Price Ranged FVG📌 Price Ranged FVG
Is a clean and efficient tool designed to detect Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) with adjustable filters and structural context. It’s especially useful for traders looking to filter out insignificant gaps and focus on high-probability areas, particularly around swing breaks or structural shifts.
🧠 What is a Fair Value Gap (FVG)?
A Fair Value Gap appears when there’s a price imbalance between candles — typically after a strong move — where the market skips over certain price levels without trading there. These zones can act as potential areas for price to return to (mean reversion), or serve as support/resistance depending on market structure.
🔍 FVG Detection Types
You can choose between three different detection modes under the "FVG Detection" input:
Same Type: Only detects FVGs where the last 3 candles are in the same direction (all bullish or all bearish).
All: Detects any FVG, regardless of candle direction.
Twin Close: Detects FVGs only when the last two candles are in the same direction and close accordingly — offering a stricter confirmation.
🎯 FVG % Filters
To filter out noise or insignificant gaps, this indicator includes:
Minimum FVG % Filter: Ignores FVGs smaller than your specified percentage of the current close.
Maximum FVG % Filter: Ignores overly large gaps that may be unreliable or caused by anomalies.
These filters help focus on relevant FVGs that are more likely to act as reaction zones.
🏛 Structural Context (Swing Highs and Lows)
The indicator plots swing highs and swing lows with dots to provide structure-based context:
Set Swing Strength to 3 for detecting internal structure (shorter-term moves).
Use a higher setting like 5 to focus on external structure (more significant highs/lows).
These levels can help you determine whether an FVG is forming within a consolidation, breakout, or key structural transition.
✅ Use Case (My Personal Workflow)
I personally use this indicator to:
Filter out weak or irrelevant FVGs using the % filters.
Watch for price interaction at swing breaks — especially when an FVG aligns with a break in internal or external structure.
Refine entry and exit planning in confluence with other tools or strategies.

Automatic background highlighting when strong trends are detected
Use this tool to confirm market momentum, avoid sideways chop, and enhance your entry timing for breakout or pullback setups.
Active PMI Support/Resistance Levels [EdgeTerminal]The PMI Support & Resistance indicator revolutionizes traditional technical analysis by using Pointwise Mutual Information (PMI) - a statistical measure from information theory - to objectively identify support and resistance levels. Unlike conventional methods that rely on visual pattern recognition, this indicator provides mathematically rigorous, quantifiable evidence of price levels where significant market activity occurs.
- The Mathematical Foundation: Pointwise Mutual Information
Pointwise Mutual Information measures how much more likely two events are to occur together compared to if they were statistically independent. In our context:
Event A: Volume spikes occurring (high trading activity)
Event B: Price being at specific levels
The PMI formula calculates: PMI = log(P(A,B) / (P(A) × P(B)))
Where:
P(A,B) = Probability of volume spikes occurring at specific price levels
P(A) = Probability of volume spikes occurring anywhere
P(B) = Probability of price being at specific levels
High PMI scores indicate that volume spikes and certain price levels co-occur much more frequently than random chance would predict, revealing genuine support and resistance zones.
- Why PMI Outperforms Traditional Methods
Subjective interpretation: What one trader sees as significant, another might ignore
Confirmation bias: Tendency to see patterns that confirm existing beliefs
Inconsistent criteria: No standardized definition of "significant" volume or price action
Static analysis: Doesn't adapt to changing market conditions
No strength measurement: Can't quantify how "strong" a level truly is
PMI Advantages:
✅ Objective & Quantifiable: Mathematical proof of significance, not visual guesswork
✅ Statistical Rigor: Levels backed by information theory and probability
✅ Strength Scoring: PMI scores rank levels by statistical significance
✅ Adaptive: Automatically adjusts to different market volatility regimes
✅ Eliminates Bias: Computer-calculated, removing human interpretation errors
✅ Market Structure Aware: Reveals the underlying order flow concentrations
- How It Works
Data Processing Pipeline:
Volume Analysis: Identifies volume spikes using configurable thresholds
Price Binning: Divides price range into discrete levels for analysis
Co-occurrence Calculation: Measures how often volume spikes happen at each price level
PMI Computation: Calculates statistical significance for each price level
Level Filtering: Shows only levels exceeding minimum PMI thresholds
Dynamic Updates: Refreshes levels periodically while maintaining historical traces
Visual System:
Current Levels: Bright, thick lines with PMI scores - your actionable levels
Historical Traces: Faded previous levels showing market structure evolution
Strength Tiers: Line styles indicate PMI strength (solid/dashed/dotted)
Color Coding: Green for support, red for resistance

- Key Warning Signs & What to Watch For
Red Flags:
🚨 Very Low PMI Scores (<0.3): Weak statistical significance, avoid trading
🚨 No Volume Confirmation: PMI level without recent volume spikes may be stale
🚨 Overcrowded Levels: Too many levels close together suggests poor parameter tuning
🚨 Outdated Levels: Historical traces are reference only, not tradeable
Optimization Tips:
✅ Regular Recalibration: Adjust parameters monthly based on market regime changes
✅ Volume Context: Always check for recent volume activity at PMI levels
✅ Multiple Timeframes: Confirm PMI levels across different timeframes
✅ Market Conditions: Higher thresholds during high volatility periods
Interpreting PMI Scores
PMI Score Ranges:
0.5-1.0: Moderate statistical significance, proceed with caution
1.0-1.5: Good significance, reliable for most trading strategies
1.5-2.0: Strong significance, high-confidence trade setups
2.0+: Very strong significance, institutional-grade levels
Historical Context: The historical trace system shows how support and resistance evolve over time. When current levels align with multiple historical traces, it indicates persistent market memory at those prices, significantly increasing the level's reliability.

[GalihRidha] Scalping Dashboard 5m Scalping Dashboard 5m is a practical, real-time, and user-friendly indicator designed for 5-minute intraday scalping strategies. This indicator provides clear, actionable signals along with dynamic risk management levels, all visualized in a single vertical dashboard on your chart.
Key Features:
Actionable Next Signal:
Generates a strong, easy-to-follow trading signal ("LONG" or "SHORT") every 5 minutes, based on a multi-factor algorithm (MA20/MA50 trend, RSI, price/volume strength, candle momentum, and market structure).
Dynamic TP/SL Calculation:
Automatically displays recommended Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) price ranges, calculated from recent price action, support/resistance, and volatility (ATR).
Vertical Dashboard Layout:
Information is neatly split between "LAST SECTION" (your most recent executed signal, TP, and SL) and "NEXT SECTION" (real-time signal, recommended TP/SL, and current price). Perfectly formatted for both desktop and mobile TradingView use.
Live "Capturing" Status:
When a new signal is forming (1 minute before candle close), the dashboard shows an animated "Capturing..." status—so you always know when the indicator is preparing the next actionable trade.
Buffered Signal Logic:
Prevents “signal repainting” by ensuring that your "Last Signal" and TP/SL levels are exactly what was shown in the previous Next Signal, never the recalculated value from a new bar. This is vital for honest backtesting and live trade confidence.
Zero Lag, Mobile Ready:
Designed to be lightweight and responsive, with instant dashboard updates and no visual lag—even on slower connections or when switching timeframes.
No repaint, no lagging, pure price action + volatility logic.
How to Use:
Add to Chart
Apply the indicator to any liquid crypto or forex pair on the 5-minute (5m) timeframe.
Watch the Dashboard
1 minute before the close of each 5-minute candle, the "Next Signal" section will activate.
"Capturing..." status (with animated dots) means a new entry signal is forming.
Use the suggested Entry, TP Range, and SL for your scalping strategy.
Follow the Signal
When "Next Signal" appears, you have 1 minute to enter the trade if desired.
After the signal passes, the values are locked into the "Last Section" for reference, record-keeping, or trade management.
Mobile Friendly
The vertical format ensures the dashboard is always visible and readable on both web and mobile versions of TradingView.
No need to manually refresh or guess when a new signal is forming—just watch for "Capturing..."!

This dashboard solves that problem by giving you everything you need for quick, clear, and confident trading—all in one place, with true buffer logic so your entries and results are always honest and reproducible.
Happy scalping and stay disciplined—let the dashboard do the heavy lifting for you! 🚀
Staccked SMA - Regime Switching & Persistance StatisticsThis indicator is designed to identify the prevailing market regime by analyzing the behavior of a "stack" of Simple Moving Averages (SMAs). It helps you understand whether the market is currently trending, mean-reverting, or moving randomly.
Core Concept: SMA Correlation
At its heart, the indicator examines the relationship between a set of nine SMAs with different lengths (3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144) and the lengths themselves.
In a strong trending market (either up or down), the SMAs will be neatly "stacked" in order of their length. The shortest SMA will be furthest from the longest SMA, creating a strong, almost linear visual pattern. When we measure the statistical correlation between the SMA values and their corresponding lengths, we get a value close to +1 (perfect uptrend stack) or -1 (perfect downtrend stack). The absolute value of this correlation will be very high (close to 1).
In a mean-reverting or sideways market, the SMAs will be tangled and crisscrossing each other. There is no clear order, and the relationship between an SMA's length and its price value is weak. The correlation will be close to 0.
This indicator calculates this Pearson correlation on every bar, giving a continuous measure of how ordered or "trendy" the SMAs are. An absolute correlation above 0.8 is considered strongly trending, while a value between 0.4 and 0.8 suggests a mean-reverting character. Below 0.4, the market is likely random or choppy.
Regime Classification and Statistics
The indicator doesn't just look at the current correlation; it analyzes its behavior over a user-defined lookback window (default is 252 bars) to classify the overall market "regime."
It presents its findings in a clear table:
📊 |SMA Correlation| Regime Table: This main table provides a snapshot of the current market character.
Median: Shows the median absolute correlation over the lookback period, giving a central tendency of the market's behavior.
% > 0.80: The percentage of time the market was in a strong trend during the lookback period.
% < 0.80 & > 0.40: The percentage of time the market showed mean-reverting characteristics.
🧠 Regime: The final classification. It's labeled "📈 Trend-Dominant" if the median correlation is high and it has spent a significant portion of the time trending. It's labeled "🔄 Mean-Reverting" if the median is in the middle range and it has spent significant time in that state. Otherwise, it's considered "⚖️ Random/ Choppy".
📐 Regime Significance: This tells you how statistically confident you can be in the current regime classification, using a Z-score to compare its occurrence against random chance. ⭐⭐⭐ indicates high confidence (99%), while "❌ Not Significant" means the pattern could be random.
Regime Transition Probabilities
Optionally, a second table can be displayed that shows the historical probability of the market transitioning from one regime to another over different time horizons (t+5, t+10, t+15, and t+20 bars).
📈 → 🔄 → ⚖️ Transition Table: This table answers questions like, "If the market is trending now (From: 📈), what is the probability it will be mean-reverting (→ 🔄) in 10 bars?"
This provides powerful insights into the market's cyclical nature, helping you anticipate future behavior based on past patterns. For example, you might find that after a period of strong trending, a transition to a choppy state is more likely than a direct switch to a mean-reverting
Indicator Settings
Lookback Window for Regime Classification: This sets the number of recent bars (default is 252) the script analyzes to determine the current market regime (Trending, Mean-Reverting, or Random). A larger number provides a more stable, long-term view, while a smaller number makes the classification more sensitive to recent price action.
Show Regime Transition Table: A simple toggle (on/off) to show or hide the table that displays the probabilities of the market switching from one regime to another.
Lookback Offset for Starting Regime: This determines the "starting point" in the past for calculating regime transitions. The default is 20 bars ago. The script looks at the regime at this point and then checks what it became at later points.
Step 1, 2, 3, 4 Offset (bars): These define the future time intervals (5, 10, 15, and 20 bars by default) for the transition probability table. For example, the script checks the regime at the "Lookback Offset" and then sees what it transitioned to 5, 10, 15, and 20 bars later.
Significance Filter Settings
Use Regime Significance Filter: When enabled, this filter ensures that the regime transition statistics only count transitions that were "statistically significant." This helps to filter out noise and focus on more reliable patterns.
Min Stars Required (1=90%, 2=95%, 3=99%): This sets the minimum confidence level required for a regime to be included in the transition statistics when the significance filter is on.
1 ⭐: Requires at least 90% confidence.
2 ⭐⭐: Requires at least 95% confidence (default).
3 ⭐⭐⭐: Requires at least 99% confidence.
EMA-Pack MTFEMA-Pack MTF
This TradingView Pine Script defines a custom indicator called "EMA-Pack MTF" that overlays various types of moving averages and Bollinger Bands across multiple timeframes on a chart. It begins by importing the built-in technical analysis library and defining a custom ma function that calculates several types of moving averages (SMA, EMA, TEMA, DEMA, HMA, and ALMA) based on user input. The ema function is the core logic, retrieving market data for the specified timeframe and calculating fast, mid, slow, 50, 100, and 200-period moving averages along with Bollinger Band components (basis, upper, and lower bands). The function adjusts values to the nearest valid price tick and returns them.
User input fields allow customization of timeframes, source data, moving average types, and Bollinger Band parameters. The script calls the ema function for each selected timeframe (1 minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, and 1 day), storing their respective computed values. It then plots the calculated moving averages and Bollinger Band basis lines on the chart, using different colors and line widths to distinguish between them. Some plots are hidden by default (display.none) to reduce chart clutter. This script is useful for multi-timeframe trend analysis using customizable moving averages and Bollinger Bands.
Alpha - Combined BreakoutThis Pine Script indicator, "Alpha - Combined Breakout," is a combination between Smart Money Breakout Signals and UT Bot Alert, The UT Bot Alert indicator was initially developer by Yo_adriiiiaan
The idea of original code belongs HPotter.
This Indicator helps you identify potential trading opportunities by combining two distinct strategies: Smart Money Breakout and a modified UT Bot (likely a variation of the Ultimate Trend Bot). It provides visual signals, draws lines for potential take profit (TP) and stop loss (SL) levels, and includes a dashboard to track performance metrics.
Tutorial:
Understanding and Using the "Alpha - Combined Breakout" Indicator
This indicator is designed for traders looking for confirmation of market direction and potential entry/exit points by blending structural analysis with a trend-following oscillator.
How it Works (General Concept)
The indicator combines two main components:
Smart Money Breakout: This part identifies significant breaks in market structure, which "smart money" traders often use to gauge shifts in supply and demand. It looks for higher highs/lows or lower highs/lows and flags when these structural points are broken.
UT Bot: This is a trend-following component that generates buy and sell signals based on price action relative to an Average True Range (ATR) based trailing stop.
You can choose to use these signals independently or combined to generate trading alerts and visual cues on your chart. The dashboard provides a quick overview of how well the signals are performing based on your chosen settings and display mode.
Parameters and What They Do
Let's break down each input parameter:
1. Smart Money Inputs
These settings control how the indicator identifies market structure and breakouts.
swingSize (Market Structure Time-Horizon):
What it does: This integer value defines the number of candles used to identify significant "swing" (pivot) points—highs and lows.
Effect: A larger swingSize creates a smoother market structure, focusing on longer-term trends. This means signals might appear less frequently and with some delay but could be more reliable for higher timeframes or broader market movements. A smaller swingSize will pick up more minor market structure changes, leading to more frequent but potentially noisier signals, suitable for lower timeframes or scalping.
Analogy: Think of it like a zoom level on your market structure map. Higher values zoom out, showing only major mountain ranges. Lower values zoom in, showing every hill and bump.
bosConfType (BOS Confirmation Type):
What it does: This string input determines how a Break of Structure (BOS) is confirmed. You have two options:
'Candle Close': A breakout is confirmed only if a candle's closing price surpasses the previous swing high (for bullish) or swing low (for bearish).
'Wicks': A breakout is confirmed if any part of the candle (including its wick) surpasses the previous swing high or low.
Effect: 'Candle Close' provides stronger, more conservative confirmation, as it implies sustained price movement beyond the structure. 'Wicks' provides earlier, more aggressive signals, as it captures momentary breaches of the structure.
Analogy: Imagine a wall. 'Candle Close' means the whole person must get over the wall. 'Wicks' means even a finger touching over the top counts as a breach.
choch (Show CHoCH):
What it does: A boolean (true/false) input to enable or disable the display of "Change of Character" (CHoCH) labels. CHoCH indicates the first structural break against the current dominant trend.
Effect: When true, it helps identify early signs of a potential trend reversal, as it marks where the market's "character" (its tendency to make higher highs/lows or lower lows/highs) first changes.
BULL (Bullish Color) & BEAR (Bearish Color):
What they do: These color inputs allow you to customize the visual appearance of bullish and bearish signals and lines drawn by the Smart Money component.
Effect: Purely cosmetic, helps with visual identification on the chart.
sm_tp_sl_multiplier (SM TP/SL Multiplier (ATR)):
What it does: A float value that acts as a multiplier for the Average True Range (ATR) to calculate the Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) levels specifically when you're in "Smart Money Only" mode. It uses the ATR calculated by the UT Bot's nLoss_ut as its base.
Effect: A higher multiplier creates wider TP/SL levels, potentially leading to fewer trades but larger wins/losses. A lower multiplier creates tighter TP/SL levels, potentially leading to more frequent but smaller wins/losses.
2. UT Bot Alerts Inputs
These parameters control the behavior and sensitivity of the UT Bot component.
a_ut (UT Key Value (Sensitivity)):
What it does: This integer value adjusts the sensitivity of the UT Bot.
Effect: A higher value makes the UT Bot less sensitive to price fluctuations, resulting in fewer and potentially more reliable signals. A lower value makes it more sensitive, generating more signals, which can include more false signals.
Analogy: Like a noise filter. Higher values filter out more noise, keeping only strong signals.
c_ut (UT ATR Period):
What it does: This integer sets the look-back period for the Average True Range (ATR) calculation used by the UT Bot. ATR measures market volatility.
Effect: This period directly influences the calculation of the nLoss_ut (which is a_ut * xATR_ut), thus defining the distance of the trailing stop loss and take profit levels. A longer period makes the ATR smoother and less reactive to sudden price spikes. A shorter period makes it more responsive.
h_ut (UT Signals from Heikin Ashi Candles):
What it does: A boolean (true/false) input to determine if the UT Bot calculations should use standard candlestick data or Heikin Ashi candlestick data.
Effect: Heikin Ashi candles smooth out price action, often making trends clearer and reducing noise. Using them for UT Bot signals can lead to smoother, potentially delayed signals that stay with a trend longer. Standard candles are more reactive to raw price changes.
3. Line Drawing Control Buttons
These crucial boolean inputs determine which type of signals will trigger the drawing of TP/SL/Entry lines and flags on your chart. They act as a priority system.
drawLinesUtOnly (Draw Lines: UT Only):
What it does: If checked (true), lines and flags will only be drawn when the UT Bot generates a buy/sell signal.
Effect: Isolates UT Bot signals for visual analysis.
drawLinesSmartMoneyOnly (Draw Lines: Smart Money Only):
What it does: If checked (true), lines and flags will only be drawn when the Smart Money Breakout logic generates a bullish/bearish breakout.
Effect: Overrides drawLinesUtOnly if both are checked. Isolates Smart Money signals.
drawLinesCombined (Draw Lines: UT & Smart Money (Combined)):
What it does: If checked (true), lines and flags will only be drawn when both a UT Bot signal AND a Smart Money Breakout signal occur on the same bar.
Effect: Overrides both drawLinesUtOnly and drawLinesSmartMoneyOnly if checked. Provides the strictest entry criteria for line drawing, looking for strong confluence.
Dashboard Metrics Explained
The dashboard provides performance statistics based on the lines drawing control button selected. For example, if "Draw Lines: UT Only" is active, the dashboard will show stats only for UT Bot signals.
Total Signals: The total number of buy or sell signals generated by the selected drawing mode.
TP1 Win Rate: The percentage of signals where the price reached Take Profit 1 (TP1) before hitting the Stop Loss.
TP2 Win Rate: The percentage of signals where the price reached Take Profit 2 (TP2) before hitting the Stop Loss.
TP3 Win Rate: The percentage of signals where the price reached Take Profit 3 (TP3) before hitting the Stop Loss. (Note: TP1, TP2, TP3 are in order of distance from entry, with TP3 being furthest.)
SL before any TP rate: This crucial metric shows the number of times the Stop Loss was hit / the percentage of total signals where the stop loss was triggered before any of the three Take Profit levels were reached. This gives you a clear picture of how often a trade resulted in a loss without ever moving into profit target territory.

For Smart Money only: Uncheck "Draw Lines: UT Only" and "Draw Lines: UT & Smart Money (Combined)". Ensure "Draw Lines: Smart Money Only" is checked.
For Combined Signals: Check "Draw Lines: UT & Smart Money (Combined)". This will override the other two.
Adjust Parameters:
Start with default settings. Observe how the signals appear on your chosen asset and timeframe.
Refine Smart Money: If you see too many "noisy" market structure breaks, increase swingSize. If you want earlier breakouts, try "Wicks" for bosConfType.
Refine UT Bot: Adjust a_ut (Sensitivity) to get more or fewer UT Bot signals. Change c_ut (ATR Period) if you want larger or smaller TP/SL distances. Experiment with h_ut to see if Heikin Ashi smoothing suits your trading style.
Adjust TP/SL Multiplier: If using "Smart Money Only" mode, fine-tune sm_tp_sl_multiplier to set appropriate risk/reward levels.
Interpret Signals & Lines:
Buy/Sell Flags: These indicate the presence of a signal based on your selected drawing mode.
Entry Line (Blue Solid): This is where the signal was generated (usually the close price of the signal candle).
SL Line (Red/Green Solid): Your calculated stop loss level.
TP Lines (Dashed): Your three calculated take profit levels (TP1, TP2, TP3, where TP3 is the furthest target).
Smart Money Lines (BOS/CHoCH): These lines indicate horizontal levels where market structure breaks occurred. CHoCH labels might appear at the first structural break against the prior trend.
Monitor Dashboard: Pay attention to the dashboard in the top right corner. This dynamically updates to show the win rates for each TP and, crucially, the "SL before any TP rate." Use these statistics to evaluate the effectiveness of the indicator's signals under your current settings and chosen mode.
*
Set Alerts (Optional): You can set up alerts for any of the specific signals (UT Bot Long/Short, Smart Money Bullish/Bearish, or the "Line Draw" combined signals) to notify you when they occur, even if you're not actively watching the chart.
By following this tutorial, you'll be able to effectively use and customize the "Alpha - Combined Breakout" indicator to suit your trading strategy.

• 🧭 Trend Validation: Uses volume-based trend conditions and short-term EMA positioning to further qualify signals and eliminate noise.
How to Use:
This indicator is designed to help traders visualize confluence between key institutional price levels, momentum shifts, and volume-based pressure points. Long/short opportunities can be explored at marked reversal diamonds or liquidation zones that align with key GP levels. Intended for use on higher timeframes (15m to 4H), though flexible across any pair or market.
HL/OL Histogram + (Close-Open)🧠 Core Concept
This indicator is designed to detect meaningful directional intent in price action using a combination of:
Intrabar candle structure (high - open, open - low)
Net price momentum (close - open)
Timed trigger levels (frozen buy/sell prices based on selected timeframe closes)
The core idea is to visually separate bullish and bearish energy in the current bar, and to mark the price at which momentum flips from down to up or vice versa, based on a change in the close - open differential.
🔍 Components Breakdown
1. Histogram Bars
Green Bars (high - open): Represent bullish upper wicks, showing intrabar strength above the open.
Red Bars (open - low): Represent bearish lower wicks, showing pressure below the open.
Plotted as histograms above and below the zero line.
2. Close–Open Line (White)
Plots the difference between close and open for each bar.
Helps you visually track when momentum flips from negative to positive, or vice versa.
A bold black zero line provides clear reference for these flips.
3. Buy/Sell Signal Logic
A Buy Trigger is generated when close - open crosses above zero
A Sell Trigger occurs when close - open crosses below zero
These trigger events are one-shot, meaning they’re only registered once per signal direction. No retriggers occur until the opposite condition is met.
📈 Trigger Price Table (Static)
On a signal trigger, the close price from a lower timeframe (15S, 30S, 1, 2, 3, or 5 min) is captured.
This price is frozen and displayed in a table at the top-right of the pane.
The price remains fixed until the opposite trigger condition fires, at which point it is replaced.
Why close price?
Using the close from the lower timeframe gives a precise, decisive reference point — ideal for planning limit entries or confirming breakout commitment.
🛠️ Use Cases
Momentum traders can use the histogram and line to time entries after strong open rejection or close breakouts.
Scalpers can quickly gauge intrabar sentiment reversals and react to new momentum without waiting for candle closes.
Algo builders can use the frozen price logic as precise entry or confirmation points in automated strategies.

Range Breakout [sgbpulse]Range Breakout
1. Overview
The "Range Breakout " indicator is a powerful tool designed to identify and visually display price ranges on your chart using pivot points. It dynamically draws two distinct boxes – an External Range and an Internal Range – helping traders pinpoint potential support and resistance zones. Beyond its visual representation, the indicator offers a comprehensive set of 12 unique breakout alerts, providing real-time notifications for significant price movements outside these defined ranges. Additionally, it integrates RSI and MFI metrics for momentum confirmation.
2. How It Works
The indicator operates by identifying pivot points based on user-defined "left" and "right" bar lengths. A high pivot is a bar with a specified number of lower highs both to its left and right, and similarly for a low pivot.
External Range: Calculated using longer pivot lengths (default: 15 bars left, 6 bars right). This range represents broader, more significant price consolidation areas.
Internal Range: Calculated using shorter pivot lengths (default: 4 bars left, 3 bars right). This range captures tighter, more immediate price consolidations within the broader trend.
The External Range will always be greater than or equal to the Internal Range, as it's based on a wider historical context. Both ranges are displayed as transparent boxes on your chart, dynamically adjusting as new pivots are formed.
3. Key Features and Settings
Customizable Pivot Lengths:
External Range (Left/Right Bars): Adjust sensitivity for identifying the broader price range. Longer lengths lead to more stable, but less frequent, range updates.
Internal Range (Left/Right Bars): Adjust sensitivity for the tighter, more immediate price range.
Tool Tips: Minimum 6 bars for the External Range, and minimum 2 bars for the Internal Range.
Customizable Range Colors: Easily change the background colors of the External and Internal Range boxes to match your chart's aesthetic.
Dynamic Range Display: The indicator automatically updates the range boxes as new pivot highs and lows are formed, always presenting the most current valid ranges.
RSI / MFI Settings:
Timeframe Source: Select the timeframe for RSI and MFI calculation.
- Chart: Calculation based on the current chart timeframe.
- Daily: Always calculated based on the daily ("D") timeframe, even if the chart is on a lower timeframe.
RSI Length: Period length for RSI calculation (default: 14).
RSI Overbought Level: Overbought level for RSI (default: 70.0).
RSI Oversold Level: Oversold level for RSI (default: 30.0).
MFI Length: Period length for MFI calculation (default: 14).
MFI Overbought Level: Overbought level for MFI (default: 80.0).
MFI Oversold Level: Oversold level for MFI (default: 20.0).
4. Synergy of Ranges & Breakout Strength
The interaction between the External and Internal Ranges provides deep insights into price movement and breakout strength:
Immediate Direction: The movement of the Internal Range (up or down) indicates the short-term directional bias within the broader framework of the External Range.
Strength Confirmation: A breakout of the External Range, followed by a breakout of the Internal Range, confirms the strength of the move and increases confidence in the breakout.
Strong Momentum ("Leaving" Ranges Behind): When price breaks out with exceptionally strong momentum, it continues to move aggressively and does not immediately form new pivots. In such situations, the existing ranges (External and Internal) remain in place while the candles "leave them behind." A "Full Candle" breakout, where the entire candle moves past both ranges, indicates a particularly powerful and decisive move.
Momentum (RSI / MFI) as Confirmation:
- RSI (Relative Strength Index): Measures the speed and change of price movements. Extreme values (above 70 or below 30) indicate overbought/oversold conditions respectively, confirming strong momentum in a breakout.
- MFI (Money Flow Index): Similar to RSI but incorporates volume. Extreme values (above 80 or below 20) indicate strong money flow in/out, reinforcing breakout confirmation.
- Importance of Confirmation: If a breakout occurs but momentum indicators do not confirm it (for example, an upside breakout while RSI is declining), this could signal weakness in the move and the risk of a false breakout (Fakeout).
5. Visuals
The indicator provides clear visual representations on the chart:
Range Boxes:
Two dynamic boxes are drawn on the chart: one for the External Range and one for the Internal Range.
These boxes update continuously, displaying the current range boundaries based on the latest pivots. They provide an immediate visual indication of support and resistance levels.
RSI/MFI Status Labels:
Small text labels appear to the right of the current bar, vertically centered.
They display the status of RSI and MFI: RSI OB (Overbought), RSI OS (Oversold), MFI OB, MFI OS, along with the exact value.
Important: The labels remain on the chart as long as the condition holds (indicator is above/below the level), unlike alerts which mark a singular crossover event.
Plotting of Key Values:
The indicator plots six invisible series on the chart, primarily to allow the user to view the exact numerical values of:
- The upper and lower bounds of the External Range (External High, External Low).
- The upper and lower bounds of the Internal Range (Internal High, Internal Low).
- The calculated RSI and MFI values (RSI, MFI).
These values are accessible for viewing through TradingView's Data Window and also via the Status Line when hovering over the relevant candle. This enables more precise quantitative analysis of range levels and momentum.
6. Comprehensive Breakout Alerts
The "Range Breakout " indicator provides 12 distinct alert conditions for breakouts, allowing you to select the required level of confirmation for each alert. All alerts are triggered only upon a fully confirmed bar close (barstate.isconfirmed) to minimize false signals and ensure reliability.
All breakout alerts are configured to detect a Crossover/Crossunder of the levels, meaning a specific event where the price moves from one side of the range to the other.
External Range Breakout UP
- Close: Price closes above the External Range.
- Real Body: The entire "real body" of the candle (min of open/close prices) closes above the External Range.
- Full Candle: The entire candle (the lowest point of the candle) closes above the External Range.
External Range Breakout DOWN
- Close: Price closes below the External Range.
- Real Body: The entire "real body" of the candle (max of open/close prices) closes below the External Range.
- Full Candle: The entire candle (the highest point of the candle) closes below the External Range.
Internal Range Breakout UP
- Close: Price closes above the Internal Range.
- Real Body: The "real body" of the candle closes above the Internal Range.
- Full Candle: The entire candle closes above the Internal Range.
Internal Range Breakout DOWN
- Close: Price closes below the Internal Range.
- Real Body: The "real body" of the candle closes below the Internal Range.
- Full Candle: The entire candle closes below the Internal Range.
7. Ideal Use Cases
This indicator is ideal for traders who:
Want to clearly identify and monitor price consolidation zones.
Seek confirmation for breakout strategies across various timeframes.
Require reliable and automated alerts for potential entry or exit points based on range expansion.
8. Complementary Indicator
For even more comprehensive market analysis, we highly recommend using this indicator in conjunction with Market Structure Support & Resistance External/Internal & BoS .
This powerful complementary indicator automatically and accurately identifies significant support and resistance levels by locating high and low pivot points, as well as key Pre-Market High/Low levels. Its strength lies in its dynamic adaptability to any timeframe and asset, providing precise and relevant real-time levels while maintaining a clean chart. It also identifies Break of Structure (BoS) to signal potential trend changes or continuations.
Using both indicators together provides a robust framework for identifying defined ranges and potential trend shifts, enabling more informed trading decisions.

Relative StrengthDescription:
This indicator provides a simplified yet powerful method for measuring a stock's momentum based on its proximity to its recent high. It is a direct implementation of a trading concept discussed in a lecture from the New York Institute of Finance.
Core Concept
The underlying theory, supported by academic research, is that a stock making a new high is one of the most bullish signals possible. Such stocks have a statistical tendency to continue making new highs in the near term.
Instead of requiring complex relative strength calculations against a universe of stocks, this indicator uses a simple and elegant ratio to act as a proxy for momentum:
Indicator Value = Current Close / Highest High of Lookback Period
A value approaching 1.0 indicates the stock is strong and nearing a new high. A value at 1.0 means a new high has just been made.
How to Use This Indicator
The indicator consists of two primary components:
RS Line (Teal): The core momentum calculation (Close / High).
Signal MA (Orange): A moving average of the NHRS Line, which acts as the trigger for signals.
The signals are generated based on the crossover between these two lines:
BUY Signal: When the RS Line crosses ABOVE its moving average. This suggests that short-term momentum is accelerating and a new uptrend may be starting. The background will turn green.
SELL Signal: When the RS Line crosses BELOW its moving average. This indicates that momentum is fading and it may be prudent to exit the position to avoid a decline. The background will turn red.
Indicator Settings
You can customize the indicator to fit your trading style and the timeframe you are analyzing:
High Lookback Period: Choose the period for the "Highest High" calculation. Options range from 1 Month to 12 Months (52 weeks), allowing you to measure short-term or long-term strength.
Moving Average Length: Adjust the length of the signal line's moving average. The lecturer defaults to 26 weeks for a six-month view.
Moving Average Type: Select the type of moving average for the signal line (SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA).
Credits and Inspiration
Proper credit is essential. This script is a practical application of a concept that builds upon foundational academic work.
The core idea that a stock's proximity to its 52-week high is an investable anomaly was detailed in the 2004 Journal of Finance paper:
"The 52 Week High and Momentum Investing" by Thomas J. George and Chuan-Yang Hwang.
The lecturer's contribution, which this script implements, was to simplify this concept into an actionable trading tool by applying a moving average crossover to generate clear and objective buy and sell signals.

True Breakout Pattern [TradingFinder] Breakout Signal Indicator🔵 Introduction
In many market conditions, what initially appears to be a decisive breakout often turns out to be nothing more than a false breakout or fake breakout. Price breaks through a key swing level or an important support and resistance zone, only to quickly return to its previous range.
These failed breakouts, which are often the result of liquidity traps or market manipulation, serve more as a warning sign of structural weakness than confirmation of a new trend.
This indicator is designed around the concept of the fake breakout.
The logic is simple but precise : when price breaks a swing level and returns to that level within a maximum of five candles, the move is considered a false breakout. At this point, a Fibonacci retracement is applied to the recent price swing to evaluate the pullback area.
If price, within ten candles after the return to the breakout level, enters the Fibonacci zone between 0.618 and 1.0, the setup becomes valid for a potential entry. This area is identified as a long entry zone, with the stop loss placed just beyond the 1.0 level and the take profit defined based on the desired risk-to-reward ratio.
By combining accurate detection of false breakouts, analysis of price reaction to swing levels, and alignment with Fibonacci retracement logic, this framework allows traders to identify opportunities often missed by others. In a market where failed breakouts are a common and recurring phenomenon, this indicator aims to transform these traps into measurable trading opportunities.
Long Setup :
Short Setup :
🔵 How to Use
This indicator operates based on the recognition of false breakouts from structural levels in the market, specifically swing levels, and combines that with Fibonacci retracement analysis.
In this strategy, trades are only considered when price returns to the broken level within a defined time window and reacts appropriately inside a predefined Fibonacci range. Depending on the direction of the initial breakout, the system outlines two scenarios for long and short setups.
🟣 Long Setup
In the long setup, price initially breaks below a support level or swing low. If the price returns to the broken level within a maximum of five candles, the move is identified as a fake breakout.
At this stage, a Fibonacci retracement is drawn from the recent high to the low. If price, within ten candles of returning to the level, moves into the 0.618 to 1.0 Fibonacci zone, the conditions for a long entry are met.
The stop loss is placed slightly below the 1.0 level, while the take profit is set based on the trader’s preferred risk-reward ratio. This setup aims to capture deeply discounted entries at low risk, aligned with smart money reversals.
🟣 Short Setup
In the short setup, the price breaks above a resistance level or swing high. If the price returns to that level within five candles, the move is again treated as a false breakout. Fibonacci is then drawn from the recent low to the high to observe the retracement area.
Should price enter the 0.618 to 1.0 Fibonacci range within ten candles of returning, a short entry is considered valid. In this case, the stop loss is placed just above the 1.0 level, and the take profit is adjusted based on the intended risk-reward target. This method allows traders to identify high-probability short setups by focusing on failed breakouts and deep pullbacks.
🔵 Settings
🟣 Logical settings
Swing period : You can set the swing detection period.
Valid After Trigger Bars : Limits how many candles after a fake breakout the entry zone remains valid.
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.
🟣 Display settings
Displaying or not displaying swings and setting the color of labels and lines.
🟣 Alert Settings
Alert False Breakout : Enables alerts for Breakout.
Message Frequency : Determines the frequency of alerts. Options include 'All' (every function call), 'Once Per Bar' (first call within the bar), and 'Once Per Bar Close' (final script execution of the real-time bar). Default is 'Once per Bar'.
Show Alert Time by Time Zone : Configures the time zone for alert messages. Default is 'UTC'.
🔵 Conclusion
A sound understanding of the false breakout phenomenon and its relationship to structural price behavior is essential for technical traders aiming to improve precision and consistency. Many poor trading decisions stem from misinterpreting failed breakouts and entering too early into weak signals.
A structured approach, grounded in the analysis of swing levels and validated through specific price action and timing rules, can turn these misleading moves into valuable trade opportunities.
This indicator, by combining fake breakout detection with time filters and Fibonacci-based retracement zones, helps traders only engage with the market when multiple confirming factors are in alignment. The result is a strategy that emphasizes probability, risk control, and clarity in decision-making, offering a solid edge in navigating today’s volatile markets.

IU Engulfing Candlestick PatternDISCRIPTION
📈 The IU Engulfing Candlestick Pattern indicator spotlights both bullish and bearish engulfing formations in real‑time. It shades each pattern with a transparent box and drops a concise label so you can catch potential reversals at a glance—no clutter, no noise, just the candles that matter.
USER INPUTS :
1. Pattern Recognition Based on = “Both” | “Wicks” | “Body” ( Default Both )
• Both → only highlights candles that satisfy **both** wick‑and‑body engulfing rules
• Wicks → checks full candle range (high‑to‑low)
• Body → checks only the real bodies (open‑to‑close)
2. Show Labels ( Default true )
If ticked then it will show the text as "Bullish Engulfing" or "Bearish Engulfing".
3. Show The Box ( Default true)
if ticked then it will show the green or red boxes.
INDICATOR LOGIC:
🔹 Bullish Engulfing (green box)
– Current bar closes higher than it opens and fully “wraps” the prior bar per your chosen rule.
🔹 Bearish Engulfing (red box)
– Current bar closes lower than it opens and fully “wraps” the prior bar per your chosen rule.
🔸 When a pattern confirms:
1. The script records the local high/low range.
2. Draws a semi‑transparent box spanning the engulfing pair.
3. Prints a compact up/down label exactly at the reaction point.
4. Fires a once‑per‑bar alert (“Bullish Engulfing” / “Bearish Engulfing”) you can route to webhooks or notifications.
WHY IT IS UNIQUE:
✨ Combines classic body‑only engulfing with an optional wick filter, letting traders demand stricter confirmation when markets are noisy.
✨ Box overlays visually segment the engulfed range—clearer than single‑bar markers.
✨ Lightweight: one input, zero repaint, and capped at 500 boxes to keep charts responsive.
✨ Ready‑to‑use alerts—no extra code needed for automation.
HOW USER CAN BENIFIT FROM IT :
- Spot early reversal zones or continuation thrusts without scanning candle by candle.
- Pair the alerts with trading bots, TradingView strategy testers, or mobile push notifications.
- Adapt the strictness (Body vs. Wicks vs. Both) to suit different assets, timeframes, or volatility regimes.
- Use the colored range boxes as dynamic support/resistance references for entries, targets, and stop‑loss placement.
📌 Tip: Test on multiple instruments and timeframes to find the sweet spot that matches your risk profile. This script is for educational purposes—always combine with sound risk management and confirm signals with broader market context.

Adaptive Causal Wavelet Trend FilterThe Adaptive Causal Wavelet Trend Filter is a technical indicator implementing causal approximations of wavelet transform properties for better trend detection with adaptive volatility response.
The Adaptive Causal Wavelet Trend Filter (ACWTF) applies mathematical principles derived from wavelet analysis to financial time series, providing robust trend identification with minimal lag. Unlike conventional moving averages, it preserves significant price movements while filtering market noise through signal processing that i describe below.
I was inspired to build this indicator after reading " Wavelet-Based Trend Identification in Financial Time Series " by In, F., & Kim, S. 2013 and reading about Mexican Hat wavelet filters.
The ACWTF maintains optimal performance across varying market regimes without requiring parameter adjustments by adapting filter characteristics to current volatility conditions.
Mathematical Foundation
Inspired by the Mexican Hat wavelet (Ricker wavelet), this indicator implements causal approximations of wavelet filters optimized for real-time financial analysis. The multi-resolution approach identifies features at different scales and the adaptive component dynamically adjusts filtering characteristics based on local volatility measurements.
Key mathematical properties include:
Non-linear frequency response adaptation
Edge-preserving signal extraction
Scale-space analysis through dual filter implementation
Volatility-dependent coefficient adjustment, which I love
Filter Methods
Adaptive: Implements a volatility-weighted combination of multiple filter types to optimize the time-frequency resolution trade-off
Hull: Provides a causal approximation of wavelet edge detection properties with forward-projection characteristics
VWMA: Incorporates volume information into the filtering process for enhanced signal detection
EMA Cascade: Creates a multi-pole filter structure that approximates certain wavelet scaling properties
Suggestion: try all as they will provide slightly different signals. Try also different time-frames.
Practical Applications
Trend Direction Identification: Clear visual trend direction with reduced noise and lag
Regime Change Detection: Early identification of significant trend reversals
Market Condition Analysis: Integrated volatility metrics provide context for current market behavior
Multi-timeframe Confirmation: Alignment between primary and secondary filters offers additional confirmation
Entry/Exit Timing: Filter crossovers and trend changes provide potential trading signals
The comprehensive information panel provides:
Current filter method and trend state
Trend alignment between timeframes
Real-time volatility assessment
Price position relative to filter
Overall trading bias based on multiple factors
Implementation Notes
Log returns option provides improved statistical properties for financial time series
Primary and secondary filter lengths can be adjusted to optimize for specific instruments and timeframes
The indicator performs particularly well during trend transitions and regime changes
The indicator reduces the need for using additional indicators to check trend reversion
