As Good As It Gets Pivot ArrowsAs Good As It Gets Pivot Arrows
Description
- As Good As It Gets Pivot Arrows is a clean, high-precision pivot detection indicator that plots bright green upward triangles for confirmed pivot lows (buy signals) and red downward triangles for confirmed pivot highs (sell signals), and comes with customizable pivot length. Additionally, it optionally displays white dots for double-top/double-bottom pivots within a user-defined percentage tolerance.
Key Features
- Exact replication of TOS pivot high/low triangles (12-arrow style)
- Customizable pivot length (default 7)
- Option to ignore the last unconfirmed bar
- Toggle triangles and/or pivot dots independently
- Double-top/bottom detection with adjustable % tolerance (0.1% default)
- Clean visual signals with no repainting on confirmed pivots
What Makes It Unique
- This script delivers the pivot arrow behavior (including brighter lime-green buy triangles) that many traders love, with added flexibility: individual toggles for triangles/dots, double-top/bottom detection, and full customization. Unlike generic pivot indicators, it has precise confirmation logic while remaining fast and non-repainting on closed bars.
How to Use and Trade With It
- Adjust "Pivot Length" to suit your timeframe (7–14 common)
- Enable/disable triangles or dots as preferred
- Fine-tune "% Tolerance" for double-top/bottom sensitivity
Trading Signals
- Green upward triangle below bar: Confirmed pivot low → potential LONG entry or support
- Red downward triangle above bar: Confirmed pivot high → potential SHORT entry or - resistance
- White dots: Double-top (above) or double-bottom (below) within tolerance → higher-probability reversal zones
Best Practice
- Use triangles for primary swing entries/exits
- Combine with volume, trend filters, or support/resistance for confirmation
- Works on any timeframe; shorter lengths for intraday scalping, longer for positional trading
CSA Infinity BridgeCSA Infinity Bridge - 14-Indicator Consensus Dashboard
Description
- CSA Infinity Bridge is a proprietary multi-indicator consensus system that analyzes 14 technical indicators simultaneously and displays their collective agreement in a real-time dashboard. The indicator provides clear LONG, SHORT, or NEUTRAL signals based on mathematical consensus, eliminating subjective interpretation.
Core Innovation
- Unlike single indicators requiring interpretation, this tool synthesizes signals from Heikin Ashi, SuperTrend, Momentum, CCI, MFI, DMI, CMO, RSI+TTM, Zero-Lag MACD, ROC, SMA50, and specialized combinations into a unified market state classification.
Key Features
- 14 independent technical indicators analyzed per bar
- Real-time consensus dashboard with color-coded Bull/Bear readings
- 5-tier market state classification (Bullish, Trending ↑, Neutral, Chop, Trending ↓, Bearish)
- TOTAL column displays agreement count (out of 14) showing conviction level
- STATE column provides clear LONG/SHORT/NEUTRAL recommendations
- Built-in alerts for strong consensus (11+) and state changes
- Customizable dashboard size (Tiny to Huge)
- Optional dashboard placement (Top Right, Bottom Right, Bottom Center, Top Center)
What Makes It Unique
- The consensus engine quantifies market conviction with a simple number: when 11+ indicators agree, high-probability setups appear. When agreement drops below 8, the system warns to reduce exposure or stay flat. This creates a rules-based framework eliminating emotional trading decisions. The flexible dashboard positioning allows seamless integration into any chart layout without obstructing price action.
Ideal For
- Day traders and scalpers on futures markets (MNQ, MES, MYM, MGC, MCL) who need objective signals based on multi-indicator confirmation. Works on any instrument and timeframe, optimized for 1-5 minute scalping.
How to Use
Setup:
- Add indicator to chart and customize dashboard size and position. Enable alerts for "Strong Bullish", "Strong Bearish", "LONG Signal", and "SHORT Signal".
Dashboard Columns:
- Individual cells show Bull/Bear for each of 14 indicators
- TREND shows market state (Bullish/Trending/Neutral/Chop)
- STATE shows trade recommendation (LONG/SHORT/NEUTRAL)
- TOTAL shows agreement count with color coding (green 10+, orange 7-9, gray <7)
Signal Interpretation:
- 11-14 Agreement: High-probability setups, use full position size
- 8-10 Agreement: Medium probability, use 50-75% size
- 6-7 Agreement: Low probability, scalp only or avoid
- 5 Agreement: Chop zone, stay flat
Entry Strategy:
- Enter LONG when TOTAL reaches 11+ with STATE showing LONG. Enter SHORT when TOTAL reaches 11+ with STATE showing SHORT. Use stops 10-15 ticks beyond recent swing points.
Exit Strategy:
- Exit when TOTAL drops to 7 or below, or when STATE changes to opposite direction. Take partial profits at 2R, trail remainder.
Risk Management:
- Position sizing: 100% at 12-14 agreement, 75% at 10-11, 50% at 8-9, avoid below 8. Never risk more than 1% per trade.
Best Timeframes:
- 1-min (scalping), 3-min (quick day trades), 5-min (standard day trading), 15-min (swing entries).
Gann VooDoo LinesGann VooDoo Lines Indicator
Description
- Gann VooDoo Lines is a precise overlay indicator that applies W.D. Gann's Square of 9 mathematics to generate static horizontal support and resistance levels from a single manual anchor price. It calculates 8 key vibrational degrees (45°, 90°, 135°, 180°, 225°, 270°, 315°, 360°) both upward (resistance) and downward (support), delivering clean, timeframe-independent price zones.
Key Features
- Manual anchor price input for complete control
- Individual toggles for each of the 8 degrees
- "Both (Support + Resistance)" mode to display levels in both directions simultaneously
- Extend lines left/right or both
- Dynamic right-side labels that follow the latest bar
- Price values automatically displayed on the right price scale for all visible lines (including anchor)
- Customizable resistance, support, and anchor colors
What Makes It Unique (Compared to Other Gann Scripts)
- Unlike most Gann indicators on TradingView (which typically focus on sloping angles/fans, auto-detected swings, or limited degrees), Gann VooDoo Lines uses pure static Square of 9 horizontal levels with full individual toggles for all 8 degrees and a dedicated "Both" mode — allowing you to view support and resistance simultaneously without overlap or clutter. The combination of per-degree toggles, dynamic right-side labels, and clean price scale integration (no duplicates or repainting) sets it apart from generic Gann tools that often lack this granular control and visual clarity.
How to Use and Trade With It
- Set the anchor properly — this is the most critical step:
- Choose a major significant price extreme (all-time high/low, major swing high/low, or key psychological level).
- For higher timeframes (daily/weekly): use long-term extremes (e.g., all-time low/high) for "master" levels that influence price over months/years.
- For lower timeframes/intraday: use recent session extremes (today's open, previous close, or recent swing high/low) and update the anchor as needed for fresh levels.
- Experiment: test different anchors and observe which produces the most reactions.
Trading approach:
- Watch for price reactions (reversals, bounces, accelerations) at the lines — especially confluence with multiple degrees or right-side labels.
- Use in "Both" mode for full support/resistance picture.
- Combine with price action (candlestick patterns, volume) for entries/exits.
- Toggle off unused degrees to declutter the chart.
BK AK-King Quazi🦁👑 BK AK–KING QUAZI — MEASURED HAND, CLEAN BLADE. 👑🦁
This is Quasimodo turned into a permissioned process: PROTO → BOS proof → RETEST → CONFIRM → resolve or invalidate — with mapped levels so you execute clean or you stand down.
All glory to the Almighty — the true source of wisdom, restraint, and endurance.
AK is honor — my mentor’s standard: clarity, patience, no shortcuts, no gambling.
🧠 What It Does
King Quazi detects and manages Quasimodo (QM) structures and outputs an execution-ready battlefield:
PROTO detection: identifies developing QM structure early (awareness, not a trade)
BOS validation: requires a displacement break (ATR-based) so you don’t trade fake breaks
RETEST logic: watches the key QM level for the “return to the scene”
CONFIRM stage: only triggers when structure + proof + timing align
INVALIDATION + cleanup: marks failure clearly and manages drawings to keep charts readable
Projections + targets: maps QM / BOS / INV, plus optional T1/T2 so planning is standardized
MTF War Room: reads multiple timeframes and shows who’s in PROTO / CONFIRM / NOW so you stop trading against the higher court
This is not a pattern sticker. It’s a workflow.
What You See On Chart (so it’s usable)
QM level + BOS level + invalidation line
Optional forward projections / extension
Optional target mapping (T1/T2)
Stage-aware labels (PROTO / CONFIRM / invalidation handling)
MTF table showing which timeframe is active and which stage is “live”
🔍 How It Works (So You Know It’s Not Random)
1) Swing Structure → QM Candidate
The script builds swing structure and recognizes valid QM geometry — no guesswork labels without structure.
2) BOS Displacement Filter (Proof of Intent)
Most QM tools fire when the shape appears. King Quazi demands body displacement vs ATR so a “break” has force behind it — not wick theater.
3) Retest + Confirm (Permissioned Entry)
After BOS, it expects retest behavior and confirms only when the market acts right at the level — not in the middle of nowhere.
4) Object Lifecycle (Clean Chart, Honest Outcome)
The script manages lines/labels so your chart stays readable and outcomes are tracked — not hidden.
🧩 Why This Script Is Original (Not Another QM Clone)
The Quasimodo concept is public. The edge here is the integration:
staged event sequencing (PROTO → BOS → RETEST → CONFIRM)
ATR displacement proof to cut false positives
standardized execution mapping (QM/BOS/INV + optional targets)
multi-timeframe stage awareness (so you stop fighting higher structure)
alert routing by event stage (signal control, not spam)
It’s not “more signals.” It’s better permission.
🧭 How To Use It (Execution Rules)
1) Campaign Mode (Trend-Aligned)
Trade only when the MTF posture supports it. PROTO is awareness — BOS/RETEST is proof.
2) Verdict Mode (Turns)
A reversal is not a feeling. It’s testimony failing at the boundary and pressure flipping. Confirm at the level or don’t touch it.
3) Stand-Down Mode (The Feature Tourists Hate)
When the tool goes quiet, it’s telling you the truth:
no permission = no trade.
That’s how capital survives.
⚙️ What You Actually Tune
Zigzag sensitivity (tight vs clean structure)
BOS displacement strictness (how hard price must prove intent)
Retest window + expiration (how strict confirmation is)
Projection visibility (QM/BOS/INV, forward extension)
Targets & entry zone behavior (T1/T2 + buffers)
MTF table + alerts (what you want surfaced)
🧑🏫 BK / AK / Faith
BK is the mark I’m building.
AK is honor — discipline, patience, clean execution.
All glory to the Almighty — the true source of wisdom and endurance.
🗡️ King David Lens (Deep — Discipline Under Fire)
David’s power wasn’t impulse. It was governed force — strength that answers to law.
He learned early that the most dangerous trap is moving before you’re sent.
That’s why his life is full of the same pattern traders ignore:
He was anointed long before he was crowned.
Meaning: truth can be real before it’s allowed to manifest.
He fought Goliath with a weapon people mocked — not because it was flashy, but because it was mastered.
Meaning: edge isn’t what looks impressive — it’s what’s trained and repeatable.
He had Saul in his hands and still refused the shortcut.
Meaning: opportunity is not permission; proximity is not assignment.
He waited through wilderness seasons where nothing “looked like progress.”
Meaning: silence isn’t rejection — sometimes it’s preparation.
That is the trader’s war.
Price will always offer motion.
But motion without permission is bait.
David didn’t survive by chasing what was available.
He survived by waiting until the moment was proved, the ground was chosen, and the strike was clean.
That’s what King Quazi enforces:
PROTO is the rumor.
BOS displacement is the proof.
Retest is the test of legitimacy.
Confirm is permission to strike.
Invalidation is humility — stand down immediately.
A lion doesn’t chase every shadow.
A lion waits until the prey is committed — then ends it.

BK AK-Flag Formations🏴☠️ BK AK-Flag Formations — Continuation Structure, Tactical Readability. 🏴☠️
Built for traders who press momentum with discipline: it finds flagpoles + flags/pennants, validates the structure, draws the boundaries, and labels it in a way you can act on without clutter.
🎖️ Full Credit — Foundation Engine (Trendoscope)
Original foundation (Trendoscope Flags & Pennants):
The core detection engine (multi-zigzag swing extraction, pivot logic, validation/classification framework, and base drawing architecture) is by Trendoscope.
This script keeps that engine intact. My work adds a tactical execution layer: short tags + tooltip briefing + alert routing + forward border projection.
✅ What This Script Does
This indicator hunts continuation formations after an impulse move, and outputs three things:
Detects the pole (impulse leg) and the consolidation that follows
Classifies the consolidation as a Flag or Pennant, and assigns a bias (Bull/Bear/Neutral) based on context
Draws the structure and labels it cleanly, with optional hover briefings and filtered alerts
You get continuation structure across multiple sensitivities, so it can catch tight flags and larger, slower continuations without changing settings every chart.
🔍 How It Detects (So You Know It’s Not Random)
This is not “pattern art.” It’s rule-based swing logic + geometry:
1) Multi-Zigzag Sweep (micro → macro)
The script runs multiple zigzag levels (up to 4) to extract swings at different sensitivities.
That means the same market is scanned for both:
short, fast consolidations
larger, cleaner consolidations
2) Impulse + Consolidation Validation
After swings are extracted, the engine checks:
that the move qualifies as an impulse “pole”
that the consolidation stays within a controlled retracement window (your Max Retracement control)
that the consolidation geometry is coherent enough to be classified (tolerance controlled by Error Threshold and Flat Threshold)
3) Optional Quality Filters (you control strictness)
Verify Bar Ratio: checks proportion/spacing of pivots, not just price shape
Avoid Overlap: prevents stacking new patterns on top of existing ones
Max Patterns: hard cap so the chart stays readable
Repaint option: allows refinement if better coordinates form (useful for real-time traders)
🧩 BK Enhancements — Why This Publication Exists (Not a Mashup)
This is one pattern engine plus a purpose-built execution layer. Not “two indicators glued together.”
A) Short-Form Pattern Tags (clarity under pressure)
Instead of long labels drowning price, the script can replace them with compact codes:
BF / BeF / BP / BeP / F / P / UF / DF / RF / FF / AF / DeF
This is not cosmetic — it lets you keep structure visible while trading.
B) Tooltip Briefing (optional)
Hover a tag to see:
the full pattern name
the bias (Bullish/Bearish/Neutral)
So you get detail only when you request it, not sprayed across the chart.
C) Alert Routing (signal control, not spam)
Alerts can be filtered by:
Bias (Bull/Bear/Neutral)
Type (Flag vs Pennant)
So you can route only what you trade — e.g., bullish continuations only, or pennants only.
D) Pattern Border Extension (planning the break/retest)
Optional feature extends only the two true boundary lines forward by N bars, so you can plan:
breakout/breakdown levels
retest zones
invalidation outside structure
This extension is selective: it aims to extend the actual borders, not random zigzag legs.
How these work together:
Trendoscope detects/validates → draws the pattern → BK layer converts labels to short tags + applies transparency + tooltip overlay → BK alert router filters by bias/type → BK border extension projects the two boundary lines forward.
That’s the purpose: faster reads + cleaner execution planning.
🏷️ How To Read the Codes (Practical Translation)
BF — Bull Flag: strong pole → controlled pullback → watch boundary break + continuation
BP — Bull Pennant: thrust → tight compression → expansion confirms carry
BeF — Bear Flag: down impulse → weak rallies → breakdown favors continuation lower
BeP — Bear Pennant: pause beneath resistance → release favors trend continuation
F / P: generic tags when it’s valid but shouldn’t over-specify
⚙️ What You Actually Tune
Zigzag lengths/depths: sensitivity (faster vs cleaner)
Max Retracement: how deep consolidation may retrace the pole
Error / Flat thresholds: strictness of structure validation
Overlap / Max patterns: chart cleanliness
Labels: short tags, transparency, tooltips
Border extension: extend boundaries forward by N bars
Alerts: enable + filter by bias and by type

Bar Countdown ClockBar Countdown Clock
Description:
Displays the remaining time for the current bar on the chart. The countdown label follows the previous EMA5 price to stay stable during high-volatility markets. Font size and label position are fully customizable. Works well on BTC, Gold, Forex, and other trading instruments.
How to Use:
Add the indicator to your chart.
Adjust Clock Color, Font Size, and X Offset to suit your preference.
The label will automatically track the previous EMA5 price.
The countdown updates in real-time until the current bar closes.
Tips:
Increase X Offset if the label overlaps the current bar.
For high-volatility instruments, the label remains stable by following EMA5.
EMA Length can be adjusted to change the anchor point for the label.
BK AK-Warfare Formations👑 BK AK-Warfare Formations — Geometric Structure, Tactical Readability 👑
Built for traders who want validated structure (channels/wedges/triangles) without chart clutter — with compact tags, hover briefings, filtered alerts, and forward-projected battle lines.
🎖️ Full Credit — Foundation Engine (Trendoscope)
Original foundation (Trendoscope Auto Chart Patterns):
The entire pattern engine (multi-zigzag scanning, pivot logic, trendline-pair validation, geometric classification, overlap handling, pattern caps, and the base drawing framework) is by Trendoscope — one of the strongest Pine engineers on TradingView and the creator of the underlying detection architecture.
This script keeps that engine intact. My work is a tactical layer on top: readability + interaction + alerts + forward structure projection.
🧠 What This Script Does (User-Facing Output)
This indicator automatically detects and draws these geometric formations on price:
Channels
AC — Ascending Channel
DC — Descending Channel
RC — Ranging Channel
Wedges
RWE / FWE — Rising/Falling Wedge (Expanding)
RWC / FWC — Rising/Falling Wedge (Contracting)
Triangles
ATC / DTC — Ascending/Descending Triangle (Contracting)
ATE / DTE — Ascending/Descending Triangle (Expanding)
CT — Converging Triangle
DT — Diverging Triangle
You can display either the full pattern name or short tactical tags so structure stays visible without burying price.
🔍 How It Detects (So You Know It’s Not Random)
Trendoscope’s engine follows a strict geometric workflow:
1) Multi-Zigzag Sweep (micro → macro)
The script runs multiple zigzag configurations (up to 4) so it can detect the same market at different swing sensitivities — from tighter formations to broader ones.
2) Pivot Structure Validation (5 or 6 pivots)
A formation is only eligible when the swing sequence provides a valid pivot set (typically 5 or 6 pivots depending on your setting).
3) Trendline-Pair Validation + Geometry Classification
Two boundary trendlines are built and validated:
Upper boundary anchored to pivot highs
Lower boundary anchored to pivot lows
Then the engine measures geometry to classify:
Parallel → Channel
Converging / Diverging with same direction → Wedge
Converging / Diverging with opposing direction → Triangle
4) Quality Controls (optional but recommended)
Error threshold controls tolerance for line fit
Flat threshold controls what qualifies as “flat”
Bar ratio verification checks proportionality of swing spacing
Avoid overlap prevents stacking noisy patterns
Max pattern caps keeps chart readable
Net effect: You get validated geometry, not doodles.
🧩 BK Enhancements — Why This Publication Exists (Not a Mashup)
This publication is not “two indicators glued together.” It’s a single detection engine plus an execution-oriented interface layer built specifically to solve real pain points:
A) Tactical Labels (Clarity Under Pressure)
Short-form tags (AC/DC/RWE/CT…) to keep charts readable
Independent transparency controls (label text + background)
Optional hover tooltips that show full pattern name + directional bias (Bullish/Bearish/Neutral)
How it works together: Trendoscope detects/draws → BK label layer converts to short tags + applies transparency + tooltip overlay.
B) Alert System Upgrades (Signal Routing, Not Spam)
Alerts are filtered by:
Bias: Bullish / Bearish / Neutral
Category: Channel / Wedge / Triangle
So instead of “New Pattern!” noise, you can route only what you trade.
How it works together: When the engine confirms a pattern, BK’s alert router reads the pattern name → derives bias/category → checks your enabled filters → sends only approved alerts.
C) Pattern Border Extension (Forward Battlefield Edges)
Optional feature to extend only the two true boundary lines of the pattern forward by N bars so you can plan:
where price might react
where breaks/retests become obvious
where entries/invalidations belong
This extension logic is selective (it avoids extending zigzag legs/pivot scribbles) and attempts to extend the best-matching border pair only.
How it works together: After patterns are drawn, BK scans existing pattern lines → identifies the border pair → extends those borders forward.
⚙️ Core Controls (What You Actually Tune)
Scanning / Quality
Zigzag lengths & depths (swing sensitivity)
Pivots used: 5 vs 6
Error tolerance + flat threshold
Bar ratio verification
Overlap avoidance + repaint behavior
Max patterns displayed
Display / Readability
Theme colors or custom palette
Transparency for pattern lines/labels
Short labels ON/OFF
Tooltips ON/OFF
Border extension ON/OFF + extend bars
Alerts
Enable alerts overall
Filter by bias
Filter by category (Channel/Wedge/Triangle)
🗺️ How To Use It (Practical, Not Fantasy)
Channels: trade the lane — entries near the boundary, invalidation outside the structure
Wedges: watch compression/expansion and breaks + retests (distribution/accumulation behavior often shows here)
Triangles: plan edges, not the middle — compression → expansion is the whole point
This script gives structure. You still decide execution rules (entry trigger, invalidation, targets).

PWM detects when price is "coiling" (compression) and about to explode.
• ORANGE DOTS = Spring compressing (GET READY)
• GREEN DOT = Spring released (TAKE ACTION)
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ READING THE INDICATOR
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
HISTOGRAM BARS:
• BRIGHT CYAN = Strong bullish (best for longs)
• DARK CYAN = Bullish weakening (consider exit)

📈 STATISTICS EXPLAINED
For Each Tracked Time, You'll See:
🟢 Above Selected Lines (X samples):
Continued↑: Price stayed above the lines = bullish continuation
Reversed↓: Price broke below the lines = reversal/rejection
→Kept Going↓: After reversing down, price continued lower (bars 11-20)
→Stalled: After reversing down, price came back up (consolidation)
Neutral: Price didn't make a clear move either way
🔴 Below Selected Lines (X samples):
Continued↓: Price stayed below the lines = bearish continuation
Reversed↑: Price broke above the lines = reversal/support bounce
→Kept Going↑: After reversing up, price continued higher (bars 11-20)
→Stalled: After reversing up, price came back down (consolidation)
Neutral: No clear directional move
⭐ Star Ratings: Show which outcome happens most frequently (best probability)
🔬 HYBRID DETECTION SYSTEM (ADVANCED)
When enabled, the indicator uses a multi-signal composite scoring system that goes beyond simple percentage movements:
Signal A - % Movement Direction (40% weight):
Measures the strength and direction of price movement. Strong directional moves (>0.8%) score higher, while opposite-direction moves score negatively.
Signal B - Inside Candles (30% weight):
Detects true consolidation by counting how many candles close within a defined range. High inside-candle counts indicate choppy, stalled price action rather than clean continuation.
Signal C - Successive Closes (30% weight):
Tracks momentum persistence by counting consecutive closes in the expected direction. Long streaks (6+ bars) indicate strong follow-through, while breaks in the sequence suggest weakness.
Composite Score Classification:
⭐⭐⭐ Strong (75-100 points): All three signals align - high-confidence pattern
⭐⭐ Moderate (50-75 points): Two signals agree - reliable pattern
⭐ Weak (25-50 points): Mixed signals - lower confidence
⚠️ Strong Stalled (0-25 points): Signals show consolidation/reversal
This provides nuanced pattern detection that identifies not just IF a pattern succeeded, but HOW STRONGLY it performed.
💡 INTERPRETING RESULTS
Good Lines Show:
High continuation % when price is above/below (>60% is strong)
Clean "Kept Going" patterns after reversals (>50% indicates reliable rejection)
Low stalled % (less whipsaw/consolidation)
Consistent patterns across multiple times (validates the line's reliability)
Poor Lines Show:
50/50 continuation vs reversal (coin flip = no edge)
High stalled % (lots of whipsaw/false signals)
Inconsistent patterns across different times (unreliable)
Example Interpretation:
9:30 AM - VWAP Daily (120 samples)
🟢 Above:
Continued↑ 75 (62.5%) ⭐ BEST
Reversed↓ 30 (25.0%)
Meaning: When price is above VWAP Daily at 9:30 AM, it continues higher 62.5% of the time - this is a statistically strong bullish signal for that session time.
🎯 PRACTICAL VALUE
Solves the Whipsaw Problem:
Most moving averages and lines work beautifully in trending markets but create endless false signals in choppy, range-bound conditions. By analyzing specific session times and continuation vs reversal patterns, you can:
Identify high-probability setups: Focus on lines that show >60% continuation at your preferred trading times
Avoid weak signals: Skip lines with high stall rates or 50/50 outcomes
Time your entries better: Know which session times produce the cleanest patterns
Combine complementary lines: Stack multiple high-scoring lines for confluence
Adapt to market conditions: Switch to different lines when market structure changes
Real-World Application:
Instead of blindly trading VWAP crosses or MA bounces, you'll have objective data showing: "At 9:30 AM on ES, when price is above Mid MA + VWAP Daily + Volume POC, it continues higher 68% of the time with strong momentum (⭐⭐⭐)." This transforms discretionary guesswork into data-driven decision making.

Zero Lag/Exponential MA Cloud (EMA or ZLEMA+Kalman) w/Buy/SellZero Lag/Exponential MA Cloud (EMA or ZLEMA+Kalman) is a three–moving average trend and structure tool that combines a dual-layer cloud with optional Buy/Sell tags. It plots a Fast, Medium, and Long moving average and shades the space between them to make trend direction and momentum easy to read at a glance. The default source is OHLC4 (the average of open, high, low, and close), which often produces smoother, more stable signals than using close alone.
Each moving average can be calculated two different ways: standard EMA or a “ZLEMA + Kalman” mode. EMA is the classic exponential moving average. ZLEMA (Zero-Lag EMA) is a real technique designed to reduce lag by de-lagging the input before running the EMA, using the form EMA(2×src − src , length) where lag is approximately (length−1)/2. In this script, the ZLEMA input is first passed through an adaptive Kalman-style filter (based on Ehlers optimal tracking filter concepts). That filter adjusts its smoothing in real time using a ratio of “signal” (smoothed price change) to “noise” (true range), producing an adaptive alpha: it reacts faster in cleaner trends and smooths more in choppy conditions. The result is a fast-moving average that stays readable instead of becoming jagged.
The cloud is split into two zones: one between the Fast and Medium MAs, and another between the Medium and Long MAs. Cloud color is driven by the overall regime defined by Fast vs Long. When Fast is above Long, the Fast→Medium zone is lime and the Medium→Long zone is green. When Fast is below Long, the Fast→Medium zone is red and the Medium→Long zone is maroon. Cloud transparency is adjustable, and the MA lines can be shown or hidden (Fast line is lime, Medium is orange, Long is blue).
Signals are optional and configurable. You can choose where Buy tags appear and where Sell tags appear independently using two dropdowns: Buy appears on and Sell appears on . A tag prints only when the candle close flips sides relative to the selected MA (below→above prints Buy, above→below prints Sell), which prevents repeated labels from printing on every bar. “Confirm Bars” keeps the same behavior you’re used to: set it to 1 for immediate printing on the flip candle, or set it to 2+ to require N consecutive closes on the new side before a tag prints, reducing whipsaw at the cost of later signals.
Key settings (minimal):
* MA Type per line: EMA or ZLEMA + Kalman
* Cloud Transparency (0–100) and Show/Hide lines
* Buy appears on / Sell appears on (Fast/Med/Long/None)
* Confirm Bars (1 = immediate, 2+ = filtered)
This indicator is best used as a visual trend framework (cloud regime + structure) with signals acting as optional “side flip” alerts on whichever MA level you consider your trigger line (fast for responsiveness, medium for balance, long for confirmation).
NQ 2026 Strategic Levels + Market MemoryTitle: NQ Strategic Levels 2026: Volume Profile & Market Memory
Description: This indicator plots the critical institutional levels for NQ (Nasdaq-100) heading into 2026. It is designed to help traders visualize the "Market Structure" map based on the 2025 yearly volume profile and key historical events.
How it Works: The script projects three dynamic "Zones" and three fixed "Historical Markers" to the right of your chart. It does not clutter the past price action; it focuses on future price discovery.
1. The 2026 Active Zones (Boxes):
🛑 Resistance (Supply Zone): Derived from the "Trapped Buyers" of late 2025. This is where overhead supply is likely to cause profit-taking.
⚖️ The Pivot (Equilibrium): Based on the Q4 2025 High Volume Node (HVN). This is the "Line in the Sand." Above this zone, the weekly bias is Bullish. Below it, the bias shifts to Bearish/Correction.
💰 The Buy Zone (Support): The Yearly Value Area Low (VAL). This represents the strongest institutional support and a high-probability area for "Buy the Dip" programs.
2. The 2025 Market Memory (Dashed Lines):
Triple Witch Liquidity: The December 2025 rejection high.
AI Summer Breakout: The key breakout level from mid-2025 that flipped from resistance to support.
Tariff Scare Floor: The macro bottom established during the volatility of April 2025.
How to Use:
Trend Followers: Watch the Pivot Zone. If price holds above it, target the Resistance Zone.
Mean Reversion Traders: Look for rejections at the Resistance Zone or bounces at the Buy Zone.
Risk Management: Use the Historical Markers as invalidated points or profit targets.
Disclaimer: These levels are based on volume analysis and historical price action. Not financial advice. Trade at your own risk.

Goldilocks Pivot FractalsGOLDILOCKS PIVOT FRACTALS - DESCRIPTION
Overview
Goldilocks Pivot Fractals identifies swing highs and lows using fractal pattern recognition with professional visual presentation. This indicator marks potential reversal points where price creates distinct peaks and valleys - perfect pivot points for support, resistance, and market structure analysis.
The "Goldilocks" name reflects the perfectly balanced visual presentation: not too cluttered, not too plain, just right for professional traders. Unlike standard fractal indicators, this edition features fully customizable Buy/Sell labels with tick-based positioning, independent toggle controls, and a high-contrast color scheme optimized for both dark and light chart themes.
What Makes It Unique:
- Professional label system with full customization (colors, sizes, tick-based offsets)
- Toggle labels and arrow shapes independently
- High-contrast default colors (teal/maroon) optimized for maximum visibility
- Clean, trader-friendly interface with intuitive settings
- Works flawlessly on all timeframes and instruments
How to Use
PERIOD ADJUSTMENT & ADJUSTING SENSITIVITY
The Period(s) setting controls how many signals you see:
• Period = 2 (default): Shows more signals, catches smaller price swings - best for day trading and scalping
• Period = 3-4: Shows medium amount of signals, filters out tiny moves - good for swing trading (holding days to weeks)
• Period = 5 or higher: Shows fewer signals, only the biggest turning points - best for long-term position trading
- Simple rule: Lower number = more signals. Higher number = fewer, but stronger signals.
SIGNALS
🟢 "BUY Label" (Down Fractal)
- Marks swing lows and potential support zones
- Look for price bouncing up after the fractal forms
- Use for identifying pullback entry points in uptrends
- Place stops below recent BUY fractals
🔴 "SELL Label" (Up Fractal)
- Marks swing highs and potential resistance zones
- Look for price rejecting down after the fractal forms
- Use for identifying profit targets or short entries
- Place stops above recent SELL fractals
REPAINTING BEHAVIOR
⚠️ This indicator repaints by design. Fractals require N bars on both sides to confirm, so they appear N bars after the actual pivot point. This is normal and ensures accurate pivot identification. Wait for complete confirmation before trading.
TRADING APPLICATIONS
1. Support/Resistance: Mark key price levels for entries and exits
2. Market Structure: higher BUY fractals = uptrend, lower SELL fractals = downtrend
3. Stop Placement: Use recent fractals as logical stop-loss levels
4. Breakout Trading: Monitor price breaking above/below fractal levels
5. Trend Following: Enter on pullbacks to BUY fractals in uptrends
6. Swing Trading: Identify major swing points for position entries
CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS
• Show BUY/SELL Labels**: Toggle professional text labels on/off

MoBo Bands - Momentum Breakout IndicatorDESCRIPTION
MoBo Bands (Momentum Breakout Bands) is a volatility-based breakout detection indicator that helps traders identify potential momentum shifts in the market. The indicator uses dynamic bands calculated from standard deviation to signal when price breaks above or below established ranges, indicating potential bullish or bearish momentum changes.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
KEY FEATURES
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
- Dynamic upper and lower bands based on standard deviation
- Color-coded bands that change based on breakout direction (green for bullish, red for bearish)
- Visual breakout arrows marking entry points above/below bands
- Optional colored fill zones between bands showing current momentum state
- Customizable displacement for band projection
- Built-in alert system for breakout and breakdown signals
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
HOW IT WORKS
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
The indicator calculates a middle line using a Simple Moving Average (SMA) with upper and lower bands positioned using standard deviation multipliers. When price closes above the upper band, a bullish breakout (green) is signaled. When price closes below the lower band, a bearish breakdown (red) is signaled. The bands and fill zones remain colored until the opposite signal occurs, providing clear visual confirmation of the current momentum state.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
CUSTOMIZABLE INPUTS
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
CALCULATION PARAMETERS:
- Price Source - Select which price data to use (default: close)
- Length - Period for SMA and standard deviation calculation (default: 10)
- Num Dev Up - Standard deviation multiplier for upper band (default: 0.8)
- Num Dev Down - Standard deviation multiplier for lower band (default: -0.8)
- Displace - Shift bands forward for projection analysis (default: 0)
DISPLAY OPTIONS:
- Colored Mobo - Enable/disable color-coded bands
- Colored Fill - Enable/disable fill zones between bands
- Break Arrows - Show/hide breakout and breakdown arrows
ALERT OPTIONS:
- Show Alerts - Enable/disable alert conditions
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
USAGE GUIDE
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Watch for price to close outside the bands as potential breakout signals:
BULLISH BREAKOUT: Green arrow appears below the lower band when price closes above the upper band, indicating upward momentum shift.
BEARISH BREAKDOWN: Red arrow appears above the upper band when price closes below the lower band, indicating downward momentum shift.
The bands also serve as dynamic support and resistance levels. When bands are green, momentum is bullish. When bands are red, momentum is bearish.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
BEST PRACTICES
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
- This indicator works well on liquid futures contracts (MNQ, MES, MYM, MGC, MCL) and major
currency pairs across multiple timeframes
- Lower deviation values (0.5-1.0) produce more frequent signals suitable for scalping
- Higher deviation values (1.5-2.5) filter for stronger breakouts ideal for swing trading
- Combine with volume indicators for additional confirmation
- Use with momentum oscillators to validate breakout strength
- Best results in trending market conditions
- Consider the overall market context and trend direction
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
ALERT CONFIGURATION
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Configure custom alerts for automated notifications:
- "MoBo BreakOUT" - Triggers on bullish breakout signals
- "MoBo BreakDOWN" - Triggers on bearish breakdown signals
Set alerts to "Once Per Bar Close" for confirmed signals and avoid false triggers during bar development.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
IDEAL FOR
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
- Day traders and scalpers on futures markets
- Swing traders looking for momentum shifts
- Breakout trading strategies
- Trend following systems
- Works on stocks, forex, crypto, and commodities
- Effective across multiple timeframes (1min to daily)
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Perfect for traders seeking clear visual breakout signals with minimal lag. The color-coded system and arrow markers make it easy to identify momentum changes at a glance.

IronRod Trigger SystemIRONROD TRIGGER SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
IronRod Trigger System is a momentum oscillator based on the Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) that identifies trend changes, momentum shifts, and range-bound "chop" zones. Features color-changing SMI lines, histogram columns showing momentum strength, and a visual chop zone that highlights when to trade versus when to stay on the sidelines.
The system combines momentum direction (green/red lines), momentum strength (histogram columns), and market context (chop zone cloud) into one clean visual package. The dynamic zero line changes color to signal trade conditions (cyan) versus hold conditions (orange).
What Makes It Unique:
Dual color-changing lines (SMI and AvgSMI) show momentum direction
Histogram columns display momentum strength
Chop zone cloud identifies low-momentum periods
Dynamic zero line (cyan = trade, orange = hold)
Three-color histogram (green = strong up, red = strong down, gray = weak)
Adjustable chop zone threshold
How to Use
THE DISPLAY
Lines:
Green = bullish momentum (rising)
Red = bearish momentum (falling)
Gray = neutral/sideways
Histogram Columns:
Green = strong bullish momentum
Red = strong bearish momentum
Gray = weak/choppy momentum
Zero Line:
Cyan (blue) = trade zone - momentum is directional
Orange = chop zone - momentum is weak, avoid trading
Chop Zone Cloud:
Gray shaded area = range where momentum is indecisive (±30 default)
TRADING STRATEGIES
1. Chop Zone Trading
Trade: Only when SMI is outside gray cloud AND zero line is cyan
Avoid: When SMI is inside cloud OR zero line is orange
Long: Green line appears above chop zone
Short: Red line appears below chop zone
This is the key feature - dramatically reduces whipsaws
2. Zero Line Crosses
Buy: SMI crosses above zero with cyan zero line
Sell: SMI crosses below zero with cyan zero line
Strongest signals when AvgSMI follows SMI across zero
Ignore crosses when zero line is orange (choppy)
3. Histogram Strength
Strong trend: Multiple consecutive green/red columns
Momentum building: Columns getting taller
Momentum fading: Columns turning gray = exit warning
Reversal signal: Gray columns after strong trend
4. Divergence Trading
Bearish divergence: Price higher high, SMI lower high → take red line signal
Bullish divergence: Price lower low, SMI higher low → take green line signal
Most powerful outside chop zone
ENTRIES & EXITS
Entries:
SMI line turns green outside chop zone (long)
SMI line turns red outside chop zone (short)
SMI crosses zero with cyan zero line
Exits:
SMI line changes color
SMI enters chop zone (orange zero line)
Histogram turns gray
Stops:
Below recent swing low (longs)
Above recent swing high (shorts)
ADJUSTING SETTINGS
Chop Zone (±) (default: 30):
Lower (15-25) = More trades, more whipsaws
Higher (35-50) = Fewer trades, higher quality
Adjust based on instrument volatility
Percent K Length (default: 5):
Lower (3-4) = More sensitive, faster signals - good for scalping
Higher (7-10) = Less sensitive, smoother - good for swing trading
Percent D Length (default: 4): Controls smoothing
SMI Bar Buffer (default: 4): Histogram color sensitivity
TIMEFRAME GUIDE
Scalping (1-5m): K=3, watch histogram color flips
Day trading (15-60m): Default settings, focus on zero crosses outside chop
Swing trading (4H-Daily): K=7-10, trade only strong trends outside chop
Key Settings
Percent K Length (default: 5): Lookback period - controls sensitivity
Percent D Length (default: 4): Smoothing period
Chop Zone (±) (default: 30): Range-bound zone threshold
SMI Bar Buffer (default: 4): Histogram color change sensitivity
Histogram Width (default: 1): Column thickness
Key Features
✅ Dual color-changing momentum lines
✅ Histogram columns show strength
✅ Chop zone cloud filters bad trades
✅ Dynamic zero line color
✅ Three-color histogram
✅ Adjustable chop threshold
✅ All timeframes
✅ Reduces whipsaws
