Pivot Trend Flow [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
Pivot Trend Flow turns raw swing points into a clean, adaptive trend band. It averages recent pivot highs and lows to form two dynamic reference levels; when price crosses above the averaged highs, trend flips bullish and a green band is drawn; when it crosses below the averaged lows, trend flips bearish and a red band is drawn. During an uptrend the script highlights breakouts of previous pivot highs with ▲ labels, and during a downtrend it flags breakdowns of previous pivot lows with ▼ labels—making structure shifts and continuation signals obvious.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Pivot-Based Averages : Recent pivot highs/lows are collected and averaged to create smoothed upper/lower reference levels.
if not na(ph)
phArray.push(ph)
if not na(pl)
plArray.push(pl)
if phArray.size() > avgWindow
upper := phArray.avg()
phArray.shift()
if plArray.size() > avgWindow
lower := plArray.avg()
plArray.shift()
Trend State via Crosses : Close above the averaged-highs ⇒ bullish trend; close below the averaged-lows ⇒ bearish trend.
Trend Band : A colored band (green/red) is plotted and optionally filled to visualize the active regime around price.
Structure Triggers :
In bull mode the tool watches for prior pivot-high breakouts (▲).
In bear mode it watches for prior pivot-low breakdowns (▼).
🔵 FEATURES
Adaptive Trend Detection from averaged pivot highs/lows.
Clear Visuals : Green band in uptrends, red band in downtrends; optional fill for quick read.
Breakout/Breakdown Labels :
▲ marks breaks of previous pivot highs in uptrends
▼ marks breaks of previous pivot lows in downtrends
Minimal Clutter : Uses compact lines and labels that extend only on confirmation.
Customizable Colors & Fill for trend states and band styling.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Pivot Length : Sets how swing points are detected. Smaller = more reactive; larger = smoother.
Avg Window (pivots) : How many recent pivot highs/lows are averaged. Increase to stabilize the band; decrease for agility.
Read the Band :
Green band active ⇒ prioritize longs, pullback buys toward the band.
Red band active ⇒ prioritize shorts, pullback sells toward the band.
Trade the Triggers :
In bull mode, ▲ on a prior pivot-high break can confirm continuation.
In bear mode, ▼ on a prior pivot-low break can confirm continuation.
Combine with Context : Use HTF trend, S/R, or volume for confluence and to filter signals.
Fill Color Toggle : Enable/disable band fill to match your chart style.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Pivot Trend Flow converts swing structure into an actionable, low-lag trend framework. By blending averaged pivots with clean breakout/breakdown labels, it clarifies trend direction, timing, and continuation spots—ideal as a core bias tool or a confirmation layer in any trading system.
Điểm Pivot và cấp độ
LA - Opening Price based Previous day Range PivotThis "LA - Opening Price based Previous day Range Pivot" indicator is a custom technical analysis tool designed for Trading View charts. It plots support and resistance levels (often referred to as pivots or ranges) based on the current opening price combined with the previous period's trading range. The "previous period" can be daily, weekly, or monthly, making it a multi-timeframe tool. These levels are projected using Fibonacci-inspired multipliers to create potential breakout or reversal zones.
The core idea is inspired by concepts like the Opening Range Breakout (ORB) strategy or Fibonacci pivots, but it's customized here to use a dynamic range calculation (the maximum of several absolute price differences) rather than a simple high-low range. This makes it more robust for volatile markets. Levels are symmetric above (resistance) and below (support) the opening price, helping traders identify potential entry/exit points, stop-losses, or targets. This will be useful when there is a gap-up/down as in Nifty/Sensex .
Purpose of the Indicator:
To visualize potential support/resistance zones for the current trading session based on the opening price and historical range data. This helps traders anticipate price movements, such as breakouts above resistance or bounces off support
Use Cases:
Intraday Trading: On lower timeframes (e.g., 5-min or 15-min charts), it shows daily levels for short-term trades.
Swing Trading: On higher timeframes (e.g., hourly or daily), it displays weekly/monthly levels for longer holds.
Range Identification: The filled bands highlight "zones" where price might consolidate or reverse.
Conditional Display: Levels only appear on appropriate timeframes (e.g., daily levels on intraday charts <60min), preventing clutter.
Theoretical Basis: It builds on pivot point theory, where the opening price acts as a central pivot. Multipliers (e.g., 0.618 for Fibonacci golden ratio) project levels, assuming price often respects these ratios due to market psychology.
How Calculations Work
Let's dive into the math with examples. Assume a stock with:
Current daily open (cdo) = $100
Previous daily high (pdh) = $105, low (pdl) = $95, close (pdc) = $102, close 2 days ago (pdc2) = $98
Step 1: Dynamic Range Calculation (var_d2):
This is the max of:
|pdh - pdc2| = |105 - 98| = 7
|pdl - pdc2| = |95 - 98| = 3
|pdh - pdl| = |105 - 95| = 10 (previous day range)
|pdh - cdo| = |105 - 100| = 5
|pdl - cdo| = |95 - 100| = 5
|pdc - cdo| = |102 - 100| = 2
|pdc2 - cdo| = |98 - 100| = 2
Max = 10 (so range = 10). This ensures the range accounts for gaps and extended moves, not just high-low.
Step 2: Level Projections:
Resistance (above open): Open + (Range * Multiplier)
dre6 = 100 + (10 * 1.5) = 115
dre5 = 100 + (10 * 1.27) ≈ 112.7
... down to dre0 = 100 + (10 * 0.1) = 101
dre50 = 100 + (10 * 0.5) = 105 (midpoint)
Support (below open): Open - (Range * Multiplier)
dsu0 = 100 - (10 * 0.1) = 99
... up to dsu6 = 100 - (10 * 1.5) = 85

Pros and Cons
Pros:
Multi-Timeframe Flexibility: Seamlessly integrates daily, weekly, and monthly levels, useful for aligning short-term trades with longer trends (e.g., intraday breakout confirmed by weekly support).
Dynamic Range Calculation: Unlike standard pivots (just (H+L+C)/3), it uses max of multiple diffs, capturing gaps/volatility better—great for stocks with overnight moves.
Customizable via Inputs: Users can toggle levels, adjust multipliers, or change timeframes without editing code. Inline inputs keep the UI clean.
Visual Aids: Filled bands make zones obvious; conditional colors highlight "tight" vs. "wide" ranges (e.g., for volatility assessment).
Fibonacci Integration: Levels based on proven ratios, appealing to technical traders. Symmetric supports/resistances simplify strategy building (e.g., buy at support, sell at resistance).
No Repainting: Uses historical data with lookahead, so levels are fixed once calculated—reliable for back-testing.
Cons:
Chart Clutter: With all toggles on, 50+ plots/fills can overwhelm the chart, especially on mobile or small screens. Requires manual disabling.
Complexity for Beginners: Many inputs and calculations; without understanding fib ratios or range logic, it might confuse new users.
Performance Overhead: On low timeframes (e.g., 1-min), fetching higher TF data multiple times could lag, especially with many symbols or back-tests.
Assumes Volatility Persistence: Relies on previous range projecting future moves; in low-vol markets (e.g., sideways trends), levels may be irrelevant or too wide/narrow.
No Alerts or Signals: Purely visual; no built-in buy/sell alerts or crossover conditions—users must add separately.
Hardcoded Styles/Colors: Limited customization without code edits (e.g., can't change line styles via inputs).
Also, not optimized for non-stock assets (e.g., forex with 24/7 trading).
In summary, this is a versatile pivot tool for range-based trading based on Opening price, excelling in volatile markets but requiring some setup. If you're using it, start with defaults on a daily chart and toggle off unnecessary levels.

Pivot Points + VWAP + EMA200 + Fixed Range VP (POC)Indicator description — Pivot Points + VWAP + EMA200 + Fixed Range VP (POC)
Short summary
A composite TradingView indicator (Pine v6) that overlays classic pivot points, session/period VWAP with optional deviation bands, an EMA-200 trend filter, and a fixed-range volume profile with Value Area and Point Of Control (POC). Designed to give a single view of key horizontal levels (pivots, VWAP bands, POC) and trend context to speed intraday and swing trade decisions.
Key features
Multiple Pivot types & anchor periods — Traditional, Fibonacci, Woodie, Classic, DM, Camarilla; anchors from Auto/Daily up to multi-year. Option to calculate from daily values on intraday charts.
Pivot drawing & labels — Draws historical pivot levels with configurable colors, line width, label position (Left/Right) and how many pivot periods to keep. Automatically trims older pivot sets beyond the configured limit.
VWAP + deviation bands — VWAP anchored to Session / Week / Month / Quarter / Year (plus Earnings/Dividends/Splits). Optional bands by Standard Deviation or Percentage (up to 3 multipliers). Option to hide on daily/weekly/monthly (DWM) charts.
EMA-200 trend filter — Plotted as a clear orange line; use to identify major trend bias.
Fixed-range Volume Profile (VP) with POC — Builds a fixed lookback VP over bbars bars, shows up/down volume boxes, value area (percent configurable) and draws the POC line + optional POC label. VP is rendered as boxed histogram with configurable rows and colors.
Performance/robustness safeguards — Handles multi-timeframe pivots, provides clear runtime errors when intraday data is insufficient for requested pivot timeframe, and caps the number of drawn objects to avoid overrun.
Inputs & what they do (high level)
Pivot Settings
Type: pivot formula (Traditional, Fibonacci, etc.).
Pivots Timeframe: Auto / Daily / Weekly / Monthly / ... multi-year.
Number of Pivots Back: how many historical pivot periods to keep.
Use Daily-based Values: when enabled, pivots always use daily OHLC (useful on intraday charts).
Show Labels / Show Prices / Labels Position / Line Width — visual tweaks for pivot lines and labels.
Pivot Levels / Colors — Toggle visibility and color for P, R1..R5, S1..S5 (levels shown depend on pivot type).
VWAP Settings
Hide VWAP on 1D or Above: hides VWAP on daily+ charts.
Anchor Period: Session / Week / Month / Quarter / Year / Decade / Century / Earnings / Dividends / Splits.
VWAP Source (default hlc3) and Offset.
Bands Settings
Bands Mode: Standard Deviation or Percentage.
Multipliers: up to three bands (1×, 2×, 3× by default); toggle visible bands.
Volume Profile (VP)
VP Lookback Bars (bbars): number of bars included in fixed range.
VP Rows (cnum): vertical resolution (number of price bins).
Value Area %: e.g., 70%.
POC Color / Width, Up/Down colors and Show POC Label.
How to use it (practical tips)
Trend filter: use EMA-200 — price above EMA200 = bullish bias, below = bearish bias.
VWAP confluence: intraday trades near VWAP or VWAP bands often have higher confluence. Use the selected anchor (Session for intraday, Week/Month for swing).
Pivot levels for targets & S/Ls: pivot levels (P, R1/R2, S1/S2…) make quick, rule-based targets and stops. Combine pivot + VWAP/POC for stronger S/R.
Volume Profile & POC: POC = single price with highest traded volume in the range — acts as a magnet/support/resistance. Use value area (VA) boundaries to spot acceptance/rejection.
Multi timeframe: choose pivot anchor appropriate to your horizon (Session/Daily for intraday scalps; Weekly/Monthly for swing). If you lack intraday history, enable “Use Daily-based Values” to avoid pivot errors.
Performance note: the fixed-range VP is calculated only on the last bar (barstate.islast) and draws boxes/POC accordingly — the VP will represent the configured lookback ending at the latest bar.
Limitations & gotchas
Intraday pivot calculation needs sufficient history. If you request intraday pivots but the chart lacks enough bars, the script throws a runtime error with guidance.
VP is built only on the last bar (to keep resource usage reasonable). That means the VP boxes and POC are recalculated for the latest lookback window; historical VP boxes are removed each update.
Object count: indicator creates many graphical objects (lines, labels, boxes). The script includes caps and cleanup, but very long backtests or extremely small pivot intervals may still use many objects — adjust “Number of Pivots Back” and VP lookback to manage.
Repainting considerations: pivots use request.security(..., lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on) for daily-based option and time synchronization; be mindful when using historical bar-by-bar automation or backtesting — visual levels are intended for analysis and manual decision-making rather than automated entry triggers without further validation.
Compatibility & installation
Pine Script version: v6. Use on TradingView.
Add to chart: Copy the whole script into TradingView’s Pine editor, save and add to chart. Ensure sufficient chart history for selected pivot/VP settings.
Suggested default workflow (example)
Set Pivot Anchor = Session, Type = Traditional, Use Daily-based Values = off for true intraday pivots.
VWAP Anchor = Session, show Band #1 at 1× for quick mean-reversion zones.
EMA-200 visible (default) to filter trade direction.
VP Lookback Bars ~ 150, Value Area 70% to see a 150-bar market profile and POC.
Trade entries: look for price reaction (rejection / engulfing / volume spike) at pivot/R1/VWAP/POC aligned with EMA-200 trend.
Short blurb (for scripts list / marketplace)
Pivot Points + VWAP + EMA200 + Fixed Range VP (POC) — a compact, all-in-one overlay that combines classic pivot levels, session-anchored VWAP with deviation bands, a 200-period EMA trend filter, and a fixed-range volume profile with Value Area and POC. Built for intraday and swing traders who want consolidated horizontal structure and volume context on one chart.
Opening Range BoxThis indicator, called the "Opening Range Box," is a visual tool that helps you track the start of key trading sessions like London and New York (or whatever session you set).
It does three main things:
Finds the Daily 'First Move': It automatically calculates the High and Low reached during the first 30 minutes (or whatever time you set) of each defined session.
Draws a Box: It immediately draws a colored, transparent box on your chart from the moment the session starts. The top of the box is the OR High, and the bottom is the OR Low. This box acts as a clear reference for the session's initial boundaries.
Extends the Levels: After the initial 30 minutes are over, the box stops growing vertically (it locks in the OR High/Low) but continues to stretch out horizontally for the rest of the trading session. This allows you to easily see how the price reacts to the opening levels throughout the day.
In short: It visually highlights the most important price levels established at the very beginning of the major market sessions.
Contrarian Period High & LowContrarian Period High & Low
This indicator pairs nicely with the Contrarian 100 MA and can be located here:
Overview
The "Contrarian Period High & Low" indicator is a powerful technical analysis tool designed for traders seeking to identify key support and resistance levels and capitalize on contrarian trading opportunities. By tracking the highest highs and lowest lows over user-defined periods (Daily, Weekly, or Monthly), this indicator plots historical levels and generates buy and sell signals when price breaks these levels in a contrarian manner. A unique blue dot counter and action table enhance decision-making, making it ideal for swing traders, trend followers, and those trading forex, stocks, or cryptocurrencies. Optimized for daily charts, it can be adapted to other timeframes with proper testing.
How It Works
The indicator identifies the highest high and lowest low within a specified period (e.g., daily, weekly, or monthly) and draws horizontal lines for the previous period’s extremes on the chart. These levels act as dynamic support and resistance zones. Contrarian signals are generated when the price crosses below the previous period’s low (buy signal) or above the previous period’s high (sell signal), indicating potential reversals. A blue dot counter tracks consecutive buy signals, and a table displays the count and recommended action, helping traders decide whether to hold or flip positions.
Key Components
Period High/Low Levels: Tracks the highest high and lowest low for each period, plotting red lines for highs and green lines for lows from the bar where they occurred, extending for a user-defined length (default: 200 bars).
Contrarian Signals: Generates buy signals (blue circles) when price crosses below the previous period’s low and sell signals (white circles) when price crosses above the previous period’s high, designed to capture potential reversals.
Blue Dot Tracker: Counts consecutive buy signals (“blue dots”). If three or more occur, it suggests a stronger trend, with the table recommending whether to “Hold Investment” or “Flip Investment.”
Action Table: A 2x2 table in the bottom-right corner displays the blue dot count and action (“Hold Investment” if count ≥ 4, else “Flip Investment”) for quick reference.
Mathematical Concepts
Period Detection: Uses an approximate bar count to define periods (1 bar for Daily, 5 bars for Weekly, 20 bars for Monthly on a daily chart). When a new period starts, the previous period’s high/low is finalized and plotted.
High/Low Tracking:
Highest high (periodHigh) and lowest low (periodLow) are updated within the period.
Lines are drawn at these levels when the period ends, starting from the bar where the extreme occurred (periodHighBar, periodLowBar).
Signal Logic:
Buy signal: ta.crossunder(close , prevPeriodLow) and not lowBroken and barstate.isconfirmed
Sell signal: ta.crossover(close , prevPeriodHigh) and not highBroken and barstate.isconfirmed
Flags (highBroken, lowBroken) prevent multiple signals for the same level within a period.
Blue Dot Counter: Increments on each buy signal, resets on a sell signal or if price exceeds the entry price after three or more buy signals.
Entry and Exit Rules
Buy Signal (Blue Circle): Triggered when the price crosses below the previous period’s low, suggesting a potential oversold condition and buying opportunity. The signal appears as a blue circle below the price bar.
Sell Signal (White Circle): Triggered when the price crosses above the previous period’s high, indicating a potential overbought condition and selling opportunity. The signal appears as a white circle above the price bar.
Blue Dot Tracker:
Increments blueDotCount on each buy signal and sets an entryPrice on the first buy.
Resets on a sell signal or if price exceeds entryPrice after three or more buy signals.
If blueDotCount >= 3, the table suggests holding; if >= 4, it reinforces “Hold Investment.”
Exit Rules: Exit a buy position on a sell signal or when price exceeds the entry price after three or more buy signals. Combine with other tools (e.g., trendlines, support/resistance) for additional confirmation. Always apply proper risk management.
Recommended Usage
The "Contrarian Period High & Low" indicator is optimized for daily charts but can be adapted to other timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H) with adjustments to the period bar count. It excels in markets with clear support/resistance levels and potential reversal zones. Traders should:
Backtest the indicator on their chosen asset and timeframe to validate signal reliability.
Combine with other technical tools (e.g., moving averages, Fibonacci levels) for stronger trade confirmation.
Adjust barsPerPeriod (e.g., ~120 bars for Weekly on hourly charts) based on the chart timeframe and market volatility.
Monitor the action table to guide position management based on blue dot counts.
Customization Options
Period Type: Choose between Daily, Weekly, or Monthly periods (default: Monthly).
Line Length: Set the length of high/low lines in bars (default: 200).
Show Highs/Lows: Toggle visibility of period high (red) and low (green) lines.
Max Lines to Keep: Limit the number of historical lines displayed (default: 10).
Hide Signals: Toggle buy/sell signal visibility for a cleaner chart.
Table Display: A fixed table in the bottom-right corner shows the blue dot count and action, with yellow (Hold) or green (Flip) backgrounds based on the count.
Why Use This Indicator?
The "Contrarian Period High & Low" indicator offers a unique blend of support/resistance visualization and contrarian signal generation, making it a versatile tool for identifying potential reversals. Its clear visual cues (lines and signals), blue dot tracker, and actionable table provide traders with an intuitive way to monitor market structure and manage trades. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced trader, this indicator enhances your ability to spot key levels and time entries/exits effectively.
Tips for Users
Test the indicator thoroughly on your chosen market and timeframe to optimize settings (e.g., adjust barsPerPeriod for non-daily charts).
Use in conjunction with price action or other indicators for stronger trade setups.
Monitor the action table to decide whether to hold or flip positions based on blue dot counts.
Ensure your chart timeframe aligns with the selected period type (e.g., daily chart for Monthly periods).
Apply strict risk management to protect against false breakouts.

Z-Score Trend Channels [BackQuant]Z-Score Trend Channels
A self-contained price-statistics framework that turns a rolling z-score into price channels, bias states, and trade markers. Run either trend-following or mean-reversion from the same tool with clear, on-chart context.
What it is
A rolling statistical map that measures how far price is from its recent average in standard-deviation units (z-score).
Adaptive channels drawn in price space from fixed z thresholds, so the rails breathe with volatility.
A simple trend proxy from z-score momentum to separate trending from ranging conditions.
On-chart signals for pullback entries, stretched extremes, and practical exits.
Core idea (plain English math)
Rolling mean and volatility - Over a lookback you get the average price and its standard deviation.
Z-score - How many standard deviations the current price is above or below its average: z = (price - mean) / stdev. z near 0 means near average; positive is above; negative is below.
Noise control - An EMA smooths the raw z to reduce jitter and false flickers.
Channels back in price - Fixed z levels are converted back to price to form the upper, lower, and extreme rails.
Trend proxy - A smoothed change in z is used as a lightweight trend-strength line. Positive strength with positive z favors uptrend; negative strength with negative z favors downtrend.
What you see on the chart
Channels and fills - Mean, upper, lower, and optional extreme lines. The area mean->upper tints with the bearish color, mean->lower tints with the bullish color.
Background tint (optional) - Soft green, red, or neutral based on detected trend state.
Signals - Bullish Entry (triangle up) when z exits the oversold zone upward; Bearish Entry (triangle down) when z exits the overbought zone downward; Extreme markers (diamonds) at the extreme bands with a one-bar turn.
Table - Current z, trend state, trend strength, distance to bands, market state tag, and a quick volatility regime label.
Edge labels - MEAN, OB, and OS labels slightly projected forward with level values.
Inputs you will actually use
Z-Score Period - Lookback for mean and stdev. Larger = slower and steadier rails, smaller = more reactive.
Smoothing Period - EMA on z. Lower = earlier but choppier flips; higher = later but cleaner.
Price Source - Default hlc3. Choose close if you prefer session-close logic.
Upper and Lower Thresholds - Default around +2.0 and -2.0. Tighten for more signals, widen for fewer and stronger.
Extreme Upper and Lower - Deeper stretch guards, e.g., +/- 2.5.
Strength Period - EMA on z momentum. Sets how fast the trend proxy flips.
Trend Threshold - Minimum absolute z to accept a directional bias.
Visual toggles - Channels, signals, background tint, stats table, colors, and optional last-bar trend label.
How to use it: trend-following playbook
Read the state - Uptrend when z > Trend Threshold and trend strength > 0. Downtrend when z < -Trend Threshold and trend strength < 0. Neutral otherwise.
Entries - In an uptrend, prefer Bullish Entry signals that fire near the lower channel. In a downtrend, prefer Bearish Entry signals that fire near the upper channel.
Stops - Conservative: beyond the extreme channel on your side. Tighter: just outside the standard band that framed the signal.
Exits - For longs, exit or trim on a cross back through z = 0 or a clean tag of the upper threshold. For shorts, mirror with z = 0 up-cross or tag of the lower threshold. You can also reduce if trend strength flips against you.
Adds - In strong trends, additional signals near your side’s band can be add points. Avoid adding once z hovers near the opposite band for several bars.
How to use it: mean-reversion playbook
Find stretch - Standard reversions: Bullish Entry when z leaves the oversold zone upward; Bearish Entry when z leaves the overbought zone downward. Aggressive reversions: Extreme markers at extreme bands with a one-bar turn.
Entries - Take the signal as price exits the zone. Prefer setups where trend strength is near zero or tilting against the prior push.
Targets - First target is the mean line. A runner can aim for the opposite standard channel if momentum keeps flipping.
Stops - Outside the extreme band beyond your entry. If fading without extremes, place risk just beyond the opposite standard band.
Filters - Optional: skip counter-trend fades against a very strong trend state unless your risk is tight and predefined.
Reading the stats table
Current Z-Score - Magnitude and sign of displacement now.
Trend State - Uptrend, Downtrend, or Ranging.
Trend Strength - Smoothed z momentum. Higher absolute values imply stronger directional conviction.
Distance to Upper/Lower - Percent distance from price to each band, useful for sizing targets or judging room left.
Market State - Overbought, Oversold, Extreme OB, Extreme OS, or Normal.
Volatility Regime - High, Normal, or Low relative to recent distribution. Expect bands to widen in High and tighten in Low.
Parameter guidance (conceptual)
Z-Score Period - Choose longer for a structural mean, shorter for a reactive mean.
Smoothing Period - Lower for earlier but noisier reads; higher for slower but steadier reads.
Thresholds - Start around +/- 2.0. Tighten for scalping or quiet ranges. Widen for noisy or fast markets.
Trend Threshold and Strength Period - Raise to avoid weak, transient bias. Lower to capture earlier regime shifts.
Practical examples
Trend pullback long - State shows Uptrend. Price tests the lower channel; z dips near or below the lower threshold; a Bullish Entry prints. Stop just below extreme lower; first target mean; keep a runner if trend strength stays positive.
Mean-revert short - State is Ranging. z tags the extreme upper, an Extreme Bearish marker prints, then a Bearish Entry prints on the leave. Stop above extreme upper; target the mean; consider a runner toward the lower channel if strength turns negative.
Potential Questions you might have
Why z-score instead of fixed offsets - Because the bands adapt with volatility. When the tape gets quiet the rails tighten, when it runs hot the rails expand. Your entries stay normalized.
Do I need both modes - No. Many users run only trend pullbacks or only mean-reversions. The tool lets you toggle what you need and keep the chart readable.
Multi-timeframe workflow - A common approach is to set bias from a higher timeframe’s trend state and execute on a lower timeframe’s signals that align with it.
Summary
Z-Score Trend Channels gives you an adaptive mean, volatility-aware rails, a simple trend lens, and clear signals. Trade the trend by buying pullbacks in green and selling pullbacks in red, or fade stretched extremes back to the mean with defined risk. One framework, two strategies, consistent logic.
Opening Range TraderThis indicator, "Opening Range Trader," provides visual tools for defining and tracking two customizable intraday ranges plus today’s open, high, and low. It is designed for day traders to identify support, resistance, and breakout opportunities by automatically marking key price levels that often shape the day's momentum.
It offers:
Customizable start and end times for two independent time ranges.
Toggle options to display lines for the selected ranges and for today’s open, high, and low.
Automatic adaptation for New York market hours.
Real-time updates for session highs/lows and today’s evolving levels.
Traders use this to watch for breakouts above or below the opening range (ORB strategy), to fade false moves when price returns inside the range, or to participate in trending moves after volatility begins. A common setup is entering long on closes above the range high, or short on closes below the range low, with stops and targets based on the range’s width or the opposite boundary.
Risk management approaches include placing stop losses at the midpoint or at the opposite end of the range, and adjusting targets for measured moves. Volume confirmation can help filter valid breakouts, while adapting times for specific assets and trading styles maximizes flexibility.
The second range allows traders to repeat similar strategies later in the session for evolving momentum windows, making this indicator useful for multiple intraday setups.
Inversion Fair Value Gap Signals [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
This script is a custom signal tool called Inversion Fair Value Gap Signals (IFVG) , designed to detect, track, and visualize fair value gaps (FVGs) and their inversions directly on price charts. It identifies bullish and bearish imbalances, monitors when these zones are mitigated or rejected, and extends them until resolution or expiration. What makes this script original is the inclusion of inversion logic—when a gap is filled, the area flips into an opposite "inversion fair value gap," creating potential reversal or continuation zones that give traders additional context beyond classic FVG analysis.
🟠 CONCEPTS
The script builds on the Smart Money Concepts (SMC) principle of fair value gaps, where inefficiencies form when price moves too quickly in one direction. Detection requires a three-bar sequence: a strong up or down move that leaves untraded price between bar highs and lows. To refine reliability, the script adds an ATR-based size filter and prevents overlap between zones. Once created, gaps are tracked in arrays until mitigation (price closing back into the gap), expiration, or transformation into an inversion zone. Inversions act as polarity flips, where bullish gaps become bearish resistance and bearish gaps become bullish support. Lower-timeframe volume data is also displayed inside zones to highlight whether buying or selling pressure dominated during gap creation.
🟠 FEATURES
Automatic detection of bullish and bearish FVGs with ATR-based thresholding.
Inversion logic: mitigated gaps flip into opposite-colored IFVG zones.
Volume text overlay inside each zone showing up vs down volume.
Visual markers (△/▽ for FVG, ▲/▼ for IFVG) when price exits a zone without mitigation.
🟠 USAGE
Apply the indicator to any chart and enable/disable bullish or bearish FVG detection depending on your focus. Use the colored gap zones as areas of interest: bullish gaps suggest possible continuation to the upside until mitigated, while bearish gaps suggest continuation down. When a gap flips into an inversion zone, treat it as potential support/resistance—bullish IFVGs below price may act as demand, while bearish IFVGs above price may act as supply. Watch the embedded up/down volume data to gauge the strength of participants during gap formation. Use the △/▽ and ▲/▼ markers to spot when price rejects gaps or inversions without filling them, which can indicate strong trending momentum. For practical use, combine alerts with your trade plan to track when new gaps form, when old ones are resolved, or when key zones flip into inversions, helping you align entries, targets, or reversals with institutional order flow logic.
Session High Low TrackerTracks the Asia, London, NY AM and NY PM swing highs and lows. What's different here is when a level is broken, it can continue to draw a dotted line so the levels stay on the chart until
end of day. Also has shading options for each session.
Previous Day Close LinesWhat does the script do?
--Draws a line on the current session from previous day close.
--Leaves previous day close lines behind, notice the reaction around them.
Average Daily Range Zones + QuartilesAdded quartile lines to the ADR Zones indicator. The quartile lines only show up on the current session.
Anchored EMA/VWAP### Anchored EMA/VWAP Indicator
**Description:**
The **Anchored EMA/VWAP Indicator** is a powerful and versatile tool designed for traders seeking to analyze price trends and momentum from a user-defined anchor point in time. Built for TradingView using Pine Script v6, this indicator calculates and displays multiple **Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)**, **Volume-Weighted Exponential Moving Averages (VWEMAs)**, and a **Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP)**, all anchored to a specific date and time chosen by the user. By anchoring these calculations, traders can focus on price action relative to significant market events, such as news releases, earnings reports, or key support/resistance levels.
The indicator supports multi-timeframe (MTF) analysis, allowing users to compute EMAs, VWEMAs, and VWAP on a higher or custom timeframe (e.g., 5-minute, 1-hour, daily) while overlaying the results on the current chart. It also includes customizable cross signals for EMA and VWEMA pairs, marked with distinct shapes (circles, diamonds, squares) to highlight potential trend changes or reversals. These features make the indicator ideal for trend-following, momentum trading, and identifying key price levels across various markets, including stocks, forex, cryptocurrencies, and commodities.
**Key Features:**
- **Anchored Calculations**: EMAs, VWEMAs, and VWAP start calculations from a user-specified anchor time, enabling analysis relative to significant market moments.
- **Multi-Timeframe Support**: Compute indicators on any timeframe (e.g., 60-minute, daily) and display them on the chart’s timeframe for flexible analysis.
- **Customizable EMAs and VWEMAs**: Four EMAs and four VWEMAs with adjustable lengths (default: 9, 21, 50, 100) and colors, with options to show or hide each.
- **Volume-Weighted Metrics**: VWAP and VWEMAs incorporate volume data, providing a more robust representation of market activity compared to standard EMAs.
- **Cross Signals**: Visual markers (circles, diamonds, squares) for crossovers between EMA and VWEMA pairs, with customizable visibility to highlight bullish (up) or bearish (down) signals.
- **User-Friendly Interface**: Organized input groups for General, EMA, VWEMA, VWAP, Arrow Settings, and Cross Visibility, with intuitive inline inputs for length and color customization.
- **Visual Clarity**: Overlaid on the price chart with distinct colors and line styles (dotted for EMAs, dashed for VWEMAs, solid for VWAP) to ensure easy interpretation.
**How to Use:**
1. **Set the Anchor Time**: Click a specific bar or enter a date/time (default: June 1, 2025) to start calculations from a significant market event.
2. **Select Timeframe**: Choose a timeframe (e.g., "5" for 5-minute, "D" for daily) to compute the indicators, allowing alignment with your trading strategy.
3. **Customize EMAs and VWEMAs**: Adjust lengths and colors for up to four EMAs and VWEMAs, and toggle their visibility to focus on relevant lines.
4. **Enable VWAP**: Display the anchored VWAP to identify volume-weighted price levels, useful as dynamic support/resistance.
5. **Monitor Cross Signals**: Enable cross visibility for specific EMA or VWEMA pairs to spot potential trend changes. Bullish crosses (e.g., shorter EMA crossing above longer EMA) are marked with green shapes below the bar, while bearish crosses are marked with red shapes above the bar.
6. **Interpret Signals**: Use EMA/VWEMA crossovers for trend confirmation, VWAP as a mean-reversion level, and volume-weighted VWEMAs for momentum analysis in high-volume markets.
**Use Cases:**
- **Trend Trading**: Identify trend direction using EMA and VWEMA crossovers, with shorter lengths (e.g., 9, 21) for faster signals and longer lengths (e.g., 50, 100) for trend confirmation.
- **Mean Reversion**: Use the anchored VWAP as a dynamic support/resistance level to trade pullbacks or breakouts.
- **Event-Based Analysis**: Anchor the indicator to significant events (e.g., earnings, economic data releases) to analyze price behavior post-event.
- **Multi-Timeframe Strategies**: Combine higher timeframe EMAs/VWAPs with lower timeframe price action for high-probability setups.
**Settings:**
- **Anchor Time**: Set the starting point for calculations (default: June 1, 2025).
- **Timeframe**: Choose the timeframe for calculations (default: 5-minute).
- **EMA/VWEMA Lengths**: Default lengths of 9, 21, 50, and 100 for both EMAs and VWEMAs, adjustable per user preference.
- **Colors**: Customizable colors with slight transparency for visual clarity.
- **Cross Visibility**: Toggle specific EMA and VWEMA cross signals (e.g., EMA1/EMA2, VWEMA1/VWEMA3) to reduce chart clutter.
- **Arrow Colors**: Green for bullish crosses, red for bearish crosses.
**Notes:**
- The indicator is overlaid on the price chart, ensuring seamless integration with price action analysis.
- VWEMAs and VWAP are volume-sensitive, making them particularly effective in markets with significant volume fluctuations.
- Ensure the anchor time is set to a valid historical or future bar to avoid calculation errors.
- Cross signals are conditional on non-NA values to prevent false positives during initialization.

This indicator is a must-have for traders looking to combine anchored, volume-weighted, and multi-timeframe analysis into a single, customizable tool. Whether you're a day trader, swing trader, or long-term investor, the Anchored EMA/VWAP Indicator provides actionable insights for informed trading decisions.
Whole number highlightsThis very simple indicator provides what should be a built-in TradingView feature: it highlights the whole number currency amounts (dollar, pound, euro, etc.) on your chart with a simple and unobtrusive dotted line. By default, a slightly thicker dotted line is used on whole number multiples of ten.
These are important to highlight because they often act as "psychological levels" in the marketplace, especially when they coincide with more significant levels of support or resistance. They can also help provide a sense of scale to the chart, which is useful when switching between various zoom levels.
It's open-source, so it can be easily combined into other indicators, which should especially be useful for those with limited plans who are allowed a limited number of indicators.

Algorithmic Value Oscillator [CRYPTIK1]Algorithmic Value Oscillator
Introduction: What is the AVO? Welcome to the Algorithmic Value Oscillator (AVO), a powerful, modern momentum indicator that reframes the classic "overbought" and "oversold" concept. Instead of relying on a fixed lookback period like a standard RSI, the AVO measures the current price relative to a significant, higher-timeframe Value Zone .
This gives you a more contextual and structural understanding of price. The core question it answers is not just "Is the price moving up or down quickly?" but rather, " Where is the current price in relation to its recently established area of value? "
This allows traders to identify true "premium" (overbought) and "discount" (oversold) levels with greater accuracy, all presented with a clean, futuristic aesthetic designed for the modern trader.
The Core Concept: Price vs. Value The market is constantly trying to find equilibrium. The AVO is built on the principle that the high and low of a significant prior period (like the previous day or week) create a powerful area of perceived value.
The Value Zone: The range between the high and low of the selected higher timeframe.
Premium Territory (Distribution Zone): When the oscillator moves into the glowing pink/purple zone above +100, it is trading at a premium.
Discount Territory (Accumulation Zone): When the oscillator moves into the glowing teal/blue zone below -100, it is trading at a discount.
Key Features
1. Glowing Gradient Oscillator: The main oscillator line is a dynamic visual guide to momentum.
The line changes color smoothly from light blue to neon teal as bullish momentum increases.
It shifts from hot pink to bright purple as bearish momentum increases.
Multiple transparent layers create a professional "glow" effect, making the trend easy to see at a glance.
2. Dynamic Volatility Histogram: This histogram at the bottom of the indicator is a custom volatility meter. It has been engineered to be adaptive, ensuring that the visual differences between high and low volatility are always clear and dramatic, no matter your zoom level. It uses a multi-color gradient to visualize the intensity of market volatility.
3. Volatility Regime Dashboard: This simple on-screen table analyzes the histogram and provides a clear, one-word summary of the current market state: Compressing, Stable, or Expanding.
How to Use the AVO: Trading Strategies
1. Reversion Trading This is the most direct way to use the indicator.
Look for Buys: When the AVO line drops into the teal "Accumulation Zone" (below -100), the price is trading at a discount. Watch for the oscillator to form a bottom and start turning up as a signal that buying pressure is returning.
Look for Sells: When the AVO line moves into the pink "Distribution Zone" (above +100), the price is trading at a premium. Watch for the oscillator to form a peak and start turning down as a signal that selling pressure is increasing.
2. Best Practices & Settings
Timeframe Synergy: The AVO is most effective when your chart timeframe is lower than your selected "Value Zone Source." For example, if you trade on the 1-hour chart, set your Value Zone to "Previous Day."
Confirmation is Key: This indicator provides powerful context, but it should not be used in isolation. Always combine its readings with your primary analysis, such as market structure and support/resistance levels.
Initial Balance Breakout Signals [LuxAlgo]The Initial Balance Breakout Signals help traders identify breakouts of the Initial Balance (IB) range.
The indicator includes automatic detection of IB or can use custom sessions, highlights top and bottom IB extensions, custom Fibonacci levels, and goes further with an IB forecast with two different modes.
🔶 USAGE
The initial balance is the price range made within the first hour of the trading session. It is an intraday concept based on the idea that high volume and volatility enter the market through institutional trading at the start of the session, setting the tone for the rest of the day.
The initial balance is useful for gauging market sentiment, or, in other words, the relationship between buyers and sellers.
Bullish sentiment: Price trades above the IB range.
Mixed sentiment: Price trades within the IB range.
Bearish sentiment: Price trades below the IB range.
The initial balance high and low are important levels that many traders use to gauge sentiment. There are two main ideas behind trading around the IB range.
IB Extreme Breakout: When the price breaks and holds the IB high or low, there is a high probability that the price will continue in that direction.
IB Extreme Rejection: When the price tries to break those levels but fails, there is a high probability that it will reach the opposite IB extreme.
This indicator is a complete Initial Balance toolset with custom sessions, breakout signals, IB extensions, Fibonacci retracements, and an IB forecast. All of these features will be explained in the following sections.
🔹 Custom Sessions and Signals
By default, sessions for Initial Balance and breakout signals are in Auto mode. This means that Initial Balance takes the first hour of the trading session and shows breakout signals for the rest of the session.
With this option, traders can use the tool for open range trading, making it highly versatile. The concept behind open range (OR) is the same as that of initial balance (IB), but in OR, the range is determined by the first minute, three or five minutes, or up to the first 30 minutes of the trading session.
As shown in the image above, the top chart uses the Auto feature for the IB and Breakouts sessions. The bottom chart has the Auto feature disabled to use custom sessions for both parameters. In this case, the first three minutes of the trading session are used, turning the tool into an Open Range trading indicator.
This chart shows another example of using custom sessions to display overnight NASDAQ futures sessions.
The left chart shows a custom session from the Tokyo open to the London open, and the right chart shows a custom session from the London open to the New York open.
The chart shows both the Asian and European sessions, their top and bottom extremes, and the breakout signals from those extremes.
🔹 Initial Balance Extensions
Traders can easily extend both extremes of the Initial Balance to display their preferred targets for breakouts. Enable or disable any of them and set the IB percentage to use for the extension.
As the chart shows, the percentage selected on the settings panel directly affects the displayed levels.
Setting 25 means the tool will use a quarter of the detected initial balance range for extensions beyond the IB extremes. Setting 100 means the full IB range will be used.
Traders can use these extensions as targets for breakout signals.
🔹 Fibonacci Levels
Traders can display default or custom Fibonacci levels on the IB range to trade retracements and assess the strength of market movements. Each level can be enabled or disabled and customized by level, color, and line style.
As we can see on the chart, after the IB was completed, prices were unable to fall below the 0.236 Fibonacci level. This indicates significant bullish pressure, so it is expected that prices will rise.
Traders can use these levels as guidelines to assess the strength of the side trying to penetrate the IB. In this case, the sellers were unable to move the market beyond the first level.
🔹 Initial Balance Forecast
The tool features two different forecasting methods for the current IB. By default, it takes the average of the last ten values and applies a multiplier of one.
IB Against Previous Open: averages the difference between IB extremes and the open of the previous session.
Filter by current day of the week: averages the difference between IB extremes and the open of the current session for the same day of the week.
This feature allows traders to see the difference between the current IB and the average of the last IBs. It makes it very easy to interpret: if the current IB is higher than the average, buyers are in control; if it is lower than the average, sellers are in control.
For example, on the left side of the chart, we can see that the last day was very bullish because the IB was completely above the forecasted value. This is the IB mean of the last ten trading days.
On the right, we can see that on Monday, September 15, the IB traded slightly higher but within the forecasted value of the IB mean of the last ten Mondays. In this case, it is within expectations.
🔶 SETTINGS
Display Last X IBs: Select how many IBs to display.
Initial Balance: Choose a custom session or enable the Auto feature.
Breakouts: Enable or disable breakouts. Choose custom session or enable the Auto feature.

Adaptive Pivot Zones█ OVERVIEW
The "Adaptive Pivot Zones" indicator is a versatile tool designed to identify and visualize key pivot levels directly on the price chart. By detecting pivot highs and lows, the indicator calculates dynamic support and resistance zones based on user-defined levels (default: 0.382, 0.5, 0.618). These zones adapt to market volatility, providing traders with clear visual cues for potential reversal or continuation points. The indicator offers extensive customization options, such as adjusting colors, smoothing lines, and setting fill transparency, making it highly adaptable to various trading styles.
█ CONCEPTS
The "Adaptive Pivot Zones" indicator simplifies the identification of significant price levels by plotting three dynamic pivot lines, which can be smoothed to reduce market noise. The indicator dynamically changes the colors of the lines and fill zones based on price action, using bullish, bearish, or neutral colors to reflect market sentiment.
█ CALCULATIONS
The indicator relies on the following calculations:
- Pivot Detection: Pivot highs (ta.pivothigh) and pivot lows (ta.pivotlow) are identified using a user-defined pivot length (default: 10). Pivots represent significant price peaks and troughs. Higher pivot length values produce more stable levels but introduce a delay equal to the set value. For more aggressive strategies, the pivot length can be reduced.
- Pivot Levels: When both a pivot high and low are detected, the range between them is calculated (rng = drHigh - drLow). Three pivot levels are computed as:
Line 1: drLow + rng * pivotLevel1
Line 2: drLow + rng * pivotLevel2
Line 3: drLow + rng * pivotLevel3
- Smoothing: Pivot lines can be smoothed using a simple moving average (SMA) with a user-defined smoothing length (default: 1) to reduce noise and improve readability.
- Color Logic: Lines and fill zones are colored based on the price position relative to the pivot zones:
If the price is below the lowest pivot line, a bearish color is used (default: red).
If the price is above the highest pivot line, a bullish color is used (default: green).
If the price is within the pivot zones and the neutral color option is enabled, a neutral color is used (default: gray); otherwise, the previous color is retained.
- Fill Zones: The areas between pivot lines are filled with a user-defined transparency level (default: 80) to visually highlight support and resistance zones.
█ INDICATOR FEATURES
- Dynamic Pivot Lines: Three adaptive pivot lines (default levels: 0.382, 0.5, 0.618) are plotted on the price chart, adjusting to market volatility.
- Smoothing: User-defined smoothing length (default: 1) for pivot lines to reduce noise and enhance signal clarity.
- Dynamic Coloring: Lines and fill zones change color based on price action (bullish, bearish, or neutral when the price moves within the zone), reflecting market sentiment.
- Fill Zones: Transparent fills between pivot lines to visually highlight support and resistance zones.
- Customization: Options to adjust pivot length, pivot levels, smoothing, colors, transparency, and enable/disable neutral color logic.
█ HOW TO SET UP THE INDICATOR
- Add the "Adaptive Pivot Zones" indicator to your TradingView chart.
- Configure parameters in the settings, such as pivot length, pivot levels, smoothing length, and colors, to align with your trading strategy. Without smoothing, lines behave like levels; with smoothing, they act like bands. All three levels can be set to the same value to obtain a single level or a line behaving like a moving average derived from pivots.
- Enable or disable the neutral color option (for prices moving within the zone) and adjust fill transparency for optimal visualization.
- Adjust line thickness and style in the "Style" section to improve chart readability.
Example of bands – lines behave like support/resistance zones.
Example of a moving average derived from pivots – line behaves like a pivot-based MA.
█ HOW TO USE
Add the indicator to your chart, adjust the settings, and observe price interactions with the pivot lines and zones to identify potential trading opportunities. Key signals include:
- Price Interaction with Pivot Lines: When the price approaches or crosses a pivot line, it may indicate a potential support or resistance level. A bounce from a pivot line could signal a reversal, while a breakout might suggest trend continuation.
- Zone-Based Signals and Trend Line Usage: Price movement within or outside the filled zones can indicate market sentiment. Price below the lowest pivot line suggests bearish momentum, price above the highest pivot line suggests bullish momentum, and price within the zones may indicate consolidation. With higher pivot length values, the indicator can be used as a trend line, particularly during clear market movements.
- Color Changes: Shifts in line and fill colors (bullish, bearish, or neutral) provide visual cues about changing market conditions.
- Confirmation with Other Tools: Combine the indicator with tools like RSI or Bollinger Bands to validate signals and improve trade accuracy. For example, a buy signal from RSI in the oversold zone combined with a bounce from the lowest pivot line may indicate a strong entry point.
