Trend MACD [JopAlgo]Trend MACD — momentum made obvious (4-state histogram) What it does (one line): A clean MACD histogram using EMA(fast) − EMA(slow) with a signal line. The columns change color to show trend side and momentum change at a glance. Green = above 0 and rising → positive trend, momentum building White (upside) = above 0 but fading → still positive, momentum cooling White (downside) = below 0 but improving → still negative, momentum recovering Red = below 0 and falling → negative trend, momentum building down Zero line = the bull/bear divider. Distance from zero = thrust. Color change = momentum shift. What you’ll see Dashed zero line for the trend divider Column histogram with the 4-state color logic above No clutter—just momentum and regime, clean Read it in 3 seconds: Which side of 0? Are bars getting bigger or smaller? Did the color flip? How to use it (simple playbook) Direction filter Look for longs while histogram is ≥ 0. Look for shorts while histogram is ≤ 0. Timing Green sequence (above 0, growing): join pullbacks at real levels. White above 0: positive but cooling—buy pullbacks only at levels, don’t chase. White below 0: negative but improving—prepare for reclaim trades at levels. Red sequence: trend down—sell pops at levels. Location first (always) Use Volume Profile v3.2 (VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs) and Anchored VWAP (session/weekly/event). No level, no trade. Quality check (optional, strong) CVDv1 : execute when Alignment OK and no Absorption against your side. RVOL (if you track it): prefer breakouts with RVOL above cutoff. Entries, exits, risk (keep it tight) Continuation long: price retests VAL / AVWAP / MA cluster in an up regime (≥ 0). Histogram stays ≥ 0 and turns green again → enter. Stop: under structure. Targets: POC/HVNs or next swing. Break + retest: breakout through a level while histogram flips from white→green above 0 (or white→red below 0 for shorts). Enter on the retest that holds. Trim / avoid: when bars shrink toward 0 (white) into your target / HVN—momentum is cooling. Don’t chase fresh highs with white bars. Settings that matter (how to tune) Fast Length (default 25) Shorter = quicker turns (more noise). Longer = steadier, slower. Slow Length (default 200) Big backbone. For intraday you might use 21/55 or 12/26; for swing the default 25/200 or 20/100 is solid. Signal Smoothing (default 9) Higher = smoother, fewer flips. Lower = more reactive. Source close is fine; if you use hlc3, expect slightly smoother behavior. Suggested presets Scalp (1–5m): 12 / 26 / 9 Intraday (15m–1H): 21 / 55 / 9 Swing (2H–4H): 25 / 100 or 25 / 200 / 9 Daily backdrop: 20 / 100 or 50 / 200 / 9 (execute on lower TF) Pattern cheat sheet Green staircase above 0 → trend leg; buy pullbacks to VP/AVWAP. White above 0 → positive but tiring; avoid chasing; wait for retest. Flip through 0 with expansion → regime change; use the first retest at a level. Red staircase below 0 → trend down; sell pops at VP edges. Diverging price vs shrinking bars → momentum thinning; tighten risk. Best combos (kept simple) Volume Profile v3.2: entries at VAH/VAL/LVNs, targets at POC/HVNs. Anchored VWAP: reclaim/reject with matching histogram side is high-quality timing. CVDv1: take MACD-aligned setups with flow (ALIGN OK, no Absorption). RVOL: confirmation that the push has participation. Common mistakes this helps you avoid Longs with red momentum or shorts with green momentum. Chasing new highs on white (cooling) bars. Trading mid-range when histogram keeps whipsawing around 0 (do less; wait for level). Disclaimer: This indicator is an educational tool, not financial advice. Markets are risky; you can lose money.

MTF State of Delivery by @traderprimezOverview This indicator provides a comprehensive, multi-timeframe view of institutional orderflow, a core concept from Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodologies. It is designed to objectively identify the market's "State of Delivery"—whether price is currently in a bullish or bearish orderflow—on both your current chart (Lower Timeframe) and a relevant Higher Timeframe. By visualizing these key directional shifts, the indicator helps traders align with the dominant market bias, identify high-probability setups, and avoid trading against the underlying institutional intent. Core Concept: The Orderflow Switch The entire logic is built upon a specific two-candle price action pattern called a "Switch," which signals a potential turning point in the market. Bullish Switch: A bullish candle followed immediately by a bearish candle. This duo creates a short-term resistance level. Orderflow is confirmed Bullish when a later bullish candle closes above this level. Bearish Switch: A bearish candle followed immediately by a bullish candle. This duo creates a short-term support level. Orderflow is confirmed Bearish when a later bearish candle closes below this level. Features & How to Read the Chart This indicator plots several visual elements to provide a complete picture of the market's state: Status Table: Located at the top of the chart, this table provides an at-a-glance summary of the current State of Delivery for both the Higher Timeframe (HTF) and Lower Timeframe (LTF). The status cells dynamically change color to reflect the current bias (Blue for Bullish, Red for Bearish). Confirmed Orderflow Lines: Thick Solid Lines: These represent the confirmed orderflow on the Higher Timeframe. A thick blue line indicates the HTF is in a bullish state, while a thick red line indicates a bearish state. Thin Solid Lines: These represent the confirmed orderflow on your current chart (LTF). A thin blue line confirms a local bullish shift, and a thin red line confirms a local bearish shift. Pending Switch Levels (Dotted Lines): These forward-extending dotted lines mark the most recent switch levels that have not yet been broken. They represent the "lines in the sand"—the exact price levels that need to be breached to confirm the next shift in orderflow on both the LTF and HTF. Multi-Timeframe Analysis The indicator's power comes from its ability to sync LTF price action with the HTF narrative. It automatically determines the relevant HTF based on your current chart, using the following logical pairings: 1m or 3m chart 15 Minute 5m chart 1 Hour 15m chart 4 Hour 1h chart 1 Day 4h chart 1 Week 1d chart 1 Month Note: The HTF feature will be inactive on unmapped timeframes. How to Use in Your Trading This tool is designed to be a confluence factor in your trading system, not a standalone signal generator. High-Probability Setups: The strongest signals occur when the LTF confirms an orderflow shift that is in the same direction as the established HTF bias. For example, look for long entries after a thin blue LTF line appears while the dominant HTF line is also blue. Confirmation: Use the break of a pending (dotted) line as a final confirmation for an entry you have already identified through your own analysis (e.g., at a Fair Value Gap or Order Block). Risk Management: An opposing orderflow shift can serve as an early warning to manage a trade or take profits. For instance, if you are long and a bearish (red) LTF orderflow is confirmed, it may signal that the short-term momentum is shifting against you. Settings The indicator is fully customizable, allowing you to: Toggle the visibility of the Status Table, HTF/LTF confirmed lines, and HTF/LTF pending lines. Customize the colors and line widths for all elements to match your chart theme. Disclaimer: This tool is for educational and analytical purposes only. It is not financial advice. All trading involves substantial risk, and past performance is not indicative of future results. Please perform your own due diligence and risk management.

Smoothed Heiken Ashi Candles [JopAlgo]Smoothed Heiken Ashi Candles — cleaner bias, less noise, better timing What it does (one line): Builds a two-stage smoothed Heiken Ashi view so you can read trend vs. pullback without the usual candle noise. Color does the talking: Lime = bullish state (close ≥ open on the smoothed HA feed) Red = bearish state Under the hood: price is EMA-smoothed ( Length len ), converted to Heiken Ashi, then smoothed again ( Length len2 ). Net effect: fewer whips, clearer swings. What you’ll see A full candle chart of Smoothed HA (o₂/h₂/l₂/c₂). Color rule: o₂ > c₂ → red (bearish), otherwise lime (bullish). No extra clutter—just an easy bias read you can trust at a glance. Read in 3 seconds: What color? What slope? Are pullbacks shallow or deep relative to the last swing? How to use it (simple, repeatable) Bias filter: Trade longs while candles are lime. Trade shorts while candles are red. Where to act (location first): Use Volume Profile v3.2 (VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs) and Anchored VWAP for entries/targets. No level, no trade. When to click (timing): Continuation: In lime, buy the first pullback that holds a level (VAL/AVWAP/MA cluster) and prints a fresh lime close. Mirror for red shorts. Reclaim/Reject: A color flip that happens at a level (e.g., AVWAP reclaim → turns lime) is higher quality than a random mid-range flip. Quality check (optional, strong): If you use CVDv1 , prefer setups with Alignment OK and no Absorption against your side. Timeframe guidance 1–5m (scalps): Keep len / len2 shorter (e.g., 5 / 5 or 6 / 8) to avoid lag. 15m–1H (intraday): Default 10 / 10 is a sweet spot. 2H–4H (swing): Try 14–20 / 10–14 for smoother swings. 1D+ (position): 20–34 / 14–20 for backdrop; execute on a lower TF. Settings that actually matter (and how to tune) Smoothing Length for Original OHLC (len) Controls the base smoothness before HA. Lower = more reactive, more flips. Higher = steadier bias, more lag. Smoothing Length for Heiken Ashi (len2) Controls the final polish of the HA feed. Lower = earlier turns (noisier). Higher = fewer flips (slower). Practical tip: If you get too many color flips, raise len2 first. If it feels sluggish at entries, lower len slightly. Entries, exits, and risk (keep it tight) Entry — continuation: In lime, wait for a pullback to VAL / AVWAP / MA cluster, then a new lime close → enter. Stop: below structure/last swing. Targets: POC/HVNs or prior swing high/low. Entry — reclaim/reject: Color flips at a level (e.g., AVWAP reclaim turns lime) → enter with the level holding. Invalidation: immediate flip back on the next bar and level loss. Manage: If color stays with you but progress stalls at HVNs, trim. If color flips against your position, tighten or exit unless higher-TF context argues to hold. Best combos with other tools Volume Profile v3.2: Use VAH/VAL/LVNs/POC for where to act; Smoothed HA tells you if trend context supports the trade. Anchored VWAP: A reclaim/rejection with matching HA color is a high-quality timing cue. CVDv1: Take color-aligned trades with flow (Alignment OK, strong Imbalance, no Absorption). Patterns you’ll recognize Walk-of-color: Multiple same-color bars with rising/lowering bodies → ride pullbacks to level; don’t fade. Color flip at level: The cleanest reversal context (e.g., red→lime on a VAL reclaim). Chop tell: Rapid lime↔red flips mid-range → do less; only trade edges. Practical defaults to start len = 10, len2 = 10 Timeframes: 15m–4H out of the box Process: Location → Color/Bias → Timing bar → (optional) CVD check → Structure-based risk Serious Disclaimer & Licensing This indicator and description are provided for educational purposes only and do not constitute financial, investment, or trading advice.

IDX Fraction (Tick) Levels – Visualizes Indonesia’s price-fraction (tick) brackets. This matters because tick size changes by price range—very useful for scalpers and fast traders. ARA/ARB Levels (Realtime) – Plots Auto-Reject Upper (ARA) and Auto-Reject Lower (ARB) levels in real time. Levels refresh in line with IDX trading hours 09:00–16:00 WIB (UTC+7), so your view stays consistent both during and outside market hours. This feature already complies with the latest rules and adjustments set by the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). Suspension Status – Shows SUSPENDED if the stock is halted/suspended, helping you avoid unnecessary analysis. The suspension check compares today’s date with the last available candle date and accounts for weekends. Note: WIB = Western Indonesia Time (UTC+7).

Smart Choppy Index v1 [JopAlgo]Smart Choppy Index v1 — decide trend vs. chop in seconds What it does (one line): Measures the percent range of price over a lookback and tells you if the market is choppy (do less, fade edges) or trending (go with breaks/pullbacks). Range% = (Highest High − Lowest Low) / Close × 100 over length Below Choppy Threshold → likely range (red tint / X marker) Above Trending Threshold → likely trend (green tint / ● marker) Between them = mixed/transition (no background) Read the pane fast Orange line: the live Range%. Red dashed line: Choppy Threshold. Green dashed line: Trending Threshold. Background: soft red during chop, soft green during trend. Markers: X at the top when chop is detected, ● at the bottom when trend is detected. TL;DR: Red = play defense / mean-revert. Green = play offense / trend-follow. Simple playbook (copy this into your process) Identify regime Choppy (Range% < red line): prefer mean-reversion at VP edges / AVWAP; smaller targets, quicker exits. Trending (Range% > green line): prefer breakouts + pullbacks; hold to POC/HVNs or structure. Only execute at real locations Volume Profile v3.2 : VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs for entries/targets. Anchored VWAP : reclaims/rejections for timing. Quality check (optional, recommended) CVDv1 : execute with flow (Alignment OK, strong Imbalance, no Absorption against your side). Risk Stops go beyond structure/level, not on indicator flips. If regime flips right after entry (green → red or red → green), consider tightening or exiting early. Timeframe guidance 1–5m (scalps): length 14–20. You’ll see more flips—use thresholds a touch wider and execute only at edges. 15m–1H (intraday): length 14–34. Sweet spot for day trading bias. 2H–4H (swing): length 20–50. Fewer, cleaner signals; great for planning. 1D+ (position): length 50–100. Use as backdrop; trigger on lower TFs. Settings that actually matter (and how to tune) Lookback Period (length) Shorter = faster regime changes; longer = smoother, fewer flips. Choppy Threshold (%) / Trending Threshold (%) Calibrate by history: scroll back and mark typical Range% during range days vs trend days for your market/TF. If you get too many trend flags, raise the green threshold. If everything looks “choppy,” lower the red threshold slightly. Background color Turn off if your chart feels busy; markers remain. How to trade it with other tools In Chop (red): Fade VAH/VAL/AVWAP touches toward POC with tight stops. Confirm with CVDv1 (avoid longs if Absorption is red, etc.). In Trend (green): Break + retest at VP levels/AVWAP. Add on pullbacks that hold while Range% stays above the green line. Patterns to recognize Squeeze → Expansion: Range% ramps from below red toward/through green → expect a trend phase. Exhaustion → Balance: After a long green phase, Range% falls back toward the middle → take profits into HVNs, expect more two-way trade. False break tell: Level poke while Range% sits near red → low odds of follow-through; prefer reclaims. Practical defaults to start length = 14 Choppy Threshold = 1.5% Trending Threshold = 2.5% Process: Regime → Location → Flow → Execute with structure-based risk Serious Disclaimer & Licensing This script and description are provided for educational purposes only and do not constitute financial, investment, or trading advice.

Mitigation Blocks — Lite (ICT) + Arrows + Stats📌 Mitigation Blocks — Lite (ICT-Based) + Arrows This indicator detects mitigation blocks based on price structure shifts, inspired by ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts. It works by identifying strong impulses and highlighting the last opposite candle, forming a mitigation block zone for potential reversal or continuation trades. 🔍 Features: ✅ Automatic detection of bullish and bearish mitigation blocks 🟩 Box visualization with border color change on mitigation (first touch) 📉 ATR-based impulse filtering 📌 Entry arrows on first mitigation (touch) 📊 Autoscale anchors for better chart readability 📈 Real-time HUD info panel 📉 Backtest-friendly design (stable, deterministic logic) 🛠️ How it works: Detects swing highs/lows using pivot points. Confirms impulse candles breaking recent structure. Locates the last opposite candle as the mitigation block. Displays a block box until price revisits the zone. On the first touch (mitigation), the block is marked and arrows are drawn. 💡 Ideal Use Case: Apply this on higher timeframes (e.g., 4H) to identify potential limit order zones. Use the blocks as entry zones and combine with confluence: FVGs, imbalance, S&D, or liquidity levels. 🧠 Extra Tip: You can extend this script to include: Win-rate tracking Auto TP/SL levels based on ATR Confluence detection (e.g., FVG, order blocks)

Rate of Change Indicator [JopAlgo] (ROCI)Rate of Change Indicator (ROCI) — see impulse early, skip the dead moves What it is (one line): ROCI tells you how fast price changed vs N bars ago , in percent. It’s a clean momentum gauge: Above 0 → price is higher than N bars ago (bullish momentum). Below 0 → price is lower than N bars ago (bearish momentum). Further from 0 → stronger impulse. The default +5 / −5 bands highlight strong thrust . Zero-line crosses flag momentum shifts. What you’ll see Blue line = ROCI. Orange dotted line = 0 (bull/bear divider). White dotted lines = ±Strong Momentum levels (default ±5). Green/red panel tint when ROCI lives above +5 or below −5. Read in 3 seconds: Which side of 0? How far? Growing or fading vs last bar? How to use it (simple playbook) Direction filter Trade longs only while ROCI > 0. Trade shorts only while ROCI < 0. Timing Breakouts: prefer breaks where ROCI pushes through +5/−5 and holds on the first retest. Pullbacks in trend: in an uptrend, let ROCI dip toward 0 and then turn back up → entry. (Mirror for downtrends.) Do less in chop If ROCI whips around near 0, you’re in balance. Only act at objective levels. Rule of thumb: Zero cross = heads-up. ±5 hold = go-with. Entries, exits, risk (use this, keep it tight) Continuation entry (trend): Bias up at your level (e.g., VAL/AVWAP). ROCI stays > 0 and turns up from a shallow dip → enter long. Stop: under structure/level. Targets: POC/HVNs or next swing. Breakout entry: Break through a level with ROCI > +5 (or < −5 for shorts). Enter on the retest that holds while ROCI remains outside the band. Invalidation: quick fall back inside the band and under 0 → stand down. Exit/trim: On longs, repeated lower ROCI peaks into your target (momentum fading) → take profits or tighten. Timeframe guide 1–5m (scalps) : ROC Period 10–20, Strong 6–10. Many signals; require level + confirmation. 15m–1H (intraday): ROC Period 14–34, Strong 4–7. Sweet spot. 2H–4H (swing): ROC Period 20–50, Strong 3–6. Cleaner legs, fewer flips. 1D+ (position): ROC Period 50–100, Strong 2–5. Use for backdrop; trigger on lower TF. Settings that actually matter (and how to tune) ROC Period (default 32) : lookback for comparison. Shorter = earlier signals, more noise. Longer = steadier bias, slower turns. Strong Momentum Threshold (default 5) : where you say “this is real thrust.” Pick it by history: scroll back, mark thrusts that ran, and note their typical ROCI. Set the band slightly inside that value so you see the start of good moves. Pattern cheatsheet Impulse leg : ROCI above 0 making higher peaks → trend leg in progress. Healthy pullback : ROCI dips toward 0 but doesn’t flip negative, then turns up → add/entry with trend. Weak breakout / likely fail: Price pokes level but ROCI stays near 0 or rolls over quickly. Divergence (lightweight): Price makes a higher high, ROCI peaks lower → momentum thinning; trail tight into HVNs. Best combos (kept simple) Volume Profile v3.2 : Use VAH/VAL/LVNs/POC for where. ROCI tells you if the break has juice. Anchored VWAP : Reclaim/reject AVWAP with ROCI on the correct side of 0 for higher quality. CVDv1 : Yes: ROCI thrust + CVD Alignment OK + no Absorption → higher odds the move sticks. No: ROCI thrust but Absorption red → don’t chase; wait for the fail/reclaim. (Optional add: RVOL—high participation + strong ROCI is the A+ combo for breaks.) Common mistakes this avoids Buying a breakout while ROCI sits near 0 (no impulse). Shorting a strong trend when ROCI is firmly > 0 (or > +5). Treating every zero cross as a trade (it’s a heads-up, not an entry by itself). Quick defaults to start ROC Period: 32 Strong Threshold: 5 Process: Level → ROCI side/strength → (optionally) CVD quality → Execute with structure-based risk Screenshots tip: show a level break where ROCI pushes through +5 and a pullback where ROCI turns up from ~0. Mini-disclaimer Educational tool, not financial advice. Test first, size sensibly, and always anchor decisions to levels, flow, and risk.

Basic Odds Enhancer: Supply Zone for ShortsHow to Use/Adjust: On your chart, it marks bars where a 20-bar high coincides with high volume and bearish divergence—flag these as supply zones. Tweak supply_threshold to 2.0 for stricter volume (fewer but stronger signals). For zones, manually draw rectangles around the flagged area (use Drawing Tools > Rectangle). Backtest: Apply to historical data (e.g., EUR/USD 4H) and check win rate with shorts on retests. This setup typically yields 2-5 signals per week on major pairs, depending on volatility. Test on a demo account, and combine with market context (e.g., avoid shorts in strong uptrends).

Opening Range Gaps [TakingProphets]What is an Opening Range Gap (ORG)? In ICT, the Opening Range Gap is defined as the price difference between the previous session’s close (e.g., 4:00 PM EST in U.S. indices) and the current day’s open (9:30 AM EST). That gap is a liquidity void—an area where no trading occurred during regular hours. Why ICT Traders Care About ORG Liquidity Void (Gap Fill Logic) -Because the gap is an untraded area, it naturally acts as a draw on liquidity. -Price often seeks to rebalance by retracing into or fully filling this void. Premium/Discount Sensitivity -Once the ORG is defined, ICT treats it as a mini dealing range. -Above EQ (Consequent Encroachment) = algorithmic premium (sell-sensitive). -Below EQ = algorithmic discount (buy-sensitive). -Price reaction at these levels gives a precise read on institutional intent intraday. Support/Resistance from ORG -If the session opens above prior close, the gap often acts as support until violated. -If the session opens below prior close, the gap often acts as resistance until reclaimed. Key ICT Concepts Anchored to ORG Consequent Encroachment (CE): The midpoint of the gap. The algo is highly sensitive to CE as a decision point: reject → continuation; reclaim → reversal. Draw on Liquidity (DoL): Price is algorithmically “pulled” toward gap fills, CE, or the opposite side of the ORG. Order Flow Confirmation: If price ignores the gap and runs away from it, this signals strong institutional order flow in that direction. Confluence with Other Tools: FVGs, OBs, and HTF PD arrays often overlap with ORG levels, strengthening setups. Practical Application for Traders Bias Formation: Use ORG EQ as a line in the sand for intraday bias. If price trades below ORG EQ after the open → look for short setups into the prior day’s low or external liquidity. If price trades above ORG EQ → favor longs into highs/liquidity pools. Execution Framework: Wait for liquidity raids or market structure shifts at ORG edges (.00, .25, .50, .75). Target: EQ, opposite quarter, or full gap fill. Precision Reads: ORG lines let traders anticipate where algorithms are likely to respond, providing mechanical invalidation and clear targets without clutter.
