Statistcal Daily Profile & Ranges# Statistical Daily Profile & Ranges - TradingView Publication Guide
## Overview
The **Statistical Daily Profile & Ranges** indicator is a comprehensive tool designed to analyze intraday session behavior and daily range characteristics. It combines Average Daily Range (ADR) projection levels with detailed session-by-session statistics and probability-based trading insights derived from historical price action patterns.
## What This Indicator Does
This indicator provides traders with three core analytical components:
1. **ADR Projection Levels** - Dynamic support/resistance levels based on historical daily ranges
2. **Session Range Analysis** - Visual boxes and statistical breakdowns for four key trading sessions
3. **Dynamic Probability Display** - Real-time probability statistics based on overnight session relationships
## How It Works
### Average Daily Range (ADR) Calculation
The indicator calculates the average daily range over a user-defined lookback period (default: 10 days) and projects this range from each day's opening price. This creates two key levels:
- **ADR High**: Opening price + average daily range
- **ADR Low**: Opening price - average daily range
- **ADR Median**: The opening price (middle of the projected range)
These levels are recalculated at the start of each trading day and extend forward, providing dynamic support and resistance zones based on recent volatility characteristics.
### Session Tracking & Statistics
The indicator monitors four distinct trading sessions (times in Eastern Time):
1. **Asia Session** (8:00 PM - 2:00 AM)
2. **London Session** (2:00 AM - 8:00 AM)
3. **NY Open** (8:00 AM - 9:00 AM)
4. **NY Initial Balance** (9:30 AM - 10:30 AM)
For each session, the indicator:
- Draws a colored box showing the session's high-to-low range
- Tracks the opening price, high, and low
- Stores historical data for statistical analysis
- Calculates average ranges by day of week (Monday through Friday)
The session statistics are displayed in a customizable table showing average point ranges for each session across different weekdays, helping traders identify which sessions and days typically produce the most movement.
### Dynamic Probability System
The indicator analyzes the relationship between the Asia and London sessions to determine the current market setup. After the London session closes, it automatically detects one of four possible conditions:
**1. London Engulfs Asia**
- London session breaks both above Asia's high AND below Asia's low
- This indicates strong momentum during the European session
- Most common occurrence pattern
**2. Asia Engulfs London**
- Asia session range completely contains the London session range
- Indicates consolidation during London hours
- Relatively rare pattern (occurs approximately 5.36% of the time)
**3. London Partially Engulfs Upwards**
- London breaks above Asia's high but stays above Asia's low
- Suggests bullish momentum continuation from Asia into London
**4. London Partially Engulfs Downwards**
- London breaks below Asia's low but stays below Asia's high
- Suggests bearish momentum continuation from Asia into London
Once a condition is detected, the indicator displays a probability table showing historically observed outcomes for that specific setup, including:
- Probability of NY session taking out key levels (Asia high/low, London high/low)
- Probability of NY session engulfing the entire overnight range
- Directional bias for NY Cash session (9:30 AM - 4:00 PM)
## How to Use This Indicator
### Initial Setup
1. Add the indicator to your chart (works on any intraday timeframe below Daily)
2. Adjust the **ADR Days** setting (default: 10) to control the lookback period for range calculation
3. Adjust the **Session Lookback Days** setting (default: 50) to determine how much historical data feeds the statistics tables
### Reading the ADR Levels
- Use the **ADR High** and **ADR Low** lines as potential profit targets or areas where price may encounter resistance
- The **ADR Median** line represents the opening price and can act as a pivot point for intraday directional bias
- If price reaches the ADR High early in the session, it suggests strong bullish momentum; conversely for ADR Low
- These levels adapt daily based on recent volatility, making them more responsive than static levels
### Interpreting Session Boxes
- **Session boxes** visually highlight when each trading session is active and its price range
- Larger boxes indicate higher volatility during that session
- Compare current session ranges to the statistical averages shown in the table
- Sessions that are unusually quiet or active relative to historical averages may signal compression or expansion
### Using the Session Statistics Table
- The table shows average point ranges for each session broken down by weekday
- Identify which sessions typically produce the most movement on specific days
- For example, if London on Thursdays averages 40 points while Mondays average 25 points, you can adjust position sizing or expectations accordingly
- The **Total** column shows the overall average across all days
- Sample sizes (shown in brackets if enabled) indicate data reliability
### Trading with the Probability Table
The probability table updates dynamically after the London session closes and shows statistically probable outcomes based on 12 years of NQ futures data.
**Important Limitations:**
- **These probabilities are derived from NQ (Nasdaq E-mini futures) data only**
- **Do NOT apply these probability statistics to other instruments** (ES, stocks, forex, etc.)
- The probabilities represent historical frequencies, not guarantees
- Always combine with your own analysis, risk management, and market context
**How to Apply the Probabilities:**
When **London Engulfs Asia**:
- Watch for NY session to take out London's extremes (72.33% probability for high, 71.12% for low)
- Slight bullish bias in NY Cash session (54.80% vs 45.20%)
- Lower probability of complete overnight engulfment (44.13%)
When **Asia Engulfs London** (rare - 5.36% occurrence):
- Higher probability NY takes Asia's high (75.86%)
- Moderately high probability NY takes Asia's low (65.52%)
- Slight increase in bullish bias (58.42% vs 41.58%)
- Recognize this as an unusual setup
When **London Partially Engulfs Upwards**:
- Very high probability NY takes London high (81.51%)
- Strong probability NY takes London low (64.45%)
- Moderate probability NY takes Asian low (53.16%)
- Slight bullish bias (55.52%)
When **London Partially Engulfs Downwards**:
- Very high probability NY takes London low (75.29%)
- Strong probability NY takes London high (68.80%)
- Moderate probability NY takes Asian high (56.44%)
- Slight bullish bias maintained (52.99%)
### Practical Trading Applications
**Scenario 1: Range Projection**
If the ADR is 500 points and the market opens at 25,000:
- ADR High: 25,500 (potential resistance/target)
- ADR Low: 24,500 (potential support/target)
- Monitor how price interacts with these levels throughout the day
**Scenario 2: Session-Based Trading**
Using the statistics table, you notice London on Wednesdays averages 35 points. During a Wednesday London session:
- If London has already moved 30 points, the session may be exhausting its typical range
- If London has only moved 15 points with an hour remaining, there may be expansion potential
- Adjust stop losses and targets based on typical session behavior
**Scenario 3: Probability-Based Setup**
It's 8:05 AM ET and the indicator shows "London Partially Engulfs Upwards":
- You now know there's an 81.51% historical probability NY will take out London's high
- There's a 53.16% probability NY will reach down to Asia's low
- The NY Cash session has a slight bullish bias (55.52%)
- Consider this alongside your technical analysis for directional bias and level targeting
## Customization Options

- **Label Colors**: Customize text colors for all labels
### Table Settings
- **Session Stats Table**: Position (9 locations available), size (Tiny to Huge), toggle on/off
- **Sample Sizes**: Show/hide the number of historical samples used for each calculation
- **Probabilities Table**: Separate position and size controls, toggle on/off
### Session Times
- Each session's time range can be customized to fit different markets or preferences
- All times are in Eastern Time (America/New_York timezone)
## Technical Notes
### Data Requirements
- The indicator requires sufficient historical data based on your lookback settings
- Minimum recommended: 50+ days of intraday data for reliable statistics
- Works on any timeframe below Daily (1-minute, 5-minute, 15-minute, etc.)
### Calculation Methodology
- **ADR Calculation**: Simple average of absolute daily high-low ranges
- **Session Statistics**: Mean average of ranges for each session filtered by day of week
- **Condition Detection**: Boolean logic comparing session high/low relationships
- All calculations update in real-time as new bars form
### Probability Data Source
The probability statistics displayed in the dynamic table are derived from:
- **Dataset**: 12 years of NQ (Nasdaq E-mini futures) historical data
- **Methodology**: Frequency analysis of outcomes following specific setup conditions
- **Time Period**: Multiple market cycles including various volatility regimes
**Critical Warning**: These probabilities are specific to NQ and reflect that instrument's behavior patterns. Market microstructure, participant behavior, and volatility characteristics differ significantly across instruments. Do not apply these NQ-derived probabilities to other markets (ES, RTY, YM, individual stocks, forex, commodities, etc.).
## Best Practices
1. **Combine with Other Analysis**: Use this indicator as one component of a complete trading methodology, not a standalone system
2. **Respect Risk Management**: Probabilities are not certainties; always use proper position sizing and stop losses
3. **Context Matters**: High-impact news events, holiday trading, and extreme volatility can invalidate typical patterns
4. **Verify Statistics**: Monitor your own results and compare to the displayed probabilities
5. **Adapt Session Times**: If trading instruments with different active hours, adjust session times accordingly
6. **Regular Calibration**: Periodically review if the session averages and probabilities remain relevant to current market conditions
## Understanding Originality
This indicator is original in its approach to combining three analytical frameworks into a single tool:
1. **Dynamic ADR Projection**: Unlike static pivot points, these levels adapt daily based on recent volatility
2. **Session-Specific Statistics**: Goes beyond simple volume profiles by quantifying average ranges for specific time windows across weekdays
3. **Conditional Probability Display**: Automatically detects overnight session relationships and displays relevant probability data rather than showing all scenarios simultaneously
The conditional logic system that determines which probability set to display is a key differentiator—traders only see the statistics relevant to the current market setup, reducing information overload and improving decision-making clarity.
## Summary
The **Statistical Daily Profile & Ranges** indicator provides traders with a comprehensive framework for understanding daily range potential, session-specific behavior patterns, and probability-based setup analysis. By combining ADR projection levels with detailed session statistics and dynamic probability displays, traders gain multiple perspectives on potential price movement within the trading day.
The indicator is most effective when used to:
- Set realistic profit targets based on average daily range
- Identify which sessions typically produce movement on specific weekdays
- Understand probability-weighted outcomes for different overnight setup conditions (NQ only)
- Visualize session ranges and compare them to historical averages
Remember that all statistical analysis reflects historical patterns, and market behavior can change. Always combine indicator signals with sound risk management, proper position sizing, and your own market analysis.

Elev8+ Impulse Levels | Smart Support & ResistanceElev8+ Impulse Levels | Smart Support & Resistance
Ever notice price rejecting “empty” areas on the chart—like it remembered something that isn’t obvious?
That “something” is often Institutional Impulse : footprints left behind by large, aggressive moves that get defended again days or weeks later .
Elev8+ Impulse Levels automatically detects these moments and projects the most important prices forward so you can see the structure most traders miss.
— — —
🧠 How It Works (The Logic)
This is not a typical support/resistance tool. It does not hunt swing highs/lows.
It looks for Market Intent —the “Perfect Storm” when two conditions align:
Volume Spike — buying/selling pressure significantly exceeds average volume (multiplier-based).
Volatility Expansion — the candle body is unusually large relative to recent ATR.
When both occur, the script marks the event and treats the impulse close as a key “line in the sand” that can influence future reactions.
— — —
🎯 How to Use These Levels
The script includes a Smart Line behavior that changes level styling based on how price interacts with it—so you can quickly separate two core setups:
1) The Defense (Bounce)
Visual: 🟢 Solid line (Fresh / Untouched)
What it means: Price has not yet traded through or “invalidated” the level.
What to look for: First return to the level → rejection / bounce behavior.
Why it matters: Large players often defend prior entries; first tests can react sharply.
2) The Flip (Break & Retest)
Visual: ◌ Dotted line (Broken / Re-priced)
What it means: A candle has closed through the level.
What to look for: Price returns to the dotted level from the other side (“kiss”) → continuation.
Why it matters: Broken support can act as resistance (and vice versa), similar to a breaker concept.
— — —
✨ Key Features
Smart Visualization — levels automatically transition from solid → dotted when broken to reduce chart noise.
Impulse Candle Highlighting — see the exact candle that created the level (origin clarity).
Fully Customizable Sensitivity — tune volume + size thresholds for Crypto, Forex, Futures, or Stocks.

🚀 The Elev8+ Workflow
Think of Impulse Levels as your map : it shows where reactions are most likely.
For entry timing, pair it with Elev8+ Pro Reversal to confirm the moment price reacts at these high-value zones.

Core Suite Essentials This script provides institutional-grade, multi-factor market analysis in a unified toolkit. Its true sophistication lies in its ability to reveal the critical interplay—the "dance"—between its core components, offering a profound view of market structure, momentum, and trend health that goes far beyond standard indicators.
Core Differentiators
Reveals the Core Trend "Dance":
The script masterfully visualizes the critical interaction between three foundational elements:
Ichimoku (Tenkan Sen & Kijun Sen): The leading actors defining momentum and equilibrium.
Bollinger Middle Band (BBM): The dynamic stage of support/resistance.
This interaction provides an institutional-grade read on trend integrity:
Strong Trend: A clean, bullish alignment with the Tenkan Sen leading, the Kijun Sen following, and the BBM acting as firm support confirms a powerful, unified move.
Trend Break Warning: The BBM moving between the Tenkan and Kijun signals convergence and compression, a critical alert of weakening momentum and a potential reversal.
Multi-Timeframe Momentum Confirmation:
This core trend analysis is fortified with a layered momentum gauge, providing a robust, institutional-style confirmation system:
Proprietary RSI-Based Bands across weekly, daily, and intraday frames.
Stochastic Channels (Sto12/Sto50) for additional context on price position.
Strategic Filters for Swing & Position Traders:
For higher-timeframe analysis, it delivers essential quantitative tools:
AnEMA29 Angle: Objectively quantifies trend strength and direction.
PDMDR (DMI Ratio): Measures directional dominance to filter low-conviction markets.
Integrated Cross-Asset Intelligence:
Completing the institutional perspective is a Correlation & Hedging Assistant, contextualizing price action against peers and identifying strategic opportunities based on RSI divergences.
Conclusion
This is not a mere collection of indicators; it is a consolidated analytical workstation. It captures the nuanced "dance" of the core trend triad, layers on multi-timeframe momentum confirmation, and provides strategic filters for timing and cross-asset context. This holistic, institutional-grade approach delivers a definitive and actionable market narrative.

Volume Profile VisionVolume Profile Vision - Complete Description
Overview
Volume Profile Vision (VPV) is an advanced volume profile indicator that visualizes where trading activity has occurred at different price levels over a specified time period. Unlike traditional volume indicators that show volume over time, this indicator displays volume distribution across price levels, helping traders identify key support/resistance zones, fair value areas, and potential reversal points.
What Makes This Indicator Original
Volume Profile Vision introduces several unique features not found in standard volume profile tools:
Dual-Direction Histogram Display:
Unlike conventional volume profiles that only show bars extending in one direction, VPV displays volume bars extending both left (into historical candles) and right (as a traditional histogram). This bi-directional approach allows traders to see exactly where historical price action intersected with high-volume nodes.
Real-Time Candle Highlighting: The indicator dynamically highlights volume bars that intersect with the current candle's price range, making it immediately obvious which volume levels are currently in play.
Four Professional Color Schemes: Each color scheme uses distinct gradient algorithms and visual encoding systems:
Traffic Light: Uses red (POC), green (VA boundaries), yellow (HVN), with grayscale gradients outside the value area
Aurora Glass: Modern cyan-to-magenta gradient with hot magenta POC highlighting
Obsidian Precision: Professional dark theme with white POC and electric cyan accents
Black Ice: Monochromatic cyan family with graduated intensity
Adaptive Transparency System: Automatically adjusts bar transparency based on position relative to value area, with special handling for each color scheme to maintain visual clarity.
Core Concepts & Calculations
Volume Distribution Analysis
The indicator divides the visible price range into user-defined price levels (default: 80 levels) and calculates the total volume traded at each level by:
Scanning back through the specified lookback period (customizable or visible range)
For each historical bar, determining which price levels the bar's high/low range intersects
Accumulating volume for each intersected price level
Optionally filtering by bullish/bearish volume only
Point of Control (POC)
The POC is the price level with the highest traded volume during the analyzed period. This represents the "fairest" price where most traders agreed on value. The indicator marks this with distinct coloring (red in Traffic Light, magenta in Aurora Glass, white in Obsidian Precision, cyan in Black Ice).
Trading Significance: POC acts as a strong magnet for price - markets tend to return to fair value. When price is away from POC, traders watch for:
Mean reversion opportunities when price is far from POC
Rejection signals when price tests POC from above/below
Breakout confirmation when price breaks through and holds beyond POC
Value Area (VA)
The Value Area encompasses the price range where a specified percentage (default: 68%) of all volume traded. This represents the range of "accepted value" by market participants.
Calculation Method:
Start at the POC (highest volume level)
Expand upward and downward, adding adjacent price levels
Always add the level with higher volume next
Continue until accumulated volume reaches the VA percentage threshold
Value Area High (VAH): Upper boundary of accepted value - acts as resistance
Value Area Low (VAL): Lower boundary of accepted value - acts as support
Trading Significance:
Price spending time inside VA indicates market equilibrium
Breakouts above VAH suggest bullish momentum shift
Breakdowns below VAL suggest bearish momentum shift
Returns to VA boundaries often provide high-probability entry zones
High Volume Nodes (HVN)
Price levels with volume exceeding a threshold percentage (default: 80%) of POC volume. These represent areas of strong agreement and consolidation.
Trading Significance:
HVNs act as strong support/resistance zones
Price tends to consolidate at HVNs before making directional moves
Breaking through an HVN often signals strong momentum
Low Volume Nodes (LVN)
Price levels within the Value Area with volume ≤30% of POC volume. These are zones price moved through quickly with minimal consolidation.
Trading Significance:
LVNs represent areas of rejection - price finds little acceptance
Price tends to move rapidly through LVN zones
Useful for setting stop-losses (below LVN for longs, above for shorts)
Can identify potential gaps or "air pockets" in the market structure
Grayscale POC Detection
A secondary POC detection system identifies the highest volume level outside the Value Area (with a 2-level buffer to avoid confusion). This helps identify significant volume accumulation zones that exist beyond the main value area.
How to Use This Indicator
Setup
Choose Lookback Period:
Enable "Use Visible Range" to analyze only what's on your chart
Or set "Fixed Range Lookback Depth" (default: 200 bars) for consistent analysis
Adjust Profile Resolution:
"Number of Price Levels" (default: 80) - higher = more granular analysis, lower = broader zones
Select Color Scheme:
Traffic Light: Best for clear POC/VA/HVN identification
Aurora Glass: Modern aesthetic for dark charts
Obsidian Precision: Professional trader preference
Black Ice: Minimalist single-color family
Visual Customization
Left Extension: How far back the left-side histogram extends into historical candles (default: 490 bars)
Right Extension: Width of the traditional histogram bars on the right (default: 50 bars)
Right Margin: Space between current price bar and histogram (default: 0 for flush alignment)
Left Profile Gap: Space between left-side histogram and candles (default: 0)
Trading Strategies
Strategy 1: Value Area Mean Reversion
Wait for price to move outside the Value Area (above VAH or below VAL)
Look for rejection signals (wicks, bearish/bullish candles)
Enter trades toward the POC
Take profits as price returns to POC or opposite VA boundary
Strategy 2: Breakout Confirmation
Identify when price is consolidating within the Value Area
Wait for a strong close above VAH (bullish) or below VAL (bearish)
Enter on the breakout or on first pullback to the VA boundary
Target previous HVNs or swing highs/lows outside the VA
Strategy 3: POC Support/Resistance
Watch for price approaching the POC level
If approaching from below, look for bullish reversal patterns at POC (support)
If approaching from above, look for bearish reversal patterns at POC (resistance)
Trade in the direction of the bounce with stops beyond the POC
Strategy 4: LVN Fast Movement Zones
Identify LVN zones within the Value Area (marked with "LVN" label)
When price enters an LVN, expect rapid movement through the zone
Avoid entering trades within LVNs
Use LVNs as confirmation of directional momentum
Alert System
The indicator includes 7 customizable alert conditions:
POC Touch: Alerts when price comes within 0.5 ATR of POC
VAH/VAL Touch: Alerts at Value Area boundaries
VA Breakout: Alerts on breakouts above VAH or below VAL
HVN Touch: Alerts when price contacts High Volume Nodes
LVN Entry: Alerts when entering Low Volume zones
POC Shift: Alerts when POC moves to a new price level
Reading the Profile
Price Labels (shown on the right side):
POC: Point of Control - highest volume price level
VAH: Value Area High - upper boundary of accepted value
VAL: Value Area Low - lower boundary of accepted value
LVN: Low Volume Node - expect fast movement through this zone
Color Intensity Interpretation:
Brighter colors = higher volume concentration
Dimmer colors = lower volume
Abrupt color changes = transition between volume zones
Gaps in the histogram = price levels with no trading activity
Technical Details
Volume Accumulation Logic:
For each bar in lookback period:
For each price level:
If bar's high/low range intersects price level:
Add bar's volume to that price level's total
Gradient Algorithm:
Traffic Light: Dual-range piecewise gradient (0-50% and 50-100% volume intensity)
Aurora Glass: Linear cyan-to-magenta interpolation
Obsidian Precision: Dark blue gradient with cyan highlights
Black Ice: Three-stage cyan intensity progression
Real-Time Updates:
The profile recalculates on every bar, including real-time tick data, ensuring the volume distribution always reflects current market structure.
Best Practices
Timeframe Selection: Use higher timeframes (4H, Daily) for swing trading, lower timeframes (5min, 15min) for day trading
Combine with Price Action: Volume profile shows WHERE, price action shows WHEN
Multiple Timeframe Analysis: Check daily VP for major levels, then drill down to intraday for entries
Volume Type Selection: Use "Bullish" volume in uptrends, "Bearish" in downtrends, or "Both" for complete picture
Adjust VA Percentage: 68% (default) captures one standard deviation; try 70% for tighter or 60% for broader value areas
Performance Notes
Maximum bars back: 5000 (handles deep historical analysis)
Maximum boxes: 500 (handles complex profiles)
Optimized calculation: Only recalculates on last bar for efficiency
Real-time capable: Updates as new ticks arrive
VV Moving Average Convergence Divergence # VMACDv3 - Volume-Weighted MACD with A/D Divergence Detection
## Overview
**VMACDv3** (Volume-Weighted Moving Average Convergence Divergence Version 3) is a momentum indicator that applies volume-weighting to traditional MACD calculations on price, while using the Accumulation/Distribution (A/D) line for divergence detection. This hybrid approach combines volume-weighted price momentum with volume distribution analysis for comprehensive market insight.
## Key Features
- **Volume-Weighted Price MACD**: Traditional MACD calculation on price but weighted by volume for earlier signals
- **A/D Divergence Detection**: Identifies when A/D trend diverges from MACD momentum
- **Volume Strength Filtering**: Distinguishes high-volume confirmations from low-volume noise
- **Color-Coded Histogram**: 4-color system showing momentum direction and volume strength

## Difference from ACCDv3
| Aspect | VMACDv3 | ACCDv3 |
|--------|---------|---------|
| **MACD Input** | **Price (Close)** | **A/D Line** |
| **Volume Weighting** | Applied to price | Applied to A/D line |
| **Primary Signal** | Volume-weighted price momentum | Volume distribution momentum |
| **Use Case** | Price momentum with volume confirmation | Volume flow and accumulation/distribution |
| **Sensitivity** | More responsive to price changes | More responsive to volume patterns |
| **Best For** | Trend following, breakouts | Volume analysis, smart money tracking |
**Key Insight**: VMACDv3 shows *where price is going* with volume weight, while ACCDv3 shows *where volume is accumulating/distributing*.
## Components
### 1. Volume-Weighted MACD on Price
Unlike standard MACD that uses simple price EMAs, VMACDv3 weights each price by its corresponding volume:
```
Fast Line = EMA(Price × Volume, 12) / EMA(Volume, 12)
Slow Line = EMA(Price × Volume, 26) / EMA(Volume, 26)
MACD = Fast Line - Slow Line
```
**Benefits of Volume Weighting**:
- High-volume price movements have greater impact
- Filters out low-volume noise and false moves
- Provides earlier trend change signals
- Better reflects institutional activity
### 2. Accumulation/Distribution (A/D) Line
Used for divergence detection, measuring buying/selling pressure:
```
A/D = Σ ((2 × Close - Low - High) / (High - Low)) × Volume
```
- **Rising A/D**: Accumulation (buying pressure)
- **Falling A/D**: Distribution (selling pressure)
- **Doji Handling**: When High = Low, contribution is zero
### 3. Signal Lines
- **MACD Line** (Blue, #2962FF): The fast-slow difference showing momentum
- **Signal Line** (Orange, #FF6D00): EMA or SMA smoothing of MACD
- **Zero Line**: Reference for bullish (above) vs bearish (below) bias
### 4. Histogram Color System
The histogram uses 4 distinct colors based on **direction** and **volume strength**:
| Condition | Color | Meaning |
|-----------|-------|---------|
| Rising + High Volume | **Dark Green** (#1B5E20) | Strong bullish momentum with volume confirmation |
| Rising + Low Volume | **Light Teal** (#26A69A) | Bullish momentum but weak volume (less reliable) |
| Falling + High Volume | **Dark Red** (#B71C1C) | Strong bearish momentum with volume confirmation |
| Falling + Low Volume | **Light Pink** (#FFCDD2) | Bearish momentum but weak volume (less reliable) |
Additional shading:
- **Light Cyan** (#B2DFDB): Positive but not rising (momentum stalling)
- **Bright Red** (#FF5252): Negative and accelerating down
### 5. Divergence Detection
VMACDv3 compares A/D trend against volume-weighted price MACD:
#### Bullish Divergence (Green Background)
- **Condition**: A/D is trending up BUT MACD is negative and trending down
- **Interpretation**: Volume is accumulating while price momentum appears weak
- **Signal**: Smart money accumulation, potential bullish reversal
- **Action**: Look for long entries, especially at support levels
#### Bearish Divergence (Red Background)
- **Condition**: A/D is trending down BUT MACD is positive and trending up
- **Interpretation**: Volume is distributing while price momentum appears strong
- **Signal**: Smart money distribution, potential bearish reversal
- **Action**: Consider exits, avoid new longs, watch for breakdown
## Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| **Source** | Close | OHLC/HLC3/etc | Price source for MACD calculation |
| **Fast Length** | 12 | 1-50 | Period for fast EMA (shorter = more sensitive) |
| **Slow Length** | 26 | 1-100 | Period for slow EMA (longer = smoother) |
| **Signal Smoothing** | 9 | 1-50 | Period for signal line (MACD smoothing) |
| **Signal Line MA Type** | EMA | SMA/EMA | Moving average type for signal calculation |
| **Volume MA Length** | 20 | 5-100 | Period for volume average (strength filter) |
## Usage Guide
### Reading the Indicator
1. **MACD Lines (Blue & Orange)**
- **Blue Line (MACD)**: Volume-weighted price momentum
- **Orange Line (Signal)**: Smoothed trend of MACD
- **Crossovers**: Blue crosses above orange = bullish, below = bearish
- **Distance**: Wider gap = stronger momentum
- **Zero Line Position**: Above = bullish bias, below = bearish bias
2. **Histogram Colors**
- **Dark Green (#1B5E20)**: Strong bullish move with high volume - **most reliable buy signal**
- **Light Teal (#26A69A)**: Bullish but low volume - wait for confirmation
- **Dark Red (#B71C1C)**: Strong bearish move with high volume - **most reliable sell signal**
- **Light Pink (#FFCDD2)**: Bearish but low volume - may be temporary dip
3. **Background Divergence Alerts**
- **Green Background**: A/D accumulating while price weak - potential bottom
- **Red Background**: A/D distributing while price strong - potential top
- Most powerful at key support/resistance levels
### Trading Strategies
#### Strategy 1: Volume-Confirmed Trend Following
1. Wait for MACD to cross above zero line
2. Look for **dark green** histogram bars (high volume confirmation)
3. Enter long on second consecutive dark green bar
4. Hold while histogram remains green
5. Exit when histogram turns light green or red appears
6. Set stop below recent swing low
**Example**:
```
Price: 26,400 → 26,450 (rising)
MACD: -50 → +20 (crosses zero)
Histogram: Light teal → Dark green → Dark green
Volume: 50k → 75k → 90k (increasing)
```
#### Strategy 2: Divergence Reversal Trading
1. Identify divergence background (green = bullish, red = bearish)
2. Confirm with price structure (support/resistance, chart patterns)
3. Wait for MACD to cross signal line in divergence direction
4. Enter on first **dark colored** histogram bar after divergence
5. Set stop beyond divergence area
6. Target previous swing high/low
**Example - Bullish Divergence**:
```
Price: Making lower lows (26,350 → 26,300 → 26,250)
A/D: Rising (accumulation)
MACD: Below zero but starting to curve up
Background: Green shading appears
Entry: MACD crosses signal line + dark green bar
Stop: Below 26,230
Target: 26,450 (previous high)
```
#### Strategy 3: Momentum Scalping
1. Trade only in direction of MACD zero line (above = long, below = short)
2. Enter on dark colored bars only
3. Exit on first light colored bar or opposite color
4. Quick in and out (1-5 minute holds)
5. Tight stops (0.2-0.5% depending on instrument)
#### Strategy 4: Histogram Pattern Trading
**V-Bottom Reversal (Bullish)**:
- Red histogram bars start rising (becoming less negative)
- Forms "V" shape at the bottom
- Transitions to light red → light teal → **dark green**
- Entry: First dark green bar
- Signal: Momentum reversal with volume
**Λ-Top Reversal (Bearish)**:
- Green histogram bars start falling (becoming less positive)
- Forms inverted "V" at the top
- Transitions to light green → light pink → **dark red**
- Entry: First dark red bar
- Signal: Momentum exhaustion with volume
### Multi-Timeframe Analysis
**Recommended Approach**:
1. **Higher Timeframe (15m/1h)**: Identify overall trend direction
2. **Trading Timeframe (5m)**: Time entries using VMACDv3 signals
3. **Lower Timeframe (1m)**: Fine-tune entry prices
**Example Setup**:
```
15-minute: MACD above zero (bullish bias)
5-minute: Dark green histogram appears after pullback
1-minute: Enter on break of recent high with volume
```
### Volume Strength Interpretation
The volume filter compares current volume to 20-period average:
- **Volume > Average**: Dark colors (green/red) - high confidence signals
- **Volume < Average**: Light colors (teal/pink) - lower confidence signals
**Trading Rules**:
- ✓ **Aggressive**: Take all dark colored signals
- ✓ **Conservative**: Only take dark colors that follow 2+ light colors of same type
- ✗ **Avoid**: Trading light colored signals during high volatility
- ✗ **Avoid**: Ignoring volume context during news events
## Technical Details
### Volume-Weighted Calculation
```pine
// Volume-weighted fast EMA
fast_ma = ta.ema(src * volume, fast_length) / ta.ema(volume, fast_length)
// Volume-weighted slow EMA
slow_ma = ta.ema(src * volume, slow_length) / ta.ema(volume, slow_length)
// MACD is the difference
macd = fast_ma - slow_ma
// Signal line smoothing
signal = ta.ema(macd, signal_length) // or ta.sma() if SMA selected
// Histogram
hist = macd - signal
```
### Divergence Detection Logic
```pine
// A/D trending up if above its 5-period SMA
ad_trend = ad > ta.sma(ad, 5)
// MACD trending up if above zero
macd_trend = macd > 0
// Divergence when trends oppose each other
divergence = ad_trend != macd_trend
// Specific conditions for alerts
bullish_divergence = ad_trend and not macd_trend and macd < 0
bearish_divergence = not ad_trend and macd_trend and macd > 0
```
### Histogram Coloring Logic
```pine
hist_color = (hist >= 0
? (hist < hist
? (vol_strength ? #1B5E20 : #26A69A) // Rising: dark/light green
: #B2DFDB) // Positive but falling: cyan
: (hist < hist
? (vol_strength ? #B71C1C : #FFCDD2) // Rising (less negative): dark/light red
: #FF5252)) // Falling more: bright red
```

## Best Practices
### Entry Rules
✓ **Wait for dark colors**: High-volume confirmation is key
✓ **Confirm divergences**: Use with price support/resistance
✓ **Trade with zero line**: Long above, short below for best odds
✓ **Multiple timeframes**: Align 1m, 5m, 15m signals
✓ **Watch for patterns**: V-bottoms and Λ-tops are reliable
### Exit Rules
✓ **Partial profits**: Take 50% at first target
✓ **Trail stops**: Use histogram color changes
✓ **Respect signals**: Exit on opposite dark color
✓ **Time stops**: Close positions before major news
✓ **End of day**: Square up before close
### Avoid
✗ **Don't chase light colors**: Low volume = low confidence
✗ **Don't ignore divergence**: Early warning system
✗ **Don't overtrade**: Wait for clear setups
✗ **Don't fight the trend**: Zero line dictates bias
✗ **Don't skip stops**: Always use risk management
## Risk Management
### Position Sizing
- **Dark green/red signals**: 1-2% account risk
- **Light signals**: 0.5% account risk or skip
- **Divergence plays**: 1% account risk (higher uncertainty)
- **Multiple confirmations**: Up to 2% account risk
### Stop Loss Placement
- **Trend trades**: Below/above recent swing (20-30 points typical)
- **Breakout trades**: Below/above breakout level (15-25 points)
- **Divergence trades**: Beyond divergence extreme (25-40 points)
- **Scalp trades**: Tight stops at 10-15 points
### Profit Targets
- **Minimum**: 1.5:1 reward to risk ratio
- **Scalps**: 15-25 points (quick in/out)
- **Swing**: 50-100 points (hold through pullbacks)
- **Runners**: Trail with histogram color changes
## Timeframe Recommendations
| Timeframe | Trading Style | Typical Hold | Advantages | Challenges |
|-----------|---------------|--------------|------------|------------|
| **1-minute** | Scalping | 1-5 minutes | Fast profits, many setups | Noisy, high false signals |
| **5-minute** | Intraday | 15-60 minutes | Balance of speed/clarity | Still requires quick decisions |
| **15-minute** | Swing | 1-4 hours | Clearer trends, less noise | Fewer opportunities |
| **1-hour** | Position | 4-24 hours | Strong signals, less monitoring | Wider stops required |
**Recommendation**: Start with 5-minute for best balance of signal quality and opportunity frequency.
## Combining with Other Indicators
### VMACDv3 + ACCDv3
- **Use**: Confirm volume flow with price momentum
- **Signal**: Both showing dark green = highest conviction long
- **Divergence**: VMACDv3 bullish + ACCDv3 bearish = examine price action
### VMACDv3 + RSI
- **Use**: Overbought/oversold with momentum confirmation
- **Signal**: RSI < 30 + dark green VMACD = strong reversal
- **Caution**: RSI > 70 + light green VMACD = potential false breakout
### VMACDv3 + Elder Impulse
- **Use**: Bar coloring + histogram confirmation
- **Signal**: Green Elder bars + dark green VMACD = aligned momentum
- **Exit**: Blue Elder bars + light colors = momentum stalling
## Limitations
- **Requires volume data**: Will not work on instruments without volume feed
- **Lagging indicator**: MACD inherently follows price (2-3 bar delay)
- **Consolidation noise**: Generates false signals in tight ranges
- **Gap handling**: Large gaps can distort volume-weighted values
- **Not standalone**: Should combine with price action and support/resistance
## Troubleshooting
**Problem**: Too many light colored signals
**Solution**: Increase Volume MA Length to 30-40 for stricter filtering
**Problem**: Missing entries due to waiting for dark colors
**Solution**: Lower Volume MA Length to 10-15 for more signals (accept lower quality)
**Problem**: Divergences not appearing
**Solution**: Verify volume data available; check if A/D line is calculating
**Problem**: Histogram colors not changing
**Solution**: Ensure real-time data feed; refresh indicator
## Version History
- **v3**: Removed traditional MACD, using volume-weighted MACD on price with A/D divergence
- **v2**: Added A/D divergence detection, volume strength filtering, enhanced histogram colors
- **v1**: Basic volume-weighted MACD on price
## Related Indicators
**Companion Tools**:
- **ACCDv3**: Volume-weighted MACD on A/D line (distribution focus)
- **RSIv2**: RSI with A/D divergence detection
- **DMI**: Directional Movement Index with A/D divergence
- **Elder Impulse**: Bar coloring system using volume-weighted MACD
**Use Together**: VMACDv3 (momentum) + ACCDv3 (distribution) + Elder Impulse (bar colors) = complete volume-based trading system

BB Breakout-Momentum + Reversion Strategies# BB Breakout-Momentum + Reversion Strategies
## Overview
This indicator combines two complementary Bollinger Band trading strategies that automatically adapt to market conditions. Strategy 1 capitalizes on trending markets with breakout-pullback-momentum setups, while Strategy 2 exploits mean reversion in ranging markets. Advanced filtering using ADX and BB Width ensures each strategy only fires in its optimal market environment.
---
## Strategy 1: Breakout → Pullback → Renewed Momentum (Long B / Short B)
### Best Market Conditions
- **Trending Markets**: ADX ≥ 25
- **High Volatility**: BB Width ≥ 1.0× average
- Directional price action with sustained momentum
### Entry Logic
**Long B (Bullish Breakout):**
1. **Initial Breakout**: Price breaks above upper Bollinger Band with strong momentum
2. **Controlled Pullback**: Price pulls back 1-12 bars but holds above lower band (stays in trend)
3. **Defended Zone**: Pullback creates a support zone based on swing lows (validated by multiple touches)
4. **Renewed Momentum**: Price reclaims with green candle, volume confirmation, bullish MACD
5. **Position Check**: Entry must have cushion below upper band and room to reach targets
**Short B (Bearish Breakdown):**
- Mirror logic for downtrends: breakdown below lower band, pullback stays below upper band, renewed selling pressure
### Risk Management
- **Stop Loss**: Lower of (zone floor/previous low) OR (1.5 × ATR from entry)
- **Targets**:
- T1: Entry + 0.85R (0.85 × 1.5 ATR)
- T2: Entry + 1.40R (1.40 × 1.5 ATR)
- T3: Entry + 2.50R (2.50 × 1.5 ATR)
- T4: Entry + 4.50R (4.50 × 1.5 ATR)
- Risk is calculated using ATR (ATRX = 1.5 ATR), stop uses tighter of structural level (ATRL) or ATRX
---
## Strategy 2: Bollinger Band Mean Reversion (Long R / Short R)
### Best Market Conditions
- **Ranging Markets**: ADX ≤ 20
- **Low Volatility**: BB Width ≤ 0.8× average
- Price oscillating around the mean without sustained trend
### Entry Logic
**Long R (Long Reversion):**
1. **Overextension**: Price breaks below lower Bollinger Band (2 consecutive closes)
2. **Snap Back**: Price crosses back above lower band (re-enters the range)
3. **Entry Window**: Within 2 candles of re-entry, look for:
- **Green candle** (close > open) confirming bullish strength
- Close above previous candle (close > close )
4. **Trigger**: First qualifying candle within 2-bar window executes the trade
**Short R (Short Reversion):**
1. **Overextension**: Price breaks above upper Bollinger Band (2 consecutive closes)
2. **Snap Back**: Price crosses back below upper band (re-enters the range)
3. **Entry Window**: Within 2 candles of re-entry, look for:
- **Red candle** (close < open) confirming bearish pressure
- Close below previous candle (close < close )
4. **Trigger**: First qualifying candle within 2-bar window executes the trade
### Risk Management
- **Stop Loss**: Lower of (previous high/low) OR (1.5 × ATR from entry)
- **Targets**: Same as Strategy 1 (0.85R, 1.4R, 2.5R, 4.5R based on 1.5 ATR)
- Betting on return to Bollinger Band basis (mean)
---
## Advanced Filtering System
### ADX Filter (Average Directional Index)
- **Purpose**: Measures trend strength vs choppy/ranging conditions
- **Trending**: ADX ≥ 25 → Enables Strategy 1 (Breakout)
- **Ranging**: ADX ≤ 20 → Enables Strategy 2 (Reversion)
- **Neutral**: ADX 20-25 → No signals (indecisive market)
### BB Width Filter
- **Purpose**: Confirms volatility expansion/contraction
- **Wide Bands**: Current width ≥ 1.0× 50-bar average → Trending environment
- **Narrow Bands**: Current width ≤ 0.8× 50-bar average → Ranging environment
- **Logic**: Both ADX and BB Width must agree on market state before signaling
### Combined Logic
- **Strategy 1 fires**: When BOTH ADX shows trending AND bands are wide
- **Strategy 2 fires**: When BOTH ADX shows ranging AND bands are narrow
- **Visual Display**: Table at bottom-right shows ADX value, BB Width ratio, and current market state

- Signals are relatively rare but high-probability
### Step 3: Execute Trade
- **Entry**: Close of signal candle
- **Stop Loss**: Shown as red cross (Strategy 1) or red dashed line (Strategy 2)
- **Targets**: Scale out at T1, T2, T3, T4 or hold for maximum R:R
### Step 4: Management
- Consider moving stop to breakeven after T1
- Trail stop using swing lows/highs in Strategy 1
- Exit full position at T2-T3 in Strategy 2 (mean reversion has limited upside)
---
## Key Principles
### Why This Works
1. **Market Adaptation**: Uses right strategy for right conditions (trend vs range)
2. **Confluence**: Multiple confirmations required (structure + momentum + volatility + room)
3. **Risk-Defined**: Every trade has pre-calculated stop and targets based on ATR
4. **Probability**: Filters reduce noise and increase win rate by waiting for ideal setups
### Common Pitfalls to Avoid
- ❌ Taking signals in NEUTRAL market state (indicators disagree)
- ❌ Overriding the stop loss (it's calculated for a reason)
- ❌ Expecting signals on every swing (quality over quantity)
- ❌ Using Strategy 1 in ranging markets or Strategy 2 in trending markets
- ❌ Ignoring the room-to-target check (signal won't fire if targets are blocked)
### Complementary Analysis
This indicator works best when combined with:
- Higher timeframe trend analysis
- Key support/resistance levels
- Volume analysis
- Market structure (swing highs/lows)
- Risk management rules (position sizing, max daily loss, etc.)

Pivot Hourly x EMA RibbonHourly Fibonacci Pivot + EMA is an intraday analysis tool that combines hourly Fibonacci-based pivot levels with exponential moving averages (EMAs). It is designed to help traders visualize potential intraday support/resistance zones and short-term trend direction on any timeframe.
The indicator calculates pivot levels from hourly price data and then projects Fibonacci extensions and retracements around a central pivot. These levels can be used to see where price has previously reacted and where future reactions may occur. The EMAs provide an additional layer of context by highlighting the prevailing short-term trend and momentum.
Key features:
Hourly Fibonacci pivot levels (support and resistance zones derived from hourly ranges)
Multiple Fibonacci bands to show potential reaction areas above and below the central pivot
One or more configurable EMAs to show short-term trend direction and dynamic support/resistance
Works on all symbols and intraday timeframes supported by TradingView
Typical use:
Monitor how price behaves when approaching or rejecting Fibonacci pivot levels
Look for confluence between pivot zones and EMA direction or EMA bounces
Use the levels as potential areas of interest for trade planning, stop placement, or partial profit zones within your own trading system
Also have "C" Label it's mean Candle for example C1 is First Candle of the source timeframe, if the source timeframe set to 4 Hour it will be the first 4h candle, the C2 is the second 4h candle of the day.

EMA Market Structure [BOSWaves]EMA Market Structure - Trend-Driven Structural Mapping with Adaptive Swing Detection
Overview
The EMA Market Structure indicator provides an advanced framework for visualizing market structure through dynamically filtered trend and swing analysis.
Unlike conventional EMA overlays, which merely indicate average price direction, this model integrates trend acceleration, swing highs/lows, and break-of-structure (BOS) logic into a unified, visually intuitive display.
Each element adapts in real time to price movement, offering traders a living map of support, resistance, and trend bias that reacts fluidly to market momentum.
The result is a comprehensive, trend-aware representation of price structure.
EMA slope and acceleration guide trend perception, while swing points identify key inflection zones.
Breaks of prior highs or lows are highlighted with visual BOS labels and stop-loss projections, giving traders actionable context for continuation or reversal setups.
Unlike static lines or simple moving averages, the EMA Market Structure indicator fuses dynamic trend analysis with structural awareness to provide a clear picture of market bias and potential turning points.
Theoretical Foundation
The EMA Market Structure builds on principles of momentum filtering and structural analysis.
Standard moving averages track average price but ignore acceleration and context; this indicator captures both the directional slope of the EMA and its rate of change, providing a proxy for trend strength.
Simultaneously, swing detection identifies statistically significant highs and lows, while BOS logic flags decisive breaks in structure, aligned with trend direction.
At its core are three interacting components:
EMA Trend & Acceleration : Smooths price data while highlighting acceleration changes, producing gradient-driven color cues for trend momentum.
Swing Detection Engine : Identifies swing highs and lows over configurable bar lengths, ensuring key turning points are captured with minimal clutter.
Break-of-Structure Logic : Detects price breaches of previous swings and aligns them with EMA trend for actionable BOS signals, including projected stop-loss levels for tactical decision-making.
By integrating these elements, the system scales effectively across timeframes and assets, maintaining structural clarity while visualizing trend dynamics in real time. Traders receive both macro and micro perspectives of market movement, with clear cues for trend continuation or reversal.
How It Works
The EMA Market Structure indicator operates through layered processing stages:
EMA Slope & Acceleration : Calculates the EMA and its rate of change, normalizing via ATR and a smoothing function to produce gradient color coding. This allows instant visual identification of bullish or bearish momentum.
Swing Identification : Swing highs and lows are computed using configurable left/right bar lengths, filtered through a cool-off mechanism to prevent redundant signals and maintain chart clarity.
Structural Lines & Zones : Swing points are connected with lines, and shaded zones are drawn between successive highs/lows to highlight key support and resistance regions.
Break-of-Structure Detection : BOS events occur when price breaches a prior swing in alignment with the EMA trend. Bullish and bearish BOS signals include enhanced label effects and projected stop-loss lines and zones, providing immediate tactical reference.
Dynamic Background Mapping : The chart background adapts to EMA trend direction, reinforcing trend context with subtle visual cues.
Through these processes, the indicator creates a living, adaptive map of market structure that reflects both trend strength and swing-based inflection points.
Interpretation
The EMA Market Structure reframes market reading from simple trend following to structured awareness of price behavior:
Uptrend Phases : EMA is rising with positive acceleration, swings confirm higher lows, and BOS events occur above prior highs, signaling trend continuation.
Downtrend Phases : EMA slope is negative, swings form lower highs, and BOS events occur below prior lows, confirming bearish bias.
Trend Reversals : Flat or decelerating EMA with BOS failures may indicate impending structural change.
Critical Zones : Swing-based lines and shaded zones highlight areas where price may pause, reverse, or accelerate, providing high-probability decision points.
Visually, EMA color gradients, structural lines, and BOS labels combine to provide both statistical trend confirmation and actionable structural cues.
Strategy Integration
EMA Market Structure integrates seamlessly into trend-following and swing-based trading systems:
Trend Alignment : Confirm higher-timeframe EMA slope before entering continuation trades.
BOS Entry Triggers : Use BOS events aligned with EMA trend for tactical entries and stop placement.
Support/Resistance Mapping : Swing lines and zones help define areas for scaling, exits, or reversals.
Volatility Context : ATR-based smoothing and stop-loss buffers accommodate varying market volatility, ensuring robustness across conditions.
Multi-Timeframe Coordination : Combine higher-timeframe EMA trend and swings with lower-timeframe structural events for precision entries.
Technical Implementation Details
Core Engine : EMA slope and ATR-normalized acceleration for gradient-driven trend visualization.
Swing Framework : Pivot-based high/low detection with configurable bar lengths and cool-off intervals.
Structural Visualization : Lines, zones, and labels for high-fidelity mapping of support/resistance and BOS events.
BOS Engine : Detects structural breaks aligned with EMA trend, automatically plotting stop-loss lines and visual cues.
Performance Profile : Lightweight, optimized for real-time responsiveness across multiple timeframes.
Optimal Application Parameters
Timeframe Guidance:
1 - 5 min : Ideal for intraday swing spotting and microstructure trend tracking.
15 - 60 min : Medium-range structural analysis and BOS-driven entries.
4H - Daily : Macro trend mapping and key swing-based support/resistance identification.
Suggested Configuration:
EMA Length : 50
Swing Length : 5
Swing Cooloff : 10 bars
BOS Cooloff : 15 bars
SL Buffer : 0.1%
These suggested parameters should be used as a baseline; their effectiveness depends on the asset volatility, liquidity, and preferred entry frequency, so fine-tuning is expected for optimal performance.
Performance Characteristics
High Effectiveness:
Trending markets with defined swings and structural consistency.
Markets where EMA slope and acceleration reliably indicate momentum changes.
Reduced Effectiveness:
Choppy or sideways markets with minimal swing definition.
Random walk assets lacking clear structural anchors.
Integration Guidelines
Confluence Framework : Combine with volume, momentum, or BOSWaves structural indicators
to validate entries.
Directional Control: Follow EMA slope and BOS alignment for high-conviction trades.
Risk Calibration: Use SL projections for disciplined exposure management.
Multi-Timeframe Synergy: Confirm higher-timeframe trend before executing lower-timeframe structural trades.
Disclaimer
The EMA Market Structure is a professional-grade trend and structure visualization tool. It is not predictive or guaranteed profitable; performance depends on parameter tuning, market regime, and disciplined execution. BOSWaves recommends using it as part of a comprehensive analytical stack integrating trend, liquidity, and structural context.

Equal Highs/Lows Multi-Pivot [Julio]Equal Highs/Lows Multi-Pivot
Description
A sophisticated multi-timeframe pivot analysis tool that detects and highlights equal highs and equal lows across four different pivot lengths simultaneously. This indicator identifies price levels where the market creates identical extremes, a powerful signal of institutional support/resistance and potential reversal or breakout zones.
How It Works
Four Independent Pivot Streams
Pivot 1 (Intraday - 2 bars): Ultra-fast level detection for scalpers
Pivot 2 (Session - 4 bars): Short-term swing levels
Pivot 3 (Daily - 6 bars): Medium-term structural levels
Pivot 4 (Weekly - 9 bars): Long-term institutional levels
Equal High (EQH) Detection
Compares consecutive swing highs and draws a line when two highs are nearly identical within a defined threshold. The indicator uses ATR-based confluence to determine "equality," filtering out noise while catching true market structure.
Equal Low (EQL) Detection
Same logic applied to swing lows, identifying support zones where price repeatedly fails to break below previous lows.
Key Features
Four Simultaneous Timeframes: Analyze intraday, session, daily, and weekly structures all on one chart
ATR-Based Confluence Threshold: Automatically adjusts sensitivity based on current volatility (no fake signals)
Color-Coded Levels: Each pivot length has distinct colors for instant visual identification
Highs: Red, Orange, Yellow, Fuchsia
Lows: Green, Blue, Aqua, Purple
Confirmation Mode: Optional setting to wait for full pivot confirmation before marking levels
Customizable Alert Zones: Toggle individual pivot lengths on/off to reduce clutter
Smart Label Positioning: Labels auto-center between the two equal pivots for clarity
Ideal For
Swing traders tracking support/resistance across multiple timeframes
Scalpers identifying micro-structure for quick entries and exits
Market structure analysts studying institutional price action patterns
Multi-timeframe traders needing confluence from intraday to weekly levels
Anyone trading 1-minute to 4-hour charts
Trading Applications
Identify strong support/resistance zones: Equal levels = confirmed institutional levels
Confirm trend reversals: Multiple equal lows = strong accumulation zone; multiple equal highs = distribution
Plan entries with precision: Enter near equal levels for higher probability setups
Detect liquidity concentration: Where price repeatedly tests the same level
Multi-timeframe confluence: Look for equal levels across multiple pivot lengths for ultra-strong zones
How to Use
Identify the equal levels: Color-coded lines instantly show where price creates matching extremes
Check for confluence: Strong setups occur where multiple pivot lengths align
Wait for price action: Watch for breakouts through equal levels or reversals at these zones
Enter with structure: Use equal levels as entry/exit triggers combined with your trading methodology
Manage with confidence: These levels mark institutional decision points
Customization Options

Symmetrical Geometric MandalaSymmetrical Geometric Mandala
Overview
The Symmetrical Geometric Mandala is an advanced geometric trading tool that applies phi (φ) harmonic relationships to price-time analysis. This indicator automatically detects swing ranges and constructs a scale-invariant geometric framework based on the square root of phi (√φ), revealing natural support/resistance zones and harmonic price-time balance points.
Core Concept
Traditional technical analysis often treats price and time as separate dimensions. This indicator harmonizes them using the mathematical constant √φ (approximately 1.272), creating a geometric "squaring" of price and time that remains proportionally consistent across different chart scales.
The Mathematics
When you select a price range (from swing low to swing high or vice versa), the indicator calculates:
PBR (Price-to-Bar Ratio) = Range / Number of Bars
Harmonic PBR = PBR × √φ (1.272019649514069)
Phi Extension = Range × φ (1.618033988749895)
The Harmonic PBR is the critical value - this is the chart scaling factor that creates perfect geometric harmony between price and time for your selected range.
Visual Components

Upper line: Extended above the swing high (for uplegs) or swing low (for downlegs)
Lower line: Extended below the swing low (for uplegs) or swing high (for downlegs)
These lines mark the natural harmonic boundaries of the price movement.
2. Rectangle Diagonal Lines
Two diagonal lines that create a "rectangle" effect, connecting:
Overlap points on horizontal boundaries to swing extremes
These lines go in the opposite direction of the price leg (creating the symmetrical mandala pattern)
When extended, they reveal future geometric support/resistance zones
3. Phi Harmonic Circles (Optional)
Two precisely calculated circles (drawn as smooth polylines):
Circle A: Centered at the first swing extreme (Nodal A)
Circle B: Centered at the second swing extreme (Nodal B)
Radius = Range × φ, causing them to perfectly touch the horizontal boundary lines
These circles visualize the geometric harmony and create a mandala-like pattern that reveals natural price zones.
How to Use
Step 1: Select Your Range
Set the Start Date at your swing low or swing high
Set the End Date at the opposite extreme
The indicator automatically detects whether it's an upleg or downleg
Step 2: Read the Harmonic PBR
Check the highlighted yellow row in the table: "PBR × √φ"
This is your chart scaling value
Step 3: Apply Chart Scaling (Optional)
For perfect geometric visualization:
Right-click on your chart's price axis
Select "Scale price chart only"
Enter the PBR × √φ value
The geometry will now display in perfect harmonic proportion
Step 4: Interpret the Geometry
Horizontal lines: Key support/resistance zones at phi extensions
Diagonal lines: Dynamic trend channels and future price-time balance points
Circle intersections: Natural harmonic turning points
Central diamond area: Core price-time equilibrium zone

Theory Background
This indicator draws inspiration from:
W.D. Gann's price-time squaring techniques
Bradley Cowan's geometric market analysis
Phi/golden ratio harmonic theory
Mathematical constants in market structure
Unlike traditional Fibonacci retracements, this tool uses √φ instead of φ as the primary scaling constant, creating a unique geometric relationship that "squares" price movement with time passage.
Best Practices
Use on significant swings - Works best on major swing highs/lows
Multiple timeframe analysis - Apply to different timeframes for confluence
Combine with other tools - Use alongside support/resistance and trend analysis
Respect the geometry - Pay attention when price interacts with geometric elements
Chart scaling optional - The geometry works at any scale, but scaling enhances visualization
Notes
The indicator draws geometry from left to right (from Nodal A to Nodal B)
All lines extend infinitely for future projections
The table shows real-time calculations for the selected range
Date range selection uses confirm dialogs to prevent accidental changes
Third eye • StrategyThird eye • Strategy – User Guide
1. Idea & Concept
Third eye • Strategy combines three things into one system:
Ichimoku Cloud – to define market regime and support/resistance.
Moving Average (trend filter) – to trade only in the dominant direction.
CCI (Commodity Channel Index) – to generate precise entry signals on momentum breakouts.
The script is a strategy, not an indicator: it can backtest entries, exits, SL, TP and BreakEven logic automatically.
2. Indicators Used
2.1 Ichimoku
Standard Ichimoku settings (by default 9/26/52/26) are used:
Conversion Line (Tenkan-sen)
Base Line (Kijun-sen)
Leading Span A & B (Kumo Cloud)
Lagging Span is calculated but hidden from the chart (for visual simplicity).
From the cloud we derive:
kumoTop – top of the cloud under current price.
kumoBottom – bottom of the cloud under current price.
Flags:
is_above_kumo – price above the cloud.
is_below_kumo – price below the cloud.
is_in_kumo – price inside the cloud.
These conditions are used as trend / regime filters and for stop-loss & trailing stops.
2.2 Moving Average
You can optionally display and use a trend MA:
Types: SMA, EMA, DEMA, WMA
Length: configurable (default 200)
Source: default close
Filter idea:
If MA Direction Filter is ON:
When Close > MA → strategy allows only Long signals.
When Close < MA → strategy allows only Short signals.
The MA is plotted on the chart (if enabled).
2.3 CCI & Panel
The CCI (Commodity Channel Index) is used for entry timing:
CCI length and source are configurable (default length 20, source hlc3).
Two thresholds:
CCI Upper Threshold (Long) – default +100
CCI Lower Threshold (Short) – default –100
Signals:
Long signal:
CCI crosses up through the upper threshold
cci_val < upper_threshold and cci_val > upper_threshold
Short signal:
CCI crosses down through the lower threshold
cci_val > lower_threshold and cci_val < lower_threshold
There is a panel (table) in the bottom-right corner:
Shows current CCI value.
Shows filter status as colored dots:
Green = filter enabled and passed.
Red = filter enabled and blocking trades.
Gray = filter is disabled.
Filters shown in the panel:
Ichimoku Cloud filter (Long/Short)
Ichimoku Lines filter (Conversion/Base vs Cloud)
MA Direction filter
3. Filters & Trade Direction
All filters can be turned ON/OFF independently.
3.1 Ichimoku Cloud Filter
Purpose: trade only when price is clearly above or below the Kumo.
Long Cloud Filter (Use Ichimoku Cloud Filter) – when enabled:
Long trades only if close > cloud top.
Short Cloud Filter – when enabled:
Short trades only if close < cloud bottom.
If the cloud filter is disabled, this condition is ignored.
3.2 Ichimoku Lines Above/Below Cloud
Purpose: stronger trend confirmation: Ichimoku lines should also be on the “correct” side of the cloud.
Long Lines Filter:
Long allowed only if Conversion Line and Base Line are both above the cloud.
Short Lines Filter:
Short allowed only if both lines are below the cloud.
If this filter is OFF, the conditions are not checked.
3.3 MA Direction Filter
As described above:
When ON:
Close > MA → only Longs.
Close < MA → only Shorts.
4. Anti-Re-Entry Logic (Cloud Touch Reset)
The strategy uses internal flags to avoid continuous re-entries in the same direction without a reset.
Two flags:
allowLong
allowShort
After a Long entry, allowLong is set to false, allowShort to true.
After a Short entry, allowShort is set to false, allowLong to true.
Flags are reset when price touches the Kumo:
If Low goes into the cloud → allowLong = true
If High goes into the cloud → allowShort = true
If Close is inside the cloud → both allowLong and allowShort are set to true
There is a key option:
Wait Position Close Before Flag Reset
If ON: cloud touch will reset flags only when there is no open position.
If OFF: flags can be reset even while a trade is open.
This gives a kind of regime-based re-entry control: after a trend leg, you wait for a “cloud interaction” to allow new signals.
5. Risk Management
All risk management is handled inside the strategy.
5.1 Position Sizing
Order Size % of Equity – default 10%
The strategy calculates:
position_value = equity * (Order Size % / 100)
position_qty = position_value / close
So position size automatically adapts to your current equity.
5.2 Take Profit Modes
You can choose one of two TP modes:
Percent
Fibonacci
5.2.1 Percent Mode
Single Take Profit at X% from entry (default 2%).
For Long:
TP = entry_price * (1 + tp_pct / 100)
For Short:
TP = entry_price * (1 - tp_pct / 100)
One strategy.exit per side is used: "Long TP/SL" and "Short TP/SL".
5.2.2 Fibonacci Mode (2 partial TPs)
In this mode, TP levels are based on a virtual Fib-style extension between entry and stop-loss.
Inputs:
Fib TP1 Level (default 1.618)
Fib TP2 Level (default 2.5)
TP1 Share % (Fib) (default 50%)
TP2 share is automatically 100% - TP1 share.
Process for Long:
Compute a reference Stop (see SL section below) → sl_for_fib.
Compute distance: dist = entry_price - sl_for_fib.
TP levels:
TP1 = entry_price + dist * (Fib TP1 Level - 1)
TP2 = entry_price + dist * (Fib TP2 Level - 1)
For Short, the logic is mirrored.
Two exits are used:
TP1 – closes TP1 share % of position.
TP2 – closes remaining TP2 share %.
Same stop is used for both partial exits.
5.3 Stop-Loss Modes
You can choose one of three Stop Loss modes:
Stable – fixed % from entry.
Ichimoku – fixed level derived from the Kumo.
Ichimoku Trailing – dynamic SL following the cloud.
5.3.1 Stable SL
For Long:
SL = entry_price * (1 - Stable SL % / 100)
For Short:
SL = entry_price * (1 + Stable SL % / 100)
Used both for Percent TP mode and as reference for Fib TP if Kumo is not available.
5.3.2 Ichimoku SL (fixed, non-trailing)
At the time of a new trade:
For Long:
Base SL = cloud bottom minus small offset (%)
For Short:
Base SL = cloud top plus small offset (%)
The offset is configurable: Ichimoku SL Offset %.
Once computed, that SL level is fixed for this trade.
5.3.3 Ichimoku Trailing SL
Similar to Ichimoku SL, but recomputed each bar:
For Long:
SL = cloud bottom – offset
For Short:
SL = cloud top + offset
A red trailing SL line is drawn on the chart to visualize current stop level.
This trailing SL is also used as reference for BreakEven and for Fib TP distance.
6. BreakEven Logic (with BE Lines)
BreakEven is optional and supports two modes:
Percent
Fibonacci
Inputs:
Percent mode:
BE Trigger % (from entry) – move SL to BE when price goes this % in profit.
BE Offset % from entry – SL will be set to entry ± this offset.
Fibonacci mode:
BE Fib Level – Fib level at which BE will be activated (default 1.618, same style as TP).
BE Offset % from entry – how far from entry to place BE stop.
The logic:
Before BE is triggered, SL follows its normal mode (Stable/Ichimoku/Ichimoku Trailing).
When BE triggers:
For Long:
New SL = max(current SL, BE SL).
For Short:
New SL = min(current SL, BE SL).
This means BE will never loosen the stop – only tighten it.
When BE is activated, the strategy draws a violet horizontal line at the BreakEven level (once per trade).
BE state is cleared when the position is closed or when a new position is opened.
7. Entry & Exit Logic (Summary)
7.1 Long Entry
Conditions for a Long:
CCI signal:
CCI crosses up through the upper threshold.
Ichimoku Cloud Filter (optional):
If enabled → price must be above the Kumo.
Ichimoku Lines Filter (optional):
If enabled → Conversion Line and Base Line must be above the Kumo.
MA Direction Filter (optional):
If enabled → Close must be above the chosen MA.
Anti-re-entry flag:
allowLong must be true (cloud-based reset).
Position check:
Long entries are allowed when current position size ≤ 0 (so it can also reverse from short to long).
If all these conditions are true, the strategy sends:
strategy.entry("Long", strategy.long, qty = calculated_qty)
After entry:
allowLong = false
allowShort = true
7.2 Short Entry
Same structure, mirrored:
CCI signal:
CCI crosses down through the lower threshold.
Cloud filter: price must be below cloud (if enabled).
Lines filter: conversion & base must be below cloud (if enabled).
MA filter: Close must be below MA (if enabled).
allowShort must be true.
Position check: position size ≥ 0 (allows reversal from long to short).
Then:
strategy.entry("Short", strategy.short, qty = calculated_qty)
Flags update:
allowShort = false
allowLong = true
7.3 Exits
While in a position:
The strategy continuously recalculates SL (depending on chosen mode) and, in Percent mode, TP.
In Fib mode, fixed TP levels are computed at entry.
BreakEven may raise/tighten the SL if its conditions are met.
Exits are executed via strategy.exit:
Percent mode: one TP+SL exit per side.
Fib mode: two partial exits (TP1 and TP2) sharing the same SL.
At position open, the script also draws visual lines:
White line — entry price.
Green line(s) — TP level(s).
Red line — SL (if not using Ichimoku Trailing; with trailing, the red line is updated dynamically).
Maximum of 30 lines are kept to avoid clutter.
8. How to Use the Strategy
Choose market & timeframe
Works well on trending instruments. Try crypto, FX or indices on H1–H4, or intraday if you prefer more trades.
Adjust Ichimoku settings
Keep defaults (9/26/52/26) or adapt to your timeframe.
Configure Moving Average
Typical: EMA 200 as a trend filter.
Turn MA Direction Filter ON if you want to trade only with the main trend.
Set CCI thresholds
Default ±100 is classic.
Lower thresholds → more signals, higher noise.
Higher thresholds → fewer but stronger signals.
Enable/disable filters
Turn on Ichimoku Cloud and Ichimoku Lines if you want only “clean” trend trades.
Use Wait Position Close Before Flag Reset to control how often re-entries are allowed.
Choose TP & SL mode
Percent mode is simpler and easier to understand.
Fibonacci mode is more advanced: it aligns TP levels with the distance to stop, giving asymmetric RR setups (two partial TPs).
Choose Stable SL for fixed-risk trades, or Ichimoku / Ichimoku Trailing to tie stops to the cloud structure.
Set BreakEven
Enable BE if you want to lock in risk-free trades after a certain move.
Percent mode is straightforward; Fib mode keeps BreakEven in harmony with your Fib TP setup.
Run Backtest & Optimize
Press “Add to chart” → go to Strategy Tester.
Adjust parameters to your market and timeframe.
Look at equity curve, PF, drawdown, average trade, etc.
Live / Paper Trading
After you’re satisfied with backtest results, use the strategy to generate signals.
You can mirror entries/exits manually or connect them to alerts (if you build an alert-based execution layer).
Orderbook Table1. Indicator Name
Orderbook Table
This is an order book style trading volume map
that upgraded the price from my first script to label
2. One-line Introduction
A visual heatmap-style orderbook simulator that displays volume and delta clustering across price levels.
3. Overall Description
Orderbook Table is a powerful visual tool designed to replicate an on-chart approximation of a traditional order book.
It scans historical candles within a specified lookback window and accumulates traded volume into price "bins" or levels.
Each level is color-coded based on total volume and directional bias (delta), offering a layered view of where market interest was concentrated.
The indicator approximates order flow by analyzing each candle's directional volume, separating bullish and bearish volume.
With adjustable parameters such as level depth, price bin density, delta sensitivity, and opacity, it provides a highly customizable visualization.
Displayed directly on the chart, each level shows the volume at that price zone, along with a price label, offset to the right of the current bar.
Traders can use this tool to detect high liquidity zones, support/resistance clusters, and volume imbalances that may precede future price movements.
4. Key Benefits (Title + Description)
✅ On-Chart Volume Heatmap
Shows volume distribution across price levels in real-time directly on the price chart, creating a live “orderbook” view.
✅ Delta-Based Bias Coloring
Color changes based on net buying/selling pressure (delta), making aggressive demand/supply zones easy to spot.
✅ High Customizability
Users can adjust lookback bars, price bins, opacity levels, and delta usage to fit any market condition or asset class.
✅ Lightweight Simulation
Approximates orderbook depth using candle data without needing L2 feed access—works on all assets and timeframes.
✅ Clear Visual Anchoring
Volume quantities and price levels are offset to the right for easy viewing without cluttering the active chart area.
✅ Fast Market Context Recognition
Quickly identify price levels where volume concentrated historically, improving decision-making for entries/exits.
5. Indicator User Guide
📌 Basic Concept
Orderbook Table analyzes a configurable number of past bars and distributes traded volume into price "bins."
Each bin shows how much volume occurred around that price level, optionally adjusted for bullish/bearish candle direction.
⚙️ Settings Overview
Lookback Bars: Number of candles to scan for volume history
Levels (Total): Number of price levels to display around the current price
Price Bins: Granularity of price segmentation for volume distribution
Shift Right: How far to offset labels to the right of the current bar
Max/Min Opacity: Controls visual strength of volume coloring
Use Candle Delta Approx.: If enabled, colors the volume based on candle direction (green for up, red for down)
📈 Example Timing
Look for green clusters (bullish bias) below current price → possible strong demand zones
Price enters a high-volume level with previously aggressive buyers (green), suggesting support
📉 Example Timing
Red clusters (bearish bias) above current price can act as resistance or supply zones
Price stalling at a red-heavy volume band may indicate exhaustion or reversal opportunity
🧪 Recommended Use
Use as a support/resistance mapping tool in ranging and trending markets
Pair with candlestick analysis or momentum indicators for refined entry/exit points
Combine with VWAP or volume profile for multi-dimensional volume insight
🔒 Cautions
This is an approximation, not a true L2 orderbook—volume is based on historical candles, not actual limit order data
In low-volume markets or higher timeframes, bin granularity may be too coarse—adjust "Price Bins" accordingly
Delta calculation is based on open-close direction and does not reflect true buy/sell volume splits
Avoid overinterpreting low-opacity (light color) zones—they may indicate low interest rather than true resistance/support
