High Volume Breakout DetectorThis indicator is a dedicated volume analysis tool displayed in a separate pane below the price chart. It visually highlights significant volume surges (spikes) by comparing the current bar's volume to a dynamic threshold based on a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of volume. Key Concepts and Methodology: - The core calculation uses a user-configurable Simple Moving Average (default: 20 periods) of historical volume to establish a baseline of "normal" trading activity. - A customizable multiplier (default: 1.50, meaning 150% of the SMA) defines the threshold for a volume spike. When the current bar's volume meets or exceeds this threshold, it is classified as a spike—indicating unusually high participation that often accompanies breakouts, reversals, climaxes, or institutional activity. - Volume bars are plotted as columns and colored based on two factors: - Candle direction: Green shades for bullish candles (close ≥ open), red shades for bearish candles (close < open). - Spike status: Brighter/solid colors for confirmed spikes, muted/translucent colors for normal volume. This candle-matched coloring helps traders quickly assess whether the surge supports buying pressure (green spike on up candle) or selling/distribution (red spike on down candle). - Optional overlays include the volume SMA line (blue) and the dynamic threshold line (orange, plotted as circles for easy distinction). Features and Customization: - Fully adjustable inputs: SMA length, multiplier threshold, colors for up/down/normal/spike bars, and toggles for showing the SMA line, threshold line, or background highlighting on spikes. - Built-in alert condition triggers reliably on volume spikes (≥ selected multiplier of SMA), with a constant message string including ticker, timeframe, volume value, and threshold reference. How to Use: - Add to any chart in a separate pane (overlay=false). - Look for brighter colored volume bars as potential signals of conviction in price moves. For example: - Green spikes on up candles may signal strong accumulation or breakout confirmation. - Red spikes on down candles may indicate distribution or exhaustion selling. - Combine with price action, support/resistance, or trend indicators for confluence. - Ideal for day trading, swing trading, or spotting volume climaxes on stocks, forex, crypto, or futures across any timeframe. The unique combination of candle-direction-matched coloring for spikes, visual threshold plotting, and focused spike highlighting provides clearer, more actionable insight into directional volume pressure compared to standard volume displays.

BTC ETF Average Inflow Cost BasisConcept Since the historic launch of Bitcoin Spot ETFs on January 11, 2024, institutional flows have become a major driver of price action. This indicator aims to visualize the aggregate Cost Basis (average entry price) of the major Bitcoin ETFs relative to the underlying asset. It serves as an on-chain proxy for institutional positioning, helping traders identify critical support levels where ETF inflows have historically concentrated. How it Works The script aggregates daily volume data from the top Bitcoin ETFs (IBIT, FBTC, ARKB, GBTC, BITB) and compares it against the Bitcoin price (BTCUSDT). ETF Cost Basis (Pink Line): This is calculated as a Cumulative Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP), anchored specifically to the ETF launch date (Jan 11, 2024). Formula: It accumulates (BTC Price * Total ETF Volume) and divides it by the Cumulative Total ETF Volume. This creates a dynamic level representing the "breakeven" price for the aggregate volume traded through these funds. True Market Mean (Gray Line): This represents the simple cumulative average of the Bitcoin price since the ETF launch date. It acts as a neutral baseline for the post-ETF market era. How to Use Institutional Support: The Cost Basis line often acts as a strong dynamic support level during corrections. When price revisits this level, it suggests the market is returning to the average institutional entry price. Trend Filter: Price > Cost Basis: The market is in a net profit state relative to ETF flows (Bullish/Trend continuation). Price < Cost Basis: The market is in a net loss state (Bearish/Capitulation risk). Confluence: The intersection of the Cost Basis and the True Market Mean can signal pivotal moments of trend reset. Features Data Aggregation: Pulls data from 5 major ETFs via request.security without repainting (using closed bars). Dashboard: Includes a table in the top-right corner displaying real-time values for Price, Cost Basis, and Market Mean. Customization: You can toggle individual ETF Moving Averages in the settings (disabled by default due to price scale differences between BTC and ETF shares). Disclaimer This tool is for educational purposes only and attempts to estimate institutional cost basis using volume proxies. It does not represent financial advice.

Liquidity ZonesLiquidity Zones Liquidity Zones is a price-action–based indicator designed to identify high-probability support and resistance areas where liquidity has historically accumulated. Instead of drawing single lines, the script builds dynamic price zones based on repeated pivot reactions validated by volume, helping traders focus on meaningful levels rather than noise. How It Works Pivot Detection The indicator scans historical price data for pivot highs and pivot lows using a fixed pivot strength. Each pivot represents a potential liquidity interaction point. Volume Qualification A pivot is only considered valid if the volume at the pivot bar exceeds: Volume SMA × Sensitivity This filters out weak or low-participation levels and keeps zones formed during strong market interest. Zone Construction Nearby pivots are grouped into a single zone if their price difference stays within an ATR-based threshold. Each time price reacts within this threshold, the zone’s touch count increases. Once the minimum number of touches is reached, a liquidity zone is drawn and extended to the right. Adaptive Zone Expansion As new qualifying pivots appear, zones automatically expand to reflect the true liquidity range instead of staying static. Dynamic Zone Coloring Zones update their color in real time based on price position: Green (Support) → Price is above the zone Red (Resistance) → Price is below the zone Gray (In-Zone) → Price is trading inside the zone This allows instant visual feedback on whether a level is acting as support, resistance, or an active liquidity area. Settings Overview Bars to Apply Controls how much historical data is scanned for liquidity zones. Volume Sensitivity Higher values require stronger volume spikes to validate pivots, resulting in fewer but higher-quality zones. Styling Options Fully customizable colors and transparency for support, resistance, and in-zone states. Best Use Cases Identifying high-liquidity support and resistance zones Planning entries, exits, and stop placement Combining with trend-following or momentum indicators Filtering out weak levels in sideways or choppy markets

Support and ResistanceSupport & Resistance Zones This indicator automatically identifies support and resistance zones by clustering confirmed pivot highs and lows into statistically valid price areas. Instead of drawing single horizontal lines, it creates price zones whose width is dynamically controlled using ATR (Average True Range), allowing the zones to adapt to market volatility. Core Logic The indicator scans a user-defined number of historical bars and detects pivot highs and pivot lows using a configurable pivot strength. Each new pivot is evaluated against previously detected zones: A zone becomes visible only after receiving sufficient confirmation (minimum number of pivot touches). This ensures that only structurally meaningful levels are drawn. Zone Construction Rules Zones are formed by grouping pivot points whose total price range remains within ATR range Each zone expands dynamically as new pivots confirm it Zones are drawn as rectangular areas, not lines Zones extend to the right, remaining active until price structure changes This approach avoids over-plotting and reduces noise commonly seen in traditional support/resistance tools. Dynamic Zone Coloring Zones automatically change color based on current price position: Support Color → Price is above the zone Resistance Color → Price is below the zone Neutral (In-Zone) Color → Price is trading inside the zone This makes it easy to visually assess market context without additional indicators. Inputs Explained Logic Settings Bars to Apply Number of historical bars scanned to detect pivots and construct zones. Pivot Strength Number of candles required on both sides of a pivot high/low for confirmation. Min Pivot Confirmation Minimum number of aligned pivots required before a zone is drawn. Styling Support, resistance, and in-zone colors Zone fill transparency Why This Approach Uses price structure, not arbitrary levels Adapts to market volatility via ATR Filters out weak, single-touch levels Works across all markets and timeframes This indicator is designed to highlight areas of interest, not generate buy or sell signals. It is best used in combination with trend, momentum, or volume-based tools.

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

REM Algo - Earnings AlertsNot everyone wants to hold positions through earnings announcements — and if you’re evaluating a strategy, earnings-related gaps can distort performance metrics and make results harder to interpret. This script helps you manage earnings risk by triggering alerts during an Earnings Blackout window. You can: get an alert to close positions the day before earnings, and/or receive a reminder not to open new positions on blackout days prior to the earnings announcement. Add alerts to the stocks you trade. When a blackout day occurs, the script triggers at the hour and minute you choose in the settings. The Earnings Blackout period covers the day before and the day of the earnings announcement, adjusted for weekends and market holidays. Use it as a standalone risk-control tool — or alongside your existing strategy — so earnings gaps don’t interfere with your trading rules or your backtest results.

Absorption DetectorSource: Prof Michael G. Credit: GreatestUsername for the coding & implementation. Zones of Support and Resistance can feel like drawing boxes on the chart. This indicator to help spot areas of possible reversal. It uses Volume Confirmation and Body-to-Wick Ratio to do this and defined as: 1. Volume Confirmation High Volume: A candle that absorbs sitting limit orders is often accompanied with higher than average volume. The indicator define this type of candle if it has a volume is greater than 250%/350% of the average volume over the last 10 candles. 2. Body-to-Wick Ratio Body vs. Wick: A candle with a small body and large wicks can indicate higher probability of reversal. You can define an absorption candle if the body of the candle is less than 50% of the total range (high-low). These settings are also customizable to your own desired settings and should be used as a visual aid.

MA Cross + Trend Stats (Probabilistic)Short description (one-liner) A MA-regime framework with historical regime stats + forward performance + optional trend/noise filters for trending context. ________________________________________ Full description (TradingView-ready) Overview This indicator turns a classic Moving Average Cross into a regime-based trend dashboard. Instead of treating a cross as a standalone “buy/sell” event, it measures what historically happened after similar regime shifts on the current symbol and timeframe, and displays the results in a compact table. It supports: • EMA or SMA • Custom fast/slow lengths (including .5 lengths via floor/ceil averaging) • Optional trend quality filters for trending decisions: o Slope filter (Slow MA slope) o Market noise filter using Efficiency Ratio (ER) in real time ________________________________________ What the table shows (how to read it) The table has two rows: Bull (Fast > Slow) and Bear (Slow > Fast). Metrics are computed on completed regimes (historical segments that already ended). N Number of completed regimes measured. More samples generally means more stable estimates. μ Δ% / Med Δ% Average and median regime return from regime start to regime end. Median helps reduce the impact of outliers. ⏱ Bars Average regime duration (in bars). Useful to calibrate realistic holding expectations for trending. ⬆ MFE% / ⬇ MAE% • MFE (Maximum Favorable Excursion): max move in favor during the regime • MAE (Maximum Adverse Excursion): max move against during the regime These are context metrics for typical run-up and typical heat. ER μ | Hit Trend-quality proxy: • ER μ: average Efficiency Ratio during regimes (0–1, higher = more directional / less noisy) • Hit: % of regimes with ER above the historical threshold you set Forward performance (+H μ|Hit) For two user-defined horizons (e.g., +10 / +20 bars): • μ: average forward return after the cross • Hit: probability (%) that the forward return was positive This is designed to provide probabilistic context, not certainty. ________________________________________ “Trending” decision filters (optional) These filters apply to signals/alerts/markers, not to the raw regime statistics: 1. Slope filter (Slow MA): Only allow Bull signals if the Slow MA slope is positive (and Bear signals if negative). 2. Market noise filter (ER realtime): Only allow signals when current ER exceeds your chosen threshold (helps avoid choppy conditions). ________________________________________ Suggested usage (educational) • Treat Bull/Bear as a regime label (state), not a prediction. • Use Forward Hit% as an estimate of historical frequency, not a guarantee. • If ER realtime is below threshold, consider it a noisier environment (higher whipsaw risk). • Combine with your own risk rules and confirmation (structure, volatility, volume, HTF context, etc.). ________________________________________ Notes • Results depend on symbol, timeframe, and loaded history. • Statistics are historical summaries and can change as more data becomes available. • This tool is intended for research and decision support, not as standalone trade advice. ________________________________________ Disclaimer This script is for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute financial, investment, or trading advice. Trading involves risk. You are responsible for your own decisions and risk management.

AperonFx Pivot Points ATRThis indicator builds on classic pivot point methodology and enhances it with volatility-based ATR offsets to define adaptive support and resistance zones. The pivot level is derived from the prior period’s price data, while the surrounding levels are calculated using the current day’s ATR to reflect prevailing market conditions. Support and resistance are placed at incremental distances of 0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2 ATR away from the pivot, creating a structured price framework. Users can adjust the pivot calculation method, reference timeframe, and visual presentation to suit their workflow.
