Trend is your friendThis indicator evaluates the trend based on crosses of two McGinley moving averages. It paints candles accordingly (it does not repaint), so you can see what the indicator is saying more clearly and stay in your trade until you see a period of consolidation or a reversal. You can control how far away those moving averages need to be for you to consider it a trend. If this distance is not met candles color is not changed and it shows you that the market is in a period of consolidation. I also added visualization of RSI, so you can have an easier time finding appropriate profit targets. For stop loss I would recommend placing it a couple points above or below the previous high / low that is located above / below you final target for entry. You can also use a certain percentage that works for you. I tried adding a stop loss based on ATR, but I did not like the results. Using market structure is a better choice in my opinion.
Here is a basic trading strategy for the default settings:
Wait for the indicator to start printing a series of green or red candles. After that you can enter a long or a short around moving averages. Another valid place to entry is the specific RSI zone. If we are in an uptrend buying when RSI is oversold can be beneficial as you expect market to recover. I do not recommend changing RSI from 14. Vice versa for the downtrend. It gives you an edge as you know at what price RSI will be oversold and allows you to place trades in advance. Pretty neat! You need to realize that no indicator or strategy can give you an exact entry. There will always be some margin of error. What I wanted to say is that if there is a strong trend up and you buy around your key moving averages and when RSI is oversold you entered in good places and there is a pretty good chance you will make money.
Time frame settings:
If you want to use tighter stop losses I would recommend sticking to 15m. Do not go lower. It is not worth the stress. 1h and 4h seems to be very good as well, but expect your stop losses to be wider. What I personally tend to do is display 15m, 30m and 1h and compare it. Think of it as a short, mid and long term. That way you can see things little bit better.
Examples:
1H chart BTC
4h chart EUR / USD
1D chart NASDAQ
15m chart BTC (Daytrading)
That last chart shows that even if you were longing while the trend was about to change you still had a good chance to close it with a little profit and switch to short easily. The default settings is what has worked the best for me. Feel free to change them as you see fit and do not forget to let me know if you find something that works better :)
Notes:
Either disable wick display or change it to a neutral color like gray for both green and red candles. Unfortunately pine script does not allow wick painting, so if you have red / green wicks it will look terrible. If RSI visualization makes your candles look too small you can go to settings and disable the display of individual RSI levels. You will still be able to see the zones, but the scale won't be affected.
UCS_Squeeze_Timing-V1There is an important information the Squeeze indicator is missing, which is the Pre Squeeze entry. While the Bollinger band begins to curves out of the KC, The breakout usually happens. There are many instances that the Squeeze indicator will fire, after the Major move, I cant blame the indicator, thats the nature (lagging) of all indicators, and we have to live with it.
Therefore pre-squeeze-fire Entry can be critical in timing your entry. Timing it too early could result in stoploss if it turns against you, ( or serious burn on options premium), because we never know when the squeeze will fire with the TTM squeeze, But now We know. Its a little timing tool. Managing position is critical when playing options.
I will code the timing signal when I get some time.

WMTSTRATEGY - SMC and EMA9 EMA: An indicator for short-term momentum
The 9-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a line on a price chart that tracks the average price over the last nine periods, giving more weight to the most recent data. This makes it more responsive to new price changes than a Simple Moving Average (SMA), which weights all periods equally.
How it's used:
Identifies short-term trends: When the price stays consistently above the 9 EMA, it suggests an uptrend. When it stays below, it suggests a downtrend.
Provides dynamic support and resistance: In an uptrend, the price often bounces off the 9 EMA, which acts as a support level. In a downtrend, it acts as resistance.
Generates buy and sell signals: Traders may use price crossing above the 9 EMA as a potential buy signal, and crossing below as a potential sell signal.
SMC: A methodology for institutional analysis
Smart Money Concepts (SMC) is a price action-based trading methodology focused on identifying where institutional "smart money" is entering and exiting the market. It relies on concepts like market structure, order blocks, liquidity grabs, and imbalances to predict market direction, in contrast to traditional retail trading methods.
Key concepts within SMC:
Order Blocks: These are specific candle formations that signify institutional accumulation or distribution and are considered high-probability reversal or continuation zones.
Liquidity Grabs (or Sweeps): The process where institutional traders push the price past a clear high or low to trigger retail traders' stop-loss orders and enter their own positions in the opposite direction.
Market Structure: Analyzing the sequence of higher highs/higher lows (for an uptrend) or lower lows/lower highs (for a downtrend) to determine the overall market direction.
The synergy of 9 EMA and SMC
By combining the 9 EMA with SMC, traders can filter out low-quality signals and improve the precision of their entries and exits.
Strategy example:
Identify the SMC zone: Use SMC analysis to identify a high-probability demand zone (for a long trade) or supply zone (for a short trade). This zone acts as your area of interest for a potential entry.
Wait for price to enter the zone: Wait for the price to retrace into your identified SMC zone.
Confirm the signal with the 9 EMA: On a lower timeframe, wait for the price to cross and close above the 9 EMA (in a demand zone) or below the 9 EMA (in a supply zone). This cross serves as a precise entry trigger, confirming that short-term momentum is shifting in your favor within the high-probability institutional zone.
How this combination adds value:
Filters false signals: SMC helps avoid trading every 9 EMA crossover by only focusing on those that occur within a high-probability institutional zone.
Improves timing: The 9 EMA provides a sensitive entry trigger, preventing premature entries and getting you into a trade as momentum confirms the SMC-identified area of interest.
Boosts confidence: Entering a trade where both institutional footprints (SMC) and short-term momentum (9 EMA) align provides a higher-conviction setup.
Probability Score Momentum UP/DOWN signalsProbability Score Momentum is an advanced multi-factor trading indicator that combines institutional-grade filters with probability scoring to identify high-conviction trade opportunities. This indicator goes beyond simple moving average crossovers by validating signals through multiple momentum confirmations, trend alignment, and context-aware market structure analysis.
Each signal is automatically rated:
EXCELLENT (75-100) - All conditions aligned, highest probability
GOOD (62-74) - Strong setup with trend confirmation
MARGINAL (62+) - Meets threshold but lacks trend alignment
POOR (<62) - Below probability threshold (no signal shown)
Alert Setup
The indicator includes 4 pre-configured alert conditions:
🚀 LONG Signal - High-probability long entry
🔻 SHORT Signal - High-probability short entry
⬆️ MT Flip Up - Madrid Trend flips bullish (early warning)

Diablo Flow v6 (stable build)⚙️ 1️⃣ Add It to Your Chart
Copy the final Pine script → go to TradingView → Pine Editor → New → Paste → Save → Add to Chart.
Make sure you’re on a 5m, 15m, or 1H chart (for day or swing trading).
You’ll see:
Green bars / background = bullish trend
Red bars / background = bearish trend
“BUY” or “SELL” labels when all internal conditions align
🔍 2️⃣ Understand What Each Component Means
Visual Meaning
Green bars / lime background Bullish trend confirmed (EMA & Supertrend aligned)
Red bars / red background Bearish trend confirmed
Gray / neutral No clear momentum (avoid trades)
BUY / SELL labels Signal when trend + RSI + MACD + Volume all confirm
EMA Fast (Teal) Short-term momentum line
EMA Slow (Orange) Trend direction filter
Supertrend Line (Green/Red) Dynamic support/resistance
🎯 3️⃣ Trading Rules
Entry Setup
✅ BUY (Long)
A “BUY” label appears
Bars are green
Price is above the fast EMA
RSI is > 50
MACD histogram > 0
Volume spike confirmed (relative to recent average)
🔴 SELL (Short)
A “SELL” label appears
Bars are red
Price is below fast EMA
RSI is < 50
MACD histogram < 0
Volume spike confirmed
Entry Timing
After a signal appears:
Wait for candle close to confirm it (don’t enter mid-candle).
On next candle, enter in same direction.
Optional confirmation: use VWAP or Volume Profile:
Only buy if price is above VWAP.
Only short if below VWAP.
Stop-Loss & Take-Profit
💥 Conservative setup (Intraday):
Stop-Loss: below previous swing low (for long) / above swing high (for short).
TP1: 1× ATR (average true range).
TP2: 2× ATR or next resistance/support level.
💥 Aggressive setup (Scalping):
Stop = below last green bar (for long) or above last red bar (for short).
Exit on opposite “SELL”/“BUY” signal.
🧩 4️⃣ Filters to Avoid False Signals
Use higher-timeframe confirmation:
If trading 5m → confirm 15m trend direction.
If trading 15m → confirm 1H trend direction.
Only trade signals in the direction of higher TF trend.
📊 5️⃣ Backtest / Optimize
Open TradingView’s “Strategy Tester” tab (you can ask me for a strategy version next).
Tune these parameters:
EMA Fast/Slow (try 10/30 or 20/50)
ATR Mult (2.0–3.0)
Vol Mult (1.2–2.0)
RSI Bull/Bear thresholds (55/45 for stronger filters)
🧠 6️⃣ Psychology of the System
It’s a trend-following + momentum confirmation system.
Works best in volatile, directional sessions (NY, London, or US futures open).
Avoid using it in flat, low-volume premarket conditions.
🪄 Example: ES / NQ Futures
Timeframe: 5m
Setup: “BUY” label at 9:45 ET with strong volume, background lime.
Entry: Long next candle close.
Exit: Opposite “SELL” label or +10 pts (whichever first).
Stop: Below last red candle.
✅ Summary of Workflow
Step What to Do
1 Wait for BUY/SELL label + bar color confirmation
2 Confirm with VWAP or higher timeframe
3 Enter on next candle close
4 Place stop beyond Supertrend/ATR
5 Take profit at 1×–2× ATR or opposite signal
TTM Squeeze Range Lines (with Forward Extension) By Gautam KumarThis TTM Squeeze Range Lines script helps visualize breakout levels by marking the recent squeeze’s high and low, making it easier to identify potential trade setups. Each signal line is extended for visibility, showing possible entry levels after a squeeze.
Interpreting the LinesLight blue background marks periods when the TTM squeeze is active (tight volatility).
Green line is drawn at the highest price during the squeeze, extended forward—this is commonly used as the breakout level for long entries.
Red line shows the lowest price during the squeeze, indicating the bottom of the range—potential stop loss positioning or an invalidation level.
When the squeeze background disappears, the horizontal lines will have just appeared and extended forward for several bars after the squeeze ends.
If the price breaks above the green line (the squeeze high), it signals a possible momentum breakout, which traders often use as a long entry.
The red line can be used for placing stop losses or monitoring failed breakouts if price falls below this level.
Best Practices
Combine these levels with volume and momentum confirmation for strong entries.
Adjust the extension length (number of bars forward) from the settings menu to fit your preference.
For systematic trading, use these breakout signals alongside chart pattern or histogram confirmation.
This makes it easy to visualize strong entry zones based on the end of squeeze compression, supporting both discretionary and automated swing trading approaches
Market Bias (CEREBR)Market Bias (CEREBR) — quick read of who’s in control
What it does, in one line:
It builds a clean, smoothed Heikin-Ashi view (optionally from a higher timeframe) and an oscillator that says: bullish, bearish, or cooling off. You use it to decide directional bias and to avoid trading against that bias.
What you see on the chart
Smoothed HA candles (optional): green = bullish bias, red = bearish bias.
A soft fill band around the HA body:
Brighter = bias is strengthening.
Faded = bias is weakening.
(In Data Window) “Bias High / Low / Average” = the smoothed HA range and midline.
If you only look at one thing: green means look for longs, red means look for shorts. Faded color = be picky or trim.
How to use it (simple playbook)
Pick your higher timeframe (HTF) for the bias.
On a 4H chart, try HTF = 12H or 1D.
Rule: HTF must be equal to or higher than your chart TF.
Trade with the bias at real levels.
Longs only when the bias is green.
Shorts only when the bias is red.
Take entries at location: Volume Profile v3.2 levels (VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs) or Anchored VWAP.
Quality check (optional but strong):
Before clicking, glance at CVDv1.
Green bias + CVD Alignment OK and no Absorption = better odds.
If CVD shows Absorption against you, skip or wait for a retest.
When to pass:
Color flips every other bar (chop) → do less.
Color is fading (weakening) into your entry → size down or wait.
Timeframe guidance
Scalps (1–5m): HTF = 15m/30m. Use bias to filter direction; enter on pullbacks at AVWAP/VA edges.
Intraday (15m–1H): HTF = 4H. Buy dips in green / sell pops in red at VP levels.
Swing (2H–4H): HTF = 12H/1D. First pullback after a fresh flip is usually the best.
Position (1D–1W): HTF = 1W. Hold while color stays consistent; reduce on weakening near HVNs.
Entries, exits, and stops
Entry with trend:
Bias green, price pulls back to AVWAP / VAL / prior HA mid, then holds.
Click the long. Reverse for shorts in red.
Exit / reduce:
When “Trend Weakens” alert fires, or color fades while hitting your POC/HVN target.
Hard exit on opposite flip (green→red or red→green) if your idea was pure trend-follow.
Stops:
Behind structure/level (not just on color).
If the next bar flips bias against you and CVD also disagrees, cut it early.
Inputs that matter (keep these simple)
Timeframe (HA Market Bias): your HTF. Must be ≥ chart TF.
Period (default 100): smoothing for the base OHLC. Higher = steadier.
Smoothing (default 100): extra smoothing for the HA feed. Higher = fewer flips.
Oscillator Period (default 7): affects how fast strengthening/weakening shows in the fill color. Lower = quicker.
Tip: If you see too many flips, raise Period/Smoothing or pick a higher HTF. If it feels slow, lower them one notch.
Alerts (plain meaning)
Bullish Trend Switch: bias turned bearish → bullish.
Bullish Trend Strengthens / Weakens: same direction, momentum building / cooling.
Bearish Trend Switch: bullish → bearish.
Bearish Trend Strengthens / Weakens: same idea for shorts.
Use “Switch” to prepare for new setups; use “Strengthens/Weakens” to add/trim or tighten risk.
How it works (one paragraph, no math)
The script smooths price, builds Heikin-Ashi values on your chosen HTF, smooths those again, and doesn’t repaint on closed bars. From the HA open/close difference it creates a simple bias oscillator: above zero = bullish, below zero = bearish. The fill brightness tells you if that bias is getting stronger or weaker right now.
Good combos (optional, but recommended)
Volume Profile v3.2 : use VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs as your battleground.
Anchored VWAP : use reclaims/rejections for timing.
CVDv1 : sanity-check flow quality before entry.
FAQ (quick)
Does it repaint?
No on closed bars. HTF values are requested with a safe offset.
Best starting setup?
4H chart, HTF = 1D, Period/Smoothing 100/100, Oscillator 7.
Can I hide the HA candles?
Yes—toggle “Show HA Candles.” Keep only the bias fill if you want a cleaner price chart.

Directional Indicator Crossovers [JopAlgo]Directional Indicator Crossovers — read trend intent at a glance, on any timeframe
Most traders ask two questions before they click: who’s in control right now and is control getting stronger or weaker?
The Directional Indicator (DI) answers the first one cleanly. +DI tracks upward directional movement; –DI tracks downward directional movement. When +DI crosses above –DI, buyers have the initiative; when –DI crosses above +DI, sellers do. DI Xover focuses on that simple, tradeable signal—the crossover—and keeps the pane uncluttered so you can layer it with your location/flow tools.
(If you add screenshots: image #1 can label +DI, –DI and a bullish crossover; image #2 can show a failed crossover in chop next to a successful one at a strong level.)
What you’re seeing (and how it’s built)
This indicator plots two lines in a separate pane:
+DI (green): smoothed positive directional movement.
–DI (red): smoothed negative directional movement.
Under the hood (length = 14 by default):
It measures how much today’s high exceeded yesterday’s high (up move) and how much today’s low fell below yesterday’s low (down move).
It keeps only the dominant side each bar (if up > down and up > 0 → up counts; vice-versa for down).
It normalizes by True Range (so moves are scaled by volatility) and smooths with RMA (so you don’t get jitter).
It raises alerts when +DI crosses above –DI (bullish) or –DI crosses above +DI (bearish).
How to read it, fast:
Cross up = buyers just took initiative.
Cross down = sellers just took initiative.
Wider distance between the lines = stronger control.
Lines braided/tight = balance/chop → expect more fake crosses.
DI is about directional control. It doesn’t tell you where to trade—that’s your location (e.g., Volume Profile, AVWAP). Use DI as a timing/confirmation layer, not as a standalone level generator.
Using DI Crossovers on any timeframe
The framework doesn’t change; only your expectations do as you zoom.
Scalping (1–5m)
Treat crossovers as triggers at levels. If price is tagging VAL/VAH/LVN (from Volume Profile v3.2) or Anchored VWAP, a fresh +DI cross up is your green light for a quick long; –DI cross up flips that logic for shorts.
Avoid taking every crossover mid-range—wait for location first.
In fast tape, require the lines to separate for 1–2 bars after the cross before you click.
Intraday (15m–1H)
In trend days, the first pullback into your level (POC/VA boundary/AVWAP) that prints a fresh +DI cross up is often the cleanest add/entry.
In balance days, fade DI crosses at edges back to POC—only if your flow tool isn’t screaming absorption against you.
Swing (2H–4H)
Look for confluence: at Weekly AVWAP or composite VAL/VAH, a DI crossover that stays separated for several bars is a solid momentum confirmation.
Failed crossover (lines recross quickly) near a level is a useful fail signal—expect a move back into value.
Position (1D–1W)
Use fewer, bigger signals: a weekly DI cross at Monthly/Quarterly AVWAP or at composite value edges marks a regime change.
Add on pullbacks when the controlling DI stays dominant (distance holds or widens).
Entries, exits, and risk (simple rules)
Entry (with level): wait for price to reach your level (e.g., VAL/VAH or AVWAP), then take the trade with the DI cross in that direction.
Filter: skip crosses when the two lines are braided (tiny separation) unless you’re trading a tight scalp with strict risk.
Exit / reduce: if your trade was based on a bullish cross, consider reducing when –DI recaptures +DI or the lines flatten at your target HVN/POC.
Stops: put them beyond the level (not just on a DI recross), but treat a fast recross as a warning to tighten.
Settings that actually matter (and how to tune them)
DI Length (default 14):
Shorter (7–10) = faster signals, more noise (good for scalps with filters).
Longer (20–30) = fewer but stronger signals (good for swing/position).
If you often see flip-flops, lengthen the setting or take crosses only at VP/AVWAP levels.
Pro tip: Define a minimum separation rule for yourself (e.g., after a cross, require the gap between +DI and –DI to increase on the next bar). You don’t need extra code for this—just enforce it visually.
What to look for (pattern cheatsheet)
Cross + hold at a level: The lines cross at your level and keep separating → high-quality entry in that direction.
Sneaky fail: Cross, then immediate recross back → treat it as a fade signal back into value (especially near VAH/VAL).
Strength confirmation: After a breakout, +DI stays above –DI on pullbacks → trend is healthy; buy dips at AVWAP/POC.
Pre-move tell: DI lines unbraid and begin diverging before price leaves a range; wait for location + trigger.
Combining DI Xover with other tools
Cumulative Volume Delta v1 (CVDv1):
Use DI for direction, and CVDv1 for quality. A bullish DI cross with ALIGN OK + Imbalance strong + no Absorption is a far better long than DI alone.
If DI crosses up but CVDv1 flags Absorption (red), don’t chase—look for the fail/reclaim instead.
Volume Profile v3.2 :
Let VP choose the battleground (POC/VAH/VAL/LVNs). Take the DI crossover at those references.
Classic: bearish DI cross at VAH → fade toward POC; bullish DI cross at VAL → rotate to POC—assuming CVDv1 isn’t vetoing with Absorption.
Anchored VWAP :
Treat reclaims/rejections of AVWAP as the location and DI cross as the trigger.
Example: price reclaims Weekly AVWAP, then on the next pullback, a +DI cross up confirms the add.
Common pitfalls this helps you avoid
Trading crosses in the middle of nowhere. DI is a trigger, not a level; wait for VP/AVWAP.
Chasing every wiggle. When the lines are braided, you’re likely in balance—expect fake crosses.
Ignoring flow. A DI cross against CVDv1 Absorption is often a trap; quality > quantity.
Practical defaults to start with
Length: 14
Timeframes: Works out of the box on 15m–4H. For 1–5m scalps try 10–12; for daily/weekly swings try 20–30.
Process: Only act on crosses at levels (VP v3.2 / Anchored VWAP), and prefer those where CVDv1 says ALIGN OK and no Absorption.
Alerts (what they tell you)
Bullish DI Crossover: +DI crossed above –DI → buyers just took initiative. Look to your chart for location and CVDv1 quality before entering.
Bearish DI Crossover: –DI crossed above +DI → sellers took initiative. Same rule: confirm at a level with flow.

⚙️ Step 2 – Indicator Settings (scalping mode)
Resistance lookback: 15
Volume confirmation: ON, multiplier = 1.2–1.3 (lighter requirement, more signals).
RSI filter: ON, threshold = 55 (looser than intraday swing).
MACD filter: ON
HTF filter: ON → timeframe = 15m, EMA = 50 (so trades align with short-term trend).
Retest check: ON (safer signals).
ATR stop/targets: ON → ATR length 14, Stop = 1.0×ATR, T1 = 0.7×ATR, T2 = 1.4×ATR.
Visuals: Stealth Mode ON (just arrows + compact label).
🎯 Step 3 – Entry Rules
Wait for a green breakout arrow under a 5m bar.
Confirm conditions:
Price is above VWAP.
EMA 9 > EMA 20 (micro trend bullish).
Optional: RSI > 55 and volume above SMA×1.2.
Enter at close of breakout bar.
Aggressive: enter right on arrow.
Conservative: enter only if teal retest dot confirms.
🛡️ Step 4 – Risk/Exit Plan
Stop loss: red ATR line (~1×ATR below entry).
Target 1 (T1): yellow ATR line (~0.7×ATR above entry).
Target 2 (T2): green ATR line (~1.4×ATR above entry).
Management:
Sell 70% at T1, move stop to entry.
Let 30% run to T2 or trail with EMA 9.
🔔 Step 5 – Alerts
Set TradingView alerts for:
Bullish Breakout (green arrow)
Breakout Retest Confirmed (teal dot)
So you don’t miss quick setups during the session.
⚡ Extra Scalping Tips
Focus on liquid tickers (ORCL, MSFT, AAPL, NVDA, etc.) — tight spreads, good volume.
Trade first 2–3 hours after market open for best volatility.
Avoid scalping right before big news (FOMC, earnings).
Don’t overstay: average 10–30 minutes per trade.

Rejection Zones with FVG ConfirmationOverview
This indicator is designed to identify high-probability Rejection Zones by detecting a specific and powerful price action pattern. The core logic combines the concepts of price rejection , indicated by overlapping wicks, with a Fair Value Gap (FVG) that confirms a strong market imbalance.
These zones are automatically drawn on your chart and can serve as critical levels of potential support (demand) or resistance (supply) for future price movements. The indicator is fully equipped with multi-timeframe (MTF) capabilities, advanced zone management, and customizable alerts to enhance your trading analysis.
Key Features
Dual Timeframe Analysis : Simultaneously displays Rejection Zones from your current timeframe (CTF) and a selected higher timeframe (HTF). HTF zones often represent more significant price levels.
Advanced Zone Management : Zones are dynamically tracked and their status updates as price interacts with them (e.g., Touch, Covered). You can define conditions for when a zone should be considered invalid.
Smart Overlap Handling : Choose how to handle overlapping zones. Either Replace the old zone with the new one or Keep Both to see all areas of interest.
Performance Optimization : Includes an option to Calculate on Visible Range Only, which significantly improves script performance on charts with extensive historical data.
Customizable Alerts : Set up alerts for when a new Rejection Zone is created or when price touches an existing zone, for both CTF and HTF.
Full Visual Customization : Easily customize the colors of Bullish and Bearish zones for both timeframes to match your chart's theme.
How The Logic Works
A Rejection Zone is identified based on a sequence of candlestick patterns:
Bullish Rejection Zone (Potential Demand) :
- Imbalance Confirmation : A bullish Fair Value Gap (FVG) is detected, meaning the high of the candle two bars ago (high ) is lower than the current candle's low (low ).
- Price Rejection : The script then checks if the lower wicks of the two candles preceding the FVG (bar and bar ) overlap. This overlap signifies a concentrated area where price was aggressively rejected.
- Zone Creation : If both conditions are met, a Bullish Rejection Zone is drawn covering the area of the combined rejection wicks.
Bearish Rejection Zone (Potential Supply) :
Imbalance Confirmation: A bearish FVG is detected (the low of bar is higher than the current high ).
Price Rejection: The script checks for overlapping upper wicks on bar and bar .
Zone Creation: A Bearish Rejection Zone is drawn on the area of the combined upper wicks.
How to Use
Identify Key Levels : Use these zones as you would with traditional support/resistance or supply/demand zones. They represent areas where a significant market reaction previously occurred.
Entry Triggers : Look for price to return to a zone and show signs of reaction (e.g., reversal candlestick patterns, shift in market structure on a lower timeframe) before considering an entry.
Higher Timeframe Confluence : Pay close attention to the HTF zones. A reaction from an HTF zone is generally more significant than one from a CTF zone. When a CTF zone forms within an HTF zone, it can signal a very high-probability setup.
Settings Explained
Higher Timeframe
Show : Toggles the visibility of HTF zones.
Timeframe Mapping (e.g., 30Sec:, 1Min:) : Choose which higher timeframe to display based on your current timeframe.
Rejection Zone
Show : Toggles the visibility of all zones.
History : Sets the maximum number of recent zones to display on the chart.
Size Half : If checked, reduces the vertical size of the zone by 50%, drawing it from the wick's midpoint to its tip. This can help pinpoint more precise entry levels.
Invalidation Condition : Defines when a zone should be considered invalid and stop being monitored.
- None : Never invalidates.
- Touch : Invalidates when price touches the zone.
- Left : Invalidates after price touches and then leaves the zone.
- Covered : Invalidates when price moves completely through the zone.
- Passed : Invalidates when price has clearly passed the zone.
Do (for Invalidation) : Action to take when a zone is invalidated. Remove will delete it from the chart; Nothing will just stop tracking it.
Overlap Action :
- Replace : If a new zone overlaps an old one, the old one is removed.
- Keep Both : Allows new and old zones to overlap on the chart.
Color Settings (CTF/HTF) : Full control over the border, background, and center-line colors for Bullish and Bearish zones.
Calculate Range
Calculate on Visible Range Only :
- IMPORTANT : Check this to improve performance. The script will only process visible bars.
- NOTE : Enabling this option will disable all alerts, as alerts require the script to process all historical data.
Alert Rejection Zone
Set your desired alert conditions here. You can enable alerts for zone creation and/or when price touches a zone, for both CTF and HTF separately.

Wickless Heikin Ashi B/S [CHE]Wickless Heikin Ashi B/S \
Purpose.
Wickless Heikin Ashi B/S \ is built to surface only the cleanest momentum turns: it prints a Buy (B) when a bullish Heikin-Ashi candle forms with virtually no lower wick, and a Sell (S) when a bearish Heikin-Ashi candle forms with no upper wick. Optional Lock mode turns these into one-shot signals that hold the regime (bull or bear) until the opposite side appears. The tool can also project dashed horizontal lines from each signal’s price level to help you manage entries, stops, and partial take-profits visually.
How it works.
The indicator computes standard Heikin-Ashi values from your chart’s OHLC. A bar qualifies as bullish if its HA close is at or above its HA open; bearish if below. Then the wick on the relevant side is compared to the bar’s HA range. If that wick is smaller than your selected percentage threshold (plus a tiny tick epsilon to avoid rounding noise), the raw condition is considered “wickless.” Only one side can fire; on the rare occasion both raw conditions would overlap, the bar is ignored to prevent false dual triggers. When Lock is enabled, the first valid signal sets the active regime (background shaded light green for bull, light red for bear) and suppresses further same-side triggers until the opposite side appears, which helps reduce overtrading in chop.
Why wickless?
A missing wick on the “wrong” side of a Heikin-Ashi candle is a strong hint of persistent directional pressure. In practice, this filters out hesitation bars and many mid-bar flips. Traders who prefer entering only when momentum is decisive will find wickless bars useful for timing entries within an established bias.
Visuals you get.
When a valid buy appears, a small triangle “B” is plotted below the bar and a green dashed line can extend to the right from the signal’s HA open price. For sells, a triangle “S” above the bar and a red dashed line do the same. These lines act like immediate, price-anchored references for stop placement and profit scaling; you can shift the anchor left by a chosen number of bars if you prefer the line to start a little earlier for visual alignment.
How to trade it
Establish context first.
Pick a timeframe that matches your style: intraday index or crypto traders often use 5–60 minutes; swing traders might prefer 2–4 hours or daily. The tool is agnostic, but the cleanest results occur when the market is already trending or attempting a fresh breakout.
Entry.
When a B prints, the simplest rule is to enter long at or just after bar close. A conservative variation is to require price to take out the high of the signal bar in the next bar(s). For S, invert the logic: enter short on or after close, or only if price breaks the signal bar’s low.
Stop-loss.
Place the stop beyond the opposite extreme of the signal HA bar (for B: under the HA low; for S: above the HA high). If you prefer a static reference, use the dashed line level (signal HA open) or an ATR buffer (e.g., 1.0–1.5× ATR(14)). The goal is to give the trade enough room that normal noise does not immediately knock you out, while staying small enough to keep the risk contained.
Take-profit and management.
Two pragmatic approaches work well:
R-multiple scaling. Define your initial risk (distance from entry to stop). Scale out at 1R, 2R, and let a runner go toward 3R+ if structure holds.
Trailing logic. Trail behind a short moving average (e.g., EMA 20) or progressive swing points. Many traders also exit on the opposite signal when Lock flips, especially on faster timeframes.
Position sizing.
Keep risk per trade modest and consistent (e.g., 0.25–1% of account). The indicator improves timing; it does not replace risk control.
Settings guidance
Max lower wick for Bull (%) / Max upper wick for Bear (%).
These control how strict “wickless” must be. Tighter values (0.3–1.0%) yield fewer but cleaner signals and are great for strong trends or low-noise instruments. Looser values (1.5–3.0%) catch more setups in volatile markets but admit more noise. If you notice too many borderline bars triggering during high-volatility sessions, increase these thresholds slightly.
Lock (one-shot until opposite).
Keep Lock ON when you want one decisive signal per leg, reducing noise and signal clusters. Turn it OFF only if your plan intentionally scales into trends with multiple entries.
Extended lines & anchor offset.
Leave lines ON to maintain a visual memory of the last trigger levels. These often behave like near-term support/resistance. The offset simply lets you start that line one or more bars earlier if you prefer the look; it does not change the math.
Colors.
Use distinct bull/bear line colors you can read easily on your theme. The default lime/red scheme is chosen for clarity.
Practical examples
Momentum continuation (long).
Price is above your baseline (e.g., EMA 200). A B prints with a tight lower wick filter. Enter on close; stop under the signal HA low. Price pushes up in the next bars; you scale at 1R, trail the rest with EMA 20, and finally exit when a distant S appears or your trail is hit.
Breakout confirmation (short).
Following a range, price breaks down and prints an S with no upper wick. Enter short as the bar closes or on a subsequent break of the signal bar’s low. If the next bar immediately rejects and prints a bullish HA bar, your stop above the signal HA high limits damage. Otherwise, ride the move, harvesting partials as the red dashed line remains unviolated.
Alerts and automation
Set alerts to “Once Per Bar Close” for stability.
Bull ONE-SHOT fires when a valid buy prints (and Lock allows it).
Bear ONE-SHOT fires for sells analogously.
With Lock enabled, you avoid multiple pings in the same direction during a single leg—useful for webhooks or mobile notifications.
Reliability and limitations
The script calculates from completed bars and does not use higher-timeframe look-ahead or repainting tricks. Heikin-Ashi smoothing can lag turns slightly, which is expected and part of the design. In narrow ranges or whipsaw conditions, signals naturally thin out; if you must trade ranges, either tighten the wick filters and keep Lock ON, or add a trend/volatility filter (e.g., trade B only above EMA 200; S only below). Remember: this is an indicator, not a strategy. If you want exact statistics, port the triggers into a strategy and backtest with your chosen entry, stop, and exit rules.
Final notes
Wickless Heikin Ashi B/S \ is a precision timing tool: it waits for decisive, wickless HA bars, provides optional regime locking to reduce noise, and leaves clear price anchors on your chart for disciplined management. Use it with a simple framework—trend bias, fixed risk, and a straightforward exit plan—and it will keep your execution consistent without cluttering the screen or your decision-making.

Gabriel's Triple Impulsive Candle DetectorTriple Impulsive Candle Detector
Overview, critical for catching impulse moves in either direction.
SPX Income System is a rule-based framework designed to identify frequent, high-probability income opportunities on the S&P 500 cash index (SPX/SPY) using 0-DTE credit spreads. The core engine operates on 30-minute Impulse bars during the morning trade window and can be extended with optional modules for afternoon, overnight, and weekly swing opportunities. The methodology centers on a single, mechanical price event called a Impulse Bar (small wick to body ratio) to minimize discretion and keep execution consistent.
🔶What’s Inside
Core Strategy: SPX Daily Income
Timeframe: 3 kinds of 30-min bars.
Window: 09:30–11:30 ET (new setups only)
Instrument: SPX (cash index, XSP/SPY), executed with $5-wide credit spreads on 0-DTE SPX options
Bullish Setup
Entry on the break of setup bar high
Use an at the money put credit spread
Bearish Setup
Entry on the break of setup bar low
Use an at the money call credit spread
Intent: Enter shortly after setup; manage to >80% max profit or EOD expiration if SPX. If it's another stock, then a 1.5~2x D ATR is suggested.
Signal: An Impulse Bar that closes at/near the high (bullish) or low (bearish) of its 30-min range, verified with Volume above average.
Risk—limited to the risk of the option spread.
The spread is 5 dollars wide
The premium collected is $2.50
$5 - 2.50 = $2.50, or the breakeven point.
Which means what's left is the risk involved.
The risk is $2.50 per spread
🔶Why the 30-Minute Chart?
The 30-minute bar is the “chart of choice” because it filters noise and aligns with morning institutional flows.
On alternate timeframes, price often retraces half the candle body before following through.
On the 30m: the follow-through is more consistent, especially with 2x volume confirmation.
Adding support/resistance levels at the impulse bar hl2 strengthens execution.
This strategy has roots in MTF Crypto, and SPX/SPY TPO-Order Block logic.
🔶Bonus Examples:
🔹Afternoon SPX Income
Second chance window (typically 14:00–15:00 ET) if the morning trade has exited, 60-min bars instead.
🔹ORB 30 – Opening Range Break (first 30 min)
Classic ORB with an income twist for early action when time is limited. This can be entered on the 15 minute candle break.
🔹ORB 60 – Opening Range Break (second 30 min)
A follow-up ORB variant for traders who miss the first window, verified on a 60-min chart. Enter on the final 3 minutes of the hourly candle or wait for a pullback.
🔹B&B – Bed & Breakfast (Overnight)
Identifies income setups via the 10-minute chart in the last 30–60 minutes of the session with next-day open as the exit.
🔹JB – Just Breakfast
Uses the prior day’s end-of-day setup to enter at the opening bell, then manages into the daily income flow. I trade 0-date, and selling an ITM spread either partially or fully then gives me a head start on the daily income potential. This may work better if you either roll or the ORB 30 also meets the criteria.
🔹All-Day-Scalper
Converts income logic into 30-minute scalps using deep 75/80 delta ITM options as synthetic stock (requires >PDT). Meaning that the option will behave as if it is stock. This strategy comes with a warning: it's better if you can day trade.
🔹Tag ’n Turn—Weekly SPX Income Swing
Weekly swing overlay using 30-min Pulse Bars + Bollinger Bands (50) for 3–7 day swings and as a filter for daily income alignment. I use the TTM Squeeze and obtain similar results. Target heuristics (directional days) with a fired squeeze.
Part of my Gamma Scalping System.
🔶The Impulse Bar (10~40% Wick to Body Bar)
An Impulse Bar is a candle that:
Bullish: Closes higher than it opens and within the top ~10% of its high-low range.
Bearish: Closes lower than it opens and within the bottom ~10% of its high-low range.
Practical tip: Many traders mark 0-10-80-100% levels on the candle range (custom Fib or ruler) to quickly validate Pulse Bars. If it's accompanied by a volume spike, then it's better quality.
🔶SPX Daily Income—Rules & Execution
🔹Rules
Chart: 30 min, no indicators required. Pure PA, TPO-based strategy.
New Setups: 09:30–11:30 ET
Instrument: SPX signals, executed via SPX 0-DTE credit spreads ($5 wide, $2 for SPY)
🔹Entries
Bullish: Enter on a break of the setup bar high, use ATM put credit spread
Bearish: Enter on a break of the setup bar low, use ATM call credit spread
🔹Exits
Primary: Close at >80% of max profit (credit received)
Alternate: Hold to EOD expiration
Stop: Risk of the spread (defined by width – credit)
Target Heuristics (directional days)
Optional: 1.5–2× ATR as a reference (mirrors directional follow-through that often accelerates the >80% outcome)
Credit Guidance (typical)
OTM short strike ≈ $2.40
ITM short strike ≈ $2.50–$2.80
2× ITM short strike ≈ $2.80–$3.00
Trade Management (PDT-Aware)
If under PDT, many prefer set-and-forget with GTC buy-back (e.g., $0.20) or EOD expiration.
1:00 PM ET time check
Trending day ±$15–$20 SPX: usually no action, run to expiration
Non-trending day ±$5 SPX: consider taking 40–60% if available (optional) to avoid 50/50 end-of-day decay dynamics
Rationale: Without a favorable trend by ~1 PM, the odds of a late push decline; choosing a controlled partial outcome can improve long-run expectancy and reduce variance.
🔶Examples (Conceptual)
🔹Bullish: A green dot marks a bullish impulse bar; minor follow-through pushes the spread to >80% quickly.
🔹Bearish: A red triangle marks a bearish Impulse Bar; a modest down move is often sufficient for >80–95%.
🔹Tag ’n Turn—Weekly Swing (Filter & Stand-Alone)
Chart: 30-minute
Overlay: Bollinger Bands 50 (mean-reversion lens), or KC or TTM.
Setup: Tag of upper/lower band + Pulse Bar, enter on break of Pulse Bar in that direction
Target: Opposite Bollinger Band
Use Case: 3–7 day swings and a directional filter for Daily Income signals (trade with weekly bias)
🔹Afternoon SPX Income: Same Pulse logic, 14:00–15:00 ET window.
🔹ORB 30 / ORB 60: Uses 30/60-min opening range; can relax Pulse threshold (up to 40% bars) for early positioning when time-constrained.
🔹B&B (Overnight): Lasts 30–60 minutes; closes the next day at open or after the first 30-minute bar.
🔹JB (Just Breakfast): Enter at open using prior day’s signal; optionally roll into Daily Income if eligible.
🔹All-Day-Scalper: Deep ITM options (~0.75–0.80 delta) as synthetic stock.
Entry: Long ITM option
Stop: ~40% of option price
Target: 70–150% or 30-minute timed exit
Note: Time-intensive; for accounts above PDT.
🔹Brokerage: Must efficiently support SPX options; a <10% spread between OI and Volume is ideal. Preferences vary; Tastytrade, Thinkorswim, and Interactive Brokers are common choices. Use what’s reliable, available in your region, and cost-effective.
🔶Alerts (Check-in)
Bullish Impulse Detected (within 09:30–11:30 ET)
Bearish Impulse Detected (within 09:30–11:30 ET)
Afternoon Pulse (14:00–15:00 ET)
ORB 30/60 Trigger
B&B Window Open (last 60 mins)
JB at Open
Tag ’n Turn: Band Tag + Impulse (Bull/Bear)
🔶Inputs (Typical)
Session windows (morning, afternoon, last hour) ~5~15 Average Bar
Impulse threshold (strict 10% vs relaxed up to 40% for ORB variants)
Marker/label styles (bull/bear colors, dots vs arrows)
Filters (optional ATR TP, band touch BB(50-SMA, 2 Stdv.) for Tag ’n Turn)
Alert toggles (on-close for webhooks)
🔶Best Practices
One playbook, many Doors: Start with daily income; add afternoon or B&B/JB only after you’re consistent.
Credit discipline: Don’t chase poor pricing; stick to the credit guidance.
Time awareness: If no trend by ~1 PM ET, consider variance control.
Weekly bias: When using Tag ’n Turn, align daily trades with the weekly swing direction for added confluence.
Risk is defined as width – credit = max risk per spread. Size, accordingly, 1~2%.
🔶Disclosures & Risk
This is not financial advice. Options involve risk and are not suitable for all investors. Past performance (including backtests or theoretical studies) does not guarantee future results. Slippage, fills, assignment risk, and latency can materially impact outcomes. Trade a plan you fully understand and always size for durability. On the Daily, the Impulse bars, are often a signal that you should plan for it to return back to half of the Candle's body, and plan accordingly.

Triple-EMA Cloud (3× configurable EMAs + timeframe + fill)About This Script
Name: Triple-EMA Cloud (3× configurable EMAs + timeframe + fill)
What it does:
The script plots three Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) on your chart.
You can set each EMA’s length (how many bars or days it averages over), source (for example, closing price, opening price, or the midpoint of high + low), and timeframe (you can have one EMA use daily data, another hourly data, etc.).
The indicator draws a “cloud” or channel by shading the area between the outermost two EMAs of the three. This lets you see a band or zone that the price is moving in, defined by those EMAs.
You also get full control over how each of the three EMA‐lines looks: color, thickness, transparency, and plot style (solid line, steps, circles, etc.).
How to Use It (for Beginners)
Here’s how a trader who’s new to charts can use this tool, especially when looking for pullbacks or undercut price action.
Key Concepts
Trend: Imagine the market price is generally going up or down. EMAs are a way to smooth out price movements so you can see the trend more clearly.
Pullback: When a price has been going up (an uptrend), sometimes it dips down a little before going up again. That dip is the pullback. It’s a chance to enter or add to a position at a “better price.”
Undercut: This is when price drops below an important level (for example an EMA) and then comes back up. It looks like it broke below, but then it recovers. That may show reverse pressure or strength building.
How the Script Helps With Pullbacks & Undercuts
Marking Trend Zones with the Cloud
The cloud between the outer EMA lines gives you a zone of expected support/resistance. If the price is above the cloud, that zone can act like a “floor” in uptrends; if it is below, the cloud might act like a “ceiling” in downtrends.
Watching Price vs the EMAs
If the price pulls back toward the cloud (or toward one of the EMAs) and then bounces back up, that’s a signal that the uptrend might continue.
If the price undercuts (goes a bit below) one of the EMAs or the cloud and then returns above it, that can also be a signal. It suggests that even though there was a temporary drop, buyers stepped in.
Using the Three EMAs for Confirmation
Because the script uses three EMAs, you can see how tightly or loosely they are spaced.
If all three EMAs are broadly aligned (for example, in an uptrend: shorter length above longer length, each pulling from reliable price source), that gives more confidence in trend strength.
If the middle EMA (or different source/timeframe) is holding up as support while others are above, it strengthens signal.
Entry & Exit Points
Entry: For example, after a pullback toward the cloud or “mid‐EMA”, wait for price to show a bounce up. That could be a better entry than buying at the top.
Stop Loss / Risk: You might place a stop loss just below the cloud or the lowest of your selected EMAs so that if price breaks through, the idea is invalidated.
Profit Target: Could be a recent high, resistance level, or a fixed reward-risk multiple (for example aiming to make twice what you risked).
Practical Steps for New Traders
Set up the EMAs
Choose simple lengths like 10, 21, 50.
For example, EMA #1 = length 10, source Close, timeframe “current chart”; EMA #2 = length 21, source (H+L)/2; EMA #3 = length 50, maybe timeframe daily.
Observe the Price Action
When price moves up, then dips, see if it comes back near the shaded cloud or one of the EMAs.
See if the dip touches the EMAs lightly (not a big drop) and then price starts climbing again.
Look for undercuts
If price briefly goes below a line (or below cloud) and then closes back above, that’s undercut + recovery. That bounce back is often meaningful.
Manage risk
Only put in money you can afford to lose.
Use small position size until you get comfortable.
Use stop-loss (as mentioned) in case the price doesn’t bounce as expected.
Practice
Put this indicator on charts (stocks you follow) in past time periods. See how price behaved with pullbacks / undercuts relative to the EMAs & cloud. This helps you learn to see signals.
What It Doesn’t Do (and What to Be Careful Of)
It doesn’t predict the future — it simply shows zones and trends. Price can still break down through the cloud.
In a “choppy” market (i.e. when price is going up and down without a clear trend), signals from EMAs / clouds are less reliable. You’ll get more “false bounces.”
Under / overshoots & big news events can break through clean levels, so always watch for confirmation (volume, price behavior) before putting big money in.
ATR Take Profit (T-Maker)A dead-simple take-profit helper based on ATR.
This script calculates a 14-period Average True Range (ATR) and multiplies it by a user-defined factor, then shows that single number on your chart in a small table (bottom-left). Use it as a quick, volatility-aware distance for setting take-profit levels, scaling out, or gauging whether a move has “room” to breathe.
What it does
Computes ATR(14) × Multiplier every bar.
Displays the result (rounded to 2 decimals) in a clean on-chart label.
Updates only on the last bar to avoid visual noise and keep performance snappy.
Why it’s useful
Volatility-adjusted targets: ATR adapts to changing market conditions, so your TP distance scales with current volatility.
Instrument & timeframe agnostic: Works on any symbol and timeframe supported by TradingView.
Minimalist workflow: No lines or clutter—just the exact distance to add/subtract from your entry.
How to use it
Choose your ATR Multiplier (default = 4).
Example: If ATR(14) = 1.52 and Multiplier = 4 → displayed value = 6.08.
For a long, a simple TP idea is: TP = Entry + xATR.
For a short: TP = Entry − xATR.
Optionally draw a manual horizontal line at your calculated TP level, or use the value to feed your own rules in other scripts.
Tip: Test different multipliers per market/timeframe (e.g., 2–3 for intraday indices, 3–5 for swing on FX/crypto). Optimize in backtests before going live.
Inputs
ATR Multiplier (int): Scales ATR(14) to your preferred TP distance.
Text Color (color): Customize the display color to match your theme.
Notes & Limitations
Uses ATR(14) (fixed) for consistency in this original version.
Displays a single number only—it does not plot levels, draw lines, or place orders.
Value is rounded to 2 decimals and shown bottom-left of the chart.

Silent Trigger Silent Trigger combines widely used concepts under one scoring engine. Each module adds weight only when its conditions are met:
1. Higher-Timeframe (HTF) context
• Requests 1H and the next HTF up (e.g., 4H/D) with request.security(...) on confirmed bars only.
• Uses RSI(14) and a MACD line (EMA12–EMA26 difference) for bias.
• By default HTF weights the score. There is an option to require HTF alignment if you prefer a hard filter.
2. Market regime
• ADX for trend strength.
• Bollinger Band width and a fractal-energy proxy to detect squeeze/coiling vs expansion.
3. Smart-money / Wyckoff structure
• High-volume narrow bars, absorption, spring/upthrust, and liquidity grabs past recent swing highs/lows.
4. Momentum & divergences
• RSI and MACD-line divergences (regular + hidden) and simple exhaustion checks.
5. Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
• 3-bar gap with mid-gap revisit confirmation.
6. Volume context
• Relative volume and a compact 10-bin rolling volume profile to locate HVN proximity.
7. Sessions / time filter
• Optional London/NY “kill zone” participation filter.
8. Correlation (optional)
• Simple BTC trend check for USD-quoted markets.
Pre-Move (yellow) logic:
Triggers only when the market is compressed (squeeze/low fractal energy), ADX is rising, the MACD histogram is near zero (pressure building), and there is a money-flow impulse (MFI slope and/or OBV Z-score spike).
The yellow diamond is plotted on the side of the expected move:
• Below for bullish reversals / Above for bullish breakouts.
• Above for bearish reversals / Below for bearish breakouts.
A built-in cooldown keeps yellows from spamming.
⸻
What appears on the chart
• Bull diamond (green): Total score ≥ your threshold and > bear score.
• Bear diamond (magenta): Mirror of the above.
• Pre-move (yellow): Early heads-up; use it with HTF context and structure.
All diamonds are intentionally tiny to minimize clutter.
⸻
Key settings
• Signal Mode & Min Probability – tighten/loosen confirmations.
• Use Higher TF in Scoring – soft weighting (default).
• Require HTF Alignment – optional hard gate.
• Module toggles – Smart Money, Wyckoff, FVG, Correlation, Sessions.
• Pre-Move – enable, cooldown bars, MFI levels, OBV Z-score threshold.
⸻
How to use (practical)
1. Choose a TF that matches your style (5–15m intraday, 1H–4H swing).
2. Read HTF bias first; trade in that direction unless structure clearly supports a reversal.
3. Treat yellow as “get ready.” Act only when a green/magenta prints with structure (S/R, FVG, HVN) and acceptable risk.
4. Place stops beyond the liquidity level or FVG midpoint; size positions conservatively.
⸻
Repainting & HTF policy
• No lookahead is used anywhere.
• request.security is called on confirmed bars; the HTF MACD line is computed inside the HTF context (single series), not by indexing a tuple.
• Signals are designed for bar-close confirmation. Intra-bar alerts can change until the bar closes.
⸻
Limitations (honest)
• Money-flow features depend on volume quality; thin/synthetic volume reduces reliability.
• Pre-moves can fail during unscheduled news shocks or when HTF trend is dominant.
• This is not financial advice. You are responsible for entries, exits, and risk.
⸻
Alerts
Built-in bull/bear alerts include direction and a probability bucket (Basic/Moderate/Strong/Extreme).
Pre-move yellows are primarily visual; you can still set an alert on their plot condition if desired.
⸻
Why this isn’t a “mashup”
• A single probability engine blends HTF bias, structure (liquidity/Wyckoff/FVG), regime, and volume into a score, rather than stacking unrelated indicators.
• A pre-move detector that requires compression + rising trend energy + money-flow impulse, and places the marker on the side of the expected move, with cooldown control.
• A lightweight rolling HVN check to bias continuation vs mean-reversion near key nodes.
⸻
Changelog (summary)
• Current release: pre-move module, HTF hard-gate option, tiny diamonds, clarified HTF/no-repaint policy, session filter tidy-up.

SMC ToolBox [WinWorld]👋 INTRODUCTION
SMC ToolBox indicator is not just a simple indicator, but rather a collection of SMC-related algorithms, that our teams has found to make the most profound impact on determination process of the most high-quality liquidity zones and points of interests ( further – POIs ), hence the name of the indicator – Tool Box (and it also sounds cool :) .
From candle patterns to complex orderflow detection algorithm, ToolBox indicator will help any trader with search for useful tools, solving the needs from confirming position entry levels to trend-following and mean reversion opportunities.
❓ WHY DID WE BUILD THIS?
This indicator was initially built for our team's internal use for the sole purpose of gathering all actively used non-structure-related algorithms* in one place, so we could have only the tools that are truly needed at hand at any point of time. After we showed this tool to our trading partners, they were surprised about how light, fast and useful ToolBox was and they advised us on sharing this with our community and, after giving it a proper thought, we decided to follow their advice.
Funnily enough , after researching TradingView's open-source script library, we haven't found even one instance of even remotely alike indicators, so it fair to say that we are one of the first people to release this kind of SMC-related indicator bundles on the market and we strongly that TradingView's community will find this tool of use.
🤷♂️ WHY SHOULD YOU CARE AT ALL?
Frankly speaking, we are not the first people to build our own algorithms of such popular indicators like Equal Highs and Lows (EQHL), Previous Day High Low (PDHL), Orderflow (OF) and etc., but we are definitely one of the first teams to implement these indicators with the help of algorithms, that are actually used by the most professional traders on YouTube and other social media trading influencers. Simply taking trades from our SCOBs, OFs, EQHLs and etc. won't print you millions overnight, but what these algos will do is help you with being aware of is potentially laying ahead of you with a very clean probability.
Why does it matter? It simple: better market awareness gives you an edge over other trades, which use old algorithms, which are clearly outdated, so beating such traders in the long run is just a game of time for you, so good algorithms do matter. Each indicator inside ToolBox is there to help you develop this market awareness and forge your edge bit by bit.
Now let's talk about what is inside the ToolBox.
🔍 OVERVIEW
At the moment of publishing ToolBox contains 8 indicators, so say "Hello" to:
Price Border Bands (further – PBB) ;
Ordeflow (further – OF) ;
Equal Highs & Lows (further – EQHL) ;
Previous Day High & Low ( further – PDHL) ;
Single Candle Order Block (further – SCOB) ;
Institutional Funding Candle (further – IFC) ;
Engulfing Candle (further – EC) ;
Inside Bars (further – IB) .
Some of them you may know, some of them you may not, so let's review each of them one by one.
📍 INDICATOR: Price Border Bands (PBB)
Price Border Bands indicator is a simple yet useful algorithm, based on Triangular Moving Average (TMA), which helps determine extreme price spikes, which on average act as meaningful mean reversion opportunities. It also is a good an effective "verifier" of POIs and zones of interest (further – ZOI) .
We advise on using this indicator this way:
Look for price going beyond upper or lower band of PBB;
Look for price reaching POI or ZOI;
Start searching for your entry point.
The most common sign of potential price reversal, which PBB searches for, is intense price spike, which signals about "liquidity clearing" or, in simple terms, manipulation .
Manipulation of the price inside the POI or price being "stopped" by POI is a screaming sign of the potentional following reversal. See the example of such situation on the screenshot below:
Additionally we need to talk about trend filter inside PBB, which colours the bars on the chart under certain conditions. If bars on the chart are being coloured in gray – this is your sign to stop trading on this asset? because there is risk to catch an uncomfortably big price spike, which might turn the '+' of your position's PnL in to '-'. See the example of PBB highlighting bar's of risky price zone in gray colour on the screenshot below:
In order to continue trading you need to wait for bars to stop being coloured in gray OR confirm the fact that price made Change of Character (ChoCh) in reverse to the previous direction of price, which was marked as risky by PBB.
And last but not least: if you see POI being reach by price inside the bands of PBB, then consider this POI weak and avoid trading it. See the example of weak POI inside PBB bands on the screenshot below:
📍 INDICATOR: Orderflow (OF)
Orderflow indicator is an algorithm, which detects Sell-to-Buy (furthert – STB) or Buy-to-Sell (further – BTS) manipulations, using the algorithm of impulse & correction price movement detection, taken from one of our previously built indicators – Impulse Correction SCOB Mapper (ICSM) .
Let's explain the terms from above:
Impulse – series of bars, each bar of which consecutively updated previous bar's high and then last candle broke previous bar's low ;
Correction – series of bars, each bar of which consecutively updated previous bar's low and then last candle broke previous bar's high ;
STB – a type of price manipulation, which can be described as a correction of price inside global upward movemnt;
BTS – a type of price manipulation, which can be describd as a impulse of price inside global downward movement.
Unlike traditional order blocks, which are often narrower and more selective, Orderflow zones cover a wider price range and present a higher probability of mitigation. This makes them more reliable for entries in ovaerage in comparison to classic orderblocks.
Let's review examples of bullish and bearish orderflows on the screenshots below:
Bullish orderflows (STBs) (blue boxes with "OF" text inside)
Bearish orderflows (BTSs) (orange boxes with "OF" text inside)
The usage of ZOIs, detected by OF algorithm, is pretty straightforward: take trades against the ordeflow block, that price has reached. Even though we don't recommend relying on Orderflow blocks as sole producers of signals, you can use them as such in way, that can be described like this:
Place stop-loss (SL) beyond the furthest border of OF block (bottom of the bullish OF or top of the bearish OF), that price has reached;
Aim for >2:1 RR ratio and place your take-profit (TP) accordingly.
You can see the example setups of OF blocks as signal producers on the screenshots below:
Examples of LONG trades, taken from price reaching bullish OF block.
Examples of SHORT trades, taken from price reaching bearish OF block.
Summarising, Orderflow can be described as a tool that helps determine the STB and BTS price manipulations, which are great price ZOIs and can be used both as confirmation tools for your exisiting signals and sole signal producers, in which case such they needed to be handled extra mindfully and preferrably bonded with other tools for additional confirmation. We personally recommend using Ordeflow as confirmation tool, because ZOIs, detected by Orderflow, are usually the price ranges, around which traders tend to place their stop-losses, which only gives more strength to these zones for supporting the price and helps traders with "trading from support/resistance" strategies gain additional edge.
📍 INDICATOR: Equal Highs & Lows (EQHL)
EQHL indicator is an algorithm, which scans the extremums of impulse and correction movements, detected by our ICSM indicator , and marks ones which are roughly or equaly placed on the same price levels. Equal highs (further – EQH) and equal lows (further – EQL) are local liquidity pools, where stop orders and resting orders cluster; price often gravitates to these zones for liquidity “top-ups,” after which a reaction or continuation to the next liquidity source may occur. Basically, EQHL algorithm highlights clusters of equal extremes as navigational anchors for “collect → react → confirm” scenarios.
Talking about usage, we advise to not take swept or reached EQHLs as entries by themselves. Evaluate them alongside HTF structure, Inducement (IDM), orderblocks (OB), orderflow (OF), candle pattern context (e.g., IFC/EC) on the LTF and etc. Intended usage scenario of this algorithm is something like this:
Price reaches EQH/EQL;
Price hangs around the reached EQH/EQL;
Another tool (for example, OF or OB) signals about price reversals from the level of reached EQH/EQL;
Trader starts looking for an entry.
See the examples of EQHLs, which algorithms maps on the chart, on the screenshots below:
Equal Lows (EQLs)
Equal Highs (EQHs)
📍 INDICATOR: Previous Day High & Low (PDHL)
PDHL indicator is an algorithm, princples of work of which can be derived from its name: algorithm tracks previous day's high and low and displays it on the chart.
Previous day's high and low are fundamental POIs in any financial market, which are traded not only by SMC traders, but by many other traders, especially by traders, which consider these POIs are one of the most crucial, because they usually highly liquidity-rich and can signal about wondeful reversal opportunities.
We expect traders to use PDHL algorithm as confirmation tool when trading by mean reversion strategies. Usage of PDHL as signal source is advised against, but traders are free to experiment nevertheless.
PDHL algorithm shows two types of PDHLs on the chart: active PDHL (solid line) and swept PDHL (dashed line) . You can the examples of PDHLs, detected by our algorithm, on the screenshot below:
📍 INDICATOR: Single Candle Order Block (SCOB)
SCOB indicator is an algorithm, which marks a very specific POIS, which are based on of the most simple yet highly profound SMC and candle pattern principles and are usually a good alternative for classic orderblocks.
Principles of SCOB detection are very simple:
Price sweeps previous candle's extremum (high/low). So called "liquidity sweep" ;
Immediately after step 1 price forms a fair value gap (FVG).
You can see basic examples of bearish and bullish SCOBs on the screenshot below:
As a matter of fact, SCOB can be used both as a confirmation tool and source of signals. However! To be a source of signals, SCOB is most suitable to be used while trading on lower timeframe (LTF), while trading on a higher timeframe (HTF) on average requires to look at SCOB as a POI rather than as independent source of signals. That being said, we would like additionally to point out, that due to the nature of SCOB being an orderblock, this tool by its nature is best suitable as confirmation tool and we expect traders to use it as such, but either way this indicator is quite multifunctional and can be used by each trader for a more specific purposes.
SCOBs, which are detected by our algorithm, are painted on the chart either as coloured candles (SCOBs without inside bars) or coloured boxes (SCOBs with inside bars) . You can see examples of SCOBs, which were detected by our SCOB algorithm, on the screenshot below:
📍 INDICATOR: Institutional Funding Candle (IFC)
IFC is a candle, which is a more strict version of SCOB. Our algorithms detects an IFC, if SCOB satisfies these conditions:
SCOB candle has large shadow (more than 50% of candle's body);
SCOB candle has large range ( | high - low | is more than a certain value, which is base on ATR).
That's basically it! Being simple as that, IFC represents itself as a high-trust SCOB, which on average has larger chance of reversing price when IFC candle is reached by it and our practice shows that it is indeed the case. IFC candles are usually go hand in hand with large price and volume spikes, which are believed to be caused by large institutional players, who trading eager to catch retail trader's stop orders, which they usually place around POIs like IFC and SCOB.
We expect traders to use IFC as a tool for entry confirmation bias, especially when considering IFC from HTF.
You can see IFC, which our algoritms detects on the chart, on the screenshot below:
📍 INDICATOR: Engulfing Candle (EC)
An Engulfing Candle is a candle, which occurs when the current candle’s body engulfs the prior candle’s body, showing a short-term shift in demand/supply balance. In SMC context, it is most useful around POIs/liquidity as a contextual confirmation element. The indicator marks bullish and bearish EC without implying a “must reverse” outcome – it’s a focus cue, not a promise.
As with any other alike tool, this algorithm should not be used as sole source of signals, but rather as a confirmation tool. ECs near support/resistance zones or POIs are typically more impactufl than those inside choppy consolidations. Structural and LTF price impulse confirmation usually enhances existing position bias in a positive way.
You can see examples of engulfing candles on the screenshots below:
Bullish engulfing candles
Bearish engulfing candles
📍 INDICATOR: Inside Bars (IB)
Inside Bars are bars, which are contained inside the range of high and low prices of the bars preceding them. This algorithm was designed to showcase periods of potential price consolidation/volatylity compression and quite often precedes price movement towards closest liquidity POIs and ZOIs. When price finally breaks out of its previous range, it usually provides good opportunities for entering trades using breakout strategies (especially ones, that are based on SMC principles) .
You can see examples of IBs, which are detected by our algorithm on the chart, on the screenshot below:
That was a long list of features, now let's talk about settings now.

🏁 AFTERWORD
SMC ToolBox indicator is designed to be the ultimate swiss knife, which might bring you quantifiable results when trying to crack the market's secret of where the liquidity is placed. This indicator doesn't produce any particular signals not it gives any financial advice, but it helps you deepen understanding about potential existing liquidity zones and price points by employing principles of SMC algorithms, which are most commonly used by retail traders on a daily basis.
You can view this indicator as a Christmas candy box: you pick only the candles (indicators) you need and want. We expect any trader to use this indicator by exactly same way: you should take onlt the things you need to enhance your strategy, not worrying about what to do with other indicators, fi they don't suit you.
Lastly, we would like to share our team's recommendations (they are optional, of course) on how to use certain POIs from ToolBox:
Use PBB as a filter for validating POis. Pay close attention to the rule "don't trade POIs, which are located inside the bands of PBB" (described above in "INDICATOR: PBB") ;
Use Orderflow to find short-term and mid-term trading opportunitions for trend-following strategies, using OF blocks as resistance in bearish trend and support in bullish trend;
Use EQHL and PDHL indicators when trading by mean-reversion strategies on intraday timeframes. These indicators will be especially of use to forex, stock and crypto traders;
Use SCOB and IFC indicators when trading by mean-reversion strategy to find short-term reversal opportunities;
Use ECs and IBs as confirmation/denial tools for your entry ideas. We recommend avoiding trading If price is currently going inside HTF's IB range.
We have no doubts that SMC ToolBox indicator will be of use to any trader, who employs and desire to employ SMC principles in his strategy. We will be waiting for your feedback, meanwhile you can ask your questions in the comments :)
Sincerely,
WinWorld team.

🔶 Volatility-Adaptive Zone Framework
Features dynamic ATR-based width adjustment that expands channels during high-volatility periods and contracts during consolidation phases, preventing false signals while maintaining sensitivity to genuine breakouts. The asymmetric multiplier system optimizes zone boundaries for realistic market behavior patterns.
// Dynamic Volatility Adjustment
Channel_Width_Resistance = ATR * resistance_mult
Channel_Width_Support = ATR * support_mult
// Asymmetric Zone Optimization
Resistance_Zone = Resistance_Basis ± (ATR_Multiplied * )
Support_Zone = Support_Basis ± (ATR_Multiplied * )
