Order Blocks & ImbalanceThis indicator automatically identifies and plots Order Blocks (also known as Fair Value Gaps or Imbalances) based on Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and ICT methodology. It detects significant price inefficiencies (gaps between candles) that often act as institutional supply or demand zones.
How It Works (Technical Methodology)
1. Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detection
The indicator identifies classic 3-candle imbalances:
- Bullish Order Block (Demand): When the low of the current candle is significantly below the high of the candle two bars ago (low - high ).
- Bearish Order Block (Supply): When the high of the current candle is significantly above the low of the candle two bars ago (low - high ).
A minimum size threshold is enforced using ATR(14) × user-defined multiplier (default 0.5) to filter out minor gaps and focus on meaningful inefficiencies.
2. Zone Creation
- Bullish zones are created at the candle two bars ago (the "origin" candle where inefficiency occurred).
- Bearish zones use the same origin candle.
- Zone boundaries:
Top = high of origin candle
Bottom = low of origin candle
This captures the full range where price moved aggressively, leaving an imbalance that institutions may later revisit.
3. Mitigation Detection
Zones can be mitigated in two ways (user-selectable):
- "Close": Zone is considered touched only if the close price enters the zone.
- "Wick": Zone is touched if any wick (high/low) enters the zone (more sensitive).
When mitigated:
- Background becomes more transparent
- Border turns dotted
- Label changes to "Mitigated"
Broken zones (price fully closes beyond the opposite side) are automatically deleted.
4. Zone Lifecycle Management
- Active Zone: Strong color fill (green for demand, red for supply) with solid border.
- Mitigated Zone: Faded color, dotted border – indicates partial fill or reduced strength.
- Broken Zone: Automatically removed from chart to reduce clutter.
Old zones are also pruned when exceeding 450 total to maintain performance.
5. Smart Visibility Engine (Optional)
When enabled:
- All zones are initially hidden.
- Only the closest relevant zones are shown:
- Up to user-defined limit (default 10) highest bullish zones (closest below price)
- Up to user-defined limit (default 10) lowest bearish zones (closest above price)
- Visible zones are automatically extended to the right and styled appropriately.
This keeps the chart clean while highlighting the most actionable zones near current price.
6. Visual Elements
- Demand Zones: Green fill, labeled "OB Demand"
- Supply Zones: Red fill, labeled "OB Supply"
- Tiny text size to minimize chart clutter
- Zones drawn as boxes using bar_index positioning
How to Use
Order Blocks represent areas of price inefficiency where smart money likely entered/exited positions aggressively.
- Demand Zones (Green): Potential long entry areas when price returns. Expect buying pressure to defend these levels. Best setups when price retests an active (non-mitigated) zone.
- Supply Zones (Red): Potential short entry areas when price returns. Expect selling pressure to emerge.
- Mitigated Zones: Lower probability – may act as weaker support/resistance.
- Smart Visibility: Highly recommended for cleaner charts. Focuses attention on zones most likely to be tested soon.
- Combine with:
- Break of Structure (BOS)/Change of Character (CHOCH)
- Liquidity grabs
- Higher timeframe confluence
- Volume or momentum confirmation
Use higher FVG threshold (e.g., 0.8–1.0) for fewer, higher-quality zones. Lower threshold for more aggressive detection.

Exhaustion [Lite]EXHAUSTION — Lite is a simplified sequential exhaustion instrument based on a Hull Moving Average with a 9-count structure. It is designed to expose when continuation begins to weaken, not to call tops or bottoms. The Lite version shows local exhaustion pressure only (LTF/MTF).
What the Lite Version Shows
HMA-based trend state (Green / Red)
Sequential counting up to 9
Local exhaustion points in the current timeframe
What it does not include:
No higher-timeframe structure
No dashboard or multi-timeframe context
Those layers are intentionally removed.
How to Use (Lite Workflow) :
Core Idea :
Continuation weakens as the count progresses.
The higher the count, the less reliable continuation becomes.
Basic Reading
Counts 1–3 → early continuation
Counts 4–6 → trend aging
Counts 7–9 → exhaustion risk
A 9 marks pressure — not a guaranteed reversal.
Practical Usage :
Trend Context (Single Timeframe)
Stay aligned with the HMA color
Treat late counts (7–9) as risk, not signals
Avoid entering fresh positions late in the sequence
Timing Awareness
Exhaustion matters most near:
prior highs/lows
liquidity zones
session extremes
The Lite version is about awareness, not execution precision.
Important Note :
Exhaustion — Lite does not show higher-timeframe exhaustion or alignment.
Without HTF context, exhaustion should be treated as local pressure only. If you want: HTF interaction and a multi-time frame dashboard, that belongs to the Full indicator.

RSS3 - Reversal Score System v3 [Rulph]RSS3 - Reversal Score System v3
RSS3 is a quantitative reversal detection system that combines volatility pressure analysis with directional momentum exhaustion to produce a unified reversal strength score from -1 (extreme bullish) to +1 (extreme bearish).
Unlike traditional single-indicator divergence systems (RSI, MACD), RSS3 cross-validates signals between two independent analytical engines (VPI and TDFI) and applies multi-timeframe contextual filtering to reduce false signals.
RSS3 is not a visual overlay of separate indicators. It implements a unified calculation pipeline where VPI and TDFI components feed into a single normalized Score through weighted aggregation. The divergence bonus system creates feedback loops where price-indicator relationships dynamically adjust the final Score, producing signals that cannot be replicated by simply viewing RSI, Bollinger Bands, and moving averages side-by-side.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHY COMBINE VOLATILITY + TREND FORCE?
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Most reversal systems rely on a single dimension:
• RSI divergence tracks momentum exhaustion
• Bollinger extremes track volatility expansion
• MACD divergence tracks trend deceleration
RSS3 recognizes that major reversals typically require both :
1. Volatility pressure buildup (market stretched beyond normal range)
2. Directional force exhaustion (trend losing momentum despite stretched price)
When VPI (volatility) and TDFI (trend force) diverge simultaneously from price, it signals a high-probability reversal zone. When only one diverges, the signal is weighted accordingly.
This dual-validation approach filters out:
• Momentum exhaustion in low-volatility consolidations (no VPI confirmation)
• Volatility spikes within strong trends (no TDFI exhaustion)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
COMPONENT 1: VOLATILITY PRESSURE INDEX (VPI)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
VPI quantifies how far the market has deviated from its equilibrium state using four factors:
1. RSI deviation from 50
Measures directional bias accumulation. When RSI stays at 70+ or 30- for extended periods, it signals persistent one-sided pressure.
2. Annualized volatility (VIX-style)
Calculates rolling standard deviation of returns scaled to annual terms. Rising volatility indicates increasing uncertainty and potential for mean reversion.
3. Normalized candle range
Compares current bar's range to recent average range. Expanding ranges signal climactic moves.
4. Bollinger Band position
Measures price distance from statistical mean (middle band). Touches or penetrations of outer bands indicate statistical overextension.
How they combine:
Each component is normalized to 0-1 scale, then weighted based on current market regime (trending vs ranging). The weighted average produces VPI reading where:
• VPI > 0.5 = overbought pressure zone
• VPI < -0.5 = oversold pressure zone
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
COMPONENT 2: TREND DIRECTION FORCE INDEX (TDFI)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
TDFI measures the strength and sustainability of directional movement using moving average dynamics:
1. MA spread (fast MMA vs slow SMMA)
When fast MA pulls far from slow MA, it indicates strong directional momentum. When the spread contracts, momentum is fading.
2. Average impulse between MAs
Calculates the velocity of the spread change. Rapid expansion = acceleration phase; slowing expansion or contraction = deceleration/exhaustion.
3. Normalized trend strength
The spread and impulse are normalized relative to recent volatility to make TDFI comparable across different instruments and market conditions.
Output:
• TDFI > 0.7 = unsustainably strong bullish momentum
• TDFI < -0.7 = unsustainably strong bearish momentum
• TDFI near 0 = directionless or balanced market
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SCORE CALCULATION & DIVERGENCE INTEGRATION
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Base Score:
Score = (VPI_weight × VPI) + (TDFI_weight × TDFI)
This creates a continuous measure where:
• Score > +0.5 = bearish reversal zone (high VPI + weak bullish TDFI)
• Score < -0.5 = bullish reversal zone (low VPI + weak bearish TDFI)
Divergence Bonus System:
When classic divergences are detected (price makes new high/low but VPI or TDFI doesn't), a bonus/penalty is applied to Score:
• Decay mechanism: Divergence influence fades linearly over 15 bars (default). Fresh divergences have maximum impact; older ones gradually lose weight.
• Amplitude weighting: Larger divergences (bigger spread between price and indicator pivots) receive stronger bonuses.
• Dual-source amplification: When VPI and TDFI diverge on the same pivot (double divergence), their bonuses stack, creating extreme Score readings near ±1.0.
This means:
• Score = 0.9 with v3t2 label = third VPI + second TDFI bearish divergence, very high confidence
• Score = -0.85 with v1 label = first VPI bullish divergence, strong but early signal
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
CALCULATION MECHANICS (DETAILED)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
VPI Component Weighting:
Weights are dynamically adjusted based on market regime detected by TDFI:
• Trending regime (|TDFI| > 0.5): RSI deviation 40%, BB position 30%, volatility 15%, range 15%
• Ranging regime (|TDFI| < 0.3): Volatility 35%, range 35%, RSI deviation 15%, BB position 15%
• Transition zones: linear interpolation between the two weight sets
Normalization Approach:
Each VPI/TDFI component is rescaled using rolling percentile rank over 100-bar window:
• Value at 100th percentile (highest) → 1.0
• Value at 0th percentile (lowest) → 0.0
• Current value → percentile position between 0-1
This makes the indicator adaptive to changing volatility and comparable across instruments.
Divergence Amplitude Measurement:
When a divergence is detected, its strength is quantified as:
Amplitude = (price_pivot_delta / ATR) × (indicator_pivot_delta / indicator_stddev)
Where:
• price_pivot_delta = distance between current and previous pivot
• indicator_pivot_delta = distance between indicator values at those pivots
• ATR and stddev provide normalization
Larger amplitude → larger bonus/penalty to Score (up to ±0.3 maximum).
Decay Function:
Divergence bonus decays linearly: Bonus(t) = Initial_Bonus × (1 - t/15), where t is bars since divergence. After 15 bars, bonus reaches zero. This ensures recent divergences dominate the Score.
Why This Design:
This architecture creates a system where:
• Components adapt to market regime automatically
• Signals are normalized across timeframes and instruments
• Multiple divergences create amplification (bonuses stack)
• Stale signals fade out naturally
This is fundamentally different from displaying RSI + Bollinger + MA separately, as the unified Score cannot be replicated by visual inspection alone.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SEQUENTIAL DIVERGENCE LABELS (v/t SYSTEM)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Each divergence is tracked separately for VPI and TDFI:
v-series: VPI divergences (v1, v2, v3...)
t-series: TDFI divergences (t1, t2, t3...)
The counter increments each time a new divergence appears in the same direction (e.g., consecutive bearish divergences). When direction flips (bearish → bullish), counters reset to 1.
Why this matters:
• v1 or t1 = early warning, potentially premature
• v3 or v4 = late-stage exhaustion, higher probability of reversal
• v2t3 = double divergence with second VPI + third TDFI = strong confluence
Traders can filter signals by label:
• Aggressive: trade v1/t1
• Conservative: wait for v2+/t2+ or double divergences
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
MULTI-TIMEFRAME FILTER
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The MTF filter analyzes a higher timeframe to determine if the current market structure supports the divergence signal.
Modes:
• Off: All divergences shown
• Reduce: Counter-trend divergences have their bonus reduced by 70% (visual indication: dimmed/gray markers)
• Block: Counter-trend divergences completely hidden
Logic:
If 1H shows bearish divergence but 4H is in strong uptrend (Score < -0.3), the 1H signal is likely premature. MTF filter prevents entering shorts against higher timeframe momentum.
This protects against:
• Catching falling knives in strong downtrends
• Shorting pullbacks in strong uptrends
• Low-probability mean-reversion attempts
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HOW TO USE RSS3
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Entry Setup:
1. Wait for divergence marker (green = bullish, red = bearish)
2. Check Score magnitude:
• |Score| > 0.5 = higher confidence
• |Score| > 0.8 = extreme zone
3. Check v/t label:
• v1/t1 = early (more risk, more reward potential)
• v2+/t2+ or double = late but more reliable
4. Optional: wait +2 bars for pivot confirmation
Exit Options:
• Conservative: opposite divergence appears
• Aggressive: Score crosses through 0 or opposite ±0.5 threshold
• Always use volatility-based stop (2-3× ATR)
Timeframe Recommendations:
• 5-15m: intraday (use MTF 1H-4H)
• 1-4H: swing trading (use MTF Daily-Weekly)
• Daily: position trading (use MTF Weekly-Monthly)
Complementary Tools:
RSS3 is a reversal timing engine, not a complete strategy. Combine with:
• Support/resistance for target zones
• Volume analysis for confirmation
• Trend filters for directional bias
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHAT MAKES RSS3 ORIGINAL
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
vs Traditional RSI Divergence:
• RSI divergence = binary yes/no
• RSS3 = quantified strength score with dual-source validation
vs MACD Divergence:
• MACD = single dimension (momentum)
• RSS3 = volatility pressure + trend force + MTF context
vs Bollinger + RSI mashup:
• Standard mashup = two separate signals
• RSS3 = unified scoring system where components interact through weighted bonuses
Unique features:
• Decay-weighted divergence bonuses (recent divergences matter more)
• Amplitude-sensitive scoring (stronger divergences = higher score impact)
• Sequential tracking (v/t labels show signal maturity)
• MTF-aware filtering (context-dependent signal validation)
• Closed-loop system (divergences → Score → priority weighting → signal)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
EXAMPLE INTERPRETATION
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Scenario: BTC 2H chart shows:
• Red triangle appears above price
• Label: v1 + t2
• Recent Score Value: 1
What this means:
• Second consecutive TDFI bearish divergence detected (t2)
• First VPI bearish divergence on same pivot (v1)
• Double divergence stacking → Score near maximum
• Market is in extreme overbought/overextended zone
• High probability of short-term reversal
Trading decision:
• Aggressive trader: short immediately with tight stop
• Conservative trader: wait for Score to drop below 0.5 or opposite divergence for exit
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
CHART LEGEND
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The published chart shows:
• Green triangles below price = bullish divergences (v/t labels indicate sequence)
• Red triangles above price = bearish divergences
• Score line in lower panel = reversal strength from -1 to +1
• Colored clouds = pressure accumulation zones (optional display)
• Text annotations = example entry/exit points for educational purposes

4 EMAs with Narrow Range HighlightThis script is apply 4 EMAs in single indicator 20, 50, 100, 200 EMAs, this also highlights narrow ranges with blue colour
Hybrid CCI Scalper ProHybrid CCI Scalper Pro is a sophisticated trading system designed to solve the biggest problem in scalping: False Signals in Choppy Markets.
Unlike standard CCI indicators that fire on every crossover, the HCS Pro uses a Hybrid Logic Engine that distinguishes between high-probability Trend Continuations and powerful Reversal Setups. It processes every potential entry through a 6-factor "Quality Filter" before generating a signal.
Core Features:
1. The Hybrid Signal Engine The script identifies two distinct market conditions:
TREND Mode: Triggers when price is aligned with the Daily/Local trend AND the CCI angle is steep.
REVERSAL Mode (REV): Triggers only on Extreme Momentum (steep angle) combined with a Zero-Line cross, allowing you to catch tops and bottoms without waiting for lagging trend indicators.
2. The Quality Scoring System (Q-Score) Every signal is rated from 0 to 6 stars based on confluence. The signal label shows Q: 4/6, Q: 5/6, etc.
Score 4+: High probability (Recommended).
Score 6: "The Perfect Storm" – All filters (Trend, Volume, RSI, ADX) align.
3. The "Ironclad" Filters To eliminate fake-outs, the script enforces strict rules:
Candle Color Guard: Never Buys on a Red candle or Sells on a Green one.
Angle validation: Flat CCI movement is ignored.
MTF Trend: Checks the Daily timeframe (D1 EMA) to ensure you aren't scalping against the major flow.
Noise Filter: Uses ATR and Volume to ignore low-volatility "dead" markets.
4. The Information Panel A clean dashboard on the top-right displays real-time metrics:
Current Daily Trend (Bull/Bear)
Momentum Strength (Weak/Strong/Extreme)
ADX Power (Trending vs Ranging)
Live Signal Score
How to Trade:
BUY Signal: Look for a Green Triangle. Ideally, the Label should say TREND or REV with a Quality Score of 4/6 or higher.
SELL Signal: Look for a Red Triangle with a high Quality Score.
No Signal? If the panel says "WAIT" or the score is low, the market is likely choppy. Stay out.
Recommended Settings:
Gold (XAUUSD): Works best on 15m.
Forex (EURUSD): Works well on 5m - 15m.
Default settings are optimized for a balance between frequency and accuracy.
Witch-Fire ALMA signals: Dynamic Liquidity & Trend GlowThe Witch-Fire ALMA is a high-precision trend bias and liquidity mapping tool designed for price action traders and Smart Money practitioners. Unlike traditional indicators that clutter your chart with lagging signals, this script provides a "clean-yet-powerful" visual anchor to help you stay on the right side of the market while identifying key Points of Interest (POIs).
At its core, the script utilizes an optimized Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA). Known for its superior ability to balance smoothness and responsiveness, the ALMA effectively filters out market noise and "whipsaws" that often plague standard EMAs.
Key Features:
The Witch-Fire Glow: A neon-styled ALMA line that shifts between Bullish Green and Bearish Red. The white core provides surgical precision for price intersection, while the outer glow visualizes the strength and dominance of the current trend.
Scaled Liquidity Levels: Automatically maps Buy Side Liquidity (BSL) and Sell Side Liquidity (SSL). These levels are dynamic—they scale proportionally with your ALMA settings. This ensures that the liquidity zones you see are always relevant to the trend cycle you are analyzing.
Strategic Bias Background: A subtle background tint provides an instant psychological filter. Only look for Longs in the green zone and Shorts in the red zone to maintain a high-probability strike rate.
How to Trade with Witch-Fire:
Identify the Bias: Look at the Fire ALMA. If the "fire" is red and the price is below the line, your bias is strictly bearish.
Watch the Sweeps: Wait for the price to "sweep" (pierce with a wick) the horizontal SSL (Green) or BSL (Red) lines.
Execution: Look for a strong rejection candle (long wick, small body) at these levels that closes back towards the ALMA line.
Best Used On: 15m, 1H, and 4H timeframes. Works exceptionally well for Crypto, Forex, and Indices.

[ASFX] Free Automatic VWAPsAutomatic VWAP & Key Levels
Overview
This indicator is designed to help traders evaluate VWAP interactions in context, rather than treating every VWAP touch as a trade opportunity. It combines VWAP with a momentum-based directional filter to highlight situations where price interaction with VWAP is supported by broader intraday momentum. This indicator also shows you the initial balance and opening range each day.
Concept and Originality
VWAP is commonly used as an institutional reference level, but VWAP alone does not distinguish between meaningful acceptance/rejection and random intraday chop. This script addresses that limitation by conditioning VWAP interactions with a momentum filter. Signals are only displayed when price location and momentum alignment occur together, allowing traders to focus on higher-quality VWAP reactions instead of monitoring multiple indicators separately.
How It Works
• VWAP is used as the primary price reference level.
• A momentum filter evaluates directional bias and participation.
• Visual signals appear only when price is interacting with VWAP and momentum confirms acceptance or rejection in the same direction.
• No signals are shown during low-momentum or sideways conditions around VWAP.
How to Use
This indicator is best used as a confirmation tool, not as a standalone trading system. It is intended to assist traders in filtering VWAP-based trade ideas by highlighting when conditions are aligned versus when price is simply chopping around VWAP.
Markets and Timeframes
• Designed for index futures such as ES and NQ
• Optimized for intraday trading
• Works best on lower timeframes (1–5 minute charts)
Limitations
• Not predictive
• Not a complete trading strategy
• Does not replace price action analysis, trade management, or risk control
• Signals should be evaluated alongside market structure and context

### **Liquidity Sweep:**
Smart money intentionally pushes price beyond key levels to trigger retail stop losses, then reverses to their intended direction. The X marker identifies these moments.
### **Swing Failure Pattern (SFP):**
Price attempts to make a new high/low but lacks follow-through, indicating weak momentum and likely reversal. Similar to a "false breakout" but more specific to swing structures.
### **Supply & Demand Zones:**
- **Red zones** = Areas where selling pressure overwhelmed buyers
- **Green zones** = Areas where buying pressure overwhelmed sellers
- These zones act as magnets for price to return and react

Inside Bar Detector
Inside Bar & Internal Structure
A precise tool for identifying Inside Bars and tracking price range breakouts with internal market structure visualization.
🎯 What It Does
This indicator detects Inside Bars (consolidation patterns) and classifies how price breaks out of established ranges. It helps traders identify:
• Consolidation zones where price is coiling
• Directional breakouts (up or down)
• Liquidity sweeps where price tests both sides before committing to a direction
📊 Key Features
Inside Bar Detection - Automatically identifies when current bar's range is contained within the previous range
Range Visualization - Draws dashed rectangle boxes around Inside Bar sequences
Breakout Classification - Categorizes breaks as: Break High, Break Low, or Expansion
Sweep Detection - Labels bars that sweep both sides of the range before closing directionally
Internal Structure Lines - Connects swing highs and lows to visualize market structure
Statistics Panel - Real-time count of Inside Bars and breakout types
🔧 How It Works
1. Price Range Tracking : The indicator maintains a dynamic price range (high/low) that updates on each breakout
2. Inside Bar Logic : A bar is classified as Inside Bar when its high ≤ range high AND low ≥ range low
3. Breakout Detection :
• Break High : Price closes above the range (bullish)
• Break Low : Price closes below the range (bearish)
• Sweep : Price tests both sides but closes directionally (labeled as Sweep↑ or Sweep↓)
• Expansion : Price breaks both sides but closes in the middle (neutral)
⚙️ Settings
Display Settings
- Show Inside Bar Box: Toggle rectangle visualization
- Show Statistics: Display count panel
- Show Sweep Labels: Mark liquidity sweep events
Internal Structure Settings
- Show Internal Structure Lines: Connect swing points
- Line Color & Width: Customize appearance
Color Settings
- Inside Bar Box Color & Transparency
📈 How To Use
• Trend Continuation : Look for Inside Bars forming after a strong move, then trade the breakout in the trend direction
• Reversal Setups : Watch for sweep patterns (Sweep↑/Sweep↓) at key levels - these often indicate liquidity grabs before reversals
• Structure Analysis : Use internal structure lines to identify the current market bias
⚠️ Alerts
The indicator includes 4 alert conditions:
• Inside Bar Detected
• Break High (includes bullish sweeps)
• Break Low (includes bearish sweeps)
• Dual Expansion (neutral)
📋 Notes
• Works on all timeframes and instruments

SMA MAD Trend [Alpha Extract]A sophisticated trend identification system that combines Simple Moving Average with Mean Absolute Deviation methodology to create adaptive Super Trend-style bands with advanced strength filtering and gradient visualization. Utilizing ADX-based trend strength validation and slope analysis for signal quality enhancement, this indicator delivers institutional-grade trend detection with dynamic ATR-based ribbon visualization and comprehensive strength measurement. The system's dual-filter architecture eliminates false signals during weak or choppy market conditions while maintaining sensitivity to genuine trend establishment and reversal events.
🔶 Advanced SMA-MAD Band Construction
Implements innovative Mean Absolute Deviation calculation around Simple Moving Average baseline to create volatility-adaptive bands with ratcheting logic for trend persistence. The system calculates MAD by measuring absolute price deviations from the mean, then applies configurable multipliers to generate upper and lower bands that adjust to changing market conditions while preventing premature band violations.
// Core SMA-MAD Framework
SMA_Value = ta.sma(close, SMA_Length)
Mean = ta.sma(close, MAD_Length)
Abs_Deviation = abs(close - Mean)
MAD_Value = ta.sma(Abs_Deviation, MAD_Length)
// Adaptive Bands
Upper_Band = SMA_Value + MAD_Factor * MAD_Value
Lower_Band = SMA_Value - MAD_Factor * MAD_Value
🔶 Intelligent Dual-Filter System
Features comprehensive trend validation using ADX strength measurement and slope analysis to eliminate low-conviction signals during ranging or consolidating markets. The system calculates normalized slope strength using ATR scaling and combines with ADX threshold analysis, generating filtered trend states that distinguish genuine trends from temporary price fluctuations.
🔶 Dynamic Trend Strength Engine
Implements sophisticated strength calculation combining slope intensity and ADX readings to produce normalized 0-100% strength scores with gradient colour intensity modulation. The system normalizes slope by minimum threshold and ADX by configurable level, multiplying factors to create composite strength measurement that drives visual feedback intensity across all indicator elements.
🔶 Super Trend-Style Direction Logic
Utilizes classic Super Trend methodology adapted for SMA-MAD bands, where trend direction flips occur on opposite band violations with persistent state maintenance. The system tracks previous band levels with ratcheting behaviour that adjusts bands only when price movement or new calculations warrant changes, preventing oscillation during normal volatility.
🔶 ATR-Based Ribbon Visualization
Provides dynamic ribbon overlay using ATR-scaled width around the trend line with opacity modulation based on trend strength for intuitive conviction assessment. The system creates upper and lower ribbon bounds at configurable ATR multiples, filling the channel with gradient-adjusted transparency that increases during strong trends and fades during weak conditions.
🔶 Multi-Dimensional Visual Architecture
Provides complete chart integration through trend line overlay, ATR ribbon fills, candle colouring, background glow, and transition signal labels with configurable visibility toggles. The system enables traders to customize display density from minimal (trend line only) to comprehensive (all visual elements) while maintaining consistent colour scheme and strength-based intensity across components.
🔶 Slope Strength Validation
Calculates ATR-normalized slope over configurable lookback periods to measure trend line momentum and filter sideways price action. The system compares absolute slope against minimum threshold requirements, preventing trend signals when price movement relative to the trend line lacks sufficient directional conviction regardless of band position.
🔶 Signal Generation Framework
Generates trend change signals when filtered direction state transitions from bearish to bullish or vice versa, with label placement and alert integration. The system implements state persistence that maintains previous trend until both ADX and slope filters confirm directional change, reducing whipsaw signals while capturing genuine reversals with minimal lag.
🔶 Performance Optimization Framework
Utilizes efficient calculation methods with optimized variable management and configurable parameters for balance between responsiveness and stability. The system includes intelligent state tracking with NA handling for initial bars and smooth gradient calculations that maintain performance across extended historical periods and real-time updates.
This indicator delivers sophisticated trend identification through Mean Absolute Deviation methodology combined with dual-strength filtering for superior signal quality. Unlike traditional Super Trend indicators that rely solely on ATR bands, the SMA-MAD approach uses statistical deviation measurement while incorporating ADX strength and slope validation to eliminate false signals during choppy conditions. The system's gradient-based visual feedback, ATR ribbon visualization, comprehensive dashboard, and multi-dimensional filtering make it essential for traders seeking reliable trend-following approaches with clear conviction measurement across cryptocurrency, forex, and equity markets. The combination of adaptive bands, strength-based transparency, and intelligent filtering creates an institutional-grade trend system suitable for systematic trading strategies.

Golden Zone Structure [Kodexius]Golden Zone Structure is a ZigZag based market structure and Fibonacci tool designed to make swing context easier to read directly on the price chart. It detects meaningful pivot highs and lows, labels the evolving structure (HH, HL, LH, LL, including equal highs and lows), and automatically projects a Fibonacci map across the most recent completed swing.
Instead of forcing you to manually anchor Fib tools after every new leg, the script rebuilds levels each time a fresh pivot is confirmed. This makes it well suited for traders who focus on swing continuation, pullback depth, and reaction zones where liquidity and orderflow often concentrate.
A key emphasis is the Golden Zone highlight. The indicator shades the zone that is most relevant to the current swing context so you can quickly spot where a retracement is approaching a higher probability reaction area, without cluttering the chart with too many permanent objects.
The tool is intentionally visual and configurable. You can choose pivot source (High/Low or Close), adjust swing sensitivity via ZigZag period, switch color themes, and decide how much detail you want on screen (levels, zigzag lines, labels).
Optional trading markers can be enabled for users who want a lightweight “zone interaction” prompt. These markers are not intended as a standalone trading system. They are meant to complement your own confirmation rules (structure alignment, volume, higher timeframe bias, or price action triggers).
🔹Features
🔸 ZigZag Swing Engine
- Uses a configurable ZigZag period to filter noise and confirm swing points only when the lookback logic validates the move.
Supports different pivot sources (High/Low or Close) so you can choose between cleaner structure or more reactive behavior depending on the instrument.
Optional ZigZag leg drawing to visualize swing flow without clutter.
🔸 Market Structure Labels (HH, HL, LH, LL + Equals)
- Automatically labels each confirmed pivot based on how it compares to the prior pivot of the same type.
High side classification: H, HH, LH, EH.
Low side classification: L, HL, LL, EL.
Equal highs and lows help reveal potential liquidity pools and “magnet” areas where price often reacts or breaks with intent.
🔸 Auto Fibonacci Map on the Active Swing
- Rebuilds Fibonacci levels every time a new pivot is confirmed, keeping the projection aligned with the most recent completed leg.
Core retracement levels: 0.236, 0.382, 0.500, 0.618, 0.786.
Extension levels: 1.272 and 1.618 for expansion targeting and continuation mapping.
Optional price labels on each level, formatted to tick size so levels remain readable across markets.
🔸 Golden Zone Highlighting (Context Aware)
- Highlights the most relevant retracement band with a soft fill so you can spot “zone approach” moments at a glance.
The zone selection adapts to swing context, focusing on a different retracement region depending on whether the last confirmed pivot is a peak or a trough.
Adjustable transparency keeps the chart clean while preserving the key reaction area.
🔸 Visual Customization + Themes
- Multiple color themes (Neon, Ocean, Sunset, Monochrome) so the tool fits different chart styles and backgrounds.
Independent toggles for Fib levels, Golden Zone shading, ZigZag lines, and price labels.
Line width controls for better scaling across timeframes.
🔸 Optional Trading Markers + Alerts
- Optional BUY and SELL labels based on zone interaction logic with candle confirmation filters.
ATR based placement offset scaled by sensitivity so labels stay visually separated during volatility.
Built in alert conditions for new pivot highs and new pivot lows so you can monitor structure changes without watching every bar.
▶ Practical Usage Tip
• Use structure labels to define bias (HH + HL for bullish structure, LH + LL for bearish structure).
• Use the Golden Zone as a location filter, then wait for your own trigger (break of minor structure, rejection candle, volume shift, etc.).
• Treat extensions as “map points” not guaranteed targets. They work best when structure supports continuation.
Kira Buy Sell EMA & VWAP Trend IndicatorThis indicator provides buy and sell signals based on short-term
momentum shifts while aligning trades with the broader market
trend.
Core logic:
• Fast and slow EMAs are used to identify short-term momentum
changes
• VWAP is applied to confirm price acceptance in the trade
direction
• A higher-period EMA is used as a trend filter to reduce
counter-trend signals
Buy signals are generated when bullish momentum aligns with
VWAP positioning and the prevailing trend. Sell signals are
generated when bearish momentum aligns with VWAP and the
broader trend direction.
This approach keeps the logic simple and responsive while
helping to avoid signals during unfavorable market conditions.
Best suited for liquid stocks and indices on intraday
timeframes such as 5-minute to 1-hour charts.
This script does not repaint and is intended as a
decision-support indicator, not a standalone trading system.

QuantFlow Algo: Institutional Trap & ReversalRetail traders often lose money because they chase "breakouts" that are actually Liquidity Traps set by institutional algorithms. This script is designed to solve that problem.
Unlike standard indicators that clutter your chart with lagging moving averages and noisy clouds, the QuantFlow Algo: Institutional Trap & Reversal runs a high-performance Background Algorithm to detect "Smart Money" activity. It keeps your chart 100% clean and only prints a signal when a high-probability reversal structure is confirmed.
How it Works (The Logic):
The script utilizes a proprietary "Dual-Stage Verification" process to filter out false signals:
1. Liquidity Absorption: It detects specific candle geometries (Shadow-Excursion Ratios) where price aggressively breaks a level but fails to sustain momentum, trapping breakout traders.
2. Volumetric Pressure: It validates these traps using a relative volume anomaly detector to ensure institutions are active in the move.
3. Structural Delta: It analyzes the net order-flow bias of the session (Displacement) to ensure the reversal aligns with the immediate market structure.
Key Premium Features:
🛡️ Institutional Trap Detection Engine:
Automatically identifies high-probability "Smart Money" traps where retail traders get caught. Uses a proprietary Volumetric Pressure Algorithm to detect true liquidity grabs.
★ Sniper Confirmation Mode:
Filters out fake signals by waiting for a "Test Candle." The Gold Star (★) appears only when the market successfully retests the level on low volatility, giving you a precise, lower-risk entry.
❌ Auto-Failure Detection:
Stop guessing if a trade is dead. The script automatically marks invalidated setups with a discrete "X" , saving you from holding onto losing trades.
📊 Institutional Flow Verification:
A smart filter that validates signals using real Capital Injection & Order Flow . Includes a "Zero-Flow Mode" for indices like SPX/NDX, ensuring universal compatibility.
🖥️ Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Context Panel:
A built-in "Heads-Up Display" that monitors the 15m, 1H, 4H, and Daily trends simultaneously. It physically blocks counter-trend signals to keep you aligned with the higher timeframe flow.
🧠 Smart Adaptive Baseline (KAMA):
Uses Kaufman’s Adaptive Moving Average to react faster to market crashes than standard lagging indicators, protecting you from "catching a falling knife" during high volatility.
⚡ Two-Stage Signal System:
Stage 1 (Triangle ⚡): Alert Phase – The Trap is detected. Get ready.
Stage 2 (Star ★): Execution Phase – The Setup is confirmed. Enter the trade.
How to Use (Strategy):
This tool is designed as a "Setup Locator" with a built-in failure protocol. We recommend the 2-Phase Verification Method :
1. Wait for the Signal: Look for a Blue ⚡ (Buy Setup) or Orange ⚡ (Sell Setup).
Do not enter yet. This is the "Alert" phase.
2. Automatic Validation: The script scans for the next candle to close with Diminished Volumetric Pressure (Receding Order Flow). When this specific "test" condition occurs, a Gold Star (★) will appear.
3. Execution Protocols:
For a BUY Signal (Blue ⚡):
a. Standard Entry (The Star ★): If the Gold Star appears, wait for price to break the HIGH of that Star Candle. The trap is confirmed. Enter Long .
b. Failure Flip (The "X"): If a Grey "X" appears instead, the Buy Trap has failed. The institutions have let the support break. Go Short immediately (Reversal Trade).
For a SELL Signal (Orange ⚡):
a. Standard Entry (The Star ★): If the Gold Star appears, wait for price to break the LOW of that Star Candle. The trap is confirmed. Enter Short .
b. Failure Flip (The "X"): If a Grey "X" appears instead, the Sell Trap has failed. The institutions have let resistance break. Go Long immediately (Reversal Trade).
Why use the Failure Flip? A failed institutional trap often results in an explosive move in the opposite direction as trapped traders are forced to cover their positions.
4. Stop Loss: Place just above/below the Star Candle or the recent swing high/low.
Why is this Closed-Source?
This script operates on proprietary algorithms for Institutional Order Flow and Adaptive Smoothing . These internal calculations protect the unique logic used to validate setups and ensure a quantitative edge that standard open-source indicators cannot replicate.
