NY 4H Wyckoff State Machine [CHE] NY 4H Wyckoff State Machine — Full (Re-Entry, Breakout, Wick, Re-Accum/Distrib, Dynamic Table) — One-Candle Wyckoff Re-Entry (OCWR)
Summary
OCWR operationalizes a one-candle session workflow: mark the first four-hour New York candle, fix its high and low as the session range when the window closes, and drive entries through a Wyckoff-style state machine on intraday bars. The script adds an ATR-scaled buffer around the range and requires multi-bar acceptance before treating breaks or re-entries as valid. Optional wick-cluster evidence, a proximity retest, and simple volume or RSI gates increase selectivity. Background tints expose regimes, shapes mark events, a dynamic table explains the current state, and hidden plots supply alert payloads. The design reduces random flips and makes state transitions auditable without higher-timeframe calls.
Origin and name
Method name: One-Candle Wyckoff Re-Entry (OCWR)
Transcript origin: The source idea is a “stupid simple one-candle scalping” routine: mark the first New York four-hour candle (commonly between one and five in the morning New York time), drop to five minutes, observe accumulation inside, wait for a manipulation move outside, then trade the re-entry back inside. Stops go beyond the excursion extreme; targets are either a fixed reward multiple or the opposite side of the range. Preference is given to several manipulation candles. This indicator codifies that workflow with explicit states, acceptance counters, buffers, and optional quality filters. Any external performance claims are not part of the code.
Motivation: Why this design?
Session levels are widely respected, yet single-bar breaches around them are noisy. OCWR separates range discovery from trade logic. It locks the range at the end of the window, applies an ATR-scaled buffer to ignore marginal oversteps, and requires acceptance over several bars for breaks and re-entries. Wick evidence and optional retest proximity help confirm that an excursion likely cleared liquidity rather than launched a trend. This yields cleaner transitions from test to commitment.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Baseline: Static session lines or one-shot Wyckoff tags without process control.
Architecture: Dual long and short state machines; ATR-buffered edges; multi-bar acceptance for breaks and re-entries; optional wick dominance and cluster checks; optional retest tolerance; direct and opposite breakout paths; cooldown after fires; distribution timeout; dynamic table with highlighted row.
Practical effect: Fewer single-bar head-fakes, clearer hand-offs, and on-chart explanations of the machine’s view.
Wyckoff structure by example — OCWR on five minutes
One-candle setup:
On the four-hour chart, mark the first New York candle’s high and low, then switch to five minutes. Solid lines show the fixed range; dashed lines show ATR-buffered edges.
Long path (verbal mapping):
Phase A, Stopping Action: Price stabilizes inside the range.
Phase B, Consolidation: Sustained balance while the window is closed and after the range is fixed.
Phase C, Test (Spring): Excursion below the buffered low with preference for several outside bars and dominant lower wicks, then a return inside.
Re-entry acceptance: A required run of inside bars validates the test.
Phase D, Breakout to Markup: Long signal fires; stop beyond the excursion extreme; objective is the opposite range or a fixed reward multiple.
Phase E, Trend (Markup) and Re-Accumulation: Advance continues until target, stop, confirmation back against the box, or timeout. A pause inside trend may register as re-accumulation.
Short path mirrors the above: A UTAD-style move forms above the buffered high, then re-entry leads to Markdown and possible re-distribution.
Variant map (verbal):
Accumulation after a downtrend: with Spring and Test, or without Spring; both proceed to Markup and may pause in Re-Accumulation.
Distribution after an uptrend: with UTAD and Test, or without UTAD; both proceed to Markdown and may pause in Re-Distribution.
Note: Phases A through E occur within each variant and are not separate variants.
How it works (technical)
Session window: A configurable four-hour New York window records its high and low. At window end, the bounds are fixed for the session.
ATR buffer: A margin above and below the fixed range discourages triggers from tiny oversteps.
Inside and outside: Users choose close-based or wick-based detection. Overshoot requirements are expressed verbally as a fraction of the range with an optional absolute minimum.
Manipulation tracking: The machine counts bars spent outside and records the side extreme.
Re-entry acceptance: After a return inside, a specified number of inside bars must print before acceptance.
Direct and opposite breakouts: Direct breakouts from accumulation and opposite breakouts after manipulation are supported, subject to acceptance and optional filters.
Targets and exits: Choose the opposite boundary or a fixed reward multiple. Distribution ends on target, stop, confirmation back against the range, or timeout.
Context filters (optional): Volume above a scaled SMA, RSI thresholds, and a trend SMA for simple regime context.
Diagnostics: Background tints for regimes; arrows for re-entries; triangles for breakouts; table with row highlights; hidden plots for alert values.
Central table (Wyckoff console)
The table sits top-right and explains the machine’s stance. Columns: Structure label, plain-English description, active state pair for long and short, and human phase tags. Rows: Start and range building; accumulation branch with Spring and Test as well as direct breakout; Markup and re-accumulation; distribution branch with UTAD and Test as well as direct short breakout; Markdown and re-distribution. Only the active state cell is rewritten each last bar, for example “L_ACCUM slash S_ACCUM”. Row highlighting is context-aware: accumulation, Spring or UTAD, breakout, Markup or Markdown, and re-accumulation or re-distribution checks can highlight independently so users see simultaneous conditions. The table is created once, updated only on the last bar for efficiency, and functions as a read-only console to audit why a signal fired and where the path currently sits.
Parameter Guide
Session window and time zone: First four hours of New York by default; time zone “America/New_York”.
ATR length and buffer factor: Control buffer size; larger reduces sensitivity, smaller reacts faster.
Minimum overshoot (fraction and absolute): Demand meaningful extension beyond the buffer.
Break mode: Close-based is stricter; wick-based is more reactive.
Acceptance counts: Separate counts for break, re-entry, and opposite breakout; higher values reduce noise.
Minimum bars outside: Ensures manipulation is not a single spike.
Wick detection and clusters (optional): Dominance thresholds and cluster size within a short window.
Retest required and tolerance (optional): Gate re-entry by proximity to the buffered edge.
Volume and RSI filters (optional): Simple gates on activity and momentum.
TP mode and reward multiple: Opposite range or fixed multiple.
Cooldown and distribution timeout: Rate-limit signals and prevent endless distribution.
Visualization toggles: Background phases, labels, table, and helper lines.
Reading & Interpretation
Solid lines are the fixed session bounds; dashed lines are buffers. Backgrounds tint accumulation, manipulation, and distribution. Arrows show accepted re-entries; triangles show direct or opposite breakouts. Labels can summarize entry, stop, target, and risk. The table highlights the active row and the current state pair.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
OCWR baseline: Each morning, mark the New York four-hour candle, move to five minutes, prefer multi-bar manipulation outside, then wait for a qualified re-entry inside. Stop beyond the excursion extreme. Target the opposite range for conservative management or a fixed multiple for uniform sizing.
Trend following: Favor direct breakouts with trend alignment and no contradictory wick evidence.
Quality control: When noise rises, increase acceptance, raise the buffer factor, enable retest, and require wick clusters.
Discretionary confluences: Fair-value gaps and trend lines can be added by the user; they are not computed by this script.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Closed-bar confirmation is recommended when you require finality; live-bar conditions can change until close. The script does not call higher-timeframe data. It uses arrays, lines, labels, boxes, and a table; maximum bars back is five thousand; table updates are last-bar only. Known limits include compressed buffers in quiet sessions, unreliable wick evidence in thin markets, and session misalignment if the platform time zone is not New York.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Start with ATR length fourteen, buffer factor near zero point fifteen, overshoot fraction near zero point ten, acceptance counts of two, minimum outside duration three, retest required on.
Too many flips: increase acceptance, raise buffer, enable retest, and tighten wick thresholds.
Too slow: reduce acceptance, lower buffer, switch to wick-based breaks, disable retest.
Noisy wicks: increase minimum wick ratio and cluster size, or disable wick detection.

RSI Pivot Breaks█ OVERVIEW
RSI Pivot Breaks is an RSI-based indicator that detects breakout events on oscillator-based pivot levels (RSI or MA RSI).
The tool automatically plots pivot levels, tracks their breakouts, highlights momentum shifts, and generates alerts for key events (pivot breaks and OB/OS crosses).
The indicator is designed primarily for momentum strategies — pivot breakouts often precede directional price moves, making RSI Pivot Breaks a powerful tool for identifying accelerations and changes in strength.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator analyzes local RSI extremes and transforms them into dynamic support/resistance levels.
When RSI or MA RSI breaks the last pivot, it signals a shift in momentum balance, often leading to an impulse move.
Key concepts:
- pivot highs/lows detected on RSI or MA RSI,
- pivot lines extend forward until broken,
- pivot filters restrict pivot detection to specific RSI zones,
- OB/OS levels provide contextual momentum thresholds.
█ FEATURES
Pivot Detection & Breakouts
- Detection of pivot highs and lows on RSI or MA RSI.
- Pivot filters allow you to limit pivot detection to specific RSI ranges (e.g., only bullish pivots below 50 or bearish pivots above 50).
- Pivot lines update automatically after breakout.
Background highlights:
- green on pivot-high breakouts,
- red on pivot-low breakouts.
RSI & MA RSI
- Dynamic RSI colors based on momentum direction.
- Optional MA RSI line (SMA/EMA/RMA/WMA) usable as a smoother pivot source.
OB / OS Zones
- Fully adjustable overbought/oversold levels.
- Dedicated OB/OS colors.
- Optional gradient backgrounds.
Highlights
- Instant identification of moments when RSI breaks a key pivot level.
Alerts:
- pivot high breakouts.
- pivot low breakouts.
- OB crosses.
- OS crosses.
█ HOW TO USE
Add the indicator:
Indicators → RSI Pivot Breaks.
RSI Settings
- RSI Length – core RSI period.
- RSI MA Length & Type – MA RSI smoothing parameters.
Pivot Settings
- Pivot Left / Pivot Right – number of bars required to form a pivot and also the number of bars of delay before the pivot becomes confirmed.
(Higher values produce more reliable but slower pivots.)
Pivot Filters
- Minimum/maximum allowed RSI levels for pivot Highs and Lows.
- Examples:
- detect only pivot Highs at low RSI values.
- ignore pivots during extreme momentum.
- allow only mid-range pivot detection depending on strategy.
Visualization
- Toggles for RSI and MA RSI visibility.
- Optional gradients.
- Full color and transparency customization.
OB/OS Levels
- Adjustable thresholds depending on instrument volatility and strategy style.
█ SIGNAL INTERPRETATION
BUY
- RSI breaks the latest pivot high.
- RSI crosses upward out of OS.
- Context example: pivot lows forming a rising sequence.
SELL
- RSI breaks the latest pivot low.
- RSI drops downward from OB.
- Context example: pivot highs forming a declining sequence.
Trend / Momentum
- Pivot breakouts indicate acceleration or continuation of momentum.
- MA-based pivots provide smoother and more stable momentum structure.
█ APPLICATIONS
- Momentum Trading – pivot breaks as early acceleration signals.
- Scalping & Intraday – fast RSI pivots react quickly to short-term shifts.
- Swing Trading – smoother pivots using MA RSI for higher-timeframe structure.
- Divergence Detection – pivot behavior helps reveal divergence patterns, e.g.:
- RSI pivots rising while price is falling → potential early momentum reversal.
- Custom Filtering – pivot filters allow, for example:
- blocking bullish signals near OB.
- blocking bearish signals near OS.
- detecting pivots only above/below mid-range during strong trends,
depending entirely on strategy design.
█ NOTES
- Pivot detection includes natural delay equal to the Left/Right parameters.
- Pivot filters significantly change the character of signals, allowing fine-tuning of aggressiveness for any strategy.
Double Inside Body Candles with Box & Alert + 5-Bar LinesThis indicator identifies Double Inside Body Candle patterns, where:
Candle 1 is completely inside Candle 2,
Candle 2 is completely inside Candle 3 (the parent candle),
Candle 3 has a real body (not a doji or negligible body size).
Once the pattern is detected:
A label appears below the current candle.
A highlight box is drawn around Candle 3 (the parent candle) body range.
Horizontal lines are drawn from the top and bottom of Candle 3’s body and extend forward for exactly 5 bars to visualize potential breakout levels.
The script also detects and highlights breakouts:
🔼 Bullish breakout: if price closes above Candle 3's body high.
🔽 Bearish breakout: if price closes below Candle 3's body low.
Alerts are available for:
Double Inside Body pattern detection
Bullish breakout
Bearish breakout
Traders can use this script to identify consolidation periods (double inside bars), then monitor for breakout opportunities in either direction, using the 5-bar lines as short-term breakout levels.
Opening Range and Market BoundariesOpening Range and Market Boundaries
This versatile and insightful indicator combines two powerful concepts frequently used by professional traders: Opening Range Analysis and Market Boundaries derived from previous high/low levels. It is specifically designed to support intraday trading strategies and helps you identify key price zones for entries, exits, and breakout confirmations.
🔍 Features & Utility
1. Opening Range Box
What it does:
Highlights the high and low of the first candle after market open (9:15 AM IST) with a shaded box. This box spans the full trading session, from 9:15 AM to 3:30 PM, representing the key price range where the initial balance is formed.
Timeframe Compatibility:
The Opening Range box is optimized for 1-minute to 1-hour charts. It is most effective on lower timeframes (1m, 5m, 15m, 30m) where intraday price movements and breakout patterns can be clearly observed.
Usage Tips:
Breakouts above or below the Opening Range box can signal potential directional bias for the rest of the trading day.
Price consolidating within the range may indicate a choppy or range-bound session.
Works well with volume and momentum indicators for confirmation.
2. Market Boundaries
What it does:
Plots horizontal lines at:
Previous Day High/Low
Previous Week High/Low
Previous Month High/Low
Why it matters:
These levels act as natural support and resistance zones, and are commonly watched by institutional traders, making them crucial for:
Spotting reversals or breakouts
Planning stop-loss and target zones
Avoiding trades around high-rejection areas
Customization Options:
Toggle ON/OFF for Daily, Weekly, and Monthly levels.
Independent colors and line thickness for each level, enabling you to distinguish between different timeframes easily.
🛠️ How to Use Effectively
Use during market open:
Switch to a 5-minute or 15-minute chart during the first few candles of the session. Observe the Opening Range box formation and plan trades based on breakout direction.
Confluence Trading:
Look for price action near previous session highs/lows in confluence with the Opening Range box edges. These intersections often become high-probability zones for breakouts or reversals.
Session Preparation:
Before the market opens, analyze where the price is relative to past high/low boundaries. If it's near a weekly/monthly level, be cautious — those areas can cause whipsaws or false breakouts.
Avoid low-volume breakouts:
Use this indicator in conjunction with volume tools or price action confirmation to validate the strength of a move outside the Opening Range or Market Boundaries.
📌 Summary
This indicator is designed for intraday traders, scalpers, and swing traders who want a reliable structure to guide their decisions. It visually marks the opening balance of the market and essential higher timeframe boundaries, helping you trade with discipline and precision.
Volume Status by BobRivera990This indicator is a tool that shows a relative view of the trading volume and classifies the volume into 5 different levels and makes it easy to compare it in different periods.
It is also specifically designed for detecting failed (fake) breakouts.
How it works?
This tool uses something similar to Bollinger Bands , but with more bands.
I used two standard deviations (positive and negative) on either side of a simple moving average ( SMA ) of the trading volume .
I also used twice the standard deviation (negative and positive) on either side of the SMA to create more bands.
The classification is made as follows:
Usage:
This indicator is a tool to compare the volume , relatively and in different periods. It is also a good tool for detecting failed (fake) breakouts.
Fake Breakouts Occurs when a support or resistance is broken but the market does not accept and support these price changes. This lack of support will cause trading volume to decrease during or after the breakout.
So, if the indicator shows Low-Volume or Minor-Volume status at the time of the breakout or right after that, it may be a fake breakout.
The truth is you cannot avoid false breakouts completely as long as you trade breakouts but you can minimize the risk and the loss.
Thank you all for forming this unique community.
Parameters:
" Volume SMA Length " => The length of the simple moving average of the Volume
In-Range Rolling SL
In-Range Rolling SL Indicator Guide
The In-Range Rolling SL indicator is a dynamic stop-loss system designed for intraday trading that identifies squeeze conditions and trade entry opportunities based on rolling price windows.
Core Concept
The indicator analyzes the highest high and lowest low over a defined lookback period (default: 2 candles) to establish an "in-range" zone. When price stays within this range without breaking either boundary, it creates a squeeze condition—signaling potential breakout opportunities.
Trading Strategy
Wait for the Squeeze Setup
The most effective approach is to wait for the in-range stop-loss squeeze to form. This occurs when both the long SL (green line) and short SL (red line) are active simultaneously, indicated by the yellow status dot (🟡) in the indicator table. Analyze the wick high/close relationship against the in-range SL while price remains compressed—this setup identifies which side is more likely to break first.
Entry Timing and Risk Management
Long Entry: Enter when a candle closes above the in-range short SL (red line) without any wick above it. This "perfect breakout candle" confirms bullish momentum. Your entry should be around the region, with your stop-loss placed just below the top of the breakout candle's high.
Short Entry: Enter when a candle closes below the in-range long SL (green line). The stop-loss for short trades should be set 34.26 points above your entry for appropriate risk protection.
Risk-Reward Considerations
If you enter at the low of a breakout candle, expect only 8.26 points of drawdown potential. However, if you accidentally go long and your stop gets hit, you'll experience the full in-range stop-loss distance as your loss.
Advanced Techniques
Failed Breakout Trap: If a follow-up candle doesn't make a higher high after the initial breakout, consider adding a "winner" for compensation rather than holding for a trap. When your buy-stop sits on top of the breakout candle high, this isn't a valid long trade setup.
Flip Trade Opportunity: In-range stop-loss attempts to flip often provide ideal entry points. If the up candle doesn't break the previous low, this validates the long continuation.
Long Scalp Trading: A failed long scalp can be traded if you missed the initial market open down-up-down trend. With a stop-loss of 34 points and potential profit exceeding 50 points, this provides favorable risk-reward ratios.
Sustained Loss Management: Stop-loss for long positions should target 26 points maximum loss. The indicator automatically invalidates stop-losses when price violates them, keeping your chart clean for the next setup.
-------------------------
In-Range Rolling SL Indicator Guide
The In-Range Rolling SL indicator is a dynamic stop-loss system designed for intraday trading that identifies squeeze conditions and breakout opportunities based on rolling price windows.
How the Indicator Works
The indicator tracks the highest high and lowest low over your selected lookback period (default: 2 candles) to establish dynamic support and resistance levels. These levels create an "in-range" zone that adapts as new price action develops.
Visual Components
Green Line (Long SL): The rolling window's lowest low - your stop-loss level for long positions
Red Line (Short SL): The rolling window's highest high - your stop-loss level for short positions
Status Indicators:
🟡 Yellow: Squeeze condition (both SLs active)
🟢 Green: Long-only setup
🔴 Red: Short-only setup
⚪ White: Neutral (no active SLs)
The Squeeze Setup Strategy
Step 1: Wait for the Squeeze
The most effective way to use the In-Range Rolling SL is to wait for the in-range stop-loss squeeze to form. During the squeeze, both the green and red lines are active, meaning price has stayed within the rolling window without breaking either boundary. This compression phase indicates that it's "go time" to prepare your trade.
While in the squeeze, analyze the wick high/close relationship against the in-range SL levels. This analysis helps you determine which side is more likely to split when the breakout occurs.
Step 2: Identify the Perfect Breakout
Long Breakout: A perfect breakout candle should close above the in-range stop-loss high (red line) without any wick above it. This clean breakout demonstrates strong momentum and reduces the risk of a false breakout.
Short Breakout: Look for a candle that closes below the in-range SL low (green line), indicating a short-side trade is coming up.
Step 3: Entry Execution
Long Entry: Your entry should be around the region of the breakout. Position your stop-loss just below the top of the breakout candle's high. This placement protects you from failed breakouts while giving the trade room to develop.
Short Entry: Enter as the candle closes below the in-range SL low. The stop-loss for short-side trades is typically 34.26 points of potential loss based on the indicator's measurements.
Risk-Reward Analysis
Entry at Breakout Low
If you enter here at the low of the breakout candle, you're looking at only 8.26 points of drawdown potential. This represents your best-case entry scenario.
Accidental Wrong-Side Entry
However, if you accidentally go long here and your stop gets hit, you'll experience the full in-range stop-loss distance as your loss. This emphasizes the importance of waiting for clear breakout confirmation.
Long Scalp Opportunity
A failed long scalp can be traded here if you missed the market open down-up-down trend. With a stop-loss of 34 points and potential profit greater than 50 points, this setup offers a favorable risk-reward ratio of approximately 1:1.5.
Advanced Trade Management
Failed Breakout Recognition
Follow-Up Candle Validation: If a follow-up candle did not make a higher high than the breakout candle, this could be a trap. Your buy-stop on top of the breakout candle high is not a valid long trade setup in this scenario. Consider adding a "winner" for compensation rather than holding through the potential reversal.
Flip Trade Opportunities
In-range stop-loss tries to flip to the other side often provide excellent entries. If the up candle did not break the previous low, this validates the long continuation and suggests the squeeze is resolving to the upside.
Sustained Position Management
Stop-Loss Guidelines: Stop-loss for long positions should be 26 points of maximum loss. The indicator table displays the delta (Δ) showing your real-time distance to the active stop-loss, helping you manage risk dynamically.
Entry Timing: Your entry should be around the region where the breakout confirms, rather than chasing price after a large move. In order to prepare your trade, position your stop-loss on top of the breakout candle's high for long trades.
Practical Example from the Chart
Looking at the MNQ1! chart, you can see multiple squeeze formations throughout the session. The most notable sequence shows:
An initial downtrend creating a squeeze setup
A perfect breakout candle closing above the red line without upper wick
The subsequent candle validating the move
Later, a failed breakout attempt that created a short opportunity
Multiple flip attempts that provided re-entry points for scalpers
The indicator's table in the top-right continuously updates with the current SL levels, gap size, candle size, and delta values - giving you all the information needed to assess each trade's risk-reward profile in real-time.
Smart Non-Overlapping S/R How to Interpret This Chart
The "Cluster" Effect: Look for areas where lines from different timeframes are close together (e.g., a Daily Support line is right next to a 4-Hour Support line). These "clusters" are very strong zones where price is highly likely to bounce.
Breakouts:
Bullish Breakout: If a candle closes above a Resistance line (e.g., "Daily Res"), that line often turns into new Support.
Bearish Breakout: If a candle closes below a Support line (e.g., "Daily Sup"), that line often turns into new Resistance.
Color Coding:
Orange (Daily): Major levels. Expect big reactions here.
Purple (4H): Medium trend levels. Good for swing trades.
Blue (1H): Minor levels. Good for day trading entries.

RSI Donchian Channel [DCAUT]█ RSI Donchian Channel
📊 ORIGINALITY & INNOVATION
The RSI Donchian Channel represents an important synthesis of two complementary analytical frameworks: momentum oscillators and breakout detection systems. This indicator addresses a common limitation in traditional RSI analysis by replacing fixed overbought/oversold thresholds with adaptive zones derived from historical RSI extremes.
Key Enhancement:
Traditional RSI analysis relies on static threshold levels (typically 30/70), which may not adequately reflect changing market volatility regimes. This indicator adapts the reference zones dynamically based on the actual RSI behavior over the lookback period, helping traders identify meaningful momentum extremes relative to recent price action rather than arbitrary fixed levels.
The implementation combines the proven momentum measurement capabilities of RSI with Donchian Channel's breakout detection methodology, creating a framework that identifies both momentum exhaustion points and potential continuation signals through the same analytical lens.
📐 MATHEMATICAL FOUNDATION
Core Calculation Process:
Step 1: RSI Calculation
The Relative Strength Index measures momentum by comparing the magnitude of recent gains to recent losses:
Calculate price changes between consecutive periods
Separate positive changes (gains) from negative changes (losses)
Apply selected smoothing method (RMA standard, also supports SMA, EMA, WMA) to both gain and loss series
Compute Relative Strength (RS) as the ratio of smoothed gains to smoothed losses
Transform RS into bounded 0-100 scale using the formula: RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS))
Step 2: Donchian Channel Application
The Donchian Channel identifies the highest and lowest RSI values within the specified lookback period:
Upper Channel: Highest RSI value over the lookback period, represents the recent momentum peak
Lower Channel: Lowest RSI value over the lookback period, represents the recent momentum trough
Middle Channel (Basis): Average of upper and lower channels, serves as equilibrium reference
Channel Width Dynamics:
The distance between upper and lower channels reflects RSI volatility. Wide channels indicate high momentum variability, while narrow channels suggest momentum consolidation and potential breakout preparation. The indicator monitors channel width over a 100-period window to identify squeeze conditions that often precede significant momentum shifts.
📊 COMPREHENSIVE SIGNAL ANALYSIS
Primary Signal Categories:
Breakout Signals:
Upper Breakout: RSI crosses above the upper channel, indicates momentum reaching new relative highs and potential trend continuation, particularly significant when accompanied by price confirmation
Lower Breakout: RSI crosses below the lower channel, suggests momentum reaching new relative lows and potential trend exhaustion or reversal setup
Breakout strength is enhanced when the channel is narrow prior to the breakout, indicating a transition from consolidation to directional movement
Mean Reversion Signals:
Upper Touch Without Breakout: RSI reaches the upper channel but fails to break through, may indicate momentum exhaustion and potential reversal opportunity
Lower Touch Without Breakout: RSI reaches the lower channel without breakdown, suggests potential bounce as momentum reaches oversold extremes
Return to Basis: RSI moving back toward the middle channel after touching extremes signals momentum normalization
Trend Strength Assessment:
Sustained Upper Channel Riding: RSI consistently remains near or above the upper channel during strong uptrends, indicates persistent bullish momentum
Sustained Lower Channel Riding: RSI stays near or below the lower channel during strong downtrends, reflects persistent bearish pressure
Basis Line Position: RSI position relative to the middle channel helps identify the prevailing momentum bias
Channel Compression Patterns:
Squeeze Detection: Channel width narrowing to 100-period lows indicates momentum consolidation, often precedes significant directional moves
Expansion Phase: Channel widening after a squeeze confirms the initiation of a new momentum regime
Persistent Narrow Channels: Extended periods of tight channels suggest market indecision and accumulation/distribution phases
🎯 STRATEGIC APPLICATIONS
Trend Continuation Strategy:
This approach focuses on identifying and trading momentum breakouts that confirm established trends:
Identify the prevailing price trend using higher timeframe analysis or trend-following indicators
Wait for RSI to break above the upper channel in uptrends (or below the lower channel in downtrends)
Enter positions in the direction of the breakout when price action confirms the momentum shift
Place protective stops below the recent swing low (long positions) or above swing high (short positions)
Target profit levels based on prior swing extremes or use trailing stops to capture extended moves
Exit when RSI crosses back through the basis line in the opposite direction
Mean Reversion Strategy:
This method capitalizes on momentum extremes and subsequent corrections toward equilibrium:
Monitor for RSI reaching the upper or lower channel boundaries
Look for rejection signals (price reversal patterns, volume divergence) when RSI touches the channels
Enter counter-trend positions when RSI begins moving back toward the basis line
Use the basis line as the initial profit target for mean reversion trades
Implement tight stops beyond the channel extremes to limit risk on failed reversals
Scale out of positions as RSI approaches the basis line and closes the position when RSI crosses the basis
Breakout Preparation Strategy:
This approach positions traders ahead of potential volatility expansion from consolidation phases:
Identify squeeze conditions when channel width reaches 100-period lows
Monitor price action for consolidation patterns (triangles, rectangles, flags) during the squeeze
Prepare conditional orders for breakouts in both directions from the consolidation
Enter positions when RSI breaks out of the narrow channel with expanding width
Use the channel width expansion as a confirmation signal for the breakout's validity
Manage risk with stops just inside the opposite channel boundary
Multi-Timeframe Confluence Strategy:
Combining RSI Donchian Channel analysis across multiple timeframes can improve signal reliability:
Identify the primary trend direction using a higher timeframe RSI Donchian Channel (e.g., daily or weekly)
Use a lower timeframe (e.g., 4-hour or hourly) to time precise entry points
Enter long positions when both timeframes show RSI above their respective basis lines
Enter short positions when both timeframes show RSI below their respective basis lines
Avoid trades when timeframes provide conflicting signals (e.g., higher timeframe below basis, lower timeframe above)
Exit when the higher timeframe RSI crosses its basis line in the opposite direction
Risk Management Guidelines:
Effective risk management is essential for all RSI Donchian Channel strategies:
Position Sizing: Calculate position sizes based on the distance between entry point and stop loss, limiting risk to 1-2% of capital per trade
Stop Loss Placement: For breakout trades, place stops just inside the opposite channel boundary; for mean reversion trades, use stops beyond the channel extremes
Profit Targets: Use the basis line as a minimum target for mean reversion trades; for trend trades, target prior swing extremes or use trailing stops
Channel Width Context: Increase position sizes during narrow channels (lower volatility) and reduce sizes during wide channels (higher volatility)
Correlation Awareness: Monitor correlations between traded instruments to avoid over-concentration in similar setups
📋 DETAILED PARAMETER CONFIGURATION
RSI Source:
Defines the price data series used for RSI calculation:
Close (Default): Standard choice providing end-of-period momentum assessment, suitable for most trading styles and timeframes
High-Low Average (HL2): Reduces the impact of closing auction dynamics, useful for markets with significant end-of-day volatility
High-Low-Close Average (HLC3): Provides a more balanced view incorporating the entire period's range
Open-High-Low-Close Average (OHLC4): Offers the most comprehensive price representation, helpful for identifying overall period sentiment
Strategy Consideration: Use Close for end-of-period signals, HL2 or HLC3 for intraday volatility reduction, OHLC4 for capturing full period dynamics
RSI Length:
Controls the number of periods used for RSI calculation:
Short Periods (5-9): Highly responsive to recent price changes, produces more frequent signals with increased false signal risk, suitable for short-term trading and volatile markets
Standard Period (14): Widely accepted default balancing responsiveness with stability, appropriate for swing trading and intermediate-term analysis
Long Periods (21-28): Produces smoother RSI with fewer signals but more reliable trend identification, better for position trading and reducing noise in choppy markets
Optimization Approach: Test different lengths against historical data for your specific market and timeframe, consider using longer periods in ranging markets and shorter periods in trending markets
RSI MA Type:
Determines the smoothing method applied to price changes in RSI calculation:
RMA (Relative Moving Average - Default): Wilder's original smoothing method providing stable momentum measurement with gradual response to changes, maintains consistency with classical RSI interpretation
SMA (Simple Moving Average): Treats all periods equally, responds more quickly to changes than RMA but may produce more whipsaws in volatile conditions
EMA (Exponential Moving Average): Weights recent periods more heavily, increases responsiveness at the cost of potential noise, suitable for traders prioritizing early signal generation
WMA (Weighted Moving Average): Applies linear weighting favoring recent data, offers a middle ground between SMA and EMA responsiveness
Selection Guidance: Maintain RMA for consistency with traditional RSI analysis, use EMA or WMA for more responsive signals in fast-moving markets, apply SMA for maximum simplicity and transparency
DC Length:
Specifies the lookback period for Donchian Channel calculation on RSI values:
Short Periods (10-14): Creates tight channels that adapt quickly to changing momentum conditions, generates more frequent trading signals but increases sensitivity to short-term RSI fluctuations
Standard Period (20): Balances channel responsiveness with stability, aligns with traditional Bollinger Bands and moving average periods, suitable for most trading styles
Long Periods (30-50): Produces wider, more stable channels that better represent sustained momentum extremes, reduces signal frequency while improving reliability, appropriate for position traders and higher timeframes
Calibration Strategy: Match DC length to your trading timeframe (shorter for day trading, longer for swing trading), test channel width behavior during different market regimes, consider using adaptive periods that adjust to volatility conditions
Market Adaptation: Use shorter DC lengths in trending markets to capture momentum shifts earlier, apply longer periods in ranging markets to filter noise and focus on significant extremes
Parameter Combination Recommendations:
Scalping/Day Trading: RSI Length 5-9, DC Length 10-14, EMA or WMA smoothing for maximum responsiveness
Swing Trading: RSI Length 14, DC Length 20, RMA smoothing for balanced analysis (default configuration)
Position Trading: RSI Length 21-28, DC Length 30-50, RMA or SMA smoothing for stable signals
High Volatility Markets: Longer RSI periods (21+) with standard DC length (20) to reduce noise
Low Volatility Markets: Standard RSI length (14) with shorter DC length (10-14) to capture subtle momentum shifts
📈 PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS & COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES
Adaptive Threshold Mechanism:
Unlike traditional RSI analysis with fixed 30/70 thresholds, this indicator's Donchian Channel approach provides several improvements:
Context-Aware Extremes: Overbought/oversold levels adjust automatically based on recent momentum behavior rather than arbitrary fixed values
Volatility Adaptation: In low volatility periods, channels narrow to reflect tighter momentum ranges; in high volatility, channels widen appropriately
Market Regime Recognition: The indicator implicitly adapts to different market conditions without manual threshold adjustments
False Signal Reduction: Adaptive channels help reduce premature reversal signals that often occur with fixed thresholds during strong trends
Signal Quality Characteristics:
The indicator's dual-purpose design provides distinct advantages for different trading objectives:
Breakout Trading: Channel boundaries offer clear, objective breakout levels that update dynamically, eliminating the ambiguity of when momentum becomes "too high" or "too low"
Mean Reversion: The basis line provides a natural profit target for reversion trades, representing the midpoint of recent momentum extremes
Trend Strength: Persistent channel boundary riding offers an objective measure of trend strength without additional indicators
Consolidation Detection: Channel width analysis provides early warning of potential volatility expansion from compression phases
Comparative Analysis:
When compared to traditional RSI implementations and other momentum frameworks:
vs. Fixed Threshold RSI: Provides market-adaptive reference levels rather than static values, helping to reduce false signals during trending markets where RSI can remain "overbought" or "oversold" for extended periods
vs. RSI Bollinger Bands: Offers clearer breakout signals and more intuitive extreme identification through actual high/low boundaries rather than statistical standard deviations
vs. Stochastic Oscillator: Maintains RSI's momentum measurement advantages (unbounded calculation avoiding scale compression) while adding the breakout detection capabilities of Donchian Channels
vs. Standard Donchian Channels: Applies breakout methodology to momentum space rather than price, providing earlier signals of potential trend changes before price breakouts occur
Performance Characteristics:
The indicator exhibits specific behavioral patterns across different market conditions:
Trending Markets: Excels at identifying momentum continuation through channel breakouts, RSI tends to ride one channel boundary during strong trends, providing trend confirmation
Ranging Markets: Channel width narrows during consolidation, offering early preparation signals for potential breakout trading opportunities
High Volatility: Channels widen to reflect increased momentum variability, automatically adjusting signal sensitivity to match market conditions
Low Volatility: Channels contract, making the indicator more sensitive to subtle momentum shifts that may be significant in calm market environments
Transition Periods: Channel squeezes often precede major trend changes, offering advance warning of potential regime shifts
Limitations and Considerations:
Users should be aware of certain operational characteristics:
Lookback Dependency: Channel boundaries depend entirely on the lookback period, meaning the indicator has no predictive element beyond identifying current momentum relative to recent history
Lag Characteristics: As with all moving average-based indicators, RSI calculation introduces lag, and channel boundaries update only as new extremes occur within the lookback window
Range-Bound Sensitivity: In extremely tight ranges, channels may become very narrow, potentially generating excessive signals from minor momentum fluctuations
Trending Persistence: During very strong trends, RSI may remain at channel extremes for extended periods, requiring patience for mean reversion setups or commitment to trend-following approaches
No Absolute Levels: Unlike traditional RSI, this indicator provides no fixed reference points (like 50), making it less suitable for strategies that depend on absolute momentum readings
USAGE NOTES
This indicator is designed for technical analysis and educational purposes to help traders understand momentum dynamics and identify potential trading opportunities. The RSI Donchian Channel has limitations and should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions.
Important considerations:
Performance varies significantly across different market conditions, timeframes, and instruments
Historical signal patterns do not guarantee future results, as market behavior continuously evolves
Effective use requires understanding of both RSI momentum principles and Donchian Channel breakout concepts
Risk management practices (stop losses, position sizing, diversification) are essential for any trading application
Consider combining with additional analytical tools such as volume analysis, price action patterns, or trend indicators for confirmation
Backtest thoroughly on your specific instruments and timeframes before live trading implementation
Be aware that optimization on historical data may lead to curve-fitting and poor forward performance
The indicator performs best when used as part of a comprehensive trading methodology that incorporates multiple forms of market analysis, sound risk management, and realistic expectations about win rates and drawdowns.
Opening Range v3 (Dynamic)Opening Range Signals v3 (Dynamic) - Indicator Guide
Created by: MecarderoAurum
Why This Indicator Exists: An Overview
The "Opening Range Signals" indicator is a sophisticated tool designed for day traders who focus their strategy on the price action that unfolds during the Regular Trading Hours (RTH) of the New York session (09:30 - 16:00 ET). The opening period of the market, often called the "initial balance," is a critical time where institutions and traders establish the early high and low for the day. Trading the breakout of this range is a classic and effective strategy, but it's often plagued by false moves and "head fakes."
This indicator was built to solve that problem. It not only identifies the initial range but also incorporates a powerful dynamic expansion feature. This allows the indicator to intelligently adapt to early session volatility, filter out false breakouts, and establish more reliable support and resistance levels for the rest of the trading day. It provides a clear, visual framework for executing opening range strategies with more confidence.
Key Features & How to Use Them
1. Customizable Opening Range
This is the foundation of the indicator. It draws the high and low of the initial trading period on your chart.
What it does: Establishes the initial support and resistance levels for the day.
How to use it: In the settings under "Time Settings," you can set the "Opening Range Duration" from 1 to 30 minutes. A shorter duration (e.g., 5 minutes) will be more sensitive and give earlier signals, while a longer duration (e.g., 30 minutes) will establish a wider, more robust range.
2. Dynamic Range Expansion
This is the indicator's most powerful and unique feature. It helps you avoid getting trapped in false breakouts.
What it does: If the price breaks out of the initial range but then quickly closes back inside, the indicator will automatically expand the range to include the full wick of the failed breakout. This tells you the market is still establishing its true range.
How to use it: In the settings under "Dynamic Range," you can:
"Enable Dynamic Range Expansion": This is on by default.
"Expansion Time Limit (Min)": Set how long the indicator should look for these failed breakouts. After this time, the range will be locked for the day.
3. Clear Visual Trading Signals
The indicator provides three distinct signals to help you interpret the price action around the opening range.
Breakout Body (Yellow plotshape):
What it means: The first confirmation that the price has decisively moved outside the established range. It appears when a candle's body closes entirely above the high or below the low.
How to use it: This is your alert that a potential breakout is underway. Do not enter yet; wait for confirmation.
Continuation (Green plotshape):
What it means: This signal appears on the candle immediately following a breakout if it shows momentum in the same direction. It confirms that the breakout has strength.
How to use it: This is a potential entry trigger. A continuation signal suggests the breakout is valid and may continue.
Failure (Red plotshape):
What it means: This signal appears if, after a breakout and continuation, the price quickly reverses and closes back inside the range. It's a strong indication of a false breakout.
How to use it: If you are in a breakout trade, a failure signal is a clear sign to exit. It can also be used as a setup for a reversal trade in the opposite direction.
Sample Strategy: The Breakout-Continuation Trade
This strategy uses the indicator's signals to trade a classic opening range breakout with added confirmation.
Setup:
Set the "Opening Range Duration" to your preferred time (e.g., 5 or 15 minutes).
Ensure the "Dynamic Range Expansion" is enabled to filter out early noise.
Entry Trigger:
Wait for a Breakout signal (yellow) to appear. This puts you on high alert.
Wait for a Continuation signal (green) on the very next candle. This is your entry trigger. Enter a long trade on a bullish continuation or a short trade on a bearish continuation.
Stop-Loss:
For a bullish (long) trade, a common stop-loss placement is just below the low of the continuation candle or, for a more conservative stop, just inside the opening range high.
For a bearish (short) trade, place your stop-loss just above the high of the continuation candle or just inside the opening range low.
Trade Management:
If a Failure signal (red) appears after you've entered, it indicates the breakout has failed. This is a strong signal to exit your trade immediately to protect your capital.
If the trade moves in your favor, you can manage it by taking profits at key levels or using a trailing stop.
NY HIGH LOW BREAKNY HIGH LOW BREAK: A New York Session Breakout Strategy
The "NY HIGH LOW BREAK" indicator is a powerful TradingView script designed to identify and capitalize on breakout opportunities during the New York trading session. This strategy focuses on the initial price action of the New York market open, looking for clear breaches of the high or low established within the first 30 minutes. It's particularly suited for intraday traders who seek to capture momentum-driven moves.
Strategy Logic
The core of the "NY HIGH LOW BREAK" strategy revolves around these key components:
New York Session Opening Range Identification:
The script first identifies the opening range of the New York session. This is defined by the high and low prices established during the first 30 minutes of the New York trading session (from 7:01 AM GMT-4 to 7:31 AM GMT-4).
These crucial levels are then extended forward on the chart as horizontal lines, serving as potential support and resistance zones.
Breakout Signal Generation:
Long Signal: A buy signal is generated when the price breaks above the high of the New York opening range. Specifically, it looks for a candle whose open and close are both above the highLinePrice, and importantly, the previous candle's open was below and close was above the highLinePrice. This indicates a strong upward momentum confirming the breakout.
Short Signal: Conversely, a sell signal is generated when the price breaks below the low of the New York opening range. It looks for a candle whose open and close are both below the lowLinePrice, and the previous candle's open was above and close was below the lowLinePrice. This suggests strong downward momentum confirming the breakdown.
Supertrend Filter (Implicit/Future Enhancement):
While the supertrend and direction variables are present in the code, they are not actively used in the current signal generation logic. This suggests a potential future enhancement where the Supertrend indicator could be incorporated as a trend filter to confirm breakout directions, adding an extra layer of confluence to the signals. For example, only taking long breakouts when Supertrend indicates an uptrend, and short breakouts when Supertrend indicates a downtrend.
Second Candle Confirmation (Possible Future Enhancement):
The close_sec_candle function and openSEC, closeSEC variables indicate an attempt to capture the open and close of a "second candle" (30 minutes after the initial New York open). Currently, closeSEC is used in a specific condition for signal_way but not directly in the primary longSignal or shortSignal logic. This also suggests a potential future refinement where the price action of this second candle could be used for further confirmation or specific entry criteria.
Time-Based Filtering:
Signals are only considered valid within a specific trading window from 8:00 AM GMT-4 to 8:00 AM GMT-4 + 16 * 30 minutes (which is 480 minutes, or 8 hours) on 1-minute and 5-minute timeframes. This ensures that trades are taken during the most active and volatile periods of the New York session, avoiding late-session chop.
The script also highlights the New York session and lunch hours using background colors, providing visual context to the trading day.
Key Features
Automated New York Open Range Detection: The script automatically identifies and plots the high and low of the first 30 minutes of the New York trading session.
Clear Breakout Signals: Visually distinct "BUY" and "SELL" labels appear on the chart when a breakout occurs, making it easy to spot trading opportunities.
Timeframe Adaptability: While optimized for 1-minute and 5-minute timeframes for signal generation, the opening range lines can be displayed on various timeframes.
Customizable Risk-to-Reward (RR): The rr input allows users to define their preferred risk-to-reward ratio for potential trades, although it's not directly implemented in the current signal or trade management logic. This could be used by traders for manual trade management.
Visual Session and Lunch Highlights: The script colors the background to clearly delineate the New York trading session and the lunch break, helping traders understand the market context.
How to Use
Apply the Indicator: Add the "NY HIGH LOW BREAK" indicator to your chart on TradingView.
Select a Relevant Timeframe: For optimal signal generation, use 1-minute or 5-minute timeframes.
Observe the Opening Range: The green and red lines represent the high and low of the first 30 minutes of the New York session.
Look for Breakouts: Wait for price to decisively break above the green line (for a buy) or below the red line (for a sell).
Confirm Signals: The "BUY" or "SELL" labels will appear on the chart when the breakout conditions are met within the active trading window.
Implement Your Risk Management: Use your preferred risk management techniques, including stop-loss and take-profit levels, in conjunction with the signals generated. The rr input can guide your manual risk-to-reward calculations.
Potential Enhancements & Considerations
Supertrend Confirmation: Integrating the supertrend variable to filter signals would significantly enhance the strategy's robustness by aligning trades with the prevailing trend.
Stop-Loss and Take-Profit Automation: The rr input currently serves as a manual guide. Future versions could integrate automated stop-loss and take-profit placement based on this ratio, potentially using ATR for dynamic sizing.
Volume Confirmation: Adding a volume filter to confirm breakouts would ensure that only high-conviction moves are traded.
Backtesting and Optimization: Thorough backtesting across various assets and market conditions is crucial to determine the optimal settings and profitability of this strategy.
Session Times: The current session times are hardcoded. Making these user-definable inputs would allow for greater flexibility across different time zones and trading preferences.
The "NY HIGH LOW BREAK" is a straightforward yet effective strategy for capturing initial New York session momentum. By focusing on clear breakout levels, it aims to provide timely and actionable trading signals for intraday traders.

Eze Profit Range Detection FilterThe Range Detection Filter is a technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify range-bound market conditions and focus on breakout opportunities. It combines the ATR (Average True Range) for volatility analysis and the ADX (Average Directional Index) for trend strength evaluation to highlight consolidation phases and alert traders when the market is ready to break out.
This indicator provides visual cues and customizable alerts, making it suitable for traders looking to avoid false signals during choppy markets and capitalize on trending moves following a breakout.
What Makes It Unique?
ATR for Volatility:
Measures market volatility by comparing ATR with its moving average.
Consolidation phases are flagged when ATR remains below its moving average for a sustained period.
ADX for Trend Strength:
Monitors trend strength, confirming range-bound conditions when ADX falls below a user-defined threshold (default: 20).
Combines with ATR to ensure accurate detection of trendless periods.
Breakout Alerts:
Notifies traders of breakout opportunities when the price moves outside the highest high or lowest low of the range.
How It Works:
Range Detection:
The market is considered "in range" when:
ATR is below its moving average, indicating low volatility.
ADX is below the threshold, confirming a lack of trend strength.
Visual Indication:
A yellow background highlights range-bound conditions, allowing traders to avoid low-probability trades.
Breakout Detection:
Alerts are triggered for breakouts above or below the range to help traders identify potential opportunities.
Features:
Range Highlighting:
Automatically detects and highlights range-bound markets using a yellow background.
Breakout Alerts:
Sends alerts for breakouts above or below the range once the market exits consolidation.
Customizable Inputs:
ATR length, moving average length, and ADX parameters are fully adjustable to adapt to various trading styles and asset classes.
Multi-Timeframe Compatibility:
Suitable for all markets and timeframes, including stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies.
How to Use:
Identify Ranges:
Avoid trading when the yellow background appears, signaling a range-bound market.
Focus on Breakouts:
Look for alerts indicating breakouts above or below the range for potential trending opportunities.
Combine with Other Indicators:
Use volume analysis, momentum oscillators, or candlestick patterns to confirm breakout signals.
Credits:
This script utilizes widely accepted methodologies for ATR and ADX calculations. ADX is calculated manually using directional movement (+DI and -DI) for precise trend detection. The concept has been adapted and enhanced to create this comprehensive range-detection tool.
Notes:
This indicator is intended for educational purposes and should not be used as standalone financial advice.
Always incorporate this tool into a broader trading strategy for optimal results.
Bollinger Band Squeeze with Dotted MidlinesBollinger Band Squeeze with Dotted Midlines
Overview:
The Bollinger Band Squeeze with Dotted Midlines indicator is a powerful tool designed to identify periods of low volatility in the market, known as "squeeze" conditions, which often precede significant price movements. By combining Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels, this indicator highlights when the market is consolidating and prepares traders for potential breakouts.
Key Features:
• Squeeze Detection: The indicator fills the area between the Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels with a semi-transparent red color when both the upper and lower Bollinger Bands are within the Keltner Channels. This visual cue signifies a squeeze condition.
• Dynamic Color Filling: When the Bollinger Bands move outside the Keltner Channels, the fill color changes to a semi-transparent white, indicating the end of the squeeze and the potential start of increased volatility.
• Enhanced Visual Clarity:
o Upper and Lower Bands: The upper and lower lines of both the Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels are plotted with increased thickness (3pt) for better visibility.
o Midlines with Dotted Effect: The middle lines (50% lines) for both the Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels are plotted as dotted lines using circles with a thinner line width (1pt), providing a clear yet unobtrusive reference point.
Indicator Components:
1. Bollinger Bands (Orange Lines):
o Upper Bollinger Band: Calculated as the moving average plus a multiple of the standard deviation.
o Lower Bollinger Band: Calculated as the moving average minus a multiple of the standard deviation.
o Middle Bollinger Band: The simple moving average (SMA) of the closing price.
2. Keltner Channels (White Lines):
o Upper Keltner Channel: Calculated as the exponential moving average (EMA) plus a multiple of the average true range (ATR).
o Lower Keltner Channel: Calculated as the EMA minus a multiple of the ATR.
o Middle Keltner Channel: The EMA of the closing price.
3. Squeeze Condition Fill:
o Red Fill (40% Opacity): Indicates a squeeze condition where the Bollinger Bands are entirely within the Keltner Channels.
o White Fill (40% Opacity): Indicates normal market conditions where the Bollinger Bands have moved outside the Keltner Channels.
How to Use:
1. Identifying Squeeze Conditions:
o Look for Red Filled Areas: When you see the area between the Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels filled in semi-transparent red, it signals a squeeze condition. This means the market is experiencing low volatility and may be preparing for a significant move.
2. Preparing for Potential Breakouts:
o Monitor for Fill Color Changes: A transition from red to white fill suggests that the squeeze is ending, and volatility is increasing. Traders often interpret this as a potential opportunity for a breakout in either direction.
3. Utilizing Midlines:
o Reference Midlines for Trend Direction: The dotted midlines provide insight into the overall trend. Crossing of the price above or below these lines can offer additional confirmation for trading decisions.
Customization Options:
• Bollinger Bands Settings:
o Length: Default is 20 periods. Adjust to change the sensitivity of the bands.
o Multiplier: Default is 2.0. Modify to increase or decrease the band width based on standard deviation.
• Keltner Channels Settings:
o Length: Default is 20 periods. Alter to adjust the responsiveness of the channels.
o Multiplier: Default is 1.5. Change to widen or narrow the channels based on average true range.
Advantages:
• Visual Clarity: Enhanced line thickness and semi-transparent fills make it easy to spot key market conditions at a glance.
• Early Warning System: By identifying squeeze conditions, traders can anticipate potential breakouts and plan their strategies accordingly.
• Flexible Application: Suitable for various timeframes and trading styles, including day trading, swing trading, and position trading.
Limitations:
• False Signals: Like all technical indicators, it may produce false signals, especially in choppy or range-bound markets.
• Should Be Used with Other Indicators: For better accuracy, it's recommended to use this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and not as a standalone signal generator.
Conclusion:
The Bollinger Band Squeeze with Dotted Midlines indicator is a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit. By effectively highlighting periods of consolidation and potential breakout points, it aids in making informed trading decisions. The visual enhancements improve usability, allowing traders to quickly interpret market conditions and respond appropriately.
ORB Algo | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new ORB Algo indicator! ORB stands for "Opening Range Breakout" which is a common trading strategy. The indicator can analyze the market trend in the current session and give "Buy / Sell", "Take Profit" and "Stop Loss" signals. For more information about the analyzing process of the indicator, you can read "How Does It Work ?" section of the description.
Features of the new ORB Algo indicator :
Buy & Sell Signals
Up To 3 Take Profit Signals
Stop-Loss Signals
Alerts for Buy / Sell, Take-Profit and Stop-Loss
Customizable Algoritm
Session Dashboard
Backtesting Dashboard
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
This indicator works best in 1-minute timeframe. The idea is that the trend of the current session can be forecasted by analyzing the market for a while after the session starts. However, each market has it's own dynamics and the algorithm will need fine-tuning to get the best performance possible. So, we've implemented a "Backtesting Dashboard" that shows the past performance of the algorithm in the current ticker with your current settings. Always keep in mind that past performance does not guarantee future results.
Here are the steps of the algorithm explained briefly :
1. The algorithm follows and analyzes the first 30 minutes (can be adjusted) of the session.
2. Then, algorithm checks for breakouts of the opening range's high or low.
3. If a breakout happens in a bullish or a bearish direction, the algorithm will now check for retests of the breakout. Depending on the sensitivity setting, there must be 0 / 1 / 2 / 3 failed retests for the breakout to be considered as reliable.
4. If the breakout is reliable, the algorithm will give an entry signal.
5. After the position entry, algorithm will now wait for Take-Profit or Stop-Loss zones and signal if any of them occur.
If you wonder how does the indicator find Take-Profit & Stop-Loss zones, you can check the "Settings" section of the description.
🚩UNIQUENESS
While there are indicators that show the opening range of the session, they come short with features like indicating breakouts, entries, and Take-Profit & Stop-Loss zones. We are also aware of that different stock markets have different dynamics, and tuning the algorithm for different markets is really important for better results, so we decided to make the algorithm fully customizable. Besides all that, our indicator contains a detailed backtesting dashboard, so you can see past performance of the algorithm in the current ticker. While past performance does not yield any guarantee for future results, we believe that a backtesting dashboard is necessary for tuning the algorithm. Another strength of this indicator is that there are multiple options for detection of Take-Profit and Stop-Loss zones, which the trader can select one of their liking.
⚙️SETTINGS
Keep in mind that best chart timeframe for this indicator to work is the 1-minute timeframe.
TP = Take-Profit
SL = Stop-Loss
EMA = Exponential Moving Average
OR = Opening Range
ATR = Average True Range
1. Algorithm
ORB Timeframe -> This setting determines the timeframe that the algorithm will analyze the market after a new session begins before giving any signals. It's important to experiment with this setting and find the best option that suits the current ticker for the best performance. More volatile stocks will often require this setting to be larger, while more stabilized stocks may have this setting shorter.
Sensitivity -> This setting determines how much failed retests are needed to take a position entry. Higher senstivity means that less retests are needed to consider the breakout as reliable. If you think that the current ticker makes strong movements in a bullish & bearish direction after a breakout, you should set this setting higher. If you think the opposite, meaning that the ticker does not decide the trend right after a breakout, this setting show be lower.
(High = 0 Retests, Medium = 1 Retest, Low = 2 Retests, Lowest = 3 Retests)
Breakout Condition -> The condition for the algorithm to detect breakouts.
Close = Bar needs to close higher than the OR High Line in a bullish breakout, or lower than the OR Low Line in a bearish breakout. EMA = The EMA of the bar must be higher / lower than OR Lines instead of the close price.
TP Method -> The method for the algorithm to use when determining TP zones.
Dynamic = This TP method essentially tries to find the bar that price starts declining the current trend and going to the other direction, and puts a TP zone there. To achieve this, it uses an EMA line, and when the close price of a bar crosses the EMA line, It's a TP spot.
ATR = In this TP method, instead of a dynamic approach the TP zones are pre-determined using the ATR of the entry bar. This option is generally for traders who just want to know their TP spots beforehand while trading. Selecting this option will also show TP zones at the ORB Dashboard.
"Dynamic" option generally performs better, while the "ATR" method is safer to use.
EMA Length -> This setting determines the length of the EMA line used in "Dynamic TP method" and "EMA Breakout Condition". This is completely up to the trader's choice, though the default option should generally perform well. You might want to experiment with this setting and find the optimal length for the current ticker.
Stop-Loss -> Algorithm will place the Stop-Loss zone using setting.
Safer = The SL zone will be placed closer to the OR High for a bullish entry, and closer to the OR Low for a bearish entry.
Balanced = The SL zone will be placed in the center of OR High & OR Low
Risky = The SL zone will be placed closer to the OR Low for a bullish entry, and closer to the OR High for a bearish entry.
Adaptive SL -> This option only takes effect if the first TP zone is hit.
Enabled = After the 1st TP zone is hit, the SL zone will be moved to the entry price, essentially making the position risk-free.
Disabled = The SL zone will never change.

For example, %90, %5, %5 means that %90 of the position will be closed at the first TP zone, %5 of it will be closed at the 2nd TP zone, and %5 of it will be closed at the last TP zone.
Latent Energy Reactor [The_lurker]Latent Energy Reactor | مفاعل الطاقة الكامنة
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🔬 THE PHILOSOPHY
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Markets operate in cycles of compression and expansion. Before every significant price movement, there exists a period where buyers and sellers reach a temporary equilibrium — a consolidation zone where energy accumulates like pressure building in a reactor.
The Latent Energy Reactor was designed to identify these critical zones, measure the energy building within them, and predict the direction of the inevitable breakout.
This indicator transforms the abstract concept of "market energy" into a quantifiable, visual system that traders can use to anticipate high-probability breakout opportunities.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🎯 THE THREE BOX STATES
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Understanding the three box states is crucial for proper interpretation:
📦 STATE 1: ACTIVE ZONE (GRAY BOX)
─────────────────────────────────────
Visual Characteristics:
• Color: Gray/Neutral with 3D depth effect
• Extends to the right edge of the chart (future projection)
• Contains pressure lines (dotted horizontal lines inside)
• Displays gravity center line (dashed line showing volume-weighted center)
• Energy progress bar beneath the box
• Real-time information panel appears on screen
What It Means:
The gray box represents a LIVE consolidation zone currently forming. Price is contained within the boundaries, and energy is actively accumulating. This is the "waiting phase" where the reactor is charging.
What to Watch:
• Energy percentage climbing toward critical levels (80%+)
• Gravity center position (upper half = bullish bias, lower half = bearish bias)
• Top and bottom rejection counts in the information panel
• Phase progression (Forming → Growth → Mature → Exhaustion)
Trading Approach:
Do NOT trade inside the gray box. This is the preparation phase. Monitor the energy levels and predicted direction, but wait for confirmation.
📦 STATE 2: BULLISH BREAKOUT BOX (GREEN BOX)
─────────────────────────────────────────────
Visual Characteristics:
• Color: Green with 3D depth effect
• Box boundaries are now fixed (no longer extending right)
• Displays "BUY" text centered inside the box
• Stop Loss line appears below the box (orange)
• Three Take Profit lines appear above (teal/cyan)
• Entry line at the box's upper boundary (white dashed)
What It Means:
The green box indicates a CONFIRMED bullish breakout. Price has broken above the consolidation zone's upper boundary, releasing the accumulated energy upward.
Automatic Calculations Displayed:
• Entry Price: Upper boundary of the box
• Stop Loss: Lower boundary minus ATR buffer
• TP1: Entry + (Risk × 1.0) — 1:1 reward ratio
• TP2: Entry + (Risk × 1.5) — 1.5:1 reward ratio
• TP3: Entry + (Risk × 2.0) — 2:1 reward ratio
Trading Approach:
Consider long positions with the displayed SL/TP levels as guidelines. The higher the energy level and breakout quality score were before the breakout, the more reliable the signal.
📦 STATE 3: BEARISH BREAKOUT BOX (RED BOX)
──────────────────────────────────────────
Visual Characteristics:
• Color: Red with 3D depth effect
• Box boundaries are now fixed
• Displays "SELL" text centered inside the box
• Stop Loss line appears above the box (orange)
• Three Take Profit lines appear below (teal/cyan)
• Entry line at the box's lower boundary (white dashed)
What It Means:
The red box indicates a CONFIRMED bearish breakout. Price has broken below the consolidation zone's lower boundary, releasing the accumulated energy downward.
Automatic Calculations Displayed:
• Entry Price: Lower boundary of the box
• Stop Loss: Upper boundary plus ATR buffer
• TP1: Entry - (Risk × 1.0) — 1:1 reward ratio
• TP2: Entry - (Risk × 1.5) — 1.5:1 reward ratio
• TP3: Entry - (Risk × 2.0) — 2:1 reward ratio
Trading Approach:
Consider short positions with the displayed SL/TP levels as guidelines. Stronger setups have higher pre-breakout energy and quality scores.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
⚛️ THE ENERGY CALCULATION SYSTEM
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
The energy percentage (0-100%) is calculated using four factors:
Compression Score (up to 40 points)
Measures how tight the range is relative to normal volatility (ATR). Tighter compression = higher energy storage.
Time Score (up to 35 points)
Longer consolidation periods accumulate more energy. Each bar adds to the score up to the maximum.
Maturity Bonus (up to 15 points)
Zones that reach mature phases receive bonus energy points, recognizing that extended consolidations often produce more powerful breakouts.
Tightness Bonus (up to 10 points)
Extra points awarded when the range height is exceptionally small relative to ATR.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
📊 THE GRAVITY CENTER SYSTEM
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
How It Works:
The gravity center is the volume-weighted average price within the consolidation zone. It reveals where the majority of trading activity (and thus institutional interest) is concentrated.
Interpretation:
• Gravity center in UPPER half → Institutions accumulating → Bullish bias
• Gravity center in LOWER half → Institutions distributing → Bearish bias
• Gravity center at MIDDLE → Neutral/Uncertain
Visual Display:
A dashed line with a ⚖️ symbol marks the gravity center inside active zones. The line color matches the directional bias.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🏦 INSTITUTIONAL FOOTPRINT DETECTION
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
What It Measures:
The indicator scans for volume anomalies — bars where volume significantly exceeds the average while price remains contained within the zone.
Why It Matters:
Large volume without price movement often indicates institutional players building positions. They cannot accumulate or distribute large quantities without leaving a "footprint" in the volume data.
Score Interpretation:
• Below 30%: Normal retail activity
• 30-50%: Some institutional interest detected
• Above 50%: Significant institutional footprint (marked with 🏦 icon)
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
📈 MATURITY PHASES
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
⚒ Forming Phase
The zone has just been identified. Energy is low, and the pattern needs more time to develop. Premature breakouts during this phase have higher failure rates.
📈 Growth Phase
The zone is developing nicely. Energy is building, and the consolidation pattern is becoming more defined. Watch for increasing rejection counts at boundaries.
✅ Mature Phase
Optimal trading phase. The zone has accumulated significant energy, institutional footprints are often visible, and breakout quality scores are typically highest.
⚠ Exhaustion Phase
The zone has persisted beyond typical duration. While energy remains high, the pattern may be losing its predictive power.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🎨 VISUAL ELEMENTS GUIDE
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
3D Box Effect
The 3D rendering creates visual depth with a top face and side face, making boxes stand out clearly. Adjustable via "3D Depth" and "3D Height %" settings.
Pressure Lines
Dotted horizontal lines inside active zones visualize internal pressure distribution. Lines closer to the gravity center are more opaque.
Energy Progress Bar
A horizontal bar beneath each zone shows energy level visually. Color progresses: green (low) → yellow (moderate) → orange (high) → red (critical).
Imminent Breakout Warning
When energy reaches critical threshold (default 80%), a warning label "⚠ IMMINENT!" appears above the active zone.

مفاعل الطاقة الكامنة | Latent Energy Reactor
🔬 الفلسفة
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
تعمل الأسواق في دورات من الضغط والتمدد. قبل كل حركة سعرية كبيرة، توجد فترة يصل فيها المشترون والبائعون إلى توازن مؤقت — منطقة تجميع حيث تتراكم الطاقة مثل الضغط المتراكم في مفاعل.
صُمم مفاعل الطاقة الكامنة لتحديد هذه المناطق الحرجة، وقياس الطاقة المتراكمة داخلها، والتنبؤ باتجاه الاختراق الحتمي.
يحوّل هذا المؤشر المفهوم المجرد لـ "طاقة السوق" إلى نظام قابل للقياس والعرض البصري يمكن للمتداولين استخدامه لتوقع فرص الاختراق عالية الاحتمالية.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🎯 حالات الصندوق الثلاث
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
فهم حالات الصندوق الثلاث ضروري للتفسير الصحيح:
📦 الحالة الأولى: المنطقة النشطة (الصندوق الرمادي)
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────
الخصائص البصرية:
• اللون: رمادي/محايد مع تأثير عمق ثلاثي الأبعاد
• يمتد إلى الحافة اليمنى للرسم البياني (إسقاط مستقبلي)
• يحتوي على خطوط الضغط (خطوط أفقية منقطة بالداخل)
• يعرض خط مركز الثقل (خط متقطع يُظهر المركز المرجح بالحجم)
• شريط تقدم الطاقة أسفل الصندوق
• تظهر لوحة المعلومات الفورية على الشاشة
ماذا يعني:
الصندوق الرمادي يمثل منطقة تجميع حَيّة تتشكل حالياً. السعر محتوى داخل الحدود، والطاقة تتراكم بنشاط. هذه هي "مرحلة الانتظار" حيث المفاعل يشحن.
ما يجب مراقبته:
• نسبة الطاقة تصعد نحو المستويات الحرجة (80%+)
• موقع مركز الثقل (النصف العلوي = ميل صعودي، النصف السفلي = ميل هبوطي)
• عدد الرفض العلوي والسفلي في لوحة المعلومات
• تقدم المرحلة (تشكّل ← نمو ← نضج ← إرهاق)
نهج التداول:
لا تتداول داخل الصندوق الرمادي. هذه مرحلة الإعداد. راقب مستويات الطاقة والاتجاه المتوقع، لكن انتظر التأكيد.
📦 الحالة الثانية: صندوق الاختراق الصعودي (الصندوق الأخضر)
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
الخصائص البصرية:
• اللون: أخضر مع تأثير عمق ثلاثي الأبعاد
• حدود الصندوق ثابتة الآن (لم تعد تمتد لليمين)
• يعرض نص "شراء" أو "BUY" في منتصف الصندوق
• يظهر خط وقف الخسارة أسفل الصندوق (برتقالي)
• تظهر ثلاثة خطوط أهداف فوق الصندوق (فيروزي)
• خط الدخول عند الحد العلوي للصندوق (أبيض متقطع)
ماذا يعني:
الصندوق الأخضر يشير إلى اختراق صعودي مُؤَكَّد. كسر السعر فوق الحد العلوي لمنطقة التجميع، محرراً الطاقة المتراكمة للأعلى.
الحسابات التلقائية المعروضة:
• سعر الدخول: الحد العلوي للصندوق
• وقف الخسارة: الحد السفلي ناقص حاجز ATR
• الهدف 1: الدخول + (المخاطرة × 1.0) — نسبة مكافأة 1:1
• الهدف 2: الدخول + (المخاطرة × 1.5) — نسبة مكافأة 1.5:1
• الهدف 3: الدخول + (المخاطرة × 2.0) — نسبة مكافأة 2:1
نهج التداول:
فكر في صفقات شراء مع مستويات وقف الخسارة والأهداف المعروضة كإرشادات. كلما ارتفع مستوى الطاقة ودرجة جودة الاختراق قبل الكسر، كانت الإشارة أكثر موثوقية.
📦 الحالة الثالثة: صندوق الاختراق الهبوطي (الصندوق الأحمر)
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
الخصائص البصرية:
• اللون: أحمر مع تأثير عمق ثلاثي الأبعاد
• حدود الصندوق ثابتة الآن
• يعرض نص "بيع" أو "SELL" في منتصف الصندوق
• يظهر خط وقف الخسارة فوق الصندوق (برتقالي)
• تظهر ثلاثة خطوط أهداف أسفل الصندوق (فيروزي)
• خط الدخول عند الحد السفلي للصندوق (أبيض متقطع)
ماذا يعني:
الصندوق الأحمر يشير إلى اختراق هبوطي مُؤَكَّد. كسر السعر تحت الحد السفلي لمنطقة التجميع، محرراً الطاقة المتراكمة للأسفل.
الحسابات التلقائية المعروضة:
• سعر الدخول: الحد السفلي للصندوق
• وقف الخسارة: الحد العلوي زائد حاجز ATR
• الهدف 1: الدخول - (المخاطرة × 1.0) — نسبة مكافأة 1:1
• الهدف 2: الدخول - (المخاطرة × 1.5) — نسبة مكافأة 1.5:1
• الهدف 3: الدخول - (المخاطرة × 2.0) — نسبة مكافأة 2:1
نهج التداول:
فكر في صفقات بيع مع مستويات وقف الخسارة والأهداف المعروضة كإرشادات. الإعدادات الأقوى لديها طاقة ودرجات جودة أعلى قبل الاختراق.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
⚛️ نظام حساب الطاقة
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
تُحسب نسبة الطاقة (0-100%) باستخدام أربعة عوامل:
درجة الضغط (حتى 40 نقطة)
تقيس مدى ضيق النطاق نسبة للتقلب الطبيعي (ATR). ضغط أشد = تخزين طاقة أعلى.
درجة الوقت (حتى 35 نقطة)
فترات التجميع الأطول تراكم طاقة أكثر. كل شمعة تضيف للدرجة حتى الحد الأقصى.
مكافأة النضج (حتى 15 نقطة)
المناطق التي تصل لمراحل النضج تحصل على نقاط طاقة إضافية، اعترافاً بأن التجميعات الممتدة غالباً تنتج اختراقات أقوى.
مكافأة الضيق (حتى 10 نقاط)
نقاط إضافية تُمنح عندما يكون ارتفاع النطاق صغيراً استثنائياً نسبة لـ ATR.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
📊 نظام مركز الثقل
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
كيف يعمل:
مركز الثقل هو متوسط السعر المرجح بالحجم داخل منطقة التجميع. يكشف أين يتركز معظم النشاط التداولي (وبالتالي الاهتمام المؤسسي).
التفسير:
• مركز الثقل في النصف العلوي ← المؤسسات تجمّع ← ميل صعودي
• مركز الثقل في النصف السفلي ← المؤسسات توزّع ← ميل هبوطي
• مركز الثقل في المنتصف ← محايد/غير مؤكد
العرض البصري:
خط متقطع مع رمز ⚖️ يحدد مركز الثقل داخل المناطق النشطة. لون الخط يطابق الميل الاتجاهي.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🏦 كشف البصمة المؤسسية
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
ما يقيسه:
يفحص المؤشر الشذوذات الحجمية — شموع حجمها يتجاوز المتوسط بشكل كبير بينما يبقى السعر محتوى داخل المنطقة.
لماذا هذا مهم:
الحجم الكبير بدون حركة سعرية غالباً يشير إلى لاعبين مؤسسيين يبنون مراكز. لا يمكنهم تجميع أو توزيع كميات كبيرة بدون ترك "بصمة" في بيانات الحجم.
تفسير الدرجة:
• أقل من 30%: نشاط تجزئة عادي
• 30-50%: بعض الاهتمام المؤسسي مكتشف
• فوق 50%: بصمة مؤسسية كبيرة (تُحدد بأيقونة 🏦)
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
📈 مراحل النضج
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
⚒ مرحلة التشكّل
المنطقة تم تحديدها للتو. الطاقة منخفضة، والنمط يحتاج وقتاً أكثر للتطور. الاختراقات المبكرة خلال هذه المرحلة لديها معدلات فشل أعلى.
📈 مرحلة النمو
المنطقة تتطور بشكل جيد. الطاقة تتراكم، ونمط التجميع يصبح أكثر تحديداً. راقب زيادة عدد الرفض عند الحدود.
✅ مرحلة النضج
مرحلة التداول المثلى. المنطقة راكمت طاقة كبيرة، البصمات المؤسسية غالباً مرئية، ودرجات جودة الاختراق عادة في أعلى مستوياتها.
⚠ مرحلة الإرهاق
المنطقة استمرت أطول من المدة النموذجية. بينما تبقى الطاقة مرتفعة، قد يفقد النمط قوته التنبؤية.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🎨 دليل العناصر البصرية
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
تأثير الصندوق ثلاثي الأبعاد
العرض ثلاثي الأبعاد يخلق عمقاً بصرياً مع وجه علوي ووجه جانبي، مما يجعل الصناديق بارزة بوضوح. قابل للتعديل عبر إعدادات "عمق 3D" و"ارتفاع 3D %".
خطوط الضغط
خطوط أفقية منقطة داخل المناطق النشطة تصور توزيع الضغط الداخلي. الخطوط الأقرب لمركز الثقل أكثر وضوحاً.
شريط تقدم الطاقة
شريط أفقي أسفل كل منطقة يُظهر مستوى الطاقة بصرياً. اللون يتدرج: أخضر (منخفض) ← أصفر (متوسط) ← برتقالي (مرتفع) ← أحمر (حرج).
تحذير الاختراق الوشيك
عندما تصل الطاقة للعتبة الحرجة (افتراضياً 80%)، يظهر تحذير "⚠ كسر وشيك!" فوق المنطقة النشطة.
لوحة المعلومات
جدول فوري يعرض: مستوى الطاقة، المرحلة، التوقع، جودة الاختراق، البصمة المؤسسية، الرفض العلوي/السفلي.

Darvas Lines/Box1. Overview
The Darvas Lines/Box (v1.0) is a dynamic trend following indicator based on the renowned method developed by Nicolas Darvas. It's designed to identify clear price consolidation ranges and detect decisive breakouts, crucial for positional and swing trading strategies.
This indicator automatically draws and adjusts the consolidation ranges, and includes modern enhancements such as Advanced Retest Confirmation and exposed alert conditions, providing reliable signals for monitoring and acting on trend continuations.
2. Core Features
Custom Display Mode (Lines/Box): Allows the user to toggle the visualization between showing just the Breakout Lines (Lines) or displaying the consolidation area with a filled background box (Box).
Source Selection (Wicks/Body): Users can choose whether the box boundaries are defined by the candlestick wicks (price extremes) or the candlestick body (open/close price). This feature is critical for adjusting sensitivity to market noise.
Dynamic Box Drawing: Draws Darvas boxes automatically by tracking price highs and lows based on user-defined parameters (Bars to Define Range, Max Box Height).
Retest Confirmation: Detects if the old resistance/support line functions effectively after a breakout. When a retest is confirmed, the line is extended and its color changes.
Price Labels (Stable Lock): Displays the highest and lowest box prices, fixed to the left outer edge of the box. This ensures stable visibility.
Progress Labels: Visualizes the current line price and the percentage distance to the closing price on the right side of the box, showing progress toward the next breakout.
3. Trading Strategy: How to Use the Indicator
This indicator is primarily used to identify trend initiation and trend continuation signals.
A. Entry Strategy (Breakout)
Long Entry Action: Consider taking a long entry when the price closes above the Upper Line (Green Line), signaled by a BULLISH BREAKOUT alert.
Signal: Use the BULLISH BREAKOUT alert.
Short Entry Action: Consider taking a short entry when the price closes below the Lower Line (Red Line), signaled by a BEARISH BREAKOUT alert.
Signal: Use the BEARISH BREAKOUT alert.
B. Retest Strategy (Add-on/Confirmation)
Action: When the price pulls back to touch the broken line (signaled by RETEST CONFIRMED), this confirms the break's validity.
Alert: The RETEST CONFIRMED alert is triggered at this moment.
C. Risk Management (General)
Stop Loss: The initial stop-loss is typically set just beyond the opposite side of the broken box. As the trend progresses and new boxes form, the lower boundary of the most recently formed box can be used as a trailing stop for managing risk.
4. Setting Parameters
Line Source (Wicks/Body): Crucial for sensitivity. 'Wicks' tracks price extremes; 'Body' tracks stronger close-to-close movements, ignoring noise.
Bars to Define Range: Defines the calculation period (in bars) for the box.
Cooldown Bars After Breakout: Sets the waiting period after a breakout before a new box can start forming.
Retest Lookback Bars (Phase 3): Sets the maximum number of bars to check for a retest during the cooldown phase.
Max Gap for Retest (%): Defines the maximum percentage distance from the line allowed to confirm a retest (Set to Zero (0.0%) for near-touch detection).
Alert Frequency (Breakout): Allows selection between Continuous and Once per Box for breakout signals.
5. Alerts: How to Set Up the Triggers
This indicator exposes several specific conditions to the TradingView alert panel, allowing you to select the exact event you want to monitor.
Step-by-Step Alert Setup:
Open the Alert Panel on the chart.
In the Condition field, select the indicator's name.
In the Alert Condition field, choose the specific event you want to monitor:
1. ANY DARVAS EVENT (Consolidated)
2. BULLISH BREAKOUT (Individual)
3. BEARISH BREAKOUT (Individual)
4. RETEST CONFIRMED (Individual)
In the Trigger field (Frequency), select your preferred native option (e.g., "Once Per Bar Close" or "Once per bar").
RSI Trendlines and Divergences█OVERVIEW
The "RSI Trendlines and Divergences" indicator is an advanced technical analysis tool that leverages the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to draw trendlines and detect divergences. Designed for traders seeking precise market signals, the indicator identifies key pivot points on the RSI chart, draws trendlines between pivots, and detects bullish and bearish divergences. It offers flexible settings, background coloring for breakout signals, and divergence labels, supported by alerts for key events. The indicator is universal and works across all markets (stocks, forex, cryptocurrencies) and timeframes.
█CONCEPTS
The indicator was developed to provide an alternative signal source for the RSI oscillator. Trendline breakouts and bounces off trendlines offer a broader perspective on potential price behavior. Combining these with traditional RSI signal interpretation can serve as a foundation for creating various trading strategies.
█FEATURES
- RSI and Pivot Calculation: Calculates RSI based on the selected source price (default: close) with a customizable period (default: 14). Identifies pivot points on RSI and price for trendlines and divergences.
- RSI Trendlines: Draws trendlines connecting RSI pivots (upper for downtrends, lower for uptrends) with optional extension (default: 30 bars). The trendline appears and generates a signal only after the first RSI crossover. Lines are colored (red for upper, green for lower).
- Trendline Fill: Widens the trendline with a tolerance margin expressed in RSI points, reducing signal noise and visually highlighting trend zones. Breaking this zone is a condition for generating signals, minimizing false signals. The tolerance margin can be increased or decreased.
- Divergence Detection: Identifies bullish and bearish divergences based on RSI and price pivots, displaying labels (“Bull” for bullish, “Bear” for bearish) with adjustable transparency. Divergence labels appear with a delay equal to the specified pivot length (default: 5). Higher values yield stronger signals but with greater delay.
- Breakout Signals: Generates signals when RSI crosses the trendline (bullish for upper lines, bearish for lower lines), with background coloring for signal confirmation.
- Alerts: Built-in alerts for:
Detection of bullish and bearish divergences.
Upper trendline crossover (bullish signal).
Lower trendline crossover (bearish signal).
- Customization: Allows adjustment of RSI length, pivot settings, line colors, fills, labels, and transparency of signals and background.
█HOW TO USE
Add the indicator to your TradingView chart via the Pine Editor or Indicators menu.
Configuring Settings.
RSI Settings
- RSI Length: Period for RSI calculation (default: 14).
- SMA Length: Period for RSI moving average (default: 9).
- Source: Source price for RSI (default: close).
Pivot Settings for Trend
- Left Bars for Pivot: Number of bars back for detecting pivots (default: 10).
- Right Bars for Pivot: Number of bars forward for confirming pivots (default: 10).
- Extension after Second Pivot: Number of bars to extend the trendline (default: 30, 0 = none). Extension increases the number of signals, while shortening reduces them.
- Tolerance: Deviation in RSI points to widen the breakout margin, reducing signal noise (default: 3.0).
Divergence Settings
- Enable Divergence Detection: Enables/disables divergence detection (default: enabled).
- Pivot Length for Divergence: Pivot period for divergences (default: 5).
Style Settings
- Upper Trendline Color: Color for downtrend lines (default: red).
- Upper Fill Color: Fill color for upper lines (default: red, transparency 70).
- Lower Trendline Color: Color for uptrend lines (default: green).
- Lower Fill Color: Fill color for lower lines (default: green, transparency 70).
- SMA Color: Color for RSI moving average (default: yellow).
- Bullish Divergence Color: Color for bullish labels (default: green).
- Bearish Divergence Color: Color for bearish labels (default: red).
- Text Color: Color for label text (default: white).
- Divergence Label Transparency: Transparency of labels (0-100, default: 40).
- Signal Background Transparency: Transparency of breakout signal background (0-100, default: 80).
Interpreting Signals
- Trendlines: Upper lines (red) indicate RSI downtrends, lower lines (green) indicate uptrends. The trendline appears and generates a signal only after the first RSI crossover. Trendline breakouts suggest potential trend reversals.
- Divergences: “Bull” labels indicate bullish divergence (potential rise), “Bear” labels indicate bearish divergence (potential decline), with a delay based on pivot length (default: 5). Divergences serve as confirmation or warning of trend reversal, not as standalone signals.
- Signal Background: Green background signals bullish breakouts, red background signals bearish breakouts.
- RSI Levels: Horizontal lines at 70 (overbought), 50 (midline), and 30 (oversold) help assess market zones.
- Alerts: Set up alerts in TradingView for divergences or trendline breakouts.
Combining with Other Tools: Use with support/resistance levels, Fibonacci levels, or other indicators for signal confirmation.
█APPLICATIONS
The "RSI Trendlines and Divergence" indicator is designed to identify trends and potential reversal points, supporting both trend-following and reversal strategies:
- Trend Confirmation: Trendlines indicate the RSI trend direction, with breakouts signaling potential reversals. The indicator is functional in traditional RSI usage, allowing classic RSI interpretation (e.g., returning from overbought/oversold zones). Combining trendline breakouts with RSI signal levels, such as a return from overbought or oversold zones paired with a trendline breakout, strengthens the signal.
- Divergence Detection: Divergences serve as confirmation or warning of trend reversal, not as standalone signals.
█NOTES
- Adjust settings (e.g., RSI length, pivots, tolerance) to suit your trading style and timeframe.
- Combine with other technical analysis tools to enhance signal accuracy.

Market Structure Trend Targets [ChartPrime]The Market Structure Trend Targets indicator is designed to identify trend direction and continuation points by marking significant breaks in price levels. This approach helps traders track trend strength and potential reversal points. The indicator uses previous highs and lows as breakout triggers, providing a visual roadmap for trend continuation or mean reversion signals.
⯁ KEY FEATURES AND HOW TO USE
⯌ Breakout Points with Numbered Markers :
The indicator identifies key breakout points where price breaks above a previous high (for uptrends) or below a previous low (for downtrends). The initial breakout (zero break) is marked with the entry price and a triangle icon, while subsequent breakouts within the trend are numbered sequentially (1, 2, 3…) to indicate trend continuation.
Example of breakout markers for uptrend and downtrend:
⯌ Percentage Change Display Option :
Traders can toggle on a setting to display the percentage change from the initial breakout point to each subsequent break level, offering an easy way to gauge trend momentum over time. This is particularly helpful for identifying how far price has moved in the current trend.
Percentage change example between break points:
⯌ Dynamic Stop Loss Levels :
In uptrends, the stop loss level is placed below the price to protect against downside moves. In downtrends, it is positioned above the price. If the price breaches the stop loss level, the indicator resets, indicating a potential end or reversal of the trend.
Dynamic stop loss level illustration in uptrend and downtrend:
⯌ Mean Reversion Signals :
The indicator identifies potential mean reversion points with diamond icons. In an uptrend, if the price falls below the stop loss and then re-enters above it, a diamond is plotted, suggesting a possible mean reversion. Similarly, in a downtrend, if the price moves above the stop loss and then falls back below, it indicates a reversion possibility.
Mean reversion diamond signals on the chart:
⯌ Trend Visualization with Colored Zones :
The chart background is shaded to visually represent trend direction, with color changes corresponding to uptrends and downtrends. This makes it easier to see overall market conditions at a glance.
⯁ USER INPUTS
Length : Defines the number of bars used to identify pivot highs and lows for trend breakouts.
Display Percentage : Option to toggle between showing sequential breakout numbers or the percentage change from the initial breakout.
Colors for Uptrend and Downtrend : Allows customization of color zones for uptrends and downtrends to match individual chart preferences.
⯁ CONCLUSION
The Market Structure Trend Targets indicator offers a strategic way to monitor market trends, track breakouts, and manage risk through dynamic stop loss levels. Its clear visual representation of trend continuity, alongside mean reversion signals, provides traders with actionable insights for both trend-following and counter-trend strategies.
