Chart patterns

Gann ArchitectThe Gann Architect is a quantitative geometric engine designed to solve the primary limitation of standard Gann tools: Scaling. Standard Gann Fans use fixed angles (e.g., 45 degrees for 1:1), which often fail when applied to volatile assets or different timeframes because they do not account for the specific price-to-time ratio of the asset. This indicator solves this by calculating a Dynamic Slope. It identifies the initial "Impulse Phase" (Anchor Low → First Major High) and mathematically "squares" the chart to fit that specific market structure. Key Features Dynamic Squaring: Automatically calculates the true 1:1 Master Line based on the asset's actual volatility, not an arbitrary angle. Quantitative Alerts: Includes a built-in alert system. You can set alerts for "Crossed 1:1" (Trend Break), "Structural Fail 1:2" (Support Break), or "Impulse Breakout 2:1". Real-Time Data Panel: A dashboard displays the exact price targets for the geometric levels, removing the need to eyeball the lines. Efficiency: Uses a circular buffer memory system to ensure high performance ("100% potential") without slowing down your chart. How to Use This tool is designed as a Trend Following & Structure Map, not a reversal signal. The 1:1 Line (Solid): This represents the "True Trend." In a strong bullish phase, price should respect this line as dynamic support. A confirmed close below this line often signals momentum loss. The 1:2 Line (Bottom Support): This acts as the "Structural Floor." If price loses the 1:1 but holds the 1:2, it is considered a healthy correction. A break below the 1:2 typically invalidates the geometric structure of the current cycle. The 2:1 Line (Top Resistance): This marks the "Impulse Zone." A break above this line suggests parabolic or over-extended behaviour. Settings Cycle Stiffness: Controls the sensitivity of the pivot detection. Increase this value (e.g., to 4 or 5) to filter out noise and focus on macro trends. Anchor Pivot #: Allows you to select which historical cycle bottom to anchor the geometry to (1 = most recent confirmed bottom). Slope Multiplier: Adjusts the aggressiveness of the fan. Default is 1.0 (Geometric Standard). Technical Disclosure (Repainting & Lag) This script utilises a Confirmed Pivot Detection system. Signal Lag: To ensure reliability, the geometric fans anchor to confirmed pivots. A pivot is only confirmed after Right Length bars have passed. Therefore, the fans will appear on the chart with a slight delay relative to the absolute low. Repainting: Once a pivot is confirmed and the fans are drawn, the lines for that specific cycle do not repaint history. However, if a new, lower low forms that invalidates the previous structure, the script will dynamically shift to the new anchor point to maintain geometric accuracy. Disclaimer This script is for educational and experimental purposes only. Geometric analysis is a mapping tool, not a guarantee of future price action. Always use proper risk management. Past performance of geometric levels does not guarantee future results.

MGC1! Sniper Levels [NY Midnight + PDH/PDL + VWAP]This script, titled "MGC1! Sniper Levels ," is a specialized institutional-grade technical indicator designed for intraday trading on Micro Gold (MGC1!) futures. It merges Time & Price theory with Statistical Volatility to create a comprehensive roadmap for high-probability "Sniper" entries. Core Technical Components NY Midnight Pivot: Automatically identifies and plots the New York Midnight opening price. This level serves as the "True Open" for the daily session, helping traders determine whether the market is in a Premium or Discount zone relative to the daily start. Previous Day Structure (PDH/PDL): Displays the Previous Day’s High and Low using a background security call. These levels are primary targets for Liquidity Sweeps (trapping retail traders) before a reversal occurs. Advanced Session VWAP: Calculates the Volume Weighted Average Price starting from the session open. Unlike a standard moving average, VWAP represents the true fair value based on actual capital commitment. Standard Deviation Extensions (SD 1, 2, 3): Plots three layers of volatility bands based on the variance of price and volume. SD1 & SD2: Act as dynamic support and resistance within normal market conditions. SD3 (Extreme Zones): Highlights the "Extreme Long" and "Extreme Short" zones, representing areas where 99.7% of price action is statistically contained, often leading to sharp mean-reversion moves. Key Features & Interface Customizable Labels: Includes a specific toggle to show or hide Standard Deviation labels. This allows for a cleaner chart when focusing on ICT/SMC price action while maintaining the colored "Zones" for visual context. Real-Time Vignettes: High-contrast labels appear at the right edge of the price action, providing the exact numerical value of every key level (VWAP, PDH, NY Midnight) for immediate order execution. Previous VWAP Close: Plots the final VWAP value from the prior session. This level often acts as a magnetic "fair value" target during the current session's open. Strategic Trading Application The script is built for the Gold Sniper MGC1! persona to identify "Smart Money" reversals. A typical setup involves waiting for price to reach an SD3 Extreme Zone that coincides with the PDH or PDL. Once the price "sweeps" these levels and shows a Market Structure Shift (MSS) back toward the VWAP, a high-probability trade is triggered.

Quasimodo (QML) Pattern [Kodexius]Quasimodo (QML) Pattern is a market structure indicator that automatically detects Bullish and Bearish Quasimodo formations using confirmed swing pivots, then visualizes the full structure directly on the chart. The script focuses on the classic liquidity-grab narrative of the QML: a sweep beyond a prior swing (the Head) followed by a decisive market structure break (MSB), leaving behind a clearly defined reaction zone between the Left Shoulder and the Head. Detection is built on pivot highs and lows, so patterns are evaluated only after swing points are validated. Once a valid 4 pivot sequence is identified, the indicator draws the pattern legs, highlights the internal triangle area to emphasize the grab, marks the MSB leg, and projects a QML zone that can be used as a potential area of interest for retests. This tool is designed for traders who work with structure, liquidity concepts, and reversal/continuation triggers, and who want a clean, repeatable QML visualization without manually marking swings. 🔹 Features 🔸 Confirmed Pivot Based Structure Mapping The script uses classic built-in pivot logic to detect swing highs and swing lows. 🔸 Automatic Bullish and Bearish QML Detection The indicator evaluates the most recent 4 pivots and checks for a valid alternating sequence (High-Low-High-Low or Low-High-Low-High). When the sequence matches QML requirements, the script classifies the setup as bullish or bearish: Bullish logic (structure reversal up): - Left Shoulder is a pivot Low - Head is a lower Low than the Left Shoulder (liquidity sweep) - MSB pivot exceeds the Reaction pivot Bearish logic (structure reversal down): - Left Shoulder is a pivot High - Head is a higher High than the Left Shoulder (liquidity sweep) - MSB pivot breaks below the Reaction pivot 🔸 Full Pattern Visualization (Legs + Highlighted Core) When a pattern triggers, the script draws: Three main legs: Left Shoulder to Reaction, Reaction to Head, Head to MSB A shaded triangular highlight over the internal structure to make the liquidity-grab shape easy to spot at a glance 🔸 QML Zone Projection A QML Zone box is drawn using the price range defined between the Left Shoulder and the Head, then extended to the right to remain visible as price develops. This zone is intended to act as a practical reference area for potential retests and reaction planning after MSB confirmation. 🔸 MSB Emphasis A dotted MSB line is drawn between the Reaction point and the MSB point to visually emphasize the confirmation leg that completes the pattern logic. 🔸 Clean Point Tagging and Directional Labeling Key points are labeled directly on the chart: - “LS” at the Left Shoulder - “Head” at the sweep pivot - “MSB” at the break pivot A directional label (“Bullish QML” or “Bearish QML”) is also printed to quickly identify the detected bias. 🔸 Configurable Visual Style All main visual components are user configurable: - Bullish and bearish colors - Line width - Label size 🔸 Efficient Update Logic Pattern checks are only performed when a new pivot is confirmed, avoiding unnecessary repeated calculations on every bar. The most recent pattern’s projected elements (zone and label positioning) are updated as new bars print to keep the latest setup readable. 🔹 Calculations This section summarizes the core logic used for detection and plotting. 1. Pivot Detection (Swing Highs and Lows) The script relies on confirmed pivots using the user inputs: Left Bars: how many bars must exist to the left of the pivot Right Bars: how many bars must exist to the right to confirm it float ph = ta.pivothigh(leftLen, rightLen) float pl = ta.pivotlow(leftLen, rightLen) When a pivot is confirmed, its true bar index is the pivot bar, not the current bar, so the script stores: bar_index 2. Pivot Storage and History Window Each pivot is stored as a structured object containing: - price - index - isHigh (true for pivot high, false for pivot low) A rolling history is maintained (up to 50 pivots) to keep processing stable and memory usage controlled. 3. Sequence Validation (Alternation Check) The pattern evaluation always uses the latest 4 pivots: p0: Left Shoulder candidate p1: Reaction candidate p2: Head candidate p3: MSB candidate Before checking bullish/bearish rules, the script enforces alternating pivot types: bool correctSequence = (p0.isHigh != p1.isHigh) and (p1.isHigh != p2.isHigh) and (p2.isHigh != p3.isHigh) This prevents invalid structures like consecutive highs or consecutive lows from being interpreted as QML. 4. Bullish QML Conditions A bullish QML is evaluated when the Left Shoulder is a Low: Head must be lower than Left Shoulder (sweep) MSB must be higher than Reaction (break) if not p0.isHigh if p2.price < p0.price and p3.price > p1.price // Bullish QML confirmed Interpretation: p2 < p0 represents the liquidity grab below the prior swing low p3 > p1 represents the market structure break above the reaction high 5. Bearish QML Conditions A bearish QML is evaluated when the Left Shoulder is a High: Head must be higher than Left Shoulder (sweep) MSB must be lower than Reaction (break) if p0.isHigh if p2.price > p0.price and p3.price < p1.price // Bearish QML confirmed Interpretation: p2 > p0 represents the liquidity grab above the prior swing high p3 < p1 represents the market structure break below the reaction low 6. Drawing Logic (Structure, Highlight, Zone, Labels) When confirmed, the script draws: Three connecting legs (LS to Reaction, Reaction to Head, Head to MSB) A shaded triangle using a transparent “ghost” line to enable filling A dotted MSB emphasis line between Reaction and MSB A QML Zone box spanning the LS to Head price range and projecting to the right Point labels: LS, Head, MSB A direction label: “Bullish QML” or “Bearish QML” 7. Latest Pattern Extension To keep the newest setup readable, the script updates the most recently detected pattern by extending its projected elements as new bars print: QML zone right edge is pushed forward The main label x position is pushed forward This keeps the last identified QML zone visible as price evolves, without having to redraw historical patterns on every bar.

EURUSD | Yield Curve Flip Strategy (2s10s State Flips)Strategy Core (Concept) The strategy trades EURUSD exclusively when the US yield curve regime (2Y/10Y) flips into a new, clearly bullish or bearish regime. The core assumption is that re-pricing in the US yield curve (rather than individual data points) is a robust driver of USD strength or weakness and can act as a structural trigger for trend changes. ⸻ Data Basis • Uses US 2Y Yield (TVC:US02Y) and US 10Y Yield (TVC:US10Y). • The 2s10s curve is calculated as: curveUS = US10Y – US2Y • Regime assessment is based on the N-day change (default: 5 days), calculated on true rates bars (not intraday noise). ⸻ Regime Detection (Correct Bond Logic) First, the strategy checks whether the curve has significantly steepened or flattened over the lookback period: • Steepener if Δ(2s10s) > thrCurve (default: +0.10 percentage points = 10 bp) • Flattener if Δ(2s10s) < −thrCurve Next, a leg confirmation determines the specific type of steepener/flattener (default thrLeg = 5 bp): Bull Steepener • Curve steepens because yields fall, with the 2Y falling more (risk-off / rate-cut pricing) Bear Steepener • Curve steepens because yields rise, with the 10Y rising more (reflation / term-premium move) Bull Flattener • Curve flattens because yields fall, with the 10Y falling more (growth shock / long-end rally) Bear Flattener • Curve flattens because yields rise, with the 2Y rising more (hawkish repricing / front-end up) Important: By default, a Bear Steepener is not treated as a bearish signal, unless allowBearSteepForShort is enabled. ⸻ State Machine (Memory + Flip Triggers) The strategy maintains a persistent state variable curveState: • +1 = bullish • −1 = bearish • 0 = neutral The state is updated only on a new rates bar (daily rates when tfRates = "D"), avoiding intraday noise. A trade is generated only on a true regime flip: • flipToBull: new state turns bullish and the previous state was bearish (or neutral, if allowed) • flipToBear: new state turns bearish and the previous state was bullish (or neutral, if allowed) The option enterFromNeutral controls whether the first clear regime emerging from neutral is traded. The option onlyOnNewRatesBar ensures signals occur only when a new rates bar is printed, providing clean timing. ⸻ Trading Rules (Entry / Exit) There are no stops, targets, or trailing mechanisms. The strategy is a pure regime-switching / reversal system: • On flipToBull • Close short (“S”) • Open long (“L”) • On flipToBear • Close long (“L”) • Open short (“S”) Positions are therefore held until the next regime flip. ⸻ Parameter Interpretation • N: Smoothing / inertia. Smaller = faster but noisier; larger = more stable but later. • thrCurve: Minimum curve move required to define a regime. • thrLeg: Minimum move of the confirming leg (2Y or 10Y) to reduce misclassification. • allowBearSteepForShort: Makes the system more aggressive (more bearish signals), but represents a different macro case. • enterFromNeutral: Increases trade frequency by trading the first regime impulse. ⸻ What You See on the Chart • Background shading: • Green for bullish state • Red for bearish state • The curve and Δ-curve are plotted but hidden (display=none), mainly for debugging and analysis.

Gold Smart Scalper AI V21. The "Red Zone" (News Management) The strategy logic does not "know" when the Federal Reserve is speaking. Rule: Disable the strategy or stop taking signals 15 minutes before and after high-impact news (CPI, NFP, FOMC). Why: During these times, Gold can move $30 in seconds. Slippage will cause your $1.50 Stop Loss to execute much further away, leading to massive drawdown. 2. Session Selection Gold "Scalping" requires high liquidity and tight spreads. Discretionary Filter: Only trade during the London/New York overlap (13:00 – 17:00 UTC). Avoid: The late Asian session or Sunday market open. Spreads often widen to $0.50–$1.00, meaning you are already down 30-50% of your Stop Loss the moment you enter. 3. Market "Mood" (Trend vs. Range) Trend Context: If the 50 EMA (the White line) is completely flat, the market is in a "Bracket." In this state, EMA crossovers generate many false signals. The Adjustment: Discretionary traders wait for the 50 EMA to show a clear slope (up or down) before trusting the 9/21 crossover signals.

Scalping Signals with MTF Fibo BandsThis indicator is a scalping / intraday signal system built on Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Fibonacci Bands, combined with an RSI midline filter and an optional direction-lock mechanism to reduce consecutive losing entries. 🔹 What does this indicator do? It plots two independent Fibonacci Band sets (A & B), each calculated from a higher timeframe SMA + ATR. Entry zones are defined between Band 2 and Band 3, representing statistically extreme price areas. You can choose to generate signals from: Band A only Band B only BOTH (A + B confirmation) 📈 Entry Logic LONG Price closes inside the Lower Zone (between Fib2 Lower & Fib3 Lower) RSI is above the midline (default 50) SHORT Price closes inside the Upper Zone (between Fib2 Upper & Fib3 Upper) RSI is below the midline (default 50) 🟧 Direction Lock System If enabled, the indicator locks the trade direction when a position hits Stop Loss before reaching TP1. This prevents repeated entries in the same direction during unfavorable conditions. 🔓 Unlock Logic The lock can be removed when: RSI crosses back over the midline (RSI > 50 for LONG, RSI < 50 for SHORT) AND price closes again inside the valid Band 2–3 zone With the optional setting enabled, a new entry can occur on the same candle 🛑 Stop Loss Logic (Important) This indicator uses price-action-based stop logic, not fixed pip stops. 1️⃣ Before TP1 LONG: Two consecutive candle closes below Fib3 Lower SHORT: Two consecutive candle closes above Fib3 Upper ⚠️ Because SL depends on candle closes, you must monitor lower timeframes (1m or below) to react quickly and avoid delayed exits. 2️⃣ After TP1 (Break-Even Protection) Once TP1 is touched: SL automatically shifts to Break-Even (entry price) Any return to entry will close the position ⚠️ Usage Warning This indicator is NOT designed for sharp, explosive, or news-driven moves Avoid using it during: High-impact news Extremely fast impulsive candles Sudden volatility spikes Best performance is achieved in structured price action environments, not chaotic market conditions.

MGC1! - Stats jour du Weekly High/Low Lun VenIndicator Name: Weekly High/Low Day Statistics (Probability Dashboard) Description: This indicator provides a statistical edge by analyzing historical price action to determine which day of the week is most likely to form the Weekly High or the Weekly Low. Designed for intraday traders and swing traders, this tool helps you anticipate the structure of the weekly candle. By understanding the probabilities of when the extremums (HOD/LOD of the week) usually occur, you can better align your trade setups with the true weekly expansion. Key Features: Historical Analysis: Calculates statistics based on a user-defined lookback period (default is 104 weeks / 2 years) to ensure statistical significance. Probability Dashboard: Displays a clean table on the chart showing the percentage chance for each day (Monday to Friday) to be the High or Low of the week. Rolling Window: Automatically updates data at the close of every week to keep probabilities current. How to Use (ICT/SMC Context): Weekly Profiles: Use this data to validate "Classic Tuesday Low" or "Wednesday/Thursday Reversal" profiles. Bias Confirmation: If the statistics show a 40% chance of the Weekly Low forming on a Tuesday, and price is diving into a Higher Timeframe POI on Tuesday morning, this adds high-probability confluence to your long setups. Targeting: If the Weekly High typically forms on Thursday and it is currently Wednesday, you can hold runners for an expansion into the next day.

Trend SignalSystem Trend Signal — What It Does Shows you when your trading system says "be long" vs "stay out" — with a trailing line and buy/sell labels only when the state flips. The Rules Built In: BUY state requires ALL of these: Price above 50-DMA (intermediate trend up) 10-DMA above 20-DMA (short-term trend confirmed) Sell/Buy Pressure Ratio below 1.5 AND flattening or falling (sellers not aggressive) RSI above 30 and not making lower lows (momentum OK) SELL state triggers on ANY of these : Price drops below 50-DMA (trend broken) Pressure Ratio spikes above 2.0 (heavy selling) RSI making lower lows AND below 40 (momentum failing) What You See: "Buy" label appears only when state flips from sell → buy "Sell" label appears only when state flips from buy → sell No spam. One label per flip. The Trailing Line: Uses ATR to set distance from price. In buy state: line = close - (ATR × 2.0), ratchets up only In sell state: line = close + (ATR × 2.0), ratchets down only

EMA/SMA Full color signal candles💡 What It Does: The indicator calculates and plots the 21-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and the 30-period Simple Moving Average (SMA). It then analyzes the closing price of each candle and colors the entire candlestick (body and border) according to pre-defined trend conditions. This visualization allows traders to identify strong trend environments versus periods of consolidation or indecision at a glance, removing the need to constantly check the price relationship manually. 🎨 Color Conditions and Meaning: The indicator uses three distinct color states to signal the market's current momentum: Color,Condition,Market Interpretation 🟢 GREEN,Closing Price is ABOVE both the 21 EMA AND the 30 SMA.,Strong Bullish Trend: Suggests high momentum and confirmation of an uptrend. Ideal for long bias. 🔴 RED,Closing Price is BELOW both the 21 EMA AND the 30 SMA.,Strong Bearish Trend: Suggests high downward pressure and confirmation of a downtrend. Ideal for short bias. ⚫ GRAY,"Closing Price is in any other state (e.g., between the two MAs, or under one and over the other).","Neutral / Consolidation: Indicates uncertainty, low momentum, or potential trend exhaustion/reversal. Caution is advised." 🔧 Customization Options:The indicator is fully customizable, allowing users to fine-tune the periods to match their preferred trading style (e.g., scalping, swing trading).Dĺžka EMA (Length EMA): Allows you to change the period for the Exponential Moving Average (default is 21).Dĺžka SMA (Length SMA): Allows you to change the period for the Simple Moving Average (default is 30). I added also Extra 4 EMA lines to have extra edge.
