Future Ichimoku Cloud - HorizonIchimoku Horizon is an advanced Ichimoku indicator that projects future cloud formations and component lines, giving traders unprecedented visibility into potential support/resistance zones before they form.
1. Future Ichimoku Projections
Project Ichimoku components forward in time using simulated price evolution based on rolling Tenkan/Kijun windows
Manual forecast periods up to 125 bars (all 4 components) or 500 bars (cloud only)
Smart limit management automatically adjusts to TradingView's drawing object limits while maximizing visible projections
2. Preset & Custom Ichimoku Configurations
Choose from multiple common Ichimoku presets or fully customize your own
3. Multi-Timeframe Display & Projections
Display Ichimoku from higher/lower timeframes directly on your current timeframe chart
Automatic scaling adjusts Ichimoku periods correctly across timeframes
Intelligent handling of 24/7 markets (crypto/forex) vs traditional session-based markets
Built-in detection of problematic timeframe combinations with optional MTF cloud fetching for accuracy
Automatic notifications when future projections are unavailable due to MTF constraints
4. Tenkan & Kijun Range Windows
Visual range windows that display the exact high/low range used for Tenkan and Kijun calculations
Optional High/Low markers placed at the exact bars they occur
Optional countdown labels show how many bars remain until the current High/Low expires from the rolling window
Range windows scale up and down dynamically to match display timeframe
5. Comprehensive Alert Suite
Built-in alerts for all major Ichimoku events: TK crosses, E2E entires, Kumo breakouts, etc.
All alerts are cloud-aware and displacement-correct.
How It Works
The indicator uses the traditional Donchian channel method to calculate Ichimoku components, then extends this logic forward by simulating future price action within the calculation windows (no new highs or lows). This creates a forward-looking projection of where support and resistance zones will form.
The range display feature helps traders understand why the lines are where they are by showing the exact high/low points and countdown timers for when these points will expire from the calculation.
Who This Indicator Is For:
Ichimoku traders who want future-aware context
Multi-timeframe analysts seeking correctly aligned clouds
Traders who want to understand Tenkan/Kijun mechanics
Users who need precision without manual recalculation
Notes:
Maximum 500 drawing objects limit managed automatically
Due to Pinescript/TradingView limitations, future Tenkan/Kijun line width is only modifiable in the source code.
Range
Volatility High/Low Projection (PHOD / PLOD)AP Capital – Volatility + High/Low Projection
This indicator is designed to identify high-probability intraday turning points by combining daily range statistics, session behaviour, and volatility context into a single clean framework.
It is built for index, forex, and metals traders who want structure, not noise.
🔹 Core Features
1️⃣ Potential High of Day (PHOD) & Potential Low of Day (PLOD)
The indicator highlights likely intraday extremes based on:
Session timing (Asia, London, New York)
Current day volatility vs historical averages
Prior day expansion or compression behaviour
Each level is displayed with:
A clear label (PHOD / PLOD)
A forward-extending box acting as a live Point of Interest (POI)
Automatic invalidation when price breaks the zone
2️⃣ Volatility & Range Context (Info Panel)
A compact information panel in the top-right corner provides real-time context without cluttering the chart:
20-Day Average Range
% of the average range already used today
Range status (NORMAL / EXHAUSTED)
Average session ranges for:
Asia
London
New York
This allows traders to immediately assess whether price is:
Early in the day with room to trend
Statistically stretched and prone to reversal
Over-extended where breakout chasing is risky
3️⃣ Session-Aware Logic
The model respects how markets behave across the trading day:
Asia favours accumulation and potential lows
London provides expansion
New York often delivers distribution or exhaustion
This prevents random high/low marking and focuses only on structurally meaningful levels.
🧠 How to Use
Use PHOD / PLOD boxes as reaction zones, not blind entries
Combine with your own confirmation (structure break, momentum, volume, EMA reclaim, etc.)
Avoid chasing trades when the Range Status = EXHAUSTED
Particularly effective on 15m – 1h timeframes
⚠️ Important Notes
This indicator does not repaint
It is contextual, not a buy/sell signal generator
Best used as part of a complete trading plan
📈 Suitable Markets
XAUUSD (Gold)
Indices (NASDAQ, S&P 500, DAX)
Major FX pairs

Delta Price Range BandsThis indicator uses the historical price delta range analysis method, perhaps known to some as HPDR thanks to YouTuber Krown.
To test the method and it's usability, I programmed my own version and put some more features into it, like a preview median price feature.
Malama's Range BreakoutMalama's Range Breakout is a dynamic Pine Script v6 indicator designed to automatically detect periods of price consolidation (tight ranges) on any timeframe or market, visually highlight them with expandable boxes, and generate actionable signals for breakouts and wick-based reversals.
Key Features
Adaptive Consolidation Detection: Uses a volatility-adjusted threshold (ATR multiplier) over a user-defined lookback period to identify genuinely tight ranges, avoiding false detections in trending or high-volatility conditions.
Preset Profiles: Quickly switch between optimized settings for different trading styles:
Tight Ranges (Scalping): Short lookback, low threshold for frequent small-range setups.
Normal Ranges (Intraday): Balanced for day trading.
Swing Trading: Longer lookback for larger consolidations.
Options Selling (Chop): Very low threshold to capture extended sideways/choppy phases.
Custom: Full manual control.
Visual Elements: Draws semi-transparent boxes around detected ranges (with optional dashed midline), dynamically extending them until a valid breakout occurs. Limits historical boxes for clean charts.
Breakout Signals: Triggers buy/sell labels and alerts only on confirmed breakouts, optionally requiring a volume spike (above SMA threshold) for higher-probability momentum moves.
Wick Reversal Signals: Detects rejection wicks touching range boundaries (without closing outside), signaling potential fakeouts or early reversals. Optional next-bar confirmation (e.g., bearish candle after upper wick) reduces false signals.
Built-in Alerts: Separate alert conditions for range detection, bullish/bearish breakouts, and confirmed/unconfirmed wick reversals.
How It Works
The script continuously monitors the price range over the selected lookback period. When the range contracts below the ATR-based threshold, it initiates a consolidation box starting from the tightest point. The box expands with new highs/lows while price remains inside.
A true breakout closes outside the box (with optional volume confirmation) → ends the range and plots a directional signal.
Wicks probing boundaries without closing outside → flags potential rejection/reversal zones inside the range.
This combination helps traders anticipate volatility expansion after compression, while distinguishing strong momentum breakouts from traps/false breaks.
Why It's Useful
Unlike fixed-time Opening Range Breakout (ORB) tools or simple consolidation detectors, this indicator adapts to current market volatility (via ATR) and works across all timeframes—ideal for scalping tight intraday ranges, capturing swing consolidations, or identifying chop for premium-selling strategies. The volume filter and wick reversal detection add confluence, helping avoid low-conviction trades in ranging markets.
Usage Tips
Best on liquid assets (stocks, futures, forex, crypto).
Combine breakouts with trend filters (e.g., higher-timeframe EMA) for directional bias.
Use wick signals cautiously in strong trends—they shine in ranges or at key levels.
Test presets on your preferred timeframe; "Normal" is a solid default for most intraday work.
No repainting: All logic based on confirmed closes.
ORB Pro - NY Opening Range Breakout [Elev8+]**ORB Pro - NY Opening Range Breakout ** is a comprehensive, professional-grade toolkit designed for intraday traders who rely on the **Opening Range Breakout (ORB)** strategy.
Unlike standard ORB indicators that simply draw lines, this suite offers a complete dashboard-driven system that monitors **four distinct sessions** simultaneously, providing real-time status updates and precision alerts.
### 🎯 What is the Opening Range Breakout (ORB)?
The Opening Range is the price range established during the first period of the trading session (e.g., the first 15 or 30 minutes). This period represents the initial balance between buyers and sellers. A breakout from this range often signals the likely trend direction for the remainder of the session.
### 🚀 Key Features
**1. Multi-ORB Monitoring**
Stop switching settings constantly. This suite monitors four key ranges at once:
* **Pre-Market 15m** (08:00 – 08:15 ET)
* **Pre-Market 30m** (08:00 – 08:30 ET)
* **NY Cash Open 15m** (09:30 – 09:45 ET)
* **NY Cash Open 30m** (09:30 – 10:00 ET)
**2. Smart Status Dashboard**
A compact panel in the bottom-right corner gives you the live state of every session:
* **⏳ Waiting:** The session has not started yet.
* **⚡ Forming:** The range is currently being built.
* **↔️ Range:** The range has formed, but price is still contained within the range.
* **🚀 BULL / 📉 BEAR:** A confirmed breakout has occurred.
* **⛔ OFF:** The session is disabled in settings.
**3. "Dynamic Resolution" Technology**
This is a unique pro feature.
* **Precision:** The script *always* calculates the High/Low levels using 1-minute data, ensuring your support/resistance lines are pixel-perfect regardless of your chart timeframe.
* **Flexibility:** Breakout signals (Alerts/Labels) are triggered based on your *current* chart timeframe. This allows you to trade a 5m or 15m breakout strategy while keeping 1m-level precision on your levels.
**4. Visual Clarity**
* **Breakout Labels:** Automatically plots "BULL" or "BEAR" labels on the exact candle that confirms a breakout.
* **Profit Targets:** Optional toggle to show 1x and 2x profit targets projected from the breakout level.
* **Time-Bound Signals:** Signals are strictly time-bound to the active window to prevent late, low-quality alerts.
### 🛠️ How to Use
1. **Add to Chart:** Works best on intraday timeframes (1m, 5m, 15m).
2. **Configure:** Enable the sessions you trade (e.g., NY 15m) in the settings.
3. **Wait for Forming:** Watch the box form live. The dashboard will show "⚡ Forming".
4. **Trade the Break:** Wait for a candle **Close** outside the range. The dashboard will flip to "BULL" or "BEAR" and a label will appear.
5. **Manage Risk:** Use the opposite side of the range or the midline as your stop loss.
### ⚙️ Settings Overview
* **Global Settings:** Toggle forming boxes, dashboard, and label visibility.
* **Breakout Method:** Choose between **Close** (safer) or **Wick** (aggressive) for signal triggers.
* **Session Groups:** Individually enable/disable the 4 distinct sessions and customize their colors/styles.

Daily contextThis indicator automatically marks the Previous Day’s High and Low, as well as the market’s midnight opening price.
These levels are updated at the start of each new trading day and remain visible throughout the entire session.
By providing key daily reference points, the indicator helps establish a clear market context and allows traders to immediately understand where price is positioned relative to the previous day’s range and the daily open.
Open Range BreakoutOpen Range Breakout (ORB)
The Open Range Breakout (ORB) is a classic intraday strategy used across stocks, indices, FX and futures. It focuses on how price behaves during the first minutes of a major session, when liquidity and volatility are highest.
This indicator fully automates the ORB process with session detection, box drawing, breakout & retest logic, and final Buy/Sell signals.
Multi-Session Support
Choose between the three most important global opens:
Asia (Tokyo) – JPY pairs, Asian indices, gold, crypto
London – FX majors, European indices, strong volatility
New York – US indices, USD pairs, gold, oil, highest volume
The Opening Range is calculated only during the selected session.
ORB Range (5 / 15 / 30 min)
The indicator builds the ORB High/Low from the first X minutes of the session, draws the box, and waits for price action once the range is complete.
How It Works
ORB Window → High/Low of the opening minutes are recorded.
Breakout → Price closes above/below the ORB → “BREAKOUT” label.
Retest → Price returns to the ORB box → “RETEST” label.
Confirmation Levels Freeze → Upper/lower structure set.
Final Signal
Close above frozen upper level → BUY
Close below frozen lower level → SELL
This filters out false breakouts and provides structured continuation signals.
Alerts
Includes built-in alert conditions for:
ORB BUY Signal
ORB SELL Signal
Alerts trigger exactly when the Buy or Sell label appears.
Works On

Average Candle SizeI created this indicator because I couldn't find a simple tool that calculates just the average candle size without additional complexity. Built for traders who want a straightforward volatility measure they can fully understand. How it works:
1. Calculate high-low for each candle
2. Sum all results
3. Divide by the total number of candles
Simple math to get the average candle size of the period specified in Length.
Multi ORBv6Multiple period Opening Range indicator with alerts. Up to six user defined periods for trading different futures sessions.
Multi-ORB v6This indicator will chart multiple user-defined (up to 6) opening range periods. For futures I recommend the 15 min OR for Tokyo and London opens (or the 8:30 5 minute OR on news days ) and the 1, 5, 15, and 60 IB periods. The indicator will highlight up and down breaks as well as issue alerts. Enjoy.
Range Lattice## RangeLattice
RangeLattice constructs a higher-timeframe scaffolding on any intraday chart, locking in structural highs/lows, mid/quarter grids, VWAP confluence, and live acceptance/break analytics. It provides a non-repainting overlay that turns range management into a disciplined process.
HOW IT WORKS
Structure Harvesting – Using request.security() , the script samples highs/lows from a user-selected timeframe (default 240 minutes) over a configurable lookback to establish the dominant range.
Grid Construction – Midpoint and quarter levels are derived mathematically, mirroring how institutional traders map distribution/accumulation zones.
Acceptance Detection – Consecutive closes inside the range flip an acceptance flag and darken the cloud, signaling balanced auction conditions.
Break Confirmation – Multi-bar closes outside the structure raise break labels and alerts, filtering the countless fake-outs that plague breakout traders.
VWAP Fan Overlay – Session VWAP plus ATR-based bands provide a live measure of flow centering relative to the lattice.
HOW TO USE IT
Range Plays : Fade taps of the outer rails only when acceptance is active and VWAP sits inside the grid—this is where mean-reversion works best.
Breakout Plays : Wait for confirmed break labels before entering expansion trades; the dashboard's Width/ATR metric tells you if the expansion has enough fuel.
Market Prep : Carry the same lattice from pre-market into regular trading hours by keeping the structure timeframe fixed; alerts keep you notified even when managing multiple tickers.
VISUAL FEATURES
Range Tap and Mid Pivot markers provide a tape-reading breadcrumb trail for journaling.
Cloud fill opacity tightens when acceptance persists, visually signaling balance compressions ready to break.
Dashboard displays absolute width, ATR-normalized width, and current state (Balanced vs Transitional) so you can glance across charts quickly.
Acceptance Flag toggle: Keep the repeated acceptance squares hidden until you need to audit balance.
PARAMETERS
Structure Timeframe (default: 240): Choose the timeframe whose ranges matter most (4H for indices, Daily for stocks).
Structure Lookback (default: 60): Bars sampled on the structure timeframe.
Acceptance Bars (default: 8): How many consecutive bars inside the range confirm balance.
Break Confirmation Bars (default: 3): Bars required outside the range to validate a breakout.
ATR Reference (default: 14): ATR period for width normalization.
Show Midpoint Grid (default: enabled): Display the midpoint and quarter levels.
Show Adaptive VWAP Fan (default: enabled): Toggle the VWAP channel for assets where volume distribution matters most.
Show Acceptance Flags (default: disabled): Turn the acceptance markers on/off for maximum visual control.
Show Range Dashboard (default: enabled): Disable if screen space is limited, re-enable during prep sessions.
ALERTS
The indicator includes five alert conditions:
Range High Tap: Price interacted with the RangeLattice high
Range Low Tap: Price interacted with the RangeLattice low
Range Mid Tap: Price interacted with the RangeLattice mid
Range Break Up: Confirmed upside breakout
Range Break Down: Confirmed downside breakout
Where it works best
This indicator works best on liquid instruments with clear structural levels. On very low timeframes (1-minute and below), the structure may update too frequently to be useful. The acceptance/break confirmation system requires patience—faster traders may find the multi-bar confirmation too slow for scalping. The VWAP fan is session-based and resets daily, which may not suit all trading styles.
FluxPulse Beacon## FluxPulse Beacon
FluxPulse Beacon applies a microstructure lens to every bar, combining directional thrust, realized volatility, and multi-timeframe liquidity checks to decide whether the tape is being pushed by real sponsorship or just noise. The oscillator's color-coded columns and adaptive burst thresholds transform complex flow dynamics into a single actionable flux score for futures and equities traders.
HOW IT WORKS
Momentum Extraction – Price differentials over a configurable pulse distance are smoothed using exponential moving averages to isolate directional thrust without reacting to single prints.
Volatility + Liquidity Normalization – The momentum stream is divided by realized volatility and multiplied by both local and higher-timeframe EMA volume ratios, ensuring pulses only appear when volatility and liquidity align.
Adaptive Thresholding – A volatility-derived standard deviation of flux is blended with the base threshold so bursts scale automatically between low-volatility and high-volatility market conditions.
Divergence Engine – Linear regression slopes compare price vs. flux to tag bullish/bearish divergences, highlighting stealth accumulation or distribution zones.
HOW TO USE IT
Continuation Entries : Go with the trend when histogram bars stay above the adaptive threshold, the signal line confirms, and trend bias agrees—this is where liquidity-backed follow-through lives.
Fade Plays : Watch for divergence alerts and shrinking compression values; when flux prints below zero yet price grinds higher, hidden selling pressure often precedes rollovers.
Session Filter : Compression percentage in the diagnostics table instantly tells you whether to trade thin overnight sessions—low compression means stand down.
VISUAL FEATURES
Dynamic background heat maps flux magnitude, while threshold lines provide a quick read on whether a pulse is statistically significant.
Diagnostics table displays live flux, signal, adaptive threshold, and compression for quick reference.
Alert-first workflow: The surface is intentionally clean—bursts and divergences are delivered via alerts instead of on-chart clutter.
PARAMETERS
Trend EMA Length (default: 34): Defines the macro bias anchor; increase for higher-timeframe confirmation.
Pulse Distance (default: 8): Controls how sensitive momentum extraction becomes.
Volatility Window (default: 21): Sample window for realized volatility normalization.
Liquidity Window (default: 55): Volume smoothing window that proxies liquidity expansion.
Liquidity Reference TF (default: 60): Select a higher timeframe to cross-check whether current volume matches institutional flows.
Adaptive Threshold (default: enabled): Disable for fixed thresholds on slower markets; enable for high-volatility assets.
Base Burst Threshold (default: 1.25): Minimum flux magnitude that qualifies as an actionable pulse.
ALERTS
The indicator includes four alert conditions:
Bull Burst: Detects upside liquidity pulses
Bear Burst: Detects downside liquidity pulses
Bull Divergence: Flags bullish delta divergence
Bear Divergence: Flags bearish delta divergence
LIMITATIONS
This indicator is designed for liquid futures and equity markets. Performance may degrade in low-volume or highly illiquid instruments. The adaptive threshold system works best on timeframes where sufficient volatility history exists (typically 15-minute charts and above). Divergence signals are probabilistic and should be confirmed with price action.

Footprint.Pro-v3.7-EN [Elykia]Title: Footprint Pro System - Order Flow & Price Action
Footprint Pro is a comprehensive institutional-grade Order Flow suite designed to visualize the internal dynamics of a candle. It allows traders to see Bid x Ask volume, Delta, and Liquidity imbalances directly inside the bars, offering a "X-Ray" view of the market.
This tool is optimized for Scalping and Intraday trading, compatible with both Standard Timeframes and simulated Range Bars.
🔥 Key Features
1. Dual Calculation Modes
Timeframe Mode: Displays Footprints on standard candles (1m, 5m, etc.) with a live countdown.
Range Mode (Simulated): Calculates Range Bars based on volatility (Points/Ticks) rather than time. This filters out noise and highlights pure price movement.
Note: Includes a performance optimizer to limit historical calculation.
2. Advanced Visualization Styles
Standard Style: Classic box display with Bid x Ask or Total Volume numbers. Includes a Volume Heatmap that changes color intensity based on Delta strength.
Profile Style: Displays a volume profile histogram next to each candle to visualize the distribution of liquidity within the bar.
3. 🧠 Smart Assistant & Automated Setups
The script includes a real-time analysis engine that detects 5 high-probability Order Flow setups:
S1 - Rejection: Detects price reversal with strong wick rejection and Delta confirmation.
S2 - Exhaustion: Identifies a trend drying up (Volume drops significantly at highs/lows).
S3 - Absorption (Iceberg): Detects aggressive buying/selling that fails to move price (High Volume + Inverse Delta).
S4 - Trapped Traders (New): "Effort vs. Result." Detects high Delta participation but the candle closes in reverse (e.g., Doji or opposite color).
S5 - Stacked Imbalances (New): Identifies "Walls" of liquidity. Looks for 3 consecutive levels where Buy/Sell volume exceeds the imbalance ratio (default 300%).
4. Data & Analytics Dashboard
Fixed Data Ribbon: A ribbon at the bottom of the screen showing Volume, Delta, and Divergences for the last 50 candles.
Technical Dashboard: Displays current mode, Range size, and tick value.
Setups Table: An on-screen legend explaining active signals and their logic.
5. Order Flow Nuances
Delta Flip (Divergence): Highlights candles where Price and Delta disagree (e.g., Red Candle but Positive Delta), signaling a potential reversal or trap.
POC (Point of Control): auto-plots the highest volume node of the candle.
VWAP Session: Integrated anchor for confluence.
5. 🔥 Advanced Histogram & Visualization
The core of this system is its ability to break down a candle into granular price levels (bins). It offers a rich visual representation of market intent:
Dynamic Histogram:
Standard Style: Displays volume blocks inside the candle.
Profile Style: Projects a Volume Profile histogram alongside the candle to instantly identify high-volume nodes (HVN) and low-volume nodes (LVN).
Delta & Volume Data:
You can choose to display Bid x Ask interactions or Total Volume per level.
Delta Coloring: Automatically colors bars based on the net difference between buyers and sellers.
Smart Heatmap (Visual Filtering):
The script uses a dynamic Heatmap System.
Weak Levels: Displayed with high transparency (faint colors), filtering out noise.
Strong Levels: Displayed in solid, bright colors (Red/Green) when volume/delta exceeds critical thresholds. This draws your eye immediately to where the real money is exchanging hands.
🛠️ Installation & Best Setup (Critical)
For the most accurate volume filtering and "Tick-Perfect" precision, this tool is designed to work on the lowest possible timeframe.
1. Set Chart to 1-Second Timeframe:
Ideally, position your TradingView chart on the 1-second (1s) timeframe.
Why? The script aggregates these micro-movements to reconstruct higher timeframe candles with minimal data loss and maximum volume precision.
2. Clean the Chart:
Go to Chart Settings (Symbol).
Uncheck "Body", "Borders", and "Wick".
Why? The script draws its own custom candles. Hiding the native chart prevents visual clutter.
3. Configure the Footprint:
Open the Indicator Settings.
Timeframe Footprint: Select your desired trading timeframe (e.g., 1 minutes ... 15 minutes, ).
The script will now calculate and draw a perfect 5-minute Footprint candle using the high-precision 1-second data feed.
🚀 Optimization
Footprint charts are calculation-heavy. This script includes a Performance Optimization group:
Limits the number of drawn boxes.
Dynamic buffer calculation.
"Smart Load" allows you to view historical data without freezing the browser.
Recommended (Premium): To optimize the tool and precisely separate Buy/Sell, using second-based charts (1s, 5s) via a TradingView Premium subscription is highly recommended.
Disclaimer: Order Flow analysis requires practice. This tool provides data visualization and does not constitute financial advice.

4H and above. This is a swing-trading / position-trading style engine, not a micro-scalper.
Best Assets:
Volatile but structured markets, e.g.:
BTC, ETH, XAUUSD (Gold), GBPJPY, and similar high-volatility majors or indices.
Script Type:
indicator() – Alerts & Visualization Only
No built-in order placement
All “orders” are emitted as alerts for your external bot or manual handling
Strategy Type:
Volatility-Adaptive Trend Following + Impulse Detection
using Renko-like structure and multi-layer Laguerre filters.
Repainting:
Designed to be non-repainting on closed candles.
The underlying Risk Management engine is built around previous-bar data (close , high , low ) for execution-critical logic.
Intrabar values can move while the bar is forming (normal for any advanced signal), but once a bar closes, the alert logic is stable.
Recommended Alert Settings:
Condition: one of the built-in signals (see section 3.B)
Options: “Once Per Bar Close” is strongly recommended for automation
Message: JSON, CSV, or simple tokens – whatever your webhook / relay expects
3. Detailed Report: How the Alerts Edition Works
A. Relationship to the Strategy Version
The Alerts Edition shares the same internal logic as the strategy version:
Same Adaptive Lookback and volatility normalization
Same Range and Close Range construction
Same Renko Brick Emulator and directional memory (renkoDir)
Same Fib structures, Laguerre stack, K-Means SuperTrend, and Baseline signals (B1, B2)
Same Risk Management Engine and layered exits
In the strategy script, these signals are wired into strategy.entry, strategy.exit, and strategy.close.
In the alerts script:
We still compute the final entry/exit signals (Fin, CloseEmAll, TakeProfit1Plot, etc.)
Instead of placing trades, we:
Plot them for visual inspection
Expose them via alertcondition(...) so that TradingView can fire alerts.
This ensures that:
If you use the same settings on the same symbol/timeframe, the Alerts Edition and Strategy Edition agree on where entries and exits occur.
(Subject only to normal intrabar vs. bar-close differences.)
B. Signals & Alert Conditions
The alerts script focuses on discrete, automation-friendly events.
Internally, the main signals are:
Fin – Final entry decision from the RM engine
CloseEmAll – RM-driven “hard close” signal (for full-position exits)
TakeProfit1Plot / 2Plot / 3Plot – One-time event markers when each TP stage is hit
On the chart (in the separate indicator pane), you get:
plot(Fin) – where:
+2 = Long Entry event
-2 = Short Entry event
plot(CloseEmAll) – where:
+1 = “Close Long” event
-1 = “Close Short” event
plot(TP1/TP2/TP3) (if Staged TP is enabled) – integer tags for TP hits:
+1 / +2 / +3 = TP1 / TP2 / TP3 for Longs
-1 / -2 / -3 = TP1 / TP2 / TP3 for Shorts
The corresponding alertconditions are:
Long Entry
alertcondition(Fin == 2, title="Long Entry", message="Long Entry Triggered")
Fire this to open/scale a long position in your bot.
Short Entry
alertcondition(Fin == -2, title="Short Entry", message="Short Entry Triggered")
Fire this to open/scale a short position.
Close Long
alertcondition(CloseEmAll == 1, title="Close Long", message="Close Long Triggered")
Fire this to fully exit a long position.
Close Short
alertcondition(CloseEmAll == -1, title="Close Short", message="Close Short Triggered")
Fire this to fully exit a short position.
TP 1 Hit
alertcondition(TakeProfit1Plot != 0, title="TP 1 Hit", message="TP 1 Level Reached")
First staged take profit hit (either long or short). Your bot can interpret the direction based on position state or message tags.
TP 2 Hit
alertcondition(TakeProfit2Plot != 0, title="TP 2 Hit", message="TP 2 Level Reached")
TP 3 Hit
alertcondition(TakeProfit3Plot != 0, title="TP 3 Hit", message="TP 3 Level Reached")
Together, these give you a complete trade lifecycle:
Open Long / Short
Optionally scale out via TP1/TP2/TP3
Close remaining via Close Long / Close Short
All while the Risk Management Engine enforces the same logic as the strategy version.
C. Using This Script for Automation
This Alerts Edition is designed for:
Webhook-based bots
Execution relays (e.g., your own Lynx-Relay-style engine)
Dedicated external trade managers
Typical setup flow:
Add the script to your chart
Same symbol, timeframe, and settings you use in the Strategy Edition backtests.
Configure Inputs:
Longs / Shorts enabled
Risk Management toggles (SL, TS, Staged TP, AATS, RSIS)
Weekend filter (if you do not want weekend trades)
RBR-specific knobs (Adaptive Lookback, Brick type, ATR vs Standard Brick, etc.)
Create Alerts for Each Event Type You Need:
Long Entry
Short Entry
Close Long
Close Short
TP1 / TP2 / TP3 (optional, if your bot handles partial closes)
For each:
Condition: the corresponding alertcondition
Option: “Once Per Bar Close” is strongly recommended
Message:
You can use structured JSON or a simple token set like:
{"side":"long","event":"entry","symbol":"{{ticker}}","time":"{{timenow}}"}
or a simpler text for manual trading like:
LONG ENTRY | {{ticker}} | {{interval}}
Wire Up Your Bot / Relay:
Point TradingView’s webhook URL to your execution engine
Parse the messages and map them into:
Exchange
Symbol
Side (long/short)
Action (open/close/partial)
Size and risk model (this script does not position-size for you; it only signals when, not how much.)
Because the alerts come from a non-repainting, RM-backed engine that you’ve already validated via the Strategy Edition, you get a much cleaner automation pipeline.
D. Repainting Protection (Alerts Edition)
The same protections as the Strategy Edition apply here:
Execution-critical logic (trailing stop, TP triggers, SL, RM state changes) uses previous bar OHLC:
open , high , low , close
No security() with lookahead or future-bar dependencies.
This means:
Alerts are designed to fire on states that would have been visible at bar close, not on hypothetical “future history.”
Important practical note:
Intrabar: While a bar is forming, internal conditions can oscillate.
Bar Close: With “Once Per Bar Close” alerts, the fired signal corresponds to the final state of the engine for that candle, matching your Strategy Edition expectations.
4. For Developers & Modders
You can treat this Alerts script as an ”RM + Alert Framework” and inject any signal logic you want.
Where to plug in:
Find the section:
// BASELINE & SIGNAL GENERATION
You’ll see how B1 and B2 are built from the RBR stack and then combined:
baseSig = B2
altSig = B1
finalSig = sigSwap ? baseSig : altSig
To use your own logic:
Replace or wrap the code that sets baseSig / altSig with your own conditions:
e.g., RSI, MACD, Heikin Ashi filters, candle patterns, volume filters, etc.
Make sure your final decision is still:
2 → Long / Buy signal
-2 → Short / Sell signal
0 → No trade
finalSig is then passed into the RM engine and eventually becomes Fin, which:
Drives the Long/Short Entry alerts
Interacts with the RM state machine to integrate properly with AATS, SL, TS, TP, etc.
Because this script already exposes alertconditions for key lifecycle events, you don’t need to re-wire alerts each time — just ensure your logic feeds into finalSig correctly.
This lets you use the Signal Lynx Risk Management Engine + Alerts wrapper as a drop-in chassis for your own strategies.

Weekly Open Range - TatoshiDisplays a weekly open range for both current and previous weeks. Gives users the flexibility to adjust the number of hours that the weekly open range is determined by. I personally use the first 3 hours, but play around with it.
A GOAT of a indicator, allows the user to easily set their bias for the week and extremely simple to build a strategy around.
A+ Model - Cave EducationHere is a comprehensive and detailed explanation of the "A+ Model - Cave Education" Pine Script code.
This script is a sophisticated technical analysis tool designed for TradingView. It assists traders in identifying specific institutional time windows, price ranges (sessions), and "Macro" volatility periods based on the ICT (Inner Circle Trader) or similar time-based trading concepts.
Below is the breakdown of how the code functions, organized by its logic sections.
1. General Overview
The script is an overlay indicator (it sits directly on the price chart). Its primary purpose is to:
Highlight a specific trading session (The "A+ Box") and mark its High/Low.
Mark key institutional times (07:00 NY and 09:30 NY Open).
Identify "Macro" windows (specific 20-minute periods where algorithms are active) and draw dynamic ranges around them based on volatility (ATR).
Project future times onto the chart to help the trader prepare for the next day.
2. Settings & Inputs (User Configuration)
The code begins by defining a vast array of user inputs, grouped for better usability:
General Time & Box: Allows the user to define the "A+ Session" time (default 20:00-00:00) and the Time Zone (UTC-5/New York). It also handles the visual style (colors) of the session box.
Visibility: A crucial performance and visual clutter setting. boxDays limits how far back the A+ boxes and time lines are drawn (default 14 days). Macros are strictly limited to the current week to prevent chart lagging.
Line & Text Controls: Every visual element (A+ lines, NY markers, Macros) has toggles (input.bool) to show/hide the lines or the text labels separately.
Macro Settings: Defines the time windows for three separate macros and an ATR Multiplier. The ATR multiplier determines how wide the channel lines are drawn around the macro price action.
3. Logic Breakdown by Section
Section 1: The "A+ Draw" Box (Session Range)
This is the core of the A+ Model.
Logic: The script checks if the current bar is within the user-defined sessionTime.
Box Creation:
When the session starts, it initializes a new Box (box.new).
Throughout the session, it continuously updates the Box's Top (Highest High) and Bottom (Lowest Low) to encompass the full range of that time period.
Extension Lines (Support/Resistance):
Once the session ends, the script draws two horizontal lines: one from the Session High and one from the Session Low.
Smart Break Logic: These lines are active (highActive, lowActive). They extend to the right until the price breaks them (High line is broken by a higher price, Low line by a lower price). This helps traders see if the session range is being respected or broken later in the day.
Section 2: Time Lines (NY Midnight & Open)
This section marks vertical reference points.
It checks for specific times: 07:00 and 09:30 (in the user's timezone).
If the current bar matches these times, it draws a vertical line (line.new) covering the High/Low of that bar and places a label (e.g., "NY." or "09:30") above it.
This helps the trader orient themselves regarding the New York session Open and the "Killzone" start.
Section 3: Macros (Volatility Windows)
This is the most complex calculation in the script.
Definition: Macros are specific time windows (e.g., 09:50–10:10) where price delivery is often accelerated.
Visibility Rule: To keep the script fast, this only runs if isCurrentWeek is true.
ATR Offset: The script calculates the Average True Range (ATR). It uses this to create a "channel" around the price.
Drawing Logic:
When a Macro time starts, the script tracks the Highest High and Lowest Low inside that specific 20-minute window.
It draws parallel horizontal lines above and below these prices.
The Twist: The lines are not drawn at the High/Low. They are offset by ATR * Multiplier. This creates a wider "zone" around the macro price action, visually indicating a volatility range.
Section 4: Future Projection (Tomorrow)
This feature is for planning ahead.
It runs only on the last bar of the chart (barstate.islast).
It calculates the timestamps for the next occurrence of the key times (07:00, 09:30, and all three Macros).
It draws vertical lines into the future (empty space on the right of the chart).
Benefit: The trader can see exactly where 09:30 or the next Macro will occur on the timeline before the candles even print.
4. Helper Functions
The code uses custom functions to keep the logic clean:
f_drawFuture(...): A standardized function to draw the future vertical lines and labels so the code doesn't have to repeat itself for every single time marker.
isStartTime(...) & isInTime(...): Shorthand functions to check if the current candle belongs to a specific session string (like "0950-1010").
Summary of Improvements in this Version
Compared to a standard indicator, this script is highly optimized:
Text Control: You can turn off text labels while keeping the lines (or vice versa).
Performance: It limits historical drawing (only 14 days back for boxes, only this week for macros) to prevent "Maximum Line Count" errors in Pine Script.
Visual Clarity: It uses different colors for different Macros (Blue, Red, Orange) to make them instantly distinguishable.
UK Asian Range (00:00-06:00) [TZ]UK Asian Range (00:00–06:00) is a session-range overlay indicator built for traders who use the Asian session range as a key liquidity reference for the Frankfurt and London opens. It automatically measures the highest high and lowest low formed during a user-defined “Asia session” window (default 00:00–06:00) and draws that range on the chart as a clean, persistent shaded area.
The goal is simple: make it easy to see where overnight liquidity formed, so you can judge whether price is:
Breaking cleanly out of the Asian range,
Sweeping above/below the range to grab liquidity and reversing,
Respecting the range boundaries as support/resistance as Europe comes online.
What it does
For each trading day, the script:
Detects the start of the selected Asia session window (default 00:00).
Tracks price throughout that window and continuously updates:
Asia High = highest price printed during the session
Asia Low = lowest price printed during the session
At the moment the session ends (default 06:00), it finalizes the range and draws:
A shaded Asia range area that remains on the chart,
An “Asian Range” label placed above the area,
A clean “session area” border style with no right-side edge (so it looks open and unobtrusive rather than like a fully closed box).
Repeats the process daily and keeps a configurable number of past ranges visible for context.
How it works (concept and calculation method)
The script uses session-time detection to determine whether each bar belongs to the Asia session. While the bar is inside the session window, the range is updated using simple, transparent logic:
AsiaHigh = max(AsiaHigh, bar high)
AsiaLow = min(AsiaLow, bar low)
Once the first bar outside the session appears, the session is considered complete and the script “prints” the finalized range objects. Each day’s completed range is stored and preserved so you can compare how later price action interacts with prior Asian ranges over time.
Why the Time zone input matters
Different instruments and brokers can display different “day” boundaries and session timestamps (especially when comparing indices, metals, and FX). This script includes an explicit Time zone input (default Europe/London) so your Asia range window means the same thing across symbols.
In practical terms, it reduces the common frustration where a session box aligns perfectly on one market (e.g., Gold or DAX) but appears shifted on another (e.g., GBPJPY). With the Time zone setting, 00:00–06:00 is always evaluated in the time zone you choose, rather than drifting based on symbol/exchange time settings.
How to use it
Add the indicator to your chart.
Set Time zone to your preferred reference time zone (commonly Europe/London for UK-based traders).
Keep the session at 00:00–06:00 or adjust it to your own Asia definition.
Use the Asia range as a structure tool:
Watch for sweeps above the Asia high or below the Asia low into Frankfurt/London.
Treat the boundaries as potential liquidity targets and support/resistance zones.
Compare current reactions to prior days’ ranges to build pattern recognition.
Inputs included
Time zone: the time zone used to interpret the session times.
Asia Session (HHMM–HHMM): session window (default 00:00–06:00).
Show range area (filled) and styling controls (fill and border width/colour).
Optional Mid line.
Keep last N days: how many historical Asia ranges to keep on screen.
Acknowledgment / Inspiration
This indicator was inspired by the widely used “Asian range box” session concept on Trading View, with a nod to nico948 for popularizing that workflow for many traders. This script is an original implementation built to solve a practical usability issue: adding an explicit time zone selector so the same 00:00–06:00 Asia range aligns consistently across different symbols (indices, metals, and FX) without the need to manually realign session timing.
Notes
This is a visual framework tool. It does not place trades or provide buy/sell signals by itself; it provides a consistent session reference so you can apply your own sweep, reversal, or breakout approach with clear context.

Liquidity ThermometerThis is a universal indicator that assesses market liquidity based on five key market parameters: volume, volatility, candlestick range, body size, and price momentum.
The indicator does not use open interest data and is suitable for all markets, including spot, futures, and Forex.
This indicator normalizes each metric historically and creates a composite index between 0 and 1, where higher values correspond to a stable and calm market environment, and lower values indicate periods of increased risk and potential liquidity stress.
LT generates an integral liquidity index in the range based on five normalized components:
-nVol — normalized volume, reflecting trading density and activity.
-nATR — the volatility component (ATR), inverted, as high volatility is typically associated with declining liquidity.
-nRange — the normalized candlestick range, also inverted to assess the structural narrowness of the price movement.
-nBody — the normalized candlestick body size (|close − open|), inverted to assess the balance of supply and demand.
-nMove — the normalized value of the price impulse movement (|Δclose|), reflecting short-term price spikes.
Each metric is linearly normalized over a sliding window (200 bars) using the formula:
norm(x) = (x − min) / (max − min),
where at max = min, the value is fixed at 0.5 to ensure stability.
The ALT index is calculated as a weighted combination:
ALT = 0.35 nVol + 0.20 (1 − nATR) + 0.20 (1 − nRange) + 0.15 (1 − nBody) + 0.10 (1 − nMove)
The result is further smoothed using EMA(3) to reduce micronoise.
Red Zone (MLI < 0.25) — Risk, Thin Liquidity
When the indicator falls into the red zone, it means the market is extremely volatile:
Characteristics:
Low volume — small trades have a strong impact on the price.
High volatility — candlesticks rise or fall sharply.
Wide candlestick range — the market is "breathing heavily," easily breaking price extremes.
Impulsive movements — small market shocks lead to sharp spikes.
Thin liquidity — few orders in the order book, large orders "eat up" the market.
What this means for a trader:
🔥 High risk of spikes and false breakouts.
⚠ Possible series of liquidations on leverage.
❌ It is not recommended to enter long or short positions without a filter or protection.
✅ Can be used for short scalping strategies if you know the entry point, but very carefully.
Green Zone (MLI > 0.75) — High Liquidity, Safe Zone
When the indicator rises into the green zone, it means the market is stable and balanced:
Characteristics:
High volume — the market is deep, orders are executed without a strong impact on the price.
Low volatility — candlesticks are stable, no sharp spikes.
Narrow candlestick range — price moves calmly.
Weak impulse movements — no sharp surges.
Sufficient liquidity — the market can handle large orders.
What this means for a trader:
✅ Safe zone for opening positions.
🔄 Easier to set stop-loss and take-profit orders.
💡 You can trade both up and down, the risk of sharp movements is minimal.
⚡ Under these conditions, there is a lower risk of spikes and accidental liquidations.
It does not predict price movements or guarantee results. It is an analytical tool intended for additional research into market structure.
