REVERSAL DETECTION PRO v3.0 - NON-REPAINTING
Adaptive Zigzag Reversal Detection for Scalpers & Day Traders
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
CHART EXAMPLE
The indicator is shown running on MNQ1! (Micro E-mini Nasdaq-100
futures) on a 2-minute chart. The indicator works on all symbols
and timeframes, but is optimized for futures scalping on 1-5
minute charts.
WHY I BUILT THIS
Most reversal indicators out there repaint like crazy, flipping
signals after the fact and making you second-guess every trade.
Plus they're too noisy in choppy markets or way too laggy in
trends, so I kept missing entries or getting faked out. I wanted
something solid that sticks to its guns without repainting and
adapts to volatility without me tweaking it every 5 minutes.
This indicator solves those problems by using an adaptive zigzag
algorithm that adjusts to market volatility automatically. Once a
reversal signal appears, it's locked in place - no repainting, no
disappearing signals. The ATR-based sensitivity system means it
works across different market conditions without constant adjustment.
WHAT YOU'LL SEE ON YOUR CHART
When you add this indicator, here's what shows up:
- GREEN LABELS with "REVERSAL" and price level = Bullish reversal
confirmed at swing low
- RED LABELS with "REVERSAL" and price level = Bearish reversal
confirmed at swing high
- HORIZONTAL LINES extending from each reversal = Reference for
stops and targets
- PREVIEW LABELS (lighter colors) = Potential reversals forming in
real-time (optional)
- CANDLE COLORS: Green for bullish trends, red for bearish, purple
for neutral
- PURPLE BOXES = Supply/demand zones marking reversal areas
- INFO TABLE (top corner) = Shows sensitivity, current ATR,
threshold, and trend status
The indicator uses three EMAs (9/14/21 periods) to determine trend
direction, which drives the candle coloring system. This helps you
see whether you're in a bullish, bearish, or choppy market at a
glance.
HOW IT WORKS
The core reversal detection uses a zigzag calculation that tracks
price swings and identifies reversals when price moves by a
dynamically calculated threshold. The reversal amount is determined
by taking the maximum of three values:
1. Percentage-based threshold (adjusts to instrument price level)
2. Absolute price movement threshold (minimum move required)
3. ATR-based threshold (adapts to current volatility)
This multi-factor approach ensures the indicator works consistently
across different assets and market conditions. The non-repainting
mechanism uses confirmed bar data - once a pivot is detected at a
swing high or low, the label and horizontal line are permanently
locked at that exact wick price.
Five sensitivity presets automatically adjust the ATR multiplier:
- Very High (0.8x ATR) = More signals, captures small moves
- High (1.2x ATR) = Active trading
- Medium (2.0x ATR) = Balanced (default)
- Low (2.8x ATR) = Filters noise
- Very Low (3.5x ATR) = Only major reversals
Advanced users can select "Custom" to manually tune ATR multiplier,
percentage threshold, and calculation method.
HOW I USE IT
I mainly trade /MNQ futures on 1-5 minute charts for scalping -
that's my bread and butter. The indicator works decent on other
stuff like stocks or forex too, but I dial sensitivity up for
faster scalps during volatile sessions.
My typical trade setup:
1. Wait for a confirmed REVERSAL label (green for long, red for
short)
2. Check that it lines up with the EMA trend color (bullish candles
for longs, bearish for shorts)
3. If it's a "strong" signal where the reversal hits during a trend
flip, that's my green light
4. Quick check for nearby supply/demand zones to avoid fighting
them
5. Enter with a tight stop below/above the reversal line
6. Target 1:1 or 2:1 risk/reward, usually out in 5-10 minutes
The horizontal lines from each reversal give me logical stop
placement levels, and the supply/demand zones help identify
potential profit targets or areas to avoid.
SETTINGS & CUSTOMIZATION
Signal Modes:
- Confirmed Only = Most reliable, only shows locked-in signals
(recommended)
- Confirmed + Preview = Shows both confirmed and potential signals
- Preview Only = For testing/development
Sensitivity Presets:
Start with "Medium" and adjust based on your trading style:
- Scalping volatile sessions = "High" or "Very High"
- Day trading = "Medium"
- Swing trading = "Low" or "Very Low"
Display Options:
- Choose candle display type (Solid, Trend, Bars, Volume, None)
- Show/hide supply/demand zones
- Adjust zone box extension length
- Customize info table position and size
- Control maximum lines displayed
Alert System:
- Bullish/Bearish reversal alerts
- EMA trend change alerts
- Strong signal alerts (reversal + trend alignment)
- "Any reversal" catch-all alert
IMPORTANT - READ THIS FIRST
Don't rely on this indicator alone. Always pair it with your own
price action or volume confirmation, because no indicator is
perfect. Avoid cranking sensitivity too high in ranging markets or
you'll get whipped. Test on demo first, and remember it's
non-repainting so signals are final, but preview mode can tease
you into early entries if you're not patient.
Risk management is key - don't size up just because a signal looks
good. This indicator helps identify potential reversals, but YOU
still need to manage your trades, set proper stops, and control
position size based on your account risk tolerance.
WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT
Unlike simple pivot indicators or manual support/resistance drawing:
- Adapts automatically to volatility changes (ATR-based)
- Never repaints - signals lock in place permanently
- Reversal detection works with trend context (EMAs)
- Supply/demand zones mark key structural levels
- One-click sensitivity adjustment via presets
- Works across multiple timeframes and instruments
The zigzag reversal algorithm adapts to volatility using ATR, while
the EMA system provides trend context so you're not trading
reversals blindly against the trend. The supply/demand zones help
identify key levels where price has reversed before. It's built
specifically for active traders who need reliable, non-repainting
signals.
BEST PRACTICES
✅ DO:
- Start with "Medium" sensitivity on demo account
- Wait for confirmed signals before entering
- Use horizontal lines for stop placement
- Check trend context (candle colors) before trading reversals
- Combine with volume analysis or price action
- Test different sensitivity settings for your instrument
❌ DON'T:
- Trade every signal blindly without context
- Use "Very High" sensitivity in choppy/ranging markets
- Ignore the trend direction (candle colors)
- Enter on preview labels (they can disappear)
- Skip proper risk management
- Overtrade just because signals appear
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
- Pine Script Version: v6
- Non-Repainting: Yes (confirmed signals only)
- Uses security(): No (no higher timeframe data)
- Uses non-standard chart types: No (all calculations on real OHLC)
- Alert Compatible: Yes (7 alert types)
- Calculations: Current timeframe only, no lookahead bias
DISCLAIMER
This indicator is for educational purposes only and does not
constitute financial advice. Trading futures, stocks, and forex
involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all
investors. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Always use proper risk management, never risk more than you can
afford to lose, and test thoroughly on demo accounts before live
trading.

Absorption Pro V4This indicator detects absorption-style reversal setups and scores them with a multi-factor model.
It builds key levels from ZigZag/Fibonacci and round numbers across multiple timeframes, then flags potential absorption candles using volume and a delta-proxy filter plus strict candle-structure rules. Signals are validated with trend context (MA/SMMA/EMA/ATR), VWAP positioning, and optional momentum/volatility filters (RSI, Stoch, CCI, MACD, ADX, Volume Profile). Only score-threshold crosses can trigger long/short markers and alerts (defaults tuned for NQ).

## 🔱 **Shiva Zone Indicator — True Consolidation Detection**
The **Shiva Zone Indicator** identifies true consolidation phases in any market using a powerful shrinking-range algorithm. Instead of relying on fixed ranges or ATR compression alone, this model detects **micro-consolidation** by comparing tightening volatility windows, ensuring only **high-quality, compact zones** are plotted.
Most consolidation indicators produce long, extended boxes.
**Shiva Zone does not.**
It only marks consolidation when price tightens *locally*, making it ideal for breakout traders.
---
## 🔍 **How the Indicator Works**
A *Shiva Zone* is detected when:
* The recent price range is **shrinking** compared to the previous one
* Volatility compresses naturally
* Price stays within a narrow percentage threshold
* Expansion stops the zone (no endless boxes)
This ensures consolidation is identified **precisely where traders need it**, not over hundreds of candles.
When consolidation ends, volatility expansion triggers a zone closure.
Breakouts above or below the box can lead to explosive moves.
---
## ⚡ **Included Alerts**
The indicator includes 4 powerful, actionable alerts:
1. **Shiva Zone Started** – A new consolidation zone is forming
2. **Shiva Zone Ended** – Volatility begins expanding
3. **Bullish Breakout** – Price breaks above the Shiva Zone
4. **Bearish Breakout** – Price breaks below the Shiva Zone
These alerts make it easy to automate breakout entries or monitor compression zones across markets.
---
## 🎯 **Best Use Cases**
* Breakout Trading
* Scalping
* Intraday Structure Trading
* Swing Breakout Analysis
* Compression / Expansion Mapping
* Multi-Timeframe Structure Tracking
Works perfectly on **Forex, Indices, Crypto, Commodities, and Stocks**.
---
## 📌 **Recommended Settings**
* Lookback: **8–20**
* Max % Range: **0.4–0.8**
* Minimum Bars Inside Zone: **4–6**
Shorter settings → more sensitive
Longer settings → stronger zones
---
## 🧠 **Why It's Called “Shiva Zone”**
In market mythology:
* **Brahma** = Creation of momentum
* **Vishnu** = Sustaining the trend
* **Shiva** = Compression before transformation
The **Shiva Zone** is the phase where the market contracts its energy before a structural shift or breakout.

STAX# STAX - MapleStax Candle by Candle Automation
## Overview
STAX is a trend-following indicator that automates the "MapleStax Candle by Candle (CBC)" methodology for futures and equity trading. This system uses a higher timeframe anchor trend combined with lower timeframe execution filters to identify high-probability pullback entries in the direction of the prevailing trend.
## How It Works
### 1. Anchor Trend Detection (10-Minute CBC Flip)
The core of this system is the CBC (Candle by Candle) flip logic on the anchor timeframe (default: 10 minutes):
- **Bullish Flip**: Occurs when a 10m candle closes ABOVE the high of the previous 10m candle
- **Bearish Flip**: Occurs when a 10m candle closes BELOW the low of the previous 10m candle
- Once a flip occurs, the trend remains in that direction until an opposite flip happens
The anchor trend is calculated using `request.security()` with `lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off` and indexed historical data ` ` to ensure non-repainting behavior. This means signals will not change or disappear after they appear.
### 2. Execution Filters (Current Timeframe)
On your current chart timeframe (recommended: 3 minutes), the indicator applies two key filters:
**EMA Confirmation**:
- For LONG signals: 9-period EMA must be greater than 20-period EMA
- For SHORT signals: 9-period EMA must be less than 20-period EMA
**VWAP Filter** (Strict or Target mode):
- **Strict Mode** (default): Only shows signals when price is on the correct side of VWAP
- LONG signals only above VWAP
- SHORT signals only below VWAP
- **Target Mode**: Shows all valid signals but uses VWAP as the take profit target when price is on the "wrong" side
### 3. Entry Signal Logic
The indicator looks for pullback entries:
- **BUY Signal**: 10m trend is Bullish + EMA 9 > 20 + Current 3m candle is RED (close < open)
- Logic: Wait for a red pullback candle in a bullish trend with bullish EMA alignment
- **SELL Signal**: 10m trend is Bearish + EMA 9 < 20 + Current 3m candle is GREEN (close > open)
- Logic: Wait for a green retracement candle in a bearish trend with bearish EMA alignment
This pullback logic helps you enter after a brief counter-trend move, improving risk/reward compared to chasing breakouts.
### 4. Risk Management
**Stop Loss**: Automatically set at the previous 10-minute candle's low (for longs) or high (for shorts). This represents the last swing point that would invalidate the trend structure.
**Take Profit**:
- When aligned with VWAP: Fixed tick-based target (default: 20 ticks, adjustable)
- When counter to VWAP: Target is VWAP itself, providing a logical profit target
The indicator displays TP and SL levels visually and alerts when they are hit.
### 5. Signal Management
To prevent over-trading, the indicator includes a **cooldown period** (default: 10 bars minimum between signals). This stops signal spam in choppy conditions and forces you to wait for the market to develop before taking another trade.
### 6. Time Session Filters
Two separate trading sessions can be configured with 12-hour clock inputs:
- **Session 1**: Default 9:30 AM - 4:00 PM (New York regular hours)
- **Session 2**: Optional second session for extended hours or different time zones
Signals only appear during enabled sessions, helping you trade during liquid market hours.
## What Makes This Original
This indicator automates a specific methodology (MapleStax CBC) that combines multiple proven concepts:
1. Higher timeframe trend structure (CBC flip logic)
2. Lower timeframe execution timing (EMA filters)
3. Pullback entry strategy (counter-colored candles)
4. Volume-based target selection (VWAP integration)
5. Swing-based stop placement (previous anchor swing points)
The combination of these elements into an automated system with visual feedback and alert functionality is what provides value beyond using these indicators separately.
## How to Use
1. **Choose Your Timeframes**:
- Anchor timeframe: 10 minutes (adjustable) for trend direction
- Execution timeframe: 3-5 minutes recommended for entries
2. **Select VWAP Mode**:
- **Strict Mode**: More conservative, only trades with VWAP bias
- **Target Mode**: More aggressive, uses VWAP as profit target
3. **Configure Sessions**: Enable Session 1 and optionally Session 2 to match your trading hours
4. **Set Risk Parameters**: Adjust take profit ticks based on your instrument and risk tolerance
5. **Watch for Signals**:
- Green "BUY" label below bars = Long entry
- Red "SELL" label above bars = Short entry
- Dashed red line = Stop loss level
- Green "TP ✓" or Red "SL ✗" labels show exit points
6. **Monitor the Status Table**: The table in the top-right shows:
- Current 10m trend direction
- EMA alignment status
- VWAP position
- Active session status
- Current signal state
- Active trade information
7. **Set Alerts**: Use TradingView's alert system with the built-in alert conditions:
- BUY Signal
- SELL Signal
- Take Profit Hit
- Stop Loss Hit
## Best Practices
- **Recommended Timeframes**: 3m execution chart with 10m anchor works well for active trading
- **Instrument Selection**: Works best on liquid futures contracts (ES, NQ, CL, etc.) and major forex pairs
- **Session Trading**: Enable Session 1 for New York hours; avoid low-volume periods
- **Backtest First**: Always backtest the settings on your specific instrument before live trading
- **Use Realistic Parameters**: Default 20-tick TP is conservative; adjust based on instrument volatility
## Limitations and Warnings
**This indicator does NOT**:
- Guarantee profitable trades (past performance does not indicate future results)
- Account for slippage, commissions, or real-world execution challenges
- Work equally well in all market conditions (performs poorly in low-volume, range-bound markets)
- Replace proper risk management and position sizing
- Provide financial advice
**Repainting**: This indicator is designed to be non-repainting. Signals use indexed historical data from the anchor timeframe, meaning they will not change or disappear after they appear. However, the current bar's status will update in real-time until it closes.
**Market Conditions**: This trend-following pullback system performs best in trending markets with clear directional bias. In choppy, range-bound conditions, expect more false signals despite the cooldown filter.
**Stop Loss Execution**: The stop loss levels shown are theoretical. In fast-moving markets, actual fills may occur at worse prices due to slippage.
## Input Parameters
**Anchor Settings**:
- Anchor Timeframe: Higher timeframe for trend detection (default: 10 minutes)
**EMA Settings**:
- Fast EMA: Short-period EMA for execution bias (default: 9)
- Slow EMA: Long-period EMA for execution bias (default: 20)
**VWAP Settings**:
- Strict VWAP Filter: Toggle between strict filtering and target mode
**Signal Management**:
- Min Bars Between Signals: Cooldown period to prevent spam (default: 10 bars)
**Time Filters**:
- Session 1 & 2: Configure up to two trading sessions with start/end times in 12-hour format
**Risk Management**:
- Take Profit (Ticks): Fixed tick target when aligned with VWAP (default: 20)
**Visual Settings**:
- Show Trend Background: Background color based on 10m trend
- Show Stop Loss Lines: Display SL levels on chart
- Show EMAs: Display 9/20 EMAs on chart
- Show VWAP: Display daily VWAP on chart
## Technical Notes

Trailing Stoploss % BasedA minimalistic trend-following indicator that plots a single trailing line based on a user-defined percentage using price highs and lows.
The line:
Trails price in trends
Moves only in the direction of the trend
Flattens when price is not making new highs or lows
Acts as support in uptrends and resistance in downtrends
Useful on all instruments and all timeframes for clean trend tracking and trailing stop management.
Volume Variance SuppressionVolume Variance Suppression Indicator
This indicator measures the variance of traded volume over a rolling window to detect periods of participation compression.
When volume variance falls below a defined threshold, it signals:
Reduced initiative order flow
Dominance of passive liquidity
Market balance / consolidation rather than trend
These suppression phases often precede volatility expansion, failed auctions, or impulsive moves, as liquidity builds and positioning becomes crowded.
The indicator is not directional and should be used as a market state filter, not a standalone signal. It helps distinguish balance vs expansion regimes and improves trade selection by aligning strategies with the current microstructural environment.
Institutional Volatility Expansion & Liquidity Thresholds (IVEL)Overview
The IVEL Engine is an institutional-grade volatility modeling tool designed to identify the mathematical boundaries of price delivery. Unlike retail oscillators that use fixed scales, this script utilizes dynamic ATR-based multiples to map Institutional Premium and Discount zones in real-time.
How to Use
To maximize the effectiveness of the IVEL Engine, traders should focus on Price Delivery at the extreme thresholds:
Identifying Institutional Premium (Short Setup) : When price expands into the Upper Red Zone, it has reached a mathematical exhaustion point. Seek short-side entries when price shows signs of rejection from this level back toward the Fair Value Baseline.
Identifying Institutional Discount (Long Setup) : When price reaches the Lower Green Zone, it is considered "cheap" by institutional algorithms. Look for long-side absorption or accumulation patterns within this zone.
Mean Reversion Targets: The Fair Value Baseline (Center Line) acts as the primary magnetic target. Successful trades taken at the outer thresholds should use the baseline as the first objective for profit-taking.
Alerts & Execution Strategy
The IVEL Engine is designed for automated monitoring so you don't have to watch the screen 24/7. To set up your execution workflow:
Set the Alert : Right-click the indicator and select "Add Alert." Set the condition to "Price Crossing Institutional Premium" (Upper Red) or "Price Crossing Institutional Discount" (Lower Green).
Wait for the Hit : Do not market-enter as soon as the alert fires. The alert tells you price has entered a High-Probability Liquidity Zone.
Confirm the Rejection : Once alerted, drop down to a lower timeframe (e.g., 5m or 15m) and look for a "Shift in Market Structure" or an SMT Divergence.
Execute : Enter once the rejection is confirmed, targeting the Fair Value Baseline as your primary TP1.
Methodology
The script anchors to an EMA-based baseline and projects expansion bands that adapt to current market conditions.
Value Area : The blue inner region where the majority of trading volume occurs.
Liquidity Exhaustion : The red and green outer regions where the probability of "Smart Money" reversal is highest.
Big Trend Catcher: Quad-Gate & VCP & ATR trailing Swing TradeThe Strategy Philosophy
This is designed for Daily Charts to capture the large chunks if not all of a primary trend. It focuses on the "VCP" (Volatility Contraction Pattern), combined with high-grade momentum filtering.
1. How VCP (The Quiet Zone) is Calculated
The script identifies "Volatility Contraction" by measuring the Bollinger Band Width (BBW).
* The Math: It calculates the standard BBW: $(Upper Band - Lower Band) / Mid Band$.
* The "Quiet" Threshold: It compares the current width to its own 50-period Simple Moving Average.
* The Signal: When the current width is narrower than the 50-period average, the stock is in a "Quiet Zone" (represented by the blue background). This indicates energy is coiling for a potential breakout.
2. How Rate of Change (ROC) is Calculated
Unlike a standard ROC, this "Wizard" version uses a smoothed momentum filter to reduce whipsaws:
* Raw ROC: First, it calculates the raw percentage change over 15 bars: $100 x (Close / Close(15) - 1).
* Smoothing: This raw value is then smoothed using a 10-period EMA.
* The Gate: The ROC Gate only turns green when this smoothed value is greater or equal to 0, ensuring the stock has genuine upward velocity before you enter.
3. What the Indicators on the Chart Show
* Yellow Line (20 EMA): Your "Tactical Line." It tracks short-term momentum and acts as a trigger for Phoenix re-entries.
* Blue/Gray Line (100 EMA): Your "Regime Filter." It turns Blue when the trend slope is positive and Gray when negative.
* Thin Gray Outer Bands: These are Bollinger Bands set at 3 Standard Deviations from the 100 EMA. They mark extreme "Climax Zones" where price is statistically overextended.
* Stepped Red/Green Line (ATR Stop): The "Iron Floor." It uses a 20-period ATR with a 3.0 multiplier and an HHV (Highest High Value) lookback to ensure the stop only moves up, never down.
* Yellow Crosses (Gate Wait): These small icons appear above the bars when a signal has been detected but one or more "Wizard Gates" (such as the ROC or 100 EMA Slope) are not yet satisfied, signifying the strategy is waiting for full confirmation.
4. How to Trade This Strategy
* Step 1: The Setup: Look for the Blue Background on the daily chart, signifying a Volatility Contraction.
* Step 2: The Entry: An Initial Entry (Lime Triangle) fires when the price breaks out of the Quiet Zone with a volume spike. This volume must be greater than 1.3 times the 20-period Simple Moving Average of volume to confirm significant buying interest. An entry only occurs when all Quad-Gates (ROC, EMA Slope, Price > ATR) are satisfied.
* Step 3: Pyramiding: If the trend gains "Velocity" (price > 10% from entry), the script will signal a second unit to maximize gains during runaway moves.
* Step 4: The Exit: Sell the entire position if the price closes below the ATR Trailing Stop (Trend Death) or if the 100 EMA trend turns down.
5. The Phoenix Re-entry
If you are stopped out but the stock immediately recovers above the 20 EMA within 10 bars, a Phoenix Entry (Orange Triangle) will fire. This allows you to catch "Power Resumptions" where the initial shakeout was a bear trap.
Session Liquidity Sweep + Trend ConfirmationThis strategy aims to capture high-probability intraday trades by combining liquidity sweeps with a trend confirmation filter. It is designed for traders who want a systematic approach to trade breakouts during specific market sessions while controlling risk with ATR-based stops.
How it Works:
Session Filter: Trades are only considered during a defined session (default 9:30 - 11:00). This helps avoid low-volume periods that can lead to false signals.
Trend Confirmation: The strategy uses a 50-period EMA to identify the market trend. Long trades are only taken in an uptrend, and short trades in a downtrend.
Liquidity Sweep Detection:
A long entry occurs when price dips below the prior N-bar low but closes back above it, indicating a potential liquidity sweep that stops being triggered before the trend continues upward.
A short entry occurs when price spikes above the prior N-bar high but closes below it, signaling a potential sweep of stops before the downward trend resumes.
ATR-Based Risk Management:
Stop loss is calculated using the Average True Range (ATR) multiplied by a configurable factor (default 1.5).
Take profit is set based on a risk-reward ratio (default 2.5x).
Position Sizing: Default position size is 5% of equity per trade, making it suitable for risk-conscious trading.
Inputs:
Session Start/End (HHMM)
Liquidity Lookback Period (number of bars to define prior high/low)
ATR Length for stop calculation
ATR Stop Multiplier
Risk-Reward Ratio
EMA Trend Filter Length
Visuals:
Prior Liquidity High (red)
Prior Liquidity Low (green)
EMA Trend (blue)
Why Use This Strategy:
Captures stop-hunt moves often triggered by larger market participants.
Only trades with trend confirmation, reducing false signals.
Provides automatic ATR-based stop loss and take profit for consistent risk management.
Easy to adjust session time, ATR, EMA length, and risk-reward to suit your trading style.
Important Notes:
Assumes 0.05% commission and 1-pip slippage. Adjust according to your broker.

## **Brahma Creation Field (BCF) — SALSA© Edition**
The **Brahma Creation Field (BCF)** Indicator is an *original* SALSA©-based imbalance model designed to identify areas where price rapidly expands with strong intent and leaves behind a “Creation Field.”
This indicator is an entirely proprietary rewrite based on **Vedic + SALSA© Interpretation of Market Birth**, and does **not reuse or copy** any external code. It is not affiliated with or derived from any other indicator.
---
## 🔱 **What Is a Brahma Creation Field (BCF)?**
In SALSA© Market Dynamics:
* **Brahma** = Creation
* **Vishnu** = Continuation
* **Shiva** = Transformation (destruction/reset)
A **BCF** is the *birth moment* of a new price narrative —
a zone created when price displaces strongly enough to leave a gap between the candle and the candle two bars earlier.
This is interpreted as:
* **Bullish BCF** → A strong upward creation event
* **Bearish BCF** → A strong downward creation event
These “Creation Fields” often act as **reaction points, continuation areas, or reversal zones**.
---
## 🔰 **Key Features**
### **✔ Automatic Detection of Brahma Creation Fields**
Identifies both bullish and bearish creation zones using clean imbalance structure.
### **✔ Creation Strength Line (CSL)**
A midline through the BCF used to confirm strength, bias, and equilibrium.
### **✔ Integrity Break Logic**
When price invalidates the BCF, the zone fades and becomes inactive.
### **✔ Real-Time Updates**
BCFs extend automatically as long as they are active.
### **✔ Alerts Included**
* Bullish BCF Formed
* Bearish BCF Formed
* BCF Integrity Broken
* Price Inside Active BCF
* CSL Cross (Midline Cross)
### **✔ 100% Original Codebase**

ATR Volatility RegimeATR Volatility Regime
A volatility classification indicator that uses ATR (Average True Range) percentile ranking to identify LOW , NORMAL , HIGH , or EXTREME volatility conditions.
Displayed as a separate pane oscillator (0–100 scale) with colored zones.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
💡 WHY THIS INDICATOR?
Most volatility indicators show raw ATR — a number without context. Is ATR = 50 high or low? Depends on the asset and recent history.
This indicator answers: "Is current volatility high or low for THIS asset, right now?"
What it adds over standard ATR:
Percentile context — Compares current ATR to its own history
Regime classification — Actionable labels instead of raw numbers
Visual zones — Instant read without interpretation
Optional MTF — Lock to a fixed timeframe while viewing another
Auto-adapts — Works on any asset without manual threshold tuning
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📐 CORE CONCEPTS
ATR (Average True Range)
Measures volatility in price units — how much an asset typically moves per bar. Directionless (magnitude only, not direction).
Calculation:
True Range = the greatest of:
High − Low (current bar's range)
|High − Previous Close| (gap up captured)
|Low − Previous Close| (gap down captured)
ATR = Moving average of True Range over N bars (default: 14)
Percentile Rank (Pctl)
Answers: "What percentage of historical values is the current value greater than?"
Pctl = 0% → Lowest ATR in lookback period (extreme compression)
Pctl = 50% → Median ATR (typical volatility)
Pctl = 100% → Highest ATR in lookback period (extreme expansion)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🎯 WHAT IT DOES
Classifies current volatility into four regimes:
LOW (< 25th percentile) — Compression, breakout likely brewing
NORMAL (25th–50th percentile) — Typical market conditions
HIGH (50th–75th percentile) — Elevated volatility, use caution
EXTREME (> 75th percentile) — Rare expansion, tighten stops or stay flat
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📊 DISPLAY COMPONENTS
Oscillator Line (0–100)
ATR percentile rank over time. Color matches regime:
Blue = LOW
Gray = NORMAL
Orange = HIGH
Red = EXTREME
Zone Backgrounds
Colored bands at threshold levels for instant visual reference.
Status Label
VOL — Current regime
ATR — Raw ATR value (for stop sizing)
Pctl — Percentile rank (0–100%)
TF — Active timeframe (chart or fixed)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📈 HOW TO USE
LOW Volatility (Pctl < 25%):
Market compressed — "calm before the storm"
Watch for breakout setups
Pctl = 0% often precedes significant moves
NORMAL Volatility (Pctl 25–50%):
Typical conditions
Standard position sizing and stops
HIGH Volatility (Pctl 50–75%):
Elevated movement — reduce size
Widen stops to avoid noise
EXTREME Volatility (Pctl > 75%):
Rare, intense conditions
Avoid new entries or tighten risk
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚙️ SETTINGS
ATR Settings:
ATR Length (default: 14) — Period for ATR calculation
Percentile Lookback (default: 100) — Bars for percentile ranking
Timeframe:
Use Fixed Timeframe (default: off) — Lock calculation to specific TF

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📋 SUGGESTED LOOKBACK BY ASSET
Crypto — 100 bars (fast regime shifts)
Stocks — 252 bars (one trading year)
Forex — 100–150 bars
Commodities — 150–200 bars (seasonal patterns)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔔 ALERTS
Vol → EXTREME
Vol → HIGH
Vol → LOW
Vol exits HIGH
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
💡 PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS
Stop-Loss Sizing:
Use raw ATR for stops. Example: Stop = Entry − (1.5 × ATR)
Position Sizing:
Reduce size when percentile is HIGH or EXTREME.
Entry Filtering:
LOW regime = prepare for breakout
EXTREME regime = avoid new entries
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📝 NOTES
Works on any timeframe — adapts to chart or locks to fixed TF
ATR is non-directional — magnitude only
Percentile auto-adapts to each asset's volatility profile

Risk Manager & ATR TS Strategy📌 Overview
This script is not a simple indicator mashup. It is a Risk & Trade Planning Engine that combines a strategy-based signal generator with a snapshot-based risk, sizing, and expectancy model. It is designed to support real trading decisions, not just to generate cosmetic signals or overfitted backtests.
The core idea is to separate market logic from risk logic, evaluating each trade only at the moment it becomes actionable using fixed reference points that do not change afterward.
🎯 What makes this script original Unlike most tools that merely combine indicators or visualize entries, this script introduces several non-standard design choices:
Snapshot-based risk sizing (The "Time Machine" logic).
Expected Value (EV) calculation in both Money and R-multiples.
Kelly Criterion applied with weighted multi-target logic.
Strict architectural separation between the signal engine and the risk engine.
Decision-oriented dashboard instead of decorative plots.
These components are not merged for convenience; they are architecturally dependent on each other.
🧠 Conceptual Architecture
1️⃣ Signal Engine (Market Context) The signal engine is based on an ATR Trailing Stop system combined with trend regime filters (ADX and Choppiness Index). Its only responsibility is to answer one question: "Is this a valid directional opportunity right now?" It does not manage risk; it only identifies the opportunity.
2️⃣ Snapshot Logic (Key Design Choice) When a valid signal occurs, the script captures a Snapshot of the Entry price, Initial Stop-Loss, and Risk Distance. This snapshot is frozen at signal time. It is never updated, even if the trailing stop moves later. This avoids the most common error in TradingView scripts: recalculating position size using a moving stop, which falsifies the risk data.
3️⃣ Risk Engine (Sizing & Control) Using the snapshot values, the script computes:
Monetary risk per trade (capped at your user-defined max).
Position size derived from the fixed stop distance.
Effective leverage (informational).
4️⃣ Multi-Target Reward Model Instead of assuming a single take-profit, the script supports multiple targets with user-defined probability weights. From this, it derives a Weighted Risk/Reward Ratio, which feeds directly into the EV and Kelly calculations.
5️⃣ Expected Value (EV) in Money & R The script calculates EV in your account currency (real impact) and normalized in R-multiples (statistical quality). This allows you to compare trade quality across different assets and timeframes objectively.
6️⃣ Kelly Criterion (Conservative) The Kelly Criterion is applied using the weighted reward model and is always subordinated to your hard risk cap. If Kelly suggests a negative value, the script advises "NO TRADE". It is used as a filter, not a leverage amplifier.
📊 Dashboard & Alerts The on-chart dashboard summarizes everything you need at the moment of the signal:
Risk % and Position Size
Expected Value (Money + R)
Kelly Suggestion
Signal Strength
Alerts are triggered once per signal (on bar close) using snapshot data, ensuring no repainting and no spam.
🔍 How this is NOT a mashup Each component exists because another component depends on it. Snapshot logic is required for valid risk sizing; Risk sizing is required for EV normalization; Weighted RR is required for meaningful Kelly. Removing any part breaks the system’s logic.
📘 How to use
Choose your account size and risk parameters in the settings.
Configure your stop logic and reward targets.
Wait for a valid signal.
Evaluate the dashboard: Decide if the trade quality (EV, R, Risk) justifies participation.
⚖️ Open-Source Notice This script is published under the Mozilla Public License 2.0 (MPL-2.0). It does not copy or replicate any single public script. Standard concepts (ATR, ADX) are used as building blocks, but the architecture and calculations are original.
🚫 Disclaimer This script is a planning and evaluation engine designed to help traders think in terms of risk, expectancy, and discipline. It does not guarantee profitability.
✅ Summary This is a professional-grade framework built to answer one core question: “Is this trade worth taking, given my risk and my expectations?” Not every signal is a trade, and not every trade deserves capital. This script helps you make that distinction.
ATR Stop LinesATR Stop Lines
Plots dynamic stop-loss levels on the price chart based on ATR (Average True Range). Optionally adjusts stop distance based on volatility regime.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🎯 WHAT IT DOES
Green line — Long stop (Close − ATR × multiplier)
Red line — Short stop (Close + ATR × multiplier)
Lines move with price and volatility. When regime-adjust is enabled, stop distance widens in high volatility and tightens in low volatility.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📐 REGIME-ADJUSTED MULTIPLIERS
When enabled, the multiplier auto-adjusts based on the ATR percentile:
LOW (< 25th pctl) — 1.0× ATR — Tight stops, small moves expected
NORMAL (25–50th pctl) — 1.5× ATR — Standard distance
HIGH (50–75th pctl) — 2.0× ATR — Wider to avoid noise
EXTREME (> 75th pctl) — 2.5× ATR — Widest, or skip the trade
Disable regime-adjust to use a fixed multiplier for all conditions.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📈 HOW TO USE
Entry: Note stop line level when entering a trade. Set stop-loss at or beyond that level.
Trailing: Move stop to new line level as price advances in your favor.
Sizing: Wider stop = smaller position to maintain constant risk.
Example:
BTC Daily, ATR = \$2,000, Regime = HIGH (2.0×)
Entry: \$50,000 → Long stop: \$46,000 / Short stop: \$54,000

EEQI [Environment Quality Index] PyraTime The Problem: Why Good Strategies Fail
The number one reason traders lose capital is not a lack of strategy—it is forced execution in poor environments.
Most indicators (RSI, MACD, Stochastic) are continuously active, generating signals even when the market is dead, choppy, or chaotic. A breakout strategy that prints money in a trend will destroy your account in a consolidation range. A mean-reversion system that works in chop will fail during a parabolic expansion.
The Solution: PyraTime EEQI The Execution Environment Quality Index (EEQI) is a "Gatekeeper" layer for your trading. It does not tell you what to buy or sell; it tells you if you should be trading at all.
By aggregating Volatility, Price Structure, and Efficiency into a single composite score, the EEQI answers the most critical question in discretionary trading: "Is the market efficient enough to deploy capital right now?"
How It Works: The 3 Core Engines
The EEQI calculates a raw "Environment Score" (from -2 to +4) by analyzing three distinct dimensions of price action.
1. Volatility Engine (Usability)
The Logic: Measures the "Alive-ness" of the market using ATR Percentiles.
The Filter: It detects "Dead Zones" (where price is too flat to hit targets) and "Chaos Zones" (where volatility is too dangerous).
Smart Feature (Parabolic Override): If price moves significantly (>2x ATR) in a single candle, the engine recognizes this as "High Momentum" rather than chaos, unlocking Green signals during breakouts.
2. Structure Engine (Bar Quality)
The Logic: Analyzes the relationship between candle bodies, wicks, and overlap.
The Filter: It penalizes "Barbed Wire" price action—candles with long wicks and high overlap—which indicate indecision and algo-chop.
The Goal: We want to trade during "Clean Flow," where candle bodies are large and overlap is low.
3. Efficiency Engine (Directional Flow)
The Logic: Compares Net Displacement (start-to-finish distance) vs. Total Distance Traveled.
The Filter: Identifies "Whipsaw" conditions where price moves a lot but goes nowhere.
Smart Feature (Velocity Lock): If price travels a massive distance quickly, the efficiency requirement is relaxed to catch explosive moves that might otherwise look "messy."
The "Smart Gatekeepers"
Even if the Core Engines look good, the EEQI applies three final safety checks before granting a PRIME status.
Regime Persistence (Stability Check): The market must hold a high score for a set number of bars (default: 1) before the signal turns Green. This prevents "fake-outs" where a single anomaly candle tricks you into entering a bad trend.
Volume Validation (Liquidity Check): Price movement without participation is a trap. The EEQI checks Relative Volume (RVOL). If volume is below average (e.g., lunch hour, holidays, or late-night sessions), the score is capped at "Fair" or "Low Vol," preventing execution in thin liquidity.
Macro Context (HTF Filter): You cannot trade against the higher timeframe. The EEQI checks the trend and volatility of the Higher Timeframe (default: Weekly). If the macro view is compressed or dead, the local signal is vetoed.
How to Read the HUD
The Dashboard (Bottom Right) gives you an instant read on the market state.
🟢 PRIME (+4): Execution Optimal. The market is trending, efficient, and backed by volume. This is the "Green Light" for your strategy.
🔵 FAIR (+1 to +3): Tradeable. Conditions are decent, but one factor (e.g., volume or structure) is imperfect. Exercise caution.
⚪ NEUTRAL (0): Indecision. The market is transitioning. Stand aside.
🟡 BUILDING: Wait. The market is good, but hasn't proven itself yet (Persistence Check).
🟠 POOR / LOW VOL: Chop. Price is messy or lacking participation.
🔴 AVOID (-2): Danger Zone. The market is either dead flat or violently chaotic. Do not trade.
Settings & Customization
The indicator comes with calibrated presets for different asset classes:
Crypto: Tolerates higher volatility and requires stronger efficiency confirmation.
Forex: Stricter dead-zone filters to handle ranging sessions.
Indices: Balanced settings for standard equity hours.

Session VWAP Cumulative BiasThe Session VWAP Cumulative Bias indicator is designed to differentiate between "choppy" price action and true "institutional" trend days. Unlike standard VWAP indicators that only show where price is now, this tool tracks the cumulative sentiment of the entire session.
Core Functions:
Cumulative Z-Score Logic: It calculates the distance between price and VWAP (in Standard Deviations) and sums it up over the course of the day. This reveals the "weight" of the market bias—the longer price stays pinned away from the VWAP, the more extreme the histogram becomes.
Scale Protection: It includes a "Capping" mechanism that prevents morning gaps or low-volume outliers from distorting the scale, ensuring the histogram remains readable from open to close.
Momentum vs. Regime Toggles: Users can switch between VWAP Slope (measuring the speed of the average's movement) and Cumulative Bias (measuring total session dominance).
Visual price Overlay: It automatically colors the price candles and plots a session-anchored VWAP line on the main chart, providing a clear visual of when price is "fair" versus "overextended."
How to read it:
Trend Confirmation: A steadily growing "mountain" in the histogram confirms an institutional trend day where dips are being bought (or rips sold).
Mean Reversion: When price hits a new high but the Cumulative Histogram begins to round off or diverge, it signals that the "elastic band" is stretched and price is likely to return to the orange VWAP line.
Regime Shifts: A cross of the zero-line on the histogram indicates a total shift in session control from buyers to sellers (or vice versa).
Tokyo Sessions HighlighterOverview
This indicator provides a clean, visual representation of the Asian (Tokyo) trading session by highlighting its specific price range. It is designed to help traders identify the initial intraday range and key liquidity levels established during the Tokyo open.
Features
Dynamic Range Box: Automatically plots a box from the session's highest high to its lowest low.
Real-Time Updates: The box height and price labels update live as new session extremes are reached during the designated hours.
Professional Aesthetic: Features a minimalist gray fill, solid black borders, and black text for a clean, professional look on both light and dark chart themes.
Instant Data: Displays a label at the bottom of the box showing the exact price range in the format: Tokyo (Lowest Value - Highest Value).
How To Use
Settings: Adjust the Tokyo Session Time and Timezone in the indicator inputs to match your broker's server time or local requirements.
Strategy: Use the highlighted range to identify potential breakouts or to treat the session high and low as institutional liquidity zones for the London and New York sessions.
Customization: You can adjust the colors and transparency of the box through the script settings menu.
Volatility Radar Volatility Radar
A comprehensive VIX-based dashboard for volatility regime analysis and trade bias confirmation. Designed for options traders who use VIX levels to inform directional bias and identify potential traps in market positioning.
Dashboard Columns
1. 10-Min Rule
Displays your current directional bias based on VIX zone positioning with time-based confirmation.
CALLS (Green): VIX is below the Bullish Chop level — conditions favor call buying / bullish stock positioning
PUTS (Red): VIX is above the Bearish Chop level — conditions favor put buying / bearish stock positioning
CHOP (Yellow): VIX is between the two chop levels — no clear directional edge
Confirmation Logic: The bias must hold for a configurable period (default: 10 minutes) before showing "✓ CONFIRMED". A countdown timer shows time remaining until confirmation. High-velocity moves (spikes or crushes) trigger immediate confirmation. If VIX touches a chop boundary, the timer resets.
2. VIX Levels
Displays four user-configurable VIX thresholds that define the volatility regime zones:
Bearish (Red): Extreme fear — VIX at or above this level signals high volatility / bearish stock conditions
Resist (Orange): Upper chop boundary — resistance level for VIX
Support (Yellow): Lower chop boundary — support level for VIX
Bullish (Green): Low fear — VIX at or below this level signals low volatility / bullish stock conditions
The current zone is highlighted based on where VIX is trading relative to these levels.
3. Options Flow
Displays net options flow sentiment to gauge market positioning. Supports both simulated and real-time OPRA data.
Simulated Mode (Default):
Net Val: Shows simulated flow based on candle direction (bullish candle = positive, bearish = negative) multiplied by volume
Sentiment: BULLISH, BEARISH, or NEUTRAL based on flow direction
- Header displays "Options Flow (Sim)"
Real-Time OPRA Mode:
Vol: Shows actual call and put volumes summed across strikes near ATM (e.g., "C:12.5K P:8.2K")
Sentiment: BULLISH if call volume > put volume, BEARISH if puts dominate
- Header displays "Options Flow 📡"
- Net flow calculated as: `Total Call Volume - Total Put Volume`
⚠️ OPRA Data Requirement
Real-time mode requires an active OPRA data subscription in TradingView. Without this subscription, the options volume data will not populate. Enable "Use Real-Time OPRA Data" in settings and configure the required parameters (see Settings section below).
4. Velocity
Monitors the speed of VIX movement to detect rapid regime changes.
STABLE (Gray): Normal VIX movement
⚡ SPIKE (Red): VIX increased by more than the velocity threshold (default: 0.40 points) over the last 5 bars — rapid fear increase
⚡ CRUSH (Green): VIX decreased by more than the velocity threshold over the last 5 bars — rapid fear decrease
Calculation: `VIX - VIX ` (current VIX minus VIX from 5 bars ago)
5. Trap Detect
Identifies potential positioning traps by comparing VIX regime with options flow direction.
CLEAN (Gray): No divergence detected — flow aligns with VIX regime
⚠️ TRAP (Orange): High VIX + Bullish Flow — warns of potential bull trap; smart money may be selling into retail call buying during elevated fear
🛡️ ABSORB (Yellow): Low VIX + Bearish Flow — institutional absorption pattern; put buying during low VIX may indicate smart money hedging or accumulation
Horizontal Level Lines
Four horizontal lines are automatically drawn on the chart at your configured VIX levels:
1. Green line: Bullish level
2. Yellow line: Bullish Chop (Support) level
3. Orange line: Bearish Chop (Resist) level
4. Red line: Bearish level
Settings
Display Settings
Table Position: Choose where the dashboard appears on your chart
Text Size: Tiny, Small, or Normal
Table Background / Transparency: Customize dashboard appearance
10-Minute Rule
Confirmation Minutes: Time required in a zone before bias is confirmed (default: 10)
Velocity Threshold: Points per 5-bar period to trigger spike/crush detection (default: 0.40)
VIX Levels
Bullish (Green): Low volatility threshold (default: 14)
Bullish Chop (Yellow): Lower chop boundary (default: 16)
Bearish Chop (Orange): Upper chop boundary (default: 20)
Bearish (Red): High volatility threshold (default: 25)
Options Flow Data
Use Real-Time OPRA Data: Toggle between simulated and real-time options data (default: off)
Ticker Override: Manual ticker symbol. Leave blank to auto-detect from chart. Examples: SPY, QQQ, SPXW, NDX. Note: SPX auto-converts to SPXW for options symbols.
Center/Anchor Price: Required for OPRA mode. Enter the current underlying price (e.g., 590 for SPY, 5900 for SPX). This determines the ATM strike for data fetching.
Expiry Date (YYMMDD): Options expiration date in YYMMDD format (e.g., 260117 for Jan 17, 2026). Leave blank to use today's date (0DTE).
Strikes Above/Below ATM: Number of strikes to scan on each side of center price (1-10, default: 5). Higher values capture more flow data but use more API calls.
Strike Step Auto-Detection:
- SPX/SPXW, NDX: $5 strikes
- VIX: $0.50 strikes
- SPY, QQQ, and others: $1 strikes
What's New in This Release
1. Real-Time OPRA Options Flow: New toggle to switch between simulated and real-time options data. When enabled with an OPRA subscription, fetches actual call/put volumes across up to 11 strikes around ATM.
2. Configurable Options Parameters: New settings for ticker override, center price, expiry date, and strike range for precise options data targeting.
3. Horizontal Level Lines: VIX threshold levels are now drawn directly on the chart as colored horizontal lines for quick visual reference
4. Reordered Settings: VIX level inputs now flow logically from Bullish to Bearish
Best Practices
1. Use on VIX chart: Apply this indicator directly to a VIX chart (CBOE:VIX) for best results
2. Wait for confirmation: Don't act on bias until the 10-minute rule confirms
3. Respect velocity signals: Spikes and crushes can indicate regime changes before price confirms
4. Watch for traps: Divergence between flow and VIX regime often precedes reversals
5. Customize your levels: Adjust VIX thresholds based on current market conditions and your trading style
6. OPRA Setup: If using real-time options data, ensure you:
- Have an active OPRA subscription in TradingView
- Set the correct Center/Anchor Price for the underlying you're tracking
- Update the expiry date if trading non-0DTE options
- Match the ticker to your target (SPY for SPY options, leave blank on VIX chart for VIX options)
Disclaimer
This indicator is for educational and informational purposes only. It is not financial advice. Options flow data is simulated by default; real-time OPRA data requires a separate TradingView subscription. Always do your own research and manage risk appropriately.
