Setup 9/13 Lite — Exhaustion & Reference LevelsWhat it is
A clean, lightweight tool that implements the classic 1–9 setup progression, to-13 exhaustion signal, and bar-#1 reference levels. Built for clarity with minimal chart clutter.
How it works
Setup (1–9):
• Buy side counts bars where Close < Close .
• Sell side counts bars where Close > Close .
• Counter resets on an opposite condition.
• On completion, a triangle marker appears (Buy 9 below bar, Sell 9 above bar).
Reference levels (from bar #1 of a completed setup):
• After a completed Buy setup, draw a horizontal line from the Low of bar #1.
• After a completed Sell setup, draw a horizontal line from the High of bar #1.
• Lines extend to the right and update on new completed setups.
Exhaustion (…to 13):
• Starts on the bar after a completed 9.
• Buy side: increments when Close ≤ Low (or < if “Strict” is on).
• Sell side: increments when Close ≥ High (or > if “Strict” is on).
• Stops when 13 is reached (single circle marker) or when a new opposite 9 appears.
Strict comparisons:
Toggle between strict (<, >) and non-strict (≤, ≥) rules for both parts.
Header panel:
A compact top-right table shows live Setup and Exhaustion counts.
Inputs

Visual guide
Green triangle below bar = Buy Setup 9
Red triangle above bar = Sell Setup 9
Green circle below bar = Buy Exhaustion 13
Red circle above bar = Sell Exhaustion 13
Green/Red horizontal line = Reference level from bar #1 of the last completed setup
Alerts
Buy Setup 9 completed
Sell Setup 9 completed
Buy Exhaustion reached 13
Sell Exhaustion reached 13
Tip: for fewer false pings, set alerts to “Once per bar close.”
Notes
Works on any symbol/timeframe; higher liquidity improves readings. These signals indicate potential exhaustion/context, not a standalone trading system—combine with trend filters, S/R, and risk management.

Pivot and Wick Boxes with Break Signals v2█ OVERVIEW
The "Pivot and Wick Boxes with Break Signals v2" is an advanced Pine Script® technical analysis tool that identifies pivot points (highs and lows) on the chart and draws customizable boxes based on the wicks of pivot candles. It is ideal for traders using price action strategies, helping to identify key support and resistance levels and potential breakout trading opportunities. With flexible settings, a volume filter, and label grouping, the indicator ensures clarity and precision on the chart.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator modifies how zones are drawn, displaying boxes on the latest candle rather than extending from the zones based on pivot candle wicks. This approach prevents visual clutter on the chart, allowing simultaneous use of other indicators without sacrificing clarity.
Why are wicks important?Wicks of pivot candles indicate significant market reactions in key areas. Depending on the context, they may signal rejection, testing, or absorption of support or resistance levels. Long wicks often appear where large players are active, and the marked zones are frequently retested. The indicator enables quick identification and observation of their impact on future price movements.
█ FEATURES
Pivot Detection: Identifies pivot points (highs and lows) based on a user-defined lookback period (Pivot Length), with options to display boxes for high and low pivot candle wicks separately.
Customizable Boxes: Draws boxes based on pivot candle wicks with adjustable border colors, background gradients, border styles (solid, dashed, dotted), and border widths.
Breakout Signals: Generates buy (green upward triangle) and sell (red downward triangle) signals when the price breaks through a pivot and the candle closes on the opposite side, indicating potential trend continuation. If the price approaches a pivot zone but fails to break it, this may suggest a potential trend reversal or the end of a correction.
Volume Filter: Optional volume-based signal filter that requires breakouts to have a volume exceeding a user-defined multiplier of the average volume over a specified period. Note: the volume filter will not work on markets where volume data is unavailable.
Label Grouping: Automatically groups overlapping pivot labels to avoid chart clutter, displaying only key price levels.
█ HOW TO USE
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to your TradingView chart via the Pine Editor or Indicators menu.
Configure Settings:
Pivot Settings: Adjust Pivot Length to change the sensitivity of pivot detection—the value represents the number of candles, which equals the delay in displaying the pivot. Larger values generate fewer pivots, but they are generally more significant. Set Max High Pivot Boxes and Max Low Pivot Boxes to control the number of displayed boxes.
Signal Settings: Enable Use Volume Filter for Signals to require higher volume for breakouts, and adjust Average Volume Multiplier and Average Volume Period. A volume multiplier of 1 means the filter allows pivots with a volume equal to or greater than the average volume over the specified period.
Box Styling: Configure border colors, background gradients, line thickness, and border styles for high and low pivot boxes.
Interpreting Signals:
Buy Signal: A green triangle below the bar indicates a breakout above a high pivot box, suggesting potential continuation of an uptrend.
Sell Signal: A red triangle above the bar indicates a breakout below a low pivot box, suggesting potential continuation of a downtrend.
Non-Breakout Zones: If the price approaches a pivot zone but fails to break it, it may indicate a potential trend reversal or the end of a correction (e.g., price rejection at a resistance level in a downtrend or a support level in an uptrend).
Overlapping Zones: If pivot zones overlap, it indicates the level has been tested multiple times, suggesting its significance in the market.
Use signals in conjunction with other technical analysis tools for confirmation.
Monitoring Levels: Use labeled pivot levels as potential support and resistance zones for trade planning.
█ APPLICATIONS
Price Action Trading: Use pivot levels as support and resistance zones. For example, in an uptrend, you can look for buying opportunities near low pivot zones (support), where price often bounces after testing the wick of a pivot candle. Combining with other indicators, such as Fibonacci levels, enhances the significance of pivot zones—if they align with Fibonacci levels and are accompanied by high volume, the zone is considered stronger.
Breakout Strategies: Trade based on breakout signals from key pivot zones. A buy signal after a breakout from a high pivot with confirmed volume may indicate continued upward movement. Using the indicator with other tools, such as moving averages or RSI, can help confirm the strength of the breakout.
Practical Approach:
The more frequently a zone is tested in a short period, the higher the risk of a breakout, as supply or demand may be exhausted.
The longer a zone holds without breaking, the more significant it becomes for the market, both psychologically and technically.
As the saying goes: “A zone is strong until it breaks—when it does, a strong move often follows.”
How to observe?
Strong bounces from a zone indicate that demand or supply remains active.
Weaker bounces or price lingering near the level may suggest the market is preparing for a breakout.
█ NOTES
Test the indicator across different timeframes and markets (stocks, forex, crypto) to optimize settings for your trading style.
The volume filter will not work on markets where volume data is unavailable. In such cases, disable the volume filter in the settings.
For best results, use on high-liquidity markets when the volume filter is enabled.
Session Levels [odnac]This indicator plots the high and low levels of the three main trading sessions—Asia, Europe, and New York—along with the previous day’s high, low, and open. Each session’s time range can be customized using a UTC offset, and the indicator automatically tracks session highs and lows as price develops.
Functions:
Plots session highs and lows for Asia, Europe, and New York.
Shows previous day’s high, low, and open as reference levels.
Session times are fully configurable with hour and minute precision, including UTC offset adjustment.
Each session level is marked with both a line and a label for clarity.
Color customization for each session and previous day levels.
Designed for intraday timeframes (1–60 minutes).
Filter Condition:
When the filter option is enabled, the indicator adjusts how levels are drawn:
A session high above the current close is displayed as a solid line with a visible label.
Once price closes above that high, the line becomes dotted and dimmed, and the label also becomes less emphasized.
Similarly, a session low below the current close is displayed as a solid line and label.
If price closes below that low, the line switches to dotted and dimmed, with the label adjusted accordingly.
This behavior highlights only the most relevant levels for the current market position while still keeping breached levels visible in a subdued style, making it easier to spot active breakout or liquidity zones.
EMA20 Cross Strategy with countertrades and signalsEMA20 Cross Strategy Documentation
Overview
The EMA20 Cross Strategy with Counter-Trades and Instant Signals is a Pine Script (version 6) trading strategy designed for the TradingView platform. It implements an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) crossover system to generate buy and sell signals, with optional trend filtering, session-based trading, instant signal processing, and visual/statistical feedback. The strategy supports counter-trades (closing opposing positions before entering new ones) and operates with a fixed trade size in EUR.
Features
EMA Crossover Mechanism:
Uses a short-term EMA (configurable length, default: 1) and a long-term EMA (default: 20) to detect crossovers.
A buy signal is generated when the short EMA crosses above the long EMA.
A sell signal is generated when the short EMA crosses below the long EMA.
Instant Signals:
If enabled (useInstantSignals), signals are based on the current price crossing the short EMA, rather than waiting for the candle close.
This allows faster trade execution but may increase sensitivity to price fluctuations.
Trend Filter:
Optionally filters trades based on the trend direction (useTrendFilter).
Long trades are allowed only when the short EMA (or price, for instant signals) is above the long EMA.
Short trades are allowed only when the short EMA (or price) is below the long EMA.
Session Filter:
Restricts trading to specific market hours (sessionStart, default: 09:00–17:00) if enabled (useSessionFilter).
Ensures trades occur only during active market sessions, reducing exposure to low-liquidity periods.
Customizable Timeframe:
The EMA calculations can use a higher timeframe (e.g., 5m, 15m, 1H, 4H, 1D, default: 1H) via request.security.
This allows the strategy to base signals on longer-term trends while operating on a shorter-term chart.
Trade Management:
Fixed trade size of €100,000 per trade (tradeAmount), with a maximum quantity cap (maxQty = 10,000) to prevent oversized trades.
Counter-trades: Closes short positions before entering a long position and vice versa.
Trades are executed with a minimum quantity of 1 to ensure valid orders.
Visualization:
EMA Lines: The short EMA is colored based on the last signal (green for buy, red for sell, gray for neutral), and the long EMA is orange.
Signal Markers: Displays buy/sell signals as arrows (triangles) above/below candles if enabled (showSignalShapes).
Background/Candle Coloring: Optionally colors the chart background or candles green (bullish) or red (bearish) based on the trend (useColoredBars).
Statistics Display:
If enabled (useStats), a label on the chart shows:
Total closed trades
Open trades
Win rate (%)
Number of winning/losing trades
Profit factor (gross profit / gross loss)
Net profit
Maximum drawdown
Configuration Inputs
EMA Short Length (emaLength): Length of the short-term EMA (default: 1).
Trend EMA Length (trendLength): Length of the long-term EMA (default: 20).
Enable Trend Filter (useTrendFilter): Toggles trend-based filtering (default: true).
Color Candles (useColoredBars): Colors candles instead of the background (default: true).
Enable Session Filter (useSessionFilter): Restricts trading to specified hours (default: false).
Trading Session (sessionStart): Defines trading hours (default: 09:00–17:00).
Show Statistics (useStats): Displays performance stats on the chart (default: true).
Show Signal Arrows (showSignalShapes): Displays buy/sell signals as arrows (default: true).
Use Instant Signals (useInstantSignals): Generates signals based on live price action (default: false).
EMA Timeframe (emaTimeframe): Timeframe for EMA calculations (options: 5m, 15m, 1H, 4H, 1D; default: 1H).
Strategy Logic
Signal Generation:
Standard Mode: Signals are based on EMA crossovers (short EMA crossing long EMA) at candle close.
Instant Mode: Signals are based on the current price crossing the short EMA, enabling faster reactions.
Trade Execution:
On a buy signal, closes any short position and opens a long position.
On a sell signal, closes any long position and opens a short position.
Position size is calculated as the minimum of €100,000 or available equity, divided by the current price, capped at 10,000 units.
Filters:
Trend Filter: Ensures trades align with the trend direction (if enabled).
Session Filter: Restricts trades to user-defined market hours (if enabled).
Visual Feedback
EMA Lines: Provide a clear view of the short and long EMAs, with the short EMA’s color reflecting the latest signal.
Signal Arrows: Large green triangles (buy) below candles or red triangles (sell) above candles for easy signal identification.
Chart Coloring: Highlights bullish (green) or bearish (red) trends via background or candle colors.
Statistics Label: Displays key performance metrics in a label above the chart for quick reference.
Usage Notes
Initial Capital: €100,000 (configurable via initial_capital).
Currency: EUR (set via currency).
Order Processing: Orders are processed at candle close (process_orders_on_close=true) unless instant signals are enabled.
Dynamic Requests: Allows dynamic timeframe adjustments for EMA calculations (dynamic_requests=true).
Platform: Designed for TradingView, compatible with any market supported by the platform (e.g., stocks, forex, crypto).
Example Use Case
Scenario: Trading on a 5-minute chart with a 1-hour EMA timeframe, trend filter enabled, and session filter set to 09:00–17:00.
Behavior: The strategy will:
Calculate EMAs on the 1-hour timeframe.
Generate buy signals when the short EMA crosses above the long EMA (and price is above the long EMA).
Generate sell signals when the short EMA crosses below the long EMA (and price is below the long EMA).
Execute trades only during 09:00–17:00.
Display green/red candles and performance stats on the chart.
Limitations
Instant Signals: May lead to more frequent signals, increasing the risk of false positives in volatile markets.
Fixed Trade Size: Does not adjust dynamically based on market conditions beyond equity and max quantity limits.
Session Filter: Simplified and may not account for complex session rules or holidays.
Statistics: Displayed on-chart, which may clutter the view in smaller charts.
Customization
Adjust emaLength and trendLength to suit different market conditions (e.g., shorter for scalping, longer for swing trading).
Toggle useInstantSignals for faster or more stable signal generation.
Modify sessionStart to align with specific market hours.
Disable useStats or showSignalShapes for a cleaner chart.
This strategy is versatile for both manual and automated trading, offering flexibility for various markets and trading styles while providing clear visual and statistical feedback.
RB — Rejection Blocks (Price Structure)This indicator detects and visualizes Rejection Blocks (RBs) using pure price action logic.
A bullish RB occurs when a down candle forms a lower low than both its neighbors. A bearish RB occurs when an up candle forms a higher high than both its neighbors.
Validated RBs are displayed as boxes, optional lines, or labels. Blocks are automatically removed when invalidated (price closes through them), keeping the chart uncluttered and focused.
How to use
• Apply on any timeframe, from intraday to higher timeframes.
• Watch how price reacts when revisiting RB zones.
• Treat these zones as contextual areas, not entry signals.
• Combine with your own trading methods for confirmation.
Originality
Unlike generic support/resistance tools, this indicator isolates a specific structural pattern (rejection blocks) and renders it visually on the chart. This selective focus allows traders to study structural reactions with more clarity and precision.
⚠️ Disclaimer: This is not a trading system or a signal provider. It is a visual analysis tool designed for structural and educational purposes.
Stacey Burke Signal Day LTE“Previously published as ‘Day Zero Fakeout Detector MTF’”
Stacey Burke Signal Day LTE
Automatic detection of Day Zero, Inside Days, and Outside Days for Stacey Burke’s intraday playbook
🔎 Stacey Burke’s Signal Days
This indicator highlights the key daily patterns that often lead to high-probability intraday setups in Stacey Burke’s methodology:
1️⃣ Day Zero
The reset days within a 3-day cycle (e.g. breakout → continuation → exhaustion/reversal).
Can mark the beginning of a new directional phase.
Trades back inside the prior range after a Peak Formation High (PFH) or Peak Formation Low (PFL).
Bias: Look for measured parabolic session moves. When combined with trend following indicators, these signal days can be very powerful.
2️⃣ Inside Day
A day where the entire range is contained within the prior day’s range.
Signals consolidation and energy build-up.
Often leads to explosive breakouts in the next session.
Bias: Trade breakouts of the inside day’s high/low or breakout reversal in the session at key timings in the direction of higher timeframe bias. When combined with trend following indicators, these signal days can be very powerful.
3️⃣ Outside Day (Engulfing Day)
`
A day where the range is larger than the prior day’s range, engulfing both high and low.
Marks trapped traders and fakeouts on both sides.
Often precedes strong continuations or sharp reversals from outside of the ranges.
Bias: Align trades with the true continuation move. When combined with trend following indicators, these signal days can be very powerful.
📌 How They Work Together
Day Zero → Signals the new cycle after PFH/PFL.
Inside Day → Signals compression → expect breakout setups.
Outside Day → Signals exhaustion/fakeouts → expect reversals or continuations.
Together, they give traders a clear daily roadmap for where liquidity sits and when to expect the highest-probability setups.
✅ Example in Practice
Market rallies for 3 days → PFH forms → Day Zero short bias.
Next day prints an Inside Day → watch for breakout continuation short, and breakout reversals.
Later, an Outside Day traps both longs and shorts → the following session offers a clean intraday reversal or continuation trade in line with the underlying MTF trend/bias.
⚙️ Features of This Indicator
Automatic detection of Day Zero, Inside Days, and Outside Days
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) support for cycle alignment

Remember: This is a technical analysis tool, not a money-printing machine. Successful trading requires discipline, risk management, and continuous learning. The displayed statistics are historical and don't guarantee future performance.
News Volatility Bracketing StrategyThis is a news-volatility bracketing strategy. Five seconds before a scheduled release, the strategy brackets price with a buy-stop above and a sell-stop below (OCO), then converts the untouched side into nothing while the filled side runs with a 1:1 TP/SL set the same distance from entry. Distances are configurable in USD or %, so it scales to the instrument and can run on 1-second data (or higher TF with bar-magnifier). The edge it’s trying to capture is the immediate, one-directional burst and liquidity vacuum that often follows market-moving news—entering on momentum rather than predicting direction. Primary risks are slippage/spread widening and whipsaws right after the print, which can trigger an entry then snap back to the stop.
Volume Profile + Pivot Levels [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
Volume Profile + Pivot Levels combines a rolling volume profile with price pivots to surface the most meaningful levels in your selected lookback window. It builds a left-side profile from traded volume, highlights the session’s Point of Control (PoC) , and then filters pivot highs/lows so only those aligned with significant profile volume are promoted to chart levels. Each promoted level extends forward until price retests it—so your chart stays focused on levels that actually matter.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Rolling Volume Profile (Period & Resolution)
Calculates a profile over the last Period bars (default 200). The profile is discretized into Volume Profile Resolution bins (default 50) between the highest high and lowest low inside the window. Each bin accumulates traded volume and is drawn as a smooth left-side polyline for compact, lightweight rendering.
HL = array.new()
// collect highs/lows over 'start' bars to define profile range
for i = 0 to start - 1
HL.push(high ), HL.push(low )
H = HL.max(), L = HL.min()
bin_size = (H - L) / bins
// accumulate per-bin volume
for i = 0 to bins - 1
for j = 0 to start - 1
if close >= (L + bin_sizei) - bin_size and close < (L + bin_size*(i+1)) + bin_size
Bins += volume
Delta-Aware Coloring
The script tracks up-minus-down volume across all period to compute a net Delta . The profile, PoC line, and PoC label adopt a teal tone when net positive, and maroon when net negative—an immediate read on buyer/seller dominance inside the window.
Point of Control (PoC) + Volume Label
Automatically marks the highest-volume bin as the PoC . A horizontal PoC line extends to the last bar, and a label shows the absolute volume at the PoC. Toggle visibility via PoC input.
Pivot Detection with Volume Filter
Identifies raw pivots using Length (default 10) on both sides of the bar. Each candidate pivot is then validated against the profile: only pivots that land within their bin and meet or exceed the Filter % threshold (percentage of PoC volume) are promoted to chart levels. This removes weak, low-participation pivots.
// pivot promotion when volume% >= pivotFilter
if abs(mid - p.value) <= bin_size and volPercent >= pivotFilter
// draw labeled pivot level
line.new(p.index - pivotLength, p.value, p.index + pivotLength, p.value, width = 2)
Forward-Extending, Self-Stopping Levels
Promoted pivot levels extend forward as dotted rays. As soon as price intersects a level (high/low straddles it), that level stops extending—so your chart doesn’t clutter with stale zones.
Concise Level Labels (Volume + %)
Each promoted pivot prints a compact label at the pivot bar with its bin’s absolute volume and percentage of PoC volume (ordering flips for highs vs. lows for quick read).
Lightweight Visuals
The volume profile is rendered as a smooth polyline rather than dozens of boxes, keeping charts responsive even at higher resolutions.
⯁ SETTINGS
Volume Profile → Period : Lookback window used to compute the profile (max 500).
Volume Profile → Resolution : Number of bins; higher = finer structure.
Volume Profile → PoC : Toggle PoC line and volume label.
Pivots → Display : Show/hide volume-validated pivot levels.
Pivots → Length : Pivot detection left/right bars.
Pivots → Filter % 0–100 : Minimum bin strength (as % of PoC) required to promote a pivot level.
⯁ USAGE
Read PoC direction/color for a quick net-flow bias within your window.
Prioritize promoted pivot levels —they’re backed by meaningful participation.
Watch for first retests of promoted levels; the line will stop extending once tested.
Adjust Period / Resolution to match your timeframe (scalps → higher resolution, shorter period; swings → lower resolution, longer period).
Tighten or loosen Filter % to control how selective the level promotion is.
⯁ WHY IT’S UNIQUE
Instead of plotting every pivot or every profile bar, this tool cross-checks pivots against the profile’s internal volume weighting . You only see levels where price structure and liquidity overlap—clean, data-driven levels that self-retire after interaction, so you can focus on what the market actually defends.
Maiko Range Scalper (Sideways BB + RSI) – v4 cleanPurpose
It’s a range scalping strategy for crypto. It tries to take small, repeatable trades inside a sideways market: buy near the bottom of the range, sell near the middle/top (and the reverse for shorts).
Core idea (two timeframes)
Define the trading range on a higher timeframe (HTF)
You choose the HTF (e.g., 15m or 1h).
The script finds the highest high and lowest low over a lookback window (e.g., last 96 HTF candles) → these become HTF Resistance and HTF Support.
It also calculates the midline (average of support/resistance).
Trade signals on your lower timeframe (LTF)
You run the strategy on a fast chart (e.g., 1m or 5m).
Entries are only allowed inside the HTF range.
Entry logic (mean reversion)
Indicators on the LTF:
Bollinger Bands (length & std dev configurable).
RSI (length & thresholds configurable).
Optional VWAP proximity filter (price must be within X% of VWAP).
Long setup:
Price touches/under-cuts the lower Bollinger band AND RSI ≤ threshold (default 30) AND price is inside the HTF range (and passes VWAP filter if enabled).
Short setup:
Price touches/exceeds the upper Bollinger band AND RSI ≥ threshold (default 70) AND price is inside the HTF range (and passes VWAP filter if enabled).
Exits and risk
Stop-loss: placed just outside the HTF range with a configurable buffer %:
Long SL = HTF Support × (1 − buffer).
Short SL = HTF Resistance × (1 + buffer).
Take-profit (selectable):
Mid band (the Bollinger basis) → conservative, faster exits.
Opposite band / HTF boundary → more aggressive, higher RR but more give-backs.
Position sizing
A simple cap: maximum position size = percent of account equity (e.g., 20%).
The script calculates quantity from that cap and current price.
Plots you’ll see on the chart
HTF Resistance (red) and HTF Support (green) via plot().
HTF Midline (gray dashed) drawn with a line.new() object (because plot() cannot do dashed).
Bollinger basis/upper/lower on the LTF.
Optional VWAP line (only shown if you enable the filter).
Signal markers (green triangle up for Long setups, red triangle down for Short setups).
Alerts
Two alertconditions:
“Long Setup” – when a long entry condition appears.
“Short Setup” – when a short entry condition appears.
Create alerts from these to get notified in real time.
How to use it (quick start)
Add to a 1m or 5m chart of a liquid coin (BTC, ETH, SOL).
Set HTF timeframe (start with 1h) and lookback (e.g., 96 = ~4 days on 1h).
Keep default Bollinger/RSI first; tune later.
Choose TP mode:
“Mid band” for quick scalps.
“Opposite band/Range” if the range is very clean and you want bigger targets.
Set SL buffer (0.15–0.30% is common; adjust for volatility).
Set Max position % to control size (e.g., 20%).
(Optional) Enable VWAP filter to skip stretched moves.
When it works best
Clearly sideways markets with visible support/resistance on the HTF.
High-liquidity pairs where spreads/fees are small relative to your scalp target.
Limitations & safety notes
True breakouts will invalidate mean-reversion logic—your SL outside the range is there to cut losses fast.
Fees can eat into small scalps—prefer limit orders, rebates, and liquid pairs.
Backtest results vary by exchange data; always forward-test on small size.
If you want, I can:
Add an ATR-based stop/target option.
Provide a study-only version (signals/alerts, no trading engine).
Pre-set risk to your €5,000 plan (e.g., ~0.5% max loss/trade) with calculated qty.

Cada bloque puede activarse o desactivarse de forma independiente y cuenta con su propio color ajustable, lo que permite construir mapas visuales claros para estrategias basadas en horario, solapamientos y micro-estructuras de mercado.
El panel de inputs incluye la opción “Activate High/Low View”. Cuando está activada, el indicador calcula de manera incremental el mínimo y máximo de cada sub-sesión y sombrea el área entre ambos con fill, proporcionando una referencia inmediata del rango intrasesión (útil para medir compresión/expansión y posibles rompimientos). Cuando está desactivada, emplea un simple bgcolor por bloque, ideal para traders que prefieren un gráfico más limpio y solo desean distinguir visualmente los tramos horarios.
La lógica central utiliza dos funciones auxiliares: is_session(sess), que detecta si la vela actual pertenece a un tramo horario concreto, e is_newbar(sess), que determina el inicio de una nueva barra de referencia según la resolución elegida (D, W o M). Gracias a esta combinación, en cada sub-sesión el indicador reinicia sus contadores de alto y bajo al comenzar el período y los actualiza vela a vela mientras el bloque siga activo. Este enfoque evita mezclas de datos entre sesiones y asegura que el rango que se muestra corresponda estrictamente al segmento horario configurado.
Los horarios por defecto están pensados para Forex y contemplan casos que cruzan medianoche (por ejemplo, Tokio 2 y Sídney). Pine Script admite rangos como 2200-0200; no obstante, si tu bróker o la zona horaria del gráfico generan un sombreado parcial, basta con dividir el tramo en dos: 2200-2359 y 0000-0200. Asimismo, cada input.session incluye el patrón :1234567 para habilitar los siete días; puedes restringir días según tu operativa.
En cuanto al uso práctico, el indicador facilita identificar: (1) la estructura del rango por sub-sesión (útil para estrategias de breakout/mean-reversion), (2) los solapamientos entre Londres y New York, donde suele concentrarse la liquidez, y (3) períodos de menor volatilidad (tramos tardíos de Asia o previos a noticias). El color independiente por bloque te permite codificar visualmente la importancia o tu plan de trading (por ejemplo, tonos más intensos en ventanas de alta probabilidad).
Finalmente, su diseño modular hace sencilla la personalización: puedes ajustar colores, activar/desactivar bloques, cambiar horarios y modificar la resolución de reseteo del rango. Como posible mejora, se pueden añadir alertas de ruptura de máximos/mínimos de sub-sesión o etiquetas con la altura del rango (pips) al cierre. Este indicador no sustituye el juicio del trader ni constituye recomendación financiera, pero ofrece una base visual robusta para integrar el factor tiempo en la toma de decisiones.
This sessions indicator is built for intraday traders who want a precise, time-aware view of market activity and typical volatility patterns across the day. Written in Pine Script v5 and optimized for the “America/New_York” timezone, it divides the trading day into configurable sub-sessions and highlights their price ranges in real time. Specifically, it provides three blocks for New York (NY1, NY2, NY3), two for London (LON1, LON2), two for Tokyo (TKO1, TKO2), and keeps Sydney as an optional session. Each block can be enabled or disabled independently and comes with its own adjustable color, letting you build clear visual maps for time-based strategies, overlaps, and microstructure nuances.
In the inputs panel you’ll find the “Activate High/Low View” option. When enabled, the indicator incrementally computes each sub-session’s low and high and shades the area between them with fill, giving you an immediate reference to the intra-session range (useful for gauging compression/expansion and potential breakouts). When disabled, it switches to a clean bgcolor background by block—ideal if you prefer a minimal chart and simply want to distinguish time windows at a glance.
The core logic relies on two helper functions: is_session(sess), which detects whether the current bar falls within a given time window, and is_newbar(sess), which identifies the start of a new reference bar according to your chosen reset resolution (D, W, or M). With this combination, each sub-session resets its high/low at the beginning of the period and updates them bar by bar while the block remains active. This prevents cross-contamination between sessions and ensures the range you see belongs strictly to the configured segment.
Default hours are suited to Forex and include segments that cross midnight (e.g., Tokyo 2 and Sydney). Pine Script supports ranges like 2200-0200; however, if your broker or chart timezone causes partial shading, simply split the segment into two: 2200-2359 and 0000-0200. Each input.session uses the :1234567 suffix to enable all seven days; you can easily restrict days to match your plan.
Practically speaking, the indicator helps you identify: (1) range structure by sub-session (great for breakout or mean-reversion frameworks), (2) overlaps between London and New York, where liquidity and directional moves often concentrate, and (3) lower-volatility windows (late Asia or pre-news lulls). Independent colors per block let you visually encode priority or your trading plan (for example, richer tones in high-probability windows).
Thanks to its modular design, customization is straightforward: adjust colors, toggle blocks, change hours, and tweak the range-reset resolution to suit your routine. As a natural extension, you can add alerts for sub-session high/low breakouts or labels that display the range height (in pips) at session close. While no indicator replaces trader judgment or constitutes financial advice, this tool offers a robust visual foundation for incorporating the time factor directly into your decision-making, helping you contextualize price action within the rhythm of global trading sessions.

Persistence# Persistence
## What it does
Measures **price change persistence**, defined as the percentage of bars within a lookback window that closed higher than the prior close. A high value means the instrument has been closing up frequently, which can indicate durable momentum. This mirrors Stockbee’s idea: *select stocks with high price change persistence*, and then combine **momentum plus persistence**.
## Can be used for scanning in PineScreener
## Calculation
* `isUp` is true when `close > close `.
* `countUp` counts true instances over the last `len` bars.
* `pctUp = 100 * countUp / len`, bounded between 0 and 100.
* A 50% level is a natural baseline. Above 50% suggests more up closes than down closes in the window.
## Inputs
* **Lookback bars (`len`)**: default 252 for roughly one trading year on a daily chart. On weekly charts use something like 52, on monthly charts use 12.
## How to use
1. **Screen for persistence**
Sort a watchlist by the plotted value, higher is better. Many momentum traders start looking above 58 to 65 percent, then layer a trend filter.
2. **Combine with momentum**
Examples, pick tickers with:
* `pctUp > 60`, and price above a rising EMA50 or EMA100.
* `pctUp rising` and weekly ROC positive.
3. **Switch timeframe to change the horizon**
* Daily chart with `len = 252` approximates one year.
* Weekly chart with `len = 52` approximates one year.
* Monthly chart with `len = 12` approximates one year.
## TC2000 equivalence
Stockbee’s TC2000 expression:
```
CountTrue(c > c1, 252)
```
## Interpretation guide
* **70 to 90**: very strong persistence; often trend leaders, check for extensions and risk controls.
* **60 to 70**: constructive persistence; good hunting ground for swing setups that also pass momentum filters.
* **50**: neutral baseline; around random up vs down frequency.
* **Below 50**: persistent weakness; consider only for mean reversion or short strategies.
## Practical tips
* **Event effects**: ex-dividend gaps can reduce persistence on high yield names. Earnings gaps can swing the value sharply.
* **Survivorship bias**: when backtesting on curated lists, persistence can look cleaner than in live scans.
* **Liquidity**: thin names may show noisy persistence due to erratic prints.
## Reference to Stockbee
* “One way to select stocks for swing trading is to find those with high price change persistence.”
* “Persistence can be calculated on a daily, monthly, or weekly timeframe.”
* TC2000 function: `CountTrue(c > c1, 252)`
* Example noted in the tweet: CVNA had very high one-year price persistence at the time of that post.
* Takeaway: **look for momentum plus persistence**, not persistence alone.
Whale Fractal Levels (V1.0)What it does
This indicator plots Fractal Levels (Bill Williams pivots) as horizontal lines and prints clean signals for:
BO+ / BO− → Breakouts through the latest fractal high/low
SW↑ / SW↓ → Liquidity sweeps (wick pierces, close rejects)
RE+ / RE− → Retests of the broken level after a confirmed breakout
Cyan = support (fractal lows).
Lilac = resistance (fractal highs).
How it works
Detects fractals with Left/Right = lr. A pivot is confirmed after lr bars on the right → the level itself doesn’t repaint.
Each confirmed fractal spawns a horizontal line extended to the right. You can limit how many lines stay on chart and auto-expire old ones.
Signals reference the most recent fractal high/low only and are edge-triggered (crossover/crossunder) with a cooldown so you don’t get a marker on every bar near the level.
A small state machine remembers the last breakout to validate the next retest.
Inputs (Settings)
Fractals
Left/Right (BW fractal) — Sensitivity of pivots (lower = more reactive, higher = cleaner).
MAX number of levels to display — Keep only the most recent N lines.
Level lifetime (bars) — Auto-delete lines after N bars to declutter.
Signals
Cooldown between signals (bars) — Minimum spacing between markers (anti-spam).
Show Breakouts (BO±) — Toggle breakout markers.
Show Sweeps (SW↑/SW↓) — Toggle sweep markers.
Show Retests (RE±) — Toggle retest markers.

S&R ZonesThis indicator automatically detects swing highs and swing lows on the chart using a 3-bar swing structure. Once a swing point is confirmed, it evaluates the price movement and body size of subsequent candles. If the movement meets a volume-based range condition (2.5× the average body size of the last 5 candles), the indicator creates a zone around that swing.
Swing High Zones: Drawn from the highest price of the swing cluster down to its midpoint.
Swing Low Zones: Drawn from the lowest price of the swing cluster up to its midpoint.
These zones act as dynamic support and resistance levels and remain on the chart until they are either:
Broken (price closes beyond the zone), or
Expired (more than 200 bars old).
Zones are color-coded for clarity:
🔴 Red shaded areas = Swing High resistance zones.
🟢 Green shaded areas = Swing Low support zones.
This makes the indicator useful for identifying high-probability reversal areas, liquidity zones, and supply/demand imbalances that persist until invalidated.

Institutional Session VWAP Bands (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Institutional Session VWAP Bands (Zeiierman) plots a clean, session-aware VWAP that restarts at the “True Close” (end of the first trading hour) for each session you enable (Sydney, Tokyo, London, New York). From that anchor, the script computes a classic volume-weighted average price plus optional standard-deviation bands to frame session fair value and dispersion.
By aligning VWAP to when institutional flows settle (the first hour), you get a reference that matches real execution behavior, yielding more credible pullbacks, retests, and mean-reversion reads inside each session.
█ How It Works
⚪ Session Detection
You choose the sessions (on/off), their UTC-aligned time windows, and colors. The script detects when each session is active on your chart timeframe.
⚪ True-Close Anchoring
At session open the indicator waits. When the first hour completes, it flips the anchor on and starts a fresh VWAP for that session, mirroring how many desks treat the first hour as the real close for the prior day’s positioning.
⚪ VWAP Core
From the true-close anchor, VWAP is calculated in the standard way: cumulative (price × volume) / cumulative volume using your chosen price source (default hlc3).
⚪ VWAP Bands (σ)
Upper/Lower bands are built using a running standard deviation of the price source since the anchor. You control the σ multiplier and line width, and you can optionally fill between the bands.
█ Why Sessions + True-Close Anchoring
⚪ Institutional Timing Matters
A new anchor at the first-hour close reflects where real flows have settled, giving you a session fair-value line that aligns with how many funds evaluate prices intraday.
⚪ Cleaner Session Reads
Because VWAP and σ-bands restart each session, your retests, squeezes, and mean-reversion signals are based on today’s order-flow context, not yesterday’s inertia.
Result: a session-true fair-value with dispersion bands that stay close to the action, improving the quality of pullback entries and risk framing.
█ How to Use
⚪ Session Fair-Value Guide
Treat VWAP as the magnet for intraday value. Impulsive moves away from VWAP that fold back often present retest opportunities.
⚪ σ-Band Reversion & Breaks
Reversion: Tests beyond the upper/lower band that snap back inside can flag exhaustion.
Trend: Price riding the VWAP band in a strong trend
⚪ Session Handoffs
When one session hands to the next, watch how price behaves around the new session’s VWAP Bands after its anchor triggers. Continuation through the new VWAP vs. rejection often sets the tone.
█ Settings
UTC: Choose the timezone used to evaluate session windows (e.g., UTC+2).
Sessions (Sydney, Tokyo, London, New York): Toggle visibility and define each HHMM-HHMM window.
VWAP Price: Source for weighting.
Band Multiplier (σ): Standard deviation multiplier.

Same-Direction Candles (Two Symbols)Same-Direction Candles (Two Symbols)
What it does
Highlights bars on your chart when two symbols print the same candle direction on the chosen timeframe:
Both Bullish → one color
Both Bearish → another color
Great for spotting synchronous moves (e.g., NQ & ES, QQQ & SPY), or confirming risk-on/risk-off with an inverse asset (e.g., NQ vs DXY with inversion).
How it works
For each bar, the script checks whether close > open (bullish), close < open (bearish), or equal (doji) for:
The chart’s symbol
A second symbol pulled via request.security() (optionally on a different timeframe)
If both symbols are bullish, it paints Bull color; if both are bearish, it paints Bear color. Dojis can be ignored.
Inputs
Second symbol: Ticker to compare (e.g., CME_MINI:ES1!, NASDAQ:QQQ, TVC:DXY).
Second symbol timeframe: Leave blank to use the chart’s TF, or set a specific one (e.g., 5, 15, D).
Invert second symbol direction?: Flips the second symbol’s candle direction (useful for inversely related assets like DXY vs indices).
Ignore doji candles: Skip highlights when either candle is neutral (open == close).
Coloring options: Toggle bar coloring and/or background shading; pick colors; set background transparency.
Alerts
Three alert conditions:
Both Bullish
Both Bearish
Both Same Direction (bullish or bearish)
Create alerts from the Add Alert dialog after adding the script.
Use cases
Index confluence: NQ & ES moving in lockstep
ETF confirmation: QQQ & SPY agreement
FX/Index risk signals: Invert DXY against NQ/ES to see when equity strength aligns with dollar weakness
Tips
For mixed timeframes (e.g., chart on 1m, ES on 5m), set Second symbol timeframe to the higher TF to reduce noise.
Keep Ignore dojis on for cleaner signals.
Combine with your own entry rules (structure, FVGs, liquidity sweeps).
Notes
Works on any symbol/timeframe supported by TradingView.
Overlay script; no strategy/entries/exits are executed.
Past performance ≠ future results; for education only.
Version: 1.0 – initial release (bar/background highlights, doji filter, inversion, multi-TF support, alerts).
BTC CME Gap – detector & single signals# BTC CME Gap — Detector & Single Signals (Pine v5)
**What it does**
This indicator finds the **weekend gap** on **CME Bitcoin futures** and turns it into a clean, tradable object:
* Draws a **gap zone** (Friday close ↔ Monday open) as a right-extending box.
* Fires **one-time signals** per gap:
* **ENTER** – first touch of the gap zone by price.
* **FILL** – gap is considered filled when price tags **Friday’s close**.
It works on any BTC chart (spot or futures). The gap itself is calculated from **CME\:BTC1!** daily data.
---
## How it works
1. Pulls **daily** `open`/`close` from `CME:BTC1!` (`request.security`, no lookahead).
2. On **Monday**, compares Monday **open** with previous **Friday close**:
* If different → a **gap** exists.
3. Defines the zone:
* `gapTop = max(MonOpen, FriClose)`
* `gapBot = min(MonOpen, FriClose)`
4. Renders a box + boundary lines, **extending right** until price action resolves it.
5. Signals:
* **ENTER**: the first bar that **enters** the gap zone.
* **FILL**: first bar that **touches Friday close** (gap completion).
6. Each new Monday gap **replaces** the previous box and signals.
---
## Inputs
* **CME symbol** (default `CME:BTC1!`)
* **Gap timeframe** (default `D`)
* **Colors** for the box and edges
---
## Plot & Signals
* **Box** = visual gap zone (transparent fill, outlined).
* **ENTER** = triangle up below bar.
* **FILL** = triangle down above bar.
* Optional label prints **Top / Bottom / Fill** levels.
---
## Notes on behavior
* Uses `barmerge.lookahead_off` and daily aggregation, so the gap definition **does not repaint** once Monday’s daily bar is confirmed.
* Signals are **single-shot** per gap (no clutter).
* Works on any chart timeframe; the gap logic always references **CME daily**.
---
## Practical use
* Track obvious **“magnets”** for mean-reversion, stop-runs, or liquidity grabs.
* Combine with your higher-timeframe bias (e.g., **1D trend filter**) and execution on **4H/1H**.
* Typical outcomes: quick Monday fill, staged fill after partial rejection, or delayed fill during later consolidation.
---
## Customization ideas
* Add `alertcondition(enterSignal, …)` / `alertcondition(fillSignal, …)` for automation.
* Gate trades with trend filters (EMA/SMA, Kernel regression, ADX) or session tools (VWAP/POC).
* Persist multiple historical gap boxes if you want to track **unfilled** gaps.
---
**Credits**: Built for BTC CME weekend gaps; minimal, publication-ready visualization with single-event signals to keep charts clean.
Price Heat Meter [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
Price Heat Meter visualizes where price sits inside its recent range and turns that into an intuitive “temperature” read. Using rolling extremes, candles fade from ❄️ aqua (cold) near the lower bound to 🔥 red (hot) near the upper bound. The tool also trails recent extreme levels, tags unusually persistent extremes with a % “heat” label, and shows a bottom gauge (0–100%) with a live arrow so you can read market heat at a glance.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Rolling Heat Map (0–100%):
The script measures where the close sits between the current Lowest Low and Highest High over the chosen Length (default 50).
Candles use a two-stage gradient: aqua → yellow (0–50%), then yellow → red (50–100%). This makes “how stretched are we?” instantly visible.
Dynamic Extremes with Time Decay:
When a new rolling High or Low is set, the script starts a faint horizontal trail at that price. Each bar that passes without a new extreme increases a counter; the line’s color gradually fades over time and fully disappears after ~100 bars, keeping the chart clean.
Persistent-Extreme Tags (Reversal Hints):
If an extreme persists for 40 bars (i.e., price hasn’t reclaimed or surpassed it), the tool stamps the original extreme pivot with its recorded Heat% at the moment the extreme formed.
• Upper extremes print a red % label (possible exhaustion/resistance context).
• Lower extremes print an aqua % label (possible exhaustion/support context).
Bottom Heat Gauge (0–100% Scale):
A compact, gradient bar renders at the bottom center showing the current Heat% with an arrow/label. ❄️ anchors the left (0%), 🔥 anchors the right (100%). The arrow adopts the same candle heat color for consistency.
Minimal Inputs, Clear Theme:
• Length (lookback window for H/L)
• Heat Color set (Cold / Mid / Hot)
The defaults give a balanced, legible gradient on most assets/timeframes.
Signal Hygiene by Design:
The meter doesn’t “call” reversals. Instead, it contextualizes price within its range and highlights the aging of extremes. That keeps it robust across regimes and assets, and ideal as a confluence layer with your existing triggers.
⯁ HOW IT WORKS (UNDER THE HOOD)
Range Model:
H = Highest(High, Length), L = Lowest(Low, Length). Heat% = 100 × (Close − L) / (H − L).
Extreme Tracking & Fade:
When High == H , we record/update the current upper extreme; same for Low == L on the lower side. If the extreme doesn’t change on the next bar, a counter increments and the plotted line’s opacity shifts along a 0→100 fade scale (visual decay).
40-Bar Persistence Labels:
On the bar after the extreme forms, the code stores the bar_index and the contemporaneous Heat% . If the extreme survives 40 bars, it places a % label at the original pivot price and index—flagging levels that were meaningfully “tested by time.”
Unified Color Logic:
Both candles and the gauge use the same two-stage gradient (Cold→Mid, then Mid→Hot), so your eye reads “heat” consistently across all elements.
⯁ USAGE
Treat >80% as “hot” and <20% as “cold” context; combine with your trigger (e.g., structure, OB, div, breakouts) instead of acting on heat alone.
Watch persistent extreme labels (40-bar marks) as reference zones for reaction or liquidity grabs.
Use the fading extreme lines as a memory map of where price last stretched—levels that slowly matter less as they decay.
Tighten Length for intraday sensitivity or increase it for swing stability.
⯁ WHY IT’S UNIQUE
Rather than another oscillator, Price Heat Meter translates simple market geometry (rolling extremes) into a readable temperature layer with time-aware extremes and a synchronized gauge . You get a continuously updated sense of stretch, persistence, and potential reversal context—without clutter or overfitting.
