Indicator Name: OBV by Randy_New
Overview:
This indicator is based on the traditional On-Balance Volume (OBV) concept, with an enhancement that integrates an EMA (Exponential Moving Average) smoothing of the OBV data. The indicator plots an OBV Oscillator, which is the difference between the raw OBV and its EMA, helping traders to better visualize momentum changes and potential trend reversals.
Key Features:
Instead of simply accumulating OBV values, this script calculates the difference between OBV and its EMA to create a more responsive oscillator.
Color-coded visualization: Red when the oscillator is above zero (indicating bullish momentum), Green when below zero (indicating bearish momentum).
Corrects initial offset issues caused by na values in volume changes to ensure a more accurate OBV calculation from the beginning.
How to Use:
When the OBV Oscillator is above zero, it suggests buying pressure is dominant — consider bullish strategies.
When the OBV Oscillator is below zero, it suggests selling pressure is dominant — consider bearish strategies.
For higher accuracy, combine it with other technical tools such as trendlines, support/resistance, MACD, or RSI for confirmation.
Target Users:
Traders who like to use volume-based indicators for momentum analysis.
Traders looking for a simplified and visually enhanced version of the traditional OBV.
Important Notice:
This script is closed-source to protect the specific improvements and proprietary adjustments made to the traditional OBV calculation and visualization method. Thank you for your understanding.

Momentum Wave Oscillator📈 Momentum Wave Oscillator (MWO) 📈
The Momentum Wave Oscillator (MWO) is a precision-designed tool for traders who want early, reliable insight into market shifts — before they fully appear on price charts.
Instead of reacting late to moves, MWO is engineered to anticipate changes in momentum by tracking market pressure within a dynamic range.
Its built-in bands and visual cues make it simple to spot key moments where momentum exhaustion, reversals, or fresh breakouts are most likely to occur.
How to Use:
Buy Zones: When the oscillator moves up from lower regions (typically below 20), it may indicate momentum building to the upside.
Sell Zones: When the oscillator moves down from upper regions (typically above 80), it may suggest momentum starting to weaken.
Dynamic Bands:
Unlike conventional fixed levels like 20 and 80, MWO features dynamic adaptive bands that better reflect real-time changes in market behavior.
Markets are fluid — volatility and momentum strength vary from cycle to cycle. Static zones can miss important shifts or produce false signals.
The dynamic bands allow the indicator to adapt naturally to changing conditions, offering more precise context for overbought, oversold, or breakout environments.
Background Colors and Labels:
Automatic highlights appear when potential turning points are detected, allowing traders to act quickly without chart clutter.
Best Practices:
Use the MWO as a confirmation tool alongside your existing strategy (trendlines, support/resistance, volume spikes, etc.).
Look for agreement between the MWO and price action for higher probability entries.
Avoid relying on it in isolation during extremely low-volume periods, where momentum may appear artificially weak or strong.
Adjust sensitivity settings depending on your trading style (scalping vs swing trading).
Important Note:
The MWO is designed for educational and informational purposes. No indicator can predict the future with certainty. Always combine it with proper risk management and your personal trading plan.
PivotBox by Nadeem Al-QahwiPivotBox by Nadeem Al-Qahwi
General Idea of the Indicator: The PivotBox indicator is an advanced technical analysis tool designed to identify key reversal points in the market based on pivot highs and pivot lows. The indicator helps traders to detect breakout and breakdown opportunities based on past price movements, guiding informed trading decisions.
Indicator Functions:
Key Reversal Points (Pivot Points):
The indicator identifies pivot highs and pivot lows over a user-defined period, helping traders spot significant price levels in the market.
These points are plotted on the chart, showing where market reversals may occur.
Breakouts and Breakdowns:
The indicator identifies breakouts when the price moves above a pivot high or breakdowns when the price falls below a pivot low.
Once these breakouts or breakdowns are detected, the indicator draws lines indicating the critical price levels for visual reference.
Trend Levels using Zero-Lag MA:
The indicator includes an option to add a Zero-Lag Moving Average (Zero-Lag MA) to display the overall trend in the market. This moving average helps filter out noise and identify the general market direction, improving trade decision-making.
Line Styles:
The pivot points (highs and lows) are displayed using different line styles, such as solid, dashed, or dotted lines. The user can customize the style based on their preference.
These lines represent the breakouts or breakdown levels in the market.
Alerts:
The indicator can activate alerts when a breakout or breakdown occurs. Users can customize the alerts to notify them when specific conditions are met, ensuring that they do not miss significant price movements.
Input Variables:
Period (prd): The time period over which the pivot highs and lows are calculated. The user can define this period based on their trading strategy.
Max Breakout Length (bo_len): The maximum time duration for a breakout or breakdown to occur. This variable helps determine the relevance of the price movement.
Threshold Rate (cwidthu): The width percentage that helps to define the price area for breakouts and breakdowns.
Line Style (lstyle): Allows the user to choose the style of lines used to display the pivot points (solid, dashed, or dotted).
Minimum Number of Tests (mintest): The minimum number of tests required before a breakout or breakdown is considered valid.
How the Indicator Works:
The indicator first calculates the pivot highs and lows based on the user-defined period (Period).
It then tracks price movements to detect if a breakout or breakdown occurs.
When a breakout or breakdown is confirmed, the indicator draws lines at these levels and shows the user the new price direction.
Alerts can be triggered based on predefined conditions such as when a breakout or breakdown occurs.
The Zero-Lag MA helps the user visualize the trend, adding another layer of analysis to the market movements.
Key Benefits:
Accurate Reversal Point Analysis: Helps traders identify key entry and exit points based on precise technical analysis.
Breakout and Breakdown Detection: Allows traders to spot breakout and breakdown opportunities in real-time.
Customizable Alerts: Users can set up alerts to notify them when a breakout or breakdown happens, ensuring they don't miss important market moves.
Flexible Customization: The indicator offers various options to customize the display (line styles, alerts, trendlines), catering to different trading strategies.
Radonezh Kir-Mary Beauty editionOverview
Dedicated to rev. Kirill and Mary of Radonezh.
This indicator uniquely combines Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) and price momentum with dynamic normalization to identify trend strength, reversals, supported by a combination of more traditional signal logic. Unlike traditional momentum oscillators, it integrates volume dynamics and advanced directional index to filter false signals and adapts to market volatility through automated scaling, offering a holistic view of price-action reliability.
Core Innovations
Adapive Signals: Uses a proprietary correlation algorithm to weight momentum values, reducing noise in choppy markets.
Lower timeframe entry points: (currently 1 minute only) and HTF line statuses for timeframe synchronisation (currently only 15 minutes and 1 hour status) for super-precise entry points
Automatic drawing of resistance and support lines based on the proprietary algorithm for detecting volume/price synchronization and desynchronization levels.
"Victor-predictor": price chart pointing line that shows where the price supposedly goes based on the machine-learning simulation with pine script based on the main 3 traditional classical indicators. Works independently from the rest of the indicator. Developed by @Skorcez (same team).
Automatic recognition of possible long and short stop order placement levels. I do not filter them so use only within the general context of the indicator.
Key Features
Volume-Price Correlation: CVD reflects institutional order flow, while price momentum quantifies trend acceleration.
Auto-Scaling: Adjusts output range based on recent volatility (ATR), preventing overbought/oversold false positives.
Visual Alerts: Marks divergence zones with colored trendlines and labels (regular/hidden bullish/bearish).
Unique Value
By fusing volume delta dynamics with momentum filtering, this script addresses a critical gap in traditional indicators that treat price and volume in isolation. The closed-source logic focuses on institutional accumulation/distribution patterns, providing actionable signals without repainting.
Compatible with all assets and timeframes. No promotional content or external links included.

Position Signals via DEMA Momentum Line Coloration
The main indicator line (orange/black) determines entry/exits based on its color intensity, which reflects trend strength and confirmation from filtered signals. Here's how it works:
Long Positions (Green/Teal)
Weak Long:
Dark Green = Price momentum rising without volume/Machine Learning (ML) confirmation.
Example: main line turns green but lacks volume spikes or ML buy signals.
Strong Long:
Bright Green = Momentum confirmed by:
Volume Surge: Volume exceeds 1.5x 20-period average.
ML Confirmation: ML score > 0.7 with price above EMA20.
Post-Drop Recovery: Price rebounds after a >1% drop on high volume. (not active as of now, will add a bit later, still working on it)
Short Positions (Red/Orange)
Weak Short:
Orange = Momentum declines without bearish confirmation.
Strong Short:
Bright Red = Confirmed by:
Volume Divergence: Rising price with falling CVD momentum.
ML Bearish: ML score > 0.7 + price below EMA20.
Overextension: RSI > 70 + price above upper Bollinger Band.
Neutral (Gray)
Flat Momentum:
Gray = Momentum near zero (±0.05) + low volatility (ATR < 1% of price).
Action: Avoid trades until color intensifies or stay in a position with a trailing stoploss until it's clear where the market goes (use HTF signal colour table to know what to expect).
Key Features
Adaptive Confirmation:
Colors brighten when signals align across:
Volume acceleration
RSI and a few other extremes (oversold/overbought)
Machine Learning predictions
Dynamic Risk Zones:
Gray areas highlight low-confidence periods, while bright colors mark high-probability entries.
Usage: Enter longs when the line turns bright green and exits when it fades to dark green/gray. Reverse for shorts. Combine with the built-in Victor-Predictor signals for optimal accuracy
============================================
Plans to add soon:
============================================
Dynamic Normalization: Scales CVD and price momentum to a fixed range (default: -20 to +20) using volatility-adjusted multipliers, ensuring consistent interpretation across assets/timeframes.
Divergence Detection: Flags discrepancies between volume-driven momentum (CVD) and price trends, highlighting potential reversals.

Volume-Price Momentum IndicatorVolume-Price Momentum Indicator (VPMI)
Overview
The Volume-Price Momentum Indicator (VPMI), developed by Kevin Svenson , is a powerful technical analysis tool designed to identify strong bullish and bearish momentum in price movements, driven by volume dynamics. By analyzing price changes and volume surges over a user-defined lookback period, VPMI highlights potential trend shifts and continuation patterns through a smoothed histogram, optional labels, and background highlights. Ideal for traders seeking to capture momentum-driven opportunities, VPMI is suitable for various markets, including stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies.
How It Works
VPMI calculates the difference between volume-weighted buying and selling pressure based on price changes over a specified lookback period. It amplifies signals during high-volume periods, applies smoothing to reduce noise, and uses momentum checks to detect sustained trends.
Indicator display:
A histogram that oscillates above (bullish) or below (bearish) a zero line, with brighter colors indicating stronger momentum and faded colors for weaker signals.
Optional labels ("Bullish" or "Bearish") to mark significant momentum shifts.
Optional background highlights to visually emphasize strong trend conditions.
Alerts to notify users when strong bullish or bearish momentum is detected.
Key Features
Customizable Settings:
Adjust the lookback period, volume threshold, momentum length, and smoothing to suit your trading style.
Volume Sensitivity:
Emphasizes price movements during high-volume surges, enhancing signal reliability.
Momentum Detection: Uses linear regression and momentum change to confirm sustained trends, reducing false signals.
Visual Clarity:
Offers a clear histogram with color-coded signals, plus optional labels and backgrounds for enhanced chart readability.
Alerts:
Configurable alerts for strong momentum signals, enabling timely trade decisions.

Bullish/Bearish Colors:
Customize colors for bullish (default: green) and bearish (default: red) signals.
Faded Transparency (Default: 40):
Adjusts the transparency of weaker signals for visual distinction.
How to Use
Interpret Signals:
Above Zero (Green):
Indicates bullish momentum. Bright green suggests strong, sustained buying pressure.
Below Zero (Red):
Indicates bearish momentum. Bright red suggests strong, sustained selling pressure.
Faded Colors:
Weaker momentum, potentially signaling consolidation or trend exhaustion.
Enable Visuals:
Turn on "Show Labels" and "Show Backgrounds" in the settings for additional context on strong momentum signals.
Set Alerts:
Use the built-in alert conditions ("Strong Bullish Momentum" or "Strong Bearish Momentum") to receive notifications when significant trends emerge.
Combine with Other Tools:
Pair VPMI with support/resistance levels, trendlines, or other indicators (e.g., RSI, MACD) for confirmation.
Best Practices
Timeframe:
VPMI works on all timeframes, but shorter timeframes (e.g., 5m, 15m) may produce more signals, while longer timeframes (e.g., 1h, 4h, 1D) offer higher reliability.
Market Conditions:
Most effective in trending markets. In choppy or sideways markets, consider increasing the smoothing length or momentum threshold to filter noise.
Risk Management:
Always use VPMI signals in conjunction with a robust trading plan, including stop-losses and position sizing.
Limitations
Lagging Nature:
As a momentum indicator, VPMI may lag in fast-moving markets due to smoothing and lookback calculations.
False Signals:
In low-volume or ranging markets, signals may be less reliable. Adjust the volume threshold or momentum settings to improve accuracy.
Customization Required:
Optimal settings vary by asset and timeframe. Experiment with inputs to align with your trading strategy.

Exponential Trend [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script plots an adaptive exponential trend system that initiates from a dynamic anchor and accelerates based on time and direction. Unlike standard moving averages or trailing stops, the trend line here doesn't follow price directly—it expands exponentially from a pivot determined by a modified Supertrend logic. The result is a non-linear trend curve that starts at a specific price level and accelerates outward, allowing traders to visually assess trend strength, persistence, and early-stage reversal points through both base and volatility-adjusted extensions.
CONCEPTS
This indicator builds on the idea that trend-following tools often need dynamic, non-static expansion to reflect real market behavior. It uses a simplified Supertrend mechanism to define directional context and anchor levels, then applies an exponential growth function to simulate trend acceleration over time. The exponential growth is unidirectional and resets only when the direction flips, preserving trend memory. This method helps avoid whipsaws and adds time-weighted confirmation to trends. A volatility buffer—derived from ATR and modifiable by a width multiplier—adds a second layer to indicate zones of risk around the main trend path.
FEATURES
Exponential Trend Logic : Once a directional anchor is set, the base trend line accelerates using an exponential formula tied to elapsed bars, making the trend stronger the longer it persists.
Volatility-Adjusted Extension : A secondary band is plotted above or below the base trend line, widened by ATR to visualize volatility zones, act as soft stop regions or as a better entry point (Dynamic Support/Resistance).
Color-Coded Visualization : Clear green/red base and extension lines with shaded fills indicate trend direction and confidence levels.
Signal Markers & Alerts : Triangle markers indicate confirmed trend reversals. Built-in alerts notify users of bullish or bearish direction changes in real-time.
USAGE
Use this script to identify strong trends early, visually measure their momentum over time, and determine safe areas for entries or exits. Start by adjusting the *Exponential Rate* to control how quickly the trend expands—the higher the rate, the more aggressive the curve. The *Initial Distance* sets how far the anchor band is placed from price initially, helping filter out noise. Increase the *Width Multiplier* to widen the volatility zone for more conservative entries or exits. When the price crosses above or below the base line, a new trend is assumed and the exponential projection restarts from the new anchor. The base trend and its extension both shift over time, but only reset on a confirmed reversal. This makes the tool especially useful for momentum continuation setups or trailing stop logic in trending markets.
Filtered Swing Pivot S&R )Pivot support and resis🔍 Filtered Swing Pivot S&R - Overview
This indicator identifies and plots tested support and resistance levels using a filtered swing pivot strategy. It focuses on high-probability zones where price has reacted before, helping traders better anticipate future price behavior.
It filters out noise using:
Customizable pivot detection logic
Minimum price level difference
ATR (Average True Range) volatility filter
Confirmation by price retesting the level before plotting
⚙️ Core Logic Explained
✅ 1. Pivot Detection
The script uses Pine Script's built-in ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow() functions to find local highs (potential resistance) and lows (potential support).
Pivot Lookback/Lookahead (pivotLen):
A pivot is confirmed if it's the highest (or lowest) point within a lookback and lookahead range of pivotLen bars.
Higher values = fewer, stronger pivots.
Lower values = more, but potentially noisier levels.
✅ 2. Pending Pivot Confirmation
Once a pivot is detected:
It is not drawn immediately.
The script waits until price re-tests that pivot level. This retest confirms the market "respects" the level.
For example: if price hits a previous high again, it's treated as a valid resistance.
✅ 3. Dual-Level Filtering System
To reduce chart clutter and ignore insignificant levels, two filters are applied:
Fixed Threshold (Minimum Level Difference):
Ensures a new pivot level is not too close to the last one.
ATR-Based Filter:
Dynamically adjusts sensitivity based on current volatility using the formula:
java
Copy
Edit
Minimum distance = ATR × ATR Multiplier
Only pivots that pass both filters are plotted.
✅ 4. Line Drawing
Once a pivot is:
Detected
Retested
Filtered
…a horizontal dashed line is drawn at that level to highlight support or resistance.
Resistance: Red (default)
Support: Green (default)
These lines are:
Dashed for clarity
Extended for X bars into the future (user-defined) for forward visibility
🎛️ Customizable Inputs
Parameter Description
Pivot Lookback/Lookahead Bars to the left and right of a pivot to confirm it
Minimum Level Difference Minimum price difference required between plotted levels
ATR Length Number of bars used in ATR volatility calculation
ATR Multiplier for Pivot Multiplies ATR to determine volatility-based pivot separation
Line Extension (bars) How many future bars the level line will extend for better visibility
Resistance Line Color Color for resistance lines (default: red)
Support Line Color Color for support lines (default: green)
📈 How to Use It
This indicator is ideal for:
Identifying dynamic support & resistance zones that adapt to volatility.
Avoiding false levels by waiting for pivot confirmation.
Visual guidance for entries, exits, stop placements, or take-profits.
🔑 Trade Ideas:
Use support/resistance retests for entry confirmations.
Combine with candlestick patterns or volume spikes near drawn levels.
Use in confluence with trendlines or moving averages.
🚫 What It Does Not Do (By Design)
Does not repaint or remove past levels once confirmed.
Does not include labels or alerts (but can be added).
Does not auto-scale based on timeframes (manual tuning recommended).
🛠️ Possible Enhancements (Optional)
If desired, you could extend the functionality to include:
Labels with “S” / “R”
Alert when a new level is tested or broken
Toggle for support/resistance visibility
Adjustable line width or style

💡 What Makes This Unique
Volume Intelligence : Unlike basic order block indicators, this script incorporates volume analysis to identify only the most significant institutional zones, focusing on quality over quantity.
Structural Precision : Uses sophisticated break of structure algorithms to identify true market turning points, going beyond simple price pattern recognition.
Dynamic Block Management : Implements automatic block tracking, extension, and cleanup to maintain a clean and relevant chart display without manual intervention.
Institutional Focus : Designed specifically to highlight areas where smart money has likely positioned, helping retail traders align with institutional perspectives rather than retail noise.
🔬 How It Works
1. Structure Identification Process :
The indicator continuously scans price action to identify significant swing points and structure levels within the specified range, establishing a foundation for order block recognition.
2. Break Detection :
When price breaks an established structure level (crossing below a significant low for bearish breaks or above a significant high for bullish breaks), the indicator marks this as a potential zone for order block formation.
3. Volume Qualification :
For each potential order block, the algorithm calculates the relative volume compared to the configured period average. Only blocks formed with volume exceeding the minimum ratio threshold are displayed.
4. Block Creation and Management :
Valid order blocks are created, tracked, and managed as price continues to develop. Blocks extend to the right of the chart until they are either mitigated by price action or expire after the designated timeframe.
5. Continuous Monitoring :
The indicator constantly evaluates price interaction with existing blocks, determining when blocks have been tested, mitigated, or invalidated, and updates the visual representation accordingly.
💡 Note:
Order Blocks represent areas where institutional traders have likely established positions and may defend these zones during future price visits. For optimal results, use this indicator in conjunction with other confluent factors such as key support/resistance levels, trendlines, or additional confirmation indicators. The most reliable signals typically occur on higher timeframes where institutional activity is most prominent. Start with the default settings and adjust parameters gradually to match your specific trading instrument and style.

Liquidity Heatmap SwiftEdgeDescription
Liquidity Heatmap with Buy/Sell Side (Blue/Red) is a technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify potential liquidity zones in the market by combining swing high/low detection with volume analysis, visualized as a heatmap overlay on the chart. This script highlights areas where significant buying or selling pressure may exist, often acting as support or resistance levels, and provides a clear visual representation of these zones using color-coded heatmap boxes and labeled bubbles.
What It Does
The script identifies key price levels (swing highs and lows) where liquidity is likely to be concentrated, such as stop-loss clusters or pending orders. These levels are then grouped into a heatmap, with blue zones representing potential buy-side liquidity (below the current price) and red zones indicating sell-side liquidity (above the current price). Each zone is marked with a bubble showing the estimated liquidity amount, derived from volume data, to help traders gauge the strength of the level.
How It Works
The script combines three main components to create a comprehensive liquidity visualization:
Swing Highs and Lows Detection:
The script uses the ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow functions to identify swing highs and lows over a user-defined lookback period (Swing Length). These levels often represent areas where price has reversed, indicating potential liquidity zones where stop-losses or pending orders may be placed.
Volume Analysis:
Volume data at each swing high/low is captured and averaged over a specified period (Volume Average Length). This volume is then scaled using a multiplier (Volume Multiplier for Liquidity) to estimate the liquidity amount at each level, displayed in thousands (e.g., "10K") on the chart via labeled bubbles.
Heatmap Visualization:
The identified levels are grouped into price bins to form a heatmap. The price range is divided into a user-defined number of bins (Number of Heatmap Bins), and each bin is drawn as a colored box (blue for buy-side, red for sell-side). The transparency of the heatmap boxes can be adjusted (Heatmap Transparency) to ensure they do not obscure the price action.
Why Combine These Components?
The combination of swing highs/lows, volume analysis, and a heatmap provides a powerful way to visualize liquidity in the market. Swing highs and lows are natural points where liquidity tends to accumulate, as they often coincide with areas where traders place stop-losses or pending orders. By incorporating volume data, the script quantifies the potential strength of these levels, giving traders insight into the magnitude of liquidity present. The heatmap visualization then aggregates these levels into a clear, color-coded overlay, making it easy to see where buy-side and sell-side liquidity is concentrated without cluttering the chart.
This mashup is particularly useful because it bridges price action (swing levels), market activity (volume), and visual clarity (heatmap), offering a holistic view of potential support and resistance zones that might influence price movements.
How to Use It
Add the Indicator to Your Chart:
Apply the script to your chart by adding it from the Pine Script library. It will overlay directly on your price chart.
Interpret the Heatmap:
Blue Zones (Buy-Side Liquidity): These appear below the current price and indicate levels where buying pressure or stop-losses from short positions may be located.
Red Zones (Sell-Side Liquidity): These appear above the current price and indicate levels where selling pressure or stop-losses from long positions may be located.
The intensity of the color is controlled by the Heatmap Transparency setting—lower values make the zones more opaque, while higher values make them more transparent.
Analyze the Bubbles:
Each liquidity zone is marked with a bubble showing the estimated liquidity amount in thousands (e.g., "10K"). The size of the bubble is scaled by the Bubble Size Multiplier, with larger bubbles indicating higher liquidity.
Adjust Settings for Your Needs:
Liquidity Settings:
Swing Length: Controls the lookback period for detecting swing highs and lows. A smaller value (e.g., 10) is better for shorter timeframes like 1-minute charts, while a larger value (e.g., 50) suits higher timeframes.
Liquidity Threshold: Defines how close two levels must be to be considered the same, preventing duplicate zones.
Volume Average Length: Sets the period for averaging volume data at swing points.
Volume Multiplier for Liquidity: Scales the volume to estimate liquidity amounts shown in the bubbles.
Lookback Period (Hours): Limits how far back the script looks for liquidity zones.
Use Price Window Filter: If enabled, only shows zones within a price range defined by Liquidity Window (Points per Side).
Heatmap Settings:
Number of Heatmap Bins: Determines how many price bins the heatmap is divided into. More bins create a finer resolution but may clutter the chart.
Heatmap Bin Height (Points): Sets the vertical height of each heatmap box in price points.
Heatmap Transparency: Adjusts the transparency of the heatmap boxes (0 = fully opaque, 100 = fully transparent).
Display Settings:
Bubble Size Multiplier: Scales the size of the bubbles showing liquidity amounts.
Trading Application:
Use the heatmap to identify potential support (blue zones) and resistance (red zones) levels where price may react.
Pay attention to zones with larger bubbles, as they indicate higher liquidity and may have a stronger impact on price.
Combine with other analysis tools (e.g., trendlines, indicators) to confirm trade setups.
What Makes It Original?
This script stands out by integrating swing high/low detection with volume-based liquidity estimation and a heatmap visualization in a single tool. Unlike traditional support/resistance indicators that only plot static lines, this script dynamically aggregates liquidity zones into a heatmap, making it easier to see clusters of potential buying or selling pressure. The addition of volume-derived liquidity amounts in labeled bubbles provides a unique quantitative measure of each zone's strength, helping traders prioritize key levels. The color-coded buy/sell distinction further enhances its utility by visually separating zones based on their likely market impact.
Example Use Case
On a 1-minute chart of EUR/USD, you might set Swing Length to 10 to capture short-term pivots, Lookback Period (Hours) to 4 to focus on recent data, and Liquidity Window to 200 points (20 pips) to show only nearby zones. The heatmap will then display blue zones below the current price where buy-side liquidity may act as support, and red zones above where sell-side liquidity may act as resistance. A bubble showing "50K" at a blue zone indicates significant buy-side liquidity, suggesting a potential bounce if the price approaches that level.
Multitimeframe Fair Value Gap – FVG (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Multitimeframe Fair Value Gap – FVG (Zeiierman) indicator provides a dynamic and customizable visualization of institutional imbalances (Fair Value Gaps) across multiple timeframes. Built for traders who seek to analyze price inefficiencies, this tool helps highlight potential entry points, unmitigated gaps, and directional bias using smart volume logic and adaptive visual elements.
A Fair Value Gap (FVG) forms when there's a three-candle sequence in which a market imbalance leaves a "gap" between the wicks of candle 1 and candle 3. These areas are often considered footprints of institutional activity, and this indicator gives you the tools to track them with surgical precision across any timeframe you choose—regardless of the one you're viewing.
This indicator also includes a trend filter powered by a low-pass Butterworth filter, enabling traders to distinguish between countertrend vs. trend-aligned FVGs for more intelligent decision-making. On top of that, it features a dynamic FVG table for live tracking and bull/bear volume power visualization inside each gap, adding powerful clarity to market intent.
█ How It Works
The indicator analyzes the open, high, low, close, and volume of candles from a user-selected timeframe. It identifies Fair Value Gaps based on wick logic and only confirms those that meet customizable strength criteria. Once detected, the indicator visualizes each FVG with dynamically extending boxes, optional buy/sell volume bars, and a real-time mitigation check.
⚪ Multitimeframe Logic
Users can analyze FVGs from a higher or lower timeframe regardless of their current chart.
This is achieved using request.security() to fetch OHLCV data from the chosen timeframe.
⚪ Wick Sensitivity & Impulse Filter
The script measures the wick size of potential FVG candles and compares them to a running average. Only FVGs with wick sizes above a certain sensitivity threshold (user-controlled) are plotted. This ensures only meaningful price dislocations (e.g., strong impulsive moves) are shown, reducing noise.
⚪ Midpoint Mitigation Logic
FVGs are marked as "mitigated" when the price revisits the gap area. Traders can choose whether full gap closure or just a midpoint touch is required. This allows faster reactivity in real-time trading environments.
⚪ Bull & Bear Power – Volume-Weighted Visualization
Every Fair Value Gap box includes sub-bars representing the estimated buy and sell effort that created the gap. These are calculated using the candle's close in relation to its high/low range and volume:
Buy Volume % ≈ effort from low to close
Sell Volume % ≈ effort from high to close
Each sub-bar inside the FVG:
Is color-coded (UpCol for bullish, DnCol for bearish)
Is drawn proportionally to the strength of buyers or sellers
Visually displays who was in control during the imbalance
⚪ FVG Table – Dynamic On-Chart Overview
The indicator includes an optional on-chart table that displays all currently active (unmitigated) FVGs in a side panel format:
Automatic updates as gaps are formed and mitigated
Color-coded rows to show bullish vs. bearish FVGs
Timestamps to know precisely when the gap formed
User-controlled position via Table Left and Table Right
This is a gap watchlist overlay, giving traders a concise view of current inefficiencies without manually scanning the chart.
⚪ FVG Trend Filter (Butterworth Smoother)
Using a two-pole Butterworth low-pass filter, the indicator computes a trendline based on average FVG values, offering a smooth but responsive directional signal.
Passband Ripple (dB): Controls sensitivity and overshoot tolerance
Cutoff Frequency (0–0.5): Sets how quickly the trendline reacts
The trendline helps categorize each FVG:
Trend up → favor bullish FVGs
Trend down → favor bearish FVGs
It adds an extra dimension to FVG entries, helping distinguish between trend-aligned and countertrend signals.
█ How to Use
⚪ Identify Institutional Gaps
Use this tool to identify areas where institutions may have left imbalances behind quickly.
These areas often become:
Strong support/resistance zones
Areas where price might react sharply
Targets for liquidity sweeps or retracements
⚪ React to Trend or Countertrend
The built-in trendline helps categorize each FVG:
Trend up → Bullish FVGs have higher validity
Trend down → Bearish FVGs have higher validity
⚪ Volume Context via Bull/Bear Power
Each Fair Value Gap is more than just a price imbalance — it’s a story of effort and intent. The Bull/Bear Power feature visualizes the buy and sell pressure behind each FVG, helping you understand how the gap was formed and who was in control.
A bullish FVG with a strong buy effort suggests continuation potential — buyers dominated the move.
A bullish FVG with a dominant sell effort could signal a trap or reversal — sellers may have overwhelmed the breakout.
These insights allow you to confirm imbalance strength, spot traps early, and add confidence to entries based on dominant volume profiles.
Instead of viewing gaps as static zones, this feature turns each into a live volume map — a visual breakdown of who moved the market and whether that move had conviction.
⚪ Plan with the FVG Table
The FVG Table acts as your on-chart control center for tracking active imbalances. When enabled, it provides a clear summary of all unmitigated Fair Value Gaps, helping you stay organized and focused during fast-moving sessions.
Track live and historical gaps: See exactly when and where each FVG formed.
Monitor older, still-valid zones: Gaps off-screen but not mitigated remain in play — perfect for anticipating future reactions.
Gauge market bias at a glance: The balance of bullish vs. bearish FVGs helps you understand overall directional pressure.
Plan entries confidently: Use the table to reference all zones for risk management, confluence stacking, or layered execution strategies.
Instead of manually scanning your chart, the FVG Table offers a clean, at-a-glance overview of the market’s inefficiencies — giving you the structure needed to act with precision.

First EMA Touch (Last N Bars)Okay, here's a description of the "First EMA Touch (Last N Bars)" TradingView indicator:
Indicator Name: First EMA Touch (Last N Bars)
Core Purpose:
This indicator is designed to visually highlight on the chart the exact moment when the price (specifically, the high/low range of a price bar) makes contact with a specified Exponential Moving Average (EMA) for the first time within a defined recent lookback period (e.g., the last 20 bars).
How it Works:
EMA Calculation: It first calculates a standard Exponential Moving Average (EMA) based on the user-defined EMA Length and EMA Source (e.g., close price). This EMA line is plotted on the chart, often serving as a dynamic level of potential support or resistance.
"Touch" Detection: For every price bar, the indicator checks if the bar's range (from its low to its high) overlaps with or crosses the calculated EMA value for that bar. If low <= EMA <= high, it's considered a "touch".
"First Touch" Logic: This is the key feature. The indicator looks back over a specified number of preceding bars (defined by the Lookback Period). If a "touch" occurs on the current bar, and no "touch" occurred on any of the bars within that preceding lookback window, then the current touch is marked as the "first touch".
Visual Signal: When a "first touch" condition is met, the indicator plots a distinct shape (by default, a small green triangle) below the corresponding price bar. This makes it easy to spot these specific events.
Key Components & Settings:
EMA Line: The calculated EMA itself is plotted (typically as an orange line) for visual reference.
First Touch Signal: A shape (e.g., green triangle) appears below bars meeting the "first touch" criteria.
EMA Length (Input): Determines the period used for the EMA calculation. Shorter lengths make the EMA more reactive to recent price changes; longer lengths make it smoother and slower.
Lookback Period (Input): Defines how many bars (including the current one) the indicator checks backwards to determine if the current touch is the first one. A lookback of 20 means it checks if there was a touch in the previous 19 bars before signalling the current one as the first.
EMA Source (Input): Specifies which price point (close, open, high, low, hl2, etc.) is used to calculate the EMA.
Interpretation & Potential Uses:
Identifying Re-tests: The signal highlights when price returns to test the EMA after having stayed away from it for the duration of the lookback period. This can be significant as the market re-evaluates the EMA level.
Potential Reversal/Continuation Points: A first touch might indicate:
A potential area where a trend might resume after a pullback (if price bounces off the EMA).
A potential area where a reversal might begin (if price strongly rejects the EMA).
A point of interest if price consolidates around the EMA after the first touch.
Filtering Noise: By focusing only on the first touch within a period, it can help filter out repeated touches that might occur during choppy or consolidating price action around the EMA.
Confluence: Traders might use this signal in conjunction with other forms of analysis (e.g., horizontal support/resistance, trendlines, candlestick patterns, other indicators) to strengthen trade setups.
Limitations:
Lagging: Like all moving averages, the EMA is a lagging indicator.
Not Predictive: The signal indicates a specific past event (the first touch) occurred; it doesn't guarantee a future price movement.
Parameter Dependent: The effectiveness and frequency of signals heavily depend on the chosen EMA Length and Lookback Period. These may need tuning for different assets and timeframes.
Requires Confirmation: It's generally recommended to use this indicator as part of a broader trading strategy and not rely solely on its signals for trade decisions.
In essence, the "First EMA Touch (Last N Bars)" indicator provides a specific, refined signal related to price interaction with a moving average, helping traders focus on potentially significant initial tests of the EMA after a period of separation.

Advanced Calculation: Uses an enhanced ATR-based algorithm that incorporates trend bias detection and momentum filtering
Multi-Factor Confirmation: Considers price interaction with previous Supertrend values, not just current crossovers
Contextual Awareness: Distinguishes between different entry types based on market risk levels and momentum conditions
Visual Enhancement: Provides background shading to clearly indicate trend direction and strength
Smart Trendline Algorithm
The indicator employs a proprietary Smart Trendline that adapts to market conditions using an advanced moving average system. Unlike traditional moving averages that simply track price, the Smart Trendline incorporates volatility data to change colors based on momentum strength, providing immediate visual feedback about the current market phase with zero lag.
Calculation: Processes price data through selectable advanced calculation methods (including Hull, Jurik, and McGinley averages) with dynamic color-coding based on a modified Keltner Channel system.
Visualization: Green indicates strong bullish momentum, purple represents bearish momentum, and gray signals consolidation or uncertain conditions.
Multi-Signal Confirmation System
The indicator integrates three distinct signal mechanisms to confirm trading opportunities:
1. RSI-Sequential Reversal Signals: Combines RSI levels with seq count patterns to identify potential short-term reversals.
Calculation: Analyzes RSI conditions against specific thresholds while tracking consecutive pattern formations.
Visualization: Green triangles for buy signals and red triangles for sell signals.
2. Statistical Reversal Signals: Identifies statistically significant deviations from normal price behavior.
Calculation: Uses a modified standard deviation approach to determine when price has moved too far from its statistical average.
Visualization: Large green arrows emoji for powerful buy signals and red arrows emoji for powerful sell signals.
3. Supply & Demand Zone Detection: Automatically identifies key price levels where significant buying or selling pressure may exist.
Calculation: Uses RSI extremes combined with confirmation periods to establish high-probability reversal zones.
Visualization: Green-filled areas mark support (demand) zones and red-filled areas mark resistance (supply) zones.
Buy/Sell Signal Generation
The system generates several types of signals with varying strengths:
1. Regular Buy/Sell Signals: Generated when:
Price crosses with MA above/below the Supertrend line
RSI conditions confirm the direction
Candlestick patterns support the signal direction (bullish/bearish candle formation)
Visualized as green/red triangles
2. Strong Buy/Sell Signals: Appear when multiple confirmation factors align:
Regular buy/sell condition is met
Price is interacting with a Supply/Demand zone
Additional momentum confirmation from auxiliary indicators
Seq count reaches significant levels
Statistical Reversal signal confirms the direction
3. Breakout Signals: Special case signals that appear during:
Trend transitions after consolidation
When price breaks through significant resistance/support levels from previous trend
Following pattern completions that suggest increased momentum
Market Structure Analysis
The indicator categorizes market conditions and provides visual cues for traders:
Trend Identification: Supertrend-based algorithm with enhanced visual presentation identifies the prevailing market direction.
Bar Coloring System: Candles change color based on price position relative to EMAs to clearly display strength and direction of momentum

Sell Signals: "Sell" signals, Red triangles (RSI-Sequential) and large red arrows (Statistical Reversals) appear at potential sell points.
Highest Probability Entries: Occur when signals appear near or within Supply & Demand zones.
Trading Strategies
Trend-Following Strategy
1. Identify the main trend using the Smart Trendline color
2. Enter long positions during uptrends when:
Price pulls back to the Smart Trendline
Green triangles or arrows appear
Signals occur near green demand zones
3. Enter short positions during downtrends when:
Price bounces up to the Smart Trendline
Red triangles or arrows appear
Signals occur near red supply zones
Counter-Trend/Reversal Strategy
1. Look for Statistical Reversal arrows at significant price extremes
2. Confirm with an RSI-Sequential signal in the same direction
3. Pay special attention when these signals appear inside Supply & Demand zones
4. Use the Smart Trendline color change as additional confirmation
Multiple Confirmation Technique
For highest probability trades, look for:
Signal alignment (both signal types in same direction)
Supply/Demand zone interaction
Smart Trendline color supporting the signal direction
❗️LIMITATIONS
Signal Lag: The system identifies reversals after they have begun, potentially missing the absolute bottom or top.
False Signals: Can occur during periods of high volatility or range-bound markets.
Timeframe Sensitivity: Some signals work better on higher timeframes for long-term trading, while others are more effective on lower timeframes for short-term trading.

The indicator incorporates Gann’s principles alongside mechanical trend-following techniques to offer a structured method for analyzing trends and detecting potential market reversals.
Golden Rule: Non-trend bars are excluded from analysis, and each new bar is compared with the previous trend bar, it highlights significant swing points with greater clarity.
🔸 The core concept behind the golden rule on which this indicator is built.
The person watching the tide coming, wanting to pinpoint the exact spot that signals the high tide, places a stick in the sand at the points where the incoming waves reach until the stick reaches a position where the waves no longer rise, and eventually recedes enough to show that the tide has shifted.
This method is effective for monitoring and identifying tides and floods in the stock market.
🔸Rule 1: The trend bar is everything.
→It is a bar that forms a new high, low, or both.
🔸Rule 2: The professional traders track new highs and lows.
🔸Rule 3: The hidden bar is nothing.
→It is a bar that does not form a new high, low, or both.
🔸Rule 4: The sea has a wavy nature, and the market as well.
🔸Rule 5: The slope is the immediate direction of the swing.
Downward slope
→The downslope is the descending slope of a swing, shows a decline, reflecting a bearish price trend.
Upward slope
→The upslope is the ascending slope of a swing, shows an incline, reflecting a bullish price trend.
🔸Rule 6: The start and end of the movement are the swing points.
→The lowest or highest price of the last bar in the direction of the slope represents the swing point after the slopes direction changes.
Valley
→It is the lowest price of the last bar in a downslope before the market turns to a upslope.
End=> Downward slope and Start=> Upward slope
Peak
→It is the highest price of the last bar in a upslope before the market turns to an downslope.
End=> Upward slope and Start=> Downward slope
🔸Rule 7: The Golden Rule: Ignore all no-trend bars and compare the new bar with the previous trend bar.
→Applying the golden rule in upward slope
→Applying the golden rule in downward slope

🔸 How does a trend start?
Upward trend
Trend change from Downward to Upward.
Prices must take out the nearest 'Peak' and the Trend was previously Downward.
A breakout above the previous peak signals a bullish reversal.
→ Model 1 - Dropping Valley Reversal
The market forms a dropping valley, followed by a breakout above the previous peak.
→ Model 2 - Equal Valley Reversal
The market forms an equal valley, followed by a breakout above the previous peak.
→ Model 3 - Rising Valley Reversal
The market forms a rising valley, followed by a breakout above the previous peak.
Downward trend
Trend change from Upward to Downward.
Prices must take out the nearest ‘Valley' and the Trend was previously Upward.
A breakdown below the previous valley signals a bearish reversal.
→ Model 1 - Rising Peak Reversal
The market forms a rising peak, followed by a breakdown below the previous valley.
→ Model 2 - Equal Peak Reversal
The market forms an equal peak, followed by a breakdown below the previous valley.
→ Model 3 - Dropping Peak Reversal
The market forms a dropping peak, followed by a breakdown below the previous valley.
🔸 The fractal nature of markets
Rising wave
→ The rising wave is the entire bull market between turning points
High point : When the Main trend turns from upward to downward, the peak of the primary trend is formed.
Dropping wave
→ The Dropping wave is the entire bear market between turning points.
Low point : When the Main trend turns from downward to upward, the primary trend valley is formed.

TR FVG & Swing High Low FinderTR FVG & Swing Level Finder
Overview:
The TR FVG & Swing Level Finder is a powerful Pine Script indicator designed for traders who want to identify Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Swing Highs/Lows on their charts. This indicator combines two essential technical analysis tools into one, helping traders spot potential areas of support, resistance, and trend reversals. FVGs are price gaps that often act as areas of interest for price to return to, while swing highs and lows help identify key turning points in the market. The indicator is highly customizable, allowing users to adjust colors, limits, and display options to suit their trading style.
Key Features:
1: Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detection:
- Identifies Bullish FVGs: Occur when the high of two candles ago is lower than the low of the current candle, indicating a potential upward price movement.
- Identifies Bearish FVGs: Occur when the low of two candles ago is higher than the high of the current candle, indicating a potential downward price movement.
- Displays FVGs as colored boxes on the chart, with customizable border and fill colors based on the timeframe.
- Labels each FVG box with the corresponding timeframe (e.g., "1m FVG", "1h FVG", "Daily FVG").
2: Swing High and Swing Low Detection:
- Detects Swing Highs: A 3-candle pattern where the middle candle's high is higher than the highs of the candles on either side.
- Detects Swing Lows: A 3-candle pattern where the middle candle's low is lower than the lows of the candles on either side.
- Draws a solid black line with 50% opacity at each swing high and low, extending 5 bars to the right for better visibility.
- Adds a small Swing High or Swing Low label at the right end of each line, colored according to user-defined settings.
3: Timeframe-Specific FVG Visualization:
- FVGs are color-coded based on the chart's timeframe, making it easy to distinguish between FVGs on different timeframes.
- Each timeframe has its own fill color for bullish and bearish FVGs, with adjustable transparency for better chart clarity.
- A dashed black line is drawn in the middle of each FVG box to highlight the midpoint of the gap.
4: Customizable Display Options:
- FVG Limit: Control the maximum number of FVGs displayed on the chart (from 1 to 20).
- Extend Options for FVG Boxes:
- "None": FVG boxes extend only 2 bars to the right.
- "Limited": FVG boxes extend a user-defined number of candles to the right (1 to 100 candles).
- "Default": FVG boxes extend 3 bars to the right of the current bar.
- Color Customization:
- Set border colors for bullish and bearish FVGs.
- Adjust fill colors for FVGs on different timeframes (1m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 4h, Daily, Weekly, Monthly).
- Customize the colors of swing high and swing low labels.
5: Performance Optimization:
- The indicator only plots FVGs and swings on the last confirmed bar (barstate.islastconfirmedhistory), ensuring efficient performance and reducing chart clutter.
- Limits the number of displayed FVGs and swings to the user-defined fvgLimit, keeping the chart clean and focused on the most recent price action.
6: Inputs and Customization:
- Number of FVGs to Show (fvgLimit): Set the maximum number of FVGs and swings to display (default: 3, range: 1 to 20).
- Bullish FVG Border Color (bullishColor): Choose the border color for bullish FVGs (default: green).
- Bearish FVG Border Color (bearishColor): Choose the border color for bearish FVGs (default: red).
- Swing High Color (swingHighColor): Set the color for swing high labels (default: blue).
- Swing Low Color (swingLowColor): Set the color for swing low labels (default: purple).
- Extend Options:
- Extend Option (extendOption): Choose how far FVG boxes extend to the right ("None", "Limited", or "Default"; default: "Default").
- Extend Candles (extendCandles): If "Limited" is selected, specify the number of candles to extend FVG boxes (default: 8, range: 1 to 100).
- Timeframe-Specific Fill Colors:
- Customize fill colors for bullish and bearish FVGs on various timeframes (1m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 4h, Daily, Weekly, Monthly).
- Each fill color has a default transparency (e.g., 93% for most timeframes, 90% for 30m), which can be adjusted as needed.
How to Use:
1: Add the Indicator to Your Chart:
- Open TradingView, go to the Pine Editor, and paste the script.
- Click "Add to Chart" to apply the indicator to your current chart.
2: Adjust Settings:
- Open the indicator settings by clicking the gear icon next to the indicator name on your chart.
- Modify the inputs to suit your preferences:
- Set the number of FVGs and swings to display.
- Choose your preferred colors for FVGs and swings.
- Adjust the extend options for FVG boxes.
3: Interpret the Indicator:
- FVG Boxes: Look for colored boxes on the chart, which represent Fair Value Gaps. Bullish FVGs (green borders by default) suggest potential buying opportunities, while bearish FVGs (red borders by default) suggest potential selling opportunities. The label inside each box indicates the timeframe of the FVG.
- Swing Highs and Lows: Identify key turning points with solid black lines (50% opacity) at swing highs and lows. Each line extends 5 bars to the right, with an "SH" (Swing High) or "SL" (Swing Low) label at the end. Swing highs can act as resistance levels, while swing lows can act as support levels.
4: Combine with Your Strategy:
- Use FVGs to identify areas where price might return to fill the gap, often acting as support or resistance.
- Use swing highs and lows to spot potential trend reversals or to set stop-loss and take-profit levels.
- Combine the indicator with other tools (e.g., trendlines, moving averages) for a more comprehensive trading strategy.
Notes:
- The indicator works on all timeframes, but the appearance of FVGs and swings will vary depending on the chart's timeframe.
- For best results, use the indicator on a clean chart to avoid visual clutter, especially if you increase the fvgLimit.
- The swing high/low lines are drawn with 50% opacity to ensure they don’t overpower other chart elements, but they are still clearly visible.

Cryptoin Awesome Indicator - Market StructureCryptoin Awesome Indicator - Market Structure (CAI-MS) 🌟
The Cryptoin Awesome Indicator - Market Structure (CAI-MS) is an advanced, proprietary overlay tool designed to decode market structure and price action dynamics with precision. Unlike traditional indicators that rely on lagging oscillators or moving averages, CAI-MS focuses on real-time swing point analysis and structural breakouts, offering traders a clear, actionable framework for identifying trend shifts, continuations, and key decision zones in forex, stocks, or crypto markets. 📊
What It Does: 📝
CAI-MS maps the market’s structural evolution by detecting and classifying swing points—Higher Highs (HH), Lower Highs (LH), Higher Lows (HL), and Lower Lows (LL)—based on a customizable lookback period. It then tracks price interactions with these levels to signal two critical events:
✅ Break of Structure (BOS): When price breaches a prior swing high or low, indicating potential trend continuation. 🚀
✅ Change of Character (CHoCH): When price invalidates the most recent swing in the opposite direction, suggesting a possible reversal. 🔄
Additionally, it plots fixed-length liquidity zones (BSL/SSL) derived from unbroken swing levels, helping traders anticipate support/resistance or stop-loss hunting areas. 🛡️
How It Works: ⚙️
The indicator uses a unique swing detection algorithm that analyzes price extremes over a user-defined number of bars (Swing Length). This avoids the noise of smaller fluctuations and focuses on significant pivots. Once a swing point is confirmed:
✅ It labels the pivot (e.g., HH, LH) to reflect the current structure. 🏷️
✅ If price breaks a prior high or low, a BOS line is drawn to mark the breakout, visually connecting the breached level to the breakout candle. 📏
✅ If the breakout reverses the prior trend (e.g., breaking a LH in a downtrend), it flags a CHoCH, alerting traders to a potential shift. ⚠️
✅ Unbroken swing levels extend as BSL/SSL lines for a fixed duration, offering strategic reference points. 🎯
This methodology combines structural analysis with breakout confirmation, distilled into a clean, overlay format that doesn’t clutter charts with redundant data.
Key Features: ✨
✅ Swing Point Detection: Identifies and labels HH, LH, HL, and LL with adjustable sensitivity, ensuring relevance across timeframes. 🔍
✅ BOS & CHoCH Visualization: Plots breakout lines and labels to highlight trend momentum or reversal setups. 📈
✅ Liquidity Zones (BSL/SSL): Extends prior swing levels as potential support/resistance, with customizable length and style. 🧱
✅ Customization: Toggle labels on/off, adjust line colors, styles (solid, dashed, dotted), and thickness to match your workflow. 🎨
✅ Original Approach: Unlike public tools relying on MAs or RSI, CAI-MS uses a proprietary pivot-based system tailored for structure traders. 🦄
Why It’s Valuable: 💎
This isn’t a mashup of classic indicators—it’s a purpose-built solution for market structure enthusiasts. Public scripts often flood charts with generic signals; CAI-MS delivers focused, context-aware insights by synthesizing swing analysis, breakout detection, and liquidity projection into one cohesive tool. Its closed-source design protects a unique algorithm that adapts to price action without overfitting or repackaging common techniques.
How to Use It: 🛠️
✅ Trend Continuation: Enter long after a BOS above a prior HH, or short below a prior LL, using BSL/SSL as take-profit zones. 📈
✅ Reversal Trades: Watch for CHoCH signals (e.g., price breaking a LH in a downtrend) to anticipate shifts, with BSL/SSL as stop-loss guides. 🔄
✅ Scalping/Swing Trading: Adjust Swing Length (e.g., 10 for scalping, 50 for swings) to match your timeframe. ⏱️
Pair it with a clean chart (no other indicators needed) to maximize clarity—add drawings like trendlines if desired, but the indicator stands alone.
Customization Options: 🖌️
✅ Swing Length: Increase (e.g., 50) for fewer, stronger pivots; decrease (e.g., 10) for more frequent signals. ⚖️
✅ Visuals: Enable/disable swing labels, tweak BOS line styles, or adjust BSL/SSL length (default: 50 bars). 🎚️
BCVC - Volume & Big Candle ColorThe BCVC (Volume & Big Candle Color) indicator helps traders identify significant price movements accompanied by unusual volume activity. By dynamically coloring bars based on volume spikes and candle size, it highlights potential momentum shifts, breakouts, or reversals. This tool is ideal for traders who want to:
Spot institutional buying/selling activity.
Confirm trend strength using volume and price volatility.
Filter noise by focusing on high-impact bars.
Key Features
Volume Spike Detection:
Compares current volume to a moving average (EMA) of volume.
Highlights bars where volume exceeds the average by a user-defined multiplier.
Big Candle Detection:
Identifies bars with a range (high-low) larger than the historical average range (EMA of candle ranges).
Thresholds for "big candles" are customizable.
Color-Coded Logic:
White Bars: High volume + Big candle + Bullish (close > open).
Orange Bars: High volume + Big candle + Bearish (close < open).
Blue Bars: High volume + Regular candle + Bullish.
Maroon Bars: High volume + Regular candle + Bearish.
Input Parameters
Volume Settings:
Volume Period: EMA length for average volume calculation (default: 20).
Volume Multiplier: Threshold multiplier for volume spikes (e.g., 1.25 = 25% above average).
Candle Size Settings:
Lookback Period: EMA length for average candle range (default: 7).
Big Candle Multiplier: Threshold multiplier for large candles (e.g., 1.3 = 30% above average range).
How It Works
Volume Analysis:
The indicator calculates an EMA of volume over the specified period.
If the current bar’s volume exceeds Average Volume × Volume Multiplier, it’s flagged as a high-volume bar.
Candle Range Analysis:
The average candle range (high-low) is calculated using an EMA over the lookback period.
A "big candle" is identified when the current bar’s range exceeds Average Range × Big Candle Multiplier.
Combined Signals:
High-volume bars are colored based on whether they are bullish/bearish and whether their range exceeds the big-candle threshold.
Example: A white bar (high volume + big candle + bullish) suggests strong buying pressure with institutional participation.
Usage Scenarios
Breakout Confirmation: A white/orange bar at a support/resistance level may validate a breakout.
Reversal Signals: A maroon/orange bar after a long trend could indicate exhaustion and potential reversal.
Trend Strength: Clusters of blue/white bars during uptrends (or maroon/orange in downtrends) confirm momentum.
Benefits
Visual Clarity: Instantly spot high-impact bars without manually scanning volume or candle size.
Customizable Sensitivity: Adjust multipliers to filter noise (e.g., increase for fewer signals).
Universal Application: Works on all timeframes and instruments (stocks, forex, crypto).
Notes
Best Paired With: Trendlines, support/resistance levels, or momentum oscillators (e.g., RSI).
Avoid False Signals: Use higher multipliers (e.g., 1.5) on lower timeframes to reduce noise.
Market Structure Break with Volume & ATR#### Indicator Overview:
The *Market Structure Break with Volume & ATR (MSB+VolATR)* indicator is designed to identify significant market structure breakouts and breakdowns using a combination of price action, volume analysis, and volatility (ATR). It is particularly useful for traders who rely on higher timeframes for swing trading or positional trading. The indicator highlights bullish and bearish breakouts, retests, fakeouts, and potential buy/sell signals based on RSI overbought/oversold conditions.
---
### Key Features:
1. *Market Structure Analysis*:
- Identifies swing highs and lows on a user-defined higher timeframe.
- Detects breakouts and breakdowns when price exceeds these levels with volume and ATR validation.
2. *Volume Validation*:
- Ensures breakouts are accompanied by above-average volume, reducing the likelihood of false signals.
3. *ATR Filter*:
- Filters out insignificant breakouts by requiring the breakout size to exceed a multiple of the ATR.
4. *RSI Integration*:
- Adds a momentum filter by considering overbought/oversold conditions using RSI.
5. *Visual Enhancements*:
- Draws colored boxes to highlight breakout zones.
- Labels breakouts, retests, and fakeouts for easy interpretation.
- Displays stop levels for potential trades.
6. *Alerts*:
- Provides alert conditions for buy and sell signals, enabling real-time notifications.
---
### Input Settings and Their Effects:
1. **Timeframe (tf):
- Determines the higher timeframe for market structure analysis.
- *Effect*: A higher timeframe (e.g., 1D) reduces noise and provides more reliable swing points, while a lower timeframe (e.g., 4H) may generate more frequent but less reliable signals.
2. **Lookback Period (length):
- Defines the number of historical bars used to identify significant highs and lows.
- *Effect*: A longer lookback period (e.g., 50) captures broader market structure, while a shorter period (e.g., 20) reacts faster to recent price action.
3. **ATR Length (atr_length):
- Sets the period for ATR calculation.
- *Effect*: A shorter ATR length (e.g., 14) reacts faster to recent volatility, while a longer length (e.g., 21) smooths out volatility spikes.
4. **ATR Multiplier (atr_multiplier):
- Filters insignificant breakouts by requiring the breakout size to exceed ATR × multiplier.
- *Effect*: A higher multiplier (e.g., 0.2) reduces false signals but may miss smaller breakouts.
5. **Volume Multiplier (volume_multiplier):
- Sets the volume threshold for breakout validation.
- *Effect*: A higher multiplier (e.g., 1.0) ensures stronger volume confirmation but may reduce the number of signals.
6. **RSI Length (rsi_length):
- Defines the period for RSI calculation.
- *Effect*: A shorter RSI length (e.g., 10) makes the indicator more sensitive to recent price changes, while a longer length (e.g., 20) smooths out RSI fluctuations.
7. *RSI Overbought/Oversold Levels*:
- Sets the thresholds for overbought (default: 70) and oversold (default: 30) conditions.
- *Effect*: Adjusting these levels can make the indicator more or less conservative in generating signals.
8. **Stop Loss Multiplier (SL_Multiplier):
- Determines the distance of the stop-loss level from the entry price based on ATR.
- *Effect*: A higher multiplier (e.g., 2.0) provides wider stops, reducing the risk of being stopped out prematurely but increasing potential losses.
---
### How It Works:
1. *Breakout Detection*:
- A bullish breakout occurs when the close exceeds the highest high of the lookback period, with volume above the threshold and breakout size exceeding ATR × multiplier.
- A bearish breakout occurs when the close falls below the lowest low of the lookback period, with similar volume and ATR validation.
2. *Retest Logic*:
- After a breakout, if price retests the breakout zone without closing beyond it, a retest label is displayed.
3. *Fakeout Detection*:
- If price briefly breaks out but reverses back into the range, a fakeout label is displayed.
4. *Buy/Sell Signals*:
- A sell signal is generated when price reverses below a bullish breakout zone and RSI is overbought.
- A buy signal is generated when price reverses above a bearish breakout zone and RSI is oversold.
5. *Stop Levels*:
- Stop-loss levels are plotted based on ATR × SL_Multiplier, providing a visual guide for risk management.
---
### Who Can Use It and How:
1. *Swing Traders*:
- Use the indicator on daily or 4-hour timeframes to identify high-probability breakout trades.
- Combine with other technical analysis tools (e.g., trendlines, Fibonacci levels) for confirmation.
2. *Positional Traders*:
- Apply the indicator on weekly or daily charts to capture long-term trends.
- Use the stop-loss levels to manage risk over extended periods.
3. *Algorithmic Traders*:
- Integrate the buy/sell signals into automated trading systems.
- Use the alert conditions to trigger trades programmatically.
4. *Risk-Averse Traders*:
- Adjust the ATR and volume multipliers to filter out low-probability trades.
- Use wider stop-loss levels to avoid premature exits.
---
### Where to Use It:
- *Forex*: Identify breakouts in major currency pairs.
- *Stocks*: Spot trend reversals in high-volume stocks.
- *Commodities*: Trade breakouts in gold, oil, or other commodities.
- *Crypto*: Apply to Bitcoin, Ethereum, or other cryptocurrencies for volatile breakout opportunities.
---
### Example Use Case:
- *Timeframe*: 1D
- *Lookback Period*: 50
- *ATR Length*: 14
- *ATR Multiplier*: 0.1
- *Volume Multiplier*: 0.5
- *RSI Length*: 14
- *RSI Overbought/Oversold*: 70/30
- *SL Multiplier*: 1.5
In this setup, the indicator will:
1. Identify significant swing highs and lows on the daily chart.
2. Validate breakouts with volume and ATR filters.
3. Generate buy/sell signals when price reverses and RSI confirms overbought/oversold conditions.
4. Plot stop-loss levels for risk management.
---
### Conclusion:
The *MSB+VolATR* indicator is a versatile tool for traders seeking to capitalize on market structure breakouts with added confirmation from volume and volatility. By customizing the input settings, traders can adapt the indicator to their preferred trading style and risk tolerance. Whether you're a swing trader, positional trader, or algorithmic trader, this indicator provides actionable insights to enhance your trading strategy.
