Parabolic SAR Swing strategy GBP JPY Daily timeframeToday I bring you a new strategy thats made of parabolic sar. It has optmized values for GBPJPY Daily timeframe chart.
It also has a time period selection, in order to see how it behave between selected years.
The strategy behind it is simple :
We have an uptrend , (the psar is below our candles) we go long. We exit when our candle crosses the psar value.
The same applies for downtrend(the psar is above our candles), where we go short. We exit when our candle cross the psar value.
Among the basic indicators, it looks like PSAR is one of the best canditates for swing trading.
If you have any questions, please let me know.

Ultimate VWAP Bands- Ultimate VWAP Bands is a script that helps to decide and further clarify areas of oversold and overbought conditions.
- For example, when the price is in the lowest band it is extremely oversold relative to the VWAP . Hence it should be considered a good place to buy with a high risk to reward payoff.
- Each band is set at a fixed offset away from the VWAP . The "VWAP Band Multiplier" adjusts this and is a key part of the script. This allows the indicator to be adjusted based on the assets volatility . For example, with Crypto. A multiplier of 1 would be strongly advised. Whilst a multiplier of 0.1-0.25 would be useful for currency pairs.
- This indicator can be used for all manners of trading. However, it is most effective when used for scalping and swing trading.
[blackcat] L2 Swing Oscillator Swing MeterLevel: 2
Background
Swing trading is a type of trading aimed at making short to medium term profits from a trading pair over a period of a few days to several weeks. Swing traders mainly use technical analysis to look for trading opportunities. In addition to analyzing price trends and patterns, these traders can also use fundamental analysis.
Function
L2 Swing Oscillator Swing Meter is an oscillator based on breakouts. Another important feature of it is the swing meter, which confirms the top or bottom's confidence level with different color candles. The higher of the candles stack up, the higher confidence level is indicated.
Key Signal
absolutebot ---> absolute bottom with very high confidence level
ltbot ---> long term bottom with high confidence level
mtbot ---> middle term bottom with moderate confidence level
stbot ---> short term bottom with low confidence level
absolutetop ---> absolute top with very high confidence level
lttop ---> long term top with high confidence level
mttop ---> middle term top with moderate confidence level
sttop ---> short term top with low confidence level
fastline ---> oscillator fast line
slowline ---> oscillator slow line
Pros and Cons
Pros:
1. reconfigurable swing oscillator based on breakouts
2. swing meter can confirm/validate the bottom and top signal
Cons:
1. not appliable with trading pairs without volume information
2. small time frame may not trigger swing meter function
Remarks
This is a simple but very comprehensive technical indicator

In real life, I am a prolific inventor. I have successfully applied for more than 60 international and regional patents in the past 12 years. But in the past two years or so, I have tried to transfer my creativity to the development of trading strategies. Tradingview is the ideal platform for me. I am selecting and contributing some of the hundreds of scripts to publish in Tradingview community. Welcome everyone to interact with me to discuss these interesting pine scripts.
The scripts posted are categorized into 5 levels according to my efforts or manhours put into these works.
Level 1 : interesting script snippets or distinctive improvement from classic indicators or strategy. Level 1 scripts can usually appear in more complex indicators as a function module or element.
Level 2 : composite indicator/strategy. By selecting or combining several independent or dependent functions or sub indicators in proper way, the composite script exhibits a resonance phenomenon which can filter out noise or fake trading signal to enhance trading confidence level.
Level 3 : comprehensive indicator/strategy. They are simple trading systems based on my strategies. They are commonly containing several or all of entry signal, close signal, stop loss, take profit, re-entry, risk management, and position sizing techniques. Even some interesting fundamental and mass psychological aspects are incorporated.
Level 4 : script snippets or functions that do not disclose source code. Interesting element that can reveal market laws and work as raw material for indicators and strategies. If you find Level 1~2 scripts are helpful, Level 4 is a private version that took me far more efforts to develop.

L1 Mid-Term Swing Oscillator v1Level: 1
Background
Oscillators are widely used set of technical analysis indicators. They are popular primarily for their ability to alert of a possible trend change before that change manifests itself in price and volume . They should work best in times of sideways markets.
Function
L1 Short-Mid-Long-Term Swing Oscillator puts three terms of oscillators to cover short-term, middle-term and long-term oscillators at the same time. By resonating all these three oscillators, short-term scalping signal and middle term swing signal are disclosed. You can see both short and mid term signal under one indicator which give you more confidence to follow the trend.
Key Signal
I didn't handle the key signals well. I piled up all the useful signals I found, and it is really difficult to classify them one by one. I feel tired when I think about this problem. Therefore, the code of the overall signal is rather confusing, sorry.
Pros and Cons
Pros:
1. Three oscillators are used to cover short, mid, long term oscillations.
2. Short-Mid term resonance can be observed to have higher confidence level.
3. Use single indicator for scalping and swing trading is possible.
Cons:
1. No deep dive into very accurate long and short entries.
2. A trade off between sensitivity and stability may be needed by traders' subjective judge.
Remarks
I enjoyed the fun of put three different oscillator together to cover short, mid, long terms. But how to use them perfectly is really more brainstorming.

Why is it ok to backtest on TradingView from now on!TradingView backtester has bad reputation. For a good reason - it was producing wrong results, and it was clear at first sight how bad they were.
But this has changed. Along with many other improvements in its PineScript coding capabilities, TradingView fixed important bug, which was the main reason for miscalculations. TradingView didn't really speak out about this fix, so let me try :)
Have a look at this short code of a swing trading strategy (PLEASE DON'T FOCUS ON BACKTEST RESULTS ATTACHED HERE - THEY DO NOT MATTER). Sometimes entry condition happens together with closing condition for the already ongoing trade. Example: the condition to close Long entry is the same as a condition to enter Short. And when these two aligned, not only a Long was closed and Short was entered (as intended), but also a second Short was entered, too!!! What's even worse, that second short was not controlled with closing conditions inside strategy.exit() function and it very often lead to losses exceeding whatever was declared in "loss=" parameter. This could not have worked well...
But HOORAY!!! - it has been fixed and won't happen anymore. So together with other improvements - TradingView's backtester and PineScript is now ok to work with on standard candlesticks :)
Yep, no need to code strategies and backtest them on other platforms anymore.
----------------
Having said the above, there are still some pitfalls remaining, which you need to be aware of and avoid:
Don't backtest on HeikenAshi, Renko, Kagi candlesticks. They were not invented with backtesting in mind. There are still using wrong price levels for entries and therefore producing always too good backtesting results. Only standard candlesticks are reliable to backtest on.
Don't use Trailing Stop in your code. TradingView operates only on closed candlesticks, not on tick data and because of that, backtester will always assume price has first reached its favourable extreme (so 'high' when you are in Long trade and 'low' when you are in Short trade) before it starts to pull back. Which is rarely the truth in reality. Therefore strategies using Trailing Stop are also producing too good backtesting results. It is especially well visible on higher timeframe strategies - for some reason your strategy manages to make gains on those huge, fat candlesticks :) But that's not reality.
"when=" inside strategy.exit() does not work as you would intuitively expect. If you want to have logical condition to close your trade (for example - crossover(rsi(close,14),20)) you need to place it inside strategy.close() function. And leave StopLoss + TakeProfit conditions inside strategy.exit() function. Just as in attached code.
If you're working with pyramiding, add "process_orders_on_close=ANY" to your strategy() script header. Default setting ("=FIFO") will first close the trade, which was opened first, not the one which was hit by Stop-Loss condidtion.
----------------
That's it, I guess :) If you are noticing other issues with backtester and would like to share, let everyone know in comments. If the issue is indeed a bug, there is a chance TradingView dev team will hear your voice and take it into account when working on other improvements. Just like they heard about the bug I described above.
P.S. I know for a fact that more improvements in the backtesting area are coming. Some will change the game even for non-coding traders. If you want to be notified quickly and with my comment - gimme "follow".
Complete Trend Trading System [Fhenry0331]This system was designed for the beginner trader to make money swing trading. Your losses will be small and your gains will be mostly large. You will show consistent profit. Period.
The system works on any security you like to trade. I used GBPUSD as an example because of the up swing and down swing it had recently. I tried to put as much information of how the system works in the chart. Hope it helps and is not to cluttered.
I will reiterate how the system works here: Everything is based off of closed price.
Legend
Uptrend: Buy
Green bar: initial start of an uptrend or uptrend continuing. Place order above that bar. If the initial bar does not stray too far from the MVWAP , I will place orders above subsequent bars if no filled occurred.
If initial start of the trend is missed, I will wait for the pullback. A pullback is a close below the MVWAP, and a close above the EMA (Low), RSI is above 50. Orders are placed above the pullback bars with plotted char "B" and also plotted green triangle up. Again orders are placed above those bars. the bars do not notate automatic buys. Don't chase anything. You will miss the initial bar on something because of news or earnings and it rocket up. Just wait, it will pullback. If it doesn't, to hell with it, on to the next.
Take profits: In the indicator you will see "T." That notates to take some profits. It is a suggestion. I was always told to take profits into spikes, as well as you can never lose money if you take profits. Up to you if you want to scale out and take the suggested profits or not.
Exit Completely: In an uptrend, close your entire position on bars colored yellow or red. (Again, closed bars)
In uptrend bars colored orange and black, do nothing, they are just pullback bars. Look for the buy pullback signal, then follow pullback buy rules for an uptrend.
Downtrend: Short
Red bar: initial start of a downtrend or downtrend continuing. Place order below the bar. If the initial bar does not stray too far fro the MVWAP, place orders below subsequent bars.
If initial start on the downtrend is missed, wait for the pullback. A pullback is a close above the MVWAP, and close below the EMA(Low). RSI is below 50. Orders are placed below the pullback bars with the plotted char "S" and also plotted red triangle. Again those bars are not automatic shorts, orders are placed below them. Don't chase anything. Wait for price to come into your plan. The idea FOMO is the stupidest thing ever, how can you miss out on something when it is always there. The market is always there and something will come into your zone. Chill.
"T": same as in uptrend, suggestion to take some profits.
Exit Completely: In a downtrend, close your entire position on bars colored orange or green.
In downtrend you will see bars colored yellow and black, do nothing, they are pullback bars. Look for the pullback short signal and follow pullback short rules.
If you have any questions get at me. Take a look at it on what you trade. Flip it through different securities.
Best of luck in all you do.
P.S. You should not take a trade right before earnings. You should also exit a trade right before earnings.

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.

Big Snapper's Bollinger OutsideIn Swing filter in Action:
Colored Volume Bars [LazyBear]Edgar Kraut proposed this simple colored volume bars strategy for swing trading.
This is how the colors are determined:
- If today’s closing price and volume are greater than 'n' days ago, color today’s volume bar green.
- If today’s closing price is greater than 'n' days ago but volume is not, color today’s volume bar blue.
- Similarly, if today’s closing price and volume is less than 'n' days ago, color today’s volume bar orange.
- If today’s closing price is less than 'n' days ago but volume is not, color today’s volume bar red.
Buy the green or blue volume bars, use a 1% trailing stop, and stand aside on red or orange bars.
As you see, this is more for entry confirmation. I have not tested this on any instrument.
You may have to tune the lookback period for your instrument. Default is 10.

Safe Supertrend Strategy (No Repaint)Overview
The Safe Supertrend is a repaint-free version of the popular Supertrend trend-following indicator.
Most Supertrend indicators appear perfect on historical charts because they flip intrabar and then repaint after the candle closes.
This version fixes that by using close-of-bar confirmation only, making every trend flip 100% stable, safe, and non-repainting.
Why This Supertrend Doesn’t Repaint
Most Supertrend indicators calculate their trend direction using the current bar’s data.
But during a live candle:
ATR expands and contracts
The upper/lower bands move
Price moves above/below the band temporarily
A false flip appears → then disappears when the candle closes
That is classic repainting.
This indicator avoids all of that by using:
close > upper
close < lower
This means:
Trend direction flips only based on the previous candle,
No intrabar calculations,
No flickering signals,
No “perfect but fake” historical performance.
Every signal you see on the chart is exactly what was available in real-time.
How It Works
Calculates ATR (Average True Range) and SMA centerline
Builds upper and lower volatility bands
Confirms trend flips only after the previous bar closes
Plots clear bull and bear reversal signals
Works on all markets (crypto, stocks, forex, indices)
No repainting, no recalc, no misleading flips.
Bullish Signal (Trend Up)
A bullish trend begins only when:
The previous candle closes above the upper ATR band,
And this flip is fully confirmed.
A green triangle marks the start of a new uptrend.
Bearish Signal (Trend Down)
A bearish trend begins only when:
The previous candle closes below the lower ATR band,
And the downtrend is confirmed.
A red triangle signals the start of a new downtrend.
Inputs
ATR Length - default 10
ATR Multiplier - default 3.0
Works on all timeframes and market
Simple, but powerful.
Why Use This Version Instead of a Regular Supertrend?
Most Supertrends:
Look great historically
But repaint continuously on live charts
Give false trend flips intrabar
Cannot be reliably used in strategies
This version:
Uses strict previous-bar logic
Never repaints trend direction
Works perfectly in live trading
Backtests accurately
Is ideal for algorithmic strategies
Ideal For:
Trend-following strategies
Breakout trading
Algo trading systems
Reversal detection
Filtering market noise
Swing trading & scalping
Final Note
This is a safer, more reliable Supertrend designed for real-world use — not perfect-looking repaint illusions.
If you use Supertrend in your trading system, this no-repaint version ensures your signals are trustworthy and consistent.
Breakout Condition Indicator - Long - V2 - Mega 86Script used for swing trading - contains certain adjustable metrics that I use for scanning and day or entry
Average Directional Index infoAverage Directional Index (ADX) is a technical indicator created by J. Welles Wilder that measures trend strength (not direction!). Values range from 0 to 100.
This indicator is a supplementary tool for assessing whether trend strategies are worthwhile, monitoring changes in trend strength and avoiding weak, choppy movements
Value Interpretation:
0-25: Weak trend or sideways market
25-50: Moderate to strong trend
50-75: Very strong trend
75-100: Extremely strong trend (rare)
Important: ADX does not indicate trend direction (up/down), only its strength!
This script indicator includes additional features:
1. ADX Plot (purple line)
Basic ADX value showing current trend strength.
2. ADX Trend Analysis (arrows)
The script compares current ADX with its 10-period moving average with ±5% tolerance:
↑ (green): ADX rising → trend strengthening
↓ (red): ADX falling → trend weakening
⮆ (gray): ADX stable → trend strength unchanged
3. Information Table
Displays current ADX value with trend arrow in the top-right corner.
Parameters to Configure
Smoothing (default: 14) - Indicator smoothing period
Lower values (e.g., 7): more sensitive, more signals
Higher values (e.g., 21): more stable, less noise
Indicator Length (default: 14) - Period for calculating directional movement (+DI/-DI)
Wilder's standard value is 14
Trend Length (default: 10) - Period for moving average to analyze ADX dynamics
Determines how quickly changes in trend strength are detected
Practical Application
✅ Strategy 1: Trend Strength Filter
1. ADX > 25 → look for positions aligned with the trend
2. ADX < 25 → avoid trend strategies, consider oscillators
✅ Strategy 2: Entries on Strengthening Trend
1. ADX crosses above 25 + arrow ↑ → trend gaining momentum
2. Combine with other indicators (e.g., EMA) for direction confirmation
✅ Strategy 3: Exhaustion Warning
1. ADX > 50 + arrow ↓ → strong trend may be exhausting
2. Consider profit protection or trailing stop
Average True Range % infoATR% is a modified version of the classic Average True Range indicator that displays price volatility as a percentage of the instrument's value, rather than in absolute values. This allows you to easily compare the volatility of different assets (e.g., Bitcoin vs Tesla stock) regardless of their price.
Main Features
1. ATR% Chart
The red line shows the average volatility from the last N candles (default 14), expressed as a percentage. For example:
ATR% = 2.5% means that the average daily move is approximately 2.5% of the asset's value
Higher values = greater volatility (higher profit potential, but also greater risk)
Lower values = lower volatility (calmer market)
2. Volatility Trend Analysis
The indicator automatically detects whether volatility is rising, falling, or stable:
Up arrow (↑) - volatility is rising (price becomes more "nervous")
Down arrow (↓) - volatility is falling (market is calming down)
Horizontal arrow (⮆) - volatility is stable (within ±3% of the moving average)
3. Information Table
In the upper right corner of the chart you will see Current ATR% value and Trend arrow with color coding:
- Green = rising volatility
- Red = falling volatility
- Gray = stable volatility
Parameters to Configure
Indicator Length (default: 14) - How many candles back to include in calculations:
Lower values (5-10): more sensitive to sudden changes, reacts faster
Higher values (20-30): more smoothed, shows long-term volatility picture
Trend Length (default: 10) - Period to analyze whether volatility is rising/falling:
Lower values: faster trend change signals
Higher values: more reliable, but slower signals
Sample Interpretations
ATR% Volatility Asset Type/Situation
< 1% Very low Stable blue-chip stocks, calm market
1-3% Low-medium Typical stocks, normal conditions
3-5% Medium-high Volatile stocks, cryptocurrencies at rest
5-10% High Cryptocurrencies, penny stocks
> 10% Extremely high Market panic, crash, pump & dump
MAGIC MA BANDSMagic MA Bands — Dynamic Trend Zones Instead of Lines
Magic MA Bands help traders visualize dynamic support and resistance zones rather than relying on a single moving average line. Instead of treating the MA as an exact reaction level, this tool creates a band or zone where price is statistically more likely to react, reverse, or continue trending.
🧠 How It Works
The script plots:
Upper Band (default: 50 EMA using High values)
Lower Band (default: 50 EMA using Low values)
Optional Midline MA (default: 200 SMA for long-term trend)
The area between the upper and lower bands becomes a trend cushion, helping traders identify:
Dynamic support/resistance zones
Trend strength and continuation probability
Ideal pullback entry regions
🎯 Trend Interpretation Guide
Use Case Recommended Setting
Short-Term Trend 20/21 EMA or SMA
Medium-Term Trend 50 EMA / SMA
Long-Term Trend 200 SMA / EMA (Midline Optional)
All parameters are fully customisable so the user can define their preferred structure based on their trading style, asset volatility, or timeframe.

Time-Decay Liquidity Zones [BackQuant]Time-Decay Liquidity Zones
A dynamic liquidity map that turns single-bar exhaustion events into fading, color-graded zones, so you can see where trapped traders and unfinished business still matter, and when those areas have finally stopped pulling price.
What this is
This indicator detects unusually strong impulsive moves into wicks, converts them into supply or demand “zones,” then lets those zones decay over time. Each zone carries a strength score that fades bar by bar. Zones that stop attracting or rejecting price are gradually de-emphasized and eventually removed, while the most relevant areas stay bright and obvious.
Instead of static rectangles that live forever, you get a living liquidity map where:
Zones are born from objective criteria: volatility, wick size, and optional volume spikes.
Zones “age” using a configurable decay factor and maximum lifetime.
Zone color and opacity reflect current relative strength on a unified clear → green → red gradient.
Zones freeze when broken, so you can distinguish “active reaction areas” from “historical levels that have already given way”.
Conceptual idea
Large wicks with strong volatility often mark areas where aggressive orders met hidden liquidity and got absorbed. Price may revisit these areas to test leftover interest or to relieve trapped positions. However, not every wick matters for long. As time passes and more bars print, the market “forgets” some areas.
Time-Decay Liquidity Zones turns that idea into a rule-based system:
Find bars that likely reflect strong aggressive flows into liquidity.
Mark a zone around the wick using ATR-based thickness.
Assign a strength score of 1.0 at birth.
Each bar, reduce that score by a decay factor and remove zones that fall below a threshold or live too long.
Color all surviving zones from weak to strong using a single gradient scale and a visual legend.
How events are detected
Detection lives in the Event Detection group. The script combines range, wick size, and optional volume filters into simple rules.
Volatility filter
ATR Length — computes a rolling ATR over your chosen window. This is the volatility baseline.
Min range in ATRs — bar range (High–Low) must exceed this multiple of ATR for an event to be considered. This avoids tiny bars triggering zones.
Wick filters
For each bar, the script splits the candle into body and wicks:
Upper wick = High minus the max(Open, Close).
Lower wick = min(Open, Close) minus Low.
Then it tests:
Upper wick condition — upper wick must be larger than Min wick size in ATRs × ATR.
Lower wick condition — lower wick must be larger than Min wick size in ATRs × ATR.
Only bars with a sufficiently long wick relative to volatility qualify as candidate “liquidity events”.
Volume filter
Optionally, the script requires a volume spike:
Use volume filter — if enabled, volume must exceed a rolling volume SMA by a configurable multiplier.
Volume SMA length — period for the volume average.
Volume spike multiplier — how many times above the SMA current volume needs to be.
This lets you focus only on “heavy” tests of liquidity and ignore quiet bars.
Event types
Putting it together:
Upper event (potential supply / long liquidation, etc.)
Occurs when:
Upper wick is large in ATR terms.
Full bar range is large in ATR terms.
Volume is above the spike threshold (if enabled).
Lower event (potential demand / short liquidation, etc.)
Symmetric conditions using the lower wick.
How zones are constructed
Zone geometry lives in Zone Geometry .
When an event is detected, the script builds a rectangular box that anchors to the wick and extends in the appropriate direction by an ATR-based thickness.
For upper (supply-type) zones
Bottom of the zone = event bar high.
Top of the zone = event bar high + Zone thickness in ATRs × ATR.
The zone initially spans only the event bar on the x-axis, but is extended to the right as new bars appear while the zone is active.
For lower (demand-type) zones
Top of the zone = event bar low.
Bottom of the zone = event bar low − Zone thickness in ATRs × ATR.
Same extension logic: box starts on the event bar and grows rightward while alive.
The result is a band around the wick that scales with volatility. On high-ATR charts, zones are thicker. On calm charts, they are narrower and more precise.
Zone lifecycle, decay, and removal
All lifecycle logic is controlled by the Decay & Lifetime group.
Each zone carries:
Score — a floating-point “importance” measure, starting at 1.0 when created.
Direction — +1 for upper zones, −1 for lower zones.
Birth index — bar index at creation time.
Active flag — whether the zone is still considered unbroken and extendable.
1) Active vs broken
Each confirmed bar, the script checks:
For an upper zone , the zone is counted as “broken” when the close moves above the top of the zone.
For a lower zone , the zone is counted as “broken” when the close moves below the bottom of the zone.
When a zone breaks:
Its right edge is frozen at the previous bar (no further extension).
The zone remains on the chart, but is no longer updated by price interaction. It still decays in score until removal.
This lets you see where a major level was overrun, while naturally fading its influence over time.
2) Time decay
At each confirmed bar:
Score := Score × Score decay per bar .
A decay value close to 1.0 means very slow decay and long-lived zones.
Lower values (closer to 0.9) mean faster forgetting and more current-focused zones.
You are controlling how quickly the market “forgets” past events.
3) Age and score-based removal
Zones are removed when either:
Age in bars exceeds Max bars a zone can live .
This is a hard lifetime cap.
Score falls below Minimum score before removal .
This trims zones that have decayed into irrelevance even if their age is still within bounds.
When a zone is removed, its box is deleted and all associated state is freed to keep performance and visuals clean.
Unified gradient and color logic
Color control lives in Gradient & Color . The indicator uses a single continuous gradient for all zones, above and below price, so you can read strength at a glance without guessing what palette means what.
Base colors
You set:
Mid strength color (green) — used for mid-level strength zones and as the “anchor” in the gradient.
High strength color (red) — used for the strongest zones.
Max opacity — the maximum visual opacity for the solid part of the gradient. Lower values here mean more solid; higher values mean more transparent.
The script then defines three internal points:
Clear end — same as mid color, but with a high alpha (close to transparent).
Mid end — mid color at the strongest allowed opacity.
High end — high color at the strongest allowed opacity.
Strength normalization
Within each update:
The script finds the maximum score among all existing zones.
Each zone’s strength is computed as its score divided by this maximum.
Strength is clamped into .
This means a zone with strength 1.0 is currently the strongest zone on the chart. Other zones are colored relative to that.
Piecewise gradient
Color is assigned in two stages:
For strength between 0.0 and 0.5: interpolate from “clear” green to solid green.
Weak zones are barely visible, mid-strength zones appear as solid green.
For strength between 0.5 and 1.0: interpolate from solid green to solid red.
The strongest zones shift toward the red anchor, clearly separating them from everything else.
Strength scale legend
To make the gradient readable, the indicator draws a vertical legend on the right side of the chart:
About 15 cells from top (Strong) to bottom (Weak).
Each cell uses the same gradient function as the zones themselves.
Top cell is labeled “Strong”; bottom cell is labeled “Weak”.
This legend acts as a fixed reference so you can instantly map a zone’s color to its approximate strength rank.
What it plots
At a glance, the indicator produces:
Upper liquidity zones above price, built from large upper wick events.
Lower liquidity zones below price, built from large lower wick events.
All zones colored by relative strength using the same gradient.
Zones that freeze when price breaks them, then fade out via decay and removal.
A strength scale legend on the right to interpret the gradient.
There are no extra lines, labels, or clutter. The focus is the evolving structure of liquidity zones and their visual strength.
How to read the zones
Bright red / bright green zones
These are your current “major” liquidity areas. They have high scores relative to other zones and have not yet decayed. Expect meaningful reactions, absorption attempts, or spillover moves when price interacts with them.
Faded zones
Pale, nearly transparent zones are either old, decayed, or minor. They can still matter, but priority is lower. If these are in the middle of a long consolidation, they often become background noise.
Broken but still visible zones
Zones whose extension has stopped have been overrun by closing price. They show where a key level gave way. You can use them as context for regime shifts or failed attempts.
Absence of zones
A chart with few or no zones means that, under your current thresholds, there have not been strong enough liquidity events recently. Either tighten the filters or accept that recent price action has been relatively balanced.
Use cases
1) Intraday liquidity hunting
Run the indicator on lower timeframes (e.g., 1–15 minute) with moderately fast decay.
Use the upper zones as potential sell reaction areas, the lower zones as potential buy reaction areas.
Combine with order flow, CVD, or footprint tools to see whether price is absorbing or rejecting at each zone.
2) Swing trading context
Increase ATR length and range/wick multipliers to focus only on major spikes.
Set slower decay and higher max lifetime so zones persist across multiple sessions.
Use these zones as swing inflection areas for larger setups, for example anticipating re-tests after breakouts.
3) Stop placement and invalidation
For longs, place invalidation beyond a decaying lower zone rather than in the middle of noise.
For shorts, place invalidation beyond strong upper zones.
If price closes through a strong zone and it freezes, treat that as additional evidence your prior bias may be wrong.
4) Identifying trapped flows
Upper zones formed after violent spikes up that quickly fail can mark trapped longs.
Lower zones formed after violent spikes down that quickly reverse can mark trapped shorts.
Watching how price behaves on the next touch of those zones can hint at whether those participants are being rescued or squeezed.
Settings overview
Event Detection
Use volume filter — enable or disable the volume spike requirement.
Volume SMA length — rolling window for average volume.
Volume spike multiplier — how aggressive the volume spike filter is.
ATR length — period for ATR, used in all size comparisons.
Min wick size in ATRs — minimum wick size threshold.
Min range in ATRs — minimum bar range threshold.
Zone Geometry
Zone thickness in ATRs — vertical size of each liquidity zone, scaled by ATR.
Decay & Lifetime
Score decay per bar — multiplicative decay factor for each zone score per bar.
Max bars a zone can live — hard cap on lifetime.
Minimum score before removal — score cut-off at which zones are deleted.
Gradient & Color
Mid strength color (green) — base color for mid-level zones and the lower half of the gradient.
High strength color (red) — target color for the strongest zones.
Max opacity — controls the most solid end of the gradient (0 = fully solid, 100 = fully invisible).
Tuning guidance
Fast, session-only liquidity
Shorter ATR length (e.g., 20–50).
Higher wick and range multipliers to focus only on extreme events.
Decay per bar closer to 0.95–0.98 and moderate max lifetime.
Volume filter enabled with a decent multiplier (e.g., 1.5–2.0).
Slow, structural zones
Longer ATR length (e.g., 100+).
Moderate wick and range thresholds.
Decay per bar very close to 1.0 for slow fading.
Higher max lifetime and slightly higher min score threshold so only very weak zones disappear.
Noisy, high-volatility instruments
Increase wick and range ATR multipliers to avoid over-triggering.
Consider enabling the volume filter with stronger settings.
Keep decay moderate to avoid the chart getting overloaded with old zones.
Notes
This is a structural and contextual tool, not a complete trading system. It does not account for transaction costs, execution slippage, or your specific strategy rules. Use it to:
Highlight where liquidity has recently been tested hard.
Rank these areas by decaying strength.
Guide your attention when layering in separate entry signals, risk management, and higher-timeframe context.
Time-Decay Liquidity Zones is designed to keep your chart focused on where the market has most recently “cared” about price, and to gradually forget what no longer matters. Adjust the detection, geometry, decay, and gradient to fit your product and timeframe, and let the zones show you which parts of the tape still have unfinished business.

Two Supertrend Crossover SignalThis indicator is designed to visualize trend shifts using two Supertrend lines and a crossover-based signal system.
It also colors the area between the two Supertrend lines based on the current trend direction, making trend changes easy to identify at a glance.
How It Works
The indicator plots:
Fast Supertrend (shorter ATR length, lower factor)
Slow Supertrend (longer ATR length, higher factor)
A crossover between these two Supertrend lines indicates a possible trend shift.
Buy Signal
A BUY signal occurs when: Fast Supertrend crosses ABOVE Slow Supertrend
This suggests bullish momentum strengthening.
Sell Signal
A SELL signal occurs when: Fast Supertrend crosses BELOW Slow Supertrend
This suggests bearish momentum increasing.
Buy/Sell Signal Labels
The chart displays clear BUY (green) and SELL (red) labels at every crossover.
These signals help traders quickly pinpoint potential entries or exits.
This indicator is ideal for:
✓ Trend trading
✓ Swing trading
✓ Identifying momentum shifts
✓ Visual confirmation of market direction
✓ Combining with price action or EMA filters
You may adjust ATR length and multiplier depending on the timeframe:
For Scalping (1–5 min):
Fast ATR: 5–7
Slow ATR: 10–14
For Intraday (5–15 min):
Fast ATR: 7
Slow ATR: 10–14
For Swing Trading (1h–4h):
Fast ATR: 10
Slow ATR: 20
Important Notes
This indicator does not repaint the Supertrend values.
Signals are based on confirmed crossovers.
Use stop-loss and risk management appropriate for your strategy.
Always combine with market context (support/resistance, volume, etc.)
Swing Point PnL PressureThis indicator visualizes the cumulative profit potential of bulls and bears based on recent swing highs and lows — offering a unique lens into trend maturity, sentiment imbalance, and exhaustion risk.
🟢 Bull PnL rises as price moves above prior swing lows — reflecting unrealized gains for long positions
🔴 Bear PnL rises as price drops below prior swing highs — capturing short-side profitability
Over time, these curves diverge during strong trends, revealing which side is in control. But when they converge, it often signals that the dominant side is losing steam — a potential turning point where profit-taking, traps, or reversals may emerge.
This tool doesn’t predict tops or bottoms — it tracks the emotional and financial pressure building on each side of the market. Use it to:
Spot trend exhaustion before price confirms it
Identify profit parity zones where sentiment may flip
Time accumulation or distribution phases with greater confidence
Whether you’re swing trading or analyzing macro structure, this indicator helps you see what price alone can’t: who’s winning, who’s trapped, and who’s about to give up.
Candle 2 Closure📌 Indicator Presentation – Candle 2 Closure
" Candle 2 Closure "s is an indicator designed to identify three types of price–action-based signals in real time: Long, Short, and Generic.
The goal is to visually highlight moments when the market breaks a key level of the previous candle but rejects that break, closing on the opposite side.
The idea was inspired by the study of pure price action and specifically by the following video:
👉 www.youtube.com
🎯 How the Indicator Works
The indicator generates signals on bar close (barstate.isconfirmed), making them reliable and free from repainting.
🔵 LONG Signal
A long signal is triggered when:
The current candle breaks the low of the previous candle
But then closes back above that low
→ This is often a sign of a bear trap or a liquidity rejection to the downside.
🔴 SHORT Signal
A short signal is triggered when:
The current candle breaks the high of the previous candle
But then closes back below that high
→ This may indicate a bull trap or a liquidity rejection to the upside.
⚪ GENERIC Signal
A generic signal is triggered when:
A high or low is broken,
But neither the long nor short conditions are met,
Resulting in a simple unconfirmed break.
📍 Operational Advantages
Highlights liquidity absorption zones
Works on all timeframes (1m → 1D)
Useful for scalping, intraday, or swing trading
Clear and immediate visual signals on the chart
Zero repainting
✨ Visual Style
LONG displayed below the candle, white color
SHORT displayed above the candle, white color
Generic signal shown with a neutral label

SHORT Signal:
Triggers when the market demonstrates bearish momentum with price confirming a downside breakdown while both moving averages are in a favorable downtrend alignment.
Key Features:
Uses a 20-period and 40-period simple moving average on the 4-hour timeframe
Filters out false signals by requiring multi-factor confirmation
Generates clear visual alerts with background highlighting
Real-time dashboard showing current MA values and trend direction
Sound/notification alerts for immediate signal awareness
Best Used For:
Swing trading on higher timeframes with proper risk management and support from additional confluence factors on your trading setup.
Pivot crossThis script is simple way of seeing the trend using two pivots, one with lower time frame and other with higher timeframe. When the lower crosses above higher, its bullish, when lower crosses below higher pivot then bearish. Works on any timeframes for intraday and swing trading.
Volume Peak Box📄 English Description
Overview
The Volume Peak Box indicator highlights periods of unusually high volume by identifying volume spikes using Bollinger Bands on volume and drawing a price-range box around each spike window. This provides traders with a clear visual representation of supply/demand imbalances, absorption zones, and breakout/false-break areas.
All calculations come from one unified concept: detecting statistically significant volume peaks on a locked timeframe and mapping them onto the chart.
Concept & Logic
1. Locked Timeframe Volume Analysis
Instead of using the current chart timeframe, this script allows users to lock volume analysis to any timeframe (e.g., 60m, 4H, 1D).
The script retrieves from the chosen timeframe:
Volume
High price
Low price
This allows volume structure from higher timeframes to be used while trading lower timeframes.
2. Bollinger Bands on Volume
Volume volatility is analyzed using a standard Bollinger Band model:
Basis = SMA(volume, BB length)
Upper Band = Basis + (mult × standard deviation)
When:
Volume > Upper Band
→ This bar is classified as a Volume Peak.
This approach makes the peak detection statistically meaningful, instead of simply comparing raw volume to previous bars.
3. Peak Session Detection (Continuous Peaks Form One Box)
The script tracks continuous volume peaks:
When a peak starts → begin a session
While peaks continue → extend the session
When peaks end → session closes and a box is created
For each peak session, the script records:
Start bar index
End bar index
Highest high within the session
Lowest low within the session
These values determine the box boundaries.
This allows the indicator to group related peaks into a single price zone, instead of drawing a box for every bar.
4. Drawing the Volume Peak Box
When a session ends, the script draws:
A filled box covering the full price range
From startBar → endBar
Using user-defined:
Box fill color
Border color
Each box visually marks a region where strong participation entered the market, often signaling:
Breakout validation
Absorption zones
Supply/demand imbalance
High-activity trading decisions
How to Use
Use the boxes to identify high-volume reaction zones.
When price revisits a box:
Expect strong reactions (bounce, rejection, or absorption).
When price breaks out from a box:
Can signal continuation with momentum.
Lower-timeframe entry signals become more reliable when aligned with high-timeframe volume boxes.
Recommended to lock the TF to:
60m for intraday
4H or 1D for swing trading
Why This Script Is Original
It uses Bollinger Bands on volume, not price — a less common volatility-based method for detecting volume anomalies.
It groups continuous peaks into unified zones instead of treating each spike separately.
The ability to lock the volume analysis to a higher timeframe allows multi-timeframe volume interpretation without cluttering the chart.
Boxes give traders a clean and intuitive view of volume-based “decision zones”.

ภาพรวม
อินดิเคเตอร์ Volume Peak Box ใช้การตรวจจับ “Volume Peak” โดยใช้ Bollinger Band บน Volume แล้วสร้าง “กล่องช่วงราคา” ครอบช่วงที่มี Volume สูงผิดปกติ ทำให้เห็นบริเวณที่มีแรงซื้อขายเข้ามาอย่างชัดเจน เช่น จุด Breakout, จุด Absorption, หรือเขต Supply/Demand
แนวคิดและหลักการทำงาน
1. วิเคราะห์ Volume จาก Timeframe ที่ล็อกไว้
คุณสามารถเลือก TF ที่ต้องการให้ Volume ถูกนำมาคำนวณ เช่น 60 นาที, 4 ชั่วโมง, 1 วัน
แม้คุณจะเปิดกราฟ TF เล็ก เช่น 5m แต่กล่องยังอิง volume จาก TF ที่เลือกไว้ ทำให้ได้ “โซน Volume ใหญ่” ที่แม่นยำขึ้น
2. Bollinger Band บน Volume
ใช้ SMA + ส่วนเบี่ยงเบนมาตรฐานของ Volume เพื่อหา “จุดที่ Volume สูงกว่าปกติอย่างมีนัยสำคัญ”
เงื่อนไข Peak:
Volume > Upper Bollinger Band
นี่เป็นวิธีที่ดีกว่า “เทียบกับแท่งก่อนหน้า” เพราะคิดจากสถิติของทั้งช่วง
3. รวม Peak ต่อเนื่องเป็นกล่องเดียว
ถ้า Volume Peak เกิดต่อเนื่องหลายแท่ง:
จะถูกจับรวมเป็น Peak session เดียว
ใช้ High สูงสุด และ Low ต่ำสุดของทั้ง session
เมื่อ Peak จบ → วาดกล่องช่วงราคา
เหมาะกับการหาจุดที่ตลาดมีแรงเข้าซื้อ/ขายหนักในช่วงเวลาเดียวกัน
4. วาดกล่อง Volume Peak
กล่องจะครอบ:
ช่วงแท่งเริ่มต้น → แท่งสุดท้ายของ Peak
ความสูงของกล่อง = ช่วงราคาที่มี Volume สูงผิดปกติ
กล่องสามารถใช้เป็น:
โซน Breakout/Breakdown
โซน Supply/Demand
เขตที่ราคามักมี reaction
วิธีใช้งาน
ใช้กล่องเป็น “เขตการตัดสินใจ” (Decision Zone)
ราคาแตะซ้ำมักเกิดการกลับตัวหรือความผันผวนสูง
การทะลุกล่องบ่อยครั้งนำไปสู่ขาเทรนด์ใหญ่
เหมาะกับการใช้ร่วมกับ Price Action และโครงสร้างราคา
จุดเด่น / ความเป็น Original
ใช้ Bollinger Band บน Volume (น้อยอินดี้ทำ)
รวม Peak ต่อเนื่องเป็น session เดียว
วิเคราะห์ Volume ข้าม TF ได้ โดยไม่ต้องเปลี่ยน TF บนกราฟ
ได้ “โซน Volume สำคัญ” แบบชัดเจน อ่านง่าย ไม่รกจอ
