InsideBarPlus - Alpha GroupInside bar is a great strategy for prop firm evaluations. Since it's a short scalp.
In this version, the target and stops are ATR based.
The reason is that the volatility measurement on that specific moment, makes more sense to measure SL or TP sizing.
I hope you all enjoy. (Backtest it considering slippage, spreads and commissions), on higher timeframes the performance is better, since the spread size "becomes tiny".

Adaptive Heikin Ashi [CHE]Adaptive Heikin Ashi — volatility-aware HA with fewer fake flips
Summary
Adaptive Heikin Ashi is a volatility-aware reinterpretation of classic Heikin Ashi that continuously adjusts its internal smoothing based on the current ATR regime, which means that in quiet markets the indicator reacts more quickly to genuine directional changes, while in turbulent phases it deliberately increases its smoothing to suppress jitter and color whipsaws, thereby reducing “noise” and cutting down on fake flips without resorting to heavy fixed smoothing that would lag everywhere.
Motivation: why adapt at all?
Classic Heikin Ashi replaces raw OHLC candles with a smoothed construction that averages price and blends each new candle with the previous HA state, which typically cleans up trends and improves visual coherence, yet its fixed smoothing amount treats calm and violent markets the same, leading to the usual dilemma where a setting that looks crisp in a narrow range becomes too nervous in a spike, and a setting that tames high volatility feels unnecessarily sluggish as soon as conditions normalize; by allowing the smoothing weight to expand and contract with volatility, Adaptive HA aims to keep candles readable across shifting regimes without constant manual retuning.
What is different from normal Heikin Ashi?
Fixed vs. adaptive blend:
Classic HA implicitly uses a fixed 50/50 blend for the open update (`HA_open_t = 0.5 HA_open_{t-1} + 0.5 HA_close_{t-1}`), while this script replaces the constant 0.5 with a dynamic weight `w_t` that oscillates around 0.5 as a function of observed volatility, which turns the open update into an EMA-like filter whose “alpha” automatically changes with market conditions.
Volatility as the steering signal:
The script measures volatility via ATR and compares it to a rolling baseline (SMA of ATR over the same length), producing a normalized deviation that is scaled by sensitivity, clamped to ±1 for stability, and then mapped to a bounded weight interval ` `, so the adaptation is strong enough to matter but never runs away.
Outcome that matters to traders:
In high volatility, the weight shifts upward toward the prior HA open, which strengthens smoothing exactly where classic HA tends to “chatter,” while in low volatility the weight shifts downward toward the most recent HA close, which speeds up reaction so quiet trends do not feel artificially delayed; this is the practical mechanism by which noise and fake signals are reduced without accepting blanket lag.
How it works
1. HA close matches classic HA:
`HA_close_t = (Open_t + High_t + Low_t + Close_t) / 4`
2. Volatility normalization:
`ATR_t` is computed over `atr_length`, its baseline is `ATR_SMA_t = SMA(ATR, atr_length)`, and the raw deviation is `(ATR_t / ATR_SMA_t − 1)`, which is then scaled by `adapt_sensitivity` and clamped to ` ` to obtain `v_t`, ensuring that pathological spikes cannot destabilize the weighting.
3. Adaptive weight around 0.5:
`w_t = 0.5 + oscillation_range v_t`, giving `w_t ∈ `, so with a default `range = 0.20` the weight stays between 0.30 and 0.70, which is wide enough to matter but narrow enough to preserve HA identity.
4. EMA-like open update:
On the very first bar the open is seeded from a stable combination of the raw open and close, and thereafter the update is
`HA_open_t = w_t HA_open_{t−1} + (1 − w_t) HA_close_{t−1}`,
which is equivalent to an EMA where higher `w_t` means heavier inertia (more smoothing) and lower `w_t` means stronger pull to the latest price information (more responsiveness).
5. High and low follow classic HA composition:
`HA_high_t = max(High_t, max(HA_open_t, HA_close_t))`,
`HA_low_t = min(Low_t, min(HA_open_t, HA_close_t))`,
thereby keeping visual semantics consistent with standard HA so that your existing reading of bodies, wicks, and transitions still applies.
Why this reduces noise and fake signals in practice
Fake flips in HA typically occur when a fixed blending rule is forced to process candles during a volatility surge, producing rapid alternations around pivots or within wide intrabar ranges; by increasing smoothing exactly when ATR jumps relative to its baseline, the adaptive open stabilizes the candle body progression and suppresses transient color changes, while in the opposite scenario of compressed ranges, the reduced smoothing allows small but persistent directional pressure to reflect in candle color earlier, which reduces the tendency to enter late after multiple slow transitions.
Parameter guide (what each input really does)
ATR Length (default 14): controls both the ATR and its baseline window, where longer values dampen the adaptation by making the baseline slower and the deviation smaller, which is helpful for noisy lower timeframes, while shorter values make the regime detector more reactive.
Oscillation Range (default 0.20): sets the maximum distance from 0.5 that the weight may travel, so increasing it towards 0.25–0.30 yields stronger smoothing in turbulence and faster response in calm periods, whereas decreasing it to 0.10–0.15 keeps the behavior closer to classical HA and is useful if your strategy already includes heavy downstream smoothing.
Adapt Sensitivity (default 6.0): multiplies the normalized ATR deviation before clamping, such that higher sensitivity accelerates adaptation to regime shifts, while lower sensitivity produces gradual transitions; negative values intentionally invert the mapping (higher vol → less smoothing) and are generally not recommended unless you are testing a counter-intuitive hypothesis.
Reading the candles and the optional diagnostic
You interpret colors and bodies just like with normal HA, but you can additionally enable the Adaptive Weight diagnostic plot to see the regime in real time, where values drifting up toward the upper bound indicate a turbulent context that is being deliberately smoothed, and values gliding down toward the lower bound indicate a calm environment in which the indicator chooses to move faster, which can be valuable for discretionary confirmation when deciding whether a fresh color shift is likely to stick.
Practical workflows and combinations
Trend-following entries: use color continuity and body expansion as usual, but expect fewer spurious alternations around news spikes or into liquidity gaps; pairing with structure (swing highs/lows, breaks of internal ranges) keeps entries disciplined.
Exit management: when the diagnostic weight remains elevated for an extended period, you can be stricter with exit triggers because flips are less likely to be accidental noise; conversely, when the weight is depressed, consider earlier partials since the indicator is intentionally more nimble.
Multi-asset, multi-TF: the adaptation is especially helpful if you rotate instruments with very different vol profiles or hop across timeframes, since you will not need to retune a fixed smoothing parameter every time conditions change.
Behavior, constraints, and performance
The script does not repaint historical bars and uses only past information on closed candles, yet just like any candle-based visualization the current live bar will update until it closes, so you should avoid acting on mid-bar flips without a rule that accounts for bar close; there are no `security()` calls or higher-timeframe lookups, which keeps performance light and execution deterministic, and the clamping of the volatility signal ensures numerical stability even during extreme ATR spikes.
Sensible defaults and quick tuning
Start with the defaults (`ATR 14`, `Range 0.20`, `Sensitivity 6.0`) and observe the weight plot across a few volatile events; if you still see too many flips in turbulence, either raise `Range` to 0.25 or trim `Sensitivity` to 4–5 so that the weight can move high but does not overreact, and if the indicator feels too slow in quiet markets, lower `Range` toward 0.15 or raise `Sensitivity` to 7–8 to bias the weight a bit more aggressively downward when conditions compress.
What this indicator is—and is not
Adaptive Heikin Ashi is a context-aware visualization layer that improves the signal-to-noise ratio and reduces fake flips by modulating smoothing with volatility, but it is not a complete trading system, it does not predict the future, and it should be combined with structure, risk controls, and position management that fit your market and timeframe; always forward-test on your instruments, and remember that even adaptive smoothing can delay recognition at sharp turning points when volatility remains elevated.

SMC Volatility Liquidity Prothis one’s a confluence signaler. it fires “BUY CALL” / “BUY PUT” labels only when four things line up at once: trend, volatility squeeze, a liquidity sweep, and MACD momentum. quick breakdown:
what each block does
Trend filter (context)
ema50 > ema200 ⇒ trendUp
ema50 < ema200 ⇒ trendDn
Plots both EMAs for visual context.
Volatility compression (setup)
20-period Bollinger Bands (stdev 2).
bb_squeeze is true when current band width < its 20-SMA ⇒ price is compressed (potential energy building).
Liquidity sweep (trigger)
Tracks 20-bar swing high/low.
Long sweep: high > swingHigh ⇒ price just poked above the prior 20-bar high (took buy-side liquidity).
Short sweep: low < swingLow ⇒ price just poked below the prior 20-bar low (took sell-side liquidity).
MACD momentum (confirmation)
Standard MACD(12,26,9) histogram.
Bullish: hist > 0 and rising versus previous bar.
Bearish: hist < 0 and falling.
the actual entry signals
LongEntry = trendUp AND bb_squeeze AND liquiditySweepLong AND macdBullish
→ prints a green “BUY CALL” label below the bar.
ShortEntry = trendDn AND bb_squeeze AND liquiditySweepShort AND macdBearish
→ prints a red “BUY PUT” label above the bar.
alerts & dashboard
Alerts: fires when those long/short conditions hit so you can set TradingView alerts on them.
On-chart dashboard (bottom-right):
Trend (Bullish/Bearish/Neutral)
Squeeze (Yes/No)
Liquidity (Long/Short/None)
Momentum (Bullish/Bearish/Neutral)
Current Signal (BUY CALL / BUY PUT / WAIT)
(btw the comment says “2 columns × 5 rows” but the table is actually 5 columns × 2 rows—values under each label across the row.)
what it’s trying to capture (in plain english)
Trade with the higher-timeframe bias (EMA 50 over 200).
Enter as volatility compresses (bands tight) and a sweep grabs stops beyond a 20-bar extreme.
Only pull the trigger when momentum agrees (MACD hist direction & side of zero).
caveats / tips
It’s an indicator, not a strategy—no entries/exits/backtests baked in.
Signals are strict (4 filters), so you’ll get fewer but “cleaner” prints; still not magical.
The liquidity-sweep check uses the prior bar’s 20-bar high/low ( ), so on bar close it won’t repaint; intrabar alerts may feel jumpy if you alert “on every tick.”
Consider adding:
Exit logic (e.g., ATR stop + take-profit, or opposite signal).
Minimum squeeze duration (e.g., bb_squeeze true for N bars) to avoid one-bar dips in width.
Cool-down after a signal to prevent clustering.
Session/time or volume filter if you only want liquid hours.
if you want, I can convert this into a backtestable strategy() version with ATR-based stops/targets and a few toggles, so you can see stats right away.

AMHA + 4 EMAs + EMA50/200 Counter + Avg10CrossesDescription:
This script combines two types of Heikin-Ashi visualization with multiple Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) and a counting function for EMA50/200 crossovers. The goal is to make trends more visible, measure recurring market cycles, and provide statistical context without generating trading signals.
Logic in Detail:
Adaptive Median Heikin-Ashi (AMHA):
Instead of the classic Heikin-Ashi calculation, this method uses the median of Open, High, Low, and Close. The result smooths out price movements, emphasizes trend direction, and reduces market noise.
Standard Heikin-Ashi Overlay:
Classic HA candles are also drawn in the background for comparison and transparency. Both HA types can be shifted below the chart’s price action using a customizable Offset (Ticks) parameter.
EMA Structure:
Five exponential moving averages (21, 50, 100, 200, 500) are included to highlight different trend horizons. EMA50 and EMA200 are emphasized, as their crossovers are widely monitored as potential trend signals. EMA21 and EMA100 serve as additional structure layers, while EMA500 represents the long-term trend.
EMA50/200 Counter:
The script counts how many bars have passed since the last EMA50/200 crossover. This makes it easy to see the age of the current trend phase. A colored label above the chart displays the current counter.
Average of the Last 10 Crossovers (Avg10Crosses):
The script stores the last 10 completed count phases and calculates their average length. This provides historical context and allows traders to compare the current cycle against typical past behavior.
Benefits for Analysis:
Clearer trend visualization through adaptive Heikin-Ashi calculation.
Multi-EMA setup for quick structural assessment.
Objective measurement of trend phase duration.
Statistical insight from the average cycle length of past EMA50/200 crosses.
Flexible visualization through adjustable offset positioning below the price chart.
Usage:
Add the indicator to your chart.
For a clean look, you may switch your chart type to “Line” or hide standard candlesticks.
Interpret visual signals:
White candles = bullish phases
Orange candles = bearish phases
EMAs = structural trend filters (e.g., EMA200 as a long-term boundary)
The counter label shows the current number of bars since the last cross, while Avg10 represents the historical mean.
Special Feature:
This script is not a trading system. It does not provide buy/sell recommendations. Instead, it serves as a visual and statistical tool for market structure analysis. The unique combination of Adaptive Median Heikin-Ashi, multi-EMA framework, and EMA50/200 crossover statistics makes it especially useful for trend-followers and swing traders who want to add cycle-length analysis to their toolkit.

RSI Signals Multi-Layer RSI System with Classical Divergence**DrFX RSI Signals Fixed** is an advanced RSI-based trading system that combines duration-filtered extreme conditions with classical divergence detection and momentum confirmation. This enhanced version addresses common RSI false signals through multi-layer filtering while adding proper divergence analysis for identifying high-probability reversal points.
**Core Innovation & Originality**
This indicator uniquely integrates five analytical layers:
1. **Duration-Validated Extreme Zones** - Confirms RSI has remained overbought/oversold for minimum bars within lookback period
2. **Classical Divergence Detection** - Proper implementation comparing swing highs/lows in both price and RSI
3. **Momentum Confirmation Signals** - RSI crossing 50-line after extreme conditions for trend confirmation
4. **Multi-Signal Classification** - Four distinct signal types (Buy, Sell, Strong Buy, Strong Sell, Momentum)
5. **Visual Zone Highlighting** - Background coloring for instant extreme zone identification
**Technical Implementation & Improvements**
**Enhanced Duration Filter:**
Unlike the previous version, this system uses a refined approach:
```
for i = 0 to lookback_bars - 1
if rsi > overbought
barsInOverbought := barsInOverbought + 1
```
This counts actual bars within the lookback period (default 20 bars) where RSI was extreme, requiring minimum duration (default 4 bars) for signal validation.
**Classical Divergence Detection:**
The system implements proper divergence analysis, a significant improvement over simple delta comparison:
**Bullish Divergence Logic:**
- Price makes lower low: `low < prevPriceLow`
- RSI makes higher low: `rsi > prevRsiLow`
- Indicates weakening downward momentum despite lower prices
**Bearish Divergence Logic:**
- Price makes higher high: `high > prevPriceHigh`
- RSI makes lower high: `rsi < prevRsiHigh`
- Indicates weakening upward momentum despite higher prices
**Signal Generation Framework:**
**Primary Signals:**
- **Buy Signal**: RSI crosses above oversold (30) after meeting duration requirements
- **Sell Signal**: RSI crosses below overbought (70) after meeting duration requirements
**Strong Signals:**
- **Strong Buy**: Buy signal + bullish divergence confirmation
- **Strong Sell**: Sell signal + bearish divergence confirmation
**Momentum Signals:**
- **Momentum Buy (M+)**: RSI crosses above 50 after recent oversold conditions
- **Momentum Sell (M-)**: RSI crosses below 50 after recent overbought conditions
**What Makes This Version Superior**
**Compared to Standard RSI:**
1. **Duration Requirement**: Prevents signals on brief RSI spikes
2. **Lookback Validation**: Ensures extreme conditions actually occurred recently
3. **Proper Divergence**: Uses swing high/low comparison, not just bar-to-bar deltas
4. **Momentum Layer**: Adds trend confirmation via 50-line crosses
**Compared to Previous Version:**
1. **Pine Script v5**: Modern syntax with improved performance
2. **Configurable Parameters**: All values adjustable via inputs
3. **Better Divergence**: Classical divergence logic replaces simplified delta method
4. **Additional Signals**: Momentum confirmations for trend following
5. **Visual Enhancements**: Background coloring and improved signal differentiation
6. **Alert System**: Built-in alert conditions for all signal types
**Parameter Configuration**
**Customizable Inputs:**
- **Overbought Level** (70): Upper threshold, range 50-90
- **Oversold Level** (30): Lower threshold, range 10-50
- **RSI Period** (14): Calculation period, range 2-50
- **Minimum Duration** (4): Required bars in extreme zone, range 1-20
- **Lookback Bars** (20): Period to check for extreme conditions, range 5-100
- **Divergence Lookback** (5): Period for divergence swing comparison, range 2-20
**Optimization Guidelines:**
- **Shorter Duration** (2-3): More frequent signals, higher noise
- **Longer Duration** (5-7): Fewer signals, better quality
- **Smaller Lookback** (10-15): Faster response, may miss context
- **Larger Lookback** (30-50): More context, potentially delayed signals
**Signal Interpretation Guide**
**Visual Signal Hierarchy:**
**Light Green Triangle (Buy):**
- RSI recovered from oversold
- Duration requirements met
- Entry on reversal from oversold territory
**Light Red Triangle (Sell):**
- RSI declined from overbought
- Duration requirements met
- Entry on reversal from overbought territory
**Blue Triangle (Strong Buy):**
- Buy signal with bullish divergence
- Highest probability long setup
- Price made lower low, RSI made higher low
**Magenta Triangle (Strong Sell):**
- Sell signal with bearish divergence
- Highest probability short setup
- Price made higher high, RSI made lower high
**Tiny Green Circle (M+):**
- RSI crossed above 50 after oversold
- Momentum confirmation for uptrend
- Secondary entry or trend confirmation
**Tiny Red Circle (M-):**
- RSI crossed below 50 after overbought
- Momentum confirmation for downtrend
- Secondary entry or trend confirmation
**Background Coloring:**
- **Light Red Background**: RSI > 70 (overbought zone)
- **Light Green Background**: RSI < 30 (oversold zone)
**Trading Strategy Application**
**Conservative Approach (Strong Signals Only):**
1. Wait for blue/magenta triangles (divergence confirmed)
2. Enter on signal bar close or next bar open
3. Stop loss beyond recent swing high/low
4. Target minimum 2:1 risk/reward ratio
**Aggressive Approach (All Signals):**
1. Take light green/red triangles for earlier entries
2. Use momentum circles as confirmation
3. Tighter stops with partial profit taking
4. Scale positions based on signal strength
**Momentum Trading:**
1. Use momentum signals (M+/M-) as trend filters
2. Take primary signals aligned with momentum direction
3. Avoid counter-momentum signals in strong trends
4. Exit when opposing momentum signal appears
**Multi-Timeframe Strategy:**
1. Check higher timeframe for strong signals
2. Execute on lower timeframe primary signals
3. Use momentum signals for position management
4. Align all timeframe signals for best probability
**Optimal Market Conditions**
**Best Performance:**
- Mean-reverting markets with clear RSI extremes
- Range-bound or consolidating conditions
- Markets respecting support/resistance levels
- Timeframes: 15min to 4H for active trading
**Strong Signal Advantages:**
- Divergence signals often mark major turning points
- Work well at market structure levels
- Effective in both trending and ranging markets
- Higher success rate justifies waiting for setup
**Momentum Signal Benefits:**
- Confirms trend direction after extreme readings
- Useful for adding to positions
- Helps avoid counter-trend trades
- Works well in trending markets where reversals fail
**Technical Advantages**
**Divergence Accuracy:**
The improved divergence detection uses proper swing analysis rather than simple bar-to-bar comparison. This identifies genuine momentum shifts where price action diverges from oscillator movement over a meaningful period.
**Duration Logic:**
The for-loop counting method ensures the system checks actual RSI values within the lookback period, not just whether RSI touched levels. This distinguishes between sustained conditions and brief spikes.
**Momentum Filter:**
The 50-line crosses after extreme conditions provide an additional confirmation layer, helping traders distinguish between failed reversals (no momentum follow-through) and sustained moves (momentum confirmation).
**Risk Management Integration**
**Signal Priority:**
1. **Highest**: Strong signals with divergence (blue/magenta triangles)
2. **Medium**: Primary signals without divergence (light green/red triangles)
3. **Confirmation**: Momentum signals (tiny circles)
**Position Sizing:**
- Larger positions on strong signals (divergence present)
- Standard positions on primary signals
- Smaller positions or adds on momentum signals
**Stop Placement:**
- Beyond recent swing structure
- Below/above divergence swing low/high for strong signals
- Trail stops when momentum signals align with position
**Alert System**
Built-in alert conditions for:
- Buy Signal: RSI buy without divergence
- Sell Signal: RSI sell without divergence
- Strong Buy Alert: Buy with bullish divergence
- Strong Sell Alert: Sell with bearish divergence
Configure alerts via TradingView's alert system to receive notifications for chosen signal types.
**Important Considerations**
**Strengths:**
- Multiple confirmation layers reduce false signals
- Classical divergence improves reversal detection
- Momentum signals add trend-following capability
- Highly customizable for different trading styles
- No repainting - all signals fixed at bar close
**Limitations:**
- Duration requirements may cause missed quick reversals
- Divergence lookback period affects sensitivity
- Not suitable as standalone system
- Requires understanding of RSI principles and divergence concepts
**Best Practices:**
- Combine with price action and support/resistance
- Use higher timeframe context for directional bias
- Respect overall market trend and structure
- Implement proper position sizing based on signal type
- Test parameters on your specific instrument and timeframe
**Comparison Summary**
This enhanced version represents a significant upgrade:
- Upgraded to Pine Script v5 modern standards
- Proper classical divergence detection (not simplified)
- Added momentum confirmation signals
- Fully customizable parameters via inputs
- Visual background zone highlighting
- Comprehensive alert system
- Better signal differentiation through color coding
The system transforms basic RSI analysis into a multi-dimensional trading tool suitable for various market conditions and trading styles.
**Disclaimer**: This indicator is designed for educational and analytical purposes. While the multi-layer filtering and classical divergence detection improve upon standard RSI implementations, no indicator guarantees profitable trades. The duration filtering reduces false signals but may delay entries. Divergence signals, while statistically favorable, can fail in strong trending conditions. Always use proper risk management, position sizing, and stop-loss orders. Consider multiple confirmation methods and market context before making trading decisions. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Liquidity+FVG+OB Strategy (v6)How the strategy works (summary)
Entry Long when a Bullish FVG is detected (optionally requires a recent Bullish OB).
Entry Short when a Bearish FVG is detected (optionally requires a recent Bearish OB).
Stop Loss and Take Profit are placed using ATR multiples (configurable).
Position sizing is fixed contract/lot size (configurable).
You can require OB confirmation (within ob_confirm_window bars).
Alerts still exist and visuals are preserved.
Liquidity + FVG + OB Markings (Fixed v6)This indicator is built for price-action traders.
It automatically finds and plots three key structures on your chart:
Liquidity Levels – swing highs & lows that often get targeted by price.
Fair-Value Gaps (FVG) – inefficient price gaps between candles.
Order-Blocks (OB) – zones created by strong, high-volume impulsive candles.
It also provides alerts and a small information table so you can quickly gauge the current market context.
X VIBVolume Imbalance Zones
X VIB highlights price-levels where buying or selling pressure overwhelmed the opposing side within a single bar transition, leaving a void that the market often revisits. The script paints those voids as boxes so you can quickly see where liquidity may rest, where price may pause or react, and which imbalances persist across sessions.
What it plots
For each completed calculation bar (your chart’s timeframe or a higher timeframe you choose), the indicator draws a box that spans the prior bar’s close to the current bar’s open—only when that bar-to-bar transition exhibits a valid volume imbalance (VIB) by the selected rules. Boxes are time-anchored from the previous bar’s time to the current bar’s time close, and they are capped to a configurable count so the chart remains readable.
Two ways to define “Volume Imbalance”
X VIB calculates imbalances in two complementary ways. Both techniques isolate bar-to-bar displacement that reflects one-sided pressure, but they differ in strictness and how much confirmation they require.
Continuity VIB (Bar-to-Bar Displacement)
A strict definition that requires aligned progress and overlap between consecutive bars. In practical terms, a bullish continuity VIB demands that the new bar advances beyond the prior bar’s close, opens above it, and maintains upward progress without erasing the displacement; the bearish case mirrors this to the downside.
Use when: you want the cleanest, most structurally reliable voids that reflect decisive initiative flow.
Effect on boxes: typically fewer, higher-quality zones that mark locations of strong one-sided intent.
Gap-Qualified VIB (Displacement with Gap Confirmation)
A confirmatory definition that treats the bar-to-bar displacement as an imbalance only if the transition also observes a protective “gap-like” relationship with surrounding prices. This extra condition filters out many borderline transitions and emphasizes voids that were less likely to be traded through on their formation.
Use when: you want additional confirmation that the void had genuine follow-through pressure at birth.
Effect on boxes: often slightly fewer but “stickier” zones that can attract price on retests.
Both modes are drawn identically on the chart (as boxes spanning the displacement). Their difference is purely in the qualification of what counts as a VIB. You can display either set independently or together to compare how each mode surfaces structure.
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) logic
You can compute imbalances on a higher timeframe (e.g., 15-minute) while viewing a lower timeframe chart. When MTF is active, X VIB:
Samples open, high, low, close, time, and time_close from the selected HTF in a single, synchronized request (no gaps, no lookahead).
Only evaluates and draws boxes once per HTF bar close, ensuring clean, stable zones that don’t repaint intra-bar.
How traders use these zones
Reversion into voids: Price often returns to “fill” part of a void before deciding on continuation or reversal.
Context for entries/exits: VIB boxes provide precise, mechanically derived levels for limit entries, scale-outs, and invalidation points.
Confluence: Combine with session opens, HTF levels, or volatility bands to grade setups. Continuity VIBs can mark impulse anchors; Gap-Qualified VIBs often mark stickier pockets.

Color & Opacity: Pick the box fill and border intensity that suits your theme.
# Instances: Cap how many historical boxes remain on the chart to avoid clutter.
Notes & best practices
Signal density: Continuity VIBs tend to be more frequent on fast charts; Gap-Qualified VIBs are more selective. Try both and keep what aligns with your trade plan.
MTF discipline: When using a higher calc timeframe, analyze reactions primarily at that timeframe’s pace to avoid over-fitting to noise.
Lifecycle awareness: Not all voids fill. Track which boxes persist; durable voids often define the map of the session.
Strong Body Close Candle (90%)This indicator highlights Strong Body Close Candles, which are single bars where the real body makes up the vast majority of the total range and the close is positioned very close to the candle’s extreme. By default, the script looks for candles where the body is at least 90% of the full high-low range, and the close falls within the top 10% (for bullish) or bottom 10% (for bearish). These settings ensure that only very strong, conviction-driven candles are marked. The script plots labels above or below qualifying bars, colors the candle accordingly, and provides alert conditions so you can be notified in real time when such a candle forms.
Both percentages are fully adjustable so you can fine-tune the strictness of the definition. For example, if you change the body threshold to 85% and the close-to-extreme threshold to 15%, the script will highlight candles where the body makes up at least 85% of the total range and the close is within 15% of the high or low. This adjustment allows for a slightly looser definition, catching more frequent signals while still maintaining strength criteria. Built-in alerts let you choose between bullish and bearish signals separately (or both), ensuring you won’t miss setups even when you’re away from the chart.
This tool is flexible across timeframes and instruments. On lower timeframes, signals may appear more frequently, highlighting intraday momentum bursts, while on higher timeframes such as daily or weekly charts, these signals often represent periods of strong directional conviction. Traders can combine this indicator with additional filters such as trend direction, volume confirmation, VWAP, or moving averages to improve reliability and fit it into their broader strategy. Because the body and close thresholds are user-defined, you have control over whether the indicator is tuned to rare but powerful candles (stricter settings) or more frequent signals (looser settings).
The indicator is designed to be non-repainting since it only evaluates candles after they close. It can be used purely visually with chart labels and bar coloring or as part of an automated workflow with TradingView alerts. Alerts are triggered on bar close whenever a bullish or bearish strong body close candle is detected, allowing you to integrate them into your trading process via pop-ups, emails, mobile notifications, or webhooks. Whether you’re looking for sharp reversals, momentum continuation signals, or simply want to filter out weaker candles, this tool provides a clear and adjustable framework for identifying high-conviction bars.

Tristan's Star: 15m Shooting Star DetectorThis script is designed to be used on the 1-minute chart , but it analyzes the market as if you were watching the 15-minute candles.
Every cluster of 15 one-minute candles is grouped together and treated as a single 15-minute candle.
When that 15-minute “synthetic” candle looks like a shooting star pattern (small body near the low, long upper wick, short lower wick, bearish bias), the script triggers a signal.
At the close of that 15-minute cluster, the script will:
Plot a single “Sell” label on the last 1-minute bar of the group.
Draw a horizontal line across the 15 bars at the high, showing the level that created the shooting star.
Optionally display a table cell in the corner with the word “SELL.”
This lets you stay on the 1-minute timeframe for precision entries and exits, while still being alerted when the higher-timeframe (15-minute) shows a bearish reversal pattern.
