Big Whale Purchases and SalesBig Whale Purchases and Sales - plots big whale transactions on your chart!
People that hold more than 1% of a crypto currencies circulating supply are considered whales and have a huge influence on price, not just because they can move the market with their huge transactions, but also because other traders often track their wallets and follow their example. Taking a look at whale holdings, one can see why whale worship is so common in crypto: While Bitcoin has a relatively low whale concentration, many of the Top 100 Cryptocurrencies have whales control 60% or more of their circulating supply.
Integrating IntoTheBlock data, this script plots the transactions of these whales and, in strategy mode, copy trades them.
Features:
Strategy Mode: Switches the script between an indicator and a strategy.
Standard Deviations: The number of Standard Deviations that a transaction needs to surpass to be considered worth plotting. Setting this to 0 will show all whale transactions, higher settings will only show the biggest transactions.
Blockchain: The Chain on which Whale activity is tracked.

Example - MA-Cross Retracement DetectionThe retracement tracker function(s) in this script outline how to:
Track conditions using "toggle" booleans.
Use multiple coinciding conditions to trigger an event just once.
What is a retracement?
"Retracements are temporary price reversals that take place within a
larger trend. The key here is that these price reversals are temporary
and do not indicate a change in the larger trend."

BEST Engulfing + Breakout StrategyHello traders
This is a simple algorithm for a Tradingview strategy tracking a convergence of 2 unrelated indicators.
Convergence is the solution to my trading problems.
It's a puzzle with infinite possibilities and only a few working combinations.
Here's one that I like
- Engulfing pattern
- Price vs Moving average for detecting a breakout
Definition
Take out the notebooks :) and some coffee (good for focus). I'm bullish in coffee
The engulfing pattern is a two-candle reversal pattern.
The second candle completely ‘engulfs’ the real body of the first one, without regard to the length of the tail shadows.
The bullish Engulfing pattern appears in a downtrend and is a combination of one red candle followed by a larger green candle
The bearish Engulfing pattern appears in a downtrend and is a combination of one green candle followed by a larger red candle
Example: imgur.com
We're bored sir... what's the point of all this?
In summary, an engulfing is a pattern to track reversals. (the whole TradingView audience stands up now giving a standing ovation)
Adding the Price vs Moving average filters allows to track reversals with momentums (half of the audience collapsed because this is too awesome)
Ok sir... you picked up my interest
I included some cool backtest filters:
- date range filtering
- flexible take profit in USD value (plotted in blue)
- flexible stop loss in USD value (plotted in red)
All the best

Klinger Safety ZonesThis indicator is based on the Klinger Volume Oscillator, or KVO. The KVO is pretty cool since it can track long-term changes in money flow (both into and out of a market), as well as respond and predict short term price fluctuations.
The Klinger Oscillator determines the direction (or trend) of money flow based on the high, low, and closing price of the security. It then compares all three values (HLC/3) to the previous period’s values to determine how volume should be factored into the KVO. If the current period’s price is greater than that of the previous period, then volume is added. It is subtracted, however, if the price is less than the previous period. This utilization of volume is what makes it an accurate tracker of money flow and a valuable confirmation indicator. This value is often called volume force or the “trend” line.
A fast and slow EMA of the volume force are then calculated. The fast EMA has a smaller window length, while the slow EMA has a larger window. Traders can adjust the lengths of each EMA in the input option menu, but we chose the standard 55 and 34 period lengths as the default settings. We are finally left with the actual KVO value after subtracting the slow EMA from the fast EMA.
The Klinger Oscillator uses a signal line similar to the MACD and many other indicators. The default length for it is 13, but that length can also be adjusted in the input menu. A shorter length will result in more responsiveness but possibly more false signals and whipsaws.
The Chart and Interpretation:
The histogram shows the KVO series. Remember, since the Oscillator represents the difference between the fast and slow EMA, the KVO is bullish when it is greater than zero and bearish when it is less than zero.
When the KVO is greater than zero, the background on the chart is green, meaning that the trend is bullish and traders should look to go long. On the flip side, the background is red when the KVO is less than zero meaning traders should look to go short.
The aqua line plotted on top of the histogram is the signal line.
Here is a quick summary of the histogram colors:
(if KVO > 0 and KVO > signal)
then (color = teal)
if (KVO > 0 and KVO < signal)
then (color = lime)
if (KVO < 0 and KVO < signal)
then (color = red)
if (KVO < 0 and KVO > signal)
then (color = pink)
Users can choose to have the candles change color to match the KVO histogram color by adjusting the setting in the input menu.

Stop Loss Hunting Zones This Pine Script indicator identifies and visualizes potential "stop loss hunting zones" on charts. It marks price levels where institutional traders or market makers might trigger retail stop losses before reversing direction, helping traders avoid false breakouts and better time their entries.
Key Features:
Four Types of Detection Zones-
1.Swing Zones (Red/Green): Identifies swing highs and lows using pivot point analysis where stop losses typically cluster above resistance and below support levels.
2.Breakout Zones (Orange): Detects consolidation periods and marks levels where false breakouts might occur, trapping traders who enter too early.
3.Wick Trap Zones (Purple): Highlights candles with disproportionately large wicks relative to body size, indicating potential stop loss raids with quick reversals.
4.Volume Reversal Zones (Blue): Identifies high-volume reversal patterns where price briefly touches a level before sharply reversing, suggesting stop loss absorption.
Customizable Parameters:
Swing Lookback: Period for pivot point detection (5-100 bars)
Swing Threshold: Minimum percentage move to qualify as a swing (0.5-10%)
Volume Threshold: Multiplier for detecting unusual volume (1-5x average)
Wick Ratio: Minimum wick-to-total range ratio for trap detection (0.3-0.9)
ATR Settings: Length and multiplier for zone buffer calculation
Zone Management: Maximum zones per type and minimum distance between zones
Display Options: Toggle individual zone types, heatmap intensity, labels, and transparency
Visual Features:
Heatmap Mode: Colour intensity reflects how often price has tested each zone
Smart Zone Management: Prevents chart cluttering by limiting zones and removing those too close together
Dynamic Labels: Clear zone identification with customizable display
Adjustable Transparency: Control zone visibility (10-90%)
How It Works:
The indicator uses ATR-based buffers to create zones around detected levels. It tracks price history to calculate "intensity" scores for the heatmap feature, helping identify the most significant hunting zones. The algorithm ensures zones are meaningful by enforcing minimum distances and limiting total zones displayed.
Avoid placing stop losses at obvious levels where hunting is likely
Identify potential reversal points for counter-trend trades
Recognize false breakout patterns before they complete
Time entries after stop loss hunts are absorbed
Technical Details:
Maximum 500 boxes, lines, and labels for comprehensive zone tracking
Compatible with all timeframes
Works on any market (stocks, forex, crypto, futures)
Real-time detection as new bars confirm
This indicator is designed for traders who want to understand where institutional players might target retail stop losses and use that information to their advantage. Please boost & follow for more. Happy trading !!

Multi-indicator Signal Builder [Skyrexio]Overview
Multi-Indicator Signal Builder is a versatile, all-in-one script designed to streamline your trading workflow by combining multiple popular technical indicators under a single roof.
It features a single-entry, single-exit logic, intrabar stop-loss/take-profit handling, an optional time filter, a visually accessible condition table, and a built-in statistics label.
Traders can choose any combination of 12+ indicators (RSI, Ultimate Oscillator, Bollinger %B, Moving Averages, ADX, Stochastic, MACD, PSAR, MFI, CCI, Heikin Ashi, and a “TV Screener” placeholder) to form entry or exit conditions.
This script aims to simplify strategy creation and analysis , making it a powerful toolkit for technical traders.
Indicators Overview
RSI (Relative Strength Index)
Measures recent price changes to evaluate overbought or oversold conditions on a 0–100 scale.
Ultimate Oscillator (UO)
Uses weighted averages of three different timeframes, aiming to confirm price momentum while avoiding false divergences.
Bollinger %B
Expresses price relative to Bollinger Bands, indicating whether price is near the upper band (overbought) or lower band (oversold).
Moving Average (MA)
Smooths price data over a specified period. The script supports both SMA and EMA to help identify trend direction and potential crossovers.
ADX (Average Directional Index)
Gauges the strength of a trend (0–100). Higher ADX signals stronger momentum, while lower ADX indicates a weaker trend.
Stochastic
Compares a closing price to a price range over a given period to identify momentum shifts and potential reversals.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence/Divergence)
Tracks the difference between two EMAs plus a signal line, commonly used to spot momentum flips through crossovers.
PSAR (Parabolic SAR)
Plots a trailing stop-and-reverse dot that moves with the trend. Often used to signal potential reversals when price crosses PSAR.
MFI (Money Flow Index)
Similar to RSI but incorporates volume data. A reading above 80 can suggest overbought conditions, while below 20 may indicate oversold.
CCI (Commodity Channel Index)
Identifies cyclical trends or overbought/oversold levels by comparing current price to an average price over a set timeframe.
Heikin Ashi
A type of candlestick charting that filters out market noise. The script uses a streak-based approach (multiple consecutive bullish or bearish bars) to gauge mini-trends.
TV Screener
A placeholder condition designed to integrate external buy/sell logic (like a TradingView “Buy” or “Sell” rating). Users can override or reference external signals if desired.
Unique Features
Multi-Indicator Entry and Exit
You can selectively enable any subset of 12+ classic indicators, each with customizable parameters and conditions. A position opens only if all enabled entry conditions are met, and it closes only when all enabled exit conditions are satisfied, helping reduce false triggers.
Single-Entry / Single-Exit with Intrabar SL/TP
The script supports a single position at a time. Once a position is open, it monitors intrabar to see if the price hits your stop-loss or take-profit levels before the bar closes, making results more realistic for fast-moving markets.
Time Window Filter
Users may specify a start/end date range during which trades are allowed, making it convenient to focus on specific market cycles for backtesting or live trading.
Condition Table and Statistics
A table at the bottom of the chart lists all active entry/exit indicators. Upon each closed trade, an integrated statistics label displays net profit, total trades, win/loss count, average and median PnL, etc.
Seamless Alerts and Automation
• Configure alerts in TradingView using “Any alert() function call.”
• The script sends JSON alert messages you can route to your own webhook.
• The indicator can be integrated with Skyrexio alert bots to automate execution on major cryptocurrency exchanges.
Optional MA/PSAR Plots
For added visual clarity, optionally plot the chosen moving averages or PSAR on the chart to confirm signals without stacking multiple indicators.
Methodology
Multi-Indicator Entry Logic
When multiple entry indicators are enabled (e.g., RSI + Stochastic + MACD), the script requires all signals to align before generating an entry. Each indicator can be set for crossovers, crossunders, thresholds (above/below), etc. This “AND” logic aims to filter out low-confidence triggers.
Single-Entry Intrabar SL/TP
• One Position At a Time: Once an entry signal triggers, a trade opens at the bar’s close.
• Intrabar Checks: Stop-loss and take-profit levels (if enabled) are monitored on every tick. If either is reached, the position closes immediately, without waiting for the bar to end.
Exit Logic
All Conditions Must Agree: If the trade is still open (SL/TP not triggered), then all enabled exit indicators must confirm a closure before the script exits on the bar’s close.
Time Filter
Optional Trading Window: You can activate a date/time range to constrain entries and exits strictly to that interval.
Justification of Methodology
Indicator Confluence: Combining multiple tools (RSI, MACD, etc.) can reduce noise and false signals.
Intrabar SL/TP: Capturing real-time spikes or dips provides a more precise reflection of typical live trading scenarios.
Single-Entry Model: Straightforward for both manual and automated tracking (especially important in bridging to bots).
Custom Date Range: Helps refine backtesting for specific market conditions or to avoid known irregular data periods.

Supply & Demand (10-MTF) | StableThe Supply & Demand (10-MTF) indicator is a sophisticated technical analysis tool designed to identify high-probability institutional "buy" and "sell" zones across ten different timeframes simultaneously.
Core Functionality
The indicator works by scanning for displacement—sharp, aggressive price movements that leave behind "unfilled orders."
Zone Identification: It identifies a "Base" (the candle before the move) and a "Leg-out" (the momentum candles). If the leg-out meets your momentum strength requirements, a zone is drawn.
Multi-Timeframe Aggregation: Instead of switching between charts, a trader can see 1H Supply, 4H Demand, and Daily Supply zones all layered on a 5-minute chart.
Real-Time Invalidation: The indicator tracks whether price has "mitigated" (broken) a zone. Once a zone is breached by a wick or a close (depending on your settings), it can be hidden or marked as historic.
Why It’s Useful for Traders
1. Confluence Mapping (The "Nest" Strategy)
The most powerful use of this tool is finding Nested Zones. When a 15-minute Demand zone resides inside a 4-hour Demand zone, the probability of a reversal is significantly higher. This indicator makes these high-confluence areas visually obvious.
2. Institutional Footprint Tracking
Institutions do not buy or sell everything at once; they leave footprints in the form of supply and demand imbalances. This tool helps retail traders avoid "buying the top" or "selling the bottom" by showing where the big money actually entered the market.
3. Dynamic Stop Loss & Take Profit
Stop Loss: Traders can place stops just outside the structural boundary of a zone.
Take Profit: Traders can use the opposing HTF (Higher Timeframe) supply zone as a natural target for a long trade.
4. Time Efficiency
Managing 10 timeframes manually is mentally exhausting. This indicator automates the "top-down analysis" process, allowing you to focus on execution rather than chart flipping.
GapFinder & TrapFinderGapFinder Pro is a comprehensive gap detection and trap zone analysis tool designed for traders who understand that unfilled gaps act as price magnets. This indicator automatically identifies, tracks, and monitors price gaps while alerting you to potential bull and bear traps.
Gaps represent areas where price moved so quickly that no transactions occurred—leaving behind "fair value gaps" that price often returns to fill. This indicator makes tracking these opportunities effortless.
Velocity Divergence Radar [JOAT]
Velocity Divergence Radar - Momentum Physics Edition
Overview
Velocity Divergence Radar is an open-source oscillator indicator that applies physics concepts to market analysis. It calculates price velocity (rate of change), acceleration (rate of velocity change), and jerk (rate of acceleration change) to provide a multi-dimensional view of momentum. The indicator also includes divergence detection and force vector analysis.
What This Indicator Does
The indicator calculates and displays:
Velocity - Rate of price change over a configurable period, smoothed with EMA
Acceleration - Rate of velocity change, showing momentum shifts
Jerk (3rd Derivative) - Rate of acceleration change, indicating momentum stability
Force Vectors - Volume-weighted acceleration representing market force
Kinetic Energy - Calculated as 0.5 * mass (volume ratio) * velocity squared
Momentum Conservation - Tracks momentum relative to historical average
Divergence Detection - Identifies when price and velocity diverge at pivots
How It Works
Velocity is calculated as smoothed rate of change:
calculateVelocity(series float price, simple int period) =>
float roc = ta.roc(price, period)
float velocity = ta.ema(roc, period / 2)
velocity
Acceleration is the change in velocity:
calculateAcceleration(series float velocity, simple int period) =>
float accel = ta.change(velocity, period)
float smoothAccel = ta.ema(accel, period / 2)
smoothAccel
Jerk is the change in acceleration:
calculateJerk(series float acceleration, simple int period) =>
float jerk = ta.change(acceleration, period)
float smoothJerk = ta.ema(jerk, period / 2)
smoothJerk
Force is calculated using F = m * a (mass approximated by volume ratio):
calculateForceVector(series float mass, series float acceleration) =>
float force = mass * acceleration
float forceDirection = math.sign(force)
float forceMagnitude = math.abs(force)
Signal Generation
Signals are generated based on velocity behavior:
Bullish Divergence: Price makes lower low while velocity makes higher low
Bearish Divergence: Price makes higher high while velocity makes lower high
Velocity Cross: Velocity crosses above/below zero line
Extreme Velocity: Velocity exceeds 1.5x the upper/lower zone threshold
Jerk Extreme: Jerk exceeds 2x standard deviation
Force Extreme: Force magnitude exceeds 2x average
Dashboard Panel (Top-Right)
Velocity - Current velocity value
Acceleration - Current acceleration value
Momentum Strength - Combined velocity and acceleration strength
Radar Score - Composite score based on velocity and acceleration
Direction - STRONG UP/SLOWING UP/STRONG DOWN/SLOWING DOWN/FLAT
Jerk - Current jerk value
Force Vector - Current force magnitude
Kinetic Energy - Current kinetic energy value
Physics Score - Overall physics-based momentum score
Signal - Current actionable status
Visual Elements
Velocity Line - Main oscillator line with color based on direction
Velocity EMA - Smoothed velocity for trend reference
Acceleration Histogram - Bar chart showing acceleration direction
Jerk Area - Filled area showing jerk magnitude
Vector Magnitude - Line showing combined vector strength
Radar Scan - Oscillating pattern for visual effect
Zone Lines - Upper and lower threshold lines
Divergence Labels - BULL DIV / BEAR DIV markers
Extreme Markers - Triangles at velocity extremes
Input Parameters
Velocity Period (default: 14) - Period for velocity calculation
Acceleration Period (default: 7) - Period for acceleration calculation
Divergence Lookback (default: 10) - Bars to scan for divergence
Radar Sensitivity (default: 1.0) - Zone threshold multiplier
Jerk Analysis (default: true) - Enable 3rd derivative calculation
Force Vectors (default: true) - Enable force analysis
Kinetic Energy (default: true) - Enable energy calculation
Momentum Conservation (default: true) - Enable momentum tracking
Suggested Use Cases
Identify momentum direction using velocity sign and magnitude
Watch for divergences as potential reversal warnings
Use acceleration to detect momentum shifts before price confirms
Monitor jerk for momentum stability assessment
Combine force and kinetic energy for conviction analysis
Timeframe Recommendations
Works on all timeframes. Higher timeframes provide smoother readings; lower timeframes show more granular momentum changes.
Limitations
Physics analogies are conceptual and not literal market physics
Divergence detection uses pivot-based lookback and may lag
Force calculation uses volume ratio as mass proxy
Kinetic energy is a derived metric, not actual energy

Futures Ultra CVD (Pure )Futures Ultra CVD (Pure)
Futures Ultra CVD (Pure) is a volume-driven Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator designed to expose real buying and selling pressure behind price movement. Unlike price-only indicators, this script analyzes how volume is distributed within each bar to determine whether aggressive buyers or sellers are in control, then tracks how that pressure evolves over time.
This version is intentionally pure and ungated: it does not rely on external symbols, market filters, session bias, or macro confirmation. All signals are derived strictly from price, volume, and delta behavior of the active chart, making it suitable for futures, equities, crypto, and FX.
Core Concept: How CVD Is Calculated
For each bar, volume is split into buying pressure and selling pressure using the bar’s price position:
Buying volume increases as price closes closer to the high
Selling volume increases as price closes closer to the low
The difference between buying and selling volume forms Delta:
Positive delta = net aggressive buying
Negative delta = net aggressive selling
This delta is then accumulated into Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) using one of three user-selectable modes:
Total – running cumulative sum of all delta values
Periodic – rolling sum over a fixed lookback period
EMA – smoothed cumulative delta using an exponential average
This flexibility allows traders to choose between raw order-flow tracking or smoother, trend-like behavior depending on timeframe and instrument.
Visual Structure & Histogram Logic
The CVD is displayed as a column histogram, not a line, to emphasize momentum and pressure shifts.
Enhanced coloring provides additional context:
Brighter green/red bars indicate increasing momentum
Muted colors indicate stalling or weakening pressure
Optional footprint-style highlights appear when buy or sell volume overwhelms the opposite side by a user-defined imbalance factor
This allows traders to visually distinguish:
Strength vs weakness
Continuation vs exhaustion
Absorption and aggressive participation
Built-In Order Flow Signals
The script automatically detects and labels key order-flow events:
Strong Delta
Triggered when delta exceeds a user-defined threshold, highlighting unusually aggressive buying or selling.
Delta Surge
Detects sudden expansion in delta compared to the prior bar, often associated with breakout attempts or liquidation events.
Zero-Line Crosses
Marks transitions between net bullish and bearish participation as CVD crosses above or below zero.
CVD Continuation Logic (Trend Confirmation)
Beyond raw delta, the script evaluates CVD structure to identify continuation conditions:
A bullish continuation requires:
Positive and rising CVD
Strong buy delta
Confirmation from at least one of the following:
CVD above its EMA and SMA
Bullish price expansion
Sustained positive delta pressure
Bearish continuation follows the inverse logic.
These continuation signals are designed to confirm participation strength, not predict reversals.
Conflict Detection (Divergence Warning)
The indicator also flags conflict conditions, where:
Strong buying occurs while CVD remains negative
Strong selling occurs while CVD remains positive
These scenarios often precede failed breakouts, absorption zones, or short-term reversals and can be used as cautionary signals.
Alerts & Practical Use
All major events include built-in alerts:
Strong delta
Delta surge
CVD continuations
Zero-line crosses
Buy/sell imbalances
Conflict signals
Alerts can be set to trigger on bar close or intrabar in real time, depending on trader preference.
How Traders Typically Use This Indicator
Confirm breakouts with delta participation
Validate trends using CVD continuation instead of price alone
Identify absorption or exhaustion via conflicts and imbalances
Combine with price structure, VWAP, or market profile tools
This script is not a trading system by itself. It is a decision-support tool designed to reveal what price alone cannot: who is actually in control of the market.
On-Chart Symbols & What They Mean
This script uses a small number of visual symbols to communicate order-flow events clearly and consistently. All symbols are derived directly from the Cumulative Volume Delta calculations described above.
Δ+ (Green Up Arrow)
Strong Buy Delta
Indicates that buying pressure on the current bar exceeded the Strong Delta Threshold
Represents aggressive market buying dominating selling volume
Often appears during breakouts, trend acceleration, or initiative buying
This symbol does not imply direction by itself; it only confirms strong buyer participation.
Δ− (Red Down Arrow)
Strong Sell Delta
Indicates that selling pressure on the current bar exceeded the Strong Delta Threshold
Represents aggressive market selling dominating buying volume
Often appears during breakdowns, liquidation events, or initiative selling
Like Δ+, this symbol measures participation strength, not trade direction.
↑ (Green Label Up)
CVD Bullish Continuation
Appears when all of the following are present:
CVD is positive and increasing
Strong buy delta is detected
At least one confirmation condition is met:
CVD is above its EMA and SMA
Price shows bullish expansion
Consecutive positive delta bars (sustained buying pressure)
This symbol highlights trend continuation supported by volume, not a reversal signal.
↓ (Red Label Down)
CVD Bearish Continuation
Appears when:
CVD is negative and decreasing
Strong sell delta is detected
At least one confirmation condition is met:
CVD is below its EMA and SMA
Price shows bearish expansion
Consecutive negative delta bars (sustained selling pressure)
This indicates bearish continuation with participation confirmation.
Cyan / Orange Histogram Bars
Footprint-Style Volume Imbalance
Cyan bars indicate buy volume exceeds sell volume by the imbalance factor
Orange bars indicate sell volume exceeds buy volume by the imbalance factor
These bars highlight areas where one side is overwhelming the other, often associated with absorption, initiative moves, or failed auctions.
Bright vs Muted Histogram Colors
CVD Momentum State
Bright colors = CVD increasing in the direction of its current bias
Muted colors = CVD losing momentum or stalling
This allows quick visual identification of strengthening vs weakening participation.
Conflict Alerts (No Symbol by Default)
Delta vs CVD Disagreement
These conditions trigger alerts (but no fixed chart icon):
Strong buying while CVD remains negative
Strong selling while CVD remains positive
Conflicts often signal absorption, trap conditions, or short-term exhaustion.
Important Usage Notes
All symbols are informational, not trade entries.
Signals are calculated from price-based volume distribution, not true bid/ask data.
Results depend on the quality of volume data provided by the exchange and TradingView.

Smart Gap Concepts [MarkitTick]💡 This indicator automates the identification and classification of price gaps, commonly known as Fair Value Gaps (FVG) or Imbalances, by integrating market structure and volume analysis. Unlike standard gap detectors that simply highlight empty space on a chart, this script applies algorithmic filters to categorize gaps into three distinct phases of market movement: Breakaway, Runaway, and Exhaustion. This helps traders understand the potential context of a move rather than just seeing a support or resistance zone.
● Originality and Utility
The primary innovation of this tool is its dynamic classification system. It moves beyond visual detection by checking the "why" behind the gap. By referencing Swing Highs and Swing Lows (Market Structure) alongside Volume efficiency, it determines if a gap represents a breakout, a trend continuation, or a climatic end to a move. Additionally, the script features an automated mitigation tracking system that removes gaps from the chart once price has re-tested the midpoint, ensuring the visual workspace remains clean and relevant to current price action.
● Methodology
The script operates on a multi-stage logic engine:
• Gap Detection
It first identifies the core imbalance where the Low of the current bar does not overlap with the High of the bar two periods prior (for bullish gaps), ensuring the intervening candle represents a strong displacement.
• Structural Analysis (Breakaway Gaps)
The script monitors Pivot Highs and Lows. If a gap occurs simultaneously with a close beyond a key structural Pivot, it is classified as a "Breakaway Gap." This signals the potential start of a new trend.
• Volume and Time Analysis (Exhaustion Gaps)
To identify potential reversals, the script looks for "Trend Maturity." If a gap forms after a long duration since the last pivot and is accompanied by a volume spike (defined by the Volume Spike Multiplier), it is labeled as an "Exhaustion Gap."
• Continuation (Runaway Gaps)
If a gap is valid but meets neither the Breakaway nor Exhaustion criteria, it is considered a "Runaway Gap," typically found in the middle of an established trend.
• Dynamic Cleanup
The script tracks the midpoint of every active gap. If price creates a lower low (for bullish gaps) or higher high (for bearish gaps) beyond this midpoint, the gap is considered mitigated and is removed from the screen.
📖 How to Use
Traders can utilize the color-coded classifications to gauge market intent:
Breakaway (Default Blue): Watch these zones for potential trend initiations. These are often high-probability areas for a retest entry after a structure break.
Runaway (Default Orange): These indicate strong momentum. They can be used to trail stop-losses or add to winning positions, as price should ideally not close below these gaps in a healthy trend.
Exhaustion (Default Red): Be cautious when these appear. They suggest the current move is overextended and a reversal or complex pullback may be imminent.
• Exhaustion Gap : A Practical Case Study
• Breakaway Gap: A Practical Case Study
• Runaway Gap : A Practical Case Study
⚙️ Inputs and Settings
Min Gap Size (Points): Filters out insignificant gaps smaller than this threshold.
Structure Lookback: Defines the sensitivity of the Pivot detection (Swing High/Low).
Volume Avg Length & Multiplier: Determines what qualifies as a "Volume Spike" for exhaustion logic.
Trend Maturity: The minimum number of bars required to consider a trend "old" enough for an exhaustion signal.
Visual Settings: Custom colors for each gap type and box extension length.

cd_VW_Cx IMPROVED - Quant VWAP System: Regime, Magnets & Z-ScoQuant VWAP System: Regime, Magnets & Z-Score Matrix
This indicator is a comprehensive Quantitative Trading System designed to move beyond simple support and resistance. Instead of static lines, it uses Statistical Probability (Z-Score) and Standard Deviation to define the current market regime, identify institutional value zones, and project high-probability liquidity targets.
It is engineered for Day Traders and Scalpers (Crypto & Futures) who need to know if the market is Trending, Ranging, or preparing for a Breakout.
1. The "Regime" System (Standard Deviation Bands)
The core engine anchors a VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) to your chosen timeframe (Daily, Weekly, or Monthly) and projects volatility bands based on market variance.
The Trend Zone (Inner Band / 1.0 SD): This is the "Fair Value" zone. In a healthy trend, price will pull back into this zone and hold. A hold here signals a high-probability continuation (Trend Following).
The Reversion Zone (Outer Band / 2.0 SD): This represents a statistical extreme. Price rarely sustains movement beyond 2 Standard Deviations without a reversion. A touch of this band signals "Overbought" or "Oversold" conditions.
2. Liquidity Magnets (Virgin VWAPs)
The script automatically tracks "Unvisited VWAPs" from previous sessions. These are price levels where significant volume occurred but have not yet been re-tested.
The Logic: Algorithms often target these "open loops." The script visualizes them as Blue Dashed Lines with price tags.
Smart Scaling (Anti-Scrunch): Includes a custom "Ghost Engine" that automatically hides or "ghosts" magnets that are too far away. This prevents your chart from being squashed (scrunched) on lower timeframes, keeping your candles perfectly readable while still tracking targets in the background.
3. The Quant Matrix (Dashboard)
A real-time Heads-Up Display (HUD) that interprets the data for you:
Regime: Detects Volatility Squeezes. If the bands compress, it signals "⚠ SQUEEZE", warning you to stop mean-reversion trading and prepare for an explosive breakout.
Bias: Color-coded Trend Direction (Bullish/Bearish) based on VWAP slope.
Signal: actionable text prompts such as "BUY DIP" (Trend Following), "FADE EXT" (Mean Reversion), or "PREP BREAK" (Squeeze).
4. Visual Intelligence
Bold Day Separators: Clear, vertical dotted dividers with Date Stamps to instantly separate trading sessions.
Dynamic Labels: Floating labels on the right axis identify exactly which deviation level is which, preventing chart confusion.
How to Use
Strategy A: The Trend Pullback (continuation)
Check Matrix: Ensure Bias is BULLISH (Green).
Wait: Allow price to pull back into the Inner Band (Dark Green Zone).
Trigger: If price holds the Center VWAP or the -1.0 SD line, enter Long.
Target: The next Liquidity Magnet above or the +2.0 SD band.
Strategy B: The Reversion Fade (Counter-Trend)
Check Matrix: Ensure price is labeled "EXTREME" or Signal says "FADE EXT".
Trigger: Price touches or pierces the Outer Band (2.0 SD).
Action: Enter counter-trend (Short) with a target back to the Center VWAP (Mean Reversion).
Strategy C: The Magnet Target
Identify a "MAGNET" line (Blue Dashed) near current price.
These act as high-probability Take Profit levels. Price will often rush to these levels to "close the loop" before reversing.
Settings
Anchor: Daily (default), Weekly, or Monthly.
Magnet Focus Range: Adjusts how aggressively the script hides distant magnets to fix chart scaling (Default: 2%).
Visuals: Fully customizable colors, label sizes, and dashboard position.
SMA MAD Trend [Alpha Extract]A sophisticated trend identification system that combines Simple Moving Average with Mean Absolute Deviation methodology to create adaptive Super Trend-style bands with advanced strength filtering and gradient visualization. Utilizing ADX-based trend strength validation and slope analysis for signal quality enhancement, this indicator delivers institutional-grade trend detection with dynamic ATR-based ribbon visualization and comprehensive strength measurement. The system's dual-filter architecture eliminates false signals during weak or choppy market conditions while maintaining sensitivity to genuine trend establishment and reversal events.
🔶 Advanced SMA-MAD Band Construction
Implements innovative Mean Absolute Deviation calculation around Simple Moving Average baseline to create volatility-adaptive bands with ratcheting logic for trend persistence. The system calculates MAD by measuring absolute price deviations from the mean, then applies configurable multipliers to generate upper and lower bands that adjust to changing market conditions while preventing premature band violations.
// Core SMA-MAD Framework
SMA_Value = ta.sma(close, SMA_Length)
Mean = ta.sma(close, MAD_Length)
Abs_Deviation = abs(close - Mean)
MAD_Value = ta.sma(Abs_Deviation, MAD_Length)
// Adaptive Bands
Upper_Band = SMA_Value + MAD_Factor * MAD_Value
Lower_Band = SMA_Value - MAD_Factor * MAD_Value
🔶 Intelligent Dual-Filter System
Features comprehensive trend validation using ADX strength measurement and slope analysis to eliminate low-conviction signals during ranging or consolidating markets. The system calculates normalized slope strength using ATR scaling and combines with ADX threshold analysis, generating filtered trend states that distinguish genuine trends from temporary price fluctuations.
🔶 Dynamic Trend Strength Engine
Implements sophisticated strength calculation combining slope intensity and ADX readings to produce normalized 0-100% strength scores with gradient colour intensity modulation. The system normalizes slope by minimum threshold and ADX by configurable level, multiplying factors to create composite strength measurement that drives visual feedback intensity across all indicator elements.
🔶 Super Trend-Style Direction Logic
Utilizes classic Super Trend methodology adapted for SMA-MAD bands, where trend direction flips occur on opposite band violations with persistent state maintenance. The system tracks previous band levels with ratcheting behaviour that adjusts bands only when price movement or new calculations warrant changes, preventing oscillation during normal volatility.
🔶 ATR-Based Ribbon Visualization
Provides dynamic ribbon overlay using ATR-scaled width around the trend line with opacity modulation based on trend strength for intuitive conviction assessment. The system creates upper and lower ribbon bounds at configurable ATR multiples, filling the channel with gradient-adjusted transparency that increases during strong trends and fades during weak conditions.
🔶 Multi-Dimensional Visual Architecture
Provides complete chart integration through trend line overlay, ATR ribbon fills, candle colouring, background glow, and transition signal labels with configurable visibility toggles. The system enables traders to customize display density from minimal (trend line only) to comprehensive (all visual elements) while maintaining consistent colour scheme and strength-based intensity across components.
🔶 Slope Strength Validation
Calculates ATR-normalized slope over configurable lookback periods to measure trend line momentum and filter sideways price action. The system compares absolute slope against minimum threshold requirements, preventing trend signals when price movement relative to the trend line lacks sufficient directional conviction regardless of band position.
🔶 Signal Generation Framework
Generates trend change signals when filtered direction state transitions from bearish to bullish or vice versa, with label placement and alert integration. The system implements state persistence that maintains previous trend until both ADX and slope filters confirm directional change, reducing whipsaw signals while capturing genuine reversals with minimal lag.
🔶 Performance Optimization Framework
Utilizes efficient calculation methods with optimized variable management and configurable parameters for balance between responsiveness and stability. The system includes intelligent state tracking with NA handling for initial bars and smooth gradient calculations that maintain performance across extended historical periods and real-time updates.
This indicator delivers sophisticated trend identification through Mean Absolute Deviation methodology combined with dual-strength filtering for superior signal quality. Unlike traditional Super Trend indicators that rely solely on ATR bands, the SMA-MAD approach uses statistical deviation measurement while incorporating ADX strength and slope validation to eliminate false signals during choppy conditions. The system's gradient-based visual feedback, ATR ribbon visualization, comprehensive dashboard, and multi-dimensional filtering make it essential for traders seeking reliable trend-following approaches with clear conviction measurement across cryptocurrency, forex, and equity markets. The combination of adaptive bands, strength-based transparency, and intelligent filtering creates an institutional-grade trend system suitable for systematic trading strategies.
TRS (Trend Readiness System)TRS – Trend Readiness System
TRS (Trend Readiness System) is a trend-aligned trading framework designed to help you identify stocks that are becoming ready for entry , not just those already breaking out.
Instead of producing noisy buy/sell signals, TRS evaluates trend quality, pullback structure, momentum rebuilding, and market context , and converts them into clear scores, states, and timing awareness — both on the chart and inside the TradingView Screener.
---
Core Philosophy
Strong trends don’t start at the breakout — they start when conditions quietly align.
TRS focuses on:
• Primary trend alignment
• Healthy pullbacks above long-term support
• Early momentum recovery
• Market regime confirmation
• Entry timing (fresh vs late)
---
What TRS Measures
1. Setup Score (Trend Quality)
Answers the question: “Is this stock structurally worth watching?”
Based on:

pD Zones [MMT]pD Zones plots a clean set of intraday high‑of‑day (HOD) and low‑of‑day (LOD) zones that automatically extend forward, flip color on mitigation, and archive as historical levels for context. It is designed to give intraday traders a simple visual map of premium/discount zones derived from a chosen calculation timeframe.
Overview
Objective : Highlight the current day’s HOD/LOD wick zones as actionable intraday support and resistance.
Core logic runs on a user‑selectable source timeframe (default 15m), then projects those zones onto any chart you are trading.
Zones extend into the future, react to price via mitigation logic, and then optionally roll into a dimmed historical layer.
Zone logic
Each session, the script tracks the extreme high and low plus their wick limits (open/close‑based) on the source timeframe to form two intraday zones.
When a new day starts, the finalized prior‑day zones are “locked in” and the current day begins tracking a fresh HOD/LOD pair.
Only one HOD and one LOD zone are created per day, reducing clutter and keeping focus on the most relevant levels.
Mitigation & color flips
Active HOD zones behave as resistance: a decisive break above the top of the box flips it to a bullish (supportive) color profile, while a move back below can re‑flip it.
Active LOD zones behave as support: a break below the bottom of the box flips it to a bearish profile, and a sustained reclaim can re‑flip it as well.
Once mitigated and carried into a new day, zones are restyled with a softer historical color so they remain visible but unobtrusive.
Alerts
When price breaks a HOD zone to the upside, the script can trigger an alert message noting that HOD resistance has been broken and showing the exact level.
When price breaks a LOD zone to the downside, an alert notes that LOD support has been broken, again with the precise price printed.
These alerts are meant for intraday confirmation of structure shifts at key daily extremes, rather than frequent scalper signals.
Inputs & customization
- Calculation Timeframe: choose which timeframe defines the daily HOD/LOD zones (e.g., 5m, 15m, 1h), independent from the chart.
- Visual Settings: customize support/resistance fill colors and border color to integrate with existing layouts.
- Logic Settings:
Max Active Zones: cap how many live zones remain on the chart at once to control noise.
Max Historical Zones: keep only the most recent historical levels or show all past days.
Zone Extension Offset (Bars): control how aggressively boxes project into the future.
- Mitigation Settings: choose the historical zone color to distinguish active levels from archived ones at a glance.
Statistcal Daily Profile & Ranges# Statistical Daily Profile & Ranges - TradingView Publication Guide
## Overview
The **Statistical Daily Profile & Ranges** indicator is a comprehensive tool designed to analyze intraday session behavior and daily range characteristics. It combines Average Daily Range (ADR) projection levels with detailed session-by-session statistics and probability-based trading insights derived from historical price action patterns.
## What This Indicator Does
This indicator provides traders with three core analytical components:
1. **ADR Projection Levels** - Dynamic support/resistance levels based on historical daily ranges
2. **Session Range Analysis** - Visual boxes and statistical breakdowns for four key trading sessions
3. **Dynamic Probability Display** - Real-time probability statistics based on overnight session relationships
## How It Works
### Average Daily Range (ADR) Calculation
The indicator calculates the average daily range over a user-defined lookback period (default: 10 days) and projects this range from each day's opening price. This creates two key levels:
- **ADR High**: Opening price + average daily range
- **ADR Low**: Opening price - average daily range
- **ADR Median**: The opening price (middle of the projected range)
These levels are recalculated at the start of each trading day and extend forward, providing dynamic support and resistance zones based on recent volatility characteristics.
### Session Tracking & Statistics
The indicator monitors four distinct trading sessions (times in Eastern Time):
1. **Asia Session** (8:00 PM - 2:00 AM)
2. **London Session** (2:00 AM - 8:00 AM)
3. **NY Open** (8:00 AM - 9:00 AM)
4. **NY Initial Balance** (9:30 AM - 10:30 AM)
For each session, the indicator:
- Draws a colored box showing the session's high-to-low range
- Tracks the opening price, high, and low
- Stores historical data for statistical analysis
- Calculates average ranges by day of week (Monday through Friday)
The session statistics are displayed in a customizable table showing average point ranges for each session across different weekdays, helping traders identify which sessions and days typically produce the most movement.
### Dynamic Probability System
The indicator analyzes the relationship between the Asia and London sessions to determine the current market setup. After the London session closes, it automatically detects one of four possible conditions:
**1. London Engulfs Asia**
- London session breaks both above Asia's high AND below Asia's low
- This indicates strong momentum during the European session
- Most common occurrence pattern
**2. Asia Engulfs London**
- Asia session range completely contains the London session range
- Indicates consolidation during London hours
- Relatively rare pattern (occurs approximately 5.36% of the time)
**3. London Partially Engulfs Upwards**
- London breaks above Asia's high but stays above Asia's low
- Suggests bullish momentum continuation from Asia into London
**4. London Partially Engulfs Downwards**
- London breaks below Asia's low but stays below Asia's high
- Suggests bearish momentum continuation from Asia into London
Once a condition is detected, the indicator displays a probability table showing historically observed outcomes for that specific setup, including:
- Probability of NY session taking out key levels (Asia high/low, London high/low)
- Probability of NY session engulfing the entire overnight range
- Directional bias for NY Cash session (9:30 AM - 4:00 PM)
## How to Use This Indicator
### Initial Setup
1. Add the indicator to your chart (works on any intraday timeframe below Daily)
2. Adjust the **ADR Days** setting (default: 10) to control the lookback period for range calculation
3. Adjust the **Session Lookback Days** setting (default: 50) to determine how much historical data feeds the statistics tables
### Reading the ADR Levels
- Use the **ADR High** and **ADR Low** lines as potential profit targets or areas where price may encounter resistance
- The **ADR Median** line represents the opening price and can act as a pivot point for intraday directional bias
- If price reaches the ADR High early in the session, it suggests strong bullish momentum; conversely for ADR Low
- These levels adapt daily based on recent volatility, making them more responsive than static levels
### Interpreting Session Boxes
- **Session boxes** visually highlight when each trading session is active and its price range
- Larger boxes indicate higher volatility during that session
- Compare current session ranges to the statistical averages shown in the table
- Sessions that are unusually quiet or active relative to historical averages may signal compression or expansion
### Using the Session Statistics Table
- The table shows average point ranges for each session broken down by weekday
- Identify which sessions typically produce the most movement on specific days
- For example, if London on Thursdays averages 40 points while Mondays average 25 points, you can adjust position sizing or expectations accordingly
- The **Total** column shows the overall average across all days
- Sample sizes (shown in brackets if enabled) indicate data reliability
### Trading with the Probability Table
The probability table updates dynamically after the London session closes and shows statistically probable outcomes based on 12 years of NQ futures data.
**Important Limitations:**
- **These probabilities are derived from NQ (Nasdaq E-mini futures) data only**
- **Do NOT apply these probability statistics to other instruments** (ES, stocks, forex, etc.)
- The probabilities represent historical frequencies, not guarantees
- Always combine with your own analysis, risk management, and market context
**How to Apply the Probabilities:**
When **London Engulfs Asia**:
- Watch for NY session to take out London's extremes (72.33% probability for high, 71.12% for low)
- Slight bullish bias in NY Cash session (54.80% vs 45.20%)
- Lower probability of complete overnight engulfment (44.13%)
When **Asia Engulfs London** (rare - 5.36% occurrence):
- Higher probability NY takes Asia's high (75.86%)
- Moderately high probability NY takes Asia's low (65.52%)
- Slight increase in bullish bias (58.42% vs 41.58%)
- Recognize this as an unusual setup
When **London Partially Engulfs Upwards**:
- Very high probability NY takes London high (81.51%)
- Strong probability NY takes London low (64.45%)
- Moderate probability NY takes Asian low (53.16%)
- Slight bullish bias (55.52%)
When **London Partially Engulfs Downwards**:
- Very high probability NY takes London low (75.29%)
- Strong probability NY takes London high (68.80%)
- Moderate probability NY takes Asian high (56.44%)
- Slight bullish bias maintained (52.99%)
### Practical Trading Applications
**Scenario 1: Range Projection**
If the ADR is 500 points and the market opens at 25,000:
- ADR High: 25,500 (potential resistance/target)
- ADR Low: 24,500 (potential support/target)
- Monitor how price interacts with these levels throughout the day
**Scenario 2: Session-Based Trading**
Using the statistics table, you notice London on Wednesdays averages 35 points. During a Wednesday London session:
- If London has already moved 30 points, the session may be exhausting its typical range
- If London has only moved 15 points with an hour remaining, there may be expansion potential
- Adjust stop losses and targets based on typical session behavior
**Scenario 3: Probability-Based Setup**
It's 8:05 AM ET and the indicator shows "London Partially Engulfs Upwards":
- You now know there's an 81.51% historical probability NY will take out London's high
- There's a 53.16% probability NY will reach down to Asia's low
- The NY Cash session has a slight bullish bias (55.52%)
- Consider this alongside your technical analysis for directional bias and level targeting
## Customization Options

- **Probabilities Table**: Separate position and size controls, toggle on/off
### Session Times
- Each session's time range can be customized to fit different markets or preferences
- All times are in Eastern Time (America/New_York timezone)
## Technical Notes
### Data Requirements
- The indicator requires sufficient historical data based on your lookback settings
- Minimum recommended: 50+ days of intraday data for reliable statistics
- Works on any timeframe below Daily (1-minute, 5-minute, 15-minute, etc.)
### Calculation Methodology
- **ADR Calculation**: Simple average of absolute daily high-low ranges
- **Session Statistics**: Mean average of ranges for each session filtered by day of week
- **Condition Detection**: Boolean logic comparing session high/low relationships
- All calculations update in real-time as new bars form
### Probability Data Source
The probability statistics displayed in the dynamic table are derived from:
- **Dataset**: 12 years of NQ (Nasdaq E-mini futures) historical data
- **Methodology**: Frequency analysis of outcomes following specific setup conditions
- **Time Period**: Multiple market cycles including various volatility regimes
**Critical Warning**: These probabilities are specific to NQ and reflect that instrument's behavior patterns. Market microstructure, participant behavior, and volatility characteristics differ significantly across instruments. Do not apply these NQ-derived probabilities to other markets (ES, RTY, YM, individual stocks, forex, commodities, etc.).
## Best Practices
1. **Combine with Other Analysis**: Use this indicator as one component of a complete trading methodology, not a standalone system
2. **Respect Risk Management**: Probabilities are not certainties; always use proper position sizing and stop losses
3. **Context Matters**: High-impact news events, holiday trading, and extreme volatility can invalidate typical patterns
4. **Verify Statistics**: Monitor your own results and compare to the displayed probabilities
5. **Adapt Session Times**: If trading instruments with different active hours, adjust session times accordingly
6. **Regular Calibration**: Periodically review if the session averages and probabilities remain relevant to current market conditions
## Understanding Originality
This indicator is original in its approach to combining three analytical frameworks into a single tool:
1. **Dynamic ADR Projection**: Unlike static pivot points, these levels adapt daily based on recent volatility
2. **Session-Specific Statistics**: Goes beyond simple volume profiles by quantifying average ranges for specific time windows across weekdays
3. **Conditional Probability Display**: Automatically detects overnight session relationships and displays relevant probability data rather than showing all scenarios simultaneously
The conditional logic system that determines which probability set to display is a key differentiator—traders only see the statistics relevant to the current market setup, reducing information overload and improving decision-making clarity.
## Summary
The **Statistical Daily Profile & Ranges** indicator provides traders with a comprehensive framework for understanding daily range potential, session-specific behavior patterns, and probability-based setup analysis. By combining ADR projection levels with detailed session statistics and dynamic probability displays, traders gain multiple perspectives on potential price movement within the trading day.
The indicator is most effective when used to:
- Set realistic profit targets based on average daily range
- Identify which sessions typically produce movement on specific weekdays
- Understand probability-weighted outcomes for different overnight setup conditions (NQ only)
- Visualize session ranges and compare them to historical averages
Remember that all statistical analysis reflects historical patterns, and market behavior can change. Always combine indicator signals with sound risk management, proper position sizing, and your own market analysis.
FVG Heatmap [Hash Capital Research]FVG Map
FVG Map is a visual Fair Value Gap (FVG) mapping tool built to make displacement imbalances easy to see and manage in real time. It detects 3-candle FVG zones, plots them as clean heatmap boxes, tracks partial mitigation (how much of the zone has been filled), and summarizes recent “fill speed” behavior in a small regime dashboard.
This is an indicator (not a strategy). It does not place trades and it does not publish performance claims. It is a market-structure visualization tool intended to support discretionary or systematic workflows.
What this script detects
Bullish FVG (gap below price)
A bullish FVG is detected when the candle from two bars ago has a high below the current candle’s low.
The zone spans from that prior high up to the current low.
Bearish FVG (gap above price)
A bearish FVG is detected when the candle from two bars ago has a low above the current candle’s high.
The zone spans from the current high up to that prior low.
What makes it useful
Heatmap zones (clean, readable FVG boxes)
Bullish zones plot below price. Bearish zones plot above price.
Partial fill tracking (mitigation progress)
As price trades back into a zone, the script visually shows how much of the zone has been filled.
Mitigation modes (your definition of “filled”)
• Full Fill: price fully trades through the zone
• 50% Fill: price reaches the midpoint of the zone
• First Touch: price touches the zone one time
Optional auto-cleanup

Impulse Reactor RSI-SMA Trend Indicator [ApexLegion]Impulse Reactor RSI-SMA Trend Indicator
Introduction and Theoretical Background
Design Rationale
Standard indicators frequently generate binary 'BUY' or 'SELL' signals without accounting for the broader market context. This often results in erratic "Flip-Flop" behavior, where signals are triggered indiscriminately regardless of the prevailing volatility regime.
Impulse Reactor was engineered to address this limitation by unifying two critical requirements: Quantitative Rigor and Execution Flexibility.
The Solution
Composite Analytical Framework This script is not a simple visual overlay of existing indicators. It is an algorithmic synthesis designed to function as a unified decision-making engine. The primary objective was to implement rigorous quantitative analysis (Volatility Normalization, Structural Filtering) directly within an alert-enabled framework. This architecture is designed to process signals through strict, multi-factor validation protocols before generating real-time notifications, allowing users to focus on structurally validated setups without manual monitoring.
How It Works
This is not a simple visual mashup. It utilizes a cross-validation algorithm where the Trend Structure acts as a gatekeeper for Momentum signals:
Logic over Lag: Unlike simple moving average crossovers, this script uses a 15-layer Gradient Ribbon to detect "Laminar Flow." If the ribbon is knotted (Compression), the system mathematically suppresses all signals.
Volatility Normalization: The core calculation adapts to ATR (Average True Range). This means the indicator automatically expands in volatile markets and contracts in quiet ones, maintaining accuracy without constant manual tweaking.
Adaptive Signal Thresholding: It incorporates an 'Anti-Greed' algorithm (Dynamic Thresholding) that automatically adjusts entry criteria based on trend duration. This logic aims to mitigate the risk of entering positions during periods of statistical trend exhaustion.
Why Use It?
Market State Decoding: The gradient Ribbon visualizes the underlying trend phase in real-time.
◦ Cyan/Blue Flow: Strong Bullish Trend (Laminar Flow).
◦ Magenta/Pink Flow: Strong Bearish Trend.
◦ Compressed/Knotted: When the ribbon lines are tightly squeezed or overlapping, it signals Consolidation. The system filters signals here to avoid chop.
Noise Reduction: The goal is not to catch every pivot, but to isolate high-confidence setups. The logic explicitly filters out minor fluctuations to help maintain position alignment with the broader trend.
⚖️ Chapter 1: System Architecture
Introduction: Composite Analytical Framework
System Overview
Impulse Reactor serves as a comprehensive technical analysis engine designed to synthesize three distinct market dimensions—Momentum, Volatility, and Trend Structure—into a unified decision-making framework. Unlike traditional methods that analyze these metrics in isolation, this system functions as a central processing unit that integrates disparate data streams to construct a coherent model of market behavior.
Operational Objective
The primary objective is to transition from single-dimensional signal generation to a multi-factor assessment model. By fusing data from the Impulse Core (Volatility), Gradient Oscillator (Momentum), and Structural Baseline (Trend), the system aims to filter out stochastic noise and identify high-probability trade setups grounded in quantitative confluence.
Market Microstructure Analysis: Limitations of Conventional Models
Extensive backtesting and quantitative analysis have identified three critical inefficiencies in standard oscillator-based strategies:
• Bounded Oscillator Limitations (The "Oscillation Trap"): Traditional indicators such as RSI or Stochastics are mathematically constrained between fixed values (0 to 100). In strong trending environments, these metrics often saturate in "overbought" or "oversold" zones. Consequently, traders relying on static thresholds frequently exit structurally valid positions prematurely or initiate counter-trend trades against prevailing momentum, resulting in suboptimal performance.
• Quantitative Blindness to Quality: Standard moving averages and trend indicators often fail to distinguish the qualitative nature of price movement. They treat low-volume drift and high-velocity expansion identically. This inability to account for "Volatility Quality" leads to delayed responsiveness during critical market events.
• Fractal Dissonance (Timeframe Disconnect): Financial markets exhibit fractal characteristics where trends on lower timeframes may contradict higher timeframe structures. Manual integration of multi-timeframe analysis increases cognitive load and susceptibility to human error, often resulting in conflicting biases at the point of execution.
Core Design Principles
To mitigate the aforementioned systemic inefficiencies, Impulse Reactor employs a modular architecture governed by three foundational principles:
Principle A:
Volatility Precursor Analysis Market mechanics demonstrate that volatility expansion often functions as a leading indicator for directional price movement. The system is engineered to detect "Volatility Deviation" — specifically, the divergence between short-term and long-term volatility baselines—prior to its manifestation in price action. This allows for entry timing aligned with the expansion phase of market volatility.
Principle B:
Momentum Density Visualization The system replaces singular momentum lines with a "Momentum Density" model utilizing a 15-layer Simple Moving Average (SMA) Ribbon.
• Concept: This visualization represents the aggregate strength and consistency of the trend.
• Application: A fully aligned and expanded ribbon indicates a robust trend structure ("Laminar Flow") capable of withstanding minor counter-trend noise, whereas a compressed ribbon signals consolidation or structural weakness.
Principle C:
Adaptive Confluence Protocols Signal validity is strictly governed by a multi-dimensional confluence logic. The system suppresses signal generation unless there is synchronized confirmation across all three analytical vectors:
1. Volatility: Confirmed expansion via the Impulse Core.
2. Momentum: Directional alignment via the Hybrid Oscillator.
3. Structure: Trend validation via the Baseline. This strict filtering mechanism significantly reduces false positives in non-trending (choppy) environments while maintaining sensitivity to genuine breakouts.
🔍 Chapter 2: Core Modules & Algorithmic Logic
Module A: Impulse Core (Normalized Volatility Deviation)
Operational Logic The Impulse Core functions as a volatility-normalized momentum gauge rather than a standard oscillator. It is designed to identify "Volatility Contraction" (Squeeze) and "Volatility Expansion" phases by quantifying the divergence between short-term and long-term volatility states.
Volatility Z-Score Normalization
The formula implements a custom normalization algorithm. Unlike standard oscillators that rely on absolute price changes, this logic calculates the Z-Score of the Volatility Spread.
◦ Numerator: (atr_f - atr_s) captures the raw momentum of volatility expansion.
◦ Denominator: (std_f + 1e-6) standardizes this value against historical variance.
◦ Result: This allows the indicator scales consistently across assets (e.g., Bitcoin vs. Euro) without manual recalibration.
f_impulse() =>
atr_f = ta.atr(fastLen) // Fast Volatility Baseline
atr_s = ta.atr(slowLen) // Slow Volatility Baseline
std_f = ta.stdev(atr_f, devLen) // Volatility Standard Deviation
(atr_f - atr_s) / (std_f + 1e-6) // Normalized Differential Calculation
Algorithmic Framework
• Differential Calculation: The system computes the spread between a Fast Volatility Baseline (ATR-10) and a Slow Volatility Baseline (ATR-30).
• Normalization Protocol: To standardize consistency across diverse asset classes (e.g., Forex vs. Crypto), the raw differential is divided by the standard deviation of the volatility itself over a 30-period lookback.
• Signal Generation:
◦ Contraction (Squeeze): When the Fast ATR compresses below the Slow ATR, it registers a potential volatility buildup phase.
◦ Expansion (Release): A rapid divergence of the Fast ATR above the Slow ATR signals a confirmed volatility expansion, validating the strength of the move.
Module B: Gradient Oscillator (RSI-SMA Hybrid)
Design Rationale To mitigate the "noise" and "false reversal" signals common in single-line oscillators (like standard RSI), this module utilizes a 15-Layer Gradient Ribbon to visualize momentum density and persistence.
Technical Architecture
• Ribbon Array: The system generates 15 sequential Simple Moving Averages (SMA) applied to a volatility-adjusted RSI source. The length of each layer increases incrementally.
• State Analysis:
Momentum Alignment (Laminar Flow): When all 15 layers are expanded and parallel, it indicates a robust trend where buying/selling pressure is distributed evenly across multiple timeframes. This state helps filter out premature "overbought/oversold" signals.
• Consolidation (Compression): When the distance between the fastest layer (Layer 1) and the slowest layer (Layer 15) approaches zero or the layers intersect, the system identifies a "Non-Tradable Zone," preventing entries during choppy market conditions.
// Laminar Flow Validation
f_validate_trend() =>
// Calculate spread between Ribbon layers
ribbon_spread = ta.stdev(ribbon_array, 15)
// Only allow signals if Ribbon is expanded (Laminar Flow)
is_flowing = ribbon_spread > min_expansion_threshold
// If compressed (Knotted), force signal to false
is_flowing ? signal : na
Module C: Adaptive Signal Filtering (Behavioral Bias Mitigation)
This subsystem, operating as an algorithmic "Anti-Greed" Mechanism, addresses the statistical tendency for signal degradation following prolonged trends.
Dynamic Threshold Adjustment
• Win Streak Detection: The algorithm internally tracks the outcome of closed trade cycles.
• Sensitivity Multiplier: Upon detecting consecutive successful signals in the same direction, a Penalty_Factor is applied to the entry logic.
• Operational Impact: This effectively raises the Required_Slope threshold for subsequent signals. For example, after three consecutive bullish signals, the system requires a 30% steeper trend angle to validate a fourth entry. This enforces stricter discipline during extended trends to reduce the probability of entering at the point of trend exhaustion.
Anti-Greed Logic: Dynamic Threshold Calculation
f_adjust_threshold(base_slope, win_streak) =>
// Adds a 10% penalty to the difficulty for every consecutive win
penalty_factor = 0.10
risk_scaler = 1 + (win_streak * penalty_factor)
// Returns the new, harder-to-reach threshold
base_slope * risk_scaler
Module D: Trend Baseline (Triple-Smoothed Structure)
The Trend Baseline serves as the structural filter for all signals. It employs a Triple-Smoothed Hybrid Algorithm designed to balance lag reduction with noise filtration.
Smoothing Stages
1. Volatility Banding: Utilizes a SuperTrend-based calculation to establish the upper and lower boundaries of price action.
2. Weighted Filter: Applies a Weighted Moving Average (WMA) to prioritize recent price data.
3. Exponential Smoothing: A final Exponential Moving Average (EMA) pass is applied to create a seamless baseline curve.
Functionality
This "Heavy" baseline resists minor intraday volatility spikes while remaining responsive to sustained structural shifts. A signal is only considered valid if the price action maintains structural integrity relative to this baseline
🚦 Chapter 3: Risk Management & Exit Protocols
Quantitative Risk Management (TP/SL & Trailing)
Foundational Architecture: Volatility-Adjusted Geometry Unlike strategies relying on static nominal values, Impulse Reactor establishes dynamic risk boundaries derived from quantitative volatility metrics. This design aligns trade invalidation levels mathematically with the current market regime.
• ATR-Based Dynamic Bracketing:
The protocol calculates Stop-Loss and Take-Profit levels by applying Fibonacci coefficients (Default: 0.786 for SL / 1.618 for TP) to the Average True Range (ATR).
◦ High Volatility Environments: The risk bands automatically expand to accommodate wider variance, preventing premature exits caused by standard market noise.
◦ Low Volatility Environments: The bands contract to tighten risk parameters, thereby dynamically adjusting the Risk-to-Reward (R:R) geometry.
• Close-Validation Protocol ("Soft Stop"):
Institutional algorithms frequently execute liquidity sweeps—driving prices briefly below key support levels to accumulate inventory.
◦ Mechanism: When the "Soft Stop" feature is enabled, the system filters out intraday volatility spikes. The stop-loss is conditional; execution is triggered only if the candle closes beyond the invalidation threshold.
◦ Strategic Advantage: This logic distinguishes between momentary price wicks and genuine structural breakdowns, preserving positions during transient volatility.
• Step-Function Trailing Mechanism:
To protect unrealized PnL while allowing for normal price breathing, a two-phase trailing methodology is employed:
◦ Phase 1 (Activation): The trailing function remains dormant until the price advances by a pre-defined percentage threshold.
◦ Phase 2 (Dynamic Floor): Once armed, the stop level creates a moving floor, adjusting relative to price action while maintaining a volatility-based (ATR) buffer to systematically protect unrealized PnL.
• Algorithmic Exit Protocols (Dynamic Liquidity Analysis)
◦ Rationale: Inefficiencies of Static Targets Static "Take Profit" levels often result in suboptimal exits. They compel traders to close positions based on arbitrary figures rather than evolving market structure, potentially capping upside during significant trends or retaining positions while the underlying trend structure deteriorates.
◦ Solution: Structural Integrity Assessment The system utilizes a Dynamic Liquidity Engine to continuously audit the validity of the position. Instead of targeting a specific price point, the algorithm evaluates whether the trend remains statistically robust.
Multi-Factor Exit Logic (The Tri-Vector System)
The Smart Exit protocol executes only when specific algorithmic invalidation criteria are met:
• 1. Momentum Exhaustion (Confluence Decay): The system monitors a 168-hour rolling average of the Confluence Score. A significant deviation below this historical baseline indicates momentum exhaustion, signaling that the driving force behind the trend has dissipated prior to a price reversal. This enables preemptive exits before a potential drawdown.
• 2. Statistical Over-Extension (Mean Reversion): Utilizing the core volatility logic, the system identifies instances where price deviates beyond 2.0 standard deviations from the mean. While the trend may be technically bullish, this statistical anomaly suggests a high probability of mean reversion (elastic snap-back), triggering a defensive exit to capitalize on peak valuation.
• 3. Oscillator Rejection (Immediate Pivot): To manage sudden V-shaped volatility, the system monitors RSI pivots. If a sharp "Pivot High" or divergence is detected, the protocol triggers an immediate "Peak Exit," bypassing standard trend filters to secure liquidity during high-velocity reversals.
🎨 Chapter 4: Visualization Guide
Gradient Oscillator Ribbon
The 15-layer SMA ribbon visualized via plot(r1...r15) represents the "Momentum Density" of the market.
• Visuals:
◦ Cyan/Blue Ribbon: Indicates Bullish Momentum.
◦ Pink/Magenta Ribbon: Indicates Bearish Momentum.
• Interpretation:
◦ Laminar Flow: When the ribbon expands widely and flows in parallel, it signifies a robust trend where momentum is distributed evenly across timeframes. This is the ideal state for trend-following.
◦ Compression (Consolidation): If the ribbon becomes narrow, twisted, or knotted, it indicates a "Non-Tradable Zone" where the market lacks a unified direction. Traders are advised to wait for clarity.
◦ Over-Extension: If the top layer crosses the Overbought (85) or Oversold (15) lines, it visually warns of potential market overheating.
Trend Baseline
The thick, color-changing line plotted via plot(baseline) represents the Structural Backbone of the market.
• Visuals: Changes color based on the trend direction (Blue for Bullish, Pink for Bearish).
• Interpretation:
Structural Filter: Long positions are statistically favored only when price action sustains above this baseline, while short positions are favored below it.
Dynamic Support/Resistance: The baseline acts as a dynamic support level during uptrends and resistance during downtrends.
Entry Signals & Labels
Text labels ("Long Entry", "Short Entry") appear when the system detects high-probability setups grounded in quantitative confluence.
• Visuals: Labeled signals appear above/below specific candles.
• Interpretation:
These signals represent moments where Volatility (Expansion), Momentum (Alignment), and Structure (Trend) are synchronized.
Smart Exit: Labels such as "Smart Exit" or "Peak Exit" appear when the system detects momentum exhaustion or structural decay, prompting a defensive exit to preserve capital.
Dynamic TP/SL Boxes
The semi-transparent colored zones drawn via fill() represent the risk management geometry.
• Visuals: Colored boxes extending from the entry point to the Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) levels.
• Function:
Volatility-Adjusted Geometry: Unlike static price targets, these boxes expand during high volatility (to prevent wicks from stopping you out) and contract during low volatility (to optimize Risk-to-Reward ratios).
SAR + MACD Glow
Small glowing shapes appearing above or below candles.
• Visuals: Triangle or circle glows near the price bars.
• Interpretation:
This visual indicates a secondary confirmation where Parabolic SAR and MACD align with the main trend direction. It serves as an additional confluence factor to increase confidence in the trade setup.
Support/Resistance Table
A small table located at the bottom-right of the chart.
• Function: Automatically identifies and displays recent Pivot Highs (Resistance) and Pivot Lows (Support).
• Interpretation: These levels can be used as potential targets for Take Profit or invalidation points for manual Stop Loss adjustments.
🖥️ Chapter 5: Dashboard & Operational Guide
Integrated Analytics Panel (Dashboard Overview)
To facilitate rapid decision-making without manual calculation, the system aggregates critical market dimensions into a unified "Heads-Up Display" (HUD). This panel monitors real-time metrics across multiple timeframes and analytical vectors.
A. Intermediate Structure (12H Trend)
• Function: Anchors the intraday analysis to the broader market structure using a 12-hour rolling window.
• Interpretation:
◦ Bullish (> +0.5%): Indicates a positive structural bias. Long setups align with the macro flow.
◦ Bearish (< -0.5%): Indicates structural weakness. Short setups are statistically favored.
◦ Neutral: Represents a ranging environment where the Confluence Score becomes the primary weighting factor.
B. Composite Confluence Score (Signal Confidence)
• Definition: A probability metric derived from the synchronization of Volatility (Impulse Core), Momentum (Ribbon), and Trend (Baseline).
• Grading Scale:
Strong Buy/Sell (> 7.0 / < 3.0): Indicates full alignment across all three vectors. Represents a "Prime Setup" eligible for standard position sizing.
Buy/Sell (5.0–7.0 / 3.0–5.0): Indicates a valid trend but with moderate volatility confirmation.
Neutral: Signals conflicting data (e.g., Bullish Momentum vs. Bearish Structure). Trading is not recommended ("No-Trade Zone").
C. Statistical Deviation Status (Mean Reversion)
• Logic: Utilizes Bollinger Band deviation principles to quantify how far price has stretched from the statistical mean (20 SMA).
• Alert States:
Over-Extended (> 2.0 SD): Warning that price is statistically likely to revert to the mean (Elastic Snap-back), even if the trend remains technically valid. New entries are discouraged in this zone.
Normal: Price is within standard distribution limits, suitable for trend-following entries.
D. Volatility Regime Classification
• Metric: Compares current ATR against a 100-period historical baseline to categorize the market state.
• Regimes:
Low Volatility (Lvl < 1.0): Market Compression. Often precedes volatility expansion events.
Mid Volatility (Lvl 1.0 - 1.5): Standard operating environment.
High Volatility (Lvl > 1.5): Elevated market stress. Risk parameters should be adjusted (e.g., reduced position size) to account for increased variance.
E. Performance Telemetry
• Function: Displays the historical reliability of the Trend Baseline for the current asset and timeframe.
• Operational Threshold: If the displayed Win Rate falls below 40%, it suggests the current market behavior is incoherent (choppy) and does not respect trend logic. In such cases, switching assets or timeframes is recommended.
Operational Protocols & Signal Decoding
Visual Interpretation Standards
• Laminar Flow (Trade Confirmation): A valid trend is visually confirmed when the 15-layer SMA Ribbon is fully expanded and parallel. This indicates distributed momentum across timeframes.
• Consolidation (No-Trade): If the ribbon appears twisted, knotted, or compressed, the market lacks a unified directional vector.
• Baseline Interaction: The Triple-Smoothed Baseline acts as a dynamic support/resistance filter. Long positions remain valid only while price sustains above this structure.
System Calibration (Settings)
• Adaptive Signal Filtering (Prev. Anti-Greed): Enabled by default. This logic automatically raises the required trend slope threshold following consecutive wins to mitigate behavioral bias.
• Impulse Sensitivity: Controls the reactivity of the Volatility Core. Higher settings capture faster moves but may introduce more noise.

It is designed not to predict the future, but to identify high-probability conditions where kinetic energy and trend structure align.
