Demand Supply Zone AlertsDemand Supply Zone Alert Indicator
This indicator functions as a scanner/screener and is designed to identify symbols with potential demand and supply zones and generate alerts based on your customized settings. It does not visually plot anything on the chart but is used to place alerts.
Key Features:
1. Demand Supply Zone Patterns:
- Drop Base Rally
- Rally Base Rally
- Rally Base Drop
- Drop Base Drop
2. Zoning Methods:
- Wick to Wick: In a demand zone, this method uses the highest high of the basing as the proximal line. For supply zones, it uses the lowest low of the basing.
- Body to Wick: In a demand zone, this method uses the highest body of the basing as the proximal line. For supply zones, it uses the lowest body of the basing.
3. Legin Methods:
- Candle Type: Based on the candle's bullish or bearish structure.
- Candle Color: Uses the candle color to determine the legin, with green indicating a rally and red indicating a drop.
4. Additional Zone Options:
- Follow Through Pattern: Zones with one legout followed by another legout, based on user-defined strength settings.
- Overnight Gap Zones: Zones formed due to overnight gaps after the basing.
- All Demand Supply Zone Structures: Includes all zones, even if they are not considered quality zones.
5. Zone Settings:
- Number of Candles in Basing: Customize the number of candles in the basing phase. For example, setting it to 3 will only identify zones with 3 or fewer basing candles.
- Legout Strength for Single Legout Pattern: Defines how strong a legout candle must be to qualify as a zone.
- Legout Strength for Follow-Through Pattern: Specifies the strength required for two consecutive legout candles to qualify as a follow-through pattern.
Functionality:
The indicator identifies zones based on a three-component structure: legin, basing, and legout. It uses an algorithm that categorizes candles as legin, basing, or legout based on their range compared to the average candle on the chart. Quality zones are defined by legout candles that are significantly larger than the average candle, while basing candles are smaller.
Once a valid zone structure is identified, the indicator will generate an alert from the list of symbols provided in the settings. Alerts will notify users according to their alert notification settings.
Usage Recommendations:
- This indicator works as a real-time scanner or screener to shortlist symbols when a valid zone is formed based on user settings.
- It aids in identifying potential demand and supply zones, but does not provide explicit buy or sell signals.
- Users should integrate this tool with their own trading plan and thoroughly evaluate any identified symbols before making trades.
Limitations:
This indicator does not provide explicit buy or sell signals. It is intended to aid in identifying symbols where demand and supply zones are being created. Users should use this tool in conjunction with their own trade plan and thoroughly evaluate any identified symbols before making any trades.
Disclaimer:
Please ensure you thoroughly evaluate and qualify any identified symbols according to your individual trade plan before making any trades.

ICT Market Structure Screener (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The ICT Market Structure Screener (Zeiierman) is designed to identify and display key market structure levels and patterns based on Smart Money Concepts. It highlights bullish and bearish structures, premium and discount levels, and generates alerts for significant market structure changes, making it a valuable tool for traders looking to understand institutional trading behaviors and market trends. A key feature of this indicator is its screener function, which allows traders to monitor multiple symbols simultaneously. This feature provides a consolidated view of the market structure for various assets, making it easier to identify trading opportunities across a diverse portfolio.
█ How It Works
The ICT Market Structure Screener operates by identifying high and low pivot points within a specified period, then analyzing these pivots to determine changes in market structure. The indicator tracks price movements and categorizes them into bullish or bearish structures, indicating potential trend reversals or continuations. By plotting premium and discount levels, it helps traders identify overbought and oversold conditions. The indicator also provides real-time updates and alerts for significant changes in the market structure.
█ Terminology
ChoCH (Change of Character): Indicates a potential reversal in market direction. It is identified when the price breaks a significant high or low, suggesting a shift from a bullish to bearish trend or vice versa.
SMS (Smart Money Shift): Represents the transition phase in market structure where smart money begins accumulating or distributing assets. It typically follows a BMS and indicates the start of a new trend.
BMS (Bullish/Bearish Market Structure): Confirms the trend direction. Bullish Market Structure (BMS) confirms an uptrend, while Bearish Market Structure (BMS) confirms a downtrend. It is characterized by a series of higher highs and higher lows (bullish) or lower highs and lower lows (bearish).
Premium: A zone where the price is considered overbought. It is calculated as the upper range of the current market structure and indicates a potential area for selling or shorting.
Mid Range: The midpoint between the high and low of the market structure. It often acts as a support or resistance level, helping traders identify potential reversal or continuation points.
Discount: A zone where the price is considered oversold. It is calculated as the lower range of the current market structure and indicates a potential area for buying or going long.
█ How to Use
The ICT Market Structure Screener allows traders to follow smart money moves in the market more effectively. By identifying key market levels and monitoring bullish and bearish structures, traders can easily spot trend changes and strong trends. The indicator's premium and discount levels help identify overbought and oversold conditions, providing valuable entry and exit points. Alerts for ChoCH, SMS, and BMS keep traders informed about significant market changes, enabling real-time adjustments to trading strategies.
The screener functionality is particularly valuable for monitoring multiple markets simultaneously. The screener table displays critical information such as current price, trend direction, signal type, and premium/discount levels for each symbol. This makes it easier to track the market structure of various assets at a glance and quickly identify trading opportunities across different markets.
Example Strategies:
⚪ Trend Following: Use the indicator to identify the current market trend (bullish or bearish) and trade in the direction of the trend. Enter trades on pullbacks to premium (for shorts) or discount (for longs) levels.
⚪ Reversal Trading: Look for ChoCH signals to identify potential trend reversals. Enter trades when the price breaks a significant high or low and confirms a change in market structure, or wait for a retest of the nearest Orderblock that was formed.
⚪ Support and Resistance: Utilize the mid-range, premium, and discount levels as support and resistance zones. Enter trades when the price approaches these levels and shows signs of reversal or continuation.
⚪ Multi-Symbol Analysis: Use the screener table to monitor multiple symbols and quickly assess their market structure. This helps in diversifying trading opportunities and managing a portfolio of assets efficiently.
█ Settings
Period: The pivot period for calculating the structure. Increasing the period captures broader trends, making the structure more representative of long-term movements. Decreasing the period focuses on shorter-term trends, increasing sensitivity.
Response: Enabling this option uses the response period instead of the pivot period, providing more flexibility in capturing short-term or long-term structures. The period for the response, which determines the structure's sensitivity. Increasing the response period smoothens the structure, making it less reactive to short-term fluctuations. Decreasing the response period makes the structure more responsive to short-term changes.
Structure Display: Choose between displaying the active range or the previous range. 'Active Range' shows real-time premium, discount, and mid-range levels based on the current structure. 'Previous Range' displays past ranges, useful for analyzing historical support/resistance levels.
Ticker Symbols: List of symbols to include in the screener. Enabling the option includes the symbol in the screener, allowing the user to track its structure. Disabling it excludes the symbol from the screener, reducing the number of tracked symbols.

Pure Price Action Structures [LuxAlgo]The Pure Price Action Structures indicator is a pure price action analysis tool designed to automatically identify real-time market structures.
The indicator identifies short-term, intermediate-term, and long-term swing highs and lows, forming the foundation for real-time detection of shifts and breaks in market structure.
Its distinctive/unique feature lies in its reliance solely on price patterns, without being limited by any user-defined input, ensuring a robust and objective analysis of market dynamics.
🔶 USAGE
Market structure is a crucial aspect of understanding price action. The script automatically identifies real-time market structure, enabling traders to comprehend market trends more easily. It assists traders in recognizing both trend changes and continuations.
Market structures are constructed from three sets of swing points, short-term swings, intermediary swings, and long-term swings. Market structures associated with longer-term swing points are indicative of longer-term trends.
A market structure shift (MSS), also known as a change of character (CHoCH), is a significant event in price action analysis that may signal a potential shift in market sentiment or direction. Conversely, a break of structure (BOS) is another significant event in price action analysis that typically indicates a continuation of the prevailing trend.
However, it's important to note that while an MSS can be the first indication of a trend reversal and a BOS signifies a continuation of the prevailing trend, they do not guarantee a complete reversal or continuation of the trend.
In some cases, MSS and BOS levels may also act as liquidity zones or areas of price consolidation, rather than indicating a definitive change in market direction or continuation. Traders should approach them with caution and consider additional factors to confirm the validity of the signal before making trading decisions.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Market Structures
Market structures are based on the analysis of price action and aim to identify key levels and patterns in the market, where swing point detection is one of the core concepts within ICT trading methodologies and teachings.
Swing points are automatically detected solely based on market movements, without any reliance on user-defined input.
🔹 Utilizing Swing Points
Swing points are not identified in real time as they occur. While short-term swing points may be displayed with a delay of at most one bar, the identification of intermediate and long-term swing points depends entirely on market movements. Furthermore, detection is not limited by any user-defined input but relies solely on pure price action. Consequently, swing points are not typically utilized in real-time trading scenarios.
Traders often analyze historical swing points to discern market trends and pinpoint potential entry and exit points for their trades. By identifying swing highs and lows, traders can:
Recognize Trends: Swing highs and lows help traders identify the direction of the trend. Higher swing highs and higher swing lows indicate an uptrend, while lower swing highs and lower swing lows indicate a downtrend.
Identify Support and Resistance Levels: Swing highs often serve as resistance levels, known in ICT terminology as Buyside Liquidity Levels, while swing lows function as support levels, also referred to in ICT terminology as Sellside Liquidity Levels. Traders can utilize these levels to strategize entry and exit points for their trades.
Spot Reversal Patterns: Swing points can form various reversal patterns, such as double tops or bottoms, head and shoulders patterns, and triangles. Recognizing these patterns can signal potential trend reversals, allowing traders to adjust their strategies accordingly.
Set Stop Loss and Take Profit Levels: In the context of ICT teachings, swing levels represent specific price levels where a concentration of buy or sell orders is anticipated. Traders can target these liquidity levels/pools to accumulate or distribute their positions, essentially using swing points to establish stop loss and take profit levels for their trades.
Overall, swing points provide valuable information about market dynamics and can assist traders in making more informed trading decisions.

Inversion Fair Value Gaps [TradingFinder] IFVG ICT Signal| Alert🔵 Introduction
🟣 Inversion Fair Value Gap (IFVG)
An ICT Inversion Fair Value Gap, or reverse FVG, occurs when a fair value gap fails to hold its price, resulting in the price moving beyond and breaking the gap. This situation marks the initial change in price momentum.
Generally, prices respect fair value gaps and continue in their trend direction. However, when a fair value gap is breached, it transforms into an inversion fair value gap, signaling a potential short-term reversal or a subsequent change in direction.
🔵 How to Use
🟣 Identifying an Inversion Fair Value Gap
To spot an IFVG, you must first identify a fair value gap.
Inversion fair value gaps can be categorized into two types :
🟣 Bullish Inversion Fair Value Gap
A bullish IFVG occurs when a bearish fair value gap is invalidated by the price closing above it.
Steps to identify it :
Identify a bearish fair value gap.
When the price closes above this gap, it becomes a bullish inversion fair value gap.
This gap acts as a support level, pushing the price upwards and indicating a shift in momentum from sellers to buyers.
🟣 Bearish Inversion Fair Value Gap
A bearish IFVG happens when a bullish fair value gap fails, with the price closing below it.
Steps to identify it :
Identify a bullish fair value gap.
When the price closes below this gap, it becomes a bearish inversion fair value gap.
This gap acts as a resistance level, pushing the price downwards and indicating a shift in momentum from buyers to sellers.
🔵 Settings
🟣 Global Settings
Show All Inversion FVG: If disabled, only the most recent FVG will be displayed.
IFVG Validity Period (Bar): Determines the maximum duration (in number of candles) that the FVG and IFVG remain valid.Switching Colors Theme Mode: Includes three modes: "Off", "Light", and "Dark". "Light" mode adjusts colors for light mode use, "Dark" mode adjusts colors for dark mode use, and "Off" disables color adjustments.
🟣 Logic Settings
FVG Filter : This refines the number of identified FVG areas based on a specified algorithm to focus on higher quality signals and reduce noise.
Types of FVG filters :
Very Aggressive Filter : Adds a condition where, for an upward FVG, the last candle's highest price must exceed the middle candle's highest price, and for a downward FVG, the last candle's lowest price must be lower than the middle candle's lowest price. This minimally filters out FVGs.
Aggressive Filte r: Builds on the Very Aggressive mode by ensuring the middle candle is not too small, filtering out more FVGs.
Defensive Filter : Adds criteria regarding the size and structure of the middle candle, requiring it to have a substantial body and specific polarity conditions, filtering out a significant number of FVGs.
Very Defensive Filter : Further refines filtering by ensuring the first and third candles are not small-bodied doji candles, retaining only the highest quality signals.
Mitigation Level FVG and IFVG : Options include "Proximal", "Distal", or "50 % OB" modes, which you can choose based on your needs. The "50 % OB" line is the midpoint between distal and proximal.

ICT Propulsion Block [LuxAlgo]The ICT Propulsion Block indicator is meant to detect and highlight propulsion blocks, which are specific price structures introduced by the Inner Circle Trader (ICT).
Propulsion Blocks are essentially blocks located where prices interact with preceding order blocks. Traders often utilize them when analyzing price movements to identify potential turning points and market behavior or areas of interest in the market.
🔶 USAGE
An order block is a significant area on a price chart where there was a notable accumulation or distribution of orders, often identified by a strong move in price followed by a consolidation or sideways movement. Traders use order blocks to identify potential support or resistance levels.
A Propulsion Block, on the other hand, is a concept taught by the Inner Circle Trader (ICT) and refers to a specific type of order block that interacts with the preceding order block. Traders often analyze propulsion blocks to identify potential turning points and areas of interest in the market.
A mitigated order block refers to an order block that has been invalidated or nullified due to subsequent market movements or developments. It no longer holds the same significance or relevance in the current market context.
Let's explore a bearish order block and propulsion block scenario commonly utilized by ICT traders in their trading strategies.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Order & Propulsion Blocks
Swing Detection Length: Lookback period used to detect swing points for creating order blocks and/or propulsion blocks.

GL Gann Swing IndicatorIntroduction
The GL Gann Swing Indicator is a versatile tool designed to help traders identify market trends, support and resistance areas, and potential reversals. This indicator applies the principles of Gann Swing Charts, a technique developed by W.D. Gann, which focuses on market swings to determine the overall direction and turning points of price action. Gann Swing Charts are a time-tested method of technical analysis that simplifies price action by focusing on significant highs and lows, thereby eliminating market noise and providing a clearer view of the trend.
By analyzing price action and determining swing directions and turning points, the indicator filters out market noise using four distinct bar types:
Up Bar: Higher High, Higher Low
Down Bar: Lower High, Lower Low
Inside Bar: Lower High, Higher Low
Outside Bar: Higher High, Lower Low
This approach helps traders to:
Identify the primary trend direction.
Determine key support and resistance levels.
Recognize potential reversal points.
Filter out minor price fluctuations that do not affect the overall trend.
Features
Bar Types: Display bar types by checking the Show Bar Type box in the indicator's settings. Up bars appear as green upward-pointing triangles, down bars as red downward-pointing triangles, inside bars as grey circles, and outside bars as blue diamonds. These visual aids help traders quickly identify the type of bar and its significance.
Break Lines: These lines highlight when the price rises above a previous swing high or falls below a prior swing low. Green lines indicate breaks of swing highs, while red lines indicate breaks of swing lows. Break lines are enabled by default but can be turned off in the indicator's settings. Break lines provide visual confirmation of trend continuation or reversal.
Bar Count: Bar counts help determine if a swing is overextended and if a reversal is likely. This feature is off by default but can be enabled in the indicator's settings. Users can set a minimum bar count to focus on significant swings. Analyzing the number of bars in a swing can help traders gauge the strength and potential exhaustion of a trend.
Swing MA (Moving Averages): This feature plots the average of a user-defined number of previous swing highs and lows. Options are available to add two moving averages, allowing for both fast and slow averages. Swing MAs can be enabled in the indicator's settings. These moving averages smooth out the price data, making it easier to identify the underlying trend direction.
Why This Indicator is Useful
The GL Gann Swing Indicator is particularly useful for several reasons:
Trend Identification: By focusing on significant price swings, the indicator helps traders identify the primary trend direction, making it easier to align trades with the overall market movement.
Noise Reduction: The indicator filters out minor price fluctuations, allowing traders to focus on meaningful market movements and avoid being misled by short-term volatility.
Support and Resistance Levels: By highlighting key swing highs and lows, the indicator helps traders identify crucial support and resistance levels, which are essential for making informed trading decisions.
Potential Reversals: The indicator's ability to identify overextended swings and potential reversal points can help traders anticipate market turning points and adjust their strategies accordingly.
Customizability: With options to display bar types, break lines, bar counts, and swing moving averages, traders can customize the indicator to suit their specific trading style and preferences.
By incorporating Gann Swing principles, the GL Gann Swing Indicator offers traders a powerful tool to enhance their technical analysis, improve their trading decisions, and ultimately achieve better trading outcomes.
Heiken Ashi Ribbon [UkutaLabs]█ OVERVIEW
The Heiken Ashi Ribbon is a powerful trading tool that creates a strong ribbon that indicates market strength. This ribbon is created using four moving averages that use Heiken Ashi values (high, low, open and close) as its input values.
The ribbon will also be colored green, red or grey depending on whether or not its direction aligns with current market strength.
█ USAGE
The Heiken Ashi Ribbon is created using a series of four moving averages that uses values from the Heiken Ashi bars as its inputs. The user has the ability to select whether the moving averages are EMAs or SMAs, as well as the ability to control the period of the moving averages.
If the moving average calculated using the Heiken Ashi Open is below the moving average calculated using the Heiken Ashi Close, the ribbon will be colored green, indicating a bullish trend. If the moving average calculated using the Heiken Ashi Open is above the moving average calculated using the Heiken Ashi Open, the ribbon will be colored red, indicating a bearish trend.
This indicator also uses a series of hidden EMAs to determine market strength. If these EMAs do not align with the direction of the Heiken Ashi Ribbon, the Ribbon will instead be colored grey, indicating uncertainty in the market, as well as a possible reversal.
█ SETTINGS
Configuration
• Moving Average Type: Determines whether or not the Heiken Ashi Moving Averages will be drawn as EMAs or SMAs.
• Moving Average Period: Determines the period of the Heiken Ashi Moving Averages.
Moving Average
• Moving Average Input: Determines the input values for the hidden EMAs.
Candle Body Support/Resistance [LuxAlgo]The Candle Body Support/Resistance indicator is a tool that provides Support/Resistance levels from high-volatility candles, a concept originally described by Steve Nison in "Beyond Candlesticks".
Users can define the candle body percentage used to set the detected support/resistance levels. Occurrences of price testing the returned levels are highlighted using user-customizable dots.
🔶 USAGE
Support/Resistance levels are drawn from volatile candles, that is candles having a body (range between opening and closing price) whose magnitude is larger than the Volatility Threshold , which is determined by the multiplicative factor of an ATR (Average True Range) using a user set length.
The level starts from the opening price +/- a percentage of the open-close range. Users can adjust the percentage of the candle body used as support/resistance levels respectively, with higher percentage values returning levels prone to get reached sooner by the price.
A test is considered valid when a wick passes through the Support/Resistance level while the closing price is not breaking it.
Two modes are included, Trailing and Historical , both affecting the displayed elements of the indicator, these are described in the sub-section below.
🔹 Historical
The Historical Mode will draw a separate line from every Volatile Candle . When this line is tested, a dot will be drawn.
In the above example, the red resistance line was tested once until a bullish volatile candle formed, which closed just below the resistance level. The resistance level was tested again, after which the newly created support level was broken quickly, and the price decreased. These levels proved helpful later, acting as resistance/support levels (illustrated by the extra manually drawn dashed white lines).
To prevent cluttering Support/Resistance , lines will be deleted when the line is mitigated and hasn't been tested.
When a Support/Resistance line reaches its Maximum Line Length , it will also be deleted when it has not been tested.
🔹 Trailing
When a new volatile candle of the same type (bullish/bearish) appears while the Support/Resistance isn't broken, this line will be updated with the values of the new volatile candle. This creates a trailing line and a less cluttered chart.
Unlike the Historical mode , a line will not be deleted after a while or when it is mitigated. Instead, the line won't be updated anymore. A new line will start from the next found volatile candle.
Using the same situation as the Historical Mode example, we can note the future significance of old support/resistance levels (illustrated by the extra manually drawn dashed white lines).
The user can switch between these 2 modes, each offering a unique perspective on the market. This provides a more in-depth examination of the market, enhancing the user's trading analysis.
Using a copy of our indicator while using both modes can also be helpful.
🔶 DETAILS
The Support level is the opening price of a bullish volatile candle plus a user-set percentage of the candle's body, while the Resistance level is the opening price of a bearish volatile candle minus a percentage of the candle's body.
The following example illustrates the ATR with the multiplicative factor (Volatility Threshold) where the body of Volatile candles exceeds the ATR limits. Changing the Volatility Threshold and ATR length gives users extra flexibility to adjust to their needs.
🔹 Max Line Length
When using the Historical Mode and the duration of a displayed level reaches the user-set Max Line Length value, the level will return to the last test or be deleted when it has not been tested.
🔶 SETTINGS
Display Mode: Display mode of the indicator.
Support %: Sets the distance of the Support Line from the opening price relative to the candle body.
Resistance %: Sets the distance of the Resistance Line from the opening price relative to the candle body.
🔹 Filter
Length ATR: Amount of bars for the calculation of the Average True Range.
Volatility Threshold: multiplicative factor of ATR.
Max Line Length: Maximum allowed duration/length (in bars) of a Support/Resistance level.
Spiral Levels [ChartPrime]SPIRAL LEVELS
⯁ OVERVIEW
The Spiral Levels [ ChartPrime ] indicator, designed for use on TradingView and developed with Pine Script™ , leveraging a combination of traditional pivot points and spiral geometry to visualize support and resistance levels on the chart. By plotting spirals from pivot points, the indicator provides a distinctive perspective on potential price movements.
It's an experiment inspired from spirals in the Pine documentation and the concept of using spirals to add padding/offsets to SR zones in a market (an idea we plan to expand on in the future).
◆ USAGE
● Identifying Pivot Points: The indicator identifies significant pivot highs and lows based on user-defined criteria.
● Filtered Pivot Points: Pivot points for spirals are filtered using volume and high/low thresholds to ensure they are significant.
● Spiral Visualization: Spirals are plotted from these pivots, indicating potential future support and resistance levels or as liquidity zones.
Additionally, the plotted levels can serve as liquidity zones where the price might attempt to grab liquidity, providing a deeper understanding of market behavior at significant volume levels.
● Volume-Based Coloring: Spirals are colored based on volume data, providing additional context about the strength of the price movement.
● Labeling and Line Extensions: Labels display volume information, and lines extend from the end of the spirals to the current bar for clarity.
● Spiral Rotation: By adjusting the "Number of spiral rotations" input, you can control the number of rotations each spiral makes around a pivot point, offering more detailed insights. This also allows you to control the distance of levels from a pivot. More rotations will extend the spiral further from the pivot point, potentially identifying support and resistance levels or liquidity zones at greater distances.
This modification emphasizes that the number of rotations not only provides more detailed insights but also affects the spatial distribution of the identified levels relative to the pivot point.
⯁ USER INPUTS
● Pivots
Left Bars: Determines the number of bars to the left of the pivot.
Right Bars: Determines the number of bars to the right of the pivot.
● Filter

X Scale: Adjusts the horizontal scale of the spirals.
Y Scale: Adjusts the vertical scale of the spirals, relative to the ATR(200).
Reverse Spirals: Option to reverse the direction of the spirals.
⯁ TECHNICAL NOTES
The indicator uses Pine Script's polyline feature for smooth spiral rendering.
It implements a custom cross detection function to manage line and label visibility.
The script is optimized to limit calculations to the last 1000 bars for performance.
It automatically manages the number of displayed elements to prevent clutter and ensure smooth performance.
The Spiral Levels ChartPrime indicator offers a unique and visually engaging method to identify potential support and resistance levels. By integrating volume data and pivot points with spiral geometry, traders can gain valuable insights into market dynamics and make more informed trading decisions.
Lines of Chaos (ATR/ADR Levels)Lines of Chaos Indicator
This script is designed to provide traders with ATR (Average True Range) and ADR (Average Daily Range) support and resistance levels.
How it Works:
Support and Resistance Lines: The script plots ATR/ADR-based support and resistance lines based on a moving average of the last ATR/ADR Length days, the previous day's close, and the current day's open. Changing the ATR/ADR Length value changes the number of days of data to average.
EMA: The EMA is colored red when the ticker is potentially bearish. The EMA is colored green when the ticker is potentially bullish. Changing the EMA Length changes the number of data bars to average.
Default Settings: The default settings are optimized for most trading environments.
Key Features:
ATR & ADR Calculation: You can use ATR, ADR, or both. ATR is recommended for most scenarios.
Customizable Lengths: Adjust the ATR/ADR Length to refine the average calculation to your preference, with 14 being the standard value.
EMA for Market Bias: The EMA helps determine the ticker bias. It is colored green when the market is above the average price and red when below. This allows you to more easily determine whether or not the ADR/ATR levels are valid.
Versatile Usage: Suitable for various trading types, ensuring broad applicability across different market conditions.
How to Use:
Bounces off Levels: When the price bounces off a support/resistance level, the price will likely respect this level. This indicates that the price is unlikely to exceed the ticker's average volatility.
Breakthroughs of Levels: When the price breaks through a support/resistance level, the price will likely continue beyond this level. This indicates that the price has moved beyond that ticker's average volatility.
ATR/ADR Support and Resistance LevelsATR/ADR Support and Resistance Levels Indicator

How to Use:
ATR vs ADR: You should use ADR if you are day trading AND do not want to include gap data in the levels. It is recommended you use ATR.
Bounces off Levels: When price bounces off of a support/resistance level, it is very likely that price will respect this level. This indicates that price is unlikely to move beyond the ticker's average volatility. You should wait for an additional bounce to confirm.
Breakthroughs of Levels: When price breaks through a support/resistance level, it is very likely that price will continue beyond this level. This indicates that price has moved beyond that ticker's average volatility. You should wait for a bounce off the level to confirm.
This indicator is a valuable tool for traders seeking to enhance their technical analysis with support and resistance levels based on ATR and ADR calculations. It is perfect for identifying key price points and understanding market trends.

Day trading volume based levels by VhatkarThis script identifies dynamic support and resistance levels based on volume and price action analysis. It uses a unique algorithm that combines volume force calculations with pivot points to determine key levels where price is likely to react.
Originality and Usefulness :
Innovative Volume Force Calculation : The script calculates upforce and downforce based on volume and price movement, providing a novel insight into buying and selling pressure. Unlike traditional volume indicators, this approach offers a more nuanced understanding of market dynamics.
Dynamic Pivot Points : Pivot points are dynamically adjusted based on volume force and highest high calculations, unlike conventional static pivot points. This makes the levels more responsive to real-time market conditions, offering traders a competitive edge.
Adaptive Target Levels : The script sets target and stop prices for both long and short positions, with adjustable percentages based on the chosen timeframe. This feature is particularly useful for day traders looking for precise entry and exit points.
Unique Timeframe Adjustments : The script includes specific adjustments for different timeframes (e.g., 15m, 30m, 60m), optimizing the support and resistance levels for day trading strategies. This adaptability is not commonly found in existing open-source scripts.
Volume-Weighted Adjustments : The integration of VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price) into the volume force calculation adds an extra layer of accuracy, helping traders make more informed decisions.
Comprehensive Visual Representation : The script offers clear visual plots of entry, target, and stop levels, along with color-coded fill areas that indicate different target zones. This visual clarity enhances user experience and decision-making.
Unique Features Compared to Open-Source Scripts :
Advanced Volume Force Algorithm : While many open-source scripts rely solely on price action or basic volume indicators, this script integrates a sophisticated volume force algorithm. This unique approach allows traders to identify more accurate support and resistance levels based on real market activity.
Dynamic and Adaptive Pivot Points : Unlike traditional open-source scripts that use static pivot points, this script dynamically adjusts pivot points based on the highest high and volume force. This dynamic adjustment provides a more precise and adaptable analysis suitable for various market conditions.
Integrated VWAP Calculation : Incorporating VWAP into volume force calculations adds an extra dimension of accuracy, allowing for more reliable trading signals. This feature differentiates the script from simpler open-source alternatives that may not include such advanced calculations.
How to Use :
Apply the Script : Add the "Vhatkar Dynamic S/R Levels" script to your chart. Make sure your chart has volume data as the script relies on volume calculations.
Select Timeframe : The script is designed for day trading timeframes such as 5m, 15m, and 30m. Ensure you are using one of these timeframes for optimal performance.
Adjust Parameters :
Target Lines : Set the number of target lines using the SLRange input. Increase the count if fewer lines are visible or decrease if too many lines are cluttering the chart.
Interpreting Signals :
Long Entries : When the close price is above the pivot point, the script plots potential long entry points and target levels (TP1, TP2, TP3) as well as a stop-loss level.
Short Entries : When the close price is below the pivot point, the script plots potential short entry points and target levels (TP1, TP2, TP3) as well as a stop-loss level.
Visual Aids : Use the color-coded fill areas to quickly identify target zones and stop levels.
Trade Management : Utilize the plotted entry, target, and stop levels to manage your trades. Adjust your trading strategy based on the levels provided by the script.
Usage :
Designed for day trading on timeframes such as 5m, 15m, and 30m.
Provides clear visual plots of entry, target, and stop levels.
Offers flexibility with adjustable parameters to suit different trading styles.
RSI Trail [UAlgo]The RSI Trail indicator is a technical analysis tool designed to assist traders in making informed decisions by utilizing the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and various moving average calculations. This indicator dynamically plots support and resistance levels based on RSI values, providing visual cues for potential bullish and bearish signals. The inclusion of a trailing stop mechanism allows traders to adapt to market volatility, ensuring optimal entry and exit points.
🔶 Key Features
Multiple Moving Average Types: Choose from Simple Moving Average (SMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), Weighted Moving Average (WMA), Running Moving Average (RMA), and McGinley Dynamic for diverse analytical approaches.
Configurable RSI Bounds: Tailor the RSI lower and upper bounds to your specific trading preferences, with default settings at 40 and 60.
Signals: The indicator determines bullish and bearish market states and plots corresponding signals on the chart.
Customizable Visualization: Options to display the midline and color candles based on market state enhance visual analysis.
Alerts: Integrated alert conditions notify you of bullish and bearish signals.
🔶 Calculations
The RSI Trail indicator calculates dynamic support and resistance levels using a combination of moving averages and the Relative Strength Index (RSI). It starts by computing a chosen moving average (SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, or McGinley) over a period of 27 using the typical price (ohlc4).
The indicator then defines upper and lower bounds based on customizable RSI levels (default 40 and 60) and adjusts these bounds using the Average True Range (ATR) to account for market volatility. The upper bound is calculated by adding a volatility-adjusted value to the moving average, while the lower bound is found by subtracting this value. Bullish signals occur when the price crosses above the upper bound, and bearish signals when it falls below the lower bound.
The RSI Trail indicator also can be used to identify pullback opportunities. When the price high/low crosses above/below the calculated upper/lower bound, it indicates a potential pullback, suggesting a favorable point to enter a trade during a pullback.

Advanced Order Blocks by AccountantXThe "Advanced Order Blocks by AccountantX" is tool designed to identify and visualize significant order blocks in the market.
This script goes beyond traditional order block detection by integrating advanced features such as volume threshold filtering, ATR-based sizing, and higher timeframe considerations.
How It works:
A. General data :
- Order Block Detection: Identifies bullish and bearish order blocks based on swing highs and lows, with options to filter by volume thresholds to ensure significant levels.
- Volume Threshold: Only displays order blocks where the volume exceeds a user-defined threshold, ensuring the highlighted zones are of particular significance.
- ATR-Based Sizing: Offers the option to use the Average True Range (ATR) for sizing order blocks, allowing for dynamic adjustment based on market volatility.
- Higher Timeframe Integration: Includes the ability to display order blocks from a higher timeframe, providing a broader market perspective.
- Customizable Appearance: Users can customize the colors and transparency of the order blocks, ensuring they fit seamlessly with any chart setup.
B. Code explanation :
- The script allows you to set a minimum volume threshold. Order blocks are only shown if the volume during their formation exceeds this threshold, ensuring that only significant price levels are highlighted.
- When enabled, the ATR (Average True Range) is used to size the order blocks. This means the height of the blocks adjusts dynamically with market volatility, providing a more accurate representation of significant zones.
- The script can display order blocks from a higher timeframe on your current chart. This is useful for aligning shorter-term trading decisions with broader market trends.
C. How to Use:
a) Set the volume threshold to filter out less significant order blocks. Adjust the value according to the typical volume of your trading instrument;
b) Enable the ATR-based sizing and set the period and multiplier to match your trading style. This helps in identifying order blocks relative to market volatility;
c) Choose a higher timeframe if you want to see significant order blocks from a broader market perspective. This can help in making more informed trading decisions.

ICT Opening Range GapOpening Range Gap
The Opening Range Gap, also known as the Regular Trading Hours (RTH) Gap, is the distance between the first opening tick of a session and the previous session's close, when looking at a chart's Regular Trading Hours (not to be confused with Electronic Trading Hours). This gap is an important element for Futures Market traders that follow the works of The Inner Circle Trader (ICT). To be more specific, the Opening Range Gap occurs between 4:15pm and 9:30am of the next day.
The Opening Range Gap can be viewed easily when switching the session type to "Regular trading hours".
The image above shows an example of an RTH Gap for Wednesday, June 12, 2024 in CME_MINI:ES1!
How To Use Opening Range Gap
The Opening Range Gap can be used like any other form of a gap by extending it into future price action and looking for it to be filled on the same day or the upcoming days.
Looking for 50% of the gap to be filled as an initial target is one of the methodologies taught by ICT. Additionally, the high and low of the gap (as well as the midpoint) can be used as points of dynamic support & resistance, even if the gap is already filled. Therefore, these gaps do not "expire", and they can be used as key price levels extended through to the end of the week.
Disclaimer
This indicator is mainly intended to work for Futures markets, and specifically the following Index Futures markets: E-mini S&P 500 Futures, E-mini NASDAQ-100 Futures, E-mini DOW Futures.
Given that, the indicator still supports various other markets/assets out-of-the-box, such as other types of Futures Markets, Stocks, Options, and more. The main difference will be that other markets may have RTH Gaps forming at different times, rather than the 4:15pm-9:30am gap that occurs in the Index Futures (Regular trading hours).
Indicator Purpose
While RTH Gaps can be labeled by hand, this indicator allows you to quickly plot multiple RTH Gaps and get a quick glimpse at potential gaps that you may have missed, which could end up being useful in your analysis.
This indicator is 100% custom-built, not using code from any other existing indicators that may plot Opening Range Gaps. The main purpose of this indicator was to overcome many shortcomings from other existing indicators, most notably the problem of displaying RTH Gaps while using ETH as the chart session.
Therefore, this indicator has many UNIQUE features, such as:
Ability to maintain accuracy of the closing/opening prices even when changing chart settings (e.g., toggling ETH/RTH sessions, toggling BACK-ADJUSTMENT on futures contracts, toggling SETTLEMENT prices, etc.).
Draw up to 25 previous Opening Range Gaps, even on ultra-low timeframes like the 1-minute or 1-second chart.
Automatically or manually choose which Opening Range Gaps to hide/show on the chart.
Highly customizable, including a different color scheme to easily distinguish between the Current and Previous RTH Gaps.
Modified price values to correctly display prices that use a format like 109'32 (e.g., Bond Futures or Wheat Futures).
Helpful tooltips to provide more detailed information about the RTH Gaps or about the current Input Settings.
Error Messages
There are some conditions which can cause the script to fail and display an error message (by clicking the red exclamation mark next to the indicator.)
Error messages:
Use a Standard Chart Type : this will occur when using a non-standard chart such as Heikin Ashi, Renko, Point & Figure, etc.
Use a Daily or Lower Timeframe : this error will appear when using a higher timeframe chart like weekly or monthly, because it can clutter the chart since RTH Gaps can form every day.
RTH Gap was not detected : this means that no RTH gap was found, which will occur on markets that don't have the option to toggle between ETH and RTH sessions (e.g., Forex or Crypto).
Exceeded the maximum lookback for Bar Replay mode : when using bar replay mode; this can depend on the amount of historical bars available in different account subscription types.
Unable to Activate Bar Replay mode : if the indicator could not be used in Bar Replay mode.
Restart Bar Replay : if the indicator works in Bar Replay but it detected an error that would cause RTH Gaps to be plotted incorrectly.
This is an example of what a script error would look like.
Indicator Settings
Most settings are self-explanatory or have a tooltip with information on what the setting does, but this section will only briefly cover the available settings.
Extend to End of Day : This setting is enabled by default. It will extend each RTH Gap only up to the end of its day (specifically, to the RTH close of the day). The option can be toggled OFF to automatically extend all RTH Gaps to the right-most candle on the chart.
Previous RTH Gaps : Between 1 and 25 previous RTH Gaps can be displayed. The checkbox can be toggled to quickly hide all previous RTH Gaps (but the same effect would be reached by setting the value to 0).
Hide Current RTH Gap : The Current RTH Gap (most recent one), can be optionally hidden from being plotted.
Beginning Anchor Point : Choose the beginning anchor point for all RTH Gaps. The default is "RTH Close", which means that each gap will be drawn on the chart starting from their previous session's RTH close @ 4:15pm. But it will be a more transparent version of the actual gap; this ghost-like image will extend from 4:15pm all the way up to 9:30am where the gap will then be drawn normally from 9:30am onwards. The other option for this setting is "RTH Open" which means that the gap will be drawn starting from the actual 9:30am opening.
Current RTH Gap Style
These settings are used to customize the visual style of the most recent RTH Gap (also known as the "Current" RTH Gap). Note: the exact same set of settings are available for the Previous RTH Gaps. The text label next to each gap can be optionally hidden to clean the chart a little.
Price Table
These are settings to customize the appearance of the Price Table on the right, including the ability to hide it completely. Note: to actually use the color configurations, you must select "Custom Style" in one of the dropdowns, otherwise it will use "Default Style" which means that the Price Table is automatically styled based on the colors chosen in the Current RTH Gap Style and Previous RTH Gap Style settings.
Overlap Handling
One of 7 available overlap handling options can be used to filter which RTH Gaps are plotted on the chart. By default, the "None" option will be selected, meaning that all valid RTH Gaps are plotted on the chart.
Formatting
Date Format : select the format of the date that is shown next to each RTH Gaps.
Timezone : choose the timezone for the RTH Gap closing/opening date-times that are displayed (only in tooltips when you hover over an RTH Gap label).
RTH Gap Label : choose the details to display next to each gap (e.g., date, or gap number, or both).
Price Format : only two options: Auto/Decimal. "Auto" uses custom processing to allow displaying values such as 109'32 for Bond futures.
Tooltips
The indicator provides additional details about an RTH Gap when you hover over a row in the Price Table.
Note: the same information can be found by hovering over the Text Label that is to the right of each RTH Gap (even when the Text Label is disabled via the Settings).
Overlap Handling
The tooltip next to "Select a Strategy" in the options will provide details on each overlap handling strategy. Additionally, when a strategy is selected, a new row in the Price Table will appear; hovering over that will show details about the currently selected strategy, as well as any suggestions in case the inputs were invalid. When a strategy hides an RTH Gap, the number in the Price Table will be replaced with an "Eye" icon, indicating that it is not currently plotted on the chart.
Available strategies are:
Option 1 (Gradients) : select the percentage opacity to shade RTH Gaps in. The more recent RTH Gaps will be closer to the maximum opacity defined, while the older RTH Gaps will appear more transparent, closer to the minimum opacity defined. Note: only affects previous RTH Gaps, not the current RTH Gap.
Option 2 (Day Extension) : select the number of days to extend each RTH Gap up to. Note: this will override the "Extend to End of Day" setting, regardless whether it is toggled ON or OFF.
Option 3 (Nested Gaps) : hides nested gaps, i.e., RTH Gaps that are enclosed within another RTH Gap. Note: this option is only available when the "Extend to End of Day" setting is disabled .
Option 4 (Intersecting Gaps) : hides intersecting/overlapping gaps, i.e., RTH Gaps that overlap one another (this may also include, but is not limited to, nested gaps). The drop-down next to this option allows choosing the priority of which RTH Gaps to hide first. Note: this option is only available when the "Extend to End of Day" setting is disabled .
Option 5 (Gap Width) : the chart will only show RTH Gaps that have a width/size between the defined parameters.
Option 6 (Close Proximity) : the chart will only show the RTH Gaps that are within a certain range from the market price. This can be useful when plotting multiple RTH Gaps while using auto-scaling on the chart. By only showing nearby RTH Gaps, it will prevent the auto-scaling from having to compress the candles to fit the far-away RTH Gaps onto the screen.
Option 7 (CSV) : this option is used if none of the others suit you well; it allows specifically choosing which RTH Gaps to hide or show on the chart.
This is an example that chooses the Overlap Handling Strategy Option 6. Note that in this example, the tooltip in the price table shows a warning that the Input Number should be increased to plot some RTH Gaps on the chart.
Tips
Chart settings can be toggled to "Scale price chart only" to prevent the auto-scaling of TradingView from compressing the chart if there are RTH Gaps that are far away from the current market action.
If you change a lot of indicator settings such as RTH Gap color schemes, you can save the settings as the Default to prevent your settings from resetting the next time you use the indicator.

ICT Single Candle Order Block (SCOB) [UAlgo]The "ICT Single Candle Order Block (SCOB) " designed for traders who utilize the concept of Order Blocks in their trading strategy. Order Blocks are significant price levels where institutions or smart money have placed their trades, leading to potential future price reactions when these levels are revisited. This indicator focuses on identifying and highlighting Single Candle Order Blocks (SCOBs), allowing traders to visually analyze key price levels on their charts.
🔶 What is Single Candle Order Block (SCOB) ?
A Single Candle Order Block (SCOB) is a specific type of Order Block that is identified based on a single candlestick pattern. These patterns indicate potential areas where significant buying or selling interest has occurred, often leading to a notable price reaction when revisited. In the context of this indicator, a bullish SCOB is identified when a specific bullish candlestick pattern is met, and a bearish SCOB is identified based on a bearish candlestick pattern.
Bullish SCOB: Detected when the open price of two bars ago is higher than its close, the close price of the previous bar is higher than its open, the current close price is higher than the open, the low of the previous bar is lower than the low of two bars ago, and the current close is higher than the high of the previous bar.
Bearish SCOB: Detected when the open price of two bars ago is lower than its close, the close price of the previous bar is lower than its open, the current close price is lower than the open, the high of the previous bar is higher than the high of two bars ago, and the current close is lower than the low of the previous bar.
🔶 Key Features
Show Single Candle Order Block (SCOB): Toggle the visibility of the Single Candle Order Blocks on the chart.
Mitigation Method: Choose between "Close" and "Wick" methods for determining whether a SCOB has been mitigated (price has interacted with the block).
Show Last X SCOBs: Control the number of most recent SCOBs displayed on the chart, allowing you to focus on the most relevant price levels.
Volatility Filter: Enable or disable the volatility filter, which uses the Average True Range (ATR) to filter out less significant SCOBs. When enabled, only SCOBs with an ATR above the mean value of the ATR are displayed.
Customizable Colors: Configure the colors for bullish and bearish SCOBs to enhance visual clarity. The indicator uses cooler RGB values to ensure the blocks are distinct and easily noticeable.
🔶 Disclaimer
The "ICT Single Candle Order Block (SCOB) " indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only. Trading involves significant risk and may not be suitable for all investors.
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Users should use this indicator in conjunction with their own research and trading strategy.
ICT New Day Opening GapNew Day Opening Gap
The New Day Opening Gap (NDOG) is defined by The Inner Circle Trader (ICT) as the separation in time/price that is caused by the 1-hour break that occurs each day in the futures market. The opening price of the gap is the very first tick that occurs at the 6:00pm restart; then we look at the 5:00pm closing price of the previous session. This New Day Opening Gap forms every day from Monday to Friday, but it does not include the gap between Friday's close and Sunday's open (because that is instead referred to as a New Week Opening Gap).
This is an example of a New Day Opening Gap (NDOG) for Wednesday, May 22, 2024 in CME_MINI:ES1!
How To Use NDOG
When an NDOG forms, it can be extended into future price action. One way to use these gaps is to look for it to be filled in by price action. Another usage for these gaps is to look for support & resistance to come in at the high and low of these NDOGs (as well as the midpoint).
Disclaimer
This indicator is mainly intended to work for Futures markets, and specifically the following Index Futures markets: E-mini S&P 500 Futures, E-mini NASDAQ-100 Futures, E-mini DOW Futures.
Given that, the indicator still supports various other markets/assets out-of-the-box, such as other types of Futures Markets, Forex markets, Stocks, Options, and more. The main difference will be that other markets may have NDOGs forming at different times, rather than the 5pm-6pm gap that occurs in the Index Futures.
Indicator Features
This indicator is 100% custom-built, not using code from any other existing NDOG plotting indicators. The purpose of this indicator was to overcome many shortcomings from other existing indicators. Therefore, this indicator has many UNIQUE features, such as:

NDOG was not detected : this means that no NDOG was found, for example if the chart did not have enough bars/candles (e.g., some Options markets).
Exceeded the maximum lookback for Bar Replay mode : when using bar replay mode; this can depend on the amount of historical bars available in different account subscription types.
Unable to Activate Bar Replay mode : if the indicator could not be used in Bar Replay mode.
Restart Bar Replay : if the indicator works in Bar Replay but it detected an error that would cause NDOGs to be plotted incorrectly.
NDOG was not detected. Toggle "Error Handling" Option at your own discretion : this is more of a warning message that will appear when the indicator does not detect any actual gap between the days (e.g., Forex markets where it is continuously traded through each day, without any gap forming in between). But the warning can be dismissed by toggling the checkbox at the bottom of the Indicator's Input Settings.
This is an example of what a script error would look like.
Indicator Settings
Most settings are self-explanatory or have a tooltip with information on what the setting does, so this section will only briefly cover the available settings.
The "Extend to End of Week" option is enabled by default, which will extend each NDOG only up to the end of the week that it belongs to. This option can be toggled OFF to automatically extend all NDOGs to the right-most candle on the chart.
Previous NDOGs: Between 1 and 25 previous NDOGs can be displayed. The checkbox can be toggled to quickly hide all previous NDOGs (but the same effect would be reached by setting the value to 0).
Hide Current NDOG: the current NDOG (colored in Green in the example above), can be optionally hidden from being plotted.
These settings are used to customize the visual style of the most recent NDOG (also known as the "Current" NDOG). Note: the exact same set of settings are available for the Previous NDOGs. The text next to each NDOG can be optionally hidden to clean the chart a little.

Price Format : only two options: Auto/Decimal. "Auto" uses custom processing to allow displaying values such as 109'32 for Bond futures.
This option can be toggled to allow displaying NDOGs for markets that may not have an actual gap between days, such as Forex markets, or BTC/USD (which is traded 24/7). Note: this option must be used at your own discretion because the opening/closing times for the NDOGs are not guaranteed to be accurate.
Tooltips
The indicator provides additional details about an NDOG when you hover over a row in the Price Table.
Note: the same information can be found by hovering over the Text Label that is to the right of each NDOG.
Overlap Handling
The tooltip next to "Select a Strategy" in the options will provide details on each overlap handling strategy. Additionally, when a strategy is selected, a new row in the Price Table will appear; hovering over that will show details about the currently selected strategy, as well as any suggestions in case the inputs were invalid. When a strategy hides an NDOG, the number in the Price Table will be replaced with an "Eye" icon, indicating that it is not currently plotted on the chart.
Available strategies are:
Option 1 (Gradients) : select the percentage opacity to shade NDOGs in. The more recent NDOGs will be closer to the maximum opacity defined, while the older NDOGs will appear more transparent, closer to the minimum opacity defined. Note: only affects previous NDOGs, not the current NDOG.
Option 2 (Week Extension) : select the number of weeks to extend each NDOG up to. Note: this will override the "Extend to End of Week" setting, regardless whether it is toggled ON or OFF.
Option 3 (Nested Gaps) : hides nested gaps, i.e., NDOGs that are enclosed within another NDOG. Note: this option is only available when the "Extend to End of Week" setting is disabled .
Option 4 (Intersecting Gaps) : hides intersecting/overlapping gaps, i.e., NDOGs that overlap one another (this may also include, but is not limited to, nested gaps). The drop-down next to this option allows choosing the priority of which NDOGs to hide first. Note: this option is only available when the "Extend to End of Week" setting is disabled .
Option 5 (Gap Width) : the chart will only show NDOGs that have a width between the defined parameters. This can be useful to filter out NDOGs that are deemed "insignificant". For example, the Inner Circle Trader will generally filter out of his analysis any NDOGs that are less than a point (4 ticks) for Index futures.
Option 6 (Close Proximity) : the chart will only show the NDOGs that are within a certain range from the market price. This can be useful when plotting multiple NDOGs while using auto-scaling on the chart. By only showing nearby NDOGs, it will prevent the auto-scaling from having to compress the candles to fit the far-away NDOGs onto the screen.
Option 7 (CSV) : this option is used if none of the others suit you well; it allows specifically choosing which NDOGs to hide or show on the chart.
This is an example that chooses the Overlap Handling Strategy Option 6. Note that in this example, the tooltip in the price table shows a warning that the Input Number should be increased to plot some NDOGs on the chart.
Tips
Chart settings can be toggled to "Scale price chart only" to prevent the auto-scaling of TradingView from compressing the chart if there are NDOGs that are far away from the current market action.
If you change a lot of indicator settings such as NDOG color schemes, you can save the settings as the Default to prevent your settings from resetting the next time you use the indicator.
Double FVG-BPR [QuantVue]The Double FVG BPR Indicator is a versatile tool that helps traders identify potential support and resistance levels through the concept of balanced price ranges.
A Balanced Price Range (BPR) is a zone on a price chart where the market has found equilibrium after a period of price imbalance.
It is identified by detecting a Fair Value Gap (FVG) in one direction, followed by an overlapping Fair Value Gap in the opposite direction.
Components of a Balanced Price Range
Fair Value Gap (FVG): A FVG occurs when there is a rapid price movement, creating a gap in the price chart where minimal trading occurs. This gap represents an imbalance between supply and demand.
Bullish FVG: A bullish FVG is identified when the low of a candle is higher than the high of a candle two periods ago, and the close of the previous candle is higher than the high of that same period.
Bearish FVG: A bearish FVG is identified when the high of a candle is lower than the low of a candle two periods ago, and the close of the previous candle is lower than the low of that same period.
Overlapping Fair Value Gap: For a BPR to be formed, an initial FVG must be followed by an overlapping FVG in the opposite direction. This creates a balanced zone where the price has moved up (or down) quickly and then moved down (or up) with similar intensity, suggesting a temporary equilibrium.
The area between the high and low points of these overlapping FVGs forms the BPR. This zone represents a temporary market equilibrium where supply and demand have balanced out after a period of significant price movement in both directions.
How to Use
Support and Resistance Levels: The upper and lower boundaries of the BPR act as dynamic support and resistance levels. Traders can use these levels to place buy and sell orders, anticipating that the price may find support or face resistance within these zones.
Trend Reversal and Continuation: The BPR can signal potential trend reversals or continuations.
If the price moves back into the BPR after a breakout, it may indicate a reversal. Conversely, if the price breaks out of the BPR with strong momentum, it may signal a trend continuation.
Supports & Resistances [UAlgo]The "Supports & Resistances " indicator is designed to identify and visualize key support and resistance levels on the price chart. It utilizes the Average True Range (ATR) and Pivot Points to define the boundaries of S & R zones and considers historical price action to assess the strength of these zones.
🔶 How to Obtain Zones
The script continuously analyzes the price action and identifies potential support and resistance zones based on the following criteria:
Zone Creation: For swing highs, a zone is created with the high price at the zone length as the top and the top minus the Average True Range (ATR) as the bottom. Conversely, for swing lows, the zone is created with the low price at the zone length as the bottom and the low plus the ATR as the top.
Zone Strength Calculation: The script iterates through historical bars within the zone and counts how many times the price (low for support, high for resistance) touched but failed to break entirely through the zone. This count is assigned as the zone's "strength".
Zone Display and Removal: It identifying zones by assigning a "strength" value based on how many times the price has approached but failed to break the zone. This helps prioritize stronger potential support/resistance levels. Only zones exceeding the defined "strength threshold" are visually displayed on the chart. Weaker zones or those broken by price are automatically removed.
🔶 Parameters
Zone Length: Traders can adjust S & R detection sensitivity, length to be used to find pivot points.
Strength Threshold: Set the minimum number of times the price needs to touch but fail to break a zone for it to be considered "strong" and displayed.
Visual Settings: Tailor the appearance of the support/resistance zones by defining separate colors and text size for borders, backgrounds, and zone text.

Fibonacci Period Range [UkutaLabs]█ OVERVIEW
The Fibonacci Period Range Indicator is a powerful trading tool that draws levels of support and resistance that are based on key Fibonacci levels. The script will identify the high and low of a range that is specified by the user, then draw several levels of support and resistance based on Fibonacci levels.
The script will also draw extension levels outside of the specified range that are also based on Fibonacci levels. These extension levels can be turned off in the indicator settings.
Each level is also labelled to help traders understand what each line represents. These labels can be turned off in the indicator settings.
The purpose of this script is to simplify the trading experience of users by giving them the ability to customize the time period that is identified, then draw levels of support and resistance that are based on the price action during this time.
█ USAGE
In the indicator settings, the user has access to a setting called Session Range. This gives users control over the range that will be used.
The script will then identify the high and low of the range that was specified and draw several levels of support and resistance based on Fibonacci levels between this range. The user can also choose to have extension levels that display more levels outside of the range.
These lines will extend until the end of the current trading day at 5:00 pm EST.
█ SETTINGS
Configuration
• Display Mode: Determines the number of days that will be displayed by the script.
• Show Labels: Determines whether or not identifying labels will be displayed on each line.
• Font Size: Determines the text size of labels.
• Label Position: Determines the justification of labels.
• Extension Levels: Determines whether or not extension levels will be drawn outside of the high and low of the specified range.
Session
• Session Range: Determines the time period that will be used for calculations.
• Timezone Offset (+/-): Determines how many hours the session should be offset by.
Supply and Demand StrategyOverview
This strategy is designed to identify key supply (resistance) and demand (support) zones on a price chart. These zones represent areas where the price has historically shown a significant reaction, either bouncing up from a demand zone or dropping down from a supply zone. The strategy provides clear entry and exit points for trades based on these zones.
Key Components
Supply and Demand Zones:
Supply Zone: An area where the price has reversed from an uptrend to a downtrend. It represents a high concentration of sellers.
Demand Zone: An area where the price has reversed from a downtrend to an uptrend. It represents a high concentration of buyers.
Time Frames:
Use higher time frames (like daily or weekly) to identify key supply and demand zones.
Use lower time frames (like 1-hour or 4-hour) to pinpoint precise entry and exit points within these zones.
Confirmation:
Use price action and candlestick patterns (like pin bars or engulfing patterns) to confirm potential reversals in these zones.
