08-2018 Stochastic 5m [ALERT SETUP] [INDICATOR]This is an accumulation of small buy orders and a complete sell order strategy, that can be used for manual trading or for a trading bot. The strategy is based on stockastic divergences ( an indicator that I made myself and is published on my profile earlier ), and I added my personnal touch of course. Note that the bullish and bearish stochastic divergences are calculated separately and can be configured in the inputs.
To be used with a 5m timeframe, and on a flat or bullish pair.
Everyone can favorite the script, apply it to the chart, but only I can see or modify the code. If you need anything, leave a comment, thanks :D

OBV divergence hidden and regular on both bearish and bullish.OBV (on balance volume) divergence indicator with hidden and regular signal on both bearish and bullish.
CMYK VRMI◊ Introduction
This script indicates the relative movement of price x volume.
◊ Origin
Based on 'The Relative Momentum Index' by Roger Altman : February, 1993 issue of Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities magazine.
While RSI counts up and down days from close to close, the Relative Momentum Index counts up and down days from the close relative to a close x number of days ago.
This results in an RSI that is smoother. The input has been changed to the change of a smoothed close multiplied by a smoothed volume.
The polarity of VRMI indicates bearish/bullish movement.
◊ Adjustments
CMYK color theme applied.
◊ Usage
VRMI indicates the force the market moves with.

Bearish signal using Point of Control (POC) with PAC by guruThis indicator code helps traders identify potential sell opportunities using several important technical indicators:
Point of Control (POC) – This is the price level where the most volume was traded over the past several days.
Previous Day's Low – This shows the lowest price reached during the previous day.
PAC (Price Action Channel) EMA – These are two moving averages (one based on the low price and one based on the close price) that help determine if the price is trending within a certain range.
Volume SMA – This is a 3-day simple moving average (SMA) of volume, which helps filter out signals based on market activity.
What the Script Does:
Point of Control (POC):
The script looks at the last 50 days (configurable) and calculates which price level had the highest trading volume.
It then plots a red line on the chart at the POC level. This is important because it helps identify areas where there was strong market interest in the past.
Volume Moving Average:
The script calculates a 3-day SMA of volume, but it excludes the current day to avoid premature signals based on today’s trading.
The volume SMA is used to ensure there’s enough market activity (with a threshold set to 25 units) before triggering a sell signal.
Price Action Channel (PAC) EMA:
The PAC consists of two exponential moving averages (EMAs):
The PAC Low EMA: This is based on the low prices over the last 34 periods (configurable).
The PAC Close EMA: This is based on the closing prices over the last 34 periods.
These EMAs help determine if the price is trending above or below certain price levels.
Sell Signal Logic: The script checks three conditions before displaying a "Sell" signal:
Price Below POC and Previous Day’s Low:
The close price must be below both the Point of Control (POC) and the previous day's low.
Volume SMA Above 25:
The 3-day volume SMA must be greater than 25. This ensures the signal only triggers when there’s enough trading volume in the market.
Today’s Low is Above PAC EMAs:
Today's low price must be above both the PAC low EMA and the PAC close EMA. This prevents sell signals when prices are already significantly below the PAC, indicating possible exhaustion in the downtrend.
If all three conditions are met, the script will display a red "Sell" label on the chart, signaling a potential selling opportunity.
No Sell Signal if Price Reverses:
If the price crosses back above the POC or the previous day's low, the script will remove the sell signal and reset for a new opportunity.
Summary of Conditions:
For the script to display a "Sell" label:
The close price must be below the Point of Control (POC) and the previous day’s low.
The 3-day volume SMA (excluding today) must be greater than 25 units.
The low price of the current day must be above both the PAC low EMA and the PAC close EMA.
If these conditions are met, a red sell label appears on the chart as a potential signal for a short (sell) trade.

ICT Unicorn Model [Kodexius]ICT Unicorn Model is a market structure and imbalance confluence tool that automatically detects high probability “Unicorn” setups by combining three key elements into a single, clean script:
-A first, clean break of that swing level (displacement style break)
-A Fair Value Gap that overlaps a breaker candle body range
Instead of plotting every pivot or every imbalance independently, the script waits for a specific sequence: price establishes a valid swing, breaks that swing for the first time, and prints a setup only when the resulting context aligns with a valid, volatility filtered FVG and a clearly defined breaker range.
Each detected setup is drawn directly on the chart with labeled zones (Breaker and FVG) and is then actively monitored. If price violates the breaker boundary based on your chosen invalidation basis (Close or Wick), the setup is marked inactive and can optionally be removed to keep the chart clean.
This indicator is designed for traders who work with ICT style concepts such as liquidity runs, displacement, breaker blocks, and imbalance reversion, and who want a structured, rules based visualization rather than discretionary drawing.
🔹 Features
🔸 Fair Value Gap Detection With Volatility Filtering
Bullish and bearish FVGs are detected using classic three candle imbalance logic. To avoid low quality gaps during compression, the script applies an ATR based minimum size filter using the “FVG Min Size (ATR Multiplier)” input. Only gaps larger than ATR * threshold are considered valid.
🔸 First Break Validation (Clean Break Logic)
A key part of the model is identifying a “first break” of a swing level. The script checks whether the swing price has already been invalidated between the swing bar and the current bar. If it has, the swing is ignored. This helps reduce repeated signals and focuses on fresh structural breaks.
🔸 Breaker and FVG Confluence With Overlap Requirement
After a valid break occurs, the script defines a breaker range using the body of the swing candle (open and close). A setup is only created if this breaker body range overlaps the detected FVG price range. This overlap requirement is what filters many “almost” conditions and keeps signals more selective.
Bullish Unicorn:
Bearish Unicorn:
🔸 Configurable Invalidation Basis (Close or Wick)
You can choose how a setup fails:
-Close: invalidation requires a candle close beyond the breaker boundary
-Wick: invalidation occurs as soon as any wick crosses beyond the breaker boundary
This allows the tool to adapt to different trading styles, from conservative confirmation to more sensitive risk control.
🔸 Automatic Cleanup of Failed Setups
If “Delete Invalidated Setups” is enabled, the script removes the breaker box, FVG box, and label as soon as the setup is invalidated. If disabled, the zones remain visible for review while the setup is marked inactive internally.
🔸 Clear Chart Visuals
Each setup plots:
-A labeled Breaker zone box
-A labeled FVG zone box
-A directional Unicorn label (Bull or Bear) that updates position as the chart advances
Colors for bullish and bearish structures are fully configurable.
🔸 Alert Conditions
Two alert conditions are provided:
-Bullish Unicorn Setup Detected
-Bearish Unicorn Setup Detected
Alerts trigger only on the bar a new setup is created.
🔹 Calculations
This section summarizes the main computations used internally. The goal here is to explain the model mechanics rather than reproduce every implementation detail.
1. Swing Detection (Pivot High / Pivot Low)
Swing levels are detected using a symmetric pivot definition with “Swing Length” bars on both sides:
float ph = ta.pivothigh(high, swingLength, swingLength)
float pl = ta.pivotlow(low, swingLength, swingLength)
When a pivot is confirmed, its price and originating bar index are stored:
-Swing High: price = pivot high, isHigh = true
-Swing Low: price = pivot low, isHigh = false
The script keeps a limited history (most recent swings) to stay efficient.
2. Fair Value Gap Detection
FVGs use the classic three candle displacement imbalance:
Bullish FVG condition
bool isBullFVG = high < low
Bullish gap range is defined as:
-Top = low
-Bottom = high
Bearish FVG condition
bool isBearFVG = low > high
Bearish gap range is defined as:
-Top = low
-Bottom = high
3. ATR Based Minimum Gap Filter
ATR is computed (length 14), then the gap size is compared against a user threshold:
float atr = ta.atr(14)
bool validBullFVG = isBullFVG and (bullFvgTop - bullFvgBot) > (atr * fvgThreshold)
bool validBearFVG = isBearFVG and (bearFvgTop - bearFvgBot) > (atr * fvgThreshold)
This prevents very small imbalances from generating setups in low volatility conditions.
4. “First Break” Check Using Level Invalidation Scan
Before accepting a swing break, the script scans forward from the swing bar to the current bar to confirm the level has not already been breached. The scan can be based on wick or close:
-Wick mode: uses high or low
-Close mode: uses close
Conceptually:
priceToCheck = mode == "Wick" ? (checkBelow ? low : high) : close
If a prior breach is found, the swing is treated as already invalidated and is ignored for setup creation.
5. Break Of Structure Condition
Bullish break requirement
A bullish setup requires breaking a stored swing high with bullish body intent:
-close > swingHighPrice
-open < close
Bearish break requirement
A bearish setup requires breaking a stored swing low with bearish body intent:
-close < swingLowPrice
-open > close
An additional proximity filter is applied in the bearish branch to reduce weak or overly extended breaks by requiring the prior close to be reasonably near the swing level.
6. Breaker Range Construction
Once a qualifying swing is found, the breaker range is derived from the body of the swing candle (the candle at the swing bar index). The body boundaries are:
float breakerTop = math.max(bOpen, bClose)
float breakerBot = math.min(bOpen, bClose)
This models the breaker as the candle body range rather than full wick range, which typically produces more practical invalidation boundaries.
7. Overlap Test Between Breaker and FVG
A setup is only created if the breaker body overlaps the FVG zone. Conceptually the script rejects cases where one range is fully above or fully below the other:
-If there is no overlap, no setup is created
-If overlap exists, the Unicorn setup is valid
8. Active Monitoring and Invalidation
Each setup remains active until invalidated. Invalidation is evaluated every bar using your selected basis:
-Close basis: compares close to breaker boundary
-Wick basis: compares high or low to breaker boundary
Bullish invalidation
Setup fails if price crosses below breaker bottom.
Bearish invalidation
Setup fails if price crosses above breaker top.
If deletion is enabled, all drawings related to that setup are removed immediately on invalidation.
9. Drawing Updates and Object Lifecycle
Breaker and FVG boxes are extended to the right while the setup is active to keep zones visible into the near future. The Unicorn label is also repositioned as new bars print so the most recent context stays readable.
TuxAlgo Plus a SMC and Trap Toolkit V0.98r1 by McTogaThe “TuxAlgo Plus” script is a powerful, standalone, conceptual open-source project and self-sufficient “smart money toolkit” with automatic trap detection (SMT), liquidity grabs, FVG confluence, and complete bot setup signals for TV charts in the “H1 to H6” time frame and daily charts.
The script is used to improve SMC/trap analyses, i.e., the structure and visualization logic for TradingView charts have been expanded in the “TuxAlgo++” project in line with Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and Smart Money Traps (SMT).
The SMT block (“Smart Money Traps”) supplements classic smart money concepts with:
1. Detection of bull traps (short setups) and bear traps (long setups)
2. Display of trap boxes in the chart (liquidity grab areas)
3. A bot setup box (table) with ready-made entry/SL/TP levels:
as well as age in bars & days and “Valid until ~X d” (remaining term)
SMT / bot setup only run on the following timeframes:
- H1, H2, H3, H4, H6 This means that traps, labels, and the bot setup box are only displayed on these timeframes
Trap definition “Bull Trap (Short Setup)”:
- Valid swing high
- Swing trend bullish
- High (Wick) pierces above the swing high (Liquidity Grab)
- Close falls back below the swing high (false breakout)
-> Result: Short setup (bull trap), marked in orange
Trap definition “Bear Trap (long setup)”:
- Valid swing low
- Swing trend bearish
- Low (wick) pierces below the swing low (liquidity grab)
- Close rises above the swing low again (false breakout)
-> Result: Long setup (bear trap), marked in blue
Entry / SL / TP calculation
A price range is taken for each trap:
Bull trap (short):
- Range =
- Entry = point within this range:
Entry = hiBT - (hiBT - loBT) * TrapEntryRatio (0..1)
-> 0.0 = at the Wick extreme, 0.5 = middle, 1.0 = at the Swing level
- SL = Wick extreme (upper edge of the trap)
- Risk = |Entry - SL|
- TP1 = Entry - R1 * Risk
- TP2 = Entry - R2 * Risk
Bear Trap (Long):
- Range =
- Entry analogous within the range according to TrapEntryRatio
- SL = wick bottom (lower edge of the trap)
- Risk = |Entry - SL|
- TP1 = Entry + R1 * Risk
- TP2 = Entry + R2 * Risk
R1 / R2 correspond to the inputs:
- botRR1Input = TP1 Risk/Reward (e.g., 1.5R)
- botRR2Input = TP2 Risk/Reward (e.g., 3.0R)
Age & Validity
Each trap stores:
- lastTrapBarIndex -> last bar of the trap
- Age in bars -> bar_index - lastTrapBarIndex
- Age in days (~d) -> AgeBars * BarDurationInDays (depending on TF)
Input: trapMaxAgeBars determines how long a trap is valid.
The bot setup box is only displayed if:
- a trap is present,
- AgeBars <= trapMaxAgeBars,
- SMT + Box + SMC timeframe are active.
Color logic (color blind friendly):
- Blue (accentBlue) = fresh traps (Age <= 1/3 MaxAge)
- Orange (accentOrange) = medium age
- Violet (accentPurple) = old, but still within MaxAge
- Gray (accentGray) = expired (> MaxAge)
The box also shows “Valid until ~X d” as the remaining term.
Day/Night Mode & Colors
- chart.bg_color is used to detect dark or light mode.
- Text/background colors adjust (light/dark).
- Accent colors (blue/orange/purple/gray) are suitable for red/green color blindness.
- Trap labels in the chart:
- Bull trap label = orange (short setup)
- Bear trap label = blue (long setup)
- Text color depends on chart mode (dark/light)
Typical workflow (example):
1. Select a suitable symbol & SMC timeframe (e.g., H4 or H6).
2. Wait for a bull trap (short) or bear trap (long).
3. Read in the bot setup box:
- Direction (long/short)
- Entry, SL, TP1, TP2
- Age & “Valid until ~X d”
4. These values can be used as a template for manual trading or external bot/order systems.
5. Position size & leverage must always be calculated separately in your own risk management
(e.g., 2% rule). This script does not calculate position sizes.

## Pro Tips
### 1. The Liquidity Sweep is Gold
When you see the **LIQ** arrow after price wicks below 0.886 and reclaims 0.786, this is often the best entry. Stops have been hunted, weak hands are out, and smart money is entering.
### 2. Don't Fight the HTF Trend
If the 4H is bearish, don't take long signals on the 15m just because the score is high. Always align with the bigger picture.
### 3. Wait for "IN ZONE"
Patience pays. The best setups come when price actually pulls back to the golden zone. Chasing breakouts leads to poor R:R.
### 4. Score 6+ is the Minimum
Scores of 4-5 can work, but your win rate will be significantly higher waiting for 6+. Scores of 8+ are rare but highly reliable.
### 5. Use Multiple Timeframes
Check the setup on your trading timeframe AND one timeframe higher. If both show bullish structure with good scores, confidence is higher.
### 6. Respect the Stop Loss
The SL is placed below the liquidity zone for a reason. If price closes below it, the setup is invalidated. Don't move your stop.

## What This Indicator Does
The **Unmitigated MTF High Low v2.0** tracks unmitigated (untouch) high and low levels across multiple timeframes, helping you identify key support and resistance zones that the market hasn't revisited yet. Think of it as a sophisticated memory system for price action - it remembers where price has been, and more importantly, where it *hasn't been back to*.
### Why "Unmitigated" Matters
In futures trading, especially on instruments like NQ and ES, the market has a tendency to revisit levels where liquidity was left behind. An "unmitigated" level is one that hasn't been touched since it was formed. These levels often act as magnets for price, and understanding their age and proximity gives you a significant edge in:
- **Entry timing** - Waiting for price to approach tested levels
- **Exit planning** - Taking profits before ancient resistance/support
- **Risk management** - Avoiding entries when approaching multiple old levels
- **Liquidity mapping** - Visualizing where orders likely cluster
---
## Core Concepts
### 1. **Sessions & Age**
The indicator uses **New York trading sessions** (6:00 PM to 5:59 PM NY time) as the primary time measurement. This aligns with how futures markets naturally segment their activity.
**Age Categories:**
- 🟢 **New (0-1 sessions)** - Fresh levels, recently formed
- 🟡 **Medium (2-3 sessions)** - Tested by time, gaining significance
- 🔴 **Old (4-6 sessions)** - Highly significant, survived multiple days
- 🟣 **Ancient (7+ sessions)** - Extreme significance, major support/resistance
The longer a level remains unmitigated, the more significant it becomes. Think of it like compound interest - time adds weight to these zones.
### 2. **Multi-Timeframe Tracking**
You can set the indicator to track high/low levels from any timeframe (default is 15 minutes). This means you're watching for unmitigated 15-minute highs and lows while trading on, say, a 1-minute or 5-minute chart.
**Why this matters:**
- Higher timeframe levels have more weight
- You can see multiple timeframe structure simultaneously
- Helps you avoid fighting larger timeframe momentum
### 3. **Mitigation**
A level becomes "mitigated" (deactivated) when price touches it:
- **High levels** are mitigated when price reaches or exceeds them
- **Low levels** are mitigated when price reaches or goes below them
Once mitigated, the level disappears from view. The indicator only shows you the untouch levels that still matter.

**Reading the Table:**
- **Level Column**: Number of arrows indicates position (1-5), color shows age
- **Price**: The actual price level
- **Points**: Distance from current price (+ for highs, - for lows)
- **Age**: Number of full sessions since creation
- **%**: Percentage distance from current price
- **⚠️**: Proximity alert - price is within threshold distance
- **Status Row**: Shows timeframe, direction (🟢 bullish/🔴 bearish), tunnel width (Δ), and Strat pattern
### 📈 Visual Elements on Chart
**1. Level Lines**
- Horizontal lines showing each unmitigated level
- **Color-coded by age**: Bright colors = new, darker = older, deep purple/teal = ancient
- **Line style**: Customizable (solid, dashed, dotted)
- Automatically turn **yellow** when price gets close (proximity alert)
**2. Price Labels**
- Show the exact price and age: "21,450.25 (8d)"
- Fixed at small size for clean readability
- Positioned with configurable offset from current bar
**3. Bands (Optional)**
- Shaded zones between pairs of unmitigated levels
- Default: Between 1st and 2nd levels (the "tunnel")
- Can switch to 1st-3rd, 2nd-3rd, or disable entirely
- **Upper band** (pink/maroon) - Between unmitigated highs
- **Lower band** (blue/teal) - Between unmitigated lows
- These represent the "no man's land" or consolidation zones

## The Cave Diving Framework
This indicator is designed around the **Cave Diving Trading Framework** - a psychological and technical approach that maps cave diving safety protocols to futures trading risk management.
### 🤿 The Core Metaphor
**Cave diving has clear danger zones based on depth and overhead environment. Your trading should too.**
#### Shallow Water (New Levels, 0-1 Sessions)
- **Light**: Bright colors (bright red highs, bright green lows)
- **Psychology**: Fresh territory, recently tested
- **Trading**: Be aware but not overly concerned
- **Cave Diving Parallel**: You can see the surface, easy exit
#### Penetration Depth (Medium Levels, 2-3 Sessions)
- **Light**: Medium intensity colors
- **Psychology**: Building significance, market memory forming
- **Trading**: Start respecting these levels for entries/exits
- **Cave Diving Parallel**: Deeper in, need to track your line back
#### Deep Dive Zone (Old Levels, 4-6 Sessions)
- **Light**: Dark colors (deep maroon, dark blue)
- **Psychology**: Highly tested support/resistance
- **Trading**: Major decision points, plan accordingly
- **Cave Diving Parallel**: Significant overhead, careful navigation required
#### Overhead Environment (Ancient Levels, 7+ Sessions)
- **Light**: Very dark, purple/deep teal
- **Psychology**: Extreme caution required, major liquidity zones
- **Trading**: These are your "turn back" signals - don't fight ancient levels
- **Cave Diving Parallel**: Maximum danger, no room for error
### 🎯 The Proximity Alert System
Just like a cave diver's depth gauge that warns at critical thresholds, the proximity alerts (⚠️) tell you when you're entering a danger zone. When price gets within your configured threshold (default 5 points), the indicator:
- Highlights the level in **yellow** on the chart
- Shows **⚠️** in the table
- Signals: "You're entering a high-significance zone - adjust your position accordingly"
This prevents the trading equivalent of going deeper into a cave without checking your air supply.

## How to Use It for Trading
### 🎯 Entry Strategies
**1. The "Bounce Setup" (Mean Reversion)**
- Wait for price to approach an old or ancient unmitigated level
- Look for confluence: multiple levels nearby, bands narrowing
- Enter when price shows rejection (reversal candle patterns)
- **Example**: Price drops to a 6-session-old low, shows bullish engulfing → Long entry
**2. The "Break and Retest" (Trend Following)**
- Wait for price to break through an unmitigated level (mitigates it)
- Enter on the retest of the newly broken level
- **Example**: Price breaks above 4-session-old high → Wait for pullback to that level → Long entry
**3. The "Tunnel Trade" (Range Trading)**
- When bands are active, trade the range between 1st-2nd levels
- Short near upper band resistance, long near lower band support
- Exit at opposite side or when bands break
### 🚨 Risk Management Rules
**The Ancient Level Rule**
> Never fight ancient levels (7+ sessions). If you're long and approaching an ancient high, take profits. If you're short and approaching an ancient low, take profits.
These levels have survived a full trading week without being touched - there's likely significant liquidity and institutional interest there.
**The Proximity Exit Rule**
> When you see ⚠️ proximity alerts on multiple levels above/below your position, tighten stops or scale out.
This is your "overhead environment" warning. You're in dangerous territory.
**The New Level Filter**
> Be cautious taking positions based solely on new levels (0-1 sessions). Wait for them to age or combine with other confluence.
Fresh levels haven't been tested by time. They're like unconfirmed support/resistance.
### 📊 Reading Market Structure
**Bullish Structure (🟢 in status row)**
- Unmitigated lows are aging and holding
- Price respecting the lower band
- Old lows below acting as strong support
- **Bias**: Look for long entries at lower levels
**Bearish Structure (🔴 in status row)**
- Unmitigated highs are aging and holding
- Price respecting the upper band
- Old highs above acting as strong resistance
- **Bias**: Look for short entries at higher levels
**The Tunnel Compression**
- When the Δ (delta) in the status row is small, levels are tight
- This often precedes a breakout
- **Trading**: Wait for breakout direction, then trade the break
### 🔄 Strat Integration
The indicator shows Strat patterns in the status row:
- **1** - Inside bar (consolidation)
- **2U** - Broke high only (bullish)
- **2D** - Broke low only (bearish)
- **3** - Broke both (wide range, volatility)
Use these with the unmitigated levels:
- **2U near old high** → Potential resistance, watch for rejection
- **2D near old low** → Potential support, watch for bounce
- **3 pattern** → High volatility, respect wider stops

## Best Practices
### 🎯 Position Management
**1. Scaling In Near Old Levels**
```
Price approaching 5-session-old low:
- First position: 30% size at proximity alert (⚠️)
- Second position: 40% size at exact level
- Third position: 30% size if it shows strong rejection
```
**2. Scaling Out Near Ancient Levels**
```
Holding long position, approaching 8-session-old high:
- Exit 50% at proximity alert (⚠️)
- Exit 30% at exact level
- Trail stop on remaining 20%
```
### 🧠 Trading Psychology Integration
Drawing from principles in *The Mountain Is You*, this indicator helps you:
**1. Recognize Self-Sabotage Patterns**
- **The Premature Entry**: Entering before price reaches your planned level
- **Solution**: Set alerts at unmitigated levels, wait for proximity warnings
- **The Profit-Taking Problem**: Exiting too early from fear
- **Solution**: Identify the next unmitigated level and commit to holding until proximity alert
- **The Loss Holding**: Refusing to exit losing trades
- **Solution**: When price breaks through and mitigates your entry level, it's telling you the structure changed
**2. Building Better Habits**
The color-coded age system trains your brain to:
- Respect levels that have proven themselves over time
- Distinguish between noise (new levels) and structure (old levels)
- Make decisions based on objective data, not fear or greed
**3. Emotional Regulation**
The proximity alerts serve as:
- **Circuit breakers** - Forcing you to re-evaluate before dangerous zones
- **Permission to act** - Giving you objective signals to exit without second-guessing
- **Validation** - Confirming when you're in alignment with market structure
### 📝 Pre-Market Routine
**Daily Setup Checklist:**
1. ✅ Identify the 3 nearest unmitigated highs above current price
2. ✅ Identify the 3 nearest unmitigated lows below current price
3. ✅ Note which are ancient (7+) - these are your "no-go" zones
4. ✅ Check the tunnel width (Δ in status row) - tight or wide?
5. ✅ Set alerts at the 1st high and 1st low for proximity warnings
6. ✅ Plan: "If we go up, I exit at ___. If we go down, I enter at ___."
### 🔄 Timeframe Confluence
**Multi-Timeframe Strategy:**
Run the indicator on **three instances**:
- **15-minute** (short-term structure)
- **1-hour** (intermediate structure)
- **4-hour** (major structure)
**Strong Setup**: When all three timeframes show unmitigated levels converging at the same price zone.
**Example:**
- 15m: Old low at 21,400
- 1H: Ancient low at 21,398
- 4H: Ancient low at 21,395
- **Result**: 21,395-21,400 is a monster support zone
### ⚠️ What This Indicator Doesn't Do
**Not a Crystal Ball**
- It doesn't predict where price will go
- It shows you where price *hasn't been* and how long it's been avoided
- The trading decisions are still yours
**Not an Entry Signal Generator**
- It provides context and structure
- You need to combine it with your entry methodology (price action, indicators, order flow, etc.)
**Not Foolproof**
- Ancient levels get broken
- Proximity alerts can trigger early in strong trends
- The market doesn't "owe" you a reversal at any level
---
## Common Scenarios
### Scenario 1: "Level Cluster Ahead"
**Situation**: You're long at 21,400. The table shows:
- 1st High: 21,425 (2 sessions old)
- 2nd High: 21,428 (3 sessions old)
- 3rd High: 21,435 (6 sessions old)
**Interpretation**: There's a resistance cluster just 25-35 points away. The 6-session-old level is particularly significant.
**Action**:
- Set first profit target at 21,420 (before the cluster)
- Set second target at 21,426 (between 1st and 2nd)
- Trail remaining position, but be ready to exit on rejection at 21,435
**Cave Diving Analogy**: You're approaching an overhead section with limited clearance. Lighten your load (reduce position) before entering.
---
### Scenario 2: "Ancient Level Approaches"
**Situation**: The market is grinding higher. You see ⚠️ appear next to a 9-session-old high at 21,500.
**Interpretation**: This level has survived over a week without being touched. Massive potential liquidity zone.
**Action**:
- If long, this is your absolute exit zone. Take profits before or at level.
- If looking to short, wait for clear rejection (price taps and reverses)
- Don't try to buy the breakout until it clearly breaks and retests
**Cave Diving Analogy**: Your dive computer is beeping - you've reached your planned turn-back depth. No matter how interesting it looks ahead, honor your plan.
---
### Scenario 3: "Mitigated Levels Create New Structure"
**Situation**: Price breaks and mitigates the 1st High. The previous 2nd High becomes the new 1st High.
**Interpretation**: The structure just shifted. What was the 2nd level is now most relevant.
**Action**:
- Watch how price reacts to the newly-mitigated level
- If it holds below (acts as resistance), bearish
- If it reclaims and holds above (acts as support), bullish
- The NEW 1st High is your next target/resistance
**Cave Diving Analogy**: You've passed through a restriction - the cave layout ahead is different now. Update your mental map.
---
### Scenario 4: "Tight Tunnel, Upcoming Breakout"
**Situation**: The Δ in the status row shows 3.25 points (very tight). Bands are converging.
**Interpretation**: Price is consolidating between very close unmitigated levels. Breakout likely.
**Action**:
- Don't try to predict direction
- Set alerts above 1st High and below 1st Low
- When break occurs, trade the retest
- Expect volatility - use wider stops
**Cave Diving Analogy**: You're in a narrow passage. Movement will be sudden and directional once it starts.
---
### Scenario 5: "Imbalanced Structure"
**Situation**: The statistics row shows "📊 22↑ / 7↓"
**Interpretation**: There are many more unmitigated highs than lows. This suggests:
- Price has been declining (hitting lows, leaving highs behind)
- Potential bullish reversal zone (lots of overhead supply mitigated)
- Or continued bearish structure (resistance everywhere above)
**Action**:
- Look at the age of those 22 highs
- If mostly new (0-2 sessions): Just a recent downmove, not significant yet
- If many old/ancient: Strong overhead resistance, be cautious on longs
- Compare to price action: Is price respecting the remaining lows?
**Cave Diving Analogy**: You've swam deeper than your starting point - most of your markers are above you now. Are you planning the ascent or going deeper?
---
## Final Thoughts: The Philosophy
This indicator is built on a simple but powerful principle: **The market has memory, and that memory has weight.**
Every unmitigated level represents:
- Liquidity left behind
- Orders waiting to be filled
- Institutional interest potentially parked
- Psychological significance for participants
The longer a level remains unmitigated, the more "charged" it becomes. When price finally revisits it, something significant usually happens - either a strong reversal or a definitive break.
Your job as a trader isn't to predict which outcome will occur. Your job is to:
1. **Recognize** when you're approaching these charged zones
2. **Respect** them by adjusting position size and risk
3. **React** appropriately based on how price behaves at them
4. **Remember** that ancient levels (like ancient wisdom) deserve extra reverence
The Cave Diving Framework embedded in this indicator serves as a constant reminder: Trading, like cave diving, requires rigorous respect for environmental hazards, meticulous planning, and the discipline to turn back when your limits are reached.
**Every proximity alert is the market asking you**: *"Do you really want to go deeper?"*
Sometimes the answer is yes - when your setup, confluence, and risk management all align.
Often, the answer should be no - and that's the trader avoiding the accident that would have happened to the gambler.
