Extreme Zone Volume ProfileExtreme Zone Volume Profile (EZVP)
Originality & Innovation
The Extreme Zone Volume Profile (EZVP) revolutionizes traditional volume profile analysis by applying statistical zone classification to volume distribution. Unlike standard volume profiles that display raw volume data, EZVP segments the price range into statistically meaningful zones based on percentile thresholds, allowing traders to instantly identify where volume concentration suggests strong support/resistance versus areas of potential breakout.
Technical Methodology
Core Algorithm:
Distributes volume across user-defined bins (20-200) over a lookback period
Calculates volume-weighted price levels for each bin
Applies percentile-based zone classification to the price range (not volume ranking)
Zone B (extreme zones): Outer percentile tails representing potential rejection areas
Zone A (significant zones): Secondary percentile bands indicating strong interest levels
Center Zone: Bulk trading range where most price discovery occurs
Mathematical Foundation:
The script uses price-range percentiles rather than volume percentiles. If the total price range is divided into 100%, Zone B captures the extreme price tails (default 2.5% each end ≈ 2 standard deviations), Zone A captures the next significant bands (default 14% each ≈ 1 standard deviation), leaving the center for normal distribution trading.
Key Calculations:
POC (Point of Control): Price level with maximum volume accumulation
Volume-weighted mean price: Total volume × price / total volume
Median price: Geometric center of the price range
Rightward-projected bars: Volume bars extend forward from current time to avoid historical chart clutter
Trading Applications
Zone Interpretation:
Zone B (Red/Green): Extreme price levels where volume suggests strong rejection potential. Price reaching these zones often indicates overextension and possible reversal points.
Zone A (Orange/Teal): Significant support/resistance areas with substantial volume interest. These levels often act as intermediate targets or consolidation zones.
Center (Gray): Fair value area where most trading occurs. Price tends to return to this range during normal market conditions.
Strategic Usage:
Reversal Trading: Look for rejection signals when price enters Zone B areas
Breakout Confirmation: Volume expansion beyond Zone B boundaries suggests genuine breakouts
Support/Resistance: Zone A boundaries often provide reliable entry/exit levels
Mean Reversion: Price tends to gravitate toward the volume-weighted mean and POC lines
Unique Value Proposition
EZVP addresses three key limitations of traditional volume profiles:
Visual Clarity: Standard profiles can be cluttered and difficult to interpret quickly. EZVP's color-coded zones provide instant visual feedback about price significance.
Statistical Framework: Rather than relying on subjective interpretation of volume nodes, EZVP applies objective percentile-based classification, making support/resistance identification more systematic.
Forward-Looking Display: Rightward-projecting bars keep historical price action clean while maintaining current market structure visibility.
Configuration Guide
Lookback Period (10-1000): Controls the historical depth of volume calculation. Shorter periods for intraday scalping, longer for swing trading.
Number of Bins (20-200): Resolution of volume distribution. Higher values provide more granular analysis but may create noise on lower timeframes.
Zone Percentages:
Zone B: Extreme threshold (default 2.5% = ~2σ statistical significance)
Zone A: Significant threshold (default 14% = ~1σ statistical significance)
Visual Controls: Toggle individual elements (POC, median, mean, zone lines) to customize display complexity for your trading style.
Technical Requirements
Pine Script v6 compatible
Maximum bars back: 5000 (ensures sufficient historical data)
Maximum boxes: 500 (supports high-resolution bin counts)
Maximum lines: 50 (accommodates all zone and reference lines)
This indicator synthesizes volume profile theory with statistical zone analysis, providing a quantitative framework for identifying high-probability support/resistance levels based on volume distribution patterns rather than arbitrary price levels.
Dynamic Chandelier Exit Trader [KedArc Quant])Dynamic Chandelier Exit Trader (DCET)
The Dynamic Chandelier Exit Trader (DCET) builds upon the classical Chandelier Exit indicator by combining volatility-based stop placement with risk-reward exit logic. It is designed to provide clear buy/sell flip signals, making it adaptable across multiple trading environments.
Market Suitability
The DCET is most effective under the following market conditions:
1. Trending Markets (Upward or Downward)
- Strong performance when price is in a clear directional trend.
- Buy signals align with uptrends, sell signals align with downtrends.
- Works well on stocks, forex pairs, and crypto during trending phases.
2. Breakout Environments:
- Captures moves when price breaks out of consolidations.
- ATR-based stop dynamically adjusts to volatility expansion.
- Effective for traders who like catching the first move after breakouts.
3. Sideways / Range-Bound Markets:
- DCET tends to generate more frequent flip signals in sideways conditions.
- May lead to whipsaws, but can still be used with reduced ATR length or by combining with a trend filter (e.g., moving average direction).
4. All Markets (with Adjustments):
- Works universally but requires tuning.
- In highly volatile markets (e.g., crypto), a higher ATR multiplier may reduce false signals.
- In stable, slower-moving markets (e.g., large-cap equities), smaller ATR multipliers improve responsiveness.
SMA MAD SuperTrend | OquantThe SMA MAD SuperTrend | Oquant is an trend-following indicator designed to help traders identify potential trend directions and reversals using a unique combination of a Simple Moving Average (SMA), Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD), and a SuperTrend mechanism. This script aims to provide clear visual signals for trend entries and exits, making it suitable for traders looking to capture trends.
This indicator innovatively combines the smoothing properties of an SMA with the volatility-adaptive qualities of MAD to create dynamic SuperTrend bands. Unlike traditional SuperTrend indicators that rely on Average True Range (ATR) for volatility, this script uses Mean Absolute Deviation(MAD) to measure the average absolute deviation from the mean price, providing a different perspective on price volatility. The result is a SuperTrend system that adapts to market conditions with a focus on price deviation, offering a unique tool for trend detection.
Components and Calculations
Simple Moving Average (SMA):
The SMA is a widely used indicator that calculates the average of a specified number of closing prices. It smooths price data to identify the overall trend direction. In this script, the SMA serves as the baseline for calculating dynamic upper and lower bands.
Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD):
MAD measures the average absolute deviation of the price from its mean. It quantifies volatility by calculating how far prices deviate from the mean price, offering an alternative to ATR.
SuperTrend Mechanism:
This SuperTrend indicator generates dynamic upper and lower bands around the Simple Moving Average (SMA) using mean absolute deviation as measure of volatility.
It tracks trend direction by comparing the close price to the bands:
If the price crosses above the upper band, the trend turns bullish, and the SuperTrend follows the lower band.
If the price crosses below the lower band, the trend turns bearish, and the SuperTrend follows the upper band.
The bands adjust based on their previous values, updating only when the price crosses a band or the band shifts in the correct direction, reducing false signals and ensuring stable trend detection.
How to Use the Indicator
Trend Signals:
Green Line: Indicates a bullish trend (price above the SuperTrend line).
Purple Line: Indicates a bearish trend (price below the SuperTrend line).
Bar and Candle Coloring: Bars and candles are colored green for bullish trends and purple for bearish trends, making it easy to visualize trend direction.
Filled Areas: The area between the price and the SuperTrend line is filled with transparent colors (green for bullish, purple for bearish) to highlight trend.
Inputs:
Source: Choose the price data for calculations.
SMA Length: Adjust the period for the SMA. Longer periods smooth the trend further.
MAD Length: Set the period for MAD calculation. Shorter periods make the MAD more sensitive.
Factor: Control the distance of the SuperTrend bands from the SMA. Higher values widen the bands, reducing sensitivity to price fluctuations.
Alerts:
The script includes alert conditions for trend changes:
SMA MAD SuperTrend Long: Triggered when the trend turns bullish.
SMA MAD SuperTrend Short: Triggered when the trend turns bearish.
Set up alerts in TradingView to receive notifications for these conditions.
Why Use This Script?
The SMA MAD SuperTrend | Oquant offers a fresh take on trend-following by integrating SMA as baseline and MAD for volatility measurement, providing an alternative to ATR-based SuperTrend indicators. Its clear visual signals, customizable inputs, and alert conditions make it versatile for traders of all levels.

Volatility Forecast/*==============================================================================
Volatility Forecast — Publishable Documentation
Author: @BB_9791
License: Mozilla Public License 2.0
WHAT THIS INDICATOR SHOWS
- A daily volatility estimate in percent points, called sigma_day.
- A slow volatility anchor, the 10-year EMA of sigma_day.
- A blended volatility series in percent points:
sigma_blend = (1 − p) * sigma_day + p * EMA_10y(sigma_day)
where p is the Slow weight %, default 30.
- Optional annualization by multiplying by 16, this is a daily-to-annual
conversion used by Robert Carver in his writings.
METHODOLOGY, CREDIT
The estimator follows the approach popularized by Robert Carver
("Systematic Trading", "Advanced Futures Trading Strategies", blog qoppac).
Current daily volatility is computed as an exponentially weighted standard
deviation of daily percent returns, with alpha = 2 / (span + 1).
The slow leg is a long EMA of that volatility series, about 10 years.
The blend uses fixed weights. This keeps the slow leg meaningful through
large price level changes, since the blend is done in percent space first.
MATH DETAILS
Let r_t be daily percent return:
r_t = 100 * (Close_t / Close_{t−1} − 1)
EWMA mean and variance:
m_t = α * r_t + (1 − α) * m_{t−1}
v_t = α * (r_t − m_t)^2 + (1 − α) * v_{t−1}
where α = 2 / (span_current + 1)
Current daily sigma in percent points:
sigma_day = sqrt(v_t)
Slow leg:
sigma_10y = EMA(sigma_day, span_long)
Blend:
sigma_blend = (1 − p) * sigma_day + p * sigma_10y
Annualized option:
sigma_ann = 16 * sigma_blend
INPUTS
- Threshold (percent points): horizontal guide level on the chart.
- Short term span (days): EW stdev span for sigma_day.
- Long term span (days): EMA span for the slow leg, choose about 2500 for 10 years.
- Slow weight %: p in the blend.
- Annualize (x16): plot daily or annualized values.
- Show components: toggles Current and 10y EMA lines.
- The script uses the chart symbol by default.
PLOTS
- Blended σ% as the main line.
- Optional Current σ% and 10y EMA σ%.
- Editable horizontal threshold line in the same units as the plot
(percent points per day or per year).
- Optional EMA 9 and EMA 20 cloud on the blended series, green for uptrend
when EMA 9 is above EMA 20, red otherwise. Opacity is configurable.
HOW TO READ
- Values are percent points of movement per day when not annualized,
for example 1.2 means about 1.2% typical daily move.
- With annualize checked, values are percent points per year, for example 18
means about 18% annualized volatility.
- Use the threshold and the EMA cloud to mark high or low volatility regimes.
NOTES
- All calculations use daily data via request.security at the chart symbol.
- The blend is done in percent space, then optionally annualized, which avoids
bias from the price level.
- This script does not produce trading signals by itself, it is a risk and
regime indicator.

ATR Extension from Moving Average, with Robust Sigma Bands
# ATR Extension from Moving Average, with Robust Sigma Bands
**What it does**
This indicator measures how far price is from a selected moving average, expressed in **ATR multiples**, then overlays **robust sigma bands** around the long run central tendency of that extension. Positive values mean price is extended above the MA, negative values mean price is extended below the MA. The signal adapts to volatility through ATR, which makes comparisons consistent across symbols and regimes.
**Why it can help**
* Normalizes distance to an MA by ATR, which controls for changing volatility
* Uses the **bar’s extreme** against the MA, not just the close, so it captures true stretch
* Computes a **median** and **standard deviation** of the extension over a multi-year window, which yields simple, intuitive bands for trend and mean-reversion decisions
---
## Inputs
* **MA length**: default 50, options 200, 64, 50, 20, 9, 4, 3
* **MA timeframe**: Daily or Weekly. The MA is computed on the chosen higher timeframe through `request.security`.
* **MA type**: EMA or SMA
* **Years lookback**: 1 to 10 years, default 5. This sets the sample for the median and sigma calculation, `years * 365` bars.
* **Line width**: visual width of the plotted extension series
* **Table**: optional on-chart table that displays the current long run **median** and **sigma** of the extension, with selectable text size
**Fixed parameters in this release**
* **ATR length**: 20 on the daily timeframe
* **ATR type**: classic ATR. ADR percent is not enabled in this version.
---
## Plots and colors
* **Main plot**: “Extension from 50d EMA” by default. Value is in **ATR multiples**.
* **Reference lines**:
* `median` line, black dashed
* +2σ orange, +3σ red
* −2σ blue, −3σ green
---
## How it is calculated
1. **Moving average** on the selected higher timeframe: EMA or SMA of `close`.
2. **Extreme-based distance** from MA, as a percent of price:
* If `close > MA`, use `(high − MA) / close * 100`
* Else, use `(low − MA) / close * 100`
3. **ATR percent** on the daily timeframe: `ATR(20) / close * 100`
4. **ATR multiples**: extension percent divided by ATR percent
5. **Robust center and spread** over the chosen lookback window:
* Center: **median** of the ATR-multiple series
* Spread: **standard deviation** of that series
* Bands: center ± 1σ, 2σ, 3σ, with 2σ and 3σ drawn
This design yields an intuitive unit scale. A value of **+2.0** means price is about 2 ATR above the selected MA by the most stretched side of the current bar. A value of **−3.0** means roughly 3 ATR below.
---
## Practical use
* **Trend continuation**
* Sustained readings near or above **+1σ** together with a rising MA often signal healthy momentum.
* **Mean reversion**
* Spikes into **±2σ** or **±3σ** can identify stretched conditions for fade setups in range or late-trend environments.
* **Regime awareness**
* The **median** moves slowly. When median drifts positive for many months, the market spends more time extended above the MA, which often marks bullish regimes. The opposite applies in bearish regimes.
**Notes**
* The MA can be set to Weekly while ATR remains Daily. This is deliberate, it keeps the normalization stable for most symbols.
* On very short intraday charts, the extension remains meaningful since it references the session’s extreme against a higher-timeframe MA and a daily ATR.
* Symbols with short histories may not fill the lookback window. Bands will adapt as data accrues.
---
## Table overlay
Enable **Table → Show** to see:
* “ATR from \”
* Current **median** and **sigma** of the extension series for your lookback
---
## Recommended settings
* **Swing equities**: 50 EMA on Daily, 5 to 7 years
* **Index trend work**: 200 EMA on Daily, 10 years
* **Position trading**: 20 or 50 EMA on Weekly MA, 5 to 10 years
---
## Interpretation examples
* Reading **+2.7** with price above a rising 50 EMA, near prior highs
* Strong trend extension, consider pyramiding in trend systems or waiting for a pullback if you are a mean-reverter.
* Reading **−2.2** into multi-month support with flattening MA
* Stretch to the downside that often mean-reverts, size entries based on your system rules.
---

ATR SL/TPStop Loss Finder ATR
A Stop Loss Finder ATR indicator is a dynamic risk management tool leveraging the Average True Range (ATR) to identify and track optimal stop-loss levels based on current market volatility.
A stop hunt indicator is a technical tool designed to identify potential instances where large market participants, often referred to as "smart money," deliberately move the price to trigger a large number of stop-loss orders, creating a temporary price distortion before reversing the trend. These indicators aim to help traders detect these events to either avoid being stopped out or to enter trades in the direction of the anticipated reversal.
For example, a long wick below support with high volume may signal a bullish stop-hunt , indicating that the price has been driven down to trigger sell-stop orders before reversing upward. Conversely, a long wick above resistance with high volume may signal a bearish stop-hunt , suggesting the price was pushed up to trigger buy-stop orders before reversing downward. The presence of such wicks is often associated with candlestick patterns like hammers or shooting stars.
Unlike fixed stop-losses, this indicator adapts its distance from the current price using a customizable ATR multiplier, ensuring that stop-loss levels are neither too tight (prone to being triggered by normal market noise) nor too wide (exposing capital to excessive risk) . The core function calculates the true range—considering the current high-low range, gaps up, and gaps down—over a user-defined period (typically 14 bars), then applies a multiplier to generate a volatility-adjusted stop-loss distance . This approach allows the indicator to dynamically widen stops during high-volatility periods and tighten them during calm markets, providing a more responsive and context-aware exit strategy.
ORB with Golden Zone FIB targets, Any Timeframe by TenAMTraderDescription:

VWAP Confluência 3x VWAP Confluence 3x — Daily · Weekly · Anchored
Purpose
A pragmatic VWAP suite for execution and risk management. It plots three institutional reference lines: Daily VWAP, Weekly VWAP, and an Anchored VWAP (AVWAP) starting from a user-defined event (news, earnings, session open, swing high/low).
Why it matters
VWAP is the market’s “fair price” weighted by where volume actually traded. Confluence across timeframes and events turns noisy charts into actionable bias and clean levels.
What it does
Daily VWAP — resets each trading day; intraday “fair value.”
Weekly VWAP — resets each week; swing context and larger player defense.
Anchored VWAP — starts at a precise timestamp you set (e.g., news release).
Price source toggle — Typical Price

Inputs
Show Daily VWAP (on/off)
Show Weekly VWAP (on/off)
Show Anchored VWAP (on/off)
Price Source: Typical (H+L+C)/3 or Close
Anchor Time: timestamp of your event (uses the chart/exchange timezone)
How to anchor to a news event
Find the exact release time as shown in your chart’s timezone.
Open the indicator settings → set Anchor Time to that minute.
The AVWAP begins at that bar and accumulates forward.
Playbook (examples, not signals)
Strong long bias: price above Daily and Weekly VWAP; AVWAP reclaimed after news.
Strong short bias: price below Daily and Weekly; AVWAP reject after news.
Mean-revert zones: price stretches far from the active VWAPs and snaps back; size around VWAP with tight risk.
Targets: opposite VWAP, prior day/week highs/lows, or liquidity pools near AVWAP.
Best used with
Session highs/lows, liquidity sweeps, volume profile, and time-of-day filters.
Notes & limitations
Works best on markets with reliable volume (equities, futures, liquid crypto). FX spot uses synthetic volume—interpret accordingly.
Anchor Time respects the chart’s timezone. Convert news times before setting.
This is an indicator, not a backtestable strategy. No trade advice.

Confluence StackPlease read the instructions below. The code was mostly written using AI so may contain errors. Happy trading all and good luck. ATB Richard
INTENDED USE
This indicator is designed for technical traders who want to move beyond simple buy/sell signals and gain a deeper understanding of the underlying market dynamics. It is ideal for trend followers, swing traders, and anyone looking to confirm the quality of a trend.
WHO IS THIS FOR?
Traders who want to differentiate between strong, sustainable trends and weak, unreliable moves.
Analysts looking to identify high-conviction setups backed by multiple factors (e.g., momentum confirmed by volume).
Discretionary traders who need a quick, visual tool to gauge market sentiment and avoid choppy conditions.
WHY USE IT?
Traditional indicators often give conflicting signals. The Confluence Stack solves this by aggregating multiple perspectives into one clear visual. It helps you answer not just "Is the market going up?" but "WHY is it going up, and how strong is the conviction?". This allows for more informed decision-making and helps filter out low-probability trades.

HOW TO USE THIS INDICATOR
This indicator is designed to show the 'character' of a market move by grouping signals into distinct categories. Instead of seeing many individual signals, you see the strength of the underlying forces driving the price.
1. READ THE HEIGHT (Strength of Confluence)
The total height of the stack shows the strength of agreement. A tall stack means many signals are aligned, indicating a high-conviction move. A short stack means weak agreement and a choppy, indecisive market.
2. READ THE COLOR (Character of the Move)
The colors tell you WHY the market is moving.
BLUE (Momentum): A stack of mostly blue shades indicates a trend driven by pure momentum. This is the 'speed' of the market.
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Measures the magnitude of recent price gains versus losses. A smooth measure of trend strength.
Stochastic Oscillator: Measures the current closing price's position within the recent high-low range. More sensitive to immediate price action.
CCI (Commodity Channel Index): Measures the price's deviation from its moving average. Excels at identifying cyclical turns.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence): A trend-following momentum indicator showing the relationship between two moving averages. Excellent for identifying the start and end of trends.
YELLOW (Volume): The appearance of yellow shades confirms the move is supported by high market participation. This is the 'fuel' for the trend.
Volume Ratio: A custom signal that triggers when buy or sell volume is unusually high compared to its recent average.
CRV (Candle Range Volume): A custom signal that looks for candles with significant price range and volume.
OBV (On-Balance Volume): A cumulative indicator that adds volume on up days and subtracts it on down days. It shows the long-term flow of money.
FUCHSIA (Volatility): A fuchsia block signals a volatility breakout. This adds a sense of urgency and confirms the price is moving with exceptional force.
Bollinger Bands: A signal triggers when the price closes outside of the upper or lower standard deviation bands.
ORANGE (Price Action): An orange block is a pure price structure signal. It's a raw statement of intent from the market.
Price Gap: A signal that triggers when there's a gap up or gap down between candles.
3. READ THE TRANSITION (Shift in Sentiment)
The most important signal from the stacks is the flip from one side of the zero line to the other.
Flipping from Negative to Positive: A bearish stack disappears and is replaced by a bullish stack. This indicates market sentiment is shifting from bearish to bullish.
Flipping from Positive to Negative: A bullish stack disappears and is replaced by a bearish stack. This warns of a potential top or the start of a new downtrend.
4. FILTER FOR NOISE (Plot Threshold)
In choppy markets, the stack can flicker with low signal counts (e.g., +1 or -1). To focus only on high-conviction moves, go to the indicator settings and increase the "Plot Threshold". A setting of 2 or 3 will hide all stacks that don't have at least 2 or 3 agreeing signals, effectively filtering out market noise and keeping your chart clean.
5. CUSTOMIZE YOUR SIGNALS (Enable/Disable)
This indicator is fully customizable. In the settings, you can enable or disable each of the 9 indicators individually. For example, if you are a pure momentum trader, you could disable all Volume, Volatility, and Price Action signals to focus only on the blue stacks. Tailor it to fit your specific trading style.
EXAMPLE INTERPRETATIONS
Strong, Confirmed Trend: A tall stack of mostly blue (Momentum) and yellow (Volume) indicates a high-quality trend backed by both speed and market participation.
Momentum-Only Trend: A tall stack of only blue is a strong momentum move, but the lack of yellow (Volume) is a warning that the move may lack the "fuel" to be sustained.
Choppy/Indecisive Market: A short, mixed-color stack flickering around the zero line means the market is choppy with no clear conviction. It's often best to stay out.
Volatility Breakout: A new stack that appears suddenly with a fuchsia (Bollinger Bands) block on its first bar suggests a volatility-driven breakout is initiating.
Exhaustion Move: An orange (Price Gap) block appearing at the peak of a tall, long-standing stack can signal an exhaustion gap, potentially marking the end of the trend.
Weakening Conviction (Divergence): If price makes a new high but the positive stack is visibly shorter than the stack at the previous price high, it suggests underlying conviction is weakening.
Dual Channel System [Alpha Extract]A sophisticated trend-following and reversal detection system that constructs dynamic support and resistance channels using volatility-adjusted ATR calculations and EMA smoothing for optimal market structure analysis. Utilizing advanced dual-zone methodology with step-like boundary evolution, this indicator delivers institutional-grade channel analysis that adapts to varying volatility conditions while providing high-probability entry and exit signals through breakthrough and rejection detection with comprehensive visual mapping and alert integration.
🔶 Advanced Channel Construction
Implements dual-zone architecture using recent price extremes as foundation points, applying EMA smoothing to reduce noise and ATR multipliers for volatility-responsive channel widths. The system creates resistance channels from highest highs and support channels from lowest lows with asymmetric multiplier ratios for optimal market reaction zones.
// Core Channel Calculation Framework
ATR = ta.atr(14)
// Resistance Channel Construction
Resistance_Basis = ta.ema(ta.highest(high, lookback), lookback)
Resistance_Upper = Resistance_Basis + (ATR * resistance_mult)
Resistance_Lower = Resistance_Basis - (ATR * resistance_mult * 0.3)
// Support Channel Construction
Support_Basis = ta.ema(ta.lowest(low, lookback), lookback)
Support_Upper = Support_Basis + (ATR * support_mult * 0.4)
Support_Lower = Support_Basis - (ATR * support_mult)
// Smoothing Application
Smoothed_Resistance_Upper = ta.ema(Resistance_Upper, smooth_periods)
Smoothed_Support_Lower = ta.ema(Support_Lower, smooth_periods)
🔶 Volatility-Adaptive Zone Framework
Features dynamic ATR-based width adjustment that expands channels during high-volatility periods and contracts during consolidation phases, preventing false signals while maintaining sensitivity to genuine breakouts. The asymmetric multiplier system optimizes zone boundaries for realistic market behavior patterns.
// Dynamic Volatility Adjustment
Channel_Width_Resistance = ATR * resistance_mult
Channel_Width_Support = ATR * support_mult
// Asymmetric Zone Optimization
Resistance_Zone = Resistance_Basis ± (ATR_Multiplied * )
Support_Zone = Support_Basis ± (ATR_Multiplied * )
🔶 Step-Like Boundary Evolution

Crypto Breakout Buy/Sell Sequence
⚙️ Components & Sequence Multiple Timeframe (What It Does)
1. Bollinger Bands – Form the foundation by measuring volatility and creating the dynamic range where squeezes and breakouts occur.
2. Squeeze Dots – Show when price compresses inside the bands, signaling reduced volatility before expansion.
3. Breakout Event (Brk Dot) – Fires when price expands beyond the squeeze zone, confirming volatility expansion. (This paints Intra, before candle close)
4. Buy Signal – Confirms entry after a breakout is validated. (This paints at candle close)
5. Pump Signal – Flags sudden surges that extend sharply from the bands, often linked to strong inflows.
6. Momentum Stream – Tracks the strength of movement following the breakout, from continuation (🟢) to slowing (🟡) to exhaustion (🔴). (Resets at Pump Signal)
7. Overbought Indicator – Confirms when momentum has reached overheated conditions, often aligning with band extremes.
8. Sell Signal – Prints when exhaustion/reversal conditions are met, closing the trade cycle.
The Crypto Breakout Buy/Sell Sequence is a no-repaint event indicator that maps a full trade cycle using Bollinger-band-based volatility states: Bollinger Bands → Squeeze → Breakout → Buy → Pump → Momentum → Top Test → Overbought → Sell. Each stage is rule-based and designed to be read on standard candlesticks.
How It Works (System Logic)
Volatility framework: Bollinger Bands define dynamic range and compression/expansion.
Initiation: Squeeze → Breakout confirms expansion; Buy validates participation after expansion begins.
Management: Pump highlights unusual acceleration; Momentum stream tracks continuation → slowing → exhaustion.
Exhaustion/Exit: Top Testing + Overbought build the exhaustion case; Sell marks the sequence end.
How To Use (Quick Guide)
Wait for Squeeze → Breakout → Buy to establish a structured start.
Manage with Momentum:
🟢 continuation, 🟡 slowing, 🔴 exhaustion pressure.
Monitor extremes: Top Testing and/or Overbought = tighten risk.
Exit on Sell or on your risk rules when exhaustion builds.
Limitations & Good Practice
Signals reflect price/volatility behavior, not certainty.
Strong trends can remain extended; Overbought/Top Test ≠ instant reversal.
Always confirm with your own risk rules, position sizing, and market context.
Initial public release: integrated Squeeze/Breakout/Buy → Momentum → Exhaustion → Sell cycle; improved label clarity; cleaned defaults.

Scalping, Swing Pro: Urban Towers + Bollinger(0.5)+ WMA by KidevThis indicator combines narrow Bollinger Bands (σ = 0.5) with a Weighted Moving Average (WMA-96) to provide traders with a reliable framework for identifying both short-term scalps and medium-term swing setups.
Bollinger Bands (0.5σ):
Traditional Bollinger Bands at 2σ cover ~95% of price movement, while 0.5σ bands narrow the focus to ~50% of price activity. This tighter structure makes them ideal for detecting volatility contractions, consolidations, and early breakout signals.
WMA-96 as Trend Reference:
The 96-period WMA acts as a slower, more stable directional guide. Unlike shorter WMAs, this longer setting filters noise and serves as a reference line for the dominant trend. Traders can use it as an anchor for intraday or swing positions.
Scalping & Swing Benefits:
Price holding above the WMA-96 while staying near the upper 0.5σ band often signals strength.
Contractions (squeezes) in the 0.5σ band followed by expansion frequently mark breakout zones.
Pullbacks toward the WMA-96 combined with band signals can act as re-entry or risk-defined trade areas.
This script provides a balanced view of momentum and stability — the 0.5σ bands reveal short-term volatility shifts, while the WMA-96 grounds the trader in the prevailing trend.
Globex Trap w/ percentage [SLICKRICK]Globex Trap w/ Percentage
Overview
The Globex Trap w/ Percentage indicator is a powerful tool designed to help traders identify high-probability trading opportunities by analyzing price action during the Globex (overnight) session and regular trading hours. By combining Globex session ranges with Supply & Demand zones, this indicator highlights potential "trap" areas where significant price reactions may occur. Additionally, it calculates the Globex session range as a percentage of the daily Average True Range (ATR), providing valuable context for assessing market volatility.
This indicator is ideal for traders in futures markets or other instruments traded during Globex sessions, offering a visual and analytical edge for spotting key price levels and potential reversals or breakouts.
Key Features
Globex Session Tracking:
Visualizes the high and low of the Globex session (default: 3:00 PM to 6:30 AM PST) with customizable time settings.
Displays a semi-transparent box to mark the Globex range, with labels for "Globex High" and "Globex Low."
Calculates the Globex range as a percentage of the daily ATR, displayed as a label for quick reference.
Supply & Demand Zones:
Identifies Supply & Demand zones during regular trading hours (default: 6:00 AM to 8:00 AM PST) with customizable time settings.
Draws semi-transparent boxes to highlight these zones, aiding in the identification of key support and resistance areas.
Trap Area Identification:
Highlights potential trap zones where Globex ranges and Supply & Demand zones overlap, indicating areas where price may reverse or consolidate due to trapped traders.
Customizable Settings:
Adjust Globex and Supply & Demand session times to suit your trading preferences.
Toggle visibility of Globex and Supply & Demand zones independently.
Customize box colors for better chart readability.
Set the lookback period (default: 10 days) to control how many historical zones are displayed.
Configure the ATR length (default: 14) for the percentage calculation.
PST Timezone Default:
All times are based on Pacific Standard Time (PST) by default, ensuring accurate session tracking for users in this timezone or those aligning with U.S. West Coast market hours.
Recommended Usage
Timeframes: Best used on 1-hour charts or lower (e.g., 15-minute, 5-minute) for precise entry and exit points.
Markets: Optimized for futures (e.g., ES, NQ, CL) and other instruments traded during Globex sessions.
Historical Data: Ensure at least 10 days of historical data for optimal visualization of zones.
Strategy Integration: Use the indicator to identify potential reversals or breakouts at Globex highs/lows or Supply & Demand zones. The ATR percentage provides context for whether the Globex range is significant relative to typical daily volatility.
How It Works
Globex Session:
Tracks the high and low prices during the user-defined Globex session (default: 3:00 PM to 6:30 AM PST).
When the session ends, a box is drawn from the start to the end of the session, capturing the high and low prices.
Labels are placed at the midpoint of the session, showing "Globex High," "Globex Low," and the range as a percentage of the daily ATR (e.g., "75.23% of Daily ATR").
Supply & Demand Zones:
Tracks the high and low prices during the user-defined regular trading hours (default: 6:00 AM to 8:00 AM PST).
Draws a box to mark these zones, which often act as key support or resistance levels.
ATR Percentage:
Calculates the Globex range (high minus low) and divides it by the daily ATR to express it as a percentage.
This metric helps traders gauge whether the overnight price movement is significant compared to the instrument’s typical volatility.
Time Handling:
Uses PST (UTC-8) for all time calculations, ensuring accurate session timing for users aligning with this timezone.
Properly handles overnight sessions that cross midnight, ensuring seamless tracking.

BB Crosses Optimized - [JTCAPITAL]BB Crosses Optimized is a modified way to use Bollinger Bands for Trend-Following
The indicator works by calculating in the following steps:
1. The source gets smoothed out using a moving average
2. Calculating the Bollinger Bands using the SMA of the smoothed source and the standard deviation of the smoothed source.
3. Trigger a signal based on current price and the buy/sell conditions.
--Buy and sell conditions--
-The buy and sell conditions are defined by the price going above/below the first standard deviation. When this goes on the opposite direction of the current trend, the trend changes. If this goes in the same direction of the current trend, the line follows the price by moving up with the standard deviation.
-When using the ATR filter the ATR gets subtracted from the lows or added onto the highs to eliminate false signals in choppy markets.
--Features and Parameters--
-Allows the usage of different sources
-Allows the usage of different moving average types
-Allows the changing of the length of the ATR
-Allows the changing of the length of the bollinger bands period
-Allows the changing of the standard deviation used from the bollinger bands
-Allows the changing of the length for smoothing out the price data
--Details--
This script is using multiple moving averages, sometimes even stacked upon eachother. And it also uses the moving average of the raw data on a short period to calculate the standard deviations. This in combination with the ATR filter is meant to eliminate as much false signals as I could. Without making all the entries and exits extremely delayed.
Be aware that disabling the ATR will allow for faster entries and exits but also allow for more false signals. It is recommended to change the parameters to fit your liking and to adjust to the timeframe you are working on.
Enjoy!
