[CS] NWMA Moving Average 3.0PineScript Implementation of Moving Average 3.0 first referenced by Manfred G. Dürschner as New wma or Nwma.
See amazing original paper Moving Averages 3.0 at page 27:
ifta.org
As shown in the picture Nwma is performing better than DEMA, TEMA, EMA, and other common used moving averages such as Hull MA that is prone to overshooting. With NWMA lag is extremely reduced.

Nyquist Criterion
In signal processing theory, the application of a MA to itself can be seen as a Sampling procedure. The sampled signal is the MA (referred to as MA1) and the sampling signal is the MA as well (referred to as MA2). If additional periodic cycles which are not included in the price series are to be avoided sampling must obey the Nyquist Criterion . With the cycle period as parameter, the usual one in Technical Analysis, the Nyquist Criterion reads as follows: n1 = λ*n2 , with λ ≥ 2. n1 is the cycle period of the sampled signal to which a sampling signal with cycle period n2 is applied. n1 must at least be twice as large as n2. In Mulloy´s and Ehlers´ approaches (referred to as Moving Averages 2.0) both cycle periods are equal. Moving Averages 3.0 Using the Nyquist Criterion there is a relation by which the application of a MA to itself can be described more precisely. In figure 2 a price series C (black line), one MA (MA1, red line) with lag L1 to the price series and another MA with lag L2 to MA1 (MA2, blue line) are illustrated. Based on the approximation and the relations described in figure 2 the following equation holds: (1) D1/D2 = (C – MA1)/(MA1 – MA2) = L1/L2 According to the lag formulas in the introduction L1/L2 can be written as follows:
α := L1/L2 = (n1 – 1)/(n2 – 1).
In this expression denominator 2 for the SMA and EMA as well as denominator 3 for the WMA are missing. α is therefore valid for all three MAs.
Using the Nyquist Criterion one gets for α the following result:
(2) α = λ* (n1 – 1)/(n1 – λ).
α put in (1) and C replaced by the approximation term NMA, the notation for the new MA, one gets:
NMA = (1 +α) MA1 – α MA2.
In detail, equation (2) reads as follows:
(3) NMA = (1 + α) MA1 – α
MA2 ,
(4) α = λ* (n1 – 1)/(n1 – λ), with λ ≥ 2.
(3) and (4) are equations for a group of MAs (notation: Moving Averages 3.0). They are independent of the choice of an MA. As the WMA shows the smallest lag (see introduction), it should generally be the first choice for the NMA. n1 = n2 results in the value 1 for α and λ, respectively. Then equation (3) passes into Ehlers´ formula. Thus Ehlers´ formula is included in the NMA formula as limiting value. It follows from a short calculation that the lag for NMA results in a theoretical value zero.

General Filter Estimator-An Experiment on Estimating EverythingIntroduction
The last indicators i posted where about estimating the least squares moving average, the task of estimating a filter is a funny one because its always a challenge and it require to be really creative. After the last publication of the 1LC-LSMA , who estimate the lsma with 1 line of code and only 3 functions i felt like i could maybe make something more flexible and less complex with the ability to approximate any filter output. Its possible, but the methods to do so are not something that pinescript can do, we have to use another base for our estimation using coefficients, so i inspired myself from the alpha-beta filter and i started writing the code.
Calculation and The Estimation Coefficients
Simplicity is the key word, its also my signature style, if i want something good it should be simple enough, so my code look like that :
p = length/beta
a = close - nz(b ,close)
b = nz(b ,close) + a/p*gamma
3 line, 2 function, its a good start, we could put everything in one line of code but its easier to see it this way. length control the smoothing amount of the filter, for any filter f(Period) Period should be equal to length and f(Period) = p , it would be inconvenient to have to use a different length period than the one used in the filter we want to estimate (imagine our estimation with length = 50 estimating an ema with period = 100) , this is where the first coefficients beta will be useful, it will allow us to leave length as it is. In general beta will be greater than 1, the greater it will be the less lag the filter will have, this coefficient will be useful to estimate low lagging filters, gamma however is the coefficient who will estimate lagging filters, in general it will range around .
We can get loose easily with those coefficients estimation but i will leave a coefficients table in the code for estimating popular filters, and some comparison below.
Estimating a Simple Moving Average
Of course, the boxcar filter, the running mean, the simple moving average, its an easy filter to use and calculate.
For an SMA use the following coefficients :
beta = 2
gamma = 0.5
Our filter is in red and the moving average in white with both length at 50 (This goes for every comparison we will do)
Its a bit imprecise but its a simple moving average, not the most interesting thing to estimate.
Estimating an Exponential Moving Average
The ema is a great filter because its length times more computing efficient than a simple moving average. For the EMA use the following coefficients :
beta = 3
gamma = 0.4
N.B : The EMA is rougher than the SMA, so it filter less, this is why its faster and closer to the price
Estimating The Hull Moving Average
Its a good filter for technical analysis with tons of use, lets try to estimate it ! For the HMA use the following coefficients :
beta = 4
gamma = 0.85
Looks ok, of course if you find better coefficients i will test them and actualize the coefficient table, i will also put a thank message.
Estimating a LSMA
Of course i was gonna estimate it, but this time this estimation does not have anything a lsma have, no moving average, no standard deviation, no correlation coefficient, lets do it.
For the LSMA use the following coefficients :
beta = 3.5
gamma = 0.9
Its far from being the best estimation, but its more efficient than any other i previously made.
Estimating the Quadratic Least Square Moving Average
I doubted about this one but it can be approximated as well. For the QLSMA use the following coefficients :
beta = 5.25
gamma = 1
Another ok estimate, the estimate filter a bit more than needed but its ok.
Jurik Moving Average
Its far from being a filter that i like and its a bit old. For the comparison i will use the JMA provided by @everget described in this article : c.mql5.com
For the JMA use the following coefficients :
for phase = 0
beta = pow*2 (pow is a parameter in the Jma)
gamma = 0.5
Here length = 50, phase = 0, pow = 5 so beta = 10
Looks pretty good considering the fact that the Jma use an adaptive architecture.
Discussion
I let you the task to judge if the estimation is good or not, my motivation was to estimate such filters using the less amount of calculations as possible, in itself i think that the code is quite elegant like all the codes of IIR filters (IIR Filters = Infinite Impulse Response : Filters using recursion) .
It could be possible to have a better estimate of the coefficients using optimization methods like the gradient descent. This is not feasible in pinescript but i could think about it using python or R.
Coefficients should be dependant of length but this would lead to a massive work, the variation of the estimation using fixed coefficients when using different length periods is just ok if we can allow some errors of precision.
I dont think it should be possible to estimate adaptive filter relying a lot on their adaptive parameter/smoothing constant except by making our coefficients adaptive (gamma could be)
So at the end ? What make a filter truly unique ? From my point of sight the architecture of a filter and the problem he is trying to solve is what make him unique rather than its output result. If you become a signal, hide yourself into noise, then look at the filters trying to find you, what a challenging game, this is why we need filters.
Conclusion
I wanted to give a simple filter estimator relying on two coefficients in order to estimate both lagging and low-lagging filters. I will try to give more precise estimate and update the indicator with new coefficients.

Tillson T3 Moving Average MTFMULTIPLE TIME FRAME version of Tillson T3 Moving Average Indicator
Developed by Tim Tillson, the T3 Moving Average is considered superior -1.60% to traditional moving averages as it is smoother, more responsive and thus performs better in ranging market conditions as well. However, it bears the disadvantage of overshooting the price as it attempts to realign itself to current market conditions.
It incorporates a smoothing technique which allows it to plot curves more gradual than ordinary moving averages and with a smaller lag. Its smoothness is derived from the fact that it is a weighted sum of a single EMA , double EMA , triple EMA and so on. When a trend is formed, the price action will stay above or below the trend during most of its progression and will hardly be touched by any swings. Thus, a confirmed penetration of the T3 MA and the lack of a following reversal often indicates the end of a trend.
The T3 Moving Average generally produces entry signals similar to other moving averages and thus is traded largely in the same manner. Here are several assumptions:
If the price action is above the T3 Moving Average and the indicator is headed upward, then we have a bullish trend and should only enter long trades (advisable for novice/intermediate traders). If the price is below the T3 Moving Average and it is edging lower, then we have a bearish trend and should limit entries to short. Below you can see it visualized in a trading platform.
Although the T3 MA is considered as one of the best swing following indicators that can be used on all time frames and in any market, it is still not advisable for novice/intermediate traders to increase their risk level and enter the market during trading ranges (especially tight ones). Thus, for the purposes of this article we will limit our entry signals only to such in trending conditions.
Once the market is displaying trending behavior, we can place with-trend entry orders as soon as the price pulls back to the moving average (undershooting or overshooting it will also work). As we know, moving averages are strong resistance/support levels, thus the price is more likely to rebound from them and resume its with-trend direction instead of penetrating it and reversing the trend.
And so, in a bull trend, if the market pulls back to the moving average, we can fairly safely assume that it will bounce off the T3 MA and resume upward momentum, thus we can go long. The same logic is in force during a bearish trend .
And last but not least, the T3 Moving Average can be used to generate entry signals upon crossing with another T3 MA with a longer trackback period (just like any other moving average crossover). When the fast T3 crosses the slower one from below and edges higher, this is called a Golden Cross and produces a bullish entry signal. When the faster T3 crosses the slower one from above and declines further, the scenario is called a Death Cross and signifies bearish conditions.
I Personally added a second T3 line with a volume factor of 0.618 (Fibonacci Ratio) and length of 3 (fibonacci number) which can be added by selecting the box in the input section. traders can combine the two lines to have Buy/Sell signals from the crosses.

About INVERSE FISHER TRANSFORM:
The purpose of technical indicators is to help with your timing decisions to buy or sell. Hopefully, the signals are clear and unequivocal. However, more often than not your decision to pull the trigger is accompanied by crossing your fingers. Even if you have placed only a few trades you know the drill. In this article I will show you a way to make your oscillator-type indicators make clear black-or-white indication of the time to buy or sell. I will do this by using the Inverse Fisher Transform to alter the Probability Distribution Function (PDF) of your indicators. In the past12 I have noted that the PDF of price and indicators do not have a Gaussian, or Normal, probability distribution. A Gaussian PDF is the familiar bell-shaped curve where the long “tails” mean that wide deviations from the mean occur with relatively low probability. The Fisher Transform can be applied to almost any normalized data set to make the resulting PDF nearly Gaussian, with the result that the turning points are sharply peaked and easy to identify. The Fisher Transform is defined by the equation
1)
Whereas the Fisher Transform is expansive, the Inverse Fisher Transform is compressive. The Inverse Fisher Transform is found by solving equation 1 for x in terms of y. The Inverse Fisher Transform is:
2)
The transfer response of the Inverse Fisher Transform is shown in Figure 1. If the input falls between –0.5 and +0.5, the output is nearly the same as the input. For larger absolute values (say, larger than 2), the output is compressed to be no larger than unity. The result of using the Inverse Fisher Transform is that the output has a very high probability of being either +1 or –1. This bipolar probability distribution makes the Inverse Fisher Transform ideal for generating an indicator that provides clear buy and sell signals.

Big Snapper Alerts R2.0 by JustUncleLThis is a diversified Binary Option or Scalping Alert indicator originally designed for lower Time Frame Trend or Swing trading. Although you will find it a useful tool for higher time frames as well.
The Alerts are generated by the changing direction of the ColouredMA (HullMA by default), you then have the choice of selecting the Directional filtering on these signals or a Bollinger swing reversal filter.
The filters include:
Type 1 - The three MAs (EMAs 21,55,89 by default) in various combinations or by themselves. When only one directional MA selected then direction filter is given by ColouredMA above(up)/below(down) selected MA. If more than one MA selected the direction is given by MAs being in correct order for trend direction.
Type 2 - The SuperTrend direction is used to filter ColouredMA signals.
Type 3 - Bollinger Band Outside In is used to filter ColouredMA for swing reversals.
Type 4 - No directional filtering, all signals from the ColouredMA are shown.
Notes:
Each Type can be combined with another type to form more complex filtration.
Alerts can also be disabled completely if you just want one indicator with one colouredMA and/or 3xMAs and/or Bollinger Bands and/or SuperTrend painted on the chart.
Warning:
Be aware that combining Bollinger OutsideIn swing filter and a directional filter can be counter productive as they are opposites. So careful consideration is needed when combining Bollinger OutsideIn with any of the directional filters.
Hints:
For Binary Options try ColouredMA = HullMA(13) or HullMA(8) with Type 2 or 3 Filter.
When using Trend filters SuperTrend and/or 3xMA Trend, you will find if price reverses and breaks back through the Big Fat Signal line, then this can be a good reversal trade.
Some explanation about the what Hull Moving average and ideas of how the generated in Big Snapper can be used:
tradingsim.com
forextradingstrategies4u.com
Inspiration from @vdubus
Big Snapper's Bollinger OutsideIn Swing filter in Action:
2-step Moving Average by HAH Financial- longer SMAs tend to sit too far from daily action
- shorter SMAs are too jittery
- the idea here is to create a smooth line, that is sits much closer to the daily price ranges
- this is achieved by mixing 2 MAs, a longer one and a shorter one
- the long one gives smoothness
- while averaging it with a shorter one, brings it (much in some cases) closer to the daily range
Price Action Doji Harami v0.2 by JustUncleLThis is an updated and final version of this indicator. This version distinguishes between the true Harami and the other Doji candlestick patterns as used with the Heikin Ashi candle charts. These candle patterns indicate a potential trend reversal or pullback.
The patterns identified are:
- Bearish Harami (Red Highlight above Bar):
One to three (default 3) large body Bull (green) candles followed by a small (red)
or no body candle (less than 0.5pip) with wicks top and bottom that are at least 60% of candle.
- Bullish Harami (Green Highlight below Bar):
One to three (default 3) large body Bear (red) candles followed by a small (green)
or no body candle (less than 0.5pip) with wicks top and bottom that are at least 60% of candle.
- Bearish Doji (Fuchsia Highlight above Bar):
One to three (default 3) large body Bull (green) candles followed by a small (green)
with wicks top and bottom that are at least 60% of candle.
- Bullish Doji (Aqua Highlight below Bar):
One to three (default 3) large body Bear (red) candles followed by a small (red)
with wicks top and bottom that are at least 60% of candle.
You can optionally specify how large the candles prior to Harami/Doji are in pips, default is 0 pip.
If you set this to zero then it will have no candle size consideration. You can also specify how many look back candles (1-3) are used in Harami/Doji calculations (default 3).
Included option to perform Calculations purely on Heikin Ashi candles, this helps when you want to see the HA Doji/Harami bars with the normal candle stick chart.
Also can optionally set an alert condition for when Harami/Doji found, this also displays a circle on the bottom of the screen when alert is triggered.
extended session - Regular Opening-Range- JayyOpening Range and some other scripts updated to plot correctly (see comments below.) There are three variations of the fibonacci expansion beyond the opening range and retracements within the opening range of the US Market session - I have not put in the script for the other markets yet.
The three scripts have different uses and strengths:
The extended session script (with the script here below) will plot the opening range whether you are using the extended session or the regular session. (that is to say whether "ext" in the lower right hand corner is highlighted or not.). While in the extended session the opening range has some plotting issues with periods like 13 minutes or any period that is not divisible into 330 mins with a round number outcome (eg 330/60 =5.5. Therefore an hour long opening range has problems in the extended session.
The pre session script is only for the premarket. You can select any opening range period you like. I have set the opening range to be the full premarket session. If you select a different session you will have to unselect "pre open to 9:30 EST for Opening Range?" in the format section. The script defaults to 15 minutes in the "period Of Pre Opening Range?". To go back to the 4 am to 9:30 pre opening range select "pre open to 9:30 EST for Opening Range?" there is no automatic 330 minute selection.
The past days offset script only works in 5 min or 15 minute period. It will show the opening range from up to 20 days past over the current days price action. Use this for the regular session only. 0 shows the current day's opening range. Use the positive integers for number of days back ie 1, 2, 3 etc not -1, -2, -3 etc. The script is preprogrammed to use the current day (0).
Scripts updated to plot correctly: One thing they all have in common is a way of they deal with a somewhat random problem that shifts the plots 4 hours in one direction or the other ie the plot started at 9:30 EST or 1:30PM EST. This issue started to occur approximately June 22, 2015 and impacts any script that tried to use "session" times to manage a plot in my scripts. The issue now seems to have been resolved during this past week.
Just in case the problem reoccurs I have added a "Switch session plot?" to each script. If the plot looks funny check or uncheck the "Switch session plot?" and see the difference. Of course if a new issue crops up it will likely require a different fix.
I have updated all of the scripts shown on this chart. If you are using a script of mine that suffers from the compiler issue then you will find an update on this chart. You can get any and all of the scripts by clicking on the small sideways wishbone on the left middle of the chart. You will see a dialogue box. Then click "make it mine". This will import all of the scripts to your computer and you can play around with them all to decide what you want and what you don't want. This is the easiest way to get all of the scripts in one fell swoop. It is also the easiest way for me to make all of the scripts available. I do not have all of the plots visible since it is too messy and one of the scripts (pre OR) is only for the regular session. To view the scripts click on the blue eye to the right of the script title to show it on this script. If you can only use the regular session. The scripts will all (with the exception of the pre OR) work fine.
If for any reason this script seems flakey refresh the page r try a slightly different period. I have noticed that sometimes randomly the script loves to return to the 5 min OR. This is a very new issue transient issue. As always if you see an issue please let me know.
Cheers Jayy
Camarilla - formula updated for 5 and 6 levelsSince levels 5 and 6 formulas are kind of surrounded in mystery it's difficult to find a widely agreed one.
While for the level 5 there is some consensus the 6th one is hard to find. I updated level 5 with the most common use of lvl 5 formula , some links like this one or from books (Secrets of a Pivot Boss) . Level 6 is a tough one, so please use this one experimentally . If you have other formulas for level 6, let me know. The 5 and 6 lvls are useful in volatile days.

DayFlow VWAP Relay Forex Majors StrategySummary in one paragraph
DayFlow VWAP Relay is a day-trading strategy for major FX pairs on intraday timeframes, demonstrated on EURUSD 15 minutes. It waits for alignment between a daily anchored VWAP regime check, residual percentiles, and lower-timeframe micro flow before suggesting trades. The originality is the fusion of daily VWAP residual percentiles with a live micro-flow score from 1 minute data to switch between fade and breakout behavior inside the same session. Add it to a clean chart and use the markers and alerts.
Scope and intent
• Markets: Major FX pairs such as EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY, AUDUSD, USDCHF, USDCAD
• Timeframes: One minute to one hour
• Default demo in this publication: EURUSD on 15 minutes
• Purpose: Reduce false starts by acting only when context, location and micro flow agree
• Limits: This is a strategy. Orders are simulated on standard candles only
Originality and usefulness
• Core novelty: Residual percentiles to daily anchored VWAP decide “balanced versus expanding day”. A separate 1 minute micro-flow score confirms direction, so the same model fades extremes in balance and rides range breaks in expansion
• Failure modes addressed: Chop fakeouts and unconfirmed breakouts are filtered by the expansion gate and micro-flow threshold
• Testability: Every input is exposed. Bands, background regime color, and markers show why a suggestion appears
• Portable yardstick: Stops and targets are ATR multiples converted to ticks, which transfer across symbols
• Open source status: No reused third-party code that requires attribution
Method overview in plain language
The day is anchored with a VWAP that updates from the daily session start. Price minus VWAP is the residual. Percentiles of that residual measured over a rolling window define location extremes for the current day. A regime score compares residual volatility to price volatility. When expansion is low, the day is treated as balanced and the model fades residual extremes if 1 minute micro flow points back to VWAP. When expansion is high, the model trades breakouts outside the VWAP bands if slope and micro flow agree with the move.
Base measures
• Range basis: True Range smoothed by ATR for stops and targets, length 14
• Return basis: Not required for signals; residuals are absolute price distance to VWAP
Components
• Daily Anchor VWAP Bands. VWAP with standard-deviation bands. Slope sign is used for trend confirmation on breakouts
• Residual Percentiles. Rolling percentiles of close minus VWAP over Signal length. Identify location extremes inside the day
• Expansion Ratio. Standard deviation of residuals divided by standard deviation of price over Signal length. Classifies balanced versus expanding day
• Micro Flow. Net up minus down closes from 1 minute data across a short span, normalized to −1..+1. Confirms direction and avoids fades against pressure
• Session Window optional. Restricts trading to your configured hours to avoid thin periods
• Cooldown optional. Bars to wait after a position closes to prevent immediate re-entry
Fusion rule
Gating rather than weighting. First choose regime by Expansion Ratio versus the Expansion gate. Inside each regime all listed conditions must be true: location test plus micro-flow threshold plus session window plus cooldown. Breakouts also require VWAP slope alignment.
Signal rule
• Long suggestion on balanced day: residual at or below the lower percentile and micro flow positive above the gate while inside session and cooldown is satisfied
• Short suggestion on balanced day: residual at or above the upper percentile and micro flow negative below the gate while inside session and cooldown is satisfied
• Long suggestion on expanding day: close above the upper VWAP band, VWAP slope positive, micro flow positive, session and cooldown satisfied
• Short suggestion on expanding day: close below the lower VWAP band, VWAP slope negative, micro flow negative, session and cooldown satisfied
• Positions flip on opposite suggestions or exit by brackets
What you will see on the chart
• Markers on suggestion bars: L for long, S for short
• Exit occurs on reverse signal or when a bracket order is filled
• Reference lines: daily anchored VWAP with upper and lower bands
• Optional background: teal for balanced day, orange for expanding day
Inputs with guidance
Setup
• Signal length. Residual and regime window. Typical 40 to 100. Higher smooths, lower reacts faster
Micro Flow
• Micro TF. Lower timeframe used for micro flow, default 1 minute
• Micro span bars. Count of lower-TF bars. Typical 5 to 20
• Micro flow gate 0..1. Minimum absolute flow. Raising it demands stronger confirmation and reduces trade count
VWAP Bands
• VWAP stdev multiplier. Band width. Typical 0.8 to 1.6. Wider bands reduce breakout frequency and increase fade distance
• Expansion gate 0..3. Threshold to switch from fades to breakouts. Raising it favors fades, lowering it favors breakouts
Sessions
• Use session filter. Enable to trade only inside your window
• Trade window UTC. Default 07:00 to 17:00
Risk
• ATR length. Stop and target basis. Typical 10 to 21
• Stop ATR x. Initial stop distance in ATR multiples
• Target ATR x. Profit target distance in ATR multiples
• Cooldown bars after close. Wait bars before a new entry
• Side. Both, long only, or short only
View
• Show VWAP and bands
• Color bars by residual regime

Realism and responsible publication
No performance claims. Past results never guarantee future outcomes. Fills and slippage vary by venue. Shapes can move while a bar forms and settle on close. Strategies must run on standard candles for signals and orders.
Honest limitations and failure modes
High impact news, session opens, and thin liquidity can invalidate assumptions. Very quiet days can reduce contrast between residuals and price volatility. Session windows use the chart exchange time. If both stop and target are touched within a single bar, TradingView’s standard OHLC price-movement model decides the outcome.
Expect different behavior on illiquid pairs or during holidays. The model is sensitive to session definitions and feed time. Past results never guarantee future outcomes.

[LTS] Marubozu Candle StrategyOVERVIEW
The Marubozu Candle Strategy identifies and trades wickless candles (Marubozu patterns) with dynamic take-profit and stop-loss levels based on market volatility. This indicator combines traditional Japanese candlestick pattern recognition with modern volatility-adjusted risk management and includes a comprehensive performance tracking dashboard.
A Marubozu candle is a powerful continuation pattern characterized by the complete absence of wicks on one side, indicating strong directional momentum. This strategy specifically detects:
- Bullish Marubozu: Close > Open AND Low = Open (no lower wick)
- Bearish Marubozu: Close < Open AND High = Open (no upper wick)
When price returns to test these levels, the indicator generates trading signals with predefined risk-reward parameters.
CORE METHODOLOGY
Detection Logic:
The script scans each bar for Marubozu formations using precise price comparisons. When a wickless candle appears, a horizontal line extends from the opening price, marking it as a potential support (bullish) or resistance (bearish) level. These levels remain active until price touches them or until the maximum line limit is reached.
EMA Filter (Optional):
An exponential moving average filter enhances signal quality by requiring proper trend alignment. For bullish signals, price must be above the EMA when touching the level. For bearish signals, price must be below the EMA. This filter reduces counter-trend trades and improves win rates in trending markets. Users can disable this filter for range-bound conditions.
Dynamic Risk Management:
The strategy employs ATR-based (Average True Range) position sizing rather than fixed point values. This approach adapts to market volatility automatically:
- In low volatility: Tighter stops and targets
- In high volatility: Wider stops and targets proportional to market movement
Default settings use a 2:1 reward-to-risk ratio (1x ATR for take-profit, 0.5x ATR for stop-loss), but users can adjust these multipliers to match their trading style.
HOW IT WORKS
Step 1 - Pattern Detection:
On each bar, the indicator evaluates whether the candle qualifies as a Marubozu by comparing the high, low, open, and close prices. When detected, the opening price becomes the key level.
Step 2 - Level Management:
Horizontal lines extend from each Marubozu's opening price. The indicator maintains two separate arrays: one for unbroken levels (actively extending) and one for broken levels (historical reference). Users can configure how many of each type to display, preventing chart clutter while maintaining relevant context.
Step 3 - Signal Generation:
When price returns to touch a Marubozu level, the indicator evaluates the EMA filter condition. If the filter passes (or is disabled), the script draws TP/SL boxes showing the expected profit and loss zones based on current ATR values.
Step 4 - Trade Tracking:
Each valid signal enters the tracking system, which monitors subsequent price action to determine outcomes. The script identifies whether the take-profit or stop-loss was hit first (discarding trades where both trigger on the same candle to avoid ambiguous results).
PERFORMANCE DASHBOARD
The integrated dashboard provides real-time strategy analytics to automatically convert results to dollar values for any instrument:
Tracked Metrics:
- Total Trades: Complete count of closed positions
- Wins/Losses: Individual counts with color coding
- Win Rate: Success percentage with dynamic color (green >= 50%, red < 50%)
- Total P&L: Cumulative profit/loss in dollars
- Avg Win: Mean dollar amount per winning trade
- Avg Loss: Mean dollar amount per losing trade
NOTE: The dollar values shown in the dashboard are for trading only a single share/contract/etc. You will need to manually multiply those numbers by the amount of shares/contracts you are trading to get a true value.
The dollar conversion works automatically across all markets:
- Futures contracts (ES, NQ, CL, etc.) use their contract specifications
- Forex pairs use standard lot calculations
- Stocks and crypto use their respective point values
This eliminates manual calculation and provides immediate performance feedback in meaningful currency terms.
CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS
ATR Settings:
- ATR Period: Lookback length for volatility calculation (default: 14)
- TP Multiplier: Take-profit distance as multiple of ATR (default: 3.0)
- SL Multiplier: Stop-loss distance as multiple of ATR (default: 1.5)
EMA Settings:
- EMA Length: Period for trend filter calculation (default: 9)
- Use EMA Filter: Toggle trend confirmation requirement (default: enabled)
Visual Settings:

- Max Broken Lines: Limit for historical touched lines (default: 5)
Dashboard Settings:
- Show Dashboard: Toggle performance display on/off
- Dashboard Position: Corner placement (4 options)
- Dashboard Size: Text size selection (Tiny/Small/Normal/Large)
HOW TO USE
1. Add the indicator to your chart
2. Adjust ATR multipliers based on your risk tolerance (higher values = more conservative)
3. Configure the EMA filter based on market conditions (enable for trending, disable for ranging)
4. Set line limits to match your visual preference and chart timeframe
5. Monitor the dashboard to track strategy performance in real-time
6. Use the TP/SL boxes as reference levels for manual trades or automation
Best Practices:
- Enable EMA filter in strongly trending markets
- Disable EMA filter if you want more trade signals but at lower quality
- Increase ATR multipliers in highly volatile markets
- Decrease ATR multipliers for tighter, more frequent trades
- Review avg win/loss ratio to ensure positive expectancy
UNIQUE FEATURES
Unlike basic Marubozu detectors, this strategy provides:
1. Automatic level tracking with memory management
2. Volatility-adjusted risk parameters instead of fixed values
3. Optional trend confirmation via EMA filter
4. Real-time performance analytics with automatic dollar conversion
5. Separate tracking of wins/losses with individual averages
6. Configurable visual display to prevent chart clutter

JOPA Channel (Dual-Volumed) v1 [JopAlgo]JOPA Channel (Dual-Volumed) v1
Short title: JOPAV1 • License: MPL-2.0 • Provider: JopAlgo
We have developed our own, first channel-based trading indicator and we’re making it available to all traders. The goal was a channel that breathes with the tape—built on a volume-weighted backbone—so the outcome stays lively instead of static. That led to the JOPA Channel.
All important features (at a glance)
In one line: A Rolling-VWAP channel whose width adapts with two volumes (RVOL + dollar-flow), adds order-flow asymmetry (OBV tilt) and regime awareness (Efficiency Ratio), and frames risk with outer containment bands from residual extremes—so you see fair value, momentum, and exhaustion in one view.
Feature list
Rolling VWAP centerline: Tracks where volume traded (fair value).
Dual-volume width: Bands expand/contract with relative volume and value traded (price×volume).
OBV tilt: Upper/lower widths skew toward the side actually pushing.
Regime adapter (ER): Tighter in trend, wider in chop—automatically.
Outer containment rails: Residual-extreme ceilings/floors, smoothed + margin.
20% / 80% guides: 20% light blue (discount), 80% light red (premium).
Squeeze dots (optional): Orange circles below candles during compression.
Non-repainting: Uses rolling sums and past-only math; no lookahead.
Default visual in this release
Containment rails + fill: ON (stepline, medium).
Inner Value rails + fill: Rails OFF (stepline, thin), fill ON (drawn only if rails are shown).
20% & 80% guides: ON (dashed, thin; 20% light blue, 80% light red).
Squeeze dots: OFF by default (orange circles when enabled).
What you see on the chart
RVWAP (centerline): Your compass for fair value.
Inner Value Bands (optional): Tight rails for breakouts and pullback timing.
Outer Containment Bands (default ON): High-confidence ceilings/floors for targets and fades.
20% / 80% guides: Quick read of “where in the channel” price is sitting.
Squeeze dots (optional): Volatility compression heads-up (no text labels).
Non-repainting note: The indicator does not revise closed bars. Forecast-Lock uses linear regression to extrapolate 1–3 bars ahead without using future data.
How to use it
Core reads (works on any timeframe)
Bias: Above a rising RVWAP → long bias; below a falling RVWAP → short bias.
Breakouts (momentum): Close beyond an Inner Value rail with RVOL ≥ threshold (alert provided).
Reversions (fades): Tag Outer Containment, stall, then close back inside → expect mean reversion toward RVWAP.
20/80 timing:
At/above 80% (light red) → premium/exhaustion risk; trim longs or consider fades if RVOL cools.
At/below 20% (light blue) → discount/exhaustion risk; trim shorts or consider longs if RVOL cools.
Squeeze clusters: When dots bunch up, expect a range break; use the Breakout alert as confirmation.
Playbooks by trading style
Day Trading (1–5m)
Setup: Keep the chart clean (Containment ON, Value rails OFF). Toggle Inner Value ON when hunting a breakout or timing a pullback.
Pullback Long: Dip to RVWAP / Lower Value with sub-threshold RVOL, then a close back above RVWAP → long.
Stop: Just beyond Lower Containment or the pullback swing.
Targets (1:1:1): ⅓ at RVWAP, ⅓ at Upper Value, ⅓ trail toward Upper Containment.
Breakout Long: After a squeeze cluster, take the Breakout Long alert (close > Upper Value, RVOL ≥ min). If no retest, demand the next bar holds outside.
Range Fade: Only when RVWAP is flat and dots cluster; short Upper Containment → RVWAP (mirror for longs at the lower rail).
Intraday (15m–1H)
HTF compass: Take bias from 4H.
Pullback Long: “Touch & reclaim” of RVWAP while RVOL cools; enter on the reclaim close or break of that candle’s high.
Breakout: Run Inner Value ON; act on Breakout alerts (RVOL gate ≈ 1.10–1.15 typical).
Avoid low-probability fades against the 4H slope unless RVWAP is flat.
Swing (4H–1D)
Continuation: In uptrends, buy pullbacks to RVWAP / Lower Value with sub-threshold RVOL; scale at Upper Containment.
Adds: Post-squeeze Breakout Long adds; trail on RVWAP or Lower Value.
Fades: Prefer when RVWAP flattens and price oscillates between containments.
Position (1D+)
Framework: Daily RVWAP slope + position within containment.
Add rule: Each reclaim of RVWAP after a dip is an add; trim into Upper Containment or near 80% light red.
Sizing: Containment distance is larger—size down and trail on RVWAP.

Context: Squeeze cluster near RVWAP; Inner Value ON.
Trigger: Breakout Long (close > Upper Value & RVOL ≥ min).
Stop: Below Lower Value (tight) or below RVWAP (safer).
Targets (1:1:1): ⅓ Value → ⅓ Containment → ⅓ trail on RVWAP.
Pullback Continuation
Context: Uptrend; dip to RVWAP / Lower Value with cooling RVOL.
Trigger: Close back above RVWAP or break of reclaim candle’s high.
Stop: Just outside Lower Containment or pullback swing.
Targets: RVWAP → Upper Value → Upper Containment.
Containment Reversion (range)
Context: RVWAP flat; repeated containment tags.
Trigger: Stall at containment, then close back inside.
Stop: A step beyond that containment.
Target: RVWAP; runner only if RVOL stays muted.
Alerts included
DVWAP Breakout Long / Short (Value Bands)
Top Zone / Bottom Zone (20% / 80% guides)
Tip: On lower TFs, act on Breakout alerts with higher-TF bias (e.g., trade 5–15m in the direction of 1H/4H RVWAP slope/position).
Best practices
Let RVWAP be the compass; if unsure, wait until price picks a side.
Respect RVOL; low-RVOL breaks are prone to fail.
Use guides for timing, not certainty. Pair 20/80 zones with flow context.
Start with defaults; change one knob at a time.
Common pitfalls
Fading every containment touch → only fade when RVWAP is flat or RVOL cools.
Over-tuning inputs → the defaults are robust; small tweaks go a long way.
Fighting the higher timeframe on low TFs → expensive habit.

Metallic Retracement ToolI made a version of the Metallic Retracement script where instead of using automatic zig-zag detection, you get to place the points manually. When you add it to the chart, it prompts you to click on two points. These two points become your swing range, and the indicator calculates all the metallic retracement levels from there and plots them on your chart. You can drag the points around afterwards to adjust the range, or just add the indicator to the chart again to place a completely new set of points.
The mathematical foundation is identical to the original Metallic Retracement indicator. You're still working with metallic means, which are the sequence of constants that generalize the golden ratio through the equation x² = kx + 1. When k equals 1, you get the golden ratio. When k equals 2, you get silver. Bronze is 3, and so on forever. Each metallic number generates its own set of retracement ratios by raising alpha to various negative powers, where alpha equals (k + sqrt(k² + 4)) / 2. The script algorithmically calculates these levels instead of hardcoding them, which means you can pick any metallic number you want and instantly get its complete retracement sequence.
What's different here is the control. Automatic zig-zag detection is useful when you want the indicator to find swings for you, but sometimes you have a specific price range in mind that doesn't line up with what the zig-zag algorithm considers significant. Maybe you're analyzing a move that's still developing and hasn't triggered the zig-zag's reversal thresholds yet. Maybe you want to measure retracements from an arbitrary high to an arbitrary low that happened weeks apart with tons of noise in between. Manual placement lets you define exactly which two points matter for your analysis without fighting with sensitivity settings or waiting for confirmation.
The interactive placement system uses TradingView's built-in drawing tools, so clicking the two points feels natural and works the same way as drawing a trendline or fibonacci retracement. First click sets your starting point, second click sets your ending point, and the indicator immediately calculates the range and draws all the metallic levels extending from whichever point you chose as the origin. If you picked a swing low and then a swing high, you get retracement levels projecting upward. If you went from high to low, they project downward.
Moving the points after placement is as simple as grabbing one of them and dragging it to a new location. The retracement levels recalculate in real-time as you move the anchor points, which makes it easy to experiment with different range definitions and see how the levels shift. This is particularly useful when you're trying to figure out which swing points produce retracement levels that line up with other technical features like previous support or resistance zones. You can slide the points around until you find a configuration that makes sense for your analysis.
Adding the indicator to the chart multiple times lets you compare different metallic means on the same price range, or analyze multiple ranges simultaneously with different metallic numbers. You could have golden ratio retracements on one major swing and silver ratio retracements on a smaller correction within that swing. Since each instance of the indicator is independent, you can mix and match metallic numbers and ranges however you want without one interfering with the other.
The settings work the same way as the original script. You select which metallic number to use, control how many power ratios to display above and below the 1.0 level, and adjust how many complete retracement cycles you want drawn. The levels extend from your manually placed swing points just like they would from automatically detected pivots, showing you where price might react based on whichever metallic mean you've selected.
What this version emphasizes is that retracement analysis is subjective in terms of which swing points you consider significant. Automatic detection algorithms make assumptions about what constitutes a meaningful reversal, but those assumptions don't always match your interpretation of the price action. By giving you manual control over point placement, this tool lets you apply metallic retracement concepts to exactly the price ranges you care about, without requiring those ranges to fit someone else's definition of a valid swing. You define the context, the indicator provides the mathematical framework.
Hyper SAR Reactor Trend StrategyHyperSAR Reactor Adaptive PSAR Strategy
Summary
Adaptive Parabolic SAR strategy for liquid stocks, ETFs, futures, and crypto across intraday to daily timeframes. It acts only when an adaptive trail flips and confirmation gates agree. Originality comes from a logistic boost of the SAR acceleration using drift versus ATR, plus ATR hysteresis, inertia on the trail, and a bear-only gate for shorts. Add to a clean chart and run on bar close for conservative alerts.
Scope and intent
• Markets: large cap equities and ETFs, index futures, major FX, liquid crypto
• Timeframes: one minute to daily
• Default demo: BTC on 60 minute
• Purpose: faster yet calmer PSAR that resists chop and improves short discipline
• Limits: this is a strategy that places simulated orders on standard candles
Originality and usefulness
• Novel fusion: PSAR AF is boosted by a logistic function of normalized drift, trail is monotone with inertia, entries use ATR buffers and optional cooldown, shorts are allowed only in a bear bias
• Addresses false flips in low volatility and weak downtrends
• All controls are exposed in Inputs for testability
• Yardstick: ATR normalizes drift so settings port across symbols
• Open source. No links. No solicitation
Method overview
Components
• Adaptive AF: base step plus boost factor times logistic strength
• Trail inertia: one sided blend that keeps the SAR monotone
• Flip hysteresis: price must clear SAR by a buffer times ATR
• Volatility gate: ATR over its mean must exceed a ratio
• Bear bias for shorts: price below EMA of length 91 with negative slope window 54
• Cooldown bars optional after any entry
• Visual SAR smoothing is cosmetic and does not drive orders
Fusion rule
Entry requires the internal flip plus all enabled gates. No weighted scores.
Signal rule
• Long when trend flips up and close is above SAR plus buffer times ATR and gates pass
• Short when trend flips down and close is below SAR minus buffer times ATR and gates pass
• Exit uses SAR as stop and optional ATR take profit per side

Trade Filters
• Flip confirm buffer ATR 0.50. Typical 0.2 to 0.8. Raise to cut flips
• Cooldown bars after entry 0. Typical 0 to 8. Blocks re entry for N bars
• Vol gate length 30 and Vol gate ratio 1. Raise ratio to trade only in active regimes
• Gate shorts by bear regime ON. Bear bias window 54 and Bias MA length 91 tune strictness
Risk

USD Session 8FX - LDN & NY (TF-invariant, Live + Table)What it is
A USD strength/weakness meter for the London (08:00–08:45) or New York (15:30–16:00/16:15) session. It blends the movement of 8 markets—EURUSD, GBPUSD, AUDUSD, NZDUSD, USDCHF, USDCAD, USDJPY, XAUUSD—into one Score that is timeframe-invariant (it uses a 1-minute “boundary TF” under the hood so changing chart TF doesn’t change the math).
Core logic (simple)
During the chosen session window, it records each symbol’s start and live end prices, computes returns, optionally normalizes by ATR (volatility), applies your weights, and averages anti-USD (EUR/GBP/AUD/NZD/XAU) vs USD-base (CHF/CAD/JPY) groups.
The final Score is the normalized sum of weighted contributions:
Score > 0 → “USD Strong”
Score < 0 → “USD Weak”
At the session close it freezes (“Locked”) the results so you can review them later.
What you see
Main plot: the USD Score line (with a 0 baseline).
Optional lines: Anti-USD average vs USD-base average (post-normalization, pre-weights).
Session background shading (London silver, New York aqua).
Live table with:
Each symbol’s % change, its weight, and its contribution to the Score.
TOP badges for the two biggest drivers (by absolute contribution).
A Side column (only for the two TOPs) showing BUY/SELL aligned with the USD verdict (e.g., if USD Strong → SELL anti-USD pairs like EURUSD, BUY USD-base like USDCHF).
Verdict row with USD Strong/Weak, the Score value, the window text, and whether you’re LIVE / CLOSED / FROZEN.
Trade Gate panel:
Shows Verdict (USD Strong/Weak), Bias OK/weak (|Score| vs your threshold), Top-1/Top-2 VWAP checks, an overall GATE: OK/NO, and an Entry hint string (e.g., “SELL EURUSD, BUY USDCHF”) when conditions align.
VWAP “Trade Gate”
It confirms alignment between the USD bias and price vs VWAP for the top movers:
If USD Strong: anti-USD symbols should be below VWAP (short bias), USD-base symbols above VWAP (long bias).
If USD Weak: the opposite.
Gate = OK only if |Score| ≥ minAbsScore and at least one of the two TOP symbols is on the correct side of VWAP.
Tip: set vwapTF to an intraday value (“1”, “5”, “15”) for reliable VWAP on higher-TF charts.
Alerts
At session close: “USD Strong/Weak – session close”.
Live threshold: alerts when |Score| crosses your intraday threshold up/down.
Entry hint (Gate OK): triggers when the Gate flips from NO → OK inside the window.
If you create an alert of type “Any alert() function call”, you also get a dynamic message like:
ENTRY HINT • Hint: SELL EURUSD, BUY USDCHF
Key inputs you can tweak
Session: London vs New York; NY end time 16:00 or 16:15.
Timezone: default Europe/Tirane.
Boundary TF: default “1” (keeps the indicator TF-invariant).
minAbsScore: sensitivity threshold for “Bias OK”.
ATR normalization (len): stabilizes comparisons across different volatility regimes.
VWAP settings: toggle panel and set vwapTF.
How to use (playbook)
Choose the session (e.g., New York 15:30–16:15), keep Boundary TF = 1.
If you’re on a higher-TF chart, set vwapTF = "1" or "5".
Watch Score and Verdict; when |Score| ≥ minAbsScore, bias is meaningful.
Check Top-1/Top-2 and the Trade Gate:
If Gate = OK, use the Entry hint (e.g., “SELL EURUSD, BUY USDCHF”) as the aligned idea.
Use your own execution rules (e.g., structure, risk, stops) on the suggested symbols.
After close, review the Frozen table to validate behavior and refine thresholds/weights.
Notes & edge cases
If some markets are illiquid/holiday, a few returns may be na; the script handles that gracefully.
If ta.vwap is na on high TFs, the Gate will simply not confirm—set vwapTF intraday.
You can customize weights (e.g., reduce XAUUSD to -0.3 or similar) to suit your basket philosophy.
If you want, I can add toggles to show Side for all 8 symbols, or print a one-line summary (e.g., “USD Strong • Score 0.23 • Gate OK • SELL EURUSD, BUY USDCHF”) in the top-left of the pane.
TriAnchor Elastic Reversion US Market SPY and QQQ adaptedSummary in one paragraph
Mean-reversion strategy for liquid ETFs, index futures, large-cap equities, and major crypto on intraday to daily timeframes. It waits for three anchored VWAP stretches to become statistically extreme, aligns with bar-shape and breadth, and fades the move. Originality comes from fusing daily, weekly, and monthly AVWAP distances into a single ATR-normalized energy percentile, then gating with a robust Z-score and a session-safe gap filter.
Scope and intent
• Markets: SPY QQQ IWM NDX large caps liquid futures liquid crypto
• Timeframes: 5 min to 1 day
• Default demo: SPY on 60 min
• Purpose: fade stretched moves only when multi-anchor context and breadth agree
• Limits: strategy uses standard candles for signals and orders only
Originality and usefulness
• Unique fusion: tri-anchor AVWAP energy percentile plus robust Z of close plus shape-in-range gate plus breadth Z of SPY QQQ IWM
• Failure mode addressed: chasing extended moves and fading during index-wide thrusts
• Testability: each component is an input and visible in orders list via L and S tags
• Portable yardstick: distances are ATR-normalized so thresholds transfer across symbols
• Open source: method and implementation are disclosed for community review
Method overview in plain language
Base measures
• Range basis: ATR(length = atr_len) as the normalization unit
• Return basis: not used directly; we use rank statistics for stability
Components
• Tri-Anchor Energy: squared distances of price from daily, weekly, monthly AVWAPs, each divided by ATR, then summed and ranked to a percentile over base_len
• Robust Z of Close: median and MAD based Z to avoid outliers
• Shape Gate: position of close inside bar range to require capitulation for longs and exhaustion for shorts
• Breadth Gate: average robust Z of SPY QQQ IWM to avoid fading when the tape is one-sided
• Gap Shock: skip signals after large session gaps
Fusion rule
• All required gates must be true: Energy ≥ energy_trig_prc, |Robust Z| ≥ z_trig, Shape satisfied, Breadth confirmed, Gap filter clear
Signal rule
• Long: energy extreme, Z negative beyond threshold, close near bar low, breadth Z ≤ −breadth_z_ok
• Short: energy extreme, Z positive beyond threshold, close near bar high, breadth Z ≥ +breadth_z_ok
What you will see on the chart
• Standard strategy arrows for entries and exits
• Optional short-side brackets: ATR stop and ATR take profit if enabled
Inputs with guidance
Setup
• Base length: window for percentile ranks and medians. Typical 40 to 80. Longer smooths, shorter reacts.
• ATR length: normalization unit. Typical 10 to 20. Higher reduces noise.
• VWAP band stdev: volatility bands for anchors. Typical 2.0 to 4.0.
• Robust Z window: 40 to 100. Larger for stability.
• Robust Z entry magnitude: 1.2 to 2.2. Higher means stronger extremes only.
• Energy percentile trigger: 90 to 99.5. Higher limits signals to rare stretches.
• Bar close in range gate long: 0.05 to 0.25. Larger requires deeper capitulation for longs.
Regime and Breadth
• Use breadth gate: on when trading indices or broad ETFs.
• Breadth Z confirm magnitude: 0.8 to 1.8. Higher avoids fighting thrusts.
• Gap shock percent: 1.0 to 5.0. Larger allows more gaps to trade.
Risk — Short only
• Enable short SL TP: on to bracket shorts.
• Short ATR stop mult: 1.0 to 3.0.
• Short ATR take profit mult: 1.0 to 6.0.

PRO Scalper(EN)
## What it is
**PRO Scalper** is an intraday price–action and liquidity map that helps you see where the market is likely to move **now**, not just where it has been.
It combines five building blocks that professional scalpers often watch together:
1. **Session Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP)** — the intraday “fair value” anchor.
2. **Opening Range** — the first minutes of the session that set the day’s balance.
3. **Trend filter** — higher-timeframe bias using **Exponential Moving Averages (EMA)** and optional **Average Directional Index (ADX)** strength.
4. **Two independent Supply/Demand zone engines** — zones are drawn from confirmed swing pivots, with midlines and **touch counters**.
5. **Order-flow style visuals**:
* **Delta bubbles** (green/red circles) show where buying or selling pressure was unusually strong, using a safe **delta proxy** (no external feeds).
* **Liquidity densities** (subtle rectangular bands) highlight clusters of large activity that often act as magnets or barriers and disappear when “eaten” by strong moves.
This mix gives you a **complete intraday picture**: the mean (VWAP), the day’s initial balance (Opening Range), the higher-timeframe push (trend filter), the nearby fuel or brakes (zones), and the live pressure points (bubbles and densities).
---
## Why these components
* **VWAP** tracks where the bulk of traded value sits. Price tends to rotate around it or accelerate away from it — a perfect compass for scalps.
* **Opening Range** frames the early auction. Many intraday breaks, fades and retests start at its boundaries.
* **EMA bias + ADX strength** separates trending conditions from chop, so you can keep only the zones that agree with the bigger push.
* **Pivot-based zones (two pairs at once)** are simple, objective and fast. Midlines help with confirmations; touch counters quantify how many times the zone was tested.
* **Bubbles and densities** add the “effort” layer: where the push appeared and where liquidity is concentrated. You see **where** a move is likely to continue or fail.
Together they reduce ambiguity: **context + level + effort** — all on one screen.
---
## How it works (plain language)
* **VWAP** resets each day and is calculated as the cumulative sum of typical price multiplied by volume divided by total volume.
* **Opening Range** is either automatic (a multiple of your chart timeframe) or a manual number of minutes. While it is forming, the highest high and lowest low are captured and plotted as the range.
* **Trend filter**
* **EMA Fast** and **EMA Slow** define directional bias.
* **ADX (optional)** adds “trend strength”: only when the Average Directional Index is above the chosen threshold do we treat the move as strong. You can source this from a higher timeframe.
* **Zones**
* There are **two independent pairs** of pivots at the same time (for example 10-left 10-right and 5-left 5-right).
* Each detected pivot creates a **Supply** (from a swing high) or **Demand** (from a swing low) box. Box depth = **zone depth × Average True Range** for adaptive sizing; the boxes **extend forward**.
* Midline (optional dashed line inside the box) is the “balance” of the zone.
* **“Only in trend”** mode can hide boxes that go against the higher-timeframe bias.
* The **touch counter** increases when price revisits the box. Labels show the pair name and the number of touches.
* **Bubbles**
* A safe **delta proxy** measures bar pressure (for example, range-weighted close vs open).
* A **quantile filter** shows only unusually large pressure: choose lookback and percentile, and the script draws a circle sized by intensity (green = bullish pressure, red = bearish).
* **Densities**
* The script marks heavy activity clusters as **subtle bands** around price (depth = fraction of Average True Range).
* If price **breaks** a density with volume above its moving average, the band **disappears** (“eaten”), which often precedes continuation.
---
## How to use — practical playbooks
> Recommended chart: crypto or index futures, one to five minutes. Use **one hour** or **fifteen minutes** for the higher-timeframe bias.
### 1) Trend pullback scalp (continuation)
1. Enable **Only in trend** zones.
2. In an uptrend: wait for a pullback into a **Demand** zone that overlaps with VWAP or sits just below the Opening Range midpoint.
3. Look for **green bubbles** near the zone’s bottom or a fresh **density** under price.
4. Enter on a candle closing **back above the zone midline**.
5. Stop-loss: below the bottom of the zone or a small multiple of Average True Range.
6. Targets: previous swing high, Opening Range high, fixed risk multiples, or VWAP.
Mirror the logic for downtrends using Supply zones, red bubbles and densities above price.
### 2) Reversion with liquidity sweep (fade)
1. Bias neutral or countertrend allowed.
2. Price **wicks through** a zone boundary (or an Opening Range line) and **closes back inside** the zone.
3. The bubble color often flips (absorption).
4. Enter toward the **inside** of the zone; stop beyond the sweep wick; first target = zone midline, second = opposite side of the zone or VWAP.
### 3) Opening Range break and retest
1. Wait for the Opening Range to complete.
2. A break with a large bubble suggests intent.
3. Look for a **retest** into a nearby zone aligned with VWAP.
4. Trade continuation toward the next zone or the session extremes.
### 4) Density “eaten” continuation
1. When a density band **disappears** on high volume, it often means the resting liquidity was consumed.
2. Trade in the direction of the break, toward the nearest opposing zone.

## Tips and risk management
* This script **does not use external order-flow feeds**. Delta is a **proxy** suitable for TradingView; tune quantiles per symbol and timeframe.
* Do not trade every bubble. Combine **context (trend + VWAP + Opening Range)** with **level (zone)** and **effort (bubble/density)**.
* Set stop-losses beyond the zone or at a fraction of Average True Range. Predefine risk per trade.
* Backtest your rules with a strategy script before using real funds.
* Markets differ. Parameters that work on Bitcoin may not transfer to low-liquidity altcoins or stocks.
* Nothing here is financial advice. Scalping is high-risk; slippage and over-trading can quickly damage your account.

## What makes PRO Scalper unique
* Two **independent** zone engines run in parallel, so you can see both **larger structure** and **fine intraday levels** at the same time.
* Clean **“only in trend” rendering** — zones and midlines against the bias can be hidden, reducing clutter and hesitation.
* **Touch counters** convert “feel” into numbers.
* **Self-contained order-flow visuals** (bubbles and densities) that require no extra data sources.
* Careful defaults: subtle colors for densities, clearer zones, and responsive auto Opening Range.

(RU)
## Что это такое
**PRO Scalper** — это индикатор для внутридневной торговли, который показывает **контекст и ликвидность прямо сейчас**.
Он объединяет пять модулей, которыми профессиональные скальперы пользуются вместе:
1. **VWAP** — средневзвешенная по объему цена за сессию, «справедливая стоимость» дня.
2. **Opening Range** — первая часть сессии, задающая баланс дня.
3. **Фильтр тренда** — направление старшего таймфрейма по **экспоненциальным средним** и при желании по силе тренда **Average Directional Index**.
4. **Две независимые системы зон спроса/предложения** — зоны строятся от подтвержденных экстремумов (пивотов), имеют **среднюю линию** и **счетчик касаний**.
5. **Визуализация «ордер-флоу»**:
* **Пузыри дельты** (зеленые/красные круги) — места повышенного покупательного/продажного давления, рассчитанные через безопасный **прокси-дельты**.
* **Плотности ликвидности** (ненавязчивые прямоугольные ленты) — скопления объема, которые нередко притягивают цену или удерживают ее и исчезают, когда «разъедаются» сильным движением.
Итог — **полная картинка момента**: среднее (VWAP), баланс дня (Opening Range), старшая сила (фильтр тренда), ближайшие уровни топлива/тормозов (зоны), текущие точки усилия (пузыри и плотности).
---
## Почему именно эти элементы
* **VWAP** показывает, где сосредоточена стоимость; цена либо вращается вокруг него, либо быстро уходит — идеальный ориентир скальпера.
* **Opening Range** фиксирует ранний аукцион — от его границ часто начинаются пробои, возвраты и ретесты.
* **EMA + ADX** отделяют тренд от «пилы», позволяя оставлять на графике только зоны по направлению старшего таймфрейма.
* **Зоны от пивотов** просты, объективны и быстры; средняя линия помогает подтверждать разворот, счетчик касаний переводит субъективность в цифры.
* **Пузыри и плотности** добавляют слой «усилия»: где именно возник толчок и где сконцентрирована ликвидность.
Комбинация **контекста + уровня + усилия** уменьшает двусмысленность и ускоряет принятие решения.
---
## Как это работает (простыми словами)
* **VWAP** каждый день стартует заново: сумма «типичной цены × объем» делится на суммарный объем.
* **Opening Range** — автоматический (кратный минутам вашего таймфрейма) или вручную заданный период; пока он формируется, фиксируются максимум и минимум.
* **Фильтр тренда**
* Две экспоненциальные средние задают направление.
* **ADX** (по желанию) добавляет «силу». Источник можно взять со старшего таймфрейма.
* **Зоны**
* Одновременно работает **две пары** пивотов (например 10-лево 10-право и 5-лево 5-право).
* От пивота строится зона **предложения** (от максимума) или **спроса** (от минимума). Глубина зоны = **коэффициент × Average True Range**; зона тянется вперед.
* Внутри рисуется **средняя линия** (по желанию).
* Режим **«только по тренду»** скрывает зоны против старшего направления.
* **Счетчик касаний** увеличивается, когда цена снова входит в зону; подпись показывает пару и количество касаний.
* **Пузыри**
* Используется безопасный **прокси-дельты** — измерение «напряжения» внутри свечи.
* Через **квантильный фильтр** выводятся только необычно сильные места: настраиваются окно и процент квантиля; размер кружка — сила, цвет: зеленый покупатели, красный продавцы.
* **Плотности**
* Крупные активности отмечаются **ненавязчивыми прямоугольниками** (глубина — доля Average True Range).
* Если плотность **пробивается** объемом выше среднего, она **исчезает** — часто это предвещает продолжение.
---
## Как пользоваться — практические схемы
> Рекомендация: крипто или фьючерсы, таймфрейм 1–5 минут. Для старшего фильтра удобно взять **1 час** или **15 минут**.
### 1) Скальп на откат по тренду
1. Включите **«только по тренду»**.
2. В восходящем тренде дождитесь отката в **зону спроса**, желательно рядом с **VWAP** или серединой **Opening Range**.
3. Подтверждение — **зеленые пузыри** у нижней границы зоны или свежая **плотность** под ценой.
4. Вход после закрытия свечи **выше средней линии** зоны.
5. Стоп-лосс: за нижнюю границу зоны или небольшой множитель Average True Range.
6. Цели: предыдущий максимум, верх Opening Range, фиксированные R-множители, либо VWAP.
Для нисходящего тренда зеркально: зоны предложения, красные пузыри и плотности над ценой.
### 2) Контрдвижение с «выбиванием ликвидности»
1. Нейтральный или контртрендовый режим.
2. Цена **выносит хвостом** границу зоны (или линию Opening Range) и **закрывается обратно внутри**.
3. Цвет пузыря часто меняется (поглощение).
4. Вход внутрь зоны; стоп — за хвост выбивания; цели: средняя линия, противоположная граница зоны или VWAP.
### 3) Пробой Opening Range + ретест
1. Дождитесь завершения диапазона.
2. Сильный пробой с крупным пузырем — признак намерения.
3. Ищите **ретест** в зоне по тренду рядом с линией диапазона и VWAP.
4. Торгуйте продолжение к следующей зоне.
### 4) Продолжение после «съеденной» плотности
1. Когда прямоугольник плотности **исчезает** на повышенном объеме, это значит, что ликвидность поглощена.
2. Торгуйте в сторону пробоя к ближайшей противоположной зоне.

## Советы и риски
* Индикатор **не использует внешние потоки ордер-флоу**. Дельта — **прокси**, подходящая для TradingView; подбирайте квантили под инструмент и таймфрейм.
* Не торгуйте каждый пузырь. Склейте **контекст (тренд + VWAP + Opening Range)** с **уровнем (зона)** и **усилием (пузырь/плотность)**.
* Стоп-лосс — за границей зоны или по Average True Range. Риск на сделку задавайте заранее.
* Перед реальными деньгами протестируйте правила в стратегии.
* Разные рынки ведут себя по-разному; настройки из Биткоина могут не подойти малоликвидным альткоинам или акциям.
* Это не инвестиционная рекомендация. Скальпинг — высокий риск; проскальзывание и переизбыток сделок быстро наносят ущерб капиталу.

SuperBandsI've been seeing a lot of volatility band indicators pop up recently, and after watching this trend for a while, I figured it was time to throw my two chips in. The original spark for this idea came years ago from RicardoSantos's Vector Flow Channel script, which used decay channels with timed events in an interesting way. That concept stuck with me, and I kept thinking about how to build something that captured the same kind of dynamic envelope behavior but with a different mathematical foundation. What I ended up with is a hybrid that takes the core logic of supertrend trailing stops, smooths them heavily with exponential moving averages, and wraps them in Donchian-style filled bands with momentum-based color gradients.
The basic mechanism here is pretty straightforward. Standard supertrend calculates a trailing stop based on ATR offset from price, then flips direction when price crosses the trail. This implementation does the same thing but adds EMA smoothing to the trail calculation itself, which removes a lot of the choppiness you get from raw supertrend during sideways periods. The smoothing period is adjustable, so you can tune how reactive versus stable you want the bands to be. Lower smoothing values make the bands track price more aggressively, higher values create wider, slower-moving envelopes that only respond to sustained directional moves.
Where this diverges from typical supertrend implementations is in the visual presentation and the separate treatment of bullish and bearish conditions. Instead of a single flipping line, you get persistent upper and lower bands that each track their own trailing stops independently. The bullish band trails below price and stays active as long as price doesn't break below it. The bearish band trails above price and remains active until price breaks above. Both bands can be visible simultaneously, which gives you a dynamic channel that adapts to volatility on both sides of price action. When price is trending strongly, one band will dominate and the other will disappear. During consolidation, both bands tend to compress toward price.
The color gradients are calculated by measuring the rate of change in each band's position and converting that delta into an angle using arctangent scaling. Steeper angles, which correspond to the band moving quickly to catch up with accelerating price, get brighter colors. Flatter angles, where the band is moving slowly or staying relatively stable, fade toward more muted tones. This gives you a visual sense of momentum within the bands themselves, not just from price movement. A rapidly brightening band often precedes expansion or breakout conditions, while fading colors suggest the trend is losing steam or entering consolidation.
The filled regions between price and each band serve a similar function to Donchian channels or Keltner bands, creating clearly defined zones that represent normal price behavior relative to recent volatility. When price hugs one band and the fill area compresses, you're in a strong directional regime. When price bounces between both bands and the fills expand, you're in a ranging environment. The transparency gradients in the fills make it easier to see when price is near the edge of the envelope versus safely inside it.
Configuration is split between bullish and bearish settings, which lets you asymmetrically tune the indicator if you find that your market or timeframe has different characteristics in uptrends versus downtrends. You can adjust ATR period, ATR multiplier, and smoothing independently for each direction. This flexibility is useful for instruments that exhibit different volatility profiles during bull and bear phases, or for strategies that want tighter trailing on longs than shorts, or vice versa.
The ATR period controls the lookback window for volatility measurement. Shorter periods make the bands react quickly to recent volatility spikes, which can be beneficial in fast-moving markets but also leads to more frequent whipsaws. Longer periods smooth out volatility estimates and create more stable bands at the cost of slower adaptation. The multiplier scales the ATR offset, directly controlling how far the bands sit from price. Smaller multipliers keep the bands tight, triggering more frequent direction changes. Larger multipliers create wider envelopes that give price more room to move without breaking the trail.
One thing to note is that this indicator doesn't generate explicit buy or sell signals in the traditional sense. It's a regime filter and envelope tool. You can use band breaks as directional cues if you want, but the primary value comes from understanding the current volatility environment and whether price is respecting or violating its recent behavioral boundaries. Pairing this with momentum oscillators or volume analysis tends to work better than treating band breaks as standalone entries.
From an implementation perspective, the supertrend state machine tracks whether each direction's trail is active, handles resets when price breaks through, and manages the EMA smoothing on the trail points themselves rather than just post-processing the supertrend output. This means the smoothing is baked into the trailing logic, which creates a different response curve than if you just applied an EMA to a standard supertrend line. The angle calculations use RMS estimation for the delta normalization range, which adapts to changing volatility and keeps the color gradients responsive across different market conditions.
What this really demonstrates is that there are endless ways to combine basic technical concepts into something that feels fresh without reinventing mathematics. ATR offsets, trailing stops, EMA smoothing, and Donchian fills are all standard building blocks, but arranging them in a particular way produces behavior that's distinct from each component alone. Whether this particular arrangement works better than other volatility band systems depends entirely on your market, timeframe, and what you're trying to accomplish. For me, it scratched the itch I had from seeing Vector Flow years ago and wanting to build something in that same conceptual space using tools I'm more comfortable with.
Mythical EMAs + Dynamic VWAP BandThis indicator titled "Mythical EMAs + Dynamic VWAP Band." It overlays several volatility-adjusted Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) on the chart, along with a Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) line and a dynamic band around it.
Additionally, it uses background coloring (clouds) to visualize bullish or bearish trends, with intensity modulated by the price's position relative to the VWAP.
The EMAs are themed with mythical names (e.g., Hermes for the 9-period EMA), but this is just stylistic flavoring and doesn't affect functionality.
I'll break it down section by section, explaining what each part does, how it works, and its purpose in the context of technical analysis. This indicator is designed for traders to identify trends, momentum, and price fairness relative to volume-weighted averages, with volatility adjustments to make the EMAs more responsive in volatile markets.
### 1. **Volatility Calculation (ATR)**
```pine
atrLength = 14
volatility = ta.atr(atrLength)
```
- **What it does**: Calculates the Average True Range (ATR) over 14 periods (a common default). ATR measures market volatility by averaging the true range (the greatest of: high-low, |high-previous close|, |low-previous close|).
- **Purpose**: This volatility value is used later to dynamically adjust the EMAs, making them more sensitive in high-volatility conditions (e.g., during market swings) and smoother in low-volatility periods. It helps the indicator adapt to changing market environments rather than using static EMAs.
### 2. **Custom Mythical EMA Function**
```pine
mythical_ema(src, length, base_alpha, vol_factor) =>
alpha = (2 / (length + 1)) * base_alpha * (1 + vol_factor * (volatility / src))
ema = 0.0
ema := na(ema ) ? src : alpha * src + (1 - alpha) * ema
ema
```
- **What it does**: Defines a custom function to compute a modified EMA.
- It starts with the standard EMA smoothing factor formula: `2 / (length + 1)`.
- Multiplies it by a `base_alpha` (a user-defined multiplier to tweak responsiveness).
- Adjusts further for volatility: Adds a term `(1 + vol_factor * (volatility / src))`, where `vol_factor` scales the impact, and `volatility / src` normalizes ATR relative to the source price (making it scale-invariant).
- The EMA is then calculated recursively: If the previous EMA is NA (e.g., at the start), it uses the current source value; otherwise, it weights the current source by `alpha` and the prior EMA by `(1 - alpha)`.
- **Purpose**: This creates "adaptive" EMAs that react faster in volatile markets (higher alpha when volatility is high relative to price) without overreacting in calm periods. It's an enhancement over standard EMAs, which use fixed alphas and can lag in choppy conditions. The mythical theme is just naming—functionally, it's a volatility-weighted EMA.
### 3. **Calculating the EMAs**
```pine
ema9 = mythical_ema(close, 9, 1.2, 0.5) // Hermes - quick & nimble
ema20 = mythical_ema(close, 20, 1.0, 0.3) // Apollo - short-term foresight
ema50 = mythical_ema(close, 50, 0.9, 0.2) // Athena - wise strategist
ema100 = mythical_ema(close, 100, 0.8, 0.1) // Zeus - powerful oversight
ema200 = mythical_ema(close, 200, 0.7, 0.05) // Kronos - long-term patience
```
- **What it does**: Applies the custom EMA function to the close price with varying lengths (9, 20, 50, 100, 200 periods), base alphas (decreasing from 1.2 to 0.7 for longer periods to make shorter ones more responsive), and volatility factors (decreasing from 0.5 to 0.05 to reduce volatility influence on longer-term EMAs).
- **Purpose**: These form a multi-timeframe EMA ribbon:
- Shorter EMAs (e.g., 9 and 20) capture short-term momentum.
- Longer ones (e.g., 200) show long-term trends.
- Crossovers (e.g., short EMA crossing above long EMA) can signal buy/sell opportunities. The volatility adjustment makes them "mythical" by adding dynamism, potentially improving signal quality in real markets.
### 4. **VWAP Calculation**
```pine
vwap_val = ta.vwap(close) // VWAP based on close price
```
- **What it does**: Computes the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) using the built-in `ta.vwap` function, anchored to the close price. VWAP is the average price weighted by volume over the session (resets daily by default in Pine Script).
- **Purpose**: VWAP acts as a benchmark for "fair value." Prices above VWAP suggest bullishness (buyers in control), below indicate bearishness (sellers dominant). It's commonly used by institutional traders to assess entry/exit points.
### 5. **Plotting EMAs and VWAP**
```pine
plot(ema9, color=color.fuchsia, title='EMA 9 (Hermes)')
plot(ema20, color=color.red, title='EMA 20 (Apollo)')
plot(ema50, color=color.orange, title='EMA 50 (Athena)')
plot(ema100, color=color.aqua, title='EMA 100 (Zeus)')
plot(ema200, color=color.blue, title='EMA 200 (Kronos)')
plot(vwap_val, color=color.yellow, linewidth=2, title='VWAP')
```
- **What it does**: Overlays the EMAs and VWAP on the chart with distinct colors and titles for easy identification in TradingView's legend.
- **Purpose**: Visualizes the EMA ribbon and VWAP line. Traders can watch for EMA alignments (e.g., all sloping up for uptrend) or price interactions with VWAP.
### 6. **Dynamic VWAP Band**
```pine
band_pct = 0.005
vwap_upper = vwap_val * (1 + band_pct)
vwap_lower = vwap_val * (1 - band_pct)
p1 = plot(vwap_upper, color=color.new(color.yellow, 0), title="VWAP Upper Band")
p2 = plot(vwap_lower, color=color.new(color.yellow, 0), title="VWAP Lower Band")
fill_color = close >= vwap_val ? color.new(color.green, 80) : color.new(color.red, 80)
fill(p1, p2, color=fill_color, title="Dynamic VWAP Band")
```
- **What it does**: Creates a band ±0.5% around the VWAP.
- Plots the upper/lower bands with full transparency (color opacity 0, so lines are invisible).
- Fills the area between them dynamically: Semi-transparent green (opacity 80) if close ≥ VWAP (bullish bias), red if below (bearish bias).
- **Purpose**: Highlights deviations from VWAP visually. The color change provides an at-a-glance sentiment indicator—green for "above fair value" (potential strength), red for "below" (potential weakness). The narrow band (0.5%) focuses on short-term fairness, and the fill makes it easier to spot than just the line.
### 7. **Trend Clouds with VWAP Interaction**
```pine
bullish = ema9 > ema20 and ema20 > ema50
bearish = ema9 < ema20 and ema20 < ema50
bullish_above_vwap = bullish and close > vwap_val
bullish_below_vwap = bullish and close <= vwap_val
bearish_below_vwap = bearish and close < vwap_val
bearish_above_vwap = bearish and close >= vwap_val
bgcolor(bullish_above_vwap ? color.new(color.green, 50) : na, title="Bullish Above VWAP")
bgcolor(bullish_below_vwap ? color.new(color.green, 80) : na, title="Bullish Below VWAP")
bgcolor(bearish_below_vwap ? color.new(color.red, 50) : na, title="Bearish Below VWAP")
bgcolor(bearish_above_vwap ? color.new(color.red, 80) : na, title="Bearish Above VWAP")
```
- **What it does**: Defines trend conditions based on EMA alignments:
- Bullish: Shorter EMAs stacked above longer ones (9 > 20 > 50, indicating upward momentum).
- Bearish: The opposite (downward momentum).
- Sub-conditions combine with VWAP: E.g., bullish_above_vwap is true only if bullish and price > VWAP.
- Applies background colors (bgcolor) to the entire chart pane:
- Strong bullish (above VWAP): Green with opacity 50 (less transparent, more intense).
- Weak bullish (below VWAP): Green with opacity 80 (more transparent, less intense).
- Strong bearish (below VWAP): Red with opacity 50.
- Weak bearish (above VWAP): Red with opacity 80.
- If no condition matches, no color (na).
- **Purpose**: Creates "clouds" for trend visualization, enhanced by VWAP context. This helps traders confirm trends—e.g., a strong bullish cloud (darker green) suggests a high-conviction uptrend when price is above VWAP. The varying opacity differentiates signal strength: Darker for aligned conditions (trend + VWAP agreement), lighter for misaligned (potential weakening or reversal).
### Overall Indicator Usage and Limitations
- **How to use it**: Add this to a TradingView chart (e.g., stocks, crypto, forex). Look for EMA crossovers, price bouncing off EMAs/VWAP, or cloud color changes as signals. Bullish clouds with price above VWAP might signal buys; bearish below for sells.
- **Strengths**: Combines momentum (EMAs), volume (VWAP), and volatility adaptation for a multi-layered view. Dynamic colors make it intuitive.
- **Limitations**:
- EMAs lag in ranging markets; volatility adjustment helps but doesn't eliminate whipsaws.
- VWAP resets daily (standard behavior), so it's best for intraday/session trading.
- No alerts or inputs for customization (e.g., changeable lengths)—it's hardcoded.
- Performance depends on the asset/timeframe; backtest before using.
- **License**: Mozilla Public License 2.0, so it's open-source and modifiable.
