Raids ScannerAn extension from my Liquidity Raids indicator is this market-wide scanner where multiple (configured) pairs are scanned for raids on the configured timeframe and listed in the chart.
This is particularly useful if you wanna get an idea of where HTF liquidity has been taken over a basket of pairs of your choice. If you don't want to use the table and would just want to be alerted about the raid, then you can do that as well.
As of now, it can support up to 30 pairs, will add more if necessary.
NOTE: Computation may be limited in some plans which will result in timeouts (everything works well in premium though), you can deselect some pairs if/when it happens.

[Options Strategies] Selling Covered Calls and Puts (TSO) This trading indicator assists with traditional covered options trading strategies like Covered Calls, Covered Puts, and Cash Secured Puts. It also offers advanced features for trading options intelligently by utilizing options specific levels, such as BE (Break Even) and Strike (all visually shown on chart) in combination with S&R (Support and Resistance), Trend Lines, and other technical analysis tools such as MA (Moving Averages) and ATR Average True Range, all integrated within the indicator.
* Covered options approach over trading shares or options separately offers distinct advantages:
- Reduced Risk and Flexibility : Covered options strategy provides a more conservative approach by combining stock ownership with options trading. It reduces risk exposure compared to buying options outright or trading shares alone. Additionally, it offers flexibility in various market conditions.
- Profitability in Sideways Markets: Covered options allow for profitability in scenarios where the stock price is either moving optimally or remaining sideways. In contrast, just holding stocks might not yield significant gains in a sideways market, and buying options can result in losses due to time decay.
- Protection Against Price Movements: In covered options, if the stock price goes against the trade, the loss is mitigated by the premium received from selling the options. This provides a level of protection compared to other trading strategies where losses can accumulate more rapidly.

An example of a Smart Covered Calls trading SPY.
STRATEGY EXPLANATION:
* Trade Open Trigger (Bullish/Sideway)
>>> S&R (Support and Resistance) or Trend Line broken, bounced off or simply near (if price is near/slightly crossing S&R/Trend Line > a bounce often takes place)
>>> Confirmation by additional TA (Technical Analysis) tools.
>>> EXAMPLE: Broken Resistance combined with a Trend Line up-bounce, confirmed by bullish 200EMA.
* TP (Take-Profit)
>>> Contracts Expire at Expiration date: Premium received for selling contracts kept.
>>> Assignment: Premium received for selling contracts kept + stock assigned/sold at a higher price than it was purchased.
* BE/SL (Break Even Stop-Loss) |
>>> BE/SL hit: stock sold at a slight loss with options contracts bought out (BTC - Buy to Close) at a lower price than initially sold (since price went down and these are calls), so technically the loss is reduced by the partial Premium still kept from initially sold contracts at trade open.
>>> Increasing the BE/SL distance: for wider BE/SL > Bid Price needs to be increased:
- Set longer Expiration date.
- Set closer Strike price.
NOTE: With longer Expiration date and closer Strike, chances of assignment increase as well. It's best to find an optimal level, where BE/SL is behind a Support/Resistance level and/or an established trend line and/or Large Length Moving Average, yet not extremely far away.

An example of a Smart Covered Puts trading SPY.
STRATEGY EXPLANATION:
* Trade Open Trigger (Bearish/Sideway)
>>> S&R (Support and Resistance) or Trend Line broken, bounced off or simply near (if price is near/slightly crossing S&R/Trend Line > a bounce often takes place)
>>> Confirmation by additional TA (Technical Analysis) tools.
>>> EXAMPLE: Broken Resistance combined with a Trend Line down-bounce, confirmed by bearish 200EMA.
* TP (Take-Profit)
>>> Contracts Expire at Expiration date: Premium received for selling contracts kept.
>>> Assignment: Premium received for selling contracts kept + stock assigned/bought-to-cover at a lower price than it was shorted.
* BE/SL (Break Even Stop-Loss) |
>>> BE/SL hit: stock bought-to-cover at a slight loss with options contracts bought out (BTC - Buy to Close) at a lower price than initially sold (since price went up and these are puts), so technically the loss is reduced by the partial Premium still kept from initially sold contracts at trade open.
>>> Increasing the BE/SL distance: for wider BE/SL > Bid Price needs to be increased:
- Set longer Expiration date.
- Set closer Strike price.
NOTE: With longer Expiration date and closer Strike, chances of assignment increase as well. It's best to find an optimal level, where BE/SL is behind a Support/Resistance level and/or an established trend line and/or Large Length Moving Average, yet not extremely far away.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
An example of a Smart Secured Cash Puts trading SPY.
STRATEGY EXPLANATION:
* Trade Open Trigger (Bullish/Sideway)
>>> Bullish steady trend.
>>> Confirmation by additional TA (Technical Analysis) tools.
>>> EXAMPLE: Slowly rising price action above 200EMA.
* TP (Take-Profit)
>>> Early BTC: BTC (Buy to Close) before Expiration date if options premium/contract price already reduced by at least 50-90% (the reduced price is the profit, if premium lost 90% - only 10% will need to be paid to buy options out to close the trade) and if the stock price is nearing Resistance, Trend Line or big length moving average (like 200EMA) as a bounce may happen or even a potential reverse of the trend. If there is no trend reversal or a small correction bounce occurs, with further trend continuation > another Cash Secured Puts trade can be opened with new Expiration date and Strike.
>>> Contracts Expire at Expiration date: Premium received for selling contracts kept, considering the Strike was never hit.
>>> Assignment with stock closing below Strike and above/near BE (Break Even): Premium received for selling contracts kept. NOTE: It is best to get rid of the stock ASAP to then open a new Cash Secured Puts trade with lower Strike and a new Expiration date.
* BE/SL (Break Even Stop-Loss) |
>>> BE/SL hit: contracts bought out (BTC - Buy to Close) at a higher price than initially sold (since price went down and these are puts), the amount/difference in current contract price is the loss (as premium received + contract price increase is the total cost, which will have to be paid to buy the countracts out).
>>> Increasing the BE/SL distance: for wider BE/SL > Bid Price needs to be increased:
- Set longer Expiration date.
- Set closer Strike price.
NOTE: With longer Expiration date and closer Strike, chances of assignment increase as well. It's best to find an optimal level, where BE/SL is behind a Support/Resistance level and/or an established trend line and/or Large Length Moving Average, yet not extremely far away.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
An example of Options Wheel strategy trading TQQQ. See how Strike and BE (Break Even) hits are displayed every time they occur.
STRATEGY EXPLANATION:
* Trade Open Trigger (Bullish/Sideway)
>>> Options Wheel strategy combines Cash Secured Puts with Covered Calls, so a steady bullish trend is preferred with lower volatility.
>>> It's best to start with Cash Secured Puts until assignment hits (stocks purchased), then switch to Covered Calls until assignment hits (stocks sold) and so on.
* TP (Take-Profit)
>>> Contracts Expire at Expiration date: Premium received for selling contracts kept.
>>> Assignment: Premium received for selling contracts kept. Stock is assigned (purchased if Cash Secured Puts were sold | sold if Covered Calls were sold ).
* BE/SL (Break Even Stop-Loss)
>>> Assignment is the stop-loss for this strategy, which ends current trade and starts next one. It is not a direct loss, but could result a long unrealized losses if after stock purchase assignment it goes down for a while or even a complete loss if low-cap company is used and it goes out of business.
>>> BE/SL distance can still be increased/kept optimal: for wider BE/SL > Bid Price needs to be increased:
- Set longer Expiration date.
- Set closer Strike price.
NOTE: With longer Expiration date and closer Strike, chances of assignment increase as well. It's best to find an optimal level, where BE/SL is behind a Support/Resistance level and/or an established Trend Line and/or Large Length Moving Average, yet not extremely far away.

SFX Signals & Overlays [YinYangAlgorithms]SFX Signals & Overlays aims to help traders Identify Buy & Sell locations, Reversals, Volatility Zones, Support & Resistance and Overbought & Oversold Zones. All of these may work in harmony with each other by helping to identify when to enter and exit a trade; as well as helping to determine the risk / reward the trade may ensue.
SFX Signals & Overlays’s Buy & Sell signals are momentum based, meaning the Initial ‘Buy’ & ‘Sell’ signal may not be exactly where you want to get in/out. What may occur is the initial signal appears, a few more continuation signals appear afterwards (always in a chain); and once the momentum has ended a ‘Reversal’ signal appears. The reversal is there to help signify that the ‘opportune’ time to buy/sell may have passed and the price may now correct in the opposite direction. This Indicator aims to Buy Low and Sell High; and therefore the Buy signal momentum may occur as the price is either about to fall, currently falling or has started to consolidate. When the Buy signal momentum has ended, this means the momentum is at an impasse, but is favoring Buy momentum and a reversal (correction) may occur.
Buying & Selling at reversal signals may be profitable, however it may be less risky to DCA into your long / short positions during the Buy/Sell momentum signals instead. Let's get into the Tutorial so you can better understand how our SFX Signals & Overlays indicator works.
Tutorial:
Our example above showcases how our SFX Signals & Overlays Indicator looks on the default settings ‘Medium’ for each of our Algorithm Settings:
Trend Sensitivity
Signal Sensitivity
Zone Sensitivity
All of our Algorithm Settings feature 3 different speeds:
Fast
Medium
Slow
These speeds may be applied to each Algorithm Setting individually and affect how quickly they adapt to the current market's momentum. This allows you to tailor this Indicator to fit your trading style by adjusting it to meet your needs accordingly. If you are someone who likes to swing trade on the 1-5 minute timeframe, you may find better confluence with all settings on ‘Fast’. Medium term holders and traders may find better results with all settings on ‘Medium’. Likewise, long term investors may find best results with all settings on ‘Slow’. However, this shouldn’t stop you from finding your own best result by adjusting them individually to meet your own unique trading style.
SFX Signals & Overlays helps you identify shifts in momentum by displaying Momentum Signals. Momentum Signals are shown by either a Green or Red Triangle. Momentum Signals can continue for quite some time until the momentum has ended. We rank the first Momentum Signal from 1/5 to 5/5 for their strength and may help determine the chances of the momentum shift occurring. Once the Momentum Signals have ended we display a Reversal Signal. This Reversal Signal helps signify that the Momentum has ended. When the Momentum ends it means that a reversal may have started. This reversal may mean the price will continue in the direction the signal mentioned; or it may mean the price will consolidate. If the price consolidates then the signal is void as when the consolidation ends the price could go in either direction. If you notice consolidation occurring after a Reversal Signal; wait for more confirmations as it is now too risky.
Our Indicator displays different evaluations for each INITIAL Buy and Sell signal. These evaluations rank the current start of the signal from 1-5; 1 being the lowest and least reliable, 5 being the highest and most reliable. These rankings aren’t indefinite and are simply an evaluation at the time of the initial signal. We may potentially provide evaluations at the reversal later on if requested enough. When a Buy or Sell signal occurs this defines where momentum is occurring in this direction. This momentum is indicated by momentum signals shown through red / green triangles. These triangles indicate that this momentum is present. When these momentum signals end is when the Reversal Signal appears indicating that since this momentum has ended, there may be a decent chance of a reversal occurring. There also adherently may be the potential of consolidation occurring; but generally it means there is either a reversal, or consolidation + then a reversal or a continuation; however it may be apparent that the momentum has ended.
ES:
NQ:
BTC:
If you refer to the 3 examples above, we show how the ES, NQ and BTC look within a 5 minute scalping example. Essentially you’d make your decision on the Buy / Sell signal, the momentum signals, the Reversal Signals, the Trend Colors as well as other oscillators and Due Diligence.
Remember, there’s no such thing as a perfect entry / exit, the more you understand about trading and do your own Due Diligence the better. These Buy and Sell as well as Reversal signals attempt to locate and rank momentum shifts to help you identify where the momentum may be ending and reversing in the opposite direction.
Our zones defined by the Outer (red) and Inner (green) are representations of not only Support and Resistance locations, but likewise Overbought and Oversold locations. These zones help in multiple ways. The hard lines that define each zone's start / end are very useful locations of support / resistance which may indicate where the price will bounce off of. Likewise, when the price is within these zones it represents the price being Overbought or Oversold. Then the price is for instance within the Red Resistance Zone, what generally may happen is the price will correct quickly to get back to the ‘Black Empty Zone’ between the Red and Green zones; OR it may consolidate sideways until it has entered the ‘Black Empty Zone’. This is how the price may redeem itself back to being valued correctly. These zones help you identify and understand, in concatenation with our signals when and how much the price may move.
Our Settings are minimalistic so you don’t need to worry and get overwhelmed about changing values and trying to fiddle to find which values works the best for what. Our Algorithms will take care of all of that for you. Simply select the speeds for your Trend, Signals and Zones and you’re good to start trading! You can likewise customize what information is visible to you and the colors to better customize your experience.
Fast:
Medium:
Slow:
The 3 examples above display what the same portion of the chart looks like when Trend, Signal and Zone Sensitivity is changed from Fast, Medium and Slow.
As you can see, they all look quite different in the results they produce. By default all settings are set to Medium, however they can all be individually changed to suit your trading style and needs.
Our Indicator offers many different alert options which may help you stay informed with how the market is moving and any momentum changes that may occur.
Settings:
1. Algorithm Settings
Trend Sensitivity (Fast, Medium, Slow): Trend Sensitivity refers to how quickly the Trend Bar Colors change. Fast: will change colors very quickly if it senses momentum is changing. Medium: will change almost as quickly as Fast, however, rather than swapping from Bullish to Bearish momentum right away it has an intermediate 'Neutral - Slightly Bullish (Yellow)' and 'Neutral - Slightly Bearish (Orange)'. This way you can better visualize when the momentum is dying in the trend and starting back up by having these trend 'Neutral/Consolidation' areas. Slow: will attempt to only change Trend Bar Colors when the momentum has surely shifted. This may result in a bit of lagging behind.
Signal Sensitivity (Fast, Medium, Slow): Signal Sensitivity refers to how quickly the Buy & Sell Momentum Signals & Reversal Signals appear. These signals are meant to appear when it thinks the price may reverse, but the speeds refer to how much of a reversal they think may happen. Fast: will attempt to locate any and all momentum swings. Medium: will attempt to only locate momentum swings which may drive the price up considerably. Slow: will attempt to locate only the most extreme momentum swings. This may result in some potentially good ones missed however; but the ones it finds may have a higher probability of occuring.
Zone Sensitivity (Fast, Medium, Slow): Zone Sensitivity refers to how quickly the Zones expand based on price movement. These zones may be useful for not only seeing Support & Resistance; but also identifying when it is Overbought & Oversold; as well as visualizing volatility between the Black (Empty area) and the zones. The lines that separate each zone are the Support and Resistance locations; the area within the zones are simply the spacing between these Support and Resistance locations. However, the further the price is to the outer zones does represent Overbought and Oversold. Fast: will expand very quickly. This causes the price to be within the Black (Empty area) more often. This may be useful for finding extremities in price movement which may have a better chance of correcting. Medium: moves fast but not anywhere close to as fast as 'Fast'. Medium will hold its values in an attempt to be as accurate as possible for identifying Support and Resistance locations. Slow: will expand very slowly. This may be useful for identifying Support & Resistance as well as Volatility targets on higher time frames since these zones move much slower.
2. Display Settings:
Show Trend Bar Colors: Trend Bar Color are a way of seeing how the Trend is holding up on a bar by bar basis. This may be useful for seeing momentum starting, ending or simply dying down before any signals actually appear.
Signal Text Display (Both, Buy & Sell, Reversals, None: Signals are a way of seeing potential changes in momentum and when they have actually occurred. Our signals also rank from 1/5 to 5/5 how strong of a chance this momentum change may occur (only at the time of the signal, not at the time of the reversal). These may be useful as potential Entry and Exit locations; as well as when you see the reversal, you know that this momentum change has either begun or a consolidation may be occurring. If a consolidation occurs, the signal is no longer valid as the price can now go either way and it is best to wait for more signals or other technical analysis to determine momentum and movement.
Zone Display (All, Outer + Middle, Inner + Middle, Outer, Middle, Inner, None): Zones are composed of 3 areas above and below. These areas attempt to project Support & Resistance locations as well as display when the Price is Overbought and Oversold. You can specify which zones you wish to view, however all are important.
3. Color Settings:
Buy Color: This is the color of all Buy Signals and Zones.
Sell Color: This is the color of all Sell Signals and Zones.
Buy Reversal Color: This is the color of all Buy Signal Reversals.
Sell Reversal Color: This is the color of all Sell Signal Reversals.

Tops & Bottoms - Day of Week Report█ OVERVIEW
The indicator tracks when the weekly tops and bottoms occur and reports the statistics by the days of the week.
█ CONCEPTS
Not all the days of the week are equal, and the market dynamic can follow through or shift over the trading week. Tops and bottoms are vital when entering a trade, as they will decide if you are catching the train or being straight offside. They are equally crucial when exiting a position, as they will determine if you are closing at the optimal price or seeing your unrealized profits vanish.
This indicator is before all for educational purposes. It aims to make the knowledge available to all traders, facilitate understanding of the various markets, and ultimately get to know your trading pairs by heart (and saving a lot of your time backtesting!).
USDJPY tops and bottoms percentages on any given week.
USDJPY tops and bottoms percentages on up weeks versus down weeks.
█ FEATURES
Custom interval
By default, the indicator uses the weekly interval defined by the symbol (e.g., Monday to Sunday). This option allows you to specify your custom interval.
Weekly interval type filter
Analyze the weekly interval on any weeks, up weeks, or down weeks.
Configurable time range filter
Select the period to report from.
█ NOTES
Trading session
The indicator analyzes the days of the week from the daily chart. The daily trading sessions are defined by the symbol (e.g., 17:00 - 17:00 on EURUSD).
Extended/electronic trading session
The indicator can include the extended hours when activated on the chart, using the 24-hour or 1440-minute timeframe.
█ HOW TO USE
Plot the indicator and navigate on the 1-day or 24-hour timeframe.
Institutions vs. Crypto Whales Spot BuyingBased on analysis from @tedtalksmacro, I have put together a similar tool that helps to visualise whether institutions (Coinbase and Deribit) or native crypto whales (Binance and Bitfinex) are leading the BTC spot buying.
This is plotted as the normalised relative difference (-1 and 1) between the average of Coinbase and Deribit spot price versus Binance and Bitfinex. If positive (i.e. green bar), institutions are trading at a premium; if negative (i.e. red bar), crypto whales are trading at a premium.
For example, if crypto whales are trading at a premium and price is increasing, then they are leading the buying relative to institutions. However, if whales are trading at a premium and price is decreasing, then it is likely institutions are selling off at a more rapid rate relative to the crypto whales buying pressure. This applies to the alternate scenario where institutions are trading at a premium to crypto whales.
In recent times, native crypto whales (largely Binance) drove the push from 40 to 48k, but then also marked the local top with a major sell off at this price. Institutions then took over buying at the most recent lows, driven largely by GBTC outflows slowing down and Blackrock daily inflows exceeding Grayscale outflows for the first time late last week.
Price SextantThe provided Pine Script™ code is for a technical analysis indicator called "Price Sextant." This indicator helps visualize the price position relative to its linear regression and standard deviation levels. Here's a brief description:
Price Sextant Indicator:
Purpose:
The Price Sextant indicator aims to show the current price's deviation from the linear regression line by dividing the price chart into different zones or sextants.
Components:
Linear Regression: The script calculates a linear regression line based on the closing prices over a specified length (default is 50 bars).
Standard Deviation Sections: It then computes standard deviation levels from the linear regression, creating upper and lower sections around the regression line.
Scoring: Each section is assigned a numerical score, and labels with corresponding scores are displayed on the chart.
Arrow and Midline: An arrow is drawn to indicate the current price's position in relation to the regression line and standard deviation bands. It changes color based in what section it is:
orange section shows a ranging price, below orange section -1 arrow turns red and show down trend and if arrow above +1 section it turns green and show strong up trend of price.
A midline is plotted to mark the position of the linear regression line.
Sextant Description:
In navigation, a sextant is an instrument used to measure the angle between two visible objects.
In the context of this indicator, the term "Sextant" is likely used metaphorically to describe the division of the price chart into six sections or zones based on the linear regression and standard deviation bands.
This indicator can help traders identify potential overbought or oversold conditions, as well as assess the strength and direction of the trend.
Please note that the effectiveness of the indicator depends on various factors, and it's advisable to use it in conjunction with other analysis tools for a comprehensive trading strategy.
Bitcoin Price Based On ElectricityThis script Calculates the price of Bitcoin solely on the hashrate and the cost of electricity.
The calculation is quite conservative considering its based on the average cost of electricity globally and we are assuming that everyone is running the latest mining hardware, which is the most efficient and cost effective.
Under both of these assumptions the calculation for bitcoins price is almost identical to the price we are seeing now.
If we change the reward rate to 3.125 (Aprils reward amount) then the price of one bitcoin per cost of work will be around 100k.
I am sure I am missing some important numbers in this calculation, fees, start up costs etc. However, it is very interesting to see that the price of Bitcoin can be calculated almost perfectly based on the hashrate and cost of electricity.

Candlesticks Patterns [TradingFinder] Pin Bar Hammer Shooting🔵 Introduction
Truly, the title "TradingView" doesn't do justice to this excellent website, and that's why I've written about its crucial aspect. In this indicator, the identification of all candlesticks known as "Pin bars" is explored.
These candlesticks include the following:
- Hammer : A Pin bar formed at the end of a bearish trend, with its body being either bearish or bullish.
- Shooting Star : Formed at the end of a bullish trend, with its body being either bearish or bullish.
- Hanging Man : Formed during an upward trend, characterized by a candle with a lower shadow.
- Inverted Hammer : Formed during a downward trend, characterized by a candle with an upper shadow.
🟣 Important : For ease of use, we refer to these four candlestick patterns as Pin Bars and categorize them into the main friends "Bullish" and "Bearish."
🟣 Important : In all sources, Hanging Man and Inverted Hammer are referred to as "Reversal candles." However, in reality, whenever they appear after breaking a significant area (Break Out), we expect these candles to signal a continuation of the trend and confirmation in the direction of the trend.
🟣 Important : One of the best signs of market manipulation and entry by market giants is the "Ice Berg." So, it provides one of the best trading opportunities.
🔵 Reason for Creation
Many traders, especially volume traders, use Pin bars as confirmation and enter the market after their occurrence. In this indicator, all four patterns are identified and displayed in a colored candle format, using "triangle" and "circle."
When they are evident on the chart, directly or by drawing a horizontal line, they give us good alerts for reversal or continuation areas.
🔵 Information Table
1. Red circle: Pin bars formed in a downtrend.
2. Blue circle: Bullish Pin bars formed in an uptrend.
3. Black triangle: Bearish Pin bar candle in an uptrend.
4. Blue triangle: Bullish Pin bar candle in a downtrend.
🔵 Settings
Trend Detection Period: A special feature that considers smaller or larger fluctuations. If individual price waves need to be considered, use lower numbers; if the overall trend direction is desired, use larger numbers (e.g., 5-7 or higher). This precisely sets the Zigzag or Pivot format, not displayed but considered in the indicator calculation.
Trend Effect : By changing the Trend Effect status to "Off," all Pin bars, whether bullish or bearish, are displayed regardless of the current market trend. If the status remains "On," only Pin bars in the direction of the main market trend are shown.
🟣 Important : Black triangles "Number 3" and blue triangles "Number 4" displayed in the information table section, as explained in the "Information Table" section.
Show Bullish Pin Bar : When set to "Yes," displays bullish Pin bars; when set to "No," does not display them.
Show Bearish Pin Bar : When set to "Yes," allows the display of bearish Pin bars; when set to "No," does not display them.
Bullish Pin Bar Setting : Using the "Ratio Lower Shadow to Body" and "Ratio Lower Shadow to Higher Shadow" settings, you can customize your bullish Pin bar candles. Larger numbers impose stricter conditions for identifying bullish Pin bars.
Bearish Pin Bar Setting : Using the "Ratio Higher Shadow to Body" and "Ratio Higher Shadow to Lower Shadow" settings, you can customize your bearish Pin bar candles. Larger numbers impose stricter conditions for identifying bearish Pin bars.
Show Info Table : Allows the display or non-display of the information table (located at the bottom of the page and on the right side).
🔵 How to Use
At the end of a downtrend, look for "Hammer" candles, easily identified one by one.
To identify the "Shooting Star" candle pattern at the end of an uptrend; expect a price reversal in the downtrend.
For trades in the downward direction, wait for the formation of an "Inverted Hammer" Pin bar.
And finally, in an uptrend, where a "Hanging Man" candle can form.
🔵 Features
For better visualization, triangles and circles are used above the candles, but they can be easily removed. All Pin bars are displayed in color with the following meanings:
- Black-bodied candle: Inverted Hammer
- Turquoise blue candle: Hammer
- Pink candle: Hanging Man
- Red candle: Shooting Star
🟣 Important : The capability to detect the powerful two-candle pattern "Tweezer Top" at the end of an uptrend emerges by forming two "Shooting Star" candles side by side.
Similarly, the two-candle pattern "Tweezer Bottom" is created at the end of a downtrend with the formation of two "Hammer" candles side by side. To identify the "Tweezer" pattern, make sure the settings in the "Trend Effect" section are set to "Off."
🟣 Auxiliary Indicators
During the start of trading sessions such as Asia, London, and New York, where the highest liquidity exists, alongside this indicator, you can use the Trading Sessions indicator.
Sessions
The combination of Order Blocks "-OB" and "+OB" with candles is one of the best trading methods. The indicator that identifies order blocks, along with this indicator, can yield remarkable results in the success of Pin bar candles.

Session Levels Predictor [LuxAlgo]The "Session Levels Predictor" indicator predicts the maximum/minimum levels that will be made within a user-specified session. Hit rate percentages are displayed to measure how often a specific level has been hit.
🔶 USAGE
The indicator can be used to estimate the expected maximum/minimum levels within a specified session, these are directly displayed at the start of a session. This operation can be useful to set take profits/stop losses levels when we expect to exit within a specific session.
Users can display up to 3 upper and lower extremities on their chart (by default only 2 upper and lower extremities are displayed), with their distance from the session opening price being determined by the user-set percentile setting, values closer to 100 will return levels farther away from the session opening price.
Predicting maximum/minimum levels effectively allows obtaining support/resistance levels for the user-defined session, with a breakout probability indicating how easy it can be for the price to reach the estimated levels. These levels can be extended outside the specified session, allowing to test their relevancy as support/resistance levels to prices outside the specified sessions.
🔶 DETAILS
To predict maximum/minimum levels made within a session we keep a record of the distance between a session's maximum/minimum value and the session opening price (opening price when the session starts).
By using the percentile_nearest_rank() on our recorded distances we draw levels from the session opening price. If a level is hit between 2 sessions, this is saved for further calculations.
Lastly, a % hit rate of these levels is shown at the sessions open, indicating the probability that these levels could be hit before the next session.
🔹 array.percentile_nearest_rank()
Returns the value for which the specified percentage of array values (percentile) is less than or equal to it, using the nearest-rank method.
For example, taking the 75th percentile from our recorded distances between the maximum session level and session opening price will return a new distance where 75% of the recorded distances are lower.
The same goes for the green session's open - low levels
🔶 SETTINGS
Session: User-defined session interval, uses the symbol timezone.
Percentile (1, 2, 3): K-th percentile used to estimate session max/min levels, higher values will return more distant levels.
Max Population: Maximum amount of recorded distance data for the calculation of percentiles.
🔹 Style
Extend Middle Line: Toggle to extend the blue Middle Line to the next session - Default disabled

Portfolio Management [TrendX_]Portfolio Management is a powerful tool that helps you create and manage your own portfolio of stocks, based on your risk and return preferences.
*** Note: You should select the appropriate index for each stock as the benchmark to compare your portfolio’s performance.
*** Note: You should apply the indicator to the same chart as the benchmark, so that it can capture the historical trends of all the 10 stocks in your portfolio.
USAGE
Analyze your portfolio’s return factor, which shows the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of each stock and the portfolio as a whole, as well as the weight of each stock in the portfolio.
The Weighting approach contains 2 options, Equal and Growth-based method:
Customize your portfolio by selecting up to 10 stocks from a wide range of markets and sectors:
Compare your portfolio’s performance with a benchmark of your choice, which is the S&P500 by default setting.
Evaluate your portfolio’s risk factor, which includes the capital asset pricing model (CAPM), the portfolio beta, and the Sharpe ratio of both the portfolio and the benchmark:
- CAPM is a model that calculates the expected return of the portfolio based on its risk and the risk-free rate of return.
- Portfolio beta is a measure of how sensitive the portfolio is to the movements of the benchmark. A beta of 1 means the portfolio moves in sync with the benchmark, a beta of less than 1 means the portfolio is less volatile than the benchmark, and a beta of more than 1 means the portfolio is more volatile than the benchmark.
- Sharpe ratio measures how much excess return the portfolio generates per unit of risk. It is calculated by subtracting the risk-free rate of return from the portfolio’s return, and dividing by the portfolio’s standard deviation. A higher Sharpe ratio means the portfolio has a better risk-adjusted return. A Sharpe ratio of more than 1 is considered good, a Sharpe ratio of more than 2 is considered very good, and a Sharpe ratio of more than 3 is considered excellent .
Adjust your portfolio’s rebalancing strategy, which determines when and how to change the weight of each stock in the portfolio to optimize your return and risk objectives. The tool also suggests a default hedging-stock asset, which is the US dollar interpreted through the dollar index (DXY):
- The dollar index is a measure of the value of the US dollar relative to a basket of other major currencies. It is often used as a proxy for the global economic sentiment and the demand for safe-haven assets. A rising dollar index means the US dollar is strengthening, which may indicate a bearish outlook for the stock market. A falling dollar index means the US dollar is weakening, which may indicate a bullish outlook for the stock market.
- The rebalancing strategy suggest increasing the weight of the hedging-stock asset when the dollar index is under positive supertrend condition, and decreasing the weight of the hedging-stock asset when the dollar index is in the downward supertrend. This way, you can hedge against the adverse effects of the stock market fluctuations on your portfolio, simply you can just cash out at the suggested hedging weight.
CONCLUSION
Investors can gain a deeper insight into their portfolio’s performance, risk, and potential, and make informed decisions to achieve their financial goals with confidence and ease.
DISCLAIMER
The results achieved in the past are not all reliable sources of what will happen in the future. There are many factors and uncertainties that can affect the outcome of any endeavor, and no one can guarantee or predict with certainty what will occur.
Therefore, you should always exercise caution and judgment when making decisions based on past performance.
Table to filter trades per dayThis script contains a block of code that allows users to filter the total number of trades, loss trades, win trades and win rate per day in a table. This makes it easier to compare which days were profitable and which were not.
Be aware that this script can only be used in strategy scripts. To use the script, open it and copy every line from "START" to "STOP". Then, paste these lines at the very bottom of the strategy script that you want to attach it to.
The user has the ability to adjust the position of the table and customize the size of the text displayed.
If the user sets "Check when the trade:" to "Opened", the script will monitor when the trade opens and add it to the table once it has been closed. If "Check when the trade:" is set to "Closed", the script will track when the trade is closed and add it to the table once it has been closed.
It is recommended to run the script on the "Exchange" setting for more accurate results, even though a "Set the timezone" option is available. This will prevent discrepancies caused by daylight saving time changes.
Please note that the code will only work properly if you choose a daily timeframe or lower.
Session Sweeps [LuxAlgo]The Session Sweeps indicator combines ICT-based features for a complete trading methodology involving market sessions, market structure, and fair value gaps to find optimal entry conditions for trading price action.
Traders frequently tend to place stop/limit orders at the high and low points of major trading sessions such as Asian (Tokyo), European (London), and North American (New York), resulting in the establishment of liquidity pools at those particular levels. The Session Sweeps indicator is crafted to recognize and underscore occurrences of session sweeps or liquidity sweeps during these major trading sessions.
🔶 USAGE
Default settings utilize major forex trading sessions, yet users can select their preferred opening and closing times, rename the sessions, or adjust the colors. It's important to note that the specified times for each session align with the respective local timezones: Asian (Tokyo) UTC+9, European (London) UTC, and North American (New York) UTC-5.
If the price briefly crosses either the highest or lowest point of a market session. These movements, aiming at triggering stop losses, suggest potential shifts in the market direction. Detecting such movements is the fundamental purpose and core functionality of the script.
🔹Market Structure Shifts
A Market Structure Shift refers to a change in market direction, either from an uptrend to a downtrend or vice versa. A part of a common entry model when using session sweeps is waiting for the formation of a CHoCH after a session sweep.
🔹Fair Value Gaps
A Fair Value Gap (FVG) holds particular appeal for price action traders, emerging when there are inefficiencies or imbalances in the market, often a result of uneven buying and selling activity. The underlying concept of FVGs is that the market tends to revisit these inefficiencies before resuming its trajectory in alignment with the initial impulsive move.
After the formation of a CHoCH traders can enter a position when the price enters the area of a Fair Value Gap (FVG).
🔹Setup Examples
This entry setup is commonly used by ICT traders and is shared for informational & educational purposes only.
Long Positions (5-Minute Timeframe):
Wait for the previous session's low to be swept.
Look for a Bullish Choch.
Find a Bullish FVG formed by or before the Choch.
Entry Point: At the FVG.
Take Profit (TP): At the session high or aim for a 1:2 Risk-Reward Ratio.
Stop Loss (SL): At the session low or nearest Swing Low.
Take partial profits at intermediate swings, but don’t shift SL prematurely.
Short Positions (5-Minute Timeframe):
Wait for the previous session's high to be swept.
Look for a Bearish Choch.
Find a FVG formed by or before the Choch.
Entry Point: At the FVG.
Take Profit (TP): At the previous session's low or aim for a 1:2 RR.
Stop Loss (SL): At the session high or nearest Swing High.
Take partial profits at intermediate swings, but don’t shift SL prematurely.

Index Kill Zones - SMC IndicatorsWhat are Index Kill Zones?
Index Kill Zones are specific Time Windows of opportunity during the Session for Indices that have the potential for the highest volatility and where looking for trading opportunities is ideal.
The Index Kill Zone Indicator is specifically designed for the SP500, NQ100, and DJ30, Markets. What differentiates this script from other Kill Zones scripts is that this script is based on NY Midnight as the basis for the start of the day.
This is not the usual below-average Index Kill Zone indicator because this indicator does not only show the 3 main Kill Zones or Sessions, but it also offers extra Kill Zones within each session that are called "AM Session", "PM Session", the "Launch Hour", the "Silver Bullet for the London, AM, and PM Sessions", and the "Last Hour" for the London, AM, and PM sessions.
Another key differentiator of this indicator's functionality is that it shows the highs and lows of each Kill zone allowing SMC traders to monitor Time-Based Liquidity above the highs and lows of each trading session.
By splitting each trading day into AM and PM Sessions, we can identify 3 types of potential daily profiles. These daily profiles could be used as conceptual templates as to what to expect from the price during a certain day. The 6 templates are the following:
1. Two Sessions Up: Where the price would go in one direction higher during both the AM and PM Sessions.
2. Two Sessions Down: Where the price would go in one direction lower during both the AM and PM Sessions.
3. AM Rally, then PM Decline: The price would go higher during the AM session and then lower during the PM Session.
4. AM Decline, then PM Rally: The price would go lower during the AM session and then higher during the PM Session.
5. Consolidation, AM Rally, then PM Decline: Where the price would consolidate most of the AM Session, then go higher into the last hour, and then reverse and go lower during the PM Session.
5. Consolidation, AM Decline, then PM Rally: Where the price would consolidate most of the AM Session, then go lower into the last hour, and then reverse and go higher during the PM Session.
Within each AM and PM Session, there is a "Silver Bullet" that acts as a time window of opportunity to get into a continuation trade in the direction of the prevailing trend.
Also, within each AM and PM Session, there is a "Last Hour" that acts as a time window of opportunity to get into a trade in the direction of the potential trend if the price has not moved yet, or as a reversal trade opportunity if the price has already ran previous short-term highs or lows.
Finally, we have also incorporated a Notification function to remind the trader of the start of the trading Kill Zones to not miss out on potential trade opportunities.
Key Functionalities
Universal Time Reference
Every day starts at 00:00 NY Midnight, irrespective of the trader's local time, Instead of the Standard GMT Midnight. This allows all Index Kill Zones to be in line with the New York start of the day at Midnight, as taught by ICT.
Weekend Highlighter
This feature highlights time from Sunday Market Open at 5 PM NY Time to 00:00 NY Midnight.
It's useful for identifying the non-trading or the low volatility periods when trading should be avoided.
Features Breakdown
Lookback Period
Defaulted to 60 trading days, aligning with “IPDA Data Ranges”, which is ideal for backtesting.
It's adjustable for trading, and it's recommended to keep it at 20 trading days to focus on the most recent data only.
24-hour Daily Intervals
The 24-hour intervals are not the same as the usual daily candle. Instead, the start of each trading day is anchored to the 00:00 NY Midnight.
Highlights "Days of the Week" labels, "Weekend" Trading Time, and the daily high-low ranges based on the start of trading day mark being at 00:00 NY Midnight.
London Kill Zones (Green)
The Full London Session starts from 02:00 NY Time to 05:00 NY Time.
London Silver Bullet starts from 03:00 NY Time to 04:00 NY Time.

Highlights the time when there is the highest volatility during the AM Session.
PM Session Kill Zone (Orange)
The full PM Session Starts from 13:00 NY time to 16:00 NY Time.
PM Session Silver Bullet starts from 14:00 NY Time to 15:00 NY Time.
PM Session Last Hour starts from 15:00 NY Time to 16:00 NY Time.
Highlight the high and low of the PM Session to Identify Time-Based Liquidity above and below the PM Session Range.
Highlights the time when there is the highest volatility during the PM Session.
Bonus Features
Daily & Weekly Open Price Levels
The Open Price levels draw a horizontal line from the start of the trading day at 00:00 NY midnight, and it extends it towards the end of the trading day.
This is useful for understanding where the price is relative to the daily candle.
When Bullish, the trader should look for setups at or below the daily or weekly open price.
When Bearish, the trader should look for setups at or above the daily or weekly open price.
Whether to choose the Daily or Weekly open price depends on the trader's trading style. If the trader is day trading or scaling, then it's more appropriate to choose the Daily Open Price.
However, Day Traders can also use the Weekly candle to align with the Weekly Candle's expected range direction.
On the other hand, if the trader is a Swing Trader and wants to capitalise on the weekly candle's trend, then it's more appropriate to choose the Weekly Open Price.
However, Swing Traders can also use the Daily Open Price when looking to take a trade to time better entries with a high risk-to-reward ratio.
Daily Open Price Level (in Green) and Weekly Open Price Level (in White)
Kill Zones Open Price Level
This is useful if the trader is an intra-session trader and wants to treat the sessions as the daily candle. In this case, the trader can use the Kill Zones Open Price levels based on the same logic of the Daily Open Price, where the trade would look for buy opportunities below the Session's open price and look for sell opportunities above the Session's Open Price Level.
Notifications
The trader can also receive alerts as a reminder at the start of the desired session to ensure that he or she does not miss the start of the trading session.
ICT Unicorn Model [LuxAlgo]The ICT Unicorn Model indicator highlights the presence of "unicorn" patterns on the user's chart which is derived from the lectures of "The Inner Circle Trader" (ICT) .
Detected patterns are followed by targets with a distance controlled by the user.
🔶 USAGE
At its core, the ICT Unicorn Model relies on two popular concepts, Fair Value Gaps and Breaker Blocks. This combination highlights a future area of support/resistance.
A Bullish Unicorn Pattern consists out of:
A Lower Low (LL), followed by a Higher High (HH)
A Fair Value Gap (FVG), overlapping the established Breaker Block
A successful re-test of the FVG which confirms the pattern.
A Bearish Unicorn Pattern consists of:
A Higher High (HH), followed by a Lower Low (LL)
A Fair Value Gap (FVG), overlapping the established Breaker Block
A successful re-test of the FVG which confirms the pattern
The pattern detection depends on detected swings, which can be controlled by the Swing setting. Using higher values of this setting will return longer-term breaker blocks.
🔹 Using Risk/Reward Targets
A confirmed Unicorn pattern will show a blue ( Target ) / grey ( Stop Loss) "Risk/Reward" areas (RR).
When the Stop Loss or Target is hit, a white line is shown on the concerned side.
The Risk/Reward ratio can be adjusted in the "Targets" settings.
🔹 Trailing Stop
As seen in the previous snapshots, besides the RR areas, this indicator also includes an optional Trailing Stop .
This can be helpful to lower your risk, by exiting earlier than if you would wait until the Stop Loss is hit.
This example shows a successful bullish and bearish Unicorn Pattern . In this scenario, the Trailing Stop could be used for partial Take Profit.
The goal of this publication is to show confirmed Unicorn Patterns . To increase the chance of success, it is important to evaluate the bigger picture & use this in confluence with your price action analysis. For example, look for potential areas of liquidity, consider this pattern only during certain market sessions, avoid trading during heavy impact news, &/or incorporate other aspects of technical analysis rather than just following this pattern blindly.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Combine
When disabled, all potential Unicorn Patterns will delete previous unconfirmed patterns:
Enabling Combine ensures the last Unicorn Patterns in the opposite direction will remain.
While the latter bullish pattern became invalid, another one formed.
The combination of the previous bearish pattern, and looking at the big picture, the bullish pattern did not have much chance to be successful.
While disabling 'combine' helps minimize clutter, enabling this feature can give a pattern more chance to hit the SL/Target level.
🔹 Mitigated FVG
Users can determine if a pattern becomes invalid due to a mitigated FVG, causing the pattern to be deleted.
🔹 New pattern detected
When a new pattern is detected, the previous unconfirmed pattern in the same direction (bullish - bullish or bearish - bearish) will be deleted. This will always be the case, whether "Combine' is enabled or disabled.
When the previous pattern was confirmed but no SL or Target level was hit, this pattern will stop updating.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Unicorn
Swings: This sets the length of swings, used for the underlying ZigZag and Unicorn Patterns detection.
Bull: Enable/disable Bullish patterns, and set the color of FVG box and Trailing Stop .
Bear: Enable/disable Bearish patterns, and set the color of FVG box and Trailing Stop .
Combine: When enabled, patterns in opposite directions (bullish/bearish) can exist at the same time. disabling this feature tends to give less clutter. See the "Usage" section for more information.
🔹 Targets
Risk/Reward: Sets the Risk/Reward ratio.
Trailing Stop: Set the length of small swings, which is used for the Trailing Stop .
MTF Workbench [WinWorld]WHAT IS THIS?
This is MTF Workbench — an indicator, which is based on World Class SMC, but has one main feature — multi-timeframe analysis.
WHY MAKING MTF FEATURE AS A SEPARATE INDICATOR?
We weren't able to implement this feature in the World Class SMC itself due to huge size and complexity of the script, so we have re-written the entire script and optimized it to implement MTF and decided to make a separate script for MTF features in order to not make World Class SMC any heavier, because otherwise the script would probably not even load up on the chart.
WHAT ARE THE FEATURES?
MTF Workbench has two features for now: dashboard and structure mapping. But there will be more soon!
DASHBOARD
Dashboard gathers data from 4 different timeframes and visualize the results in the nice little table on the chart. It is useful to have a dashboard because it visualizes important data in a simple way.
The settings of the dashboard are:
- Position. this settings has 2 subsettings: vertical position (bottom, middle, top) and horizontal position (left, center, right). These subsettings allow you to place dashboard on any side of the chart;
- Text size. This settings defines size of the text in the dashboard, simple as that;
- Timeframe #1, #2, ..., #4. These four settings allow you to choose 4 different timeframes for the table to gather data from.
How to read the dashboard:
- The colour of the specific data cell is the current trend of selected timeframe;
- IDM ⧖ — price has not reached IDM yet;
- IDM ✓ — price grabbed IDM.
This is it for dashboard, now for structure mapping.
STRUCTURE MAPPING
By structure we mean IDM, BoS and ChoCh (if you don't what this means, refer to World Class SMC description to learn the terms, we won't explain it here). In our main indicator structure was only drawn for the timeframe you were currently using, but now you can choose whatever timeframe you want to get structure from!
Why do this matter? Well, this feature alone allows to perform so called intern-structure analysis, because now you will able to compare current timeframe's structure to a higher timeframe's structure and get an a sufficient amount of edge about what Smart Money are doing.
* And yes, this feature only works for analyzing higher timeframes!
The structure itself is plotted the same way as it is in our main indicator, but we also add timeframe to the specific structure event (event is when price reaches IDM, BoS or ChoCh lines) so you could differentiate internal-structure events from any other events.
Live structure is also available in this indicator.
WHY USE THIS INDICATOR?
Even though there a lot of structure mapping indicators with MTF features, they don't have what MTF Workbench has — the correct core structure-mapping algorithm. We took our core structure-mapping algorithm and put it into MTF Workbench to finally bring MTF analysis to life to work state-of-the-art structure-mapping algorithm, which gives any user a huge edge in the market by a very simple reason — this algorithm actually works. Our algorithm proved itself to be efficient and it helps map structure without human intervention, which is a huge leap in smart money trading. To this day we were not able to find an algorithm which would match the quality of our algo! Which why we think making an MTF version of our algorithm is a good thing to do, because now users can finally work with current timeframe and see information about structure from other timeframes using only ONE chart. If you are smart-money trader, you understand that this is a HUGE thing.
For PineScript moderators
We know the rule not publish slightly modifie version of some indicator as another indicator, but this is not a slightly different version. MTF Workbench was completely re-writtten from scratch and optimized so it could fint PineSript's code restrictions such as 500 max local scopes, which World Class SMC with MTF Workbench's features exceeded way too far.
Also, by referencing our World Class SMC indicator we don't promote it in any way. The reference is only made with purposes of
1) Informational reference to help users learn specific terms.
2) Informational reference to some of the World Class SMC features to give users a clue about what exactly MTF Workbench does.
We hope that you will find a great use from MTF Workbench as we did and it will help your level up your edge!
Sincerely, WinWorld Team.

Forex Kill Zones - SMC IndicatorsWhat are Kill Zones?
Kill Zones are specific Time Windows of opportunity during the Session that have the potential for the highest volatility and where looking for trading opportunities is ideal.
The Forex Kill Zone Indicator is specifically designed for the Forex Market. What differentiates this script from other Kill Zones scripts is that this script is based on NY Midnight as the basis for the start of the day.
This is not the usual below-average Kill Zone indicator because this indicator does not only show the 3 main Kill Zones or Sessions, but it also offers extra Kill Zones that are called "Asian Range (AR)", "Central Bank Dealing Range (CBDR)", and "FLOUT".
Another key differentiator of this indicator's functionality is that it shows the highs and lows of each Kill zone allowing SMC traders to monitor Time-Based Liquidity above the highs and lows of each trading session.
Another added benefit of this indicator is the Standard Deviations features for the AR, CBDR, and FLOUT that we added. The Standard Deviations act as key levels where there is a high probability of price reacting when in confluence with 1H or higher key levels (PD Arrays). The Standard Deviations are not pivot levels but are ranges above and below the Kill Zones that rely on TIME and PRICE in their calculations.
Finally, we have also incorporated a Notification function to remind the trader of the start of the trading Kill Zones to not miss out on potential trade opportunities.
Key Functionalities
1) Universal Time Reference:
Every day starts at 00:00 NY Midnight, irrespective of the trader's local time, Instead of the Standard GMT Midnight. This allows all Kill Zones to be in line with the New York start of the day at Midnight, as thought by ICT.
Weekend Highlighter
This feature highlights time from Sunday Market Open at 5 PM NY Time to 00:00 NY Midnight.
It's useful for identifying the non-trading or the low volatility periods when trading should be avoided.
Features Breakdown
Lookback Period
Defaulted to 60 trading days, aligning with “IPDA Data Ranges”, which is ideal for backtesting.
Adjustable for trading, and it's recommended to keep it at 20 trading days to focus on most recent data only.
24-hour Daily Intervals
The 24-hour intervals are not the same as the usual daily candle. Instead, the start of each trading day is anchored to the 00:00 NY Midnight.
Highlights "Days of the Week" labels, "Weekend" Trading Time, and the daily high-low ranges based on the start of trading day mark being at 00:00 NY Midnight.
London Kill Zone (Green)
Starts from 01:00 NY Time to 05:00 NY Time.
London closes at 12:00 NY Time.
Highlight the high and low of the London Kill Zone to Identify Time-Based Liquidity above and below the London Kill Zone Range.
Marks the London Close Session to mark the end of London End of the trading day, where volatility drops.
Highlights the time when there is the highest volatility during the London Session Kill Zone.
New York Kill Zone (Blue)
Starts from 07:00 NY time to 10:00 NY Time.
Marks The CME Open at 08:30 (the opening of the Bond Market).
Highlight the high and low of the New York Kill Zone to Identify Time-Based Liquidity above and below the NY Kill Zone Range.
Highlights the time when there is the highest volatility during the New York Session.
The Central Bank Dealing Range or "CBDR" (Orange)
Starts From 14:00 NY Time to 20:00 NY Time.
Highlight the high and low of the CBDR Kill Zone to Identify Time-Based Liquidity above and below the CBDR Kill Zone Range.
Also, there is an added ability to add the CBDR Standard Deviations above and below the CBDR.
Can also extend the CBDR Standard Deviations key levels until the end of the next day's London Kill Zone.
What are the CBDR Standard Deviations?
The Standard Deviations are extensions of the CBDR above and below the CBDR original range. It takes the high and low of the range and adds the range above and below the original range by x times.
The CCBDR Standard Deviations are NOT pivot levels. They are used as points of reference where we could expect the price to react when in confluence with higher timeframe reference points.
The idea behind them is that if the price is Bearish, the price could rally to +1 CBDR Standard Deviation below dropping lower. As shown in the image below on Thursday, the two vertical lines before the start of Thursday mark the CBDR Kill Zone, then the price rallied to +1 CBDR SDv and then dropped.
Asian Range "AR" Kill Zone
Starts from 20:00 NY Time to 00:00 NY Time.
Highlight the high and low of the AR Kill Zone to Identify Time-Based Liquidity above and below the AR Kill Zone Range.
Also, there is an added ability to add the AR Standard Deviations above and below the AR.
This KillZone should be primarily used when CBDR exceeds 40 pips.
Similar to the CBDR, the AR Standard Deviations also can be used as points of reference where we could expect the price to react when in confluence with higher timeframe reference points.
The AR Standard Deviations can also be extended until the end of the next day's London Kill Zone.
FLOUT Range
It Combines AR and CBDR, spanning from 14:00 NY Time to 00:00 NY Time.
The FLOUT should only be used when both AR and CBDR have small ranges of less than 10 pips combined.
Highlight the high and low of the FLOUT Kill Zone to Identify Time-Based Liquidity above and below the FLOUT Kill Zone Range.
The FLOUT Standard Deviations also can be used as points of reference where we could expect the price to react when in confluence with higher timeframe reference points.
The Flout Standard Deviations can be extended until the end of the next day London Kill Zone.
Bonus Features
Daily & Weekly Open Price Levels
The Open Price levels draw a horizontal line from the start of the trading day at 00:00 NY midnight, and it extends it towards the end of the trading day.
This is useful for understanding where the price is relative to the daily candle.
When Bullish, the trader should look for setups at or below the daily or weekly open price.
When Bearish, the trader should look for setups at or above the daily or weekly open price.
Whether to choose the Daily or Weekly open price depends on the trader's trading style. If the trader is day trading or scaling, then it's more appropriate to choose the Daily Open Price.
However, Day Traders can also use the Weekly candle to align with the Weekly Candle's expected range direction.
On the other hand, if the trader is a Swing Trader and wants to capitalise on the weekly candle's trend, then it's more appropriate to choose the Weekly Open Price.
However, Swing Traders can also use the Daily Open Price when looking to take a trade to time better entries with a high risk-to-reward ratio.
Notifications
The trader can also receive alerts as a reminder at the start of the desired session to not miss out on the start of the trading session.

IU Support and Resistance How this script works :
1. This script is an indicator script which calculates the support and resistance based on pivot high and pivot low and plot them as zone onto the chart.
2. The first user input is minimum number of touches which indicates how many time pivot high or pivot low should be tested in order to be a valid support or resistance level.
3.The second user input "Set Buffer" check if the user wants to use a custom buffer or not if it's unchanged then the default is 50% of the 1000 period ATR value .
4. If "Set Buffer" is checked meaning if it's set to true then only the third user input will be execute which is the "buffer" which indicates how much price range user wants his zone to have.
5. After the user input part this script create two arrays to store the pivot high and pivot low values every time he have a new value.
6. This script also creates two arrays to store the bar index of the bar where the new pivot high or pivot low is detected those bar index will be later use while creating the support and resistance zones.
7. Then the script creates four more arrays to store the final support and resistance values and their respective bar index which will be use for creating the support and resistance zones.
8. After this the script check that we are at the last bar of our chart if we are then we sort the support and resistance indices by descending order and store them into an new variable after that we sort the support and resistance arrays by descending order, then we loop through the arrays elements and we check if the previous element comes under the zone of the current element if so we increase the "minimum touch" variable by 1, once we have 5 or more count in our variable and we no longer have a valid zone then we store the element value and the sorted index of the element into our final arrays.
9. Finally the script will loop through the final support and resistance arrays and it will create a box for each support and resistance with respect to extending it on both directions.
10.The green zones are the support and the red zones are the resistance.
How user can benifits from this script:
1. User can automatically identify support and resistance zones and he can plan his trade as per that.
2. User can test how different markets reacts with support and resistance zones.
3. User can plan breakout trade on the break of the support or resistance level.
4. User can adjust he stop loss and take profit as per the support and resistance zones.
Sessions [TradingFinder] New York, London, Tokyo & Sydney ForexTiming is one of the influential factors in a trader's position. This indicator categorizes transactions into three sessions (Asia, Europe, and America). Five significant trading cities (New York, London, Frankfurt, Tokyo, and Sydney) are selectable.
I recommend using the tool on a 5-minute time frame, but it is usable on all time frames.
Settings:
• Trading sessions: Display or hide each trading session as needed.
• Color: Change the color of each box.
• Session time intervals: The default is based on the main working hours for each time interval and can be adjusted.
• Information table: Delete or display additional information table.
Information Table:
• Trading sessions
• Opening and closing times of each trading session
How to Use:
Initiating trading sessions involves entering with increased liquidity, and the market usually experiences significant movements. Many trading strategies are based on "time" and "session openings." This tool empowers traders to focus intensely on each time interval.
These trading sessions are crucial for all Forex, stock, and index traders:
The total price ceiling and floor in the Asia session (Tokyo and Sydney) are crucial for traders in the European session.
The European session starts with Frankfurt, and an hour later, London begins, collectively forming the European session.
The dashboard provides additional information, displaying hours based on UTC.
Customization options are considered in all sections so that everyone can apply their own settings.
Important: Default times are the most accurate for each region, and in most indicators, this time is not correctly selected. Therefore, the level of influence and time intervals are specified at the beginning of each session. If you are using another indicator, match its default time to the announced time and share the results with me in the comments.
