Candlestick analysis
Trading Halt DetectorThis is an indicator that plots RED square above or below the last candle when a trading halt occurs. Note that it only plots once the market resumes, not while it's being Halted.
It calculates the time between every candle. If there's more than 1 minutes from a candle to the next one, a red square is going to show.
For exemple, if you trade on the 1min time frame and a Halt up happens, it usualy takes 5 minutes for the market to resume. Since the resuming candle open 5 minutes later, a RED square is going to appear below the last candle before the HALT.
1. When a RED Square appears below the candle, it means that a HALT up occured.
2. When a RED Square appears above the candle, it means that a HALT down occured.
You may use this indicator on multiple time frames but it's been built for 1 to 4 minutes time frame. It' s possible to adjust the time tolerance that you consider being a halt. The default setting is 1 minutes more than the chosen time frame.
ICT Liquidity & OTE Engine - Real TimeICT Liquidity & OTE Engine - Real Time
This indicator is a comprehensive toolkit designed for traders utilizing Inner Circle Trader (ICT) concepts. It automates the identification of key structural liquidity pools (Buy Side & Sell Side Liquidity) and calculates real-time Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) levels, allowing you to react instantly to market structure shifts and liquidity sweeps.
Core Features
1. Dynamic Liquidity Pools (BSL / SSL) The script uses pivot high and low logic to identify significant swing points where stop losses and breakout orders typically reside.
BSL (Buy Side Liquidity): Green lines extending from Pivot Highs. These represent areas where short sellers have stops (buy stops).
SSL (Sell Side Liquidity): Red lines extending from Pivot Lows. These represent areas where long traders have stops (sell stops).
2. Real-Time "Sweep" Detection Unlike static support/resistance indicators, this script reacts to live price action.
Visual Feedback: When price "sweeps" or purges a liquidity level (breaks a BSL or SSL line), the line style automatically changes from solid to dotted and becomes semi-transparent.
Why this matters: This provides immediate visual confirmation that a "Stop Hunt" has occurred, often a precursor to a Smart Money reversal.
3. Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) 70.5% The indicator continuously tracks the highest high and lowest low over a definable lookback period (default 40 bars) to establish the current dealing range.
It plots the 70.5% Fibonacci retracement level, which is the classic ICT "Sweet Spot" for entries during a retracement.
This removes the need to manually draw and redraw Fib tools every time the range expands.
4. Bullish Fair Value Gap (FVG) Markers The script highlights specific bars that exhibit bullish displacement gaps, aiding in the identification of strong buying pressure or potential entries after a liquidity sweep.
How It Works
Pivots: It calculates pivots based on your user-defined Lookback input (default 20). A higher number finds longer-term swings; a lower number finds short-term scalping levels.
Liquidity Logic: Once a pivot is confirmed, a line is projected forward. If the current live High or Low breaches this line, the script detects the liquidity run and alters the line's appearance.
OTE Logic: (Highest High - Lowest Low) * 0.705. This dynamic calculation ensures the OTE level moves with the market structure in real-time.
How to Use
Identify the Sweep: Wait for price to run a SSL (Red Line) or BSL (Green Line). Watch for the line to turn dotted, indicating the liquidity has been taken.
Wait for Displacement: Look for a reaction away from the sweep (e.g., a sharp move up after taking SSL).
Find the Entry: Look for price to retrace to the plotted OTE 70.5% Line, ideally aligning with a marked FVG square, to position yourself in alignment with Smart Money.
Settings
Pivot Lookback: Adjusts the sensitivity of the liquidity lines (Default: 20).
Show BSL/SSL Lines: Toggles the liquidity pools on/off.
Show OTE Levels: Toggles the real-time Fibonacci level.
OTE Line Color: Customize the visual style of your entry level.

Footprint OverlayFootprint Overlay
Visualize order flow at individual price levels with real-time Bid x Ask, Delta, or Total Volume data
Overview
Footprint Overlay is an order flow indicator that displays volume information at each price level within a candle, directly on your chart. Choose between Delta (buying pressure minus selling pressure), Bid x Ask (sell volume vs. buy volume), or Total Volume per level. This granular, level-by-level view reveals where institutional activity is concentrated, helping you identify key support and resistance zones based on actual order flow.
Key Features
Multiple Display Modes: Choose how you want to see the data:
Delta: Shows net buying or selling pressure at each level (Buy Volume - Sell Volume).
Bid x Ask: Displays sell volume vs. buy volume side-by-side (e.g., "150 x 230").
Total Volume: Shows the combined buy and sell volume at each level.
Native Footprint Support (v6): For supported symbols, enable TradingView's native footprint data for accurate bid/ask volume attribution.
Intrabar Delta Calculation: When native footprint data is unavailable, the indicator uses lower timeframe intrabar data to estimate delta at each price level using proprietary logic that considers candle body, wicks, and price action.
Adaptive Tick Sizing: Automatically calculates an appropriate tick size (row height) based on asset type (crypto, forex, futures, etc.) and chart timeframe. Manual override is also available.
Gradient Mode: Optionally scale box opacity relative to the maximum value in the candle, making it easy to spot the most significant levels at a glance.
Customizable Colors: Set distinct colors for bullish (positive delta) and bearish (negative delta) levels.
Value Filtering: Hide levels where the displayed value is below a specified magnitude to reduce noise.
Label Display: Show delta or volume values directly on each level with K/M formatting for readability.
How It Works
Level Creation: For each confirmed candle, the indicator divides the price range into multiple levels. The number and size of levels are determined by ATR or adaptive tick calculations.
Data Collection: If native footprint data is enabled, the indicator uses TradingView's footprint API to get accurate bid/ask volumes per row. Otherwise, it requests lower timeframe intrabar data (OHLCV) to analyze price action within the main candle.
Delta Calculation: For intrabar mode, delta is calculated using proprietary logic that considers body size, wicks, and price action characteristics. Volume is distributed proportionally across all price levels the intrabar crosses.
Visualization: Each price level is rendered as a colored box. The color indicates direction (bullish/bearish), and the text shows the value based on your selected display mode.
Use Cases
Support and Resistance Identification: Large delta or volume concentrations at specific price levels often indicate significant support or resistance zones where institutional traders are active.
Order Flow Analysis: Understand where buying and selling pressure is concentrated within each candle, helping identify potential reversal or continuation zones.
Entry and Exit Timing: Use footprint data to identify optimal entry and exit points based on actual order flow, not just price action.
Confirmation Tool: Combine with other technical analysis tools. For example, a strong bullish delta at a support level can confirm a potential bounce.
Settings
Display Mode: Choose between Delta, Bid x Ask, or Total Volume.
Show Delta Labels: Toggle to show/hide value labels on each level.
Gradient Mode: Scale box opacity relative to the max value in the candle.
Max Opacity: Control the maximum opacity for level boxes.
Font Size: Adjust the text size for labels.
Min Value to Show: Filter out levels with values below this magnitude.
Max Bars to Draw: Limit drawing to the last N bars to prevent object limits.
Bullish/Bearish Delta Color: Customize colors for bullish and bearish levels.
Text Color: Customize the text color for labels.
Use Footprint Data (v6): Enable TradingView's native footprint data for supported symbols.
Tick Size Mode: Choose between Auto or Manual tick sizing.
Tick Density Multiplier: Adjust the density of price levels.
Manual Footprint Ticks: Set a fixed tick size when in Manual mode.
Technical Notes
The indicator updates in real-time as new intrabar data comes in, providing a live view of order flow on the current candle.
Drawing is limited to the last N bars (configurable) to avoid exceeding TradingView's object limits.
Adaptive tick sizing considers asset type and timeframe for optimal granularity.
Native footprint mode provides the most accurate bid/ask attribution; intrabar mode is a best-effort estimate.
Level size in intrabar mode is calculated using ATR(14) divided by 10, adapting to current market volatility.
Fractal - VA (Dynamic Wicks)This indicator, which we’ve developed as the Frectal - VA (Multi-Timeframe Visual Analytics), is designed for traders who utilize multi-timeframe analysis but want to keep their main chart clean of overlapping candles.
It functions as a Projected Dashboard, pulling price action from a higher timeframe (HTF) and rendering it as a set of dynamic, solid objects in the right-hand margin of your chart.
Core Philosophy
The "Frectal - VA" is built on the principle of Nested Structure. In professional trading, the "Value Area" or the "Fractal" of a higher timeframe often dictates the trend of the lower timeframe. By projecting these candles into the future (the right side of the chart), you can monitor HTF trend shifts, volatility, and candle closes without the HTF candles obscuring your current "live" price action.
Key Components
Decoupled Visualization: Unlike standard MTF indicators that overlay large boxes behind your current bars, this indicator creates a side-by-side comparison in the chart's whitespace.
Real-Time Data Streaming: It doesn't just show historical candles; the "lead" candle in the dashboard updates with every tick of the current price, showing you exactly how the higher timeframe candle is forming.
Dynamic Color Sync: The body, border, and wick of each projected candle are linked. If a 1-hour candle flips from bullish to bearish on a 5-minute chart, the entire dashboard object changes color instantly.
Customizable Offset: You control the "Drop" (Vertical Offset) and the "Margin" (Horizontal Offset). This allows you to tuck the indicator into a corner of your screen as a heads-up display (HUD).
Strategic Use Cases
Trend Confirmation: If you are trading a 1-minute "scalp" but the 15-minute dashboard shows a solid, large-bodied bearish candle, you are alerted to trade with the HTF momentum.
Volatility Monitoring: By observing the size of the wicks in the dashboard, you can see if the higher timeframe is experiencing "rejection" at certain levels, even if your local timeframe looks like a steady trend.
Visual Backtesting: Because it maintains a queue of the last
X
candles, you can see the immediate history of the HTF structure (e.g., a "Morning Star" pattern or "Engulfing" candles) at a glance.
Technical Specifications
Pine Script Version: v6 (latest standard).
Drawing Engine: Uses box and line arrays for high-performance rendering that doesn't lag the UI.
Memory Management: Automatically deletes old objects to stay within TradingView’s script limits, ensuring stability during long trading sessions.
Target Ladder Pro - MTF ATR + HIT ConfirmationTarget Ladder Pro is a volatility-based target framework that plots multi-timeframe ATR-derived upper and lower reference levels on the price chart and can optionally print HIT confirmations when a defined ATR target is reached.
This script is designed to provide structured volatility context (reach zones, range framing, and objective “target reached” tagging). It does not predict price direction, does not guarantee outcomes, and is not intended as a standalone signal generator.
What This Script Displays
1) Multi-Timeframe ATR Target Ladder (1H / 4H / 1D / 1W)
For each enabled timeframe, the script calculates ATR using higher-timeframe data via request.security() (no lookahead), then plots:
Upper level: Base + ATR × Multiplier
Lower level: Base − ATR × Multiplier
The “Base” can be set to:
the current chart price (for immediate relevance), or
the timeframe’s own close (for a strict MTF reference)
Each timeframe’s upper and lower levels are drawn as price-chart lines.
Last-Bar Target Balloons (per timeframe)
On the last bar, the script prints balloon labels for each timeframe’s upper and lower level. Horizontal x-offsets are configurable per timeframe to keep stacked labels readable.
2) ATR Target + Deviation Bands (Context Layer)
A separate ATR target module calculates a single ATR reference level for the current bar based on candle direction (up/down close relative to the prior close). It also optionally plots:
a mean line (moving average), and
up to four standard-deviation bands (mean ± N × deviation)
These bands provide statistical range context around price.
Target / HIT Labels (per bar)
When enabled:
a Target label marks the computed ATR target level
a HIT label appears when price reaches that target on the same bar (high/low touch rule)
An optional filter can require that the ATR target is inside the first deviation band before printing a HIT label, reducing HIT labels during extended conditions.
Label history can be limited to the most recent N labels or allowed to persist (with a safety cap).
How to Use
Enable the timeframes you want to display (e.g., 1H / 4H / 1D / 1W).
Adjust ATR length and multipliers per timeframe to match the asset’s volatility profile.
Choose whether MTF ladder levels are anchored to current price or the timeframe’s own close.
Use the ladder levels as volatility reach reference zones above and below price.
Use Target/HIT labels as objective “condition occurred” markers for review and journaling.
Notes and Limitations
ATR levels are volatility references, not forecasts or guarantees.
Targets may be reached frequently in high-volatility regimes and rarely in compressed markets.
HIT labels indicate that a defined volatility condition occurred; they do not imply reversal or continuation on their own.

Fear Greed RangesFear Greed Ranges Indicator: A Practical Guide to Market Sentiment Analysis
Introduction: Understanding Market Psychology
The "Fear Greed Ranges" indicator is a specialized technical analysis tool designed to visualize market sentiment through the lens of the Relative Strength Index (RSI). Unlike traditional RSI displays that show only a line graph, this indicator transforms raw RSI data into intuitive, color-coded zones that immediately signal whether markets are driven by fear, greed, or balanced sentiment. By providing this visual context, it helps traders identify potential turning points and manage risk more effectively.
Rational Integration: Why RSI Forms the Core
The indicator's foundation rests on the well-established RSI oscillator, chosen for several compelling reasons. First, RSI has stood the test of time since its development by J. Welles Wilder Jr. in 1978, with decades of empirical validation across various asset classes. Second, its mathematical construction—comparing the magnitude of recent gains to recent losses—directly measures momentum, which often precedes price reversals at extremes. Third, RSI's bounded nature (0-100 range) makes it ideal for creating clearly defined zones without subjective interpretation.
The integration transforms this numerical oscillator into a spatial visualization system. Rather than simply reading RSI values, traders can immediately perceive market conditions through color psychology: red triggers caution, green suggests opportunity, and yellow indicates neutrality. This multi-sensory approach reduces cognitive load during fast-moving markets and helps overcome confirmation bias that might occur when interpreting raw numbers.
Component Synergy: How the System Works Together
The indicator comprises three interconnected layers that create a unified analytical framework:
Core Calculation Layer: The traditional RSI calculation processes price data using the specified period length (default 14 periods). This generates the fundamental sentiment metric that drives all subsequent visualizations. The RSI calculation serves as the "brain" of the indicator, continuously analyzing market momentum.
Sentiment Classification Layer: This layer applies threshold logic to categorize each RSI reading into one of three emotional states. Readings above 70 are classified as "Greed" (market potentially overbought), below 30 as "Fear" (market potentially oversold), and between 30-70 as "Neutral" (balanced market conditions). These thresholds are based on the conventional RSI interpretation framework that has been widely adopted in technical analysis.
Visual Translation Layer: The most innovative aspect transforms numerical classifications into immediate visual cues. The colored ribbon area creates a "sentiment atmosphere" around price action, while the background tint provides subtle contextual framing. Horizontal reference lines at 30, 50, and 70 offer precise anchoring points, and the floating label provides real-time status updates. These elements work in concert: the ribbon shows sentiment intensity, the background provides persistent context, and the reference lines offer precise measurement points.
Practical Application: How to Use the Indicator Effectively
For optimal results, traders should incorporate this tool into a comprehensive analysis framework:
Initial Setup: Apply the indicator to any financial chart (stocks, forex, cryptocurrencies, etc.) using the default 14-period setting for general purposes. For shorter timeframes, consider reducing the period to 10; for longer-term analysis, increase to 20-25 periods.
Signal Interpretation:
When the ribbon turns red and the background tints crimson, exercise caution with new long positions and consider profit-taking on existing holdings.
Green zones may indicate accumulation opportunities, particularly if accompanied by bullish divergence (price making lower lows while RSI makes higher lows).
Yellow areas suggest normal market fluctuation where trend-following strategies may be more appropriate than reversal anticipation.
Confirmation Protocol: Always wait for additional confirmation before acting on extreme readings. For greed zone signals, look for bearish candlestick patterns, resistance at key price levels, or decreasing volume. For fear zone signals, watch for bullish reversal patterns, support levels holding, or increasing volume on down moves.
Timeframe Harmony: Analyze multiple timeframes simultaneously. A greed signal on a daily chart carries more weight than one on a 15-minute chart. Look for alignment across timeframes for higher-probability setups.
Alert Utilization: Enable the built-in alert system to receive notifications when sentiment zones change, ensuring you never miss potential opportunities or risk scenarios.
Original Contribution: What Sets This Indicator Apart
While RSI indicators are ubiquitous, the "Fear Greed Ranges" implementation offers several distinctive advantages:
Cognitive Efficiency: By converting numerical data into immediate visual perception, the indicator reduces the mental processing required to assess market conditions. Traders can glance at a chart and instantly understand the sentiment landscape without calculating or interpreting raw values.
Contextual Persistence: The colored background maintains a subtle but constant reminder of the prevailing sentiment, preventing the common pitfall of overlooking extreme conditions that might develop gradually.
Dual-Layer Communication: The system operates on both conscious (reference lines, labels) and subconscious (color psychology) levels, engaging multiple cognitive pathways for more reliable signal recognition.
Integrated Risk Framework: By explicitly naming emotional extremes ("Fear" and "Greed"), the indicator constantly reminds traders of the psychological forces driving markets, encouraging more disciplined decision-making.
Important Considerations and Limitations
No technical indicator guarantees future performance, and this tool should form only one component of a comprehensive trading strategy. Several critical factors require attention:
Market Context Matters: During strong trending markets, RSI can remain in extreme zones for extended periods without immediate reversal. In such conditions, the indicator signals strength rather than imminent reversal.
Volatility Adjustments: Highly volatile instruments may generate frequent zone changes that could lead to overtrading if not filtered appropriately.
Complementary Tools: This indicator works best when combined with price action analysis, volume studies, support/resistance levels, and fundamental factors where applicable.
Personal Adaptation: Traders should backtest the indicator on their preferred markets and timeframes to understand its characteristics before live implementation, potentially adjusting the RSI period or zone thresholds to match specific instrument behaviors.
The "Fear Greed Ranges" indicator serves as a visual translator of market psychology, converting mathematical momentum readings into intuitive emotional landscapes. By making RSI interpretation more immediate and accessible, it helps traders maintain objectivity during emotionally charged market conditions and supports more disciplined execution of their trading strategies. Remember that successful trading involves risk management, continuous learning, and adapting tools to your individual approach—this indicator provides one lens through which to view the markets, not a complete trading system in itself.

PnL Candles/Line & Stats (Long & Short)I was enthusiastic to see how a PnL (Profit & Loss) candle looks, so I created this indicator to analyze trade performance for any other indicator. It visualizes PnL using candles and lines, making it easy to track individual trades and understand their outcomes.
How to Use:
In the indicator you want to analyze, define your entry and exit conditions as numeric series (1 or 0):
Longcondition = ? 1 : 0
LongExitcondition = ? 1 : 0
plot(Longcondition, title="Long Condition")
plot(LongExitcondition, title="Long Exit Condition")
Shortcondition = ? 1 : 0
ShortExitcondition = ? 1 : 0
plot(Shortcondition, title="Short Condition")
plot(ShortExitcondition, title="Short Exit Condition")
Provide these series as inputs in the PnL indicator:
Longcondition → Long trade entry trigger
LongExitcondition → Long trade exit trigger
Shortcondition → Short trade entry trigger
ShortExitcondition → Short trade exit trigger
Use the date/time filter to focus on specific periods.
Toggle Show Long Trades and/or Show Short Trades to display only the trades you want to analyze.
Features:
Visualizes PnL for each trade via candles and hidden lines.
Tracks key statistics: total trades, win rate, MAE (Maximum Adverse Excursion), MFE (Maximum Favorable Excursion), cumulative PnL.
Calculates historically suggested stop-loss levels (educational purposes only).
Summarizes metrics in a table with separate sections for Long and Short trades.

2026 Model2026 Model
OVERVIEW
This Pine Script indicator is a comprehensive trading tool designed for identifying key market structure patterns, session-based trading opportunities, and higher timeframe context. It combines multiple trading concepts including Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), Turtle Soup patterns, Smart Money Technique (SMT) divergence, and session-based analysis.
CORE FEATURES
1. SESSION/KILLZONE DETECTION
What It Does:
- Identifies and highlights major trading sessions based on New York time (EDT/EST)
- Displays session labels that change color: light green for the current session, grey for past sessions
- Shows background shading for active sessions
Sessions Tracked:
- Asia Session: 8:00 PM - 12:00 AM NY time
- London AM: 2:00 AM - 5:00 AM NY time
- NY AM: 9:30 AM - 11:00 AM NY time
- NY PM: 1:30 PM - 4:00 PM NY time
How It Works:
- Uses timezone conversion to check if current time falls within each session range
- Creates labels at the start of each session
- Updates label colors every bar to highlight the active session
- Labels are positioned at a consistent Y-level (aligned with HTF boundary lines)
Killzone Status:
- Active during 1:00 AM - 12:59 PM NY time
- Displayed in the dashboard table
2. DAILY BIAS CALCULATION
What It Does:
- Determines market bias based on the relationship between the last two completed daily candles
- Only calculates on weekdays (Monday-Friday) for traditional markets
- Works 24/7 for crypto markets
Bias Logic:
- Bullish:
* Previous day's high exceeded the day before's high AND close was above previous day's high
* OR previous day's low was below the day before's low BUT close recovered above the day before's low
- Bearish:
* Previous day's low was below the day before's low AND close was below previous day's low
* OR previous day's high exceeded the day before's high BUT close fell below the day before's high
How It Works:
- Compares wicks and closes of the last two completed daily candles
- Persists the last weekday bias on weekends
- Displayed in the dashboard table
3. FAIR VALUE GAPS (FVGs)
What It Does:
- Identifies price gaps where liquidity was skipped
- Draws boxes on the chart showing potential retracement zones
- Uses adaptive thresholds that adjust to market volatility
FVG Types:
- Bullish FVG: Gap between candle 1's low and candle 2's high (price jumped up)
- Bearish FVG: Gap between candle 1's high and candle 2's low (price jumped down)
Threshold Modes:
1. ATR-based (Default): Automatically adapts to asset volatility
- Calculates threshold as: (ATR / Close Price) × 100 × Multiplier
- More sensitive for volatile assets, less sensitive for stable ones
2. Auto: Uses cumulative average of price changes
3. Manual: Fixed percentage threshold (e.g., 0.01%)
How It Works:
- Only detects FVGs on confirmed (closed) bars
- Requires the middle candle's percentage change to exceed the threshold
- Extends FVG boxes 15 bars forward
- Limits to 50 FVG boxes to prevent memory issues
Settings:
- Threshold multiplier (default: 1.0) - lower = more FVGs detected
- Minimum threshold override - ensures minimum quality
- ATR length for volatility calculation
4. HIGHER TIMEFRAME (HTF) CANDLE OVERLAY
What It Does:
- Displays the last 3-5 completed HTF candles on the right side of the chart
- Shows HTF context without cluttering the main chart
- Supports 1H, 4H, Daily, Weekly, and Monthly timeframes
Features:
- Candle Display: Shows completed HTF candles with proper wicks and bodies
- Boundary Lines: Optional vertical lines on the main chart marking HTF candle boundaries
- Labels: Optional time/day/month labels under each candle
- SMT Integration: Draws SMT lines connecting swing points on the overlay candles
- Turtle Soup Integration: Shows TS levels as horizontal lines on overlay candles
How It Works:
- Fetches HTF data using request.security() with lookahead_off to get only confirmed candles
- Positions candles to the right of the current chart using future bar indices
- Calculates boundary high/low from all visible candles for consistent line heights
- Only displays when chart timeframe ≤ HTF timeframe
Settings:
- HTF timeframe selection (1H, 4H, 1D, 1W, 1M)
- Number of candles to display (3, 4, or 5)
- Toggle boundary lines and labels
5. TURTLE SOUP PATTERN DETECTION
What It Does:
- Identifies false breakouts followed by reversals
- Draws horizontal lines at the price level that was broken and then reversed
- Works on multiple timeframes (15min, 1H, 4H)
Pattern Definition:
- Bullish Turtle Soup:
* Candle breaks below previous candle's low (wick goes lower)
* BUT closes above the previous candle's low
* Indicates a false breakdown, potential reversal up
- Bearish Turtle Soup:
* Candle breaks above previous candle's high (wick goes higher)
* BUT closes below the previous candle's high
* Indicates a false breakout, potential reversal down
Threshold System:
- ATR-based (Default): Adapts to volatility
- Converts ATR to PIPs: (ATR × Multiplier) / Pip Size
- Only triggers if the initial candle meets minimum size requirement
- Fixed PIPs: Uses a fixed minimum candle size in PIPs
How It Works:
- Checks patterns when HTF candles complete
- Finds the exact swing high/low time within the HTF candle (on lower timeframes)
- Finds when price broke through that level in the reversal candle
- Draws horizontal line from swing point to break point
- Tracks patterns for HTF overlay display
Settings:
- Timeframe selection (15min, 1H, 4H)
- Threshold mode (Fixed PIPs or ATR-based)
- ATR multiplier (default: 0.4)
- Minimum PIPs (for fixed mode)
6. SMART MONEY TECHNIQUE (SMT) / DIVERGENCE
What It Does:
- Detects divergence between correlated trading pairs
- Draws lines connecting swing points when one pair shows Turtle Soup but the other doesn't
- Only works on 4H timeframe and lower
SMT Logic:
- Bullish SMT:
* Correlated pair has bullish Turtle Soup (reversed upward)
* Current pair does NOT have bullish Turtle Soup
* Current pair stayed within previous candle's range (true divergence)
* Draws line connecting swing lows
- Bearish SMT:
* Correlated pair has bearish Turtle Soup (reversed downward)
* Current pair does NOT have bearish Turtle Soup
* Current pair stayed within previous candle's range (true divergence)
* Draws line connecting swing highs
Correlated Pairs:
- ES ↔ NQ (futures)
- SPX ↔ YM (indices)
- BTC ↔ ETH (crypto)
- GBPUSD ↔ EURUSD (forex)
- XAU ↔ XAG (metals)
How It Works:
- Fetches 4H Turtle Soup status for both current and correlated pair
- Checks if current pair showed true divergence (stayed in range)
- On lower timeframes, finds actual swing points within 4H candles
- Draws line connecting the two swing points
- Only triggers on new 4H bar close to avoid duplicates
- Displays on both main chart and HTF overlay
Settings:
- Toggle SMT display on/off
7. DASHBOARD TABLE
What It Does:
- Displays key market information in a table at the bottom-right corner
- Updates in real-time as market conditions change
Information Shown:
1. Killzone: Y/N - Whether currently in active trading hours (1 AM - 12:59 PM NY)
2. Daily Bias: Bullish/Bearish/N/A - Market direction from daily candle analysis
3. 4H Turtle Soup: Bullish/Bearish/No - Most recent 4H TS pattern (within last 5 candles)
4. 4H SMT: Bullish/Bearish/No - Most recent 4H SMT divergence (within last 5 candles)
How It Works:
- Checks arrays of TS and SMT occurrences
- Finds the most recent pattern within the last 5 completed 4H candles
- Updates only on the last bar to optimize performance
HOW IT ALL WORKS TOGETHER
Workflow Example:
1. Session Context: The indicator identifies you're in NY AM session (9:30-11 AM), highlights it in green
2. Daily Bias: Shows "Bullish" from yesterday's price action
3. HTF Overlay: Displays last 5 completed 4H candles on the right, showing higher timeframe structure
4. Turtle Soup: Detects a bearish TS on 4H - price broke above previous high but closed below it
5. SMT: If correlated pair (e.g., NQ) had bullish TS but current pair (ES) didn't, draws SMT line
6. FVGs: Identifies gaps in price that may get filled
7. Dashboard: Summarizes all this information in one place
Key Design Principles:
1. Adaptive Thresholds: Both FVG and Turtle Soup use ATR-based thresholds that adjust to volatility
2. Multi-Timeframe: Works across different chart timeframes while maintaining HTF context
3. Visual Clarity: Current session highlighted in green, past sessions in grey
4. Memory Management: Limits arrays to prevent performance issues
5. Confirmed Data Only: Uses lookahead_off to ensure only completed candles are analyzed
Best Practices for Use:
1. Timeframe Selection: Use lower timeframes (5m, 15m) for entries, but always check HTF overlay for context
2. Session Awareness: Trade during active killzones when liquidity is highest
3. Daily Bias: Align trades with daily bias for higher probability
4. Turtle Soup: Look for TS patterns at key support/resistance levels
5. SMT Divergence: Use SMT to identify when one pair is leading/diverging from correlated pair
6. FVG Fills: Watch for price to return and fill FVG gaps
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Performance Optimizations:
- Limits arrays to 50 elements (FVGs, TS, SMT)
- Only updates dashboard on last bar
- Clears and redraws HTF overlay each bar to prevent duplicates
- Uses efficient time-based lookups for swing point detection
Timezone Handling:
- All sessions use New York time (America/New_York)
- Handles EDT/EST automatically
- Daily bias uses exchange timezone for daily candles
Symbol Support:
- Works with forex, futures, stocks, crypto
- Automatically detects JPY pairs for correct pip calculation (0.01 vs 0.0001)
- Handles 24/7 markets (crypto) vs traditional market hours

TXG Wick DetectorOverview The TradeX Guru Wick Detector is a price action utility designed to automatically identify potential "Liquidity Grabs" and "Stop Hunts." It highlights candles where the market has aggressively rejected lower prices, signaling that Smart Money may be absorbing sell orders (the "Samosa Crust Break").
How It Works This script calculates the ratio of the lower wick relative to the total candle range.
If the lower wick represents more than 50% of the total candle size (customizable), a Teal Diamond (💎) is plotted below the bar.
This visual cue alerts you to a strong rejection of lower prices, often found at the end of a correction or during a "Stop Hunt" at key support levels.
Features
Automated Detection: Instantly spots high-rejection candles across any timeframe.
Customizable Sensitivity: Adjust the "Wick %" threshold in the settings to filter for stronger or weaker signals.
Visual Clarity: Non-intrusive diamond markers that do not clutter your chart.
Watermark: Includes the TradeX Guru brand mark for easy sharing.
🚀 How to Use This Tool for Analysis
Do not trade every diamond blindly. Use this 3-Step "Pro" Protocol to filter for high-probability setups:
1. Location (Context is King) Only consider signals that appear at Key Areas of Value:
Support Zones: Is price testing a historical support line?
Round Numbers: Is the signal near a psychological level (e.g., Nifty 25,000, BankNifty 50,000)?
High Volume Nodes (VPVR): Is price rejecting a high-volume cluster?
Rule: If a diamond appears in the middle of a random trend ("No Man's Land"), ignore it.
2. The Trap (The Hunt)
Watch for price to dip below your key level first.
The appearance of the Teal Diamond confirms that this dip was rejected. This suggests that "Stop Loss Liquidity" was hunted and absorbed by institutional buyers.
3. The Trigger (Entry & Risk)
Entry: Wait for the diamond candle to close. Enter on the next candle if bullish momentum continues.
Stop Loss: Place your SL strictly below the Low of the diamond candle.
Logic: If price breaks below the wick, the rejection has failed, and the setup is invalid.
Settings Guide
Wick Size % (Default 0.50): The wick must be 50% of the candle.
Increase to 0.60 for fewer, higher-quality signals.
Decrease to 0.40 for more frequent signals (scalping).
