HTF Big Candle ProjectionsWhat it does This indicator overlays higher-timeframe (HTF) “big candles” at the right edge of any chart and keeps them perfectly parallel with price while you zoom or pan. In End-of-Chart (EOC) mode, all objects are anchored by bar index (not time) and clamped to TradingView’s ≤500 bars into the future rule, so they move 1:1 with the chart—no drift, no lag. A fallback mode preserves time-anchored labels if you prefer them. Why it’s different / useful Most MTF overlays drift when you scale or pan because they anchor by time or mix coordinate systems. This script anchors every end-of-chart object (bodies, wicks, OHLC guide lines, labels, range readout) in bar-index space, so the overlay scales identically to real bars. It also includes a safe-clamp to the 500-bar forward limit, automatic TF mapping for D/W/M charts, and optional projections from the previous HTF candle. How it works (technical overview) HTF data: The indicator fetches HTF OHLC using request.security() (no lookahead) and updates the current HTF candle live on each chart bar. EOC placement (ON): Big candles are rendered with index-anchored boxes + wicks (box.new + line.new). X-positions are computed from bar_index + offset, then clamped to stay within the forward limit. Fallback placement (OFF): Label coordinates switch to time-anchored for familiarity; candle bodies remain parallel via index logic. OHLC helpers: Optional high/low/close guide lines extend right from the active HTF candle; OHLC labels and a range label can be placed to the side; a remaining-time widget shows how long until the HTF bar closes. No lookahead / repaint caveat: The current HTF candle naturally evolves until it closes; that’s expected behavior for real-time HTF overlays. Inputs & features Place at end of chart (EOC mode toggle): index-anchored layout with ≤500-bar clamp. Right Candle Timeframe: auto-map for D/W/M (D→W, W→M, M→3M) or set manually. Offsets & width: right-edge offset (bars), left-candle offset, body width (bars), minimum gap between candles. Wicks: show/hide (fallback mode draws wicks; index mode draws them via lines). OHLC guide lines: toggle H/L/C, choose style/width/color, with right-side projection distance. OHLC labels: side selection, text size, background/text colors, side offset. Range label: toggle, side offset, size; option to show pip units (1/mintick). Prev candle projections: optional HTF high/low lines from the left candle. Remaining-time panel: live countdown to the HTF bar close. Colors: bullish/bearish bodies and wicks. How to use Add to any chart (works best on intraday charts when viewing D/W/M candles). Keep “Place at end of chart” ON for perfect parallel tracking while zooming/panning. Choose Right Candle Timeframe (or use auto for D/W/M). Adjust Body Width and Label/Line Offsets to taste. If you push offsets too far, the script auto-clamps objects to respect the 500-bar forward limit. Optionally enable Prev Candle HL projections, OHLC labels, and the Range readout. Publish with a clean chart so the overlay is easy to understand at a glance. Notes & limitations Forward plotting limit: TradingView only allows drawing ≤500 bars into the future. The script clamps all end-of-chart objects automatically; if you request more, it will shorten projections to remain compliant. Sessions & symbols: Exotic sessions or illiquid symbols may produce uneven HTF boundaries. If needed, set the Right Candle Timeframe manually. No signals, no promises: This is a visualization tool—it does not generate trade signals or promise performance. Use it alongside your own analysis and risk management. Settings quick reference EOC mode: ON (index-anchored) / OFF (time-anchored labels). Right Candle TF: Auto D→W→M→3M or manual TF. Offsets: Right edge, left candle, label/range/line projections. Body Width: Candle thickness in bars. Lines/Labels: OHLC guides, OHLC labels, Range label. Prev HL: Previous HTF high/low projections. Timer: Remaining time in the current HTF bar. Colors: Bull/Bear bodies, wicks. Disclaimer For educational purposes only. Not financial advice. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always test on your own and trade responsibly. Author’s note on originality This script focuses on bar-index anchored EOC rendering with comprehensive forward-clamping and dual label modes, aiming to solve the common drift/desync issues seen in MTF overlays during chart scaling.

Wickless Heikin Ashi B/S [CHE]Wickless Heikin Ashi B/S \ Purpose. Wickless Heikin Ashi B/S \ is built to surface only the cleanest momentum turns: it prints a Buy (B) when a bullish Heikin-Ashi candle forms with virtually no lower wick, and a Sell (S) when a bearish Heikin-Ashi candle forms with no upper wick. Optional Lock mode turns these into one-shot signals that hold the regime (bull or bear) until the opposite side appears. The tool can also project dashed horizontal lines from each signal’s price level to help you manage entries, stops, and partial take-profits visually. How it works. The indicator computes standard Heikin-Ashi values from your chart’s OHLC. A bar qualifies as bullish if its HA close is at or above its HA open; bearish if below. Then the wick on the relevant side is compared to the bar’s HA range. If that wick is smaller than your selected percentage threshold (plus a tiny tick epsilon to avoid rounding noise), the raw condition is considered “wickless.” Only one side can fire; on the rare occasion both raw conditions would overlap, the bar is ignored to prevent false dual triggers. When Lock is enabled, the first valid signal sets the active regime (background shaded light green for bull, light red for bear) and suppresses further same-side triggers until the opposite side appears, which helps reduce overtrading in chop. Why wickless? A missing wick on the “wrong” side of a Heikin-Ashi candle is a strong hint of persistent directional pressure. In practice, this filters out hesitation bars and many mid-bar flips. Traders who prefer entering only when momentum is decisive will find wickless bars useful for timing entries within an established bias. Visuals you get. When a valid buy appears, a small triangle “B” is plotted below the bar and a green dashed line can extend to the right from the signal’s HA open price. For sells, a triangle “S” above the bar and a red dashed line do the same. These lines act like immediate, price-anchored references for stop placement and profit scaling; you can shift the anchor left by a chosen number of bars if you prefer the line to start a little earlier for visual alignment. How to trade it Establish context first. Pick a timeframe that matches your style: intraday index or crypto traders often use 5–60 minutes; swing traders might prefer 2–4 hours or daily. The tool is agnostic, but the cleanest results occur when the market is already trending or attempting a fresh breakout. Entry. When a B prints, the simplest rule is to enter long at or just after bar close. A conservative variation is to require price to take out the high of the signal bar in the next bar(s). For S, invert the logic: enter short on or after close, or only if price breaks the signal bar’s low. Stop-loss. Place the stop beyond the opposite extreme of the signal HA bar (for B: under the HA low; for S: above the HA high). If you prefer a static reference, use the dashed line level (signal HA open) or an ATR buffer (e.g., 1.0–1.5× ATR(14)). The goal is to give the trade enough room that normal noise does not immediately knock you out, while staying small enough to keep the risk contained. Take-profit and management. Two pragmatic approaches work well: R-multiple scaling. Define your initial risk (distance from entry to stop). Scale out at 1R, 2R, and let a runner go toward 3R+ if structure holds. Trailing logic. Trail behind a short moving average (e.g., EMA 20) or progressive swing points. Many traders also exit on the opposite signal when Lock flips, especially on faster timeframes. Position sizing. Keep risk per trade modest and consistent (e.g., 0.25–1% of account). The indicator improves timing; it does not replace risk control. Settings guidance Max lower wick for Bull (%) / Max upper wick for Bear (%). These control how strict “wickless” must be. Tighter values (0.3–1.0%) yield fewer but cleaner signals and are great for strong trends or low-noise instruments. Looser values (1.5–3.0%) catch more setups in volatile markets but admit more noise. If you notice too many borderline bars triggering during high-volatility sessions, increase these thresholds slightly. Lock (one-shot until opposite). Keep Lock ON when you want one decisive signal per leg, reducing noise and signal clusters. Turn it OFF only if your plan intentionally scales into trends with multiple entries. Extended lines & anchor offset. Leave lines ON to maintain a visual memory of the last trigger levels. These often behave like near-term support/resistance. The offset simply lets you start that line one or more bars earlier if you prefer the look; it does not change the math. Colors. Use distinct bull/bear line colors you can read easily on your theme. The default lime/red scheme is chosen for clarity. Practical examples Momentum continuation (long). Price is above your baseline (e.g., EMA 200). A B prints with a tight lower wick filter. Enter on close; stop under the signal HA low. Price pushes up in the next bars; you scale at 1R, trail the rest with EMA 20, and finally exit when a distant S appears or your trail is hit. Breakout confirmation (short). Following a range, price breaks down and prints an S with no upper wick. Enter short as the bar closes or on a subsequent break of the signal bar’s low. If the next bar immediately rejects and prints a bullish HA bar, your stop above the signal HA high limits damage. Otherwise, ride the move, harvesting partials as the red dashed line remains unviolated. Alerts and automation Set alerts to “Once Per Bar Close” for stability. Bull ONE-SHOT fires when a valid buy prints (and Lock allows it). Bear ONE-SHOT fires for sells analogously. With Lock enabled, you avoid multiple pings in the same direction during a single leg—useful for webhooks or mobile notifications. Reliability and limitations The script calculates from completed bars and does not use higher-timeframe look-ahead or repainting tricks. Heikin-Ashi smoothing can lag turns slightly, which is expected and part of the design. In narrow ranges or whipsaw conditions, signals naturally thin out; if you must trade ranges, either tighten the wick filters and keep Lock ON, or add a trend/volatility filter (e.g., trade B only above EMA 200; S only below). Remember: this is an indicator, not a strategy. If you want exact statistics, port the triggers into a strategy and backtest with your chosen entry, stop, and exit rules. Final notes Wickless Heikin Ashi B/S \ is a precision timing tool: it waits for decisive, wickless HA bars, provides optional regime locking to reduce noise, and leaves clear price anchors on your chart for disciplined management. Use it with a simple framework—trend bias, fixed risk, and a straightforward exit plan—and it will keep your execution consistent without cluttering the screen or your decision-making. Disclaimer: This indicator is for educational use and trade assistance only. It is not financial advice. You alone are responsible for your risk and results. Enhance your trading precision and confidence with Wickless Heikin Ashi B/S ! 🚀 Happy trading Chervolino

Trend lines indicator by ForexBeeEnhanced 3-Swing Trendline Zones - Complete Feature Guide WHAT THIS INDICATOR DOES This indicator automatically draws trendline zones on your chart using a 3-point validation system. Instead of just connecting any two price points like basic trendline tools, it waits for three swing points to confirm the trendline is valid before drawing it. FEATURE 1: SWING POINT DETECTION What it detects: Swing highs: Price points where the high is higher than surrounding candles Swing lows: Price points where the low is lower than surrounding candles These show up as small arrows on your chart labeled "SH" (swing high) and "SL" (swing low) Settings that control this: Swing Length : Default is 6, range 1-20 Higher numbers = fewer, more significant swing points Lower numbers = more swing points, including minor ones Example: Setting 5 means each swing point must be higher/lower than 5 candles on each side How to use this setting: On 1-minute charts: Use 5-10 to filter out noise On daily charts: Use 2-3 for more sensitivity Volatile markets: Increase the number Quiet markets: Decrease the number Please See the Below Images To See the difference of swing length of 6 and 8 Display control: Show Swing Points : Turn the arrows on/off Default: ON (you'll see the arrows) Turn OFF if arrows clutter your chart FEATURE 2: RETRACEMENT VALIDATION SYSTEM What this does: After finding two swing points, the system checks if the second swing represents a proper market retracement, not just random price movement. How it works: Finds the highest point between two swing lows (or lowest point between two swing highs) Calculates how much the second swing retraced from this extreme point Only accepts swings that retrace between your set percentages Settings that control this: Lower Limit % : Default 50%, range 0-100% Upper Limit % : Default 90%, range 0-100% These create a "valid retracement zone" Why this matters: Eliminates random trendlines that don't follow market structure Ensures trendlines represent actual retracement patterns Based on Elliott Wave and Fibonacci principles FEATURE 3: ATR-BASED ZONE WIDTH What ATR means: Average True Range measures how much price typically moves in a given period. Instead of fixed-width trendlines, this creates zones that adapt to market volatility. Settings that control this: Zone Width (ATR Multiple) : Default 0.3, range 0.1-1.0 ATR Length : Default 14, range 1-50 periods How zone width works: Multiplier 0.1 = Very narrow zones (tight around trendline) Multiplier 0.5 = Medium zones Multiplier 1.0 = Wide zones (accommodates more price movement) ATR Length explained: 14 periods = Uses last 14 candles to calculate average volatility Shorter periods (7) = More sensitive to recent volatility changes Longer periods (21) = Smoother, less sensitive to volatility spikes Practical impact: During high volatility: Zones automatically become wider During low volatility: Zones automatically become narrower Prevents false breakouts during normal market noise Creates realistic support/resistance areas instead of precise lines FEATURE 4: VISUAL ZONE SYSTEM Active Uptrend Zones: Green upper boundary line (solid, thick) Lime green lower boundary line (solid, thick) Green fill between lines (80% transparency) These represent dynamic support levels Active Downtrend Zones: Blue upper boundary line (solid, thick) Navy blue lower boundary line (solid, thick) Red fill between lines (80% transparency) These represent dynamic resistance levels Broken/Expired Zones: Gray/silver boundary lines (dashed, thick) Original fill color maintained (green for uptrend zones, red for downtrend zones) Shows historical trendlines that are no longer active FEATURE 5: BREAK DETECTION SYSTEM How breaks are detected: The system monitors when price violates the zone boundaries, indicating the trendline structure has failed. Settings that control this: Use Wick Break : True/False toggle TRUE: Break occurs when candle high/low touches zone boundary FALSE: Break occurs when candle close price crosses zone boundary Conservative vs Aggressive approach: Wick Break = TRUE (Aggressive) : - More sensitive, earlier signals - May produce more false breaks during volatile periods - Good for scalping and short-term trading Wick Break = FALSE (Conservative) : - Requires candle to close beyond zone - Fewer false signals, more reliable breaks - Better for swing trading and position trading What happens when zone breaks: Zone lines change from solid to dashed Zone lines change color to gray/silver Fill color remains original (green/red) for identification Zone stops extending forward Zone is removed from active monitoring FEATURE 6: ZONE EXPIRATION SYSTEM What expiration does: Allows trendlines to automatically become inactive after a set number of bars, even if they haven't been broken. Settings that control this: Use Zone Expiration : True/False toggle Zone Expiration (Bars) : Default 500, range 1-1000 FALSE: Zones run indefinitely until broken TRUE: Zones expire after specified number of bars Visual result: Expired zones look identical to broken zones Lines become dashed and gray/silver Fill colors remain original (green/red) FEATURE 7: MULTI-TIMEFRAME TREND ANALYSIS TABLE What the table shows: A small table on your chart that monitors trend conditions across four different timeframes simultaneously. Settings that control this: TF1, TF2, TF3, TF4 : Four customizable timeframes Default: 4H, 8H, 1D, 1W Table Position : 9 positions (top/middle/bottom + left/center/right) Text Size : Tiny, Small, Normal, Large, Huge How trend detection works: Uptrend Pattern : Current candle's high AND low are both higher than previous candle's high AND low on specified timeframes This creates higher highs and higher lows Shows consistent buying pressure Table displays green background with upward arrow (▲) Downtrend Pattern : Current candle's high AND low are both lower than previous candle's high AND low on specified timeframes This creates lower highs and lower lows Shows consistent selling pressure Table displays red background with downward arrow (▼) Range/Sideways Pattern : Current candle creates either inside bar or outside bar Inside bar: Current range smaller than previous candle Outside bar: Current range larger than previous candle Shows market indecision or consolidation Table displays orange background with diamond symbol (◆) No Clear Pattern : None of the above conditions are met Table displays gray background with horizontal line (⎯) How to interpret the table: All timeframes green (uptrend): Strong bullish alignment All timeframes red (downtrend): Strong bearish alignment Mixed colors: Conflicting timeframes, exercise caution Mostly orange: Market in consolidation phase Tooltip explanations: Hover over each cell for detailed description FEATURE 8: BACKGROUND COLOR SYSTEM What background colors show: Optional feature that colors your chart background based on the current timeframe's trend condition. Settings that control this: Show Background Colors : True/False toggle Background Transparency : 80-98% range Default: OFF (no background colors) Color scheme: Green background: Current timeframe showing uptrend Red background: Current timeframe showing downtrend Orange background: Current timeframe showing range/consolidation No background: No clear trend pattern Transparency levels: 80%: More visible background color 95%: Subtle background hint 98%: Very subtle background tint

MEMEC - Meme Coin Market Cap [Da_Prof]For this indicator, the meme coin market cap of the top meme coins are added together to get an estimate of the total meme coin market cap back to the first meme coin, DOGE. Meme.C does this natively on TradingView, but its data only goes back to 19 May 2025. For the indicator, MEME.C supersedes the addition of all the individual meme coins (i.e., from 19 May 2025 to present). The start of MEME.C is labeled on the chart by default, but can be removed by deselecting the label in the settings. After the creation of DOGE, but before data is available for Meme.C, the highest market cap meme coins are added together to estimate the meme coin market cap. The meme coins used by default are DOGE, SHIB, PEPE, BONK, FLOKI, PENGU, TRUMP, SPX6900, FARTCOIN, WIF, M, BRETT, B, MOG, APE, TURBO, DOG, and POPCAT. Users can select if they wish to disregard any or all of these coins. As of the creation of the indicator, DOGE, SHIB, and PEPE have CRYPTOCAP symbols on TradingView. Therefore, the true market cap of these coins is integrated into this indicator. The other meme coin market caps are estimated using price and the circulating supply as of 09/16/2025. I make no claims as to the indicator's exact accuracy. In fact, it isn't exactly accurate since I utilized the circulating supply on the day it was created, so for meme coins that have a changing supply, the market cap will be at least slightly inaccurate. Use this indicator at your own risk. To use the indicator, it is best to plot overlayed on the CRYPTOCAP:DOGE chart. You can decide whether or not to hide the DOGE market cap.

Emas cryptosmart## General Summary The Emas cryptosmart indicator is a technical analysis tool designed to provide a clear and comprehensive view of the market trend. It combines a long-term Hull Moving Average (HMA) to establish the overall trend with a faster, more responsive Triple Hull Moving Average (THMA) to identify short-term momentum. Its primary feature is the dynamic candle coloring, which offers immediate visual cues about price direction, simplifying trading decisions. ## Indicator Components This indicator is composed of two main lines: Hull 200 (HMA): The Long-Term Trend Anchor This line (dynamic lime/red by default) acts as a filter for the main market trend. Due to its 200-period setting, it moves smoothly and establishes the general context. Uptrend: When the Hull 200 is rising (lime color), it indicates the macro trend is bullish. Downtrend: When it is falling (red color), the macro trend is bearish. THMA 55: The Short-Term Momentum Line This line (dynamic aqua/orange by default) is a Triple Hull Moving Average. It is extremely fast and sensitive to recent price changes, designed to capture immediate momentum. This is the key line for the candle coloring and for identifying potential entry or exit points. ## How to Interpret It The primary strategy is to use the Hull 200 to define the direction for your trades and the THMA 55 to fine-tune your timing. Candle Coloring (Main Signal): Bullish Candles (default: aqua): When the price closes above the THMA 55, the candles turn to a bullish color. This signals that immediate momentum is positive and can be considered a buy signal or confirmation to stay in a long position. Bearish Candles (default: orange): When the price closes below the THMA 55, the candles turn to a bearish color. This indicates that immediate momentum is negative, suggesting a potential sell or an exit from a long position. Confluence Strategy: The highest-probability signals occur when both moving averages are aligned. Strong Buy Example: Look for a situation where the Hull 200 is rising (lime color) and wait for the candles to turn bullish as the price crosses above the THMA 55. Strong Sell Example: Look for a situation where the Hull 200 is falling (red color) and wait for the candles to turn bearish as the price crosses below the THMA 55. ## Key Features Visual Clarity: Automatic candle coloring eliminates the need to constantly interpret crosses, allowing for a quick read of the market's state. Dual Perspective: Offers a balanced view by combining a slow trend indicator with a fast momentum indicator. Reduced Lag: The use of Hull variants minimizes the delay typical of conventional moving averages (SMAs/EMAs). Fully Customizable: All colors, for both the lines and the candles, can be adjusted in the settings menu to fit your visual style.

oscillator fast cryptosmart (Bands on Scale)The oscillator fast cryptosmart is a high-sensitivity momentum indicator designed to generate signals more rapidly than many traditional oscillators, such as the MACD. It is engineered to detect potential price breakouts by analyzing short-term market cycles. At its core, the indicator uses a Detrended Price Oscillator (DPO) to remove the longer-term trend from price action, allowing it to focus purely on the underlying momentum cycles. It then calculates dynamic volatility bands around this oscillator line. Signals are generated when momentum breaks out from a normal range, providing traders with an early warning of a potential acceleration in price. How to Interpret the Signals: Buy Signal (Green Vertical Line): A buy signal is generated when the oscillator's main line (yellow) crosses above its upper statistical band. This indicates a sharp surge in positive momentum, suggesting a potential upward move is beginning. Sell Signal (Red Vertical Line): A sell signal is generated when the oscillator's main line crosses below its lower statistical band. This indicates a significant increase in negative momentum, suggesting a potential downward move is starting. By focusing on momentum breakouts rather than lagging moving average crossovers, the oscillator fast cryptosmart aims to provide an edge in identifying opportunities in fast-moving markets.

Ramen & OJ V1Ramen & OJ V1 — Strategy Overview Ramen & OJ V1 is a mechanical price-action system built around two entry archetypes—Engulfing and Momentum—with trend gates, session controls, risk rails, and optional interval take-profits. It’s designed to behave the same way you’d trade it manually: wait for a qualified impulse, enter with discipline (optionally on a measured retracement), and manage the position with clear, rules-based exits. Core Idea (What the engine does) At its heart, the strategy looks for a decisive candle, then trades in alignment with your defined trend gates and flattens when that bias is no longer valid. Entry Candle Type Engulfing: The body of the current candle swallows the prior candle’s body (classic momentum shift). Momentum: A simple directional body (close > open for longs, close < open for shorts). Body Filter (lookback): Optional guard that requires the current body to be at least as large as the max body from the last N bars. This keeps you from chasing weak signals. Primary MA (Entry/Exit Role): Gate (optional): Require price to be above the Primary MA for longs / below for shorts. Exit (always): Base exit occurs when price closes back across the Primary MA against your position. Longs: qualifying bullish candle + pass all enabled filters. Shorts: mirror logic. Entries (Impulse vs. Pullback) You choose how aggressive to be: Market/Bars-Close Entry: Fire on the bar that confirms the signal (respecting filters and sessions). Retracement Entry (optional): Instead of chasing the close, place a limit around a configurable % of the signal candle’s range (e.g., 50%). This buys the dip/sells the pop with structure, often improving average entry and risk. Flip logic is handled: when an opposite, fully-qualified signal appears while in a position, the strategy closes first and then opens the new direction per rules. Exits & Trade Management Primary Exit: Price closing back across the Primary MA against your position. Interval Take-Profit (optional): Pre-Placed (native): Automatically lays out laddered limit targets every X ticks with OCO behavior. Each rung can carry its own stop (per-rung risk). Clean, broker-like behavior in backtests. Manual (legacy): Closes slices as price steps through the ladder levels intrabar. Useful for platforms/brokers that need incremental closes rather than bracketed OCOs. Per-Trade Stop: Choose ticks or dollars, and whether the $ stop is per position or per contract. When pre-placed TP is on, each rung uses a coordinated OCO stop; otherwise a single hard stop is attached. Risk Rails (Session P&L Controls) Session Soft Lock: When a session profit target or loss limit is hit, the strategy stops taking new trades but does not force-close open positions. Session Hard Lock: On reaching your session P&L limit, all orders are canceled and the strategy flattens immediately. No new orders until the next session. These rails help keep good days good and bad days survivable. Filters & How They Work Together 1) Trend & Bias Primary MA Gate (optional): Only long above / only short below. This keeps signals aligned with your primary bias. Primary MA Slope Filter (optional): Require a minimum up/down slope (in degrees over a defined bar span). It’s a simple way to force impulse alignment—green light only when the MA is actually moving up for longs (or down for shorts). Secondary MA Filter (optional): An additional trend gate (SMA/EMA, often a 200). Price must be on the correct side of this higher-timeframe proxy to trade. Great for avoiding countertrend picks. How to combine: Use Secondary MA as the “big picture” bias, Primary MA gate as your local regime check, and Slope to ensure momentum in that regime. That three-layer stack cuts a lot of chop. 2) Volatility/Exhaustion CCI Dead Zone Filter (optional): Trades only when CCI is inside a specified band (default ±200). This avoids entries when price is extremely stretched; think of it as a no-chase rule. TTM Squeeze Filter (optional): When enabled, the strategy avoids entries during a squeeze (Bollinger Bands inside Keltner Channels). You’re effectively waiting for the release, not the compression itself. This plays nicely with momentum entries and the slope gate. How to combine: If you want only the clean breaks, enable Slope + Squeeze; if you want structure but fewer chases, add CCI Dead Zone. You’ll filter out a lot of low-quality “wiggle” trades. 3) Time & Market Calendar Sessions: Up to two session windows (America/Chicago by default), with background highlights. Good-Till-Close (GTC): When ON, trades can close outside the session window; when OFF, all positions are flattened at session end and pending orders canceled. Market-Day Filters: Skip US listed holidays and known non-full Globex days (e.g., Black Friday, certain eves). Cleaner logs and fewer backtest artifacts. How to combine: Run your A-setup window (e.g., cash open hour) with GTC ON if you want exits to obey system rules even after the window, or GTC OFF if you want the book flat at the bell, no exceptions. Practical Profiles (mix-and-match presets) Trend Rider: Primary MA gate ON, Slope filter ON, Secondary MA ON, Retracement ON (50%). Goal: Only take momentum that’s already moving, buy the dip/sell the pop back into trend. Structure-First Pullback: Primary MA gate ON, Secondary MA ON, CCI Dead Zone ON, Retracement 38–62%. Goal: Filter extremes, use measured pullbacks for better R:R. Break-Only Mode: Slope ON + Squeeze filter ON (avoid compression), Body filter ON with short lookback. Goal: Only catch clean post-compression impulses. Session Scalper: Tight session window, GTC OFF, Interval TP ON (small slices, short rungs), per-trade tick stop. Goal: Quick hits in a well-defined window, always flat after. Automation Notes The system is built with intrabar awareness (calc_on_every_tick=true) and supports bracket-style behavior via pre-placed interval TP rungs. For webhook automation (e.g., TradersPost), keep chart(s) open and ensure alerts are tied to your order events or signal conditions as implemented in your alert templates. Always validate live routing with a small-size shakedown before scaling. Tips, Caveats & Good Hygiene Intrabar vs. Close: Backtests can fill intrabar where your broker might not. The pre-placed mode helps emulate OCO behavior but still depends on feed granularity. Slippage & Fees: Set realistic slippage/commission in Strategy Properties to avoid fantasy equity curves. Session Consistency: Use the correct timezone and verify that your broker’s session aligns with your chart session settings. Don’t Over-stack Filters: More filters ≠ better performance. Start with trend gates, then add one volatility filter if needed. Disclosure This script is for educational purposes only and is not financial advice. Markets carry risk; only trade capital you can afford to lose. Test thoroughly on replay and paper before using any automated routing. TL;DR Identify a decisive candle → pass trend/vol filters → (optionally) pull back to a measured limit → scale out on pre-planned rungs → exit on Primary MA break or session rule. Clear, mechanical, repeatable.

It combines Open Interest (OI) changes with Funding Rates, normalizes them into a single oscillator using a z-score, and identifies potential market extremes. This provides traders with a powerful visual guide to spot when the market is over-leveraged (overheated) or when a significant deleveraging event has occurred (oversold), signaling potential reversals. How It Works Combined Data: The indicator tracks the rate of change in Open Interest and the value of Funding Rates. Oscillator: It blends these two data points into a single, smoothed oscillator line that moves above and below a zero line. Extreme Zones: Overheated (Red Zone): When the oscillator enters the upper critical zone, it suggests excessive greed and high leverage, increasing the risk of a sharp correction (long squeeze). A cross below this level generates a potential sell signal. Oversold (Green Zone): When the oscillator enters the lower critical zone, it indicates panic, liquidations, and a potential market bottom. A cross above this level generates a potential buy signal. Trading Strategy & Timeframes This oscillator is designed to be versatile, but its effectiveness can vary depending on the timeframe. Optimal Timeframes (1H and 4H): The indicator has shown its highest effectiveness on the 1-hour and 4-hour charts. These timeframes are ideal for capturing significant shifts in market sentiment reflected in OI and funding data, filtering out short-term noise while still providing timely reversal signals. Lower Timeframes (e.g., 1-min, 5-min, 15-min): On shorter timeframes, the oscillator is still a highly effective tool, but it is best used as a confluence factor within a broader trading system. Due to the increased noise on these charts, it is not recommended to use its signals in isolation. Instead, use it as a final argument for entry. For example, if your primary scalping strategy gives you a buy signal, you can check if the oscillator is also exiting the oversold (green) zone to add a powerful layer of confirmation to your trade.

Heikin Ashi Overlay SuiteHeikin Ashi Overlay Suite is designed to give traders more control and clarity when working with Heikin Ashi candles — whether you're analyzing trend strength, reducing chart noise, or simply improving your visual read of market momentum. It works by layering multiple types of HA overlays and color systems on top of your standard candlestick chart — without switching chart types. With dynamic gradient coloring, smoothing options, and a predictive line tool, this script helps you see not just what the current trend is, but how strong it is, and what it would take to reverse it. Heikin Ashi candles help reduce noise but this script goes further by: ➡️adding color intelligence that shows trend strength using a streak counter ➡️uses smoothing logic to clean up chop and whipsaws ➡️introduces a predictive close line — a subtle but powerful guide for anticipating trend flips before they happen Everything is configurable: colors, candle sources, overlays, predictive tools, and line styles. It’s built for traders who want visual speed, but don’t want to sacrifice signal quality. At its core, the script offers two powerful dropdown controls: 💥HA Color Scheme (Colors Regular Candles) — Applies Heikin Ashi-derived coloring to your regular candles based on trend direction or streak strength. This gives you instant visual context without switching to a separate chart type. 💥HA Candle Overlay Mode — Overlays actual Heikin Ashi-style candles directly on top of your chart, using your preferred source: ➡️Custom HA candles using internal formula logic ➡️TradingView’s built-in Heikin Ashi source with your own colors ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ 🎨 Custom + Gradient HA Coloring🎨 See trend strength at a glance: ➡️1–4 bar streaks → lighter tone ➡️5–8 bars → medium tone ➡️9+ bars → bold tone, ideal for momentum-based entries, exits, or scaling strategies → Choose from: ➡️Your own custom color set ➡️A simple 2-color base mode ➡️Or a 3-level gradient for progressive trend analysis (using the streak counter) 🏛️ TradingView Official Heikin Ashi Overlay Prefer native HA candles but want your own colors? This mode plots TradingView's Heikin Ashi source, with your personal bullish/bearish color scheme. ➡️Ensures consistency with built-in charts while still leveraging your visual style. 🌊 Smoothed Heikin Ashi Candles — Clarity in Chaos🌊 These aren’t your standard HA candles. Smoothed Heikin Ashi uses a two-step EMA process to transform chaotic price action into a cleaner, slower-moving trend structure: 🔹 First, it smooths the raw OHLC data using EMA — filtering out minor price fluctuations. 🔹 Then, it applies the Heikin Ashi transformation on top of the smoothed data. 🔹 Finally, it applies a second EMA smoothing pass to the HA values — creating ultra-smooth candles. 📈 What You See: Trends appear more fluid and consistent. Choppy ranges and fakeouts are visually suppressed. Minor pullbacks within a trend are de-emphasized, helping you avoid premature exits. 🎯 Best For: Swing traders looking to stay in positions longer. Intraday traders dealing with volatile or noisy instruments. Anyone who wants a "trend map" overlay without the distractions of raw price action. ✅ Reduces whipsaws ✅ Delivers high-contrast trend zones ✅ Makes reversals more visually apparent (but with a slight lag) 📍 Predictive Close Line📍 Shows where the real close must land to flip the current HA candle's color. ✅ Use it like predictive support/resistance ✅ Know if the trend is actually at risk ✅Visualize potential fakeouts or confirmation Color-coded based on current HA direction (bullish, bearish, or neutral). 📈 Tick by tick & bar-to-bar Plots📈 Provides 2 plot types: 1)1 plot that tracks a bar tick by tick 2)another plot that tracks the close from bar to bar For the bar to bar plot, you can choose between 2 options: ✅Full Plot — continuous line colored by HA trend ✅Recent Segments — color just the last few bars (configurable) to reduce chart clutter ✅ Customize width, number of bars, and visibility ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ 📘 How to Use this script📘 Imagine you're watching a choppy 15-minute chart on a volatile crypto pair — price action is messy, and it’s hard to tell if a trend is forming or just noise. Here’s how to cut through the chaos using Heikin Ashi Overlay Suite: 🔹 Step 1: Enable "Smoothed HA Candles" Start by turning on the smoothed candles. You’ll immediately notice the noise fades, and broader directional moves become easier to follow. It's like switching from static to clean trend zones. 🧠 Why: Smoothed HA uses a double EMA process that filters out small reversals and lets larger moves stand out. Perfect for sideways or jittery charts. 🔹 Step 2: Watch the Color Gradient Build As the smoothed candles begin to align in one direction, the gradient coloring (1–4, 5–8, 9+ streaks) gives you an at-a-glance visual of how strong the trend is. ✅ If you see 9+ same-colored candles? You’re likely in a mature trend. ✅ If it resets often? You’re in chop — consider staying out. 🔹 Step 3: Use the Predictive Close Line for Anticipation Now here’s the edge — this line tells you where the candle would have to close to flip colors. 📉 If price is hovering just above it during a bullish run — momentum may be weakening. 📈 If price bounces off it — the trend may be strengthening. This is excellent for confirming entries, exits, or spotting early warning signs. 🔹 Step 4: Switch Between Candle Modes as Needed You can flip between: ✅ Custom HA: Gradient candles with your colors ✅ TradingView HA: The official source with your styling ✅ None: Just color regular candles using the HA logic Use what fits your style — everything is modular. 🔹 Step 5: Tune It to Your Chart Lastly, tweak streak thresholds (currently only can do this within the source code), smoothing lengths, and line styles to match your timeframe and strategy. 🎯 Tailor The Settings to Fit Your Trading Style🎯 🔹 🧪 Scalper (1–5 min charts) If you’re trading fast intraday moves, you want quicker responsiveness and less lag. Try these settings: 🔸Smoothing Lengths: Use lower values (e.g. len = 3, len2 = 5) 🔸Candle Mode: Use Custom HA or TV’s HA for real-time color flips 🔸Predictive Close Line: Great for ultra-fast anticipation of color reversals 🔸Line Mode: Use Recent Segments mode to track short bursts of trend 🔸Colors: Use high-contrast, opaque colors for clarity ✅ These settings help you catch micro-trends and flip signals faster, while still filtering out the worst of the noise. 🔹 🧪 Swing Trader (30m–4h charts and beyond) If you’re looking for multi-hour or multi-day trend confirmation, prioritize clarity and staying in moves longer. Recommended setup: 🔸Smoothing Lengths: Medium to high values (e.g. len = 8, len2 = 21) 🔸Candle Mode: Use Smoothed HA Candles to block out intrabar chop 🔸Gradient Colors: Enable to visualize trend maturity and strength 🔸Predictive Close Line: Helps confirm trend continuation or spot early reversals 🔸Line Mode: Use Full Plot Line for clean HA-based trend tracking ✅ These settings give you a calm, clean view of the bigger picture — ideal for holding positions longer and avoiding early exits. 🔧 This script isn’t just a chart overlay — it’s a visual trend engine.🔧 Ideal For: 🔶 Trend-followers who want clean, color-coded confirmation 🔶 Reversal traders spotting exhaustion via predictive flips 🔶 Scalpers filtering noise with lighter smoothing 🔶 Swing traders using smoothed visuals to hold longer 📌 Final Note Heikin Ashi Overlay Pro is designed to help you see momentum, trend shifts, and market structure with greater clarity — not to predict price on its own. For best results: ✔️ Combine with support/resistance, moving averages, or price action patterns ✔️ Use Predictive Close as a confirmation tool, not a signal generator ✔️ Pair gradient colors with structure to gauge trend maturity ✔️ Always zoom out and check higher timeframes for context 🧠 Use this as part of a layered approach — not a standalone system. 🙏 Credits🙏 ⚡HA logic based on SimpleCryptoLife ⚡Smoothed HA concept adapted from a script by Jackvmk 💡💡💡Turn logic into clarity. Structure into trades. And uncertainty into confidence.💡💡💡
