Daytrade Forex Scalper TwinPulse Auction Timer IndicatorWhat this indicator is
TwinPulse Auction Timer is a multi component execution aid designed for liquid markets. It looks for two families of opportunities
Breakouts that leave a compression area after a fresh sweep
Reversals that trigger after a sweep with strong wick polarity
It does not try to predict future prices. It measures present auction conditions with transparent rules and shows you when those conditions align. You get a simple table that says LONG SHORT or WAIT, optional session shading, clean entry and exit level visuals, and alerts you can wire to your workflow.
Why it is different
Most tools show a single signal. TwinPulse combines several independent signals into an Edge Score that you can tune. The components are
• Pulse. A signed measure of wick asymmetry with candle body direction
• Compression. Current true range compared with an average range
• Sweep timer. Bars elapsed since the most recent sweep of a prior high or low
• Bias. Direction of a higher timeframe candle
• Regime. Efficiency ratio and the relation of micro to macro volatility
• Location. Distance from the daily anchored VWAP
• Session. London and New York filter by time windows
Each component is visible in the inputs and in the table so you can understand why a suggestion appears. The script uses request.security() with lookahead off in all calls so it does not peek into the future. Shapes may move while a bar is open since price is still forming. They stop moving when the bar closes.
What you will see on the chart
• L and S shapes on entry bars
• An Exit shape at the price where a stop or the runner target would have been hit
• Four horizontal lines while a trade is active

TP1 at one R
TP2 at the runner target expressed in R
• Labels anchored to each line so you can instantly read Entry SL TP1 and TP2 with current values
• Optional shading during your session windows
• Optional daily VWAP line

How it works in detail
Pulse
For each bar the script measures up wick minus down wick divided by range and multiplies that by the sign of the candle body. The result is averaged with pulse_len. Positive numbers indicate aggressive buying. Negative numbers indicate aggressive selling. You control the minimum absolute value with pulse_thr.
Compression
Compression is the ratio of current range to an average range. You can choose the range basis. HL SMA uses simple high minus low smoothed by range_len. ATR uses classic True Range smoothed by atr_len. Values below comp_thr indicate a coil.
Sweeps and the timer
A sweep occurs when price trades beyond the highest high or lowest low seen in the previous sweep_len bars. A strict sweep requires a close back inside that prior range. The timer measures how many bars have elapsed since the last sweep. Breakout setups require the timer to exceed timer_thr.
Bias on a confirmation timeframe
A higher timeframe candle is read with confirm_tf. If close is above open bias is UP. If close is below open bias is DOWN. This keeps breakouts aligned with the prevailing drift.
Regime filters
Efficiency ratio measures the straight line change over the sum of absolute bar to bar changes over er_len. It rises in trendy conditions and falls in noise. Minimum efficiency is controlled by er_min.
Micro to macro volatility ratio compares a short lookback average range with a longer lookback average range using your chosen basis. For breakouts you usually want micro volatility to be near or above macro hence mvr_min. For reversals you often want micro volatility that is not overheated relative to macro hence mvr_max_rev.
VWAP distance gate
Daily anchored VWAP is rebuilt from the open of each session. The script computes the absolute distance from VWAP in units of your average range and requires that distance to exceed vwap_dist_thr when use_vwap_gate is true. This keeps entries away from the mean.
Edge Score
Each gate contributes a weight that you control. The script sums weights of the satisfied gates and divides by the sum of all weights to produce an Edge percent for long and an Edge percent for short. You can then require a minimum Edge percent using edge_min_pct. This turns the indicator into a step by step checklist that you can tune to your taste.
Using the indicator step by step
Choose markets and timeframes
The logic is designed for liquid instruments. Major currency pairs, index futures and cash index CFDs, and the most liquid crypto pairs work well. On intraday use one to fifteen minutes for signals and fifteen to sixty minutes for confirmation. On swing use one hour to one day for signals and one day for confirmation.
Decide on entry mode
Breakouts require a compression area and a sweep timer. Reversals require a strict sweep and a strong pulse. If you are unsure leave the default which allows both.
Pick a range basis
For FX and crypto HL SMA is often stable. For indices and single name equities with gaps ATR can adapt better. If results look too reactive increase the window. If results are too slow reduce it.
Tune regime filters
If you trade trend continuation raise er_min and mvr_min. If you trade counter rotation lower them and rely on the reversal path with the strict sweep condition.
Set the VWAP gate
Enabling it helps you avoid entries at the mean. Push the threshold higher on range bound days. Reduce it in strong trend days.
Table driven decision
Watch Action and the Edge percents. If the script says WAIT you can read Pulse and Compression to see what is missing. Often the best trades appear when both Edge percents are well separated and your session switch is ON.
Use the visuals
When a suggestion triggers you will see entry stop and targets. You can mirror the levels in your own workflow or use alerts.
Consider bar close
Signals are computed in real time. For a strict process you can wait until the bar closes to reduce noise.
Inputs explained with quick guidance
Setup
Signal TF chooses where the logic is computed. Leave blank to use the chart.
Confirm TF sets the higher timeframe for bias.
Session filter restricts signals to the London and New York windows you specify.
Invert flips long and short. It is useful on inverse instruments.
Logic options
Entry mode allows Breakouts Reversals or Both.
Average range basis selects HL SMA or ATR.
ATR length is used when ATR is selected.
Pulse source can be Regular OHLC or Heikin Ashi. Heikin Ashi smooths noisy series, but the script still runs on regular bars and you should publish and use it on standard candles to respect the platform guidance.
Core numeric settings
Sweep lookback controls the size of the liquidity pool targeted by the sweep condition.
Pulse window smooths the wick polarity measure.
Average range window controls your base range when you use HL SMA.
Pulse threshold sets the minimum polarity required.
Compression threshold sets the maximum current range relative to average to consider the market coiled.
Expansion timer bars sets how much time has passed since the last sweep before you allow a breakout.
Regime filters
Efficiency ratio length and minimum value keep you out of aimless drift.
Micro and Macro range lengths feed the micro to macro ratio.
Minimum micro to macro for breakouts and maximum micro to macro for reversals steer the two entry families.
VWAP gate and distance threshold keep you away from the mean.
Levels and trade management visuals
Runner target in R sets TP2 as a multiple of initial risk.
Stop distance as average range multiple sets initial risk size for the visuals.
Move stop to entry after one R touch turns on break even logic once price has traveled one risk unit.
Trail buffer as R fraction uses the last sweep as an anchor and keeps a dynamic stop at a chosen fraction of R beyond it.
Cooldown after exit prevents immediate re entries.
Edge Score
Weights for pulse compression timer bias efficiency ratio micro to macro VWAP gate and session let you align the checklist with your style.
Minimum Edge percent to suggest applies a final filter to LONG or SHORT suggestions.
UI
Table and markers switch the compact dashboard and the shapes.
TP and SL lines and labels draw and name each level.
TP1 partial label percent is printed in the TP1 label for clarity.
Session shading helps with focus.
Daily VWAP line is optional.
Alerts
The script provides alerts for Long Short Exit and for Edge percent crossing the threshold on either side. Use them to drive notifications or to sync with webhooks and your broker integration. Alerts trigger in real time and will repaint during a bar. For conservative use trigger on bar close.

Limitations and honest warnings
No indicator is perfect. TwinPulse will mark attractive conditions that do not always lead to profitable trades. During economic releases or very thin liquidity the assumptions behind compression and sweeps may fail. In strong gap environments the HL SMA basis may lag while ATR may overreact. Heikin Ashi pulse can help in choppy markets but it will lag during sharp reversals. Session times use the exchange time of your chart. If you switch symbol or exchange verify the windows.
Edge percent is not a probability of profit. It is the fraction of satisfied gates with your chosen weights. Two traders can set different weights and see different Edge readings on the same bar. That is the design. The score is a guide that helps you act with discipline.
This indicator does not place orders or manage real risk. The lines and labels show a model entry a model stop and two model targets built from the average range at entry and from recent swing points. Use them as references and not as hard rules. Always test on historical data and demo first. Past results do not guarantee anything in the future.
Credits and originality
All code in this publication is original and written for this indicator. The concept of the efficiency ratio originates from Perry Kaufman. The use of a daily anchored volume weighted average price is a standard industry tool. The specific combination of pulse from wick polarity strict sweep timing compression and the tunable Edge Score is unique to this script at the time of publication. If you reuse parts of the open source code in your own work remember to credit the author and contribute meaningful improvements.
How to read the table at a glance
Action reflects your current state.
IN LONG or IN SHORT appears while a trade is active.
LONG or SHORT appears when conditions for entry are met and the Edge threshold is satisfied.
WAIT appears when at least one gate is missing.
Session shows ON during your chosen windows.
Bias shows the color of the confirmation candle.
Pulse is the smoothed polarity number.
Comp shows current range divided by the average range. Values below one mean compression.
Edge L percent and Edge S percent show the long and short checklists as percents.
Final thoughts
Markets move because orders accumulate at certain prices and at certain times. The indicator tries to measure two things that often matter at those turning points. One is the existence of a hidden imbalance revealed by wick polarity and by sweeps of prior extremes. The other is the presence of energy stored in a coil that can release in the direction of a drift. Neither force guarantees profit. Together they can improve your selection and your timing.
Use the defaults for a few days so you learn the personality of the signals. After that adjust one group at a time. Start with the session filter and the Edge threshold. Then tune compression and the timer. Finally adjust the regime filters. Keep notes. You will learn which weights matter for your market and timeframe. The result is a process you can apply with consistency.

Trailing Stop + Profit TargetTrailing Stop + Exit Confirmation is a manual-entry tool designed to help traders visually manage trades with dynamic trailing stops and profit targets, based on ATR projections with a toggle button to reset calculations in real-time. Contains a “Short” toggle to work for short positions as well, which automatically inverses the PT and SL lines when toggled on.
Primary Calculations: Utilizes a manually adjustable entry price (default: $5 — ideal for options traders) that (when adjusted and recalculated) populates the chart with an adaptive ATR-based trailing stop line, dynamic profit target line, and optional 21-day EMA for directional context.
Below the Entry Price is a fully functional, manual reset toggle to reset all parameters mid-session to assess risk-reward based on entry price, risk tolerance, etc. followed by the “Short” toggle.
Primary Directions/Functions:
Enter your trade price in the “Manual Entry Price” field.
The script will begin plotting a dynamic trailing stop and profit target based on current market conditions.
Use the reset toggle to clear all calculations and start a new position at any time.
Customizable Settings:
ATR Length and Multiplier
Risk/Reward Profit Target Multiplier
Toggle to show/hide trailing stop, target, and EMA lines
Options Trading Use Case:
This tool is especially useful for options traders looking to manage premium-based entries (e.g., $5.00) on intraday or swing trades. The dynamic stop and target lines provide clear visual cues for scaling out or exiting based on price action, while allowing for tighter or looser risk depending on volatility (ATR).
This tool does not auto-detect entries or backtest positions. It is intended to complement your entry signals, not generate them. I've written an Options Momentum Signal indicator you can find right here which functions well in tandem with this tool.
Made for traders who execute trades manually and want typical preset guidelines for profit and stop loss signals but lets you recalculate them by simply clicking a button, especially if any major news or downturn causes a big change in market conditions so you can make adjustments in real time.
Stochastic Enhanced [DCAUT]█ Stochastic Enhanced
📊 ORIGINALITY & INNOVATION
The Stochastic Enhanced indicator builds upon George Lane's classic momentum oscillator (developed in the late 1950s) by providing comprehensive smoothing algorithm flexibility. While traditional implementations limit users to Simple Moving Average (SMA) smoothing, this enhanced version offers 21 advanced smoothing algorithms, allowing traders to optimize the indicator's characteristics for different market conditions and trading styles.
Key Improvements:
Extended from single SMA smoothing to 21 professional-grade algorithms including adaptive filters (KAMA, FRAMA), zero-lag methods (ZLEMA, T3), and advanced digital filters (Kalman, Laguerre)
Maintains backward compatibility with traditional Stochastic calculations through SMA default setting
Unified smoothing algorithm applies to both %K and %D lines for consistent signal processing characteristics
Enhanced visual feedback with clear color distinction and background fill highlighting for intuitive signal recognition
Comprehensive alert system covering crossovers and zone entries for systematic trade management
Differentiation from Traditional Stochastic:
Traditional Stochastic indicators use fixed SMA smoothing, which introduces consistent lag regardless of market volatility. This enhanced version addresses the limitation by offering adaptive algorithms that adjust to market conditions (KAMA, FRAMA), reduce lag without sacrificing smoothness (ZLEMA, T3, HMA), or provide superior noise filtering (Kalman Filter, Laguerre filters). The flexibility helps traders balance responsiveness and stability according to their specific needs.
📐 MATHEMATICAL FOUNDATION
Core Stochastic Calculation:
The Stochastic Oscillator measures the position of the current close relative to the high-low range over a specified period:
Step 1: Raw %K Calculation
%K_raw = 100 × (Close - Lowest Low) / (Highest High - Lowest Low)
Where:
Close = Current closing price
Lowest Low = Lowest low over the %K Length period
Highest High = Highest high over the %K Length period
Result ranges from 0 (close at period low) to 100 (close at period high)
Step 2: Smoothed %K Calculation
%K = MA(%K_raw, K Smoothing Period, MA Type)
Where:
MA = Selected moving average algorithm (SMA, EMA, etc.)
K Smoothing = 1 for Fast Stochastic, 3+ for Slow Stochastic
Traditional Fast Stochastic uses %K_raw directly without smoothing
Step 3: Signal Line %D Calculation
%D = MA(%K, D Smoothing Period, MA Type)
Where:
%D acts as a signal line and moving average of %K
D Smoothing typically set to 3 periods in traditional implementations
Both %K and %D use the same MA algorithm for consistent behavior
Available Smoothing Algorithms (21 Options):
Standard Moving Averages:
SMA (Simple): Equal-weighted average, traditional default, consistent lag characteristics
EMA (Exponential): Recent price emphasis, faster response to changes, exponential decay weighting
RMA (Rolling/Wilder's): Smoothed average used in RSI, less reactive than EMA
WMA (Weighted): Linear weighting favoring recent data, moderate responsiveness
VWMA (Volume-Weighted): Incorporates volume data, reflects market participation intensity
Advanced Moving Averages:
HMA (Hull): Reduced lag with smoothness, uses weighted moving averages and square root period
ALMA (Arnaud Legoux): Gaussian distribution weighting, minimal lag with good noise reduction
LSMA (Least Squares): Linear regression based, fits trend line to data points
DEMA (Double Exponential): Reduced lag compared to EMA, uses double smoothing technique
TEMA (Triple Exponential): Further lag reduction, triple smoothing with lag compensation
ZLEMA (Zero-Lag Exponential): Lag elimination attempt using error correction, very responsive
TMA (Triangular): Double-smoothed SMA, very smooth but slower response
Adaptive & Intelligent Filters:
T3 (Tilson T3): Six-pass exponential smoothing with volume factor adjustment, excellent smoothness
FRAMA (Fractal Adaptive): Adapts to market fractal dimension, faster in trends, slower in ranges
KAMA (Kaufman Adaptive): Efficiency ratio based adaptation, responds to volatility changes
McGinley Dynamic: Self-adjusting mechanism following price more accurately, reduced whipsaws
Kalman Filter: Optimal estimation algorithm from aerospace engineering, dynamic noise filtering
Advanced Digital Filters:
Ultimate Smoother: Advanced digital filter design, superior noise rejection with minimal lag
Laguerre Filter: Time-domain filter with N-order implementation, adjustable lag characteristics
Laguerre Binomial Filter: 6-pole Laguerre filter, extremely smooth output for long-term analysis
Super Smoother: Butterworth filter implementation, removes high-frequency noise effectively
📊 COMPREHENSIVE SIGNAL ANALYSIS
Absolute Level Interpretation (%K Line):
%K Above 80: Overbought condition, price near period high, potential reversal or pullback zone, caution for new long entries
%K in 70-80 Range: Strong upward momentum, bullish trend confirmation, uptrend likely continuing
%K in 50-70 Range: Moderate bullish momentum, neutral to positive outlook, consolidation or mild uptrend
%K in 30-50 Range: Moderate bearish momentum, neutral to negative outlook, consolidation or mild downtrend
%K in 20-30 Range: Strong downward momentum, bearish trend confirmation, downtrend likely continuing
%K Below 20: Oversold condition, price near period low, potential bounce or reversal zone, caution for new short entries
Crossover Signal Analysis:
%K Crosses Above %D (Bullish Cross): Momentum shifting bullish, faster line overtakes slower signal, consider long entry especially in oversold zone, strongest when occurring below 20 level
%K Crosses Below %D (Bearish Cross): Momentum shifting bearish, faster line falls below slower signal, consider short entry especially in overbought zone, strongest when occurring above 80 level
Crossover in Midrange (40-60): Less reliable signals, often in choppy sideways markets, require additional confirmation from trend or volume analysis
Multiple Failed Crosses: Indicates ranging market or choppy conditions, reduce position sizes or avoid trading until clear directional move
Advanced Divergence Patterns (%K Line vs Price):
Bullish Divergence: Price makes lower low while %K makes higher low, indicates weakening bearish momentum, potential trend reversal upward, more reliable when %K in oversold zone
Bearish Divergence: Price makes higher high while %K makes lower high, indicates weakening bullish momentum, potential trend reversal downward, more reliable when %K in overbought zone
Hidden Bullish Divergence: Price makes higher low while %K makes lower low, indicates trend continuation in uptrend, bullish trend strength confirmation
Hidden Bearish Divergence: Price makes lower high while %K makes higher high, indicates trend continuation in downtrend, bearish trend strength confirmation
Momentum Strength Analysis (%K Line Slope):
Steep %K Slope: Rapid momentum change, strong directional conviction, potential for extended moves but also increased reversal risk
Gradual %K Slope: Steady momentum development, sustainable trends more likely, lower probability of sharp reversals
Flat or Horizontal %K: Momentum stalling, potential reversal or consolidation ahead, wait for directional break before committing
%K Oscillation Within Range: Indicates ranging market, sideways price action, better suited for range-trading strategies than trend following
🎯 STRATEGIC APPLICATIONS
Mean Reversion Strategy (Range-Bound Markets):
Identify ranging market conditions using price action or Bollinger Bands
Wait for Stochastic to reach extreme zones (above 80 for overbought, below 20 for oversold)
Enter counter-trend position when %K crosses %D in extreme zone (sell on bearish cross above 80, buy on bullish cross below 20)
Set profit targets near opposite extreme or midline (50 level)
Use tight stop-loss above recent swing high/low to protect against breakout scenarios
Exit when Stochastic reaches opposite extreme or %K crosses %D in opposite direction
Trend Following with Momentum Confirmation:
Identify primary trend direction using higher timeframe analysis or moving averages
Wait for Stochastic pullback to oversold zone (<20) in uptrend or overbought zone (>80) in downtrend
Enter in trend direction when %K crosses %D confirming momentum shift (bullish cross in uptrend, bearish cross in downtrend)
Use wider stops to accommodate normal trend volatility
Add to position on subsequent pullbacks showing similar Stochastic pattern
Exit when Stochastic shows opposite extreme with failed cross or bearish/bullish divergence
Divergence-Based Reversal Strategy:
Scan for divergence between price and Stochastic at swing highs/lows
Confirm divergence with at least two price pivots showing divergent Stochastic readings
Wait for %K to cross %D in direction of anticipated reversal as entry trigger
Enter position in divergence direction with stop beyond recent swing extreme
Target profit at key support/resistance levels or Fibonacci retracements
Scale out as Stochastic reaches opposite extreme zone
Multi-Timeframe Momentum Alignment:
Analyze Stochastic on higher timeframe (4H or Daily) for primary trend bias
Switch to lower timeframe (1H or 15M) for precise entry timing
Only take trades where lower timeframe Stochastic signal aligns with higher timeframe momentum direction
Higher timeframe Stochastic in bullish zone (>50) = only take long entries on lower timeframe
Higher timeframe Stochastic in bearish zone (<50) = only take short entries on lower timeframe
Exit when lower timeframe shows counter-signal or higher timeframe momentum reverses
Zone Transition Strategy:
Monitor Stochastic for transitions between zones (oversold to neutral, neutral to overbought, etc.)
Enter long when Stochastic crosses above 20 (exiting oversold), signaling momentum shift from bearish to neutral/bullish
Enter short when Stochastic crosses below 80 (exiting overbought), signaling momentum shift from bullish to neutral/bearish
Use zone midpoint (50) as dynamic support/resistance for position management
Trail stops as Stochastic advances through favorable zones
Exit when Stochastic fails to maintain momentum and reverses back into prior zone
📋 DETAILED PARAMETER CONFIGURATION
%K Length (Default: 14):
Lower Values (5-9): Highly sensitive to price changes, generates more frequent signals, increased false signals in choppy markets, suitable for very short-term trading and scalping
Standard Values (10-14): Balanced sensitivity and reliability, traditional default (14) widely used,适合 swing trading and intraday strategies
Higher Values (15-21): Reduced sensitivity, smoother oscillations, fewer but potentially more reliable signals, better for position trading and lower timeframe noise reduction
Very High Values (21+): Slow response, long-term momentum measurement, fewer trading signals, suitable for weekly or monthly analysis
%K Smoothing (Default: 3):
Value 1: Fast Stochastic, uses raw %K calculation without additional smoothing, most responsive to price changes, generates earliest signals with higher noise
Value 3: Slow Stochastic (default), traditional smoothing level, reduces false signals while maintaining good responsiveness, widely accepted standard
Values 5-7: Very slow response, extremely smooth oscillations, significantly reduced whipsaws but delayed entry/exit timing
Recommendation: Default value 3 suits most trading scenarios, active short-term traders may use 1, conservative long-term positions use 5+
%D Smoothing (Default: 3):
Lower Values (1-2): Signal line closely follows %K, frequent crossover signals, useful for active trading but requires strict filtering
Standard Value (3): Traditional setting providing balanced signal line behavior, optimal for most trading applications
Higher Values (4-7): Smoother signal line, fewer crossover signals, reduced whipsaws but slower confirmation, better for trend trading
Very High Values (8+): Signal line becomes slow-moving reference, crossovers rare and highly significant, suitable for long-term position changes only
Smoothing Type Algorithm Selection:
For Trending Markets:
ZLEMA, DEMA, TEMA: Reduced lag for faster trend entry, quick response to momentum shifts, suitable for strong directional moves
HMA, ALMA: Good balance of smoothness and responsiveness, effective for clean trend following without excessive noise
EMA: Classic choice for trending markets, faster than SMA while maintaining reasonable stability
For Ranging/Choppy Markets:
Kalman Filter, Super Smoother: Superior noise filtering, reduces false signals in sideways action, helps identify genuine reversal points
Laguerre Filters: Smooth oscillations with adjustable lag, excellent for mean reversion strategies in ranges
T3, TMA: Very smooth output, filters out market noise effectively, clearer extreme zone identification
For Adaptive Market Conditions:
KAMA: Automatically adjusts to market efficiency, fast in trends and slow in congestion, reduces whipsaws during transitions
FRAMA: Adapts to fractal market structure, responsive during directional moves, conservative during uncertainty
McGinley Dynamic: Self-adjusting smoothing, follows price naturally, minimizes lag in trending markets while filtering noise in ranges
For Conservative Long-Term Analysis:
SMA: Traditional choice, predictable behavior, widely understood characteristics
RMA (Wilder's): Smooth oscillations, reduced sensitivity to outliers, consistent behavior across market conditions
Laguerre Binomial Filter: Extremely smooth output, ideal for weekly/monthly timeframe analysis, eliminates short-term noise completely
Source Selection:
Close (Default): Standard choice using closing prices, most common and widely tested

HL2: Midpoint of high-low range, emphasizes intrabar volatility, useful for markets with wide intraday ranges
Custom Source: Can use other indicators as input (e.g., Heikin Ashi close, smoothed price), creates derivative momentum indicators
📈 PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS & COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES
Responsiveness Characteristics:
Traditional SMA-Based Stochastic:
Fixed lag regardless of market conditions, consistent delay of approximately (K Smoothing + D Smoothing) / 2 periods
Equal treatment of trending and ranging markets, no adaptation to volatility changes
Predictable behavior but suboptimal in varying market regimes
Enhanced Version with Adaptive Algorithms:
KAMA and FRAMA reduce lag by up to 40-60% in strong trends compared to SMA while maintaining similar smoothness in ranges
ZLEMA and T3 provide near-zero lag characteristics for early entry signals with acceptable noise levels
Kalman Filter and Super Smoother offer superior noise rejection, reducing false signals in choppy conditions by estimations of 30-50% compared to SMA
Performance improvements vary by algorithm selection and market conditions
Signal Quality Improvements:
Adaptive algorithms help reduce whipsaw trades in ranging markets by adjusting sensitivity dynamically
Advanced filters (Kalman, Laguerre, Super Smoother) provide clearer extreme zone readings for mean reversion strategies
Zero-lag methods (ZLEMA, DEMA, TEMA) generate earlier crossover signals in trending markets for improved entry timing
Smoother algorithms (T3, Laguerre Binomial) reduce false extreme zone touches for more reliable overbought/oversold signals
Comparison with Standard Implementations:
Versus Basic Stochastic: Enhanced version offers 21 smoothing options versus single SMA, allowing optimization for specific market characteristics and trading styles
Versus RSI: Stochastic provides range-bound measurement (0-100) with clear extreme zones, RSI measures momentum speed, Stochastic offers clearer visual overbought/oversold identification
Versus MACD: Stochastic bounded oscillator suitable for mean reversion, MACD unbounded indicator better for trend strength, Stochastic excels in range-bound and oscillating markets
Versus CCI: Stochastic has fixed bounds (0-100) for consistent interpretation, CCI unbounded with variable extremes, Stochastic provides more standardized extreme readings across different instruments
Flexibility Advantages:
Single indicator adaptable to multiple strategies through algorithm selection rather than requiring different indicator variants
Ability to optimize smoothing characteristics for specific instruments (e.g., smoother for crypto volatility, faster for forex trends)
Multi-timeframe analysis with consistent algorithm across timeframes for coherent momentum picture
Backtesting capability with algorithm as optimization parameter for strategy development
Limitations and Considerations:
Increased complexity from multiple algorithm choices may lead to over-optimization if parameters are curve-fitted to historical data
Adaptive algorithms (KAMA, FRAMA) have adjustment periods during market regime changes where signals may be less reliable
Zero-lag algorithms sacrifice some smoothness for responsiveness, potentially increasing noise sensitivity in very choppy conditions
Performance characteristics vary significantly across algorithms, requiring understanding and testing before live implementation
Like all oscillators, Stochastic can remain in extreme zones for extended periods during strong trends, generating premature reversal signals
USAGE NOTES
This indicator is designed for technical analysis and educational purposes to provide traders with enhanced flexibility in momentum analysis. The Stochastic Oscillator has limitations and should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions.
Important Considerations:
Algorithm performance varies with market conditions - no single smoothing method is optimal for all scenarios
Extreme zone signals (overbought/oversold) indicate potential reversal areas but not guaranteed turning points, especially in strong trends
Crossover signals may generate false entries during sideways choppy markets regardless of smoothing algorithm
Divergence patterns require confirmation from price action or additional indicators before trading
Past indicator characteristics and backtested results do not guarantee future performance
Always combine Stochastic analysis with proper risk management, position sizing, and multi-indicator confirmation
Test selected algorithm on historical data of specific instrument and timeframe before live trading
Market regime changes may require algorithm adjustment for optimal performance
The enhanced smoothing options are intended to provide tools for optimizing the indicator's behavior to match individual trading styles and market characteristics, not to create a perfect predictive tool. Responsible usage includes understanding the mathematical properties of selected algorithms and their appropriate application contexts.
Exciting Candles by BitcoinBailyExciting Candles by BitcoinBaily — is a custom indicator that visually highlights "momentum" or "exciting" candlesticks on the chart.
It helps traders quickly identify candles with strong body-to-range ratios, i.e., candles showing strong price momentum (big move between open and close relative to the high-low range).
If the candle’s body is greater than or equal to the threshold percentage (say 85%), the bar is colored yellow. Otherwise, no color is applied.
Yellow Candle = Exciting Candle
The candle’s body occupies ≥ the set % (e.g., 85%) of the total high-low range.
Indicates strong momentum (buyers or sellers dominated most of that period).
No Color = Neutral / Normal Candle
Price moved both ways (upper & lower wicks), but neither buyers nor sellers fully dominated.
1. Range Breakout: When price breaks a sideways range and a yellow (exciting) candle appears,
it confirms that real momentum has entered — a good time to catch the move early.
2. Trend Pullback: If price dips to a moving average (like 20 or 50 SMA) and then forms a yellow
candle, it signals that buyers are regaining control — often a high-probability trend
continuation entry.
3. Exhaustion Top: A yellow bearish candle near a resistance area shows strong selling pressure
— a warning that the uptrend may be ending.
4. Sideways Market: When no yellow candles appear, the market lacks momentum — best to
stay out and avoid choppy trades.

## 💡 How It Works
### **Phase 1: Box Formation (9:15 AM - 9:45 AM)**
The indicator tracks the high and low prices during your specified time window to create a reference box representing the opening range.
### **Phase 2: Breakout Detection**
After the box is locked, the system monitors for:
- **Bullish Breakout**: Price closes above box high for confirmation bars
- **Bearish Breakout**: Price closes below box low for confirmation bars
### **Phase 3: Signal Generation**
When confirmation requirements are met:
- Entry signal is generated with clear visual label
- Target price is calculated (Entry ± Target Points)
- Position tracking activates
- Cooldown timer starts
### **Phase 4: Position Management**
During active trade:
- **Add-On Logic**: If price pulls back by specified distance but stays within favorable range, additional entry signal fires
- **Target Monitoring**: Continuously checks if price reaches TP level
- **Box Adjustment**: After TP hit, box automatically shifts to new range for next opportunity
### **Phase 5: Trade Exit & Reset**
On target hit:
- Position closes with TP marker
- Statistics update
- Box repositions for next setup
- Cooldown activates
- System ready for next signal

CVD Pro – Smart Overlay + Signals (with Persist Mode)What this Indicator Does
CVD Pro visualizes Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) data directly on your main price chart — helping you detect real buying vs. selling pressure in real time.
Unlike most CVD scripts that run in a separate subwindow, this one overlays price-mapped CVD curves on the candles themselves for better confluence with market structure and FVG zones.
The script dynamically scales normalized CVD values to the price range and uses adaptive smoothing and deviation bands to highlight shifts in trader behavior.
It also includes automatic bullish/bearish crossover signals, displayed as on-chart labels.
⚙️ Main Features
✅ Price-mapped CVD Overlay
CVD is normalized (Z-score) and projected onto the price chart for easy visual correlation with price structure.
✅ Multi-Timeframe Presets
Three sensitivity presets optimized for different chart environments:
Strict (4H) → Best for macro trends and high-timeframe structure.
Balanced (1H / 30m) → Great for active swing setups.
Sensitive (15m) → Captures short-term intraday reversals.
✅ Dynamic Bands & Smoothing
Deviation bands visualize statistical extremes in delta pressure — helping to identify exhaustion and divergence points.
✅ Smart Buy/Sell Signal Logic
Automatic label triggers when the CVD Overlay crosses its smoothed baseline:
🟢 BULL LONG → Rising CVD above the mean (buyers in control).
🔴 BEAR SHORT → Falling CVD below the mean (sellers in control).
✅ Persist Mode
Toggle to keep the last signal visible until a new one forms — ideal for traders who prefer clean chart annotations without noise.
✅ Clean, Minimal Overlay
Everything happens directly on your chart — no extra windows, no clutter. Designed for use with Smart Money Concepts, Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), or volume imbalance setups.
🧩 Use Case
CVD Pro is designed for traders who:
Use Smart Money Concepts (SMC) or ICT-style trading
Watch for FVG reactions, breaker blocks, and liquidity sweeps
Need to confirm order flow direction or momentum strength
Trade intraday or swing setups with precision entries and clear bias confirmation
⚡ Recommended Settings
4H / 1H: Use Strict mode for major structure and confirmation.
1H / 30m: Balanced mode for clear mid-term trend alignment.
15m: Sensitive mode to catch scalps and lower-TF shifts.
🧠 Pro Tips
Combine with RSI or Market Structure Breaks (MSS) for additional confluence.
A strong CVD divergence near a key FVG or 0.5–0.705 Fibonacci zone often signals reversal.
Persistent CVD crossover + price structure break = high-probability entry.

Ichimoku Screener [Pineify]Advanced Multi-Timeframe Ichimoku Screener - Complete Market Analysis Tool
This sophisticated Ichimoku Screener represents a comprehensive approach to multi-timeframe market analysis, combining four distinct Ichimoku-based indicators into a unified screening system. Unlike traditional single-symbol indicators, this screener provides simultaneous analysis across multiple assets and timeframes, enabling traders to identify optimal trading opportunities with enhanced precision and efficiency.
Key Features
Multi-asset screening capability for up to 10 symbols simultaneously
Four customizable timeframes per symbol for comprehensive analysis
Four integrated Ichimoku-based indicators working in harmony
Real-time visual feedback with color-coded signals
Customizable Ichimoku parameters for personalized analysis
Clean, organized table display for easy interpretation
Automated signal strength assessment and timing
How It Works
The screener employs the traditional Ichimoku Kinko Hyo methodology, utilizing five core components: Conversion Line (Tenkan-sen), Base Line (Kijun-sen), Leading Span A (Senkou Span A), Leading Span B (Senkou Span B), and displacement calculations. Each component is mathematically calculated using specific period lengths:
Conversion Line = (Highest High + Lowest Low) / 2 over conversion period
Base Line = (Highest High + Lowest Low) / 2 over base period
Leading Span A = (Conversion Line + Base Line) / 2
Leading Span B = (Highest High + Lowest Low) / 2 over lagging span period
The screener processes these calculations across multiple securities simultaneously using TradingView's security() function, enabling real-time cross-asset analysis. The system tracks state changes using barssince() functions to provide precise timing information for each signal type.
Trading Ideas and Insights
This screener excels in identifying momentum convergence patterns where multiple Ichimoku components align across different timeframes. The most powerful signals occur when:
Cloud color aligns with price position relative to the cloud
Conversion Line crosses above/below Base Line in the same direction as cloud bias
Multiple timeframes show consistent directional bias
Entry signals appear with minimal bars since formation (indicating fresh momentum)
For trend following strategies , focus on symbols where the cloud maintains consistent color across higher timeframes while showing recent entry signals on lower timeframes. For reversal opportunities , identify assets where cloud color changes coincide with price re-entering the cloud after extended periods above or below.
The screener particularly excels in cryptocurrency and forex markets where momentum shifts can be dramatic and sustained. By monitoring multiple timeframes simultaneously, traders can identify when short-term signals align with longer-term trends, significantly improving trade success probability.
How Multiple Indicators Work Together
The four integrated indicators create a comprehensive analytical framework through synergistic interaction:
Ichimoku Cloud (IchiCld) establishes the primary trend bias by comparing Leading Span A with Leading Span B. When Span A > Span B, the cloud displays bullish characteristics; when Span A < Span B, bearish characteristics emerge. The indicator tracks duration since the last cloud color change, providing momentum persistence insight.
Ichimoku Lagging Cloud (IchiLagCld) determines price position relative to the displaced cloud formation. This indicator identifies whether current price action occurs above, below, or within the cloud structure, revealing support/resistance dynamics and trend confirmation signals.
Conversion vs Base (IchiC>Base) monitors the relationship between short-term (Conversion Line) and medium-term (Base Line) momentum. Crossovers in this relationship often precede significant price movements and provide early trend change warnings.
Ichimoku Entry (IchiEnt) synthesizes all components into actionable signals by requiring alignment between cloud bias, price position, and conversion/base relationship. This multi-factor confirmation approach significantly reduces false signals while maintaining sensitivity to genuine momentum shifts.
The mathematical foundation ensures that each indicator contributes unique information while maintaining logical consistency. The system's strength lies in requiring multiple confirmations before generating entry signals, following Ichimoku's original philosophy of comprehensive market analysis.
Unique Aspects
This implementation distinguishes itself through several innovative features:
Advanced State Tracking : Unlike standard Ichimoku indicators that show current values, this screener tracks duration since state changes , providing crucial timing information for signal freshness and momentum strength assessment.
Multi-Asset Efficiency : The screener eliminates the need to manually check multiple charts by presenting comparative analysis across assets and timeframes in a single view, dramatically improving analytical efficiency.
Customizable Visual Feedback : The color-coding system adapts to different signal types and strengths, with recent signals receiving enhanced visual prominence to draw attention to fresh opportunities.
Professional Table Architecture : The organized display accommodates up to 40 symbol-timeframe combinations (10 symbols × 4 timeframes), with intelligent pagination for optimal screen utilization.
Signal Correlation Analysis : By displaying multiple timeframes for each symbol, traders can quickly identify timeframe confluence and divergence patterns that would otherwise require extensive manual analysis.
How to Use
Symbol Configuration : Enter up to 10 symbols in the Symbol input group. Use full exchange:ticker format for optimal compatibility (e.g., "BINANCE:BTCUSDT").
Timeframe Selection : Configure four timeframes in ascending order for logical analysis progression. Recommended combinations include 1m/5m/15m/1h for intraday analysis or 1h/4h/1D/1W for swing trading.
Ichimoku Parameters : Adjust the four core parameters based on your trading style:
Conversion Line Length (default: 9) - Controls short-term momentum sensitivity
Base Line Length (default: 26) - Determines medium-term trend identification
Leading Span B Length (default: 52) - Sets long-term trend calculation period
Displacement (default: 26) - Controls forward projection of cloud structure
Signal Interpretation :
Green backgrounds indicate bullish conditions
Red backgrounds indicate bearish conditions
Numerical values show bars since last state change
"L:" prefix indicates long entry signals
"S:" prefix indicates short entry signals
"N/A" indicates neutral/transitional states
Trading Workflow : Scan for symbols showing consistent signals across multiple timeframes, prioritize fresh signals (low bar counts), and use individual charts for precise entry timing and risk management.
Customization
The screener accommodates various trading approaches through parameter adjustment:
Scalping Configuration : Use shorter periods (Conversion: 5, Base: 13, Span B: 26) with 1m/3m/5m/15m timeframes for high-frequency opportunities.
Swing Trading Setup : Employ standard parameters with 4h/1D/3D/1W timeframes for position trading across days or weeks.
Cryptocurrency Optimization : Given crypto's 24/7 nature, consider using 4h/8h/1D/3D combinations for optimal signal timing.
Symbol selection can focus on correlated assets (e.g., major cryptocurrencies) for sector analysis or diverse assets for portfolio opportunity identification. The flexible timeframe configuration allows adaptation to any market's characteristic volatility and trading patterns.
Conclusion
This Advanced Multi-Timeframe Ichimoku Screener transforms traditional single-chart analysis into a comprehensive market monitoring system. By integrating multiple Ichimoku components across various timeframes and assets, it provides traders with unprecedented analytical efficiency and signal reliability.
The mathematical rigor of traditional Ichimoku analysis combines with modern Pine Script capabilities to deliver a professional-grade screening tool. Whether used for identifying trend continuation opportunities, spotting potential reversals, or conducting broad market analysis, this screener offers the analytical depth and practical functionality required for serious trading applications.
The system's emphasis on signal confluence across multiple timeframes and indicators significantly improves trade selection quality while reducing analysis time. For traders seeking to leverage Ichimoku's proven methodology across multiple markets simultaneously, this screener represents an essential analytical upgrade to traditional single-symbol approaches.
Mitigation Blocks — Lite (ICT) + Stats + Entry75Mitigation Blocks — Lite (ICT) + Stats + Entry75
What it does
This indicator finds recent Mitigation Blocks (ICT-style) and draws a single active bullish and bearish block on the chart.
It also plots the 75% entry level for each active block and shows a compact performance HUD (“Отработано / Worked”) so you can quickly judge how well blocks have been reacting on the current symbol and timeframe.
Logic (brief)
Structure impulse
A new block is created when price breaks the last swing (pivot-based) with an optional ATR body filter.
After an upswing break → search the most recent bearish candle within a lookback window → its body defines the bullish block (top/bottom = max/min of that candle’s open/close).
After a downswing break → search the most recent bullish candle → defines the bearish block.
Touch & mitigation
First time price touches a block, the block is marked mitigated (border becomes dashed).
Entry line for that block is removed (no history clutter to the left).
75% entry levels
Long (bullish block): entry = top − 0.75 × (top − bottom) (deeper inside from the top).
Short (bearish block): entry = bottom + 0.75 × (top − bottom) (deeper inside from the bottom).
Lines are drawn only to the right (history on the left is hidden).
Stats (HUD)
The HUD shows Worked% per side: percentage of first touches that reached a simple target in the check window.
Current version uses a conservative proxy: success if, within the next bars, price moved away from the block by at least ~1×ATR (internally calculated) without first invalidating the block’s opposite boundary.
Values are accumulated while the script runs on the loaded chart range.
Inputs
Structure
Swing length (pivot) — pivot size to detect last swing.
Require minimum impulse / Min body × ATR / ATR length — filter for strong displacement bars.
Search last opposite candle (bars back) — lookback to find the candle that defines the block.
Style
Fill & border colors for bullish/bearish blocks.
Mitigated border color (dashed on first touch).
Entry 75% lines
Show 75% entry lines (on/off)
Colors and line width.
Autoscale
Optional hidden anchor plots for better autoscaling.
On-chart elements
Active bullish/bearish block (rectangle, extended right).
Dashed border once the block is mitigated (first touch).
75% entry line for each non-mitigated block (drawn only to the right; removed on mitigation).
HUD (top-right):
LONG | Worked: XX.X% |
SHORT | Worked: XX.X% |
If there is no active (non-mitigated) block on a side, the entry cell shows “ожидаем” (“waiting”).
How to read it
Trade from block to block: use the 75% line as a reference entry inside the zone; stops are commonly placed beyond the opposite side of the block.
Worked% helps compare symbols/timeframes: higher with a decent sample typically means more reliable reactions.
The indicator shows only the latest valid block per side to keep the chart clean.
Notes & tips
This is a discretionary tool intended to support ICT-style execution; it is not a strategy and does not place trades.
Try different timeframes. Many users prefer M5–H1 for entries and H4–D1 for context.
You can turn off entry lines if you only want the zones.
Because stats are computed on the visible history while the script runs, switching symbols/TFs will reset the counters.
Inputs (defaults)
Pivot length: 5
ATR length: 14
Min body × ATR: 1.0 (enable/disable filter)
Opposite candle lookback: 5
Entry 75% lines: ON
Macro Momentum – 4-Theme, Vol Target, RebalanceMacro Momentum — 4-Theme, Vol Target, Rebalance
Purpose. A macro-aware strategy that blends four economic “themes”—Business Cycle, Trade/USD, Monetary Policy, and Risk Sentiment—into a single, smoothed Composite signal. It then:
gates entries/exits with hysteresis bands,
enforces optional regime filters (200-day bias), and
sizes the position via volatility targeting with caps for long/short exposure.
It’s designed to run on any chart (index, ETF, futures, single stocks) while reading external macro proxies on a chosen Signal Timeframe.
How it works (high level)
Build four theme signals from robust macro proxies:
Business Cycle: XLI/XLU and Copper/Gold momentum, confirmed by the chart’s price vs a long SMA (default 200D).
Trade / USD: DXY momentum (sign-flipped so a rising USD is bearish for risk assets).
Monetary Policy: 10Y–2Y curve slope momentum and 10Y yield trend (steepening & falling 10Y = risk-on; rising 10Y = risk-off).
Risk Sentiment: VIX momentum (bearish if higher) and HYG/IEF momentum (bullish if credit outperforms duration).
Normalize & de-noise.
Optional Winsorization (MAD or stdev) clamps outliers over a lookback window.
Optional Z-score → tanh mapping compresses to ~ for stable weighting.
Theme lines are SMA-smoothed; the final Composite is LSMA-smoothed (linreg).
Decide direction with hysteresis.
Enter/hold long when Composite ≥ Entry Band; enter/hold short when Composite ≤ −Entry Band.
Exit bands are tighter than entry bands to avoid whipsaws.
Apply regime & direction constraints.
Optional Long-only above 200MA (chart symbol) and/or Short-only below 200MA.
Global Direction control (Long / Short / Both) and Invert switch.
Size via volatility targeting.
Realized close-to-close vol is annualized (choose 9-5 or 24/7 market profile).
Target exposure = TargetVol / RealizedVol, capped by Max Long/Max Short multipliers.
Quantity is computed from equity; futures are rounded to whole contracts.
Rebalance cadence & execution.
Trades are placed on Weekly / Monthly / Quarterly rebalance bars or when the sign of exposure flips.
Optional ATR stop/TP for single-stock style risk management.
Inputs you’ll actually tweak
General
Signal Timeframe: Where macro is sampled (e.g., D/W).
Rebalance Frequency: Weekly / Monthly / Quarterly.
ROC & SMA lengths: Defaults for theme momentum and the 200D regime filter.
Normalization: Z-score (tanh) on/off.
Winsorization
Toggle, lookback, multiplier, MAD vs Stdev.
Risk / Sizing
Target Annualized Vol & Realized Vol Lookback.
Direction (Long/Short/Both) and Invert.
Max long/short exposure caps.
Advanced Thresholds
Theme/Composite smoothing lengths.
Entry/Exit bands (hysteresis).
Regime / Execution
Long-only above 200MA, Short-only below 200MA.
Stops/TP (optional)
ATR length and SL/TP multiples.
Theme Weights
Per-theme scalars so you can push/pull emphasis (e.g., overweight Policy during rate cycles).
Macro Proxies
Symbols for each theme (XLI, XLU, HG1!, GC1!, DXY, US10Y, US02Y, VIX, HYG, IEF). Swap to alternatives as needed (e.g., UUP for DXY).
Signals & logic (under the hood)
Business Cycle = ½ ROC(XLI/XLU) + ½ ROC(Copper/Gold), then confirmed by (price > 200SMA ? +1 : −1).
Trade / USD = −ROC(DXY).
Monetary Policy = 0.6·ROC(10Y–2Y) − 0.4·ROC(10Y).
Risk Sentiment = −0.6·ROC(VIX) + 0.4·ROC(HYG/IEF).
Each theme → (optional Winsor) → (robust z or scaled ROC) → tanh → SMA smoothing.
Composite = weighted average → LSMA smoothing → compare to bands → dir ∈ {−1,0,+1}.
Rebalance & flips. Orders fire on your chosen cadence or when the sign of exposure changes.
Position size. exposure = clamp(TargetVol / realizedVol, maxLong/Short) × dir.
Note: The script also exposes Gross Exposure (% equity) and Signed Exposure (× equity) as diagnostics. These can help you audit how vol-targeting and caps translate into sizing over time.
Visuals & alerts
Composite line + columns (color/intensity reflect direction & strength).
Entry/Exit bands with green/red fills for quick polarity reads.
Hidden plots for each Theme if you want to show them.
Optional rebalance labels (direction, gross & signed exposure, σ).
Background heatmap keyed to Composite.
Alerts
Enter/Inc LONG when Composite crosses up (and on rebalance bars).
Enter/Inc SHORT when Composite crosses down (and on rebalance bars).
Exit to FLAT when Composite returns toward neutral (and on rebalance bars).
Practical tips
Start higher timeframes. Daily signals with Monthly rebalance are a good baseline; weekly signals with quarterly rebalances are even cleaner.
Tune Entry/Exit bands before anything else. Wider bands = fewer trades and less noise.
Weights reflect regime. If policy dominates markets, raise Monetary Policy weight; if credit stress drives moves, raise Risk Sentiment.
Proxies are swappable. Use UUP for USD, or futures-continuous symbols that match your data plan.
Futures vs ETFs. Quantity auto-rounds for futures; ETFs accept fractional shares. Check contract multipliers when interpreting exposure.
Caveats
Macro proxies can repaint at the selected signal timeframe as higher-TF bars form; that’s intentional for macro sampling, but test live.
Vol targeting assumes reasonably stationary realized vol over the lookback; if markets regime-shift, revisit volLook and targetVol.
If you disable normalization/winsorization, themes can become spikier; expect more hysteresis band crossings.
What to change first (quick start)
Set Signal Timeframe = D, Rebalance = Monthly, Z-score on, Winsor on (MAD).
Entry/Exit bands: 0.25 / 0.12 (defaults), then nudge until trade count and turnover feel right.
TargetVol: try 10% for diversified indices; lower for single stocks, higher for vol-sell strategies.
Leave weights = 1.0 until you’ve inspected the four theme lines; then tilt deliberately.
Dominance Signal Apex [CHE]]Dominance Signal Apex — Triple-confirmed entry markers with stateful guardrails
Summary
This indicator focuses on entry timing by plotting markers only when three conditions align: a closed-bar Heikin-Ashi bias, a monotonic stack of super-smoother filters, and the current HMA slope. A compact state machine provides guardrails: it starts a directional state on closed-bar Heikin-Ashi bias, maintains it only while the smoother stack remains ordered, and renders a marker only if HMA slope agrees. This design aims for selective signals and reduces isolated prints during mixed conditions. Markers fade over time to visualize the age and persistence of the current state.
Motivation: Why this design?
Common triggers flip frequently in noise or react late when regimes shift. The core idea is to gate entry markers through a closed-bar state plus independent filter alignment. The state machine limits premature prints, removes markers when alignment breaks, and uses the HMA as a final directional gate. The result is fewer mixed-context entries and clearer clusters during sustained trends.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Reference baseline: Single moving-average slope or classic MA cross signals.
Architecture differences:
Multi-length two-pole super-smoother stack with strict ordering checks.
Closed-bar Heikin-Ashi bias to start a directional state.
HMA slope as a final gate for rendering markers.
Time-based alpha fade to surface state age.
Practical effect: Entry markers appear in clusters during aligned regimes and are suppressed when conditions diverge, improving selectivity.
How it works (technical)
Measurements: Four recursive super-smoother series on price at short to medium horizons. Up regime means each shorter smoother sits below the next longer one; down regime is the inverse.
State machine: On bar close, positive Heikin-Ashi bias starts a bull state and negative bias starts a bear state. The state terminates the moment the smoother ordering breaks relative to the prior bar.
Rendering gate: A marker prints only if the active state agrees with the current HMA slope. The HMA is plotted and colored by slope for context.
Normalization and clamping: Marker transparency transitions from a starting to an ending alpha across a fixed number of bars, clamped within the allowed range.
Initialization: Persistent variables track state and bar-count since state start; Heikin-Ashi open is seeded on the first valid bar.
HTF/security: None used. State updates are closed-bar, which reduces repaint paths.
Bands: Smoothed high, low, centerline, and offset bands are computed but not rendered.
Parameter Guide
Show Markers — Toggle rendering — Default: true — Hides markers without changing logic.
Bull Color / Bear Color — Visual colors — Defaults: bright green / red — Aesthetic only.
Start Alpha / End Alpha — Transparency range — Defaults: one hundred / fifty, within zero to one hundred — Controls initial visibility and fade endpoint.
Steps — Fade length in bars — Default: eight, minimum one — Longer values extend the visual memory of a state.
Smoother Length — Internal band smoothing — Default: twenty-one, minimum two — Affects computed bands only; not drawn.
Band Multiplier — Internal band offset — Default: one point zero — No impact on markers.
Source — Input for HMA — Default: close — Align with your workflow.
Length — HMA length — Default: fifty, minimum one — Larger values reduce flips; smaller values react faster.
Reading & Interpretation
Entry markers:
Bull marker (below bar): Closed-bar Heikin-Ashi bias is positive, smoother stack remains aligned for up regime, and HMA slope is rising.
Bear marker (above bar): Closed-bar Heikin-Ashi bias is negative, smoother stack remains aligned for down regime, and HMA slope is falling.
Fade: Transparency progresses over the configured steps, indicating how long the current state has persisted.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
Trend following: Focus on marker clusters aligned with HMA color. Add structure filters such as higher highs and higher lows or lower highs and lower lows to avoid counter-trend entries.
Exits/Stops: Consider exiting or reducing risk when smoother ordering breaks, when HMA color flips, or when marker cadence thins out.
Multi-asset/Multi-TF: Suitable for liquid crypto, FX, indices, and equities. On lower timeframes, shorten HMA length and fade steps for faster response.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Repaint/confirmation: State transitions and marker eligibility are decided on closed bars; live bars do not commit state changes until close.
security()/HTF: Not used.
Resources: Declared max bars back of one thousand five hundred; recursive filters and persistent states; no explicit loops.
Known limits: Some delay around sharp turns; brief states may start in noisy phases but are quickly revoked when alignment fails; HMA gating can miss very early reversals.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Start here: Keep defaults.
Too many flips: Increase HMA length and raise fade steps.
Too sluggish: Decrease HMA length and reduce fade steps.
Markers too faint/bold: Adjust start and end alpha toward lower or higher opacity.
What this indicator is—and isn’t
A selective entry-marker layer that prints only under triple confirmation with stateful guardrails. It is not a full system, not predictive, and does not handle risk. Combine with market structure, risk controls, and position management.

Trend Fib Zone Bounce (TFZB) [KedArc Quant]Description:
Trend Fib Zone Bounce (TFZB) trades with the latest confirmed Supply/Demand zone using a single, configurable Fib pullback (0.3/0.5/0.6). Trade only in the direction of the most recent zone and use a single, configurable fib level for pullback entries.
• Detects market structure via confirmed swing highs/lows using a rolling window.
• Draws Supply/Demand zones (bearish/bullish rectangles) from the latest MSS (CHOCH or BOS) event.
• Computes intra zone Fib guide rails and keeps them extended in real time.
• Triggers BUY only inside bullish zones and SELL only inside bearish zones when price touches the selected fib and closes back beyond it (bounce confirmation).
• Optional labels print BULL/BEAR + fib next to the triangle markers.
What it does
Finds structure using confirmed swing highs/lows (you choose the confirmation length).
Builds the latest zone (bullish = demand, bearish = supply) after a CHOCH/BOS event.
Draws intra-zone “guide rails” (Fib lines) and extends them live.
Signals only with the trend of that zone:
BUY inside a bullish zone when price tags the selected Fib and closes back above it.
SELL inside a bearish zone when price tags the selected Fib and closes back below it.
Optional labels print BULL/BEAR + Fib next to triangles for quick context
Why this is different
Most “zone + fib + signal” tools bolt together several indicators, or fire counter-trend signals because they don’t fully respect structure. TFZB is intentionally minimal:
Single bias source: the latest confirmed zone defines direction; nothing else overrides it.
Single entry rule: one Fib bounce (0.3/0.5/0.6 selectable) inside that zone—no counter-trend trades by design.
Clean visuals: you can show only the most recent zone, clamp overlap, and keep just the rails that matter.
Deterministic & transparent: every plot/label comes from the code you see—no external series or hidden smoothing
How it helps traders
Cuts decision noise: you always know the bias and the only entry that matters right now.
Forces discipline: if price isn’t inside the active zone, you don’t trade.
Adapts to volatility: pick 0.3 in strong trends, 0.5 as the default, 0.6 in chop.
Non-repainting zones: swings are confirmed after Structure Length bars, then used to build zones that extend forward (they don’t “teleport” later)
How it works (details)
*Structure confirmation
A swing high/low is only confirmed after Structure Length bars have elapsed; the dot is plotted back on the original bar using offset. Expect a confirmation delay of about Structure Length × timeframe.
*Zone creation
After a CHOCH/BOS (momentum shift / break of prior swing), TFZB draws the new Supply/Demand zone from the swing anchors and sets it active.
*Fib guide rails
Inside the active zone TFZB projects up to five Fib lines (defaults: 0.3 / 0.5 / 0.7) and extends them as time passes.
*Entry logic (with-trend only)
BUY: bar’s low ≤ fib and close > fib inside a bullish zone.
SELL: bar’s high ≥ fib and close < fib inside a bearish zone.
*Optionally restrict to one signal per zone to avoid over-trading.
(Optional) Aggressive confirm-bar entry
When do the swing dots print?
* The code confirms a swing only after `structureLen` bars have elapsed since that candidate high/low.
* On a 5-min chart with `structureLen = 10`, that’s about 50 minutes later.
* When the swing confirms, the script plots the dot back on the original bar (via `offset = -structureLen`). So you *see* the dot on the old bar, but it only appears on the chart once the confirming bar arrives.
> Practical takeaway: expect swing markers to appear roughly `structureLen × timeframe` later. Zones and signals are built from those confirmed swings.
Best timeframe for this Indicator
Use the timeframe that matches your holding period and the noise level of the instrument:
* Intraday :
* 5m or 15m are the sweet spots.
* Suggested `structureLen`:
* 5m: 10–14 (confirmation delay \~50–70 min)
* 15m: 8–10 (confirmation delay \~2–2.5 hours)
* Keep Entry Fib at 0.5 to start; try 0.3 in strong trends, 0.6 in chop.
* Tip: avoid the first 10–15 minutes after the open; let the initial volatility set the early structure.
* Swing/overnight:
* 1h or 4h.
* `structureLen`:
* 1h: 6–10 (6–10 hours confirmation)
* 4h: 5–8 (20–32 hours confirmation)
* 1m scalping: not recommended here—the confirmation lag relative to the noise makes zones less reliable.
Inputs (all groups)
Structure
• Show Swing Points (structureTog)
o Plots small dots on the bar where a swing point is confirmed (offset back by Structure Length).
• Structure Length (structureLen)
o Lookback used to confirm swing highs/lows and determine local structure. Higher = fewer, stronger swings; lower = more reactive.
Zones
• Show Last (zoneDispNum)
o Maximum number of zones kept on the chart when Display All Zones is off.
• Display All Zones (dispAll)
o If on, ignores Show Last and keeps all zones/levels.
• Zone Display (zoneFilter): Bullish Only / Bearish Only / Both
o Filters which zone types are drawn and eligible for signals.
• Clean Up Level Overlap (noOverlap)
o Prevents fib lines from overlapping when a new zone starts near the previous one (clamps line start/end times for readability).
Fib Levels
Each row controls whether a fib is drawn and how it looks:
• Toggle (f1Tog…f5Tog): Show/hide a given fib line.
• Level (f1Lvl…f5Lvl): Numeric ratio in . Defaults active: 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 (0 and 1 off by default).
• Line Style (f1Style…f5Style): Solid / Dashed / Dotted.
• Bull/Bear Colors (f#BullColor, f#BearColor): Per-fib color in bullish vs bearish zones.
Style
• Structure Color: Dot color for confirmed swing points.
• Bullish Zone Color / Bearish Zone Color: Rectangle fills (transparent by default).
Signals
• Entry Fib for Signals (entryFibSel): Choose 0.3, 0.5 (default), or 0.6 as the trigger line.
• Show Buy/Sell Signals (showSignals): Toggles triangle markers on/off.
• One Signal Per Zone (oneSignalPerZone): If on, suppresses additional entries within the same zone after the first trigger.
• Show Signal Text Labels (Bull/Bear + Fib) (showSignalLabels): Adds a small label next to each triangle showing zone bias and the fib used (e.g., BULL 0.5 or BEAR 0.3).
How TFZB decides signals
With trend only:
• BUY
1. Latest active zone is bullish.
2. Current bar’s close is inside the zone (between top and bottom).
3. The bar’s low ≤ selected fib and it closes > selected fib (bounce).
• SELL
1. Latest active zone is bearish.
2. Current bar’s close is inside the zone.
3. The bar’s high ≥ selected fib and it closes < selected fib.
Markers & labels
• BUY: triangle up below the bar; optional label “BULL 0.x” above it.
• SELL: triangle down above the bar; optional label “BEAR 0.x” below it.
Right-Panel Swing Log (Table)
What it is
A compact, auto-updating log of the most recent Swing High/Low events, printed in the top-right of the chart.
It helps you see when a pivot formed, when it was confirmed, and at what price—so you know the earliest bar a zone-based signal could have appeared.
Columns
Type – Swing High or Swing Low.
Date – Calendar date of the swing bar (follows the chart’s timezone).
Swing @ – Time of the original swing bar (where the dot is drawn).
Confirm @ – Time of the bar that confirmed that swing (≈ Structure Length × timeframe after the swing). This is also the earliest moment a new zone/entry can be considered.
Price – The swing price (high for SH, low for SL).
Why it’s useful
Clarity on repaint/confirmation: shows the natural delay between a swing forming and being usable—no guessing.
Planning & journaling: quick reference of today’s pivots and prices for notes/backtesting.
Scanning intraday: glance to see if you already have a confirmed zone (and therefore valid fib-bounce entries), or if you’re still waiting.
Context for signals: if a fib-bounce triangle appears before the time listed in Confirm @, it’s not a valid trade (you were too early).
Settings (Inputs → Logging)
Log swing times / Show table – turn the table on/off.
Rows to keep – how many recent entries to display.
Show labels on swing bar – optional tags on the chart (“Swing High 11:45”, “Confirm SH 14:15”) that match the table.
Recommended defaults
• Structure Length: 10–20 for intraday; 20–40 for swing.
• Entry Fib for Signals: 0.5 to start; try 0.3 in stronger trends and 0.6 in choppier markets.
• One Signal Per Zone: ON (prevents over trading).
• Zone Display: Both.
• Fib Lines: Keep 0.3/0.5/0.7 on; turn on 0 and 1 only if you need anchors.
Alerts
Two alert conditions are available:
• BUY signal – fires when a with trend bullish bounce at the selected fib occurs inside a bullish zone.
• SELL signal – fires when a with trend bearish bounce at the selected fib occurs inside a bearish zone.
Create alerts from the chart’s Alerts panel and select the desired condition. Use Once Per Bar Close to avoid intrabar flicker.
Notes & tips
• Swing dots are confirmed only after Structure Length bars, so they plot back in time; zones built from these confirmed swings do not repaint (though they extend as new bars form).
• If you don’t see a BUY where you expect one, check: (1) Is the active zone bullish? (2) Did the candle’s low actually pierce the selected fib and close above it? (3) Is One Signal Per Zone suppressing a second entry?
• You can hide visual clutter by reducing Show Last to 1–3 while keeping Display All Zones off.
Glossary
• CHOCH (Change of Character): A shift where price breaks beyond the last opposite swing while local momentum flips.
• BOS (Break of Structure): A cleaner break beyond the prior swing level in the current momentum direction.
• MSS: Either CHOCH or BOS – any event that spawns a new zone.
Extension ideas (optional)
• Add fib extensions (1.272 / 1.618) for target lines.
• Zone quality score using ATR normalization to filter weak impulses.
• HTF filter to only accept zones aligned with a higher timeframe trend.

BOCS AdaptiveBOCS Adaptive Strategy - Automated Volatility Breakout System
WHAT THIS STRATEGY DOES:
This is an automated trading strategy that detects consolidation patterns through volatility analysis and executes trades when price breaks out of these channels. Take-profit and stop-loss levels are calculated dynamically using Average True Range (ATR) to adapt to current market volatility. The strategy closes positions partially at the first profit target and exits the remainder at the second target or stop loss.
TECHNICAL METHODOLOGY:
Price Normalization Process:
The strategy begins by normalizing price to create a consistent measurement scale. It calculates the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined lookback period (default 100 bars). The current close price is then normalized using the formula: (close - lowest_low) / (highest_high - lowest_low). This produces values between 0 and 1, allowing volatility analysis to work consistently across different instruments and price levels.
Volatility Detection:
A 14-period standard deviation is applied to the normalized price series. Standard deviation measures how much prices deviate from their average - higher values indicate volatility expansion, lower values indicate consolidation. The strategy uses ta.highestbars() and ta.lowestbars() functions to track when volatility reaches peaks and troughs over the detection length period (default 14 bars).
Channel Formation Logic:
When volatility crosses from a high level to a low level, this signals the beginning of a consolidation phase. The strategy records this moment using ta.crossover(upper, lower) and begins tracking the highest and lowest prices during the consolidation. These become the channel boundaries. The duration between the crossover and current bar must exceed 10 bars minimum to avoid false channels from brief volatility spikes. Channels are drawn using box objects with the recorded high/low boundaries.
Breakout Signal Generation:
Two detection modes are available:
Strong Closes Mode (default): Breakout occurs when the candle body midpoint math.avg(close, open) exceeds the channel boundary. This filters out wick-only breaks.
Any Touch Mode: Breakout occurs when the close price exceeds the boundary.
When price closes above the upper channel boundary, a bullish breakout signal generates. When price closes below the lower boundary, a bearish breakout signal generates. The channel is then removed from the chart.
ATR-Based Risk Management:
The strategy uses request.security() to fetch ATR values from a specified timeframe, which can differ from the chart timeframe. For example, on a 5-minute chart, you can use 1-minute ATR for more responsive calculations. The ATR is calculated using ta.atr(length) with a user-defined period (default 14).
Exit levels are calculated at the moment of breakout:
Long Entry Price = Upper channel boundary
Long TP1 = Entry + (ATR × TP1 Multiplier)
Long TP2 = Entry + (ATR × TP2 Multiplier)
Long SL = Entry - (ATR × SL Multiplier)
For short trades, the calculation inverts:
Short Entry Price = Lower channel boundary
Short TP1 = Entry - (ATR × TP1 Multiplier)
Short TP2 = Entry - (ATR × TP2 Multiplier)
Short SL = Entry + (ATR × SL Multiplier)
Trade Execution Logic:
When a breakout occurs, the strategy checks if trading hours filter is satisfied (if enabled) and if position size equals zero (no existing position). If volume confirmation is enabled, it also verifies that current volume exceeds 1.2 times the 20-period simple moving average.
If all conditions are met:
strategy.entry() opens a position using the user-defined number of contracts
strategy.exit() immediately places a stop loss order
The code monitors price against TP1 and TP2 levels on each bar
When price reaches TP1, strategy.close() closes the specified number of contracts (e.g., if you enter with 3 contracts and set TP1 close to 1, it closes 1 contract). When price reaches TP2, it closes all remaining contracts. If stop loss is hit first, the entire position exits via the strategy.exit() order.
Volume Analysis System:
The strategy uses ta.requestUpAndDownVolume(timeframe) to fetch up volume, down volume, and volume delta from a specified timeframe. Three display modes are available:
Volume Mode: Shows total volume as bars scaled relative to the 20-period average
Comparison Mode: Shows up volume and down volume as separate bars above/below the channel midline
Delta Mode: Shows net volume delta (up volume - down volume) as bars, positive values above midline, negative below
The volume confirmation logic compares breakout bar volume to the 20-period SMA. If volume ÷ average > 1.2, the breakout is classified as "confirmed." When volume confirmation is enabled in settings, only confirmed breakouts generate trades.
INPUT PARAMETERS:
Strategy Settings:
Number of Contracts: Fixed quantity to trade per signal (1-1000)
Require Volume Confirmation: Toggle to only trade signals with volume >120% of average
TP1 Close Contracts: Exact number of contracts to close at first target (1-1000)
Use Trading Hours Filter: Toggle to restrict trading to specified session
Trading Hours: Session input in HHMM-HHMM format (e.g., "0930-1600")
Main Settings:
Normalization Length: Lookback bars for high/low calculation (1-500, default 100)
Box Detection Length: Period for volatility peak/trough detection (1-100, default 14)
Strong Closes Only: Toggle between body midpoint vs close price for breakout detection
Nested Channels: Allow multiple overlapping channels vs single channel at a time
ATR TP/SL Settings:
ATR Timeframe: Source timeframe for ATR calculation (1, 5, 15, 60, etc.)
ATR Length: Smoothing period for ATR (1-100, default 14)
Take Profit 1 Multiplier: Distance from entry as multiple of ATR (0.1-10.0, default 2.0)
Take Profit 2 Multiplier: Distance from entry as multiple of ATR (0.1-10.0, default 3.0)
Stop Loss Multiplier: Distance from entry as multiple of ATR (0.1-10.0, default 1.0)
Enable Take Profit 2: Toggle second profit target on/off
VISUAL INDICATORS:
Channel boxes with semi-transparent fill showing consolidation zones
Green/red colored zones at channel boundaries indicating breakout areas
Volume bars displayed within channels using selected mode
TP/SL lines with labels showing both price level and distance in points
Entry signals marked with up/down triangles at breakout price
Strategy status table showing position, contracts, P&L, ATR values, and volume confirmation status
HOW TO USE:
For 2-Minute Scalping:
Set ATR Timeframe to "1" (1-minute), ATR Length to 12, TP1 Multiplier to 2.0, TP2 Multiplier to 3.0, SL Multiplier to 1.5. Enable volume confirmation and strong closes only. Use trading hours filter to avoid low-volume periods.
For 5-15 Minute Day Trading:
Set ATR Timeframe to match chart or use 5-minute, ATR Length to 14, TP1 Multiplier to 2.0, TP2 Multiplier to 3.5, SL Multiplier to 1.2. Volume confirmation recommended but optional.
For Hourly+ Swing Trading:
Set ATR Timeframe to 15-30 minute, ATR Length to 14-21, TP1 Multiplier to 2.5, TP2 Multiplier to 4.0, SL Multiplier to 1.5. Volume confirmation optional, nested channels can be enabled for multiple setups.
BACKTEST CONSIDERATIONS:
Strategy performs best during trending or volatility expansion phases
Consolidation-heavy or choppy markets produce more false signals
Shorter timeframes require wider stop loss multipliers due to noise
Commission and slippage significantly impact performance on sub-5-minute charts
Volume confirmation generally improves win rate but reduces trade frequency
ATR multipliers should be optimized for specific instrument characteristics
COMPATIBLE MARKETS:
Works on any instrument with price and volume data including forex pairs, stock indices, individual stocks, cryptocurrency, commodities, and futures contracts. Requires TradingView data feed that includes volume for volume confirmation features to function.
KNOWN LIMITATIONS:
Stop losses execute via strategy.exit() and may not fill at exact levels during gaps or extreme volatility
request.security() on lower timeframes requires higher-tier TradingView subscription
False breakouts inherent to breakout strategies cannot be completely eliminated
Performance varies significantly based on market regime (trending vs ranging)
Partial closing logic requires sufficient position size relative to TP1 close contracts setting

Katz Impact Wave 🚀Overview of the Katz Impact Wave 🚀
The Katz Impact Wave is a momentum oscillator designed to visualize the battle between buyers and sellers. Instead of combining bullish and bearish pressure into a single line, it separates them into two distinct "Impact Waves."
Its primary goal is to generate clear trade signals by identifying when one side gains control, but only when the market has enough volatility to be considered "moving." This built-in filter helps to avoid signals during flat or choppy market conditions.
Indicator Components: Lines & Plots
Impact Waves & Fill
Green Wave (Total Up Impulses): This line represents the cumulative buying pressure. When this line is rising, it indicates that bulls are getting stronger.
Red Wave (Total Down Impulses): This line represents the cumulative selling pressure. When this line is rising, it indicates that bears are getting stronger.
Colored Fill: The shaded area between the two waves provides an at-a-glance view of who is in control.
Lime Fill: Bulls are dominant (Green Wave is above the Red Wave).
Red Fill: Bears are dominant (Red Wave is above the Green Wave).
Background Color
The background color provides crucial context about the market state according to the indicator's logic.
Green Background: The market is in a bullish state (Green Wave is dominant) AND the Rate of Change (ROC) filter confirms the market is actively moving.
Red Background: The market is in a bearish state (Red Wave is dominant) AND the ROC filter confirms the market is actively moving.
Gray Background: The market is considered "not moving" or is in a low-volatility chop. Signals that occur when the background is gray should be viewed with extreme caution or ignored.
Symbols & Pivot Lines
▲ Blue Triangle (Up): This is your long entry signal. It appears on the bar where the Green Wave crosses above the Red Wave while the market is moving.
▼ Orange Triangle (Down): This is your short entry signal. It appears on the bar where the Red Wave crosses above the Green Wave while the market is moving.
Pivot Lines (Solid Green/Red/White Lines): These lines mark confirmed peaks of exhaustion in momentum, not price.
Green Pivot Line: Marks a peak in the Green Wave, signaling buying momentum exhaustion. This can be a warning that the uptrend is losing steam.
Red Pivot Line: Marks a peak in the Red Wave, signaling selling momentum exhaustion. This can be a warning that the downtrend is losing steam.
▼ Yellow Triangle (Compression): This rare signal appears when buying and selling exhaustion pivots happen at the same level. It signifies a point of extreme indecision or equilibrium that often occurs before a major price expansion.
Trading Rules & Strategy
This indicator provides entry signals but does not provide explicit Take Profit or Stop Loss levels. You must use your own risk management rules.
Long Trade Rules
Entry Signal: Wait for a blue ▲ triangle to appear at the top of the indicator panel.
Confirmation: Ensure the background color is green, confirming the market is in a bullish, moving state.
Action: Enter a long (buy) trade at the open of the next candle after the signal appears.
Short Trade Rules
Entry Signal: Wait for an orange ▼ triangle to appear at the bottom of the indicator panel.
Confirmation: Ensure the background color is red, confirming the market is in a bearish, moving state.
Action: Enter a short (sell) trade at the open of the next candle after the signal appears.
Take Profit (TP) & Stop Loss (SL) Ideas
You must develop and test your own exit strategy. Here are some common approaches:
Stop Loss:
Place a stop loss below the most recent significant swing low on the price chart for a long trade, or above the recent swing high for a short trade.
Use an ATR (Average True Range) based stop, such as 2x the ATR value below your entry for a long, to account for market volatility.
Take Profit:
Opposite Signal: The simplest exit is to close your trade when the opposite signal appears (e.g., close a long trade when a short signal ▼ appears).
Momentum Exhaustion: For a long trade, consider taking partial or full profit when a green Pivot Line appears, signaling that buying momentum is peaking.
Fixed Risk/Reward: Use a predetermined risk/reward ratio (e.g., 1:1.5 or 1:2).

Pairs Trading Scanner [BackQuant]Pairs Trading Scanner
What it is
This scanner analyzes the relationship between your chart symbol and a chosen pair symbol in real time. It builds a normalized “spread” between them, tracks how tightly they move together (correlation), converts the spread into a Z-Score (how far from typical it is), and then prints clear LONG / SHORT / EXIT prompts plus an at-a-glance dashboard with the numbers that matter.
Why pairs at all?
Markets co-move. When two assets are statistically related, their relationship (the spread) tends to oscillate around a mean.
Pairs trading doesn’t require calling overall market direction you trade the relative mispricing between two instruments.
This scanner gives you a robust, visual way to find those dislocations, size their significance, and structure the trade.
How it works (plain English)
Step 1 Pick a partner: Select the Pair Symbol to compare against your chart symbol. The tool fetches synchronized prices for both.
Step 2 Build a spread: Choose a Spread Method that defines “relative value” (e.g., Log Spread, Price Ratio, Return Difference, Price Difference). Each lens highlights a different flavor of divergence.
Step 3 Validate relationship: A rolling Correlation checks if the pair is moving together enough to be tradable. If correlation is weak, the scanner stands down.
Step 4 Standardize & score: The spread is normalized (mean & variability over a lookback) to form a Z-Score . Large absolute Z means “stretched,” small means “near fair.”
Step 5 Signals: When the Z-Score crosses user-defined thresholds with sufficient correlation , entries print:
LONG = long chart symbol / short pair symbol,
SHORT = short chart symbol / long pair symbol,
EXIT = mean reversion into the exit zone or correlation failure.
Core concepts (the three pillars)
Spread Method Your definition of “distance” between the two series.
Guidance:
Log Spread: Focuses on proportional differences; robust when prices live on different scales.
Price Ratio: Classic relative value; good when you care about “X per Y.”
Return Difference: Emphasizes recent performance gaps; nimble for momentum-to-mean plays.
Price Difference: Straight subtraction; intuitive for similar-scale assets (e.g., two ETFs).
Correlation A rolling score of co-movement. The scanner requires it to be above your Min Correlation before acting, so you’re not trading random divergence.
Z-Score “How abnormal is today’s spread?” Positive = chart richer than pair; negative = cheaper. Thresholds define entries/exits with transparent, statistical context.
What you’ll see on the chart
Correlation plot (blue line) with a dashed Min Correlation guide. Above the line = green zone for signals; below = hands off.
Z-Score plot (white line) with colored, dashed Entry bands and dotted Exit bands. Zero line for mean.
Normalized spread (yellow) for a quick “shape read” of recent divergence swings.
Signal markers :
LONG (green label) when Z < –Entry and corr OK,
SHORT (red label) when Z > +Entry and corr OK,
EXIT (gray label) when Z returns inside the Exit band or correlation drops below the floor.
Background tint for active state (faint green for long-spread stance, faint red for short-spread stance).
The two built-in dashboards
Statistics Table (top-right)
Pair Symbol Your chosen partner.
Correlation Live value vs. your minimum.
Z-Score How stretched the spread is now.
Current / Pair Prices Real-time anchors.
Signal State NEUTRAL / LONG / SHORT.
Price Ratio Context for ratio-style setups.
Analysis Table (bottom-right)
Avg Correlation Typical co-movement level over your window.
Max |Z| The recent extremes of dislocation.
Spread Volatility How “lively” the spread has been.
Trade Signal A human-readable prompt (e.g., “LONG A / SHORT B” or “NO TRADE” / “LOW CORRELATION”).
Risk Level LOW / MEDIUM / HIGH based on current stretch (absolute Z).
Signals logic (plain English)
Entry (LONG): The spread is unusually negative (chart cheaper vs pair) and correlation is healthy. Expect mean reversion upward in the spread: long chart, short pair.
Entry (SHORT): The spread is unusually positive (chart richer vs pair) and correlation is healthy. Expect mean reversion downward in the spread: short chart, long pair.
Exit: The spread relaxes back toward normal (inside your exit band), or correlation deteriorates (relationship no longer trusted).
A quick, repeatable workflow
1) Choose your pair in context (same sector/theme or known macro link). Think: “Do these two plausibly co-move?”
2) Pick a spread lens that matches your narrative (ratio for relative value, returns for short-term performance gaps, etc.).
3) Confirm correlation is above your floor no corr, no trade.
4) Wait for a stretch (Z beyond Entry band) and a printed LONG / SHORT .
5) Manage to the mean (EXIT band) or correlation failure; let the scanners’ state/labels keep you honest.
Settings that matter (and why)
Spread Method Defines the “mispricing” you care about.
Correlation Period Longer = steadier regime read, shorter = snappier to regime change.
Z-Score Period The window that defines “normal” for the spread; it sets the yardstick.
Use Percentage Returns Normalizes series when using return-based logic; keep on for mixed-scale assets.
Entry / Exit Thresholds Set your stretch and your target reversion zone. Wider entries = rarer but stronger signals.
Minimum Correlation The gatekeeper. Raising it favors quality over quantity.
Choosing pairs (practical cheat sheet)
Same family: two index ETFs, two oil-linked names, two gold miners, two L1 tokens.
Hedge & proxy: stock vs. sector ETF, BTC vs. BTC index, WTI vs. energy ETF.
Cross-venue or cross-listing: instruments that are functionally the same exposure but price differently intraday.
Reading the cues like a pro
Divergence shape: The yellow normalized spread helps you see rhythm fast spike and snap-back versus slow grind.
Corr-first discipline: Don’t fight the “Min Correlation” line. Good pairs trading starts with a relationship you can trust.
Exit humility: When Z re-centers, let the EXIT do its job. The edge is the journey to the mean, not overstaying it.
Frequently asked (quick answers)
“Long/Short means what exactly?”
LONG = long the chart symbol and short the pair symbol.
SHORT = short the chart symbol and long the pair symbol.
“Do I need same price scales?” No. The spread methods normalize in different ways; choose the one that fits your use case (log/ratio are great for mixed scales).
“What if correlation falls mid-trade?” The scanner will neutralize the state and print EXIT . Relationship first; trade second.
Field notes & patterns
Snap-back days: After a one-sided session, return-difference spreads often flag cleaner intraday mean reversions.
Macro rotations: Ratio spreads shine during sector re-weights (e.g., value vs. growth ETFs); look for steady corr + elevated |Z|.
Event bleed-through: If one symbol reacts to news and its partner lags, Z often flags a high-quality, short-horizon re-centering.

The scanner is designed to keep you systematic: require relationship (correlation), quantify dislocation (Z-Score), act when stretched, stand down when it normalizes or the relationship degrades. It’s a full, visual loop for relative-value trading that stays out of your way when it should and gets loud only when the numbers line up.
BioSwarm Imprinter™BioSwarm Imprinter™ — Agent-Based Consensus for Traders
What it is
BioSwarm Imprinter™ is a non-repainting, agent-based sentiment oscillator. It fuses many short-to-medium lookback “opinions” into one 0–100 consensus line that is easy to read at a glance (50 = neutral, >55 bullish bias, <45 bearish bias). The engine borrows from swarm intelligence: many simple voters (agents) adapt their influence over time based on how well they’ve been predicting price, so the crowd gets smarter as conditions change.
Use it to:
• Detect emerging trends sooner without overreacting to noise.
• Filter mean-reversion vs continuation opportunities.
• Gate entries with a confidence score that reflects both strength and persistence of the move.
• Combine with your execution tools (VWAP/ORB/levels) as a state filter rather than a trade signal by itself.
⸻
Why it’s different
• Swarm learning: Each agent improves or decays its “fitness” depending on whether its vote matched the next bar’s direction. High-fitness agents matter more; weak agents fade.
• Multi-horizon by design: The crowd is composed of fixed, simple lookbacks spread from lenMin to lenMax. You get a blended, robust view instead of a single fragile parameter.
• Two complementary lenses: Each agent evaluates RSI-style balance (via Wilder’s RMA) and momentum (EMA deviation). You decide the weight of each.
• No repaint, no MTF pitfalls: Everything runs on the chart’s timeframe with bar-close confirmation; no request.security() or forward references.
• Actionable UI: A clean consensus line, optional regime background, confidence heat, and triangle markers when thresholds are crossed.
⸻
What you see on the chart
• Consensus line (0–100): Smoothed to your preference; color/area makes bull/bear zones obvious.
• Regime coloring (optional): Light green in bull zone, light red in bear zone; neutral otherwise.
• Confidence heat: A small gauge/number (0–100) that combines distance from neutral and recent persistence.
• Markers (optional): Triangles when consensus crosses up through your bull threshold (e.g., 55) or down through your bear threshold (e.g., 45).
• Info panel (optional): Consensus value, regime, confidence, number of agents, and basic diagnostics.
⸻
How it works (under the hood)
1. Horizon bins: The range is divided into numBins. Each bin has a fixed, simple integer length (crucial for Pine’s safety rules).
2. Per-bin features (computed every bar):
• RSI-style balance using Wilder’s RMA (not ta.rsi()), then mapped to −1…+1.
• Momentum as (close − EMA(L)) / EMA(L) (dimensionless drift).
3. Agent vote: For its assigned bin, an agent forms a weighted score: score = wRSI*RSI_like + wMOM*Momentum. A small dead-band near zero suppresses chop; votes are +1/−1/0.
4. Fitness update (bar close): If the agent’s previous vote agreed with the next bar’s direction, multiply its fitness by learnGain; otherwise by learnPain. Fitness is clamped so it never explodes or dies.
5. Consensus: Weighted average of all votes using fitness as weights → map to 0–100 and smooth with EMA.
Why it doesn’t repaint:
• No future references, no MTF resampling, fitness updates only on confirmed bars.
• All TA primitives (RMA/EMA/deltas) are computed every bar unconditionally.
⸻
Signals & confidence
• Bullish bias: consensus ≥ bullThr (e.g., 55).
• Bearish bias: consensus ≤ bearThr (e.g., 45).
• Confidence (0–100):
• Distance score: how far consensus is from 50.
• Momentum score: how strong the recent change is versus its recent average.
• Combined into a single gate; start filtering entries at ≥60 for higher quality.
Tip: For range sessions, raise thresholds (60/40) and increase smoothing; for momentum sessions, lower smoothing and keep thresholds at 55/45.
⸻
Inputs you’ll actually tune
• Agents & horizons:
• N_agents (e.g., 64–128)
• lenMin / lenMax (e.g., 6–30 intraday, 10–60 swing)
• numBins (e.g., 12–24)
• Weights & smoothing:
• wRSI vs wMOM (e.g., 0.7/0.3 for FX & indices; 0.6/0.4 for crypto)
• deadBand (0.03–0.08)
• consSmooth (3–8)
• Thresholds & hygiene:
• bullThr/bearThr (55/45 default)
• cooldownBars to avoid signal spam
⸻
Playbooks (ready-to-use)
1) Breakout / Trend continuation
• Timeframe: 15m–1h for day/swing.
• Filter: Take longs only when consensus > 55 and confidence ≥ 60.
• Execution: Use your ORB/VWAP/pullback trigger for entry. Trail with swing lows or 1.5×ATR. Exit on a close back under 50 or when a bearish signal prints.
2) Mean reversion (fade)
• When: Sideways days or low-volatility clusters.
• Setup: Increase deadBand and consSmooth.
• Signal: Bearish fades when consensus rolls over below ≈55 but stays above 50; bullish fades when it rolls up above ≈45 but stays below 50.
• Targets: The neutral zone (~50) as the first take-profit.
3) Multi-TF alignment
• Keep BioSwarm on 1H for bias, execute on 5–15m:
• Only take entries in the direction of the 1H consensus.
• Skip counter-bias scalps unless confidence is very low (explicit mean-reversion plan).
⸻
Integrations that work
• DynamoSent Pro+ (macro bias): Only act when macro bias and swarm consensus agree.
• ORB + Session VWAP Pro: Trade London/NY ORB breakouts that retest while consensus >55 (long) or <45 (short).
• Levels/Orderflow: BioSwarm is your “go / no-go”; execution stays with your usual triggers.
⸻
Quick start
1. Drop the indicator on a 1H chart.
2. Start with: N_agents=64, lenMin=6, lenMax=30, numBins=16, deadBand=0.06, consSmooth=5, thresholds 55/45.
3. Trade only when confidence ≥ 60.
4. Add your favorite execution tool (VWAP/levels/OR) for entries & exits.
⸻
Non-repainting & safety notes
• No request.security(); no hidden lookahead.
• Bar-close confirmation for fitness and signals.
• All TA calls are unconditional (no “sometimes called” warnings).
• No series-length inputs to RSI/EMA — we use RMA/EMA formulas that accept fixed simple ints per bin.
⸻
Known limits & tips
• Too many signals? Raise deadBand, increase consSmooth, widen thresholds to 60/40.
• Too few signals? Lower deadBand, reduce consSmooth, narrow thresholds to 53/47.
• Over-fitting risk: Keep learnGain/learnPain modest (e.g., ×1.04 / ×0.96).
• Compute load: Large N_agents × numBins is heavier; scale to your device.
⸻
Example recipes
EURUSD 1H (swing):
lenMin=8, lenMax=34, numBins=16, wRSI=0.7, wMOM=0.3, deadBand=0.06, consSmooth=6, thr=55/45
Buy breakouts when consensus >55 and confidence ≥60; confirm with 5–15m pullback to VWAP or level.
SPY 15m (US session):
lenMin=6, lenMax=24, numBins=12, consSmooth=4, deadBand=0.05
On trend days, stay with longs as long as consensus >55; add on shallow pullbacks.
BTC 1H (24/7):
Increase momentum weight: wRSI=0.6, wMOM=0.4, extend lenMax to ~50. Use dynamic stops (ATR) and partials on strong verticals.
⸻
Final word
BioSwarm is a state engine: it tells you when the market is primed to continue or mean-revert. Pair it with your entries and risk framework to turn that state into trades. If you’d like, I can supply a companion strategy template that consumes the consensus and back-tests the three playbooks (Breakout/Fade/Flip) with standard risk management.
The Best Strategy Template[LuciTech]Hello Traders,
This is a powerful and flexible strategy template designed to help you create, backtest, and deploy your own custom trading strategies. This template is not a ready-to-use strategy but a framework that simplifies the development process by providing a wide range of pre-built features and functionalities.
What It Does
The LuciTech Strategy Template provides a robust foundation for building your own automated trading strategies. It includes a comprehensive set of features that are essential for any serious trading strategy, allowing you to focus on your unique trading logic without having to code everything from scratch.
Key Features
The LuciTech Strategy Template integrates several powerful features to enhance your strategy development:
•
Advanced Risk Management: This includes robust controls for defining your Risk Percentage per Trade, setting a precise Risk-to-Reward Ratio, and implementing an intelligent Breakeven Stop-Loss mechanism that automatically adjusts your stop to the entry price once a specified profit threshold is reached. These elements are crucial for capital preservation and consistent profitability.
•
Flexible Stop-Loss Options: The template offers adaptable stop-loss calculation methods, allowing you to choose between ATR-Based Stop-Loss, which dynamically adjusts to market volatility, and Candle-Based Stop-Loss, which uses structural price points from previous candles. This flexibility ensures the stop-loss strategy aligns with diverse trading styles.
•
Time-Based Filtering: Optimize your strategy's performance by restricting trading activity to specific hours of the day. This feature allows you to avoid unfavorable market conditions or focus on periods of higher liquidity and volatility relevant to your strategy.
•
Customizable Webhook Alerts: Stay informed with advanced notification capabilities. The template supports sending detailed webhook alerts in various JSON formats (Standard, Telegram, Concise Telegram) to external platforms, facilitating real-time monitoring and potential integration with automated trading systems.
•
Comprehensive Visual Customization: Enhance your analytical clarity with extensive visual options. You can customize the colors of entry, stop-loss, and take-profit lines, and effectively visualize market inefficiencies by displaying and customizing Fair Value Gap (FVG) boxes directly on your chart.
How It Does It
The LuciTech Strategy Template is meticulously crafted using Pine Script, TradingView's powerful and expressive programming language. The underlying architecture is designed for clarity and modularity, allowing for straightforward integration of your unique trading signals. At its core, the template operates by taking user-defined entry and exit conditions and then applying a sophisticated layer of risk management, position sizing, and trade execution logic.
For instance, when a longCondition or shortCondition is met, the template dynamically calculates the appropriate position size. This calculation is based on your specified risk_percent of equity and the stop_distance (the distance between your entry price and the calculated stop-loss level). This ensures that each trade adheres to your predefined risk parameters, a critical component of disciplined trading.
The flexibility in stop-loss calculation is achieved through a switch statement that evaluates the sl_type input. Whether you choose an ATR-based stop, which adapts to market volatility, or a candle-based stop, which uses structural price points, the template seamlessly integrates these methods. The ATR calculation itself is further refined by allowing various smoothing methods (RMA, SMA, EMA, WMA), providing granular control over how volatility is measured.
Time-based filtering is implemented by comparing the current bar's time with user-defined start_hour, start_minute, end_hour, and end_minute inputs. This allows the strategy to activate or deactivate trading during specific market sessions or periods of the day, a valuable tool for optimizing performance and avoiding unfavorable conditions.
Furthermore, the template incorporates advanced webhook alert functionality. When a trade is executed, a customizable JSON message is formatted based on your webhook_format selection (Standard, Telegram, or Concise Telegram) and sent via alert function. This enables seamless integration with external services for real-time notifications or even automated trade execution through third-party platforms.
Visual feedback is paramount for understanding strategy behavior. The template utilizes plot and fill functions to clearly display entry prices, stop-loss levels, and take-profit targets directly on the chart. Customizable colors for these elements, along with dedicated options for Fair Value Gap (FVG) boxes, enhance the visual analysis during backtesting and live trading, making it easier to interpret the strategy's actions.
How It's Original
The LuciTech Strategy Template distinguishes itself in the crowded landscape of TradingView scripts through its unique combination of integrated, advanced risk management features, highly flexible stop-loss methodologies, and sophisticated alerting capabilities, all within a user-friendly and modular framework. While many templates offer basic entry/exit signal integration, LuciTech goes several steps further by providing a robust, ready-to-use infrastructure for managing the entire trade lifecycle once a signal is generated.
Unlike templates that might require users to piece together various risk management components or code complex stop-loss logic from scratch, LuciTech offers these critical functionalities out-of-the-box. The inclusion of dynamic position sizing based on a user-defined risk percentage, a configurable risk-to-reward ratio, and an intelligent breakeven mechanism significantly elevates its utility. This comprehensive approach to capital preservation and profit targeting is a cornerstone of professional trading and is often overlooked or simplified in generic templates.
Furthermore, the template's provision for multiple stop-loss calculation types—ATR-based for volatility adaptation, and candle-based for structural support/resistance—demonstrates a deep understanding of diverse trading strategies. The underlying code for these calculations is already implemented, saving developers considerable time and effort. The subtle yet powerful inclusion of FVG (Fair Value Gap) related inputs also hints at advanced price action concepts, offering a sophisticated layer of analysis and execution that is not commonly found in general-purpose templates.
The advanced webhook alerting system, with its support for various JSON formats tailored for platforms like Telegram, showcases an originality in catering to the needs of modern, automated trading setups. This moves beyond simple TradingView pop-up alerts, enabling seamless integration with external systems for real-time trade monitoring and execution. This level of external connectivity and customizable data output is a significant differentiator.
In essence, the LuciTech Strategy Template is original not just in its individual features, but in how these features are cohesively integrated to form a powerful, opinionated, yet highly adaptable system. It empowers traders to focus their creative energy on developing their core entry/exit signals, confident that the underlying framework will handle the complexities of risk management, trade execution, and external communication with precision and flexibility. It's a comprehensive solution designed to accelerate the development of robust and professional trading strategies.
How to Modify the Logic to Apply Your Strategy
The LuciTech Strategy Template is designed with modularity in mind, making it exceptionally straightforward to integrate your unique trading strategy logic. The template provides a clear separation between the core strategy management (risk, position sizing, exits) and the entry signal generation. This allows you to easily plug in your own buy and sell conditions without altering the robust underlying framework.
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to adapt the template to your specific trading strategy:
1.
Locate the Strategy Logic Section:
Open the Pine Script editor in TradingView and navigate to the section clearly marked with the comment //Strategy Logic Example:. This is where the template’s placeholder entry conditions (a simple moving average crossover) are defined.
2.
Define Your Custom Entry Conditions:
Within this section, you will find variables such as longCondition and shortCondition. These are boolean variables that determine when a long or short trade should be initiated. Replace the existing example logic with your own custom buy and sell conditions. Your conditions can be based on any combination of indicators, price action patterns, candlestick formations, or other market analysis techniques. For example, if your strategy involves a combination of RSI and MACD, you would define longCondition as (rsi > 50 and macd_line > signal_line) and shortCondition as (rsi < 50 and macd_line < signal_line).
3.
Leverage the Template’s Built-in Features:
Once your longCondition and shortCondition are defined, the rest of the template automatically takes over. The integrated risk management module will calculate the appropriate position size based on your Risk % input and the chosen Stop Loss Type. The Risk:Reward ratio will determine your take-profit levels, and the Breakeven at R feature will manage your stop-loss dynamically. The time filter (Use Time Filter) will ensure your trades only occur within your specified hours, and the webhook alerts will notify you of trade executions.
Apex Edge – Wolfe Wave HunterApex Edge – Wolfe Wave Hunter
The modern Wolfe Wave, rebuilt for the algo era
This isn’t just another Wolfe Wave indicator. Classic Wolfe detection is rigid, outdated, and rarely tradable. Apex Edge – Wolfe Wave Hunter re-engineers the pattern into a modern, SMC-driven model that adapts to today’s liquidity-dominated markets. It’s not about drawing pretty shapes – it’s about extracting precision entries with asymmetric risk-to-reward potential.
🔎 What it does
Automatic Wolfe Wave Detection
Identifies bullish and bearish Wolfe Wave structures using pivot-based logic, symmetry filters, and slope tolerances.
Channel Glow Zones
Highlights the Wolfe channel and projects it forward into the future (bars are user-defined). This allows you to see the full potential of the trade before price even begins its move.
Stop Loss (SL) & Entry Arrow
At the completion of Wave 5, the algo prints a Stop Loss line and a tiny entry arrow (green for bullish, red for bearish). but the colours can be changed in user settings. This is the “execution point” — where the Wolfe setup becomes tradable.
Target Projection Lines
TP1 (EPA): Derived from the traditional 1–4 line projection.
TP2 (1.272 Fib): Optional secondary profit target.
TP3 (1.618 Fib): Optional extended target for large runners.
All TP lines extend into the future, so you can track them as price evolves.
Volume Confirmation (optional)
A relative volume filter ensures Wave 5 is formed with meaningful market participation before a setup is confirmed.
Alerts (ready out of the box)
Custom alerts can be fired whenever a bullish or bearish Wolfe Wave is confirmed. No need to babysit the charts — let the script notify you.
⚙️ Customisation & User Control
Every trader’s market and style is different. That’s why Wolfe Wave Hunter is fully customisable:
Arrow Colours & Size
Works on both light and dark charts. Choose your own bullish/bearish entry arrow colours for maximum visibility.
Tolerance Levels
Adjust symmetry and slope tolerance to refine how strict the channel rules are.
Tighter settings = fewer but cleaner zones.
Looser settings = more frequent setups, but with slightly lower structural quality.
Channel Glow Projection
Define how many bars forward the channel is drawn. This controls how far into the future your Wolfe zones are extended.
Stop Loss Line Length
Keep the SL visible without it extending infinitely across your chart.
Take Profit Line Colors
Each TP projection can be styled to your preference, allowing you to clearly separate TP1, TP2, and TP3.
This isn’t a one-size-fits-all tool. You can shape Wolfe detection logic to match the pairs, timeframes, and market conditions you trade most.
🚀 Why it’s different
Classic Wolfe waves are rare — this script adapts the model into something practical and tradeable in modern markets.
Liquidity-aligned — many setups align with structural sweeps of Wave 3 liquidity before driving into profit.
Entry built-in — most Wolfe scripts only draw the structure. Wolfe Wave Hunter gives you a precise entry point, SL, and projected TPs.
Backtest-friendly — you’ll quickly discover which assets respect Wolfe waves and which don’t, creating your own high-probability Wolfe watchlist.
⚠️ Limitations & Disclaimer
Not all markets respect Wolfe Waves. Some FX pairs, metals, and indices respect the structure beautifully; others do not. Backtest and create your own shortlist.
No guaranteed sweeps. Many entries occur after a liquidity sweep of Wave 3, but not all. The algo is designed to detect Wolfe completion, not enforce textbook liquidity rules.
Probabilistic, not predictive. Wolfe setups don’t win every time. Always use risk management.
High-RR focus. This is not a high-frequency tool. It’s designed for precision, asymmetric setups where risk is small and reward potential is large.
✅ The Bottom Line
Apex Edge – Wolfe Wave Hunter is a modern reimagination of the Wolfe Wave. It blends structural geometry, liquidity dynamics, and algo-driven execution into a single tool that:
Detects the pattern automatically
Provides SL, entry, and TP levels
Offers alerts for hands-off trading
Allows deep customisation for different markets
When it hits, it delivers outstanding risk-to-reward. Backtest, refine your tolerances, and build your watchlist of assets where Wolfe structures consistently pay.
This isn’t just Wolfe detection — it’s Wolfe trading, rebuilt for the modern trader.
Developer Notes - As always with the Apex Edge Brand, user feedback and recommendations will always be respected. Simply drop us a message with your comments and we will endeavour to address your needs in future version updates.
MTF Stochastic Range FinderThis indicator compares Stochastic RSI from 2 timeframes to signal possible reversals. Default 5 minute and 2 minute. Both Stochastic RSIs are customizable.
Allows for 6 support/resistance lines and allows a tolerance to filter proximity to levels for entry.
Can filter price level by manual support/resistance levels and/or VWAP
oi + funding oscillator cryptosmartThe oi + funding oscillator cryptosmart is an advanced momentum tool designed to gauge sentiment in the crypto derivatives market. It combines Open Interest (OI) changes with Funding Rates, normalizes them into a single oscillator using a z-score, and identifies potential market extremes.
This provides traders with a powerful visual guide to spot when the market is over-leveraged (overheated) or when a significant deleveraging event has occurred (oversold), signaling potential reversals.
How It Works
Combined Data: The indicator tracks the rate of change in Open Interest and the value of Funding Rates.
Oscillator: It blends these two data points into a single, smoothed oscillator line that moves above and below a zero line.
Extreme Zones:
Overheated (Red Zone): When the oscillator enters the upper critical zone, it suggests excessive greed and high leverage, increasing the risk of a sharp correction (long squeeze). A cross below this level generates a potential sell signal.
Oversold (Green Zone): When the oscillator enters the lower critical zone, it indicates panic, liquidations, and a potential market bottom. A cross above this level generates a potential buy signal.
Trading Strategy & Timeframes
This oscillator is designed to be versatile, but its effectiveness can vary depending on the timeframe.
Optimal Timeframes (1H and 4H): The indicator has shown its highest effectiveness on the 1-hour and 4-hour charts. These timeframes are ideal for capturing significant shifts in market sentiment reflected in OI and funding data, filtering out short-term noise while still providing timely reversal signals.
Lower Timeframes (e.g., 1-min, 5-min, 15-min): On shorter timeframes, the oscillator is still a highly effective tool, but it is best used as a confluence factor within a broader trading system. Due to the increased noise on these charts, it is not recommended to use its signals in isolation. Instead, use it as a final argument for entry. For example, if your primary scalping strategy gives you a buy signal, you can check if the oscillator is also exiting the oversold (green) zone to add a powerful layer of confirmation to your trade.
Grand Slam Risk ManagementGrand Slam Risk Management (GSRM) Indicator
OVERVIEW
The Grand Slam Risk Management Indicator transforms complex position sizing calculations into real-time, visual risk metrics—enabling disciplined trading decisions without the emotional guesswork that destroys accounts. This comprehensive tool is designed for active day traders and swing traders who want to automate critical risk management calculations directly on their TradingView charts. 🚀
THE GRAND SLAM RISK MANAGEMENT STRATEGY
Core Philosophy
The Grand Slam Risk Management Strategy (GSRM) gets its name from baseball's ultimate scoring play: a grand slam can only be hit when three runners are already on base, requiring at least three prior successful at-bats (hits or walks) to create the opportunity. This perfectly embodies the GSRM philosophy—consistent "base hits" in trading create the foundation for larger wins while protecting your account from devastating losses. Just as baseball teams win championships through disciplined, consistent play rather than swinging for the fences every at-bat, successful traders build wealth through reliable, repeatable profits rather than chasing home runs that often result in strikeouts. ⚾
Strategy Framework
Capital Allocation : 💰
• Working Balance: Account balance minus PDT requirement ($25,000 minimum for margin accounts)
• Allocated Buying Power: Working balance × leverage (4:1 for day trading, 2:1 for swing, 1:1 for cash)
• Daily Profit Target: 5% of allocated buying power (default)
The Base Hit System : 🎯
• Daily profit target divided into 4 "base hits"
• Each base hit represents 25% of daily goal
• Max risk per trade: 50% of base hit target (maintains 2:1 reward/risk minimum)
• Daily max loss: 2 base hits (recoverable with 2 winning trades)
Three-Tier Profit Structure : 🚀
• Tier 1 (5%): Minimum acceptable profit - "Why else take the trade?"
• Tier 2 (10%): Solid win - the target "base hit"
• Tier 3 (20%): Home run - when momentum is strongly in your favor 🏠🏃
Position Sizing Levels : 📊
• Quarter Position (25% of max): Testing the waters, lower conviction setups
• Half Position (50% of max): Standard confidence trades
• Max Position (100%): High conviction, ideal setup conditions
INDICATOR FEATURES
Real-Time Calculations ⚡
• Dynamic Position Sizing: Automatically calculates share quantities based on account balance and current price
• Profit & Loss Targets: Displays dollar amounts for profit targets and stop-losses across all position sizes
• Risk Metrics: Shows daily profit goals, max loss thresholds, and P&L ratios
Advanced Stop-Loss Methods 🛡️
1. Percentage-Based Stops : Fixed 50% of profit target (maintains 2:1 reward/risk)
2. ATR-Based Stops : Dynamic stops that adapt to market volatility using Average True Range (ATR)
• Tier 1: 0.5× ATR (tight/scalping)
• Tier 2: 1.0× ATR (standard)
• Tier 3: 1.5× ATR (wide/trending)
Cost Basis Options 📈
• Last Close: Uses previous bar's closing price for stable calculations
• VWMA: Volume-Weighted Moving Average (default: 9) estimate cost-basis from recent volume-weighted price action
• SMA/EMA: Use Simple or Exponential Moving Average (default: 9) useful for planning entries at SMA/EMA cross-overs and bounces.
• VWAP: Volume-Weighted Average Price (default: daily) for entry point planning at bounce or break of VWAP.
* Ask/Bid: Entry point calculations based on current Ask or Bid price (only available on 1T charts)
Visual Risk Management 🔑
• Color-Coded P&L Ratio :
- Green (≤0.5): Conservative, favorable risk ✅
- Yellow (0.5-1.0): Balanced risk ⚠️
- Red (>1.0): Aggressive, requires higher win rate 🛑
• Position Size Color Coding : Green (quarter) → Yellow (half) → Red (max) for quick risk assessment
HOW TO USE THE GSRM INDICATOR
Initial Setup (One-Time Configuration) ⚙️
1. Set Account Balance: Enter your total trading account value
2. Configure PDT Protection: Enable for margin accounts ≥$25,000 to protect required funds
3. Select Leverage: 4:1 (day trading), 2:1 (swing), or 1:1 (cash account)
4. Adjust Risk Percentage: Default 5% of allocated buying power; reduce for conservative approach
Trading Workflow
Pre-Market Preparation: 🌅
1. Review daily profit target and max loss displayed in green/red
2. Note your base hit target - this is your standard trade goal
3. Check P&L ratio - ensure it's sustainable for your win rate
Trade Execution: 🚀
1. Assess Setup Quality :
• Strong setup → Consider half or max position 💪
• Decent setup → Quarter or half position 👍
• Testing idea → Quarter position only 🧪
2. Select Profit Tier Based on Market Conditions :
• Choppy market → Target Tier 1 (5%) 🌊
• Normal conditions → Target Tier 2 (10%) ➡️
• Strong momentum → Target Tier 3 (20%) 🚀
3. Choose Stop Method :
• Percentage stops: Best for stocks with clear support/resistance
• ATR stops: Better for volatile stocks or news-driven trades. WARNING: this may result in tighter stops, negatively affecting your P&L. To offset this effect, try increasing the number of base hits to achieve your daily profit target and recover from a daily max loss. Be sure the resultant P&L ratio is in the conservative range ≤0.5. This will allow you to adjust your per-trade P&L targets without reducing your daily profit target or increasing your max risk.
4. Execute Using Table Values :
• 🔎 Find your position size group (🟢quarter/🟡half/🔴max)
• 🔎 Find your profit target row (5%/10%/20%) for your position size group
• ⚠️ Do not exceed the share count and stop-loss values displayed ⚠️
Risk Management Rules 🛡️
Daily Limits : 🚨
• Stop trading after hitting daily max loss (prevent tilt/revenge trading)
• Stop trading when a low-risk, minimum-loss trade would exceed your daily max loss (prevent exceeding max)
• Stop trading if you fall below the Daily Profit Target after having achieved it (prevent tilt/revenge trading)
• Cold Market: Stop trading after reaching daily profit target (preserve gains) ❄️
• Hot Market: Three Strikes - stop trading after 3 total max loss trades in a day (prevent tilt/revenge trading) 🔥
Position Management : 📏
• Never exceed max position size shown (protects from overleverage)
• Use quarter positions when daily P&L is negative or below first profit goal (40% of target)
• Use half positions only while daily P&L is above first profit goal (40% of target)
• Use full positions only while daily P&L is above profit goal (100% of target)
A/B Testing Features 🧪
Stop-Loss Methods :
• Week 1: Use percentage-based stops
• Week 2: Use ATR-based stops
• Compare win rates and average losses to optimize
Cost Basis Models :
Pick the highest probable cost-basis and keep your entry position below the share count shown to protect from overleveraging your buying power.
⚠️ IMPORTANT: COST BASIS ESTIMATIONS ARE FOR RISK MANAGEMENT CALCULATIONS ONLY - DO NOT USE THIS INFORMATION TO EXECUTE BUY OR SELL ORDERS.
• Fast movers: Use Last Close for stability 🏃or Bid/Ask for real-time price updates (Bid/Ask is only available on 1T charts).
• Liquid stocks: Try VWMA for better entry estimation 💧
• Reversals/Break of VWAP: Use VWAP when anticipating an entry at the Volume-Weighted Average Price 🔄
• Reversals/Break SMA 200: Use SMA when anticipating an entry at the SMA 📉
• Momentum/Trending: Use EMA when anticipating an entry at the EMA bounce 📈
• Price Offset: Plus/Minus $1.00 in $0.10 increments to compensate for slippage, market orders, etc.
Track which method provides better fill estimates. There is no right or wrong choice here because it depends on your style of trading. You can also use the Price Offset option if you find it helps with consistency.
BEST PRACTICES ⭐
1. Start Conservative : Use quarter positions and default settings until familiar with the system 🐣
2. Track Results : Document whether you hit Tier 1, 2, or 3 targets 📝
3. Respect the Math : The calculations assume a 50%+ win rate - if yours is lower, reduce position sizes 🧮
4. Daily Review : Compare actual P&L to base hit targets to calibrate expectations 🔍
5. Adapt to Conditions : Use ATR stops in volatile markets, percentage stops in stable conditions 🌡️

CyberFX EMA21 Strategy (Pine v5)This is a simple indicator that can be used for a simple strategy. It follows the logic of the price always move back to the media, in that case an EMA(21). This give us an opportunity to achieve a better R/R. One important thing here is this indicator works better on trend markets. When the market is in consolidation mode it will show many signals so we need to pay attention and be patient. This indicator works better in 4H timeframes but it can used with other TFs.
The idea behind is:
for a bullish move when the price moves back to the EMA(21) we check the distance between the low value and the EMA(21) value. The best is when the price low crosses the EMA(21) from above. I am considering a 8 pips distance from the price low to the ema as a signal. Then I will wait for the new candle to move above the EMA(21) for a long entry. I also consider at least 50 pips for SL.
for a bearish move the idea is the same but we consider the price high crossing the EMA(21) and the new candle moving below the EMA.
I hope this can be useful and please leave your comment nad critics(but only the constructive one).
Have a safe trade
