Balance Zone ExtensionBalance zones are an aspect of trading that many traders notice. Balance Zones are formed when a market is in equilibrium and respects a certain high and low multiple times. These zones could also be called accumulation or distribution areas depending on the price action. If the term "choppy" is used to describe a given markets price action, it is probably a fair statement to say that the market is currently in a Balance Zone.
This script is a take on vwaptrader1's teachings where you take a balance zone and "double it" to get a target if/when it does break out of balance. It provides an automated way of extending levels based on a given balance range.
The lines plotted by the script are calculated based off of the balance high/low inputs, how many sections are desired per zone, and how many boxes to plot based on the other user inputs.
Warning: Due to a current limitation of the Pine, this script is only allowed to plot up to 500 lines total. If you start to notice lines starting to disappear or you begin getting a script error, double check the input settings as the script may have crossed the 500 line threshold.
This can be used in conjunction with Fixed Range Volume Profile . Select the balance range with the Fixed Volume Profile . Note the Value Area High and Value Area Low prices and input those into the balance range High/Low inputs.
Use to create price targets from Balance Zone Breakouts
A recent example of this idea in action on ticker ES1! 2 hour chart where the balance range was found and the target (double the box size of the balance range) was hit.
Another example of this same concept but on a normal security like AAPL but on a 30 minute chart:
Extending the usefulness even further to crypto on BTCUSD with a 5 minute chart:
Use to create reference levels for future price action
The other way to utilize this is to provide future reference levels from a key balance range from the past.
Here is another example utilizing the AMD daily chart . First, a balance zone was noted for all of 2017:
Moving forward to the most recent price action in 2023, notice that the box extension levels are still fairly well respected almost 6 years later!
Điểm Pivot và cấp độ
Three-Day Rolling PivotThe three-day rolling pivot is another pivot concept,
which may be used by intermediate positions, for several days or even weeks.
It can be utilized in many ways, such as to determine an entry point or trailing stop.
As the name suggests, this pivot is based on the last three days.
I learned this concept of the book "The logical Trader" by Mark Fisher.
Kudos go to him!
My version of the Three-Day Rolling Pivot uses actual data!
And all similar scripts I have found so far calculate future data and don't take into account the original data.
I hope this script will help some people to do some better decisions.
And I am pleased to get some advice to make this script even better!
Future data vs original data
Pine Script v5 Reference Manual:
Merge strategy for the requested data position... This merge strategy can lead to undesirable effect of getting data from "future" on calculation on history. This is unacceptable in backtesting strategies, but can be useful in indicators.
e2e4 on Stack Overflow said:
Pine v1-v2's security() function is using the lookahead parameter by default, which could be modified in v3-v5...
stackoverflow.com
I haven't found a script which put this into account jet.
I leave this option available for people that wanna more speculated data. But it's disabled by default.
Long/Short Example
You can enter Long when the market cross over the upper line (default color is green) and you should put your trailing stop 1-5 ticks below the lower line (default color is red).
The opposite when Shorting, then the market has to cross down the lower line and your trailing stop should be 1-5 ticks above the upper line.
How does this script work:
First it fetches the highest high of ...
yesterday,
the day before yesterday,
and the day before that.
After that the script looks for the highest high of all three.
Next it does the same for previous lowest low.
Last but not least, it fetches the closing price of the last day.
After that it adds all three prices together and divide them by three.
This result in a three day pivot price.
Then it adds the highest high and lowest low of the three last days and divide it by two.
This gives us the second number we need to calculate the differential.
The differential is the gap between the three day pivot price and the second number.
Sometimes the second number is bigger than the three day pivot price so I took that into account too. Other wise the colors plotted would be on the wrong site.
Finally, the script is rounding the numbers to the nearest minimum tick of that security.
Swing BoxesHey, folks!
Sorry for not posting anything for such a long time. Don't have enough ideas and resources to get inspiration, so trying to brainstorm good stuff in my free time from university studies.
But despite my absence more I now have 300+ people subscribed to me! Thanks, guys, for keeping interest for my work, as I still do value each boost on my script, for real :)
So here is new script , enjoy!
Swing Boxes is pretty simple indicator, which plots signals with "boxes", that help you determine price targets.
What is the idea behind?
I wanted to make indicator, that could help me make swing trades with nice accuracy (as all we want, lol), and for signal criteria I decided to use highs and lows of the price . Then I started coding some ideas to see which of them could be worthy. And, actually, Swing Boxes appeared to be good. But the thing is, that I didn't intend to build them, they appeared as an anomaly from my code :)
I started to explore this anomaly (it looked super cool, but was repainting hard) to fix it and I succeeded, now Swng Boxes don't repaint.
The main idea is that when price goes above it's highest value of p-bars back or below it's lowest value p-bars back, then there is a some god probability, that price will continue to follow current direction.
And the things about Swing Boxes is that when there is a good trend movement, the boxes become super small to track price movement and when price breaks out in the counter-trend direction, then you will be able to almost perfectly catch a top or a bottom! But most of the signals won't be so high-quality, so don't think that is this some holy grail to trade swing-trading, because it is not.
Signal logic
Quick hint:
- epsilon(variable e ) = ATR * ATR_Factor . It is used to determine box's sensitivity to price changes.
If previous close is higher than variable, which contains previous HIGHEST value (variable h in the code), then update the this variable by taking up-to-date highest value and add epsilon( e ) to it;
If previous close is lower than variable, which contains previous LOWEST value (variable l in the code), then update the this variable by taking up-to-date lowest value and substract epsilon( e ) from it.
Variables decribed above ( h and l ) are box's top and bottom respectively, so if price cross them, it is logical to update it is value.
Settings and what is what
Swing Box Period - numbers fo bars in the past to find highest and lowest price from. The bigger the input, the bigger the boxes will be;
ATR Period;
ATR Factor - multiplier for ATR, determines sensitivity for price changes. The bigger this input, the more accurate signals will be, but less the probability that the signal will be on the top or a bottom.
Show Boxes? - when chosen, plots box's top and bottom. Used to determine price targets.
Show Baseline? - when chosen, plot's baseline, which midline between box's top and bottom.
How to use?
This indicator plots green and red triangles by default.
- Green triangle --> Buy ;
- Red triangle --> Sell ;
As I've said before, many signals from indicator will probably be garbage, so you need to tune settings for youself, so it could satisfy you .
You can enable showing boxes to see box's top and bottom. Box's bottom --> your entry, top --> your profit target.
If you find a way to sort bad signals, you will be able to trade with super cool RR, because the signal from Swing Boxes appear to be a good one, there is almost 95% probability, that price will not even come close to your stop loss, so you can trade with super small stop-losses! Smaller stop-loss --> smaller risk --> smaller loss --> bigger profit, it is that easy.
Also you can enable baseline to use at as your 1st TP, and box's top/bottom as 2nd TP, closing 25% on TP1 and the rest on TP2 (but that is just mine recommendation, you can use different RM (risk-management), if you want).
Also you can use baseline as your S/R (Support/Resistance) line, test it out on your charts.
And please, hear me out: as all other indicators out here on the TradingView, Swing Boxes ARE NOT meant to be traded in solo! Many bad signal can go in a row, so PLEASE find your way to filter out bad signals with other indicators.
You can see here the example of a garabge-class signal in a row, so be don't be deluded!
I do hope that somebody will suggest and idea to improve this thing, as I personally don't have enough time to think about it because of my university studies, but I will probably try it make this thing better throughout the time.
And that's it for now, folks! If you have any ideas for scripts, strategies or anything else, feel free to DM me or leave a comment, I will check it.
Hope you will find this script useful.
Take your profits!

Multi-Timeframe High Low (@JP7FX)Multi-Timeframe High Low Levels (@JP7FX)
This Price Action indicator displays high and low levels from a selected timeframe on your current chart.
These levels COULD represent areas of potential liquidity, providing key price points where traders can target entries, reversals, or continuation trades.
Key Features:
Display high and low levels from a selected timeframe.
Customize line width, colors for high and low levels, and label text color.
Enable or disable the display of high levels, low levels, and labels.
Receive alerts when the price takes out high or low levels.
How to use:
It is important to note that using this indicator on it's own is not advisable. Instead, it should be combined with other tools and analysis for a more comprehensive trading strategy.
Possibly look to use my MTF Supply and Demand Indicator to look for zones to trade from at these levels?
If the price breaks above a high level, you might consider entering a long position, with the expectation that the price will continue to rise. Conversely, if the price breaks below a low level, you may think about entering a short position, anticipating further downward movement.
On the other hand, you can also use high or low levels to look for reversal trades, as these areas can represent attractive liquidity zones.
By identifying these key price points, you could take advantage of potential market reversals and capitalise on new trading opportunities.
Always remember to use this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools for the best results.
Additionally, you can enable alerts to notify you when the price takes out high or low levels, helping you stay informed about significant price movements.
This indicator could be a valuable tool for traders looking to identify key price points for potential trading opportunities.
As always with the markets, Trade Safe :)
HHLL and Liquidity LevelsHHLL AND Liquidity Levels
Description: This indicator shows hidden support and resistance levels and liquidity levels. The indicator allows traders to select source data from open/close or the high and low. The indicator also allows for appearance customization.
How can Higher highs and Lower lows and liquidity levels benefit traders?
HHLL refers to a series of higher highs and lower lows in an asset's price trend, which can indicate a potential reversal in the trend. Liquidity, on the other hand, refers to the ease with which an asset can be bought or sold without affecting its price. HHLL can help traders identify potential trends, while liquidity can ensure that trades can be executed smoothly and without significant price impact.
How can traders use this indicator?
Traders can use the indicator to identify potential market trends and market momentum. When the indicator show a series of higher highs and higher lows it can show a possible uptrend, meanwhile a series of lower lows and lower highs could show a possible uptrend with liquidity to confirm their trading decisions.
The script could also capture hidden support and resistance levels by showing areas where liquidity is concentrated and where price has repeatedly made higher highs and lower lows.
Features:
Support and Resistance levels based on Highs and Lows
Zig zags to show the HHLL's
Liquidity Levels
BOS and CHOCHS labels
Here are some examples of the indicator in action:
The HHLL and Liquidity Levels indicator being used with the Contraction and Expansion indicator to see when expansions are due and then price retest the liquidity levels.
[UPRIGHT Trading] Volatility Trend Filter (VTF) AlgoHello Traders,
As some of you know, I have had this in Beta for a long while now and it's finally time for a full release.
I originally designed this to be an Unreal Algo add-on to track & stay in the trade a little better, but the VTF Algo has become a full Algorithm and can be used standalone with supreme accuracy.
It's for beginners and advanced traders alike. I've made the settings very customizable, but also easy to just jump right in.
How it works:
It uses volatility , deviations, and tons of statistical calculations, confirmations, moving averages, and filters to bring you the most accurate Supply & Demand predictive algorithm possible. The VTF Algo will automatically normalize different volatility in any type of market to help avoid getting Chopped up and give a forward-looking approach to accurate Price Action and confirmation. It will automatically show support and resistance in real-time. The channel that The VTF Algo creates will help traders confirm whether they should stay in the trade or get out fast. As the green top grows it naturally acts as Supply and as the red bottom grows it acts as Demand, when one of them far exceeds the other the direction price will proceed to is clear to see.
Features:
-Easy-to-read Price Action & Trend channel.
-Exceptional Chop Filter (grayed center).
-Accurate Buy/Sell and Topline Continuation Signals.
-Rejection Signals.
-Multiple-Timeframe Customizable Trend Table. Showing Directional Arrows (see bottom right of picture).
-Bullish / Bearish Growing Blocks.
-Fully Customizable with Clean and Cleaner Mode.
The VTF Algo was made with all different types of traders in mind.
Some like things Ultra Crispy Clean:
Others like things a little more clean but can move their focus to where it's needed:
Lastly, there are those who don't mind things looking a little busy:
Topline Continuation Signals, Auto-Supply/Demand, and a Real-Time Multiple Timeframe Trend Table (in the bottom-right) corner:
Meshes perfectly as an Algo Add-on for Unreal Algo © (as originally designed) to enhance "The Simple Strat" © :
I tried to make everything as customizable as possible. So adding or removing or color-changing is super easy.
Happy Trading.
Cheers,
Mike
Opening Range with FibsThe indicator uses a time range and another instrument for time reference, so that it works in the time zone you care about. I have set the default to SPX500USD since it is in EST ( SPX , ES and many futures are on Chicago time and opening range gets confused). You can change the reference instrument in the settings.
You can also change the multipliers and use other values instead of 1.272 and 1.618 for Fib extensions.
TradingView has a limit as to how many objects an indicator can create so if you want to go back further for visual backtesting - use the replay tool - it will be able to draw up to the time you selected within its limits.
Let me know if you need anything else...
Happy Trading!
Pivots For IndicatorsThis is an overlay indicator that finds and identifies pivots. It is very sensitive so works best on smoother oscillators such as Stoch RSI. Make sure you set the source to your indicator after you overlay it. You will need to adjust the rev high and low inputs in the settings. For example Stoch RSI would have a revhigh = 80 and revlow = 20. This script is not designed to work on the chart.
Yellow = First Higher low or First Lower High
Orange = Reversal (Indicator low and high levels can be adjusted in settings.
Teal = Higher Low
Red = Lower High
Gray = Higher high or Lower Low
RS Stage AnalysisThis script trying to detect different lifecycle of stock / Stages.
There is mainly 4 stages of stocks.
1) stage 1 - Accumulation = color = aqua
2) stage 2 - Advancing = color = green
3) stage 3 - Distribution = color = yellow
4) stage 4 - Declining = color = red
At some point the condition i wrote wont detect any stage.
9:15 AM middle price #rangeofstinoThis indicator will show the middle price of the first one-minute candle of BankNifty at 9:15 AM for every day.
Range Analysis - By LeviathanThe Interactive Range Analysis script is an essential tool for analyzing price ranges. It automatically draws important range levels, generates a Volume Profile or Open Interest profile and horizontal/vertical heatmaps, plots the anchored VWAP, draws Fibonacci levels, and much more.
How to use the indicator:
1. The script will prompt you to select the "Start Time" and "End Time" using Tradingview's interactive interface. These two points will determine the length of the range.
2. Once you have selected the range, the script will automatically anchor the range highs and lows to the highest and lowest close/wick/hlc3/ohlc4 (whichever you prefer).
3. You can then begin exploring different tools and options such as Quarters, Eighths, Fibonacci, Outer Levels, VWAP, Horizontal Volume/OI Heatmap, Vertical Volume/OI Heatmap, Fixed Range Volume Profile, Open Interest Profile, Value Area, VAH, VAL, and POC.
4. You can adjust the range by dragging the Start Time and End Time anchors or by removing/reapplying the script.
Tool overview
Range Levels
After selecting your preferred time range, the script will identify and draw a range high level and a range low level, which serve as a base for other important levels. “Half” is the level halfway between the range high and range low. “Quarters” will, as the name suggests, split the range into four equal zones (quarters) and “Eighths” will split the range into eight equal zones (eighths).
”Fibonacci” option allows you to display Fibonacci retracement levels (0.786, 0.618, 0.382, 0.236). “VWAP” will plot a Volume Weighted Average Price, anchored to the start of the range. “Direction” input lets you choose whether your range is UP or DOWN trending in order to make sure that the Fibonacci levels and labels are generated and assigned correctly. With “Outer” turned ON, the script will also generate active levels (quarters/eighths/Fibonacci) above and below the selected price range. “Extend Right” will extend all levels to the right indefinitely, while “Extend (+Bars)” lets you choose how far right the levels get extended. “Diagonal Line” is drawn from the bottom left of the range to the top right of the range or from the top left of the range to the bottom right of the range, depending on the “Direction” input.
Volume Profile / Open Interest Profile
After selecting the “Data Type”, Volume Profile or OI Profile can be generated by turning ON the “Volume/OI Profile” option.
“Resolution” input defines the amount of nodes/rows in the range that are used in profile/heatmap generation for distributing the data. While you can increase the “Resolution” to get better, more granular profiles, you should keep in mind that you might need to lower the resolution when generating profiles for larger ranges.
”Node Type” offers you two options when it comes to the representation of data: Up/Down - divides a node in two sections for up volume/OI and down volume/OI, Total - one node for total volume/OI and Delta - net difference in up volume/OI and down volume/OI.
”Profile Position” lets you choose whether the profile is positioned on the left side of the range or on the right side of the range.
“Profile Direction” determines whether the profile nodes are facing right or left.
“Profile Type” enables you to visualize the nodes in a classic way (Type 1) or in a way where down volume/negative OI are positioned on the left side of the y axis and up volume/positive OI on the right side of the y axis.
“Node Size (%)” defines how much space in the range can be taken by the profile’s nodes. Eg. 50% will allow the largest node to extend to the middle of the range (and others scaled accordingly), 100% will allow the largest node to extend the max right point of the range (and others scaled accordingly).
”Value Area (%)” defines the VA zone, which represents the area where the most volume occured (usually 70% or 68%).
”Horizontal Heatmap” will display a heatmap-like overlay, that will help you identify the price levels where most volume/open interest action occurred.
”Vertical Heatmap” will display a heatmap-like overlay, that will help you identify the points in time where most volume/open interest action occurred.
A more detailed description of this indicator is coming in the next few days.
Important:
* If volume or OI profile does not get generated, try lowering the resolution.
* Once in a while, the script will disappear from your chart. Just remove and reapply.
* Open Interest data is only avaiable on Binance Perpetual Futures pairs

4C Options Expected Move (Weekly + 0DTE)This indicator plots the calculated Expected Move for BOTH Weekly and Zero Dated Expiration (0DTE) Daily options, for a quick visual reference.
Please Note: This indicator is different from our original "4C Expected Move (Weekly Options)" indicator, as it now packages the ability to ALSO plot 0DTE options expected moves along with Weekly expected moves. Many other newer features have also been implemented.
Background Information
The Expected Move (EM) is the amount that a stock is predicted to increase or decrease from its current price, based on the current level of options pricing and implied volatility.
This range can be viewed as possible support and resistance, or, once price gets outside of the range, institutional hedging actions can accelerate the move in that direction.
It can be useful to know what the weekly EM range is for a stock to understand the probabilities of the overall distance, direction and volatility for the week.
About the Indicator
This indicator plots the calculated Expected Move for BOTH Weekly and Zero Dated Expiration (0DTE) options, for a quick visual reference.
For the weekly EM, the range is based on the Weekly close of the prior week.
For the Daily EM based on 0DTE options, the range is based on the Daily close of the prior day.
The indicator will automatically start a new weekly EM plot at the beginning of the week, and a new daily EM at the beginning of each day.
The EM values must be updated weekly and/or daily.
Features
Plots the EM for the week
Plots the EM for the day, for symbols that offer daily expiration options
Plots the 2 Standard Deviation EM for both the weekly and daily EM
Labels with calculated values are plotted near the levels for quick visual aid
Settings
Can toggle weekly EM on/off
Can toggle Daily EM on/off
Can toggle 2 Standard Deviation lines on/off
Can toggle labels for all EM on/off
Robust line settings
Can adjust label location left/right based on personal preference
Can enter symbol into settings as a reference
Handy instructions in the settings
How To Set Up The Indicator
To use this indicator you must have access to a broker with options data (not available on Tradingview).
Usually, you can look at the stock's option chain to find the weekly expected move.
You will have to do your own research to find where this information is displayed depending on your broker. You may also need to find the information elsewhere if your broker does not have this information.
You can also do your calculation of the EM using the following formula (please do your own research):
Expected Move = Option Price x Implied Volatility x Square Root of Time
See screenshot example below
This is the Thinkorswim platform's option chain, and the Implied Volatility % and the calculated EM are on the right side of the option chain.
The Expected Move is circled in blue. Use the +- number in parentheses, NOT the % value.
For the weekly EM, input the number that corresponds to the weekly option into the indicator. This must be done on a weekly basis, and It is typically best to use the EM for the next week expiration that is generated AFTER the Friday close and/or before the Monday open of the upcoming week.
For the daily EM, input the number that corresponds to the daily 0DTE option into the indicator. This must be done on a daily basis, and it is typically best to use the EM value for the 0DTE option that is generated the night before (after market close), or before the market opens for that 0DTE. .

Daily Opening GAPPlots the daily opening gap as a box. As price moves into the box the size of the box is reduced until the gap is closed and the box no longer extends forward.
There are options to include middle lines for the center of the gap, as well as quartile lines.
While there are plenty of opening gap scripts out there none that I found tracked the closing of the gap over time.
Scalp Zones [SI]The Scalp Zones indicator provides traders with visual ranges or "zones" on their charts, which can be used to quickly identify potential entry points for their trades in real time. Once price action enters the designated zone, trade signals and alerts will be generated, making it easier for both scalpers and swing traders to identify promising trading opportunities with greater confidence.
Although Scalp Zones is relatively easy to use, its simplicity is the end result of some interesting and rather complex analysis of price action and market structure.
█ CONCEPTS
Price Action vs Market Structure
For our purposes, “price action” refers to the movement of a security's price over time, whereas “market structure”, which is built upon price action, includes trends and support/resistance levels, breakouts, reversals of trend, etc. All of which can help traders identify potential entry and exit points for their trades.
Scalp Zone
A “Scalp Zone” is an area just above resistance or just below support that is deemed to be part of a trend that is exhausted or part of a “whipsaw” in the price action.
█ FEATURES
Can be combined with other indicators
Scalp Zones displays color-coded rectangles or "zones" that indicate areas of potential volatility, trend reversals and consolidation in price action. These zones can be used in conjunction with other indicators to more effectively identify trade opportunities.
Can also serve as an exit signal
Since Scalp Zones identifies areas where market participants are likely to enter or exit positions, they can offer some traders a way to spot good exits for their trades. For instance, if the price fails to surpass a significant resistance level (identified by a “scalp Zone”) and begins to decline, this may serve as a sell signal for traders who intend to lock in profits on a potential trend reversal.
Automatically adjusts to market conditions
Scalp Zones uses Average True Range (ATR) to dynamically adjust the size of the color-coded zones based on the current market conditions. By factoring in the ATR, the tool can produce zones that reflect the volatility of the market and adjust to changing levels of price movement.
█ LIMITATIONS
The Scalp Zones indicator is designed to provide traders with signals for potential entry points in the market, but it should not be used as the sole basis for making trading decisions. As with any trading indicator, it is important to acknowledge and understand that past performance does not guarantee future outcomes and that several other variables contribute to achieving success as a trader, especially proper risk management.
ICT MSS & Liquidity (fadi)ICT MSS & Liquidity indicator calculates two pivot points and the most likely location of the liquidity. The two pivot points are called Major and Internal. Both can be configured and adjusted separately to suit the instrument being traded and how the trader prefers to trade.
Major Trend
Major Trend is usually a better indicator of the trend direction. This is because it encapsulates longer period and allows for price fluctuation reducing the number of false Market Structure Shifts (MSS).
There is no set numeric value for the Pivot Length (number of bars used to calculate the high and low points). The pivot length is a judgement call by the trader and can be adjusted to what the trader feels comfortable with.
In the image above, a trader can see that the Major trend is making lower low move where it has swept liquidity (dotted line) and has the potential to reverse direction, if higher timeframe provides supporting evidence.
Internal Trend
Internal Trend is usually used to identify an internal shift in market structure that may, but not guaranteed, indicates that the Major Trend's current leg movement is about to reverse direction. It is not an indicator in itself that the overall Major trend is about to make major change in direction.
For example, if the Major trend is showing Lower Lows and Lower Highs, a higher high on the Internal Trend could simply mean that the Major Trend is done with a Lower Low move and about to make a lower high move and not sweep the liquidity above the previous lower high. If, however, the larger picture indicates that the Major Trend has reached a potential reversal point, the Internal Trend could be used to corroborate that thesis by forming the higher high.
In the image above, the internal trend provides an indication that a market structure shift is probably under way and, if proper analysis performed, a position can be entered.
Liquidity
Liquidity rests above highs and lows on both Major and Internal trends. The indicator will draw both open and claimed liquidity lines. Price tends to move towards liquidity and, if enabled, the indicator provides an easy way to identify potential targets. Liquidity could be drawn on both Major and Internal Trends.
[JL] Supertrend Zone Pivot Point with zigzag fibThis is an open-source Pine script that generates a Supertrend Zone Pivot Point with Zigzag Fib indicator for TradingView. The indicator displays the Supertrend Zone, pivot points, and Fibonacci levels on the chart.
One of the unique features of this indicator is that it uses a Zigzag that does not repaint, ensuring accurate high and low points for the pivot points.
Another feature is that when the Supertrend is in an uptrend, only the highest points are taken as pivot points, and when it's in a downtrend, only the lowest points are taken as pivot points.
The Fibonacci levels are calculated based on the previous high and low pivot points, with labels displaying the corresponding levels on the chart.
The indicator also includes options to show/hide the Zigzag and Fibonacci levels.
Overall, this indicator is useful for identifying key pivot points and Fibonacci levels in the Supertrend Zone, providing valuable information for traders to make informed decisions.
BB Mod + ForecastThis is a combination of two previous indicators; ALMA stdev band with fibs and Vector MACD.
Bollinger Band Mod fits the standard deviation on both sides of the center moving average ( ALMA +/- stdev / 2 ) and calculates Fibonacci ratios from stdev on both sides.
It is more averaging and more responsive at the same time compared to Bollinger Band.
Forecast is calculated from difference between origin ma ( ALMA from hl2 ) and six different period Hull moving averages averaged together and added to the center ma on both sides.
Fibonacci levels for 0.618 1.618 and 2.618 are added.
The dashed lines point towards the trend. Gives you a better idea of the current trend and momentum in the band.
Weekly Opening GAPThis indicator will plot the weekly opening gap on the chart. The gap will be carried forward until it is closed or the max line count is reached. Additionally the 1/4 levels inside the gap are plotted on the chart as weekly gaps can be large.
The weekly opening gap levels can act as targets and rejection points.
Optionally the script can also carry forward the top and bottom lines of the weekly opening gap for up to the 10 prior gaps. These lines are not removed when the gap is closed.
Drip's 11am rule breakout/breakdown (OG)This indicator is based on Drippy2hard's 11:30 am (EST) rule.
In simple terms the rule states that:
If a trending stock makes a new high after 11:15-11:30am EST, there is a 75% chance of closing within 1% of High of day (HOD). Same applies for downtrend.
Please note:
Not all stocks will abide by this, this is backtested on stocks with avg daily volume > 2M and mostly mega cap stocks which have liquid option chains. The backtesting results show very promising results on $SPY/ $SPX so it is advised to trade $SPY/ $SPX using this indicator over any other stocks.
Although the name suggests 11 AM rule, the backtesting shows higher win rate for 11:30 AM so please select that option in the settings.
As always, no indicator is perfect and please follow your risk management and understand that indicators are tools to aid your trading and by no means they are supposed to work as intended in all scenarios
How the script works
1. A HOD/LOD zone is identified based on regular session (9:30am-11:30am) EST. Users can select cut off time to 11AM in the settings. These will be indicated on chart after 11/11:30pm depending on what user selected
2. If the stock breaks above the HOD and the ADX is showing strong momentum to upside then the candlesticks will start showing neon color, if the trend based on moving averages and candle closing is also bullish then the indicator will show trend arrows under the candle indicating to stay in the trade. Same applies for break below LOD, only the colors will change to represent downtrend.
3. An optional cloud is also shown if the trend is developed. The cloud can be used as trail stop or re entry point as long as it is displayed on chart
How to use the indicator in trading
In general, there are three scenarios which are trade worthy
1. If the stocks breaks out above the HOD zone and up trend develops or the stocks breaks below the LOD zone and downtrend develops. See images below
2. You can also use the LOD/HOD zone as demand/ supply if the Price action is range bound like this example below

[JL] Fractals ATR BlockI decided to combine Fractal ROC , ATR Break, and Order Blocks to an Indicator
The Fractal ROC , ATR Break, and Order Blocks indicator combines three concepts to help traders identify potential trade opportunities and manage risk. By using a combination of Fractal ROC , ATR Break, and Order Blocks, traders can gain a deeper understanding of market dynamics and make more informed trading decisions.
Fractal ROC is a momentum-based indicator that calculates the rate of change of the price between fractals, which are turning points in the market. It is calculated by taking the difference between the closing price and the lowest price in the previous n+1 periods, and dividing it by the difference between the open price 2n periods ago and the lowest price in the previous n+1 periods. This calculation is done for both up and down fractals. When the Fractal ROC value is greater than the ROC Break Level (as determined by the input variable roclevel), it indicates a potential momentum shift in the market. This can be used to identify potential trade entries or exits, depending on your trading strategy.
ATR Break is an indicator that helps traders identify significant price movements in the market. It measures the distance between the price and the Average True Range (ATR), which is a measure of the volatility of the market. ATR Break is calculated by taking the difference between the close and high/low, and dividing it by the previous ATR value. This calculation is done for both up and down movements. When the ATR Break value is greater than the ATR Break Level (as determined by the input variable atrlevel), it indicates a significant move in the market. This can be used to identify potential breakouts or breakdowns, and can be used to set stop-loss and take-profit levels.
An Order Block is a price level where significant buying or selling activity has taken place. The order blocks made by ATR Break and Fractal ROC are drawn using boxes on the chart. When the ATR or Fractal ROC level is breached, a box is drawn with the high and low of the candle that breached the level as the top and bottom of the box, respectively. The box is then extended to the right until the end of the chart or until another ATR or Fractal ROC level is breached, at which point a new box is drawn. This allows traders to easily identify significant price movements and potential support and resistance levels on the chart. When an Order Block is identified, it can be used as a potential support or resistance level . If price approaches an Order Block from below, it is likely to bounce off this level and continue in an upward direction. Similarly, if price approaches an Order Block from above, it is likely to bounce off this level and continue in a downward direction. Traders can use these levels to identify potential trade entries or exits, as well as to set stop-loss and take-profit levels.
Overall, the Fractal ROC , ATR Break, and Order Blocks indicator is a powerful tool for traders who want to identify potential trade opportunities and manage risk. By combining these three concepts, traders can gain a deeper understanding of market dynamics and make more informed trading decisions. As with any indicator, it is important to use it in conjunction with other analysis tools and to have a clear trading plan in place.
Simple Market StructureThis indicator is meant for education and experimental purposes only.
Many Market Structure Script out there isn't open-sourced and some could be complicated to understand to modify the code. Hence, I published this code to make life easier for beginner programmer like me to modify the code to fit their custom indicator.
As I am not a expert or pro in coding it might not be as accurate as other reputable author.
Any experts or pros that is willing to contribute this code in the comment section below would be appreciated, I will modify and update the script accordingly as part of my learning journey.
It is useful to a certain extend to detect Market Structure using Swing High/Low in all market condition.
Here are some points that I am looking to improve / fix:
To fix certain horizontal lines that does not paint up to the point where it breaks through.
To add in labels when a market structure is broken.
Allow alerts to be sent when market structure is broken (Probably be done in the last few updates after knowing it is stable and as accurate as possible)
Any suggested improvement, please do let me know in the comment section below and I will try my best to implement it into the script.
