Chop + MSS/FVG Retest (Ace v1.6) – IndicatorWhat this indicator does
Name: Chop + MSS/FVG Retest (Ace v1.6) – Indicator
This is an entry model helper, not just a BOS/MSS marker.
It looks for clean trend-side setups by combining:
MSS (Market Structure Shift) using swing highs/lows
3-bar ICT Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
First retest back into the FVG
A built-in chop / trend filter based on ATR and a moving average
When everything lines up, it plots:
L below the candle = Long candidate
S above the candle = Short candidate
You pair this with a higher-timeframe filter (like the Chop Meter 1H/30M/15M) to avoid pressing the button in garbage environments.
How it works (simple explanation)
Chop / Trend filter
Computes ATR and compares each bar’s range to ATR.
If the bar is small vs ATR → more likely CHOP.
If the bar is big vs ATR → more likely TREND.
Uses a moving average:
Above MA + TREND → trendLong zone
Below MA + TREND → trendShort zone
MSS (Market Structure Shift)
Uses swing highs/lows (left/right bars) to track the last significant high/low.
Bullish MSS: close breaks above last swing high with displacement.
Bearish MSS: close breaks below last swing low with displacement.
Those events are marked as tiny triangles (MSS up/down).
A MSS only stays “valid” for a certain number of bars (Bars after MSS allowed).
3-bar ICT FVG
Bullish FVG: low > high
→ gap between bar 3 high and bar 2 low.
Bearish FVG: high < low
→ gap between bar 3 low and bar 2 high.
The indicator stores the FVG boundaries (top/bottom).
Retest of FVG
Watches for price to trade back into that gap (first touch).
That retest is the “entry zone” after the MSS.
Final Long / Short condition
Long (L) prints when:
Recent bullish MSS
Bullish FVG has formed
Price retests the bullish FVG
Environment = trendLong (ATR + above MA)
Not CHOP
Short (S) prints when:
Recent bearish MSS
Bearish FVG has formed
Price retests the bearish FVG
Environment = trendShort (ATR + below MA)
Not CHOP
So the L/S markers are “model-approved entry candles”, not just any random BOS.
Inputs / Settings
Key inputs you’ll see:
ATR length (chop filter)
How many bars to use for ATR in the chop / trend filter.
Lower = more sensitive, twitchy
Higher = smoother, slower to change
Max chop ratio
If barRange / ATR is below this → treat as CHOP.
Min trend ratio
If barRange / ATR is above this → treat as TREND.
Hide MSS/BOS marks in CHOP?
ON = MSS triangles disappear when the bar is classified as CHOP
Keeps your chart cleaner in consolidation
Swing left / right bars
Controls how tight or wide the swing highs/lows are for MSS:
Smaller = more sensitive, more MSS points
Larger = fewer, more significant swings
Bars after MSS allowed
How many bars after a MSS the indicator will still allow FVG entries.
Small value (e.g. 10) = MSS must deliver quickly or it’s ignored.
Larger (e.g. 20) = MSS idea stays “in play” longer.
Visual RR (for info only)
Just for plotting relative risk-reward in your head.
This is not a strategy tester; it doesn’t manage positions.
What you see on the chart
Small green triangle up = Bullish MSS
Small red triangle down = Bearish MSS
“L” triangle below a bar = Long idea (MSS + FVG retest + trendLong + not chop)
“S” triangle above a bar = Short idea (MSS + FVG retest + trendShort + not chop)
Faint circle plots on price:
When the filter sees CHOP
When it sees Trend Long zone
When it sees Trend Short zone
You do not have to trade every L or S.
They’re there to show “this is where the model would have considered an entry.”
How to use it in your trading
1. Use it with a higher-timeframe filter
Best practice:
Use this with the Chop Meter 1H/30M/15M or some other HTF filter.
Only consider L/S when:
Chop Meter = TRADE / NORMAL, and
This indicator prints L or S in the right location (premium/discount, near OB/FVG, etc.)
If higher-timeframe says NO TRADE, you ignore all L/S.
2. Location > Signal
Treat L/S as confirmation, not the whole story.
For shorts (S):
Look for premium zones (previous highs, OBs, fair value ranges above mid).
Want purge / raid of liquidity + MSS down + bearish FVG retest → then S.
For longs (L):
Look for discount zones (previous lows, OBs/FVGs below mid).
Want stop raid / purge low + MSS up + bullish FVG retest → then L.
If you see L/S firing in the middle of a bigger range, that’s where you skip and let it go.
3. Instrument presets (example)
You can tune the ATR/chop settings per instrument:
MNQ (noisy, 1m chart):
ATR length: 21
Max chop ratio: 0.90
Min trend ratio: 1.40
Bars after MSS allowed: 10
GOLD (cleaner, 3m chart):
ATR length: 14
Max chop ratio: 0.80
Min trend ratio: 1.30
Bars after MSS allowed: 20
You can save those as presets in the TV settings for quick switching.
4. How to practice with it
Open replay on a couple of days.
Check Chop Meter → if NO TRADE, just observe.
When Chop Meter says TRADE:
Mark where L/S printed.
Ask:
Was this in premium/discount?
Was there SMT / purge on HTF?
Did the move actually deliver, or did it die?
Screenshot the A+ L/S and the ugly ones; refine:
ATR length
Chop / trend thresholds
MSS lookback
Your goal is to get it to where:
The L/S marks show up mostly in the same places your eye already likes,
and you ignore the rest.
Chop Meter + Trade Filter 1H/30M/15M (Ace PROFILE CLEAN v2)What this indicator does
Name: Chop Meter + Trade Filter 1H/30M/15M (Ace PROFILE CLEAN v2)
This is not an entry signal indicator. It’s a market condition filter:
It checks how compressed or expanded price is on
1H, 30M, and 15M.
It labels each TF as CHOP or NORMAL.
If 2 or more of those are in CHOP, it prints NO TRADE.
If 0 or 1 are in CHOP, it prints TRADE.
You use it to answer one question:
“Is this a session I should be pushing the button,
or is this a day to sit on my hands?”
How it works (simple version)
For each timeframe (1H, 30M, 15M), the script:
Looks back N bars (ATR length).
Measures:
ATR over N bars
Price range over N bars (highest high − lowest low)
Computes a compression value:
compression = ATR / range.
Then it compares that to the Threshold:
If compression > threshold → CHOP (market boxed / compressed)
If compression ≤ threshold → NORMAL (market expanded / trending)
Finally:
It counts how many TFs are CHOP.
If 2 or 3 TFs are CHOP → NO TRADE.
If 0 or 1 TFs are CHOP → TRADE.
Inputs / Profiles
At the top you see:
Profile
Overnight 4/0.40 – for Asia / London / overnight sessions
NYO 5/0.45 – for New York Open profile (default)
Custom – lets you type your own values
When Custom is selected, you can set:
ATR Length (Custom) – how many bars to use in the compression calc
Chop Threshold (ATR ÷ Range) (Custom) – where you cut between CHOP vs NORMAL
Higher threshold → more bars counted as NORMAL, less CHOP
Lower threshold → more bars counted as CHOP, fewer TRADE environments
For NYO, you normally keep:
Profile = NYO 5/0.45
(ATR over 5 bars, threshold 0.45)
What you see on the chart
A single line panel at the bottom-right, like:
1H: NORMAL | 30M: CHOP | 15M: NORMAL | TRADE | NYO 5/0.45
Meaning:
1H: NORMAL → the last 1H window is expanded enough (not boxed).
30M: CHOP → 30M is compressed (inside a tighter range).
15M: NORMAL → 15M has opened up.
TRADE → Only 1 TF is CHOP, so the majority says OK to trade.
NYO 5/0.45 → just a tag to remind which profile you’re using.
If instead you see:
1H: CHOP | 30M: CHOP | 15M: NORMAL | NO TRADE | NYO 5/0.45
That means:
1H and 30M are boxed
15M opened a bit, but 2 TFs are CHOP
Final verdict: NO TRADE environment
How to use it in your trading
1. As a gatekeeper before any entry model
No matter what entry you use (MSS + FVG, OB, purge setups, etc.):
If the panel says NO TRADE →
You do not open new positions.
You’re in “observe only” mode.
You can still study price, mark levels, and journal, but you’re not pressing the button.
If the panel says TRADE →
The environment is acceptable.
Now you can look for your entry model (e.g. MSS + FVG retest, SMT, OB, etc.).
Think of it as your first filter every session:
“Panel says NO TRADE? I don’t care how good the candle looks – I’m waiting.”
2. Reading each timeframe
1H: CHOP → Day is still boxed on the higher frame; big expansion hasn’t kicked in.
30M: CHOP → Classic 30M dealing range; many fake breaks and wicks likely.
15M: CHOP → Intraday still coiling; scalping environment at best.
When 2 or 3 say CHOP, expect:
Whipsaw
MSS both ways
Failed FVGs
News spikes that die in the box
Perfect time to protect your psychology and capital.
When 2 or 3 say NORMAL, expect:
Cleaner swings
Better follow-through after MSS / FVG
Easier to hold for targets
3. How it pairs with your MSS/FVG indicator
With your Chop + MSS/FVG Retest indicator:
Chop meter = environment filter
MSS/FVG indicator = entry trigger
Your process becomes:
Check chop meter:
If NO TRADE → hands off.
If TRADE → go to step 2.
On your chart, wait for:
Purge / SMT at the edges
MSS in the right direction
FVG + retest
Only take L/S when both:
Chop meter = TRADE, and
Entry model = L/S signal in the right area (premium/discount).
That way, you’re not just trading every L/S the MSS script spits out—you’re trading L/S only when the higher-timeframe environment is worth it.
Super momentum DBSISuper momentum DBSI: The Ultimate Guide
1. What is this Indicator?
The Super momentum DBSI is a "Consensus Engine." Instead of relying on a single line (like an RSI) to tell you where the market is going, this tool calculates 33 distinct technical indicators simultaneously for every single candle.
It treats the market like a democracy. It asks 33 mathematical "voters" (Momentum, Trend, Volume, Volatility) if they are Bullish or Bearish.
If 30 out of 33 say "Buy," the score is high (Yellow), and the trend is extremely strong.
If only 15 say "Buy," the score is low (Teal), and the trend is weak or choppy.
2. Visual Guide: How to Read the Numbers
The Scores
Top Number (Bears): Represents Selling Pressure.
Bottom Number (Bulls): Represents Buying Pressure.
The Colors (The Traffic Lights)
The colors are your primary signal. They tell you who is currently winning the war.
🟡 YELLOW (Dominance):
This indicates the Winning Side.
If the Bottom Number is Yellow, Bulls are in control.
If the Top Number is Yellow, Bears are in control.
🔴 RED (Weakness):
This appears on the Top. It means Bears are present but losing.
🔵 TEAL (Weakness):
This appears on the Bottom. It means Bulls are present but losing.
3. Trading Strategy
Scenario A: The "Strong Buy" (Long Entry)
The Setup: You are looking for a shift in momentum where Buyers overwhelm Sellers.
Watch the Bottom Number: Wait for it to turn Yellow.
Confirm Strength: Ensure the score is above 15 and rising (e.g., 12 → 18 → 22).
Check the Top: The Top Number should be Red and low (below 10).
Trigger: Enter on the candle close.
Scenario B: The "Strong Sell" (Short Entry)
The Setup: You are looking for Sellers to crush the Buyers.
Watch the Top Number: Wait for it to turn Yellow.
Confirm Strength: Ensure the score is above 15 and rising.
Check the Bottom: The Bottom Number should be Teal and low.
Trigger: Enter on the candle close.
Scenario C: The "No Trade Zone" (Choppy Market)
The Setup: The market is confused.
Visual: Top is Red, Bottom is Teal.
Meaning: NOBODY IS WINNING. There is no Yellow number.
Action: Do not trade. This usually happens during lunch hours, weekends, or right before big news. This filter alone will save you from many false breakouts.
4. What is Inside? (The 33 Indicators)
To give you confidence in the signals, here is exactly what the script is checking:
Group 1: Momentum (Oscillators)

25. Money Flow Index (MFI)
26. On Balance Volume (OBV)
27. Chaikin Money Flow (CMF)
28. VWAP (Intraday)
29. Elder Force Index
30. Ease of Movement
Group 5: Volatility
Detects if price is pushing the outer limits.
31. Bollinger Bands
32. Keltner Channels
33. Donchian Channels
5. Pro Tips for Success
Don't Catch Knives: If the Bear score (Top) is Yellow and 25+, do not try to buy the dip. Wait for the Yellow score to break.
Exit Early: If you are Long and the Yellow Bull score drops from 28 to 15 in one candle, TAKE PROFIT. The momentum has died.
Use Higher Timeframes: This indicator works best on 15m, 1H, and 4H charts. On the 1m chart, it may be too volatile.
Candle Patterns Ver.2When someone decided to start trading the first thing we learn is how to read and understand the candlesticks. This little "boxes" with sticks tell us how the market sentiment and they can be used to "predict" future moves. I put predict inside a quotation marks because I would say predict the market is almost an utopia and we all know the reason.
Anyway with a good understand in reading the candlesticks with other indicators(like momentum or even a MA) can give us some edge when analyzing an instrument.
Since we have a lot of candlesticks types I did some back test and figured out that for my strategy that three candlestick types works very well. I will briefly describe then.
Engulfing Bar
This type of candlestick shows us a potential reversal based on the previous bar.
A bullish Engulfing has the close higher than the open it works better if the previous one is a bearish bar(open higher than close) and it is at a Support level. The body of the Engulfing bar should "engulf" the full body of the previous bar. If all parameters(previous bearish bar at Support level after a downtrend move) this Engulfing will represents a reversal move. When I say reversal it could means a pullback reversal(if the past trend is downtrend) or if the previous downtrend is a pullback from a past uptrend. In any way the previous bearish followed by an bullish Engulfing in general leads for an upward move.
The same picture applies to a previous bullish bar followed by an bearish Engulfing bar that if appears at the Resistance level will lead to a downward move.
One thing that is worth to mention is in a downward(or upward) move we have a small bullish bar followed by a bullish Engulfing this situation may lead to a continuation, not reversal.
Pinbar Bar:
This is another candlestick type that represents possible reversal. The Pinbar candle show a small(or medium) size but the important part is the size of the stick. If the stick is the upper one and has the size of 2 times the size of the body, it is a bearish bars and it appears after an uptrend move it represents that the buyers are losing momentum so we can expect a reversal move. When this type of bar appears after a downward move, it is a bullish bars but the stick is the lower one and has the size of two times of the body it will represents a bullish reversal. In this picture this candle is called a "Hammer".
So based on that I develop an indicator that shows me these 2 bars types and makes easy to identify with the other indicator possible entries.
Please feel free for a constructive comments and hope it help any one whe trading. Candlestick are the fundamentals of Price action.
You all have a great trading new week.

BTC Risk Metric DCA Adapter (3Commas Webhook Strategy)Risk Metric DCA Adapter (3Commas Webhook Strategy) - WORK IN PROGRESS
This Pine Script strategy, originally inspired by the Risk Metric Indicator, is fundamentally engineered as an Adapter to interface with external trading bots like 3Commas via Webhooks. It calculates a dynamic market risk score and translates that score into specific dollar-cost averaging (DCA) entry levels and tiered profit-taking exits.
Key Features & Logic
Risk Metric Calculation (Credit to The Trading Parrot):
The strategy incorporates a complex, multi-timeframe Risk Metric calculation based on daily and weekly moving averages (SMA) and standard deviation (StDev). This metric aims to quantify the current market overextension or compression relative to long-term historical data. The resulting score dictates the level of conviction for a new trade.
Tiered DCA Entry Sizing:
The strategy defines three distinct Buy Levels (L1, L2, L3) corresponding to increasingly favorable (lower) Risk Metric scores.
L1 (Base): Risk is moderate, initiating the minimum defined trade amount.
L2 (Scaled): Risk is low, initiating L1 amount + L2 amount.
L3 (Aggressive): Risk is very low, initiating L1 + L2 + L3 amounts.
Tiered Profit-Taking Exits:
The strategy implements a staggered, partial profit-taking approach based on the Risk Metric rising:
Sell L1 & L2: Closes a percentage of the current position when the Risk Metric reaches defined high thresholds, locking in partial profits.
Sell L3 (Full Exit): Closes the remaining position when the Risk Metric reaches the highest defined threshold.
The Adapter Function (Webhook Integration)
This script is unique because it uses the Pine Script strategy() function to trigger Order Fills, which are necessary to access powerful placeholders in the TradingView alert system.
Trigger Type: The alert must be set to trigger on Any order fill.
Dynamic Webhook Data: Instead of using fixed alert() commands, the strategy generates dynamic labels (e.g., BUY_ENTRY_L3_USD_1000 or SELL_L1_PCT_25) using the strategy.entry and strategy.close commands.
Data Transfer: The alert message then uses the placeholder {{strategy.order.comment}} to pass these dynamic labels to the 3Commas bot, allowing the bot to execute the precise action (e.g., start_deal_with_volume_in_quote_currency or close_deal_at_market_percentage).

Etwas31 Precision zones and trendTitle: Etwas31 Precision zones and trend
Overview: Get a complete market overview at a single glance. This script combines a comprehensive trend/volatility dashboard with automated, high-precision supply and demand zones. It filters out noise and highlights key market structures to improve your trading accuracy.
Key Features:
1. 📊 Advanced MTF Dashboard (5m - 1W)
Trend Monitor: Uses EMA 20 & 50 alignment to accurately detect Bullish, Bearish, or Neutral (Choppy) markets. No more guessing the trend.
Volatility Scanner: Utilizing ATR logic, it signals whether the market is active (High ⚡) or dormant (Low 💤) for each timeframe.
2. 🎯 Precision Support & Resistance Zones
Real Structure: Unlike simple lines, zones are drawn based on candle wicks (High to Body / Low to Body) to reflect the actual "thickness" of market interest.
Visual Hierarchy:
Weak Zones (15m, 30m): Displayed as Hollow/Dashed boxes. Ideal for scalping or short-term targets.
Strong Zones (1H, 4H, 1D, 1W): Displayed as Solid/Filled boxes. These are key levels for reversals and major trend continuation.
Auto-Extension: Zones automatically extend to the current price action for easy tracking.
3. ⚙️ Customizable & Clean
Fully customizable colors and visibility settings.
Optimized to prevent chart clutter while providing maximum information.
How to Use:
Use the Dashboard to align your trades with the higher timeframe trend (e.g., trade with the 4H trend).
Wait for Volatility (⚡) to confirm momentum.
Enter trades when price reacts at Solid Zones (Strong S/R) or use Hollow Zones for intraday scalp targets.
Coinbase Premium Index (Custom Tickers)📊 Coinbase Premium Index (Auto Symbol Support)
1. Overview
The Coinbase Premium Index is a widely used indicator to gauge the sentiment difference between US institutional investors (Coinbase Pro) and global retail/futures traders (Binance).
This script calculates the percentage difference between the Coinbase (USD pair) price and the Binance (USDT pair) price.
2. Key Features
🔄 Auto Symbol Matching (New): You no longer need to manually change tickers when switching charts.
If you are looking at a SOL/USDT chart, the indicator automatically detects "SOL" and compares COINBASE:SOLUSD vs BINANCE:SOLUSDT.
🛠 Manual Mode: Includes a manual override option if you wish to compare specific fixed tickers (e.g., strictly BTC).
🎨 Dynamic Visuals:
Histogram: Color-coded bars (Green/Red) indicate positive or negative premiums.
Smart Label: Displays the real-time premium value on the chart. The label color adapts to the trend, and hovering over it shows a Tooltip confirming exactly which tickers are being compared.
3. How to Interpret
The premium indicates the flow of funds and buying pressure:
🟢 Positive Premium (Green Bar):
Coinbase Price > Binance Price
Interpretation: Strong buying pressure from US institutions or spot whales. Often considered a Bullish signal.
🔴 Negative Premium (Red Bar):
Coinbase Price < Binance Price
Interpretation: Strong selling from US investors, or overheated buying in the offshore futures market (Binance). Often considered a Bearish or mean-reversion signal.
4. Settings Guide
Ticker Mode:
Auto (Current Chart): Automatically sets the comparison based on your current chart's base currency (Recommended).
Manual (Custom): Uses the specific tickers defined in the manual input fields below.
Manual Inputs: Enter tickers here if using Manual Mode (Default: COINBASE:BTCUSD vs BINANCE:BTCUSDT).
Bar & Label Settings: Customize colors, transparency, and the vertical position (Y-Offset) of the data label to fit your chart layout.
Volume Z-Score// This indicator calculates the Z-Score of trading volume to identify
// statistically significant volume spikes. It uses a dynamic percentile-based
// threshold to highlight extreme volume events.
//
// How it works:
// - Z-Score measures how many standard deviations the current volume is from the mean
// - The threshold line represents the top 1% (99th percentile) of historical Z-Score values
// - When volume Z-Score exceeds the threshold, the line turns red
//
// Use cases:
// - Spot unusual institutional activity or large block trades
// - Identify potential breakout or breakdown points with volume confirmation
// - Filter out noise by focusing only on statistically extreme volume events
//
// Parameters:
// - Period Length: Lookback period for calculating mean and standard deviation
// - Percentile Threshold: Defines the extreme volume cutoff (default 99 = top 1%)
