moving averages (EMAs) and central pivot ranges (CPR), to help traders make informed trading decisions. The script also provides a visual "light system" to highlight potential long or short positions, aiding traders in entering trades with a clear strategy.
Key Features of the Script:
Central Pivot Range (CPR):
The CPR is calculated as the average of the high, low, and close of the price, while the top and bottom pivots are derived from it. These act as dynamic support and resistance zones.
The script can plot daily CPR, support, and resistance levels (S1/R1, S2/R2, S3/R3) as well as optional weekly and monthly pivot points.
The CPR helps identify whether the price is in a bullish, bearish, or neutral zone.
Support and Resistance Levels:
Three daily support (S1, S2, S3) and resistance (R1, R2, R3) levels are plotted based on the CPR.
These levels act as potential reversal or breakout points, allowing traders to make decisions around key price points.
EMA (Exponential Moving Averages):
The script includes two customizable EMAs (default periods of 9 and 21). You can choose the source for these EMAs (open, high, low, or close).
The crossovers between EMA1 and EMA2 help identify potential trend reversals or momentum shifts.
Lagging Span:
The Lagging Span is plotted with a customizable displacement (default 26), which helps identify overall trend direction by comparing past price with the current price.
Light System:
A color-coded table provides a visual representation of market conditions:
Green indicates bullish signals (e.g., price above CPR, EMAs aligning positively).
Red indicates bearish signals (e.g., price below CPR, EMAs aligning negatively).
Yellow indicates neutral conditions, where there is no clear trend direction.
The system includes lights for CPR, EMA, Long Position, and Short Position, helping traders quickly assess whether the market is in a buying or selling opportunity.
Trading Strategies Using the Script
1. Forex Trading:
Trend-Following with EMAs: Use the EMA crossovers to capture trending markets in Forex. A green light for the EMA combined with a price above the daily or weekly pivot levels suggests a buying opportunity. Conversely, if the EMA light turns red and price falls below the CPR levels, look for shorting opportunities.
Reversal Strategy: Watch for price action near the daily S1/R1 levels. If price holds above S1 and the EMA is green, this could signal a reversal from support. The same applies to resistance levels.
2. Bitcoin Trading:
Momentum Breakouts: Bitcoin is known for its sharp moves. The script helps to identify breakouts from the CPR range. If the price breaks above the TC (Top Central Pivot) with bullish EMA alignment (green light), it could signal a strong uptrend.
Lagging Span Confirmation: Use the Lagging Span to confirm the trend direction. For Bitcoin's volatility, when the lagging span shows consistent alignment with the price and CPR, it often indicates continuation of the trend.
3. Commodities Trading:
Support/Resistance Bounce: Commodities such as gold and oil often react well to pivot levels. Look for price bouncing off S1 or R1 for potential entry points. A green CPR light along with price above the pivot range supports a bullish bias.
EMA Pullback Strategy: If price moves in a strong trend and pulls back to one of the EMAs, a green EMA light suggests re-entry on a pullback. If the EMA light is red and price breaks below the BC (Bottom Central Pivot), short positions could be considered.
4. Stocks Trading:
Long Position Strategy: For stocks, use the combination of the long position light turning green (price above TC and EMA alignment) as a signal to buy. This could be especially useful for riding bullish trends in growth stocks or during earnings seasons when volatility is high.
Short Position Strategy: If the short position light turns green, indicating price below BC and EMAs turning bearish, this could be an ideal setup for shorting overvalued stocks or during market corrections.
5. Options Trading:
Directional Bias for Options: The light system is particularly helpful for options traders. A green long position light provides a clear signal to buy call options, while a green short position light supports buying puts.
Pivot Breakout Strategy: Buy options (calls or puts) when the price breaks above resistance or below support, with confirmation from the CPR and EMA lights. This helps capture the sharp moves required for profitable options trades.
Conclusion
The S&R Precision Cloud script is a versatile tool for traders across markets, including Forex, Bitcoin, Commodities, Stocks, and Options. It combines critical technical elements like pivot ranges, support and resistance levels, EMAs, and the Lagging Span to provide a clear picture of market conditions. The intuitive light system helps traders quickly assess whether to take a long or short position, making it an excellent tool for both new and experienced traders.

Thrax - Intraday Market Pressure ZonesTHRAX - INTRADAY MARKET PRESSURE ZONES
This indicator identifies potential support and resistance zones based on areas of significant market pressure. It dynamically plots these zones and adjusts their visibility based on real-time price action and user-defined thresholds. The indicator is useful for traders seeking to understand intraday market pressure, visualize zones of potential price reversals, and analyze volume imbalances at critical levels.
1. Support/Resistance Zones: Wherever the price retraces significantly from its high a support zone is drawn and when it retraces significantly from it low a resistance zone is drawn. The significant retracing is measured by the wick threshold percentage. For instance, if set to 75%, it implies price retracement of 75% either from high or from low for a particular candel
Volume delat: Displays volume delta information where the zones are formed. This can be used by trader to consider only those zones where delta is significant.
2. Breakout Detection: Monitors for price breakouts beyond established zones, deleting zones that are invalidated by price movement. when the price breaks a given zone with the threshold, it is considered to be mitigated and chances of trend continuation is decent.
Candle Coloring: Uses color codes (green, red, and yellow) to represent bullish, bearish, and indecisive (doji) candles, aiding quick visual assessment.
INPUTS
1. Wick Threshold (%) : Sets the minimum wick percentage required for a candle to be considered a support or resistance candidate.
2. Breakout Threshold (%) : Determines the percentage above or below a support or resistance zone that defines a breakout condition. if breaks a zone with the set threshold then the zone will be considered mititgated.
3. Max Number of Support/Resistance Zones : Limits the maximum number of support/resistance zones displayed on the chart, ranging from 1 to 5.
4. Show Wick Percentage Labels : Toggles the display of percentage values for upper and lower wicks on each candle.
TRADE SETUP
Identifying Entry Points: Look for the formation of support or resistance zones. Wait for price to retrace to these zones. if you are willing to take risk, you can consider even zones with low delta. If you want to be more cautious you should consider zones with high delta.
Volume Confirmation: Use the volume information to confirm the strength of the zone. Strong volume differences (displayed as labels) can indicate significant market pressure at these levels.
Breakout Trades: If price breaks through a support/resistance zone by more than the breakout threshold, consider this a signal for a potential trend continuation in the breakout direction.
Risk Management: Set stop-loss levels slightly outside of the identified zones to minimize risk in case of false breakouts. This can be set in input setting for breakout threshold.
Bonus Tip : Mark your significant highs and lows from where prices have retraced multiple times in the near past and if the zone is near these levels it can serve s a strong candidate of support or resistance
Therefore, in conclusion monitor the zones, based on delta and volume presence filter out the zone, wait for price retracement to the zone, intiate the trade with stop loss below zone with a set percentage.

█ Detailed Feature Explanations:
--------------🤖 ApexAlphaClouds --------------
How the Tool Can Help Traders
The `ApexAlphaClouds` indicator is designed to assist traders by identifying dynamic price ranges where the market tends to consolidate, which are critical for making informed trading decisions. The tool uses an ML algorithm to analyze high-price data over a set period and determines key levels on the chart, which are visualized as "clouds." These clouds represent potential support and resistance areas, where price action is likely to pause, reverse, or experience increased volatility.
The primary benefit for traders is the ability to identify these key zones in real-time, allowing them to anticipate potential market movements and plan trades accordingly. For example, if a trader sees that price is approaching a cloud boundary, they might expect a reversal or a breakout, depending on the broader market context. This can be particularly useful in range-bound markets or when looking for potential entry and exit points in trending markets.
How Traders Can Use the Indicator
Identifying Support and Resistance:
The clouds plotted by the `ApexAlphaClouds` indicator can be used to identify dynamic support and resistance levels. Traders can watch how the price reacts when it enters these clouds. If the price bounces off a lower cloud, it may suggest support, while a rejection from an upper could indicate resistance.
Trend Reversals and Continuations:
The indicator's middle cloud can help identify potential trend reversals. If price moves through the middle cloud and continues in the same direction, it could indicate a trend continuation. Conversely, if price reverses within the middle cloud, it might signal a potential trend reversal.
Volatility and Breakouts:
The distance between the upper and lower clouds can give traders an idea of market volatility. Narrow clouds suggest low volatility, which may precede a breakout, while wide clouds indicate higher volatility, where prices might oscillate within the range.
Settings Input and Their Effects
’ApexAlphaClouds` (Toggle) -This setting allows the trader to enable or disable the `ApexAlphaClouds` indicator on their chart.
Effect: When enabled, the clouds representing dynamic price ranges will be displayed on the chart. Disabling this will hide the indicator’s outputs.
Target Area Size - This setting determines the number of bars (length) the algorithm considers when collecting high prices for clustering.
Effect: A larger value will make the indicator consider a broader historical range, potentially smoothing out the clouds and identifying longer-term price ranges. A smaller value will focus on more recent price action, which might be useful for short-term trading strategies.
Accuracy - This setting specifies the number of groups that the algorithm will try to identify within the selected data range.
Effect: A higher value increases the number of identified clusters, making the indicator more sensitive to minor fluctuations in price. This can be useful for traders looking to identify multiple potential reversal points. A lower value will focus on the most prominent price clusters, which may be more relevant for long-term analysis.
Maximum Calibration - This setting controls the maximum number of iterations the machine learning algorithm will perform to find the optimal clusters.
Effect: Increasing allows the algorithm more time to refine the clusters, potentially leading to more accurate and stable clouds. However, it may also increase the computation time. Decreasing this value may speed up the process but could result in less accurate clustering.
Wide Range Calibration - This setting determines the maximum number of bars the algorithm will consider when applying the clustering.
Effect: A larger value allows the algorithm to analyse a wider range of historical data, which can help identify significant long-term price ranges. A smaller value will limit the analysis to more recent data, which might be preferable for traders focused on short-term movements.
Smoothing Factor - This setting applies a smoothing function to the clouds, reducing noise and making the price ranges more visually consistent.
Effect :A higher smoothing factor will produce smoother, more consistent clouds, which might be beneficial in volatile markets to avoid false signals. A lower smoothing factor will make the clouds more responsive to recent price changes, which could be useful for scalping or short-term trading strategies.
Usage Scenarios
Scalping:
Traders using short-term strategies might set Accuracy to a smaller value and reduce the Smoothing Factor to make the clouds more responsive to recent price action. This helps in identifying quick reversal points.
Swing Trading:
Swing traders could use a larger Target Area Size and increase Accuracy to identify key price ranges that have held over longer periods. Adjusting Wide Range Calibration to a higher value allows them to consider broader historical trends.
Trend Following:
By observing how price interacts with the clouds, trend-following traders can look for breakouts or breakdowns from the clouds to confirm entry points in the direction of the trend.
Volatility Management:
Traders can monitor the width of the clouds to gauge market volatility and adjust their strategies accordingly, tightening stops in narrow cloud ranges or widening them in broader ranges.
Conclusion
The `ApexAlphaClouds` indicator is a powerful tool for traders looking to analyze price action with a focus on dynamic price ranges. By understanding and utilizing the settings, traders can customize the indicator to fit their specific trading strategies, whether they are scalping, swing trading, or trend following. The key is to adjust the inputs based on the market context and trading goals, using the clouds as a visual guide to anticipate market movements and make informed decisions.
--------------🔢 Matrix Algo --------------
Matrix Algo is a multi-timeframe (MTF) tool designed to provide traders with a comprehensive view of market conditions across different timeframes using a combination of popular technical indicators. The indicator aggregates data from RSI, MACD, and Bollinger Bands across multiple timeframes, presenting this information in a matrix format to help traders make informed decisions based on a complete market overview. This allows traders to quickly assess the overall market sentiment and trend direction without having to manually check each indicator on different timeframes. By offering a bird’s-eye view of the market conditions.
How Traders Can Use Matrix Algo?
Identify Trends and Reversals: By analysing the matrix, traders can identify whether the market is bullish, bearish, or in consolidation across different timeframes.
Confirm Signals: The Matrix Algo can confirm signals from other trading strategies by providing additional context from multiple indicators across several timeframes.
Settings:
Toggle individual timeframes - (Monthly, Weekly, 3D, Daily, 4h, etc.) to include or exclude from the matrix.
Effect: The matrix displays whether the market conditions are favorable (green) or unfavorable (red) for each indicator and timeframe combination. This color-coded information helps traders quickly assess the market situation.
--------------🎯 CandleSniper --------------
Overview:
The CandleSniper indicator is designed to identify potential turning points in the market by combining various technical analysis tools. It leverages a combination of the MACD indicator, advanced phase analysis technique, and Fibonacci levels to highlight moments where price action may be reversing. This helps traders spot divergence opportunities and set potential target levels.
Explanation
MACD Divergence with Phase Analysis:
The indicator leverages the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) to identify divergences, which can indicate potential reversal points in the market. The MACD is computed using standard short and long lengths, along with a signal line.
An advanced phase analysis technique is employed to measure the difference between price and its moving averages, enabling the identification of cyclical turning points in the market
A potential bullish decision point is identified when the MACD line crosses above the signal line during a cyclical turning point. Conversely, a potential bearish decision point is identified when the MACD line crosses below the signal line during a cyclical turning point.
Fibonacci Levels for Targeting:
The indicator calculates Fibonacci extension levels based on recent price swings to provide target levels for potential price movements.
For a bullish setup, the indicator identifies levels above the current price as potential targets, while for a bearish setup, it identifies levels below the current price.
Fib Filter Line:
The Fib Filter Line is represented in purple for bullish turning points and white for bearish turning points. These lines serve as additional filters to help traders identify stronger, more reliable turning points in the market. Designed for those who prefer a more conservative approach, the Fib Filter Line offers an extra layer of confirmation based on price movements, allowing traders to filter out weaker signals and focus on more significant market shifts.
Inputs and Settings:
lookbackPeriod: Defines the period over which the indicator looks back to calculate the Fibonacci levels. Adjusting this setting can change the sensitivity of the decision points.
Dimmer and DimmerPeriod: These settings control the smoothing applied to the price data before the phase calculation. They help in reducing noise and ensuring that only significant price movements are considered for decision points.
How to Use:
Traders can use the CandleSniper indicator to identify potential decision points by observing the color changes on the bars and the plotted Fibonacci levels:
🟢 Bullish Decision Points:
When the indicator detects a bullish divergence, it highlights the bars in purple and plots potential upward Fibonacci levels as targets.
🔴 Bearish Decision Points:
When a bearish divergence is detected, the indicator highlights the bars in white and plots downward Fibonacci levels as targets.
These decision points can help traders identify when the market might be ready for a reversal or continuation or even use as a start point from where the trader can start his own analysis
Combining with Other Tools
The CandleSniper indicator can be combined with other OnChart tools to create a comprehensive trading framework:
🔢 Matrix Algo:
Use Matrix Algo to assess the overall market sentiment across multiple timeframes, then apply CandleSniper for pinpointing specific entry or exit points.
🤖 ApexAlphaClouds:
Overlay ApexAlphaClouds to visualise dynamic price ranges, using CandleSniper to identify decision points within these ranges.
This combination allows traders to develop a robust trading strategy that considers broader market trends and specific price action signal intuition.
--------------🧲 MagnetZone Horizon --------------
Overview:
The MagnetZone Horizon indicator is a specialized tool designed to identify potential gaps between two significant changes in the Average True Range (ATR). These gaps, calculated dynamically, serve as areas where the price might react, often acting as smart Fair Value Gaps (FVG). By highlighting these zones, traders can gain insights into where the market might find support, resistance, or potential reversal points.
How Traders Can Use This Indicator:
Identifying Smart Fair Value Gaps:
The MagnetZone Horizon indicator helps traders locate gaps between ATR shifts that are likely to act as significant decision points. These gaps can indicate areas where price corrections or consolidations might occur, providing opportunities for strategic entries or exits.
Adaptive Support and Resistance:
The levels calculated by the indicator adjust according to market volatility, offering dynamic support and resistance zones. These zones are particularly useful in identifying potential reversals or continuation patterns.
Volatility-Based Trading:
Since the indicator bases its calculations on ATR, it inherently adjusts to market conditions, allowing traders to align their strategies with the current level of volatility. This adaptability makes it suitable for both trending and range-bound markets.
Settings and Their Impact:
MagnetZone Horizon (Enable/Disable): This toggle allows traders to activate or deactivate the visualization of the MagnetZone Horizon on their charts.
Factor: This setting multiplies the ATR to scale the detected gaps. A higher factor results in broader zones, which might capture more significant market movements, while a lower factor creates tighter zones for more precise analysis.
Factor=5
Factor=7
Division: This setting works in conjunction with the Factor to further refine the gap calculations. Adjusting the Division setting allows traders to fine-tune how sensitive the indicator is to ATR changes, which can help in pinpointing more precise smart FVGs.
Use Cases:
Gap Trading:
Traders can use the identified gaps as potential areas to enter or exit trades, particularly if the price approaches these smart FVGs. The idea is to capitalize on the likelihood that the market will react to these gaps.
Reversal Identification:
The zones marked by the MagnetZone Horizon can indicate potential reversal points, especially in volatile markets where significant ATR changes suggest a shift in market sentiment.
Trend Continuation or Rejection:
By monitoring how the price interacts with these dynamically calculated zones, traders can assess whether a trend is likely to continue or reverse, aiding in more informed trading decisions.
The MagnetZone Horizon indicator is particularly useful for traders looking to identify significant gaps in market activity that are influenced by volatility. These smart FVGs provide a deeper understanding of where the market might react, offering a valuable tool for enhancing trading strategies and adds another strategic piece to the puzzle in the OnChart Suite.
