Delay Estimatorthis script can be used to adjust one of the free realtime tickers (such as SPX500, NAS100) to "look" like one of the delayed futures tickers (such as ES1!, NQ1!). This basically allows us to get an estimate of the realtime futures ticker price.
it uses bollinger bands to adjust the volatility and offset of the realtime ticker
it also provides a decimator to reduce the price into ticks, since futures often use 4 ticks per point

Herrick Payoff IndexThe Herrick Payoff Index is designed to show the amount of money flowing into or out of a futures contract. The Index uses open interest during its calculations, therefore, the security being analyzed must contain open interest.
The Herrick Payoff Index was developed by John Herrick.When the Herrick Payoff Index is above zero, it shows that money is flowing into the futures contract (which is bullish). When the Index is below zero, it shows that money is flowing out of the futures contract (which is bearish).
The interpretation of the Herrick Payoff Index involves looking for divergences between the Index and prices.
DAS Levels and BoxesTrading levels mainly used to trade MNQ Futures plus 1-Hour & 4-Hour price range boxes. I define the day trading range from 6:30AM PST to 1PM PST. I define the overnight range from midnight PST to 6:30AM PST. I define the futures market entire range as starting at 3PM PST going overnight and ending at 2PM PST the following day.
The 1-hour box is for scalping and catching smaller moves and are more risky. Enter long or short trade upon 1-hour candle close above & below the mid-line, respectively.
The 4-hour box is for catching larger moves and require more patience. Enter long or short trade upon 4-hour candle close above & below the mid-line, respectively. This is my first indicator so be patient. These are the lines and boxes that I use to trade so I thought it would save time to have them all present in one indicator. This is set up with Pacific Standard Time as default. I may need to adjust later for day light savings time.

Volume Profile: HVN, LVN & DeltaWhat this script does
This advanced TradingView indicator delivers a comprehensive rolling Volume Profile analysis over a user-defined lookback period, combining key order flow elements: High Volume Nodes (HVN), Low Volume Nodes (LVN), volume delta, volume-filtered pivot levels, Fibonacci retracements/extensions on the period's range, a real-time dashboard, and customizable alerts.
It renders a smooth, curved volume profile on the right side of the chart, highlighting areas of high acceptance (HVN), rejection (LVN), buying/selling pressure (via delta coloring), and structural levels – all in one clean overlay. Perfect for understanding market auction dynamics, identifying fair value zones, and spotting potential reversals or breakouts.How it works
The indicator calculates the Volume Profile by dividing the high-low price range of the last period bars (default 150) into configurable bins (default resolution 70). Volume is accumulated per bin based on closing prices, while a delta approximation (close > open = buying volume) tracks aggressive pressure. PoC & Value Area: The Point of Control (PoC) is the price level with the highest volume. The Value Area (VA) expands symmetrically around it to encompass a user-set percentage (default 70%) of total volume, defining VAH and VAL.
HVN & LVN: HVNs are high-volume bins (above threshold % of PoC), sorted by strength and filtered for meaningful delta imbalance. LVNs mark low-volume "gaps" as potential acceleration zones.
Delta & Coloring: Net delta colors the entire profile, PoC, and HVNs (teal for positive/buying dominance, maroon/blue for negative).
Pivots & Fibs: Standard pivots are detected but only displayed if they fall in high-volume bins (volume filter). Fibonacci levels are drawn on the full period range.
Dashboard & Alerts: A compact table shows live metrics (e.g., distance to PoC/VA, node counts, net delta %, EMA50 trend). Alerts fire on PoC crosses or VA breakouts/re-entries.
Heavy computations run only on the last bar, with strict graphical cleanup for smooth performance even on lower timeframes.
How to use it
Add the indicator to your chart via TradingView (search for "Volume Profile: HVN, LVN & Delta " by mentalExpert19609). Key settings: Volume Profile & Structure: Set Rolling Period to 100–200 for intraday (e.g., crypto 15m) or 300+ for higher timeframes; increase Resolution for precision on wide ranges; adjust Visual Width for profile scale. Keep PoC and VA enabled for core functionality.
Node Analysis: Lower HVN Threshold for more nodes; use Max HVN Boxes (10–30) to cap drawing for performance; set Min Delta Significance % to 20–40% to hide balanced nodes and focus on true imbalances.
Pivots & Levels: Default pivot length 10; raise Pivot Vol Filter % to 30–50% for stronger confirmation.
Dashboard: Choose position and text size for readability.
Alerts: Enable for notifications on key crosses (e.g., VAH breakout for potential longs).
Practical examples: BTC/USDT (15m, Binance): Period 200 captures daily auctions. Watch strong HVNs (teal) as support in uptrends; LVNs for breakout setups. If price re-enters VA from above VAH with negative delta, consider shorts toward PoC.
AAPL or ES Futures (1H/Daily): Period 150 for weekly context. Use volume-filtered pivots as confluence; dashboard's EMA50 trend filters direction.
EURUSD (Forex, 1H): Combine with dashboard metrics – enter longs on VAL breakout if net delta positive and price above EMA50.
What makes it original and useful
While many Volume Profile scripts exist on TradingView, most are either basic (no delta/nodes), laggy on real-time charts, or overload the screen with unfiltered elements. This version stands out through advanced optimizations and unique features: Sorted & filtered HVNs: Unlike standard scripts that display nodes by price order, HVNs here are bubble-sorted by volume strength (strongest first) and filtered by delta significance – prioritizing real absorption/imbalance zones over noisy ones.
Delta significance filter: A rare feature that hides high-volume but balanced nodes, focusing analysis on directional conviction.
Volume-validated pivots: Prevents drawing irrelevant swings in low-volume areas, improving structural reliability.
All-in-one integration: Seamless combo of profile, nodes, delta, pivots, Fibs, dashboard, and alerts – reducing clutter from multiple indicators.
Published to make professional-grade order flow tools (inspired by ICT/SMC and auction theory) accessible to retail traders. It excels on crypto, stocks, futures, and forex, especially for mean-reversion around VA/PoC or breakout trading with volume confirmation. Credits: Original code with significant personal enhancements for performance and usability.
QUARTERLY THEORY TRUE OPENSQUARTERLY THEORY TRUE OPENS
Multi-cycle True Open indicator based on quarterly cycle theory, with precise cycle-begin termination logic.
OVERVIEW
TRUE OPENS (Cycle Q2) plots the True Open (Q2 open) across multiple market cycles and extends each level only until the next cycle begins.
This mirrors how price actually respects quarterly structure: a True Open is relevant only within its active cycle.
The indicator uses New York (exchange) time, is DST-aware, and relies on a 1-minute event engine to ensure accuracy and visibility across all intraday and higher timeframes — even when candle opens do not align with exact timestamps (e.g., 4H, Daily, Weekly charts).
WHAT IS A TRUE OPEN?
In quarterly cycle theory, each cycle is divided into four quarters (Q1–Q4).
The Q2 opening price — the True Open — often acts as:
A gravitational price level
A premium/discount reference
A mean price the market revisits during the cycle
This indicator tracks those Q2 opens across Micro, Session, Daily, Weekly, Monthly, and Yearly cycles, while respecting each cycle’s actual beginning and end.
CYCLES & DEFINITIONS
All times are New York (Exchange Time).

TIMEFRAME VISIBILITY (AUTO MODE)
To keep charts clean and relevant, cycles auto-hide above sensible timeframes:
Micro: ≤ 1-minute
Session: ≤ 5-minute
Daily: ≤ 15-minute
Weekly: ≤ 1-hour
Monthly: ≤ 4-hour
Yearly: ≤ Weekly
A Custom mode allows full manual control.
TECHNICAL FEATURES

No future leakage
No bar-index assumptions
DST-aware New York time handling
1-minute event engine ensures:
Monthly levels appear on 4H charts
Yearly levels appear correctly when history exists
Performance-safe (no loops, no heavy arrays)
HOW TO USE
Use Micro & Session True Opens for precision intraday entries
Use Daily & Weekly True Opens for bias and mean-reversion context
Look for confluence when multiple True Opens align near the same price
Respect cycle boundaries — once a cycle begins, its prior True Open loses relevance
IMPORTANT NOTES
Yearly True Opens require chart history that includes April
Continuous contracts (e.g., ES1!, NQ1!) are recommended for futures
Works on Forex, Futures, Indices, Crypto, and Stocks

EMA Slope - RSI Indicator# EMA Slope - RSI Indicator
## Script Description (for Publishing Page)
**EMA Slope - RSI Indicator** combines normalized EMA slope momentum analysis with RSI divergence detection and momentum comparison to create a visual signal indicator with five distinct signal types. The indicator's originality lies in its unique "No Trade Zone" (NTZ) concept applied to slope momentum, combined with centered RSI format for direct comparison, and multiple complementary signal methods that work together to identify both trend-following and reversal opportunities across different market conditions.
**Core Concept - EMA Slope Normalization:** Calculates rate of change of long MA (default 160 EMA) by comparing current value to N bars ago (default 3 bars). Raw slope difference normalized to -100 to +100 scale using 500-bar rolling range: normalizedSlope = 100 * (longMA - longMA ) / (highest(maDF, 500) - lowest(maDF, 500)). Creates consistent momentum oscillator comparable across price levels and timeframes.
**No Trade Zone (NTZ) Logic:** NTZ (±8 default) creates neutral zone where slope momentum is too weak for reliable signals. Indicator only triggers NTZ Cross signals when slope crosses out of threshold zone, ensuring signals occur only when momentum is sufficiently strong.
**Centered RSI Format (RSI-50):** Traditional RSI (0-100 range) difficult to compare with slope. This indicator uses centered RSI = (RSI - 50), creating -50 to +50 range zero-centered on same scale as normalized slope. Enables direct visual and mathematical comparison between RSI and slope momentum, enabling Slope-RSI exhaustion detection and RSI-Slope Oscillator signals.
**Component Integration:** Five signal types target different market conditions. NTZ Cross and Acceleration target trend-following when momentum strong. RSI Divergence and Slope-RSI Divergence target reversals when price/momentum diverge. RSI-Slope Oscillator targets momentum alignment when RSI and slope converge. Multi-method approach provides signals across trending, reversing, and ranging markets.
### 📊 Technical Calculations
**Slope Normalization:** maDF = longMA - longMA , normalized: maDf = 100 * maDF / (highest(maDF, 500) - lowest(maDF, 500)), ranges -100 to +100.
**Acceleration Detection:** maAcce = abs(maDf - maDf ) * smoothBars * 2, normalized: maAcc = 50 * maAcce / highest(maAcce, 200). Values above threshold (35 display, 40 signals) indicate sudden momentum shifts. Visualized as colored circles: cyan (bullish), red (bearish).
**RSI Calculation:** rsi = sma(rsi(source, length), smoothing), centered: cRsi = rsi - 50 (ranges -50 to +50). Smoothed using SMA (default 3 bars) to reduce noise.
**RSI Divergence:** Uses pivot high/low detection on smoothed RSI. Pivot lookback = 16 - sensitivityInput (inverse: sensitivity 6 = 10-bar lookback, sensitivity 10 = 6-bar lookback). Compares price pivots (actual high/low including wicks) against RSI pivots. Bullish: priceLowerLow AND rsiHigherLow. Bearish: priceHigherHigh AND rsiLowerHigh. Stores multiple previous pivots (default 8 max) for comparison.
**Slope-RSI Exhaustion:** Compares normalized slope against centered RSI on same scale. Bearish: slope accelerating up (delta > 0, slope > NTZ) BUT RSI declining (cRsi < cRsi AND cRsi < cRsi ). Bullish: slope accelerating down (delta < 0, slope < -NTZ) BUT RSI rising. Gap threshold (default 10.0 points) filters noise. Visualized with dashed lines and gap labels.
**RSI-Slope Oscillator:** State machine tracks cross events (rsiSlopeCrossUp = cRsi > maDf AND cRsi <= maDf ), waits for confirmation: both RSI and slope heading same direction. Long: RSI crosses above slope AND both heading UP. Short: RSI crosses below slope AND both heading DOWN. Useful for range-bound markets.
**Stretch Filter:** maPercentDiff = (longMA - shortMA) / shortMA * 100. Blocks long signals if longMA > shortMA by threshold (overextended up). Blocks short signals if shortMA > longMA by threshold (overextended down). Default 0.45% prevents signals when MAs too far apart.
**Delta Calculation:** Measures change in normalized slope between bars. Timeframe mode: compares current confirmed slope with previous confirmed (more reliable, slight delay). Standard mode: compares current with previous bar (faster, may use unconfirmed). Minimum threshold (default 3.4) filters weak momentum changes.
**Trailing Stop (Blackflag FTS Swingarm):** Uses Wilder's MA of true range. Modified mode: trueRange = max(HiLo, HRef, LRef) with enhanced gap handling. Unmodified: standard true range. Trailing stop calculated based on ATR factor and price trend direction. Separate settings for divergence signals (wider stops, grace periods).
### 🚀 Signal Types and Conditions
**1. NTZ Cross Signals:** Long: Slope crosses above +NTZ (default +8) AND positive delta ≥ threshold (default 3.4) AND stretch filter allows AND optional trend confirmation (short MA > long MA). Short: Slope crosses below -NTZ AND negative delta ≥ threshold AND filters allow. Exit: Slope re-enters NTZ OR reverses direction for confirmation bars OR trailing stop.
**2. Acceleration Signals:** Long: Acceleration ≥ threshold (default 40) AND slope above NTZ AND positive delta sufficient AND filters allow. Short: Acceleration ≥ threshold AND slope below -NTZ AND negative delta sufficient AND filters allow. Visual: Colored circles (cyan bullish, red bearish). Works independently to catch sudden momentum bursts.
**3. RSI Divergence Signals:** Bullish: Price lower low while smoothed RSI higher low, detected via pivot comparison (default up to 8 pivots). Bearish: Price higher high while RSI lower high. Optional Slope-RSI confirmation. Visual: Purple lines (bearish), lime lines (bullish). Exit: Divergence-specific trailing stop (wider ATR, grace period).
**4. Slope-RSI Divergence Signals:** Bullish: Slope accelerating down (negative delta, slope < -NTZ) BUT RSI rising over lookback AND gap exceeds threshold (default 10.0 points). Bearish: Slope accelerating up (positive delta, slope > NTZ) BUT RSI declining AND gap exceeds threshold. Visual: Orange triangles (bullish exhaustion), yellow triangles (bearish exhaustion) with dashed lines. Exit: Divergence-specific trailing stop.
**5. RSI-Slope Oscillator Signals:** Long: RSI crosses above slope AND both heading upward. Short: RSI crosses below slope AND both heading downward. State machine tracks cross then confirms direction. Exit: Opposite oscillator condition (allows reversal) OR trailing stop after grace period.

Custom Weekly Volume Profile [Multi-Timeframe]Description: This indicator renders a high-precision Weekly Volume Profile that resets at the start of every trading week. Unlike standard fixed-range profiles, this script builds the profile bar-by-bar using lower timeframe data (e.g., 1-minute or 5-minute data) to ensure accuracy even on higher timeframe charts.
It is designed for traders who track the developing value of the current week (Auction Market Theory) and need specific alerts when price tests the edges of value.
Key Features:
Developing Weekly Profile:
The profile resets automatically at the beginning of the week (Sunday/Monday).
It tracks the Point of Control (POC), Value Area High (VAH), and Value Area Low (VAL) in real-time as the week progresses.
Previous Week Levels:
The script automatically stores the final levels (POC, VAH, VAL) of the previous week and projects them forward. This allows you to trade tests of the prior week's value.
Auto-Scaling Histogram:
Smart Width: The profile starts wider at the beginning of the week (when data is sparse) and automatically shrinks as the week progresses (Thursday/Friday) to keep your chart clean and readable.
Advanced Alerting:
Crossover Alerts: Trigger alerts when price crosses the developing VAH/VAL or the previous week's levels.
Time Window Filter: Includes a session input (default 08:30-15:00) to restrict alerts to specific trading hours, preventing notifications during low-volume overnight sessions.
Customization:
Precision: Adjustable "Row Size" and "Calculation Timeframe" to tune performance vs. accuracy.
Visuals: Full color control over the Value Area, Outer Volume, and Level Lines.
Settings:
Calculation Precision: Determines the lower timeframe used to calculate the volume (e.g., set to "5" for 5-minute precision).
Value Area %: Default is 70%, standard for AMT trading.
Timezone: Adjustable to ensure the weekly reset aligns with your local exchange time (e.g., America/Chicago for CME Futures).

MoBo Bands - Momentum Breakout IndicatorDESCRIPTION
MoBo Bands (Momentum Breakout Bands) is a volatility-based breakout detection indicator that helps traders identify potential momentum shifts in the market. The indicator uses dynamic bands calculated from standard deviation to signal when price breaks above or below established ranges, indicating potential bullish or bearish momentum changes.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
KEY FEATURES
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
- Dynamic upper and lower bands based on standard deviation
- Color-coded bands that change based on breakout direction (green for bullish, red for bearish)
- Visual breakout arrows marking entry points above/below bands
- Optional colored fill zones between bands showing current momentum state
- Customizable displacement for band projection
- Built-in alert system for breakout and breakdown signals
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
HOW IT WORKS
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
The indicator calculates a middle line using a Simple Moving Average (SMA) with upper and lower bands positioned using standard deviation multipliers. When price closes above the upper band, a bullish breakout (green) is signaled. When price closes below the lower band, a bearish breakdown (red) is signaled. The bands and fill zones remain colored until the opposite signal occurs, providing clear visual confirmation of the current momentum state.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
CUSTOMIZABLE INPUTS
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
CALCULATION PARAMETERS:
- Price Source - Select which price data to use (default: close)
- Length - Period for SMA and standard deviation calculation (default: 10)
- Num Dev Up - Standard deviation multiplier for upper band (default: 0.8)
- Num Dev Down - Standard deviation multiplier for lower band (default: -0.8)
- Displace - Shift bands forward for projection analysis (default: 0)
DISPLAY OPTIONS:
- Colored Mobo - Enable/disable color-coded bands
- Colored Fill - Enable/disable fill zones between bands
- Break Arrows - Show/hide breakout and breakdown arrows
ALERT OPTIONS:
- Show Alerts - Enable/disable alert conditions
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
USAGE GUIDE
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Watch for price to close outside the bands as potential breakout signals:
BULLISH BREAKOUT: Green arrow appears below the lower band when price closes above the upper band, indicating upward momentum shift.
BEARISH BREAKDOWN: Red arrow appears above the upper band when price closes below the lower band, indicating downward momentum shift.
The bands also serve as dynamic support and resistance levels. When bands are green, momentum is bullish. When bands are red, momentum is bearish.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
BEST PRACTICES
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
- This indicator works well on liquid futures contracts (MNQ, MES, MYM, MGC, MCL) and major
currency pairs across multiple timeframes
- Lower deviation values (0.5-1.0) produce more frequent signals suitable for scalping
- Higher deviation values (1.5-2.5) filter for stronger breakouts ideal for swing trading
- Combine with volume indicators for additional confirmation
- Use with momentum oscillators to validate breakout strength
- Best results in trending market conditions
- Consider the overall market context and trend direction
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
ALERT CONFIGURATION
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Configure custom alerts for automated notifications:
- "MoBo BreakOUT" - Triggers on bullish breakout signals
- "MoBo BreakDOWN" - Triggers on bearish breakdown signals
Set alerts to "Once Per Bar Close" for confirmed signals and avoid false triggers during bar development.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
IDEAL FOR
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
- Day traders and scalpers on futures markets
- Swing traders looking for momentum shifts
- Breakout trading strategies
- Trend following systems
- Works on stocks, forex, crypto, and commodities
- Effective across multiple timeframes (1min to daily)
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Perfect for traders seeking clear visual breakout signals with minimal lag. The color-coded system and arrow markers make it easy to identify momentum changes at a glance.

CUSUM Volatility BreakoutCUSUM Volatility Breakout A statistical trend-detection and volatility-breakout indicator that identifies subtle momentum shifts earlier than traditional tools.
OVERVIEW
The CUSUM control chart is a statistical tool designed to detect small, gradual shifts from a target value. In trading, it helps identify the early stages of a trend, giving traders a heads-up before momentum becomes obvious on standard price charts. By spotting these subtle movements, the CUSUM Volatility Breakout indicator (CUSUM VB) can highlight potential breakout opportunities earlier than traditional indicators. In other words, a statistical trend detection & breakout indicator.
Copyright © 2025 CoinOperator
HOW IT WORKS
CUSUM VB uses a combination of differenced price series, volume normalization, and dynamic control limits:
CUSUM Principle: Tracks cumulative deviations of price from a zero reference. Signals occur when cumulative deviations exceed a control limit shown on the chart and clears any enabled filters.
Adaptive Volatility: H adjusts automatically based on short- vs long-term ATR ratios, allowing faster detection during volatile periods and reduced false signals in calm markets.
Volume Weighting (optional): Amplifies price CUSUM values during high-volume bars to prioritize market participation strength.
ATR Confirmation (optional): Ensures breakouts are accompanied by expanded volatility.
Bollinger Band Squeeze Integration (optional): Confirms trend breakouts by detecting volatility contraction and release shown on the chart as triangles.
Signals:
Arrows on the price chart mark the bars where trades are actually filled, based on conditions detected on the prior signal bar.
Long Entry: Confirmed positive CUSUM breach (price & volume) with BB breakout (signal bar).
Short Entry: Confirmed negative CUSUM breach (price & volume) with BB breakout (signal bar).
Exit Signals: Triggered automatically by opposite-side signals.
Alerts, when created, fire on the bars where fills occur.
CHART COMPONENTS
CUSUM Upper Price (CU Price) and CUSUM Lower Price (CL Price) are green/red circles for confirmed signals.
● Rapid upward accumulation of CU Price indicates a developing bullish trend.
● Rapid downward accumulation of CL Price indicates a developing bearish trend.
Decision/Control limits (UCL/LCL, red)
Zero line (reference for the differenced price series baseline)
Optional BB triangles and volume CUSUM
SETUP AND CONFIGURATION
Differenced Price Series
Differenced Price Length and Lag
Increase differencing lag or window length → Increases variance of residuals → Wider control limits (UCL/LCL) → Slower to trigger.
Decrease lag or window → Tighter limits, more responsive to short-term regime shifts.
CUSUM Parameters
Volume-Weighted CUSUM
NOTE : Uses price length if 'Confirm Price with Volume' is disabled, otherwise will use volume length.
Amplifies CUSUM price responses during high-volume bars and reduces them during low-volume bars. This links trend detection to market participation strength.
Volume-Weighted CUSUM doesn’t replace price confirmation with volume; it modulates it by volume intensity, amplifying price signals when participation is strong and suppressing them when weak.
Recommended when analyzing assets with consistent volume patterns (e.g., stocks, major futures).
Disable for low-liquidity or irregular-volume instruments (e.g., crypto pairs, small-cap stocks).
ATR Confirmation
Enable this feature to confirm CUSUM signals only when price deviations are accompanied by higher-than-normal volatility. The indicator compares current ATR to a smoothed ATR to detect volatility expansion. This helps distinguish true breakouts from low-volatility noise and reduces false signals during quiet periods.
Adjust the ATR lookback length, smoothing length, and expansion factor to control sensitivity. Rule of thumb:
ATR Length ≈ 0.5 × differenced price length to 1.5 × differenced price length gives balanced sensitivity.
ATR Smoothing 5–10 bars.
ATR Expansion 5% to 50%.
CUSUM Input Mode
Select how CUSUM processes differenced price and log-normalized volume — either directly (Txfrm Data) or as deviations from a short-term EMA baseline (Residuals):
Txfrm Data = transformed input: differenced price & log-normalized volume as input for CUSUM (larger swings, more frequent control limit breaches)
Residuals = deviation from short-term EMA baseline (smaller swings, fewer control limit breaches, but higher signal quality).
Residual EMA Length: Defines how quickly the residual baseline adapts to recent differenced price moves. Shorter = more reactive; longer = smoother baseline. Keep EMA length moderate; over-smoothing can distort timing.
Control Sensitivity (K)
Increase K → Less sensitive → CUSUM accumulates slower → Fewer signals, captures only major trends.
Decrease K → More sensitive → CUSUM accumulates faster → More signals, captures minor swings too.
Reset Mode : Method of resetting CUSUM values.
Immediate Reset: Reset both immediately after any signal breach. Traditional SPC.
Opposite-Side Reset: Reset only the opposite side when a valid signal fires. Best for ongoing trend tracking.
Decay Reset: Gradually reduce CUSUM values toward zero with a decay factor each bar. Maintains trend memory but allows slow “forgetting.”
Threshold Reset: Reset only if CUSUM returns below a small threshold (10 % of H). Filters noise without full wipe.
No Reset / Continuous: Never reset; instead track running totals. Long-term cumulative bias measurement.
Conflict Handling : Method of handling conflicting signals.
Ignore Both: Discards both when overlap occurs.
Prioritize Latest: Chooses the direction implied by the most recent close.
Prioritize Stronger: Compares absolute magnitudes of CU Price vs CL Price.
Average Resolve: Looks at the difference; small overlap → ignore, otherwise pick direction by sign.
Sequential Confirm: Requires N consecutive same-direction signals before confirmation.
Volume Parameters (Optional)
Amplification Factor
Adjusts volume sensitivity and effectively rescales the log series of volume to a comparable magnitude with price changes.
Since price and volume are normalized in a compatible way, the amplification factor is used instead of independent K and H values for volume.
Bollinger Bands (Optional)
Lookback Synchronization
BB Lookback (for CUSUM): Number of bars that define a window for the BB signal to look back for the CUSUM signal.
CUSUM Lookback (for BB): Number of bars that define a window for the CUSUM signal to look back for the BB signal.
Both can be enabled for stricter alignment.
Relationship Between K, H, ARL₀ and ARL₁
H (max) is usually the only H you need to adjust. With everything else being constant, increasing either K or H (max) generally increases both ARL₀ and ARL₁ : higher thresholds reduce false alarms but slow detection, and lower thresholds do the opposite.
Increase Min Target ARL ratio →
ARL₀ increases (safer, fewer false alarms)
ARL₁ decreases or stays small (faster detection)
Control limits slightly expand to achieve separation
Strategy becomes more selective and stable
Decrease Min Target ARL ratio →
ARL₀ decreases (more false alarms tolerated)
ARL₁ increases (slower detection tolerated)
Control limits tighten
Strategy becomes more sensitive but lower quality
The ARL Ratio of ARL₀ / ARL₁ is typically between 3 and 8. This implies you want your ARL₀ (false-alarm interval) ≈ 'Min Target ARL ratio' × differenced price length window.
Example:
"Min Target ARL ratio = 4.0"
⇒ implies you want your ARL₀ (false-alarm interval) ≈ 4 × differenced price length.
Assume price length = 50 (typical differencing window).
ARL ratio = 4.0 → target ARL = 4 × 50 = 200 bars.
● On a 6-hour chart (≈4 bars/day) → ~50 days between expected false alarms (on average).
● On a daily chart → ~200 trading days between false alarms (very conservative).
ARL ratio = 8.0 → target ARL = 400 bars → twice as infrequent signals vs ratio=4.
ARL ratio = 2.0 → target ARL = 100 bars → about half the inter-signal interval.
Another way to think about it: probability of a false alarm on any bar ≈ 1 / target ARL. If you want ~1% of bars producing alarms, target ARL ≈ 100.
QUICK START
Start with the defaults.
Set price series → length/order/lag
Configure CUSUM thresholds → K, H min/max
1. Adjust the price differencing lag/window.
2. Verify that it captures real price inflection points without overreacting to bar noise.
Enable optional filters → Volume, ATR, BB
The optional Bollinger Bands squeeze usually works best if used with CUSUM Input Mode = Txfrm Data.
Monitor CUSUM chart → CU Price, CL Price, thresholds, zero line
Act on signals → data window / chart triangles
Adjust sensitivity → H (max), K, lengths
Monitor ARL ratio and CUSUM behavior for fine-tuning
Note : When you’ve finalized the length, lag, and order of the Price Difference, as well as the Ln(Vol) Series of “Confirm Price with Volume” if enabled, then pass both through the Augmented Dickey–Fuller (ADF) mean reversion test to ensure they are stationary, i.e., mean reverting. You can find a ready-made indicator for such use at . Many thanks to tbtkg for this indicator.

Elite Cumulative Volume Delta OscillatorOverview
The Elite CVD+ is a premium-grade, session-resettable Cumulative Volume Delta indicator designed exclusively for professional futures and volume-profile traders. By focusing on the cleaner and more actionable Line-Focused mode, it transforms raw order flow data into a precise decision engine that reveals institutional buying/selling pressure, absorption, exhaustion, and high-probability reversal/continuation zones.
Unlike standard CVD tools that accumulate indefinitely or reset awkwardly, this version resets cleanly at your chosen anchor period (default daily) while pulling granular delta from lower timeframes when desired. The result: a smooth, non-repainting line that highlights real-time shifts in aggressive participation without the noise of perpetual accumulation.
Why This Indicator Is Elite-Level Useful
True Institutional Footprint
Cumulative Volume Delta measures the net aggressive buying (bid hits) vs. selling (ask hits). Sustained positive CVD = buyers in control; negative = sellers dominating. When price makes new highs on weakening CVD → classic bearish divergence signaling distribution. The session reset prevents old data from distorting current conviction, making divergences far more reliable than perpetual CVD.
Early Reversal Detection via Absorption & Extremes
Absorption highlighting flags scenarios where heavy delta pushes against price but price refuses to follow (e.g., massive selling into lows yet price holds or closes higher) — textbook trapping/retail stop-hunting.
Session CVD extremes with dynamic test zones pinpoint where aggressive flow is exhausted. Price returning to test these levels often produces high-R:R reversals.
Confluence-Rich Signals
Dual EMAs provide trend/filter context (crossovers, zero-line bounces). Dynamic coloring instantly shows momentum strength. Extreme single-bar delta highlights climax buying/selling. Built-in regular + hidden divergences align order flow with price structure.
Multi-Timeframe Consistency
Optional custom lower-TF delta fetch ensures the same granular data regardless of chart timeframe — critical for traders who switch between 1-min execution charts and 15-min/1H analysis charts.
Clean, Low-Lag Visuals
Thick CVD line with intelligent coloring, subtle backgrounds, persistent extreme lines, and optional labels keep the pane readable even during fast markets. No clutter from inferior candle representations.
How Professional Traders Use Elite CVD+ Most Successfully
Primary Setup Framework
Use on futures with reliable volume delta (ES, NQ, YM, CL, GC, etc.). Best timeframes: 3–15 minutes for intraday, 1H–4H for swing. Combine with price action structure (order blocks, fair value gaps, market profile highs/lows).
Practical Tips for Maximum Edge
Anchor Period: '1D' for regular session trading (resets at 00:00 exchange time). Use '1W' for weekly bias or '4H' for London/NY session-specific flow.
Lower Timeframe Delta: Enable custom and set to '1' or '3' for maximum granularity on indices. Leave disabled on higher charts for smoother read.
Absorption Tuning: Raise threshold to 80–90 on volatile instruments (NQ) to filter noise; lower to 70 on quieter ones (CL, GC).
Divergences: Most powerful on 15M+. Disable hidden on very low TFs if too noisy.
Alerts: Use the master “Any Event” alert for push/email/webhook notifications of zero crosses or new extremes — perfect for mobile monitoring.
Combination Tools: Pair with session VWAP, volume profile (fixed range at highs/lows), or psychological levels for triple confluence.
Proactive Execution MachineProactive Execution Machine: Multi-State Momentum Engine
Overview
The Proactive Execution Machine is a comprehensive trading workspace designed to filter market noise and highlight high-probability execution windows. It combines Dynamic Supply/Demand Zones, Manual Level Proximity, and a proprietary Dual-Candle Momentum Scoring system to categorize the market into specific "States" in real-time.
Instead of a simple arrow, this script provides a System Status dashboard that tells you exactly what phase the market is in—whether it's "Level Absorption," a "Demand Vortex," or a "Tired Trend. "Core Components
1. The Momentum Gauge (Bottom Left)
This table provides a deep-dive into order flow by scoring the last two candles based on:
Close Location: Where price closed relative to its range (Upper, Middle, Lower).
Body-to-Wick Ratio: Measuring the "effort vs. result" of the move.
Range Relativity: Whether the current bar is an "Inside" or "Outside" bar relative to the previous candle.
Slope (Linear Regression): A real-time trendline of momentum strength to see if conviction is accelerating or decelerating.
2. Dynamic State Engine The script automatically identifies and colors the chart into three primary zones:
Supply Zone (Red): The upper 30% of the recent price discovery range.
Demand Zone (Green): The lower 30% of the recent price discovery range.
Proximity Zones: When price nears your Manual Levels (PDH, PDL, NY Open, etc.), the engine switches priority to monitor for "Breakouts" or "Level Attacks."
3. System Status (Bottom Right)The dynamic HUD changes size and color based on conviction levels. It will notify you of specific market conditions:
Supply/Demand Overrun: When momentum is so strong it is smashing through reversal zones. Level Absorption/Stalling: When price reaches a key level but momentum has "flattened," suggesting a potential reversal or high-volume churn.
Buy/Sell Now: High-conviction signals triggered only when Location (Zone) and Momentum (Score) align.
How to Trade with the "Machine"
For Trend Followers: Look for the status "TREND (ACTIVE)" combined with a Momentum Score of $\pm 4$ or higher.
For Reversion Traders: Watch for "WATCH LONGS/SHORTS" when price enters a Supply or Demand zone. Wait for the status to flip to "BUY/SELL NOW" as momentum begins to shift back toward the mean.
For Level Traders: Input your daily levels (VAH, VAL, POC) in the settings. The machine will automatically prioritize these levels, changing status to "AT LEVEL" the moment price enters your specified proximity.
Key Settings
Manual Levels: Input up to 5 custom price levels for the proximity engine.
Proximity Sensitivity: Adjust how close price must be to a level (in points/pips) to trigger an "At Level" state.
Aggression (1-5): Tuning the pivot detection. Lower numbers respond faster to micro-structure; higher numbers focus on major swing points.
Visual Coding
Candle bodies are colored to assist with single candle pattern detection:
Lime/Pink Bar Highlights: The script uses a custom color engine to highlight "Shaved" (Marubozu) bars.
Lime indicates aggressive bullish conviction, while Pink (Fuchsia) highlights aggressive bearish conviction.
Green indicates bull engulfing candle
Red indicates bear engulfing candle
Orange is an outside bar
Yellow an inside bar
Gray a Doji bar
Black all other bars
Dynamic Zones: The chart features two primary background areas:
Red Zone (Top): The Supply Zone, identifying where sellers historically reclaim control.
Green Zone (Bottom): The Demand Zone, identifying where buyers historically step in.
System Status HUD (Bottom Right): This is the "brain" of the machine. The text size is adjusted to attract the trader's attention when the slope of the momentum increases above 5 (bullish expansion) or greater than - 5 (Bearish expansion). The system status changes color based on the market state too:
HUD Coloring:
Aqua: Active Bullish Trend.
Gray: Bull trend tired.
Orange: Active Bearish Trend.
Gray: Bear trend tired.
Red: For sell now.
Green: For buy now.
Lime: Bull price level under attack.
Marron: Bear price level under attack.
Gray: Price level absorption.
Yellow: Price at level and stalling.
Maroon: An "Overrun" or "Vortex" where price is smashing through supply/demand with extreme momentum.
The text size serves as a "Volatility Alarm." * When the text is Small, the market is in a "sideways" or "absorbing" state. You should be cautious about entering new trend trades.
When the text is Large, the Machine has detected that "Aggressive" participants have entered the order flow. This is your cue that a "Level Attack" or a "Trend Breakout" is currently in progress.
The 1-Minute Tactical Setup Guide:
Proactive Execution Machine Operating on the 1-minute (1m) timeframe requires a balance between speed and noise filtration. Because the Proactive Execution Machine uses a "State Engine" logic, it is uniquely suited for the high-velocity environment of the NY Open.
I follow these three tactical steps to optimize the chart for the 1m timeframe:
Step 1: Calibrate the "Proximity Sensitivity" On a 1m chart, a "Level" isn't a single price—it's a zone.
Adjustment: In the script settings, set your Proximity Sensitivity to a value that represents the average "noise" of your instrument.
For ES (S&P 500 Futures): 1.5 to 2.5 points.
For NQ (Nasdaq Futures): 5 to 10 points.
For Forex (EURUSD): 1 to 2 pips.
The Goal: You want the "AT LEVEL" status to trigger just as price is "sniffing" the level, giving you time to prepare your order before the touch.
Step 2: Watch the "History" Column in the Momentum Gauge
The bottom-left table is your most important tool for the 1m chart. It shows you the momentum of the last three bars ($T-0$, $T-1$, $T-2$).
Momentum Sequence: Look for a "Sequence of Three." If you see $T-2$ (Neutral), $T-1$ (Long), and $T-0$ (STR Long), you have a momentum explosion.
The Trap: If you see STR LONG followed immediately by a NEUTRAL bar while in a Supply Zone, the "Machine" will shift to "SUPPLY STALLING." This is your signal to tighten your trailing stop or take profit—it means the bulls are hitting a wall of sell orders.
Step 3: The "Level Attack" Execution
The script features a unique state called "LEVEL ATTACK." This is designed specifically for breakout/breakdown traders.
The Setup: Price is approaching a Manual Level (like the NY Open or PDH).
The Signal: If the status changes to "LEVEL ATTACK (BULL)," it means the momentum score is high ($>3$) and the slope is positive while within the proximity of the level.
The Action: This is a "Proactive" entry. Instead of waiting for the candle to close above the level, you are entering as the "Machine" detects institutional pressure "attacking" the level.
Daily Routine for the "Machine"
1) 09:25 AM: Input your 5 manual levels (PDH, PDL, NY Open, VAH, VAL).
2) 09:30 AM: Wait for the first 5 minutes of volatility to settle.
3) The Window: Look for the System Status to move from "IDLE" to a colored state.
4) The Trigger: Never take a signal if the Momentum Gauge is in the "Neutral" (Yellow) zone. Only execute when the gauge shows LONG/SHORT or STR LONG/STR SHORT.
Williams Volatility Channel (Full Range Breakout)Overview
This indicator implements a volatility breakout system inspired by legendary trader Larry Williams. It plots daily breakout levels calculated as the previous day’s close ± the full previous day’s range (high – low). These levels act as extreme volatility expansion thresholds:
- Upper Level: Previous close + previous day’s range
- Lower Level: Previous close – previous day’s range
A price move beyond these levels signals a strong directional breakout driven by expanded volatility — a classic Larry Williams concept for identifying potential trend continuation or acceleration days.
This version uses the full prior range (multiplier = 1.0), making it more aggressive than Williams’ original examples (which often used smaller fractions like 0.25–0.5 × range). It is particularly useful on instruments with clear daily sessions and visible overnight gaps or volatility spikes.
Key Features
Daily breakout levels plotted as horizontal lines that update at the start of each new trading day.
Optional semi-transparent fill between upper and lower levels for better visual channel perception.
Subtle background shading on the first bar of each new day and new week for easier time orientation.
Configurable colors and visibility toggles.
Generic session duration input (informational only) to help estimate candles per day on non-standard markets (e.g., European indices ≈ 8.5h, US stocks ≈ 6.5h, crypto ≈ 24h).
How to Use the Indicator
Breakout Signals
Bullish Breakout: Price closes or sustains above the Upper Level → potential strong upward momentum. Consider long entries or adding to existing longs.
Bearish Breakout: Price closes or sustains below the Lower Level → potential strong downward momentum. Consider short entries or adding to existing shorts.
These breakouts often occur on news events, earnings, or when the market “wakes up” after low-volatility periods.
Trend Confirmation
Use the direction of the breakout to confirm the prevailing trend: In an uptrend, focus primarily on upside breakouts.
In a downtrend, focus primarily on downside breakouts.
Breakouts against the trend can signal potential reversals (use with caution and additional confirmation).
Support & Resistance
Once price has broken a level, that level often flips role: A broken Upper Level can act as support on pullbacks.
A broken Lower Level can act as resistance on bounces.
Risk Management
Place stops beyond the opposite level or use ATR-based stops.
Consider partial profit-taking at 1× or 2× the prior day’s range from entry.
Best Markets & Timeframes
Works well on: Stock indices (DAX, FTSE MIB, CAC, S&P 500 futures, etc.)
Individual stocks
Commodities and futures with defined daily sessions
Cryptocurrencies (adjust session hours to 24 for continuous markets)
Recommended intraday timeframes: 5–60 minutes. On higher timeframes (4H, daily), the levels still appear but are less frequently tested intraday.
Important Notes
This is a trend-following / momentum tool, not a mean-reversion or gap-fading strategy (unlike Larry Williams’ famous “OOPS” pattern).
False breakouts can occur in low-volatility or ranging markets — always use additional confluence (volume, trend filters, higher-timeframe context).
The session duration input is informational and allows definition of how many candles per day should be used in the calculation.
This indicator provides a clean, visually intuitive way to spot high-volatility breakout opportunities based on one of Larry Williams’ timeless volatility concepts. Add it to your charts and combine it with your existing trading system for enhanced entry timing on strong momentum days.

BB Squeeze - HighQToolsBBW Squeeze — HighQTools
As always, if anyone has any tips or additional features they'd like to see, feel free to reach out!
Overview
The BBW Percentile Squeeze highlights periods of exceptionally compressed volatility by measuring Bollinger Band Width (BBW) and ranking it within a rolling historical percentile. When BBW falls into the lowest portion of its own distribution, price is statistically “tight” relative to recent history—a condition that often precedes volatility expansion.
Instead of plotting an oscillator in a separate pane, this tool expresses information directly on the price chart by changing bar colors during squeeze conditions, keeping charts clean and execution-focused.
How It Works
Standard Bollinger Bands are calculated using a configurable length and standard deviation.
Band width is normalized and evaluated against a rolling lookback window.
The current width is converted into a percentile rank (0–100):
Lower percentile = tighter volatility
Higher percentile = expanded volatility
When the percentile drops below the user-defined threshold, the market is considered to be in a squeeze.
An optional RTH-only mode allows the percentile calculation to consider Regular Trading Hours bars only, which is especially useful for futures traders who want to ignore overnight volatility distortions.
Visual Signals
Squeeze Bars
Bars are recolored when BBW percentile falls below the selected threshold, indicating extreme compression.
Release Bar (optional)
The first bar exiting the squeeze can be highlighted separately, marking the resolution of compression.
No oscillator, no bands, no shapes—only context applied directly to price.
How to Use It
The squeeze itself is not a trade signal.
Squeeze conditions indicate stored energy—expect range expansion, not direction.
Focus on:
Market structure
Higher-timeframe context
Volume, delta, or acceptance/rejection
The release from squeeze often provides the best opportunity, especially when aligned with directional bias or structural breaks.
For best results, use this tool as a context filter alongside execution setups rather than as a standalone entry signal.
Recommended Settings
BB Length: 10
Std Dev: 2.0
Percentile Lookback: 200–300 bars
Squeeze Threshold: 5-10 percentile
RTH-only: Enabled for index futures
Disclaimer
This indicator is designed to provide context, not predictions. Always combine volatility information with sound risk management and a complete trading plan.
Spike Detector (Ticks/Points)Spike Detector (Ticks / Points)
What This Indicator Does
Spike Detector (Ticks / Points) helps you easily spot large, high-volatility candles on your chart. These “spike” candles often happen during strong momentum, breakouts, stop runs, or sudden reversals.
Instead of guessing whether a candle is “big enough,” this indicator automatically measures each candle’s size and highlights it when it exceeds a threshold you choose.
How It Works (Simple Explanation)
The indicator measures the high-to-low range of every candle
It converts that range into ticks using the instrument’s minimum tick size
If the candle size is equal to or greater than your selected threshold, it is marked as a spike
Spike candles are:
Colored green for bullish candles
Colored red for bearish candles
A label is placed on the chart showing the candle size in ticks or points
This logic is non-repainting and works on all timeframes.
Inputs Explained
Spike Size Threshold
The minimum candle size required to be considered a spike (measured in ticks)
Display Unit (Ticks / Points)
Choose whether the label shows the candle size in:
Ticks (recommended for futures)
Points (useful for stocks and indices)
Label Offset
Adjusts how far above or below the candle the label appears
How to Use This Indicator
This indicator is meant to be used as a visual tool, not a standalone trading system.
Common ways traders use it:
Identify momentum ignition candles
Spot stop runs or liquidity grabs
Confirm breakouts with strong candle expansion
Avoid entering trades during abnormally volatile bars
Study volatility behavior during specific sessions
Many traders combine this with:
Market structure
Support & resistance
Trend direction
Volume or session context
Tips for Best Results
Start with a moderate threshold and adjust based on the market you trade
Higher timeframes usually need larger thresholds
Futures traders may prefer tick mode, while stock traders may prefer points
Use spike candles as context, not signals by themselves
Notes
Works on all symbols that support tick size data
Does not repaint
Designed to be lightweight and easy to read

UT Bot + Hull MA Close-Cross Confirm (Strategy)UT Bot + Hull MA Close-Cross Confirm (Strategy)
This strategy combines the classic UT Bot ATR trailing stop with a Hull Moving Average (HMA) close-cross confirmation to reduce false signals and improve trade quality.
The system works in two stages:
UT Bot Signal Detection
A volatility-adjusted ATR trailing stop identifies potential trend shifts using a 1-period EMA crossover. This provides early buy and sell signals based on momentum and volatility.
Hull MA Close-Cross Confirmation
UT Bot signals are only confirmed once price closes across the Hull Moving Average. If a UT signal occurs on the wrong side of the Hull MA, the strategy waits until a valid close-cross occurs before triggering an entry. This confirmation step helps filter chop and late-trend reversals.
Key Features
Non-repainting logic (uses bar-close confirmation)
Futures-friendly design (fixed contracts, point-based TP/SL)
Supports Long, Short, or Both directions
Built-in Take Profit & Stop Loss
Configurable Hull MA type (HMA / EHMA / THMA)
Optional Heikin Ashi signal source
Clean Buy/Sell alerts for automation and webhook execution
Trade Logic Summary
Long Entry:
UT Bot buy signal + confirmed close above Hull MA
Short Entry:
UT Bot sell signal + confirmed close below Hull MA
Exit:
Fixed Take Profit or Stop Loss (user-defined in points)
Alerts & Automation
The strategy includes dedicated Buy Alert and Sell Alert conditions designed for webhook automation (e.g., trade logging, execution engines, or external dashboards). Alerts trigger only on confirmed bar closes, matching backtest behavior.
Intended Use
This strategy is designed for futures markets (e.g., MNQ, ES, GC) and performs best on intraday timeframes. Session filters, risk rules, and trade management can be handled externally if desired.

ORB Breakout & RetestORB Breakout & Breakdown Indicator - Complete Opening Range Strategy
Description :
The ORB (Opening Range Breakout) Breakout & Retest Indicator is a simple tool designed to identify opening range breakouts and breakdowns with retest confirmation. This indicator works on ANY timeframe while automatically analyzing 1-minute price action to detect precise entry signals.
What makes this indicator unique:
- ✅ Multi-Timeframe ORB Analysis - Simultaneously tracks 5-min, 15-min, and 30-min opening ranges
- ✅ Smart Retest Logic - Filters false breakouts by requiring price to retest and confirm the level
- ✅ Works on Any Chart Timeframe - View on 5-min, 15-min, 1-hour, or daily charts while getting 1-minute precision
- ✅ Both Long & Short Signals - Detects bullish breakouts AND bearish breakdowns
- ✅ Customizable Alerts - Get notified when confirmed setups occur
- ✅ Clean Visual Display - Compact table showing all ORB levels and signal status
How it Works:
Opening Range Detection :
- 5-Min ORB: Captures high/low from 9:30-9:35 AM
- 15-Min ORB: Captures high/low from 9:30-9:45 AM
- 30-Min ORB: Captures high/low from 9:30-10:00 AM
Breakout Confirmation (3-Step Process) :
1. Initial Break - Price closes above ORB High (or below ORB Low for shorts)
2. Retest - Price pulls back to retest the broken level
3. Confirmation - Price breaks through again, confirming the trend
This retest requirement dramatically reduces false signals and helps you enter trades with better risk/reward.
Perfect For :
- Day traders looking for opening range strategies
- Scalpers who need precise entry signals
- Swing traders identifying strong intraday momentum
- Anyone trading stocks, futures, forex, or crypto during market hours
