ORB Pro w/ Filters + Debug + ORB Fib + Golden Pocket + HTF Trend
A professional Opening Range Breakout (ORB) toolkit designed for intraday traders who want precision entries, risk-managed exits, and layered confirmation filters. Built for futures, stocks, and ETFs (e.g. NQ, ES, QQQ).
🔎 Core Logic
This script plots and trades breakouts from the Opening Range (9:30 – 9:45 NY time), then applies multiple confirmation filters before signaling a LONG or SHORT setup:
ORB Box: Defines the first 15 minutes of market activity (customizable).
Breakout Candle Confirmation: Requires a candle close outside the ORB box.
Retest Confirmation: Price must retest the ORB edge within tolerance before triggering.
Trend Filter: EMA confirmation to align trades with intraday trend.
Higher-Timeframe Trend Filter: Optional (default: 45-minute EMA) to avoid countertrend trades.
Fibonacci Levels: Auto-plot retracements (0.236 → 0.786) for confluence and trade management.
Golden Pocket Retest (Optional): Adds an extra precision filter at 0.5–0.618 retracement.
⚙️ Default Settings (Optimized for Beginners)
These are the pre-configured inputs so traders can load and trade immediately:
ORB Session: 9:30 – 9:45 NY
✅ Require Candle Close Outside ORB
✅ Require Retest Confirmation (tolerance 0.333%)
❌ Require Volume Spike (off by default, optional toggle)
✅ Require EMA Trend (50 EMA intraday)
✅ Require Higher-TF Trend (45m, EMA 21)
❌ Higher-TF EMA slope required (off)
✅ Cooldown Between Signals (10 bars)
ORB % Range: Min 0.3%, Max 0.5%
Max Minutes After ORB: 180
✅ ORB-based Risk/Reward Stops & Targets (default: 2R)
Stop Loss: 0.5% (if not R:R)
Take Profit: 1% (if not R:R)
✅ Debug Overlay (shows why signals are blocked)
✅ Fibonacci Retracements Plotted
❌ Extensions (off by default, toggle if needed)
✅ Golden Pocket Retest available, tolerance 0.11 (optional)
📈 Signals
Green "LONG" Label: Valid breakout above ORB with trend confirmation.
Red "SHORT" Label: Valid breakdown below ORB with trend confirmation.
Blocked (debug text): Signal suppressed by filters (low volume, too late, no retest, etc.).
🎯 Trade Management
Default R:R is 2:1 (stop at ORB edge, TP projected).
For manual trading (e.g., Webull, IBKR), you can use the plotted TP/SL boxes directly.
Fibonacci + Golden Pocket give additional profit-taking levels and retest filters.
✅ Best Practices
Use 15m chart for main ORB entries.
Confirm direction with HTF trend (45m EMA by default).
Avoid signals blocked by “Low Volume” or “Too Late” (debug helps identify).
Adjust ORB % range for asset volatility (tight for ETFs, wider for futures).
🚀 Why ORB Pro?
This is more than a standard ORB indicator. It’s a professional breakout system with filters designed to avoid false breakouts, automatically handle risk/reward, and guide traders with clear visual signals. Perfect for both systematic day traders and discretionary scalpers who want structure and confidence.
👉 Recommended starting point:
Load defaults → trade the 15m ORB with EMA + HTF filters on → let the script handle retests and stop/target placement.

SuperTrend Optimizer Remastered[CHE] SuperTrend Optimizer Remastered — Grid-ranked SuperTrend with additive or multiplicative scoring
Summary
This indicator evaluates a fixed grid of one hundred and two SuperTrend parameter pairs and ranks them by a simple flip-to-flip return model. It auto-selects the currently best-scoring combination and renders its SuperTrend in real time, with optional gradient coloring for faster visual parsing. The original concept is by KioseffTrading Thanks a lot for it.
For years I wanted to shorten the roughly two thousand three hundred seventy-one lines; I have now reduced the core to about three hundred eighty lines without triggering script errors. The simplification is generalizable to other indicators. A multiplicative return mode was added alongside the existing additive aggregation, enabling different rankings and often more realistic compounding behavior.
Motivation: Why this design?
SuperTrend is sensitive to its factor and period. Picking a single pair statically can underperform across regimes. This design sweeps a compact parameter grid around user-defined lower bounds, measures flip-to-flip outcomes, and promotes the combination with the strongest cumulative return. The approach keeps the visual footprint familiar while removing manual trial-and-error. The multiplicative mode captures compounding effects; the additive mode remains available for linear aggregation.
Originally (by KioseffTrading)
Very long script (~2,371 lines), monolithic structure.
SuperTrend optimization with additive (cumulative percentage-sum) scoring only.
Heavier use of repetitive code; limited modularity and fewer UI conveniences.
No explicit multiplicative compounding option; rankings did not reflect sequence-sensitive equity growth.
Now (remastered by CHE)
Compact core (~380 lines) with the same functional intent, no compile errors.
Adds multiplicative (compounding) scoring alongside additive, changing rankings to reflect real equity paths and penalize drawdown sequences.
Fixed 34×3 grid sweep, live ranking, gradient-based bar/wick/line visuals, top-table display, and an optional override plot.
Cleaner arrays/state handling, last-bar table updates, and reusable simplification pattern that can be applied to other indicators.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Baseline: A single SuperTrend with hand-picked inputs.
Architecture differences:
Fixed grid of thirty-four factor offsets across three ATR offsets.
Per-combination flip-to-flip backtest with additive or multiplicative aggregation.
Live ranking with optional “Best” or “Worst” table output.
Gradient bar, wick, and line coloring driven by consecutive trend counts.
Optional override plot to force a specific SuperTrend independent of ranking.
Practical effect: Charts show the currently best-scoring SuperTrend, not a static choice, plus an on-chart table of top performers for transparency.
How it works (technical)
For each parameter pair, the script computes SuperTrend value and direction. It monitors direction transitions and treats a change from up to down as a long entry and the reverse as an exit, measuring the move between entry and exit using close prices. Results are aggregated per pair either by summing percentage changes or by compounding return factors and then converting to percent for comparison. On the last bar, open trades are included as unrealized contributions to ranking. The best combination’s line is plotted, with separate styling for up and down regimes. Consecutive regime counts are normalized within a rolling window and mapped to gradients for bars, wicks, and lines. A two-column table reports the best or worst performers, with an optional row describing the parameter sweep.
Parameter Guide
Factor (Lower Bound) — Starting SuperTrend factor; the grid adds offsets between zero and three point three. Default three point zero. Higher raises distance to price and reduces flips.
ATR Period (Lower Bound) — Starting ATR length; the grid adds zero, one, and two. Default ten. Longer reduces noise at the cost of responsiveness.
Best vs Worst — Ranks by top or bottom cumulative return. Default Best. Use Worst for stress tests.
Calculation Mode — Additive sums percents; Multiplicative compounds returns. Multiplicative is closer to equity growth and can change the leaderboard.
Show in Table — “Top Three” or “All”. Fewer rows keep charts clean.
Show “Parameters Tested” Label — Displays the effective sweep ranges for auditability.
Plot Override SuperTrend — If enabled, the override factor and ATR are plotted instead of the ranked winner.
Override Factor / ATR Period — Values used when override is on.
Light Mode (for Table) — Adjusts table colors for bright charts.
Gradient/Coloring controls — Toggles for gradient bars and wick coloring, window length for normalization, gamma for contrast, and transparency settings. Use these to emphasize or tone down visual intensity.
Table Position and Text Size — Places the table and sets typography.
Reading & Interpretation
The auto SuperTrend plots one line for up regimes and one for down regimes. Color intensity reflects consecutive trend persistence within the chosen window. A small square at the bottom encodes the same gradient as a compact status channel. Optional wick coloring uses the same gradient for maximum contrast. The performance table lists parameter pairs and their cumulative return under the chosen aggregation; positive values are tinted with the up color, negative with the down color. “Long” labels mark flips that open a long in the simplified model.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
Trend following: Use the auto line as your primary bias. Enter on flips aligned with structure such as higher highs and higher lows. Filter with higher-timeframe trend or volatility contraction.
Exits/Stops: Consider conservative exits when color intensity fades or when the opposite line is approached. Aggressive traders can trail near the plotted line.
Override mode: When you want stability across instruments, enable override and standardize factor and ATR; keep the table visible for sanity checks.
Multi-asset/Multi-TF: Defaults travel well on liquid instruments and intraday to daily timeframes. Heavier assets may prefer larger lower bounds or multiplicative mode.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Repaint/confirmation: Signals are based on SuperTrend direction; confirmation is best assessed on closed bars to avoid mid-bar oscillation. No higher-timeframe requests are used.
Resources: One hundred and two SuperTrend evaluations per bar, arrays for state, and a last-bar table render. This is efficient for the grid size but avoid stacking many instances.
Known limits: The flip model ignores costs, slippage, and short exposure. Rapid whipsaws can degrade both aggregation modes. Gradients are cosmetic and do not change logic.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Start with the provided lower bounds and “Top Three” table.
Too many flips → raise the lower bound factor or period.
Too sluggish → lower the bounds or switch to additive mode.
Rankings feel unstable → prefer multiplicative mode and extend the normalization window.
Visuals too strong → increase gradient transparency or disable wick coloring.
What this indicator is—and isn’t
This is a parameter-sweep and visualization layer for SuperTrend selection. It is not a complete trading system, not predictive, and does not include position sizing, transaction costs, or risk management. Combine with market structure, higher-timeframe context, and explicit risk controls.
Attribution and refactor note: The original work is by KioseffTrading. The script has been refactored from approximately two thousand three hundred seventy-one lines to about three hundred eighty core lines, retaining behavior without compiler errors. The general simplification pattern is reusable for other indicators.

Gap ZonesThis TradingView indicator automatically detects daily price gaps and plots them clearly on any timeframe (intraday or daily).
It helps visualize where unfilled gaps are sitting, track whether they’ve been filled, and control how far the zone extends.
Key Features
1. Daily Gap Detection
• Works even when you’re on intraday charts (uses daily OHLC data).
• Marks both gap up (potential support zones) and gap down (potential resistance zones).
2. Shaded Gap Zones
• Each gap is highlighted as a band (greenish for up, reddish for down).
• Option to turn shading off if you just want horizontal lines.
3. Hide When Filled
• Once price closes or touches the far side of the gap, it disappears (configurable: Touch vs Close).
4. Lookback Window
• Gaps only show if they occurred within the past X trading days (default: 30).
• Prevents your chart from being cluttered with ancient gaps.
5. Multiple Gaps Tracked
• Can track up to 5 recent gaps simultaneously.
• Oldest gaps “roll off” as new ones form.
6. Finite Right-Edge Guides
• Optional horizontal guide lines extend to the right, but only for a fixed number of bars (default: 50).
• Cleaner than infinite extensions.
7. Gap-Day Marker
• Optional vertical line drawn on the bar where the gap first occurred.
⸻
⚙️ Inputs & Settings
When you apply the indicator, you’ll see these options:
• Lookback (trading days): How far back to scan for gaps (default 30).
• Max gaps to show (1..5): How many simultaneous gap zones to display.
• Min gap size (% of prior close): Filter out tiny gaps (default 0.25%).
• Hide gaps once filled: Removes a gap from the chart once filled.
• Fill rule uses CLOSE (off = Touch):
• Touch = filled when price trades through the level intraday.
• Close = filled only when a candle close crosses it.
• Show shading: Toggle zone fills on/off.
• Show vertical marker on gap day: Toggle gap-day marker line.
• Show finite right-edge lines: Toggle horizontal lines extending right.
• Right line length (bars): How far those lines extend (default 50 bars).
⸻
🟢 How to Use It
1. Apply on Any Chart
• Works best on daily or intraday (5m, 15m, 1h).
• Gaps are always calculated from daily data, so intraday charts will show higher-timeframe gaps correctly.
2. Interpret Colors
• Green shading = Gap Up (often acts as support).
• Red shading = Gap Down (often acts as resistance).
3. Watch for Fills
• When price re-enters the gap zone, the indicator checks if it’s “filled” (based on your Touch/Close setting).
• If “Hide When Filled” is on, the zone vanishes.
4. Trade Context
• Many traders use gaps as targets (expecting a fill) or levels of support/resistance.
• Combined with your bull put/bear call spread strategies, it helps confirm strong levels.

CCI + MACD Signal MTF (2nd-cross)This custom indicator combines the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) and the MACD to generate trading signals.
Basic signals (dots):
A green dot is plotted when CCI is above +100 and MACD is positive.
A red dot is plotted when CCI is below –100 and MACD is negative.
These dots help visualize momentum alignment between the two indicators.
Second-cross signals (text + alert):
The indicator also tracks cycles of the CCI.
When CCI first moves above +100 and later falls back below +100, this is counted as one completed cycle.
The next time CCI crosses back above +100 (the second cross), if MACD is still positive, a “BUY” label is plotted and a buy alert is triggered.
Conversely, when CCI first moves below –100 and later rises back above –100, that is one completed cycle.
The next time CCI crosses back below –100 (the second cross), if MACD is negative, a “SELL” label is plotted and a sell alert is triggered.
Alerts:
Alerts are only fired on the second-cross events (BUY or SELL), making them rarer but potentially more reliable than the basic dot conditions.
Timeframe flexibility:
Both the CCI and the MACD can be calculated on custom timeframes independently of the chart’s timeframe.

FibPulse144 [CHE] FibPulse144 — ADX-gated 13/21 crossover with 144-trend regime and closed-bar labels
Summary
FibPulse144 combines a fast moving-average crossover with a 144-period trend regime and an ADX strength gate. Signals are confirmed on closed bars only and drawn as labels on the price chart, while an ADX line in a separate pane provides context. Color gradients are derived from normalized ADX, so visual intensity reflects trend strength without changing the underlying logic. The approach reduces false flips during weak conditions and keeps entries aligned with the dominant trend.
Motivation: Why this design?
Traditional crossover signals can flip repeatedly during sideways phases and often trigger against the higher-time regime. By requiring alignment with a slower trend proxy and by gating entries through a rising ADX condition, FibPulse144 favors structurally cleaner transitions. Gradient coloring communicates strength visually, helping users temper aggressiveness without additional indicators.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Baseline: Classic dual-MA crossover with unconditional signals.
Architecture differences:
Two-bar regime confirmation against a 144-period trend average.
Pending-signal logic that waits for regime and optional ADX approval.
ADX strength gate using the prior reading relative to a user threshold and earlier value.
Gradient colors scaled by an ADX window with gamma controls.
Price-chart labels enforced via overlay on an otherwise pane-based indicator.
Practical effect: Fewer signals during weak or choppy conditions, labels that appear only after a bar closes, and color intensity that mirrors trend quality.
How it works (technical)
The script computes fast and slow moving averages using the selected method and lengths. A separate 144-length average defines the regime using a two-bar confirmation above or below it. Crossovers are observed on the previous bar to avoid intrabar ambiguity; once a prior crossover is detected, it is stored as pending. A pending long requires regime alignment and, if enabled, an ADX condition based on the previous reading being above the threshold and greater than an earlier reading. The state machine holds neutral, long, or short until an exit condition or ADX reset is met. ADX is normalized within a user window, scaled with gamma, and mapped to up and down color palettes to render gradients. Labels on the price panel are forced to overlay, while the ADX line and threshold guide remain in a separate pane.
Parameter Guide
Source — Input data for all calculations. Default: close. Tip: keep consistent with your chart.
MA Type — EMA or SMA. Default: EMA. EMA reacts faster; SMA is smoother.
Fast / Slow — Fast and slow lengths for crossover. Defaults: 13 and 21. Shorter reacts earlier; longer reduces noise.
Trend — Regime average length. Default: 144. Larger values stabilize regime; smaller values increase sensitivity.
Use 144 as trend filter — Enables regime gating. Default: true. Disable to allow raw crossovers.
Use ADX filter — Requires ADX strength. Default: true. Disable to allow signals regardless of strength.
ADX Len — DI and ADX smoothing length. Default: 14. Higher values smooth strength; lower values react faster.
ADX Thresh — Minimum strength for signals. Default: 25. Raise to reduce flips; lower to capture earlier moves.
Entry/Exit labels (price) — Price-panel labels on state changes. Default: true.
Signal labels in ADX pane — Small markers at the ADX value on entries. Default: true.
Label size — tiny, small, normal, large. Default: normal.
Enable barcolor — Optional candle tint by regime and gradient. Default: false.
Enable gradient — Turns on ADX-driven color blending. Default: true.
Window — Bars used to normalize ADX for colors. Default: 100; minimum: 5.
Gamma bars / Gamma plots — Nonlinear scaling for bar and line intensities. Default: 0.80; between 0.30 and 2.00.
Gradient transp (0–90) — Transparency for gradient colors. Default: 0.
MA fill transparency (0–100) — Fill opacity between fast and slow lines. Default: 65.
Palette colors (Up/Down) — Dark and neon endpoints for up and down gradients. Defaults as in the code.
Reading & Interpretation
Fast/Slow lines: When the fast line is above the slow line, the line and fill use the long palette; when below, the short palette is used.
Trend MA (144): Neutral gray line indicating the regime boundary.
Labels on price: “LONG” appears when the state turns long; “SHORT” when it turns short. Labels appear only after the bar closes and conditions are satisfied.
ADX pane: The ADX line shows current strength. The dotted threshold line is the user level for gating. Optional small markers indicate entries at the ADX value.
Bar colors (optional): Candle tint intensity reflects normalized ADX. Higher intensity implies stronger conditions.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
Trend following: Use long entries when fast crosses above slow and price has held above the trend average for two bars, with ADX above threshold. Mirror this for shorts below the trend average.
Exits and stops: Consider reducing exposure when price closes on the opposite side of the trend average for two consecutive bars or when ADX fades below the threshold if the ADX filter is enabled.
Structure confirmation: Combine with higher-timeframe structure such as swing highs and lows or a simple market structure overlay for confirmation.
Multi-asset/Multi-TF: Works across liquid assets. For lower timeframes, consider a slightly lower ADX threshold; for higher timeframes, maintain or raise the threshold to avoid unnecessary flips.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Repaint/confirmation: Signals are based on previous-bar crossovers and are confirmed on bar close. No higher-timeframe or security calls are used. Intrabar markers are not relied upon.
Resources: The script declares `max_bars_back` of 2000, uses no loops or arrays, and employs persistent variables for pending signals and state.
Known limits: Crossover systems can lag after sudden reversals. During tight ranges, disabling the ADX filter may increase flips; keeping it enabled may skip early transitions.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Starting point: EMA, 13/21/144, ADX length 14, ADX threshold 25, gradients on, barcolor off.
Too many flips: Increase ADX threshold or length; increase trend length; consider SMA instead of EMA.
Too sluggish: Lower ADX threshold slightly; shorten fast and slow lengths; reduce the trend length.
Colors overpowering: Increase gradient transparency or reduce gamma values toward one.
What this indicator is—and isn’t
This is a visualization and signal layer that combines crossover, regime, and strength gating. It does not predict future movements, manage risk, or execute trades. Use it alongside clear structure, risk controls, and a defined position management plan.

3. How It Works {#how-it-works}Trend Detection Logic:IF Close > EMA → UPTREND (positive counting)
IF Close < EMA → DOWNTREND (negative counting)
Counting Mechanism:Example Uptrend:Candle 1: Close > EMA → Label: +1
Candle 2: Close > EMA → Label: +2
Candle 3: Close > EMA → Label: +3
Candle 4: Close < EMA → Label: -1 (trend changed!)
Example Downtrend:Candle 1: Close < EMA → Label: -1
Candle 2: Close < EMA → Label: -2
Candle 3: Close < EMA → Label: -3
Candle 4: Close > EMA → Label: +1 (trend changed!)
Key Insight:The higher the absolute number, the longer the trend has been running!4. Customization Options {#customization}Accessing Settings:

5. Trading Strategies {#strategies}Strategy 1: Trend Reversal TradingEntry Signals:
Buy: When counter changes from negative to +1
Sell: When counter changes from positive to -1
Confirmation:
Wait for +2 or -2 to confirm trend strength
Use additional indicators (RSI, MACD) for validation
Example:Candle: -5, -6, -7, -8, +1, +2 ← BUY HERE
Stop Loss: Below the -8 candle low
Target: When counter reaches +8 to +10
Strategy 2: Trend Continuation TradingEntry Signals:
Buy: Enter on pullbacks during uptrend (e.g., at +3, +5, +7)
Sell: Enter on bounces during downtrend (e.g., at -3, -5, -7)
Risk Management:
Avoid entering at high numbers (+15, -15) - trend may be exhausted
Example:Candle: +1, +2, +3 ← Small pullback, BUY
Continue: +4, +5, +6, +7
Exit: When counter resets to -1
Strategy 3: Trend Exhaustion DetectionWarning Signs:
Counter reaches +10 or higher → Uptrend may be overextended
Counter reaches -10 or lower → Downtrend may be overextended
Action:
Tighten stop losses
Take partial profits
Watch for reversal patterns (doji, engulfing)
Strategy 4: Multi-Timeframe AnalysisSetup:
Add indicator to 3 timeframes (e.g., 15m, 1h, 4h)
Look for alignment
Best Trades:15m: +1 (new uptrend)
1h: +5 (established uptrend)
4h: +3 (strong uptrend)
→ HIGH PROBABILITY BUY
6. Setting Up Alerts {#alerts}Built-in Alert Conditions:The script includes 2 automatic alerts:
"Uptrend Started" - Triggers when counter = +1
"Downtrend Started" - Triggers when counter = -1
How to Set Up Alerts:Step 1: Right-click on chart
Select "Add Alert"
Step 2: Configure Alert
Condition: Select "Trend Candle Counter"
Choose: "Uptrend Started" or "Downtrend Started"
Options:
Once per bar close (recommended)
Webhook URL (for automation)
Step 3: Notification Settings
✅ Popup
✅ Send email
✅ Push notification (mobile app)
✅ Play sound
Step 4: Create Alert
Click "Create"
Custom Alert Ideas:Alert for Specific Candle Numbers:
Notify when counter reaches +5 or -5
Notify when counter exceeds +10 or -10 (exhaustion)
7. Troubleshooting {#troubleshooting}Common Issues & Solutions:Issue 1: Labels are too cluttered
Solution:
Disable "Show Candle Numbers" in settings
Use larger timeframe
Reduce label size to "tiny"
Issue 2: Too many false signals
Solution:
Increase "Trend Detection Length" (e.g., 20, 50)
Wait for +2 or -2 confirmation
Combine with other indicators
Issue 3: Trend line doesn't match price action
Solution:
Adjust EMA length to match your trading style
Consider using different trend detection (SMA, HMA)
Issue 4: Indicator not showing on chart
Solution:
Check if it's in a separate pane - move to main chart
Refresh the page
Re-add the indicator
Issue 5: Counter seems delayed
Solution:
This is normal - indicator confirms on candle close
For faster signals, use lower timeframe
Reduce EMA length (but expect more noise)
8. Advanced Tips 💡Combining with Other Indicators:Best Combinations:
RSI + Trend Candle Counter
Buy at +1 when RSI > 50
Sell at -1 when RSI < 50
MACD + Trend Candle Counter
Confirm +1 with MACD bullish crossover
Confirm -1 with MACD bearish crossover
Volume + Trend Candle Counter
Strong trends (+1) should have increasing volume
Low volume at high numbers (+10) = exhaustion

3SMA (1H only) by tophengzkyThis script plots three Simple Moving Averages (SMA 10, 20, 50), but they are only visible when the chart timeframe is set to 1 hour (1H).
It helps traders focus on higher timeframe trend direction without cluttering charts on other timeframes.
SMA1 = 10 (white)
SMA2 = 20 (yellow)
SMA3 = 200 (red)
Works only on 1H timeframe
Useful for swing traders and intraday traders who rely on hourly trend confirmation.
why 1 hr only? the only purpose of this is just to know the bias of the market weather it will reverse or it will continue the trend. As long as the price action did not cross this 3 SMA's the trend will continue.
as a trend trader it is very useful this strategy.. make it simple!
