Trendline Breakouts With Volume Strength [TradeDots]Trendline Breakouts With Volume Strength is an innovative indicator designed to identify potential market turning points using pivot-based trendline detection and volume confirmation. By merging dynamic trendline analysis with multi-tiered volume filters, this tool helps traders quickly spot breakouts or breakdowns that may signal significant shifts in price action.
📝 HOW IT WORKS
1. Pivot-Based Trendline Detection
The script automatically scans for recent pivot highs and lows over a user-defined lookback period.
When it finds higher pivot lows, it plots green uptrend lines; when it finds lower pivot highs, it plots red downtrend lines.
These dynamic lines update as new pivots form, providing continuously refreshed trend guidance.
2. Volume Ratio Analysis
A moving average of volume is compared against the current bar’s volume to calculate a ratio (e.g., 1.5×, 2×).
Higher ratios suggest above-average volume, often interpreted as stronger participation.
The script applies color-coded cues to highlight the intensity of volume surges.
3. Breakout & Breakdown Detection
Each trendline is monitored for a defined “break threshold,” which helps avoid minor penetrations that can trigger premature signals.
When price closes beyond a threshold below an uptrend line, the indicator labels it a “BREAKDOWN.” If it closes above a threshold on a downtrend line, it labels it a “BREAKOUT.”
Volume surges accompanying these breaks are highlighted with contextual emojis and distinct color gradients for quick visual reference.
4. Trend Direction Table
A small on-chart table provides a snapshot of the current market trend—Uptrend, Downtrend, or Sideways—based on a simple moving average slope and the number of active uptrend or downtrend lines.
This table also displays quick stats on how many lines are actively tracked, helping traders assess the broader market posture at a glance.
🛠️ HOW TO USE
1. Choose a Timeframe
This script works on multiple timeframes. Intraday traders can monitor minute or hourly charts for frequent pivot updates, while swing and position traders may prefer daily or weekly intervals to reduce noise.
2. Observe Trendlines & Labels
Watch for newly drawn green/red lines connecting pivots.
When you see a “BREAKOUT” or “BREAKDOWN” label, confirm whether volume was abnormally high based on the ratio or color-coded bars.
3. Consult the Trend Table
Use the table in the bottom-right corner to quickly check if the market is trending or range-bound.
Look at the count of active uptrend vs. downtrend lines to gauge broader sentiment.
4. Employ Additional Analysis
Combine these signals with other tools (e.g., candlestick patterns, oscillators, or fundamental analysis).
Validate potential breakouts using standard techniques like retests or support/resistance checks.
❗️LIMITATIONS
Delayed Pivots: Trendlines only adjust once new pivot highs or lows form, which can introduce a slight lag in highly volatile environments.
Choppy Markets: Rapid, back-and-forth price moves may produce conflicting trendline signals and frequent breakouts/breakdowns.
Volume Data Reliability: Gaps in volume data or unusual market conditions (holidays, low-liquidity sessions) can skew ratio readings.

ICT Directional FVG Indicator (Buffered SL)This is the first indicator I have ever made, and I am very new to Pine Script. I’ve tried my best to create this as a strategy, but I’m still learning, so please be kind and constructive with your feedback!
ICT Directional FVG Indicator (Buffered SL)
This indicator is designed for traders who follow ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts, focusing on Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), liquidity sweeps, and session-based trading. It automatically detects bullish and bearish FVGs, highlights them on the chart, and identifies liquidity sweep events. The indicator features three customizable Kill Zones (London, New York, and Asia sessions), each with independent toggles and color-coded backgrounds for clear visual separation.
Key features:
Fair Value Gap Detection: Highlights bullish and bearish FVGs in real time.
Liquidity Sweep Alerts: Marks potential liquidity sweep events for both highs and lows.
Session Kill Zones: Toggle each Kill Zone (London, New York, Asia) independently; background color changes only in enabled zones.
Trade Signal Visualization: Plots entry, stop loss, and take profit levels based on FVG and sweep logic, with a user-defined stop loss buffer.
Customizable Display: Easily enable or disable FVGs, sweeps, trade levels, and each Kill Zone to suit your strategy.
This tool is ideal for ICT-based traders who want a clear, automated view of FVGs, sweeps, and session activity, with full control over which sessions and signals are displayed.
FVG Trailing Stop [LuxAlgo]The FVG Trailing Stop indicator tracks unmitigated Fair Value Gaps (FVG) data to produce a Trailing Stop indicator able to determine if the market is uptrending or downtrending easily.
🔶 USAGE
The FVG Trailing Stop is intended to identify trend directions through its position relative to the closing price:
Bullish: Price is located above the Trailing Stop, indicating that all Bearish FVGs have been mitigated and the trend is anticipated to continue upwards.
Bearish State: Price is located below the Trailing Stop, indicating that all Bullish FVGs have been mitigated and the trend is anticipated to continue downwards.
The Trailing Stop originates from two extremities obtained from the average of respective unmitigated FVGs. The specific directional average is also displayed as a more transparent secondary line, however, the trailing stop is derived from this value and a new trend will not be detected until the opposite directional average is crossed.
Price reaching the Trailing Stop is caused by retracements and can lead to the following scenarios:
Outcome 1: The directional average is crossed next, indicating a new trend direction.
Outcome 2: The directional average is held as support or resistance, leading to a new impulse and a continuation of the trend.
🔹 Reset on Cross
While price crossing the Trailing Stop should be considered as a sign of an upcoming trend change; it is possible for the price to still evolve outside it.
As a solution, we have included the "Reset on Cross" feature, which (as the name suggests) hides and resets the Trailing Stop each time it is crossed, leading to a "Neutral" state.
This opens the opportunity for the Trailing Stop to be displayed again once the price moves again in the direction of the pre-established trend. A trader might use this to accumulate positions within a specific trend.
🔶 DETAILS
The script uses a typical identification method for FVGs. Once identified, the script collects the point of the FVG farthest from the current price when formed.
For Upwards FVGs this is the bottom of the FVG.
For Downwards FVGs this is the top of the FVG.
The data is managed only to use the last input lookback of FVGs. If an FVG is mitigated, it frees up a spot in the memory for a new FVG, however, if the lookback is full, the oldest will be deleted.
From there, it uses a "trailing" logic only to move the Trailing Stop in one direction until the trailing stop resets or the direction flips.
The extremities used to calculate the Trailing Stop are created from 2 calculation steps, the first step involves taking the raw average of the FVG mitigation levels, and the second step applies a simple moving average (SMA) smoothing of the precedent-obtained averages.
🔶 SETTINGS
Unmitigated FVG Lookback: Sets the maximum number of Unmitigated FVGs that the script will use.
Smoothing Length: Sets the smoothing length for the Trailing Stop to reduce erratic results.
Reset on Cross: When enabled, hide and reset the Trailing Stop until the price starts moving in the pre-established trend direction again.
Options Volatility Strategy Analyzer [TradeDots]The Options Volatility Strategy Analyzer is a specialized tool designed to help traders assess market conditions through a detailed examination of historical volatility, market benchmarks, and percentile-based thresholds. By integrating multiple volatility metrics (including VIX and VIX9D) with color-coded regime detection, the script provides users with clear, actionable insights for selecting appropriate options strategies.
📝 HOW IT WORKS
1. Historical Volatility & Percentile Calculations
Annualized Historical Volatility (HV): The script automatically computes the asset’s historical volatility using log returns over a user-defined period. It then annualizes these values based on the chart’s timeframe, helping you understand the asset’s typical volatility profile.
Dynamic Percentile Ranks: To gauge where the current volatility level stands relative to past behavior, historical volatility values are compared against short, medium, and long lookback periods. Tracking these percentile ranks allows you to quickly see if volatility is high or low compared to historical norms.
2. Multi-Market Benchmark Comparison
VIX and VIX9D Integration: The script tracks market volatility through the VIX and VIX9D indices, comparing them to the asset’s historical volatility. This reveals whether the asset’s volatility is outpacing, lagging, or remaining in sync with broader market volatility conditions.
Market Context Analysis: A built-in term-structure check can detect market stress or relative calm by measuring how VIX compares to shorter-dated volatility (VIX9D). This helps you decide if the present environment is risk-prone or relatively stable.
3. Volatility Regime Detection
Color-Coded Background: The analyzer assigns a volatility regime (e.g., “High Asset Vol,” “Low Asset Vol,” “Outpacing Market,” etc.) based on current historical volatility percentile levels and asset vs. market ratios. A color-coded background highlights the regime, enabling traders to quickly interpret the market’s mood.
Alerts on Regime Changes & Spikes: Automated alerts warn you about any significant expansions or contractions in volatility, allowing you to react swiftly in changing conditions.
4. Strategy Forecast Table
Real-Time Strategy Suggestions: At the close of each bar, an on-chart table generates suggested options strategies (e.g., selling premium in high volatility or buying premium in low volatility). These suggestions provide a quick summary of potential tactics suited to the current regime.
Contextual Market Data: The table also displays key statistics, such as VIX levels, asset historical volatility percentile, or ratio comparisons, helping you confirm whether volatility conditions warrant more conservative or more aggressive strategies.
🛠️ HOW TO USE
1. Select Your Timeframe: The script supports multiple timeframes. For short-term trading, intraday charts often reveal faster shifts in volatility. For swing or position trading, daily or weekly charts may be more stable and produce fewer false signals.
2. Check the Volatility Regime: Observe the background color and on-chart labels to identify the current regime (e.g., “HIGH ASSET VOL,” “LOW VOL + LAGGING,” etc.).
3. Review the Forecast Table: The table suggests strategy ideas (e.g., iron condors, long straddles, ratio spreads) depending on whether volatility is elevated, subdued, or spiking. Use these as a starting point for designing trades that match your risk tolerance.
4. Combine with Additional Analysis: For optimal results, confirm signals with your broader trading plan, technical tools (moving averages, price action), and fundamental research. This script is most effective when viewed as one component in a comprehensive decision-making process.
❗️LIMITATIONS
Directional Neutrality: This indicator analyzes volatility environments but does not predict price direction (up/down). Traders must combine with directional analysis for complete strategy selection.
Late or Missed Signals: Since all calculations require a bar to close, sharp intrabar volatility moves may not appear in real-time.
False Positives in Choppy Markets: Rapid changes in percentile ranks or VIX movements can generate conflicting or premature regime shifts.
Data Sensitivity: Accuracy depends on the availability and stability of volatility data. Significant gaps or unusual market conditions may skew results.
Market Correlation Assumptions: The system assumes assets generally correlate with S&P 500 volatility patterns. May be less effective for:
Small-cap stocks with unique volatility drivers
International stocks with different market dynamics
Sector-specific events disconnected from broad market
Cryptocurrency-related assets with independent volatility patterns
RISK DISCLAIMER
Options trading involves substantial risk and is not suitable for all investors. Options strategies can result in significant losses, including the total loss of premium paid. The complexity of options strategies requires thorough understanding of the risks involved.
This indicator provides volatility analysis for educational and informational purposes only and should not be considered as investment advice. Past volatility patterns do not guarantee future performance. Market conditions can change rapidly, and volatility regimes may shift without warning.
No trading system can guarantee profits, and all trading involves the risk of loss. The indicator's regime classifications and strategy suggestions should be used as part of a comprehensive trading plan that includes proper risk management, directional analysis, and consideration of broader market conditions.

FvgTypes█ OVERVIEW
This library serves as a foundational module for Pine Script™ projects focused on Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). Its primary purpose is to define and centralize custom data structures (User-Defined Types - UDTs) and enumerations that are utilized across various components of an FVG analysis system. By providing standardized types for FVG characteristics and drawing configurations, it promotes code consistency, readability, and easier maintenance within a larger FVG indicator or strategy.
█ CONCEPTS
The library introduces several key data structures (User-Defined Types - UDTs) and an enumeration to organize Fair Value Gap (FVG) related data logically. These types are central to the functioning of FVG analysis tools built upon this library.
Timeframe Categorization (`tfType` Enum)
To manage and differentiate FVGs based on their timeframe of origin, the `tfType` enumeration is defined. It includes:
`LTF`: Low Timeframe (typically the current chart).
`MTF`: Medium Timeframe.
`HTF`: High Timeframe.
This allows for distinct logic and visual settings to be applied depending on the FVG's source timeframe.
FVG Data Encapsulation (`fvgObject` UDT)
The `fvgObject` is a comprehensive UDT designed to encapsulate all pertinent information and state for an individual Fair Value Gap throughout its lifecycle. Instead of listing every field, its conceptual structure can be understood as holding:
Core Definition: The FVG's fundamental price levels (top, bottom) and its formation time (`startTime`).
Classification Attributes: Characteristics such as its direction (`isBullish`) and whether it qualifies as a Large Volume FVG (`isLV`), along with its originating timeframe category (`tfType`).
Lifecycle State: Current status indicators including full mitigation (`isMitigated`, `mitigationTime`), partial fill levels (`currentTop`, `currentBottom`), midline interaction (`isMidlineTouched`), and overall visibility (`isVisible`).
Drawing Identifiers: References (`boxId`, `midLineId`, `mitLineLabelId`, etc.) to the actual graphical objects drawn on the chart to represent the FVG and its components.
Optimization Cache: Previous-bar state values (`prevIsMitigated`, `prevCurrentTop`, etc.) crucial for optimizing drawing updates by avoiding redundant operations.
This comprehensive structure facilitates easy access to all FVG-related information through a single object, reducing code complexity and improving manageability.
Drawing Configuration (`drawSettings` UDT)
The `drawSettings` UDT centralizes all user-configurable parameters that dictate the visual appearance of FVGs across different timeframes. It's typically populated from script inputs and conceptually groups settings for:
General Behavior: Global FVG classification toggles (e.g., `shouldClassifyLV`) and general display rules (e.g., `shouldHideMitigated`).
FVG Type Specific Colors: Colors for standard and Large Volume FVGs, both active and mitigated (e.g., `lvBullColor`, `mitigatedBearBoxColor`).
Timeframe-Specific Visuals (LTF, MTF, HTF): Detailed parameters for each timeframe category, covering FVG boxes (visibility, colors, extension, borders, labels), midlines (visibility, style, color), and mitigation lines (visibility, style, color, labels, persistence after mitigation).
Contextual Information: The current bar's time (`currentTime`) for accurate positioning of time-dependent drawing elements and timeframe display strings (`tfString`, `mtfTfString`, `htfTfString`).
This centralized approach allows for extensive customization of FVG visuals and simplifies the management of drawing parameters within the main script. Such centralization also enhances the maintainability of the visual aspects of the FVG system.
█ NOTES
User-Defined Types (UDTs): This library extensively uses UDTs (`fvgObject`, `drawSettings`) to group related data. This improves code organization and makes it easier to pass complex data between functions and libraries.
Mutability and Reference Behavior of UDTs: When UDT instances are passed to functions or methods in other libraries (like `fvgObjectLib`), those functions might modify the fields of the passed object if they are not explicitly designed to return new instances. This is because UDTs are passed by reference and are mutable in Pine Script™. Users should be aware of this standard behavior to prevent unintended side effects.
Optimization Fields: The `prev_*` fields in `fvgObject` are crucial for performance optimization in the drawing logic. They help avoid unnecessary redrawing of FVG elements if their state or relevant settings haven't changed.
No Direct Drawing Logic: `FvgTypes` itself does not contain any drawing logic. It solely defines the data structures. The actual drawing and manipulation of these objects are handled by other libraries (e.g., `fvgObjectLib`).
Centralized Definitions: By defining these types in a separate library, any changes to the structure of FVG data or settings can be made in one place, ensuring consistency across all dependent scripts and libraries.

Ensemble Consensus System
The Ensemble Consensus System (ECS) brings a **Random Forest-style ensemble vote** to Pine Script: five orthogonal "expert" strategies each cast a bull/bear vote (+1/-1/0), and only high-confidence consensus moves become signals—dramatically reducing noise while capturing strong directional moves.
## What Makes This Original
ECS is the first Pine Script indicator to implement true machine learning-style ensemble voting. Rather than relying on a single methodology, five independent experts analyze different market dimensions:
• **Trend Expert**: Multi-timeframe EMA alignment analysis
• **Momentum Expert**: RSI/MACD/Stochastic confluence with consistency filters
• **Volume Expert**: Proprietary volume pressure + OBV confirmation
• **Volatility Expert**: Bollinger Band mean reversion opportunities
• **Structure Expert**: Adaptive pivot-based support/resistance detection
## How It Works
The system requires consensus among experts, with an **adaptive threshold** based on market volatility:
| Volatility Regime | ATR/Close | Votes Required |
|-------------------|-----------|----------------|
| Low Volatility | <1% | 2+ |
| Normal Markets | 1-2% | 3+ |
| High Volatility | >2% | 4+ |
This dynamic adjustment prevents overtrading in choppy conditions while maintaining responsiveness during strong trends.
## Key Features
### Signals
• **Visual entry points** with strength percentage (60% = 3/5 experts agree)
• **Adaptive thresholds** that adjust to market conditions
• **Multi-expert consensus** reduces false signals
### Risk Control
• **Dynamic stop-loss/take-profit** based on ATR
• **Regime-adjusted targets** (±50% in volatile markets)
• **Visual SL/TP lines** with exact price labels
### Analytics
• **Real-time vote panel** showing each expert's stance
• **Performance tracking** with win rate and P/L
• **Market regime indicator** (Trending/Ranging/Volatile)
• **Light Mode** for better performance on slower systems
## How to Use
1. **Apply ECS** to a liquid instrument on 15m-4H timeframe (best: 1H)
2. **Wait for signal** - green ▲ for long, red ▼ for short with strength %
3. **Verify votes** - check panel to see which experts agree
4. **Execute trade** using the displayed SL/TP levels
5. **Monitor regime** - be cautious if market regime changes
### Quick Start Settings
• **Standard Trading**: Use defaults (3 votes, adaptive mode ON)
• **Conservative**: Increase to 4 votes minimum
• **Aggressive**: Reduce to 2 votes, tighten stops
## Important Limitations
• **Chart Types**: Not compatible with Renko/Heikin-Ashi
• **Volume Data**: Requires reliable volume (forex pairs may underperform)
• **News Events**: Signals may lag during gaps/major announcements
• **Processing**: Heavy calculations - use Light Mode if needed
## Settings Guide
**Ensemble Controls**
• `Minimum Votes` (default: 3): Base threshold before volatility adjustment
• `Adaptive Mode` (default: ON): Auto-adjusts threshold by market volatility
**Visual Options**
• `Vote Panel`: Live expert voting display
• `Performance Stats`: Win rate and trade tracking
• `Light Mode`: Disables heavy visuals for speed
**Risk Parameters**
• `Stop Multiplier` (default: 2.0): ATR multiple for stop-loss
• `TP Multiplier` (default: 3.0): ATR multiple for take-profit
• `Dynamic TP` (default: ON): Adjusts targets by market regime
## Troubleshooting
**Too few signals?**
→ Lower minimum votes or check if market is ranging
**Indicator running slow?**
→ Enable Light Mode, disable performance tracking
**Weird volume votes?**
→ Verify your symbol has accurate volume data
## Technical Concepts
The ensemble approach mimics **Random Forest algorithms** where multiple decision trees vote on outcomes. By requiring agreement among experts using orthogonal methodologies, ECS filters out signals that would fail under different market lenses. The adaptive threshold addresses fixed-parameter weakness by dynamically adjusting selectivity based on volatility.
• Adaptive pivot lookback for dynamic structure detection
• Safe volume pressure calculation preventing division errors
• Momentum consistency filter reducing choppy false signals
• Unified dashboard merging vote panel + performance stats
• Regime-based dynamic take-profit adjustment

Institutional Volume Profile# Institutional Volume Profile (IVP) - Advanced Volume Analysis Indicator
## Overview
The Institutional Volume Profile (IVP) is a sophisticated technical analysis tool that combines traditional volume profile analysis with institutional volume detection algorithms. This indicator helps traders identify key price levels where significant institutional activity has occurred, providing insights into market structure and potential support/resistance zones.
## Key Features
### 🎯 Volume Profile Analysis
- **Point of Control (POC)**: Identifies the price level with the highest volume activity
- **Value Area**: Highlights the price range containing a specified percentage (default 70%) of total volume
- **Multi-Row Distribution**: Displays volume distribution across 10-50 price levels for detailed analysis
- **Customizable Period**: Analyze volume profiles over 10-500 bars
### 🏛️ Institutional Volume Detection
- **Pocket Pivot Volume (PPV)**: Detects bullish institutional buying when up-volume exceeds recent down-volume peaks
- **Pivot Negative Volume (PNV)**: Identifies bearish institutional selling when down-volume exceeds recent up-volume peaks
- **Accumulation Detection**: Spots potential accumulation phases with high volume and narrow price ranges
- **Distribution Analysis**: Identifies distribution patterns with high volume but minimal price movement
### 🎨 Visual Customization Options
- **Multiple Color Schemes**: Heat Map, Institutional, Monochrome, and Rainbow themes
- **Bar Styles**: Solid, Gradient, Outlined, and 3D Effect rendering
- **Volume Intensity Display**: Visual intensity based on volume magnitude
- **Flexible Positioning**: Left or right side profile placement
- **Current Price Highlighting**: Real-time price level indication
### 📊 Advanced Visual Features
- **Volume Labels**: Display volume amounts at key price levels
- **Gradient Effects**: Multi-step gradient rendering for enhanced visibility
- **3D Styling**: Shadow effects for professional appearance
- **Opacity Control**: Adjustable transparency (10-100%)
- **Border Customization**: Configurable border width and styling
## How It Works
### Volume Distribution Algorithm
The indicator analyzes each bar within the specified period and distributes its volume proportionally across the price levels it touches. This creates an accurate representation of where trading activity has been concentrated.
### Institutional Detection Logic
- **PPV Trigger**: Current up-bar volume > highest down-volume in lookback period + above volume MA
- **PNV Trigger**: Current down-bar volume > highest up-volume in lookback period + above volume MA
- **Accumulation**: High volume + narrow range + bullish close
- **Distribution**: Very high volume + minimal price movement
### Value Area Calculation
Starting from the POC, the algorithm expands both upward and downward, adding volume until reaching the specified percentage of total volume (default 70%).
## Configuration Parameters
### Profile Settings
- **Profile Period**: 10-500 bars (default: 50)
- **Number of Rows**: 10-50 levels (default: 24)
- **Profile Width**: 10-100% of screen (default: 30%)
- **Value Area %**: 50-90% (default: 70%)
### Institutional Analysis
- **PPV Lookback Days**: 5-20 periods (default: 10)
- **Volume MA Length**: 10-200 periods (default: 50)
- **Institutional Threshold**: 1.0-2.0x multiplier (default: 1.2)
### Visual Controls
- **Bar Style**: Solid, Gradient, Outlined, 3D Effect
- **Color Scheme**: Heat Map, Institutional, Monochrome, Rainbow
- **Profile Position**: Left or Right side
- **Opacity**: 10-100%
- **Show Labels**: Volume amount display toggle
## Interpretation Guide
### Volume Profile Elements
- **Thick Horizontal Bars**: High volume nodes (strong support/resistance)
- **Thin Horizontal Bars**: Low volume nodes (weak levels)
- **White Line (POC)**: Strongest support/resistance level
- **Blue Highlighted Area**: Value Area (fair value zone)
### Institutional Signals
- **Blue Triangles (PPV)**: Bullish institutional buying detected
- **Orange Triangles (PNV)**: Bearish institutional selling detected
- **Color-Coded Bars**: Different colors indicate institutional activity types
### Color Scheme Meanings
- **Heat Map**: Red (high volume) → Orange → Yellow → Gray (low volume)
- **Institutional**: Blue (PPV), Orange (PNV), Aqua (Accumulation), Yellow (Distribution)
- **Monochrome**: Grayscale intensity based on volume
- **Rainbow**: Color-coded by price level position
## Trading Applications
### Support and Resistance
- POC acts as dynamic support/resistance
- High volume nodes indicate strong price levels
- Low volume areas suggest potential breakout zones
### Institutional Activity
- PPV above Value Area: Strong bullish signal
- PNV below Value Area: Strong bearish signal
- Accumulation patterns: Potential upward breakouts
- Distribution patterns: Potential downward pressure
### Market Structure Analysis

Support and Resistance Profile with Volatility ClusteringThe indicator begins by looking at recent volatility behavior in the market: it measures the average true range over your chosen “Length” and compares it to the average true range over ten times that period. When volatility over the short window is high relative to longer-term volatility, we mark that period as a “cluster.” As price moves through these clusters—whether in a quiet period or a sudden burst of activity—the script isolates each cluster and examines the sequence of closing prices within it.
Within every cluster, the algorithm next finds the points along the price path that matter most to a human eye, smoothing out minor wobbles and highlighting the peaks and valleys that define the cluster’s shape. It does this by drawing a straight line between the beginning and end of the cluster, then repeatedly snapping the single point that deviates most from that line back onto it and re-interpolating, until it has identified a fixed number of perceptually important points. Those points capture where price really turned or accelerated, stripping away noise so that you see the genuine memory-markers in each volatility episode.
Each of those important points inherits a “weight” based on the cluster’s normalized volatility—essentially how large the average true range in that cluster was relative to its average close. Over your “Main Length for Profile” window, every time one of these weighted points occurs at a particular price level, it adds to a running total in that level’s bin. At the end of the window you see a silhouette of boxes extending to the right of the chart: where boxes are wide, many important points (with high volatility weight) have happened there in the past; where boxes are thin or absent, price memory is light.
For a trader, the value of this profile lies in spotting zones where the market has repeatedly “remembered” price extremes during volatile episodes—those are areas where support or resistance is likely to be strongest. Conversely, gaps in the profile—price levels with little weighted history—suggest frictionless zones. If price enters such a gap, it may move swiftly until it encounters another region of heavy memory. You can use this in several ways: as a filter on breakouts and breakdowns (only trade through a gap when you see sufficient momentum), as a guide for scaling into positions (add when price enters a low-memory zone and tighten stops where memory boxes thicken), or to anticipate where price might pause or reverse (when it reaches a band of wide boxes). By turning raw volatility clusters into a human-readable map of price memory, this tool helps you see at a glance where the market is likely to push or pause—and plan entries, exits, and risk targets accordingly.

Momentum Long + Short Strategy (BTC 3H)Momentum Long + Short Strategy (BTC 3H)
🔍 How It Works, Step by Step
Detect the Trend (📈/📉)
Calculate two moving averages (100-period and 500-period), either EMA or SMA.
For longs, we require MA100 > MA500 (uptrend).
For shorts, we block entries if MA100 exceeds MA500 by more than a set percentage (to avoid fading a powerful uptrend).
Apply Momentum Filters (⚡️)
RSI Filter: Measures recent strength—only allow longs when RSI crosses above its smoothed average, and shorts when RSI dips below the oversold threshold.
ADX Filter: Gauges trend strength—ensures we only enter when a meaningful trend exists (optional).
ATR Filter: Confirms volatility—avoids choppy, low-volatility conditions by requiring ATR to exceed its smoothed value (optional).
Confirm Entry Conditions (✅)
Long Entry:
Price is above both MAs
Trend alignment & optional filters pass ✅
Short Entry:
Price is below both MAs and below the lower Bollinger Band
RSI is sufficiently oversold
Trend-blocker & ATR filter pass ✅
Position Sizing & Risk (💰)
Each trade uses 100 % of account equity by default.
One pyramid addition allowed, so you can scale in if the move continues.
Commission and slippage assumptions built in for realistic backtests.
Stops & Exits (🛑)
Long Stop-Loss: e.g. 3 % below entry.
Long Auto-Exit: If price falls back under the 500-period MA.
Short Stop-Loss: e.g. 3 % above entry.
Short Take-Profit: e.g. 4 % below entry.
🎨 Why It’s Powerful & Customizable
Modular Filters: Turn on/off RSI, ADX, ATR filters to suit different market regimes.
Adjustable Thresholds: Fine-tune stop-loss %, take-profit %, RSI lengths, MA gaps and more.
Multi-Timeframe Potential: Although coded for 3 h BTC, you can adapt it to stocks, forex or other cryptos—just recalibrate!
Backtest Fine-Tuned: Default settings were optimized via backtesting on historical BTC data—but they’re not guarantees of future performance.
⚠️ Warning & Disclaimer
This strategy is for educational purposes only and designed for a toy fund. Crypto markets are highly volatile—you can lose 100 % of your capital. It is not a predictive “holy grail” but a rules-based framework using past data. The parameters have been fine-tuned on historical data and are not valid for future trades without fresh calibration. Always practice with paper-trading first, use proper risk management, and do your own research before risking real money. 🚨🔒

Anchored VWAP by Time (Math by Thomas)📄 Description
This tool lets you plot an Anchored Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) starting from any specific date and time you choose. Unlike standard VWAPs that reset daily or weekly, this version gives you full control to track institutional pricing zones from precise anchor points—such as key swing highs/lows, market open, or news-driven candles.
It’s especially useful for price action and Smart Money Concepts (SMC) traders who track liquidity, fair value gaps (FVGs), and institutional zones.
🇮🇳 For NSE India Traders
You can anchor VWAP to Indian market open (e.g., 9:15 AM IST) or major events like RBI policy, earnings, or breakout candles.
The time input uses UTC by default, so for Indian Standard Time (IST), remember:
9:15 AM IST = 3:45 AM UTC
3:30 PM IST = 10:00 AM UTC
⚙️ How to Use
Add the indicator to your chart.
Open the settings panel.
Under “Anchor Start Time”, choose the date & time to begin the VWAP.
Use UTC format (adjust from IST if needed).
Customize the line color and thickness to suit your chart style.
The VWAP will begin plotting from that time forward.
🔎 Best Use Cases
Track VWAP from intraday range breakouts
Anchor from swing highs/lows to identify mean reversion zones
Combine with your FVGs, Order Blocks, or CHoCHs
Monitor VWAP reactions during key macro events or expiry days
🔧 Clean Design
No labels are used, keeping your chart clean.
Works on all timeframes (1min to Daily).
Designed for serious intraday & positional traders.
SMC Strategy BTC 1H - OB/FVGGeneral Context
This strategy is based on Smart Money Concepts (SMC), in particular:
The bullish Break of Structure (BOS), indicating a possible reversal or continuation of an upward trend.
The detection of Order Blocks (OB): consolidation zones preceding the BOS where the "smart money" has likely accumulated positions.
The detection of Fair Value Gaps (FVG), also called imbalance zones where the price has "jumped" a level, creating a disequilibrium between buyers and sellers.
Strategy Mechanics
Bullish Break of Structure (BOS)
A bullish BOS is detected when the price breaks a previous swing high.
A swing high is defined as a local peak higher than the previous 4 peaks.
Order Block (OB)
A bearish candle (close < open) just before a bullish BOS is identified as an OB.
This OB is recorded with its high and low.
An "active" OB zone is maintained for a certain number of bars (the zoneTimeout parameter).
Fair Value Gap (FVG)
A bullish FVG is detected if the high of the candle two bars ago is lower than the low of the current candle.
This FVG zone is also recorded and remains active for zoneTimeout bars.
Long Entry
An entry is possible if the price returns into the active OB zone or FVG zone (depending on which parameters are enabled).
Entry is only allowed if no position is currently open (strategy.position_size == 0).
Risk Management
The stop loss is placed below the OB low, with a buffer based on a multiple of the ATR (Average True Range), adjustable via the atrFactor parameter.
The take profit is set according to an adjustable Risk/Reward ratio (rrRatio) relative to the stop loss to entry distance.
Adjustable Parameters
Enable/disable entries based on OB and/or FVG.
ATR multiplier for stop loss.
Risk/Reward ratio for take profit.
Duration of OB and FVG zone activation.
Visualization
The script displays:
BOS (Break of Structure) with a green label above the candles.
OB zones (in orange) and FVG zones (in light blue).
Entry signals (green triangle below the candle).
Stop loss (red line) and take profit (green line).
Strengths and Limitations
Strengths:
Based on solid Smart Money analysis concepts.
OB and FVG zones are natural potential reversal areas.
Adjustable parameters allow optimization for different market conditions.
Dynamic risk management via ATR.
Limitations:
Only takes long positions.
No trend filter (e.g., EMA), which may lead to false signals in sideways markets.
Fixed zone duration may not fit all situations.
No automatic optimization; testing with different parameters is necessary.
Summary
This strategy aims to capitalize on price retracements into key zones where "smart money" has acted (OB and FVG) just after a bullish Break of Structure (BOS) signal. It is simple, customizable, and can serve as a foundation for a more comprehensive strategy.
LULD Bands & Trading Halt Detector [Volume Vigilante]📖 LULD Bands & Trading Halt Detector
This advanced tool visualizes official Limit Up / Limit Down (LULD) price bands and detects regulatory trading halts and resumptions based on SEC and NASDAQ rules. It is engineered for high accuracy by anchoring all calculations to the 1-minute timeframe, ensuring reliable signals across any chart resolution.
📌 What Does This Script Do?
- Draws real-time LULD price band estimations and optional buffer (caution) zones directly on the chart.
- Detects trading halt resumptions by monitoring time gaps between candles and other regulatory criteria. (Note: Due to Pine Script limitations, halts cannot be detected in real-time, only resumptions after they occur.)
- Triggers real-time alerts for:
- Trading Resumptions (Limit Up & Limit Down)
- LULD Zone Entries (Caution Zone)
- Band Breaches (Limit Up and Limit Down)
- Plots historical halt resumption markers to analyse past events.
📐 How It Works:
- Implements official SEC/NASDAQ LULD rules for Tier 1 and Tier 2 securities.
- Applies special band adjustments for the final 25 minutes of trading (after 3:35 PM ET).
- Anchors all logic to the 1-minute timeframe for precise calculations, even on higher timeframe charts.
- Includes adjustable volume and volatility filters to eliminate false signals (ghost halts) on low-- liquidity assets, especially Tier 2 securities when TradingView fails to print candles.
⚙️ How to Use It:
1.) Apply the script to any asset or timeframe.
2.) Adjust Volume and Volatility Filters to reduce noise. (Recommended: 500,000+ volume, 10%+ volatility.)
3.) Enable or disable visual components like bands, buffer zones, and halt resumption labels.
4.) Configure alerts directly from the script settings panel.
5.) Apply alerts to individual assets via "Add Alert On..." or to entire watchlists using "Add Alert on the List."
🧩 What Makes This Script Unique?
- True 1-Minute Anchored Calculations: Ensures alerts and visuals match official trading halt criteria regardless of chart timeframe.
- Customisable Buffered Zones: Visualise proximity to regulatory price limits and avoid volatility traps.
- Combines halt resumption detection, limit up/down band visualisation, and real-time alerts into one clean, modular tool.

RSI Phan Ky FullThe RSI divergence indicator is like a magnifying glass that spots gaps between price swings and momentum. When price keeps climbing but RSI quietly sags, it’s a flashing U‑turn sign: the bulls are winded, and the bears are lacing up their boots. Flip it around—price is sliding yet RSI edges higher—and you’ve got bulls secretly stockpiling. Hidden divergences shore up the trend; regular divergences hint at a pivot. Blend those signals with overbought/oversold zones, support‑resistance, and volume, and RSI divergence turns into a radar that helps traders jump in with swagger and bail out just in time.
Intraday Fibs RetracementFibonacci (Fibs) levels are often used by traders as a way to find support and resistance, based on the Fibonacci sequence. These levels are widely used in technical analysis to identify potential reversal points in the price of an asset.
Fibs retracement draws lines at these Fibs level between a significant high and low point on a price chart.
What it shows:
This indicator will automatically draw Fibs Retracement Levels on your chart without any manual work.
It is designed to be used for day trading, especially in scenarios where a ticker gaps up/down large compared to the prior day close. (i.e. scenario where the difference of day's open and prior day close is large)
The drawing will happen on each trading day the moment trading hours open, and will NOT draw during pre-market and post-market.
User can see the line of each Fibs level, labelled with the Fib percentage and price value for the corresponding levels.
User will specify a start and end point of Fibs and based on the choice the indicator will automatically compute the other user defined Fibs levels and display on the chart.
How to use it:
The Fib levels drawn can be a potential support and resistance zone. Therefore in scenario where you already have a position and are approaching one of these levels it could be a point to close out some or all the position as you are approaching a resistance. On the other hand when price do approach these levels you could enter a position for a reversal trade. These are few ways to use the indicator but there are other ways that can be used, which can be found out by researching "Fibonacci (Fibs) Retracement".
In the example on the chart you can see a price bounce from the 0.7886 Fibs level on this particular day, where the price gapped up and was coming down after market hours opened.
Key settings:
1. Fibs Retracement Start and end Point: User selects where the Fibs levels should be drawn.
Available Options are:
Start Points:
Market Open
Market Open High (Dependent on the time frame you are on)
Pre-market High
Day's High
End Points:
Previous Day Close
Previous Day Low
Previous Day High
Pre-market Low (Current Day)
Day's Low
2. Custom Fib Levels: User can manually enter the Fib levels they want to see. (Max 9)
Default values are: 0,0.236,0.382,0.5,0.618,0.786,1,1.618,2.618.
3. Display settings: User can specify the line colour, thickness and style.
4. Label Setting: User can choose to turn on/off the labels for the each Fibs Level. Label will show the fib percentage and the corresponding price. User can also choose the location of the labels, defined by an offset from the current candle.

FVG + OB + RSI Divergence + Volume Spikes🧠 FVG + OB + RSI Divergence + Volume Spikes – Market Structure Confluence Tool
This all-in-one indicator brings together four powerful market concepts into a single script designed to help traders identify high-probability trade setups with precision and clarity:
🔍 What It Does
✅ Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Highlights inefficiencies in price action, showing where the market may return to “rebalance.”
✅ Order Blocks (OB)
Marks key institutional footprints — bullish and bearish order blocks based on engulfing candle structures.
✅ RSI Divergence
Detects both bullish and bearish divergences between price and RSI, signaling potential reversals.
✅ Volume Spikes
Flags bars where volume significantly exceeds the average — a common footprint of smart money.
🎯 How to Use
Use this tool to spot confluences between price inefficiencies (FVG), key reversal zones (OB), momentum shifts (RSI Divergence), and institutional interest (Volume Spikes). The best setups often occur when multiple signals align — especially at key support/resistance or trend zones.
⚙️ Inputs
RSI length (for divergence)
Volume spike sensitivity (multiplier)
Lookback for Order Blocks and FVGs
⚠️ Notes
This is a non-repainting tool.
Ideal for price action, SMC, ICT, and order flow traders.
Combine with your existing strategy and higher time frame bias for best results.
iFVG (BPR)
This indicator detects Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Inversion Zones (iFVGs) based concept from the ICT methodology.
An iFVG forms when a bullish and a bearish FVG overlap, creating a double imbalance zone. These are high-reaction points often targeted by smart money.
🔷 What It Detects
Bullish FVG: When the high of Candle 1 is lower than the low of Candle 3
Bearish FVG: When the low of Candle 1 is higher than the high of Candle 3
iFVG (or BPR): When a bullish and bearish FVG overlap, forming a double imbalance zone
🔷Mitigation Logic
An FVG or BPR becomes an iFVG when price closes against its original bias Once this happens, the zone is reclassified as a potential support or resistance (iFVG)
If price later mitigates the iFVG, all visual elements are automatically removed to keep the chart clean
🔷Visual Output
Standard FVGs: Customizable lines between Candle 1 and Candle 3
iFVGs (mitigated BPRs): Adjustable and highlighted rectangles to show the full zone
Mitigation Type: FVG or iFVG zones disappear when 50% of the zone is reached
🔷Custom Settings
Show Last Zones: Set how many recent zones to display on the chart (max 100)
Mitigation Type: Based on the percentage of zone coverage
Color & Style: Customize the appearance of FVG and iFVG zones
🔷 Use Case
This indicator is designed for real-time institutional analysis, helping traders identify:
Recent imbalances (FVGs)
Confluence zones (iFVGs = BPRs)
High-reaction points in the market
Ideal when combined with market structure, liquidity levels, and Kill Zones
Best used in combination with market structure, liquidity zones, and Kill Zone timing .

The previous day’s high/low is a widely‑watched pivot for gap fills, overnight inventory corrections and multi‑day breakouts.
Mean‑Reversion Windows
Statistically, pre‑ and post‑market ranges are thin; an aggressive spike outside those bands often retraces when full liquidity returns.
Break‑Out Confirmation
A true breakout isn’t just a tick above RTH‑high—it usually closes or at least consolidates above the prior extreme. Seeing all bands lets you gauge whether a push is “real” or just probing thinner sessions.
Put simply, these levels help you decide:
Break‑out ➜ trade in the direction of expansion past a session extreme with follow‑through.
Fade/Mean‑Revert ➜ fade a spike that tags an extreme without commitment (e.g., hits Western‑Premkt‑High then stalls before RTH).
🔍 What the Script Draws
Session (UTC‑4 EST) Default Color / Style Typical Use‑Case
Early Premarket 4 – 7 AM Thick semi‑transparent orange line detect overnight retail spikes / fade plays

Automatic Daily Reset
At midnight Eastern, buffers clear and yesterday’s extremes roll into the “Prev‑Day” pair.
Zero‑Noise Design
Transparencies and line styles are tuned so you can overlay on any symbol / timeframe without drowning candles.
📈 How to Trade with It
Intraday Breakout Strategy
Mark confluence (e.g., price pushes through Western Premkt High and Yesterday’s High).
Wait for a pullback that holds above the reclaimed band.
Enter with stop under that session line; target next band or measured‑move.
Fade / Mean‑Reversion
Pre‑market headline sends price 5 % above Early Premkt High.
Volume dries up before RTH open.
Short into exhaustion; cover near Western Premkt High or VWAP.
Gap‑Fill & Trend Days
Cash open gaps above Prev‑Day High.
If first 15‑min candle closes back inside yesterday’s range, bias shifts to downside fade.
If it holds above, treat gap as breakout and track RTH High extensions.
Pair it with volume‑profile, VWAP, or momentum oscillators for even higher‑confidence setups.

Change in State of Delivery (CISD) [SB Instant]🧠 Modified by SB | Core Logic by LuxAlgo
🔗 Licensed under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0
Change in State of Delivery (CISD) is a concept rooted in observing shifts in order flow behavior, designed to detect the first signs of trend exhaustion and potential reversal. This model tracks when the current delivery (trend) structure — bullish or bearish — is violated by an opposing force, signaling a potential change in market intent.
In simple terms:
A Bullish CISD is triggered when sellers fail to maintain control, and buyers break above a delivery line.
A Bearish CISD is triggered when buyers fail, and sellers break below a delivery line.
This version uses real-time logic, triggering alerts immediately on break, rather than waiting for candle-close confirmation — giving faster, actionable signals to precision-driven traders.
⚙️ Core Features
Detection Modes
Classic: Traditional swing-based structural break detection
Liquidity Sweep: Logic incorporating wick sweeps (liquidity grabs)
Custom Parameters
Swing Length: Number of candles used to identify swing points
Minimum CISD Duration: Minimum length required for valid delivery phase
Maximum Swing Validity: How long the structure remains valid for potential breaks
Visual Options
Label and line styling options
Solid line = Initial break of delivery structure
Dashed line = Continuation break in the same trend direction
This allows you to visually differentiate a new reversal vs. a continuation of the existing trend.
🚨 Built-in Alerts
Bullish CISD Detected (Instant)
Bearish CISD Detected (Instant)
These alerts fire immediately when structure is broken, offering early confirmation for aggressive or reactive trade setups.
🔔 IMPORTANT:
If an alert triggers but the delivery line is not present, wait for the price to form the CISD label again and manually mark the price level using a horizontal ray. This ensures you are trading from a clearly defined structure.
🕒 Recommended Timeframes
✅ Use 30-Minute or 4-Hour charts to identify high-confidence CISD zones
🎯 Then drop to the 1-Minute or 5-Minute chart for precise entry execution
This top-down approach aligns higher timeframe narrative with lower timeframe entry triggers, increasing your edge in both timing and context.
🧠 How to Use CISD Effectively
Bullish Scenario:
Watch for breaks above bearish delivery structures, especially if confirmed with:
Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
The Strat 2-2 reversal
MSS (Market Structure Shift)
Bearish Scenario:
Look for breaks below bullish delivery setups in alignment with:
BOS (Break of Structure)
The Strat 3-1-2
Bearish liquidity sweeps
Key Tip:
Solid line = Initial CISD (new shift)
Dashed line = Continuation of current trend
This visual distinction helps you determine when a market is shifting vs. extending.

ChopFlow ATR Scalp StrategyA lean, high-velocity scalp framework for NQ and other futures that blends trend clarity, volume confirmation, and adaptive exits to give you precise, actionable signals—no cluttered bands or lagging indicators.
⸻
🔍 Overview
This strategy locks onto rapid intraday moves by:
• Filtering for directional momentum with the Choppiness Index (CI)
• Confirming conviction via On-Balance Volume (OBV) against its moving average
• Automatically sizing stops and targets with a multiple of the Average True Range (ATR)
It’s designed for scalp traders who need clean, timely entries without wading through choppy noise.
⸻
⚙️ Key Features & Inputs
1. ATR Length & Multiplier
• Controls exit distances based on current volatility.
2. Choppiness Length & Threshold
• Measures trend strength; only fires when the market isn’t “stuck in the mud.”
3. OBV SMA Length
• Smoothes volume flow to confirm genuine buying or selling pressure.
4. Custom Session Hours
• Avoid overnight gaps or low-liquidity periods.
All inputs are exposed for rapid tuning to your preferred scalp cadence.
🚀 How It Works
1. Long Entry triggers when:
• CI < threshold (strong trend)
• OBV > its SMA (positive volume flow)
• You’re within the defined session
2. Short Entry mirrors the above (CI < threshold, OBV < SMA)
3. Exit uses ATR × multiplier for both stop-loss and take-profit
⸻
🎯 Usage Tips
• Start with defaults (ATR 14, multiplier 1.5; CI 14, threshold 60; OBV SMA 10).
• Monitor signal frequency, then tighten/loosen CI or OBV look-back as needed.
• Pair with a fast MA crossover or price-action trigger if you want even sharper timing.
• Backtest across different sessions (early open vs. power hours) to find your edge.

Gaussian Channel StrategyGaussian Channel Strategy — User Guide
1. Concept
This strategy builds trades around the Gaussian Channel. Based on Pine Script v4 indicator originally published by Donovan Wall. With rework to v6 Pine Script and adding entry and exit functions.
The channel consists of three dynamic lines:
Line Formula Purpose
Filter (middle) N-pole Gaussian filter applied to price Market "equilibrium"
High Band Filter + (Filtered TR × mult) Dynamic upper envelope
Low Band Filter − (Filtered TR × mult) Dynamic lower envelope
A position is opened when price crosses a user-selected line in a user-selected direction.
When the smoothed True Range (Filtered TR) becomes negative, the raw bands can flip (High drops below Low).
The strategy automatically reorders them so the upper band is always above the lower band.
Visual colors still flip, but signals stay correct.
2. Entry Logic
Choose a signal line for longs and/or shorts: Filter, Upper band, or Lower band.
Choose a cross direction (Cross Up or Cross Down).
A signal remains valid for Lookback bars after the actual cross, as long as price is still on the required side of the line.
When the opposite signal appears, the current position is closed or reversed depending on Reverse on opposite.
3. Parameters
Group Setting Meaning
Source & Filter Source Price series used (close, hlc3, etc.)
Poles (N) Number of Gaussian filter poles (1-9). More poles ⇒ smoother but laggier
Sampling Period Main period length of the channel
Filtered TR Multiplier Width of the bands in fractions of smoothed True Range
Reduced Lag Mode Adds a lag-compensation term (faster but noisier)
Fast Response Mode Blends 1-pole & N-pole outputs for quicker turns
Signals Long → signal line / Short → signal line Which line generates signals
Long when price / Short when price Direction of the cross
Lookback bars for late entry Bars after the cross that still allow an entry
Trading Enable LONG/SHORT-side trades Turn each side on/off
On opposite signal: reverse True: reverse -- False: flat
Misc Start trading date Ignores signals before this timestamp (back-test focus)
4. Quick Start
Add the strategy to a chart. Default: hlc3, N = 4, Period = 144.
Select your signal lines & directions.
Example: trend trading – Long: Filter + Cross Up, Short: Filter + Cross Down.
Disable either side if you want long-only or short-only.
Tune Lookback (e.g. 3) to catch gaps and strong impulses.
Run Strategy Tester, optimise period / multiplier / stops (add strategy.exit blocks if needed).
When satisfied, connect alerts via TradingView webhooks or use the builtin broker panel.
5. Notes
Commission & slippage are not preset – adjust them in Properties → Commission & Slippage.
Works on any market and timeframe, but you should retune Sampling Period and Multiplier for each symbol.
No stop-loss / take-profit is included by default – feel free to add with strategy.exit.
Start trading date lets you back-test only recent history (e.g. last two years).
