Intraday Session Ranges (Asian-London-NY) - JonathanJD86This script is a technical utility designed to automatically track and visualize the high and low price levels of the three major trading sessions (Asian, London, and New York).
How it works: The script uses the time() function with the America/New_York timezone anchor to ensure accuracy regardless of the user's local time. It tracks the maximum and minimum price values during specific user-defined intervals.
Key Methodology:
Vertical Tick Offset: Unlike standard session boxes, this tool allows users to set a vertical gap (in ticks) so that the labels do not overlap the candle wicks, providing a clearer view of the actual price action.
Session Intervals: Defaulted to high-activity windows: Asian (20:00-00:00), London (02:00-05:00), and New York (08:30-16:00).
Dynamic Visibility: The script includes a logical check to automatically hide levels on timeframes higher than 1H, preventing chart clutter during macro analysis.

ICT Algo: Sweep + MSS + High Prob FVG/IFVGThis script is a comprehensive execution tool based on Inner Circle Trader (ICT) concepts, specifically designed to identify high-probability entries by combining Liquidity Sweeps, Market Structure Shifts (MSS), and Fair Value Gaps (FVG/IFVG).
Unlike standard FVG indicators that highlight every gap on the chart, this "Algo" version filters for gaps that occur specifically after a liquidity purge and a shift in structure, ensuring you are only looking at setups with institutional backing.
How It Works
The script follows a strict 3-step validation process before plotting a signal:
Liquidity Sweep (The Context): The script tracks Higher Timeframe (HTF) levels including Previous Day High/Low, Weekly High/Low, and Monthly High/Low. A setup is only considered valid if price has recently "swept" one of these levels, indicating a hunt for liquidity.
Market Structure Shift (The Confirmation): Once a sweep occurs, the script looks for a displacement in the opposite direction. It identifies a "Pivot High/Low" (customizable length) and waits for a candle body to close beyond it (MSS).
Filtered Entry (The Trigger): * FVG: Plots a standard Fair Value Gap if it forms within a "Deep Value" zone (Discount for longs, Premium for shorts).
IFVG (Inversion FVG): Highlights failed FVGs that have been reclaimed by price to act as support or resistance.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Liquidity Filters: Automatically plots PDH/L, PWH/L, PMH/L, and PYH/L. You can toggle which levels act as your sweep triggers.
Deep Value Logic: The script uses built-in logic to ensure Bullish FVGs are only highlighted when price is below a key liquidity level (Discount), and Bearish FVGs when price is above (Premium).
Dynamic Box Management: To keep your chart clean, boxes for FVGs and IFVGs are automatically shortened ("cut") once they are mitigated by price.
Inversion Logic: Includes a specialized toggle for Inversion Fair Value Gaps, allowing you to trade "failed" gaps that flip their polarity.
Settings & Customization
Entry Setup Bias: Choose to see only Bullish, only Bearish, or Both setups.
MSS Pivot Length: Adjust how "sensitive" the Market Structure Shift detection is. A higher number requires a more significant swing to be broken.
Sweep Lookback: Defines how many bars back the script looks for a liquidity sweep to remain "active" for a setup.
Include Opens: Optional toggle to include Previous Day/Week/Month Opens as liquidity points.
Usage Tips
The Golden Setup: Look for a sweep of a Previous Day High, followed by a Bearish MSS, and an entry at the Red FVG box.
Risk Management: This indicator is designed for entry identification. Always use stop losses (usually placed above/below the candle that created the FVG or the MSS swing point).
Timeframes: Best used on execution timeframes (1m, 5m, 15m) while the script handles the HTF levels automatically.
Disclaimer: This script is an educational tool and does not constitute financial advice. Trading involves significant risk. Past performance of a strategy does not guarantee future results.

Smart Fixed Volume Profile [MarkitTick]💡 This comprehensive analysis suite integrates Auction Market Theory, structural gap analysis, and statistical liquidity strain modeling into a single, cohesive toolkit. Designed for traders who require a granular view of institutional order flow, this indicator overlays a Fixed Range Volume Profile with intelligent price gap classification and a volatility-adjusted exhaustion detector. By combining these three distinct analytical dimensions, it allows users to identify value consensus, structural breakouts, and potential market turns driven by liquidity shortages.
✨ Originality and Utility
While standard Volume Profiles display where trading occurred, this script advances the concept by contextually analyzing *how* price arrived at those levels. It solves the problem of isolated analysis by fusing three disparate methodologies:
Contextual Integration: It does not merely show support and resistance; it qualifies moves using "Smart Gaps" (classifying gaps based on market structure) and "Liquidity Strain" (identifying unsustainable price velocity).
Institutional Footprint: The inclusion of an "Unusual Volume" highlighter within the profile bars helps traders spot hidden institutional accumulation or distribution blocks that standard profiles miss.
Hybrid Logic: By combining a fixed-time profile (anchored to specific dates) with dynamic, developing gap analysis, it provides both a static roadmap of the past and a dynamic interpretation of current price action.
🔬 Methodology and Concepts
• Fixed Volume Profile Engine
The core of the indicator constructs a volume distribution histogram over a user-defined time window. It utilizes a custom aggregation engine that:
Fetches higher-timeframe volume and price data to ensure accuracy.
Segments the price range into specific "bins" or rows.
Allocates volume to these bins based on price action within the bar, separating Buying Volume (Up bars) from Selling Volume (Down bars).
Calculates the Point of Control (POC) —the price level with the highest traded volume—and the Value Area , which contains 70% (customizable) of the total volume centered around the POC.
• Smart Gap Logic
The script systematically identifies price gaps and classifies them based on their location relative to market pivots (Highs/Lows):
Breakaway Gaps: Occur when price gaps beyond a significant structural pivot (Lookback High/Low), signaling a potential trend initiation.
Runaway Gaps: Occur within an existing trend without breaking structure, indicating trend continuation.
Exhaustion Gaps: Identified when a gap occurs late in a mature trend (measured by bar count since the last pivot) accompanied by a volume spike, suggesting the trend is overextended.
• Liquidity Strain Detector
This module utilizes a statistical approach to measure market stress. It calculates "Illiquidity" by analyzing the ratio of True Range to Volume (Price Impact).
It applies a Logarithmic transformation to normalize the data.
It calculates a Z-Score (Standard Deviation from the mean) of this impact.
If the Z-Score exceeds a threshold (e.g., 2.0 Sigma) while the trend opposes the price move, it triggers an exhaustion signal, indicating that price is moving too easily on too little volume (thin liquidity).
🎨 Visual Guide
• Volume Profile Elements
Histogram Bars: Horizontal bars representing volume at price. Cyan indicates bullish volume; Red indicates bearish volume.
Unusual Volume Highlight: Bars with volume exceeding the average by a set factor (default 2x) are highlighted with brighter, distinct overlays to denote institutional interest.
POC Line: A solid Yellow line marking the price level with the highest volume.
VAH / VAL Lines: Dashed Blue lines marking the Value Area High and Value Area Low.
Background Box: A grey shaded area encapsulating the entire time and price range of the profile.
• Smart Gap Boxes
Blue Box (Breakaway): Marks the start of a new structural move.
Orange Box (Runaway): Marks continuation gaps in the middle of a trend.
Red Box (Exhaustion): Marks potential trend termination points.
Dotted Lines: Extend from the center of gap boxes to serve as future support/resistance levels. These boxes are automatically deleted if price "fills" or violates the gap level.
Note: This tool incorporates core components from [ Smart Gap Concepts ], optimized for this specific strategy.
• Liquidity Signals
Green Label (SE): "Seller Exhaustion" – Appears below bars in a downtrend when selling pressure is statistically overextended.
Red Label (BE): "Buyer Exhaustion" – Appears above bars in an uptrend when buying pressure is statistically overextended.
Note: This tool incorporates core components from [ Liquidity Strain Detector ], optimized for this specific strategy.
📖 How to Use
• Interactive Range Selection: This indicator features a flexible, interactive input system. Upon adding the script to your chart, execution is paused until the analysis range is defined. You will be prompted to click on the chart twice: first to establish the Start Date and second to establish the End Date. Once these anchor points are confirmed, the indicator will automatically load the data and generate the profile for the selected specific period.
● Strategies for Optimal Anchoring
the optimal starting and ending points for high-probability setups:
Swing Highs and Lows (Trend Analysis):
Anchor the Start Date at a major structural swing high or low and the End Date at the current price using the Extend to Present feature. This identifies the "Fair Value" for the entire price move .
Consolidation/Range Anchoring:
Set the Start Date at the first bar of a sideways range and the End Date at the breakout candle. This reveals the high-node volume clusters that will act as future support or resistance.
Session-Based Anchoring (Intraday):
Align the Start Date with the session open (e.g., London or New York open) to track institutional flow for that specific day .
Event-Driven Anchoring:
Place the Start Date on a significant news event or a Breakaway Gap identified by the script's Gap Engine. This helps determine if the new volume supports the direction of the gap.
Correction Cycles:
During a pullback, anchor the Start Date at the start of the correction to find the Value Area Low (VAL), which often serves as a tactical entry point for a trend continuation.
• Identifying Value:
Use the Value Area to gauge market consensus. Acceptance of price within the VA indicates balance. A breakout above VAH or below VAL suggests the market is searching for new value. The POC often acts as a magnet for price correction.
• Trading Breakouts:
Watch for Breakaway Gaps (Blue) that align with a move out of the Volume Profile's Value Area. This confluence increases the probability of a sustained trend.
• Spotting Reversals:
Combine Exhaustion Gaps (Red) with Liquidity Strain Signals (SE/BE) . If price gaps up into a low-volume node on the profile and prints a "Buyer Exhaustion" signal, it suggests the move is unsupported by liquidity and liable to reverse.
• Support and Resistance:
The extended dotted lines from the Smart Gap boxes act as dynamic support/resistance. A retest of a "Runaway Gap" is often a viable entry point for trend continuation.
⚙️ Inputs and Settings
• Global Profile:
Start/End Date: Define the exact window for the volume profile calculation.
Extend to Present: If checked, the profile updates with live data beyond the end date.
• Profile Settings:
Number of Rows: Determines the vertical resolution (granularity) of the histogram.
Value Area %: Default is 70%, representing one standard deviation of volume distribution.
Placement: Position the profile on the Left or Right of the defined range.
• Liquidity & Gaps:
Unusual Threshold: Multiplier of average volume to highlight institutional bars (default 2.0x).
Structure Lookback: Adjusts the sensitivity of pivot detection for gap classification.
Stress Threshold (Sigma): The Z-Score limit for triggering Liquidity Strain signals (default 2.0).
🔍 Deconstruction of the Underlying Scientific and Academic Framework
• Auction Market Theory (AMT):
The script is grounded in AMT, which posits that the market's primary function is to facilitate trade. The Volume Profile visualizes this by displaying a bell curve of price distribution. The Value Area (typically 70%) corresponds to the First Standard Deviation in a normal Gaussian distribution, representing the area of "Fair Value" where buyers and sellers agree.
• Market Microstructure & Kyle’s Lambda:
The Liquidity Strain module draws conceptually from Kyle’s Lambda, a metric in market microstructure that measures market depth and price impact (Illiquidity). By calculating the ratio of price change (True Range) to Volume, the script approximates the "cost" of moving the market.
• Statistical Z-Score Normalization:
To make the liquidity data actionable, the script applies Z-Score normalization: Z = (X - μ) / σ . This converts raw illiquidity values into standard deviations from the mean. A Z-Score above +2.0 signifies a statistically significant anomaly—an outlier event where price moved excessively relative to the volume traded, often preceding a mean-reversion event.

GEX Walls + Market Open Shading### Overview
This Pine Script (version 6) creates a TradingView indicator called **"GEX Walls + Market Open Shading"**. It overlays directly on the price chart and is designed for intraday trading, particularly for indices like SPX or ES futures. The script combines two main features:
- **GEX Walls**: Visual boxes and labels highlighting "Gamma Exposure" (GEX) levels—key support (Put Wall) and resistance (Call Wall) zones based on options gamma. It includes approach alerts.
- **Market Open Shading**: A semi-transparent background shade during a customizable post-market-open session (e.g., first 2 hours after 9:30 AM EST).
It uses up to 20 boxes and 20 labels, with right-scale positioning for better visibility on the price axis. The script detects new trading days to reset visuals dynamically.
### Key Inputs
The script is highly customizable via inputs grouped into sections:
#### GEX Walls Inputs
- **Call Wall** (default: 6900.0): Upper resistance level.
- **Put Wall** (default: 6850.0): Lower support level.
- **Buffer** (default: 3.0 points): Vertical padding around each wall for box thickness.
- **Alert Distance** (default: 10.0 points): Threshold for triggering "approach" alerts.
- **Colors**: Semi-transparent yellow for Call Wall boxes (#ffeb3b at 80% opacity), orange for Put Wall (#ff9800 at 80%).
- **Toggles**: Show/hide boxes; enable/disable alerts; restrict alerts to shaded session only.
- **Labels**: Text color (white), offset (bars to the right, default -2), size (tiny/small/normal/large).
#### Market Open Shading Inputs
- **Shade Color** (default: white at 90% transparency): Background fill during session.
- **Transparency** (0-100, default: 90): Opacity level.
- **Open Time** (default: 9:30 EST): Hour/minute for session start.
- **Duration**: Dropdown with pre-formatted options (e.g., "120 min: 11:30a EST / 8:30a PST" up to 195 min), showing both EST and PST end times for convenience.
- **Toggle**: Show/hide shading.
### How It Works
#### 1. Market Open Shading
- Calculates end time from open hour/minute + selected duration (e.g., 120 minutes from 9:30 AM EST = 11:30 AM EST).
- Builds a session string (e.g., "0930-1130") for TradingView's `time()` function.
- Detects if the current bar is within the session using `not na(time("", sessionString))`.
- Applies `bgcolor()` with the user-defined color/transparency only during the session.
- Helper functions format times in 12-hour AM/PM style (e.g., "11:30a") for labels, with EST/PST variants.
#### 2. Day Detection
- Uses `time("D")` to track daily changes (`ta.change(dayTime) != 0` signals a new day).
- Maintains variables for the current day's start bar index (`todayStartIndex`) and previous day's start (`prevStartIndex`).
- This ensures boxes span exactly from yesterday's open to today (intraday reset on new days).
#### 3. GEX Walls Visualization
- **Boxes**: Drawn once `prevStartIndex` is known (i.e., on the second day onward).
- Left edge: Previous day's start bar.
- Right edge: Current bar (extends live).
- Height: Wall level ± buffer (e.g., Call Wall box from 6900-3 to 6900+3).
- Updated dynamically with `box.set_*` functions; hidden (100% transparent) if toggled off.
- **Labels**: Placed at exact wall levels, offset to the right (e.g., 2 bars ahead for readability).
- Text: "CALL WALL: 6900.0" or "PUT WALL: 6850.0".
- Style: Right-aligned, black background (transparent), user-defined text color/size.
- Deleted if toggled off.
- All visuals use `xloc.bar_index` for bar-based positioning.
#### 4. Alerts
- **Call Wall Approach**: Triggers when close enters within `alertDistance` below the wall, but prior bar was further away (rising toward resistance). Message: "Price approaching Call Wall at from below (within points)".
- **Put Wall Approach**: Symmetric for falling toward support (within distance above wall).
- Filtered optionally to shaded session only.
- Uses `alertcondition()` with hidden plots (`display=display.none`) for dynamic message placeholders (e.g., `{{plot_0}}` inserts wall level).
### Notable Features & Behaviors
- **Intraday Focus**: Boxes/labels reset daily, making it ideal for day trading without historical clutter.
- **Time Zone Handling**: Defaults to EST for market open but shows PST equivalents in dropdowns (subtracts 3 hours).
- **Efficiency**: Uses `var` declarations for persistent objects (boxes/labels) to avoid recreation on every bar.
- **Edge Cases**: Handles label offsets (clamped -10 to 50 bars); session wrapping (e.g., overnight via %24); new chart loads (initializes on first bar).
- **Customization Depth**: 20+ inputs allow fine-tuning without code edits. Alerts integrate seamlessly with TradingView's system.
- **Limitations**: Relies on bar_index for historical spanning (best on lower timeframes like 1-5 min); no historical backfill for walls (live-only).
This script is a practical tool for options-aware traders monitoring gamma squeezes or pinning levels during market open volatility. To use it, paste into TradingView's Pine Editor, adjust inputs for your asset (e.g., update walls for current GEX data), and add to chart.
TrendlinesTrendline S&R
This indicator is an automated technical analysis tool designed to identify the most relevant Support and Resistance (S&R) zones based on market pivots. Unlike standard pivot indicators that clutter the chart with historic lines, this script uses a "Closest-to-Price" algorithm to display only the single most relevant Support (Green) and Resistance (Red) zone currently interacting with price action.
It solves common frustrations with automated trendlines—specifically the issue of lines disappearing immediately upon a breakout—by introducing a Stability Buffer.
Key Features & Importance
The script scans hundreds of potential trendlines but only draws the one geographically closest to the current price.
Importance: This ensures you are looking at the zone that matters right now. It filters out distant or irrelevant historic lines, keeping your chart clean and focused on immediate price action.
🛡️ 5-Bar Stability Buffer (Anti-Flicker)
Feature: A hardcoded 5-bar "memory" prevents the zone from disappearing the moment price touches or breaks it.
Importance: This is critical for trading breakouts. It allows you to see the zone persist while price breaches it, helping you distinguish between a true breakout, a fakeout, or a retest, without the reference level vanishing from your screen.
🔍 Dynamic Pivot Filtering
Feature: Uses a restricted Pivot Strength (5-15) and Minimum Confirmation (2-8 touches).
Importance: By enforcing these limits, the indicator ignores insignificant market noise and micro-swings, ensuring that drawn zones represent structural market levels with genuine liquidity.
🔔 Integrated Alert System
Feature: Built-in alerts for "Zone Breakout" (candle close crossing the zone) and "Zone Touch" (wick entering the zone).
Importance: Allows you to set the indicator and walk away. You will be notified instantly when price interacts with these key levels, removing the need to stare at the chart.
📉 Adaptive Tolerance (Fixed ATR)
Feature: Uses a fixed ATR multiplier internally to determine the width of the zone.
Importance: This automatically adjusts the thickness of the support/resistance zone based on the asset's volatility.
Settings Guide
Bars to Apply: How far back in history the script looks for pivots (Default: 300).
Pivot Source: Choose between calculating from "High/Low" (wicks) or "Close" (bodies).
Pivot Strength: The number of bars required on each side to define a swing point (Range: 5–15).
Min Pivot Confirmation: The minimum number of touches required to validate a trendline (Range: 2–8).
How to Use
Add the indicator to your chart.
Adjust Pivot Strength if you want to catch smaller swings (lower number) or major structures (higher number).
Set an alert in TradingView by clicking the "Clock" icon, selecting this indicator, and choosing "Zone Breakout" or "Zone Touch".

Hyperfork Matrix🔱 Hyperfork Matrix 🔱 A manual Andrews Pitchfork tool with action/reaction propagation lines and lattice matrix functionality. This indicator extends Dr. Alan Andrews' and Patrick Mikula's median line methodology by automating the projection of reaction and action lines at equidistant intervals, creating a time-price grid that highlights where pivot levels intersect the matrix.
Three pitchfork variants are supported: Original, Schiff, and Modified Schiff. Each variant adjusts the anchor point position to accommodate different trend angles.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ THE METHOD
Andrews Pitchfork
Dr. Alan Andrews developed the pitchfork as a trend channel tool. The core principle: price tends to return to the median line roughly 80% of the time. When it fails to reach the median, a reversal may be developing.
A pitchfork requires three pivot points:
• Point A — The anchor (starting pivot)
• Point B — First swing in the opposite direction
• Point C — Second swing, same direction as A
The median line runs from Point A through the midpoint of B-C. Parallel lines through B and C form the channel boundaries.
Action/Reaction Principle
Based on Newton's third law ("action and reaction are equal and opposite"), this principle suggests that price movements elicit proportional reactions in the future. By projecting lines at equal intervals along the pitchfork's slope, we anticipate where these reactions may occur.
Lattice Matrix
The lattice squares pivot price levels to the matrix structure. A horizontal from your selected pivot intersects the pitchfork and propagation lines, with verticals drawn at each intersection. These verticals mark time points where price-time geometry converges—potential areas to watch for trend changes.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ HOW THE INDICATOR WORKS
This section explains the calculation flow from your inputs to the final drawing.
Step 1 — Pivot Selection
You click on the chart to select three timestamps. The indicator retrieves the high or low price at each timestamp based on your starting pivot type selection:
• Starting with "Low" creates a Low-High-Low pattern
• Starting with "High" creates a High-Low-High pattern
Step 2 — Anchor Calculation
The anchor position depends on your pitchfork variant:
• Original — Anchor stays at Point A
• Schiff — Anchor shifts 50% toward B in price (Y-axis only)
• Modified Schiff — Anchor shifts 50% toward B in both time and price
Step 3 — Median Line
A line is drawn from the anchor through the midpoint of the B-C segment. This median line defines the channel's slope and center.
Step 4 — Parallel Tines
Parallel lines are drawn through Points B and C, maintaining the median line's slope. These form the upper and lower channel boundaries.
Step 5 — Extra Parallels
If configured, additional parallel lines are drawn at equal spacing beyond B and C. The spacing equals the distance from the median to each tine.
Step 6 — Handle Length
The "handle" is the segment from the anchor to the B-C midpoint. This length becomes the unit of measurement for propagation.
Step 7 — Propagation Points
Points are placed along the median line at handle-length intervals:
• Forward points extend into the future
• Backward points extend into the past
Step 8 — Reaction Lines
Through each propagation point, a line is drawn parallel to B-C (the transversal slope). These reaction lines mark time-price zones based on the original swing rhythm, where trend changes may occur.
Step 9 — Action Lines
Through each propagation point, a line is drawn parallel to A-B (the initial move slope). These action lines project the original momentum into future price zones.
Step 10 — Lattice Grid
If enabled, a horizontal line is drawn at the price level of your selected pivot. Vertical lines are then drawn at every intersection between this horizontal and the selected line type (pitchfork, reaction, or action lines).
Step 11 — Alert Monitoring
On each bar, the indicator checks if the price has crossed any of the drawn lines. Crossings trigger alerts based on your configuration.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ PITCHFORK VARIANTS
Original (Andrews)
The classic pitchfork. The anchor remains at Point A. Best suited for strong trending markets where price respects steep channels.
Schiff
Named after Jerome Schiff, a student of Andrews. The anchor shifts halfway toward Point B in price only—same time position as A, but price is the midpoint of A and B.
This produces a less steep channel, better suited for:
• Shallow trends
• Corrective phases
• Markets where the original pitchfork angle is too aggressive
Modified Schiff
The anchor shifts halfway toward Point B in both time and price—positioned at the midpoint of the A-B segment.
This creates an even gentler slope than the standard Schiff variant. Use when:
• Trends are weak or ranging
• Price doesn't respect steeper channel angles
• You need a middle ground between Original and Schiff
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ ACTION & REACTION LINES
Reaction Lines
These run parallel to the B-C segment (the "transversal"). They represent the market's response rhythm—the swing from B to C sets a pattern that may repeat at predictable intervals.
Action Lines
These run parallel to the A-B segment (the initial impulse). They project the original momentum forward, suggesting where similar price movements may begin or end.
Forward vs Backward
• Forward Lines — Project into the future beyond the B-C midpoint
• Backward Lines — Project into the past before Point A
Most analysis focuses on forward lines, but backward lines can reveal historical confluence with past pivots.
Propagation Spacing
Lines are spaced at equal intervals defined by the handle length (anchor to B-C midpoint). This creates a rhythmic structure where each segment equals the original pitchfork's core measurement.
Action Lines
Reaction Lines
Extra Parallels with/ both Action & Reactions Line extended within the grid
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ LATTICE MATRIX
The lattice creates a grid overlay within the pitchfork structure.
Horizontal Line
A horizontal line is drawn at the price level of your selected pivot (A, B, or C). This squares the pivot's price level to find where it aligns with the matrix structure. These confluences may represent higher-probability reaction points in time.
Vertical Lines
Vertical lines are drawn at every point where the horizontal intersects your selected line source. These verticals mark time points—potential areas to watch for trend changes.
• Pitchfork & Parallels — Intersections with median and all parallel tines
• Action Lines — Intersections with action transversals
• Reaction Lines — Intersections with reaction transversals
• Action & Reaction — Both types combined
Envelope Clamping
Lattice lines are automatically clamped to stay within the pitchfork's channel envelope (bounded by the outermost parallels). This keeps the grid visually clean and focused on relevant areas.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ ALERTS
The indicator monitors price crossings and triggers alerts when the price moves through any drawn line type.
Available Alert Types
• Pitchfork Lines — Crossing the median or any parallel
• Action Lines — Crossing any action transversal (when action lines are drawn)
• Reaction Lines — Crossing any reaction transversal (when reaction lines are drawn)
• Lattice Horizontal — Crossing the horizontal price level (when lattice is enabled)
• Any Line Crossing — Combined alert for all of the above

Support & Resistance with MA Ribbons LITE Support & Resistance with MA Ribbon LITE
Overview
Support & Resistance with MA Ribbon LITE is a technical analysis indicator for TradingView that combines a flexible Moving Average (MA) Ribbon with a dynamic Support & Resistance (S/R) system.
The indicator is designed as a visual decision-support tool, allowing traders to evaluate trend structure, momentum context, and key price reaction zones within a single, uncluttered chart overlay.
This script is published as open source under the Mozilla Public License 2.0 , encouraging transparency, learning, and community-driven development.
Core Components
1. Moving Average Ribbon System
The MA Ribbon consists of two configurable moving averages (Fast and Slow) with multiple calculation and smoothing options, including:
EMA, SMA, WMA, VWMA
DEMA, TEMA, Zero-Lag EMA
Hull MA, Linear Regression MA
Super Smoother, Smoothed MA, Laguerre MA
Key features include:
Trend-aware ribbon fill (bullish / bearish)
Optional candle coloring aligned with ribbon state
Minute-based anchor timeframe logic for consistent trend structure
Optional MA cross, swing, and continuation markers
Alert support for MA-related events
The MA Ribbon is intended to provide trend context , not standalone trade signals.
2. Support & Resistance Engine
The Support & Resistance system is based on pivot structure analysis and dynamically adapts to new price data.
Features include:
Main and strong support/resistance levels
Up to 12 active levels displayed on the chart
Preset sensitivities (Scalp, Intraday, Swing) and custom configuration
Optional multi-timeframe (MTF) level detection
Adaptive labels with automatic contrast handling
Optional strength filtering based on historical interactions
Optional heat map visualization reflecting level interaction frequency
All levels are plotted directly on the price chart for immediate contextual reference.
Alert System
The script includes a configurable alert framework covering:
Main and strong level touches
Breakouts and breakdowns
Retests of broken levels
Optional rejection detection (wick beyond a level with close back inside)
Cooldown logic to limit repeated alerts in consolidation phases
Alerts are informational only and should always be confirmed visually.
Customization & Performance
Unified color presets (Classic, Aqua, Cosmic, Ember, Neon, Custom)
Independent opacity control for MA Ribbon and candles
Modular on/off controls for MA Ribbon and S/R components
Optimized plotting to remain within TradingView limits
Designed for stable performance across lower and higher timeframes
Intended Use
This indicator is designed to assist with chart interpretation and market structure analysis. It may help users:
Identify prevailing trend conditions
Observe price behavior around structurally relevant levels
Combine trend context with horizontal market structure
Reduce chart clutter by consolidating multiple concepts into one script
This indicator is not a trading strategy, does not provide financial advice, and should be used alongside independent analysis and appropriate risk management.
How to Use
1. Chart Setup
Add the indicator to any chart and timeframe.
Both the MA Ribbon and Support & Resistance systems are enabled by default and can be managed independently via the Master Controls section.
General guidance:
Higher timeframes for structural context
Lower timeframes for execution and refinement
Applicable across different markets and instruments
2. Using the MA Ribbon
The MA Ribbon visualizes trend direction and momentum context.
General interpretation:
Price above both MAs → bullish bias
Price below both MAs → bearish bias
Ribbon color reflects trend alignment
Ribbon compression may indicate consolidation or transition
Optional features include candle coloring, MA cross markers, and filtered continuation arrows.
Best practice:
Use the MA Ribbon to identify the market regime before reacting to support or resistance levels.
MA Ribbon – Minute-Based Timeframe Logic
Anchor Timeframe (Minutes)
Anchors MA calculations to a fixed timeframe expressed in minutes.
Examples:
60 = 1 hour
240 = 4 hours
0 = use current chart timeframe
How It Works
The anchor automatically scales MA lengths so that the same trend structure is preserved across different chart timeframes.
Example (Anchor = 60):
5-minute chart → follows 1-hour structure
15-minute chart → follows the same 1-hour structure
1-hour chart → standard calculation
Show Ribbon Only If Chart TF > Anchor
Optionally hides the MA Ribbon on chart timeframes lower than the anchor to reduce visual noise.
3. Using Support & Resistance Levels
Support and resistance levels are derived from pivot structures and update dynamically.
Level types:
Main Support / Resistance (most recent and relevant)
Strong Support / Resistance (confirmed pivots)
Additional historical levels (up to 12 total)
Usage guidelines:
Focus on price behavior around levels rather than exact prices
Combine level reactions with MA Ribbon trend context
Use strength filtering to reduce weaker levels
Heat map mode highlights frequently interacted zones
4. Combining Trend and Structure
The indicator is most effective when both systems are used together:
In uptrends, focus on reactions near support
In downtrends, focus on reactions near resistance
Breakouts are more relevant when aligned with trend context
Retests gain importance when structure and trend agree
Customization Tips
Use preset sensitivities (Scalp / Intraday / Swing) for quick setup
Enable MTF S/R to reference higher-timeframe structure
Adjust label size, offset, and precision for readability
Disable unused components to improve performance on lower-end systems
This combined view helps improve contextual clarity and reduce noise.
5. Alerts Usage
Alerts are optional and fully configurable.
Cooldown settings can be used to limit repeated notifications during ranging conditions.
All alerts are informational and should be visually validated.

Opening Range {basic}Introduction
Opening range {basic} is a clean and reliable indicator designed to help traders visualize the opening range of a trading session with minimal setup and visual clutter.
This version focuses on the core components of opening range analysis, making it ideal for traders who want a simple, effective framework for identifying early-session structure across futures, forex and crypto markets.
Description
The indicator automatically calculates the opening range high, low and midpoint over a user-defined opening window (5m, 15m, 30m or 60m) within a selected trading session (default: NY session).
During the opening range window, the indicator dynamically tracks price to form the range. Once the opening range is complete, the high, low and midpoint are extended forward for the remainder of the session, providing clear reference levels that can be used for bias, mean reversion or breakout-based decision making.
A shaded fill highlights the opening range area, with an optional size display showing the total range in price units. Styling and logic are intentionally simplified to keep the chart clean and easy to interpret.

S/R-Zones [SouthEast]Autro Support/ Resistance zones, drawn by default on 1 hr timeframe for last 3 months
Supply & Demand (MTF) [Bearly Invested]Overview
This multi-timeframe supply and demand zone indicator identifies institutional price areas using a unique "Last 2 Opposite Candles" methodology. Unlike traditional support/resistance indicators, this script detects zones by analyzing momentum-based impulse moves and marking the base formed by the last two opposite-colored candles before the displacement.
How It Works
Zone Detection Logic
The indicator identifies supply and demand zones through a four-step process:
Momentum Detection: Monitors for consecutive candles with body sizes exceeding the 20-period average body size by a configurable multiplier (default 0.5x)
Impulse Confirmation: When the required number of momentum candles (default: 4 candles within 4-bar span) is detected, the script identifies a potential impulse move
Base Identification: Looks back through all consecutive momentum bars, then scans up to 50 bars to find the last two opposite-colored candles that formed before the impulse
Zone Creation: Creates a supply/demand zone using the combined high and low of those two opposite candles
Multi-Timeframe Analysis
The indicator supports up to three simultaneous timeframes, allowing you to identify higher timeframe zones while trading on lower timeframes. Each timeframe independently calculates zones using its own momentum criteria, providing confluence when multiple timeframe zones align.
Zone Combination Feature
When "Combine Zones" is enabled, overlapping zones from different timeframes or detection instances are automatically merged into single zones. Combined zones display all contributing timeframes in the label (e.g., "15 Min & 30 Min").
Zone Management
Invalidation Methods
Choose between two zone invalidation approaches:
Wick: Zone remains valid until price wicks through the boundary
Close: Zone remains valid until a candle closes through the boundary
Zone Filtering
The script includes built-in filters to reduce noise:
Minimum zone size requirement (10 bars on detection timeframe)
Maximum zone size limit (1.5x ATR)
Minimum 5-bar cooldown between new zone detections
Distance-based filtering (zones beyond max lookback are hidden)
Key Features
Retest & Break Detection
Retests: Automatically marks when price retests an active zone with "R" labels
Breaks: Optionally displays "B" labels when zones are invalidated
Built-in cooldown system prevents label spam (5-bar minimum between retests)
Alert Conditions
Four alert types are included:
Supply Zone Retest
Demand Zone Retest
Supply Zone Break
Demand Zone Break
Configuration Guide
General Settings
Zone Count: High (30 zones), Medium (5), Low (3), or One (single most recent zone per type)
Momentum Count: Number of consecutive momentum candles required (default: 4)
Momentum Span: Maximum bars to scan for momentum confirmation (default: 4)
Max Lookback For Opposite Candles: How far back to search for base candles (default: 50)
Max Distance To Last Bar: Controls historical zone visibility (High: 1250 bars, Normal: 500, Low: 150)
Timeframe Configuration
Enable up to three timeframes simultaneously. When multiple timeframes show the same value (e.g., chart timeframe), duplicate detection automatically disables redundant calculations.
Visual Options
Customizable supply/demand colors with transparency
"Show Historic Zones" toggles visibility of broken/invalidated zones
Text color and label positioning controls
Combined zones display with increased opacity for emphasis
Best Practices
Timeframe Selection: Use higher timeframes (15m, 30m, 1H) for swing trades; lower timeframes work for scalping when combined with HTF confluence
Zone Invalidation: "Close" method reduces false breaks from wicks; "Wick" method is more conservative
Zone Count: Start with "Medium" or "Low" settings to avoid chart clutter, especially on lower timeframes
Momentum Parameters: Lower values (3-4) detect more zones; higher values (5-6) create stricter, higher-quality zones
Combine Zones: Enable this feature to merge overlapping multi-timeframe zones for cleaner charts and stronger confluence areas
Important Notes
Zones are calculated in real-time on the detection timeframe and displayed on your chart timeframe
The indicator looks back a maximum of 2000 bars for calculations
Maximum of 500 boxes/labels can be displayed simultaneously due to Pine Script limitations
Zones older than the "Max Distance" setting are automatically hidden but still tracked for break/retest detection
The "Last 2 Opposite Candles" method may produce zones of varying sizes depending on the range of those base candles

Institutional Confluence Mapper [JOAT]Institutional Confluence Mapper (ICM)
Introduction
The Institutional Confluence Mapper is an open-source multi-factor analysis tool that combines five analytical modules into a unified confluence scoring system. It synthesizes institutional trading concepts including Relative Rotation analysis, Smart Money flow detection, Liquidity zone mapping, Session-based timing, and Volatility regime classification.
Rather than relying on a single indicator, ICM evaluates market conditions through multiple lenses simultaneously, presenting a clear confluence score (0-100%) that reflects the alignment of various market factors.
This script is fully open-source under the Mozilla Public License 2.0.
Originality and Purpose
This indicator is NOT a random mashup of existing indicators. It is an original implementation that creates a unified institutional analysis framework:
Why Multiple Modules? Most retail traders struggle because they rely on single indicators that provide conflicting signals. Institutional traders evaluate markets through multiple frameworks simultaneously. ICM bridges this gap by providing a unified view of complementary analysis methods.
The Confluence Scoring System: Each module contributes to a weighted confluence score (0-100%). Scores above 65% indicate bullish confluence; below 35% indicates bearish confluence.
How Components Work Together:
RRG (Relative Rotation) determines macro bias - is this asset outperforming or underperforming its benchmark?
Institutional Flow confirms smart money activity - are institutions accumulating or distributing?
Volatility Regime determines strategy selection - trend-follow or mean-revert?
Liquidity Detection identifies key levels - where are the stop hunts happening?
Session Analysis optimizes timing - when should you trade?
The Five Core Modules
1. Relative Rotation Momentum Matrix (RRG)
Compares the current symbol against a benchmark (default: SPY) using the JdK RS-Ratio methodology with double-smoothed EMA. Assets rotate through four quadrants:
LEADING: Outperforming with positive momentum (strongest bullish)
WEAKENING: Outperforming but losing momentum
LAGGING: Underperforming with negative momentum (strongest bearish)
IMPROVING: Underperforming but gaining momentum
2. Institutional Flow Analysis
Analyzes volume patterns to detect smart money activity:
Volume Z-Score measures how unusual current volume is
Buy/Sell pressure estimation based on candle structure
Unusual volume detection highlights institutional activity
3. Volatility Regime System
Uses ATR percentile ranking to classify market conditions:
COMPRESSION: Low volatility (ATR < 20th percentile) - potential breakout
EXPANSION: High volatility (ATR > 80th percentile) - trending
TRENDING_BULL/BEAR: Directional trends based on EMA alignment
RANGING: Sideways consolidation
4. Liquidity Detection
Identifies institutional liquidity targets using swing point analysis:
Swing highs/lows are tracked and displayed as dashed lines
Purple dashed lines mark resistance/sell-side liquidity
Teal dashed lines mark support/buy-side liquidity
Gold diamonds appear when liquidity sweeps are detected (potential reversals)
5. Session Momentum Profiler
Tracks trading sessions based on your selected timezone:
Asian Session: 7PM - 4AM EST
London Session: 3AM - 12PM EST
New York Session: 9:30AM - 4PM EST
London/NY Overlap: 8AM - 12PM EST (peak liquidity)
Visual Elements
Main Dashboard (Top-Right):
BIAS: Overall direction with confluence percentage
RRG: Current quadrant and momentum
FLOW: Smart money bias and volume status
REGIME: Market condition and volatility percentile
SESSION: Active trading session and current time
LIQUIDITY: Active zones and grab signals
SIGNAL: Actionable recommendation
Chart Elements:
Gold Diamond: Liquidity grab (potential reversal point)
Teal Dashed Line: Support / Buy-side liquidity zone
Purple Dashed Line: Resistance / Sell-side liquidity zone
EMA 21/55/200: Trend structure with cloud fill
Volatility Bands: ATR-based channels
How to Use
Step 1: Check the BIAS row for overall market direction
Step 2: Check REGIME to understand market conditions
Step 3: Identify key levels using liquidity zones and EMAs
Step 4: Wait for confluence above 65% (bullish) or below 35% (bearish)
Step 5: Look for gold diamond signals at key levels
Best Setups
Bullish: Confluence >65%, RRG in LEADING/IMPROVING, bullish flow, price near teal support zone.
Bearish: Confluence <35%, RRG in LAGGING/WEAKENING, bearish flow, price near purple resistance zone.
Reversal: Gold diamond appears after price sweeps a liquidity zone.
Key Input Parameters
Benchmark Symbol: Compare against (default: SPY)
RS-Ratio/Momentum Lookback: RRG calculation periods
Volume Analysis Period: Flow detection lookback
Swing Length: Liquidity zone detection
ATR Period/Rank Period: Regime classification
Timezone: Session detection timezone
Alerts
Liquidity Grab Bull: Bullish sweep detected
Liquidity Grab Bear: Bearish sweep detected
High Confluence Bull: Confluence above 70%
High Confluence Bear: Confluence below 30%
Best Practices
Use on 1H, 4H, or Daily timeframes for reliable signals
Combine with price action for confirmation
Respect the regime - don't fight strong trends
Trade during London/NY overlap for best liquidity
Wait for high confluence scores before entering
Always use proper risk management
Limitations
Works best on liquid markets with sufficient volume
Session features optimized for forex/crypto markets
RRG requires a valid benchmark symbol
No indicator predicts the future - use proper risk management

DuoBlocks - ICT Order Block detectorDuoBlocks (ICT Order Block Detector)
(An ICT(Inner Circle Trading)-style Order Block(OB) tool that highlights only the most relevant and recent Demand/Supply zones using FVG and Engulfing based OB sources.)
Overview
DuoBlocks is an ICT-inspired Order Block detector that uses the mostly used two major order block types: FVG(Fair Value Gap) or Engulfing. There are many Order Block indicators out there, but I couldn’t find one that consistently highlights the most relevant, most recent OB relative to the current price without making the chart a mess and that's why so I built this script.
FVG-based OB (FVG-OB): OBs derived from 3-candle fair value gap logic.
Engulfing-based OB (Engulfing-OB): OBs derived from strong 2-candle reversal/displacement (engulf) logic.
Usage
FVG-OB (Fair Value Gap Order Blocks)
This script finds bullish/bearish FVGs and draws an Order Block zone from the candle that created the move. Think of these zones as your potential next support (bullish) and resistance (bearish) levels.
Engulfing-OB (Engulfing Order Blocks)
This script also finds strong bullish/bearish engulfing candles and draws an Order Block zone from the candle that got engulfed.
Same idea: treat them as potential next support (bullish) and resistance (bearish) levels.
**Use these zones like “next level” support/resistance areas. Don’t blindly buy/sell—wait for your own confirmation and manage risk properly.
Settings
Show FVG-OB
Toggle display of the selected FVG-based bullish/bearish OB (one per side).
Show Engulfing-OB
Toggle display of the selected Engulfing-based bullish/bearish OB (one per side).
Max Invalidation Attempts (FVG OB or Engulf OB)
Controls how many separate breach events a stored OB can absorb before it is marked invalid (discarded). The counting happens when either of below occurs.
Bullish OB: price prints a low below the OB bottom.
Bearish OB: price prints a high above the OB top.
Each time this happens, the OB’s invalidation counter increments by +1.
Once the counter reaches your Max Attempts, that OB is flagged as no longer live, so it will stop being eligible for selection. Then the script automatically falls through to the next best/next nearest valid OB in memory.
Right Extend (bars)
How far to extend the selected OB boxes to the right.
Lookback bars
Maximum historical bars scanned for detection. Lower values = faster/cleaner, higher values = more history retained.
Max stored OB per side
Maximum stored bullish and bearish OBs in memory (per source).
Bullish/Bearish OB Color
Controls border/midline coloring for bullish and bearish zones.
Disclaimer
This script is for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice or investment recommendations. Trading cryptocurrencies and other financial instruments involves significant risk, and you are solely responsible for your own decisions based on your financial situation, objectives, and risk tolerance. The author assumes no liability for losses arising from the use of this indicator.
NSDT LatticeThis script automatically detects the Open price once the Futures markets open (6PM Eastern Time) and plots Support/Resistance levels based on the "Ticks Between Levels" that the trader enters in the settings.
The trader can also chose to set their own Custom Start Price should they wish to. For example: If they want to use the New York session Open price (for RTH) instead of the Asia session Open price (ETH).
You can change the colors and thickness of the lines, as well as the numbers of levels plotted.
Support and Resistance Breakout Signals [MarkitTick]💡 This indicator provides a comprehensive, automated system for identifying, tracking, and trading Support and Resistance (S/R) breakouts. By synthesizing classic Swing High and Swing Low pivot analysis with Multi-Timeframe (HTF) capabilities and Volume confirmation, it transforms raw price action into actionable structural data. It is designed to declutter charts by automatically managing active levels and highlighting significant market structure shifts (Higher Highs, Lower Lows) alongside verified breakout signals.
✨ Originality and Utility
While many indicators draw static pivot points, this tool distinguishes itself through "State Management." It treats Support and Resistance not just as historical markers, but as active zones that evolve.
Dynamic Level Management: Instead of flooding the chart with infinite lines, the script uses arrays to store a specific number of recent levels. As price action progresses, invalid or broken levels are removed or updated, keeping the analysis focused on current relevance.
Multi-Timeframe Confluence: Uniquely, it allows you to overlay higher timeframe support and resistance levels (e.g., Daily levels on a 4-hours chart) without changing your chart view, enabling top-down analysis instantly.
Market Structure Labeling: It automatically tags pivot points with Dow Theory labels (HH, LH, LL, HL), aiding traders in instantly recognizing trend direction without manual charting.
🔬 Methodology and Concepts
The script operates on three core technical pillars:
● Swing Pivot Detection
The foundation is the detection of local extrema using a "Left/Right" bar lookback mechanism. A Swing High is identified when a high is greater than the L bars preceding it and the R bars following it. This confirms a fractal peak or valley.
Note on Confirmation: Because the script waits for R bars to close to confirm a pivot, the lines appear retroactively. However, the extension of these lines and subsequent breakout signals occur in real-time.
● Breakout Logic with Volume Integration
A breakout is triggered when the Close price crosses an active S/R line.
Resistance Break: Current Close > Resistance Level (and Previous Close ≤ Level).
Support Break: Current Close < Support Level (and Previous Close ≥ Level).
Volume Confirmation: An optional filter requires the breakout bar's volume to exceed a Moving Average of volume, ensuring momentum backs the move.
● Time Decay
To mimic the reduced relevance of stale levels, the script includes a "Time Decay" feature. If a level is not interacted with for a user-defined number of bars, it is automatically purged from the system, ensuring the chart reflects only fresh interest levels.
🎨 Visual Guide
The indicator uses a specific color-coding and labeling system to convey information quickly:
● Support & Resistance Lines
Red Lines (Thin): Represent active Resistance levels on the current timeframe.
Green Lines (Thin): Represent active Support levels on the current timeframe.
Fuchsia Lines (Thick): Represent Higher Timeframe (HTF) Resistance levels.
Aqua Lines (Thick): Represent Higher Timeframe (HTF) Support levels.
● Market Structure Labels
Located at the pivot points, these text labels define the trend structure:
HH / LH: Higher High / Lower High (Red Text).
LL / HL: Lower Low / Higher Low (Green/Aqua Text).
HTF-R / HTF-S: Indicates major structural pivots from the higher timeframe.
● Breakout Signals
When a valid break occurs, a label appears above or below the bar:
Blue Triangle Up (▲): Bullish breakout through resistance.
Blue Triangle Down (▼): Bearish breakout through support.
Number in Label: Indicates the cumulative count of breaks for that specific trend sequence (e.g., "1" is the first break, "2" is the second).
The breakout count represents the intensity of the move. A reading greater than 1 signals exceptional market strength, indicating the penetration of multiple Key Levels (Support or Resistance) within a single candle.
📖 How to Use
Trend Continuation: In an uptrend (sequence of HH/HL), wait for a Blue Triangle Up (▲) occurring at a Red Resistance line. This signals the continuation of the trend.
Trend Reversal: Watch for a "Structure Break." If price is making Higher Highs, but then breaks a Green Support line (generating a ▼ signal) and forms a Lower Low (LL), the trend may be reversing.
HTF "Bounce" Plays: Use the thick Fuchsia/Aqua lines as major zones. If price approaches a thick Aqua line (HTF Support) and fails to break it, look for LTF bullish structure (HH/HL) to form for an entry.
Volume Filtering: Enable the "Volume Confirmation" setting to filter out "fakeouts" (breaks on low volume).
⚙️ Inputs and Settings
● Swing Settings
Left/Right Bars: Determines the sensitivity of the pivot detection. Higher numbers = fewer, more significant pivots.
Max Stored Levels: How many S/R lines to keep in memory at once.
Max Break Labels: Limits visual clutter by capping the number of signal labels.
● Usability & HTF
Enable Time Decay: If true, deletes lines that are older than "Decay Period" bars.
Enable HTF Levels: Toggles the display of higher timeframe pivots.
HTF Timeframe: Select the specific timeframe for the macro view (e.g., "D" for Daily).
● Analysis
Volume Confirmation: Toggles the requirement for volume to be above its average for a signal to fire.
Show Market Structure: Toggles the HH/LL text labels.
🔍 Deconstruction of the Underlying Scientific and Academic Framework
The script's logic is rooted in Fractal Geometry and Auction Market Theory .
● Mandelbrot's Fractals: The use of `leftBars` and `rightBars` is a direct application of identifying market fractals. Markets are self-similar across timeframes; a pivot on a 5-minute chart is structurally identical to one on a Weekly chart. This script exploits this property by allowing nested timeframe analysis (LTF inside HTF).
● Memory of Price (Behavioral Finance): Support and resistance lines represent zones where market participants have previously established value (Price Memory). The "Breakout" signal is mathematically significant because it represents a shift in the supply/demand equilibrium. When price closes beyond a stored array value (the pivot price), it signifies that the aggressive limit orders that created the pivot have been exhausted or withdrawn, validating a new search for value.
