Aynet- True Wick Projector for Non-Standard ChartsTechnical Explanation: "Data Projection and Synchronization"
This script is, at its core, a "data projection" tool. The fundamental technical problem it solves is compensating for the information loss that occurs when using different data visualization models.
1. The Core Problem: Information Loss
Standard Charts (Time-Based): Normal candlesticks are time-based. Each candle represents a fixed time interval (like 1 hour or 1 day) and displays the complete Open, High, Low, and Close (OHLC) data for that period. The "wicks" show the volatility and the extreme price points (the High and Low).
Non-Standard Charts (Price/Momentum-Based): Charts like Kagi, Renko, or Line Break filter out time. Their only concern is price movement. While one Renko box or Kagi line is forming, 10 or more time-based candles might have formed in the background. During this "noise filtering" process, the true high and low values (the wicks) from those underlying candles are lost.
The problem is this: A trader looking at a non-standard chart cannot see how high or low the price actually went while that block or line was forming. This is a critical loss of information regarding market volatility, support/resistance levels, and price rejection.
2. The Technical Solution: A "Dual Data Stream"
This script intelligently combines two different data streams to compensate for this information loss:
Main Stream (Current Chart): The open and close data from your active Kagi, Renko, etc., chart.
Secondary Stream (Projected Data): The high and low data from the underlying standard (time-based) chart.
3. The Code's Methodical Steps
Step 1: Identifying the Data Source (syminfo...)
This step precisely identifies the source for the secondary data stream. By using syminfo.prefix + ":" + syminfo.ticker (e.g., "NASDAQ:AAPL"), it guarantees that the data is pulled from the exact correct instrument and exchange.
Step 2: Data Request & "Lookahead" Synchronization (request.security)
This is the most critical part of the operation.
request.security(...): This is the function Pine Script uses to pull data from another dataset (the secondary stream) onto the current chart.
: This tells the function, "The only data I care about is the 'High' and 'Low' of the standard candle from that timeframe."
lookahead = barmerge.lookahead_on (The Critical Key): This command solves the "time paradox."
Normally (without this): request.security fetches data from the last completed bar. But as your Kagi bar is currently forming, the standard candle is also currently forming. This would cause the data to always be one bar behind (lag).
With lookahead_on: This permits the script to "look ahead" at the data from the currently forming, incomplete standard bar. Because of this, as your Kagi bar moves, the true wick data is updated in real-time. This achieves real-time synchronization.
Step 3: Visual Engineering (plotcandle)
After the script retrieves the data, it must "draw" it. However, it only wants to draw the wicks, not the candle bodies.
bodyTop and bodyBottom: First, it finds the top and bottom of the current Kagi bar's body (using math.max(open, close)).
Plotting the Upper Wick (Green):
It calls the plotcandle function and instructs it to draw a fake candle.
It fixes this fake candle's Open, Low, and Close (open, low, close) values to the top of the Kagi bar's body (bodyTop).
It only sets the High (high) value to the realHigh it fetched with request.security.
The result: A wick is drawn from the bodyTop level up to the realHigh level, with no visible body.
Plotting the Lower Wick (Red):
It applies the reverse logic.
It fixes the fake candle's Open, High, and Close values to the bottom of the Kagi bar's body (bodyBottom).
It only sets the Low (low) value to the realLow.
The result: A lower wick is drawn from bodyBottom down to realLow.
Invisibility (color.new(color.white, 100)):
In both plotcandle calls, the color (body color) and bordercolor are set to 100 transparency. This makes the "fake" candle bodies completely invisible, leaving only the colored wicks.
Conclusion (Technical Summary)
This script reclaims the volatility data (the wicks) that is naturally sacrificed by non-standard charts.
It achieves this with technical precision by creating a secondary data stream using request.security and synchronizing it with zero lag using the lookahead_on parameter.
Finally, it intelligently manipulates the plotcandle function (by creating invisible bodies) to project this lost data onto your Kagi/Renko chart as an "augmented reality" layer. This allows a trader to benefit from the clean, noise-filtered view of a non-standard chart without losing access to the full picture of market volatility.

Volume Cluster Heatmap [BackQuant]Volume Cluster Heatmap
A visualization tool that maps traded volume across price levels over a chosen lookback period. It highlights where the market builds balance through heavy participation and where it moves efficiently through low-volume zones. By combining a heatmap, volume profile, and high/low volume node detection, this indicator reveals structural areas of support, resistance, and liquidity that drive price behavior.
What Are Volume Clusters?
A volume cluster is a horizontal aggregation of traded volume at specific price levels, showing where market participants concentrated their buying and selling.
High Volume Nodes (HVN) : Price levels with significant trading activity; often act as support or resistance.
Low Volume Nodes (LVN) : Price levels with little trading activity; price moves quickly through these areas, reflecting low liquidity.
Volume clusters help identify key structural zones, reveal potential reversals, and gauge market efficiency by highlighting where the market is balanced versus areas of thin liquidity.
By creating heatmaps, profiles, and highlighting high and low volume nodes (HVNs and LVNs), it allows traders to see where the market builds balance and where it moves efficiently through thin liquidity zones.
Example: Bitcoin breaking away from the high-volume zone near 118k and moving cleanly through the low-volume pocket around 113k–115k, illustrating how markets seek efficiency:
Core Features
Visual Analysis Components:
Heatmap Display : Displays volume intensity as colored boxes, lines, or a combination for a dynamic view of market participation.
Volume Profile Overlay : Shows cumulative volume per price level along the right-hand side of the chart.
HVN & LVN Labels : Marks high and low volume nodes with color-coded lines and labels.
Customizable Colors & Transparency : Adjust high and low volume colors and minimum transparency for clear differentiation.
Session Reset & Timeframe Control : Dynamically resets clusters at the start of new sessions or chosen timeframes (intraday, daily, weekly).
Alerts
HVN / LVN Alerts : Notify when price reaches a significant high or low volume node.
High Volume Zone Alerts : Trigger when price enters the top X% of cumulative volume, signaling key areas of market interest.
How It Works
Each bar’s volume is distributed proportionally across the horizontal price levels it touches. Over the lookback period, this builds a cumulative volume profile, identifying price levels with the most and least trading activity. The highest cumulative volume levels become HVNs, while the lowest are LVNs. A side volume profile shows aggregated volume per level, and a heatmap overlay visually reinforces market structure.
Applications for Traders
Identify strong support and resistance at HVNs.
Detect areas of low liquidity where price may move quickly (LVNs).
Determine market balance zones where price may consolidate.
Filter noise: because volume clusters aggregate activity into levels, minor fluctuations and irrelevant micro-moves are removed, simplifying analysis and improving strategy development.
Combine with other indicators such as VWAP, Supertrend, or CVD for higher-probability entries and exits.
Use volume clusters to anticipate price reactions to breaking points in thin liquidity zones.
Advanced Display Options
Heatmap Styles : Boxes, lines, or both. Boxes provide a traditional heatmap, lines are better for high granularity data.
Line Mode Example : Simplified line visualization for easier reading at high level counts:
Profile Width & Offset : Adjust spacing and placement of the volume profile for clarity alongside price.
Transparency Control : Lower transparency for more opaque visualization of high-volume zones.
Best Practices for Usage
Reduce the number of levels when using line mode to avoid clutter.
Use HVN and LVN markers in conjunction with volume profiles to plan entries and exits.
Apply session resets to monitor intraday vs. multi-day volume accumulation.
Combine with other technical indicators to confirm high-probability trading signals.
Watch price interactions with LVNs for potential rapid movements and with HVNs for possible support/resistance or reversals.
Technical Notes
Each bar contributes volume proportionally to the price levels it spans, creating a dynamic and accurate representation of traded interest.
Volume profiles are scaled and offset for visual clarity alongside live price.
Alerts are fully integrated for HVN/LVN interaction and high-volume zone entries.
Optimized to handle large lookback windows and numerous price levels efficiently without performance degradation.
This indicator is ideal for understanding market structure, detecting key liquidity areas, and filtering out noise to model price more accurately in high-frequency or algorithmic strategies.

Live Market - Performance MonitorLive Market — Performance Monitor
Study material (no code) — step-by-step training guide for learners
________________________________________
1) What this tool is — short overview
This indicator is a live market performance monitor designed for learning. It scans price, volume and volatility, detects order blocks and trendline events, applies filters (volume & ATR), generates trade signals (BUY/SELL), creates simple TP/SL trade management, and renders a compact dashboard summarizing market state, risk and performance metrics.
Use it to learn how multi-factor signals are constructed, how Greeks-style sensitivity is replaced by volatility/ATR reasoning, and how a live dashboard helps monitor trade quality.
________________________________________
2) Quick start — how a learner uses it (step-by-step)
1. Add the indicator to a chart (any ticker / timeframe).
2. Open inputs and review the main groups: Order Block, Trendline, Signal Filters, Display.
3. Start with defaults (OB periods ≈ 7, ATR multiplier 0.5, volume threshold 1.2) and observe the dashboard on the last bar.
4. Walk the chart back in time (use the last-bar update behavior) and watch how signals, order blocks, trendlines, and the performance counters change.
5. Run the hands-on labs below to build intuition.
________________________________________
3) Main configurable inputs (what you can tweak)
• Order Block Relevant Periods (default ~7): number of consecutive candles used to define an order block.
• Min. Percent Move for Valid OB (threshold): minimum percent move required for a valid order block.
• Number of OB Channels: how many past order block lines to keep visible.
• Trendline Period (tl_period): pivot lookback for detecting highs/lows used to draw trendlines.
• Use Wicks for Trendlines: whether pivot uses wicks or body.
• Extension Bars: how far trendlines are projected forward.
• Use Volume Filter + Volume Threshold Multiplier (e.g., 1.2): requires volume to be greater than multiplier × average volume.
• Use ATR Filter + ATR Multiplier: require bar range > ATR × multiplier to filter noise.
• Show Targets / Table settings / Colors for visualization.
________________________________________
4) Core building blocks — what the script computes (plain language)
Price & trend:
• Spot / LTP: current close price.
• EMA 9 / 21 / 50: fast, medium, slow moving averages to define short/medium trend.
o trend_bullish: EMA9 > EMA21 > EMA50
o trend_bearish: EMA9 < EMA21 < EMA50
o trend_neutral: otherwise
Volatility & noise:
• ATR (14): average true range used for dynamic target and filter sizing.
• dynamic_zone = ATR × atr_multiplier: minimum bar range required for meaningful move.
• Annualized volatility: stdev of price changes × sqrt(252) × 100 — used to classify volatility (HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW).
Momentum & oscillators:
• RSI 14: overbought/oversold indicator (thresholds 70/30).
• MACD: EMA(12)-EMA(26) and a 9-period signal line; histogram used for momentum direction and strength.
• Momentum (ta.mom 10): raw momentum over 10 bars.
Mean reversion / band context:
• Bollinger Bands (20, 2σ): upper, mid, lower.
o price_position measures where price sits inside the band range as 0–100.
Volume metrics:
• avg_volume = SMA(volume, 20) and volume_spike = volume > avg_volume × volume_threshold
o volume_ratio = volume / avg_volume
Support & Resistance:
• support_level = lowest low over 20 bars
• resistance_level = highest high over 20 bars
• current_position = percent of price between support & resistance (0–100)
________________________________________
5) Order Block detection — concept & logic
What it tries to find: a bar (the base) followed by N candles in the opposite direction (a classical order block setup), with a minimum % move to qualify. The script records the high/low of the base candle, averages them, and plots those levels as OB channels.
How learners should think about it (conceptual):
1. An order block is a signature area where institutions (theory) left liquidity — often seen as a large bar followed by a sequence of directional candles.
2. This indicator uses a configurable number of subsequent candles to confirm that the pattern exists.
3. When found, it stores and displays the base candle’s high/low area so students can see how price later reacts to those zones.
Implementation note for learners: the tool keeps a limited history of OB lines (ob_channels). When new OBs exceed the count, the oldest lines are removed — good practice to avoid clutter.
________________________________________
6) Trendline detection — idea & interpretation
• The script finds pivot highs and lows using a symmetric lookback (tl_period and half that as right/left).
• It then computes a trendline slope from successive pivots and projects the line forward (extension_bars).
• Break detection: Resistance break = close crosses above the projected resistance line; Support break = close crosses below projected support.
Learning tip: trendlines here are computed from pivot points and time. Watch how changing tl_period (bigger = smoother, fewer pivots) alters the trendlines and break signals.
________________________________________
7) Signal generation & filters — step-by-step
1. Primary triggers:
o Bullish trigger: order block bullish OR resistance trendline break.
o Bearish trigger: bearish order block OR support trendline break.
2. Filters applied (both must pass unless disabled):
o Volume filter: volume must be > avg_volume × volume_threshold.
o ATR filter: bar range (high-low) must exceed ATR × atr_multiplier.
o Not in an existing trade: new trades only start if trade_active is false.
3. Trend confirmation:
o The primary trigger is only confirmed if trend is bullish/neutral for buys or bearish/neutral for sells (EMA alignment).
4. Result:
o When confirmed, a long or short trade is activated with TP/SL calculated from ATR multiples.
________________________________________
8) Trade management — what the tool does after a signal
• Entry management: the script marks a trade as trade_active and sets long_trade or short_trade flags.
• TP & SL rules:
o Long: TP = high + 2×ATR ; SL = low − 1×ATR
o Short: TP = low − 2×ATR ; SL = high + 1×ATR
• Monitoring & exit:
o A trade closes when price reaches TP or SL.
o When TP/SL hit, the indicator updates win_count and total_pnl using a very simple calculation (difference between TP/SL and previous close).
o Visual lines/labels are drawn for TP and updated as the trade runs.
Important learner notes:
• The script does not store a true entry price (it uses close in its P&L math), so PnL is an approximation — treat this as a learning proxy, not a position accounting system.
• There’s no sizing, slippage, or fee accounted — students must manually factor these when translating to real trades.
• This indicator is not a backtesting strategy; strategy.* functions would be needed for rigorous backtest results.
________________________________________
9) Signal strength & helper utilities
• Signal strength is a composite score (0–100) made up of four signals worth 25 points each:
1. RSI extreme (overbought/oversold) → 25
2. Volume spike → 25
3. MACD histogram magnitude increasing → 25
4. Trend existence (bull or bear) → 25
• Progress bars (text glyphs) are used to visually show RSI and signal strength on the table.
Learning point: composite scoring is a way to combine orthogonal signals — study how changing weights changes outcomes.

10) Dashboard — how to read each section (walkthrough)
The dashboard is split into sections; here's how to interpret them:
1. Market Overview
o LTP / Change%: immediate price & daily % change.
2. RSI & MACD
o RSI value plus progress bar (overbought 70 / oversold 30).
o MACD histogram sign indicates bullish/bearish momentum.
3. Volume Analysis
o Volume ratio (current / average) and whether there’s a spike.
4. Order Block Status
o Buy OB / Sell OB: the average base price of detected order blocks or “No Signal.”
5. Signal Status
o 🔼 BUY or 🔽 SELL if confirmed, or ⚪ WAIT.
o No-trade vs Active indicator summarizing market readiness.
6. Trend Analysis
o Trend direction (from EMAs), market sentiment score (composite), volatility level and band/position metrics.
7. Performance
o Win Rate = wins / signals (percentage)
o Total PnL = cumulative PnL (approximate)
o Bull / Bear Volume = accumulated volumes attributable to signals
8. Support & Resistance
o 20-bar highest/lowest — use as nearby reference points.
9. Risk & R:R
o Risk Level from ATR/price as a percent.
o R:R Ratio computed from TP/SL if a trade is active.
10. Signal Strength & Active Trade Status
• Numeric strength + progress bar and whether a trade is currently active with TP/SL display.
________________________________________
11) Alerts — what will notify you
The indicator includes pre-built alert triggers for:
• Bullish confirmed signal
• Bearish confirmed signal
• TP hit (long/short)
• SL hit (long/short)
• No-trade zone
• High signal strength (score > 75%)
Training use: enable alerts during a replay session to be notified when the indicator would have signalled.
________________________________________
12) Labs — hands-on exercises for learners (step-by-step)
Lab A — Order Block recognition
1. Pick a 15–30 minute timeframe on a liquid ticker.
2. Use default OB periods (7). Mark each time the dashboard shows a Buy/Sell OB.
3. Manually inspect the chart at the base candle and the following sequence — draw the OB zone by hand and watch later price reactions to it.
4. Repeat with OB periods 5 and 10; note stability vs noise.
Lab B — Trendline break confirmation
1. Increase trendline period (e.g., 20), watch trendlines form from pivots.
2. When a resistance break is flagged, compare with MACD & volume: was momentum aligned?
3. Note false breaks vs confirmed moves — change extension_bars to see projection effects.
Lab C — Filter sensitivity
1. Toggle Use Volume Filter off, and record the number and quality of signals in a 2-day window.
2. Re-enable volume filter and change threshold from 1.2 → 1.6; note how many low-quality signals are filtered out.
Lab D — Trade management simulation
1. For each signalled trade, record the time, close entry approximation, TP, SL, and eventual hit/miss.
2. Compute actual PnL if you had entered at the open of the next bar to compare with the script’s PnL math.
3. Tabulate win rate and average R:R.
Lab E — Performance review & improvement
1. Build a spreadsheet of signals over 30–90 periods with columns: Date, Signal type, Entry price (real), TP, SL, Exit, PnL, Notes.
2. Analyze which filters or indicators contributed most to winners vs losers and adjust weights.
________________________________________
13) Common pitfalls, assumptions & implementation notes (things to watch)
• P&L simplification: total_pnl uses close as a proxy entry price. Real entry/exit prices and slippage are not recorded — so PnL is approximate.
• No position sizing or money management: the script doesn’t compute position size from equity or risk percent.
• Signal confirmation logic: composite "signal_strength" is a simple 4×25 point scheme — explore different weights or additional signals.
• Order block detection nuance: the script defines the base candle and checks the subsequent sequence. Be sure to verify whether the intended candle direction (base being bullish vs bearish) aligns with academic/your trading definition — read the code carefully and test.
• Trendline slope over time: slope is computed using timestamps; small differences may make lines sensitive on very short timeframes — using bar_index differences is usually more stable.
• Not a true backtester: to evaluate performance statistically you must transform the logic into a strategy script that places hypothetical orders and records exact entry/exit prices.
________________________________________
14) Suggested improvements for advanced learners
• Record true entry price & timestamp for accurate PnL.
• Add position sizing: risk % per trade using SL distance and account size.
• Convert to strategy. (Pine Strategy)* to run formal backtests with equity curves, drawdowns, and metrics (Sharpe, Sortino).
• Log trades to an external spreadsheet (via alerts + webhook) for offline analysis.
• Add statistics: average win/loss, expectancy, max drawdown.
• Add additional filters: news time blackout, market session filters, multi-timeframe confirmation.
• Improve OB detection: combine wick/body, volume spike at base bar, and liquidity sweep detection.
________________________________________
15) Glossary — quick definitions
• ATR (Average True Range): measure of typical range; used to size targets and stops.
• EMA (Exponential Moving Average): trend smoothing giving more weight to recent prices.
• RSI (Relative Strength Index): momentum oscillator; >70 overbought, <30 oversold.
• MACD: momentum oscillator using difference of two EMAs.
• Bollinger Bands: volatility bands around SMA.
• Order Block: a base candle area with subsequent confirmation candles; a zone of institutional interest (learning model).
• Pivot High/Low: local turning point defined by candles on both sides.
• Signal Strength: combined score from multiple indicators.
• Win Rate: proportion of signals that hit TP vs total signals.
• R:R (Risk:Reward): ratio of potential reward (TP distance) to risk (entry to SL).
________________________________________
16) Limitations & assumptions (be explicit)
• This is an indicator for learning — not a trading robot or broker connection.
• No slippage, fees, commissions or tie-in to real orders are considered.
• The logic is heuristic (rule-of-thumb), not a guarantee of performance.
• Results are sensitive to timeframe, market liquidity, and parameter choices.
________________________________________
17) Practical classroom / study plan (4 sessions)
• Session 1 — Foundations: Understand EMAs, ATR, RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands. Run the indicator and watch how these numbers change on a single day.
• Session 2 — Zones & Filters: Study order blocks and trendlines. Test volume & ATR filters and note changes in false signals.
• Session 3 — Simulated trading: Manually track 20 signals, compute real PnL and compare to the dashboard.
• Session 4 — Improvement plan: Propose changes (e.g., better PnL accounting, alternative OB rule) and test their impact.
________________________________________
18) Quick reference checklist for each signal
1. Was an order block or trendline break detected? (primary trigger)
2. Did volume meet threshold? (filter)
3. Did ATR filter (bar size) show a real move? (filter)
4. Was trend aligned (EMA 9/21/50)? (confirmation)
5. Signal confirmed → mark entry approximation, TP, SL.
6. Monitor dashboard (Signal Strength, Volatility, No-trade zone, R:R).
7. After exit, log real entry/exit, compute actual PnL, update spreadsheet.

Yelober - Market Internal direction+ Key levelsYelober – Market Internals + Key Levels is a focused intraday trading tool that helps you spot high-probability price direction by anchoring decisions to structure that matters: yesterday’s RTH High/Low, today’s pre-market High/Low, and a fast Value Area/POC from the prior session. Paired with a compact market internals dashboard (NYSE/NASDAQ UVOL vs. DVOL ratios, VOLD slopes, TICK/TICKQ momentum, and optional VIX trend), it gives you a real-time read on breadth so you can choose which direction to trade, when to enter (breaks, retests, or fades at PMH/PML/VAH/VAL/POC), and how to plan exits as internals confirm or deteriorate. On top of these intraday decision benefits, it also allows traders—in a very subtle but powerful way—to keep an eye on the VIX and immediately recognize significant spikes or sharp decreases that should be factored in before entering a trade, or used as a quick signal to modify an existing position. In short: clear levels for the chart, live internals for the context, and a smarter, rules-based path to execution.
# Yelober – Market Internals + Key Levels
*A TradingView indicator for session key levels + real‑time market internals (NYSE/NASDAQ TICK, UVOL/DVOL/VOLD, and VIX).*
**Script name in Pine:** `Yelober - Market Internal direction+ Key levels` (Pine v6)
---
## 1) What this indicator does
**Purpose:** Help intraday traders quickly find high‑probability reaction zones and read market internals momentum without switching charts. It overlays yesterday/today’s **automatic price levels** on your active chart and shows a **market breadth table** that summarizes NYSE/NASDAQ buying pressure and TICK direction, with an optional VIX trend read.
### Key features at a glance
* **Automatic Price Levels (overlay on chart)**
* Yesterday’s High/Low of Day (**yHoD**, **yLoD**)
* Extended Hours High/Low (**yEHH**, **yEHL**) across yesterday AH + today pre‑market
* Today’s Pre‑Market High/Low (**PMH**, **PML**)
* Yesterday’s **Value Area High/Low** (**VAH/VAL**) and **Point of Control (POC)** computed from a volume profile of yesterday’s **regular session**
* Smart de‑duplication:
* Shows **only the higher** of (yEHH vs PMH) and **only the lower** of (yEHL vs PML) to avoid redundant bands
* **Market Breadth Table (on‑chart table)**
* **NYSE ratio** = UVOL/DVOL (signed) with **VOLD slope** from session open
* **NASDAQ ratio** = UVOLQ/DVOLQ (signed) with **VOLDQ slope** from session open
* **TICK** and **TICKQ**: live cumulative ratio and short‑term slope
* **VIX** (optional): current value + slope over a configurable lookback/timeframe
* Color‑coded trends with sensible thresholds and optional normalization
---
## 2) How to use it (trader workflow)
1. **Mark your reaction zones**
* Watch **yHoD/yLoD**, **PMH/PML**, and **VAH/VAL/POC** for first touches, break/retest, and failure tests.
* Expect increased responsiveness when multiple levels cluster (e.g., PMH ≈ VAH ≈ daily pivot).
2. **Read the breadth panel for context**
* **NYSE/NASDAQ ratio** (>1 = more up‑volume than down‑volume; <−1 = down‑dominant). Strong green across both favors long setups; red favors short setups.
* **VOLD slopes** (NYSE & NASDAQ): positive and accelerating → broadening participation; negative → persistent pressure.
* **TICK/TICKQ**: cumulative ratio and **slope arrows** (↗ / ↘ / →). Use the slope to gauge **near‑term thrust or fade**.
* **VIX slope**: rising VIX (red) often coincides with risk‑off; falling VIX (green) with risk‑on.
3. **Confluence = higher confidence**
* Example: Price reclaims **PMH** while **NYSE/NASDAQ ratios** print green and **TICK slopes** point ↗ — consider break‑and‑go; if VIX slope is ↘, that adds risk‑on confidence.
* Example: Price rejects **VAH** while **VOLD slopes** roll negative and VIX ↗ — consider fade/reversal.
4. **Risk management**
* Place stops just beyond key levels tested; if breadth flips, tighten or exit.
> **Timeframes:** Works best on 1–15m charts for intraday. Value Area is computed from **yesterday’s RTH**; choose a smaller calculation timeframe (e.g., 5–15m) for stable profiles.
---
## 3) Inputs & settings (what each option controls)
### Global Style
* **Enable all automatic price levels**: master toggle for yHoD/yLoD, yEHH/yEHL, PMH/PML, VAH/VAL/POC.
* **Line style/width**: applies to all drawn levels.
* **Label size/style** and **label color linking**: use the same color as the line or override with a global label color.
* **Maximum bars lookback**: how far the script scans to build yesterday metrics (performance‑sensitive).
### Value Area / Volume Profile
* **Enable Value Area calculations** *(on by default)*: computes yesterday’s **POC**, **VAH**, **VAL** from a simplified intraday volume profile built from yesterday’s **regular session bars**.
* **Max Volume Profile Points** *(default 50)*: lower values = faster; higher = more precise.
* **Value Area Calculation Timeframe** *(default 15)*: the security timeframe used when collecting yesterday’s highs/lows/volumes.
### Individual Level Toggles & Colors
* **yHoD / yLoD** (yesterday high/low)
* **yEHH / yEHL** (yesterday AH + today pre‑market extremes)
* **PMH / PML** (today pre‑market extremes)
* **VAH / VAL / POC** (yesterday RTH value area + point of control)
### Market Breadth Panel
* **Show NYSE / NASDAQ / VIX**: choose which series to display in the table.
* **Table Position / Size / Background Color**: UI placement and legibility.
* **Slope Averaging Periods** *(default 5)*: number of recent TICK/TICKQ ratio points used in slope calculation.
* **Candles for Rate** *(default 10)* & **Normalize Rate**: VIX slope calculation as % change between `now` and `n` candles ago; normalize divides by `n`.
* **VIX Timeframe**: optionally compute VIX on a higher TF (e.g., 15, 30, 60) for a smoother regime read.
* **Volume Normalization** (NYSE & NASDAQ): display VOLD slopes scaled to `tens/thousands/millions/10th millions` for readable magnitudes; color thresholds adapt to your choice.
---
## 4) Data sources & definitions
* **UVOL/VOLD (NYSE)** and **UVOLQ/DVOLQ/VOLDQ (NASDAQ)** via `request.security()`
* **Ratio** = `UVOL/DVOL` (signed; negative when down‑volume dominates)
* **VOLD slope** ≈ `(VOLD_now − VOLD_open) / bars_since_open`, then normalized per your setting
* **TICK/TICKQ**: cumulative sum of prints this session with **positives vs negatives ratio**, plus a simple linear regression **slope** of the last `N` ratio values
* **VIX**: value and slope across a user‑selected timeframe and lookback
* **Sessions (EST/EDT)**
* **Regular:** 09:30–16:00
* **Pre‑Market:** 04:00–09:30
* **After Hours:** 16:00–20:00
* **Extended‑hours extremes** combine **yesterday AH** + **today PM**
> **Note:** All session checks are done with TradingView’s `time(…,"America/New_York")` context. If your broker’s RTH differs (e.g., futures), adjust expectations accordingly.
---
## 5) How the algorithms work (plain English)
### A) Key Levels
* **Yesterday’s RTH High/Low**: scans yesterday’s bars within 09:30–16:00 and records the extremes + bar indices.
* **Extended Hours**: scans yesterday AH and today PM to get **yEHH/yEHL**. Script shows **either yEHH or PMH** (whichever is **higher**) and **either yEHL or PML** (whichever is **lower**) to avoid duplicate bands stacked together.
* **Value Area & POC (RTH only)**
* Build a coarse volume profile with `Max Volume Profile Points` buckets across the price range formed by yesterday’s RTH bars.
* Distribute each bar’s volume uniformly across the buckets it spans (fast approximation to keep Pine within execution limits).
* **POC** = bucket with max volume. **VA** expands from POC outward until **70%** of cumulative volume is enclosed → yields **VAH/VAL**.
### B) Market Breadth Table
* **NYSE/NASDAQ Ratio**: signed UVOL/DVOL with basic coloring.
* **VOLD Slopes**: from session open to current, normalized to human‑readable units; colors flip green/red based on thresholds that map to your normalization setting (e.g., ±2M for NYSE, ±3.5×10M for NASDAQ).
* **TICK/TICKQ Slope**: linear regression over the last `N` ratio points → **↗ / → / ↘** with the rounded slope value.
* **VIX Slope**: % change between now and `n` candles ago (optionally divided by `n`). Red when rising beyond threshold; green when falling.
---
## 6) Recommended presets
* **Stocks (liquid, intraday)**
* Value Area **ON**, `Max Volume Points` = **40–60**, **Timeframe** = **5–15**
* Breadth: show **NYSE & NASDAQ & VIX**, `Slope periods` = **5–8**, `Candles for rate` = **10–20**, **Normalize VIX** = **ON**
* **Index futures / very high‑volume symbols**
* If you see Pine timeouts, set `Max Volume Points` = **20–40** or temporarily **disable Value Area**.
* Keep breadth panel **ON** (it’s light). Consider **VIX timeframe = 15/30** for regime clarity.
---
## 7) Tips, edge cases & performance
* **Performance:** The volume profile is capped (`maxBarsToProcess ≤ 500` and bucketed) to keep it responsive. If you experience slowdowns, reduce `Max Volume Points`, `Maximum bars lookback`, or disable Value Area.
* **Redundant lines:** The script **intentionally suppresses** PMH/PML when yEHH/yEHL are more extreme, and vice‑versa.
* **Label visibility:** Use `Label style = none` if you only want clean lines and read values from the right‑end labels.
* **Futures/RTH differences:** Value Area is from **yesterday’s RTH** only; for 24h instruments the RTH period may not reflect overnight structure.
* **Session transitions:** PMH/PML tracking stops as soon as RTH starts; values persist as static levels for the session.
---
## 8) Known limitations
* Uses public TradingView symbols: `UVOL`, `VOLD`, `UVOLQ`, `DVOLQ`, `VOLDQ`, `TICK`, `TICKQ`, `VIX`. If your data plan or region limits any symbol, the corresponding table rows may show `na`.
* The VA/POC approximation assumes uniform distribution of each bar’s volume across its high–low. That’s fast but not a tick‑level profile.
* Works best on US equities with standard NY session; alternative sessions may need code changes.
---
## 9) Troubleshooting
* **“Script is too slow / timed out”** → Lower `Max Volume Points`, lower `Maximum bars lookback`, or toggle **OFF** `Enable Value Area calculations` for that instrument.
* **Missing breadth values** → Ensure the symbols above load on your account; try reloading chart or switching timeframes once.
* **Overlapping labels** → Set `Label style = none` or reduce label size.

Pivot and Wick Boxes with Break Signals█ OVERVIEW
This Pine Script® indicator draws support and resistance levels based on high and low pivot points and the wicks of pivot candles. When the price breaks these levels, breakout signals are generated, with an optional volume filter for greater precision. The indicator is fully customizable, allowing users to adjust box styles, pivot length, and signal settings.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator relies on several key elements to identify and visualize important price levels and trading signals:
Pivot Identification
High and low pivots are detected using the ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow functions with a configurable pivot length. Boxes are drawn based on the pivot level and the wick of the pivot candle (top for high pivots, bottom for low pivots).
List of Features
1 — High and Low Pivot Boxes: The indicator draws boxes based on high pivot candles (red) and low pivot candles (green) and their wicks, with options to customize colors, border styles, and background gradient. Boxes are limited to 500 bars back, meaning support and resistance levels older than 500 candles are not displayed to maintain chart clarity.
2 — Breakout Signals: When the price closes above the upper edge of a high pivot box, a breakout signal is generated (green triangle below the bar). When the price closes below the lower edge of a low pivot box, a breakout signal is generated (red triangle above the bar).
Signals can be filtered using volume, requiring the volume at the breakout to exceed the average volume multiplied by a configurable multiplier.
3 — Box Management: The indicator limits the number of displayed boxes (default is 15 for high pivots and 15 for low pivots), removing the oldest boxes when the limit is reached. Boxes older than 500 bars are automatically removed.
Volume Filtering
An optional volume filter allows users to require breakout signals to be confirmed by volume exceeding the moving average of volume (calculated over a selected period, default is 20 days).
█ OTHER SECTIONS
FEATURES
• Show High/Low Pivot Boxes: Enables or disables the display of boxes for high and low pivots.
• Pivot Length: Specifies the number of bars back and forward for detecting pivots (default is 5).
• Max Boxes: Sets the maximum number of boxes for high and low pivots (default is 15).
• Volume Filter: Enables a volume filter for breakout signals, with a configurable multiplier and average period.
• Box Style: Allows customization of border color, background gradient, border width, and border style (solid, dashed, dotted).
HOW TO USE
1 — Add the indicator to your TradingView chart by selecting “Pivot and Wick Boxes with Break Signals” from the indicators list.
2 — Configure the settings in the indicator’s dialog window, adjusting pivot length, maximum number of boxes, colors, and style.
3 — Enable the volume filter if you want signals to be confirmed by high volume.
4 — Monitor breakout signals (green triangles below bars for upward breakouts, red triangles above bars for downward breakouts) on the chart.
LIMITATIONS
• New pivots are detected with a delay equal to the set pivot length. A lower pivot length value results in faster pivot detection but produces pivots with less significance as support or resistance levels compared to those generated with a longer value.
• Breakout signals may produce false signals in volatile market conditions, especially without the volume filter.
• Boxes are limited to 500 bars back, which may exclude older pivots on long-term charts.
Reversal Point Dynamics⇋ Reversal Point Dynamics (RPD)
This is not an indicator; it is a complete system for deconstructing the mechanics of a market reversal. Reversal Point Dynamics (RPD) moves far beyond simplistic pattern recognition, venturing into a deep analysis of the underlying forces that cause trends to exhaust, pause, and turn. It is engineered from the ground up to identify high-probability reversal points by quantifying the confluence of market dynamics in real-time.
Where other tools provide a static signal, RPD delivers a dynamic probability. It understands that a true market turning point is not a single event, but a cascade of failing momentum, structural breakdown, and a shift in market order. RPD's core engine meticulously analyzes each of these dynamic components—the market's underlying state, its velocity and acceleration, its degree of chaos (entropy), and its structural framework. These forces are synthesized into a single, unified Probability Score, offering you an unprecedented, transparent view into the conviction behind every potential reversal.
This is not a "black box" system. It is an open-architecture engine designed to empower the discerning trader. Featuring real-time signal projection, an integrated Fibonacci R2R Target Engine, and a comprehensive dashboard that acts as your Dynamics Control Center , RPD gives you a complete, holistic view of the market's state.
The Theoretical Core: Deconstructing Market Dynamics
RPD's analytical power is born from the intelligent synthesis of multiple, distinct theoretical models. Each pillar of the engine analyzes a different facet of market behavior. The convergence of these analyses—the "Singularity" event referenced in the dashboard—is what generates the final, high-conviction probability score.
1. Pillar One: Quantum State Analysis (QSA)
This is the foundational analysis of the market's current state within its recent context. Instead of treating price as a random walk, QSA quantizes it into a finite number of discrete "states."
Formulaic Concept: The engine establishes a price range using the highest high and lowest low over the Adaptive Analysis Period. This range is then divided into a user-defined number of Analysis Levels. The current price is mapped to one of these states (e.g., in a 9-level system, State 0 is the absolute low, and State 8 is the absolute high).
Analytical Edge: This acts as a powerful foundational filter. The engine will only begin searching for reversal signals when the market has reached a statistically stretched, extreme state (e.g., State 0 or 8). The Edge Sensitivity input allows you to control exactly how close to this extreme edge the price must be, ensuring you are trading from points of maximum potential exhaustion.
2. Pillar Two: Price State Roc (PSR) - The Dynamics of Momentum
This pillar analyzes the kinetic forces of the market: its velocity and acceleration. It understands that it’s not just where the price is, but how it got there that matters.
Formulaic Concept: The psr function calculates two derivatives of price.
Velocity: (price - price ). This measures the speed and direction of the current move.
Acceleration: (velocity - velocity ). This measures the rate of change in that speed. A negative acceleration (deceleration) during a strong rally is a critical pre-reversal warning, indicating momentum is fading even as price may be pushing higher.
Analytical Edge: The engine specifically hunts for exhaustion patterns where momentum is clearly decelerating as price reaches an extreme state. This is the mechanical signature of a weakening trend.
3. Pillar Three: Market Entropy Analysis - The Dynamics of Order & Chaos
This is RPD's chaos filter, a concept borrowed from information theory. Entropy measures the degree of randomness or disorder in the market's price action.
Formulaic Concept: The calculateEntropy function analyzes recent price changes. A market moving directionally and smoothly has low entropy (high order). A market chopping back and forth without direction has high entropy (high chaos). The value is normalized between 0 and 1.
Analytical Edge: The most reliable trades occur in low-entropy, ordered environments. RPD uses the Entropy Threshold to disqualify signals that attempt to form in chaotic, unpredictable conditions, providing a powerful shield against whipsaw markets.
4. Pillar Four: The Synthesis Engine & Probability Calculation
This is where all the dynamic forces converge. The final probability score is a weighted calculation that heavily rewards confluence.
Formulaic Concept: The calculateProbability function intelligently assembles the final score:
A Base Score is established from trend strength and entropy.
An Entropy Score adds points for low entropy (order) and subtracts for high entropy (chaos).
A significant Divergence Bonus is awarded for a classic momentum divergence.
RSI & Volume Bonuses are added if momentum oscillators are in extreme territory or a volume spike confirms institutional interest.
MTF & Adaptive Bonuses add further weight for alignment with higher timeframe structure.
Analytical Edge: A signal backed by multiple dynamic forces (e.g., extreme state + decelerating momentum + low entropy + volume spike) will receive an exponentially higher probability score. This is the very essence of analyzing reversal point dynamics.
The Command Center: Mastering the Inputs
Every input is a precise lever of control, allowing you to fine-tune the RPD engine to your exact trading style, market, and timeframe.
🧠 Core Algorithm
Predictive Mode (Early Detection):
What It Is: Enables the engine to search for potential reversals on the current, unclosed bar.
How It Works: Analyzes intra-bar acceleration and state to identify developing exhaustion. These signals are marked with a ' ? ' and are tentative.
How To Use It: Enable for scalping or very aggressive day trading to get the earliest possible indication. Disable for swing trading or a more conservative approach that waits for full bar confirmation.
Live Signal Mode (Current Bar):
What It Is: A highly aggressive mode that plots tentative signals with a ' ! ' on the live bar based on projected price and momentum. These signals repaint intra-bar.
How It Works: Uses a linear regression projection of the close to anticipate a reversal.
How To Use It: For advanced users who use intra-bar dynamics for execution and understand the nature of repainting signals.
Adaptive Analysis Period:
What It Is: The main lookback period for the QSA, PSR, and Entropy calculations. This is the engine's "memory."
How It Works: A shorter period makes the engine highly sensitive to local price swings. A longer period makes it focus only on major, significant market structure.
How To Use It: Scalping (1-5m): 15-25. Day Trading (15m-1H): 25-40. Swing Trading (4H+): 40-60.
Fractal Strength (Bars):
What It Is: Defines the strength of the pivot detection used for confirming reversal events.
How It Works: A value of '2' requires a candle's high/low to be more extreme than the two bars to its left and right.
How To Use It: '2' is a robust standard. Increase to '3' for an even stricter definition of a structural pivot, which will result in fewer signals.
MTF Multiplier:
What It Is: Integrates pivot data from a higher timeframe for confluence.
How It Works: A multiplier of '4' on a 15-minute chart will pull pivot data from the 1-hour chart (15 * 4 = 60m).
How To Use It: Set to a multiple that corresponds to your preferred higher timeframe for contextual analysis.
🎯 Signal Settings
Min Probability %:
What It Is: Your master quality filter. A signal is only plotted if its score exceeds this threshold.
How It Works: Directly filters the output of the final probability calculation.
How To Use It: High-Quality (80-95): For A+ setups only. Balanced (65-75): For day trading. Aggressive (50-60): For scalping.
Min Signal Distance (Bars):
What It Is: A noise filter that prevents signals from clustering in choppy conditions.
How It Works: Enforces a "cooldown" period of N bars after a signal.
How To Use It: Increase in ranging markets to focus on major swings. Decrease on lower timeframes.
Entropy Threshold:
What It Is: Your "chaos shield." Sets the maximum allowable market randomness for a signal.
How It Works: If calculated entropy is above this value, the signal is invalidated.
How To Use It: Lower values (0.1-0.5): Extremely strict. Higher values (0.7-1.0): More lenient. 0.85 is a good balance.
Adaptive Entropy & Aggressive Mode:
What It Is: Toggles for dynamically adjusting the engine's core parameters.
How It Works: Adaptive Entropy can slightly lower the required probability in strong trends. Aggressive Mode uses more lenient settings across the board.

Development Philosophy
Reversal Point Dynamics was engineered to answer a fundamental question: can we objectively measure the forces behind a market turn? It is a synthesis of concepts from market microstructure, statistics, and information theory. The objective was never to create a "perfect" system, but to build a robust decision-support tool that provides a measurable, statistical edge by focusing on the principle of confluence.
By demanding that multiple, independent market dynamics align simultaneously, RPD filters out the vast majority of market noise. It is designed for the trader who thinks in terms of probability and risk management, not in terms of certainties. It is a tool to help you discount the obvious and bet on the unexpected alignment of market forces.
"Markets are constantly in a state of uncertainty and flux and money is made by discounting the obvious and betting on the unexpected."

Tensor Market Analysis Engine (TMAE)# Tensor Market Analysis Engine (TMAE)
## Advanced Multi-Dimensional Mathematical Analysis System
*Where Quantum Mathematics Meets Market Structure*
---
## 🎓 THEORETICAL FOUNDATION
The Tensor Market Analysis Engine represents a revolutionary synthesis of three cutting-edge mathematical frameworks that have never before been combined for comprehensive market analysis. This indicator transcends traditional technical analysis by implementing advanced mathematical concepts from quantum mechanics, information theory, and fractal geometry.
### 🌊 Multi-Dimensional Volatility with Jump Detection
**Hawkes Process Implementation:**
The TMAE employs a sophisticated Hawkes process approximation for detecting self-exciting market jumps. Unlike traditional volatility measures that treat price movements as independent events, the Hawkes process recognizes that market shocks cluster and exhibit memory effects.
**Mathematical Foundation:**
```
Intensity λ(t) = μ + Σ α(t - Tᵢ)
```
Where market jumps at times Tᵢ increase the probability of future jumps through the decay function α, controlled by the Hawkes Decay parameter (0.5-0.99).
**Mahalanobis Distance Calculation:**
The engine calculates volatility jumps using multi-dimensional Mahalanobis distance across up to 5 volatility dimensions:
- **Dimension 1:** Price volatility (standard deviation of returns)
- **Dimension 2:** Volume volatility (normalized volume fluctuations)
- **Dimension 3:** Range volatility (high-low spread variations)
- **Dimension 4:** Correlation volatility (price-volume relationship changes)
- **Dimension 5:** Microstructure volatility (intrabar positioning analysis)
This creates a volatility state vector that captures market behavior impossible to detect with traditional single-dimensional approaches.
### 📐 Hurst Exponent Regime Detection
**Fractal Market Hypothesis Integration:**
The TMAE implements advanced Rescaled Range (R/S) analysis to calculate the Hurst exponent in real-time, providing dynamic regime classification:
- **H > 0.6:** Trending (persistent) markets - momentum strategies optimal
- **H < 0.4:** Mean-reverting (anti-persistent) markets - contrarian strategies optimal
- **H ≈ 0.5:** Random walk markets - breakout strategies preferred
**Adaptive R/S Analysis:**
Unlike static implementations, the TMAE uses adaptive windowing that adjusts to market conditions:
```
H = log(R/S) / log(n)
```
Where R is the range of cumulative deviations and S is the standard deviation over period n.
**Dynamic Regime Classification:**
The system employs hysteresis to prevent regime flipping, requiring sustained Hurst values before regime changes are confirmed. This prevents false signals during transitional periods.
### 🔄 Transfer Entropy Analysis
**Information Flow Quantification:**
Transfer entropy measures the directional flow of information between price and volume, revealing lead-lag relationships that indicate future price movements:
```
TE(X→Y) = Σ p(yₜ₊₁, yₜ, xₜ) log
```
**Causality Detection:**
- **Volume → Price:** Indicates accumulation/distribution phases
- **Price → Volume:** Suggests retail participation or momentum chasing
- **Balanced Flow:** Market equilibrium or transition periods
The system analyzes multiple lag periods (2-20 bars) to capture both immediate and structural information flows.

Sessions [Plug&Play]This indicator automatically highlights the three major FX trading sessions—Asia, London, and New York—on your chart and, at the close of each session, draws right-extended horizontal rays at that session’s high and low. It’s designed to help you visually identify when price is trading within each session’s range and to quickly see where the highest and lowest prices occurred before the next major session begins.
Key Features:
Session Boxes
Draws a semi-transparent box around each session’s timeframe (Asia, London, New York) based on your local UTC offset.
Each box dynamically expands in real time: as new candles form during the session, the box’s top and bottom edges update to match the highest high and lowest low seen so far in that session.
When the session ends, the box remains on your chart, anchored to the exact candles that formed its boundaries.
High/Low Rays
As soon as a session closes (e.g., London session ends at 17:00 UTC+0 by default), two horizontal rays are drawn at that session’s final high and low.
These rays are “pinned” to the exact candles where the high/low occurred, so they stay in place when you scroll or zoom.
Each ray extends indefinitely to the right, providing a clear reference of the key supply/demand levels created during that session.
Session Labels
Optionally places a small “London,” “New York,” or “Asia” label at the top edge of each completed session’s box.
Labels are horizontally centered within the session’s box and use a contrasting, easy-to-read font color.
Customizable Appearance
Show/Hide Each Session: Toggle display of London, New York, and Asia sessions separately.
Time Ranges: By default, London is 08:00–17:00 (UTC), New York is 13:00–22:00 (UTC), and Asia is 00:00–07:00 (UTC). You can override each session’s start/end times using the “Time Range” picker.
Color & Opacity: Assign custom colors to each session. Choose a global “Dark,” “Medium,” or “Light” opacity preset to adjust box fill transparency and border shading.
Show/Hide Labels & Outlines: Turn the text labels and the box borders on or off independently.
UTC Offset Support
If your local broker feed or price data is not in UTC, simply adjust the “UTC Offset (+/–)” input. The indicator will recalculate session start/end times relative to your chosen offset.
How to Use:
Add the Indicator:
Open TradingView’s Pine Editor, paste in this script, and click “Add to Chart.”
By default, you’ll see three translucent boxes appear once each session begins (Asia, London, New York).
Watch in Real Time:
As soon as a session starts, its box will appear anchored to the first candle. The top and bottom of the box expand if new extremes occur.
When the session closes, the final box remains visible and two horizontal rays mark that session’s high and low.
Analyze Key Levels:
Use the high- and low-level rays to gauge session liquidity zones—areas where stop orders, breakouts, or reversals often occur.
For example, if London’s high is significantly above current price, it may act as resistance in the New York session.
Customize to Your Needs:
Toggle specific sessions on/off (e.g., if you only care about London and New York).
Change each session’s color to match your chart theme.
Adjust the “UTC Offset” so sessions align with your local time.
Disable labels or box borders if you prefer a cleaner look.
Inputs Overview:
Show London/New York/Asia Session (bool): Show or hide each session’s box and its high/low rays.
Time Range (session): Defines the start/end of each session in “HHMM–HHMM” (24h) format.
Colour (color): Custom color for each session’s box fill, border, and high/low rays.
Show Session Labels (bool): Toggle the “London,” “New York,” “Asia” text that appears at the top of each completed box.
Show Range Outline (bool): Toggle the box border (if off, only a translucent fill is drawn).
Opacity Preset (Dark/Medium/Light): Controls transparency of box fill and border.
UTC Offset (+/–) (int): Adjusts session times for different time zones (e.g., +1 for UTC+1).
Why It’s Useful:
Quickly Identify Session Activity: Visually distinguish when each major trading session is active, then compare price action across sessions.
Pinpoint High/Low Liquidity Levels: Drawn rays highlight where the market hit its extremes—critical zones for stop orders or breakout entries.
Multi-Timeframe Context: By seeing historical session boxes and rays, you can locate recurring supply/demand areas, overlap zones, or session re-tests.
Fully Automated Workflow: Once added to your chart, the script does all the work of tracking session boundaries and drawing high/low lines—no manual box or line drawing necessary.
Example Use Cases:
London Breakout Traders: See where London’s high/low formed, then wait for price to revisit those levels during the New York session.
Range Breakout Strategies: If price consolidates inside the London box, use the boxed extremes as immediate targets for breakout entries.
Intraday Liquidity Swings: During quieter hours, watch Asia’s high/low to identify potential support/resistance before London’s opening.
Overlap Zones: Compare London’s range with Asia’s range to find areas of confluence—high-probability reversal or continuation zones.

Swing Highs and Lows Detector🔍 Swing Highs and Lows Detector
The Swing Highs and Lows Detector is a powerful tool for traders looking to identify meaningful structural shifts in price action, based on swing point logic and internal trend shifts.
📈 What It Does
This indicator automatically identifies and labels:
HH (Higher High) – Price broke above the previous swing high
LH (Lower High) – Price failed to break the previous high, signaling potential weakness
LL (Lower Low) – Price broke below the previous swing low
HL (Higher Low) – Price maintained a higher support level, indicating strength
The script distinguishes between bullish and bearish internal shifts and tracks the highest/lowest points between those shifts to determine the swing structure.
⚙️ How It Works
You can choose between two shift detection modes:
"Open": Compares closing price to the first open of the opposite streak
"High/Low": Uses the high of bearish or low of bullish candles
Once a shift is confirmed, the indicator scans the bars between shifts to find the most significant swing high or low
When a valid swing is detected, it’s labeled directly on the chart with color-coded markers
🛎️ Built-in Alerts
Set alerts for:
Higher High
Lower High
Lower Low
Higher Low
These alerts help you catch key structural shifts in real time — great for breakout traders, structure-based analysts, and smart money concepts (SMC) strategies.
✅ How to Use
Confirm Trend Strength or Reversals – Use HH/HL to confirm an uptrend, LL/LH to confirm a downtrend
Combine with Liquidity Sweeps or Zones – Ideal for SMC or Wyckoff-style setups
Entry/Exit Triggers – Use swing breaks to time entries or exits near key structural points
IU Bigger than range strategyDESCRIPTION
IU Bigger Than Range Strategy is designed to capture breakout opportunities by identifying candles that are significantly larger than the previous range. It dynamically calculates the high and low of the last N candles and enters trades when the current candle's range exceeds the previous range. The strategy includes multiple stop-loss methods (Previous High/Low, ATR, Swing High/Low) and automatically manages take-profit and stop-loss levels based on user-defined risk-to-reward ratios. This versatile strategy is optimized for higher timeframes and assets like BTC but can be fine-tuned for different instruments and intervals.
USER INPUTS:
Look back Length: Number of candles to calculate the high-low range. Default is 22.
Risk to Reward: Sets the target reward relative to the stop-loss distance. Default is 3.
Stop Loss Method: Choose between:(Default is "Previous High/Low")
- Previous High/Low
- ATR (Average True Range)
- Swing High/Low
ATR Length: Defines the length for ATR calculation (only applicable when ATR is selected as the stop-loss method) (Default is 14).
ATR Factor: Multiplier applied to the ATR to determine stop-loss distance(Default is 2).
Swing High/Low Length: Specifies the length for identifying swing points (only applicable when Swing High/Low is selected as the stop-loss method).(Default is 2)
LONG CONDITION:
The current candle’s range (absolute difference between open and close) is greater than the previous range.
The closing price is higher than the opening price (bullish candle).
SHORT CONDITIONS:
The current candle’s range exceeds the previous range.
The closing price is lower than the opening price (bearish candle).
LONG EXIT:
Stop-loss:
- Previous Low
- ATR-based trailing stop
- Recent Swing Low
Take-profit:

- Previous High
- ATR-based trailing stop
- Recent Swing High
Take-profit:
- Defined by the Risk-to-Reward ratio (default 3x the stop-loss distance).
ALERTS:
Long Entry Triggered
Short Entry Triggered
WHY IT IS UNIQUE:
This strategy dynamically adapts to different market conditions by identifying candles that exceed the previous range, ensuring that it only enters trades during strong breakout scenarios.
Multiple stop-loss methods provide flexibility for different trading styles and risk profiles.
The visual representation of stop-loss and take-profit levels with color-coded plots improves trade monitoring and decision-making.
HOW USERS CAN BENEFIT FROM IT:
Ideal for breakout traders looking to capitalize on momentum-driven price moves.
Provides flexibility to customize stop-loss methods and fine-tune risk management parameters.
Helps minimize drawdowns with a strong risk-to-reward framework while maximizing profit potential.
Swing Breakout System (SBS)The Swing Breakout Sequence (SBS) is a trading strategy that focuses on identifying high-probability entry points based on a specific pattern of price swings. This indicator will identify these patterns, then draw lines and labels to show confirmation.
How To Use:
The indicator will show both Bullish and Bearish SBS patterns.
Bullish Pattern is made up of 6 points: Low (0), HH (1), LL (2 | but higher than initial Low), New HH (3), LL (5), LL again (5)
Bearish Patten is made up of 6 points: High (0), LL (1), HH (2 | but lower than initial high), New LL (3), HH (5), HH again (5)
A label with an arrow will appear at the end, showing the completion of a successful sequence
Idea behind the strategy:
The idea behind this strategy, is the accumulation and then manipulation of liquidity throughout the sequence. For example, during SBS sequence, liquidity is accumulated during step (2), then price will push away to make a new high/low (step 3), after making a minor new high/low, price will retrace breaking the key level set up in step (2). This is price manipulating taking liquidity from behind high/low from step (2). After taking liquidity price the idea is price will continue in the original direction.
Step 0 - Setting up initial direction
Step 1 - Setting up initial direction
Step 2 - Key low/high establishing liquidity
Step 3 - Failed New high/low
Step 4 - Taking liquidity from step (2)
Step 5 - Taking liquidity from step 2 and 4
Pattern Detection:
- Uses pivot high/low points to identify swing patterns
- Stores 6 consecutive swing points in arrays
- Identifies two types of patterns:
1. Bullish Pattern: A specific sequence of higher lows and higher highs
2. Bearish Pattern: A specific sequence of lower highs and lower lows
Note: Because the indicator is identifying a perfect sequence of 6 steps, set ups may not appear frequently.
Visualization:
- Draws connecting lines between swing points
- Labels each point numerically (optional)
- Shows breakout arrows (↑ for bullish, ↓ for bearish)
- Generates alerts on valid breakouts
User Input Settings:
Core Parameters
1. Pivot Lookback Period (default: 2)
- Controls how many bars to look back/forward for pivot point detection
- Higher values create fewer but more significant pivot points
2. Minimum Pattern Height % (default: 0.1)
- Minimum required height of the pattern as a percentage of price
- Filters out insignificant patterns
3. Maximum Pattern Width (bars) (default: 50)
- Maximum allowed width of the pattern in bars
- Helps exclude patterns that form over too long a period

UVR Crypto TrendINDICATOR OVERVIEW: UVR CRYPTO TREND
The UVR Crypto Trend indicator is a custom-built tool designed specifically for cryptocurrency markets, utilizing advanced volatility, momentum, and trend-following techniques. It aims to identify trend reversals and provide buy and sell signals by analyzing multiple factors, such as price volatility(UVR), RSI (Relative Strength Index), CMF (Chaikin Money Flow), and EMA (Exponential Moving Average). The indicator is optimized for CRYPTO MARKETS only.
KEY FEATURES AND HOW IT WORKS
Volatility Analysis with UVR
The UVR (Ultimate Volatility Rate) is a proprietary calculation that measures market volatility by comparing significant price extremes and smoothing the data over time.
Purpose: UVR aims to reduce noise in low-volatility environments and highlight significant movements during higher-volatility periods. While it strives to improve filtering in low-volatility conditions, it does not guarantee perfect performance, making it a balanced and adaptable tool for dynamic markets like cryptocurrency.
HOW UVR (ULTIMATE VOLATILITY RATE) IS CALCULATED
UVR is calculated using a method that ensures precise measurement of market volatility by comparing price extremes across consecutive candles:
Volatility Components:
Two values are calculated to represent potential price fluctuations:
The absolute difference between the current candle's high and the previous candle's low:
Volatility Component 1=∣High−Low ∣
The absolute difference between the previous candle's high and the current candle's low:
Volatility Component 2=∣High −Low∣
Volatility Ratio:
The larger of the two components is selected as the Volatility Ratio, ensuring UVR captures the most significant movement:
Volatility Ratio=max(Volatility Component 1,Volatility Component 2)
Smoothing with SMMA:
To stabilize the volatility calculation, the Volatility Ratio is smoothed using a Smoothed Moving Average (SMMA) over a user-defined period (e.g., 14 candles):
UVR=(UVR(Previous)×(Period−1)+Volatility Ratio)/Period
This calculation ensures UVR adapts dynamically to market conditions, focusing on significant price movements while filtering out noise.
RSI FOR MOMENTUM DETECTION
RSI (Relative Strength Index) identifies overbought and oversold conditions.
Trend Confirmation at the 50 Level
RSI values crossing above 50 signal the potential start of an upward trend.
RSI values crossing below 50 indicate the potential start of a downward trend.
Key Reversals at Extreme Levels
RSI detects trend reversals at overbought (>70) and oversold (<30) levels.
For example:
Overbought Trend Reversal: RSI >70 followed by bearish price action signals a potential downtrend.
Oversold Trend Reversal: RSI <30 with bullish confirmation signals a potential uptrend.
Rare Extreme RSI Readings
Extreme levels, such as RSI <12 (oversold) or RSI >88 (overbought), are used to identify rare yet powerful reversals.
---HOW IT DIFFERS FROM OTHER INDICATORS---
Using UVR High and Low Values
The Ultimate Volatility Rate (UVR) focuses on analyzing the high and low price ranges of the market to measure volatility.
Unlike traditional trend indicators that rely primarily on momentum or moving average crossovers, UVR leverages price extremes to better identify trend reversals.
This approach ensures fewer false signals during low-volatility phases and more accurate trend detection during high-volatility conditions.
UVR as the Core Component
The indicator is fundamentally built around UVR as the primary filter, while supporting tools like RSI (momentum detection), CMF (volume confirmation), and EMA (trend validation) complement its functionality.
By integrating these additional components, the indicator provides a multidimensional analysis rather than relying solely on a single approach.
Dynamic Adaptation to Volatility
UVR dynamically adjusts to market conditions, striving to improve filtering in low-volatility phases. While not flawless, this approach minimizes false signals and adapts more effectively to varying levels of market activity.
Trend Clouds for Visual Guidance
UVR-based dynamic clouds visually mark high and low price areas, highlighting potential consolidation or retracement zones.
These clouds serve as guides for setting stop-loss or take-profit levels, offering clear risk management strategies.
BUY AND SELL SIGNAL LOGIC
BUY CONDITIONS
Momentum-Based Buy-Entry
RSI >50, CMF >0, and the close price is above EMA50.
The price difference between open and close exceeds a threshold based on UVR.
Oversold Reversal
RSI <30 and CMF >0 with a strong bullish candle (close > open and UVR-based sensitivity filter).
Breakout Confirmation
The price breaks above a previously identified resistance, with conditions for RSI and CMF supporting the breakout.
Reversal from Oversold RSI Extreme
RSI <12 on the previous candle with a strong rebound on the current candle with UVR confirmation filter.
SELL CONDITIONS
Momentum-Based Sell-Entry
RSI <50, CMF <0, and the close price is below EMA50.
The price difference between open and close exceeds the UVR threshold.
Overbought Reversal
RSI >70 with bearish price action (open > close and UVR-based sensitivity filter).
Breakdown Confirmation
The price breaks below a previously identified support, with RSI and CMF supporting the breakdown.
Reversal from Overbought RSI Extreme
RSI >88 on the previous candle with a bearish confirmation on the current candle with UVR confirmation filter.
BUY AND SELL SIGNALS VISUALIZATION
The UVR Crypto Trend Indicator visually represents buy and sell conditions using dynamic plots, making it easier for traders to interpret and act on the signals. Below is an explanation of the visual representation:
Buy Signals and Visualization
Signal Trigger:
A buy signal is generated when one of the defined Buy Conditions is met (e.g., RSI >50, CMF >0, price above EMA50).
Visual Representation:
A blue upward arrow appears at the candle where the buy condition is triggered.
A blue cloud forms above the price candles, representing the strength of the bullish trend. The cloud dynamically adapts to market volatility, using the UVR calculation to mark support zones or consolidation levels.
Purpose of the Blue Cloud:
It acts as a visual guide for price movements and stay horizontal when the trend is not moving up
Sell Signals and Visualization
Signal Trigger:
A sell signal is generated when one of the defined Sell Conditions is met (e.g., RSI <50, CMF <0, price below EMA50).
Visual Representation:
A red downward arrow appears at the candle where the sell condition is triggered.
A red cloud forms below the price candles, representing the strength of the bearish trend. Like the blue cloud, it uses the UVR calculation to dynamically mark resistance zones or potential retracement levels.
Purpose of the Red Cloud:
It acts as a visual guide for price movements and stay horizontal when the trend is not moving down.
CONCLUSION
The UVR Crypto Trend indicator provides a powerful tool for trend reversal detection by combining volatility analysis, momentum confirmation, and trend-following techniques. Its unique use of the Ultimate Volatility Rate (UVR) as a core element, supported by proven indicators like RSI, CMF, and EMA, ensures reliable and actionable signals tailored for the crypto market's dynamic nature. By leveraging UVR’s high and low price range analysis, it achieves a level of precision that traditional indicators lack, making it a high-performing system for cryptocurrency traders.
Trading Sessions with Highs and LowsTrading Sessions with Highs and Lows is designed to visually highlight specific trading sessions on the chart, providing traders with key insights into market behavior during these time periods. Here’s a detailed explanation of how the indicator works:
Key Features
1. Session Boxes:
• The indicator plots colored boxes on the chart to represent the price range of defined trading sessions.
• Each box spans the session’s start and end times and encapsulates the high and low prices during that period.
• Two trading sessions are defined by default:
• USA Trading Session: 9:30 AM - 4:00 PM (New York Time).
• UK Trading Session: 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM (London Time).
2. Session Labels:
• The name of the session (e.g., “USA” or “UK”) is displayed above the session box for clear identification.
3. High and Low Markers:
• Markers are added to the chart at the session’s high and low points:
• High Marker: A green label indicating the session high.
• Low Marker: A red label indicating the session low.
4. Dynamic Reset:
• After the session ends, the session high and low values are reset to na to prepare for the next trading day.
5. Customizable Background Colors:
• Each session’s box has a distinct, semi-transparent background color for better visual separation.
How It Works
1. Core Functionality:
• A function, plot_box, takes the session name, start time, end time, and background color as input.
• It calculates whether the current time is within the session.
• During the session:
• It tracks the session’s highest and lowest prices.
• It identifies the bars where the high and low occurred.
• At the session’s end:
• It plots a box on the chart covering the session’s time and price range.
• Labels are created for the session name and its high/low points.
2. Session Timing:
• Timestamps for the USA and UK trading sessions are calculated using the timestamp function with respective time zones.
3. Visual Elements:
• The box.new function draws the session boxes on the chart.
• The label.new function creates session name and high/low labels.
Usage
• Overlay Mode: The indicator is applied directly on the price chart (overlay=true), making it easy to visualize session-specific price behavior.
• Trading Strategy:
• Identify session-specific support and resistance levels.
• Observe price action trends during key trading periods.
• Align trading decisions with session dynamics.
Customization
While the indicator is preset for the USA and UK trading sessions, it can be easily modified:
1. Add/Remove Sessions: Define additional sessions by providing their start and end times.
2. Change Colors: Update the background_color in the plot_box calls to use different colors for sessions.
3. Adjust Time Zones: Replace the current time zones with others relevant to your trading style.
Visualization Example
• USA Session:
• Time: 9:30 AM - 4:00 PM (New York Time).
• Box Color: Semi-transparent orange.
• UK Session:
• Time: 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM (London Time).
• Box Color: Semi-transparent green.
Why Use This Indicator?
1. Market Awareness: Easily spot price behavior during high-liquidity trading periods.
2. Trend Analysis: Analyze how sessions overlap or affect each other.
3. Session Boundaries: Use session high/low levels as dynamic support and resistance zones.

Fib Pivot Points HLThis TradingView indicator allows users to select a specific timeframe (TF) and then analyzes the high, low, and closing prices from the past period within that TF to calculate a central pivot point. The pivot point is determined using the formula (High + Close + Low) / 3, providing a key level around which the market is expected to pivot or change direction.
In addition to the central pivot point, the indicator enhances its utility by incorporating Fibonacci levels. These levels are calculated based on the range from the low to the high of the selected timeframe. For instance, a Fibonacci level like R0.38 would be calculated by adding 38% of the high-low range to the pivot point, giving traders potential resistance levels above the pivot.
Key features of this indicator include:
Timeframe Selection: Users can choose their desired timeframe, such as weekly, daily, etc., for analysis.
Pivot Point Calculation: The indicator calculates the pivot point based on the previous period's high, low, and closing prices within the selected timeframe.
Fibonacci Levels: Adds Fibonacci retracement levels to the pivot point, offering traders additional layers of potential support and resistance based on the natural Fibonacci sequence.
This indicator is particularly useful for traders looking to identify potential turning points in the market and key levels of support and resistance based on historical price action and the Fibonacci sequence, which is widely regarded for its ability to predict market movements.
Example:
Suppose you're analyzing the EUR/USD currency pair using this indicator with a weekly timeframe setting. The previous week's price action showed a high of 1.2100, a low of 1.1900, and the week closed at 1.2000.
Using the formula ( High + Close + Low ) / 3 (High+Close+Low)/3, the pivot point would be calculated as ( 1.2100 + 1.2000 + 1.1900 ) / 3 = 1.2000. Thus, the central pivot point for the current week is at 1.2000.
The range from the low to the high is 1.2100 − 1.1900 = 0.0200 1.2100−1.1900=0.0200.
To calculate a specific Fibonacci level, such as R0.38, you would add 38% of the high-low range to the pivot point: 1.2000 + ( 0.0200 ∗ 0.38 ) = 1.2076 1.2000+(0.0200∗0.38)=1.2076. Thus, the R0.38 Fibonacci resistance level is at 1.2076.
Similarly, you can calculate other Fibonacci levels such as S0.38 (Support level at 38% retracement) by subtracting 38% of the high-low range from the pivot point.
Traders can use the pivot point as a reference for the market's directional bias: prices above the pivot point suggest bullish sentiment, while prices below indicate bearish sentiment. The Fibonacci levels act as potential stepping stones for price movements, offering strategic points for entry, exit, or placing stop-loss orders.
[KVA] Kamvia Directional MovementKamvia Directional Movement (KDM) Indicator is an analytical tool designed to identify potential buying and selling opportunities in the market. It highlights the phases of price depletion which typically align with price highs and lows, offering a nuanced understanding of market dynamics.
Efficient at pinpointing trend breakdowns and excelling in the identification of intra-day entry and exit points, the Kamvia Directional Movement Indicator is a valuable asset for traders aiming to optimize their market strategies.
The KDM not only takes into account the traditional high and low price points within its analysis but also introduces an innovative approach by incorporating the concepts of body high and body low. This nuanced analysis offers a deeper insight into market momentum and potential shifts in market dynamics.
High and Low Analysis : The indicator examines the price highs and lows to gauge the overall market volatility and potential turning points. By analyzing these extremities, traders can get a sense of market strength and possible shifts in trend direction. The high points indicate periods of maximum buying interest, potentially signaling overbought conditions, while the low points reflect selling interest, hinting at oversold conditions.
Body High and Body Low Analysis : Unique to the KDM Indicator is the emphasis on the body of the candlestick, which is the range between the open and close prices. This analysis offers a more refined view of market sentiment by focusing on the actual trading range experienced within the period. The body high (the upper end of the candlestick body) and body low (the lower end of the candlestick body) provide insights into the buying and selling pressure during the trading session, beyond mere price extremities.
The indicator is calibrated on a scale from 0 to 100, making interpretation intuitive and straightforward. A reading above 70 is considered to be in the overbought region, suggesting that the market might be experiencing a heightened level of buying activity that could lead to a potential pullback or reversal. Conversely, a reading below 30 falls into the oversold region, indicating a possible exhaustion in selling pressure and a potential for market reversal or bounce back.
This scale and the detailed analysis of both price and body dynamics equip traders with a comprehensive tool for assessing market conditions. The distinction between high/low and body high/body low analysis enriches the indicator's capability to provide more targeted insights into market behavior, enabling traders to make more nuanced decisions based on a broader spectrum of information. By identifying the duration and extent to which these conditions persist, traders can better interpret the market's momentum and align their strategies with the prevailing trend or prepare for an impending reversal.
KDM Strategy
The strategy focuses on spotting price reversals within a confirmed trend. While the indicator features regions indicating overbought and oversold conditions, these signals alone are not sufficient predictors of a market reversal.
The terms "overbought" and "oversold" describe scenarios where prices reach levels that are unusually high or low within a specified look-back period. Entering these zones often indicates a continuation of the trend rather than a reversal.
A "strongly overbought" condition signals buying pressure, whereas a "strongly oversold" condition indicates selling pressure. The key to leveraging these conditions lies in analyzing the duration for which the market remains in either state. This duration can provide critical insights into whether the market is trending or ranging.
Extended periods in extreme overbought territories confirm an uptrend, while prolonged presence in slight overbought zones (above 50 but below 70, for example) suggests a more moderate uptrend. Conventionally, levels above 70 signal extreme overbought conditions, and those below 30 indicate extreme oversold conditions.
Traders are advised to exercise caution when the oscillator stays within these extreme areas. Ideally, the strategy involves capitalizing on temporary price drops within an overall uptrend or on temporary price spikes within an overall downtrend.
Identifying trading opportunities with the KDM Indicator involves looking for the indicator to exit these extreme overbought or oversold regions, signaling potential reversals or continuations in the market's direction. This approach helps traders make informed decisions by considering the broader market trend alongside short-term price movements.
Fake BreakoutThis indicator detect fake breakout on previous day high/low and option previous swing high and low
Rule Detect Fake Breakout On Previous Day High/Low Or Swing high low Fake Breakout -
1) Detect previous day high/low or swing high/low
2)
A) If price revisit on previous day high/swing high look for upside breakout after input
number of candle (1-5) price came back to previous high and breakout happen downside
it show sell because its fake breakout of previous day high or swing high

libHTF[without request.security()]Library "libHTF"
libHTF: use HTF values without request.security()
This library enables to use HTF candles without request.security().
Basic data structure
Using to access values in the same manner as series variable.
The last member of HTF array is always latest current TF's data.
If new bar in HTF(same as last bar closes), new member is pushed to HTF array.
2nd from the last member of HTF array is latest fixed(closed) bar.
HTF: How to use
1. set TF
tf_higher() function selects higher TF. TF steps are ("1","5","15","60","240","D","W","M","3M","6M","Y").
example:
tfChart = timeframe.period
htf1 = tf_higher(tfChart)
2. set HTF matrix
htf_candle() function returns 1 bool and 1 matrix.
bool is a flag for start of new candle in HTF context.
matrix is HTF candle data(0:open,1:time_open,2:close,3:time_close,4:high,5:time:high,6:low,7:time_low).
example:
=htf_candle(htf1)
3. how to access HTF candle data
you can get values using .lastx() method.
please be careful, return value is always float evenif it is "time". you need to cast to int time value when using for xloc.bartime.
example:
htf1open=m1.lastx("open")
htf1close=m1.lastx("close")
//if you need to use histrical value.
lastopen=open
lasthtf1open=m1.lastx("open",1)
4. how to store Data of HTF context
you have to use array to store data of HTF context.
array.htf_push() method handles the last member of array. if new_bar in HTF, it push new member. otherwise it set value to the last member.
example:
array a_close=array.new(1,na)
a_close.htf_push(b_new_bar1,m1.lastx("close"))
HTFsrc: How to use
1. how to setup src.
set_src() function is set current tf's src from string(open/high/low/close/hl2/hlc3/ohlc4/hlcc4).
set_htfsrc() function returns src array of HTF candle.
example:
_src="ohlc4"
src=set_src(_src)
htf1src=set_htfsrc(_src,b_new_bar1,m1)
(if you need to use HTF src in series float)
s_htf1src=htf1src.lastx()
HighLow: How to use
1. set HTF arrays
highlow() and htfhighlow() function calculates high/low and return high/low prices and time.
the functions return 1 int and 8arrays.
int is a flag for new high(1) or new low(-1).
arrays are high/low and return high/low data. float for price, int for time.
example
=
highlow()
=
htfhighlow(m1)
2. how to access HighLow data
you can get values using .lastx() method.
example:
if i_renew==1
myhigh=a_high.lastx()
//if you need to use histrical value.
myhigh=a_high.lastx(1)
other functions
functions for HTF candle matrix or HTF src array in this script are
htf_sma()/htf_ema()/htf_rma()
htf_rsi()/htf_rci()/htf_dmi()
method lastx(arrayid, lastindex)
method like array.last. it returns lastindex from the last member, if parameter is set.
Namespace types: float
Parameters:
arrayid (float )
lastindex (int) : (int) default value is "0"(the last member). if you need to access historical value, increment it(same manner as series vars).
Returns: float value of lastindex from the last member of the array. returns na, if fail.
method lastx(arrayid, lastindex)
method like array.last. it returns lastindex from the last member, if parameter is set.
Namespace types: int
Parameters:
arrayid (int )
lastindex (int) : (int) default value is "0"(the last member). if you need to access historical value, increment it(same manner as series vars).
Returns: int value of lastindex from the last member of the array. returns na, if fail.
method lastx(m, _type, lastindex)
method for handling htf matrix.
Namespace types: matrix
Parameters:
m (matrix) : (matrix) matrix for htf candle.
_type (string) : (string) value type of htf candle:
lastindex (int) : (int) default value is "0"(the last member).
Returns: (float) value of htf candle. (caution: need to cast float to int to use time values!)
method set_last(arrayid, val)
method to set a value of the last member of the array. it sets value to the last member.
Namespace types: float
Parameters:
arrayid (float )
val (float) : (float) value to set.
Returns: nothing
method htf_push(arrayid, b, val)
method to push new member to htf context. if new bar in htf, it works as push. else it works as set_last.
Namespace types: float
Parameters:
arrayid (float )
b (bool) : (bool) true:push,false:set_last
val (float) : (float) _f the value to set.
Returns: nothing
method tf_higher(tf)
method to set higher tf from tf string. TF steps are .
