Weighted Regression Bands (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Weighted Regression Bands is a precision-engineered trend and volatility tool designed to adapt to the real market structure instead of reacting to price noise.
This indicator analyzes Weighted High/Low medians and applies user-selectable smoothing methods — including Kalman Filtering, ALMA, and custom Linear Regression — to generate a Fair Value line. Around this, it constructs dynamic standard deviation bands that adapt in real-time to market volatility.
The result is a visually clean and structurally intelligent trend framework suitable for breakout traders, mean reversion strategies, and trend-driven analysis.
█ How It Works
⚪ Structural High/Low Analysis
At the heart of this indicator is a custom high/low weighting system. Instead of using just the raw high or low values, it calculates a midline = (high + low) / 2, then applies one of three weighting methods to determine which price zones matter most.
Users can select the method using the “Weighted HL Method” setting:
Simple
Selects the single most dominant median (highest or lowest) in the lookback window. Ideal for fast, reactive signals.
Advanced
Ranks each bar based on a composite score: median × range × recency. This method highlights structurally meaningful bars that had both volatility and recency. A built-in Kalman filter is applied for extra stability.
Smooth
Blends multiple bars into a single weighted average using smoothed decay and range. This provides the softest and most stable structural response.
⚪ Smoothing Methods (ALMA / Linear Regression)
ALMA provides responsive, low-lag smoothing for fast trend reading.
Linear Regression projects the Fair Value forward, ideal for trend modeling.
⚪ Kalman Smoothing Filter
Before trend calculations, the indicator applies an optional Kalman-style smoothing filter. This helps:
Reduce choppy false shifts in trend,
Retain signal clarity during volatile periods,
Provide stability for long-term setups.
⚪ Deviation Bands (Dynamic Volatility Envelopes)
The indicator builds ±1, ±2, and ±3 standard deviation bands around the fair value line:
Calculated from the standard deviation of price,
Bands expand and contract based on recent volatility,
Visualizes potential overbought/oversold or trending conditions.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Trading & Filtering
Use the Fair Value line to identify the dominant direction.
Only trade in the direction of the slope for higher probability setups.
⚪ Volatility-Based Entries
Watch for price reaching outer bands (+2σ, +3σ) for possible exhaustion.
Mean reversion entries become higher quality when far from Fair Value.
█ Settings
Length – Lookback for Weighted HL and trend smoothing
Deviation Multiplier – Controls how wide the bands are from the fair value line
Method – Choose between ALMA or Linear Regression smoothing
Smoothing – Strength of Kalman Filter (1 = none, <1 = stronger smoothing)

Ehlers Regime Dynamic CandlesCore Calculation Mechanism
The indicator uses advanced Ehlers signal processing techniques to identify market regimes and create dynamically colored candles that reflect market conditions.
Super Smoother Filter: Price data (open, high, low, close) is processed through an Ehlers Super Smoother Filter to reduce market noise while preserving important price movements. This creates a clearer signal for regime detection.
Autocorrelation Analysis: The core of regime detection uses autocorrelation functions at different lag periods:
Primary autocorrelation measures correlation between the current price and its previous value
Trending autocorrelation measures longer-term persistence in the data series
These values combined determine if the market is in a trending or choppy regime
(Image showing Ehlers custom candles vs default candlesticks)
Regime Strength Calculation:
-Raw signal from autocorrelation with user-defined threshold adjustment
-Adaptive scaling based on sensitivity parameter
-Optional volume validation that confirms signal strength using volume data
-Normalization to 0-1 range and smoothing for visual consistency
-Percentile ranking to provide contextually meaningful strength values
Fisher Transform: Applied to the smoothed price to identify statistical extremes, which helps adjust transparency levels during significant price movements.
Key Features & Components
Regime Detection: Identifies trending vs. choppy market conditions using Ehlers' autocorrelation techniques.
Dynamic Candle Coloring: Candles transition smoothly between three color states:
Bullish trending (typically green/teal)
Bearish trending (typically red/purple)
Choppy/neutral (typically blue/silver)
Volume Validation: Optional incorporation of volume data to confirm trend strength (stronger volume during trending periods increases confidence).
Adaptive Transparency: Candles become more opaque during statistically significant price movements based on Fisher Transform values.
Gradient Smoothing: Controls the visual transition between regime states for a more aesthetically pleasing appearance.
Customizable Colors and Style: Full control over all visual aspects including candle body/wick colors and transparency.
Configuration Options
Users can adjust the following parameters in the indicator settings:
Main Settings:
Cycle Length: Controls the lookback period for cycle detection. Lower values increase responsiveness but may introduce noise.
Gradient Smoothness: Determines how quickly colors transition when regime changes.
Trend Detection Threshold: Sets the autocorrelation strength required to classify a trend.
Trend Sensitivity: Scales regime strength calculation to produce a better distribution of values.
Use Volume: Toggles whether volume data is used to validate trend strength.
Color Settings:
Trending Regime Colors: Separate color options for bullish and bearish candle bodies and wicks.
Choppy Regime Colors: Color options for candle bodies and wicks during sideways/neutral markets.
Style Settings:
Candle Border Options: Toggle borders and adjust their color and transparency.
Adaptive Transparency: Enable/disable dynamic transparency based on statistical significance.
Base Transparency: Set the baseline transparency level for all candles.
Interpretation Notes
Color Transitions: As the market shifts between regimes, candle colors gradually transition, providing visual cues about market structure changes.
Regime Strength: The intensity of colors indicates the strength of the detected regime:
Strong trending regimes show vibrant trending colors
Weak or mixed regimes display colors closer to the choppy/neutral color
Transitions between regimes show gradient colors
Transparency Changes: More opaque candles indicate statistically significant price movements, while more transparent candles suggest routine or less significant price action.
Volume Interaction: When volume validation is enabled, trending colors become more pronounced during high volume trends and subdued during low volume periods.
Disclaimer: These are custom candles that are significantly different from normal candlesticks.
Unlike traditional candlesticks that display raw price data, these candles:
• Use Ehlers signal processing to filter and smooth price data
• Dynamically change color based on detected market regimes
• Show statistical significance through transparency
• May appear delayed compared to standard candles due to the filtering process
Traditional trading strategies dependent on candlestick patterns will not work with these.
Risk Disclaimer
Trading involves significant risk. This indicator is provided for analytical purposes only and does not constitute financial advice. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Use sound risk management practices and never trade with capital you cannot afford to lose. The Ehlers Regime Dynamic Candles indicator should be used as part of a comprehensive trading approach, not as a standalone trading system.
Dynamic Liquidity Depth [BigBeluga]
Dynamic Liquidity Depth
A liquidity mapping engine that reveals hidden zones of market vulnerability. This tool simulates where potential large concentrations of stop-losses may exist — above recent highs (sell-side) and below recent lows (buy-side) — by analyzing real price behavior and directional volume. The result is a dynamic two-sided volume profile that highlights where price is most likely to gravitate during liquidation events, reversals, or engineered stop hunts.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Two-Sided Liquidity Profiles:
Plots two separate profiles on the chart — one above price for potential sell-side liquidity , and one below price for potential buy-side liquidity . Each profile reflects the volume distribution across binned zones derived from historical highs and lows.
Real Stop Zone Simulation:
Each profile is offset from the current high or low using an ATR-based buffer. This simulates where traders might cluster their stop-losses above swing highs (short stops) or below swing lows (long stops).
Directional Volume Analysis:
Buy-side volume is accumulated only from bullish candles (close > open), while sell-side volume is accumulated only from bearish candles (close < open). This directional filtering enhances accuracy by capturing genuine pressure zones.
Dynamic Volume Heatmap:
Each liquidity bin is rendered as a horizontal box with a color gradient based on volume intensity:
- Low activity bins are shaded lightly.
- High-volume zones appear more vividly in red (sell) or lime (buy).
- The maximum volume bin in each profile is emphasized with a brighter fill and a volume label.
Extended POC Zones:
The Point of Control (PoC) — the bin with the most volume — is extended backwards across the entire lookback period to mark critical resistance (sell-side) or support (buy-side) levels.
Total Volume Summary Labels:
At the center of each profile, a summary label displays Total Buy Liquidity and Total Sell Liquidity volume.
This metric helps assess directional imbalance — when buy liquidity is dominant, the market may favor upward continuation, and vice versa.
Customizable Profile Granularity:
You can fine-tune both Resolution (Bins) and Offset Distance to adjust how far profiles are displaced from price and how many levels are calculated within the ATR range.
🔵 HOW IT WORKS
The indicator calculates an ATR-based buffer above highs and below lows to define the top and bottom of the liquidity zones.
Using a user-defined lookback period, it scans historical candles and divides the buffered zones into bins.
Each bin checks if bullish (or bearish) candles pass through it based on price wicks and body.
Volume from valid candles is summed into the corresponding bin.
When volume exists in a bin, a horizontal box is drawn with a width scaled by relative volume strength.
The bin with the highest volume is highlighted and optionally extended backward as a zone of importance.
Total buy/sell liquidity is displayed with a summary label at the side of the profile.
🔵 USAGE/b]
Identify Stop Hunt Zones: High-volume clusters near swing highs/lows are likely liquidation zones targeted during fakeouts.
Fade or Follow Reactions: Price hitting a high-volume bin may reverse (fade opportunity) or break with strength (confirmation breakout).
Layer with Other Tools: Combine with market structure, order blocks, or trend filters to validate entries near liquidity.
Adjust Offset for Sensitivity: Use higher offset to simulate wider stop placement; use lower for tighter scalping zones.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Dynamic Liquidity Depth transforms raw price and volume into a spatial map of liquidity. By revealing areas where stop orders are likely hidden, it gives traders insight into price manipulation zones, potential reversal levels, and breakout traps. Whether you're hunting for traps or trading with the flow, this tool equips you to navigate liquidity with precision.

Higher Timeframe TrendMap [BigBeluga]🔵HTF TrendMap
A powerful visual overlay that brings higher timeframe market structure directly onto your intraday chart.
This tool maps directional bias, trend strength, and dynamic range boundaries from a user-selected HTF (like Daily or 4H), offering a real-time confluence layer for scalpers, day traders, and swing traders.
By plotting the evolving average (HL2), it acts as a volatility-weighted trend anchor, allowing you to align lower timeframe entries with higher timeframe intent.
Technical Overview:
At the close of each higher timeframe (HTF) candle, the indicator stores the high, low, and calculates the HL2 midpoint. These values are then referenced on the lower timeframe chart to plot trend direction and price boundaries.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Maps the selected higher timeframe (HTF) (e.g., Daily) onto your current chart.
At the close of each HTF candle , it starts to calculate and store the highest, lowest, and average (HL2) price levels .
The average (HL2) value is treated as the HTF trend baseline —plotted in orange for uptrend , blue for downtrend .
Visual curve thickens and fades to show progress through the HTF period (stronger color = fresher data).
Horizontal dashed lines show HTF high and low levels that persist until the next period closes.
On every HTF close, two price labels are printed for the high and low levels.
Vertical separators visually mark the start of each HTF candle for easy structural recognition.
A real-time dashboard shows selected HTF, current trend direction (🢁/🢃), and updates dynamically.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use the HTF average line as a bias filter —only long when the trend is up (orange), short when down (blue).
HTF high/low labels help identify key breakout or rejection zones .
Combine with intraday systems or reversal tools for multi-timeframe confluence setups .
Ideal for scalpers and swing traders who rely on HTF momentum shifts .
🔵 CONCLUSION
HTF TrendMap provides a clean, data-rich layer of higher timeframe context to any chart. With adaptive trend coloring, volatility mapping, and real-time data labeling, it enables traders to stay in sync with macro structure while executing on the micro.
OA - Price Magnet Zones Price Magnet Zones Indicator
Overview
The Price Magnet Zones indicator identifies special price levels that have a high statistical probability of being revisited by price in the future.
It works by detecting candles with specific formation characteristics - those without top or bottom wicks - which often signify important market levels that price tends to return to.
Key Features
Automated Detection: Identifies special candle formations automatically and draws horizontal lines at these levels
Dynamic Management Removes lines once price touches them or when they exceed the lookback period
Statistical Analysis: Tracks touch rates and average time until price returns to these levels
Clean Visual Interface: Shows only untouched levels for a clear chart view
How It Works
The indicator detects two specific types of candle formations:
Bullish Levels: Candles with no bottom wick (open = low) that close higher
Bearish Levels: Candles with no top wick (open = high) that close lowe
These formations often represent hidden liquidity zones or order blocks where price tends to return. The indicator draws horizontal lines at these levels and tracks whether price revisits them.
Statistics Tracking
The indicator maintains comprehensive statistics about the detected levels:
Total Levels: Number of bullish, bearish, and total levels detected
Touched Levels: Number of levels that price has returned to touch
Touch Rate: Percentage of levels that have been touched by price
Average Touch Time: Average number of bars until price touches each level type
Trading Applications
These hidden levels can be valuable for:
Identifying potential support and resistance zones
Finding entry and exit points for trades
Setting stop loss levels
Determining price targets
Confirming other technical signals
Settings
Max Bars to Track: Maximum number of bars to keep tracking a level (default: 500)
Line Thickness: Visual thickness of the horizontal lines (1-4)
Line Color: Color of the horizontal lines
Min Candles Before Check: Number of candles to wait before including touches in statistics (default: 3)
Show Statistics: Toggle statistics table display
Usage Tips
The statistics only count touches that occur after the specified minimum number of candles have passed, providing more meaningful data
Higher touch rates indicate stronger magnetic properties of these levels
The average touch time can help with timing expectations for trades
These levels work across various timeframes and markets
For best results, use alongside other technical analysis tools
This indicator does not provide trading signals but offers valuable insights into hidden market structure that can enhance your trading strategy.

First FVG Custom Time RangeFirst FVG — Opening Range Fair Value Gap Detector
Smart Money Opening Imbalance Strategy Tool
This script automatically detects and highlights the first Fair Value Gap (FVG) that forms between 9:30 and 10:00 AM Eastern Time (New York session open) — a critical period often referred to as the Opening Range. It’s designed for Smart Money traders looking to isolate early-morning inefficiencies that may influence market behavior throughout the trading day.
🔍 What This Script Does:
Automatically Detects the First FVG in the Opening Range
Scans price action between 9:30 and 10:00 AM ET and identifies the first valid bullish or bearish FVG that forms.
Only one FVG is shown per day — ensuring a clean, focused view.
Draws a Visual Zone
Once detected, the FVG zone is extended forward on the chart (customizable duration).
A labeled zone helps users track how price reacts to it throughout the session.
Optional Retest Alerts
Alerts you when price re-enters the zone — a potential reaction point used by SMC traders.
Customization Options
Set your preferred session time window
Adjust zone duration (in bars)
Customize label font size, colors, and visibility
Enable/disable alert on retest
📈 Why the First FVG Matters:
Time-Sensitive Setup: The first FVG typically forms no earlier than 9:31 AM ET and represents a potential “time distortion” or imbalance zone created by aggressive market participants during the open.
Behavioral Study: Many traders journal how price behaves around this zone each day — whether it acts as support, resistance, or gets traded through later in the session.
Predictive Value: Observing how this zone is respected or broken can provide anticipatory insight into intraday price action, rather than reactive analysis.
Great for New Traders: This opening FVG is often recommended as a starting reference point for building trade models and understanding how institutional imbalances unfold.
🚀 What Makes It Unique:
This tool doesn’t spam your chart with every FVG. It laser-focuses on a single, time-bound zone backed by institutional logic — the first presented imbalance of the day during the opening range.
Use it to:
Monitor price behavior around early inefficiencies
Plan journal entries and pattern recognition
Align intraday setups with a high-probability SMC model
Whether you’re scalping, journaling market structure, or refining entries based on liquidity behavior — this script helps you make the first 30 minutes count.
Trading Sessions [BigBeluga]
This indicator brings Smart Money Concept (ICT) session logic to life by plotting key global trading sessions with volume and delta analytics. It not only highlights session ranges but also tracks their midpoints — which often act as intraday support/resistance levels.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Visual session boxes: Plots boxes for Tokyo, London, New York, and Sydney sessions based on user-defined UTC+0 time ranges.
Volume & delta metrics: Displays total volume and delta volume (buy–sell difference) within each session.
Mid, High & Low Range Extension: Once a session ends, the high, low, and midpoint levels automatically extend — ideal for detecting SR zones.
Session labels: Each box includes a label with session name, time, volume, and delta for quick reference.
Custom session control: Enable or disable sessions individually and configure start/end times.
Clean aesthetics: Transparent shaded boxes with subtle borders make it easy to overlay without clutter.
Sessions Dashboard: Shows the time range of each session and tells you whether the session is currently active.
🔵 USAGE
Enable the sessions you want to monitor (e.g., New York or Tokyo) from the settings.
Use session volume and delta values to gauge the strength and direction of institutional activity.
Watch for price interaction with the extended range — it often acts as dynamic support/resistance after the session ends.
Overlay it with liquidity tools or breaker blocks for intraday strategy alignment.
🔵 EXAMPLES
Extended Future Range acted as resistance/support.
Delta value helped confirm bullish pressure during New York open.
Multiple sessions helped identify kill zone overlaps and high-volume turns.
Trading Sessions is more than just a visual scheduler — it's a precision tool for traders who align with session-based volume dynamics and ICT methodology. Use it to define high-probability zones, confirm volume shifts, and read deeper into the true intent behind market structure.
Wavelet Smoothed Moving Average (TechnoBlooms)Wavelet Smoothed Moving Average (WSMA) is a part of the Quantum Price Theory (QPT) Series of indicators.
Overview:
The Wavelet Smoothed Moving Average (WSMA) is a trend-following indicator inspired by multi-level Haar Wavelet decomposition. Rather than using traditional wavelet basis functions, it emulates the core wavelet concept of multi-resolution analysis using nested simple moving averages (SMA).
How It Works:
WSMA applies three levels of smoothing:
• Level 1: SMA on price (base smoothing)
• Level 2: SMA on Level 1 output (further denoising)
• Level 3: SMA on Level 2 output (final approximation)
Why Use WSMA:
• Multi-Level Smoothing: Captures price structure across multiple time scales, unlike single-length MAs.
• Noise Reduction: Filters out short-term volatility and focuses on the underlying trend.
• Low Lag, High Clarity: Unlike traditional moving averages that react slowly or miss subtle shifts, WSMA’s layered smoothing delivers cleaner and more adaptive trend detection.
Unique Value:
• Wavelet-Inspired Design: Mimics core wavelet decomposition logic without the complexity of downsampling or basis functions.
• Perfect for Trend Confirmation: The final line (a3) can act as a trend filter, while the detail levels can help identify momentum shifts and volatility bursts.
• Fits Into Quantum Price Theory: As part of the QPT framework, WSMA bridges scientific theory with trading application, giving traders a deeper understanding of market structure and signal compression.
Weekly Open (Current Week Only)📘 Indicator Name: Weekly Open (Current Week Only)
📝 Description:
This indicator plots a horizontal line representing the weekly open price, visible only during the current trading week. At the beginning of each new week (based on TradingView’s weekly time segmentation), the indicator captures the open price of the first candle and draws a constant line across the chart until the week ends. Once the new week begins, the line resets and updates with the new weekly open.
🎯 How to Use – ICT Concepts Integration (Weekly Profile):
This tool is designed to complement ICT (Inner Circle Trader) trading strategies, particularly within the weekly profile framework, by offering a clear and persistent visual of the weekly open, which is a critical reference point in ICT’s market structure theory.
✅ Use Cases:
Directional Bias:
According to ICT concepts, price trading above the weekly open suggests a bullish bias for the week, while trading below it implies bearish conditions.
Traders can use the weekly open line to align their intraweek trades with higher timeframe directional bias.
Dealing Ranges:
Weekly open helps frame the weekly dealing range, especially when combined with other levels like weekly high/low or previous week’s range.
It allows traders to identify potential liquidity pools or areas where price may seek to rebalance.
Mean Reversion Entries:
Price often reverts to or reacts from the weekly open. Traders may use this as a target or entry level, particularly during Monday/Tuesday setups.
Works well in conjunction with concepts like OTE (Optimal Trade Entry) and Judas Swings.
Risk Management:
Acts as a clean and visual anchor to structure stop losses or take-profits based on weekly bias shifts.

Unlike traditional RSI models, which treat every market environment the same, this version adapts in real-time based on how similar past conditions evolved, offering an analytical edge without relying on predictive assumptions.
Key Features:
🔁 KNN-Based RSI Refinement
This indicator uses a machine learning algorithm (K-Nearest Neighbors) to compare current RSI and price action characteristics to similar historical conditions. The resulting RSI is weighted accordingly, producing a dynamically adjusted value that reflects historical context.
📈 Multi-Feature Similarity Analysis
Pattern similarity is calculated using up to five customizable features:
RSI level
RSI momentum
Volatility
Linear regression slope
Price momentum
Users can adjust how many features are used to tailor the behavior of the KNN logic.
🧠 Machine Learning Weight Control
The influence of the machine learning model on the final RSI output can be fine-tuned using a simple slider. This lets you blend traditional RSI and machine learning-enhanced RSI to suit your preferred level of adaptation.
🎛️ Adaptive Filtering
Additional smoothing options (Kalman Filter, ALMA, Double EMA) can be applied to the RSI, offering better visual clarity and helping to reduce noise in high-frequency environments.
🎨 Visual & Accessibility Settings
Custom color palettes, including support for color vision deficiencies, ensure that trend coloring remains readable for all users. A built-in neon mode adds high-contrast visuals to improve RSI visibility across dark or light themes.
How It Works:
Similarity Matching with KNN:
At each candle, the current RSI and optional market characteristics are compared to historical bars using a KNN search. The algorithm selects the closest matches and averages their RSI values, weighted by similarity. The more similar the pattern, the greater its influence.
Feature-Based Weighting:
Similarity is determined using normalized values of the selected features, which gives a more refined result than RSI alone. You can choose to use only 1 (RSI) or up to all 5 features for deeper analysis.
Filtering & Blending:
After the machine learning-enhanced RSI is calculated, it can be optionally smoothed using advanced filters to suppress short-term noise or sharp spikes. This makes it easier to evaluate RSI signals in different volatility regimes.
Parameters Explained:
📊 RSI Settings:
Set the base RSI length and select your preferred smoothing method from 10+ moving average types (e.g., EMA, ALMA, TEMA).
🧠 Machine Learning Controls:
Enable or disable the KNN engine
Select how many nearest neighbors to compare (K)
Choose the number of features used in similarity detection
Control how much the machine learning engine affects the RSI calculation
🔍 Filtering Options:
Enable one of several advanced smoothing techniques (Kalman Filter, ALMA, Double EMA) to adjust the indicator’s reactivity and stability.
📏 Threshold Levels:
Define static overbought/oversold boundaries or reference dynamically adjusted thresholds based on historical context identified by the KNN algorithm.
🎨 Visual Enhancements:
Select between trend-following or impulse coloring styles. Customize color palettes to accommodate different types of color blindness. Enable neon-style effects for visual clarity.
Use Cases:
Swing & Trend Traders
Can use the indicator to explore how current RSI readings compare to similar market phases, helping to assess trend strength or potential turning points.
Intraday Traders
Benefit from adjustable filters and fast-reacting smoothing to reduce noise in shorter timeframes while retaining contextual relevance.
Discretionary Analysts
Use the adaptive OB/OS thresholds and visual cues to supplement broader confluence zones or market structure analysis.
Customization Tips:
Higher Volatility Periods: Use more neighbors and enable filtering to reduce noise.
Lower Volatility Markets: Use fewer features and disable filtering for quicker RSI adaptation.
Deeper Contextual Analysis: Increase KNN lookback and raise the feature count to refine pattern recognition.
Accessibility Needs: Switch to Deuteranopia or Monochrome mode for clearer visuals in specific color vision conditions.
Final Thoughts:
The Machine Learning RSI combines familiar momentum logic with statistical context derived from historical similarity analysis. It does not attempt to predict price action but rather contextualizes RSI behavior with added nuance. This makes it a valuable tool for those looking to elevate traditional RSI workflows with adaptive, research-driven enhancements.
Heiken Ashi Supertrend ADXHeiken Ashi Supertrend ADX Indicator
Overview
This indicator combines the power of Heiken Ashi candles, Supertrend indicator, and ADX filter to identify strong trend movements across multiple timeframes. Designed primarily for the cryptocurrency market but adaptable to any tradable asset, this system focuses on capturing momentum in established trends while employing a sophisticated triple-layer stop loss mechanism to protect capital and secure profits.
Strategy Mechanics
Entry Signals
The strategy uses a unique blend of technical signals to identify high-probability trade entries:
Heiken Ashi Candles: Looks specifically for Heiken Ashi candles with minimal or no wicks, which signal strong momentum and trend continuation. These "full-bodied" candles represent periods where price moved decisively in one direction with minimal retracement. These are overlayed onto normal candes for more accuarte signalling and plotting
Supertrend Filter: Confirms the underlying trend direction using the Supertrend indicator (default factor: 3.0, ATR period: 10). Entries are aligned with the prevailing Supertrend direction.
ADX Filter (Optional) : Can be enabled to focus only on stronger trending conditions, filtering out choppy or ranging markets. When enabled, trades only trigger when ADX is above the specified threshold (default: 25).
Exit Signals
Positions are closed when either:
An opposing signal appears (Heiken Ashi candle with no wick in the opposite direction)
Any of the three stop loss mechanisms are triggered
Triple-Layer Stop Loss System
The strategy employs a sophisticated three-tier stop loss approach:
ATR Trailing Stop: Adapts to market volatility and locks in profits as the trend extends. This stop moves in the direction of the trade, capturing profit without exiting too early during normal price fluctuations.
Swing Point Stop: Uses natural market structure (recent highs/lows over a lookback period) to place stops at logical support/resistance levels, honoring the market's own rhythm.
Insurance Stop: A percentage-based safety net that protects against sudden adverse moves immediately after entry. This is particularly valuable when the swing point stop might be positioned too far from entry, providing immediate capital protection.
Optimization Features
Customizable Filters : All components (Supertrend, ADX) can be enabled/disabled to adapt to different market conditions
Adjustable Parameters : Fine-tune ATR periods, Supertrend factors, and ADX thresholds
Flexible Stop Loss Settings : Each of the three stop loss mechanisms can be individually enabled/disabled with customizable parameters
Best Practices for Implementation

TimeMapTimeMap is a visual price-reference indicator designed to help traders rapidly visualize how current price levels relate to significant historical closing prices. It overlays your chart with reference lines representing past weekly, monthly, quarterly (3-month), semi-annual (6-month), and annual closing prices. By clearly plotting these historical price references, TimeMap helps traders quickly gauge price position relative to historical market structure, aiding in the identification of trends, support/resistance levels, and potential reversals.
How it Works:
The indicator calculates the precise number of historical bars corresponding to weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, and annual intervals, dynamically adjusting according to your chart’s timeframe (intraday, daily, weekly, monthly) and chosen market type (Stocks US, Crypto, Forex, or Futures). Historical closing prices from these periods are plotted directly on your chart as horizontal reference lines.
For intraday traders, the script accurately calculates historical offsets considering regular and extended trading sessions (e.g., pre-market and after-hours sessions for US stocks), ensuring correct positioning of historical lines.
User-Configurable Inputs Explained in Detail:
Market Type:
Allows you to specify your trading instrument type, automatically adjusting calculations for:
- Stocks US (default): 390 minutes per regular session (780 minutes if extended hours enabled), 5 trading days/week.
- Crypto: 1440 minutes/day, 7 trading days/week.
- Forex: 1440 minutes/day, 5 trading days/week.
- Futures: 1320 minutes/day, 5 trading days/week.
Show Weekly Close:
When enabled, plots a line at the exact closing price from one week ago. Provides short-term context and helps identify recent price momentum.
Show Monthly Close:
When enabled, plots a line at the exact closing price from one month ago. Helpful for evaluating medium-term price positioning and monthly trend strength.
Show 3-Month Close:
When enabled, plots a line at the exact closing price from three months ago. Useful for assessing quarterly market shifts, intermediate trend changes, and broader market sentiment.
Show 6-Month Close:
When enabled, plots a line at the exact closing price from six months ago. Useful for identifying semi-annual trends, significant price pivots, and longer-term support/resistance levels.
Show 1-Year Close:
When enabled, plots a line at the exact closing price from one year ago. Excellent for assessing long-term market direction and key annual price levels.
Enable Smoothing:
Activates a Simple Moving Average (SMA) smoothing of historical reference lines, reducing volatility and providing clearer visual references. Recommended for traders preferring less volatile reference levels.
Smoothing Length:
Determines the number of bars used in calculating the SMA smoothing of historical lines. Higher values result in smoother but slightly delayed reference lines; lower values offer more immediate yet more volatile levels.
Use Extended Hours (Intraday Only):
When enabled (only applicable for Stocks US), it accounts for pre-market and after-hours trading sessions, providing accurate intraday historical line calculations based on extended sessions (typically 780 minutes/day total).
Important Notes and Compliance:
- This indicator does not provide trading signals, recommendations, or predictions. It serves purely as a visual analytical tool to supplement traders’ existing methods.
- Historical lines plotted are strictly based on past available price data; the indicator never accesses future data or data outside the scope of Pine Script’s standard capabilities.
- The script incorporates built-in logic to avoid runtime errors if insufficient historical data exists for a selected timeframe, ensuring robustness even with limited historical bars.
- TimeMap is original work developed exclusively by Julien Eche (@Julien_Eche). It does not reuse or replicate third-party or existing open-source scripts.
Recommended Best Practices:
- Use TimeMap as a complementary analytical reference, not as a standalone strategy or trade decision-making tool.
- Adapt displayed historical periods and smoothing settings based on your trading style and market approach.
- Default plot colors are optimized for readability on dark-background charts; adjust as necessary according to your preference and chart color scheme.
This script is published open-source to benefit the entire TradingView community and fully complies with all TradingView script publishing rules and guidelines.

Rally Base Drop SND Pivots [LuxAlgo]The Rally Base Drop SND Pivots indicator uses "Rally", "Base", and "Drop" Candles to determine pivot points at which supply and demand (SND) levels are drawn.
🔶 USAGE
Rally, Base, and Drop (RBD) candles create a formula for seeing market structure through a fixed methodology. We are able to use this concept to point out pivot areas where Rallies and Drops directly meet.
The RBD SND Pivots are similar to traditionally identified "fractal" pivot points, with one key difference.
RBD SND Pivots detect a specific number of Rally and Drop candles directly back-to-back, requiring one side of the pivot to contain entirely green candles and the other to be entirely red candles or vice versa.
Since these pivot levels are based on Rally, Base, and Drop candles, the method directly implements rigid logic to further structure a trading system when utilizing these pivot levels with traditional SND concepts.
Furthermore, by implementing this logic when looking for pivots, a significant portion of potential noise is naturally filtered out.
🔶 DETAILS
In typical SND systems, the term "Base" is used for multiple meanings.
In this indicator, the base is a product of a pivot being formed. Once a Pivot is identified, the "Base" is marked as the first Rally or Drop of the second half of the pivot formation.
Once the pivot is identified, the high or low of the base candle is used to measure the pivot level.
🔶 SETTINGS
Length: Sets the number of Rally and Drop Candles that the script will require to identify pivots.
Ex. "3" = 3 Rally followed by 3 Drop
Historical Lookback: Hides historic levels based on a bar # Lookback from the current bar.
When set to 0, all Levels will display. (0 by default)

MTF Fractals [RunRox]🔽 MTF Fractals is a powerful indicator designed to visualize fractals from multiple timeframes directly on your chart, highlight liquidity sweeps at these fractal levels, and provide several additional features we’ll cover in detail below.
We created this indicator because we couldn’t find a suitable tool that met our specific needs on TradingView. Therefore, we decided to develop a valuable indicator for the entire TradingView community, combining simplicity and versatility.
⁉️ WHAT IS A FRACTALS?
In trading, a fractal is a technical analysis pattern composed of five consecutive candles, typically highlighting local market turning points. Specifically, a fractal high is formed when a candle’s high is higher than the highs of the two candles on either side, whereas a fractal low occurs when a candle’s low is lower than the lows of the two adjacent candles on both sides.
Traders use fractals as reference points for identifying significant support and resistance levels, potential reversal areas, and liquidity zones within price action analysis. Below is a screenshot illustrating clearly formed fractals on the chart.
📙 FRACTAL FORMATION
Here’s how fractals form depending on your chosen setting (3, 5, 7, or 9):
▶️ 3-bar fractal – forms when the central candle is higher (for highs) or lower (for lows) than one candle on each side.
▶️ 5-bar fractal – forms when the central candle is higher or lower than two candles on both sides.
▶️ 7-bar fractal – forms when the central candle is higher or lower compared to the three candles on each side.
▶️ 9-bar fractal – forms similarly but requires four candles on each side, making the fractal significantly more reliable and robust.
A higher number of bars ensures stronger fractal levels, highlighting more significant potential reversal points on the chart.
Now that we’ve covered the theory behind fractal formation, let’s explore the indicator’s functionality in more detail.
Below, I’ll explain each feature clearly and illustrate how you can effectively utilize this indicator in your trading.
🕐 MULTI-TIMEFRAME FRACTALS
We realized that displaying fractals only from the current timeframe isn’t always convenient, so we’ve introduced Multi-Timeframe Fractals into this indicator.
Now you can easily display fractals from higher timeframes directly on your current chart, providing you with broader market context and clearer trading signals.
Fractals from Current Timeframe – Fractals identified directly on the chart’s current timeframe.
Fractals from Higher Timeframes – Fractals sourced from higher timeframes and displayed clearly on your current chart for enhanced market perspective.
📈 FRACTAL LINES
Since fractals represent areas of high liquidity, we’ve added an option to extend fractal levels horizontally as Fractal Lines across your chart.
This feature allows you to clearly visualize critical liquidity areas from higher timeframes, directly on your current timeframe chart, as demonstrated in the screenshot below.
With this approach, you can clearly visualize significant fractal levels from higher timeframes directly on your current chart - for example, projecting fractals from the 1-hour (1H) timeframe onto a 3-minute (3m) chart. ✅ This helps you easily identify critical liquidity areas and potential reversal zones without the need to switch between multiple timeframes.
💰 LIQUDITY SWEEP (LIQUDITY GRAB)
To enhance your trading experience, we’ve introduced a feature that clearly identifies liquidity sweeps of fractal levels.
A Liquidity Sweep occurs when a candle closes beyond a fractal line, leaving a wick that pierces through it, signaling that liquidity has been collected at this level.
Below, you’ll find two examples illustrating this functionality:
▶️ Fractal lines from the current timeframe
▶️ Fractal lines projected from higher timeframes
The first example illustrates liquidity being swept from fractals on the current timeframe .
Here, the candle clearly closes beyond the fractal line, leaving a wick through it. This indicates a liquidity sweep at the fractal level, visually highlighting a potential reversal or continuation opportunity directly on your chart.
In the second example, fractals from the higher timeframe are projected onto your current chart.
When a candle on your current timeframe closes beyond an HTF fractal line - leaving a wick through this level - the indicator highlights it clearly. This signals to traders a potential reversal zone, indicating that liquidity has been swept, and price may reverse or significantly react from this area.
You can also enable the display of additional labels on the chart. These labels clearly mark liquidity sweeps at fractal levels, making it easier to visually identify potential reversal points directly on your chart.
⚙️ SETTINGS
Below are the indicator settings with detailed explanations for each parameter.
🔷 Bars in Fractal – Number of candles to the right and left required to form a fractal.
🔷 Fractal Timeframe – Select the timeframe from which you want to display fractals on the current chart.
