ATR Levels and Zones with Signals📌 ATR Levels and Zones with Signals – User Guide Description
🔹 Overview
The ATR Levels and Zones with Signals indicator is a volatility-based trading tool that helps traders identify:
✔ Key support & resistance levels based on ATR (Average True Range)
✔ Buy & Sell signals triggered when price enters key ATR zones
✔ Breakout confirmations to detect high-momentum moves
✔ Dynamic Stop-Loss & Take-Profit suggestions
Unlike traditional ATR bands, this indicator creates layered ATR zones based on multiple ATR multipliers, allowing traders to gauge volatility and risk-adjust their trading strategies.
🔹 How It Works
🔸 The script calculates a baseline SMA (Simple Moving Average) of the price.
🔸 ATR (Average True Range) is then used to create six dynamic price levels above & below the baseline.
🔸 These levels define different risk zones—higher levels indicate increased volatility and potential trend exhaustion.
📈 ATR Zones Explained
🔹 Lower ATR Levels (Buying Opportunities)
📉 Lower Level 1-2 → Mild Oversold Zone (Potential trend continuation)
📉 Lower Level 3-4 → High Volatility Buy Zone (Aggressive traders start scaling in)
📉 Lower Level 5-6 → Extreme Oversold Zone (High-Risk Reversal Area)
🔹 If price enters these lower zones, it may indicate a potential buying opportunity, especially if combined with trend reversal confirmation.
🔹 Upper ATR Levels (Selling / Take Profit Zones)
📈 Upper Level 1-2 → Mild Overbought Zone (Potential pullback area)
📈 Upper Level 3-4 → High Volatility Sell Zone (Aggressive traders start scaling out)
📈 Upper Level 5-6 → Extreme Overbought Zone (High-Risk for Reversal)
🔹 If price enters these upper zones, it may indicate a potential selling opportunity or trend exhaustion, especially if momentum slows.
🔹 Sensitivity Modes
🔹 Aggressive Mode (More Frequent Signals) → Triggers buy/sell signals at Lower/Upper Level 3 & 4
🔹 Conservative Mode (Stronger Confirmation) → Triggers buy/sell signals at Lower/Upper Level 5 & 6
📌 Choose the mode based on your trading style:
✔ Scalpers & short-term traders → Use Aggressive Mode
✔ Swing & trend traders → Use Conservative Mode for stronger confirmations
🚀 How to Use the Indicator
🔹 For Trend Trading:
✅ Buy when price enters the lower ATR zones (especially in uptrends).
✅ Sell when price enters the upper ATR zones (especially in downtrends).
🔹 For Breakout Trading:
✅ Breakout Buy: Price breaks above Upper ATR Level 3 → Momentum entry for trend continuation
✅ Breakout Sell: Price breaks below Lower ATR Level 3 → Momentum short opportunity
🔹 Stop-Loss & Take-Profit Suggestions
🚨 Stop-Loss: Suggested at Lower ATR Level 6 (for longs) or Upper ATR Level 6 (for shorts)
🎯 Take-Profit: Suggested at Upper ATR Level 3 (for longs) or Lower ATR Level 3 (for shorts)
🔹 Why This Indicator is Unique
✔ Multiple ATR layers for better risk-adjusted trading decisions
✔ Combines ATR-based zones with SMA trend confirmation
✔ Both aggressive & conservative trading modes available
✔ Includes automatic stop-loss & take-profit suggestions
✔ Breakout signals for momentum traders

Daily & Weekly False-Breakout DetectorDaily & Weekly Lines
We retrieve previous day/week’s High and Low.
lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on means we see the “final” daily/weekly bar values intraday, so it may repaint in real‐time.
False Breakout Logic
Intraday crosses of close above the previous high (PDH or PWH).
By the end of the daily/weekly bar, close is back below that high.
Similarly for false breakdowns below PDL or PWL.
Shape/Alert
Each time an intraday bar crosses up or down, if the final daily/weekly close reverts back inside the prior range, a label is drawn and an alert is triggered.
Because we are “peeking” at the daily/weekly close, these signals can appear or disappear in real‐time.
If you only want a confirmed signal after the period’s close, switch to lookahead_off, which will finalize them at the next day or next week.
2:30 [LuciTech]this is a technical analysis tool designed to highlight key price levels and patterns during a specific trading window, based on UK time (Europe/London). It overlays visual elements on the chart, including a 12 PM reference line, Buy Side Liquidity (BSL) and Sell Side Liquidity (SSL) levels, a highlighted 2:30 PM candle, and Engulfing Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). This indicator is intended for traders who focus on intraday price action and liquidity zones.
Features
The 12 PM Line displays a vertical line at 12:00 PM (UK time) to mark the start of the session. It’s customizable, allowing you to enable or disable it and adjust its color.
BSL/SSL Lines track the highest high (BSL) and lowest low (SSL) from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM (UK time). These lines extend horizontally until 3:30 PM, after which they remain static at their last recorded levels. You can customize them by enabling or disabling visibility, adjusting colors, choosing a line style (solid, dashed, or dotted), and setting the width.
The 2:30 PM Candle highlights the candle at 2:30 PM (UK time) with a distinct color. It’s customizable, with options to enable or disable it and change its color.
Engulfing FVG (Fair Value Gap) identifies bullish and bearish engulfing patterns with a gap from the prior candle’s range. It draws a shaded box over the FVG area, and you can customize it by enabling or disabling it and adjusting the box color.
How It Works
The indicator operates within a session starting at 12:00 PM (UK time). BSL/SSL levels update between 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM, with lines extending until 3:30 PM. After 3:30 PM, these lines freeze.
BSL/SSL lines show the highest price (BSL) and lowest price (SSL) reached during the 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM window. After 3:30 PM, they remain static, marking the final range boundaries.
The 2:30 PM candle emphasizes a key timestamp, often of interest to intraday traders.
Engulfing FVGs detect significant price gaps created by engulfing candles, which may indicate potential reversal or continuation zones.
Settings
12 PM Line Settings let you toggle visibility and set the line color.
BSL/SSL Line Settings allow you to toggle visibility, set BSL and SSL colors, choose a line style (Solid, Dashed, Dotted), and adjust width (1-4).
2:30 Candle Settings let you toggle visibility and set the candle color.
Engulfing FVG Settings allow you to toggle visibility and set the box color.
Interpretation
The 12 PM Line serves as a reference for the session start.
BSL/SSL Lines may act as potential support or resistance zones or highlight liquidity areas. After 3:30 PM, they remain static, showing the session’s final range.
The 2:30 PM Candle can be monitored for price action signals, such as reversals or breakouts.
Engulfing FVGs shaded areas may indicate imbalances in supply and demand, useful for identifying trade opportunities or stop-loss placement.
Notes
The timezone is set to Europe/London (UK time). Ensure your chart’s timezone aligns for accurate results.
This indicator is best used on intraday timeframes, such as 1-minute or 5-minute charts.
It provides visual aids for analysis and does not generate buy or sell signals on its own.
Breakout indicatorThis indicator helps traders identify potential breakout levels based on the highest high and lowest low of the last N candles, inspired by the classic Turtle Trading strategy. The period (N) is fully customizable, allowing you to adapt it to your trading style. For daily charts, a period between 50 and 100 is recommended.
The indicator dynamically plots horizontal lines representing the highest high and lowest low over the selected period. These lines are updated in real-time as price action evolves. A breakout is confirmed when the price closes above the high line (for a bullish breakout) or below the low line (for a bearish breakout).
Customize the appearance of the lines with options for thickness, color, and style (solid, dotted, or dashed) to suit your chart preferences. Perfect for traders looking to implement a simple yet effective breakout strategy!
Key Features:
Editable period (N) for high/low calculation.
Real-time updates of high/low levels.
Customizable line thickness, color, and style.
Usage:
Use on daily charts for swing trading or position trading.
Combine with other indicators or price action analysis for better confirmation.
BTIC Range MidpointsThis code analyzes and displays price ranges from 15:15-15:44 ET, the Basis Trade at Index Close session.
It draws horizontal lines showing:
The high of each session
The low of each session
The midpoint (50%) of each session
Connections between different session ranges (50% points between highs and lows)
Key features include:
Works only on 15-minute timeframes or lower
Stores up to 20 days of historical sessions (configurable)
Filters out ranges too far from current price
Color-codes different session ranges
Provides customizable line styles and colors
Labels each range with identifiers
The indicator essentially helps traders identify important price levels from BTIC sessions, which could serve as potential support/resistance areas for future price action.
Advanced Support & Resistance [Alpha Extract]🔶 AE - Advanced Support & Resistance
A sophisticated yet user-friendly tool designed to enhance your trading analysis by accurately identifying and plotting key support and resistance levels. Built on a unique pivot-based detection algorithm, this indicator provides clear visual cues in real time, helping traders stay ahead of potential market reversals and breakouts.
🔶 Pivot-Based Detection
Leverages pivot highs and lows along with a configurable threshold to filter out overlapping levels. This method helps the script stand out from simpler support/resistance indicators by focusing on the most significant price zones.
🔶 Multi-Timeframe Analysis
Pulls higher-timeframe data to ensure that critical levels remain visible and properly scaled, regardless of your current chart view. This prevents distortion and offers a more comprehensive perspective of market structure.
🔶 Break Signal Alerts
Generates breakout or breakdown signals whenever the price crosses above or below a detected level—labeled as RB (Resistance Break) or SB (Support Break)—so traders can quickly spot shifts in momentum or trend.
🔶 Customizable Parameters
Fine-tune sensitivity and appearance—adjust pivot bar settings, lookback periods, thresholds, and the maximum number of plotted levels to match your trading style and preferences.
// === USER INPUTS ===
pivotLeft = input.int(15, "Left Pivot Bars", minval=1)
pivotRight = input.int(15, "Right Pivot Bars", minval=1)
lookback = input.int(200, "Lookback Period", minval=50)
threshold = input.float(0.2, "Price Threshold %", minval=0.1, step=0.1)
maxLevels = input.int(10, "Maximum Levels", minval=1)
📊How It Works
🔶 Identifying Pivots
The script scans for pivot highs and lows within a user-defined range of bars (Left Pivot Bars and Right Pivot Bars). Each pivot is evaluated against a proximity threshold, ensuring that similar nearby levels are combined into a single zone rather than cluttering the chart.
// === SUPPORT & RESISTANCE DETECTION ===
ph = ta.pivothigh(high, pivotLeft, pivotRight)
pl = ta.pivotlow(low, pivotLeft, pivotRight)
🔶Automatic Updates & Removal
Levels that remain untested or break too frequently are automatically removed based on the configured lookback period, keeping your chart focused on the most relevant support/resistance zones.
🔶Fixed Scaling
Through the use of higher-timeframe anchoring, the indicator maintains consistent plot lines that won’t distort when you zoom in or out. This approach ensures you always see crucial levels clearly.
🔶Entry and Exit Points
Pinpoint potential entry and exit opportunities based on how price interacts with these zones.
🔶Risk Management
Place stop-loss and take-profit orders around these levels to manage trade risk more effectively.
🔶Trend Confirmation
Observe how price respects or breaks levels to confirm ongoing trends or detect early signs of reversal.
🔶Sensitivity Adjustment
Control pivot bar width (pivotLeft and pivotRight) and the proximity threshold to focus on major or minor price zones.

Pivot Points DWMWhat Is a Pivot Point?
A pivot point is a price level calculated from previous prices. It's used to indicate potential areas of support or resistance that offer attractive reward-to-risk setups for trades. The pivot point itself is simply the average of the intraday high and low and the closing price from the previous trading day. Trading above the pivot point on the subsequent day is thought to indicate ongoing bullish sentiment. Trading below the pivot point indicates bearish sentiment.

Pivot Candles with MFI Opacity (No Plot)How to Use the Pivot Candles with MFI Opacity Indicator for Trade Entries and Position Management
Overview
This indicator is designed not only to display key pivot levels (support and resistance) and Money Flow Index (MFI) signals on your chart, but also to help you structure systematic order entries and position management. By combining pivot levels with dynamic MFI-based candle opacity, the indicator provides a visual framework that technical analysts and quants can use to time buy and sell stop orders as well as to pyramid positions or take profits.
Trade Entry with Pivot Levels
Buy Stop Orders Above R1:
Concept: In many technical setups, resistance levels such as R1 are viewed as potential breakout points. A buy stop order placed just above R1 allows you to enter a long position only when price decisively breaks the prior resistance, confirming bullish momentum.
How It Works:
The indicator calculates pivot levels based on the previous higher‑timeframe bar, so R1 is “locked in” for the current period.
When the current candle closes above R1, it may signal a breakout.
Technical analysts often place a buy stop order slightly above R1 (for example, a few ticks or pips above the level) to confirm the move.
Practical Application:
Quants and systematic traders can program their models to monitor when the current close exceeds R1.
Once this condition is met, a buy stop order is triggered to capture the breakout move, ensuring that you only participate if the price decisively moves upward.
Sell Stop Orders Below S1:
Concept: Conversely, S1 acts as a support level. A sell stop order placed just below S1 is designed to capture a breakdown. This order is activated when price closes below S1, indicating that selling pressure may be overwhelming.
How It Works:
With pivot levels fixed from the previous higher‑timeframe bar, S1 provides a reference for potential support.
A close below S1 can be interpreted as a sign of a bearish reversal or a continuation of a downtrend.
Practical Application:
Quants set up their systems to watch for a break below S1.
A sell stop order is positioned just below S1 to ensure that if the support level fails, the system can quickly initiate a short position to capture the downward move.
Using MFI for Position Management
Pyramiding and Profit Taking:
Dynamic Candle Opacity:
The Money Flow Index (MFI) in this indicator not only provides overbought/oversold alerts but also controls the opacity of your candlesticks. When MFI readings are high, the candles become more opaque, indicating strong buying pressure. Conversely, lower MFI values lead to more transparent candles, suggesting reduced momentum.
Pyramiding Long Positions:
Strategy:
In a strong trend, technical analysts might choose to add to a winning position gradually—a process known as pyramiding.
Implementation:
As long as the price remains above R1 and MFI readings are supportive (high and consistent), you may consider adding to your long position incrementally.
Each new buy stop order can be set above R1 with slightly adjusted trigger levels to capture further breakout strength.
Risk Management:
Quants use the MFI reading as a risk filter; if MFI begins to drop or the candles become significantly more transparent, it may be a cue to stop pyramiding or even begin taking profits.
Taking Profit Using MFI and Pivot Reversals:
Profit Targeting:
When price reaches higher resistance levels (e.g., R2 or R3) or shows signs of overextension in conjunction with extreme MFI levels (for instance, a sudden drop in MFI after a strong rally), you can begin taking partial profits.
Systematic Exit:
A systematic strategy might include scaling out of the position as the price approaches the next resistance level or when the MFI indicates that buying momentum is waning.
Similarly, for short positions entered below S1, profit targets might be set near subsequent support levels, with exits triggered if MFI suggests a reversal.
Summary
Entry Orders:
Place buy stop orders just above R1 to capture breakouts.
Place sell stop orders just below S1 to capture breakdowns.
Position Management with MFI:
Use MFI-based candle opacity as a visual indicator of momentum.
Pyramid positions in the direction of the trend when MFI confirms strength.
Consider partial exits if MFI readings start to reverse or if the price nears the next pivot level.
By following this systematic approach, technical analysts and quants can use the indicator not only as a visual tool but as an integral part of an automated or semi-automated trading system that emphasizes disciplined entries, pyramiding, and profit-taking.
Half Candle RetraceThis custom indicator draws a horizontal line at the 50% retracement level of each candlestick on the chart. It calculates the midpoint between the high and low of each candle, which is often used by traders to identify potential entry, exit and take-profit levels. Once price action returns to an untouched level, the line will be removed, leaving only the levels where price action is still missing.
Key Features:
Timeframe: Works on all timeframes.
Line Color: Customize the line color to suit your charting preferences.
Line Width: Adjust the thickness of the retracement line for better visibility.
Line Style: Choose between solid, dotted, or dashed lines.
Up/Down Candle Selection: Option to only display retracement lines for up (bullish) candles, down (bearish) candles, or both.
Full Customization: Control the transparency (opacity) of the line for enhanced visual clarity.
Simple Setup: No complicated settings – simply choose your preferred color, line style, and visibility options.
This indicator is perfect for traders who prefer to use price action and retracement levels to identify potential trade opportunities.
How It Works:
The indicator automatically calculates the 50% level (midpoint) for each candlestick, drawing a line at this level. It will only draw lines for candles that match your chosen criteria (up or down candles), ensuring the chart remains clean and relevant to your trading strategy. Lines are automatically removed as soon as price crosses them.

It will only draw lines for candles that match your chosen criteria (up or down candles), ensuring the chart remains clean and relevant to your trading strategy. Lines are automatically removed as soon as price crosses them.
Static price-range projection by symbolThis indicator shows you a predefined range to the right of the last candle of your chart. This range is custom and can be changed for a handful of symbols that you can choose. This scale will help you determining if the market is providing a reasonable range before you enter a trade or if the market isn't actually moving as much as you might think. This is particularly useful if you are into scalping and have to consider commission or spread in your trades.
Since all symbols have different price ranges in which they move this indicator doesn't make sense to just have "a one size fits all" approach. That's why you can choose up to 6 symbols and set the range that you want to have shown for each when you pull it up on the chart. Using my default values that means for when the NQ (Nasdaq future) is on the chart you will see a range of 20 handles projected. When you change the the ES (S&P500 future) you will instead see 5 handles. While the number is different that is somewhat of an equal move in both symbols.
There also is an option to set a default price range for all other symbols that are not selected if it is needed. However the display of the scale on anything else than the 6 selected symbols can also be turned off.
There are options provided on how exactly you want to indicator to determine if the chart symbol matches one of the selected symbols.
You can enable it to make sure the exchange/broker is the exact same as selected.
It can check for only the symbol root to match the selection. Specifically for futures this means that while ES1! might be selected, anything ES (ES1!, ES2!, ESH2025, ESM2025, ESM2022, ...) will be a match to the selection)
On the painted scale it is possible to not just show this range extended into each direction once. Per default you will have 3 segments of it in each direction. This can be reduced to just 1 or increased.
If you chose a high number of segments or a large range make sure to use the "Scale price chart only" option on your chart scale to not have the symbols price candles squished together by the charts auto scaling.
And last but not least the indicator options provide some possibilities to change the appearance of the printed price range scale in case you disagree with my design.
Pre-Market High & LowIndicator: Pre-Market High & Low
This indicator tracks the high and low price levels of a stock during the pre-market session (4:00 AM - 9:30 AM EST), before the official market open. It dynamically updates during pre-market hours, identifying the highest and lowest prices reached. Once the pre-market session ends, these levels are saved and plotted on the chart as reference points for the regular market session.
Key Features:
Dynamic Updates: Continuously tracks the high and low during pre-market hours.
Visual Indicators: Plots horizontal lines representing the pre-market high (green) and low (red).
Post-Market Reference: Once pre-market ends, these levels remain visible for the regular market session as reference points for potential breakout or breakdown levels.
How to Use:
Use this indicator to identify potential breakout or breakdown levels that may happen at the market open.
The green line represents the highest price reached during pre-market, while the red line indicates the lowest price.
The indicator will stop updating once the pre-market session closes (9:30 AM EST) and will remain visible as reference levels throughout the trading day.
Ideal for:
Day traders looking for pre-market support and resistance levels.
Traders analyzing the initial market reaction based on pre-market price action.

High Volume Points [BigBeluga]High Volume Points is a unique volume-based indicator designed to highlight key liquidity zones where significant market activity occurs. By visualizing high-volume pivots with dynamically sized markers and optional support/resistance levels, traders can easily identify areas of interest for potential breakouts, liquidity grabs, and trend reversals.
🔵 Key Features:
High Volume Points Visualization:
The indicator detects pivot highs and lows with exceptionally high trading volume.
Each high-volume point is displayed as a concentric circle, with its size dynamically increasing based on the volume magnitude.
The exact volume at the pivot is shown within the circle.
Dynamic Levels from Volume Pivots:
Horizontal levels are drawn from detected high-volume pivots to act as support or resistance.
Traders can use these levels to anticipate potential liquidity zones and market reactions.
Liquidity Grabs Detection:
If price crosses a high-volume level and grabs liquidity, the level automatically changes to a dashed line.
This feature helps traders track areas where institutional activity may have occurred.
Volume-Based Filtering:
Users can filter volume points by a customizable threshold from 0 to 6, allowing them to focus only on the most significant high-volume pivots.
Lower thresholds capture more volume points, while higher thresholds highlight only the most extreme liquidity events.
🔵 Usage:
Identify strong support/resistance zones based on high-volume pivots.
Track liquidity grabs when price crosses a high-volume level and converts it into a dashed line.
Filter volume points based on significance to remove noise and focus on key areas.
Use volume circles to gauge the intensity of market interest at specific price points.
High Volume Points is an essential tool for traders looking to track institutional activity, analyze liquidity zones, and refine their entries based on volume-driven market structure.

Название: Smart Trend Tracker
Описание:
Индикатор Smart Trend Tracker предназначен для анализа рыночных циклов и выявления ключевых точек разворота тренда. Он автоматически размечает уровни поддержки и сопротивления, основываясь на динамике цены, что помогает трейдерам лучше ориентироваться в структуре рынка.
Применение:
Анализ трендов: Индикатор помогает определить моменты, когда тренд может быть близок к развороту, что полезно для принятия решений о входе или выходе из позиции.
Определение уровней поддержки и сопротивления: Автоматически размечает ключевые уровни, что упрощает анализ графика.
Сигналы разворота: Индикатор предоставляет визуальные сигналы о возможных точках разворота, что может быть использовано для стратегий, основанных на контртрендовой торговле.
Как работает:
Анализ последовательности свечей: Индикатор отслеживает количество последовательных свечей в одном направлении (вверх или вниз). Если цена продолжает движение N баров подряд в одном направлении, система фиксирует это как импульсную фазу.
Выявление истощения тренда: После серии направленных баров рынок может достичь точки перегрева. Если цена продолжает двигаться в том же направлении, но с ослаблением импульса, индикатор фиксирует возможное замедление тренда.
Отображение на графике: Индикатор отмечает точки потенциального разворота номерами или специальными маркерами. Также возможен вывод уровней поддержки и сопротивления, основанных на ключевых точках цикла.
Настройки:
