SNP420/INDI/support_resist_future_levelFunctionality – short description
The indicator automatically detects the latest pivot highs/lows and builds the current resistance and support levels from them. New levels start as candidate levels (dotted lines).
Using an ATR-based tolerance, it counts how many times price precisely tests and rejects the level (touch + reversal).
Once the minimum number of touches is reached, the level is marked as validated (solid line). The indicator also detects breakouts of S/R, colors breakout candles, projects a target level after the breakout, and highlights retests of the broken levels with boxes.

ps: Piece a love
Follow BreakoutThe indicator tracks trend breakouts. It generates multiple signals during sideways trends.
Candle Identification + Cardwell Strength (w/ Slope Velocity)Identifies candle patterns pin bar, inside bar, outside bar, and shaved bars. The script also indicates the strength of the candle formation based upon Cardwell RSI principles, ADX, and price in relation to the VWAP.
The settings are available to the user to adjust for there specific style of trading.
Gap Finder v6Locate all existing open gaps.
Display gap labels on chart with the size of the gap.
Gap size is based on the percentage of the price prior to when the gap was formed.
Example of label: .............Gap 4.8%
Market Regime Flip (Dunk)This indicator is a trend regime flip tool built on top of MACD. Instead of reacting to every little wiggle, it waits for several bars in a row where the MACD stays either above or below zero (by default, 3 consecutive bars). When the MACD has been above zero for 3 bars, it declares a bull regime and marks that bar on the price chart with a green “BULL” triangle above the candle. When the MACD has been below zero for 3 bars, it declares a bear regime and marks that bar with a red “BEAR” triangle below the candle. It also lightly colors the chart background green in bull regimes and red in bear regimes, so you can see at a glance which side of the market you’re in.
In other words, it turns the MACD’s usual “above/below zero” behavior into a clean, slower-changing on/off regime switch. Instead of giving you constant signals, it focuses on the moments where momentum truly shifts and sticks around for a few bars, helping you avoid getting faked out by single-bar noise. The alerts are wired to those flip moments, so you can get notified when the market transitions from bearish to bullish (or vice versa) according to this MACD-based regime logic.
MSS + Multi FVG TrackerMSS + Multi FVG Tracker
Description
An advanced institutional trading tool that combines Market Structure Shift (MSS) detection with multi-level Fair Value Gap (FVG) tracking. This indicator identifies breakouts of previous swing highs/lows on higher timeframes, then systematically tracks and validates multiple FVGs within each trend direction, generating precise entry signals when price respects the gap structure.
How It Works
Higher Timeframe Trend Detection
The indicator analyzes a higher timeframe (default 15-minute) to determine the overall bias, displaying background colors that show bullish or bearish directionality. This ensures you only trade with institutional trend direction.
Market Structure Shift (MSS/BOS)
When price closes above a previous swing high (in uptrends) or below a previous swing low (in downtrends), a BOS (Break of Structure) is marked with a line and label. This signals that the institutional structure has shifted and a new trend impulse is beginning.
Multi-Level FVG Tracking
Once an MSS occurs:
The indicator begins scanning for Fair Value Gaps (gaps between candles where no trading occurred)
Bullish FVGs: Gaps above the closing price of a bearish candle (low > high )
Bearish FVGs: Gaps below the closing price of a bullish candle (high < low )
Multiple FVGs are tracked simultaneously (up to 5 configurable) across the same impulse
Intelligent FVG Validation
Each FVG is continuously monitored:
Invalidated: If price closes through the gap (below a bullish FVG or above a bearish FVG), it's automatically deleted
Touched: If price enters the gap zone, it's marked as "touched"
Signal Generated: When a touched FVG shows strong directional confirmation (bullish candle closing above the FVG top, or bearish candle closing below the FVG bottom), a LONG or SHORT signal is triggered
Key Features
HTF Trend Confirmation: Only trades aligned with higher timeframe bias (eliminates counter-trend noise)
Multi-FVG Architecture: Tracks up to 5 gaps per trend impulse simultaneously
Automatic Gap Invalidation: Removes FVGs that break below/above, keeping only valid levels
Smart Signal Generation: Entry signals require both FVG respect + directional confirmation
Color-Coded Structure: Bullish signals in green, bearish in red with instant visual clarity
Background Trend Visualization: Subtle background shading shows HTF bias at all times
Customizable Parameters: Adjust swing period, HTF timeframe, and max FVGs to track
Ideal For
ICT Smart Money traders using FVG + MSS methodologies
Institutional order flow analysts trading market structure
Multi-timeframe traders looking for confluence-based entries
Scalpers to swing traders on 5-minute to 1-hour charts
Anyone seeking high-probability setups with clear invalidation rules
Trading Applications
Scalp FVG reversals: Enter when price respects a touched FVG with confirmation
Trade impulses with structure: Follow MSS with FVG confluence for institutional-grade entries
Identify pullback opportunities: Track multiple FVGs during retracements for re-entry zones
Confirm breakout validity: Only take breaks when aligned with HTF trend + FVG structure
Avoid false breakouts: Invalidated FVGs signal that the move is losing structure
How to Use
Wait for the MSS: Background color shift + BOS line confirms market structure break
Monitor FVG Creation: Boxes appear as gaps form within the new impulse
Watch for Invalidation: Red boxes disappear if price breaks the gap—signal invalid
Wait for Touch + Confirmation: FVG must be touched AND show strong directional candle
Take the Signal: Triangle entry markers appear with audio/visual alerts
Clear Risk Management: Use the invalidated FVG level as your stop loss
Signal Strength Indicators
Strongest Setup: Multiple FVGs created + one respects while others invalidate (shows structure)
Medium Setup: Single FVG touched and confirmed
Weaker Setup: Quick touch with weak confirmation candle (wait for better structure)
Customization Options
HTF Timeframe: Change from 15-min to 5, 30, 60 min or higher for different trading styles
Swing Period: Adjust from 10 bars for faster detection to 20+ for structural shifts
Max FVGs: Track 1-5 simultaneous gaps (lower = cleaner, higher = more opportunities)
Colors: Customize bullish/bearish colors to match your chart theme
Default Settings Optimized For
NASDAQ futures and liquid forex pairs
5-minute to 1-hour timeframe trading
Smart Money / ICT methodology
High-probability impulse + gap trading
Pro Tips
The cleaner your chart (fewer invalidated FVGs), the stronger the structural move
Multiple valid FVGs in one impulse suggest institutional accumulation/distribution
HTF background color changes are early warnings of trend structure shift
Best setups occur when 2-3 FVGs exist and one shows clear confirmation
Equal Highs/Lows Multi-Pivot [Julio]Equal Highs/Lows Multi-Pivot
Description
A sophisticated multi-timeframe pivot analysis tool that detects and highlights equal highs and equal lows across four different pivot lengths simultaneously. This indicator identifies price levels where the market creates identical extremes, a powerful signal of institutional support/resistance and potential reversal or breakout zones.
How It Works
Four Independent Pivot Streams
Pivot 1 (Intraday - 2 bars): Ultra-fast level detection for scalpers
Pivot 2 (Session - 4 bars): Short-term swing levels
Pivot 3 (Daily - 6 bars): Medium-term structural levels
Pivot 4 (Weekly - 9 bars): Long-term institutional levels
Equal High (EQH) Detection
Compares consecutive swing highs and draws a line when two highs are nearly identical within a defined threshold. The indicator uses ATR-based confluence to determine "equality," filtering out noise while catching true market structure.
Equal Low (EQL) Detection
Same logic applied to swing lows, identifying support zones where price repeatedly fails to break below previous lows.
Key Features
Four Simultaneous Timeframes: Analyze intraday, session, daily, and weekly structures all on one chart
ATR-Based Confluence Threshold: Automatically adjusts sensitivity based on current volatility (no fake signals)
Color-Coded Levels: Each pivot length has distinct colors for instant visual identification
Highs: Red, Orange, Yellow, Fuchsia
Lows: Green, Blue, Aqua, Purple
Confirmation Mode: Optional setting to wait for full pivot confirmation before marking levels
Customizable Alert Zones: Toggle individual pivot lengths on/off to reduce clutter
Smart Label Positioning: Labels auto-center between the two equal pivots for clarity
Ideal For
Swing traders tracking support/resistance across multiple timeframes
Scalpers identifying micro-structure for quick entries and exits
Market structure analysts studying institutional price action patterns
Multi-timeframe traders needing confluence from intraday to weekly levels
Anyone trading 1-minute to 4-hour charts
Trading Applications
Identify strong support/resistance zones: Equal levels = confirmed institutional levels
Confirm trend reversals: Multiple equal lows = strong accumulation zone; multiple equal highs = distribution
Plan entries with precision: Enter near equal levels for higher probability setups
Detect liquidity concentration: Where price repeatedly tests the same level
Multi-timeframe confluence: Look for equal levels across multiple pivot lengths for ultra-strong zones
How to Use
Identify the equal levels: Color-coded lines instantly show where price creates matching extremes
Check for confluence: Strong setups occur where multiple pivot lengths align
Wait for price action: Watch for breakouts through equal levels or reversals at these zones
Enter with structure: Use equal levels as entry/exit triggers combined with your trading methodology
Manage with confidence: These levels mark institutional decision points
Customization Options
Adjust pivot lengths to match your preferred timeframe structure
Set ATR threshold sensitivity (lower = stricter equality, higher = more signals)
Toggle confirmation mode for additional filter
Enable/disable individual pivot streams to reduce visual clutter
Customize colors to match your chart theme

XAUUSD 9/1 and 6/4 ZONE LINE (Buy zone and SELL zone)When trading the XAUUSD pair, I noticed that gold often reverses from price levels ending with the digits 9/1 and 6/4. Because of this pattern, I began drawing lines based on these price endings and integrating them into my trading strategy. When combined with other trading methods, these levels provided strong and consistent results.

💡 PRO TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS
1. USE DAILY (1D) CHARTS ONLY
Weekly charts = Fewer signals, slower moves
Daily charts = Best for swing trading ✅
Intraday charts = Too many false signals
2. SCAN MULTIPLE STOCKS
Don't just watch 1 stock
Scan 50-100 stocks daily
More stocks = More opportunities
3. WAIT FOR PERFECT ALIGNMENT
Don't enter on 8/14 criteria
Wait for 12+/14 criteria
This increases win rate significantly
4. VOLUME IS CRITICAL
Always check Vol Brk column
No volume = Likely to fail
1.3x+ volume = Good breakout
5. COMBINE WITH YOUR OWN ANALYSIS
Indicator gives technical signals
You add your own fundamental view
Strong fundamental + technical = Best trade
6. BACKTEST ON HISTORICAL DATA
Use TradingView Replay feature
Go back 6-12 months
See how many signals appeared
Verify which were profitable

Signal Lynx | Free Scripts supporting Automation for the Night-Shift Nation 🌙
1. Overview
This is the Alerts & Indicator Edition of Superior-Range Bound Renko (RBR).
The Strategy version is built for backtesting inside TradingView.
This Alerts version is built for automation: it emits clean, discrete alert events that you can route into webhooks, bots, or relay engines (including your own Signal Lynx-style infrastructure).
Under the hood, this script contains the same core engine as the strategy:
Adaptive Range Bounding based on volatility
Renko Brick Emulation on standard candles
A stack of Laguerre Filters for impulse detection
K-Means-style Adaptive SuperTrend for trend confirmation
The full Signal Lynx Risk Management Engine (state machine, layered exits, AATS, RSIS, etc.)
The difference is in what we output:
Instead of placing historical trades, this version:
Plots the entry and RM signals in a separate pane (overlay = false)
Exposes alertconditions for:
Long Entry
Short Entry
Close Long
Close Short
TP1, TP2, TP3 hits (Staged Take Profit)
This makes it ideal as the signal source for automated execution via TradingView Alerts + Webhooks.
2. Quick Action Guide (TL;DR)
Best Timeframe:
4H and above. This is a swing-trading / position-trading style engine, not a micro-scalper.

All “orders” are emitted as alerts for your external bot or manual handling
Strategy Type:
Volatility-Adaptive Trend Following + Impulse Detection
using Renko-like structure and multi-layer Laguerre filters.
Repainting:
Designed to be non-repainting on closed candles.
The underlying Risk Management engine is built around previous-bar data (close , high , low ) for execution-critical logic.
Intrabar values can move while the bar is forming (normal for any advanced signal), but once a bar closes, the alert logic is stable.
Recommended Alert Settings:
Condition: one of the built-in signals (see section 3.B)
Options: “Once Per Bar Close” is strongly recommended for automation
Message: JSON, CSV, or simple tokens – whatever your webhook / relay expects
3. Detailed Report: How the Alerts Edition Works
A. Relationship to the Strategy Version
The Alerts Edition shares the same internal logic as the strategy version:
Same Adaptive Lookback and volatility normalization
Same Range and Close Range construction
Same Renko Brick Emulator and directional memory (renkoDir)
Same Fib structures, Laguerre stack, K-Means SuperTrend, and Baseline signals (B1, B2)
Same Risk Management Engine and layered exits
In the strategy script, these signals are wired into strategy.entry, strategy.exit, and strategy.close.
In the alerts script:
We still compute the final entry/exit signals (Fin, CloseEmAll, TakeProfit1Plot, etc.)
Instead of placing trades, we:
Plot them for visual inspection
Expose them via alertcondition(...) so that TradingView can fire alerts.
This ensures that:
If you use the same settings on the same symbol/timeframe, the Alerts Edition and Strategy Edition agree on where entries and exits occur.
(Subject only to normal intrabar vs. bar-close differences.)
B. Signals & Alert Conditions
The alerts script focuses on discrete, automation-friendly events.
Internally, the main signals are:
Fin – Final entry decision from the RM engine
CloseEmAll – RM-driven “hard close” signal (for full-position exits)
TakeProfit1Plot / 2Plot / 3Plot – One-time event markers when each TP stage is hit
On the chart (in the separate indicator pane), you get:
plot(Fin) – where:
+2 = Long Entry event
-2 = Short Entry event
plot(CloseEmAll) – where:
+1 = “Close Long” event
-1 = “Close Short” event
plot(TP1/TP2/TP3) (if Staged TP is enabled) – integer tags for TP hits:
+1 / +2 / +3 = TP1 / TP2 / TP3 for Longs
-1 / -2 / -3 = TP1 / TP2 / TP3 for Shorts
The corresponding alertconditions are:
Long Entry
alertcondition(Fin == 2, title="Long Entry", message="Long Entry Triggered")
Fire this to open/scale a long position in your bot.
Short Entry
alertcondition(Fin == -2, title="Short Entry", message="Short Entry Triggered")
Fire this to open/scale a short position.
Close Long
alertcondition(CloseEmAll == 1, title="Close Long", message="Close Long Triggered")
Fire this to fully exit a long position.
Close Short
alertcondition(CloseEmAll == -1, title="Close Short", message="Close Short Triggered")
Fire this to fully exit a short position.
TP 1 Hit
alertcondition(TakeProfit1Plot != 0, title="TP 1 Hit", message="TP 1 Level Reached")
First staged take profit hit (either long or short). Your bot can interpret the direction based on position state or message tags.
TP 2 Hit
alertcondition(TakeProfit2Plot != 0, title="TP 2 Hit", message="TP 2 Level Reached")
TP 3 Hit
alertcondition(TakeProfit3Plot != 0, title="TP 3 Hit", message="TP 3 Level Reached")
Together, these give you a complete trade lifecycle:
Open Long / Short
Optionally scale out via TP1/TP2/TP3
Close remaining via Close Long / Close Short
All while the Risk Management Engine enforces the same logic as the strategy version.
C. Using This Script for Automation
This Alerts Edition is designed for:
Webhook-based bots
Execution relays (e.g., your own Lynx-Relay-style engine)
Dedicated external trade managers
Typical setup flow:
Add the script to your chart
Same symbol, timeframe, and settings you use in the Strategy Edition backtests.
Configure Inputs:
Longs / Shorts enabled
Risk Management toggles (SL, TS, Staged TP, AATS, RSIS)
Weekend filter (if you do not want weekend trades)
RBR-specific knobs (Adaptive Lookback, Brick type, ATR vs Standard Brick, etc.)
Create Alerts for Each Event Type You Need:
Long Entry
Short Entry
Close Long
Close Short
TP1 / TP2 / TP3 (optional, if your bot handles partial closes)
For each:
Condition: the corresponding alertcondition
Option: “Once Per Bar Close” is strongly recommended
Message:
You can use structured JSON or a simple token set like:
{"side":"long","event":"entry","symbol":"{{ticker}}","time":"{{timenow}}"}
or a simpler text for manual trading like:
LONG ENTRY | {{ticker}} | {{interval}}
Wire Up Your Bot / Relay:
Point TradingView’s webhook URL to your execution engine
Parse the messages and map them into:
Exchange
Symbol
Side (long/short)
Action (open/close/partial)
Size and risk model (this script does not position-size for you; it only signals when, not how much.)
Because the alerts come from a non-repainting, RM-backed engine that you’ve already validated via the Strategy Edition, you get a much cleaner automation pipeline.
D. Repainting Protection (Alerts Edition)
The same protections as the Strategy Edition apply here:
Execution-critical logic (trailing stop, TP triggers, SL, RM state changes) uses previous bar OHLC:
open , high , low , close
No security() with lookahead or future-bar dependencies.
This means:
Alerts are designed to fire on states that would have been visible at bar close, not on hypothetical “future history.”
Important practical note:
Intrabar: While a bar is forming, internal conditions can oscillate.
Bar Close: With “Once Per Bar Close” alerts, the fired signal corresponds to the final state of the engine for that candle, matching your Strategy Edition expectations.
4. For Developers & Modders
You can treat this Alerts script as an ”RM + Alert Framework” and inject any signal logic you want.
Where to plug in:
Find the section:
// BASELINE & SIGNAL GENERATION
You’ll see how B1 and B2 are built from the RBR stack and then combined:
baseSig = B2
altSig = B1
finalSig = sigSwap ? baseSig : altSig
To use your own logic:
Replace or wrap the code that sets baseSig / altSig with your own conditions:
e.g., RSI, MACD, Heikin Ashi filters, candle patterns, volume filters, etc.
Make sure your final decision is still:
2 → Long / Buy signal
-2 → Short / Sell signal
0 → No trade
finalSig is then passed into the RM engine and eventually becomes Fin, which:
Drives the Long/Short Entry alerts
Interacts with the RM state machine to integrate properly with AATS, SL, TS, TP, etc.
Because this script already exposes alertconditions for key lifecycle events, you don’t need to re-wire alerts each time — just ensure your logic feeds into finalSig correctly.
This lets you use the Signal Lynx Risk Management Engine + Alerts wrapper as a drop-in chassis for your own strategies.

Superior-Range Bound Renko - Strategy - 11-29-25 - SignalLynxSuperior-Range Bound Renko Strategy with Advanced Risk Management Template
Signal Lynx | Free Scripts supporting Automation for the Night-Shift Nation 🌙
1. Overview
Welcome to Superior-Range Bound Renko (RBR) — a volatility-aware, structure-respecting swing-trading system built on top of a full Risk Management (RM) Template from Signal Lynx.
Instead of relying on static lookbacks (like “14-period RSI”) or plain MA crosses, Superior RBR:
Adapts its range definition to market volatility in real time
Emulates Renko Bricks on a standard, time-based chart (no Renko chart type required)
Uses a stack of Laguerre Filters to detect genuine impulse vs. noise
Adds an Adaptive SuperTrend powered by a small k-means-style clustering routine on volatility
Under the hood, this script also includes the full Signal Lynx Risk Management Engine:
A state machine that separates “Signal” from “Execution”
Layered exit tools: Stop Loss, Trailing Stop, Staged Take Profit, Advanced Adaptive Trailing Stop (AATS), and an RSI-style stop (RSIS)
Designed for non-repainting behavior on closed candles by basing execution-critical logic on previous-bar data
We are publishing this as an open-source template so traders and developers can leverage a professional-grade RM engine while integrating their own signal logic if they wish.
2. Quick Action Guide (TL;DR)
Best Timeframe:
4 Hours (H4) and above. This is a high-conviction swing-trading system, not a scalper.
Best Assets:
Volatile instruments that still respect market structure:
Bitcoin, Ethereum, Gold (XAUUSD), high-volatility Forex pairs (e.g., GBPJPY), indices with clean ranges.
Strategy Type:
Volatility-Adaptive Trend Following + Impulse Detection.
It hunts for genuine expansion out of ranges, not tiny mean-reversion nibbles.
Key Feature:
Renko Emulation on time-based candles.
We mathematically model Renko Bricks and overlay them on your standard chart to define:
“Equilibrium” zones (inside the brick structure)
“Breakout / impulse” zones (when price AND the impulse line depart from the bricks)
Repainting:
Designed to be non-repainting on closed candles.
All RM execution logic uses confirmed historical data (no future bars, no security() lookahead). Intrabar flicker during formation is allowed, but once a bar closes the engine’s decisions are stable.
Core Toggles & Filters:
Enable Longs and Shorts independently
Optional Weekend filter (block trades on Saturday/Sunday)
Per-module toggles: Stop Loss, Trailing Stop, Staged Take Profits, AATS, RSIS
3. Detailed Report: How It Works
A. The Strategy Logic: Superior RBR
Superior RBR builds its entry signal from multiple mathematical layers working together.
1) Adaptive Lookback (Volatility Normalization)
Instead of a fixed 100-bar or 200-bar range, the script:
Computes ATR-based volatility over a user-defined period.
Normalizes that volatility relative to its recent min/max.
Maps the normalized value into a dynamic lookback window between a minimum and maximum (e.g., 4 to 100 bars).
High Volatility:
The lookback shrinks, so the system reacts faster to explosive moves.
Low Volatility:
The lookback expands, so the system sees a “bigger picture” and filters out chop.
All the core “Range High/Low” and “Range Close High/Low” boundaries are built on top of this adaptive window.
2) Range Construction & Quick Ranges
The engine constructs several nested ranges:
Outer Range:
rangeHighFinal – dynamic highest high
rangeLowFinal – dynamic lowest low
Inner Close Range:
rangeCloseHighFinal – highest close
rangeCloseLowFinal – lowest close
Quick Ranges:
“Half-length” variants of those, used to detect more responsive changes in structure and volatility.
These ranges define:
The macro box price is trading inside
Shorter-term “pressure zones” where price is coiling before expansion
3) Renko Emulation (The Bricks)
Rather than using the Renko chart type (which discards time), this script emulates Renko behavior on your normal candles:
A “brick size” is defined either:
As a standard percentage move, or
As a volatility-driven (ATR) brick, optionally inhibited by a minimum standard size
The engine tracks a base value and derives:
brickUpper – top of the emulated brick
brickLower – bottom of the emulated brick
When price moves sufficiently beyond those levels, the brick “shifts”, and the directional memory (renkoDir) updates:
renkoDir = +2 when bricks are advancing upward
renkoDir = -2 when bricks are stepping downward
You can think of this as a synthetic Renko tape overlaid on time-based candles:
Inside the brick: equilibrium / consolidation
Breaking away from the brick: momentum / expansion
4) Impulse Tracking with Laguerre Filters
The script uses multiple Laguerre Filters to smooth price and brick-derived data without traditional lag.
Key filters include:
LagF_1 / LagF_W: Based on brick upper/lower baselines
LagF_Q: Based on HLCC4 (high + low + 2×close)/4
LagF_Y / LagF_P: Complex averages combining brick structures and range averages
LagF_V (Primary Impulse Line):
A smooth, high-level impulse line derived from a blend of the above plus the outer ranges
Conceptually:
When the impulse line pushes away from the brick structure and continues in one direction, an impulse move is underway.
When its direction flips and begins to roll over, the impulse is fading, hinting at mean reversion back into the range.
5) Fib-Based Structure & Swaps
The system also layers in Fib levels derived from the adaptive ranges:
Standard levels (12%, 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61%, 76.8%, 88%) from the main range
A secondary “swap” set derived from close-range dynamics (fib12Swap, fib23Swap, etc.)
These Fibs are used to:
Bucket price into structural zones (below 12, between 23–38, etc.)
Detect breakouts when price and Laguerre move beyond key Fib thresholds
Drive zSwap logic (where a secondary Fib set becomes the active structure once certain conditions are met)
6) Adaptive SuperTrend with K-Means-Style Volatility Clustering
Under the hood, the script uses a small k-means-style clustering routine on ATR:
ATR is measured over a fixed period
The range of ATR values is split into Low, Medium, High volatility centroids
Current ATR is assigned to the nearest centroid (cluster)
From that, a SuperTrend variant (STK) is computed with dynamic sensitivity:
In quiet markets, SuperTrend can afford to be tighter
In wild markets, it widens appropriately to avoid constant whipsaw
This SuperTrend-based oscillator (LagF_K and its signals) is then combined with the brick and Laguerre stack to confirm valid trend regimes.
7) Final Baseline Signals (+2 / -2)
The “brain” of Superior RBR lives in the Baseline & Signal Generation block:
Two composite signals are built: B1 and B2:
They combine:
Fib breakouts
Renko direction (renkoDir)
Expansion direction (expansionQuickDir)
Multiple Laguerre alignments (LagF_Q, LagF_W, LagF_Y, LagF_Z, LagF_P, LagF_V)
They also factor in whether Fib structures are expanding or contracting.
A user toggle selects the “Baseline” signal:
finalSig = B2 (default) or B1 (alternate baseline)
finalSig is then filtered through the RM state machine and only when everything aligns, we emit:
+2 = Long / Buy signal
-2 = Short / Sell signal
0 = No new trade
Those +2 / -2 values are what feed the Risk Management Engine.
B. The Risk Management (RM) Engine
This script features the Signal Lynx Risk Management Engine, a proprietary state machine built to separate Signal from Execution.
Instead of firing orders directly on indicator conditions, we:
Convert the raw signal into a clean integer (Fin = +2 / -2 / 0)
Feed it into a Trade State Machine that understands:
Are we flat?
Are we in a long or short?
Are we in a closing sequence?
Should we permit re-entry now or wait?
Logic Injection / Template Concept:
The RM engine expects a simple integer:
+2 → Buy
-2 → Sell
Everything else (0) is “no new trade”
This makes the script a template:
You can remove the Superior RBR block
Drop in your own logic (RSI, MACD, price action, etc.)
As long as you output +2 or -2 into the same signal channel, the RM engine can drive all exits and state transitions.
Aggressive vs Conservative Modes:
The input AgressiveRM (Aggressive RM) governs how we interpret signals:
Conservative Mode (Aggressive RM = false):
Uses a more filtered internal signal (AF) to open trades
Effectively waits for a clean trend flip / confirmation before new entries
Minimizes whipsaw at the cost of fewer trades
Aggressive Mode (Aggressive RM = true):
Reacts directly to the fresh alert (AO) pulses
Allows faster re-entries in the same direction after RM-based exits
Still respects your pyramiding setting; this script ships with pyramiding = 0 by default, so it will not stack multiple positions unless you change that parameter in the strategy() call.
The state machine enforces discipline on top of your signal logic, reducing double-fires and signal spam.
C. Advanced Exit Protocols (Layered Defense)
The exit side is where this template really shines. Instead of a single “take profit or stop loss,” it uses multiple, cooperating layers.
1) Hard Stop Loss
A classic percentage-based Stop Loss (SL) relative to the entry price.
Acts as a final “catastrophic protection” layer for unexpected moves.
2) Standard Trailing Stop
A percentage-based Trailing Stop (TS) that:
Activates only after price has moved a certain percentage in your favor (tsActivation)
Then trails price by a configurable percentage (ts)
This is a straightforward, battle-tested trailing mechanism.
3) Staged Take Profits (Three Levels)
The script supports three staged Take Profit levels (TP1, TP2, TP3):
Each stage has:
Activation percentage (how far price must move in your favor)
Trailing amount for that stage
Position percentage to close
Example setup:
TP1:
Activate at +10%
Trailing 5%
Close 10% of the position
TP2:
Activate at +20%
Trailing 10%
Close another 10%
TP3:
Activate at +30%
Trailing 5%
Close the remaining 80% (“runner”)
You can tailor these quantities for partial scaling out vs. letting a core position ride.
4) Advanced Adaptive Trailing Stop (AATS)
AATS is a sophisticated volatility- and structure-aware stop:
Uses Hirashima Sugita style levels (HSRS) to model “floors” and “ceilings” of price:
Dungeon → Lower floors → Mid → Upper floors → Penthouse
These levels classify where current price sits within a long-term distribution.
Combines HSRS with Bollinger-style envelopes and EMAs to determine:
Is price extended far into the upper structure?
Is it compressed near the lower ranges?
From this, it computes an adaptive factor that controls how tight or loose the trailing level (aATS / bATS) should be:
High Volatility / Penthouse areas:
Stop loosens to avoid getting wicked out by inevitable spikes.
Low Volatility / compressed structure:
Stop tightens to lock in and protect profit.
AATS is designed to be the “smart last line” that responds to context instead of a single fixed percentage.
5) RSI-Style Stop (RSIS)
On top of AATS, the script includes a RSI-like regime filter:
A McGinley Dynamic mean of price plus ATR bands creates a dynamic channel.
Crosses above the top band and below the lower band change a directional state.
When enabled (UseRSIS):
RSIS can confirm or veto AATS closes:
For longs: A shift to bearish RSIS can force exits sooner.
For shorts: A shift to bullish RSIS can do the same.
This extra layer helps avoid over-reactive stops in strong trends while still respecting a regime change when it happens.
D. Repainting Protection
Many strategies look incredible in the Strategy Tester but fail in live trading because they rely on intrabar values or future-knowledge functions.
This template is built with closed-candle realism in mind:
The Risk Management logic explicitly uses previous bar data (open , high , low , close ) for the key decisions on:
Trailing stop updates
TP triggers
SL hits
RM state transitions
No security() lookahead or future-bar access is used.
This means:
Backtest behavior is designed to match what you can actually get with TradingView alerts and live automation.
Signals may “flicker” intrabar while the candle is forming (as with any strategy), but on closed candles, the RM decisions are stable and non-repainting.
4. For Developers & Modders
We strongly encourage you to mod this script.
To plug your own strategy into the RM engine:
Look for the section titled:
// BASELINE & SIGNAL GENERATION
You will see composite logic building B1 and B2, and then selecting:
baseSig = B2
altSig = B1
finalSig = sigSwap ? baseSig : altSig
You can replace the content used to generate baseSig / altSig with your own logic, for example:
RSI crosses
MACD histogram flips
Candle pattern detectors
External condition flags
Requirements are simple:
Your final logic must output:
2 → Buy signal
-2 → Sell signal
0 → No new trade
That output flows into the RM engine via finalSig → AlertOpen → state machine → Fin.
Once you wire your signals into finalSig, the entire Risk Management system (Stops, TPs, AATS, RSIS, re-entry logic, weekend filters, long/short toggles) becomes available for your custom strategy without re-inventing the wheel.
This makes Superior RBR not just a strategy, but a reference architecture for serious Pine dev work.

Smart MACD Divergence ScannerOriginal Base Indicator: "CM_MacD_Ult_MTF" by ChrisMoody
This indicator builds upon ChrisMoody's excellent multi-timeframe MACD foundation and transforms it into a professional divergence scanner with advanced quality assessment and filtering capabilities. The original MACD visualization and MTF functionality have been preserved while adding completely new divergence detection, scoring, and filtering systems.
🎯 What Makes This Indicator Unique:
Smart MACD Divergence Scanner is a professional tool for detecting MACD-based divergences with an advanced filtering system and signal quality assessment. Unlike standard divergence indicators, this version includes innovative features:
Adaptive Quality Scoring System — each signal receives a score from 0 to 100 based on multiple factors
Volatility Filter — automatic signal suppression during low market volatility periods
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation — divergence verification on higher timeframe for increased reliability
Divergence Strength Analysis — calculation of percentage difference between price and indicator movement
Information Dashboard — detailed real-time signal statistics
Cooldown System — prevention of multiple consecutive signals
💡 How It Works:
The indicator uses the classic divergence concept — the divergence between price movement and the MACD oscillator. However, instead of simple pivot detection, the algorithm:
Scans the market for local extremes (pivots) on price and MACD histogram
Searches for divergences — when price updates low/high while MACD shows opposite movement
Assesses quality — analyzes divergence strength, volatility, higher timeframe confirmation
Filters noise — eliminates weak signals through threshold system and cooldown
Generates signal — only when all quality criteria are met
🔧 Key Parameters:
MACD Settings: Fast Length (12), Slow Length (26), Signal Length (9)
Divergence Detection: Pivot Lookback (5), Max Lookback Range (60), Min Divergence Strength (15%)
Quality Filters: Min Quality Score (60), Volatility Filter, MTF Confirmation, Signal Cooldown (5)
📊 How to Use:
Add indicator to chart — it will automatically start scanning
Configure filters — start with default settings, then adapt to your trading style
Watch for signals: 🟢 Green "BUY" label = bullish divergence, 🔴 Red "SELL" label = bearish divergence
Check quality score on labels (Q: XX)
Use information panel to monitor statistics and current market conditions
⚙️ Settings Guide:
For swing trading (4H-Daily): Increase Pivot Lookback to 7-10, set Min Quality Score to 70+
For day trading (15m-1H): Keep default settings, enable all filters
For scalping (1m-5m): Decrease Min Quality Score to 50, disable MTF Confirmation
For volatile markets (crypto): Increase Min Divergence Strength to 20-25%, enable Volatility Filter
⚠️ Important Notes:
Divergences are probabilistic signals, not guaranteed reversals
Use additional confirmation (support/resistance levels, volume, price action)
Adjust parameters for specific asset and timeframe
Signals appear with Pivot Lookback bars delay (retrospective confirmation)
On volatile markets, increase Min Quality Score to reduce false signals
Perfect Opens Perfect BoxesThis approach combines two methods of chart denoising:
1. The underlying chart uses the previous close as the open price for the next candle, which makes candlestick patterns easier to read.
2. The overlay reduces the visual noise of a line chart by representing the price range over a given interval as a box; the “wicks” on this chart are purely cosmetic, indicating that closing prices lay outside the range of the previous interval.
