Goldbach Take Profits🧠 Goldbach BuySell With TP Levels (Latest)
Precision meets structure. This algorithmic tool by DoktorAlgo combines the power of the Goldbach 243/729 BuySell model with dynamic Take Profit (TP) zones. Identify high-probability entries using smart confluence signals and confidently target up to four strategic TP levels. Built for Smart Money, price action, and algo traders, this script works best on NAS100 and other trending indices, especially when used across 1m–30m charts. Use with care — avoid chasing signals mid-range or after TPs are hit.
📊 What Asset Classes Can It Be Used On?
✅ Best Fit:
NASDAQ 100 (NAS100 / US100) — This is the primary tested asset where structure aligns with the 243/729 grid.
🟡 Also Works On:
SPX / S&P 500
US30 / Dow Jones
Crypto (BTC, ETH) with adjusted volatility scaling
Forex pairs (EURUSD, GBPUSD) — but needs backtesting
🧪 Every market moves in a structure — but NAS100 is one of the cleanest to observe Goldbach behavior.
👤 What Kind of Traders is It For?
This method suits:
Trader Type Reason
🧠 Smart Money/ICT-style Traders The 243/729 grid aligns with concepts like OBs, LV, RB, FV.
🕵️♂️ Intraday Snipers You can catch 1M-5M scalps using higher TF signals.
📆 Swing Traders Use TP1–TP4 as short/medium targets for a daily bias.
⚖️ Disciplined Traders Works best if you wait for signals + TP alignment.
⚠️ What Should You Be Careful About?
Don’t Trade Every Signal
❗ Signals are not meant to be taken blindly.
They only work if price hasn’t hit the targets yet and aligns with the session and trend.
TP Already Hit = Late Trade
🚫 If TP3/TP4 is already tagged — it’s too late. Avoid entering.
🔄 Wait for a new PO3 cycle (next 243/729 range to form).
Overtrading
The method thrives on waiting — some days give zero signals.
Forcing entries because “it’s close enough” leads to losses.
Risk-to-Reward Discipline
Each TP level is mapped — you know your potential gain.
Always risk small vs. reward. E.g., aim for 1:2 or 1:3 RR toward TP3 or TP4.
✅ Best Practices
Task Guidance
Confirm Trend Use 1H/30M to confirm direction with TP levels.
Entry Drop to 3M or 1M to sniper entry after TP confirms.
Session Timing London and New York sessions are most accurate.
Best Signals When both 243 & 729 align, and TP1–TP4 are untouched.
Avoid Flat sessions, middle-of-PO3 ranges, or counter-trend trades.
🔑 Final Tips
The Goldbach system is like a mathematical GPS — if you learn where price is starting, going, and ending, you don’t need to guess.
Don’t just look for signals. Look for clear entries with clean TP targets above or below.
Patience + structure = consistency.
📌 What is the 729/243 TP Indicator?
The Goldbach TP Indicator uses two special PO3 numbers (729 and 243) to calculate structured Take Profit (TP) levels on your chart.
PO3 (Price Order of 3) is a mathematical division system used to understand where price may react, reverse, or target.
This tool creates 4 main take profit levels based on that math, labeled:
TP: FV – Fair Value (conservative)
TP: MB – Midpoint Base (moderate)
TP: LV – Liquidity Void (strong target)
TP: OB – Order Block (high/low reversal area)
🟢 How to Use It if You Trade the 243 and 729 Signals
If you're a user of:
✅ “Goldbach 243 BuySell Signal” → gives quick signals based on smaller ranges
✅ “Goldbach Algo 2 Spec Signal (729)” → gives slower, more confirmed trades
💡 You should combine those two with the TP Indicator to confirm:
Where price is heading
If there is enough room to enter the trade
If TP levels are already hit (then avoid!)
🟢 How to Use the Goldbach TP Levels + 243/729 Signals
🔢 PO3 Settings:
243 = Shorter-term (internal)
729 = Higher timeframe (external)
These act like price grids. Signals (buy/sell) fire when price reacts to precise zones based on these grids — a signature of precision-based algorithmic logic.
📈 What Do the TP Levels Mean?
Each TP level is a mathematical projection of where price might pause, reverse, or take liquidity:
Label Meaning Use Case
TP: FV Fair Value Conservative exit / scalping
TP: MB Midpoint Base Medium exit / reaction zone
TP: LV Liquidity Void Strong liquidity zone
TP: OB Order Block Premium area / top reversal
📈 When to BUY or SELL Based on TP Levels
✅ BUY when all TP levels (TP1–TP4) are ABOVE you
This means:
You’re in a discount zone (below value)
Price has room to move up to multiple take-profits
These TP levels become targets after entry
Ideal entry:
Signal appears (e.g. 243 + 729 confluence)
TP: FV, MB, LV, OB all above current price
🔻 SELL when all TP levels (TP1–TP4) are BELOW you
This means:
You’re in a premium zone (above value)
Price is likely to revert back downward
TP levels show fall-through targets
Ideal entry:
Bearish signal fires
All TP levels below you = clear downward runway
🚦How to Use TP Levels with Signals
🟢 Buy Example:
Only take Buy signals if all 4 TP levels are above your entry.
That means the market has space to go up.
Avoid buying if price is already near TP3 or TP4 (high risk / late).
🔴 Sell Example:
Only take Sell signals if all TP levels are below you.
That means downside space is available.
Avoid entering when TPs are already reached.
🕒 Best Timeframes to Use
Purpose Recommended Timeframe
Confirm Bias 1H, 30M
Spot Signals 15M, 5M
Snipe Entry 3M, 1M
⏰ Which Timeframes Work Best?
Recommended:
🔹 30m / 1H → Best for identifying confluence signals
🔹 5m / 3m / 1m → Best for entry timing (sniping) after higher timeframe signal shows
Example: See signal on 30m → Zoom to 5m → Enter during minor pullback
🎯 Understanding the TP Levels (from OB to FV)
Each TP is a % offset from the PO3 range:
TP1 (FV - Blue) = 0.17 (Fair Value)
TP2 (MB - Red) = 0.29 (Mid Block)
TP3 (LV - Orange) = 0.71 (Liquidity Void)
TP4 (OB - Green) = 0.89 (Order Block Exit)
More TP levels = More momentum / trend clarity
🔁 Backtesting & Session Timing
🧪 Why Backtest?
See how signals behave in your asset
Confirm average move to each TP
Fine-tune entry/exit time
🕰 When to Expect Best Signals
London Open (~3AM–6AM EST)
New York Open (~8AM–11AM EST)
These windows = high volatility = more signals and reliable movement to TP targets.
🔍 How to Validate a Signal (Checklist)
✅ Signal from 243 and 729 both align (confluence).
✅ TP levels have not been hit yet.
✅ Signal appears during London or New York sessions.
✅ You have room to reach TP3 or TP4.
✅ Price is coming from premium or discount zone, not middle.
❌ Skip if price is in the middle or sideways, or TPs are exhausted.
🧠 Why It’s So Important
Using just buy/sell signals alone is like guessing. But adding the TP indicator tells you:
“Is it too late to enter?”
“Where could price logically go next?”
“How far can I hold?”
“Is this a good R:R setup?”
The TP indicator gives your trades a destination and helps you avoid false entries.
✅ Summary
Use TP Indicator + 243 + 729 together.
Only enter if price hasn’t already hit the target zones.
Target TP1 to TP4 based on risk.
Align entries with session timing.
Use 15M/5M to confirm, 1M/3M to enter.
This strategy gives you a clear, logical, and mathematically structured trading system.
What Are the Indicators?
243 Goldbach BuySell Signal – Detects short-term price reactions using a smaller PO3 (Price Order of 3) range. More frequent signals.
729 Goldbach BuySell Signal – Detects broader market reactions using a larger PO3 range. Less frequent, more reliable.
Goldbach Take Profits (TP Levels) – Draws logical TP targets using PO3 math so you can plan exits based on higher-probability levels.
✅ How to Use the Buy/Sell Signals
Confirmed Entry: Only consider a buy or sell when both 243 and 729 signals align. These are confluence entries.
Solo Entry: If only one of them signals, be cautious. These can be early or false entries.
Session Awareness: Focus on London and New York session entries for higher accuracy.
Timeframes: Best used on:
1–5 min for entries
15–30 min for signal confirmation
1H+ for bias and context
🎯 How to Use the TP Levels
These levels (TP: OB, LV, MB, FV) show potential price targets.
Buy Example: Only buy if most TP levels are above your entry — this means price has space to move up.
Sell Example: Only sell if most TP levels are below you — this signals room to drop.
TP Structure:
TP1 = Minor
TP4 = Major reversal/premium level
Target 1–2 for quick trades, 3–4 for swings
🧠 Summary:
Criteria Action
All TP levels above Look for BUY
All TP levels below Look for SELL
Signal on 30m/1H Snipe entry on 1m–5m
Confluence: 243 + 729 Stronger, more reliable entry
Entry on session open More momentum & TP hits
TP1–TP4 alignment Guides trade management/exit

Smart Money Flow Index GoldenCross+DeathCross [GCDC]
SMART MONEY FLOW INDEX ( SMFI-GCDC )
THE MAIN OBJECTIVE
This SMFI provides information on the current strength conditions of banker/smart money flows to guide market movements.
As we know, traders need to analyze the strengths and weaknesses of the current market based on the average price and dominance percentage in each transaction that has occurred. This situation will affect the subsequent price movements. So, we need to identify the strengths of buyers and sellers (demand and supply) and their habits to see the impact on the near term and the next trend.
THE FUNCTION OF OBSERVATION & SIGNAL;
Therefore, SMFI-GCDC is one way of analyzing the current strengths and weaknesses of a market as an assessment for a potential domination. The key is following the same trend as the habits of bankers/smart money.
Banker flow is below the midline > weak, bearish, downward trend.
Banker flow is above the midline > strong, bullish, move-up trend, dominated by bankers.
The observations and signals used include two main functions ; the death cross & golden cross signals by moving average(MA), and the banker inflow rate.
HOW TO USE
Signal display;
1.Red plot > shows the strength of banker inflows into a market. It is indicated by a thicker red
plot.
2.Midline signal > the horizontal circles, the middle levels of banker inflows, at the value level
of 50/100.
3.Banker Moving Average > the white plot, average price movement condition.
4.Blue triangle > goldencross , the Moving Average cross-over the Midline, the increasing
dominance of bankers flow, potential of move-up.
5.Orange triangle > deathcross , the Moving Average cross-down the Midline, the increasing
dominance of bankers flow, the potential of downward.
6.Green cross > oversold area, the potential of reversal.
7.Yellow cross > overbought area, the potential of reversal.
Banker's trend below 50
= market is weakening/prices are falling
Banker's trend above 50
= market strengthening/prices rising
observe the supply/demand zone to identify the exact potential

🧠 What is this indicator?
Goldbach The 243 Algo2 Buy and Sell Signal Tracker is a precision tool that detects potential buy and sell opportunities using Goldbach range mathematics and PO3 (Power of 3) logic. It highlights where price is likely reacting to engineered liquidity levels inside structured dealing ranges — specifically the 243-unit Goldbach range.
How it works
The indicator calculates Goldbach dealing ranges based on a PO3 range of 243, a common fractal range observed in algorithmic market behavior.
It defines key manipulation levels such as:
RB (Reaccumulation Band),
OB (Order Block),
FV (Fair Value),
and more.
A BUY signal is printed when price enters the lower manipulation zone, reacts, and confirms bullish intent.
A SELL signal appears in the upper manipulation zone upon bearish confirmation.
How to use it
Timeframes: Best used on 1min to 1h charts.
Scalpers can use 1–5min,
Day traders: 15m–30m,
Swing traders: 1h+ for broader confirmation.
Use the default setting (PO3 = 243).
BUY / SELL labels (orange/purple) show the core signals.
Settings Tab:
You can toggle shaded zones, Goldbach lines, and switch between label or circle display.
Enjoy ! 💯

Entropy Chart Analysis [PhenLabs]📊 Entropy Chart analysis -
Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
The Entropy Chart indicator analysis applies Approximate Entropy (ApEn) to identify zones of potential support and resistance on your price chart. It is designed to locate changes in the market’s predictability, with a focus on zones near significant psychological price levels (e.g., multiples of 50). By quantifying entropy, the indicator aims to identify zones where price action might stabilize (potential support) or become randomized (potential resistance).
This tool automates the visualization of these key areas for traders, which may have the effect of revealing reversal levels or consolidation zones that would be hard to discern through traditional means. It also filters the signals by proximity to key levels in an attempt to reduce noise and highlight higher-probability setups. These dynamic zones adapt to changing market conditions by stretching, merging, and expiring based on user-inputted rules.
🚀 Points of Innovation
Combines Approximate Entropy (ApEn) calculation with price action near significant levels.
Filters zone signals based on proximity (in ticks) to predefined significant price levels (multiples of 50).
Dynamically merges overlapping or nearby zones to consolidate signals and reduce chart clutter.
Uses ApEn crossovers relative to its moving average as the core trigger mechanism.
Provides distinct visual coloring for bullish, bearish, and merged (mixed-signal) zones.
Offers comprehensive customization for entropy calculation, zone sensitivity, level filtering, and visual appearance.
🔧 Core Components
Approximate Entropy (ApEn) Calculation : Measures the regularity or randomness of price fluctuations over a specified window. Low ApEn suggests predictability, while high ApEn suggests randomness.
Zone Trigger Logic : Creates potential support zones when ApEn crosses below its average (indicating increasing predictability) and potential resistance zones when it crosses above (indicating increasing randomness).
Significant Level Filter : Validates zone triggers only if they occur within a user-defined tick distance from significant price levels (multiples of 50).
Dynamic Zone Management : Automatically creates, extends, merges nearby zones based on tick distance, and removes the oldest zones to maintain a maximum limit.
Zone Visualization : Draws and updates colored boxes on the chart to represent active support, resistance, or mixed zones.
🔥 Key Features
Entropy-Based S/R Detection : Uses ApEn to identify potential support (low entropy) and resistance (high entropy) areas.
Significant Level Filtering : Enhances signal quality by focusing on entropy changes near key psychological price points.
Automatic Zone Drawing & Merging : Visualizes zones dynamically, merging close signals for clearer interpretation.
Highly Customizable : Allows traders to adjust parameters for ApEn calculation, zone detection thresholds, level filter sensitivity, merging distance, and visual styles.
Integrated Alerts : Provides built-in alert conditions for the formation of new bullish or bearish zones near significant levels.
Clear Visual Output : Uses distinct, customizable colors for buy (support), sell (resistance), and mixed (merged) zones.
🎨 Visualization
Buy Zones : Represented by greenish boxes (default: #26a69a), indicating potential support areas formed during low entropy periods near significant levels.
Sell Zones : Represented by reddish boxes (default: #ef5350), indicating potential resistance areas formed during high entropy periods near significant levels.
Mixed Zones : Represented by bluish/purple boxes (default: #8894ff), formed when a buy zone and a sell zone merge, indicating areas of potential consolidation or conflict.
Dynamic Extension : Active zones are automatically extended to the right with each new bar.
📖 Usage Guidelines
Calculation Parameters
Window Length
Default: 15
Range: 10-100
Description: Lookback period for ApEn calculation. Shorter lengths are more responsive; longer lengths are smoother.
Embedding Dimension (m)
Default: 2

Description: Maximum allowed distance (in ticks) from a significant level (multiple of 50) for a zone trigger to be valid.
Visual Settings
Buy Zone Color : Default: color.new(#26a69a, 83). Sets the fill color for support zones.
Sell Zone Color : Default: color.new(#ef5350, 83). Sets the fill color for resistance zones.
Mixed Zone Color : Default: color.new(#8894ff, 83). Sets the fill color for merged zones.
Buy Border Color : Default: #26a69a. Sets the border color for support zones.
Sell Border Color : Default: #ef5350. Sets the border color for resistance zones.
Mixed Border Color : Default: color.new(#a288ff, 50). Sets the border color for mixed zones.
Border Width : Default: 1, Range: 1-3. Sets the thickness of zone borders.
✅ Best Use Cases
Identifying potential support/resistance near significant psychological price levels (e.g., $50, $100 increments).
Detecting potential market turning points or consolidation zones based on shifts in price predictability.
Filtering entries or exits by confirming signals occurring near significant levels identified by the indicator.
Adding context to other technical analysis approaches by highlighting entropy-derived zones.
⚠️ Limitations
Parameter Dependency : Indicator performance is sensitive to parameter settings ( Window Length , Tolerance , Zone Threshold , Max Ticks Distance ), which may need optimization for different assets and timeframes.
Volatility Sensitivity : High market volatility or erratic price action can affect ApEn calculations and potentially lead to less reliable zone signals.
Fixed Level Filter : The significant level filter is based on multiples of 50. While common, this may not capture all relevant levels for every asset or market condition. Accurate Tick Size input is essential.
Not Standalone : Should be used in conjunction with other analysis methods (price action, volume, other indicators) for confirmation, not as a sole basis for trading decisions.
💡 What Makes This Unique
Entropy + Level Context : Uniquely combines ApEn analysis with a specific filter for proximity to significant price levels (multiples of 50), adding locational context to entropy signals.
Intelligent Zone Merging : Automatically consolidates nearby buy/sell zones based on tick distance, simplifying visual analysis and highlighting stronger confluence areas.
Targeted Signal Generation : Focuses alerts and zone creation on specific market conditions (entropy shifts near key levels).
🔬 How It Works
Calculate Entropy : The script computes the Approximate Entropy (ApEn) of the closing prices over the defined Window Length to quantify price predictability.
Check Triggers : It monitors ApEn relative to its moving average. A crossunder below a calculated threshold (avg_apen / zone_threshold) indicates potential support; a crossover above (avg_apen * zone_threshold) indicates potential resistance.
Filter by Level : A potential zone trigger is confirmed only if the low (for support) or high (for resistance) of the trigger bar is within the Max Ticks Distance of a significant price level (multiple of 50).
Manage & Draw Zones : If a trigger is confirmed, a new zone box is created. The script checks for overlaps with existing zones within the Zone Merge Distance and merges them if necessary. Zones are extended forward, and the oldest are removed to respect the Maximum Zones limit. Active zones are drawn and updated on the chart.
💡 Note:
Crucially, set the Tick Size parameter correctly for your specific trading instrument in the “Level Filter Settings”. Incorrect Tick Size will make the significant level filter inaccurate.
Experiment with parameters, especially Window Length , Tolerance (r) , Zone Threshold , and Max Ticks Distance , to tailor the indicator’s sensitivity to your preferred asset and timeframe.
Always use this indicator as part of a comprehensive trading plan, incorporating risk management and seeking confirmation from other analysis techniques.
PoiBox# PoiBox: Advanced Market Structure and POI Visualization Tool
PoiBox is a comprehensive market structure analysis tool designed to identify high-probability trading zones through advanced internal market structure (IDM) detection and points of interest (POI) calculation.
## How It Works
The indicator uses a multi-step approach to analyze price action:
1. **Market Structure Identification**: The script identifies significant highs and lows within your selected time range to determine the overall market structure direction (up or down).
2. **IDM Pattern Detection**: It then analyzes internal market structure patterns within this range, focusing on significant price movements that create trading opportunities.
3. **POI Calculation**: Using adaptive ATR measurements across multiple timeframes, the indicator calculates precise POI zones where price is likely to react. These zones are calibrated based on the volatility profile of each identified structure.
4. **Timeframe Correlation**: The script automatically determines which timeframe best matches each structure's size, providing valuable context for your trading decisions.
5. **Technical Implementation**: The indicator uses a sophisticated algorithm to analyze price swings, identify pivot points, and calculate market structure connections. It maintains a database of significant highs/lows and uses these to determine trend direction and potential reversal zones.
## Display Modes
PoiBox offers three powerful display options:
- **Main BOS**: Shows only the most significant breakout structure with its associated POI zone
- **Leg**: Displays the largest price leg within the selected range along with percentage-based POI zones
- **All IDMs**: Reveals all detected internal market structures and their POI zones
## Advanced Features
- **QM Mode**: Visualizes important market structure relationships with dashed lines connecting significant highs and lows
- **Trick Display**: Identifies nested market structures (tricks) within larger patterns, perfect for precision entries
- **Customizable POI Labels**: Control which price labels appear to maintain chart clarity
- **Extensive Color Settings**: Fully customizable colors for all visual elements
- **Safety Functions**: Includes built-in buffer management and error prevention algorithms to ensure stable performance across all timeframes and market conditions
## Trading Examples
**Downtrend Example:**
When PoiBox identifies a downtrend structure (Higher High → High → Low → Lower Low), it creates POI zones based on the market structure. As shown in the chart, these zones provide excellent entry opportunities when price returns to test previous structure. In this example, entering at the red POI zone with a stop above the zone and target at the QM level resulted in a 3.45 risk/reward trade.
**How to Read QM Lines:**
The dashed lines connecting High → Low → Higher High → Lower Low reveal the market's true structure. These connections help you anticipate where price might head next. When price breaks below a significant Low and creates a Lower Low, it confirms the downtrend continuation and provides a trading opportunity when price retests the broken structure.
**POI Zone Interpretation:**
- Red zones indicate bearish POI areas (ideal for short entries)
- Green zones indicate bullish POI areas (ideal for long entries)
- Yellow zones highlight the identified market structure
## Practical Application Example
In the GBP/USD example shown in the chart:
1. PoiBox identified a downtrend structure with Higher High → High → Low → Lower Low
2. The yellow box shows the main market structure area
3. The red POI zone appeared when price returned to test previous structure
4. Entry was taken at the POI zone with stop loss above structure
5. Target was placed at the QM level, resulting in a 3.45 risk/reward ratio trade
6. The dashed QM lines showed the overall market flow and direction
This demonstrates how PoiBox automatically identifies optimal entry and exit points based on market structure, without requiring manual analysis of each price swing.
## Mathematical Approach
PoiBox uses several mathematical concepts to determine market structure and calculate POI zones:
1. **Adaptive ATR Integration**: The script analyzes ATR (Average True Range) across multiple timeframes (M1, M5, M15, H1, H4, D1, W1, MN1) to determine the appropriate volatility context for each structure.
2. **Height-to-ATR Ratio**: The indicator calculates the ratio between structure height and the closest matching ATR value to determine the structure's timeframe context.
3. **Dynamic POI Calculation**: POI values are calculated using the formula:
`POI = factor * (atr_trigger + atr_double_trigger)`
where `factor` is derived from the structure's height-to-ATR ratio.
4. **Self-Adjusting Limits**: If the calculated POI value exceeds certain thresholds relative to structure height, the script automatically applies proportional adjustments to maintain optimal zone sizing.
## What Makes PoiBox Unique
While many indicators use common concepts like support/resistance or trend analysis, PoiBox stands apart through its:
1. **Adaptive POI Calculation**: Unlike static indicators, PoiBox automatically calibrates POI zones based on each market structure's volatility profile by analyzing ATR across multiple timeframes.
2. **Smart Timeframe Detection**: The indicator automatically determines the most relevant timeframe for each structure, eliminating guesswork and helping you align your trading with the appropriate market cycles.
3. **QM Visualization System**: Our proprietary QM visualization method reveals hidden market structure relationships that standard indicators cannot detect, giving you an edge in anticipating price movements.
4. **Nested Pattern Recognition**: The "Trick" detection feature identifies high-probability setups where smaller patterns form within larger ones, creating precise entry opportunities missed by conventional tools.
5. **Self-Adjusting Analysis**: PoiBox dynamically adapts to changing market conditions without requiring manual parameter adjustments, saving you time and increasing accuracy.
These innovations combine to create a truly original trading system that transforms complex market structure concepts into clear, actionable signals.
## How To Use
1. Define your analysis area using the time range selectors (X1 and X2)
2. Choose your preferred display mode based on your trading style
3. Enable QM Mode for additional market structure context if needed
4. Use the POI zones as potential entry and exit areas for your trades
5. Reference the automatically detected timeframe indicators to align your trading with the appropriate timeframe

COT3 - Flip Strength Index - Invincible3This indicator uses the TradingView COT library to visualize institutional positioning and potential sentiment or trend shifts. It compares the long% vs short% of commercial and non-commercial traders for both Pair A and Pair B, helping traders identify trend strength, market overextension, and early reversal signals.
🔷 COT RSI
The COT RSI normalizes the net positioning difference between non-commercial and commercial traders over (N=13, 26, and 52)-week periods. It ranges from 0 to 100, highlighting when sentiment is at bullish or bearish extremes.
COT RSI (N)= ((NC - C)−min)/(max-min) x100
🟡 COT Index
The COT Index tracks where the current non-commercial net position lies within its 1-year and 3-year historical range. It reflects institutional accumulation or distribution phases.
Strength represents the magnitude of that positioning bias, visualized through normalized RSI-style metrics.
COT Index (N)= (NC net)/(max-min) x100
🔁 Flip Detection
Flip refers to the crossovers between long% and short%, indicating a change in directional bias among trader groups. When long positions exceed shorts (or vice versa), it signals a possible market flip in sentiment or trend.
For example, Pair B commercial flip is calculated as:
Long% = (Long/Open Interest)×100
Short% = (Short/Open Interest)×100
Flip = Long%−Short%
A bullish flip occurs when long% overtakes short%, and vice versa for a bearish flip. These flips often precede price trend changes or confirm sentiment breakouts.
Flip captures how far current positioning deviates from historical norms — highlighting periods of institutional overconfidence or exhaustion, often leading to significant market turns.
This combination offers a multi-layered edge for identifying when smart money is flipping direction, and whether that flip has strong conviction or is likely to fade.

AccumulationPro Money Flow StrategyAccumulationPro Money Flow Strategy identifies stock trading opportunities by analyzing money flow and potential long-only opportunities following periods of increased money inflow. It employs proprietary responsive indicators and oscillators to gauge the strength and momentum of the inflow relative to previous periods, detecting money inflow, buying/selling pressure, and potential continuation/reversals, while using trailing stop exits to maximize gains while minimizing losses, with careful consideration of risk management and position sizing.
Setup Instructions:
1. Configuring the Strategy Properties:
Click the "Settings" icon (the gear symbol) next to the strategy name.
Navigate to the "Properties" tab within the Settings window.
Initial Capital: This value sets the starting equity for the strategy backtesting. Keep in mind that you will need to specify your current account size in the "Inputs" settings for position sizing.
Base Currency: Leave this setting at its "Default" value.
Order Size: This setting, which determines the capital used for each trade during backtesting, is automatically calculated and updated by the script. You should leave it set to "1 Contract" and the script will calculate the appropriate number of contracts based on your risk per trade, account size, and stop-loss placement.
Pyramiding: Set this setting at 1 order to prevent the strategy from adding to existing positions.
Commission: Enter your broker's commission fee per trade as a percentage, some brokers might offer commission free trading. Verify Price for limit orders: Keep this value as 0 ticks.
Slippage: This value depends on the instrument you are trading, If you are trading liquid stocks on a 1D chart slippage might be neglected. You can Keep this value as 1 ticks if you want to be conservative.
Margin for long positions/short positions: Set both of these to 100% since this strategy does not employ leverage or margin trading.
Recalculate:
Select the "After order is filled" option.
Select the "On every tick" option.
Fill Orders: Keep “Using bar magnifier” unselected.
Select "On bar close". Select "Using standard OHLC"
2. Configuring the Strategy Inputs:
Click the "Inputs" tab in the Settings window.
From/Thru (Date Range): To effectively backtest the strategy, define a substantial period that includes various bullish and bearish cycles. This ensures the testing window captures a range of market conditions and provides an adequate number of trades. It is usually favorable to use a minimum of 8 years for backtesting. Ensure the "Show Date Range" box is checked.
Account Size: This is your actual current Account Size used in the position sizing table calculations.
Risk on Capital %: This setting allows you to specify the percentage of your capital you are willing to risk on each trade. A common value is 0.5%.
3. Configuring Strategy Style:
Select the "Style" tab.
Select the checkbox for “Stop Loss” and “Stop Loss Final” to display the black/red Average True Range Stop Loss step-lines
Make sure the checkboxes for "Upper Channel", "Middle Line", and "Lower Channel" are selected.
Select the "Plots Background" checkboxes for "Color 0" and "Color 1" so that the potential entry and exit zones become color-coded.
Having the checkbox for "Tables" selected allows you to see position sizing and other useful information within the chart.
Have the checkboxes for "Trades on chart" and "Signal Labels" selected for viewing entry and exit point labels and positions.
Uncheck* the "Quantity" checkbox.
Precision: select “Default”.
Check “Labels on price scale”
Check “Values in status line”
Strategy Application Guidelines:
Entry Conditions:
The strategy identifies long entry opportunities based on substantial money inflow, as detected by our proprietary indicators and oscillators. This assessment considers the strength and momentum of the inflow relative to previous periods, in conjunction with strong price momentum (indicated by our modified, less-lagging MACD) and/or a potential price reversal (indicated by our modified, less-noisy Stochastic). Additional confirmation criteria related to price action are also incorporated. Potential entry and exit zones are visually represented by bands on the chart.
A blue upward-pointing arrow, accompanied by the label 'Long' and green band fills, signifies a long entry opportunity. Conversely, a magenta downward-pointing arrow, labeled 'Close entry(s) order Long' with yellow band fills, indicates a potential exit.
Take Profit:
The strategy employs trailing stops, rather than fixed take-profit levels, to maximize gains while minimizing losses. Trailing stops adjust the stop-loss level as the stock price moves in a favorable direction. The strategy utilizes two types of trailing stop mechanisms: one based on the Average True Range (ATR), and another based on price action, which attempts to identify shifts in price momentum.
Stop Loss:
The strategy uses an Average True Range (ATR)-based stop-loss, represented by two lines on the chart. The black line indicates the primary ATR-based stop-loss level, set upon trade entry. The red line represents a secondary ATR stop-loss buffer, used in the position sizing calculation to account for potential slippage or price gaps.
To potentially reduce the risk of stop-hunting, discretionary traders might consider using a market sell order within the final 30 to 60 minutes of the main session, instead of automated stop-loss orders.
Order Types:
Market Orders are intended for use with this strategy, specifically when the candle and signal on the chart stabilize within the final 30 to 60 minutes of the main trading session.
Position Sizing:
A key aspect of this strategy is that its position size is calculated and displayed in a table on the chart. The position size is calculated based on stop-loss placement, including the stop-loss buffer, and the capital at risk per trade which is commonly set around 0.5% Risk on Capital per Trade.
Backtesting:
The backtesting results presented below the chart are for informational purposes only and are not intended to predict future performance. Instead, they serve as a tool for identifying instruments with which the strategy has historically performed well.
It's important to note that the backtester utilizes a tiny portion of the capital for each trade while our strategy relies on a diversified portfolio of multiple stocks or instruments being traded at once.
Important Considerations:
Volume data is crucial; the strategy will not load or function correctly without it. Ensure that your charts include volume data, preferably from a centralized exchange.
Our system is designed for trading a portfolio. Therefore, if you intend to use our system, you should employ appropriate position sizing, without leverage or margin, and seek out a variety of long opportunities, rather than opening a single trade with an excessively large position size.
If you are trading without automated signals, always allow the chart to stabilize. Refrain from taking action until the final 1 hour to 30 minutes before the end of the main trading session to minimize the risk of acting on false signals.
To align with the strategy's design, it's generally preferable to enter a trade during the same session that the signal appears, rather than waiting for a later session.
Disclaimer:
Trading in financial markets involves a substantial degree of risk. You should be aware of the potential for significant financial losses. It is imperative that you trade responsibly and avoid overtrading, as this can amplify losses. Remember that market conditions can change rapidly, and past performance is not indicative of future results. You could lose some or all of your initial investment. It is strongly recommended that you fully understand the risks involved in trading and seek independent financial advice from a qualified professional before using this strategy.
Institutional MACD (Z-Score Edition) [VolumeVigilante]📈 Institutional MACD (Z-Score Edition) — Professional-Grade Momentum Signal
This is not your average MACD .
The Institutional MACD (Z-Score Edition) is a statistically enhanced momentum tool, purpose-built for serious traders and breakout hunters . By applying Z-Score normalization to the classic MACD structure, this indicator uncovers statistically significant momentum shifts , enabling cleaner reads on price extremes, trend continuation, and potential reversals.
💡 Why It Matters
The classic MACD is powerful — but raw momentum values can be noisy and relative , especially on volatile assets like BTC/USD . By transforming the MACD line, signal line, and histogram into Z-scores , we anchor these signals in statistical context . This makes the Institutional MACD:
✔️ Timeframe-agnostic and asset-normalized
✔️ Ideal for spotting true breakouts , not false flags
✔️ A reliable tool for detecting momentum divergence and exhaustion
🧪 Key Features
✅ Full Z-Score normalization (MACD, Signal, Histogram)
✅ Highlighted ±Z threshold bands for overbought/oversold zones
✅ Customizable histogram coloring for visual momentum shifts
✅ Built-in alerts for zero-crosses and Z-threshold breaks
✅ Clean overlay with optional display toggles
🔁 Strategy Tip: Mean Reversion Signals with Statistical Confidence
This indicator isn't just for spotting breakouts — it also shines as a mean reversion tool , thanks to its Z-Score normalization .
When the Z-Score histogram crosses beyond ±2, it marks a statistically significant deviation from the mean — often signaling that momentum is overstretched and the asset may be due for a pullback or reversal .
📌 How to use it:
Z > +2 → Price action is in overbought territory. Watch for exhaustion or short setups.
Z < -2 → Momentum is deeply oversold. Look for reversal confirmation or long opportunities.
These zones often precede snap-back moves , especially in range-bound or corrective markets .
🎯 Combine Z-Score extremes with:
Candlestick confirmation
Support/resistance zones
Volume or price divergence
Other mean reversion tools (e.g., RSI, Bollinger Bands)
Unlike the raw MACD, this version delivers statistical thresholds , not guesswork — helping traders make decisions rooted in probability, not emotion.
📢 Trade Smart. Trade Vigilantly.

Trading Sessions [BigBeluga]
This indicator brings Smart Money Concept (ICT) session logic to life by plotting key global trading sessions with volume and delta analytics. It not only highlights session ranges but also tracks their midpoints — which often act as intraday support/resistance levels.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Visual session boxes: Plots boxes for Tokyo, London, New York, and Sydney sessions based on user-defined UTC+0 time ranges.
Volume & delta metrics: Displays total volume and delta volume (buy–sell difference) within each session.
Mid, High & Low Range Extension: Once a session ends, the high, low, and midpoint levels automatically extend — ideal for detecting SR zones.
Session labels: Each box includes a label with session name, time, volume, and delta for quick reference.
Custom session control: Enable or disable sessions individually and configure start/end times.
Clean aesthetics: Transparent shaded boxes with subtle borders make it easy to overlay without clutter.
Sessions Dashboard: Shows the time range of each session and tells you whether the session is currently active.
🔵 USAGE
Enable the sessions you want to monitor (e.g., New York or Tokyo) from the settings.
Use session volume and delta values to gauge the strength and direction of institutional activity.
Watch for price interaction with the extended range — it often acts as dynamic support/resistance after the session ends.
Overlay it with liquidity tools or breaker blocks for intraday strategy alignment.
🔵 EXAMPLES
Extended Future Range acted as resistance/support.
Delta value helped confirm bullish pressure during New York open.
Multiple sessions helped identify kill zone overlaps and high-volume turns.
Trading Sessions is more than just a visual scheduler — it's a precision tool for traders who align with session-based volume dynamics and ICT methodology. Use it to define high-probability zones, confirm volume shifts, and read deeper into the true intent behind market structure.
SMT Divergence ICT 02 [TradingFinder] Smart Money Technique SMC🔵 Introduction
SMT Divergence (Smart Money Technique Divergence) is a price action-based trading concept that detects discrepancies in market behavior between two assets that are generally expected to move in the same direction. Rooted in ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodology, this approach helps traders recognize subtle signs of market manipulation or imbalance, often ahead of traditional indicators.
The core idea behind SMT divergence is simple: when two correlated instruments—such as currency pairs, indices, or assets from the same sector—start forming different swing points (highs or lows), this can reveal a lack of confirmation in the trend. Such divergence is often a precursor to a price reversal or pause in momentum.
This technique works effectively across various markets including Forex, stocks, and cryptocurrencies. It’s particularly valuable when used alongside concepts like liquidity sweeps, market structure breaks (MSBs), or order block identification.
In advanced use cases, Sequential SMT helps uncover patterns of alternating divergences across sessions, often signaling engineered liquidity traps before price reacts.
When combined with the Quarterly Theory—which segments market behavior into Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, and Continuation/Reversal phases—traders gain insight not only into where divergence happens, but when it's most likely to be significant within the market cycle.
Bullish SMT :
Bullish SMT Divergence occurs when one asset prints a higher low while the correlated asset forms a lower low. This asymmetry often suggests that the downside move is losing strength, hinting at a potential bullish shift.
Bearish SMT :
Bearish SMT Divergence is formed when one asset creates a higher high, while the second asset fails to confirm by printing a lower high. This typically signals weakening bullish pressure and the possibility of a reversal to the downside.
🔵 How to Use
The SMT Divergence indicator is designed to detect imbalances between two positively correlated assets—such as major currency pairs, indices, or commodities. These divergences often indicate early signs of market inefficiency or smart money manipulation and can help traders anticipate trend shifts with higher precision.
Unlike traditional divergence indicators or earlier versions of this script, this upgraded version does not rely solely on consecutive pivot comparisons. Instead, it dynamically scans all available pivots within the chart to identify divergences at any structural level—major or minor—across the price action. This broader detection method increases the reliability and frequency of meaningful SMT signals.
Moreover, when integrated with Sequential SMT logic, the indicator is capable of identifying multiple divergence sequences across sessions. These sequences often signal engineered liquidity traps and can be mapped within the Quarterly Theory framework, allowing traders to pinpoint not just the presence of divergence but also the phase of the market cycle it appears in (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, or Continuation).
🟣 Bullish SMT Divergence
This signal occurs when the primary asset forms a higher low, while the correlated asset forms a lower low. This pattern implies weakening bearish momentum and a potential shift to the upside.
If the correlated asset breaks its previous low but the primary asset does not, this divergence suggests absorption of selling pressure and possible accumulation by smart money—making it a strong bullish signal, especially when aligned with a favorable market phase (e.g., the end of a manipulation phase in Q2).
🟣 Bearish SMT Divergence
This signal occurs when the primary asset creates a higher high, while the correlated asset forms a lower high. This mismatch indicates fading bullish momentum and a potential reversal to the downside.
If the correlated asset fails to confirm a breakout made by the main asset, the divergence may point to distribution or exhaustion. When seen within Q3 or Q4 phases of the Quarterly Theory, this pattern often precedes sharp declines or fake-outs engineered by smart money

long_signal := true
else
awaiting_bull_confirmation := true
3. Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
= request.security(syminfo.tickerid, mtf_period,
)
The HTF filter looks at a higher timeframe (default: 4H) to confirm the trend
It only allows:
Long trades when the higher timeframe is bullish
Short trades when the higher timeframe is bearish
📈 Trading Application Guide:
1. Signal Identification
• Oversold Opportunities (< 30 level)
- Look for bullish crosses of K-line above D-line
- Confirm with higher timeframe alignment
- Wait for price action confirmation (bullish candle)
• Overbought Conditions (> 70 level)
- Watch for bearish crosses of K-line below D-line
- Verify higher timeframe condition
- Confirm with bearish price action
2. Divergence Trading
• Bullish Divergence
- Price makes lower lows while indicator makes higher lows
- Most effective when occurring in oversold territory
- Use with support levels for entry timing
• Bearish Divergence
- Price makes higher highs while indicator shows lower highs
- Most reliable in overbought conditions
- Combine with resistance levels
3. Wave Effect Analysis
• Strong Waves
- Multiple wave lines moving in same direction indicate momentum
- Wider wave spread suggests increased volatility
- Use for trend strength confirmation
• Energy Field
- Higher intensity in trading zones suggests stronger moves
- Use for momentum confirmation
- Watch for energy field convergence with price action
The energy field is like a heat map that shows momentum strength
It gets stronger (more visible) when:
Price is in oversold (<30) or overbought (>70) zones
The indicator lines are moving apart quickly
A strong signal is forming
Think of it as a "strength meter" - the more visible the energy field, the stronger the potential move
4. Risk Management Integration
• Entry Confirmation
- Wait for all signal components to align
- Use higher timeframe for trend direction
- Confirm with price action and SMA positions
• Stop Loss Placement
- Consider placing stops beyond recent swing points
- Use ATR for dynamic stop calculation
- Account for market volatility
5. Position Management
• Partial Profit Taking
- Consider scaling out at overbought/oversold levels
- Use wave effect intensity for exit timing
- Monitor energy field for momentum shifts
• Trade Duration
- Short-term: Use primary signals in trading zones
- Swing trades: Focus on divergence signals
- Position trades: Utilize higher timeframe signals
⚠️ Important Usage Notes:
• Avoid:
- Trading against strong trends
- Relying solely on single signals
- Ignoring higher timeframe context
- Over-leveraging based on signals
Remember: This tool is designed to assist in analysis but should never be used as the sole decision-maker for trades. Always maintain proper risk management and combine with other forms of analysis.
Son Model ICT [TradingFinder] HTF DOL H1 + Sweep M15 + FVG M1🔵 Introduction
The ICT Son Model setup is a precise trading strategy based on market structure and liquidity, implemented across multiple timeframes. This setup first identifies a liquidity level in the 1-hour (1H) timeframe and then confirms a Market Structure Shift (MSS) in the 5-minute (5M) timeframe to validate the trend. After confirmation, the price forms a new swing in the 5-minute timeframe, absorbing liquidity.
Once this level is broken, traders typically drop to the 30-second (30s) timeframe and enter trades based on a Fair Value Gap (FVG). However, since access to the 30-second timeframe is not available to most traders, we take the entry signal directly from the 5-minute timeframe, using the same liquidity zones and confirmed breakouts to execute trades. This approach simplifies execution and makes the strategy accessible to all traders.
This model operates in two setups :
Bullish ICT Son Model and Bearish ICT Son Model. In the bullish setup, liquidity is first accumulated at the lows of the 1-hour timeframe, and after confirming a market structure shift, a long position is initiated. Conversely, in the bearish setup, liquidity is first drawn from higher levels, and upon confirmation of a bearish trend, a short position is executed.
Bullish Setup :
Bearish Setup :
🔵 How to Use
The ICT Son Model setup is designed around liquidity analysis and market structure shifts and can be applied in both bullish and bearish market conditions. The strategy first identifies a liquidity level in the 1-hour (1H) timeframe and then confirms a Market Structure Shift (MSS) in the 5-minute (5M) timeframe.
After this shift, the price forms a new swing, absorbing liquidity. When this level is broken in the 5-minute timeframe, the trader enters based on a Fair Value Gap (FVG). While the ideal entry is in the 30-second (30s) timeframe, due to accessibility constraints, we take entry signals directly from the 5-minute timeframe.
🟣 Bullish Setup
In the Bullish ICT Son Model, the 1-hour timeframe first identifies liquidity at the market lows, where price sweeps this level to absorb liquidity. Then, in the 5-minute timeframe, an MSS confirms the bullish shift.
After confirmation, the price forms a new swing, absorbing liquidity at a higher level. The price then retraces into a Fair Value Gap (FVG) created in the 5-minute timeframe, where the trader enters a long position, placing the stop-loss below the FVG.
🟣 Bearish Setup
In the Bearish ICT Son Model, liquidity at higher market levels is identified in the 1-hour timeframe, where price sweeps these levels to absorb liquidity. Then, in the 5-minute timeframe, an MSS confirms the bearish trend.
After confirmation, the price forms a new swing, absorbing liquidity at a lower level. The price then retraces into a Fair Value Gap (FVG) created in the 5-minute timeframe, where the trader enters a short position, placing the stop-loss above the FVG.
🔵 Settings
Swing period : You can set the swing detection period.
Max Swing Back Method : It is in two modes "All" and "Custom". If it is in "All" mode, it will check all swings, and if it is in "Custom" mode, it will check the swings to the extent you determine.
Max Swing Back : You can set the number of swings that will go back for checking.
FVG Length : Default is 120 Bar.
MSS Length : Default is 80 Bar.
FVG Filter : This refines the number of identified FVG areas based on a specified algorithm to focus on higher quality signals and reduce noise.
Types of FVG filters :
Very Aggressive Filter: Adds a condition where, for an upward FVG, the last candle's highest price must exceed the middle candle's highest price, and for a downward FVG, the last candle's lowest price must be lower than the middle candle's lowest price. This minimally filters out FVGs.
Aggressive Filter: Builds on the Very Aggressive mode by ensuring the middle candle is not too small, filtering out more FVGs.
Defensive Filter: Adds criteria regarding the size and structure of the middle candle, requiring it to have a substantial body and specific polarity conditions, filtering out a significant number of FVGs.
Very Defensive Filter: Further refines filtering by ensuring the first and third candles are not small-bodied doji candles, retaining only the highest quality signals.
🔵 Conclusion
The ICT Son Model setup is a structured and precise method for trade execution based on liquidity analysis and market structure shifts. This strategy first identifies a liquidity level in the 1-hour timeframe and then confirms a trend shift using the 5-minute timeframe.
Trade entries are executed based on Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), which highlight optimal entry points. By applying this model, traders can leverage existing market liquidity to enter high-probability trades. The bullish setup activates when liquidity is swept from market lows and a market structure shift confirms an upward trend, whereas the bearish setup is used when liquidity is drawn from market highs, confirming a downtrend.
This approach enables traders to identify high-probability trade setups with greater precision compared to many other strategies. Additionally, since access to the 30-second timeframe is limited, the strategy remains fully functional in the 5-minute timeframe, making it more practical and accessible for a wider range of traders.
