Custom Dividers [louis]Custom Dividers is a streamlined utility designed for Multi-Timeframe Analysis (MTF). It allows you to visualize higher timeframe structures directly on lower timeframe charts by drawing infinite vertical lines at the open of new periods.
Unlike standard grid lines and other divider indicators, this has custom inputs, giving you complete control over non-standard timeframes (e.g., 90-minute cycles, 6-hour blocks, or 2-day periods).
🔑 Key Features
- 4 Independent Timeframe Slots: Configure up to four different vertical dividers simultaneously.
- Custom Minute Inputs (TF 1 & TF 2): Instead of restricting you to a dropdown, the first two slots allow you to input any integer for minutes.
Example: Set 90 for 90-minute cycle dividers.
Example: Set 360 for 6-hour dividers.
- Standard Timeframe Selectors (TF 3 & TF 4): Traditional dropdowns for standard periods like Daily (D), Weekly (W), or Monthly (M).
- Visual Customization:
Lines: Uses line.new() drawing logic to ensure dividers stretch infinitely from top to bottom, regardless of price scale.
Styles: Select from Solid, Dashed, or Dotted directly in the inputs.
Width & Color: Fully customizable to blend into your chart theme.
⚙️ How to Configure
Go to the Settings (Inputs Tab):
TF 1 & TF 2: Enter the specific number of minutes (e.g., 60 = 1 Hour, 240 = 4 Hours). Toggle the checkbox to Show/Hide.
TF 3 & TF 4: Select the timeframe period from the dropdown. Toggle the checkbox to Show/Hide.
Style: Choose your line style, color, and width.
Note: Since this indicator uses geometric drawings (line.new) to achieve full-height vertical lines, all visual settings (Color, Width, Style) are located in the Inputs Tab, not the Style tab.
Engulfing Breakout StructureEngulfing Breakout Structure (EBS)
" Identify High-Probability Market Structures, Not Just Patterns. "
The E ngulfing Breakout Structure (EBS) is a professional-grade analysis tool designed to filter market noise and identify the true origins of significant price movements. While standard Engulfing patterns occur frequently, many lead to "fakeouts" within a range. EBS solves this by treating an engulfing candle as a potential "structure" that is only validated once a decisive Break-away occurs.
How it Works: The EBS Logic
Unlike traditional indicators that plot signals immediately, EBS follows a strict confirmation process:
Structure Formation (Invisible): The script internally tracks "Candidate" engulfing candles.
Break-away Validation: The structure is only drawn on the chart after price aggressively breaks out of the engulfing range, accompanied by a Fair Value Gap (FVG).
Historical Anchoring: Once confirmed, the block is plotted back to its origin, highlighting the exact zone where the market imbalance was created.
Key Features
Break-away Filter: Eliminates low-probability signals by ensuring price has left the "zone of indecision."
Dynamic Structure Plotting: Automatically draws the supply/demand blocks that acted as the catalyst for the breakout.
Smart FVG Integration: Detects and highlights the gaps created during the breakout, providing additional confluence for entry.
EBS Break-away Confirmed: Triggered the moment a new structure is validated by a decisive price breakout. This alert signals that a new supply or demand zone has been established.
EBS Structure Tested (Mitigation): Triggered when price returns to touch a previously confirmed EBS block. This "Mitigation" often presents the highest risk-to-reward entry opportunity as it tests the origin of the breakout.
Trading Strategy
The Breakout (Aggressive): Enter as soon as the EBS block and FVG appear, following the momentum.
The Retest (Conservative): Wait for price to return and "mitigate" the EBS block. This retest of a confirmed breakout structure is a classic institutional entry pattern.
cephxs + fadi / HTF PSPHTF PSP - PRECISION SWING POINTS
Detect divergence-based Precision Swing Points (PSPs) across multiple higher timeframes with automatic correlated asset detection.
WHAT'S NEW (vs Original HTF Candles)
This indicator builds on @fadizeidan's excellent ICT HTF Candles foundation with significant new functionality, depending on who you ask of course:
✨ PSP Divergence Detection: Automatically identifies Precision Swing Points where price diverges from correlated assets—the original has no divergence analysis
✨ Auto Asset Correlation: Uses AssetCorrelationUtils library to detect and pair correlated assets (ES↔NQ↔DXY, BTC↔ETH, Gold↔Silver, etc.)—no manual setup required
✨ Multi-Asset Comparison: Tracks up to 3 correlated assets simultaneously with divergence relationships between all pairs
✨ Dynamic Asset Reordering: When you switch charts, the indicator automatically reorders assets so your chart is always primary
✨ Inverse Correlation Support: Properly handles inversely correlated assets like DXY (bullish DXY = bearish signal for risk assets)
✨ HTF Sweep Detection: New sweep line feature highlights when HTF candles take out previous highs/lows and close back inside. One of my followers asked me for this, there you go anon.
🔧 Streamlined to 3 HTFs: Focused design with 3 HTF slots (vs 6) for cleaner charts and better performance
The original remains excellent for pure HTF candle visualization. This version adds institutional flow analysis through divergence detection.
WHAT IT DOES
This indicator displays Higher Timeframe (HTF) candles to the right of your chart and highlights Precision Swing Points—pivots where price diverges from correlated assets. When ES makes a new high but NQ doesn't follow, or gold pushes higher while DXY fails to confirm, you're looking at institutional repositioning.
PSPs mark these moments on your HTF candles, giving you a clean visual signal for potential reversals.
HOW IT WORKS
Divergence Detection
The indicator compares price action between your chart and up to two correlated assets. A divergence occurs when one asset makes a directional move (bullish/bearish candle) while a correlated asset moves the opposite direction.
Three divergence relationships are tracked:
Primary vs Secondary (e.g., ES vs NQ)
Primary vs Tertiary (e.g., ES vs DXY)
Secondary vs Tertiary (e.g., NQ vs DXY)
PSP Confirmation
A candle is marked as a PSP when:
A divergence exists between correlated assets
A swing pivot forms (high > previous high AND high > next high, or vice versa for lows)
This dual confirmation filters noise and highlights only meaningful institutional activity.
Automatic Asset Detection
In Auto mode, the indicator uses the AssetCorrelationUtils library to detect your chart's asset class and automatically select the most relevant correlated pairs:
Indices: ES ↔ NQ ↔ DXY, YM ↔ ES ↔ NQ
Forex: EURUSD ↔ DXY ↔ GBPUSD, USDJPY ↔ DXY ↔ US10Y
Crypto: BTC ↔ ETH ↔ DXY
Metals: Gold ↔ Silver ↔ DXY
Energy: CL (Oil) ↔ NG ↔ DXY
HTF Sweep Detection
Sweeps are detected when an HTF candle (C2) takes out the high or low of the previous candle (C1) and then closes back inside. This marks liquidity grabs on the higher timeframe.
HOW TO USE
Enable HTF timeframes: Select 1-3 higher timeframes relevant to your trading style (e.g., 30m, 90m, 4H for intraday traders)
Watch for PSP candles: When a candle body color changes to the divergence color, a PSP has formed
Note the direction: Bullish divergence (your asset bullish while correlated asset bearish) suggests upside; bearish divergence suggests downside
Combine with LTF structure: Use PSPs as bias, then look for entry on lower timeframes (CHoCH, FVG, etc.)
Sweeps confirm liquidity: A sweep followed by a PSP is a strong reversal signal

BEST PRACTICES
Use PSPs as directional bias, not direct entries—wait for LTF confirmation
A PSP at a key level (previous day high, weekly open) carries more weight
Multiple PSPs across different HTFs pointing the same direction = stronger signal
Sweeps that fail to hold (sweep + PSP) often mark significant reversals
In Auto mode, trust the library's asset selection—it's been tuned for common correlations
DISCLAIMER
This indicator is for educational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice. Divergences and PSPs do not guarantee reversals—always use proper risk management and confirm signals with your own analysis. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Michael LipsiusTitle: Michael Multi-Timeframe Trend Dashboard (HTF Bias & LTF Execution)
Description:
Overview This indicator is a specialized Top-Down Analysis tool designed to assist traders in identifying the dominant market direction across multiple timeframes instantly. Built around the principles of Michael's Trading Strategy and institutional trend following, this dashboard eliminates the noise and provides a clear, color-coded directional bias (Prognosis) for both High Time Frame (HTF) structure and Low Time Frame (LTF) momentum.
Core Functionality The dashboard generates a real-time matrix displayed directly on the chart, analyzing price action relative to the 50-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA). This specific metric is chosen to filter out minor fluctuations and reveal the true institutional flow of money.
1. High Time Frame (HTF) Prognosis – The "Compass" The indicator monitors the Daily (D1) and 4-Hour (H4) timeframes to establish the macro trend.
Bullish 🟢: Price is holding above the 50 EMA. This indicates that Smart Money is accumulating, and traders should focus primarily on Long setups.
Bearish 🔴: Price is trading below the 50 EMA. This suggests institutional distribution, meaning Short setups have a higher probability of success.
Purpose: The HTF modules act as your safety filter. By respecting the D1/H4 signals, you avoid trading against the major trend, significantly reducing the risk of being stopped out by macro flows.
2. Low Time Frame (LTF) Execution – The "Trigger" Simultaneously, the indicator analyzes the 1-Hour (H1) and 15-Minute (M15) timeframes.
These timeframes are crucial for timing entries and managing intraday volatility.
Conflict Warning: If the HTF is Bullish (Green) but the LTF is Bearish (Red), the market is likely in a pullback phase. This warns the trader to wait for the LTF to realign with the HTF before entering.
How to Use This Tool This dashboard is designed to be the first step in your trading routine:
Check Confluence: Look for a "Full Green" or "Full Red" board. When D1, H4, and H1 align, the probability of a successful trade increases exponentially.
Identify Pullbacks: If D1/H4 are Green, but M15 is Red, do not sell. Instead, treat this as a discount phase and wait for the M15 to flip back to Green for a high-precision entry.
Risk Management: Use the HTF bias to determine your risk exposure. Trade with full risk only when HTF and LTF are aligned.
Settings & Customization
Table Position: Fully adjustable (Top Right, Bottom Right, etc.) to fit your workspace.
EMA Period: Default is set to 50 (Standard Michael Strategy), but can be adjusted to fit other strategies.
Visuals: Clean, non-intrusive design with clear color coding for instant readability.
Disclaimer This tool is for informational purposes only and serves as a trend-confirmation aid. It should be used in conjunction with price action analysis, key levels, and proper risk management.

Inside Bar Breakout ( candlestick pattern).📌 What Is This Indicator?
BOIB Pro identifies a very strict form of inside bar:
✅ The inside bar candle’s entire range (body + wicks) must be inside the BODY of the previous candle (mother candle).
❌ If even a single wick is outside the mother body, the setup is rejected.
This filters out weak and noisy inside bars and focuses only on true compression candles.
⸻
📐 Pattern Rules (Strict)
1️⃣ Mother Candle
• The candle immediately before the inside bar
2️⃣ Body-Only Inside Bar (BOIB)
A valid BOIB must satisfy:
• Inside bar high ≤ mother candle body high
• Inside bar low ≥ mother candle body low
⚠️ Normal inside bars (inside wicks only) are ignored.
⸻
⏱️ Breakout Window Logic
After a valid BOIB forms:
• The indicator waits for the next 1 to 5 candles (user-configurable)
• Entry is triggered only if price CLOSES outside the BOIB range
✅ Long Signal
• Candle closes above BOIB high
✅ Short Signal
• Candle closes below BOIB low
If no breakout occurs within the window → setup expires automatically
⸻
🎯 Entry, Stop Loss & Take Profit Logic
Once a valid breakout/breakdown occurs, the indicator automatically draws a professional trade template:
Entry
• At the close of the breakout candle
Stop Loss
• Long → below BOIB low
• Short → above BOIB high
• Optional buffer:
• ATR-based
• Percentage-based
• Or none
Take Profits
• TP1: Risk-Reward based (default 1R)
• TP2: Extended target (default 2R)
All levels are clearly visualized using:
• Horizontal price lines
• Risk and reward boxes
• Informational labels
⸻
📊 Best Use Cases
• Crypto (BTC, ETH, major alts)
• Timeframes:
• Scalping: 5m
• Day trading: 15m / 30m
• Works best when combined with:
• Market structure
• Trend bias
• Support / resistance
⸻
⚠️ Important Notes
• This is NOT an auto-trading system
• Signals should always be used with:
• Proper risk management
• Market context
• Inside bars in sideways or low-volume markets may fail

Delta Microstructure AnalysisDelta Microstructure Analysis
Market microstructure analysis using footprint data for divergence, exhaustion, absorption, and trapped trader detection
Overview
Delta Microstructure Analysis is an order flow indicator that uses TradingView's footprint data to identify market conditions including divergences, exhaustion patterns, absorption zones, and trapped trader scenarios. The indicator calculates delta at each bar and tracks cumulative delta to identify potential reversals and continuations.
Key Features
Footprint Data Integration: Uses TradingView's built-in footprint data for accurate buy/sell volume delta calculation. Falls back to synthetic delta calculation when footprint data is unavailable.
Adaptive Tick Calculation: Automatically adjusts footprint tick size based on asset type and timeframe. Baseline values: crypto (200), forex (10), stocks (5), indices/futures (1), with timeframe scaling.
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD): Tracks cumulative delta with reset options (None, Daily, Fixed Bars) to identify overall buying/selling pressure trends.
Divergence Detection: Identifies bullish and bearish divergences between price action and cumulative delta using configurable pivot strength (3-20 bars).
Exhaustion Pattern Recognition: Detects buying and selling exhaustion when delta exceeds configurable multiplier (2.0-10.0x) of average delta over lookback period (10-100 bars).
Absorption Zone Analysis: Identifies areas where aggressive orders are absorbed by resting liquidity, indicating potential support/resistance zones.
Trapped Trader Detection: Recognizes scenarios with strong initial momentum followed by sharp reversals, suggesting trapped positions.
Visual Labeling System: Displays signals as monospace labels (DIV↑/DIV↓, EXH↑/EXH↓, ABS↑/ABS↓, TRAP↑/TRAP↓) above/below candles.
Info Table Display: Shows current CVD, delta, average delta, data source, and active signals in a monospace-formatted table.
Alert System: Individual alerts for each signal type (divergences, exhaustion, absorption, trapped traders).
How It Works
Footprint Data Request: The indicator requests footprint data using adaptive tick sizing. If unavailable, uses synthetic delta calculation based on candle characteristics.
Delta Calculation: For footprint data, uses fp.delta() function. For synthetic delta, considers body size, wick analysis, and volume characteristics.
Cumulative Delta Tracking: Maintains running cumulative delta that resets based on selected mode (daily session changes or fixed bar intervals).
Pivot Detection: Uses configurable pivot strength to identify significant highs and lows in both price and cumulative delta.
Divergence Analysis: Compares price pivots with cumulative delta pivots. Bullish divergence: lower price lows with higher delta lows. Bearish divergence: higher price highs with lower delta highs.
Exhaustion Detection: Calculates average absolute delta over lookback period and identifies when current delta exceeds multiplier threshold.
Absorption Identification: Analyzes footprint patterns to detect when aggressive orders are met with sufficient resting liquidity.
Trapped Trader Recognition: Identifies strong momentum followed by sharp reversals using proprietary pattern recognition.
Signal Display: Shows signals as labels on chart and summarizes in info table with current market conditions.
Use Cases
Divergence Trading: Use divergence signals to identify potential trend reversals before they appear in price action.
Exhaustion Monitoring: Identify when buying or selling pressure may be exhausted, suggesting potential reversals.
Support/Resistance Levels: Use absorption zones to identify key price levels where institutional activity occurs.
Risk Management: Use trapped trader signals to anticipate sharp reversals and adjust position sizing.
Market Structure Analysis: Understand underlying order flow dynamics driving price movements.
Confirmation Tool: Combine with other technical indicators to confirm signals and improve trade probability.

Technical Notes
The indicator uses TradingView's footprint functions (request.footprint(), fp.delta()) for order flow analysis.
Adaptive tick calculation converts all timeframes to minutes for consistent scaling across chart intervals.
Synthetic delta calculation uses body size (70% weight), wick analysis, and body-to-range ratio for fallback when footprint data unavailable.
The indicator uses barstate.isconfirmed for calculations to prevent repainting.
All text displays use monospace font for consistent readability.
Table displays current CVD, delta, average delta, data source, and active signals in real-time.
Best Practices
Use on symbols where footprint data is available for most accurate analysis.
Combine divergence signals with price action for higher probability setups.
Monitor exhaustion signals in context of overall trend direction.
Pay attention to absorption zones at key technical levels.
Use trapped trader signals as early warning for potential reversals.
Adjust pivot strength based on trading timeframe (lower for shorter timeframes).
Consider data source indicator - synthetic delta may be less reliable than footprint data.
Set up alerts for preferred signal types when monitoring multiple symbols.
This indicator analyzes market microstructure using footprint data to identify divergences, exhaustion, absorption, and trapped trader patterns.

MB-MACD## Description
**MB-MACD** is a custom Pine Script indicator designed to enhance momentum analysis by combining a volume-based "Main Buy Ratio" (MB) calculation with a traditional MACD oscillator. The MB Ratio estimates institutional buying pressure by apportioning volume based on the candle's range and close position, providing a unique proxy for "smart money" flow. This smoothed MB value is then used as the source for MACD computation, allowing for divergence detection between price action, the MB line, and the MACD Histogram.
Key features include:
- **MB Line**: A histogram-style plot showing smoothed buy/sell ratio, colored bullishly (teal) or bearishly (pink) based on direction.
- **MACD Histogram**: Standard MACD applied to the MB source, with optional smoothing.
- **Divergence Detection**: Identifies bullish and bearish divergences on both the MB line and MACD Histogram, with configurable filters for momentum decay and zero-line alignment.
- **Visualization Options**: Display divergence lines and labels in the indicator pane or synced as an overlay on the main chart for better context.
- **Alerts**: Triggers for bullish or bearish divergences to notify users of potential reversal setups.
This indicator is particularly useful for swing traders and momentum followers looking to spot hidden divergences that may signal trend reversals or continuations. It emphasizes risk management by highlighting where price and momentum decouple, but remember: divergences are probabilistic signals and should be confirmed with other tools.
As this is a community-shared script, I encourage users to test it thoroughly and provide feedback. If you spot any bugs, calculation errors, or improvements (e.g., edge cases with low-volume symbols or performance issues on certain timeframes), please comment below or reach out—your input helps refine it for everyone!
## User Manual
### Introduction
The **MB-MACD** indicator integrates volume analysis with MACD to detect divergences in price and momentum. The core innovation is the "Main Buy Ratio" (MB), which approximates buying vs. selling volume within each bar based on its range and close position. This MB value is smoothed and fed into a MACD calculation, enabling divergence scans on both the MB line and the resulting MACD Histogram.
Divergences occur when price makes higher highs/lower lows, but the oscillator (MB or Histogram) fails to confirm—often signaling potential reversals. The script offers flexible display options, filters to reduce false positives, and alerts for real-time notifications.
**Important Notes:**
- This is not financial advice; use it for educational purposes and backtest on your symbols/timeframes.
- Works best on liquid stocks or indices with reliable volume data (e.g., daily or higher timeframes).
- Performance may vary on low-volume assets or during after-hours trading.
- If you encounter issues (e.g., no divergences detected or rendering errors), check your chart settings and report them in the comments for community debugging.
### Inputs Explanation
The inputs are grouped for ease of configuration. Adjust them via the indicator's settings panel in TradingView.
#### Core Parameters
- **Show MB Line** (Default: True): Enables/disables the MB Ratio histogram plot.
- **Show MACD Histogram** (Default: True): Enables/disables the MACD line and histogram plots.
- **MB Smoothing (SMA)** (Default: 10, Min: 1): Length for smoothing the raw MB Ratio using a Simple Moving Average (SMA). Higher values reduce noise but may lag.
- **Pivot Lookback Length** (Default: 5, Min: 2): Bars to look back/forward for detecting price pivots (highs/lows) used in divergence logic.
- **Max Lines Kept** (Default: 100, Min: 10): Limits the number of divergence lines/labels to prevent chart clutter.
#### Display Settings
- **Show Lines (Indicator Pane)** (Default: True): Draws divergence lines on the MB line in the indicator pane.
- **Show Labels (Indicator Pane)** (Default: True): Adds labels (e.g., "L" for line divergence) at divergence points in the pane.
- **Show Hist Divergence Lines** (Default: True): Draws dashed lines for MACD Histogram divergences in the pane.
- **Show Hist Divergence Labels** (Default: True): Adds labels (e.g., "H" for histogram divergence) in the pane.
- **Sync Lines to Main Chart (Overlay)** (Default: True): Mirrors divergence lines and labels onto the main price chart for context (slightly offset for visibility).
#### Filters & Tolerance
- **Peak Alignment Tolerance (Bars)** (Default: 5, Min: 0): Allows flexibility in matching oscillator peaks/valleys to price pivots (e.g., within ±5 bars).
- **Max Divergence Distance (Bars)** (Default: 20, Min: 5): Maximum bars between two pivots for a valid divergence; prevents detecting overly distant signals.
- **Enable Momentum Decay Filter** (Default: True): For Histogram divergences, requires the current peak/valley to have a smaller absolute value than the previous (indicating convergence/decay).
- **Enable Zero-Side Filter** (Default: False): Ensures both peaks/valleys in a divergence are on the same side of the zero line (e.g., both positive or both negative).
#### MACD Settings
- **MACD Fast Length** (Default: 12): Fast EMA length for MACD.
- **MACD Slow Length** (Default: 26): Slow EMA length for MACD.
- **MACD Signal Length** (Default: 9): Smoothing length for the MACD signal line.
- **MACD Source Smoothing** (Default: 3, Min: 1): Additional SMA smoothing applied to the MB Ratio before MACD calculation.
### How It Works
1. **MB Ratio Calculation**: For each bar, the script computes the position of the close within the high-low range (0-1). This scales the volume into "buy" and "sell" portions, then derives a net ratio (-100% to +100%). It's smoothed via SMA for the final MB line.
2. **MACD Application**: The (optionally smoothed) raw MB is used as the MACD source, producing a MACD line, signal line, and histogram.
3. **Pivot Detection**: Uses Pine's `ta.pivothigh`/`ta.pivotlow` to find price highs/lows over the lookback period.
4. **Divergence Scanning**:
- **Bearish (on Highs)**: Price makes a higher high, but MB/Hist makes a lower high.
- **Bullish (on Lows)**: Price makes a lower low, but MB/Hist makes a higher low (closer to zero).
- Scans nearby bars for oscillator matches and applies filters.
5. **Rendering**: Lines/labels are drawn in the indicator pane or overlaid on the chart. Colors: Teal for bullish, Pink/Maroon for bearish.
6. **Cleanup**: Automatically removes old lines/labels to stay under the max limit.
### Interpreting the Outputs
- **MB Line (Columns)**: Positive (teal) indicates net buying pressure; negative (pink) shows selling. Watch for crossovers above/below zero as momentum shifts.
- **MACD Histogram (Area)**: Green/teal for positive momentum; red/maroon for negative. Widening bars suggest strengthening trends; narrowing indicates weakening.
- **Divergence Lines/Labels**:
- Solid lines: MB line divergences (thicker, labeled "L").
- Dashed lines: Histogram divergences (thinner, labeled "H").
- Bullish: Teal lines sloping up (potential bottom reversal).
- Bearish: Pink lines sloping down (potential top reversal).
- **Overlay on Chart**: Lines connect price pivots (or offset slightly for Histogram). Use this to visualize how divergences align with candlesticks.
- **Zero Line**: Gray horizontal line; divergences filtered by side if enabled.
**Example Usage**:
- On a daily stock chart, enable overlays and watch for a bullish "L" or "H" label near a price low—could signal a buy if confirmed by volume breakout.
- In a downtrend, bearish divergences on highs might warn of further downside.
### Alerts
- **Bullish Divergence (L or H)**: Triggers on any detected bullish divergence (MB or Histogram).
- **Bearish Divergence (L or H)**: Triggers on bearish divergences.
- Set up via TradingView's alert menu: Select the indicator, choose the condition, and customize the message (e.g., includes ticker).
### Troubleshooting / Known Issues
- **No Divergences Shown**: Increase "Peak Alignment Tolerance" or reduce filters. Ensure pivot length suits your timeframe (shorter for intraday).
- **Too Many Lines/Labels**: Lower "Max Lines Kept" or increase "Max Divergence Distance" to filter distant signals.
- **Performance on Low-Volume Symbols**: MB Ratio may be unreliable; test on high-volume assets first.
- **Rendering Errors**: If lines don't appear, check chart zoom or ensure "force_overlay=true" isn't conflicting with other indicators.
- **NaN/Undefined Values**: Rare on live data but possible in historical backtests; report with symbol/timeframe for fixes.

A Humbled Trader Strategy + ChecklistHumbled Trader Swing Strategy + Checklist
This indicator is a complete swing trading system based on the high-probability strategies popularized by Humbled Trader. It is designed to help traders identify trend breakouts and low-risk momentum pullbacks on the Daily Timeframe.
The script combines trend filtering, automated resistance lines, and specific entry triggers into a single chart overlay, complete with a real-time Strategy Checklist Dashboard to confirm your setups instantly.
🎯 Core Components
Trend Filter (Purple Line): The 200 Simple Moving Average (SMA). This acts as your long-term trend filter. We only look for long trades when the price is above this line.
Momentum Guide (Orange Line): The 8 Exponential Moving Average (EMA). This tracks short-term momentum. In a strong trend, price will "ride" this line. We look to enter when price pulls back to touch this area.
Multi-Month Resistance (Orange Horizontal Line): Automatically plots the highest price over the last X Months (adjustable). This helps you instantly visualize the key level the stock needs to break out from.
Checklist Dashboard: A real-time table that evaluates Trend, Resistance, and Momentum conditions to give you a clear "✅ ENTER", "🚀 GAP UP", or "⏳ WAIT" signal.
🛠 How It Works
This indicator scans for two specific setups:
1. The Daily Gap Up ("GAP" Label) This signal appears when a stock shows strong momentum by gapping up overnight.
Condition: The stock opens at least 3% higher (adjustable) than the previous day's Close AND opens above the previous day's High.
Trend: Must be above the 200 SMA.
Visual: Marked with a green "GAP" label on the chart.
2. The Trend Pullback ("ENTER" Signal) This is a trend-following entry that lets you join an existing move with lower risk.
Condition: The stock is in an uptrend but dips down to touch or test the 8 EMA.
Validation: The candle must show a "dip" (red candle or lower close) to ensure we are buying a pullback, not chasing a top.
Visual: The Dashboard "Action Signal" will turn orange and display "✅ ENTER".
📋 The Checklist Dashboard
Located in the corner of your chart, this table provides a live status report for the current bar:
Trend (> 200 SMA):
🟢 Bullish: Price is in an uptrend. Safe to look for entries.
🔴 Bearish: Price is below the 200 SMA. Stay away.
Above Resistance?:
🟢 Breakout: Price has cleared the multi-month resistance line.
⚪ ---: Price is currently below the key breakout level.
Near 8 EMA?:
🟢 Yes: Price is near the "value zone" (8 EMA) for a potential pullback entry.
Action Signal:
🚀 GAP UP: Strong momentum gap detected.
✅ ENTER: Valid pullback entry detected.
⏳ WAIT: No clear setup found.
⚙️ Settings
Momentum EMA Length: Default is 8. Controls the sensitivity of the pullback line.
Trend SMA Length: Default is 200. The standard for long-term trend filtering.
Gap Up % Threshold: Default is 3.0%. Minimum overnight gap size required to trigger a signal.
Resistance Lookback (Months): Default is 3. The script will look back this many months to find and draw the key resistance line.
Table Position: Move the checklist to any corner of your screen.

Toby Crabel's HisVolAs in Linda Raschke's Street smarts..... . This indicator shows the signals of Toby Crabel's Historical Volatility 6/100 strategy. The strategy assumes, that volatility contraction measured by two measures would give better results.
There is one other script that is a strategy , but it assumes that the signal requires both inside bar and narrowest range, what is not as in Linda Raschke's.
The strategy and what does the script do:
1) measures short-term unannualized volatility (by default six), long term uannualized volatility (by default 100), and measures the ratio of short volatility / long volatility.
2) checks if the current bar is an inside bar or has narrowest range out of last X bar (by default 4), or both,
3) puts an etiquette if short volatility / long volatility is equal to or smaller than 0,5 AND the day is inside bar, has narrowest range, or both.
Next day both buy-stop and sell-stop should be set. Buy-stop at the high and sell-stop at the low of the bar with etiquette.
This is by no means any financial advice, nor the historical results guarantee future gain.
Big Trades [Volume Anomalies] (Enhanced)The script is a **volume-anomaly “big trades” detector** for futures that tries to (1) split each candle’s volume into a **buy-pressure** and **sell-pressure** estimate, (2) flag **statistically extreme** candles (tiers), and (3) optionally label those extremes as **initiative (follow-through)** vs **absorbed (no follow-through)** using a forward-style confirmation window.
Here’s what it does, piece by piece.
---
## 1) What it’s trying to detect
It’s not true “whale prints” or real bid/ask delta. It detects:
* **unusually large participation** (volume anomaly)
* with a **directional guess** (buy-ish vs sell-ish)
* and then checks whether price **continued** after that anomaly
So it’s: **“big participation + did it work?”**
---
## 2) The “buy vs sell volume” estimate
For each candle, it builds a **weight** for buy and sell pressure:
* **close location within the candle**
* close near high → more buy weight
* close near low → more sell weight
* **body direction (close–open)**
* bullish body adds buy boost
* bearish body adds sell boost
Then it computes:
* `raw_buy = volume * buy_weight`
* `raw_sell = volume * sell_weight`
This is an **OHLC-based proxy** for pressure, not real aggressor volume.
---
## 3) Normalization (makes it behave across sessions)
If enabled, it divides by ATR:
* `norm_buy = raw_buy / ATR`
* `norm_sell = raw_sell / ATR`
This helps a lot on futures because volume/volatility regimes differ between Asia/London/NY.
---
## 4) Statistical anomaly detection (z-score logic)
It calculates “what’s normal” using the last `lookback` bars, but **uses ` `** so the current bar doesn’t contaminate the stats (reduces flicker):
* `avg_buy = sma(norm_buy, lookback) `
* `std_buy = stdev(norm_buy, lookback) `
(and same for sell)
Then it computes **z-scores**:
* `z_buy = (norm_buy - avg_buy) / std_buy`
* `z_sell = (norm_sell - avg_sell) / std_sell`
If z-score crosses thresholds, it triggers tiers:
* Tier 1: `sigma`
* Tier 2: `sigma + tier_step1`
* Tier 3: `sigma + tier_step2`
So **Tier 3 = “big bubble”**.
---
## 5) Optional VWAP bias filter
It computes VWAP correctly as:
* `vwapv = ta.vwap(hlc3)`
If enabled:
* buys only when `close >= vwap`
* sells only when `close <= vwap`
This is just a **trend/bias filter** to reduce counter-trend bubbles.
---
## 6) Plotting (how bubbles appear)
It places markers at:
* buys around `(close+low)/2` (lower-ish)
* sells around `(close+high)/2` (upper-ish)
And draws:
* small/medium/large circles (depending on tier)
* with optional INIT/ABS overlays (explained next)
---
## 7) “Initiative vs Absorbed” classification (the smart part)
Because Pine can’t see the future on the same bar, your script does a **delayed evaluation**:
* It waits `N = confirm_bars`
* Looks at what happened from the signal bar to the current bar
* Decides if price moved far enough in the intended direction
It uses:
* `hh_window = highest(high, N+1)`
* `ll_window = lowest(low, N+1)`
(these cover the last N+1 bars: from signal bar to now)
Then it measures follow-through:
* For a buy signal N bars ago:
`buy_move = hh_window - high `
* For a sell signal N bars ago:
`sell_move = low - ll_window`
It compares to an ATR-based threshold anchored to the signal bar:
* `thr_move_sig = ATR * move_mult_atr`
If move > threshold → **INIT**
Else → **ABS**
Then it **plots back onto the original signal bar** using `offset=-N` so it visually marks the candle that caused it.
To make it obvious:
* **INIT** = circle
* **ABS** = X
This part is “accurate” in the sense that it’s purely **price-outcome based**.
---
## 8) Labels (optional)
If enabled, it prints labels on those large signals with:
* INIT/ABS
* the z-score at the signal bar
* and a “delta proxy” (`norm_buy - norm_sell`), not true delta
---
## In one sentence
The script flags **statistically extreme volume-pressure candles** (buy/sell proxy), and then classifies those extremes as **worked (initiative)** or **failed (absorbed)** based on **subsequent price movement** within `confirm_bars`.
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.
Features
Configurable opening range length
Choose between 5m, 15m, 30m or 60m opening ranges.
Session-based calculation
Opening range is calculated only within the selected trading session.
Opening range levels
Opening range high, low and midpoint.
Range fill & size display
Shaded fill between the opening range high and low.
Text showing total opening range size.
Clean, minimal design
Fixed line styles and thickness for clarity.
Dark and light theme support.
Minimal settings for fast, intuitive use.
Optimized performance
Designed for intraday timeframes compatible with the selected opening range length.
Terms & Conditions
This indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice.
Trading involves risk and past performance is not indicative of future results.
The user assumes full responsibility for any trading decisions made using this indicator.
Inside/Outside Bars---
Inside/Outside Bars Detector
This indicator identifies and visualizes Inside Bars and Outside Bars (Engulfing Bars) on your chart, helping traders spot potential breakout and consolidation patterns.
What are Inside/Outside Bars?
• Outside Bars (Outer Bars): Candles that break BOTH the high AND low of the previous candle. These represent periods of increased volatility and potential trend continuation or reversal. Marked with red triangle arrows by default.
• Inside Bars (Inner Bars): Candles where NEITHER the high NOR low breaks the previous candle's range. These represent consolidation and often precede significant price moves. Marked with orange triangle arrows by default.
Features:
✓ Visual arrows above bars for easy identification
✓ Fixed pixel-size arrows that remain visible at any chart zoom level
✓ Statistics table showing counts of outer bars, inner bars, and total bars analyzed
✓ Fully customizable with multiple settings
Customization Options:
• Toggle outer bars and inner bars independently
• Customize arrow colors for each pattern
• Show/hide the statistics table
• Adjust calculation bars (1000 default, max 5000)
• Set to 0 to analyze all available bars up to 5000
How to Use:
Inside bars often indicate consolidation before a breakout, while outside bars suggest increased volatility and potential momentum shifts. Use these patterns in conjunction with your trading strategy to
identify entry/exit points or to confirm trend direction.
