XΩ — T+ Sentiment Sniper
**XΩ — T+ Sentiment Sniper**
Crowd psychology helper for timing T+ reversals and managing risk
---
### 1. What is XΩ — T+ Sentiment Sniper?
XΩ — T+ Sentiment Sniper is a **crowd sentiment companion indicator**.
It estimates whether the market as a whole is currently:
- Deep in profit (euphoria, FOMO‑prone)
- Deep in loss (panic, capitulation‑prone)
- Slightly profitable / slightly losing
From that, it marks:
- Potential **supply/demand absorption** zones at panic lows and euphoric highs
- **Sentiment divergences** between price and crowd PnL
You use it as a **psychology layer on top of your main system**, especially for timing T+ style moves (the next 1–3 swings after an emotional extreme).
You do not need to understand the internal math to use it.
---
### 2. How to read the panel
The indicator runs in a **separate pane** (not on the price chart) and shows:
1. **Crowd Sentiment (Raw) – columns**
- Green/red columns represent how “good” or “bad” the crowd’s current PnL is.
- Taller columns = more emotional / more extreme conditions.
2. **Signal Line – white line**
- A smoothed line summarising the **overall direction of sentiment**.
- Helps you see whether psychology is improving or deteriorating.
3. **Horizontal levels**
- `0 (Neutral)` → sentiment is roughly balanced.
- `Euphoria` → crowd is strongly in profit (high risk of FOMO and distribution).
- `Panic` → crowd is deeply underwater (high risk of capitulation and absorption).
4. **Dashboard label on the latest bar**
- Status: `EUPHORIA (Risk)`, `PANIC (Opp.)`, `SLIGHT PROFIT`, or `SLIGHT LOSS`.
- Current **Crowd PnL (%)**.
- A short note about volume (stable vs unusually high, with a T+2 warning when needed).
At a glance, you know:
> “Is the market currently euphoric, panicking, or somewhere in between?”
---
### 3. What the signals mean
The indicator plots shapes at the top/bottom of the pane:
- **ABS (Absorption – Buy)**
- Small green circle near the bottom.
- Suggests **demand absorption**: sentiment is bad (panic), but strong buying appears against the selling.
- Use as a **potential bottom area** to watch, not an automatic “buy now”.
- **DST (Distribution – Sell)**
- Small red circle near the top.
- Suggests **distribution**: sentiment is very positive (euphoria), but strong selling appears into that optimism.
- Use as a **potential top area** to watch for taking profits or avoiding FOMO entries.
- **DIV triangle up (Bullish Div – Buy)**
- Yellow triangle pointing up near the bottom.
- Price makes new lows while sentiment stops getting worse and starts to improve.
- Suggests selling pressure is fading; potential for an upward reversal.
- **DIV triangle down (Bearish Div – Sell)**
- Orange triangle pointing down near the top.
- Price makes new highs while sentiment stops getting better and starts to weaken.
- Suggests buying pressure is fading; potential for a downward reversal.
Think of these as **context signals / alerts**, not as “must‑take” entries on their own.
---
### 4. Suggested ways to use it
#### 4.1. As a context filter before entering trades
Use Sentiment Sniper to avoid trading directly into emotional extremes:
- Avoid opening **new longs** when:
- The indicator is in the **Euphoria** zone and you see **DST or Bearish DIV** near resistance.
- Avoid opening **new shorts** when:
- The indicator is in the **Panic** zone and you see **ABS or Bullish DIV** near support.
In other words, use it as a **“do not chase” filter** for tops and bottoms.
---
#### 4.2. To spot potential T+ reversal zones
Example workflow:
1. Use your normal tools to mark **key zones** (support/resistance, liquidity areas, higher‑timeframe levels).
2. When price reaches those zones, look at T+ Sentiment Sniper:
- Near **Panic** with **ABS or Bullish DIV** → watch for potential long opportunities.
- Near **Euphoria** with **DST or Bearish DIV** → watch for potential short/exit opportunities.
3. Only take trades when:
- You also have confirmation from your own system (reversal candle, structure break, etc.).
4. Expect a **T+ style move** (1–3 swings) away from the extreme.
---
#### 4.3. To manage open positions
- When you are **heavily in profit**:
- If Sentiment Sniper moves into **Euphoria** and starts printing **DST or Bearish DIV**, consider:
- Taking partial profits
- Tightening stops
- Reducing risk to protect gains
- When you are **stuck in drawdown**:
- If sentiment is deep in **Panic** but there is **no** ABS or Bullish DIV yet, be careful:
- Avoid catching a falling knife too early.
- Look for sentiment to stabilise (ABS/DIV + your own confirmation) before committing.
---
### 5. User‑level settings (simple view)
You typically only need to think of them like this:
- **Half-Life (Memory Decay)**
- Higher value → sentiment reacts more slowly (more “long‑term” feel).
- Lower value → sentiment reacts faster to recent moves (better for short‑term trading).
- **Euphoria / Panic Threshold (%)**
- Define what counts as an “extreme”.
- For very volatile assets (crypto, small caps), you may want slightly wider thresholds.
- For calmer markets (majors, large caps), slightly tighter thresholds may be enough.
- **Avg Volume Length**
- Period to define “normal” volume.
- Spikes above this are used to flag meaningful absorption/distribution.
- **Show Sentiment Divergence / Show Supply/Demand Absorption**
- Turn off one or both if you feel the chart is too crowded.
- Keep only the parts that match your own style.
---
### 6. Alerts
In TradingView’s **Alerts** panel you will find:
- `XΩ SNIPER BUY`
- Triggers when a **psychological Buy** signal appears (Absorption or Bullish Divergence, if enabled).
- `XΩ SNIPER SELL`
- Triggers when a **psychological Sell** signal appears (Distribution or Bearish Divergence, if enabled).
Use alerts to be notified when the crowd hits important **Panic/Euphoria zones**, without watching the screen all day.
---
### 7. Important notes
- This is a **sentiment / context tool**, not a standalone “black box” system.
- Always combine it with:
- Price structure on higher timeframes
- Your own entry/exit rules
- Proper risk management
- Backtest and forward‑test before applying it with real capital.

Nexural QWAPQWAP - Quantitative Weighted Average Price with True Order Flow Analysis
INTRODUCTION
This is legit one of the best indicators I can possibly make. Since I don't have access to tick data on tradingview I can't claim it's as accurate as possible but it is a very polished indicator for VWAP based trading and the bands are VERY useful for mean reverting trading.
QWAP Elite is an advanced Volume Weighted Average Price indicator that incorporates true order flow analysis through intrabar data decomposition. Unlike traditional VWAP indicators that simply calculate price multiplied by volume divided by total volume, this indicator attempts to identify the directional intent behind that volume by analyzing whether buying or selling pressure dominated each bar at a granular level.
The fundamental premise of this indicator is that not all volume is created equal. A bar with 10000 contracts where 8000 were aggressive buyers tells a very different story than a bar with 10000 contracts where 8000 were aggressive sellers, even if both bars close at the same price. Traditional VWAP treats these identically. QWAP attempts to weight the VWAP calculation based on this directional flow information.
This indicator was designed for traders who believe that institutional order flow leaves detectable footprints in price and volume data, and that identifying these footprints can provide an edge in determining likely future price direction. It is not a holy grail and it is not a replacement for proper risk management and trading discipline.
HOW THE INDICATOR WORKS
The True CVD Engine
The core of this indicator is its Cumulative Volume Delta calculation. Most indicators on TradingView approximate buying and selling volume by looking at whether a bar closed higher or lower than it opened. If the bar closed green, they assign all volume as buying volume. If it closed red, they assign all volume as selling volume. This is a crude approximation that misses significant nuance.
QWAP Elite uses the request security lower tf function to pull actual intrabar data. This means if you are on a 5 minute chart, the indicator is looking at the individual ticks or smaller timeframe bars that occurred within that 5 minute period. It then calculates how much volume occurred on up moves versus down moves within that bar, giving a much more accurate picture of whether buyers or sellers were more aggressive.
The Delta Ratio is calculated as the net delta divided by total volume, resulting in a value between negative one and positive one. A value of positive 0.6 means that 80 percent of volume was buying and 20 percent was selling. A value of negative 0.4 means that 70 percent was selling and 30 percent was buying. This ratio is then used to weight the VWAP calculation.
The intrabar precision is displayed in the dashboard as the number of bars analyzed. More bars means more granular data and theoretically more accurate delta calculation. The indicator automatically selects an appropriate lower timeframe based on your chart timeframe to balance accuracy with computational performance.
VIX Integration and Volatility Intelligence
The indicator pulls live VIX data and uses it to adjust its calculations dynamically. The VIX or CBOE Volatility Index represents the market expectation of 30 day forward looking volatility derived from SP500 option prices. When VIX is elevated, markets behave differently than when VIX is compressed.
Specifically, the indicator uses VIX to adjust the standard deviation bands around VWAP. In high volatility environments where VIX is above 25 or 30, the bands automatically widen to account for larger price swings. In low volatility environments where VIX is below 15, the bands tighten. This prevents false signals that would occur if static band widths were used across all market conditions.
The indicator also pulls VVIX which is the volatility of the VIX itself and VIX9D which is the 9 day VIX. By comparing VIX to VIX9D, the indicator can identify term structure conditions. When short term VIX is higher than longer term VIX, this is called backwardation and often indicates fear or stress in the market. When short term VIX is lower, this is contango and indicates complacency.
The VIX regime classification in the dashboard shows CALM when VIX is below 12, NORMAL between 12 and 20, ELEVATED between 20 and 30, and FEAR when above 30. Each regime suggests different trading approaches and position sizing considerations.
DETECTION SYSTEMS
Absorption Detection
Absorption occurs when large volume enters the market but price barely moves. This happens when one side is absorbing all the aggression from the other side. For example, if aggressive sellers are hitting the bid repeatedly but price is not dropping, it suggests there is a large buyer absorbing all that selling pressure. This often precedes reversals.
The indicator detects absorption by looking for bars with above average volume, below average range, and high wick ratios. A high wick ratio means the bar has long wicks relative to its body, indicating price moved but was pushed back. When these conditions coincide with strong delta in one direction, it suggests institutional absorption.
Liquidity Sweep Detection
Liquidity sweeps, also known as stop hunts, occur when price briefly exceeds a recent high or low to trigger stop losses, then reverses. Large traders need liquidity to fill their orders, and stops clustered above swing highs or below swing lows represent pools of liquidity they can tap into.
The indicator identifies sweeps by detecting when price exceeds the 5 or 20 bar high or low but closes back inside. A bull trap is identified when price sweeps above recent highs but closes below them, suggesting sellers trapped buyers who bought the breakout. A bear trap is the opposite, where price sweeps lows but closes above, trapping shorts.
Sweep detection is most useful when combined with delta analysis. A sweep with strong opposing delta, meaning price swept highs but delta was heavily negative, is a higher probability reversal signal than a sweep alone.
CVD Divergence Detection
Divergence between price and cumulative delta is one of the most reliable signals the indicator produces. When price is making higher highs but cumulative delta is making lower highs, it suggests that buying pressure is weakening even though price is still rising. This bearish divergence often precedes pullbacks or reversals.
Conversely, bullish divergence occurs when price makes lower lows but cumulative delta makes higher lows. This suggests that even though price is dropping, buying pressure is actually increasing, and sellers may be exhausted. These divergences are calculated over a 5 bar lookback period.
Stacked Imbalance Detection
Stacked imbalances occur when there are three or more consecutive bars with strong delta in the same direction. This represents sustained aggressive positioning by one side of the market. Three consecutive bars with delta above 0.5 suggests aggressive institutional buying. Three consecutive bars below negative 0.5 suggests aggressive institutional selling.
The count of consecutive imbalanced bars is displayed in the detection section. Four or more stacked imbalances is considered highly significant. This pattern often precedes continuation moves in the direction of the imbalance, as it suggests a committed directional player has entered the market.
Institutional Flow Detection
The indicator attempts to identify institutional activity by looking for the convergence of multiple factors. Specifically, it requires strong delta above 0.5 or below negative 0.5, volume persistence across multiple bars meaning above average volume for at least 2 to 3 bars in a row, and delta persistence meaning delta in the same direction for multiple consecutive bars.
When these factors align, the dashboard displays INST BUY or INST SELL instead of RETAIL. This classification should be viewed as a probability estimate rather than a certainty. Retail traders can produce similar patterns, and institutions can hide their activity. The designation is meant to highlight periods where the characteristics of flow are consistent with larger players.
ADAPTIVE WEIGHT SYSTEM
The indicator includes an adaptive system that automatically adjusts how much weight the CVD analysis has on the VWAP calculation. In quiet, low volatility markets, the CVD weight is reduced because the signal to noise ratio is lower. In active, high volatility markets with clear directional flow, the weight is increased.
The adaptation considers multiple factors including VIX regime, delta clarity meaning how strong and consistent the delta readings are, volume persistence, and time of day session weighting. The current adaptive weight is displayed in the dashboard and typically ranges from 0.05 to 0.50.
The adaptation speed setting controls how quickly the weight responds to changing conditions. A higher speed means faster adaptation but potentially more noise. A lower speed means smoother adaptation but potentially slower response to regime changes.
SESSION AWARENESS
Not all trading hours are equal. The indicator applies different weights to different trading sessions based on typical liquidity and reliability patterns. The open drive, which covers 9 30 to 10 30 AM Eastern time, receives a 1.4x weight multiplier because this is typically the highest volume and most directionally significant period of the day.
Power hour from 3 00 to 4 00 PM Eastern receives a 1.3x multiplier as institutional traders often execute their daily positioning in this final hour. The lunch hour from 11 00 AM to 2 00 PM receives a 0.9x multiplier due to typically lower volume and more choppy price action. Premarket receives 0.7x and after hours receives 0.5x due to thin liquidity and unreliable signals.
The current session is displayed in the dashboard header. Traders should consider reducing position sizes and widening stops during lower weight sessions, particularly premarket and after hours where the indicator readings are less reliable.
COMPOSITE SCORES
Bias Score
The Bias Score ranges from negative 100 to positive 100 and represents the indicators overall directional lean. It synthesizes delta analysis, VWAP momentum, and multi-timeframe confluence into a single number. A score above 50 indicates strong bullish bias. A score below negative 50 indicates strong bearish bias. Scores between negative 20 and positive 20 are considered neutral.
The visual bias meter in the dashboard shows this score as a bar that leans left for bearish or right for bullish. This provides an at a glance summary of the indicators current directional reading without needing to interpret multiple individual metrics.
Setup Quality Score
The Setup Quality Score ranges from 0 to 100 and measures how many factors are aligning to support a potential trade. It awards points for strong delta readings, volume persistence, multi-timeframe confluence, detection events like absorption or divergence, and favorable session timing. A score above 60 suggests multiple factors are confirming. A score below 30 suggests the setup lacks confirmation.
This score is designed to help traders filter trades. Rather than acting on every signal, traders can set a minimum quality threshold. For example, only taking trades when quality is above 50 will filter out lower probability setups. Higher thresholds mean fewer trades but potentially higher win rates.
Heat Score
The Heat Score measures overall market activity intensity and ranges from 0 to 100. It combines volume heat meaning how elevated current volume is relative to average, volatility heat based on ATR expansion or VIX levels, delta heat meaning how strong the current delta reading is, and deviation heat meaning how far price is from VWAP.
Markets with heat above 75 are classified as EXTREME and typically represent high opportunity but also high risk environments. Heat between 50 and 75 is ACTIVE and represents good trading conditions. Heat between 25 and 50 is NORMAL. Heat below 25 is QUIET and suggests range bound conditions where mean reversion strategies may outperform trend following.
DASHBOARD GUIDE
Header Row
The header row displays QWAP with a lightning bolt icon, the current session abbreviation like OPEN or POWER or LUNCH, the current regime classification, and VIX status with a colored indicator. Green indicates low VIX and favorable conditions. Yellow indicates elevated VIX. Red indicates high VIX or that VIX data is unavailable.
Signal Row
The signal row is the largest and most prominent element. It displays the primary signal which will be LONG, SHORT, REVERSAL, or WAIT. LONG appears when bias is strongly bullish and quality is high. SHORT appears when bias is strongly bearish and quality is high. REVERSAL appears when divergence or absorption is detected at an extreme sigma level. WAIT appears when conditions do not meet the threshold for a signal.
Next to the signal is the quality score displayed as Q followed by a number out of 100. This helps traders quickly assess how confirmed the signal is. A LONG signal with Q 72 is more compelling than a LONG signal with Q 45.
Order Flow Section
The delta row shows the current delta direction as BUY or SELL, the percentage strength, a visual indicator of strength with filled or empty circles, and an arrow indicating whether delta is accelerating or decelerating. The flow row shows whether activity is classified as INST BUY, INST SELL, or RETAIL, along with the number of intrabar data points used in the calculation.
Market Section
The heat row displays the heat score as a visual bar and numeric value. The vol row shows volatility state as EXPAND, COMPRESS, or NORMAL along with relative volume. The dist row shows distance from VWAP in sigmas and percentage, plus momentum direction.
Detection Section
This section only appears when detections are active. It displays warning icons next to detection types like BUY ABS, SELL ABS, BULL TRAP, BEAR TRAP, BULL DIV, BEAR DIV, BUY STACK, or SELL STACK. Each detection includes a score representing its strength or significance.
HOW TO USE THIS INDICATOR
Recommended Workflow
First, check the regime and session. If VIX is in FEAR mode or you are in premarket or after hours, consider reduced position sizing or waiting for better conditions.
Second, look at the primary signal and quality score. Signals with quality below 40 are low conviction. Consider requiring quality above 50 or 60 before acting.
Third, check the bias meter for overall directional lean. Ensure it aligns with your intended trade direction.
Fourth, review active detections. Absorption and divergence near VWAP bands increase reversal probability. Stacked imbalances support continuation.
Fifth, use VWAP and sigma bands for entry, stop, and target placement. The bands provide natural support and resistance levels based on statistical distribution.
Sixth, monitor for changes in delta and flow classification. Institutional activity transitioning to retail or delta reversing direction are warning signs.
TRADE EXAMPLES
Mean Reversion Setup
Price extended to 2.5 sigma above VWAP. Signal shows REVERSAL. Quality is 55. Absorption detected with BUY ABS showing score of 2.3. Delta is showing SELL at 45 percent despite price being elevated. This suggests buyers are being absorbed and a pullback to VWAP is likely. Enter short with stop above the 3 sigma band and target at VWAP or 1 sigma band.
Trend Continuation Setup
Signal shows LONG with quality 68. Bias meter shows STRONG BULL. BUY STACK detected with 4 consecutive imbalanced bars. Flow shows INST BUY. Price has pulled back to VWAP and is finding support. Heat is at 62 indicating ACTIVE conditions. Enter long on VWAP touch with stop below 1 sigma band and target at 2 sigma band.
Liquidity Sweep Setup
BEAR TRAP detected with score of 1.8. Price swept below recent lows but closed back above. Delta is showing BUY at 52 percent on the sweep bar. BULL DIV also active as price made lower low but delta made higher low. Signal shows REVERSAL with quality 58. Enter long with stop below the sweep low and target at VWAP.
HONEST ASSESSMENT OF STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES
Strengths
True CVD calculation using intrabar data is significantly more accurate than close greater than open approximations used by most indicators. This provides genuine insight into buying versus selling pressure.
VIX integration with term structure analysis is institutional grade thinking applied to a retail tool. Dynamic band adjustment prevents false signals in different volatility regimes.
Multiple detection systems provide different perspectives on the same market. Absorption, sweeps, divergence, and imbalances each capture different footprints of institutional activity.
Composite scores synthesize complex information into actionable numbers. Traders do not need to mentally integrate 15 different metrics. The quality score and bias score do this automatically.
Session awareness prevents trading during low quality periods. The automatic weighting helps filter out noise from premarket, after hours, and lunch periods.
Adaptive system self adjusts to market conditions. Traders do not need to manually tune parameters as volatility and activity change.
Weaknesses and Limitations
Intrabar data is still an approximation of true tick level order flow. Without actual tick data showing individual trades hitting bid versus lifting offer, even this calculation has error bars. Professional platforms like Sierra Chart or Quantower with direct exchange feeds will always have more accurate delta.
The indicator is computationally heavy. Users may experience slower chart loading particularly on lower end hardware or when viewing many bars. The optimization features help but cannot eliminate this cost entirely.
Institutional detection is probabilistic not definitive. Retail traders in aggregate can produce patterns that look institutional. Institutions can and do hide their activity. The INST BUY and INST SELL labels should be viewed as probability shifts not certainties.
The indicator works best on liquid instruments with significant volume. On thinly traded stocks or during illiquid periods, delta calculations become noisy and unreliable. The indicator is optimized for ES, NQ, SPY, QQQ, and similar high volume instruments.
VIX integration only works for US equity index products. If trading forex, crypto, or other asset classes, the VIX data is not directly applicable and should be disabled.
No indicator can predict the future. Order flow analysis shows what happened and what is happening. It cannot guarantee what will happen next. Large players can and do reverse their positioning. News events can invalidate any technical setup instantly.
The complexity of the indicator means there is a learning curve. New users may be overwhelmed by the number of metrics displayed. It takes time to develop intuition for what combinations of readings are significant.
The indicator does not include automated backtesting or historical performance statistics. Users cannot easily quantify the win rate or expected value of following its signals without manual journaling and analysis.
RISK MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES
This indicator is a tool not a trading system. It provides information that may help inform trading decisions but it does not make those decisions for you. Proper risk management is essential regardless of how compelling the indicator readings appear.
Position Sizing
Never risk more than 1 to 2 percent of your account on any single trade regardless of how high the quality score is. High quality setups still fail regularly. A setup with 70 percent win rate still loses 30 percent of the time, and those losses can come in clusters.
Consider reducing position size when VIX is in ELEVATED or FEAR regime, when trading during premarket or after hours sessions, when quality score is below 50, and when multiple detection systems are conflicting with each other.
Stop Loss Placement
The sigma bands provide natural levels for stop placement. For mean reversion trades, stops should typically be placed beyond the next sigma level. For example, if entering short at 2 sigma, place stop beyond 3 sigma. For trend trades entering at VWAP, consider stops beyond 1 sigma in the opposite direction.
Stops should also respect market structure. If there is a recent swing high or low near your calculated stop level, extend the stop beyond that swing point. Placing stops at obvious levels invites stop hunting.
In high VIX environments, consider wider stops. The VIX band multiplier automatically widens the sigma bands, and your stops should reflect this increased volatility. A stop that works in a 15 VIX environment may be too tight when VIX is 30.
Taking Profits
The sigma bands also provide natural profit targets. For mean reversion trades, VWAP itself is often the first target with the opposite 1 sigma band as an extended target. For trend trades, each sigma band can serve as a scaling point.
Pay attention to delta and flow changes as price approaches targets. If delta is weakening or flow classification shifts from institutional to retail, consider taking profits early. Conversely, if delta is strengthening into the target, consider holding for extension.
When to Avoid Trading
Consider sitting out when the signal shows WAIT and quality is below 30. In these conditions, the indicator is essentially saying there is no clear edge. Trading anyway is gambling not trading.
Avoid trading during major news events. The indicator cannot account for sudden information shocks. Economic releases, Fed announcements, earnings reports, and geopolitical events can invalidate any technical setup instantly.
Consider avoiding the first and last 5 minutes of regular trading hours. These periods often have erratic price action and unreliable delta calculations due to order imbalances at open and close.
SETTINGS REFERENCE
Core Engine Settings
VWAP Source determines what price is used for the VWAP calculation. The default HLC3 uses the average of high, low, and close which provides a balanced representation. HL2 uses just high and low average. Close uses only the closing price. Most traders should leave this at HLC3.
True CVD Engine should remain enabled for accurate order flow analysis. Disabling it falls back to close greater than open estimation which is significantly less accurate. Only disable if you are experiencing performance issues.
CVD Impact controls how much the delta analysis affects the VWAP calculation. Higher values mean delta has more influence. The default 0.2 provides a balance. Increase toward 0.5 if you want delta to have stronger effect. Decrease toward 0.1 if you want something closer to traditional VWAP.
Detection Sensitivity offers three presets. Conservative produces fewer signals but higher confidence. Balanced is the default middle ground. Aggressive produces more signals but with more false positives. New users should start with Balanced and adjust based on experience.
VIX Settings
VIX Integration should be enabled when trading US equity index products like ES, NQ, SPY, or QQQ. Disable it when trading forex, crypto, commodities, or individual stocks where VIX is not directly applicable.
VIX Symbol allows selection between VIX for SP500 volatility, VXN for Nasdaq volatility, and RVX for Russell 2000 volatility. Choose the one most relevant to your trading instrument.
VIX Baseline sets the historical average VIX level used for normalization. The default 16 represents the long term average. If trading in a persistently higher or lower VIX environment, adjusting this can help calibrate the regime classifications.
Display Settings
Dashboard Style offers three options. Compact shows only the signal and bias meter for minimal screen footprint. Elite adds order flow and market sections for balanced information. Full adds VIX details, detections, and adaptive system information for complete visibility.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why does the indicator sometimes show WAIT when there is an obvious trend
The signal system is designed to identify high probability entry points not to constantly indicate trend direction. A strong uptrend may show WAIT because price is extended from VWAP and a pullback is likely before continuation. The indicator is trying to prevent you from buying the top of an impulse move.
Why is my delta reading different from another order flow tool
Different platforms calculate delta differently. Some use tick data. Some use time based aggregation. Some use volume based aggregation. The timeframe being analyzed matters as well. QWAP uses intrabar data which is more accurate than close versus open approximations but less accurate than true tick data from professional platforms.
Can I use this indicator for scalping
The indicator can be used on lower timeframes but becomes less reliable. On 1 minute charts, the intrabar decomposition has fewer data points to work with. For scalping, consider using 3 to 5 minute charts as a minimum. Also note that the session weighting and detection systems are calibrated for swing and intraday trading, not ultra short term scalping.
Does this indicator repaint
The VWAP line and sigma bands can adjust slightly as intrabar data comes in during a live bar. Once a bar closes, those values are fixed. The signals and detections are calculated on closed bars and do not repaint. For live trading, wait for bar close confirmation before acting on signals.
What markets does this work best on
The indicator is optimized for high liquidity US equity index products including ES, NQ, SPY, QQQ, IWM, and DIA. It can work on other liquid instruments but the VIX integration should be disabled for non equity products. Avoid using on low volume stocks or illiquid markets where delta calculations will be noisy.

HTF Entry Model+ [#] by @shulktradesHTF Entry Model+ by @shulktrades
Overview
The HTF Entry Model+ is a multi-timeframe trading indicator that identifies algorithmic signatures in price action and automatically displays complete entry setups with risk-to-reward projections. When specific order flow patterns are detected on a higher timeframe, the indicator calculates and displays entry zones, stop loss placement, and multiple profit targets - giving traders a complete trade plan before price reaches the entry level.
What This Indicator Does
Identifies Algorithmic Price Patterns
The indicator monitors a higher timeframe to detect specific signatures in price action that signal potential reversals or continuations. These patterns represent moments when institutional order flow creates measurable shifts in market dynamics.
Key Points:
- Analyzes higher timeframe price structure continuously
- Detects order flow signatures that precede directional moves
- Confirms patterns only when specific conditions are met
- Filters out low-quality signals automatically
Projects Complete Entry Models
When a valid pattern is detected, the indicator immediately calculates and displays a full trade setup with all necessary levels clearly marked on your chart.
What Gets Displayed:
- Entry zone (optimal price area to enter the trade)
- Stop loss level (where to exit if wrong)
- Multiple profit targets (1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4, 1:5, 1:6, 1:7)
- OTE levels (Optimal Trade Entry zone & OTE + take profit model)
- Risk-reward ratios for each target
Adapts to Your Timeframe
The indicator intelligently selects an appropriate higher timeframe based on your current chart, or you can manually choose which timeframe to analyze.
Timeframe Relationships:
- 1-5 minute charts → analyzes 15-60 minute structure
- 15-30 minute charts → analyzes 4-hour structure
- 1 hour charts → analyzes daily structure
- 4 hour charts → analyzes weekly structure
- Daily charts → analyzes monthly structure
How Traders Use This Indicator
Step 1: Wait for Setup Detection
The indicator runs in the background, continuously scanning the higher timeframe for algorithmic signatures. When detected, a horizontal marker appears at the pattern formation level.
Step 2: Review the Entry Model
Once confirmed, the complete risk-reward projection displays instantly:
- All entry and exit levels are clearly labeled
- Stop loss shows exactly where the setup invalidates
- Multiple targets allow for systematic profit-taking
- Color coding shows bullish (green) or bearish (red) direction
Step 3: Plan Your Trade
Before price retraces to the entry zone, you have complete information:
- Know your exact entry price levels
- Know your exact stop loss placement
- Know multiple profit target levels
- Calculate position size based on the risk shown
Step 4: Execute When Price Returns
Wait for price to retrace back into the entry zone (OTE levels), then execute your trade with predefined parameters.
Step 5: Manage According to the Model
Use the displayed targets to manage your position:
- Scale out partial profits at each target level
- Move stops to breakeven after first or second target
- Let remaining position run toward extended targets

Important Information
What This Indicator Does NOT Do
- Does not predict future price movement
- Does not guarantee profitable trades
- Does not show internal calculation methods or specific detection criteria
- Does not display the pattern scanning process (only confirmed setups)
What Traders Should Understand
- This tool identifies potential setups based on candlestick order flow analysis
- All trading involves risk - use appropriate position sizing
- Combine with your own analysis and market understanding
- Proper risk management is essential regardless of signal quality
- Past setup performance does not guarantee future results
Standard Risk Management Guidelines
Position Sizing
- Risk only 1-2% of account capital per trade
- Use the displayed stop loss distance to calculate position size
- Adjust size smaller for lower-confidence setups
- Never risk more than you can afford to lose
Stop Loss Placement
- Always honor the displayed stop loss level
- Place stops at or slightly beyond the marked level
- Do not move stops further away if trade moves against you
- Accept the loss if stop is hit and wait for next setup
Profit Taking Strategy
- Consider scaling out at multiple target levels
- Take some profit at 1:1 to reduce risk to zero
- Let remaining position run toward extended targets
- Move stops to breakeven after first target is hit
Additional Considerations
- Be aware of overall market trend direction
- Reduce position size during uncertain market conditions
- Keep detailed records of trades taken from indicator setups
Important Trading Considerations
Price Action Variability
It is important to note that market conditions vary and price does not always retrace into the displayed entry zones. In certain market environments, particularly during strong impulsive moves or high-impact news events, price may move directly toward the projected targets without providing an opportunity to enter at the optimal entry levels. Traders should be prepared to either wait for proper entry conditions or adjust their strategy accordingly based on their risk tolerance and trading plan.

Buy Sell SignalBuy Sell Signal - EMA Crossover with Dynamic Risk Management
OVERVIEW
This indicator combines a dual EMA crossover system with ATR-based dynamic stop loss and take profit levels to provide complete trade management signals. Unlike basic EMA crossover scripts, this tool automatically calculates and displays entry points, stop losses, and take profit targets based on market volatility, offering traders a complete trading framework in a single indicator.
HOW IT WORKS
The indicator uses three core components working together:
Trend Detection: A fast EMA (default 5) and slow EMA (default 13) identify trend direction. When the fast EMA crosses above the slow EMA, it signals bullish momentum; when it crosses below, it signals bearish momentum.
Entry Validation: Optional candle confirmation filter ensures the crossover is accompanied by a bullish/bearish candle close, reducing false signals in choppy markets.
Risk Management: Uses ATR (Average True Range, default 14 periods) to calculate:
Stop Loss: Positioned below/above recent swing low/high minus ATR multiplier (default 0.5x)
Take Profit: Calculated using customizable risk-reward ratio (default 3:1)
KEY FEATURES
✅ Automatic Position Tracking: Monitors active trades and displays current position status (LONG/SHORT/No position)
✅ Visual Trade Management: Shows entry price (white dashed line), stop loss (red line), and take profit (green line) in real-time
✅ Trade Outcome Signals: Displays clear markers when TP is hit (🎯), SL is triggered (❌), or position is invalidated by opposite signal
✅ Information Dashboard: Live table showing entry price, SL, TP, and actual R:R ratio
✅ Smart Position Invalidation: Automatically closes and invalidates previous positions when opposite trend signal appears
✅ Customizable Alerts: Five alert conditions for BUY/SELL signals, TP hits, SL triggers, and invalidations
INPUTS
Fast EMA Length (default 5): Responsive to recent price action
Slow EMA Length (default 13): Defines broader trend direction
ATR Period (default 14): Volatility measurement period
SL Multiplier (default 0.5): Distance from swing point to stop loss
Risk:Reward Ratio (default 3.0): Target profit relative to risk
Candle Confirmation (default ON): Requires bullish/bearish candle on crossover
HOW TO USE
Apply the indicator to your chart (works on all timeframes)
Adjust EMA periods based on your trading style (shorter for scalping, longer for swing trading)
Set your preferred risk-reward ratio
Enable alerts for automated notifications
When a BUY/SELL signal appears, the indicator automatically calculates and displays your complete trade plan
Monitor the information table for live position updates
Exit when TP is reached or SL is triggered
TRADING METHODOLOGY
This script implements a momentum-following strategy based on exponential moving average crossovers, enhanced with volatility-adjusted risk parameters. The ATR-based stop loss adapts to market conditions—wider stops in volatile markets, tighter stops in calm markets. The position invalidation feature prevents traders from holding outdated positions when market sentiment shifts.
BEST PRACTICES
Use on trending markets for best results
Higher timeframes (4H, Daily) produce fewer but more reliable signals.
For scalpe use 5 and 15 minutes(Risk).
Consider market context and fundamental factors alongside signals
Adjust ATR multiplier based on asset volatility
Test different EMA combinations for your preferred instruments
ORIGINALITY
While EMA crossover systems are common, this script's value lies in its complete integration of entry logic, dynamic risk management, position tracking, and automated invalidation—features typically requiring multiple separate indicators. The ATR-based stop loss calculation and automatic R:R visualization provide practical trade execution guidance that basic crossover indicators lack.
Important Notes:
This indicator does not guarantee profitable trades

Universal Scalper Indicator [Crypto/Forex/Gold]Universal Scalper Pro is an all-in-one scalping system designed for the 15-Minute Timeframe. It automates the analysis of trend, volatility, and risk management into a single, high-contrast dashboard.
Unlike standard crossover indicators, this system filters out low-volatility "noise" using a built-in ADX engine and automatically calculates dynamic Stop Loss and Take Profit levels based on market volatility (ATR).
It is engineered to work universally on:
Crypto (BTC, ETH, SOL, Altcoins)
Commodities (Gold, Silver, Oil)
Forex (Major & Minor Pairs)
Stocks (High volume tech stocks like NVDA, TSLA)
📈 How It Works (The Strategy)
1. The Trend Engine (9/21 EMA) The core logic utilizes a Fast (9) and Slow (21) Exponential Moving Average crossover.
Bullish Signal: The 9 EMA crosses above the 21 EMA.
Bearish Signal: The 9 EMA crosses below the 21 EMA. This specific combination is chosen for its responsiveness to 15-minute intraday trends.
2. The Noise Filter (ADX > 15) To prevent "whipsaws" (fake signals during sideways markets), the script includes a Volatility Filter based on the Average Directional Index (ADX).
Signals are rejected if the ADX is below 15.
This ensures you only receive alerts when there is sufficient momentum to sustain a move.
3. Dynamic Risk Management (ATR) The script uses the Average True Range (ATR) to calculate Stop Loss and Take Profit levels that adapt to the specific asset's volatility.
Stop Loss: Placed at 1.5x ATR from the entry. (Tight enough to preserve capital, wide enough to survive standard market noise).
Take Profit: Placed at 2.0x ATR from the entry. (Provides a healthy 1:1.3 Risk/Reward ratio).
🚀 Key Features
Universal Dashboard: A bottom-right panel displays the live Trend Status, Entry Price, Stop Loss, and Take Profit. It automatically formats decimals for any asset (e.g., 2 decimals for Gold, 5 for Forex, 8 for Crypto).
"Sticky" Memory: The dashboard retains the prices of the last valid signal, allowing you to manage your trade even after the signal candle closes.
Trend Cloud: A visual Green/Red zone between the EMAs helps you instantly identify the market bias.
Unified Alerts: A single alert setup ("Any alert() function call") sends the Asset Name, Entry, SL, and TP directly to your phone.
🛠️ How to Use
Timeframe: Set your chart to 15 Minutes (15m).
Wait for the Signal: Look for the "BUY" (Green) or "SELL" (Red) label on the chart.
Check the Dashboard: Ensure the "STATUS" is BULLISH (for buys) or BEARISH (for sells). If the status says "WAIT", do not trade.
Execute: Enter the trade using the exact Stop Loss and Take Profit levels shown on the dashboard.

Partials
Scales out your position at multiple take-profit levels.Instead of closing the entire trade at once, the system secures profits gradually at TP1, TP2, and TP3 while keeping the remainder running.
TrailingStop
Uses a dynamic stop loss that follows price as it moves in your favor.There is no fixed Take Profit; instead, the trailing stop locks in profit and exits the trade automatically when momentum reverses.
7.Automatic Alert System
This is the System that organizes all settings related to the automatic webhook alert creator inside the indicator.

If SL is 20 pips away:
Position size = $10 / 20 pips = $0.50/pip
Simple! Never risk more than you can afford to lose.
🎯 Success Tips
From Professional Traders:
Tip #1: Quality Over Quantity
"Better to take 3 excellent trades per week
than 20 mediocre trades per day."
→ Focus on 5-star signals at first
Tip #2: Respect the Stop Loss
"The indicator calculated it for a reason.
Moving stops = breaking risk management."
→ Set it and honor it, always
Tip #3: Take Partial Profits
"Bank some profit at TP1, let the rest run to TP2.

Adaptive Trend & Momentum [ATM] - All-in-One Confirmation Tired of Cluttered Charts and Conflicting Signals? This All-in-One Indicator is Your Solution.
The Adaptive Trend & Momentum (ATM) indicator is a powerful, next-generation trading tool designed to eliminate chart clutter and provide clear, high-conviction signals. Instead of using multiple conflicting indicators, the ATM system combines trend, momentum, and volatility into a single, cohesive, and adaptive framework. It automatically adjusts to changing market conditions, giving you a reliable edge in any environment.
This is not just another moving average crossover. It is a complete trading system that helps you identify the trend, confirm its strength, and time your entries with precision.
Key Features
•
Adaptive Moving Average (AMA): The core of the system. The AMA automatically adjusts its length based on market volatility (using the Average True Range). It becomes faster and more responsive in volatile markets to catch moves early, and smoother in calm markets to avoid noise and false signals.
•
Dynamic Volatility Bands: These bands expand and contract based on market volatility, providing a dynamic map of support and resistance. They are crucial for identifying pullback opportunities and setting effective stop-loss levels.
•
Integrated Momentum Oscillator: A smoothed RSI-based oscillator that runs in a separate pane. It is designed to confirm the signals from the main chart. The oscillator and its histogram are color-coded to show whether bullish or bearish momentum is in control, giving you an instant read on market strength.
•
Clear Consensus Signals: The ATM indicator provides four distinct, easy-to-read signals directly on your chart:
•
STRONG BUY: The highest-conviction signal, appearing when the trend is bullish, momentum is bullish, and the price has pulled back to a strategic entry zone near the AMA.
•
BUY: A standard confirmation signal when both trend and momentum are aligned to the upside.
•
STRONG SELL: The highest-conviction short signal, appearing when the trend is bearish, momentum is bearish, and the price has rallied to a strategic entry zone.
•
SELL: A standard confirmation signal when both trend and momentum are aligned to the downside.
•
Real-Time Dashboard: A convenient on-chart table that provides a complete overview of the market at a glance. It shows the current adaptive length, trend direction, momentum status, consensus signal, and volatility percentage, so you always know what the indicator is thinking.
How It Works: The Adaptive Engine
The magic of the ATM indicator lies in its adaptive engine. Traditional moving averages use a fixed length (e.g., 50-period MA), which can be too slow in a fast market or too sensitive in a choppy one. The ATM’s Adaptive Moving Average solves this by dynamically adjusting its calculation period in real-time:
When volatility increases, the AMA shortens its length to react more quickly to price changes. When volatility decreases, it lengthens its period to smooth out noise and prevent false signals.
This adaptive nature ensures that the indicator remains relevant and effective across different assets and timeframes, from scalping to swing trading.
How to Use This Indicator: A Simple Trading Strategy
The ATM indicator is designed for clarity and ease of use. Here is a basic framework for trading with it:
For Long (Buy) Positions:
1.
Identify the Trend: Wait for the Adaptive Moving Average (AMA) line to turn green, indicating a confirmed uptrend.
2.
Confirm with Momentum: Check that the momentum oscillator is above 50 and preferably rising, confirming bullish strength.
3.
Find Your Entry: The best entry is a "STRONG BUY" signal. This tells you that the price has pulled back to a value area within the uptrend, offering a high-probability entry. A standard "BUY" signal can also be used, but the conviction is higher on "STRONG" signals.
4.
Set Your Stop-Loss: A logical place for a stop-loss is just below the lower volatility band.
5.
Take Profit: Consider taking profits when an opposing "SELL" or "STRONG SELL" signal appears, or when the price reaches a key resistance level.
For Short (Sell) Positions:
1.
Identify the Trend: Wait for the Adaptive Moving Average (AMA) line to turn red, indicating a confirmed downtrend.
2.
Confirm with Momentum: Check that the momentum oscillator is below 50 and preferably falling, confirming bearish strength.
3.
Find Your Entry: The best entry is a "STRONG SELL" signal. This indicates the price has rallied to a resistance area within the downtrend, offering a prime shorting opportunity. A standard "SELL" signal can also be used.
4.
Set Your Stop-Loss: A logical place for a stop-loss is just above the upper volatility band.
5.
Take Profit: Consider taking profits when an opposing "BUY" or "STRONG BUY" signal appears, or when the price reaches a key support level.
Customization and Settings
The indicator is fully customizable to fit your trading style and the asset you are trading. You can adjust:
•
AMA Settings: Control the base length and the volatility multiplier to make the indicator more or less sensitive.
•
Momentum Settings: Adjust the RSI length and smoothing for the oscillator.
•
Volatility Bands: Change the multiplier to widen or narrow the bands.
•
Visuals: Toggle signals, labels, and the dashboard on or off, and customize all colors to your preference.
Summary
The Adaptive Trend & Momentum (ATM) indicator is more than just a tool; it is a complete system for making more confident trading decisions. By adapting to the market and combining trend, momentum, and volatility, it provides a clear, uncluttered, and powerful view of price action.
Add it to your chart today and experience the clarity of adaptive trading!
Disclaimer: This indicator is a tool for technical analysis and should not be considered financial advice. Trading involves risk, and you should always use proper risk management. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Practice on a demo account before trading with real capital.

Cumulative Delta_Effort vs Result_immy**Cumulative Delta Oscillator\_effort**
This script creates a “Cumulative Delta Effort vs Result” oscillator, a custom indicator designed to measure the balance between buying and selling pressure (Effort) versus actual price movement (Result).
**How It Works**
Delta Volume: Measures aggressive buying vs selling per candle.
Cumulative Delta: Tracks net buying/selling pressure over time.
Effort vs Result: Compares volume delta (effort) to price movement (result).
Oscillator: Highlights divergence between effort and result, useful for spotting absorption (high effort, low result) and exhaustion (low effort, high result).
Histogram: Visual cue for accumulation/distribution zones.
----------------------------
This indicator combines volume delta (effort) and price movement (result), so it tells you how efficiently volume is moving price — a concept sometimes called effort vs. result analysis in Wyckoff or volume–spread analysis (VSA).
🔍 Concept Summary
Effort (delta volume) = how much buying/selling pressure is there (volume side).
Result (price change) = how much that effort moves price (price side).
Oscillator (Effort − Result) = how much “extra” effort is not producing movement — often showing absorption or exhaustion.
📈 How to Interpret the Signals
1\. Oscillator above Signal line → Bullish Momentum
When osc > signal, histogram turns green.
Means buying effort is stronger than price reaction — often early sign of accumulation or rising demand.
This can signal:
Possible bullish continuation if confirmed by rising prices.
Or early absorption if prices aren’t yet breaking out (smart money absorbing supply).
✅ Bullish Entry Signal:
When the oscillator crosses above the signal line (green cross) and price is near support or consolidating → potential long setup.
2\. Oscillator below Signal line → Bearish Momentum
When osc < signal, histogram turns red.
Selling effort dominates; can mean increasing supply or price exhaustion.
This often appears before:
Bearish continuation (trend strengthening)
Or upthrust/exhaustion (price rising on weak volume)
❌ Bearish Entry Signal:
When the oscillator crosses below the signal line (red cross), especially if near resistance → potential short setup.
3\. Crossovers
The alert is triggered when: ta.cross(osc, signal)
That means:
Bullish crossover: oscillator line crosses above signal → potential buy momentum shift.
Bearish crossover: oscillator line crosses below signal → potential sell momentum shift.
These work like MACD crossovers, but volume-adjusted.
4\. Zero Line
The zero line is the neutral point.
When osc crosses above zero, overall buying effort exceeds price change — market gaining strength.
When osc crosses below zero, selling pressure increases — market weakening.
→ Combining signal line crosses with zero-line crosses gives stronger confirmation.
5\. Histogram Analysis (Absorption \& Exhaustion)**
Tall green bars: rising momentum (buyers dominate)
Tall red bars: falling momentum (sellers dominate)
Shrinking bars: momentum fading — possible reversal zone.
If volume increases but price stalls, oscillator may spike while price stays flat — absorption (big players taking the opposite side).
If price surges but oscillator weakens, exhaustion — move running out of volume support.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
🧠 Practical Strategy Example
Situation What It Might Mean Possible Action
Oscillator crosses above signal near support Buyer effort increasing, price may rise Go long / close shorts
Oscillator crosses below signal near resistance Seller effort rising, price may drop Go short / take profits
Oscillator high but price flat Absorption (big players absorbing supply) Wait for breakout confirmation
Oscillator low but price flat Absorption (demand absorbing supply) Look for bullish reversal
Oscillator diverges from price Volume–price divergence Early warning of reversal
⚙️ Best Practice
Works best on volume-sensitive assets (futures, crypto, forex tick data).
**Combine with:**
Price structure (support/resistance)
Volume profile / delta footprint
Candle confirmation
We’ll go through both bullish and bearish examples so you can see how to trade with it in real market context.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
🟩 Example 1 — Bullish Setup (Long Trade)
Step 1. Context: Identify Potential Support Zone
Before relying on any indicator, find support using:
Previous swing low
Demand zone
VWAP / volume profile node
Trendline or moving average
👉 You’re looking for a place where buyers might step in.
Step 2. Wait for Oscillator Signal
Watch the oscillator panel:
The oscillator (green line) has been below the signal line (orange) → bearish phase.
Then it crosses above the signal line and the histogram turns green.
This means:
➡️ Buying “effort” is increasing faster than price reaction — momentum shift upward.
Step 3. Confirm with Price
On your chart:
Candle closes above short-term resistance or above previous candle high
Ideally volume confirms (green candle with increasing volume)
✅ Bullish Entry Condition
osc crosses above signal
price closes above local resistance
Step 4. Entry \& Stop
Entry: Next candle open after confirmation cross
Stop-loss: Below recent swing low or support zone
Take profit:
2R or 3R target
or near next resistance level
🧠 Optional filter: Only take the trade if oscillator is rising from below zero (coming out of weakness).
Step 5. Manage Trade
If oscillator flattens or starts curling down → tighten stop
If it crosses below the signal again → consider exit
Example Interpretation:
Oscillator crosses above signal from -200 to +100, histogram turns green, price breaks a resistance line → strong bullish reversal → enter long.
🟥 Example 2 — Bearish Setup (Short Trade)
Step 1. Context: Find Resistance
Look for: Prior swing high
Supply zone
Major moving average
Trendline top
Step 2. Wait for Oscillator Cross Down
The oscillator (green) crosses below the signal line (orange).
Histogram turns red.
This means:
➡️ Selling effort is rising relative to price movement — bearish pressure.
Step 3. Confirm with Price
Price fails to make higher highs, or
Forms a bearish engulfing candle near resistance.
✅ Bearish Entry Condition
osc crosses below signal
price confirms with bearish candle
Step 4. Entry \& Stop
Entry: On next candle open
Stop-loss: Above resistance or recent swing high
Take profit: 2R or more or at next major support
Step 5. Exit on Opposite Signal
If oscillator crosses back above signal → momentum shift → exit short.
⚙️ Pro Tips
Tip Why It Matters
Use on 15m–4H+ charts More reliable delta signal
Combine with volume or OBV Confirms “effort” strength
Watch divergences Early reversals
Align with higher timeframe trend Avoid countertrend traps

Luxy BIG beautiful Dynamic ORBThis is an advanced Opening Range Breakout (ORB) indicator that tracks price breakouts from the first 5, 15, 30, and 60 minutes of the trading session. It provides complete trade management including entry signals, stop-loss placement, take-profit targets, and position sizing calculations.
The ORB strategy is based on the concept that the opening range of a trading session often acts as support/resistance, and breakouts from this range tend to lead to significant moves.
What Makes This Different?
Most ORB indicators simply draw horizontal lines and leave you to figure out the rest. This indicator goes several steps further:
Multi-Stage Tracking
Instead of just one ORB timeframe, this tracks FOUR simultaneously (5min, 15min, 30min, 60min). Each stage builds on the previous one, giving you multiple trading opportunities throughout the session.
Active Trade Management
When a breakout occurs, the indicator automatically calculates and displays entry price, stop-loss, and multiple take-profit targets. These lines extend forward and update in real-time until the trade completes.
Cycle Detection
Unlike indicators that only show the first breakout, this tracks the complete cycle: Breakout → Retest → Re-breakout. You can see when price returns to test the ORB level after breaking out (potential re-entry).
Failed Breakout Warning
If price breaks out but quickly returns inside the range (within a few bars), the label changes to "FAILED BREAK" - warning you to exit or avoid the trade.
Position Sizing Calculator
Built-in risk management that tells you exactly how many shares to buy based on your account size and risk tolerance. No more guessing or manual calculations.
Advanced Filtering
Optional filters for volume confirmation, trend alignment, and Fair Value Gaps (FVG) to reduce false signals and improve win rate.
Core Features Explained
### 1. Multi-Stage ORB Levels
The indicator builds four separate Opening Range levels:
ORB 5 - First 5 minutes (fastest signals, most volatile)
ORB 15 - First 15 minutes (balanced, most popular)
ORB 30 - First 30 minutes (slower, more reliable)
ORB 60 - First 60 minutes (slowest, most confirmed)
Each level is drawn as a horizontal range on your chart. As time progresses, the ranges expand to include more price action. You can enable or disable any stage and assign custom colors to each.
How it works: During the opening minutes, the indicator tracks the highest high and lowest low. Once the time period completes, those levels become your ORB high and low for that stage.
### 2. Breakout Detection
When price closes outside the ORB range, a label appears:
BREAK UP (green label above price) - Price closed above ORB High
BREAK DOWN (red label below price) - Price closed below ORB Low
The label shows which ORB stage triggered (ORB5, ORB15, etc.) and the cycle number if tracking multiple breakouts.
Important: Signals appear on bar close only - no repainting. What you see is what you get.
### 3. Retest Detection
After price breaks out and moves away, if it returns to test the ORB level, a "RETEST" label appears (orange). This indicates:
The original breakout level is now acting as support/resistance
Potential re-entry opportunity if you missed the first breakout
Confirmation that the level is significant
The indicator requires price to move a minimum distance away before considering it a valid retest (configurable in settings).
### 4. Failed Breakout Detection
If price breaks out but returns inside the ORB range within a few bars (before the breakout is "committed"), the original label changes to "FAILED BREAK" in orange.
This warns you:
The breakout lacked conviction
Consider exiting if already in the trade
Wait for better setup
Committed Breakout: The indicator tracks how many bars price stays outside the range. Only after staying outside for the minimum number of bars does it become a committed breakout that can be retested.
### 5. TP/SL Lines (Trade Management)
When a breakout occurs, colored horizontal lines appear showing:
Entry Line (cyan for long, orange for short) - Your entry price (the ORB level)
Stop Loss Line (red) - Where to exit if trade goes against you
TP1, TP2, TP3 Lines (same color as entry) - Profit targets at 1R, 2R, 3R
These lines extend forward as new bars form, making it easy to track your trade. When a target is hit, the line turns green and the label shows a checkmark.
Lines freeze (stop updating) when:
Stop loss is hit
The final enabled take-profit is hit
End of trading session (optional setting)
### 6. Position Sizing Dashboard
The dashboard (bottom-left corner by default) shows real-time information:
Current ORB stage and range size
Breakout status (Inside Range / Break Up / Break Down)
Volume confirmation (if filter enabled)
Trend alignment (if filter enabled)
Entry and Stop Loss prices
All enabled Take Profit levels with percentages
Risk/Reward ratio
Position sizing: Max shares to buy and total risk amount
Position Sizing Example:
If your account is $25,000 and you risk 1% per trade ($250), and the distance from entry to stop loss is $0.50, the calculator shows you can buy 500 shares (250 / 0.50 = 500).
### 7. FVG Filter (Fair Value Gap)
Fair Value Gaps are price inefficiencies - gaps left by strong momentum where one candle's high doesn't overlap with a previous candle's low (or vice versa).
When enabled, this filter:
Detects bullish and bearish FVGs
Draws semi-transparent boxes around these gaps
Only allows breakout signals if there's an FVG near the breakout level
Why this helps: FVGs indicate institutional activity. Breakouts through FVGs tend to be stronger and more reliable.
Proximity setting: Controls how close the FVG must be to the ORB level. 2.0x means the breakout can be within 2 times the FVG size - a reasonable default.
### 8. Volume & Trend Filters
Volume Filter:
Requires current volume to be above average (customizable multiplier). High volume breakouts are more likely to sustain.
Set minimum multiplier (e.g., 1.5x = 50% above average)
Set "strong volume" multiplier (e.g., 2.5x) that bypasses other filters
Dashboard shows current volume ratio
Trend Filter:
Only shows breakouts aligned with a higher timeframe trend. Choose from:
VWAP - Price above/below volume-weighted average
EMA - Price above/below exponential moving average
SuperTrend - ATR-based trend indicator
Combined modes (VWAP+EMA, VWAP+SuperTrend) for stricter filtering
### 9. Pullback Filter (Advanced)
Purpose:
Waits for price to pull back slightly after initial breakout before confirming the signal.
This reduces false breakouts from immediate reversals.
How it works:
- After breakout is detected, indicator waits for a small pullback (default 2%)
- Once pullback occurs AND price breaks out again, signal is confirmed
- If no pullback within timeout period (5 bars), signal is issued anyway
Settings:
Enable Pullback Filter: Turn this filter on/off
Pullback %: How much price must pull back (2% is balanced)
Timeout (bars): Max bars to wait for pullback (5 is standard)
When to use:
- Choppy markets with many fake breakouts
- When you want higher quality signals
- Combine with Volume filter for maximum confirmation
Trade-off:
- Better signal quality
- May miss some valid fast moves
- Slight entry delay
How to Use This Indicator
### For Beginners - Simple Setup
Add the indicator to your chart (5-minute or 15-minute timeframe recommended)
Leave all default settings - they work well for most stocks
Watch for BREAK UP or BREAK DOWN labels to appear
Check the dashboard for entry, stop loss, and targets
Use the position sizing to determine how many shares to buy
Basic Trading Plan:
Wait for a clear breakout label
Enter at the ORB level (or next candle open if you're late)
Place stop loss where the red line indicates
Take profit at TP1 (50% of position) and TP2 (remaining 50%)
### For Advanced Traders - Customized Setup
Choose which ORB stages to track (you might only want ORB15 and ORB30)
Enable filters: Volume (stocks) or Trend (trending markets)
Enable FVG filter for institutional confirmation
Set "Track Cycles" mode to catch retests and re-breakouts
Customize stop loss method (ATR for volatile stocks, ORB% for stable ones)
Adjust risk per trade and account size for accurate position sizing
Advanced Strategy Example:
Enable ORB15 only (disable others for cleaner chart)
Turn on Volume filter at 1.5x with Strong at 2.5x
Enable Trend filter using VWAP
Set Signal Mode to "Track Cycles" with Max 3 cycles
Wait for aligned breakouts (Volume + Trend + Direction)
Enter on retest if you missed the initial break
### Timeframe Recommendations
5-minute chart: Scalping, very active trading, crypto
15-minute chart: Day trading, balanced approach (most popular)
30-minute chart: Swing entries, less screen time
60-minute chart: Position trading, longer holds
The indicator works on any intraday timeframe, but ORB is fundamentally a day trading strategy. Daily charts don't make sense for ORB.

## Tips & Best Practices
### General Trading Tips
ORB works best on liquid instruments (stocks with good volume, major crypto pairs)
First hour of the session is most important - that's when ORB is forming
Breakouts WITH the trend have higher success rates - use the trend filter
Failed breakouts are common - use the "Min Bars Outside" setting to filter weak moves
Not every day produces good ORB setups - be patient and selective
### Position Sizing Best Practices
Never risk more than 1-2% of your account on a single trade
Use the built-in calculator - don't guess your position size
Update your account size monthly as it grows
Smaller accounts: use $ Amount mode for simplicity
Larger accounts: use % of Account mode for scaling
### Take Profit Strategy
Most traders use: 50% at TP1, 50% at TP2
Aggressive: Hold through TP1 for TP2 or TP3
Conservative: Full exit at TP1 (1:1 risk/reward)
After TP1 hits, consider moving stop to breakeven
TP3 rarely hits - only on strong trending days
### Filter Combinations
Maximum Quality: Volume + Trend + FVG (fewest signals, highest quality)
Balanced: Volume + Trend (good quality, reasonable frequency)
Active Trading: No filters or Volume only (many signals, lower quality)
Trending Markets: Trend filter essential (indices, crypto)
Range-Bound: Volume + FVG (avoid trend filter)
### Common Mistakes to Avoid
Chasing breakouts - wait for the bar to close, don't FOMO into wicks
Ignoring the stop loss - always use it, move it manually if needed
Over-leveraging - the calculator shows MAX shares, you can buy less
Trading every signal - quality > quantity, use filters
Not tracking results - keep a journal to see what works for YOU

## Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why are no signals appearing?
A: Check that you're on an intraday timeframe (5min, 15min, etc.) and that the current time is within your session hours. Also verify that "Enable Breakout Detection" is ON and at least one ORB stage is enabled. If using filters, they might be blocking signals - try disabling them temporarily.
Q: What's the best ORB stage to use?
A: ORB15 (15 minutes) is most popular and balanced. ORB5 gives faster signals but more noise. ORB30 and ORB60 are slower but more reliable. Many traders use ORB15 + ORB30 together.
Q: Should I enable all the filters?
A: Start with no filters to see all signals. If too many false signals, add Volume filter first (stocks) or Trend filter (trending markets). FVG filter is most restrictive - use for maximum quality but fewer signals.
Q: How do I know which stop loss method to use?
A: ATR works for most cases - it adapts to volatility. Use ORB% if you want predictable stop placement. Swing is for respecting chart structure. Safer gives you the most room but largest risk.
Q: Can I use this for swing trading?
A: Not really - ORB is fundamentally an intraday strategy. The ranges reset each day. For swing trading, look at weekly support/resistance or moving averages instead.
Q: Why do TP/SL lines disappear sometimes?
A: Lines freeze (stop extending) when: stop loss is hit, the last enabled take-profit is hit, or end of session arrives (if "Freeze at EOD" is enabled). This is intentional - the trade is complete.
Q: What's the difference between "First Only" and "Track Cycles"?
A: "First Only" shows one breakout UP and one DOWN per day maximum - clean but might miss opportunities. "Track Cycles" shows breakout-retest-rebreak sequences - more signals but busier chart.
Q: Is position sizing accurate for options/forex?
A: The calculator is designed for shares (stocks). For options, ignore the share count and use the risk amount. For forex, you'll need to adapt the lot size calculation manually.
Q: How much capital do I need to use this?
A: The indicator works for any account size, but practical day trading typically requires $25,000 in the US due to Pattern Day Trader rules. Adjust the "Account Size" setting to match your capital.
Q: Can I backtest this strategy?
A: This is an indicator, not a strategy script, so it doesn't have built-in backtesting. You can visually review historical signals or code a strategy script using similar logic.
Q: Why does the dashboard show different entry price than the breakout label?
A: If you're looking at an old breakout, the ORB levels may have changed when the next stage completed. The dashboard always shows the CURRENT active range and trade setup.
Q: What's a good win rate to expect?
A: ORB strategies typically see 40-60% win rate depending on market conditions and filters used. The strategy relies on positive risk/reward ratios (2:1 or better) to be profitable even with moderate win rates.
Q: Does this work on crypto?
A: Yes, but crypto trades 24/7 so you need to define what "session start" means. Use Session Mode = Custom and set your preferred daily reset time (e.g., 0000-2359 UTC).

VMS Momentum Trend Matrix Indicator [09.00 to 23.30]VMS Momentum Trend Matrix Indicator - Detailed Explanation
🎯 Overview & Core Philosophy
This is a multi-dimensional trading and a multi-confirmation system that combines 4 independent analytical approaches into one unified framework. The indicator operates on the principle of "consensus trading" - where signals are only considered reliable when multiple systems confirm each other. The system is designed for 9:00 AM to 23:30 PM trading sessions (Indian Market) with dynamic support/resistance levels.
Five Pillars of Analysis:
1. Trend Matrix – Multiple indicator voting system
2. Momentum Suite – Multiple Hybrid oscillator
3. Volume Analysis - Buy/sell pressure quantification
4. Key Level Identification - Dynamic support/resistance
5. EMA Trend: Indicates the overall long-term direction.
📊 DASHBOARD INTERPRETATION - ROW BY ROW
ROW 1: Indicator Name and Cell background colour changes with Trend Matrix
ROW 2: EMA ANALYSIS (It analyses independently and does not combine this analysis with the Combined Analysis and Trading View. Background Colour on price chart is based on this)
Purpose: Long-term trend identification using Exponential Moving Averages
What to Watch:
• Major Trend: Overall market direction (Bullish/Bearish/Neutral)
• Bullish Condition: All EMAs aligned upward
• Bearish Condition: All EMAs aligned downward
• Neutral: Mixed alignment
Trading Significance:
• Trading Condition: Current bias based on EMA alignment
• Bullish Market: Focus on LONG positions only
• Bearish Market: Focus on SHORT positions only
• Neutral Market: Wait for clearer direction
ROW 3-4: KEY LEVELS
Purpose: Dynamic support and resistance identification
Levels to Monitor:
• VMS Line-1 (Support): Dynamic Support for long positions
• VMS Line-2 (Resistance): Dynamic Resistance for short positions
• Up/Down: Daily base levels from opening price calculations
• Up: Daily support level based on opening price
• Down: Daily resistance level based on opening price
How Levels Work:
• Wait for Line-1 and 2 Crossing
• In the Upward movement, Line-1 will move with the price, and Line-2 will be moved as a straight line
• In the Downward movement, Line-2 will move with the price, and Line-2 will be moved as a straight line
• Provide clear entry/exit points
• If the price is between these levels, it is mostly a sideways market. After the Upward movement, if the price crosses Line-1 and other bearish conditions are supported, a short position can be taken. And in the Downward movement, it is the reverse condition.
• If the price is above the up level, it can be considered as bullish and below as bearish
ROW 5-6: VOLUME ANALYSIS
Purpose: Measure buying vs selling pressure
Key Metrics:
• Total Buy Volume: Cumulative buying pressure
• Total Sell Volume: Cumulative selling pressure
• Bullish Candles: Number of up-candles in session
• Bearish Candles: Number of down-candles in session
Interpretation:
• Buy Volume > Sell Volume: Bullish sentiment
• Sell Volume > Buy Volume: Bearish sentiment
• Bullish Candles Dominating: Upward momentum
• Bearish Candles Dominating: Downward momentum
ROW 7-8: MOMENTUM SUITE (Background colour of Oscillator is based on this)
Purpose: Short-term momentum strength and direction
Critical Components:
• Direction: Current momentum (BULLISH/BEARISH)
• Strength: 0-100% strength measurement
• Bullish Height: Positive momentum magnitude

Check EMA alignment and Combined Bias
Step 2: Momentum Strength
Verify Momentum Strength ≥ 40% and direction matches trend
Step 3: Volume Confirmation
Confirm volume supports the direction
Step 4: Matrix Consensus
Ensure Trend Matrix agrees (Net Score ≥ |3|)
Step 5: Price Position
Verify price is on the correct side of key levels
Step 6: Entry Execution
Enter on a pullback to support/resistance with a stop loss
________________________________________
This system works best when you wait for all conditions to align. Patience is key - only trade when all systems confirm the same direction with adequate strength. The multiple confirmation layers significantly increase the probability of success but reduce trading frequency.
GRG/RGR Signal, MA, Ranges and PivotsThis indicator is a combination of several indicators.
It is a combination of two of my indicators which I solely use for trading
1. EMA 10-20-50-200, Pivots and Previous Day/Week/Month range
2. 3/4-Bar GRG / RGR Pattern (Conditional 4th Candle)
You can use them individually if you already have some of them or just use this one. Belive me when I say, this is all you need, along with market structure knowlege and even if you don’t have that, this indicator has been doing wonders for me. This is all I use. I do not use anything else.
**Note - Do checkout the indicators individually as I have added valuable information in the comment section.
It contains the following,
1. 10 EMA/SMA - configurable
2. 20 EMA/SMA - configurable
3. 50 EMA/SMA - configurable
4. 200 EMA/SMA - configurable
5. Previous Day's Range - configurable
6. Previous Week's Range - configurable
7. Previous Month's Range - configurable
8. Pivots - configurable
9. Buy Sell Signal - configurable
The Moving Averages
It is a very important combination and using it correctly with price action will strengthen your entries and exits.
The ema's or sma's added are the most powerful ones and they do definitely act as support and resistance.
The Daily/Weekly/Monthly Ranges
The Daily/Weekly/Monthly ranges are extremely important for any trader and should be used for targets and reversals.
Pivots
Pivots can provide support and resistance level. R5 and S5 can be used to check for over stretched conditions. You can customise them however you like. It is a full pivot indicator.
It is defaulted to show R5 and S5 only to reduce noise in the chart but it can be customised.
The 3/4 RGR or GRG Signal Generator
Combined with a 3/4 RGR or GRG setup can be all a trader needs.
You don't need complex strategies and SMC concepts to trade. Simple EMAs, ranges and RGR/GRG setup is the most winning combination.
This indicator can be used to identify the Green-Red-Green or Red-Green-Red pattern.
It is a price action indicator where a price action which identifies the defeat of buyers and sellers.
If the buyers comprehensively defeat the sellers then the price moves up and if the sellers defeat the buyers then the price moves down.
In my trading experience this is what defines the price movement.
It is a 3 or 4 candle pattern, beyond that i.e, 5 or more candles could mean a very sideways market and unnecessary signal generation.
How does it work?
Upside/Green signal
1. Say candle 1 is Green, which means buyers stepped in, then candle 2 is Red or a Doji, that means sellers brought the price down. Then if candle 3 is forming to be Green and breaks the closing of the 1st candle and opening of the 2nd candle, then a green arrow will appear and that is the place where you want to take your trade.
2. Here the buyers defeated the sellers.
3. Sometimes candle 3 falls short but candle 4 breaks candle 1's closing and candle 2's opening price. We can enter on candle 4.
4. Important - We need to enter the trade as soon as the price moves above the candle 1 and 2's body and should not wait for the 3rd or 4th candle to close. Ignore wicks.
5. But for a more optimised entry I have added an option to use candle’s highs and lows instead of open and close. This reduces lot of noise and provides us with more precise entry. This setting is turned on by default.
6. I have restricted it to 4 candles and that is all that is needed. More than that is a longer sideways market.
7. I call it the +-+ or GRG pattern or Green-Red-Green or Buyer-Seller-Buyer or Seller defeated or just Buyer pattern.
8. Stop loss can be candle 2's mid for safe traders (that includes me) or candle 2's body low for risky traders.
9. Back testing suggests that body low will be useless and result in more points in loss because for the bigger move this point will not be touched, so why not get out faster.
Downside/Red signal
1. Say candle 1 is Red, which means sellers stepped in, then candle 2 is Green or a Doji, that means buyers took the price up. Then if candle 3 is forming to be Red and breaks the closing of the 1st candle and opening of the 2nd candle then a Red arrow will appear and that is the place where you want to take your trade.
2. Sometimes candle 3 falls short but candle 4 breaks candle 1's closing and candle 2's opening price. We can enter on candle 4.
3. We need to enter the trade as soon as the price moves below the candle 1 and 2's body and should not wait for the 3rd or 4th candle to close.
4. But for a more optimised entry I have added an option to use candle’s highs and lows instead of open and close. This reduces lot of noise and provides us with more precise entry. This setting is turned on by default.
5. I have restricted it to 4 candles and that is all that is needed. More than that is a longer sideways market.
6. I call it the -+- or RGR pattern or Red-Green-Red or Seller-Buyer-Seller or Buyer defeated or just Seller pattern.
7. Stop loss can be candle 2's mid for safe traders ( that includes me) or candle 2's body high for risky traders.
8. Back testing suggests that body high will be useless and result in more points in loss because for the bigger move this point will not be touched, so why not get out faster.
Combining Indicators and Signal
Combining these indicators with GRG/RGR signal can be very powerful and can provide big moves.
1. MA crossover and Signal - This is very powerful and provides a very big move. Trades can be held for longer. If after taking the trade we notice that the MA crossover has happened then trades can be held for higher targets.
2. Pivots and Signal - Pivots and add a support or resistance point. Take profits on these points. R5/S5 are over streched conditions so we can start looking for reversal signals and ignore other signals
3. Intraday Range - first 1, 5, 15 min of the day - Sideways days is when price will stay in these ranges. You can take profits at these ranges or if the range is broken and we get a signal, then it can mean that the direction will be sustained.
4. Previous Day/Week/Month Ranges - These can be used as Take Profit points if the price is moving towards them after getting the signal. If the range is broken and we get a signal then it can be a strong signal. They can also be used as reversal points if a strong signal is generated.
Important Settings
1. Include 4th Candle Confirmation - You can enable or disable the 4th candle signal to avoid the noise, but at times I have noticed that the 4th candle gives a very strong signal or I can say that the strong signal falls on the 4th candle. This is mostly a coincidence.
2. Bars to check (default 10) - You can also configure how many previous bars should the signal be generated for. 10 to 30 is good enough. To backtest increase it to 2000 or 5000 for example.
3. Use Candle High/Low for confirmation instead of Candle Open/Close - More optimized entry and noise reduction. This option is now defaulted to false.
4. Show Green-Red-Green (bull) signals - Show only bull entries. Useful when I have a predefined view i.e, I know market is going to go up today.
5. Show Red-Green-Red (bear) signals - Show only bear entries. Useful when I have a predefined view i.e, I know market is going to go down today.
6. 3rd candle should be a Strong candle before considering 4th candle - This will enforce additional logic in 4 candle setup that the 3rd candle is the candle in our direction of breakout. This means something like GRGG is mandatory, which is still the default behaviour. If disabled, the 3rd candle can be any candle and 4th candle will act as our breakout candle. This behaviour has led to breakouts and breakdowns as times, hence I added this as a separate feature. Vice-versa for a RGGR.
For a 4 candle setup till now we were expecting GRGG or RGRR but we can let the system ignore the 3rd candle completely if needed.
This will result in additional signals.
7. Three intraday ranges added for index and stock traders - 1 min, 5 min and 15 min ranges will be displayed. These are disabled by default except 15 min. These are very important ranges and in sideways days the price will usually move within the 15 min. A breakout of this range and a positive signal can be a very powerful setup.
Safe traders can avoid taking a trade in this range as it can lead to fakeouts.
The line style, width, color and opacity are configurable.
Pointers/Golden Rules
1. If after taking the trade, the next candle moves in your direction and closes strong bullish or bearish, then move SL to break even and after that you can trail it.
2. If a upside trade hits SL and immediately a down side trade signal is generated on the next candle then take it. Vice versa is true.
3. Trades need to be taken on previous 2 candle's body high or low combined and not the wicks.
4. The most losses a trader takes is on a sideways day and because in our strategy the stop loss is so small that even on a sideways day we'll get out with a little profit or worst break even.
5. Hold trades for longer targets and don't panic.
6. If last 3-4 days have been sideways then there is a good probability that today will be trending so we can hold our trade for longer targets. Inverse is true when the market has been trending for 2-3 days then volatility followed by sideways is coming (DOW theory). Target to hold the trade for whole day and not exit till the day closes.
7. In general avoid trading in the middle of the day for index and stocks. Divide the day into 3 parts and avoid the middle.
8. Use Support/Resistance, 10, 20, 50, 200 EMA/SMA, Gaps, Whole/Round numbers(very imp) for identifying targets.
9. Trail your SL.
10. For indexes I would use 5 min and 15 min timeframe and at times 10 mins.
11. For commodities and crypto we can use higher timeframe as well. Look for signals during volatile time durations and avoid trading the whole day. Signal usually gives good targets on those times.
12. If a GRG or RGR pattern appears on a daily timeframe then this is our time to go big.
13. Minimum Risk to Reward should be 1:2 and for longer targets can be 1:4 to 1:10.
14. Trade with small lot size. Money management will happen automatically.
15. With small lot size and correct Risk-Reward we can be very profitable. Don't trade with big lot size.
16. Stay in the market for longer and collect points not money.
17. Very imp - Watch market and learn to generate a market view.
18. Very imp - Only 3 type of candles are needed in trading -
Strong Bullish (Big Green candle), Strong Bearish (Big Red candle),
Hammer (it is Strong Bullish), Inverse Hammer (it is Strong Bearish)
and Doji (indecision or confusion).
If on daily timeframe I see Strong Bullish candle previous day then I am biased to the upside the next day, if I see Strong Bearish candle the previous day then I am biased to the downside the next day, if I see Doji on the previous day then I am cautious the next day, if there are back to back Dojis forming in daily or weekly then I am preparing for big move so time to go big once I get the signal.
19. Most Important Candlestick pattern - Bullish and Bearish Engulfing
20. The only Chart patterns I need -
a) Falling Wedge/Channel Bullish Pattern Uptrend or Bull Flag - Buying - Forming over a couple days for intraday and forming over a couple of weeks for swing
b) Falling Wedge/Channel Bullish Pattern Downtrend or Falling Channel - Buying
c) Rising Wedge Bearish Pattern Uptrend or Rising Channel - Selling
d) Rising Wedge Bearish Pattern Downtrend or Bear flag - Selling
e) Head and Shoulder - Over a longer period not for intraday. In 15 min takes few days and for swing 1hr or 4h or daily can take few days
f) M and W pattern - Reversal Patterns - They form within the above 4 patterns, usually resulting in the break of trend line
21. How Gaps work -
a) Small Gap up in Uptrend - Market can fill the gap and reverse. The perception is that people are buying. If previous day candle was Strong Bullish then market view is up.
b) Big Gap up in Uptrend - Not news driven - Profit booking will come but may not fill the entire gap
c) Big Gap up in Uptrend - News driven, war related, tax, interest rate - Market can keep going up without stopping.
c) Flat opening in Uptrend - Big chance of market going up. If previous day candle was Strong Bullish then view is upwards, if it was Doji then still upwards.
d) Gap down in Uptrend - Market is surprised. After going down initially it can go up
e) Small Gap down in Downtrend - Market can fill the gap and keep moving down. If previous day candle was Strong Bearish then view is still down.
f) Flat opening in Downtrend - View is down, short today.
g) Big Gap down in Downtrend - Profit booking and foolish buying will come but market view is still down.
h) Gap down with News - Volatility, sideways then down.
i) Gap Up in Downtrend - Can move up - Price can move up during 2/3rd of the day and End of the day revert and close in red.
22. Go big on bearish days for option traders. Puts are better bought and Calls are better sold.
23. Cluster of green signals can lead to bigger move on the upside and vice versa for red signals.
24. Most of this is what I learned from successful traders (from the top 2%) only the indicator is mine.
Force of Strategy (FoS, Multi TF/TA, Backtest, Alerts)Introducing the FoS Trading System
A comprehensive and innovative solution designed for both novice and experienced traders to enhance their intraday trading.
The basic idea of creating this script is to stay profitable in any market
Key Features:
There are over 25 no-repaint strategies for generating buy and sell signals to choose from
10 symbols for simultaneous trading
Webhook alerts in TTA format (tradingview to anywhere) pre-configured to send messages for trading cross-margin futures on major Crypto Exchanges: Binance, Bitget, BingX, Bybit, GateIO and OKX
A unique automated "Strategy switcher" feature for backtesting and live trading—not just a specific strategy, but the logic behind choosing a trading one or another strategy based on backtesting data obtained in real time
Advanced risk management options and backtest result metrics
Higher Timeframe filters (Technical Rating, ADX, Volatility) and ability for check backtest results with 9 main higher timeframes
Buy and sell signals are generated using TradingView Technical Ratings, indicators with adaptive length algorithms and various classic indicators with standard settings to avoid overfitting
Next, I will describe in detail what this script does and what settings it operates with:
"All Strategies" off
- In the global settings block, as shown in the main chart screenshot, you select how long the script will perform backtests in days, with a limitation on the number of bars for calculations. This limitation is necessary to maintain an acceptable calculation speed. You also choose which two higher timeframes we will use for signal and filters when confirming the opening of trades
- With "All Strategies" off - as in the example on the main chart screenshot, trading is carried out by strategy #1 on 10 selected tickers simultaneously. By default, I selected the 9 top-capitalized cryptocurrencies on the Bitget exchange and the chart symbol. You can change that choice of 9 non chart opened instruments and # strategy for each them
- The first row in the table 1 shows some of the main choosen script settings, in attached example: initial capital 20$, leverage 50L, 20 backtest days, 3$ is invest in one deal, 60m - is chart timeframe, next 60m is higher timeframe 1 and last 90m is higher timeframe 2. In first column you see shortened to 5 characters ticker names
- The exchange name in the second row determines the alert messages format
I've attached another example of trading with setting "All strategies" off in the image below. In this example, trading 10 standard symbols on an hourly timeframe, 2 coins from 10: 1000SATS and DOGE have generated a profit of over $65 over the past 20 days using strategy #4
Can you browse a wide range of trading instruments and select the 10 best strategies and settings for future trading? Of course, trading is what this script is do!
The parameters in the table 1 mean the following:
TR - count of closed trading deals
WR - Winning Rate, PF - Profit Factor
MDD - Max Draw Down for all calculated time from initial capital
R$ - trading profit result in usd
The parameters in the table 2 is just more metrics for chart symbol:
PT - result in usd Per one Trade
PW - result Per Win, PL - result Per Lose
ROI - Rate of Investments
SR - Sharpe Ratio, MR - CalMAR ration
Tx - Commision Fee in Usd
R$ - trading profit result in usd again
Table 2 separate trade results of backtesting for longs and shorts. In first column you see how many USD were invested in one trade, taking into account possible position splitting (will be discussed in more detail in the risk management section)
Settings:
"All Strategies" on, "Check Last" off
When "All Strategies" is active, trading changed from 10 symbols and one strategy to all strategies and one chart symbol. If option "Check Last" is inactive you will see backtest results for each of strategy in backtest setting days. This is useful, for example, if you want to see backtest results under different settings over a long period of time for calibrating risk management or entry rules
"All Strategies" on, "Check Last" on
- If "All Strategies" and "Check Last" is active trading will occur on the chart symbol only for those strategies that meet the criteria of the settings block for the enabled "All Strategies" option. For example your criteria is: for last 5 trades for all strategies, open next trade only on strategy which reached ROI 25% and WinRate 50%. When strategy with this setting criteria receive Buy or Sell Signal this trade will be opened, and when trade will be close "check last" will repeat. This feature i called "Strategy switcher"
-In Table 1 if strategy meet criteria you will see "Ok" label, if strategy meet criteria and have maximum from other reached ROI they labeled "Best". Chart strategy labeled "Chart", Chart and Ok labels in one time is "Chart+", "Chart" and "Best" is labeled "Best+"
- The color in the first column of table 1 indicates that the strategy is currently in an open position: green means an open long position, red means an open short position.
In picture bellow you will see good example for trading with check results for last 10 trades, and make desicion for trading when criteries 0.25 ROI and WinRate 50% reached for Top 2 by ROI strategies from all list of them. This example of trading logic in last 20 days (include periods when strategy don't arise 10 trades) give a profit $30+. At the bottom of the screen, you can see Labels with the numbers of the strategies that opened the trades. In this example, trades were primarily opened using strategy number 2, and the second most effective strategy after the 20-day backtest was strategy number 9
Who can promise you'll make a profit of $30 in the next 20 days with a drawdown of no more than $8 from the initial $20 with invest in one trade just 2.7$? No one. But this script guarantees that in the future it will repeat the same logic of switching trading strategies that brought profit over the last 20 days
Risk management options
- When a buy or sell trade is opened, you'll see three lines on the chart: a red stop-loss line (SL), a green take-profit line (TP), and a blue line representing the entry price. The trade will be closed if the high price or low price reaches the line TP or SL (no wait for bar close) and alert will be triggered once per bar when script recalculates
- Several options are available to control the behavior of SL/TP lines, such as stop-loss by percentage, ATR, or Highest High (HH) and Lowest Low (LL). Take Profit can be in percent, ATR or in Risk Reward ratio. There some Trailing Stop with start trail trigger options, like ATR, percent or HH / LL
- Additionally, in risk managment settings a function has been implemented for adding a position when the breakeven level expressed in the current ROI is reached for opened trade (splitting position). The position is added within the bar.
- Webhook alerts in TTA format with message contained next info : Buy / Sell or adding Quantity, Leverage, SL price, TP price and close trade
Keep in mind if the stop-loss changed when adding a position, the stop-loss will not be able to be higher than the current bar's low price, regardless of your settings, as backtest trades do not use intra-bar data, in this situation SL will be correct at next bar (but alert message don't be sended twice). And please note that this script does not have an option to simultaneously open trades in different directions. Only 1 trade can be opened for 1 trading instrument at a time
Backtest Engine
Backtest is a very important part of this script. Here describe how its calculate:
- Profit or Loss is USD: close trade price * open trade quantity - open trade price * open trade quantity - open trade quantity * (open trade price + close trade price)/2 * commision fee
Possible slippage or alert sending delay needed to be include in commission % which you will set in risk managment settings block, default settings is 0.15% (0,06% for open, 0,06% for close and 0,03% for possible slippage or additional fees)
- Maximum Draw Down: Drawdown = (peak - current equity) / peak * 100 ;
Drawdown > maxDrawdown ? maxDrawdown = Drawdown
- ROI: profit result in USD / sum of all positions margin
- CalMAR Ratio: ROI / (-MaxDrawDown)
- Sharpe Ratio: ROI / standard deviation for (Sum of all Profits and Loses) / (Sum of all Position Margins)
This description was added because in metrics i don't use parameters like "The risk-free rate of return". Keep in mind how exactly this script calculate profit and perfomance when adjusting key criteria in the strategy switching parameters block of script settings
Strategies itself
For trading, you can enable or disable various Higher Timeframes Filters (ADX, volatility, technical rating).
With filters enabled, trades will only open when the setting parameters are reached
- Strategy number 1, 2 and 3: is Higher Timeframe TradingView Technical Ratings itself, 1 is summary total rating, 2 is oscillators and 3 is moving averages. When TR filter cross filter levels trade will be open at chart bar close. By Default on chart you see Summary Technical Rating oscillator, but here the options for change it to Oscillator TR or Moving Average TR
- Strategy number 4, 5 and 6: is Chart TimeFrame TR. Trades will open when its values (Summary, Oscillators and Moving Averages) reached setting buy sell level
- Strategy number 7, 8 and 9: is Alternative buy sell logic for Chart TimeFrame TR, trades will open when counting rising or falling values will be reached
- Strategies with number from 10 to 18: is chosen by user adaptive moving averages and oscillators indicators. There in settings you will see many different adaptive length algorithms for trading and different types of moving averages and oscillators. In tooltips in settings you will find very more information, and in settings you will see list of all indicators and algorithms (more than 30 variations). All adaptive strategies have their options in settings for calibrating and plotting
- Strategies with number from 19: its can't be chosen or calibarted, this is needed for avoid overfitting, i try to found mostly time worked strategies and use its with standard settings. In future it's possible to changing current or adding additional strategies. At the time of publication this script uses: Dynamic Swing HH LL (19), Composite indicator (20), %R Exhausting with different signals (21,22,23), Pivot Point SuperTrend (24), Ichimoku Cloud (25), TSI (26), Fib Level RSI (27). I don't plot classic strategies in this script
Let me explain, the value of this script is not in the strategies it includes, but in how exactly it collects the results of their work, how it filters the opening of trades, what risk management it applies and what strategy switching logic it performs. The system itself that you are now reading about represents the main value of this script
Finally if you get access for this script
- You will see many other not described options and possibilities like Kelly position or list of settings for adaptive strategies, also i added many usefull tooltips in script settings
Happy trading, and stay tuned for updates!

Signal Tester EN [Abusuhil]Signal Tester - Complete Description
Overview
Signal Tester is a comprehensive trading tool designed to backtest and analyze external trading signals with advanced risk management capabilities. The indicator provides seven different calculation methods for stop-loss and take-profit levels, along with detailed performance statistics and real-time tracking of active trades.
Important Disclaimer: This indicator is a tool for analysis and education purposes only. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Always conduct your own research and consider seeking advice from a qualified financial advisor before making trading decisions.
Key Features
7 Calculation Methods for customizable risk management
External Signal Integration via any oscillator or indicator
Real-time Trade Tracking with visual entry/exit points
Comprehensive Statistics Table showing win rate, profit/loss, and active trades
Date Filtering for focused backtesting periods
Custom Alerts for new buy signals
Multi-Target System with up to 5 take-profit levels
How to Use
Step 1: Connect External Signal
The indicator requires an external signal source to generate buy signals.
Add your preferred indicator to the chart (RSI, MACD, Stochastic, custom indicator, etc.)
In Signal Tester settings, locate "External Indicator" input
Click the input and select your indicator's plot line
Buy signals are generated when the external source crosses above zero
Example: If using RSI, connect the RSI line. A buy signal triggers when RSI crosses above the zero reference (if plotted as oscillator).
Step 2: Choose Your Calculation Method
Select one of seven methods under "Calculation Method":
1. Percentage %
The simplest method using fixed percentage values.
Settings:
Stop Loss %: Distance from entry to stop-loss (default: 2%)
Target 1-5 %: Distance from entry to each take-profit level
Example: Entry at $100
Stop Loss (2%): $98
Target 1 (2%): $102
Target 2 (4%): $104
Best For: Beginners, markets with consistent volatility
2. ATR Multiplier
Uses Average True Range for dynamic levels based on market volatility.
Settings:
ATR Period: Calculation period (default: 14)
Stop Multiplier: ATR multiplier for stop-loss (default: 1.5)
Target Multipliers: ATR multipliers for each take-profit
Example: Entry at $100, ATR = $2
Stop Loss (1.5x ATR): $100 - $3 = $97
Target 1 (2x ATR): $100 + $4 = $104
Best For: Volatile markets, adapting to changing conditions
3. Risk:Reward Ratio
Calculates targets based on risk-to-reward ratios.
Settings:
Stop Loss %: Initial risk percentage
Target Ratios: R:R ratio for each target (1:1.5, 1:2, 1:3, etc.)
Example: Entry at $100, Stop at $98 (2% risk = $2)
Target 1 (1:1.5): $100 + ($2 × 1.5) = $103
Target 2 (1:2): $100 + ($2 × 2) = $104
Target 3 (1:3): $100 + ($2 × 3) = $106
Best For: Traders focused on risk management and position sizing
4. Swing High/Low
Places stop-loss at recent swing low with targets as multiples of the risk.
Settings:
Swing Lookback Candles: Number of bars to find swing low (default: 5)
Stop Safety Distance %: Buffer below swing low
Target Multipliers: Risk multiples for each target
Example: Entry at $105, Swing Low at $100
Stop Loss: $100 - 0.1% = $99.90 (risk = $5.10)
Target 1 (1.5x): $105 + ($5.10 × 1.5) = $112.65
Best For: Swing traders, respecting market structure
5. Partial Take Profit
Sells portions of the position at each target level, moving stop to entry after first target.
Settings:
Stop Loss %: Initial stop distance
Target 1-5 %: Price levels for partial exits
Sell % at TP1-4: Percentage of position to close at each level
Example: 100% position, 50% sell at each target
TP1 hit: Sell 50%, remaining 50%, stop moves to entry
TP2 hit: Sell 25% (50% of remaining), remaining 25%
TP3 hit: Sell 12.5%, remaining 12.5%
Best For: Conservative traders, locking in profits gradually
6. Trailing Stop
Similar to Partial Take Profit but trails the stop-loss to each achieved target.
Settings:
Stop Loss %: Initial stop distance
Target 1-5 %: Price levels for trailing stops
Sell % at TP1-4: Percentage to close at each level
Example:
TP1 ($102) hit: Sell 50%, stop trails to $102
TP2 ($104) hit: Sell 25%, stop trails to $104
Price retraces to $104: Exit with locked profits
Best For: Trend followers, maximizing profit in strong moves
7. Smart Exit
Advanced method that moves stop to entry after first target, then exits based on technical conditions.
Settings:
Stop Loss %: Initial stop distance
First Target %: When hit, stop moves to breakeven
Exit Method: Choose from 8 exit strategies
Exit Methods:
Close < EMA 21: Exits when price closes below 21-period EMA
Close < MA 20: Exits when price closes below 20-period Moving Average
Supertrend Flip: Exits when Supertrend indicator flips bearish
ATR Trailing Stop: Dynamic trailing stop based on ATR
MACD Crossover: Exits on MACD bearish crossover
RSI < 50: Exits when RSI drops below specified level
Parabolic SAR Flip: Exits when SAR flips above price
Bollinger Bands: Exits when price closes below middle or lower band
Best For: Advanced traders, letting winners run with protection
Date Filtering
Control which trades are included in backtesting.
Filter Types:
Specific Date: Only trades after selected date
Number of Weeks: Last X weeks (default: 12)
Number of Months: Last X months (default: 3)
How to Enable:

VMS Momentum Trend Matrix Indicator [09.15 to 15.30]VMS Momentum Trend Matrix Indicator - Detailed Explanation
🎯 Overview & Core Philosophy
This is a multi-dimensional trading and a multi-confirmation system that combines 4 independent analytical approaches into one unified framework. The indicator operates on the principle of "consensus trading" - where signals are only considered reliable when multiple systems confirm each other. The system is designed for 9:15 AM to 3:30 PM trading sessions (Indian Market) with dynamic support/resistance levels.
Five Pillars of Analysis:
1. Trend Matrix – Multiple indicator voting system
2. Momentum Suite – Multiple Hybrid oscillator
3. Volume Analysis - Buy/sell pressure quantification
4. Key Level Identification - Dynamic support/resistance
5. EMA Trend: Indicates the overall long-term direction.
📊 DASHBOARD INTERPRETATION - ROW BY ROW
ROW 1: Indicator Name and Cell background colour changes with Trend Matrix
ROW 2: EMA ANALYSIS (It analyses independently and does not combine this analysis with the Combined Analysis and Trading View. Background Colour on price chart is based on this)
Purpose: Long-term trend identification using Exponential Moving Averages
What to Watch:
• Major Trend: Overall market direction (Bullish/Bearish/Neutral)
• Bullish Condition: All EMAs aligned upward
• Bearish Condition: All EMAs aligned downward
• Neutral: Mixed alignment
Trading Significance:
• Trading Condition: Current bias based on EMA alignment
• Bullish Market: Focus on LONG positions only
• Bearish Market: Focus on SHORT positions only
• Neutral Market: Wait for clearer direction
ROW 3-4: KEY LEVELS
Purpose: Dynamic support and resistance identification
Levels to Monitor:
• VMS Line-1 (Support): Dynamic Support for long positions
• VMS Line-2 (Resistance): Dynamic Resistance for short positions
• Up/Down: Daily base levels from opening price calculations
• Up: Daily support level based on opening price
• Down: Daily resistance level based on opening price
How Levels Work:
• Wait for Line-1 and 2 Crossing
• In the Upward movement, Line-1 will move with the price, and Line-2 will be moved as a straight line
• In the Downward movement, Line-2 will move with the price, and Line-2 will be moved as a straight line
• Provide clear entry/exit points
• If the price is between these levels, it is mostly a sideways market. After the Upward movement, if the price crosses Line-1 and other bearish conditions are supported, a short position can be taken. And in the Downward movement, it is the reverse condition.
• If the price is above the up level, it can be considered as bullish and below as bearish
ROW 5-6: VOLUME ANALYSIS
Purpose: Measure buying vs selling pressure
Key Metrics:
• Total Buy Volume: Cumulative buying pressure
• Total Sell Volume: Cumulative selling pressure
• Bullish Candles: Number of up-candles in session
• Bearish Candles: Number of down-candles in session
Interpretation:
• Buy Volume > Sell Volume: Bullish sentiment
• Sell Volume > Buy Volume: Bearish sentiment
• Bullish Candles Dominating: Upward momentum
• Bearish Candles Dominating: Downward momentum
ROW 7-8: MOMENTUM SUITE (Background colour of Oscillator is based on this)
Purpose: Short-term momentum strength and direction
Critical Components:
• Direction: Current momentum (BULLISH/BEARISH)
• Strength: 0-100% strength measurement

________________________________________
⚠️ RISK MANAGEMENT RULES
Position Sizing:
• STRONG Signals (80-100% confidence): 100% normal position
• MODERATE Signals (60-79% confidence): 50-75% position
• WEAK Signals (40-59% confidence): 25% position or avoid
• VERY WEAK (<40% confidence): NO TRADE
Daily Loss Limits:
• Maximum 2% capital loss per day
• Maximum 3 consecutive losing trades
• Stop trading after the daily limit is reached
Trade Management:
• Never move the stop loss against a position
• Take partial profits at predetermined levels
• Never average down losing positions
• Respect all exit signals immediately
________________________________________
🔄 SIGNAL CONFIRMATION PROCESS
Step 1: Trend Direction
Check EMA alignment and Combined Bias
Step 2: Momentum Strength
Verify Momentum Strength ≥ 40% and direction matches trend
Step 3: Volume Confirmation
Confirm volume supports the direction
Step 4: Matrix Consensus
Ensure Trend Matrix agrees (Net Score ≥ |3|)
Step 5: Price Position
Verify price is on the correct side of key levels
Step 6: Entry Execution
Enter on a pullback to support/resistance with a stop loss
________________________________________
This system works best when you wait for all conditions to align. Patience is key - only trade when all systems confirm the same direction with adequate strength. The multiple confirmation layers significantly increase the probability of success but reduce trading frequency.
Lakshmi - Vajra Energy Signal (VES)Vajra Energy Signal (VES) is an advanced volume analysis indicator that detects energy accumulated inside the market.
When assessing the strength of trading activity, conventional practice looks at the magnitude of volume; VES is designed with the understanding that the same volume can have different meanings depending on the price range.
VES analyzes the complex relationship between price movement and volume with a proprietary algorithm and can detect internal market activities that are invisible from surface‑level price action, visualizing the characteristic whereby the value rises before a breakout.
In other words, VES views the market as an “energy system.” In the energy accumulation phase, relatively high volume occurs relative to the price range, and in the energy release phase, the stored energy is emitted as high volatility in price, that is, a breakout—this is the core concept on which VES is established.
⚡️ Basic Demonstration
i.imgur.com
As you can see in the image above, VES simply displays the highs and lows of energy stored in the market as a thin line in a separate panel.
It is easy for traders to understand its intuitive patterns: it rises when hidden buying accumulation or selling activity continue and sink when a price breakout occurs. It can be applied across symbols and markets (stocks, commodities, cryptocurrencies, spot, and futures). While reducing clutter in price scale labels, it also supports dynamic autoscaling.
⚡️ Practical Usage
VES is expected to be used for the following purposes.
- Entry signal
When the VES value continues to rise—i.e., during energy accumulation—it can be considered on standby for a breakout. After a breakout, a trader can confirm the trend direction and enter.
- Exit signal
If the VES value rises during a trend, consider the possibility of a reversal and consider taking profits.
- Risk management
If the VES value remains elevated for a long period, regard it as increased market uncertainty and an approaching breakout; adopt a cautious trading strategy to prepare for higher volatility and adjust position size.
For example, in the BINANCE:SOLUSDT daily chart below, VES clearly shows how it functions in short‑term trading.
i.imgur.com
In September 2023, when the price was moving around 20 USDT, VES formed frequent small spikes. These early spikes suggest that market participants were still in a wait‑and‑see mode and that small‑scale accumulation was being conducted intermittently.
A decisive change came in early October 2023. While the price still stagnated in the 20–25 USDT range, VES suddenly formed a huge spike. The scale of this spike was far larger than those in September 2023, clearly suggesting that hidden substantial trading activities by large investors had begun.
In mid‑October 2023, the price began to rise. It climbed stepwise from 25 USDT to 40 USDT, then to 60 USDT and 75 USDT, and then surged to above 120 USDT within just a few weeks. This suggests that the energy built in the buy accumulation phase in early October 2023 was converted into price appreciation.
Therefore, after such a large VES signal is observed and the price breaks upward, entering a long position could have been profitable.
A large VES reaction is not only a quiet “buy signal” as in the example above; it can also be a “sell signal.” Such a case is explained below using an example on the BTC chart.
i.imgur.com
This BITSTAMP:BTCUSD 4‑hour chart is a valuable example showing how VES detects top formation on a short timeframe. In the first half of February 2024, the price moved in a relatively narrow 96,000–99,000 USD range. During this period, VES remained stable at low levels, and the market continued a calm uptrend.
The first sign appeared on February 16, 2024. While the price still held around 97,000 USD, VES formed a clearly identifiable small spike. This implied that some large investors had begun to take profits, or that new sellers had started to build short positions. However, at that point, the impact on price was limited, and many traders may have overlooked the signal.
The decisive turning point came on February 23, 2024. With the price moving around 98,000 USD, VES suddenly formed a huge spike. The scale of this spike was far larger than previous moves, clearly indicating that significant energy was accumulating.
Importantly, even at this moment the price still remained at the highs. On the surface, price barely moved and the bull trend appeared intact, but VES detected a major internal change underway.
On February 24, 2024, the price collapsed and began to fall. It dropped about 15% from 97,000 USD to 82,000 USD in a few days. The speed and magnitude of this decline corroborated the quiet “sell signal” indicated by the VES spikes.
The key lesson from this chart is that a VES spike does not necessarily mean buy accumulation. A large VES spike formed at high prices may instead indicate a distribution phase—that is, large investors exiting or building short positions. When the price is at elevated levels, a VES spike should be considered not only as a precursor to further upside but also as a warning of potential downside.
From a trading‑strategy perspective, the huge VES spike on February 23, 2024 was a clear signal to exit or to consider entering short positions. At that point, traders should have either closed long positions or to consider building a short position. The moment when price started to decline from its peak was exactly the entry timing for a short.
On the 4‑hour timeframe, changes in VES appear faster and more dramatically. While this allows more agile responses, the risk of false signals is also higher; therefore, confirmation on other timeframes and comprehensive judgment with price action are essential.
VES is a powerful tool for reading internal market activities, and this chart clearly shows that its interpretation requires flexibility that takes into account market conditions and price location.
⚡️ Parameter Settings
Strength 1: The lower the number, the more it emphasizes responses closer to the present timeframe; the higher the number, the more it emphasizes responses farther from the present timeframe. 5 is recommended.
Strength 2: The lower the number, the greater the volatility of the value; the higher the number, the smaller the volatility. 5 is recommended.
Scale: Adjusts the display scale. −30 is recommended.
⚡️ Conclusion
Vajra Energy Signal (VES) visualizes the cycle of energy accumulation in the market from the relative relationship between price range and volume, detecting hidden activities by market participants that conventional volume analysis cannot capture. VES serves as a powerful auxiliary tool for early detection of turning points, enabling deeper market understanding and more accurate timing decisions. As the examples show, there is a possibility of sensing major price movements in advance. When using VES, flexible interpretation according to market environment and price location is required, and it demonstrates its true value when combined with price action and other analysis methods such as support/resistance.
⚡️ Important Notes
- VES is a tool that infers internal market energy; it does not guarantee trades or suggest future results.
- We strongly recommend using it together with price action analysis and support/resistance.
- Confirmation across different timeframes improves reliability.
- Effectiveness may vary depending on market conditions and liquidity.
- Very illiquid instruments or newly listed assets may produce more noise.

Katz Calypso Indicator (Refactored)Overview
The Katz Calypso Indicator is a comprehensive momentum oscillator designed to identify potential entry and exit points in the market. At its core, it uses the True Strength Index (TSI) to gauge the strength and direction of a trend. To enhance signal accuracy and reduce false positives, the indicator integrates several optional filters, including the Waddah Attar Explosion, an EMA filter, and an ATR filter. It also provides an optional RVGI-based exit signal system.
This tool is designed to provide a clear, visual representation of market momentum, with customizable filters to adapt to various trading styles and market conditions.
How to Use the Indicator
The indicator is displayed in a separate pane below the main price chart.
TSI Line (Blue): This is the main oscillator line. Its position relative to the zero line indicates the overall trend bias (above 0 is bullish, below is bearish).
Signal Line (Red): A moving average of the TSI line. Crossovers between the TSI and Signal Line are the primary triggers for trade signals.
Zero Line: The centerline of the oscillator. A cross of the Zero Line can indicate a significant shift in momentum.
Overbought/Oversold Levels: These user-defined levels (defaulting to 65 and -65) help identify potential exhaustion points in a trend, which can be used for taking profits.
On-Chart Signals: The indicator plots shapes directly on the chart to make signals easy to spot:
Green Triangles (Up): Indicate long entry or continuation signals.
Red Triangles (Down): Indicate short entry or continuation signals.
Yellow Triangles: Suggest taking profits.
Maroon/Lime Triangles: Indicate an exit based on a signal cross (like RVGI or the Zero Line).
Trading Rules
Long Trade Rules
Entry: A long trade is signaled when ALL of the following conditions are met:
The blue TSI Line crosses above the red Signal Line.
The blue TSI Line is above the 0 Zero Line.
All enabled filters (Waddah Attar, EMA, ATR) confirm bullish conditions.
A green triangle labeled "Long" will appear below the price.
Exit (Take Profit): A take-profit signal for a long trade is generated when either of these occurs:
The TSI Line crosses below the Overbought level.
The TSI Line crosses back below the Signal Line while still above zero.
A yellow triangle labeled "TPL" (Take Profit Long) will appear above the price.
Exit (Stop/Reverse): A signal to exit a long trade is generated when either of these occurs:
The TSI Line crosses below the 0 Zero Line.
The RVGI Exit filter is enabled and generates a bearish crossover signal.
A maroon triangle labeled "Exit Long" will appear above the price.
Short Trade Rules
Entry: A short trade is signaled when ALL of the following conditions are met:
The blue TSI Line crosses below the red Signal Line.
The blue TSI Line is below the 0 Zero Line.
All enabled filters (Waddah Attar, EMA, ATR) confirm bearish conditions.
A red triangle labeled "Short" will appear above the price.
Exit (Take Profit): A take-profit signal for a short trade is generated when either of these occurs:
The TSI Line crosses above the Oversold level.
The TSI Line crosses back above the Signal Line while still below zero.
A yellow triangle labeled "TPS" (Take Profit Short) will appear below the price.
Exit (Stop/Reverse): A signal to exit a short trade is generated when either of these occurs:
The TSI Line crosses above the 0 Zero Line.
The RVGI Exit filter is enabled and generates a bullish crossover signal.
A lime green triangle labeled "Exit Short" will appear below the price.
Optional Filters
You can enable or disable these filters in the indicator's settings to fine-tune its sensitivity.
Waddah Attar Explosion Filter: This filter measures trend strength and volatility. When enabled, it ensures that entries are only taken during periods of strong, confirmed momentum, helping to avoid sideways or choppy markets.
EMA Price Filter: A classic trend filter. When enabled, it will only allow long entries if the price is above the specified Exponential Moving Average and short entries only if the price is below it.
ATR Filter: This acts as a volatility-based filter to prevent chasing a move. It helps ensure that you are not entering a long trade when the price has already moved too far above its EMA, or vice-versa for a short trade.
RVGI Exit Filter: The Relative Vigor Index (RVGI) is used here exclusively as an exit signal. When enabled, a crossover of the RVGI and its signal line can provide an earlier exit signal before the TSI crosses the zero line, potentially locking in profits sooner.

Kio IQ [TradingIQ]Introducing: “Kio IQ ”
Kio IQ is an all-in-one trading indicator that brings momentum, trend strength, multi-timeframe analysis, trend divergences, pullbacks, early trend shift signals, and trend exhaustion signals together in one clear view.
🔶 The Philosophy of Kio IQ
Markets move in trends—and capturing them reliably is the key to consistency in trading. Without a tool to see the bigger picture, it’s easy to mistake a pullback for a breakout, a fakeout for the real deal, or random market noise as a meaningful price move.
Kio IQ cuts through that random market noise—scanning multiple timeframes, analyzing short, medium, and long-term momentum, and telling you on the spot whether a move is strong, weak, a trap, or simply a small move within a larger trend.
With Kio IQ, price action reveals its next move.
You’ll instantly see:
Which way it’s pushing — up, down, or stuck in the middle.
How hard it’s pushing — from fading weakness to full-blown strength.
When the gears are shifting — early warnings, explosive moves, smart pullbacks, or signs it’s running out of steam.
🔶 Why This Matters
Markets move in phases—sometimes they’re powering in one direction, sometimes they’re slowing down, and sometimes they’re reversing.
Knowing which phase you’re in can help you:
Avoid chasing a move that’s about to run out of steam.
Jump on a move when it’s just getting started.
Spot pullbacks inside a bigger trend (good for entries).
See when different timeframes are all pointing the same way.
🔶 What Kio IQ Shows You
Simple color-coded phases: “Strong Up,” “Up,” “Weak Up,” “Weak Down,” “Down,” “Strong Down.”
Clear visual signals
Full Shift: Strong momentum in one direction.
Half Shift: Momentum is building but not full power yet.
Pullback Shift: A small move against the trend that may be ending.
Early Scout / Lookout: First hints of a possible shift.
Exhaustion: Momentum is very stretched and may slow down.
Divergences: When price moves one way but momentum moves the opposite way—often a warning of a change.
Multi-Timeframe Table: See the trend strength for multiple timeframes (5m, current, 30m, 4h, 1D, and optional 1W/1M) all in one place.
Trend Strength %: A single number that tells you how strong the trend is across all timeframes.
Optional meters: A “momentum bar” and “trend strength gauge” for quick checks.
🔶 How It Works Behind the Scenes
Kio IQ measures price movement in different “speeds”:
Slow view: Big picture trend.
Medium view: The main engine for detecting the current phase.
Fast view: Catches recent changes in momentum.
Super-fast view: Finds tiny pullbacks inside the bigger move.
It compares these views to decide whether the market is strong up, weak up, weak down, strong down, or in between. Then it blends data from multiple timeframes so you see the whole picture, not just the current chart.
🔶 What You’ll See on the Chart
🔷 Full Shift Oscillator (FSO)
The image above highlights the Full Shift Oscillator (FSO).
The FSO is the cornerstone of Kio IQ, delivering mid-term momentum analysis. Using a proprietary formula, it captures momentum on a smooth, balanced scale — responsive enough to avoid lag, yet stable enough to prevent excessive noise or false signals.
The Key Upside Level for the FSO is +20, while the Key Downside Level is -20.
The image above shows the FSO above +20 and below -20, and the corresponding price movement.
FSML above +20 confirms sustained upside momentum — the market is being driven by consistent, broad-based buying pressure, not just a price spike.
FSML below -20 confirms sustained downside momentum — sellers are firmly in control across the market.
We do not chase the first sudden price move. Entries are only considered when the market demonstrates persistence, not impulse.
🔷 Half Shift Oscillator (HSO)
The image above highlights the Half Shift Oscillator (HSO).
The HSO is the FSO’s wingman — faster, more reactive, and designed to catch the earliest signs of strength, weakness, or momentum shifts.
While HSO reacts first, it is not a standalone confirmation of a major momentum change or trade-worthy strength.
Using the same proprietary formula as the FSO but scaled down, the HSO delivers smooth, balanced short-term momentum analysis. It is more responsive than the FSO, serving as the scout that spots potential setups before the main signal confirms.
The Key Upside Level for the FSO is +4, while the Key Downside Level is -4.
🔷 PlayBook Strategy: Shift Sync
Shift Sync is a momentum alignment play that triggers when short-term and mid-term momentum lock into the same direction, signaling strong directional control.
🔹 UpShift Sync – Bullish Alignment
HSO > +4 – Short-term momentum is firmly bullish.
FSO > +20 – Mid-term momentum confirms the bullish bias.
When both thresholds are met, buyers are in control and price is primed for continuation higher.
🔹 DownShift Sync – Bearish Alignment
HSO < -4 – Short-term momentum is firmly bearish.
FSO < -20 – Mid-term momentum confirms the bearish bias.
When both thresholds are met, sellers dominate and price is primed for continuation lower.
Execution:
Look for an entry opportunity in the direction of the alignment when conditions are met.
Avoid choppy conditions where alignment is frequently lost.
Why It Works
Think of the market as a tug-of-war between traders on different timeframes. Short-term traders (captured by the HSO) are quick movers — scalpers, intraday players, and algos hunting immediate edge. Mid-term traders (captured by the FSO) are swing traders, funds, and institutions who move slower but carry more weight.
Most of the time, these groups pull in opposite directions, creating chop and fakeouts. But when they suddenly lean the same way, the rope gets yanked hard in one direction. That’s when momentum has the highest chance to drive price further with minimal resistance.
Shift Sync works because it isolates those rare moments when multiple market “tribes” agree on direction — and when they do, price doesn’t just move, it flies.
Best Market Conditions
Shift Sync works best when the higher timeframe trend (daily, weekly, or monthly) is moving in the same direction as the alignment. This higher timeframe confluence increases follow-through potential and reduces the likelihood of false moves.
The image above shows an example of an UpShift Sync signal where the momentum table shows that the 1D momentum is bullish.
The image above shows bonus confluence, where the 1M and 1W momentum are also bullish.
The image above shows an example of a DownShift Sync signal where the momentum table shows that the 1D momentum is bearish. Bonus confluence also exists, where the 1W and 1M chart are also bearish.
Common Mistakes
Chasing late signals – Avoid entering if the Shift Sync trigger has been active for a long time. Instead, wait for a Shift Sync Pullback to look for opportunities to join in the direction of the trend.
Ignoring higher timeframe bias – Taking Shift Sync setups against the daily, weekly, or monthly trend reduces follow-through potential and increases the risk of a failed move.
🔷 Micro Shift Oscillator (MSO)
The image above highlights the Micro Shift Oscillator (MSO)
The MSO is the finishing touch to the FSO and HSO — the fastest and most reactive of the three. It’s built to spot pullback opportunities when the FSO and HSO are aligned, helping traders join strong price moves at the right time.
The MSO may reveal the earliest signs of a momentum shift, but that’s not its primary role. Its purpose is to identify retracement and pullback opportunities within the overarching trend, allowing traders to join the move while momentum remains intact.
🔷 Playbook Strategy: Shift Sync Pullback
Key Levels:
MSO Upside Trigger: +3
MSO Downside Trigger: -3
🔹 UpShift Pullback
Momentum Confirmation:
FSO > +20 – Mid-term momentum is strongly bullish.
HSO > +4 – Short-term momentum confirms alignment with the FSO.
Pullback Trigger:
MSO ≤ -3 – Signals a short-term retracement within the ongoing bullish trend and marks the earliest re-entry opportunity.
Entry Zone:
The blue arrow on the top chart shows where momentum remains intact while price pulls back into a zone primed for a move higher.
Setup Validity: Both FSO and HSO must remain above their bullish thresholds during the pullback.
Invalid Example:
If either the FSO or HSO drop below their bullish thresholds, momentum alignment breaks. No trade is taken.
🔹 DownShift Pullback
Momentum Confirmation:
FSO < -20 – Mid-term momentum is strongly bearish.
HSO < -4 – Short-term momentum aligns with the FSO, confirming seller dominance.
Pullback Trigger:
MSO ≥ +3 – Indicates a short-term retracement against the bearish trend, pointing to possible short-entry opportunities.
Entry Zone:
The purple arrow on the top chart marks valid pullback conditions — all three oscillators meet their bearish thresholds, and price is positioned to continue lower.
Setup Validity: Both FSO and HSO must remain below their bearish thresholds during the pullback.
Invalid Example:
If either oscillator rises above the bearish threshold, momentum alignment is lost and the MSO signal is ignored.
Why It Works
Even in strong trends, price rarely moves in a straight line. Supply and demand dynamics naturally create retracements as traders take profits, bet on reversals, or hedge positions.
While many momentum traders fear these pullbacks, they’re often the fuel for the next leg of the move — offering a “second chance” to join the trend at a more favorable price.
The Shift Sync Pullback pinpoints moments when both short-term (HSO) and mid-term (FSO) momentum remain firmly aligned, even as price moves temporarily against the trend. This alignment suggests the retracement is a pause, not a reversal.
By entering during a controlled pullback, traders often secure better entries, tighter stops, and stronger follow-through potential when the trend resumes.
Best Market Conditions:
Works best when the higher timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly) is trending in the same direction as the pullback setup.
Consistent momentum is ideal — avoid erratic, news-driven chop.
Following a recent breakout (Gate Breaker setup) when momentum is still fresh.
Common Mistakes
Ignoring threshold breaks – Entering when either HSO or FSO dips through their momentum threshold often leads to taking trades in weakening trends.
Trading against higher timeframe bias – A pullback against the daily or weekly trend is more likely to fail; use higher timeframe confluence as a filter.
🔷 Macro Shift Oscillator (MaSO)
The chart above shows the MaSO in isolation.
While the MaSO is not part of any active Kio IQ playbook strategies, it delivers the clearest view of the prevailing macro trend.
MaSO > 0 – Macro trend is bullish. Readings above +4 signal extreme bullish conditions.
MaSO < 0 – Macro trend is bearish. Readings below -4 signal extreme bearish conditions.
Use the MaSO for context, not entries — it frames the environment in which all other signals occur
🔷 Shift Gates – Kio IQ Momentum Barriers
The image above shows UpShift Gates.
UpShift Gates mark the highest price reached during periods when the FSO is above +20 — moments when mid-term momentum is firmly bullish and buyers are in control.
UpShift Gates are upside breakout levels — key swing highs formed before a pullback during periods of strong bullish momentum. When price reclaims an UpShift Gate with momentum confirmation, it signals a potential continuation of the uptrend.
The image above shows DownShift Gates.
DownShift Gates Mark The Lowest Price Reached During Periods When The FSO Is Below -20 — Moments When Mid-Term Momentum Is Firmly Bearish And Sellers Are In Control.
DownShift Gates are downside breakout levels — key swing lows formed before an upside pullback during periods of strong bearish momentum. When price reclaims a DownShift Gate with momentum confirmation, it signals a potential continuation of the downtrend.
🔷 Playbook Strategy: Gate Breakers
Core Rule:
Long signal when price decisively closes beyond an UpGate (for longs) or DownGate (for shorts). The breakout must show commitment — no wick-only tests.
🔹 UpGate Breaker (UpGate)
Trigger: Price closes above the UpShift Gate level.
Bonus Confluence: MaSO > 0 at the moment of the break — confirms that the macro trend bias is in favor of the breakout.
Invalidation: Avoid taking the signal if the gate level forms part of a DownShift Rift (bearish divergence) — this signals underlying weakness despite the break.
The chart above shows valid UpGate Breakers.
The chart above shows an invalidated UpGate Breaker setup.
🔹 DownGate Breaker (DownGate)
Trigger: Price closes below the DownShift Gate level.
Bonus Confluence: MaSO < 0 at the moment of the break — confirms that the macro trend bias is in favor of the breakdown.
Invalidation: Avoid taking the trade if the gate level forms part of an UpShift Rift (bullish divergence) — this signals underlying strength despite the break.
The chart above shows a valid DownGate Breaker.
Why It Works
Key swing levels like Shift Gates attract a high concentration of resting orders — stop losses from traders caught on the wrong side and breakout orders from momentum traders waiting for confirmation.
When price decisively clears a gate with a strong close, these orders trigger in quick succession, creating a burst of directional momentum.
Adding the MaSO filter ensures you’re breaking gates with the prevailing macro bias, improving the odds that the move will continue rather than stall.
The divergence-based invalidation rule (Rift filter) prevents entries when underlying momentum is moving in the opposite direction, helping avoid “fake breakouts” that trap traders.
Best Market Conditions:
Works best in markets with clear trend structure and visible Shift Gates (not during chop).
Strongest when higher timeframe (1D, 1W, 1M) momentum aligns with the breakout direction.
MaSO > 0 for bullish breakouts, MaSO < 0 for bearish breakouts
Most reliable after a period of consolidation near the gate, where pressure builds before the break.
Common Mistakes
Trading wick-only tests – A breakout without a decisive candle close beyond the gate often fails.
Ignoring MaSO bias – Taking a break in the opposite macro direction greatly reduces follow-through odds.
Skipping the Rift filter – Entering when the gate forms part of a divergence setup exposes you to higher reversal risk.
Chasing extended moves – If price is already far beyond the gate by the time you see it, risk/reward is poor; wait for the next setup or a retest.
🔷 Shift Rifts - Kio IQ Divergences
This chart shows an UpShift Rift — a bullish divergence where price action and momentum part ways, signaling a potential trend reversal or acceleration.
Setup:
Price Action: Price is marking lower lows, indicating short-term weakness.
FSO Reading: The Full Shift Oscillator (FSO) is marking higher lows over the same period, showing underlying momentum strengthening despite falling prices.
The rift between price and the FSO suggests selling pressure is losing force while buyers quietly regain control.
When confirmed by broader trend alignment in Kio IQ’s multi-timeframe momentum table, the UpShift Rift becomes a setup for a bullish move.
This chart shows a DownShift Rift — a bearish divergence where price action and momentum split, signaling a potential downside reversal.
Setup:
Price Action: Price is marking higher highs, suggesting continued strength on the surface.
FSO Reading: The Full Shift Oscillator (FSO) is marking lower highs over the same period, revealing weakening momentum beneath the price advance.
The rift between price and momentum signals that buying pressure is fading, even as price makes new highs. This disconnect often precedes a momentum shift in favor of sellers.
When aligned with multi-timeframe bearish signals in Kio IQ’s momentum table, the DownShift Rift becomes a strong setup for downside continuation or reversal.
🔷 Playbook Strategy: Rift Reversal
The Rift Reversal is a divergence-based reversal play that signals when momentum is fading and an trend reversal is likely. It’s designed to catch early turning points before the broader market catches on.
Trader’s Note:
This strategy is not intended for beginners — it requires confidence in reading divergence and trusting momentum shifts even when price action still appears weak. Best suited for traders experienced in managing reversals, as entries often occur before the broader market confirms the move.
🔹 UpRift Reversal
Core Setup:
Price Action – Forms a lower low.
Momentum Rift – The FSO forms a higher low, signaling bullish divergence and weakening selling pressure.
Trigger:
A confirmed UpRift Reversal signal is printed when:
Bullish Divergence is detected — price makes a new low, but the oscillator fails to confirm.
Momentum begins turning up from the divergence low (marked on chart as ⇝)
The image above shows a valid UpRift Reversal play.
🔹 DownRift Reversal
Core Setup:
Price Action – Forms a higher high.
Momentum Rift – The FSO forms a lower high, signaling bearish divergence and weakening buying pressure.
Trigger
A confirmed DownRift Reversal signal is printed when:
Bearish Divergence is detected — price makes a new high, but the oscillator fails to confirm.
Momentum begins turning down from the divergence high (marked on chart as ⇝).
Why It Works
Shift Rifts work because momentum often fades before a price reverses.
Price is the final scoreboard — it reflects what has already happened. Momentum, on the other hand, is a leading indicator of pressure. When the FSO begins to move in the opposite direction of price, it signals that the dominant side in the market is losing steam, even if the scoreboard hasn’t flipped yet.
In an UpShift Rift, sellers keep pushing price lower, but each push has less force — buyers are quietly building pressure under the surface.
In a DownShift Rift, buyers keep marking new highs, but they’re spending more effort for less result — sellers are starting to take control.
These disconnects happen because large participants often scale into or out of positions gradually, creating momentum shifts before price reflects it. Shift Rifts capture those turning points early.
Best Market Conditions:
Best in markets that have been trending strongly but are starting to show signs of exhaustion.
Works well after a prolonged move into key support/resistance, where large players may take profits or reverse positions.
Higher win potential when the Rift aligns with higher timeframe momentum bias in Kio IQ’s multi-timeframe table.
Common Mistakes
Forcing Rifts in choppy markets – In sideways chop, small oscillations can look like divergences but lack conviction.
Ignoring multi-timeframe bias – Trading an UpShift Rift when higher timeframes are strongly bearish (or vice versa) reduces follow-through odds.
Entering too early – Divergences can extend before reversing; wait for momentum to confirm a turn (⇝) before making a trading decision.
Confusing normal pullbacks with Rifts – Not every dip in momentum is a divergence; the Rift requires a clear and opposing trend between price and FSO.
🔷 Shift Count – Momentum Stage Tracker
Purpose:
Shift Count measures how far a bullish or bearish push has progressed, from its first spark to potential exhaustion.
It tracks momentum in defined steps so traders can instantly gauge whether a move is just starting, picking up steam, fully extended, or at risk of reversing.
How It Works
Bullish Momentum:
Start (1–2) → New momentum emerging, early entry window.
Acceleration (3–4) → Momentum in full swing, best for holding or adding to a position.
Extreme Bullish Momentum / Final Stages (5) → Watch for signs of reversal or take partial profits.
Exhaust – Can only occur after 5 is reached, signaling that the rally may be losing steam.
Bearish Momentum:
Start (-1 to -2) → New selling pressure emerging.
Acceleration (-3 to -4) → Bear trend accelerating.
Extreme Bearish Momentum / Final Stages (-5) → Watch for reversal or scale out.
Exhaust – Can only occur after -5 is reached, signaling that the sell-off may be running out of force.
The chart above shows a full 5-UpShift count.
The chart above shows a full 5-DownShift count.
Why It’s Useful
Markets often move in momentum “steps” before reversing or taking a breather.
Shift Count makes these steps visible, helping traders:
Spot the early stages of a potential move.
Identify when a move is picking up steam.
Identify when a move is mature and vulnerable to reversal.
Combine with other Kio IQ strategies for better-timed entries and exits.
Why This Works
It’s visually obvious where you are in the momentum cycle without overthinking.
You can build rules like:
Only enter in Start phase when higher timeframe agrees.
Manage positions aggressively once in Acceleration phase.
Be ready to exit or fade in Exhaust phase.
Best Market Conditions
Trending markets where pullbacks are shallow.
Works best when combined with Shift Sync Pullback or Gate Breaker triggers to confirm timing.
Higher timeframe direction confluence.
Common Mistakes
Treating Exhaust as always a reversal — sometimes strong markets push past 5/-5 multiple times.
Ignoring higher timeframe bias — a “Start” on a 1-minute chart against a strong daily trend is much riskier.
🔷 Playbook Strategy: Exhaust Flip
Core idea: When Shift Count reaches 5 (or -5) and then prints Exhaust, momentum has likely climaxed, whether temporarily or leading to a full reversal. We take the first qualified signal against the prior move.
Trader’s Note:
This strategy is not intended for beginners — it requires confidence in trusting momentum shifts even when price action still appears strong. Best suited for traders experienced in managing reversals, as entries often occur before the broader market confirms the move.
🔹 UpExhaust Flip (fade a bullish run)
Setup:
Shift Count hits 5, then an Exhaust print occurs.
Invalidation
The local high is broken to the upside.
The chart above explains the UpExhaust Flip strategy in greater detail.
🔹 DownExhaust Flip (fade a bearish run)
Setup:
Shift Count hits -5, then an Exhaust print occurs.
Invalidation
The local low is broken to the downside.
The chart above explains the DownExhaust Flip strategy in greater detail.
Bonus Confluence (optional, not required)
Rift assist: An UpShift Rift (for longs) or DownShift Rift (for shorts) near Exhaust strengthens the flip.
MaSO context: Neutral or opposite-leaning MaSO helps. Avoid flips straight against a strong MaSO bias unless you have a structure break.
Why It Works
Exhaust marks climax behavior: the prior side has pushed hard, then failed to extend after meeting significant pushback. Liquidity gets thin at the edges; aggressive profit-taking meets early contrarians. A small confirmation (micro structure break or HSO turn) is often enough to flip the tape for a snapback.
Best Market Conditions
After extended, one-sided runs (multiple Shift Count steps without meaningful pullbacks).
Near Shift Gates or obvious swing extremes where trapped orders cluster.
When higher-timeframe momentum is neutral or softening (you’re fading the last thrust of a decisive move, not a fresh trend).
Common Mistakes
Fading too early: Taking the trade at 5 without waiting for the Exhaust.
Fading freight trains: Fighting a fresh Shift Sync in the same direction right after Exhaust (often just a pause).
No structure reference: Entering without a clear micro swing to anchor risk.
🔷 MTF Shift Table
The MTF Shift Table table provides a compact, multi-timeframe view of market momentum shifts. Each cell represents the current shift count within a given timeframe, while the classification label indicates whether momentum is strong, weak, or normal.
The chart above further outlines the MTF Shift Table.
Why It Works
Markets rarely move in a perfectly linear fashion — momentum develops, stalls, and transitions at different speeds across different timeframes. This table allows you to:
See momentum alignment at a glance – If multiple higher and lower timeframes show a sustained shift count in the same direction, the move has greater structural support.
Spot divergences early – A shorter timeframe reversing against a longer-term sustained count can warn of potential pullbacks or trend exhaustion before price confirms.
Identify “momentum stacking” opportunities – When shift counts escalate across timeframes in sequence, it often signals a stronger and more durable move.
Avoid false enthusiasm – A single timeframe spike without agreement from other periods may be noise rather than genuine momentum.
The Trend Score provides a concise, at-a-glance evaluation of an asset’s directional strength across multiple timeframes. It distills complex momentum and Shift data into a single, easy-to-read metric, allowing traders to quickly determine whether the prevailing conditions favor bullish or bearish continuation. The Trend Scale scales from -100 to 100.
How to Use It in Practice
Trend Confirmation – Confirm that your intended trade direction is backed by multiple timeframes maintaining consistent momentum.
Risk Timing – Reduce position size or take partial profits when lower timeframes begin shifting against the dominant momentum classification.
Multi-timeframe Confluence – Combine with other system signals (e.g., FSO, HSO) for higher-probability entries.
This table effectively turns a complex multi-timeframe read into a single, glanceable heatmap of momentum structure, enabling quicker and more confident decision-making.
The MTF Shift Table is the confluence backbone of every playbook strategy for Kio IQ.
🔷 Momentum Meter
The Momentum Meter is a composite gauge built from three of Kio IQ’s core momentum engines:
HSO – Short-term momentum scout
FSO – Mid-term momentum backbone
MaSO – Macro trend context
By combining these three readings, the meter provides the most strict and lagging momentum classification in Kio IQ.
It only flips direction when a composite score of all three oscillators reach defined thresholds, filtering out short-lived counter-moves and false starts.
Why It Works
Many momentum tools flip too quickly — reacting to short-lived spikes that don’t represent real directional commitment. The Momentum Meter avoids this by requiring alignment across short, mid, and macro momentum engines before it shifts bias.
This triple-confirmation rule filters out noise, catching only those moments when traders of all speeds — scalpers, swing traders, and long-term participants — are leaning in the same direction. When that happens, price movement tends to be more sustained and less prone to immediate reversal.
In other words, the Momentum Meter doesn’t just tell you “momentum looks good” — it tells you momentum looks good to everyone who matters, across all horizons.
How It Works
Blue = All three engines align bullish.
Pink = All three engines align bearish.
The meter ignores smaller pullbacks or temporary oscillations that might flip the faster indicators — it waits for total alignment before changing state.
Because of this strict confirmation requirement, the Momentum Meter reacts slower but delivers higher-conviction shifts.
How to Interpret Readings
Blue (Bullish Alignment):
Sustained buying pressure across short, mid, and macro views. Often marks the “full confirmation” stage of a move.
Pink (Bearish Alignment):
Sustained selling pressure across all views. Confirms sellers are in control.
Practical Uses
Trend Followers – Use as a “stay-in” confirmation once a position is already open.
Swing Traders – Great for filtering out low-conviction setups; if the Momentum Meter disagrees with your intended direction, conditions aren’t fully aligned.
Confluence and Direction Filter – The Momentum Meter can be used as a form of confluence i.e. blue = longs only, pink = shorts only.
Limitations
Will always turn after the faster oscillators (HSO/MSO). This is intentional.
Works best in trending markets — in choppy conditions it may lag shifts significantly.
Should be used as a bias filter, not a standalone entry signal.
🔷 Trend Strength Meter
The Trend Strength Meter is a compact visual gauge that scores the current trend’s strength on a scale from -5 to +5:
+5 = Extremely strong bullish trend
0 = Neutral, no clear trend
-5 = Extremely strong bearish trend
This is an optional tool in Kio IQ — designed for quick reference rather than as a primary trading trigger.
Why it works
Single-indicator trend reads can be misleading — they might look strong on one metric while quietly weakening on another. The Trend Strength Meter solves this by blending multiple inputs (momentum alignment, structure persistence, and multi-timeframe data) into one composite score.
This matters because trend health isn’t just about direction — it’s about persistence. A +5 or -5 score means the market is not only trending but holding that trend with structural support across multiple timeframes.
By tracking both direction and staying power, the Trend Strength Meter flags when a move is at risk of fading before price action fully confirms it — giving you a head start on adjusting your position or taking profits.
How It Works
The Trend Strength Meter evaluates multiple market inputs — including momentum alignment, price structure, and persistence — to assign a numeric value representing how firmly the current move is holding.
The scoring logic:
Positive values indicate bullish conditions.
Negative values indicate bearish conditions.
Higher magnitude (closer to ±5) = stronger conviction in that direction.
Values near zero suggest the market is in a transition or range.
How to Interpret Readings
+4 to +5 (Strong Up) – Trend is well-established, often with multi-timeframe agreement.
+1 to +3 (Up) – Bullish bias present, but not at maximum conviction.
0 (Neutral) – No dominant trend; could be consolidation or pre-shift phase.
-1 to -3 (Down) – Bearish bias present but moderate.
-4 to -5 (Strong Down) – Trend is firmly bearish, with consistent downside momentum.
Why It Works
A single timeframe or momentum reading can give a false sense of trend health.
The Trend Strength Meter aggregates multiple layers of market data into one simplified score, making it easy to see whether a move has the underlying support to continue — or whether it’s more likely to stall.
Because the score considers both direction and persistence, it can flag when a move is losing strength even before price structure fully shifts.
🔷 Kio IQ – Supplemental Playbook Strategies
These phases are part of the Kio IQ Playbook—situational tools that can help you anticipate potential momentum changes.
While they can be useful for planning and tactical adjustments, they are not primary trade triggers and should be treated as early, lower-conviction cues.
🔹 1. Scouting Phase (Light Early Cue)
Purpose: Provide the earliest possible hint that momentum may be shifting.
Upshift Trigger: FSO crosses above the 0 line.
Downshift Trigger: FSO crosses below the 0 line.
Why It Works
The 0 line in the Full Shift Oscillator (FSO) acts as a neutral momentum boundary.
When the FSO moves above 0, it suggests that medium-term momentum has shifted to bullish territory.
When it moves below 0, it suggests that medium-term momentum has shifted to bearish territory.
This crossover is often the first measurable sign of a momentum reversal or acceleration, well before slower indicators confirm it.
Think of it as "momentum poking its head above water"—you’re spotting the change before it becomes obvious on price alone.
Best Use
Works best when confirmed later by Lookout Phase or other primary Kio IQ signals.
Ideal for scouting in anticipation of potential opportunities.
Helpful when monitoring multiple assets and you want a quick filter for shifts worth watching.
Can act as a trade trigger when the MTF Shift Table shows confluence (i.e., UpShift Scouting Signal + Bullish MTF Table + High Trend Strength Score).
Common Mistakes
Acting on Scouting Phase signals against the MTF Shift Table as a stand-alone trade trigger. Without higher timeframe alignment or additional confirmation, many Scouting Phase crossovers can fade quickly or reverse, leading to premature entries.
Ignoring market context
A bullish Scouting Phase in a strong downtrend can easily fail.
Always check higher timeframe trend alignment.
Overreacting to noise: On lower timeframes, small fluctuations can create false scouting signals.
Best Practices
Filter with trend: Only act on Scouting Phases that align with the dominant higher timeframe trend.
Watch volatility: In low-volatility conditions, false scouting triggers are more likely.
🔹 2. Lookout Phase (Early Momentum Alert)
Purpose:
The Lookout Phase signals an early alert that momentum is potentially strengthening in a given direction. It’s more meaningful than the Scouting Phase, but still considered a preliminary cue.
Triggers:
Upshift: FSO crosses above the HSO.
Downshift: FSO crosses below the HSO.
Why It Works:
The Lookout Phase is designed to identify moments when mid-term momentum (FSO) overtakes short-term momentum (HSO). Since the FSO is smoother and reacts more gradually, its crossover of the faster-reacting HSO can indicate a shift from short-lived fluctuations to a more sustained directional move.
This makes it a valuable early read on momentum transitions—especially when supported by higher-timeframe context.
Best Practices:
Always check the MTF Shift Table for higher-timeframe alignment before acting on a Lookout Phase signal.
Look for confluence with the Momentum Meter
Treat Lookout Phase entries as probing positions—small, exploratory trades that can be scaled into if follow-through develops.
Common Mistakes:
Treating Lookout Phase signals as a definitive trade trigger without context
Entering solely on a Lookout Phase crossover, without considering the MTF Shift Table or broader market structure, can result in chasing short-lived momentum bursts that fail to follow through.
Ignoring prevailing higher-timeframe momentum
Trading a Lookout Phase signal that is counter to the dominant trend or higher-timeframe bias increases the risk of whipsaws and false moves.
