Rolling Volume Profile [Matrix Volume Heatmap] by NXT2017Description
This indicator offers a unique visual approach to Volume Profile analysis. Instead of the traditional histogram bars or boxes, this script renders a Rolling Volume Profile as a background "Matrix Heatmap" directly on your chart.
By dividing the price action of the most recent N-candles into 30 horizontal zones (buckets), it visualizes where the most trading activity has occurred within your defined lookback period. The visualization uses dynamic transparency to highlight the Point of Control (POC) and high-volume nodes, while fading out low-volume areas.
🧠 How it Works
The script operates on a "Rolling Window" basis, meaning it recalculates the profile at every bar to reflect the immediate market context.
Dynamic Range: It calculates the highest High and lowest Low of the user-defined Lookback Length (default: 1000 bars).
Bucket Slicing: This vertical range is divided into 30 equal price buckets.
Volume Distribution (Overlap Logic): The script iterates through the historical data. If a candle is large and spans multiple buckets, its volume is distributed proportionally across those buckets. This ensures a more realistic profile compared to simply assigning volume to the close price.
Heatmap Visualization:
The script calculates the Maximum Volume (POC) within the profile.
It uses a Reference Length to normalize this maximum.
Dynamic Opacity: Zones with volume close to the maximum are rendered opaque (solid). Zones with low relative volume become highly transparent. This creates an automatic "Heatmap" effect, allowing you to instantly spot the most significant price levels.
⚙️ Settings
Lookback Length (candles): Defines how far back the profile calculates volume (e.g., 1000 bars).
POC Reference Length: Defines the smoothing window for the 100% volume baseline. Increasing this stabilizes the color changes; decreasing it makes the heatmap more reactive to sudden volume spikes.
Profil Color: Choose the base color for the matrix. The transparency is calculated automatically.
💡 Use Case
This tool is ideal for traders who want to see the "Value Area" of the current range without cluttering the chart with complex boxes or side-bars. It works excellent as a background context tool to identify:
High Volume Nodes (Support/Resistance)
Low Volume Nodes (Price gaps/Rejection areas)
Migrating Points of Control (Trend direction)

Luxy VWAP Magic - MTF Projection EngineThis indicator transforms the classic VWAP into a comprehensive trading system. Instead of switching between multiple indicators, you get everything in one place: multi-timeframe analysis, statistical bands, momentum detection, volume profiling, session tracking, and divergence signals.
What Makes This Different
Traditional VWAP indicators show a single line. This tool treats VWAP as a foundation for complete market analysis. The indicator automatically detects your asset type (stocks, crypto, forex, futures) and adjusts its behavior accordingly. Crypto traders get 24/7 session tracking. Stock traders get proper market hours handling. Everyone gets institutional-grade analytics.
Anchor Period Options
The anchor period determines when VWAP resets and recalculates. You have three categories of options:
Time-Based Anchors:
Session - Resets at market open. Best for intraday stock trading where you want fresh VWAP each day.
Day - Resets at midnight UTC. Standard option for most traders.
Week / Month / Quarter / Year - Longer reset periods for swing traders and position traders who want broader context.
Rolling Window Anchors:
Rolling 5D - A sliding 5-day window that never resets. Solves the Monday problem where weekly VWAP equals daily VWAP on first day of week.
Rolling 21D - Approximately one month of trading data in continuous calculation. Excellent for crypto and forex markets that trade 24/7 without clear session breaks.
Event-Based Anchors:
Dividends - Resets on ex-dividend dates. Track institutional cost basis from dividend events.
Splits - Resets on stock split dates. Useful for analyzing post-split trading behavior.
Earnings - Resets on earnings report dates. See where volume-weighted trading occurred since last quarterly report.
Standard Deviation Bands
Three sets of bands surround the main VWAP line:
Band 1 (Aqua) - Plus and minus one standard deviation. Approximately 68% of price action occurs within this range under normal distribution. Touches suggest minor extension.
Band 2 (Fuchsia) - Plus and minus two standard deviations. Only 5% of trading should occur outside this range statistically. Touches here indicate significant overextension and high probability of mean reversion.
Band 3 (Purple) - Plus and minus three standard deviations. Touches are rare (0.3% probability) and represent extreme conditions. Often marks climax moves or panic selling/buying.
Each band can be toggled independently. Most traders show Band 1 by default and add Band 2 and 3 for specific setups or volatile instruments.
Multi-Timeframe VWAP System
The MTF section plots previous period VWAPs as horizontal support and resistance levels:
Daily VWAP - Previous day's final VWAP value. Key intraday reference level.
Weekly VWAP - Previous week's final VWAP. Important for swing traders.
Monthly VWAP - Previous month's final VWAP. Institutional benchmark level.
Quarterly VWAP - Previous quarter's final VWAP. Major support/resistance for position traders.
Previous Day VWAP - Yesterday's closing VWAP specifically, separate from current daily calculation.
The Confluence Zone percentage setting determines how close multiple VWAPs must be to trigger a confluence alert. When two or more timeframe VWAPs converge within this threshold, you get a high-probability support/resistance zone.
Session VWAPs for Global Markets
For forex, crypto, and futures traders who operate in 24/7 markets, the indicator tracks three major global sessions:
Asia Session - UTC 21:00 to 08:00. Gold colored line. Typically lower volatility, range-bound action that sets overnight levels.
London Session - UTC 08:00 to 17:00. Orange colored line. Often determines daily direction with high volume European participation.
New York Session - UTC 13:00 to 22:00. Blue colored line. Highest volume session globally. Sharp directional moves common.
Previous session VWAP values display as horizontal lines when each session closes, acting as intraday support and resistance. The table shows which sessions are currently active with checkmarks.
On-Chart Labels and Signals
The indicator plots several types of labels directly on price action when significant events occur:
Volume Spike Labels
Fire when current bar volume exceeds configurable thresholds relative to both the previous bar and the 20-bar average. Default settings require 300% of previous bar AND 200% of average volume. Green labels indicate bullish candles. Red labels indicate bearish candles. These spikes often mark institutional entry points.
Momentum Shift Labels
Appear when VWAP acceleration changes direction. The Slowing label warns when an active trend loses steam, often preceding reversal. The Accelerating label confirms trend continuation or potential bottom during downtrends. Filters available to show only reversal signals in existing trends.
VWAP Squeeze Labels
Detect when standard deviation bands contract relative to ATR (Average True Range). Low volatility compression often precedes explosive breakout moves. When the squeeze fires (releases), a label appears with directional prediction based on VWAP slope.
Divergence Labels
Mark price/volume divergences using CVD (Cumulative Volume Delta) analysis:
Bullish divergence: Price makes lower low, but CVD makes higher low. Hidden accumulation despite price weakness.
Bearish divergence: Price makes higher high, but CVD makes lower high. Hidden distribution despite price strength.
Dynamic VWAP Coloring
The main VWAP line changes color based on its slope direction:
Green - VWAP is rising. Institutional buying pressure. Volume-weighted price increasing.
Red - VWAP is falling. Institutional selling pressure. Volume-weighted price decreasing.
Gray - VWAP is flat. Consolidation or balance between buyers and sellers.
This coloring can be disabled for a static blue line if you prefer cleaner visuals. The VWAP label next to the line shows the current trend direction and delta percentage.
Calculated Projection Cone
One of the most powerful features is the Calculated Projection Cone. Unlike traditional extrapolation methods that simply extend a trend line forward, this system analyzes what actually happened in similar market conditions throughout the chart's history.
How It Works:
The system classifies each bar into one of 27 unique market states:
Z-Score Level - LOW (oversold), MID (fair value), or HIGH (overbought) based on configurable thresholds
Trend Direction - DOWN, FLAT, or UP based on VWAP slope
Volume Profile - LOW (below 80%), NORMAL (80-150%), or HIGH (above 150%) relative volume
When you look at the current bar, the indicator:
1. Identifies the current market state (e.g., LOW Z-Score + UP Trend + HIGH Volume)
2. Searches through all historical bars on the chart that had the same state
3. Calculates what happened in those bars X bars later (where X is your projection horizon)
4. Shows you the probability of up/down and the average move size
Visual Elements:
Probability Cone - Colored green (bullish probability above 55%), red (bearish below 45%), or gold (neutral). The cone width represents the historical range of outcomes (roughly the 20th to 80th percentile).
Center Line - Shows the average expected price based on historical outcomes in similar conditions.
Probability Label - Displays direction probability and average move. Example: "67% UP (+0.8%)" means 67% of similar past cases moved up, averaging 0.8% gain.
Fallback System:
When the exact 27-state match has insufficient historical data:
First fallback: Uses Z-Score plus Trend only (9 broader states, ignoring volume)
Second fallback: Uses Z-Score only (3 states)
When fallback is active, confidence automatically adjusts
Settings:
Projection Horizon - How many bars forward to analyze outcomes (5, 10, 15, or 20 bars, default 10)
Lookback Period - Historical data window in days (30-252, default 60)
Minimum Samples - Cases needed before using fallback (5-30, default 10)
Z-Score Threshold - Bucket boundary for LOW/MID/HIGH classification (1.0, 1.5, or 2.0 sigma)
Cloud Transparency - Adjust visibility (50-95%)
Colors - Customize bullish, bearish, and neutral cone colors
Confidence Levels:
HIGH - 30 or more similar historical cases found
MEDIUM - 15-29 similar cases
LOW - Fewer than 15 cases (more uncertainty)
IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER:
The Calculated Projection is based on past patterns only. It is NOT a price prediction or financial advice. Similar market states in the past do not guarantee similar outcomes in the future. The probability shown is historical frequency, not a guarantee. Always combine with other analysis and never rely solely on projections for trading decisions.

The Info Table - Your Trading Dashboard
The right side of your chart displays a compact table with up to twelve metrics.
Row-by-Row Breakdown:
Asset and Period - Shows what the indicator detected (US Stock, Crypto, Forex, etc.) and your selected anchor period. The detection happens automatically based on exchange data, so VWAP resets and calculations match your actual trading instrument.
Delta Percentage - How far current price sits from VWAP, expressed as a percentage. Positive means price trades above fair value. Negative means below. Large delta values (beyond 1-2%) often precede mean reversion moves. Day traders watch this for overextension.
Z-Score - Statistical deviation from VWAP measured in standard deviations. Unlike raw delta, Z-Score accounts for volatility. A 2% move in a volatile biotech stock differs from 2% in a stable utility. Z-Score normalizes this. Values beyond plus or minus two sigma occur only 5% of the time statistically.
Trend Direction - Whether VWAP itself is rising, falling, or flat. Rising VWAP means the volume-weighted average price is increasing, which indicates institutional accumulation. Falling VWAP suggests distribution. This differs from price trend since it weights by volume.
Momentum State - Is the trend accelerating or slowing down? This measures the rate of change in VWAP slope. When an uptrend shows slowing momentum, it often precedes reversal. Accelerating momentum in a downtrend can signal capitulation and potential bottom.
Relative Volume - Current bar volume compared to the 20-bar average, shown as percentage. Values above 150% indicate above-average activity. Spikes above 200-300% often mark institutional involvement. Low volume (below 80%) warns of potential fake moves.
MTF Bias - Four checkmarks or X marks showing whether price sits above or below Daily, Weekly, Monthly, and Quarterly VWAP. Four checkmarks means strong bullish alignment across all timeframes. Four X marks indicates bearish alignment. Mixed readings suggest consolidation or transition.
Band Probabilities - Historical statistics showing how often price touched each standard deviation band over your lookback period. This helps you understand if mean reversion or trend following works better for your specific instrument.
Session Status - Which global trading sessions are currently active (Asia, London, New York). Shows checkmarks for active sessions. Important for forex and crypto traders who need to know when major liquidity windows open and close.
Divergence State - Whether the indicator detects bullish or bearish divergence between price and cumulative volume delta. Bullish divergence occurs when price makes lower lows but buying pressure (CVD) makes higher lows, suggesting hidden accumulation.
Confidence Score - A weighted composite of all factors displayed as a progress bar and percentage. Combines MTF alignment, Z-Score, trend direction, volume delta, momentum, and relative volume into a single 0-100 score. Higher scores indicate stronger conviction setups.
Calculated Projection - When the Projection Cone is enabled, shows the historical probability of price direction and expected move. For example: "▲ 67% (+0.8%)" means in similar market states historically, price moved up 67% of the time with an average gain of 0.8%. The system analyzes 27 unique market states based on Z-Score, Trend, and Volume conditions.
Recommended Use Cases
Day Trading Stocks:
Use Session anchor with Band 1 visible. Watch for price returning to VWAP after morning move. Volume spikes near VWAP often mark institutional accumulation zones.
Swing Trading:
Use Weekly or Rolling 21D anchor. Enable MTF lines for Daily and Weekly levels. Trade pullbacks to these levels in direction of MTF bias.
Crypto and Forex:
Enable Session VWAPs. Use Rolling anchors to avoid artificial resets. Monitor session transitions for breakout opportunities.
Mean Reversion:
Focus on Z-Score reaching plus or minus two. Add Band 2 visibility. Combine with slowing momentum for highest probability reversals.
Trend Following:
Watch MTF bias alignment. Four checkmarks plus accelerating momentum plus high volume confirms trend continuation setups.
Projection Planning:
Enable the Calculated Projection to see what happened historically in similar market conditions. Use 5-10 bars for intraday setups, 15-20 bars for swing trade planning. Focus on high probability readings (above 60%) with HIGH confidence (30 or more samples). The cone shows the probable range of outcomes based on actual historical data. Combine with other factors like MTF alignment and volume for higher conviction setups.
Important Notes
The indicator does not repaint. MTF values use previous period's confirmed data.
Rolling VWAP works best on 15-minute timeframes and above due to bar lookback requirements.
Session VWAPs apply to global markets by default (forex, crypto, futures). Enable the all-assets option for stocks if desired.
Volume data for forex represents tick volume, not actual traded volume.
All alert conditions fire only on confirmed (closed) bars to prevent false signals.
The Calculated Projection updates each bar as market state changes. This is expected behavior. The projection shows probabilities based on similar past conditions, not a fixed prediction.
Q AND A
Q: Does this indicator repaint?
A: No. The main VWAP calculation uses standard TradingView VWAP methodology. Multi-timeframe values use previous period's confirmed data with appropriate lookahead settings. All alert signals require bar confirmation.
Q: Why does my Rolling VWAP look different on 1-minute versus 15-minute charts?
A: Rolling VWAP calculates across a fixed number of trading days. On very short timeframes, the bar lookback may hit TradingView limits. For best Rolling VWAP accuracy, use 15-minute or higher timeframes.
Q: Can I use this on any instrument?
A: Yes. The indicator automatically detects asset type and adjusts behavior. Stocks use standard market hours. Crypto uses 24/7 calculations. Forex uses tick volume. Everything adapts automatically.
Q: What does the Confidence Score actually measure?
A: The score combines six weighted factors: MTF alignment (25%), Z-Score position (20%), Trend direction (20%), CVD pressure (15%), Momentum state (10%), and Relative volume (10%). Higher scores indicate more factors aligned in one direction.
Q: Why are Session VWAPs not showing on my stock chart?
A: Session VWAPs apply to 24-hour markets by default (forex, crypto, futures). For stocks, enable the Use for All Assets option in Session VWAP settings.
Q: The Divergence labels appear delayed. Is this a bug?
A: Divergence detection requires pivot confirmation, which needs bars on both sides of the pivot point. The label appears at the actual pivot location (several bars back) once confirmed. This is intentional and prevents false signals.
Q: Can I change the band colors?
A: Yes. Each of the three bands has its own color input setting. You can customize Band 1, Band 2, and Band 3 colors to match your preferences. The defaults are Aqua, Fuchsia, and Purple. The main VWAP line color adapts dynamically based on slope direction or can be set to static blue.
Q: How do I set up alerts?
A: Right-click on the chart, select Add Alert, choose this indicator, and select your desired condition from the dropdown. All conditions include descriptive alert messages with relevant data.
Q: What is the Probability Engine lookback period?
A: This setting determines how many trading days the indicator analyzes to calculate band touch rates and mean reversion statistics. Default is 60 days (approximately 3 months). Longer periods provide more stable statistics but may miss recent behavior changes.
Q: Why do I see fewer labels than expected?
A: Signal labels (Volume, Momentum, Squeeze, Divergence) are limited to 5 most recent labels on the chart to keep it clean. When a new label appears, the oldest one is automatically removed. Additionally, momentum labels have several filters: check the slope multiplier setting (higher values require stronger trends) and the Only Reversal Signals option (when enabled, labels only appear for potential reversals, not trend confirmations).
Q: What is the Calculated Projection and how accurate is it?
A: The Calculated Projection analyzes what happened in past market conditions similar to the current state. It classifies each bar by Z-Score level, Trend direction, and Volume profile (27 unique states), then shows the historical probability of up vs down and the average move size. It is NOT a price prediction or guarantee. The probability shown is how often similar conditions led to up/down moves historically, not a future guarantee. Always use it as one input among many.
Q: Why does the Projection probability change?
A: The projection updates on each bar as market state changes. If Z-Score moves from LOW to MID, or trend shifts from UP to FLAT, the system looks up a different historical category. This is expected behavior. The projection shows what happened in similar past conditions to the current bar's state.
Q: The Projection shows LOW confidence. What does that mean?
A: Confidence levels indicate sample size: HIGH means 30 or more historical cases found, MEDIUM means 15-29 cases, LOW means fewer than 15 cases. When sample size is low, the system uses a fallback: first aggregating by Z-Score plus Trend only (ignoring volume), then by Z-Score only. LOW confidence means less statistical reliability, so weight other factors more heavily in your decision.
Q: Why does the cone sometimes show 50/50 probability?
A: A 50/50 reading means that in similar past market states, price moved up roughly half the time and down half the time. This indicates a neutral or balanced condition where historical patterns provide no directional edge. Consider waiting for a higher probability setup or using other analysis methods.

Liquidation Heatmap [Alpha Extract]A sophisticated liquidity zone visualization system that identifies and maps potential liquidation levels based on swing point analysis with volume-weighted intensity measurement and gradient heatmap coloring. Utilizing pivot-based pocket detection and ATR-scaled zone heights, this indicator delivers institutional-grade liquidity mapping with dynamic color intensity reflecting relative liquidity concentration. The system's dual-swing detection architecture combined with configurable weight metrics creates comprehensive liquidation level identification suitable for strategic position planning and market structure analysis.
🔶 Advanced Pivot-Based Pocket Detection
Implements dual swing width analysis to identify potential liquidation zones at pivot highs and lows with configurable lookback periods for comprehensive level coverage. The system detects primary swing points using main pivot width and optional secondary swing detection for increased pocket density, creating layered liquidity maps that capture both major and minor liquidation levels across extended price history.
🔶 Multi-Metric Weight Calculation Engine
Features flexible weight source selection including Volume, Range (high-low spread), and Volume × Range composite metrics for liquidity intensity measurement. The system calculates pocket weights based on market activity at pivot formation, enabling traders to identify which liquidation levels represent higher concentration of potential stops and liquidations with configurable minimum weight thresholds for noise filtering.
🔶 ATR-Based Zone Height Framework
Utilizes Average True Range calculations with percentage-based multipliers to determine pocket vertical dimensions that adapt to market volatility conditions. The system creates ATR-scaled bands above swing highs for short liquidation zones and below swing lows for long liquidation zones, ensuring zone heights remain proportional to current market volatility for accurate level representation.
🔶 Dynamic Gradient Heatmap Visualization
Implements sophisticated color gradient system that maps pocket weights to intensity scales, creating intuitive visual representation of relative liquidity concentration. The system applies power-law transformation with configurable contrast adjustment to enhance differentiation between weak and strong liquidity pockets, using cyan-to-blue gradients for long liquidations and yellow-to-orange for short liquidations.
🔶 Intelligent Pocket State Management
Features advanced pocket tracking system that monitors price interaction with liquidation zones and updates pocket states dynamically. The system detects when price trades through pocket midpoints, marking them as "hit" with optional preservation or removal, and manages pocket extension for untouched levels with configurable forward projection to maintain visibility of approaching liquidity zones.
🔶 Real-Time Liquidity Scale Display
Provides gradient legend showing min-max range of pocket weights with 24-segment color bar for instant liquidity intensity reference. The system positions the scale at chart edge with volume-formatted labels, enabling traders to quickly assess relative strength of visible liquidation pockets without numerical clutter on the main chart area.
🔶 Touched Pocket Border System
Implements visual confirmation of executed liquidations through border highlighting when price trades through pocket zones. The system applies configurable transparency to touched pocket borders with inverted slider logic (lower values fade borders, higher values emphasize them), providing clear historical record of liquidated levels while maintaining focus on active untouched pockets.
🔶 Dual-Swing Density Enhancement
Features optional secondary swing width parameter that creates additional pocket layer with tighter pivot detection for increased liquidation level density. The system runs parallel pivot detection at both primary and secondary swing widths, populating chart with comprehensive liquidity mapping that captures both major swing liquidations and intermediate level clusters.
🔶 Adaptive Pocket Extension Framework
Utilizes intelligent time-based extension that projects untouched pockets forward by configurable bar count, maintaining visibility as price approaches potential liquidation zones. The system freezes touched pocket right edges at hit timestamps while extending active pockets dynamically, creating clear distinction between historical liquidations and forward-projected active levels.
🔶 Weight-Based Label Integration
Provides floating labels on untouched pockets displaying volume-formatted weight values with dynamic positioning that follows pocket extension. The system automatically manages label lifecycle, creating labels for new pockets, updating positions as pockets extend, and removing labels when pockets are touched, ensuring clean chart presentation with relevant liquidity information.
🔶 Performance Optimization Framework
Implements efficient array management with automatic clean-up of old pockets beyond lookback period and optimized box/label deletion to maintain smooth performance. The system includes configurable maximum object counts (500 boxes, 50 labels, 100 lines) with intelligent removal of oldest elements when limits are approached, ensuring consistent operation across extended timeframes.
This indicator delivers sophisticated liquidity zone analysis through pivot-based detection and volume-weighted intensity measurement with intuitive heatmap visualization. Unlike simple support/resistance indicators, the Liquidation Heatmap combines swing point identification with market activity metrics to identify where concentrated liquidations are likely to occur, while the gradient color system instantly communicates relative liquidity strength. The system's dual-swing architecture, configurable weight metrics, ATR-adaptive zone heights, and intelligent state management make it essential for traders seeking strategic position planning around institutional liquidity levels across cryptocurrency, forex, and futures markets. The visual heatmap approach enables instant identification of high-probability reversal zones where cascading liquidations may trigger significant price reactions.

only untested liquidity is shown.
2. Precision Anchoring: Lines originate exactly from the pivot High/Low
timestamp for maximum accuracy on higher timeframes.
3. Main Session Focus: Allows you to hide the background box of your
active trading session for the current day to keep the chart clean,
while still showing historical data.
4. Auto-Timeframe: Visuals are automatically disabled on timeframes
higher than 5 minutes to prevent clutter.
SETTINGS:
- Main Trading Session: Select the session you trade to hide its current box.
- Show History: Toggle to keep old swept lines or show only fresh ones.

Overview
This script provides a unified market structure mapping tool that automatically identifies and visualizes key intraday, daily, and weekly reference levels. It helps traders contextualize price action throughout the trading week by marking true session opens, previous day highs/lows, weekly highs/lows, and weekday opens, all with accurate historical anchoring and correct timezone handling.
What This Script Does
1. Intraday Session Opens (Tokyo, London, New York)
- Detects the exact candle where each session opens.
- Draws horizontal rays with labels.
- Automatically clears lines at the start of each new day.
- Uses a custom local-to-exchange timezone conversion system.
2. Weekly Levels
- Last week high and low (precise bar anchoring, not HTF aggregation)
- Current week open (also Monday open)
- Auto-reset on new week
- Levels are always drawn from the true candle where they formed.
3. Previous Day High & Low
- Continuously tracks intraday highs and lows.
- On a new day, stores yesterday’s values and anchors rays to the exact bars.
- Levels remain visible for the full current day and reset the next day.
4. Weekday Opens (Tue–Fri)
- Captures the exact opening price of Tuesday–Friday.
- Monday open = Week open, so it is not shown separately.
- Auto-reset on new week.
Timezone Logic (Original Feature)
The script converts:
local session times → exchange timezone → chart timestamps
It works correctly regardless of chart timezone or instrument exchange location.
Line Drawing Logic
- Finds the exact bar_index where each level forms.
- Draws rays extending to the right.
- Labels are placed ahead of price.
- Safe updating prevents “bar index too far” errors.
How to Use
- Identify daily/weekly structure.
- Track bias relative to session opens.
- Observe reactions around weekday opens.
- Compare price action to last week's range.
Originality
- Custom timezone conversion engine.
- True historical bar anchoring.
- Fully automated weekly/daily structural resets.
- Independent styling for each level type.
- Not a mashup; all components follow one unified logic.
Limitations
- Does not predict trend or direction.

--------------
Áttekintés
Ez az indikátor egy összetett piaci szerkezet-feltérképező eszköz, amely automatikusan megjeleníti a legfontosabb intraday, napi és heti referenciaértékeket. A célja, hogy a kereskedő tisztán lássa a piac aktuális környezetét: hol nyíltak a főbb devizapiaci szekciók, hogyan alakult a tegnapi tartomány, hol volt a múlt heti csúcs/mélypont, és hogyan nyitottak az egyes hétköznapok.
Mit tud a script?
1. Szekciónyitások (Tokyo, London, New York)
- Megkeresi a pontos gyertyát, amely a szekciónyitáskori árat tartalmazza.
- Vízszintes vonalat és címkét rajzol.
- Minden nap elején automatikusan törli a korábbi nap szintjeit.
- Egyedi időzóna-konverziós rendszerrel működik (helyi idő → tőzsdei idő → chart idő).
2. Heti szintek
- Múlt heti maximum és minimum (pontos gyertyapontra horgonyozva)
- Aktuális heti nyitóár (egyben a hétfői nyitó is)
- Új hét kezdetekor automatikusan frissül.
- A múlt heti high/low nem fix időpontra, hanem a valódi gyertyára kerül.
3. Előző napi High és Low
- Folyamatosan követi a napi maximumot és minimumot.
- Napváltáskor elmenti és pontos gyertyáról indítja a ray-t.
- A szintek a teljes nap folyamán megmaradnak, majd a következő nap törlődnek.
4. Hétköznapok nyitóárai (Kedd–Péntek)
- A kedd, szerda, csütörtök és péntek nyitóárát rögzíti és megjeleníti.
- A hétfői nyitó a Week Open, ezért külön nem jelenik meg.
- Heti váltáskor automatikusan törlődnek.
Időzóna-kezelés (egyedi megoldás)
A script a felhasználó helyi idejét átszámítja az instrumentum tőzsdei időzónájára, majd a chartra vetíti.
Ez biztosítja, hogy minden szekciónyitás helyesen jelenik meg, bármely chart vagy instrumentum esetén.
Vonalrajzolási logika
- A szintek a valódi bar_index alapján kerülnek rögzítésre.
- Jobbra nyúló ray-eket rajzol.
- A címkék mindig a jobb oldalon, előre helyezve jelennek meg.
- Biztonságos frissítési rendszer akadályozza meg a hibákat (pl. “bar index too far”).
Használat
- Napi/heti szerkezet meghatározása.
- Bias követése a session openekhez viszonyítva.
- Reakciók figyelése a hétköznapok nyitóárai körül.
- Összevetés a múlt heti tartománnyal.
Eredetiség
- Egyedi időzóna-kezelő motor.
- Igazi gyertyapont-alapú horgonyzás.
- Automatikus napi/heti reset.
- Minden szint külön stílusban konfigurálható.
- Nem mashup; egységes rendszer.
Összegzés
Professzionális, pontos eszköz a piaci szerkezet feltérképezésére, amely egyesíti a heti, napi és intraday szinteket, teljes időzóna-automatizálással és gyertyapontra horgonyzott kijelölésekkel.

🎓 UNDERSTANDING THE INDICATOR
What are Institutional Zones?
Areas where large players (institutions, market makers, smart money) have entered positions and actively defend them. These show up as:
High volume rejection wicks
Multiple tests that hold
Clear buying/selling pressure imbalance
Why Confluence Scoring?
Not all zones are equal. The 0-100 scoring system helps you quickly identify which zones have the most confirmation factors aligned, saving time and improving trade selection.
Why Zone Spacing Matters
Too many overlapping zones create analysis paralysis. The spacing filter ensures you see only distinct, meaningful levels.

Trend Follow Line Point📌 Trend Follow Line Point
The Trend Follow Line Point indicator removes the confusing, repainting-based swing connections commonly found in traditional swing tools.
It maintains consistent swing-point calculation, keeps structural swing lines intact even when trend lines are broken, and integrates market structure + trend + volatility + volume into one intuitive, visual indicator.
This tool is designed for:
Trend Following
Swing Structure Analysis
Volatility-Based Entry & Exit
Market Strength Evaluation
📊 Component Explanation
🔹 1. Swing High / Swing Low Detection
Based on the user-defined sensitivity (swgLen):
A Swing High forms when the current high exceeds the previous swgLen highs.
A Swing Low forms when the current low falls below the previous swgLen lows.
🔹 2. Swing-Based Structure Lines
Connect Swing Highs → Structural visualization
Connect Swing Lows → Structural visualization
These lines reveal the underlying market structure without repainting or disappearing unexpectedly.
🔹 3. Dynamic ATR + Volume Weighting
ATR values combined with the volume ratio (vol / volMA) create a dynamic volatility channel that reflects real-time market pressure.
🔹 4. Enhanced SuperTrend Calculation
Uses ATR-based stability to produce more realistic and smoother trend lines, reducing noise and improving signal clarity.
🔹 5. Trend Color Mapping
Up Trend → User-selected color
Down Trend → User-selected color
Visual trend direction and strength can be identified immediately.
🧭 How to Use
When Swing Highs/Lows are detected, structure lines are automatically drawn between previous swings.
Use these lines to evaluate support/resistance breaks and overall structural direction.
Manage risk with volatility guidance:
Higher ATR (volume-weighted) → wider trend spacing → increased risk
Lower ATR → tighter spacing → reduced risk
This helps with position sizing, entry timing, and exit decisions.

Support Line [by rukich]🟠 OVERVIEW
The indicator displays a floating line that acts as a support level. It's important to remember that any support level can be broken.
🟠 COMPONENTS
The indicator is based on the percentage difference between the closes of the n-th bar back and the current bar. The resulting percentage is smoothed to remove noise.
The indicator is displayed as a green-red line (the colors don’t carry meaning — they are used just for visual variety). When the price touches the support level, the bar background turns green.
For convenience, there is a label on the right side of the indicator showing the current value of the line.
🟠 HOW TO USE
The indicator includes several settings that can be adjusted, though optimal defaults are provided.
Settings:
Timeframe — specifies which timeframe’s data is used to calculate the line.
Candles back — specifies how many bars back from the current one are used.
The indicator should be used according to general support-zone logic. Since no support zone guarantees a price bounce, the optimal approach is to confirm the reaction after the price touches the line.
Example of use:
In the current example, the Timeframe in the indicator settings is set to 1 hour, and the currently open chart is 5 minutes. This means that on the 5-minute chart we see a 1-hour line. After the price touches the support line, you need to see a confirmation of the reaction to understand whether the support zone is holding the price.
In the examples, reaction confirmation is shown through: the formation of an M5 shift and the invalidation of an FVG M5- (the latter is more risky than the M5 shift):
🟠 CONCLUSION
The indicator shows a floating support zone, and when tested, you should confirm the reaction on a lower timeframe.
Momentum Market Structure ProThis first indicator in the Beyond Market Structure Suite gives you clear market structure at a glance, with adaptive support & resistance zones. It's the only SMC-style indicator built from momentum highs & lows, as far as I know. It creates dynamic support & resistance zones that change strength and resize intelligently, and gives you timely alerts when price bounces from support/rejects from resistance.
You’re free to use the provided entry and exit signals as a ready-to-use, self-contained strategy, or plug its structure into your existing system to sharpen your edge :
• Market structure bias may help improve a compatible system's win rate by taking longs only in bullish bias and shorts in bearish structure.
• Support/resistance can help trend traders identify inflection points, and help range traders define ranges.
🟩 HIGHLIGHTS
⭐ Unique market structure with different characteristics than purely price-based models.
⭐ Support and resistance created from only the extreme levels.
⭐ Support & resistance zones adapt to remain relevant. Zones are deactivated when they become too weak.
⭐ Long and short signals for a bounce from support/rejection from resistance.
🟩 WHY "MARKET STRUCTURE FIRST, ALWAYS"?
"There is only one side to the stock market; and it is not the bull side or the bear side, but the right side." — Jesse Livermore, Reminiscences of a Stock Operator (1923)
If the market is structurally against your trade, you're gonna have a bad time. So you must know what the market structure is before you plan your trade. The more precise and relevant your definition of market structure, the better.
🟩 HOW TO TRADE USING THIS INDICATOR (SIMPLE)
• Directional filter : The prevailing bias background can be used for any kind of trades you want to take. For example, you can long a bounce from support in a bullish market structure bias, or short a rejection from resistance in bearish bias.
• Entries : For more conservative entries, you could wait for a Candle Trend flip after a reaction from your chosen zone (see below for more about Candle Trend).
• Stops : The included running stop-loss level based on Average True Range (ATR) can be used for a stop-loss — set the desired multiplier, and use the level from the bar where you enter your trade.
• Take-profit : Similarly, you can set a Risk:Return-based take-profit target. Support and resistance zones can also be used as full or partial take-profit targets.
See the Advanced section below for more ideas.
🟩 SIGNALS
⭐ ENTRIES
You can enable signals and alerts for bounces from support and rejections from resistance (you'll get more signals using Adaptive mode). You can filter these by requiring corresponding market structure bias (it uses the bias you've already set for the background), and by requiring that Candle Trend confirm the move.
I've slipped in my all-time favourite creation to this indicator: Candle Trend. When price makes a Simple Low pivot, the trend flips bullish. When price then makes a Simple High pivot, the trend flips bearish (see my Market Structure library for a full explanation). This tool is so simple, yet I haven't noticed it anywhere else. It shows short-term trends beautifully. I use it mainly as confirmation of a move. You can use it to confirm ANY kind of move, but here we use it for bounces from support/rejections from resistance.
Note that the pivots and Zigzags are structure, not signals.
⭐ STOPS
You can use the supplied running ATR-based stop level to find a stop-loss level that suits your trading style. Set the desired multiplier, and use the level from the bar where you enter your trade.
⭐ TAKE-PROFIT
Similarly, you can set a take-profit target based on Risk:Return (R:R). If this setting is enabled, the indicator calculates the distance between the closing price and your configured stop, then multiplies that by the configured R:R factor to calculate an appropriate take-profit level. Note that while the stop line is reasonably smooth, the take-profit line varies much more, reflecting the fact that if price has moved away from your stop, the trade requires a greater move in order to hit a given R:R ratio.
Since the indicator doesn't know where you were actually able to enter a position, add a ray using the drawing tool and set an alert if you want to be notified when price reaches your stop or target.
🟩 WHAT'S UNIQUE ABOUT THIS INDICATOR
⭐ MOMENTUM PIVOTS
Almost all market structure indicators use simple Williams fractals. A very small number incorporate momentum, either as a filter or to actually derive the highs and lows. However, of those that derive pivots from momentum, I'm not aware of any that then create full market structure from it.
⭐ SUPPORT & RESISTANCE
Some other indicators also adjust S/R zones after creation, some use volume in zone creation, some increase strength for overlap, a few merge zones together, and many use price interactions to classify zones. But my implementation differs from others, as far as I can tell after looking at many many indicators, in seven specific ways:
+ Zones are *created* from purely high-momentum pivots, not derived or filtered from simple Williams pivots (e.g. `ta.pivothigh()`).
+ Zones are *weakened* dynamically as well as strengthened. Many people know that S/R gets stronger if price rejects from it, but this is only half the story. Different price patterns strengthen *or weaken* zones.
+ We use *conviction-weighted candle patterns* to adjust strength. Not simply +1 for price touching the zone, but a set of single-bar and multi-bar patterns which all have different effects.
+ The rolling strength adjustments are all *moderated by volume*. The *relative volume* forms a part of each adjustment pattern. Some of our patterns reward strong volume, some punish it.
+ We do our own candle modelling, and the adjustment patterns take this into account.
+ We *resize* zones as a result of certain candle patterns ("indecision erodes, conviction defends").
+ We shrink overlapping zones to their sum *and* add their strengths.
🟩 HOW TO TRADE USING THIS INDICATOR (ADVANCED)
In addition to the ideas in the How to Trade Using This indicator (Simple) section above, here are some more ideas.
You can use the market structure:
• As a bias for entries given by more reactive momentum resets, or indeed other indicators and systems.
• You could use a change in market structure to close a long-running trend-following position.
You can use the distance from a potential entry to the CHoCH line as a filter to choose higher-potential trades in ranging assets.
Confluence between market structure and your favourite trend indicator can be powerful.
Multi timeframe analysis
This is a bit of a rabbit hole, but you could use a split screen with this indicator on a higher timeframe (HTF) view of the same asset:
• If the 1D structure turns bullish, the next time that the 1H structure also flips bullish might be a good entry.
• Rejection from a HTF zone, confirmed by lower timeframe (LTF) structure, could be a good entry.
None of this is advice. You need to master your own system, and especially know your own strengths and weaknesses, in order to be a successful trader. An indicator, no matter how cool, is not going to one-shot that process for you.
In Adaptive mode, a skillful trader will be able to spot more opportunities to classify and use support and resistance than any algorithm, including mine, now that they've been automatically drawn for you.
If you are doing historical analysis, note that the "Calculated bars" setting is set to a reasonably small number by default, which helps performance. Either increase this number (setting to zero means "use all the bars"), or use Bar Replay to examine further back in the chart's history. If you encounter errors or slow loading, reduce this number.
🟩 SUPPORT & RESISTANCE
A support zone is an area where price is more likely to bounce, and a resistance zone is an area where price is more likely to reject. Marking these zones up on the chart is extremely helpful, but time-consuming. We create them automatically from only high-momentum areas, to cut noise and highlight the zones we consider most important.
In Simple mode, we simply mark S/R zones from momentum and Implied pivots. We don't update them, just deactivate them if price closes beyond them. Use this mode if you're interested in only recent levels.
In Adaptive mode, zones persist after they're traversed. Once the zones are created, we adjust them based on how price and volume interact with them. We display stronger zones with more opaque fills, and weaker zones with more transparent fills. To calculate strength, we first preprocess candles to take into account gaps between candles, because price movement after market is just as important in its own way. The preprocessing also redefines what constitutes upper and lower wicks, so as to better account for order flow and commitment. We use these modelled candle values, as well as their relative amplitude historically, rather than the raw OHLC for all calculations for interactions of price and zones. It's important to understand, when trying to figure out why the indicator strengthened or weakened a zone, that it sees fundamental price action in a different way to what is shown on standard chart candles (and in a way that can't easily be represented accurately on chart candles).
Then, we strengthen or weaken , and resize support and resistance zones dynamically using different formulas for different events, based on principles including these:
• The close is the market's "vote", the momentum shift anchor.
• Defended penetrations reveal validated liquidity clusters.
• Markets contract to defended levels.
• "The wick is the fakeout, but the close tells you if institutions held the level." — ICT (Inner Circle Trader)
Adaptive mode is more powerful, but you might need to tweak some of the Advanced Support & Resistance settings to get a comfortable number of zones on the chart.
🟩 MOMENTUM PIVOTS
The building blocks of market structure are Highs and Lows — places where price hits a temporary extreme and reverses. All the indicators I could find that create full market structure do so from basic price pivots — Williams fractals, being the highest/lowest candle wick for N candles backwards and forwards (there are some notable first attempts on TradingView to use momentum to define pivots, but no full structure). "Highest/lowest out of N bars" is the almost universal method, but it also picks up somewhat arbitrary price movements. Recognising this, programmers and traders often use longer lookbacks to focus on the more significant Highs and Lows. This removes some noise, but can also remove detail.
My indicator uses a completely different way of thinking about High and Low pivots. A High is where *momentum* peaks and falls back, and a low is where it dips and then recovers. While this is happening, we record the extremes in price, and use those prices as the High or Low pivot zones.
This deliberately picks out different, more meaningful pivots than any purely price-based approach, helping you focus on the swings that matter. By design, it also ignores some stray wicks and other price action that doesn't reflect significant momentum. Price action "purists" might not like this at first, but remember, ultimately we want to trade this. Check and see which levels the market later respects. It's very often not simply the numerically higher/lower local maxima and minima, but the levels that held meaning, interpreted here through momentum.
The first-release version uses the humble Stochastic as the structural momentum metric. Yes, I know — it's overlooked by most people, but that's because they're using it wrong. Stochastic is a full-range oscillator with medium excursions, unlike RSI, say, which is a creeping oscillator with reluctant resets. This makes Stoch (at the default period of 14) not quite reactive enough for on-the-ball momentum reset entry signals, but close to perfect (no metric is 100%) for structural pivots.
Stochastic is also a solid choice for structure because divergences are rare and not usually very far away in terms of price. More reactive momentum metrics such as Stochastic RSI produce very noisy structure that would take a whole extra layer of interpreting (see Further Research, below).
For these reasons, I may or may not add other options for momentum. In the initial release, I've added smoothed RSI as an alternative just to show it's possible, which takes even longer than Stochastic to migrate from one extreme to another, creating an interesting, longer-term structure.
🟩 IMPLIED PIVOTS
We want pivots to mark important price levels so that we can compute market direction and support & resistance zones from them.
In this context, we see that some momentum metrics, and Stochastic in particular, tend to give multiple consecutive resets in the same direction. In other words, we get High followed by High, or Low followed by Low, which does not give us the chance to create properly detailed structure. To remedy this, we simply take the most extreme price action between two same-direction pivots, and create an Implied pivot out of it, after the second same-direction pivot is created.
Obviously these pivots are created very late. Recalling why we wanted them, we realise that this is fine. By definition , price has not exceeded the Implied Pivot level when they're created. So they show us an interesting level that is yet untested.
Implied Pivots are thus created indirectly by momentum but defined directly by price. They are for structure only. We choose not to give them a Dow type (HH, HL, LH, LL) and not to include them in the Main Zigzag to emphasise their secondary nature. However, Implied Pivots are not "internal" or "minor" pivots. There is no such concept in the current Momentum Market Structure model.
If you want less responsive, more long-term structure, you can turn Implied Pivots off.
🟩 DOW STRUCTURE
Dow structure is the simplest form of market structure — Higher Highs (HHs) and Higher Lows (HLs) is an uptrend (showing buyer dominance), and vice-versa for a downtrend.
We label all Momentum (not Implied) Pivots with their Dow qualifier. You can also choose to display the background bias according to the Dow trend.
There is an input option to enable a "Ranging" Dow state, which happens when you get Lower Highs in an uptrend or Higher Lows in a downtrend.
🟩 SMC-STYLE STRUCTURE (BOS, CHOCH)
The ideas of trend continuation after taking out prior highs/lows and looking for early signs of possible reversal go back to Dow and Wyckoff, but have been popularised by SMC as Break Of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHoCH).
BOS can be used as a trigger: for example:
• Wait for a bullish break of structure
• Then attempt to buy the pullback
• Cancel if structure breaks bearish (meaning, we get a bearish CHoCH break)
How to buy the pullback? This is the trillion-dollar question. First, you need solid structure. Without structure, you got nothin'. Then, you want some identified levels where price might bounce from.
If only we incorporated intelligent support and resistance into this very indicator 😍
Creating and maintaining correct BOS and CHoCH continuously , without resetting arbitrarily when conditions get difficult, is technically challenging. I believe I've created an implementation of this structure that is at least as solid as any other available.
In general, BOS is fully momentum‑pivot‑driven; CHoCH is anchored to momentum pivots but maintained mainly by raw price extremes relative to those anchors (breaks are obviously pure price). This means that the exact levels will sometimes differ from your previous favourite market structure indicator.
We have made some assumptions here which may or may not match any one person's understanding of the "correct" way to do things, including: BOS is not reset on wicks because, for us, if price cannot close beyond the BOS there is no BOS break, therefore the previous wick level is still important. The candidate for CHoCH on opposing CHoCH break *is* reset on a wick, because we want to be sure to overcome the leftover liquidity at that new extreme before calling a Change of Character. The CHoCH is moved on a BOS break. For a bullish BOS break, the new CHoCH is the lowest price *since the last momentum pivot was confirmed, creating the BOS that just broke*, and vice-versa for bearish. If there's a stray wick before that, which doesn't shift momentum, we don't care about it.
🟩 ZIGZAG
The Major Swing Zigzag dynamically connects momentum highs and lows (e.g., from a Higher Low to the latest Higher High), adjusting as new extremes form to reveal the overall trend leg.
The Implied Structure Zigzag joins momentum pivots and Implied pivots, if enabled.
🟩 REPAINTING
It's really important to understand two things before asking "Does it repaint?":
1. ALL structure indicators repaint, in the sense of drawing things into the past or notifying you of things that happened in past bars, because by definition, structure needs some kind of confirmation, which takes at least one bar, usually several. This is normal.
2. Almost all indicators of ANY kind repaint in that they display unconfirmed values until the current bar closes. This is also normal.
Most features of this indicator repaint in the ordinary, intended ways described above: the pivots (Implied doubly so), BOS and CHoCH lines, and formation of S/R zones.
The Zigzags, by design, adjust themselves to new pivots. The active lines often change and attach themselves to new anchors. This is a form of repainting. It's important to note that the Zigzags are not signals. They're there to help visualise market structure, and structure does change. Therefore, I prioritised clearly explaining what price did rather than preserving its history.
One of the "bad" kinds of repainting is if a signal is printed when the bar closes, but then on a later bar that "confirmed" signal changes. This is a fundamental issue with some high timeframe implementations. It's bad because you might already have entered a trade and now the indicator is pretending that it never signalled it for you. My indicators do not do this (in fact I wrote an entire library to help other authors avoid this).
If you are ever in any doubt, play with an indicator in Bar Replay mode to see exactly what it does.
To understand repainting, see the official docs: www.tradingview.com
🟩 FURTHER RESEARCH
I've attempted to answer two of the tricky problems in technical analysis in Pine: how to do robust and responsive market structure, and how to maintain support and resistance zones once created. However, this just opens up more possibilities. Which momentum metrics are suitable for structure? Can more reactive metrics be used, and how do we account for divergences in a structural model based on key horizontal levels? Which sets of rules give the best results for maintaining support and resistance? Does the market have a long or a short memory? Is bar decay a natural law or a coping mechanism?

Adaptive Support & Resistance ProAdaptive Support & Resistance Pro – Description
Adaptive Support & Resistance Pro is an advanced S/R tool designed to automatically identify key support and resistance zones based on a combination of RSI, CMO dynamics, and pivot logic. This indicator provides precise and reactive levels that form only when specific technical conditions are met, filtering out noise and delivering more reliable S/R signals.
It is ideal for technical traders who want to understand where price naturally pauses, reverses, or consolidates—without the need to manually draw lines on every chart.
🔍 Key Features
1. Automatic Support & Resistance Detection
The indicator uses:
RSI (9)
CMO logic based on HMA
Pivot structure (len = 2)
to generate valid Support and Resistance zones.
A level is drawn only when all required conditions align, preventing false or weak signals.
2. Multi-Timeframe Analysis (MTF)
You can view the chart on one timeframe (e.g., 5m)
and display Support/Resistance levels from another timeframe (e.g., 1H, 4H, D) at the same time.
This allows for:
viewing higher-timeframe structures on lower charts,
better planning of entries and exits,
avoiding trades inside strong zones that may not be visible on the current timeframe.
All of this is controlled through the input:
S/R Timeframe
3. Adjustable Line Thickness (visual enhancement)
Using the input:
Line Width
you can increase the thickness of support/resistance lines to:
make important zones more visible,
improve chart readability,
emphasize S/R levels according to your visual preference.
This is especially useful on fast markets (Forex, Crypto) and on higher timeframes where clarity of levels is essential.
4. Clear distinction between Support and Resistance
Support lines have their own customizable color (default: green)
Resistance lines have their own customizable color (default: red)
You can freely adjust the colors to match your personal TradingView layout or theme.
5. Alerts (Notification System)
The built-in alert:
"New S/R line"
triggers whenever a new support or resistance level is detected.
This helps you:
monitor important levels without constantly watching the chart,
react quickly to new structure signals,
stay aware of market changes in real time.

Support Resistance Levels v1.0Support Resistance Levels v2.0 automatically detects the most important price levels on the chart by analyzing market structure, swing points, and repeated reactions.
Instead of manually drawing lines, this tool identifies clusters of highs and lows, measures how often price respected each zone, and highlights strong support or resistance with clear visuals. It also marks tight consolidations and builds a structural regression channel when a trend sequence is confirmed.
The goal is simple: faster chart scanning, cleaner context, and a more objective view of where price is likely to react next.
Cluster Lines
– Horizontal support/resistance levels built from repeated swing reactions. Green when below price, red when above. Thicker lines indicate stronger levels.
Recent HH & LL Lines
– Dashed lines marking the most recent swing high and swing low for quick breakout context.
Consolidation Box
– A blue range box appears when price compresses inside a tight structure and extends until breakout.
Structural Regression Channel
– A trendline with upper and lower bands drawn when a clean trend sequence forms, showing directional bias and reaction zones.
Kalman Trend Sniper# KALMAN TREND SNIPER
## ORIGINALITY STATEMENT
The Kalman Trend Sniper combines adaptive trend detection with precision entry validation to identify high-probability trading opportunities. Unlike static moving averages that use fixed parameters, this indicator adapts to changing market volatility through ATR-based gain adjustment and distinguishes trending from ranging markets using ADX regime detection.
The indicator's unique contribution is its three-phase entry validation system: signals must hold for three bars, undergo a pullback test to the signal level, and receive confirmation through price action before generating an entry. This structured approach helps traders enter established trends at favorable retracement levels rather than chasing momentum.
---
## TECHNICAL METHODOLOGY
### Kalman Filter Implementation
This indicator implements an Alpha-Beta variant of the Kalman filter, a recursive algorithm that estimates trend from noisy price data:
1. Prediction: kf = kf + velocity
2. Error calculation: error = price - kf
3. Correction: kf = kf + gain * error
4. Velocity update: velocity = velocity + (gain * error) / 2
The gain parameter determines filter responsiveness. Higher gain values track price more closely but increase noise sensitivity, while lower values provide smoother output but lag price changes.
### Adaptive Gain Mechanism
The indicator adjusts gain dynamically based on volatility:
Volatility Factor = Current ATR / Long-term ATR
Adaptive Gain = Base Gain * (0.7 + 0.6 * Volatility Factor)
This ATR ratio increases responsiveness during high-volatility periods and reduces sensitivity during consolidations, addressing the fixed-parameter limitation of traditional moving averages. The volatility factor is bounded between configurable minimum and maximum values to prevent extreme adjustments.
### Regime Detection
The indicator uses the Average Directional Index (ADX) to distinguish market conditions:
- Trending markets (ADX above threshold): Full gain applied, signals generated
- Ranging markets (ADX below threshold): Gain reduced 25%, fewer signals
This regime awareness helps reduce whipsaw signals during sideways consolidation periods.
### Signal Line Validation System
When the Kalman line changes direction in trending conditions, the indicator draws a horizontal signal line at the low (for long signals) or high (for short signals) of the signal candle. This line represents a potential support or resistance level.
The validation system then monitors three phases:
Phase 1 - Hold Period: Price must remain above (long) or below (short) the signal line for three consecutive bars. This requirement filters weak signals where price immediately violates the signal level.
Phase 2 - Test: After the hold period, the system waits for price to pull back and touch the signal line, with configurable tolerance for volatile instruments.
Phase 3 - Confirmation: Within eight bars of the test, a confirmation candle must close above (long) or below (short) the test candle's body, demonstrating renewed momentum. If confirmation does not occur within eight bars, the validation attempt expires.
Successful validation generates an R label at the entry point. This three-phase structure helps identify entries where trend direction and support/resistance validation align.
---
## USAGE INSTRUCTIONS
### Signal Interpretation
Triangle Signals:
- Upward triangle (teal): Kalman line turns bullish in trending market (ADX above threshold)
- Downward triangle (red): Kalman line turns bearish in trending market
Signal Lines (horizontal):
- Teal line: Potential long support level at signal candle low
- Red line: Potential short resistance level at signal candle high
- Gray line: First opposite-color candle after signal (initial reversal pressure)
R Labels (optional, disabled by default):
- Green R below price: Validation complete for long entry
- Red R above price: Validation complete for short entry
Stop Levels:
- Red dots: Long stop level (Kalman line minus ATR multiplier)
- Teal dots: Short stop level (Kalman line plus ATR multiplier)
### Dashboard Information
The dashboard displays real-time indicator state:
- Trend: Current Kalman direction (BULL/BEAR)
- Regime: Market classification (Trending when ADX exceeds threshold, Ranging otherwise)
- Gain: Current adaptive gain value
- Vol Factor: Volatility ratio (current ATR / long-term ATR)
- ADX: Trend strength (higher values indicate stronger trends)
- Z-Score: Standard deviation distance from Kalman line (when enabled)
- Stop Dist: Current ATR-based stop distance
- Lines: Number of active signal lines displayed
- R-Status: Validation system state (Idle / Waiting / Testing)
### Trading Applications
Trend Following Approach:
1. Wait for triangle signal in trending market (ADX above threshold)
2. Enter immediately at signal candle close or wait for pullback
3. Place stop at displayed stop level
4. Trail stop using Kalman line as dynamic support/resistance
Validation Entry Approach (conservative):
1. After triangle signal, observe three-bar hold period
2. Wait for pullback to signal line (test phase)
3. Enter on R label confirmation
4. Place stop below/above signal line
5. Provides higher probability entries but reduces trade frequency
Z-Score Mean Reversion (when enabled):
1. Watch for Z-Score exceeding entry threshold (default +/-2.0)
2. Consider counter-trend entries when price touches Kalman line
3. Target return to Kalman line (Z-Score near zero)
4. Use Z-Score threshold as stop level for extreme continuation
### Optimal Conditions
The indicator performs optimally in clearly trending markets where ADX consistently exceeds the threshold. Performance degrades in sideways, choppy conditions.
Recommended timeframes:
- 1-5 minute charts: Use Crypto_1M preset (faster adaptation)
- 15-60 minute charts: Use Crypto_15M preset (balanced)
- Hourly charts: Use Forex preset (smoother)
- Daily charts: Use Stocks_Daily preset (long-term trends)
Market conditions:
- High volatility (Vol Factor above 1.5): Expect faster adaptation, wider stops needed
- Normal volatility (Vol Factor 0.7-1.5): Standard behavior
- Low volatility (Vol Factor below 0.7): Expect slower adaptation, tighter stops possible

## PARAMETER DOCUMENTATION
### Kalman Filter Settings
Preset Mode: Select optimized configuration for specific markets
- Custom: Manual parameter control
- Crypto_1M: Base Gain 0.05, ATR 7 (fast response for 1-5 minute crypto charts)
- Crypto_15M: Base Gain 0.03, ATR 14 (balanced for 15-60 minute crypto charts)
- Forex: Base Gain 0.02, ATR 14 (standard for forex pairs)
- Stocks_Daily: Base Gain 0.01, ATR 20 (smooth for daily stock charts)
Base Gain (0.001-0.2): Core Kalman filter responsiveness parameter. Higher values increase sensitivity to price changes. Low values (0.01-0.02) provide smooth output with fewer whipsaws but slower trend changes. High values (0.06-0.08) offer fast response with more signals but increased whipsaw risk.
Adaptive (checkbox): When enabled, automatically adjusts gain based on ATR ratio. Recommended to keep enabled for dynamic volatility adaptation.
ATR (5-50): Short-term Average True Range period for current volatility measurement. Default 14 is industry standard. Lower values respond faster to volatility changes.
Long ATR (20-200): Long-term ATR period for baseline volatility comparison. Default 50 provides stable reference. The ratio between ATR and Long ATR determines adaptive adjustment magnitude.
Regime Filter (checkbox): Enables ADX-based trending/ranging detection. When enabled, reduces gain by 25 percent during ranging markets to minimize false signals.
ADX Period (7-30): Period for ADX calculation. Default 14 is standard. Lower values respond faster to trend strength changes.
Threshold (15-40): ADX level distinguishing trending from ranging markets. Default 25. Above threshold: trending (generate signals normally). Below threshold: ranging (reduce sensitivity).
Min Vol / Max Vol (0.3-3.0): Bounds for volatility factor adjustment. Prevents extreme gain changes during unusual volatility spikes or quiet periods. Default minimum 0.5, maximum 2.0.
Stop ATR x (1.0-3.0): Multiplier for ATR-based stop loss distance. Default 2.0 places stops two ATRs from Kalman line. Use 1.5 for tight stops (intraday), 2.5-3.0 for wide stops (swing trading).
Show Signals (checkbox): Displays triangle signals when Kalman changes direction in trending markets. Disable to use indicator purely as dynamic support/resistance without signals.
Z-Score (checkbox): Enables mean-reversion signal generation based on statistical deviation from Kalman line.
Period (10-100): Lookback period for Z-Score standard deviation calculation. Default 20 bars. Longer periods produce smoother, less sensitive readings.
Entry (1.5-3.5): Standard deviation threshold for Z-Score signals. Default 2.0 generates signals at plus/minus two standard deviations (approximately 95th percentile moves).
Bull / Bear Colors: Customize Kalman line colors for uptrend (default teal) and downtrend (default red).
Fill (checkbox): Shows semi-transparent fill between price and Kalman line for visual trend emphasis.
### Signal Line System Settings
Signal Lines (checkbox): Displays horizontal signal lines at low (long) or high (short) of signal candles. These function as dynamic support/resistance levels.
Reverse Lines (checkbox): Shows gray horizontal lines at first opposite-colored candle after signal. Helps identify initial resistance points in new trends.
Max Lines (0-20): Maximum number of signal lines to display simultaneously. Older lines are removed as new signals appear. Use 1-2 for clean charts, 3-5 for recent support/resistance history.
Style (Solid/Dotted/Dashed): Visual style for signal and reverse lines. Dotted provides subtle appearance, solid is most prominent.
Line % / Label % (0-100): Transparency percentage for lines and labels. Zero is fully opaque, 100 is invisible.
R Labels (checkbox): Shows R labels when validation confirmation occurs. Default disabled. Enable if you want visual confirmation of successful pullback entries.
Tolerance % (0-1.0): Price deviation tolerance for test candle detection. Zero requires exact touch. 0.5 allows 0.5 percent deviation for volatile instruments.
### Dashboard Settings
Show Dashboard (checkbox): Toggles visibility of information panel. Disable for clean chart presentation.
Position: Choose dashboard location from nine positions (Top/Middle/Bottom combined with Left/Center/Right).

## LIMITATIONS AND WARNINGS
This indicator is a technical analysis tool that processes historical price data. It does not predict future price movements.
Inherent limitations:
1. Lagging nature: Like all trend indicators, the Kalman filter lags price. Signals occur after trend changes begin, not before.
2. Ranging markets: Generates fewer signals and reduced performance when ADX falls below threshold. Not optimized for sideways consolidation.
3. Whipsaw risk: In choppy, indecisive markets near ADX threshold, signals may reverse quickly despite regime filtering.
4. Parameter sensitivity: Inappropriate Base Gain settings can cause over-trading (too high) or missed trends (too low).
5. Validation requirement: The three-phase confirmation system provides higher accuracy but significantly reduces trade frequency. Not all trends produce valid pullback entries.
Not suitable for:
- Scalping strategies requiring instant signals (Kalman filter has intentional smoothing)
- Ultra-high frequency trading (indicator updates once per bar close)
- Markets with extreme overnight gaps (stops may be exceeded)
- Strategies requiring signals on Heikin Ashi, Renko, Kagi, Point and Figure, or Range charts
Risk management requirements:
This indicator provides trend direction and signal levels but does not incorporate position sizing, risk management, or account balance considerations. Users must implement appropriate position sizing, maximum daily loss limits, and portfolio diversification. Past performance does not indicate future results.
Optimal usage:
- Works optimally in clearly trending markets where ADX consistently exceeds threshold
- Performance degrades in sideways, choppy conditions
- Designed for swing trading and position trading timeframes (15-minute and above)
- Requires confirmation from price action or additional technical analysis
---
## NO REPAINT GUARANTEE
This indicator operates on bar close confirmation only. All signals, signal lines, and validation labels appear exclusively when candles close. Historical signals remain exactly where they appeared. This makes the indicator suitable for automated trading and reliable backtesting. What you see in historical data matches what appeared in real-time.
---
## ALERTS
The indicator provides eight alert conditions:
1. Kalman Buy Signal: Fires when upward triangle appears (bullish trend change in trending market)
2. Kalman Sell Signal: Fires when downward triangle appears (bearish trend change in trending market)
3. Trend Change to Bullish: Fires whenever Kalman line changes to bullish (regardless of ADX)
4. Trend Change to Bearish: Fires whenever Kalman line changes to bearish (regardless of ADX)
5. SCT-R Long Retest Confirmed: Fires when green R label appears for long validation
6. SCT-R Short Retest Confirmed: Fires when red R label appears for short validation
7. SCT Test Long Detected: Fires when test candle appears for long signal (before confirmation)
8. SCT Test Short Detected: Fires when test candle appears for short signal (before confirmation)
Alert messages include context about bar close confirmation and current price levels.
---
## CALCULATION TRANSPARENCY
While complete proprietary optimization methodology is not disclosed, the core technical approach is fully explained: Alpha-Beta Kalman filter with ATR-based adaptive gain adjustment and ADX regime detection. The signal line validation system uses a three-phase structure (hold, test, confirmation) with configurable parameters. Users can understand indicator functionality and make informed decisions about application.

TCP DMITCP DMI - Advanced Technical Indicator
This advanced DMI (Directional Movement Index) indicator enhances the traditional DMI by adding intelligent dynamic support and resistance levels based on historical price action analysis.
KEY FEATURES:
1. Standard DMI Components:
- DI+ (Directional Indicator Positive): Measures upward price movement
- DI- (Directional Indicator Negative): Measures downward price movement
- ADX (Average Directional Index): Measures trend strength
- Middle line at 20 for reference
2. Dynamic Support & Resistance Levels:
The indicator automatically identifies the most significant support and resistance levels by analyzing the last 400 candles (customizable) and detecting where DI lines have been rejected most frequently.
TWO TIERS OF LEVELS:
A) Normal Levels (Solid Lines):
- Support: Below 15
- Resistance: Above 25
- Style: Solid lines with 60% transparency
- These represent moderate support/resistance zones
B) Strong Levels (Dashed Lines):
- Strong Support: Below 10
- Strong Resistance: Above 30
- Style: Dashed lines with 40% transparency (more visible)
- These represent critical support/resistance zones
3. Intelligent Display Logic:
- When DI is ABOVE 20: Shows resistance levels (where price might face selling pressure)
- When DI is BELOW 20: Shows support levels (where price might find buying support)
- Each DI line (+ and -) has its own color-coded support/resistance levels for easy identification
4. Color Coding:
- DI+ levels use GREEN (customizable)
- DI- levels use RED/ORANGE (customizable)
- Support/Resistance lines match their respective DI colors but with reduced opacity
- This makes it instantly clear which DI the support/resistance belongs to
5. Rejection Detection Algorithm:
The indicator scans historical data to find peaks and troughs at specific levels, counting how many times price was rejected at each level. The level with the most rejections becomes the displayed support or resistance.
CUSTOMIZABLE PARAMETERS:
- ADX Smoothing: Default 14
- DI Length: Default 14
- Lookback Period: 400 candles (range: 50-500)
- Line Length: 15 candles forward + 15 candles back = 30 candle span
- DI+ Color: Customizable (default green)
- DI- Color: Customizable (default red)
- ADX Color: Customizable (default blue)
- Normal S/R Transparency: Default 60%
- Strong S/R Transparency: Default 40%
HOW TO USE:
1. Trend Identification:
- When DI+ crosses above DI-: Potential uptrend
- When DI- crosses above DI+: Potential downtrend
- ADX above 25: Strong trend
- ADX below 20: Weak trend or ranging market
2. Support/Resistance Trading:
- Watch for price reaction when DI approaches displayed support/resistance levels
- Solid lines = moderate levels
- Dashed lines = strong levels (more significant)
- The more rejections at a level, the more significant it becomes
3. Entry/Exit Signals:
- Entry: When DI bounces off support (below 20) or resistance (above 20)
- Exit: When DI breaks through major support/resistance levels
- Strong levels (dashed) are more reliable for major decisions
ADVANTAGES:
✓ Reduces chart clutter by only showing relevant levels based on current DI position
✓ Automatically adapts to changing market conditions
✓ Color-coded for instant visual recognition
✓ Two-tier system helps prioritize trading decisions
✓ Historical rejection analysis provides data-backed levels
✓ Fully customizable to match any trading style
BEST USED FOR:
- Swing trading
- Trend following
- Support/resistance trading strategies
- Identifying potential reversal zones
- Confirming breakout validity
- Risk management (stop-loss placement)
This indicator combines the power of traditional DMI with smart support/resistance detection, giving traders a comprehensive tool for technical analysis without overwhelming the chart with excessive information.
Defended Price Levels (DPLs) — Melvin Dickover ConceptThis indicator identifies and draws horizontal “Defended Price Levels” (DPLs) exactly as originally described by Melvin E. Dickover in his trading methodology.
Dickover observed that when extreme relative volume and extreme “freedom of movement” (volume-to-price-movement ratio) occur on the same bar, especially on bars with large gaps or unusually large bodies, the closing price (or previous close) of that bar very often becomes a significant future support/resistance level that the market later “defends.”
This script automates the detection of those exact coincident spikes using two well-known public indicators:
Relative Volume (RVI)
• Original idea: Melvin Dickover
• Pine Script implementation used here: “Relative Volume Indicator (Freedom Of Movement)” by LazyBear
Link:
Freedom of Movement (FoM)
• Original idea and calculation: starbolt64
• Pine Script: “Freedom of Movement” by starbolt64
Link:
How this indicator works
Calculates the raw (possibly negative) LazyBear RVI and starbolt64’s exact FoM values
Normalizes and standardizes both over the user-defined lookback
Triggers only when both RVI and FoM exceed the chosen number of standard deviations on the same bar (true Dickover coincident-spike condition)
Applies Dickover’s original price-selection rules (uses current close on big gaps or 2× body expansion candles, otherwise previous close)
Draws a thin maroon horizontal ray only when the new level is sufficiently far from all previously drawn levels (default ≥0.8 %) and the maximum number of levels has not been reached
Keeps the chart clean by limiting the total number of significant defended levels shown
This is not a republish or minor variation of the two source scripts — it is a faithful automation of Melvin Dickover’s specific “defended price line” concept that he manually marked using the coincidence of these two indicators.
