Paste a short or long data block (GEX walls, IM low/high, HVL) and the tool parses and plots them, with optional context (Basis CT/BW, VIX term) and a 09:30 NY / manual rebase workflow with drift alert.
ETF→Symbol GEX & IM Mapper plots option-driven reference levels on any symbol by mapping ETF-based prices (SPY/QQQ/IWM/DIA) to the current chart using a live Diff ratio. Paste a short or long data block and the tool parses:
• GEX walls: Call/Put L1 plus extra L2/L3 (width/style configurable)
• IM range: low/high implied move, with optional SDV bands (±1/±2/±3σ)
• HVL: single level with optional zone fill (auto-anchored to IM or GEX L1)
• BS levels: auxiliary reference lines (count, labels, style)
Context engine:
• Mapping/anchor: 09:30 NY rebase or manual rebase; drift alert suggests rebase when needed
• Basis (CT/BW): Diff-based bias (smoothing + threshold)
• VIX term: spot vs 3M to infer contango/backwardation
• Auto GEX sign: from VIX term, Basis, or price vs HVL
Display controls:
• Line span by bars/days/full; label overlap avoidance; per-group styles (colors/width/style); InfoBox with BASE/VIX/GEX snapshot

If you have questions, send me a private message on TradingView.
This tool maps option-derived levels onto the chart:
• You paste a fresh data block with your latest levels (GEX walls, IM low/high, HVL).
• The indicator parses that block and maps ETF prices (SPY/QQQ/IWM/DIA) to the current symbol using a live Diff ratio.
• Rebase at 09:30 NY (or manually) to minimize drift; a drift alert suggests when to rebase.
• Optional context (Basis, VIX term) helps infer the GEX environment.
Note: No external data is fetched; levels come from your pasted block or manual inputs. Update your block periodically (e.g., every 15 minutes in RTH) if you follow an intraday workflow.

/MNQ WAVE (Fusion B-L/S)MNQ WAVE - Fusion Long/Short (EMA, VWAP, WSA, Regime/ATR)
Description
What it is
MNQ WAVE is a fusion strategy for intraday MNQ. It doesn’t take every EMA cross; it waits for price context near VWAP, a simple Weinstein-style trend/volume check (WSA), and a volatility/trend filter. You can run the Regime filter (ADX + ATR relative) or use an ATR threshold fallback. Session blocks help avoid thin/roll periods. Exits combine fixed SL/TP with trailing stops and an optional bars-based auto-close.
Why this mashup
Each piece plays a different role:
EMA cross = timing.
VWAP proximity = avoid chasing stretched moves.
WSA = structure (slope) + healthy volume.
Regime/ATR = align with trend/volatility states.
Together they screen out many low-quality crosses that a single indicator would allow.
How it trades
Long: fast EMA crosses above slow (flat-only) + above/near VWAP within tolerance + WSA long OK + Regime (or ATR) OK + Session OK.
Short: fast crosses below slow (flat-only, and fast < slow) + below/near VWAP + WSA short OK + Regime (or ATR) OK + Session OK.
Risk (defaults): Long SL 1.4%, TP 2.7%, trailing starts at +0.5% with 0.4% trail. Short SL 1.4%, TP 4.5%, trailing starts at −0.5% with 0.4%. Optional auto-close by bars (default off; max 20).
Signals / alerts
Works with either Fills (alert_message) or alert() only. Payloads include entry/SL/TP and a compact indicators block (ATR/ADX) for external routing. No links or promo.
Defaults used in this publication
These match the script so results aren’t misleading:
Initial Capital: $10,000
Order Size: 1 contract (fixed)
Commission: $1.42 per order (cash_per_order - Tastytrade)
Slippage: set in Properties before publishing (recommend ≥ 1 tick for MNQ)
Process orders on close: false
Calc on every tick: false
Backtest fill limits assumption: 0
Minimum required capital: $10,000
Tip: keep per-trade risk within ≤ 5–10% of equity by adjusting size.
Backtest scope & sample size
Designed for intraday MNQ (often used on 5-minute charts, but timeframe is up to you). Aim for >100 trades using a multi-year window. Regime filtering may reduce trade count but often improves quality, no drawdowns observed in the evaluated backtest (where allowed under platform rules, using realistic commissions & slippage); not a guarantee of future results.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Resumen
Estrategia intradía para MNQ que filtra cruces EMA con proximidad a VWAP, un chequeo de tendencia/volumen tipo Weinstein (WSA) y un filtro de régimen (ADX + ATR relativo) o ATR simple. Incluye bloqueos de sesión NY, SL/TP fijos, trailing y cierre opcional por conteo de barras.
Cómo entra y sale
Largos: cruce EMA alcista (solo en flat) + precio por encima/cerca de VWAP dentro de la tolerancia + WSA largo OK + Régimen/ATR OK + Sesión OK.
Cortos: cruce EMA bajista (solo en flat, fast < slow) + precio por debajo/cerca de VWAP + WSA corto OK + Régimen/ATR OK + Sesión OK.
Gestión (por defecto): Largo SL 1.4%, TP 2.7%, trailing desde +0.5% con 0.4%. Corto SL 1.4%, TP 4.5%, trailing desde −0.5% con 0.4%. Cierre por barras opcional (20).
Propiedades por defecto (coinciden con el script)
Capital: $10,000 · Tamaño: 1 contrato · Comisión: $1.42/orden · Slippage: configúralo en Propiedades (sugerido ≥ 1 tick para MNQ) · Process on close: false · Calc on every tick: false · Backtest fill limits: 0.
Sugerencia: mantener el riesgo ≤ 5–10% del capital por operación ajustando el tamaño.
Alcance del backtest
Pensado para intradía MNQ (habitualmente 5m, pero configurable). Busca >100 operaciones con ventana multi-año. El filtro de régimen suele reducir cantidad de trades y mejorar su calidad.
Futures Tick & Point Value [BoredYeti]Futures Tick & Point Value
This utility displays tick size, dollars per tick, and (optionally) a per-point row for the current futures contract.
Features
• Hardcoded $/tick map for common CME/NYMEX/CBOT/COMEX contracts
• Automatic fallback using pointvalue * mintick for any other symbol
• Table settings: adjustable position, text size, customizable colors
• Optional “Per Point” row showing ticks and $/point
Notes
• Contract specs can vary by broker/exchange and may change over time. Always confirm with official specifications.
• Educational tool only; not financial advice.
Futures Forward Price [NeoButane]In futures markets, the theoretical value of a futures contract can be derived from its underlying price and cost of carry. By baking in the costs and potential yields, the theoretical forward price then be used in basis against futures prices in place of the underlying spot price.
Usage
The script creates plots on the main chart and a separate window pane. Both are meant to be used to visualize dislocations in the market.
By using a futures vs. forward basis instead of futures vs. spot basis, discounts in the market are clearer.
Last month, the gold futures market GCZ2025 traded >1% above forward price when tariffs were announced and fell back in line once the tariffs were verbally retracted.
View roll spreads over a back-adjusted continuous chart. I guess. I don't think spread traders only look at one chart. This is as educational for me as it is you.
Configuration
The underlying reference needs to be changed to match the futures contract you are using.
The Risk-Free Rate defaults to FRED:SOFR. I found the contract month matched 3-Month SOFR Futures to be the closest for forward price.
Risk-Free Rate: The interest rate source for forward price.
Constant Risk-Free Rate: a static interest rate that can be used in advance of future changes in risk-free rate.
Underlying Reference: spot or index price. Some examples include TVC:SPX, TVC:GOLD, CRYPTO:BTCUSD, TVC:USOIL.
Forward Price Compounding: determines which formula to use. They're similar and become closer as the contract matures.
Alternative Contract: enable and select a futures contract to use it on a chart different than the main.
Storage Cost and Yield: for use with commodities. I haven't found a proper use for them yet but enabling is simple if you are able to.
The following are meant to be used with the continuous formula as they are compounded. However the rate sources don't differ much for the purpose of futures prices.
3-Month CME SOFR Futures
3-Month ICEEUR SONIA Futures
3-Month Osaka TONA Futures
The other rate sources are either meant for futures contracts shorter than quarterly such as monthly crypto futures or were meant to help myself understand how different rates would align with futures prices, like inflation.
What this script does
It uses the cost of carry formula to output the forward price (red line). The underlying reference (green line) is plotted alongside and a futures-derived reference (blue line) can be displayed to see how it looks next to the real reference price.
The data pane displays either the nominal difference or percentage difference between the real futures price and the calculated forward price.

2. **Profit Preservation**: Trailing stops activate once position becomes profitable
3. **Scaled Exit**: Partial profit-taking allows for both security and potential
### Time-Based Edge
The time filtering system recognizes that not all trading hours are equal:
- Avoids low-volume, high-spread periods
- Focuses on optimal liquidity windows

The **jolt value** is your personal tripwire for volatility. Think of it as a warning light on your car's dashboard. You set the level, and when volatility (VWATR) crosses that line, you get an instant signal that something interesting is happening.
**How to Set Your Jolt Value:**
The ideal jolt value is dynamic. You want to keep it just a little above the current VIX level to stay alert without getting too many false alarms.
| Current VIX Level | Market Regime | Recommended Jolt Value |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Under 15 | Calm/Complacent | 15–16 |
| 15–20 | Typical/Normal | 16–18 |
| 20–30 | Cautious/Active | 18–22 |
| Over 30 | Stress/Panic | 30+ |
**A Pro Tip for August 2025:** Since the VIX is hovering around 14.7, setting your jolt value to **16.5** is a great starting point for keeping an eye on things. If the VIX starts to climb above 20, you should adjust your jolt level to match the new reality.
***
### ⚠️ Important Things to Note
* You might experience some data delays if you're not on a paid TradingView plan or your broker does not provide real-time data for the VIX also VIX is only active during NY session, so it's not advised to use it outside of normal trading hours!
Spread Mean Reversion Strategy [SciQua]╭───────────────────────────────────────╮
Spread Mean Reversion Strategy
╰───────────────────────────────────────╯
This invite-only futures spread strategy applies a statistical mean reversion framework, executing limit orders exclusively at calculated Z-score thresholds for precise, rules-based entries and exits. It is designed for CME-style spreads and synthetic instruments with well-defined reversion tendencies.
╭────────────╮
Core Concept
╰────────────╯
The strategy calculates a rolling mean and standard deviation of a chosen spread or synthetic price series, then computes the Z-score to measure deviation from the mean in standard deviation units.
Long entries trigger when Z crosses upward through a negative entry threshold (`-devEnter`). A buy limit is placed exactly at the price corresponding to that Z-score, optionally offset by a configurable tick amount.
Short entries trigger when Z crosses downward through a positive entry threshold (`+devEnter`). A sell limit is placed at the corresponding threshold price, also with optional offset.
Exits use the same threshold method, with an independent `Close Limit Offset` to fine-tune exit placement.
╭────────────╮
Key Features
╰────────────╯
Persistence filter – Requires the Z-score to remain beyond threshold for a configurable number of bars before entry.
Cooldown after exits – Prevents immediate re-entry to reduce over-trading.
Daily and weekend flattening – Force-flattens positions via limit orders before exchange maintenance breaks and weekend closes.
Auto-rollover detection with persistence – Detects when the second contract month’s daily volume exceeds the first for a set number of days, then blocks new entries (optional).
Configurable tick offsets – Independently adjust entry and exit levels relative to threshold prices.
Minimum spread width filter – Blocks trades when long/short entry thresholds are too close together.
Contract multiplier override – Allows correct sizing for synthetic symbols where `syminfo.pointvalue` is incorrect or missing.
Limit-only execution – All entries, exits, and forced-flat actions are executed with limit orders for price control.
╭────────────────────╮
Entry Blocking Rules
╰────────────────────╯
New trades are blocked:
During daily maintenance break pre-windows
During weekend close pre-windows
After rollover triggers, if `Block After Roll` is enabled
╭────────────────────────╮
Intended Markets & Usage
╰────────────────────────╯
Built for futures spreads and synthetic instruments , including calendar spreads.
Performs best in markets with clear seasonal or statistical mean-reverting tendencies.
Not designed for strongly trending, non-reverting markets.
╭──────────────────────────╮
Risk Management & Defaults
╰──────────────────────────╯
Fixed default position size of 1 contract (qty calc function available for customization).
Realistic commission and slippage assumptions pre-set.
Pyramiding disabled by default.
Default Z-score levels: Entry at ±2.0, Exit at ±0.5.
Separate tick offset controls for entries and exits.

MTF Confluence Dashboard (Multi‑Timeframe Trend/Bias)MTF Confluence Dashboard — Multi‑Timeframe Trend/Bias Table + EMA
The MTF Confluence Dashboard is a fast, non‑repainting multi‑timeframe (MTF) confluence tool that shows higher‑timeframe trend and bias alignment in a compact, on‑chart table. It’s built for prop‑firm challenges and futures day traders who need instant top‑down confirmation without switching charts. Get a clean read of trend direction across your selected timeframes, plus on‑chart MAs for timing.
Why traders use it
* MTF Confluence at a glance: Trend/Bias table aggregates short vs long MA on 1m→1W (you pick which TFs show).
* Non‑repainting: Uses closed-bar higher‑TF data; reliable for alerts and evaluations.
* Futures + prop‑firm friendly: Minimal lag, lightweight, session‑agnostic; perfect for ES/NQ/CL/GC scalping or intraday swings.
Core features
* Trend/Bias Table: “Up / Down” per timeframe and an overall AVG sentiment.
* MA Engine: Choose MA type (SMA/EMA/WMA/HMA) and lengths (e.g., 50/200) to define bias.
* On‑Chart Confirmation: Plots short/long MAs for entry timing on your trading TF.
* Smart Alerts: Built‑in alerts for Strong Up/Up/Neutral/Down/Strong Down average bias.
* Custom Layout: Vertical or Horizontal table, resizable text (Tiny → Huge), corner positioning.
* Pro Visual Themes:
* Dark Intergalactic (neon/futuristic for dark charts)
* Light Minimal (clean light mode)

How to trade it
* Scalps (1m–5m): Only take longs when 5m/15m/1H/D are “Up” and AVG is Up/Strong Up; use MA crosses/pulls for entries.
* Intraday swings (5m–15m–1H): Wait for a higher‑TF flip to align; trail under the long MA.
* Risk discipline: If AVG shifts to Neutral/Down, stop looking for longs until bias realigns.
Settings you’ll care about
* Timeframes to display (1m, 2m, 3m, 5m, 10m, 15m, 30m, 1H, 2H, 4H, 6H, 12H, 1D, 1W).
* MA Type: SMA / EMA / WMA / HMA.
* Short/Long lengths (defaults 50/200).
* Theme, orientation, and size.
Notes
* Works on all symbols and timeframes.
* No repainting; alerts trigger on closed conditions.

Fractal Market Model [BLAZ]Version 1.0 – Published August 2025: Initial release
1. Overview & Purpose
1.1. What This Indicator Does
The Fractal Market Model is an original multi-timeframe technical analysis tool that bridges the critical gap between macro-level market structure and micro-level price execution. Designed to work across all financial markets including Forex, Stocks, Crypto, Futures, and Commodities. While traditional Smart Money Concepts indicators exist, this implementation analyses multi-timeframe liquidity zones and price action shifts, marking potential reversal points where Higher Timeframe (HTF) liquidity sweeps coincide with Low Timeframe (LTF) price action dynamics changes.
Snapshot details: NASDAQ:GOOG , 1W Timeframe, Year 2025
1.2. What Sets This Indicator Apart
The Fractal Market Model analyses multi-timeframe correlations between HTF structural events and LTF price action. This creates a dynamic framework that reveals patterns observed historically in price behaviour that are believed to reflect institutional activity across multiple time dimensions.
The indicator recognizes that markets move in fractal cycles following the AMDX pattern (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, Continuation/Reversal). By tracking this pattern across timeframes, it flags zones where price action dynamics characteristics have historically shown shifts. In the LTF, the indicator monitors for price closing through the open of an opposing candle near HTF swing highs or lows, marking this as a Change in State of Delivery (CISD), a threshold event where price action historically transitions direction.
Practical Value:
Multi-Timeframe Integration: Connects HTF structural events with LTF execution patterns.
Fractal Pattern Recognition: Identifies AMDX cycles across different time dimensions.
Price Behavior Analysis: Tracks CISD patterns that may reflect historical shifts in order flow commonly associated with institutional activity.
Range-Based Context: Analyses price action within established HTF liquidity zones.
1.3. How It Works
The indicator employs a systematic 5-candle HTF tracking methodology:
Candles 0-1: Accumulation phase identification.
Candle 2: Manipulation detection (raids previous highs/lows).
Candle 3: Distribution phase recognition.
Candle 4: Continuation/reversal toward opposite liquidity.
The system monitors for CISD patterns on the LTF when HTF manipulation candles close with confirmed sweeps, highlighting zones where order flow dynamics historically shifted within the established HTF range.
Snapshot details: FOREXCOM:AUDUSD , 1H Timeframe, 17 to 28 July 2025

Right side: Automatic multi-timeframe alignment, where the indicator autonomously sets the HTF pairing to 1H when the current chart timeframe is the 5 minutes.
Left side: Custom Timeframe enabled, where HTF is manually set to 4H, and LTF is manually set to 15 minutes, while being on the 5 minutes chart.
Snapshot details: FOREXCOM:GBPJPY , 5 minutes timeframe, 30 July 2025
3.3.2. Session-Based Filtering
Visibility Filters: Control when FMM setups appear using multiple filtering options:
Time-Based Controls:
Show Below: Limit setup visibility to timeframes below the selected threshold.
Use Session Filter: Enable session-based time window restrictions.
Session 1, 2, 3: Configure up to three custom time sessions with start and end times.
These filtering capabilities help concentrate analysis on specific market periods or timeframe contexts.
The image below illustrates the application of session filters:
Left side: The session filter is disabled, resulting in four setups being displayed throughout the day—two during the London session and two during the New York session.
Right side: The session filter is enabled to display setups exclusively within the New York session (8:00 AM – 12:00 PM). Setups outside this time window are hidden. Since the total number of setups is limited to four, the indicator backfills by identifying and displaying two qualifying setups from earlier price action that occurred within the specified New York session window.

Stock Table aiTrendviewProfessional Stock Market Monitoring Table (Pine Script v5)
This indicator is a real-time multi-asset monitoring table designed for professional traders, analysts, and portfolio managers using TradingView. Built with Pine Script v5, it enables users to track up to 10 instruments (stocks, indices, forex pairs, cryptocurrencies, or commodities) in a unified table embedded directly into the chart. It is intended to streamline portfolio monitoring, cross-market analysis, and rapid visual comparison of asset performance.
The core logic of this script involves retrieving live price data through TradingView’s request.security() function for each of the selected symbols. It calculates both absolute price change and percentage price change relative to the previous bar close. This ensures users can see real-time movements in each asset’s price. These calculations are updated at the close of every bar to optimize performance and reduce processing load using the barstate.islast condition.
The display structure is dynamically generated using table.new() and related functions. Internally, the script stores symbol and price data in arrays for efficient processing. Symbols are cleaned to remove exchange prefixes (e.g., "NASDAQ:", "BINANCE:") so only the ticker name is displayed. Based on the selected layout (1 to 5 columns), the table auto-adjusts its row structure to maintain clarity and symmetry. Each cell reflects the ticker symbol, current price, and changes, with conditional formatting applied to indicate price movement direction using green (positive), red (negative), or neutral colors.
Users can customize many visual elements including text size, color themes, transparency, table position, and whether headers are shown. The script includes built-in fallbacks for invalid symbols or empty data, ensuring robustness and uninterrupted performance during live market hours.
Use cases include:
Intraday traders monitoring multiple instruments simultaneously.
Swing traders assessing relative strength and correlation.
Portfolio managers scanning asset performance without switching charts.
Analysts preparing multi-asset presentations or watchlists.

Opening-Range BreakoutNote: Default trading date range looks mediocre. Set date range to "Entire History" to see full effect of the strategy. 50.91% profitable trades, 1.178 profit factor, steady profits and limited drawdown. Total P&L: $154,141.18, Max Drawdown: $18,624.36. High R^2
█ Overview
The Opening-Range Breakout strategy is a mechanical, session‑based day‑trading system designed to capture the initial burst of directional momentum immediately following the market open. It defines a user‑configurable “opening range” window, measures its high and low boundaries, then places breakout stop orders at those levels once the range closes. Built‑in filters on minimum range width, reward‑to‑risk ratios, and optional reversal logic help refine entries and manage risk dynamically.
█ How It Works
Opening‑Range Formation
Between 9:30–10:15 AM ET (configurable), the script tracks the highest high and lowest low to form the day’s opening range box.
On the first bar after the range window closes, the range high (OR_high) and low (OR_low) are “locked in.”
Range‑Width Filter
To avoid false breakouts in low‑volatility mornings, the range must be at least X% of the current price (default 0.35%).
If the measured opening-range width < minimum threshold, no orders are placed that day.
Entry & Order Placement
Long: a stop‑buy order at the opening‑range high.
Short: a stop‑sell order at the opening‑range low.
Only one side can trigger (or both if reverse logic is enabled after a losing trade).
Risk Management
Once triggered, each trade uses an ATR‑style stop-loss defined as a percentage retracement of the range (default 50% of range width).
Profit target is set at a configurable Reward/Risk Ratio (default 1.1×).
Optional: Reverse on Stop‑Loss – if the initial breakout loses, immediately reverse into the opposite side on the same day.
Session Exit
Any open positions are closed at the end of the regular trading day (default 3:45 PM ET window end, with hard flat at session close).
Visual cues are provided via green (range high) and red (range low) step‑line plots directly on the chart, allowing you to see the range box and breakout triggers in real time.
█ Why It Works
Early Momentum Capture: The first 15 – 60 minutes of trading encapsulate overnight news digestion and institutional order flow, creating a well‑defined volatility “range.”
Mechanical Discipline: Clear, rule‑based entries and exits remove emotional guesswork, ensuring consistency.
Volatility Filtering: By requiring a minimum range width, the system avoids choppy, low‑range days where false breakouts are common.
Dynamic Sizing: Stops and targets scale with the opening range, adapting automatically to each day’s volatility environment.
█ How to Use
Set Your Instruments & Timeframe
-Apply to any futures contract on a 1‑ to 5‑minute chart.

Configure Inputs
-Opening‑Range Window: e.g. “0930-1015” for a 45‑minute range.
-Min. OR Width (%): e.g. 0.35 for 0.35% of current price.
-Reward/Risk Ratio: e.g. 1.1 for a modest profit target above your stop.
-Max OR Retracement %: e.g. 50 to set stop at 50% of range width.
-One Trade Per Day: toggle to limit to a single breakout.
-Reverse on Stop Loss: toggle to flip direction after a losing breakout.
Monitor the Chart
-Watch the green and red range boundaries form during the session open.
-Orders will automatically submit on the first bar after the range window closes, conditioned on your filters.
Review & Adjust
-Backtest across multiple months to validate performance on your preferred contract.
-Tweak range duration, minimum width, and R/R multiple to fit your risk tolerance and desired win‑rate vs. expectancy balance.

COT Comm OsciDescription
The COT Comm Osci is a sentiment oscillator based on net positions from the weekly Commitments of Traders (COT) report.
It transforms net positions of Commercials, Noncommercials, or Nonreportables into a 0–100 index.
A value of 100 = highest net position within the selected timeframe.
A value of 0 = lowest net position.
You can define three historical intervals (e.g. 26/ 52 / 156 weeks).
Tip
To improve your analysis, it's recommended to add a separate COT indicator that visualizes raw Long/Short or net positions directly. This helps interpret the oscillator in context.
