Divergences in 52 Week Moving Averages, Adjusted and SmoothedThis script description is intended to be holistic and comprehensive for the understanding of the interested parties who view the script.
Following the PineCoders suggestions, I have provided detailed breakdowns both within the code and in the description immediately below:
► Description
This description is intended to be detailed and meaningful, conveying the understanding of the script’s intention to the user:
The theory: Divergences and extreme readings in 52-Week highs on major indexes can provide a view into a potential pending move in the opposite direction of how the market has been trending. By comparing the 52-Week Hi/Lo indices and applying an Exponential Moving Average (EMA), we can assess how extreme a move is from the average. If the move provides an extreme reading, it would potentially be beneficial to “fade” the move (take a position in the opposing direction).
The intention: The intentionality of this script is to provide a visualization of when the highly-probable opportunity to fade over a multi-day or multi-week period arises. In addition to this, based on backtesting prior moves and reading the various levels of significant reversals, three tiers: “Standard”, “Sensitive”, and “Highly Sensitive” have been applied, the user can choose which sensitivity level they would like to see, there are far less false positives on the Standard and Sensitive settings, while Highly Sensitive often signals multiple times with the move coming a few days later.
The application: The settings allow the user to customize their sensitivity to the fade signals, with the ability to customize the visual that shows up as well. For higher-highs that are fade-worthy, the signal will appear on the top of the candle, for lower-lows that are fade-worthy, the signal will appear on the bottom of the candle. The users risk criteria should be the primary driver of the entry/exit, although when backtesting it appears that the significant move is typically completed within a 2-4 week period at max and 3-5 day period at minimum.
A personal note: I am a futures trader intraday but would very strongly caution users when using this strategy with futures (unless their risk tolerance is higher than most). The most beneficial strategy when fading moves would be to enter in tranches, starting at the first signal and adding on any pullback (as long as the pullback is not below the initial entry point). 1-6 Week Date-To-Expiry options would be the primary method for applying this strategy. I would also like to add that SPY/SPX options (SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust / CBOE S&P 500 Index) are the most liquid options that could be applied in this strategy.

Crypto Uptrend Script + Pullback//Volume CandlesDescription: his is an adaption of my Pullback candle - This works on all timeframes and Markets (Forex//Stocks//)
Crypto Uptrend Script with Pullback Candle allows traders to get into a trend when the price is at end of a pullback and entering a balance phase in the market (works on all markets). The use of Moving averages to help identify a Trends and the use of Key levels to help traders be aware of where strong areas are in the market.
This script can work really well in Crypto Bull Runs when used on HTF and with confluences
The script has key support and resistance zones which are made up of quarterly data. Price reacts to these areas but patience is required as price will take time to come into these areas
I have updated the Pullback Candle with the use of Volume to filter out the weak Pullback Candles -
There are new candles to the script.
The First candle is the Bullish Volume Candle - This candle is set to a multiplier of 2x with a crossover of 50/100 on Volume - this then will paint a purple candle.
Uses of the Bullish Volume Candle:
Breakthrough of key areas // special chart patterns
Rejection of key areas
End of a impulse wave (Profit Takers)
The second candle is a Hammer - I prefer using the Hammers on Higher Timeframes however they do work on all timeframes. .
The third candle is a Exhaustion of impulse downward move.
Uses of this candle - can denote a new trend but has to be with confluence to a demand area // support area or with any use of technical analysis - using this alone is not advised
The fourth candle is a indecision candle in the shape of a Doji - this candle can help identify if the trend is in a continuation or a reversal
This script can work really well in Crypto Bull Runs
Disclaimer: There will be Pullbacks with High Volume (Breakouts) and not go the way as intended but this script is to allow traders to get into trends at good price levels. The script can paint signals in areas where price is too expensive so please do your own due diligence on the markets as this script is to help get into good areas of price
Please leave a thumbs up if you like this script and message me for information on how to use the script.
Weis V5 zigzag jayySomehow, I deleted version 5 of the zigzag script. Same name. I have added some older notes describing how the Weis Wave works.
I have also changed the date restriction that stopped the script from working after Dec 31, 2022.
What you see here is the Weis zigzag wave plotted directly on the price chart. This script is the companion to the Weis cumulative wave volume script.
What is a Weis wave? David Weis has been recognized as a Wyckoff method analyst he has written two books one of which, Trades About to Happen, describes the evolution of the now-popular Weis wave. The method employed by Weis is to identify waves of price action and to compare the strength of the waves on characteristics of wave strength. Chief among the characteristics of strength is the cumulative volume of the wave. There are other markers that Weis uses as well for example how the actual price difference between the start of the Weis wave from start to finish. Weis also uses time, particularly when using a Renko chart
David Weis did a futures io video which is a popular source of information about his method. (Search David Weis and futures.io. I strongly suggest you also read “Trades About to Happen” by David Weis.
This will get you up and running more quickly when studying charts. However, you should choose the Traditional method to be true to David Weis technique as described in his book "Trades About to Happen" and in the Futures IO Webcast featuring David Weis
. The Weis pip zigzag wave shows how far in terms of bar close price a Weis wave has traveled through the duration of a Weis wave. The Weis zigzag wave is used in combination with the Weis cumulative volume wave. The two waves should be set to the same "wave size".
To use this script, you must set the wave size: Using the traditional Weis method simply enter the desired wave size in the box "How should wave size be calculated", in this example I am using a traditional wave size of .25. Each wave for each security and each timeframe requires its own wave size. Although not the traditional method devised by David Weis a more automatic way to set wave size would be to use Average True Range (ATR). Using ATR is not the true Weis method but it does give you similar waves and, importantly, without the hassle described above. Once the Weis wave size is set then the zigzag wave will be shown with volume. Because Weis used the closing price of a wave to define waves a line Bar highs and bar lows are not captured by the Weis Wave. The default script setting is now cumulative volume waves using an ATR of 7 and a multiplication factor of .5.
To display volume in a way that does not crowd out neighbouring volumes Weis displayed volume as a maximum of 3 digits (usually). Consider two Weis Wave volumes 176,895,570 and 2,654,763,889. To display wave volume as three digits it is necessary to take a number such as 176,895,570 and truncate it. 176,895,570 can be represented as 177 X 10 to the power of 6. The number displayed must also be relative to other numbers in the field. If the highest volume on the page is: 2,654,763,889 and with only three numbers available to display the result the value shown must be 265 (265 X 10 to the power of 7). Since 176,895,570 is an order of magnitude smaller than 2,654,763,889 therefore 175,895,570 must be shown as 18 instead of 177. In this way, the relative magnitudes of the two volumes can be understood. All numbers in the field of view must be truncated by the same order of magnitude to make the relative volumes understandable. The script attempts to calculate the order of magnitude value automatically. If you see a red number in the field of view it means the script has failed to do the calculation automatically and you should use the manual method – use the dialogue box “Calculate truncated wave value automatically or manually”. Scroll down from the automatic method and select manual. Once "manual" is selected the values displayed become the power values or multipliers for each wave.
Using the manual method you will select a “Multiplier” in the next dialogue box. Scan the field and select the largest value in the field of view (visible chart) is the multiplier of interest. If you select a lower number than the maximum value will see at least one red “up”. If you are too high you will see at least one red “down”. Scroll in the direction recommended or the values on the screen will be totally incorrect. With volume truncated to the highest order values, the eye can quickly get a feel for relative volumes. It also reduces the crowding and overlapping of values on the screen. You can opt to show the full volume to help get a sense of the magnitude of the true volumes.
How does the script determine if a Weis wave is continuing to grow or not?
The script evaluates the closing price of each new bar relative to the "Weis wave size". Suppose the current bar closes at a new low close, within the current down wave, at $30.00. If the Weis wave size is $0.10 then the algorithm will remember the $30.00 close and compare it to the close of the next bar. If the bar close price does not close equal to or lower than $30.00 or close equal to or higher than $30.10 then the wave is still a down wave with a current low of $30.00. This is true even if the bar low is less than $30.00 or the bar high is greater than 30.10 – only the bar’s closing price matters. If a bar's closing price climbs back up to a close of $30.11 then because the closing price has moved more than $0.10 (the Weis wave size) then that is a wave reversal with a new up-trending wave. In the above example if there was currently a downward trending wave and the bar closes were as follows $30.00, $30.09, $30.01, $30.05, $30.10 The wave direction would continue to stay downward trending until the close of $30.10 was achieved. As such $30.00 would be the low and the following closes $30.09, $30.01, $30.05 would be allocated to the new upward-trending wave. If however There was a series of bar closes like this $30.00, $30.09, $30.01, $30.05, $29.99 since none of the closes was equal to above the 10-cent reversal target of $30.10 but instead, a new Weis wave low was achieved ($29.99). As such the closes of $30.09, $30.01, $30.05 would all be attributed to the continued down-trending wave with a current low of $29.99, even though the closing price for the interim bars was above $30.00. Now that the Weis Wave low is now 429.99 then, in order to reverse this continued downtrend price will need to close at or above $30.09 on subsequent bar closes assuming now new low bar close is achieved. With large wave sizes, wave direction can be in limbo for many bars before a close either renews wave direction or reverses it and confirms wave direction as either a reversal or a continuation. On the zig-zag, a wave line and its volume will not be "printed" until a wave reversal is confirmed.
The wave attribution is similar when using other methods to define wave size. If ATR is used for wave size instead of a traditional wave constant size such as $0.10 or $2 or 2000 pips or ... then the wave size is calculated based on current ATR instead of the Weis wave constant (Traditional selected value).
I have the option to display pseudo-Ord volume. In truth, Ord used more traditional zig-zag pivots of bar highs and lows. Waves using closes as pivots can have some significant differences. This difference can be lessened by using smaller time frames and larger wave sizes.
There are other options such to display the delta price or pip size of a Weis Wave, the number of bars in a wave, and a few other options.
New Bearish Downtrend Script - Perfect for Short SellingIts been a while since i last uploaded a script, what i have for you today is a script which works very efficiently for downtrends and spotting reversals. This is a script i use on a weekly basis when looking to short sell.
This script includes :
Updated** Rally Candles for HTF and LTF ( End of Impulsive move signal) - The psychology of the candle when used with market information can be viewed as a end or near to the end of a big impulsive leg - when this candle occurs in BEARISH CONDITIONS, we can assume price is likely to move away short term.
Major and Minor Support Levels HTF (Areas of interest)
The Psychology on these levels is price will do something at these key levels - it takes in the last quarter price action of High Open Low Close to generate the price levels and when price comes into these areas we are likely to see a bounce or rejection from this area.
Bearish Breakout Volume Candle - This candle will paint a Purple colour bar when volume breaks above the 7day average - this shows strong momentum in the market and will usually be seen when price is in a downtrend with strong momentum.. However when this does occur we can expect a short term bounce or base so don't trade the volume bar alone.
Indecision Candles - Psychology of this candle is to show exhaustion in the trend and ideally what to see this candle appear with Rally Candles at key areas for stronger set up. When the trend is moving up, the bearish doji can appear - i tend to look at this situation as a pause in the trend.
200 EMA
Everything in this script has alert conditions to provide an edge in the markets
This is an example of how the script will look on the HTF I'm using the Daily Timeframe for reference on TSLA
This is an example of how the script looks like on the LTF, price hit the Major Resistance twice and failed to hit the 3rd time and on each leg of the impulse, the chart portrayed the LTF Rally Candles
Heres an example on how to use both Major Resistance ( Area of Interest) Rally Candle and Volume Breakout as a trade set up idea - This setup idea was on Crude Oil last week and into this week.
When added to confluences such as Supply Zones, Mitigation Levels, Quasimodo patterns etc... this will enhance the script.
I will answer any questions if i haven't made the script clear or take any requests to improve the script.
Also will be uploading the Bullish Uptrend Script soon.
CVD - Cumulative Volume Delta Candles█ OVERVIEW
This indicator displays cumulative volume delta in candle form. It uses intrabar information to obtain more precise volume delta information than methods using only the chart's timeframe.
█ CONCEPTS
Bar polarity
By bar polarity , we mean the direction of a bar, which is determined by looking at the bar's close vs its open .
Intrabars
Intrabars are chart bars at a lower timeframe than the chart's. Each 1H chart bar of a 24x7 market will, for example, usually contain 60 bars at the lower timeframe of 1min, provided there was market activity during each minute of the hour. Mining information from intrabars can be useful in that it offers traders visibility on the activity inside a chart bar.
Lower timeframes (LTFs)
A lower timeframe is a timeframe that is smaller than the chart's timeframe. This script uses a LTF to access intrabars. The lower the LTF, the more intrabars are analyzed, but the less chart bars can display CVD information because there is a limit to the total number of intrabars that can be analyzed.
Volume delta
The volume delta concept divides a bar's volume in "up" and "down" volumes. The delta is calculated by subtracting down volume from up volume. Many calculation techniques exist to isolate up and down volume within a bar. The simplest techniques use the polarity of interbar price changes to assign their volume to up or down slots, e.g., On Balance Volume or the Klinger Oscillator . Others such as Chaikin Money Flow use assumptions based on a bar's OHLC values. The most precise calculation method uses tick data and assigns the volume of each tick to the up or down slot depending on whether the transaction occurs at the bid or ask price. While this technique is ideal, it requires huge amounts of data on historical bars, which usually limits the historical depth of charts and the number of symbols for which tick data is available.
This indicator uses intrabar analysis to achieve a compromise between the simplest and most precise methods of calculating volume delta. In the context where historical tick data is not yet available on TradingView, intrabar analysis is the most precise technique to calculate volume delta on historical bars on our charts. Our Volume Profile indicators use it. Other volume delta indicators in our Community Scripts such as the Realtime 5D Profile use realtime chart updates to achieve more precise volume delta calculations, but that method cannot be used on historical bars, so those indicators only work in real time.
This is the logic we use to assign intrabar volume to up or down slots:
• If the intrabar's open and close values are different, their relative position is used.
• If the intrabar's open and close values are the same, the difference between the intrabar's close and the previous intrabar's close is used.
• As a last resort, when there is no movement during an intrabar and it closes at the same price as the previous intrabar, the last known polarity is used.
Once all intrabars making up a chart bar have been analyzed and the up or down property of each intrabar's volume determined, the up volumes are added and the down volumes subtracted. The resulting value is volume delta for that chart bar.
█ FEATURES
CVD Candles
Cumulative Volume Delta Candles present volume delta information as it evolves during a period of time.
This is how each candle's levels are calculated:
• open : Each candle's' open level is the cumulative volume delta for the current period at the start of the bar.
This value becomes zero on the first candle following a CVD reset.
The candles after the first one always open where the previous candle closed.
The candle's high, low and close levels are then calculated by adding or subtracting a volume value to the open.
• high : The highest volume delta value found in intrabars. If it is not higher than the volume delta for the bar, then that candle will have no upper wick.
• low : The lowest volume delta value found in intrabars. If it is not lower than the volume delta for the bar, then that candle will have no lower wick.
• close : The aggregated volume delta for all intrabars. If volume delta is positive for the chart bar, then the candle's close will be higher than its open, and vice versa.
The candles are plotted in one of two configurable colors, depending on the polarity of volume delta for the bar.
CVD resets
The "cumulative" part of the indicator's name stems from the fact that calculations accumulate during a period of time. This allows you to analyze the progression of volume delta across manageable chunks, which is often more useful than looking at volume delta cumulated from the beginning of a chart's history.
You can configure the reset period using the "CVD Resets" input, which offers the following selections:
• None : Calculations do not reset.
• On a fixed higher timeframe : Calculations reset on the higher timeframe you select in the "Fixed higher timeframe" field.
• At a fixed time that you specify.
• At the beginning of the regular session .
• On a stepped higher timeframe : Calculations reset on a higher timeframe automatically stepped using the chart's timeframe and following these rules:
Chart TF HTF
< 1min 1H
< 3H 1D
<= 12H 1W
< 1W 1M
>= 1W 1Y
The indicator's background shows where resets occur.
Intrabar precision
The precision of calculations increases with the number of intrabars analyzed for each chart bar. It is controlled through the script's "Intrabar precision" input, which offers the following selections:
• Least precise, covering many chart bars
• Less precise, covering some chart bars
• More precise, covering less chart bars
• Most precise, 1min intrabars
As there is a limit to the number of intrabars that can be analyzed by a script, a tradeoff occurs between the number of intrabars analyzed per chart bar and the chart bars for which calculations are possible.
Total volume candles
You can choose to display candles showing the total intrabar volume for the chart bar. This provides you with more context to evaluate a bar's volume delta by showing it relative to the sum of intrabar volume. Note that because of the reasons explained in the "NOTES" section further down, the total volume is the sum of all intrabar volume rather than the volume of the bar at the chart's timeframe.
Total volume candles can be configured with their own up and down colors. You can also control the opacity of their bodies to make them more or less prominent. This publication's chart shows the indicator with total volume candles. They are turned off by default, so you will need to choose to display them in the script's inputs for them to plot.
Divergences
Divergences occur when the polarity of volume delta does not match that of the chart bar. You can identify divergences by coloring the CVD candles differently for them, or by coloring the indicator's background.
Information box
An information box in the lower-left corner of the indicator displays the HTF used for resets, the LTF used for intrabars, and the average quantity of intrabars per chart bar. You can hide the box using the script's inputs.
█ INTERPRETATION
The first thing to look at when analyzing CVD candles is the side of the zero line they are on, as this tells you if CVD is generally bullish or bearish. Next, one should consider the relative position of successive candles, just as you would with a price chart. Are successive candles trending up, down, or stagnating? Keep in mind that whatever trend you identify must be considered in the context of where it appears with regards to the zero line; an uptrend in a negative CVD (below the zero line) may not be as powerful as one taking place in positive CVD values, but it may also predate a movement into positive CVD territory. The same goes with stagnation; a trader in a long position will find stagnation in positive CVD territory less worrisome than stagnation under the zero line.
After consideration of the bigger picture, one can drill down into the details. Exactly what you are looking for in markets will, of course, depend on your trading methodology, but you may find it useful to:
• Evaluate volume delta for the bar in relation to price movement for that bar.
• Evaluate the proportion that volume delta represents of total volume.
• Notice divergences and if the chart's candle shape confirms a hesitation point, as a Doji would.
• Evaluate if the progress of CVD candles correlates with that of chart bars.
• Analyze the wicks. As with price candles, long wicks tend to indicate weakness.
Always keep in mind that unless you have chosen not to reset it, your CVD resets for each period, whether it is fixed or automatically stepped. Consequently, any trend from the preceding period must re-establish itself in the next.
█ NOTES
Know your volume
Traders using volume information should understand the volume data they are using: where it originates and what transactions it includes, as this can vary with instruments, sectors, exchanges, timeframes, and between historical and realtime bars. The information used to build a chart's bars and display volume comes from data providers (exchanges, brokers, etc.) who often maintain distinct feeds for intraday and end-of-day (EOD) timeframes. How volume data is assembled for the two feeds depends on how instruments are traded in that sector and/or the volume reporting policy for each feed. Instruments from crypto and forex markets, for example, will often display similar volume on both feeds. Stocks will often display variations because block trades or other types of trades may not be included in their intraday volume data. Futures will also typically display variations.
Note that as intraday vs EOD variations exist for historical bars on some instruments, differences may also exist between the realtime feeds used on intraday vs 1D or greater timeframes for those same assets. Realtime reporting rules will often be different from historical feed reporting rules, so variations between realtime feeds will often be different from the variations between historical feeds for the same instrument. The Volume X-ray indicator can help you analyze differences between intraday and EOD volumes for the instruments you trade.
If every unit of volume is both bought by a buyer and sold by a seller, how can volume delta make sense?
Traders who do not understand the mechanics of matching engines (the exchange software that matches orders from buyers and sellers) sometimes argue that the concept of volume delta is flawed, as every unit of volume is both bought and sold. While they are rigorously correct in stating that every unit of volume is both bought and sold, they overlook the fact that information can be mined by analyzing variations in the price of successive ticks, or in our case, intrabars.
Our calculations model the situation where, in fully automated order handling, market orders are generally matched to limit orders sitting in the order book. Buy market orders are matched to quotes at the ask level and sell market orders are matched to quotes at the bid level. As explained earlier, we use the same logic when comparing intrabar prices. While using intrabar analysis does not produce results as precise as when individual transactions — or ticks — are analyzed, results are much more precise than those of methods using only chart prices.
Not only does the concept underlying volume delta make sense, it provides a window on an oft-overlooked variable which, with price and time, is the only basic information representing market activity. Furthermore, because the calculation of volume delta also uses price and time variations, one could conceivably surmise that it can provide a more complete model than ones using price and time only. Whether or not volume delta can be useful in your trading practice, as usual, is for you to decide, as each trader's methodology is different.
For Pine Script™ coders
As our latest Polarity Divergences publication, this script uses the recently released request.security_lower_tf() Pine Script™ function discussed in this blog post . It works differently from the usual request.security() in that it can only be used at LTFs, and it returns an array containing one value per intrabar. This makes it much easier for programmers to access intrabar information.
Look first. Then leap.
[Sextan] M-Oscillator BacktestLevel: 1
NOTE: This is a request by @scantor516 to backtest M-Oscillator by Mango2Juice with my Sextan framework. I ONLY take 5 minutes to perform it and how much time would you cost for this work?
Courtesy of Mango2Juice for M-Oscillator script.
You can backtest many of my indicators in minutes now! Of course,you can define your own indicator in the highlighted area in compliance with the uniform format, which guarantee when you use "Indicator on Indicator" function, it would not produce any error.
Background
Backtesting of technical indicators and strategies is the most common way to understand a quantitative strategy. However, the complicated configuration and adaptation work of backtesting many quantitative tools makes many traders who do not understand the code daunted. Moreover, although I have written a lot of strategies, I am still not very satisfied with the backtest configuration and writing efficiency. Therefore, I have been thinking about how to build a backtesting framework that can quickly and easily evaluate the backtesting performance of any indicator with a "long/short entry" indicator, that is, a "simple backtesting tool for dummies". The performance requirements should be stable, and the operation should be simple and convenient. It is best to "copy", "paste", and "a few mouse clicks" to complete the quick backtest and evaluation of a new indicator.
Luckily, I recently realized that TradingView provides an "Indicator on Indicator" feature, which is the perfect foundation for doing "hot swap" backtesting. My basic idea is to use a two-layer design. The first layer is the technical indicator signal source that needs to be embedded, which is only used to provide buy and sell signals of custom strategies; the second layer is the trading system, which is used to receive the output signals of the first layer, and filter the signals according to the agreed specifications. , Take Profit, Stop Loss, draw buy and sell signals and cost lines, define and send custom buy and sell alert messages to mobile phones, social software or trading interfaces. In general, this two-layer design is a flexible combination of "death and alive", which can meet the needs of most traders to quickly evaluate the performance of a certain technical indicator. The first layer here is flexible. Users can insert their own strategy codes according to my template, and they can draw buy and sell signals and output them to the second layer. The second layer is fixed, and the overall framework is solidified to ensure the stability and unity of the trading system. It is convenient to compare different or similar strategies under the same conditions. Finally, all trading signals are drawn on the chart, and the output strategy returns. test report.
The main function:
The first layer: "{Sextan} Your Indicator Source", the script provides a template for personalized strategy input, and the signal and definition interfaces ensure full compatibility with the second layer. Backtesting is performed stably in the backtesting framework of the layer. The first layer of this script is also relatively simple: enter your script in the highlighted custom script area, and after ensuring the final buy and sell signals long = bool condition, short = bool condition, the design of the first layer is considered complete. Input it into the PINE script editor of TradingView, save it and add it to the chart, you can see the pulse sequence in yellow (buy) and purple (sell) on the sub-picture, corresponding to the main picture, you can subjectively judge that the quality of the trading point of the strategy is good Bad.
The second layer: "{Sextan} PINEv4 Sextans Backtest Framework". This script is the standardized trading system strategy execution and alarm, used to generate the final report of the strategy backtest and some key indicators that I have customized that I find useful, such as: winning rate , Odds, Winning Surface, Kelly Ratio, Take Profit and Stop Loss Thresholds, Trading Frequency, etc. are evaluated according to the Kelly formula. To use the second layer, first load it into the TrainingView chart, no markers will appear on the chart, since you have not specified any strategy source signals, click on the gear-shaped setting next to the "{Sextan} PINEv4 Sextans BTFW" header button, you can open the backtest settings, the first item is to select your custom strategy source. Because we have added the strategy source to the chart in the previous step, you can easily find an option "{Sextan} Your Indicator Source: Signal" at the bottom of the list, this is the strategy source input we need, select and confirm , you can see various markers on the main graph, and quickly generate a backtesting profit graph and a list of backtesting reports. You can generate files and download the backtesting reports locally. You can also click the gear on the backtest chart interface to customize some conditions of the backtest, including: initial capital amount, currency type, percentage of each order placed, amount of pyramid additions, commission fees, slippage, etc. configuration. Note: The configuration in the interface dialog overrides the same configuration implemented by the code in the backtest script.
How to output charts:
The first layer: "{Sextan} Your Indicator Source", the output of this script is the pulse value of yellow and purple, yellow +1 means buy, purple -1 means sell.
The second layer: PINEv4 Sextans Backtest Framework". The output of this script is a bit complicated. After all, it is the entire trading system with a lot of information:
1. Blue and red arrows. The blue upward arrow indicates long position, the red downward arrow indicates short position, and the horizontal bar at the end of the purple arrow indicates take profit or stop loss exit.
2. Red and green lines. This is the holding cost line of the strategy, green represents the cost of holding a long position, and red represents the cost of holding a short position. The cost line is a continuous solid line and the price action is relatively close.
3. Green and yellow long take profit and stop loss area and green and yellow long take profit and stop loss fork. Once a long position is held, there is a conditional order for take profit and stop loss. The green horizontal line is the long take profit ratio line, and the yellow is the long stop loss ratio line; the green cross indicates the long take profit price, and the yellow cross indicates the long position. Stop loss price. It's worth noting that the prongs and wires don't necessarily go together. Because of the optimization of the algorithm, for a strong market, the take profit will occur after breaking the take profit line, and the profit will not be taken until the price falls.
4. The purple and red short take profit and stop loss area and the purple red short stop loss fork. Once a short position is held, there will be a take profit and stop loss conditional order, the red is the short take profit ratio line, and the purple is the short stop loss ratio line; the red cross indicates the short take profit price, and the purple cross indicates the short stop loss price.
5. In addition to the above signs, there are also text and numbers indicating the profit and loss values of long and short positions. "L" means long; "S" means short; "XL" means close long; "XS" means close short.
TradingView Strategy Tester Panel:
The overview graph is an intuitive graph that plots the blue (gain) and red (loss) curves of all backtest periods together, and notes: the absolute value and percentage of net profit, the number of all closed positions, the winning percentage, the profit factor, The maximum trading loss, the absolute value and ratio of the average trading profit and loss, and the average number of K-lines held in all trades.
Another is the performance summary. This is to display all long and short statistical indicators of backtesting in the form of a list, such as: net profit, gross profit, Sharpe ratio, maximum position, commission, times of profit and loss, etc.
Finally, the transaction list is a table indexed by the transaction serial number, showing the signal direction, date and time, price, profit and loss, accumulated profit and loss, maximum transaction profit, transaction loss and other values.
Remarks
Finally, I will explain that this is just the beginning of this model. I will continue to optimize the trading system of the second layer. Various optimization feedback and suggestions are welcome. For valuable feedback, I am willing to provide some L4/L5 technical indicators as rewards for free subscription rights.
Volume X-ray [LucF]█ OVERVIEW
This tool analyzes the relative size of volume reported on intraday vs EOD (end of day) data feeds on historical bars. If you use volume data to make trading decisions, it can help you improve your understanding of its nature and quality, which is especially important if you trade on intraday timeframes.
I often mention, when discussing volume analysis, how it's important for traders to understand the volume data they are using: where it originates, what it includes and does not include. By helping you spot sizeable differences between volume reported on intraday and EOD data feeds for any given instrument, "Volume X-ray" can point you to instruments where you might want to research the causes of the difference.
█ CONCEPTS
The information used to build a chart's historical bars originates from data providers (exchanges, brokers, etc.) who often maintain distinct historical feeds for intraday and EOD timeframes. How volume data is assembled for intraday and EOD feeds varies with instruments, brokers and exchanges. Variations between the two feeds — or their absence — can be due to how instruments are traded in a particular sector and/or the volume reporting policy for the feeds you are using. Instruments from crypto and forex markets, for example, will often display similar volume on both feeds. Stocks will often display variations because block trades or other types of trades may not be included in their intraday volume data. Futures will also typically display variations. It is even possible that volume from different feeds may not be of the same nature, as you can get trade volume (market volume) on one feed and tick volume (transaction counts) on another. You will sometimes be able to find the details of what different feeds contain from the technical information provided by exchanges/brokers on their feeds. This is an example for the NASDAQ feeds . Once you determine which feeds you are using, you can look for the reporting specs for that feed. This is all research you will need to do on your own; "Volume X-ray" will not help you with that part.
You may elect to forego the deep dive in feed information and simply rely on the figure the indicator will calculate for the instruments you trade. One simple — and unproven — way to interpret "Volume X-ray" values is to infer that instruments with larger percentages of intraday/EOD volume ratios are more "democratic" because at intraday timeframes, you are seeing a greater proportion of the actual traded volume for the instrument. This could conceivably lead one to conclude that such volume data is more reliable than on an instrument where intraday volume accounts for only 3% of EOD volume, let's say.
Note that as intraday vs EOD variations exist for historical bars on some instruments, there will typically also be differences between the realtime feeds used on intraday vs 1D or greater timeframes for those same assets. Realtime reporting rules will often be different from historical feed reporting rules, so variations between realtime feeds will often be different from the variations between historical feeds for the same instrument. A deep dive in reporting rules will quickly reveal what a jungle they are for some instruments, yet it is the only way to really understand the volume information our charts display.
█ HOW TO USE IT
The script is very simple and has no inputs. Just add it to 1D charts and it will calculate the proportion of volume reported on the intraday feed over the EOD volume. The plots show the daily values for both volumes: the teal area is the EOD volume, the orange line is the intraday volume. A value representing the average, cumulative intraday/EOD volume percentage for the chart is displayed in the upper-right corner. Its background color changes with the percentage, with brightness levels proportional to the percentage for both the bull color (% >= 50) or the bear color (% < 50). When abnormal conditions are detected, such as missing volume of one kind or the other, a yellow background is used.
Daily and cumulative values are displayed in indicator values and the Data Window.
The indicator loads in a pane, but you can also use it in overlay mode by moving it on the chart with "Move to" in the script's "More" menu, and disabling the plot display from the "Settings/Style" tab.
█ LIMITATIONS
• The script will not run on timeframes >1D because it cannot produce useful values on them.
• The calculation of the cumulative average will vary on different intraday timeframes because of the varying number of days covered by the dataset.
Variations can also occur because of irregularities in reported volume data. That is the reason I recommend using it on 1D charts.
• The script only calculates on historical bars because in real time there is no distinction between intraday and EOD feeds.
• You will see plenty of special cases if you use the indicator on a variety of instruments:
• Some instruments have no intraday volume, while on others it's the opposite.
• Missing information will sometimes appear here and there on datasets.
• Some instruments have higher intraday than EOD volume.
Please do not ask me the reasons for these anomalies; it's your responsibility to find them. I supply a tool that will spot the anomalies for you — nothing more.
█ FOR PINE CODERS
• This script uses a little-known feature of request.security() , which allows us to specify `"1440"` for the `timeframe` argument.
When you do, data from the 1min intrabars of the historical intraday feed is aggregated over one day, as opposed to the usual EOD feed used with `"D"`.
• I use gaps on my request.security() calls. This is useful because at intraday timeframes I can cumulate non- na values only.
• I use fixnan() on some values. For those who don't know about it yet, it eliminates na values from a series, just like not using gaps will do in a request.security() call.
• I like how the new switch structure makes for more readable code than equivalent if structures.
• I wrote my script using the revised recommendations in the Style Guide from the Pine v5 User Manual.
• I use the new runtime.error() to throw an error when the script user tries to use a timeframe >1D.
Why? Because then, my request.security() calls would be returning values from the last 1D intrabar of the dilation of the, let's say, 1W chart bar.
This of course would be of no use whatsoever — and misleading. I encourage all Pine coders fetching HTF data to protect their script users in the same way.
As tool builders, it is our responsibility to shield unsuspecting users of our scripts from contexts where our calcs produce invalid results.
• While we're on the subject of accessing intrabar timeframes, I will add this to the intention of coders falling victim to what appears to be
a new misconception where the mere fact of using intrabar timeframes with request.security() is believed to provide some sort of edge.
This is a fallacy unless you are sending down functions specifically designed to mine values from request.security() 's intrabar context.
These coders do not seem to realize that:
• They are only retrieving information from the last intrabar of the chart bar.
• The already flawed behavior of their scripts on historical bars will not improve on realtime bars. It will actually worsen because in real time,
intrabars are not yet ordered sequentially as they are on historical bars.
• Alerts or strategy orders using intrabar information acquired through request.security() will be using flawed logic and data most of the time.
The situation reminds me of the mania where using Heikin-Ashi charts to backtest was all the rage because it produced magnificent — and flawed — results.
Trading is difficult enough when doing the right things; I hate to see traders infected by lethal beliefs.
Strive to sharpen your "herd immunity", as Lionel Shriver calls it. She also writes: "Be leery of orthodoxy. Hold back from shared cultural enthusiasms."
Be your own trader.
█ THANKS
This indicator would not exist without the invaluable insights from Tim, a member of the Pine team. Thanks Tim!
Impact Zones - Skylyne InvestingWhat is the Impact Zone system:
The creation of Impact Zones started with our love for trading the Bond Market. Impact Zones were originally specifically tailored for the Bond market and now have been mastered to capture most of the Asset Classes out in the market today (Please look at Impact Zone Settings section for asset classes covered by this script). The Impact Zone system is a zone break (or market level break) following system with specific take profit points already established for you on the open of the market day (depending on your asset timing will vary).
*This script was designed for Intraday Trading, Long term or Swing Trading is not recommended with this system
The script will create buy and sell signals on the break of the Impact Zones when specific criteria is met along with the break of the zone. You do not have to use only our signals provided, you can also create your own trading rules based on our script.
Items to highlight:
Skylyne Upper Zone: Green Zone
Skylyne Middle: Yellow Line
Skylyne Lower Zone: Red Zone
Skylyne Take Profit Lines: Purple Lines
Skylyne Average: Orange Line (dynamic support/resistance)
Skylyne Overnight Session: Dark Blue (No Trade Zones)
Skylyne Signals: Buy / Sell
You can think of the Upper Zone as a bull zone and Lower zone as a bear zone, when price enters these zones we want to start watching price action to determine direction the market will take on the break or specified zone, whether it be a break and reversal or a break and run. This can be confirmed with either our signals (buy & sell) or the use of the dynamic support and resistance line (Skylyne Average).
Our script is written to capture market zones and place then on your screen with ease, we also have programmed in specific take profits and stop loss levels we have found the market respects on the intraday trading based on the Impact Zone captured.
The Impact Zones and Take Profit Levels change at Market open everyday. The levels provided will stay on your chart until the next Market open where the Impact Zones and Levels will change to accommodate that trading Day.
We recommend only using that trading days levels, however; using past levels can help trades depending on the case
The three Trades we want to highlight are:
1. Break of Impact Zones
a. This trade is taken when a break of the impact zone happens either in the positive or negative direction and traded to the next zone or take profit line (stop losses can be set with zones or the dynamic skylyne average crossovers)
2. Break of Skylyne Average
a. This trade is taken when price action confirms a bullish or bearish bias on the break of the average line (we would close this trade on the reverse break of the Skylyne Average using the zones as targets)
3. Break of the Skylyne Mid:
a. This trade is taken when a break of the Skylyne Mid level occurs and we use the upper and lower bounds of the Impact Zones as take profit and stop losses
Impact Zone Settings:
*Trading Category and Overnight Category must match the Asset Class being viewed on chart for accurate signals
1. Trading Category
a. Bonds
b. Corn/Wheat
c. Stocks
d. Index Futures
e. Euro/Dollar
f. Gold/Silver
2. Overnight Category
a. Bonds
b. Corn/Wheat
c. Stocks
d. Index Futures
e. Euro/Dollar
f. Gold/Silver
3. Chart Aggregation Limit (Default Value is 25 minutes)
Impact Zone Overnight Trading:
Impact Zone Overnight sessions are highlighted in a dark blue color and we use these highlighted time sessions as a NO TRADE session. Our system was built to be traded during normal market trading hours and overnight sessions tend to be less predictive in terms of direction and or zone reliance. If you choose to trade overnight sessions with Impact Zones, make sure you make a very in depth trading plan and stick to the rules set for yourself.
Impact Zone Signals:
1. Signals for buy or sell of the asset class happen on breaks of the Impact Zones, and when specific criteria are met that we determined necessary to evaluate the overall trend of the market
2. Not every break of the Impact Zones will trigger a signal
3. No signal will be generated during overnight sessions, we recommend studying overnight sessions before beginning to create your own overnight trading session plans based on Impact Zones
4. When a signal is generated you will use the next take profit line (purple line) in the direction of your trade you are in. Other trading signals were discussed above
5. If while you are in a trade and the skylyne average (orange line) is broke in the opposite direction of your trade you will take this as a dynamic stop, and in some cases a dynamic take profit
Impact Zone Charting Timeframes:
1. Recommendation of using the 1 minute chart aggregation bars to maximize profits and limit losses
2. The script has a default charting aggregation limit of 25 minutes, adjustments to the input (in the settings) to increase the aggregation limit need to be made in order to use higher than 25 minute timeframes
Charting Example:
First note is to notice how our publish example uses the 1-minute timeframe aggregation, this is because our script was written to maximize profit on the 1 minute time frame. The script can be used on any time frame, however; make sure that you increase the aggregation limit input when using timeframes above 25 minutes.
From the chart included in the script post, you can notice that buy and sell signals happen only when specified criteria is met, and not every time there is a crossover of the Impact Zones there is a signal. You do not only have to trade the buy and sell signals that our system provides, however; our team believes that these signals are one of the best ways to trade the Impact Zone script. If you deviate from only using signals provided and choose to use the Impact Zones differently, we recommend using the next level, or zone, in the direction of your trade as your take profit (As described in trade we want to highlight section)
Super Cipher BThis is the first release of Super Cipher B. The script will get regular updates and includes a user manual.
This is the first release of the script which is already powerful. The script has been designed to work as a binance futures trading bot.
I only recommend using it as it is now on coins that are in a long term bullish market.
I am not responsible for possible losses using this script as no script in the world can 100% guarantee to never take any losses.
The script is a modified version with new strategies and functionality. The original script was published for free by VumanChu, this script is based on the original code of that script. This is a version of the script used for Binance Futures botting and will provide buy Dots which are more failsafe than the original green divergence dot in the VumanChu script.
All info on how to set up the script for botting is inside the user manual: The user manual also includes my current profits on 3commas.
Weis pip zigzag jayyWhat you see here is the Weis pip zigzag wave plotted directly on the price chart. This script is the companion to the Weis pip wave ( ) which is plotted in the lower panel of the displayed chart and can be used as an alternate way of plotting the same results. The Weis pip zigzag wave shows how far in terms of price a Weis wave has traveled through the duration of a Weis wave. The Weis pip zigzag wave is used in combination with the Weis cumulative volume wave. The two waves must be set to the same "wave size".
To use this script you must set the wave size. Using the traditional Weis method simply enter the desired wave size in the box "Select Weis Wave Size" In this example, it is set to 5. Each wave for each security and each timeframe requires its own wave size. Although not the traditional method a more automatic way to set wave size would be to use ATR. This is not the true Weis method but it does give you similar waves and, importantly, without the hassle described above. Once the Weis wave size is set then the pip wave will be shown.
I have put a pip zigzag of a 5 point Weis wave on the bar chart - that is a different script. I have added it to allow your eye to see what a Weis wave looks like. You will notice that the wave is not in straight lines connecting wave tops to bottoms this is a function of the limitations of Pinescript version 1. This script would need to be in version 4 to allow straight lines. There are too many calculations within this script to allow conversion to Pinescript version 4 or even Version 3. I am in the process of rewriting this script to reduce the number of calculations and streamline the algorithm.
The numbers plotted on the chart are calculated to be relative numbers. The script is limited to showing only three numbers vertically. Only the highest three values of a number are shown. For example, if the highest recent pip value is 12,345 only the first 3 numerals would be displayed ie 123. But suppose there is a recent value of 691. It would not be helpful to display 691 if the other wave size is shown as 123. To give the appropriate relative value the script will show a value of 7 instead of 691. This informs you of the relative magnitude of the values. This is done automatically within the script. There is likely no need to manually override the automatically calculated value. I will create a video that demonstrates the manual override method.
What is a Weis wave? David Weis has been recognized as a Wyckoff method analyst he has written two books one of which, Trades About to Happen, describes the evolution of the now popular Weis wave. The method employed by Weis is to identify waves of price action and to compare the strength of the waves on characteristics of wave strength. Chief among the characteristics of strength is the cumulative volume of the wave. There are other markers that Weis uses as well for example how the actual price difference between the start of the Weis wave from start to finish. Weis also uses time, particularly when using a Renko chart. Weis specifically uses candle or bar closes to define all wave action ie a line chart.
David Weis did a futures io video which is a popular source of information about his method.
This is the identical script with the identical settings but without the offending links. If you want to see the pip Weis method in practice then search Weis pip wave. If you want to see Weis chart in pdf then message me and I will give a link or the Weis pdf. Why would you want to see the Weis chart for May 27, 2020? Merely to confirm the veracity of my algorithm. You could compare my Weis chart here () from the same period to the David Weis chart from May 27. Both waves are for the ES!1 4 hour chart and both for a wave size of 5.
TA Basics: further "Steps" with our Moving AverageSo far in this series of posts, we have worked thru creating a basic zero-lag moving average, then moved forward all the way to coding a "Fibonacci" Weighted Moving Average.
in this post we take a look at a technique that can help traders minimize noise in the underlying data and get better insight on the changes that are happening in the data series represented by the moving average. we'll look at adding "stepping" to our Fibonacci Moving Average as an example. we introduce the Stepping Fibonacci Moving Average , or Step_FiMA
note that you can use the same technique with any plot you may have. feel free to copy or leverage the relevant parts of the script - the script is commented to make this easier.
How is this useful?
==================
with "stepping", you get your indicator to "round" the outcome into pre-specified bands or ranges. this works very similar to how, for example, range or Renko charts work. you can easily see the difference in the chart above once we look at a non-stepped and a stepping moving average of the same length side-by-side
the more granular your timeframe is, you will see the effect of the stepping clearer - here's how the same chart looks when we go into the 1-hr aggregation
Notes about this script
====================
there are couple of pieces i wanted to highlight in the script if you plan to use some of it :
1 - the step(x) function is meant to try to automatically pick the best "suitable" step size based on the range of the underlying series (for example, the closing price). these ranges i included here in the code are just my own "best choices" - you are totally welcome to adjust these ranges and the resulting step size to your own preference
2 - we applied the stepping as a user-choice. user can choose a manual entry, or "0" to get the code to automatically pick the step size, or enter -1 (or actually any value below zero) to cancel the stepping option altogether - this gives us some flexibility on how to use the stepping in an indicator
3 - very important (and somehow confusing): on the "rounding" approach:
the magic math formula that actually creates the stepping is this one
result = round(input / step) * step
now, this tells the script to "round" the result up or down (the basic rounding) -- so for example, a price of 17 with a step of 5 would be rounded (down) to 15, where as a price of 18 would be rounded "up" to 20 -- this is not the way some of us would expect or want, cause the price never reached 20 and they would want an 18 to still be rounded to 15 - and the stepping line not to show 20 *until* the price actually hits or exceeds 20 -- in that case, you would need to replace the function "round" with the function "floor" --
so the new formula becomes: floor(input / step) * step
-- in an ideal world, we can make this rounding choice a user-option in the settings -- maybe in an improved version
4 - we kept the smoothing option, and it takes place before the stepping is applied - we continue to use that smoothing to further minimize the level changes in the FiMA line.
I hope you find this script useful in your journey with technical analysis and DIY scripting, and good luck in your trading.
GA - Momentum DivergencesGA Momentum Divergences Script highlights Trend Strength, Overbought-Oversold Conditions, Regular-Hidden Divergences. Besides, it shows the Buying-Selling Pressure.
The practical use of any Momentum Curve helps in the comprehension of:
Supply-Demand Absorption.
Thrusts and their shortening.
The reversing and the continuation of the trend.
True Strength of the Trend.
Price Strength.
Increase and Decrease in Buying-Selling Pressure.
You choose which curve to show, according to your needs. There are 2 groups of curves.
Momentum Curves
GA Momentum.
Commodity Channel Index ( CCI ).
Relative Strength Index ( RSI ).
Stochastic %K.
True Strength Indicator ( TSI ).
Money Flow Curves
GA Money Flow.
Chaikin Money Flow.
Money Flow Index.
Every Curve used in this script has 0 as center. This means that RSI and Stochastic Curves wave around 0 and not around 50.
Fractal Algorithm for Pivots and Divergences
GA Momentum script highlights Divergences. This is possible by the Fractal Calculation of Pivot Points .
The sensibility of the algorithm depends on the look back and on the look forward of pivot points . This means that it does not highlight every divergence. But it marks divergences according to settings.
Besides, the interpretation of those divergences depends on the experience of the trader.
This feature has a particular use for the purpose to simplify and optimize. Besides, it is a very important feature provided by the GA Money Flow script.
Regular and Hidden Divergences highlight the weakening and strengthening of the price behavior. They give an anticipation to price changing. Besides, they enforce the judgment on the condition that marks the price continuation.
The Fractal Algorithm can also mark a Channel. This happens enveloping the Curve between its marked pivot points .
Flags and lines mark Divergences in the Curve. GA Momentum Divergences highlights Regular Divergences and Hidden Divergences.
Price and Momentum, Volume and Money Flow
The GA Momentum script works with any marketplace. It uses price variations and volume variations, according to needs and market.
Every curve available in the script is a mathematical discretization of the market. But in those marketplaces that includes the volume you can use Money Flow Curves. Where the volume is missing the Money Flow Curves return zero. In this case, a Momentum Curve is the right choice because it uses the price variations.
GA Momentum and GA Money Flow are formulas built for this script. They include several peculiarities that are a privilege of other functions. This gives a better visual impact by their practical use.
TSI Curve or RSI Curve are the right choices to replace Money Flow Curves where the volume is not available. In the same way, RSI Curve can replace the TSI Curve for the Trend Strength. Then, the RSI Curve is universal. It works on any marketplace giving a lot of information, using it in the right way.
RSI is a slow curve. It waves above and below the middle line, according to the bullish and bearish trend . This is why it incorporates the Trend Strength in its calculation.
Instead, other choices give Faster Momentum Curves that give different advantages and peculiarities. The final result and purpose do not change.
Market Conditions
Overbought and Oversold Conditions could not cause the immediate reversing of the trend. The changing occurs according to Thrusts and their shortening.
This happens by one or more rebounds in the price action. Indeed, this marks hesitation to continue the advancing or the declining of the price.
The Momentum Curve can highlight the absorption of Supply Pressure and Supporting Demand. This precedes the Climactic Point so as a Thrust during the advancing or declining of the price.
True Strength and Money Flow curves follow the trend. They show where the trend is weakening or strengthening.
When these curves rise together with the trend, this confirms the trend. Instead, when these curves hesitate, they are marking a changing.
TSI and Money Flow have advantages. They show the continuation of the trend by its positive or negative value. Besides, they show the shortening of the trend. Moreover, the curve anticipates the shortening of the thrust.
Money Flow Curves highlights the prevailing of Buying Pressure of Selling Pressure. This is possible because their formulas includes the volume . But the TSI discretization that uses prices, works giving a fair result.
This returns an unconditional conclusion. The volume has a high relevance because of the correlation between effort and result. But despite this, the mathematical discretization of the market can work without it.
Short and Long Signal Lines
The GA Momentum plots 2 extra curves to support the market momentum interpretation. They are Exponential Moving Average applied to the momentum curve.
The Short Signal Line follows the main curve and it gives the first crossing for an entry signal. Of course, this is useful only when there are the right condition for an entry point.
Instead, the Long Signal Line exists to be a trending indicator. When the main curve is approaching it, rebounds, the shortening of the thrust, can mark a changing. Following the thrust, these curves become closer and closer for some waves. This becomes better visible by the plotting of the Histogram.
The Histogram shows the difference between the main curve and the Long Signal Line. The distance between those curves becomes relevant and helpful in many circumstances. This highlights the changing in the Strength or Weakness of the trend.
Short and Long Signal Curves can have a partial plotting. This reduces the impact of those curves on screen. The script can show them only when they give a relevant visual impact for the trading practice.
Coloring
GA Momentum Script colors curve and price bars. It highlights conditions where the price is Overbought or Oversold. But it highlights also divergences with labels and colored lines.
The script plots colors on bars with extended prices. Besides, the script plots colors on bars that are the ending of divergences
GA Momentum script colors the price bars using the same criteria applied to color curves. Color used on the Curve are the same used on the price bars.
True Strength Curve and Momentum Curves color price bars. This happens for the entire Trend Strength. Then the prevailing of the Buying Pressure or Bearish Pressure is also visible on bars. This occurs by the persistent green or red colors according to Pressure and Trend.
Alerts
GA Momentum provides 2 alerts for Bearish and Bullish Signals. Both uses the crossing of Short and Long Signals in the same direction.
Note: I restrict access to the tool.

Triple Moving Average HeatmapHi everyone
I didn't publish on Friday because I was working on an Expert Advisor in MT4. The day I don't publish, some scripts spamming guys published many (not useful) scripts the same to kick me out of the TOP #1 ranking.
So what I'm going to do about it? crying or sharing more quality scripts than before? :)
I guess you know the answer :) I'm gonna share a few quality scripts that I have in my library. I noticed that you guys tend to like more the scripts useful for your trading actually making you money rather than a copy-paste (of another copy-paste)
Alright, enough for the trolling now let's introduce the Three MA heatmap which is an upgrade of that script : MA-heatmap-Double-cross-edition/
The challenge was to keep the heatmap not rolling and to make it match with the MA cross. I did it using this
```
since_ma_buy = barssince(macrossover)
since_ma_sell = barssince(macrossunder)
heatmap_color() =>
since_ma_buy < since_ma_sell ? color.new(color.green, 20) : since_ma_buy > since_ma_sell ? color.new(color.red, 20) : na
```
This is a technique that I found after drinking three glasses of red wine (#french) to keep the heatmap stable and not rolling.
To get what I'm saying I invite you to replace the piece of code above by what everyone would normally do
```
heatmap_color() =>
macrossunder() ? color.new(color.green, 20) : macrossover() ? color.new(color.red, 20) : na
```
Ah and I'm not done sharing for the day, a few scripts are coming also after that one and tonight !!!!! I want to live in a world where you guys can enjoy quality scripts (mostly) :)
PS

Dragon-Bot - Default ScriptDragon-Script is a framework to make it as easy as possible to test your own strategies and set alerts for external execution bots. This is the alerts version of the script.
The script has many features build in, like:
1) A ping/pong mechanism between longs and shorts
2) A stop-loss
3) Trailing Stops with several ways to calculate them.
4) 2 different ways to flip from long to short.
The script is divided into several parts.
The first part of the script is used to set all the variables. You should normally never change the first part except for the comments at the top.
The second part of the script is the part where you initialise all your indicators. Several indicators can be found on Tradingview and on other sites. Please keep in mind that all the variable names used in the indicator should be unique. (all the … = … parts)
The third part of the script, is the most important part of the script. Here you can create the entry and exit points.
Let’s look at the OPENLONG function to explain this part: The first variables are all the possible entries; These are longentry1 till longentry5. You can add many more if you like.
The variables are all initialised as being false. This way the script can set a value to true if an entry happens.
The if function is the actual logic: You could say “if this is true” then (the line below the if function) longentry1 := (becomes) true.
In this case we have said: “if this is true” then (the line below the if function) longentry1 := (becomes) true when the current close is larger than the close that is 1 back.
The last part is the makelong_funct. This part says that if any of the entries are true, the whole function is true.
The last part of the script is the actual execution. Here the alerts are plotted and the back test strategies are opened and closed.
We hope you guys like it and all feedback is welcome!
ZenAlgo - DetectorThis script combines multiple volume data sources, calculates several forms of volume-based metrics, displays a table for Spot vs. Perpetual volumes, and visualizes several technical elements (such as cumulative delta, divergences, fractals, and specialized moving averages). The primary objective is to help analyze volume activity across different exchanges, compare Spot vs. Perpetual markets, and observe how shifting volumes may coincide with price action characteristics. This description aims to clarify each component, explain how the calculations are performed, and show you how to interpret the various chart markings.
Why Combine These Metrics in One Script?
Many publicly available volume-related tools focus only on a single exchange or a single type of volume (like spot or futures). This script merges multiple exchange sources for spot and perpetual data into a unified view. By doing so, users can detect discrepancies or confirm alignment between different markets without juggling multiple indicators. It also processes volume-derived signals (delta, divergences, fractals, etc.) in one place, sparing you from manually combining various standalone scripts. Through this integration, it becomes easier to observe how price and volume interact across different market segments.
Core Concept: Aggregated Volume
The script begins by collecting volumes from multiple exchanges in two categories:
Spot volumes – Typically aggregated under symbols ending with "USDT" or a user-selected currency, and
Perpetual volumes – From perpetual futures contracts (e.g., symbols ending in "USD.P" or "USDT.P").
All these exchange volumes are requested via the built-in request.security() function in a single line for each exchange. The user can enable or disable each exchange in the inputs. The script then calculates an "aggregated volume" for Spot, an aggregated volume for Perpetual, and an overall combined total.
This aggregated volume is used later to break down how much of each bar's volume can be considered "buy" or "sell" based on the bar's candle structure (body vs. wicks).
Volume-Based Calculations: Buy vs. Sell Volume and Delta
For each bar, the script estimates how much of the aggregated volume can be associated with a "buy side" and a "sell side."
Volume Buy is computed if the bar's close is above the open , giving more weight to the candle's body and allocating some portion of volume to the wicks as well.
Volume Sell is similarly computed if the bar's close is below the open .
This results in a Delta value: Delta = (Buy Volume) – (Sell Volume).
Additionally, the script accumulates these values over a user-defined "lookback length" to provide Cumulative Delta . This can help show longer-term directional volume bias.
Table: Spot vs. Perpetual Comparison
There is a toggle ("Show Spot vs Perpetual Table") that displays an on-chart table comparing volumes:
Buy Volume and Sell Volume for each aggregated category (Spot, Perp, and their sum).
Delta (the difference between Buy and Sell).
Percentage breakdowns of buy vs. sell portions.
This table only appears on the most recent bar and helps users quickly assess how Spot and Perpetual volumes compare, plus the overall total.
PVSRA Color Coding
A "PVSRA-style" color approach classifies each bar based on volume and candle range:
Climax Up (lime) or Climax Down (red) occurs if volume is extremely high relative to a simple moving average of volume and range.
Above-Average Up (blue) or Down (fuchsia) occurs if volume is moderately higher than average.
Otherwise, colors fall back to neutral up/down colors.
This allows you to spot potentially high-volume "climax" bars vs. bars with only moderate or typical volume levels.
Fractals and Divergences
The script detects certain fractal points on the aggregated volumes (sum of buy or sell volumes). It looks for a 5-bar pattern (with the current bar in the middle for top or bottom fractals).
When a fractal is confirmed on buy volume, the script checks if new higher price highs coincide with lower buy-volume peaks (or vice versa) to highlight regular or hidden divergences.
Similar logic is applied on the sell-volume side if new lower price lows occur alongside higher sell-volume troughs (or the opposite).
If enabled in the settings, lines and labels may appear on the chart to mark these divergence points.
"Delta Dot" Events
This script draws small circles above or below bars when the total delta changes magnitude relative to the previous bar by certain user-defined multipliers. It segregates "tiny," "small," "large," and "extra" expansions in bullish or bearish delta.
Bullish Dots : Appear above the bar when the new positive delta is multiple times bigger than the previous positive delta.
Bearish Dots : Appear below the bar in a similar fashion for negative delta.
These dots emphasize large or sudden shifts in buy/sell pressure from one bar to the next.
Delta MA and its Direction
A moving average is calculated on the total delta and optionally multiplied by a factor (in the code, by 4) to make it visually prominent. The user can pick from SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, or HMA as the smoothing technique.
Delta MA Direction : The script compares the current delta MA to a short SMA of itself to define whether it is rising or falling.
A color is assigned—blue if rising, orange if falling, gray if they're roughly equal.
This helps quickly visualize longer-term momentum in the net delta metric.
Divergences on the Delta MA
After computing the "Delta MA" line, the script detects pivot highs or lows on that line. If the price makes a new high but the Delta MA pivot is lower (and vice versa), it draws lines and small labels indicating potential divergence.
Bearish Divergence : Price makes a higher high, while the Delta MA pivot forms a lower high.
Bullish Divergence : Price makes a lower low, while the Delta MA pivot forms a higher low.
RSI + MFI Computation
The script also calculates a simplified form of RSI+MFI by comparing (close – open) / (high – low) * a multiplier , then smoothing it with a simple average. This is purely for an optional observational measure to see if the price action is leaning bullish or bearish in terms of these combined indicators.
EMA Overlay and Diamond Shapes
There are two standard EMAs (13 and 21). The script checks whether price is above or below these EMAs, in addition to other conditions (like changes in delta, volume, or RSI+MFI direction) to draw diamond shapes at the top or bottom of the chart:
Green Diamonds near the bottom if the conditions line up to suggest that the environment is more favorable for bullish pressure.
Red Diamonds near the top if the environment suggests more bearish pressure.
These diamonds come in two sizes:
Normal – More pronounced, typically plotted if RSI+MFI result is above/below zero.
Small – Plotted if RSI+MFI is on the other side of that threshold.
An optional "Hardcore Mode" adds special tiny diamonds under specific delta color/condition mismatches.
How to Interpret the Chart Elements
Line Plots of Buy and Sell Volumes : A positive line for buy volume, a negative line for sell volume, and a zero-line for reference. This provides at-a-glance perspective on how buy or sell volumes add up per bar.
Histogram "Total Delta" : A color-coded bar that quickly shows whether overall buy vs. sell volume is dominant. The color is governed by the PVSRA logic (e.g., potential climax or above-average conditions).
Volume Table (when enabled): Summarizes volumes in numeric and percentage form for Spot, Perp, and total categories on the last bar.
Delta Dots : Small circles highlighting abrupt changes in delta magnitude. Larger multiples indicate bigger jumps compared to the previous bar.
Fractals & Divergence Lines : Connect pivot points in buy/sell volume or in the Delta MA line with price highs/lows to indicate potential divergences.
Delta MA Plot : Smooth curve (scaled up x4) to reflect longer-term accumulation or distribution in the delta. Colored by whether the MA is above or below a short average of itself.
Diamonds : Appear when certain volume, price, RSI+MFI, and delta conditions converge. Green diamonds near the bottom typically coincide with bullish conditions, red diamonds near the top with bearish conditions.
Practical Usage Notes
Use the Spot vs. Perp breakdown to see if these two market segments differ significantly in their contributions to total volume. This can be informative when a certain type of market (futures vs. spot) might be "driving" price action.
The PVSRA color scheme highlights "climax" or "above-average" volume bars, which can sometimes appear around major reversals or breakouts.
Observing divergences in aggregated buy/sell volume (or in the Delta MA line) can provide additional context on whether certain price moves are backed by strong volume involvement.
The script's fractal divergences rely on short pivot detection. Signals will appear only after enough bars have passed for confirmation, so these are effectively "after-the-fact" notations to illustrate possible volume/price divergences.
The diamonds do not necessarily instruct any buy/sell action; rather, they mark conditions where multiple volume and momentum criteria line up in one direction.
Important Considerations
This script displays aggregated volumes from potentially multiple exchanges. Each exchange or pair might have different time zones, liquidity, or data availability, which can occasionally result in incomplete or zero values.
All references to "buy" or "sell" volume are approximate breakdowns based on candle structure. They are not absolute measures of real-time order flow.
Divergences and fractal points are provided strictly for analytical insight. They can repaint or shift if the fractal conditions were not fully confirmed in real time.
The color-coded lines, histograms, diamonds, and tables are strictly to guide analysis of volume fluctuations and do not claim to predict future price performance.
If you enable "Hardcore Mode," you will see additional diamond markers. This mode is mainly intended as an extra highlight of certain "contradictory" delta conditions.
Summary
The "ZenAlgo - Detector" script brings together a variety of volume-based analyses:
Aggregated volumes from multiple exchanges
A breakdown into Spot vs. Perpetual activity
Delta calculations, fractal divergences, and a specialized Delta Moving Average
Color-coded bars reflecting possible PVSRA concepts
A table to highlight numeric differences and percentages
Additional overlays (e.g., diamonds, RSI+MFI synergy, etc.)
In contrast to many free, single-exchange indicators, this script centralizes multiple exchange volumes in one place, making it easier to observe and compare volume flows across different market types (spot vs. perpetual). Users no longer need to rely on scattered tools or separate overlays to check volume divergences, fractals, or specialized MA calculations—everything is unified here. By carefully monitoring the table, Delta histogram, color-coded bars, divergence lines, and diamond markers, traders can more comprehensively evaluate how volume and price interact. Each plot is designed to showcase different aspects of volume flow—such as whether spot or derivatives markets dominate, if volume is skewed toward buying or selling, and if there are divergences between volume momentum and price movement.
All computations are displayed to help you carry out a more informed market analysis. It is strongly advised to combine these observations with other risk management or analytical methods, rather than relying on any single indicator alone.
Top-Down Trend and Key Levels with Swing Points//by antaryaami0
Overview
The “Top-Down Trend and Key Levels with Swing Points” indicator is a comprehensive tool designed to enhance your technical analysis by integrating multiple trading concepts into a single, easy-to-use script. It combines higher timeframe trend analysis, key price levels, swing point detection, and ranging market identification to provide a holistic view of market conditions. This indicator is particularly useful for traders who employ multi-timeframe analysis, support and resistance levels, and price action strategies.
Key Features
1. Higher Timeframe Trend Background Shading:

Understanding the Indicator’s Logic
1. Higher Timeframe Trend Analysis:
• The indicator retrieves the closing prices of a higher timeframe using the request.security() function.
• It compares the current higher timeframe close with the previous one to determine the trend direction.
2. Key Level Calculation:
• Previous Day High/Low: Calculated by tracking the highest and lowest prices of the previous trading day.
• Pre-Market High/Low: Calculated by monitoring price action during the pre-market session.
3. First 5-Minute Marker Logic:
• At 9:35 AM (end of the first 5 minutes after market open), the indicator evaluates whether the first 5-minute high is above or below the PMH.
• It then places the appropriate label (F5H or F5L) on the chart.
4. Swing Points Detection:
• The script uses ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow() functions to detect pivot points.
• It then determines the type of swing point based on comparisons with previous swings.
5. Ranging Market Detection:
• The indicator looks back over a specified number of bars to find the highest high and lowest low.
• It calculates the percentage difference between these two points.
• If the difference is below the set threshold, the market is considered to be ranging, and a box is drawn around the price action.
Limitations and Considerations
• Indicator Limitations:
• Maximum Boxes and Labels: Due to Pine Script limitations, there is a maximum number of boxes and labels that can be displayed simultaneously.
• Performance Impact: Adding multiple visual elements (boxes, labels, markers) can affect the performance of the script on lower-end devices or with large amounts of data.
• Market Conditions:
• False Signals: Like any technical tool, the indicator may produce false signals, especially during volatile or erratic market conditions.
• Not a Standalone Solution: This indicator should be used as part of a comprehensive trading strategy, including risk management and other forms of analysis.

Candle Average PriceOverview
The Candle Average Price indicator is a custom tool designed to help traders identify key price levels by calculating and displaying the average price of recent candles on your TradingView chart. This indicator computes the average price based on a user-defined percentage of each candle's range over a specified number of candles. It then plots a horizontal line representing this average, covering only the last N candles as defined by you.
Key Features
Customizable Number of Candles: Define how many past candles to include in the average calculation.
Adjustable Percentage Level: Choose any percentage of each candle's range (from low to high) to calculate the price level.
Dynamic Horizontal Line: The indicator plots a horizontal line representing the calculated average, updating with each new bar and covering only the specified number of candles.
How It Works
Price at Specified Percentage:
For each candle, the indicator calculates a price level at your chosen percentage within the candle's range.
Formula: Price = Low + (Percentage Level / 100) * (High - Low)
Average Price Calculation:
It computes the average of these price levels over the last N candles.
Formula: Average Price = Sum of Price Levels over N Candles / N
Horizontal Line Plotting:
A horizontal line is drawn at the calculated average price level.
The line spans from N candles ago to the current candle, covering exactly the number of candles specified.
Input Parameters
Number of Candles (length):
Description: The number of recent candles over which the average is calculated.
Default Value: 4
Range: 1 to any positive integer.
Usage: Adjust this to include more or fewer candles in the calculation. A higher number smooths the average, while a lower number makes it more responsive to recent price changes.
Percentage Level (%):
Description: The percentage within each candle's range to calculate the price level.
Default Value: 50%
Range: 0% (candle low) to 100% (candle high).
Usage: Modify this to focus on different parts of each candle:
0%: Uses the low of each candle.
50%: Uses the midpoint of each candle.
100%: Uses the high of each candle.
Custom Percentage: Any value between 0% and 100% to target specific levels.
How to Use the Indicator
Adding the Indicator to Your Chart:
Open the TradingView chart of your preferred financial instrument.
Click on Indicators at the top of the chart.
Select Invite-Only Scripts if you've saved the script there, or use the Pine Editor to paste and apply the script.

After adding the indicator, click on the gear icon ⚙️ next to its name to open settings.
Adjust the Number of Candles (length) to your desired period.
Set the Percentage Level (%) (percentage) to the specific level within each candle's range you want to analyze.
Interpreting the Horizontal Line:
The horizontal line represents the average price calculated based on your inputs.
It updates with each new bar, always reflecting the most recent data over the specified number of candles.
The line only spans the last N candles, providing a focused view of recent price action.
Practical Applications
Identifying Support and Resistance Levels:
The average price line can act as a dynamic support or resistance level.
Traders can watch for price reactions around this line to make trading decisions.
Trend Analysis:
Observing how the price interacts with the average line can provide insights into the current trend's strength and potential reversals.
Entry and Exit Signals:
Use the line as a reference point for setting stop-loss orders or taking profits.
Combine it with other indicators for more robust trading signals.
In highly volatile markets, consider increasing the number of candles to avoid false signals.
Limitations and Considerations
Not a Standalone Tool:
This indicator should not be used in isolation for making trading decisions. Always consider additional analysis.

Happy Trading!
Key Levels Suite - By LeviathanThis is a comprehensive script, designed to display over 100 key price levels across multiple dimensions, including volume profile levels, HTF levels, VWAPs, SMAs/EMAs, market session levels, day of week levels and more. The indicator offers high flexibility in features, settings and visual appearance.
● The script organizes levels into six main categories:
Higher Timeframe (HTF) Levels
- Current and/or previous period: Open, High, Low, and Midpoint for Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly timeframes (eg. levels for current weekly high/low and previous weekly high/low).
- These levels provide a clear structure for identifying key support and resistance zones. Traders often use HTF levels to anticipate price reactions, such as bounces or rejections, at major highs and lows. For example, a price nearing the weekly high could signal an area of resistance.
VWAP Levels
- Current and/or previous period: VWAP and upper/lower standard deviations for Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly timeframes (eg. levels for current daily VWAP and previous weekly VWAP).
- VWAP levels give traders insight into whether the current price is above or below the fair market value for a given period. It’s often used as a reference point for trend direction or S/R. If the price remains above VWAP, the trend may be seen as bullish, while breaks below VWAP can suggest a shift toward bearish sentiment. Standard deviations help identify areas where the price may be overextended, offering opportunities for mean reversion trades.
Moving Average Levels
- EMA and SMA for three customizable lengths (eg. levels for 200 EMA, 50 EMA and 100 SMA).
- These levels act as dynamic support and resistance lines that adjust with price movement. Traders use them to confirm trend direction and watch for reactions around these levels, particularly in trending markets. For example, when the price pulls back to a 200 EMA, it could present an opportunity to enter a trade in line with the prevailing trend.
Volume Profile Levels
- Current and previous: Point of Control (POC), Value Area High (VAH), and Value Area Low (VAL) for Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly timeframes (eg. levels for current day POC and previous day POC).
- Volume Profile levels highlight price areas where significant trading occurred. The POC indicates the price where the most volume was traded and can act as a strong magnet for price. VAH and VAL mark the boundaries of value areas, making them excellent spots for breakout or mean reversion trades. Traders look for price reactions around these zones to either join or fade moves.
Market Session Levels
- Current and previous: Open, high, low, and midpoint for three user-defined sessions, with default being Tokyo, London, and New York (eg. levels for current New York session open and previous New York session high and low).
- Session levels allow traders to track how price behaves across different global market sessions. For instance, the New York open often brings increased liquidity and volatility. Traders often use these levels to anticipate sharp moves or continuations, especially after session highs and lows are broken, signaling shifts in market momentum.
Day of Week Levels
- Open, high, low, and midpoint for Monday through Sunday (eg. levels for Monday's high and low and Tuesday open).
- These levels help traders identify recurring intraday or intraweek price behaviors. For example, highs or lows established earlier in the week can serve as benchmarks for breakouts or retracements later on. Monday’s open or Friday’s high/low often reflect market sentiment going into or out of the weekend, providing valuable clues for planning trades.
● About the script
I published this script because it was heavily requested by my Tradingview followers who wanted a clean and feature-rich indicator that can display various levels they use in their analysis. The indicator can display levels that are not available in other similar public scripts and makes sure to calculate and load calculation-intensive levels (like volume profile levels, higher timeframe vwap levels, etc) as fast and efficiently as possible. It is one of the only scripts I've published that is not open source. The code is protected because it includes some proprietary calculations (eg: for POC/VAH/VAL), that I don't wish to open source, but I still want to publish a heavily requested script in a public and free format.
● How to use the script
1. Add the script to your chart
Start by adding the script to your chart like any other indicator.
2. Open the indicator settings
Click the settings icon to access all customization options.
3. Select which level groups to display
In the "Controls" section, choose which groups of levels (HTF, VWAP, Moving Averages, etc.) you want displayed. This allows you to quickly toggle between different sets of levels depending on your analysis needs, without overcrowding the chart.
4. Adjust group-specific settings
Scroll down to access detailed settings for each group. For any group, you can choose:
- The relevant time parameter (e.g., Daily, Weekly, Monthly, etc for HTF/VWAP/Volume Profile levels, length for Moving Average levels, day for Day of Week Levels, etc).
- Specific levels to display (e.g., Open/High/Low/Midpoint for HTF, VWAP, Day of Week, Session levels and POC/VAH/VAL for Volume Profile levels).
- For applicable groups, you can also toggle previous period levels by selecting them from the row starting with the "↳" icon.
5. Customize visual appearance
In the "Appearance" section, you have full control over how the levels and labels look. You can:
- Choose what details appear in the labels (e.g., level name, price, or percentage distance from current price).
- Pick from different line types, line style (solid, dashed, dotted), adjust line width, and manage the length of the lines using "Offset Right" and "Offset Left" settings.
- Modify font, label size, and color options. If multiple levels overlap at the same price, use the “Merge Levels” option to combine them into one, reducing visual clutter.
6. Customize level names to your preference
In the "Labels" section, you can rename any parameter to match your preferred abbreviations (e.g., change “Weekly Open” to “wO” or any other shorthand that works for you).
● Key Features:
- Display various different important levels, all in one indicator
- Seamless control of which group of levels / specific level to display
- Choose from various line and label styles to display levels.
- Labels can show the level's title (customizable abbreviations), price, and percentage distance from the current price.
- Merge nearby levels to reduce chart clutter, either for identical levels or those within a user-defined percentage range.
- Fully customizable visual appearance of levels to suit individual preferences.
Smart Money Concepts (SMC)Introductions:
Before explaining the functions of this indicator to you, we need to talk about what theoretical knowledge we need to have. Many different price approaches have been developed over the decades with different analysis methods and are still evolving. Some theories used in classical trend analysis methods are interpreted or blended with different perspectives over time and we try to make more successful analyses by having a consistent market reading strategy. While analyzing the classical market structure with the price action method, some issues that are missing and do not fit into place are brought to light with a higher level analysis method known as the smart money concept.
As a result of the research and developments we have done on this subject from many different sources for a long time, I personally think that the most efficient and logical concept is the smart money concept. Of course, no matter which method we use, acting within a risk management and remaining strictly loyal to our conditions should be our first priority so that we can talk about sustainable success in the market. In light of all this, we decided to make an indicator of this concept, which we believe is consistent.
In order to analyze the market structure correctly, we must first draw fractal structures and interpret them correctly. Because the market consists of fractal structures. Regardless of the technique, if we cannot draw fractals correctly or if we make an incorrect interpretation while determining them, our market structure analysis may also be incorrect.
Instead of manually identifying fractal structures, script writers often choose the following method for ease of use; They leave the number of candles to the user's choice, detect the highest and lowest points among x number of candles, and draw fractal structures accordingly, but in fact this is not an accurate detection method. In the visual I have prepared below, you can see how the correct fractal structures should be drawn. Fractal structures should be made based on the previous and next candle levels, not from a certain group of candles.
To identify market structures, we make an interpretation based on these fractal movements.
While classic market structure analysis with traditional price action follows a relatively simpler path as shown in the example below, this situation is a bit more detailed in the smart money concepts.
To explain the situation in the smart money concept in an easily understandable way, it is as follows; imagine an uptrend that progresses by creating levels HH and HL, when the price creates a new HL, we call this point as inducement and we move this level up as each new HL is formed. When drawing structures in this way, when the price falls below the inducement level, the peak is confirmed. To explain it with a different approach, the price must first get liquidity from these last rising bottoms in order to make a break of structure (BOS). The break of structure occurs when the price passes the approved peak. When BOS occurs, the lowest point between this point and the previous peak is defined as the Swing Low and this is the level that needs to be protected in uptrend. When BOS occurs, the last HL point that made this BOS is also defined as inducement and it continues to move as new HL is formed until the new peak is confirmed. If the price somehow "closes" below the Swing Low point that needs to be protected, CHOCH (change of character) has occurred and the trend direction has changed. After CHOCH, we start applying the same logic for the downtrend, the last LH peak formed after is defined as inducement and as the fractal structure continues downward, this level is also carried as the inducement level until the Swing Low level is determined. An important note is; In order for BOS and CHOCH to be valid, "a closing must definitely occur". If it remains in the form of a wick, we call it a liquidity sweep and the end point of this wick is updated as the point where we need to look for a closing in order to be able to say that the BOS or CHOCH level is determined. By the way, We call these liquidity sweep points as "x" in the indicator.
It may be easier to explain this topic with a few sample images that I have shared below.
The thing to consider in the smart money concept is that if you are going to take a long trade in an uptrend, you should wait for the price to fall below the inducement level or if you are going to take a short trade in a downtrend, you should wait for the price to rise above the inducement level and only then look for suitable structures, order flows, order blocks, price gaps and other structures before this are considered traps in this concept. I have some strategies that I personally apply, but since these are my personal preferences, I do not find it right to share them here in order not to affect your opinions, but I am basically careful to act as I stated above.
While preparing this script, we paid attention to the fact that it can be interpreted with a real human eye, provides ease at the speed of machine language and can work extremely flawlessly.
From the first moment we started preparing the script, we went through a long and seriously laborious preparation process that lasted months until now, which we happily share.
We brought this code to life by putting on the table almost everything the user may want in terms of both flawlessly fulfilling the conditions specified by the concept and convenience.
If we touch on the function of the code in order, our code finds the following;
It perfectly identifies the fractals that form the basis of the market structure, within the framework of the rules that I mentioned above, we taught to the script.
According to smart money concepts, as I explained in detail above, it provides great convenience in this regard by skillfully identifying the direction of the market in the time period you are in, rather than traditional methods.
In addition to identifying the direction of the market, it also detects the direction changes taking place in the internal structure. Indicator tries to detect even the slightest direction changes by making a stricter interpretation while determining the trend and bottom-top points in the internal structure. Theoretically, it determines the top point in a downward fractal breakout, and marks the bottom point in an upward fractal breakout.
In this context, it also uniquely identifies the candle flow direction and we can observe it on the table. I explained this issue in the first image about fractal determination, you can read that part again.
When you identify swing structures correctly, you will also determine the area you need to focus on, and we have also included this in the script.
Another one of our favorite features on the chart is that it can show active swing areas live by following the BOS, CHOCH and Inducement lines. So, I believe that this gives it a more professional appearance.
In the light of all these functions, it provides great ease of use while presenting data on the direction of the market in a table not only in the current time frame but also in 6 different time frames that the user can choose according to his/her preference, including seconds timeframes (1 sec., 5 sec., 15 sec., 30 sec. etc.)
In order to speed up the user, it instantly informs the selected parity and all structural changes (Bos, Choch, Inducement, Liquidity Sweeps etc.) that occur on the market structure of this timeframe by setting a single alarm.
In the settings window, you will find the following settings that we have personalized for you:
Main Options;
Fractal Lines box: You can check this box to see whether the fractals that form the basic interpretation structure of the indicator are visible or not.
Swing Lines box: You can use this box to turn on or off the Bos, Choch, Inducement and Liquidity Sweeps lines, which are the main elements of the market structure.

Asian Range IndicatorIndicator Name:
Asian Range Indicator
Description:
This TradingView indicator is designed to accurately detect the price range during the Asian session, based on our trading strategy. This range is crucial for planning trades in the European and American sessions. Using advanced algorithms, the indicator automatically identifies and plots the highs and lows within the Asian session period, highlighting them on the chart with shaded areas for clear visualization. This helps traders anticipate breakouts and set more precise entry and exit levels.
How to Use the Indicator:
Add the indicator to your TradingView chart.
Observe the shaded areas representing the Asian range.
Use these levels to plan your trades during the European and American sessions.
Combine with other technical indicators to confirm your trading decisions.
Chart:
The chart published with this script is clean and easy to understand, clearly showing the Asian range highlighted with shaded areas. No other scripts are included, ensuring the indicator's output is easily identifiable. The shaded areas contribute to the visual understanding of the Asian range, helping traders effectively use the script.
Wave LineWave Line is a chart type obtained by plotting the High and Low values in each time interval according to their sequential order. This method produces a continuous line rather than bars, which is beneficial for analyzing changes within each interval rather than focusing on the price range and open/close values. E.g for Wave Analysis.
How to use:
1. Adjust the interval unit and multiplier for the main timeframe.
2. Ideally, select a lower timeframe on your chart, approximately 5 times smaller than the one specified for the script.
3. Lower Timeframe is the timeframe which will be the scripts reference when the high and low of the main timeframe align on a single bar of the opened chart. This timeframe may also be 5-10 times smaller than the main timeframe. It is important to note that this should not be excessively smaller as the script may fail in retrieving data. An alternative method is included to estimate the order if it is not clear in the fetched data.
4. Set a preferred value for Monowave Length, indicating the number of bars a monowave will cover horizontally. Set the value to be half of the Interval Multiplier for the Wave Line to align with the bar chart. However if the multiplier is an odd number, perfect alignment may not be achieved.
5. Ensure that the product of Max Polyline Segments and Monowave length does not exceed 5000, and adjust the value for Max Polyline Segments accordingly.
Optimal Buy Day (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Optimal Buy Day (Zeiierman) indicator identifies optimal buying days based on historical price data, starting from a user-defined year. It simulates investing a fixed initial capital and making regular monthly contributions. The unique aspect of this indicator involves comparing systematic investment on specific days of the month against a randomized buying day each month, aiming to analyze which method might yield more shares or a better average price over time. By visualizing the potential outcomes of systematic versus randomized buying, traders can better understand the impact of market timing and how regular investments might accumulate over time.
These statistics are pivotal for traders and investors using the script to analyze historical performance and strategize future investments. By understanding which days offered more shares for their money or lower average prices, investors can tailor their buying strategies to potentially enhance returns.
█ Key Statistics
⚪ Shares
Definition: Represents the total number of shares acquired on a particular day of the month across the entire simulation period.
How It Works: The script calculates how many shares can be bought each day, given the available capital or monthly contribution. This calculation takes into account the day's opening price and accumulates the total shares bought on that day over the simulation period.
Interpretation: A higher number of shares indicates that the day consistently offered better buying opportunities, allowing the investor to acquire more shares for the same amount of money. This metric is crucial for understanding which days historically provided more value.
⚪ AVG Price
Definition: The average price paid per share on a particular day of the month, averaged over the simulation period.
How It Works: Each time shares are bought, the script calculates the average price per share, factoring in the new shares purchased at the current price. This average evolves over time as more shares are bought at varying prices.
Interpretation: The average price gives insight into the cost efficiency of buying shares on specific days. A lower average price suggests that buying on that day has historically led to better pricing, making it a potentially more attractive investment strategy.
⚪ Buys
Definition: The total number of transactions or buys executed on a particular day of the month throughout the simulation.
How It Works: This metric increments each time shares are bought on a specific day, providing a count of all buying actions taken.
Interpretation: The number of buys indicates the frequency of investment opportunities. A higher count could mean more consistent opportunities for investment, but it's important to consider this in conjunction with the average price and the total shares acquired to assess overall strategy effectiveness.
⚪ Most Shares
Definition: Identifies the day of the month on which the highest number of shares were bought, highlighting the specific day and the total shares acquired.
How It Works: After simulating purchases across all days of the month, the script identifies which day resulted in the highest total number of shares bought.
Interpretation: This metric points out the most opportune day for volume buying. It suggests that historically, this day provided conditions that allowed for maximizing the quantity of shares purchased, potentially due to lower prices or other factors.
⚪ Best Price
Definition: Highlights the day of the month that offered the lowest average price per share, indicating both the day and the price.
How It Works: The script calculates the average price per share for each day and identifies the day with the lowest average.
Interpretation: This metric is key for investors looking to minimize costs. The best price day suggests that historically, buying on this day led to acquiring shares at a more favorable average price, potentially maximizing long-term investment returns.
⚪ Randomized Shares
Definition: This metric represents the total number of shares acquired on a randomly selected day of the month, simulated across the entire period.
How It Works: At the beginning of each month within the simulation, the script selects a random day when the market is open and calculates how many shares can be purchased with the available capital or monthly contribution at that day's opening price. This process is repeated each month, and the total number of shares acquired through these random purchases is tallied.
Interpretation: Randomized shares offer a comparison point to systematic buying strategies. By comparing the total shares acquired through random selection against those bought on the best or worst days, investors can gauge the impact of timing and market fluctuations on their investment strategy. A higher total in randomized shares might indicate that over the long term, the specific days chosen for investment might matter less than consistent market participation. Conversely, if systematic strategies yield significantly more shares, it suggests that timing could indeed play a crucial role in maximizing investment returns.
⚪ Randomized Price
Definition: The average price paid per share for the shares acquired on the randomly selected days throughout the simulation period.
How It Works: Each time shares are bought on a randomly chosen day, the script calculates the average price paid for all shares bought through this randomized strategy. This average price is updated as the simulation progresses, reflecting the cost efficiency of random buying decisions.
Interpretation: The randomized price metric helps investors understand the cost implications of a non-systematic, random investment approach. Comparing this average price to those achieved through more deliberate, systematic strategies can reveal whether consistent investment timing strategies outperform random investment actions in terms of cost efficiency. A lower randomized price suggests that random buying might not necessarily result in higher costs, while a higher average price indicates that systematic strategies might provide better control over investment costs.
█ How to Use
Traders can use this tool to analyze historical data and simulate different investment strategies. By inputting their initial capital, regular contribution amount, and start year, they can visually assess which days might have been more advantageous for buying, based on historical price actions. This can inform future investment decisions, especially for those employing dollar-cost averaging strategies or looking to optimize entry points.
█ Settings
StartYear: This setting allows the user to specify the starting year for the investment simulation. Changing this value will either extend or shorten the period over which the simulation is run. If a user increases the value, the simulation begins later and covers a shorter historical period; decreasing the value starts the simulation earlier, encompassing a longer time frame.
Capital: Determines the initial amount of capital with which the simulation begins. Increasing this value simulates starting with more capital, which can affect the number of shares that can be initially bought. Decreasing this value simulates starting with less capital.
Contribution: Sets the monthly financial contribution added to the investment within the simulation. A higher contribution increases the investment each month and could lead to more shares being purchased over time. Lowering the contribution decreases the monthly investment amount.
