### 3. STRATEGY A: The Trend Pullback (High Win Rate)
*Use this when the market is trending smoothly.*
#### ✅ HOW TO ENTER A LONG (BUY) POSITION
1. **Trend Check:** Price is trading **ABOVE** the VWAP (Blue Line) and EMA 9 (Yellow Line).
2. **The Wait:** Wait for the price to drop back down (pullback).
3. **The Zone:** Price touches the **Green Demand Zone** OR the **Orange Golden Pocket**.
4. **The Trigger:** A **Green FVG Box** appears on the 5-minute chart.
5. **Execution:** Enter Long. Stop Loss below the recent low. Take Profit at the next Red Zone.
#### 🔻 HOW TO ENTER A SHORT (SELL) POSITION
1. **Trend Check:** Price is trading **BELOW** the VWAP (Blue Line) and EMA 9 (Yellow Line).
2. **The Wait:** Wait for the price to rally up (pullback).
3. **The Zone:** Price touches the **Red Supply Zone** OR the **Orange Golden Pocket**.
4. **The Trigger:** A **Red FVG Box** appears on the 5-minute chart.
5. **Execution:** Enter Short. Stop Loss above the recent high. Take Profit at the next Green Zone.
---
### 4. STRATEGY B: The IB Breakout (Volatility)
*Use this specifically after the first hour of the New York Session (approx. 10:30 NY time).*
* **The Setup:** Look at the **Yellow Box (Initial Balance)** which marks the high/low of the first hour.
* **Bullish Breakout:** If a candle closes **above** the Yellow Box + Price is above VWAP → **Go Long**.
* **Bearish Breakdown:** If a candle closes **below** the Yellow Box + Price is below VWAP → **Go Short**.
* **The Trap (Fakeout):** If price breaks out but immediately falls back inside the Yellow Box, close the trade immediately.
---
### 5. DAILY ROUTINE (Checklist)
1. **Open TradingView:** Switch to the **15m Chart**.
2. **Check Context:** Where are we? Are we near a big Red Box (Supply) or Green Box (Demand)?
3. **Check Trend:** Is price above or below the Blue VWAP line?
4. **Wait for the Open:** Let the first hour of New York pass (to form the Yellow IB Box).
5. **Set Alerts:** Right-click the chart and set alerts for "IB Breakout" or "Golden Pocket".
6. **Execute:** Switch to the **5m Chart** to find your entry trigger (FVG).
---
### 6. RISK MANAGEMENT RULES
* **Stop Loss:** NEVER trade without one. Place it just outside the FVG box or the Zone.
* **Risk per Trade:** 1% to 2% of your account maximum.
* **No Trade Zone:** If the price is "chopping" (moving sideways) inside the Yellow IB Box, **do not trade**. Wait for a breakout.

Current & Prior Day OHLC Levels# Current & Prior Day OHLC Levels with 15-Minute Opening Range
## Overview
This comprehensive indicator plots key price levels for futures and stock traders, displaying Current Day levels, Prior Day levels, and the 15-Minute Opening Range. These levels serve as critical support and resistance zones that professional traders monitor throughout the trading session.
## Key Features
### Current Day Levels (Session-Based)
- **Current Open**: The opening price of the current trading session
- **Current High**: The highest price reached during the current session (updates in real-time)
- **Current Low**: The lowest price reached during the current session (updates in real-time)
The indicator properly recognizes **futures trading sessions**, which begin at their respective session start times (not midnight). For example, most equity index futures sessions begin at 6:00 PM ET the previous day, ensuring accurate session-based tracking for overnight and globex trading.
### Prior Day Levels
- **Prior Open**: Opening price from the previous trading session
- **Prior High**: High of the previous trading session
- **Prior Low**: Low of the previous trading session
- **Prior Close**: Closing price from the previous trading session
Prior day levels are some of the most widely watched technical levels in trading, often acting as psychological support and resistance zones where price action tends to react.
### 15-Minute Opening Range (NY Session)
- **OR High**: The high of the first 15 minutes after New York market open (9:30-9:45 AM ET)
- **OR Low**: The low of the first 15 minutes after New York market open (9:30-9:45 AM ET)
The opening range concept is a popular day trading strategy. The first 15 minutes often establishes the tone for the day, with these levels frequently serving as breakout or breakdown points. The indicator tracks these levels in real-time as they form, then locks them in after 9:45 AM ET.
## Visual Design
### Smart Line Extension
- Lines extend **left** to the exact bar that created each level (e.g., the bar that made the high)
- Lines extend **right** by a configurable number of bars (default: 50 bars)
- No infinite line extension cluttering your chart
### Intelligent Label Placement
- Labels positioned **above** highs and opens
- Labels positioned **below** lows
- Adjustable offset to position labels optimally for your timeframe
- Optional price display in labels (e.g., "Current High: 5,950.00")
- Semi-transparent label backgrounds for clean chart appearance
## Customization Options
### Individual Level Controls
Each level (Current Open, High, Low, Prior Open, High, Low, Close, OR High, OR Low) can be:
- Toggled on/off independently
- Assigned a custom color
- Given its own line style (Solid, Dashed, or Dotted)
- Adjusted for line width (1-5 pixels)
### Default Styling
- **Current Day**: Solid lines (Gold for Open, Green for High, Red for Low)
- **Prior Day**: Dashed lines (Steel Blue for Open, Dark Cyan for High, Crimson for Low, Slate Blue for Close)
- **Opening Range**: Dotted lines (Cyan for High, Tomato for Low)
This default styling provides clear visual distinction between level types while remaining professional and easy to read.
### Label Customization

Asia & London Session High/Low Description:
This indicator plots the highest and lowest points of the Asian and London trading sessions based on Eastern Time (ET).
Features:
Draws horizontal rays for session highs and lows
Automatically resets for each session
Perfect for I CT-style liquidity analysis , range breaks , and session-based trading setups
Clean chart : no labels or clutter, just the key session levels
Use it to identify liquidity zones , plan entries , and anticipate potential session raids in your trading strategy.
Liquidation Map [Alpha Extract]A sophisticated liquidity distribution visualization system that identifies potential liquidation zones through pivot-based detection and renders them as an interactive histogram with cumulative distance-to-liquidation curves. Utilizing multi-exchange volume aggregation and ATR-scaled pocket detection, this indicator delivers institutional-grade liquidity mapping with real-time histogram display showing relative concentration of long and short liquidation levels across configurable price ranges. The system's box-based rendering architecture combined with cumulative distribution overlays provides comprehensive visual assessment of asymmetric liquidity positioning for strategic trade planning.
🔶 Advanced Multi-Exchange Aggregation Framework
Implements intelligent ticker detection and multi-source volume aggregation across major exchanges including Binance, Bybit, KuCoin, OKX, and MEXC for accurate liquidity weight calculations. The system automatically identifies base currency (BTC, ETH, SOL) from chart ticker, retrieves volume data from matching perpetual contracts across multiple venues, and aggregates into composite volume metric for enhanced pocket weighting accuracy.
🔶 Pivot-Based Liquidation Pocket Detection
Features sophisticated swing point identification using configurable pivot width with ATR-scaled vertical zone construction for volatility-adaptive pocket sizing. The system detects pivot highs for short liquidation zones (placed above swing) and pivot lows for long liquidation zones (placed below swing), applying 200-period ATR with percentage multipliers to determine pocket heights that adjust to market volatility conditions.
🔶 Interactive Histogram Visualization Engine
Provides real-time box-based histogram rendering in indicator pane with configurable bin counts (up to 400 columns) and adjustable height, displaying liquidity concentration across fixed percentage range above and below current price. The system calculates bin sizes from view range, accumulates pocket weights into price bins, and renders vertical bars with gradient color intensity reflecting relative liquidity concentration at each price level.
🔶 Cumulative Distance Overlay System
Implements innovative cumulative distribution curves showing aggregate liquidity distance from current price for both long (left) and short (right) positions. The system calculates running totals of pocket weights from current price outward in both directions, normalizes against maximum span, and overlays line segments showing how much total liquidity exists at various distances, enabling instant assessment of liquidation cascade potential.
🔶 Dynamic Price Range Adaptation
Features fixed percentage-based view window that maintains consistent price range visualization across all timeframes and instruments, automatically centering histogram on current price with configurable +/- percentage bounds. The system recalculates histogram bins and pocket distributions on each bar close, ensuring visualization adapts to price movement while maintaining interpretable scale regardless of volatility regime.
🔶 Touch Detection and Weight Adjustment
Provides intelligent pocket state tracking that identifies when price trades through liquidation zones and applies configurable weight multipliers to touched pockets for historical context. The system monitors price interaction with pocket midpoints, marks pockets as "hit" when violated, and optionally increases their visual weight (default 5x) to emphasize historical liquidation levels while distinguishing from untouched future zones.
🔶 Gradient Intensity Color System
Implements sophisticated color gradient engine that modulates bar opacity from transparent to opaque based on relative liquidity concentration within each bin. The system normalizes bin values against maximum liquidity, applies color interpolation from faded to vivid hues, and distinguishes long liquidation zones (cyan) from short liquidation zones (yellow/gold) with current price column highlighted in red for instant orientation.
🔶 Performance-Optimized Rendering Architecture
Utilizes efficient box and line object management with dynamic allocation based on histogram configuration, implementing intelligent cleanup and reuse to maintain smooth performance. The system includes adaptive line budget calculations that adjust segment density for cumulative curves based on available object limits, ensuring consistent operation even with maximum histogram resolution settings.
🔶 Asymmetric Distribution Analysis
Calculates separate cumulative distributions for long and short liquidation zones split at current price, enabling identification of imbalanced liquidity positioning. The system normalizes distributions against respective maximums and overlays both curves on single histogram, allowing traders to instantly assess whether more liquidation risk exists above (shorts vulnerable) or below (longs vulnerable) current price levels.
🔶 Configurable Label and Scale System
Provides price axis labeling with adjustable frequency to reduce clutter while maintaining reference points, displaying price values at regular column intervals with configurable offset positioning. The system includes current price label showing exact value and percentile position within view range, offering both absolute price reference and relative positioning context for distribution interpretation.
🔶 Historical Pocket Persistence Framework
Maintains rolling window of liquidation pockets up to 3000 bars with automatic expiration management and optional preservation of touched zones for historical analysis. The system tracks pocket creation time, monitors age against lookback limits, and manages array cleanup to prevent memory overflow while retaining relevant historical liquidation levels for pattern recognition and support/resistance validation.
This indicator delivers sophisticated liquidity distribution analysis through histogram visualization and cumulative distance curves that reveal asymmetric positioning of potential liquidation levels. Unlike simple liquidation heatmaps that show absolute levels, the Liquidation Map's cumulative distribution overlays instantly communicate how much total liquidity exists at various distances from current price, enabling assessment of cascade potential. The system's multi-exchange volume aggregation, touch-weighted historical zones, and fixed-range visualization make it essential for traders seeking strategic positioning around institutional liquidity clusters in cryptocurrency futures markets. The histogram format enables instant identification of price levels where concentrated liquidations may trigger significant volatility or reversal events, while the asymmetric distribution curves reveal whether market structure favors upside or downside cascades.
Weekly Levels: High/Low/Mid/POCThis is a simple indicator that plots each week (up to 4 weeks) with the high,low, mid point and a customizable POC. Weeks can be toggled on and off and it has a developing level for the current week.
I find these levels valuable in day trading and thought automating them would be ideal.
PAE - Price Action Essential**PAE - Price Action Essential** indicator.
This system is engineered to provide high-fidelity market structure readings, blending moving average harmony with algorithmic volume analysis at critical turning points.
---
## 1. Indicator Philosophy
**PAE** operates under the **"Signal over Noise"** principle. Its goal is to declutter the chart of visual distractions, highlighting only the areas where true confluence exists between price action and institutional effort (volume).
---
## 2. Moving Average Dynamics & Action Zone
The system utilizes a hierarchy of four moving averages to segment market flow:
### A. The Action Zone (Short-Term)
This is generated via a dynamic shading between the **Fast MA (9)** and the **Base MA (20)**.
* **Configuration:** Allows the user to select the calculation type (EMA, SMA, WMA, HMA) for both averages simultaneously.
* **Fast MA Colors:**
* `#a5d6a7` (Soft Green) during ascending values.
* `#faa1a4` (Soft Red) during descending values.
* **Purpose:** The shaded area acts as a "value band." Pullbacks into this zone during defined trends often offer the highest probability entry opportunities.
### B. Structural MAs (Mid & Long-Term)
These averages are fixed to **SMA** type to maintain stability in trend analysis:
* **Medium SMA (40):** Uses vibrant colors (**#3179f5** Blue / **#ffee58** Yellow) to clearly mark the primary direction of the current swing.
* **Slow SMA (200):** Uses pastel tones (**#90bff9** / **#fff9c4**) and a dotted style to define the long-term institutional bias.
---
## 3. Pivot Analysis with Smart Volume
**PAE** identifies fractals (Highs and Lows) and automatically classifies them based on their **Relative Volume** compared to the previous 20 candles.
### Visual Classification by Color
To ensure rapid interpretation, labels are set to **Tiny** size, with color serving as the primary data indicator:
| Pivot Type | Color | Volume Condition | Interpretation |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **Strength (MAX)** | `#ff001e` (Bright Red) | `> 160%` of Avg | High-conviction resistance. |
| **Strength (MIN)** | `#0fa600` (Bright Green) | `> 160%` of Avg | High-conviction support. |
| **Base (MAX)** | `#f1adad` (Soft Rose) | Between `30%` - `160%` | Standard market structure. |
| **Base (MIN)** | `#bee7c0` (Soft Mint) | Between `30%` - `160%` | Standard market structure. |
| **Noise** | `#ffffff` (White 67% Transp.) | `< 30%` of Avg | Weak pivots or lack of interest. |
---
## 4. Contextual Information (Tooltips)
Every Pivot label is interactive. By hovering the cursor over the triangles, the trader obtains precise data:
* **Price:** Indicates the exact **Closing** value of the candle that triggered the pivot (MAX or Min).
* **Vol:** Displays the exact percentage of relative volume. For example, a value of **200%** confirms that the candle had double the average volume, validating the strength of that support or resistance level.
---
## 5. Recommended Configuration Parameters
* **Left/Right Bars (3):** The ideal balance between early detection and swing confirmation.
* **Strength Factor (1.60):** Filters for movements backed by professional intent.
* **Noise Factor (0.30):** Identifies exhaustion or lack of participation.
---
### Operational Summary
The **PAE** helps traders stop guessing. If the price reaches the **Action Zone** (shading) and coincides with a **Strength Pivot** (bright color), the probability of a reaction in favor of the trend is significantly high. It is a precision tool designed for traders seeking absolute clarity in their decision-making process.
deKoder | Whale Prints [WP]deKoder | Whale Prints | Large Trade Orderflow Detection
This open-source indicator is a clean, precision tool for revealing hidden large-volume activity directly on your chart. By scanning ultra-low timeframes while you view higher ones, it projects statistically significant volume spikes as intuitive markers giving you a clear window into institutional orderflow without visually overwhelming the price action.
Key Features & Strengths
True Intra-Bar Detection | Monitors lower timeframes down to 1-second bars, catching aggressive block trades and absorption that occur within a single higher-TF candle.
Accurate Trade Levels | Markers are placed at the actual hl2 price of the aggressive lower-TF bar, providing a far more accurate estimate of where the large trade executed than typical mid-candle approximations.
Multiple Trades Per Bar | If several significant volume spikes occur inside one higher-TF candle, all qualifying levels are displayed individually – offering greater granularity and context.
Adaptive Thresholding | Uses higher-TF volume standard deviation (stable baseline) intelligently scaled to the lower timeframe, reducing noise in quiet markets while remaining sensitive to genuine outliers.
Clean Visual Hierarchy | Three tiers (Small 🞉 / Medium ⏣ / Large 🞊) with dynamic symbol size, line thickness, transparency, and user-definable bullish/bearish coloring based on LTF candle direction.
How to Use It as an Orderflow Tool
Large volume spikes often mark the footprints of institutional players. This indicator helps you read those footprints in real time.
Small (🞉) | Moderate excess volume: early interest, probing, or building positions.
Medium (⏣) | Strong spike: increasing conviction, potential momentum shift.
Large (🞊) | Extreme outlier: frequently climactic volume signalling exhaustion or major absorption.
Why Price Often Reverses at These Levels
Large players frequently place limit orders in areas rich with liquidity – commonly just beyond recent highs/lows where retail stop-losses cluster. When price sweeps those zones:
Stop hunts trigger a cascade of forced exits, creating liquidity for larger participants to fill their limit orders.
Breakout traders who entered on the move are trapped offside and become forced buyers/sellers when price reverses.
Institutions use this liquidity to execute large orders at favorable prices with minimal immediate market impact.
The result is aggressive volume at the extreme, followed by reversal as smart money finishes filling and price returns toward fair value. Clusters of medium/large markers at swing points are classic signs of this dynamic.
Practical Analysis Tips
Reversals/Absorption | Clusters of large markers at swing highs/lows (especially opposing-color spikes) signal potential turns – buyers or sellers stepping in aggressively.
Level Defense | Trades piling up at key support/resistance suggest institutions protecting or building positions.
Trapped Traders | Large spikes beyond range pivots followed by reversal back into the range often highlight trapped breakout traders who add fuel to a move when they are forced to liquidate their positions.
Use Offset (-3 to +3) to shift markers away from current price for clearer viewing.
Pro tip: Zoom into the lower TF occasionally to see how these projected levels align exactly with aggressive candles.
Recommended Pairings
This is designed as a pure orderflow overlay to be layered with your existing setup:
Support & Resistance (horizontals, pivots, Volume Profile POC/VAH/VAL)
Market Structure tools (swing points, order blocks, fair value gaps)
Trend filters (EMAs, SuperTrend, higher-TF bias)
Momentum oscillators for timing confluence
Best Suited For
Scalping & day trading (1–15 min charts with 5–30S lower TF)
Swing trading entries (1H–4H charts with 1–5 min lower TF)
High-liquidity markets: crypto perpetuals, forex majors, volatile stocks
Add this indicator to start seeing the hidden aggression driving price and expose the hidden edges beyond the noise.

Quarter Point Autopilot v2.0.0Hello traders,
I am pleased to release the Quarter Point Autopilot . This is a specialized structural framework designed to impose mathematical order on price action by synthesizing major market cycles with fractal geometric subdivisions.
Defining accurate Support and Resistance often presents a dilemma: rely on subjective, manually drawn lines that vary from trader to trader, or clutter charts with lagging moving averages. The Quarter Point Autopilot solves this by quantifying "Algorithmic Geometry." It eliminates subjectivity by projecting a universal grid based on the mathematical quarter-points that institutional algorithms utilize to execute orders.
📐 The Concept: Algorithmic Geometry
To the untrained eye, price movement can appear chaotic or random. However, professional analysis reveals that markets move in measured "Steps." Large institutions do not place orders at random numbers; they utilize specific mathematical fractions of a Major Cycle to manage liquidity.
This indicator is specifically engineered to visualize this hidden framework. By defining a "Major Cycle" (Point A and Point B), the script calculates the entire universe of the chart. It mathematically subdivides the range into Halves, Quarters, Eighths, and Sixteenths, highlighting the precise levels where price creates "Structure" and where algorithmic reactions are most likely to occur.
⚙️ The Autopilot Logic: Infinite Scroll
In previous iterations of quarter-theory tools, traders were forced to manually redraw grids as price expanded into new territories.
This version introduces the "Autopilot" engine ( current_base logic ). The script dynamically detects which "Block" price is currently trading within and automatically projects the grid forward and backward in real-time. Whether price rallies 1,000 points or drops 500, the mathematical subdivisions snap to the correct integer block immediately, ensuring you never trade without context.
📊 Fractal Hierarchy
Not all levels are created equal. The indicator uses a visual hierarchy to help you distinguish the strength of a level at a glance:
Major Cycle: The "Hard Deck" boundaries of the range (0% / 100%).
Half-Major: The Equilibrium of the cycle (50%).
Large Quarters: The standard deviation points (25% / 75%).
Mid & Small Quarters: The granular detail (Eighths and Sixteenths) for precision entries.
User Guide:
Simply input two "Major Cycle Points" (a significant High and Low) in the settings. The script calculates the "Step Size" and handles the rest, projecting the grid relative to current price action.
Settings Include:
Calculation Group: Set your Point A and Point B to define the grid size.
Visual Group: Toggle the upper/lower buffers and customize the lookback/lookforward lengths to keep your chart clean.
Label Group: Choose to see Level Names, Prices, or both.
Quantum Reversal Detector [JOAT]
Quantum Reversal Detector - Multi-Factor Reversal Probability Analysis
Introduction and Purpose
Quantum Reversal Detector is an open-source overlay indicator that combines multiple reversal detection methods into a unified probability-based framework. The core problem this indicator addresses is the unreliability of single-factor reversal signals. A price touching support means nothing without momentum confirmation; an RSI oversold reading means nothing without price structure context.
This indicator solves that by requiring multiple independent factors to align before generating reversal signals, then expressing the result as a probability score rather than a binary signal.
Why These Components Work Together
The indicator combines five analytical approaches, each addressing a different aspect of reversal detection:
1. RSI Extremes - Identifies momentum exhaustion (overbought/oversold)
2. MACD Crossovers - Confirms momentum direction change
3. Support/Resistance Proximity - Ensures price is at a significant level
4. Multi-Depth Momentum - Analyzes momentum across multiple timeframes
5. Statistical Probability - Quantifies reversal likelihood using Bayesian updating
These components are not randomly combined. Each filter catches reversals that others miss:
RSI catches momentum exhaustion but misses structural reversals
MACD catches momentum shifts but lags price action
S/R proximity catches structural levels but ignores momentum
Multi-depth momentum catches divergences across timeframes
Probability scoring combines all factors into actionable confidence levels
How the Detection System Works
Step 1: Pattern Detection
The indicator first identifies potential reversal conditions:
// Check if price is at support/resistance
float lowestLow = ta.lowest(low, period)
float highestHigh = ta.highest(high, period)
bool atSupport = low <= lowestLow * 1.002
bool atResistance = high >= highestHigh * 0.998
// Check RSI conditions
float rsi = ta.rsi(close, 14)
bool oversold = rsi < 30
bool overbought = rsi > 70
// Check MACD crossover
float macd = ta.ema(close, 12) - ta.ema(close, 26)
float signal = ta.ema(macd, 9)
bool macdBullish = ta.crossover(macd, signal)
bool macdBearish = ta.crossunder(macd, signal)
// Combine for reversal detection
if atSupport and oversold and macdBullish
bullishReversal := true
Step 2: Multi-Depth Momentum Analysis
The indicator calculates momentum across multiple periods to detect divergences:
calculateQuantumMomentum(series float price, simple int period, simple int depth) =>
float totalMomentum = 0.0
for i = 0 to depth - 1
int currentPeriod = period * (i + 1)
float momentum = ta.roc(price, currentPeriod)
totalMomentum += momentum
totalMomentum / depth
This creates a composite momentum reading that smooths out noise while preserving genuine momentum shifts.
Step 3: Bayesian Probability Calculation
The indicator uses Bayesian updating to calculate reversal probability:
bayesianProbability(series float priorProb, series float likelihood, series float evidence) =>
float posterior = evidence > 0 ? (likelihood * priorProb) / evidence : priorProb
math.min(math.max(posterior, 0.0), 1.0)
The prior probability starts at 50% and updates based on:
RSI extreme readings increase likelihood
MACD crossovers increase likelihood
S/R proximity increases likelihood
Momentum divergence increases likelihood
Step 4: Confidence Intervals
Using Monte Carlo simulation concepts, the indicator estimates price distribution:
monteCarloSimulation(series float price, series float volatility, simple int iterations) =>
float sumPrice = 0.0
float sumSqDiff = 0.0
for i = 0 to iterations - 1
float randomFactor = (i % 10 - 5) / 10.0
float simulatedPrice = price + volatility * randomFactor
sumPrice += simulatedPrice
float avgPrice = sumPrice / iterations
// Calculate standard deviation for confidence intervals
This provides 95% and 99% confidence bands around the current price.
Signal Classification
Signals are classified by confirmation level:
Confirmed Reversal : Pattern detected for N consecutive bars (default 3)
High Probability : Confirmed + Bayesian probability > 70%
Ultra High Probability : High probability + PDF above average
Dashboard Information
The dashboard displays:
Bayesian Probability - Updated reversal probability (0-100%)
Quantum Momentum - Multi-depth momentum average
RSI - Current RSI value with overbought/oversold status
Volatility - Current ATR as percentage of price
Reversal Signal - BULLISH, BEARISH, or NONE
Divergence - Momentum divergence detection
MACD - Current MACD histogram value
S/R Zone - AT SUPPORT, AT RESISTANCE, or NEUTRAL
95% Confidence - Price range with 95% probability
Bull/Bear Targets - ATR-based reversal targets
Visual Elements
Quantum Bands - ATR-based upper and lower channels
Probability Field - Circle layers showing probability distribution
Confidence Bands - 95% and 99% confidence interval circles
Reversal Labels - REV markers at confirmed reversals
High Probability Markers - Star diamonds at high probability setups
Reversal Zones - Boxes around confirmed reversal areas
Divergence Markers - Triangles at momentum divergences
How to Use This Indicator
For Reversal Trading:
1. Wait for Bayesian Probability to exceed 70%
2. Confirm price is at S/R zone (dashboard shows AT SUPPORT or AT RESISTANCE)
3. Check that RSI is in extreme territory (oversold for longs, overbought for shorts)
4. Enter when REV label appears with high probability marker
For Risk Management:
1. Use the 95% confidence band as a stop-loss reference
2. Use Bull/Bear Targets for take-profit levels
3. Higher probability readings warrant larger position sizes
For Filtering False Signals:
1. Increase Confirmation Bars to require more consecutive signals
2. Only trade when probability exceeds 70%
3. Require divergence confirmation for highest conviction
Input Parameters
Reversal Period (21) - Lookback for S/R and momentum calculations

Volume-Confirmed Trend Thrust IndicatorOVERVIEW
This indicator combines trend strength, momentum & volume analysis to generate high-conviction buy and sell signals. It is based on the "Volume Confirmation for a Trend System" (VCTS) by Buff Pelz Dormeier (TASC August 2024), which I have taken the liberty of 'buffing up' (heh!) by swapping out original VPCI component with the ATR-aware Net Accumulation Flow (NAF) indicator derived from Markos Katsanos' VPN indicator (TASC April 2021).
The result is a system that only triggers buy signals when three independent conditions align:
• A strong trend exists (ADX)
• Momentum is bullish (TTI)
• Institutional accumulation is detected (NAF)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
COMPONENTS
█ ADX (Average Directional Index)
Measures trend strength regardless of direction. A reading above 30 indicates a strong trend worth trading. This filter prevents signals during choppy, sideways markets.
█ TTI (Trend Thrust Indicator)
Dormeier's volume-weighted MACD variant that provides momentum direction. Unlike standard MACD, TTI uses Volume-Weighted Moving Averages (VWMA) and applies a volume multiplier that amplifies signals when volume confirms price movement. When TTI crosses above its signal line, momentum is considered bullish.
█ NAF (Net Accumulation Flow)
The key enhancement - in my humble opinion - over the original VCTS. NAF classifies each bar's volume as:
• Accumulation: Price moved UP more than 10% of ATR
• Distribution: Price moved DOWN more than 10% of ATR
• Neutral: Price movement too small to be meaningful (filtered as noise)
NAF then calculates the net flow (Accumulation Volume - Distribution Volume) over a 30-bar lookback period, normalized and smoothed. This provides a cleaner read on whether institutions are accumulating or distributing.
Perceived benefits of NAF:
• ATR-based noise filtering eliminates false readings from small price movements
• Rolling 30-bar accumulation captures sustained institutional activity
• Empirically calibrated thresholds based on 717 stocks / 360,000 observations
• 3-period EMA smoothing reduces whipsaws
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SIGNAL LOGIC
🟢 BUY SIGNAL
All three conditions must be true simultaneously:
1. ADX > 30 (strong trend)
2. TTI > Signal Line (bullish momentum)
3. NAF > 16 (accumulation)
Signals fire on the first bar where all conditions align, preventing repeated signals during sustained bullish periods.
🔴 SELL SIGNAL
Exit when volume flow turns negative:
• NAF < -9 (below neutral zone, indicating distribution).
This indicator retains Dormeier's asymmetric approach (strict entry, quick exit) to help protect profits when institutional support fades.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
NAF THRESHOLD REFERENCE
Based on proprietary empirical calibration (717 stocks, 360K observations):
>= +35 │ Strong Accumulation (P95, ~5% of days)
>= +28 │ Solid Accumulation (P90, ~10% of days)
>= +16 │ Moderate Accumulation (P75) ← Default Buy Threshold
-9 to +16 │ Neutral Zone (~50% of days)
<= -9 │ Below Neutral ← Default Sell Threshold
<= -22 │ Solid Distribution (P10)
<= -29 │ Strong Distribution (P5)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SETTINGS
Setting for all 3 variables (ADX, TTI & NAF), alerts and visual conditional formatting are configurable.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
USAGE TIPS
1. Works best on daily timeframe for swing trading
2. More effective on liquid stocks where volume data is meaningful
3. Consider using NAF threshold of 28 (P90) for higher conviction entries
5. Combine with price action analysis (support/resistance, RS, chart patterns)

Breakout LevelsBreakout Levels - User Guide
Overview
The Breakout Levels indicator automatically detects and displays significant breakout candles across multiple timeframes. A breakout occurs when price makes a strong, decisive move - identified by candles with unusually large bodies relative to average volatility.
These breakout levels often act as future support/resistance zones, making them valuable reference points for trading decisions.
What is a Breakout?
A breakout is detected when a candle's body size (the distance between open and close) is significantly larger than normal. By default, the script looks for candles that are 2x the ATR (Average True Range) or larger.
Example:
If the 14-period ATR is $5, a candle with a $10+ body would qualify as a breakout
These represent strong, committed moves by the market
The script marks the high of bullish breakouts and the low of bearish breakouts
Settings Guide
Timeframes
Toggle which timeframes to monitor for breakouts:
Show Daily Breakouts - Green/Red levels from daily chart breakouts
Show 4H Breakouts - 4-hour timeframe breakouts
Show 1H Breakouts - 1-hour timeframe breakouts
Show 15M Breakouts - 15-minute timeframe breakouts
Tip: When running on a 15-minute chart, you can see breakouts from all higher timeframes simultaneously.
Lookback (How Far Back to Display)
Controls how many bars back to show levels for each timeframe:
TimeframeDefaultWhat it Means15M50 bars~12.5 hours of breakout history1H200 bars~8 days of breakout history4H250 bars~42 days of breakout historyDaily300 bars~300 days (nearly 1 year)

How to Use This Indicator
1. Identify Key Breakout Zones
Breakout levels often become magnets where price returns later:
Former resistance (where price broke up) becomes future support
Former support (where price broke down) becomes future resistance
2. Look for Confluence
When multiple timeframe breakouts cluster near the same price:
15M + 1H + 4H breakouts all near $150 = strong level
More confluence = more significant level
3. Watch for Retests
After a breakout, price often returns to test that level:
Bullish breakout retest from above = potential long entry
Bearish breakout retest from below = potential short entry
4. Combine with Other Analysis
Use breakout levels alongside:
Your own support/resistance analysis
Volume profiles
Fibonacci levels
Candlestick patterns at these levels
Practical Examples
Example 1: Clean Breakout and Retest
Daily candle closes up with a huge body (2.5x ATR)
Green line drawn at the high of that candle
Price pulls back 3 days later and bounces exactly off that green line
Trade opportunity: Long entry at the retest with stop below
Example 2: Failed Breakout
4H bearish breakout draws a red line at the low
Price immediately reverses back above the level
Signal: The breakout was false - consider this a stop hunt zone
Example 3: Multi-Timeframe Confluence
Daily breakout at $100
4H breakout at $100.50
1H breakout at $99.80
Strong cluster zone: $99.80-$100.50 becomes a major decision point
Best Practices
DO:
✅ Start with default settings (2.0x ATR, default lookbacks)
✅ Use on a 15-minute chart to see all timeframes
✅ Look for price reactions at these levels before trading
✅ Combine with volume - breakouts with high volume are more reliable
✅ Turn off labels when chart gets too busy
DON'T:
❌ Treat every line as guaranteed support/resistance
❌ Set breakout multiplier too low (<1.5) - creates noise
❌ Ignore the context - check what's happening in the broader market
❌ Trade blindly at these levels without confirmation
Troubleshooting
"Too many lines on my chart"
Reduce the lookback settings
Turn off some timeframes (maybe just show Daily + 4H)
Increase the breakout multiplier to 2.5 or 3.0
"Not showing any levels"
Lower the breakout multiplier to 1.5
Increase lookback settings
Check that at least one timeframe toggle is ON
Verify the market had actual volatility during the period
"Labels are cluttering the chart"
Turn off "Show Labels" in settings
Lines will remain, labels disappear
Technical Notes
ATR Period: 14 (industry standard, not adjustable in this version)
Max Lines: 500 (Pine Script limitation)
Duplicate Filter: Levels within 0.3% of ATR are considered duplicates and filtered
Chart Type: Works on any chart timeframe, optimized for 15-minute
Asset Type: Works on stocks, forex, crypto, futures
Summary
The Breakout Levels indicator gives you a systematic way to identify where strong, committed market moves occurred. These levels often act as future decision points. Use them as reference zones to watch for price reactions, not as automatic trade signals.
Quick Start:
Add indicator to a 15-minute chart
Leave default settings (2.0x ATR)
Watch how price interacts with the levels over the next few days
Adjust sensitivity based on your observations

VRVP Clone + Multi-POC -- PerroGordoVRVP Clone + Multi-POC
Overview
VRVP Clone + Multi-POC replicates TradingView's native Visible Range Volume Profile with several practical enhancements. The indicator displays volume distribution across price levels for the visible chart range, which is useful for identifying high-volume nodes, support/resistance zones, and areas of price acceptance.
The main differentiator from the built-in VRVP is support for multiple Point of Control (POC) lines with an intelligent peak detection algorithm. Instead of just showing the single highest-volume level, you can identify distinct volume clusters across different price zones.
Features
Dynamic Visible Range
Recalculates automatically on scroll or zoom
Analyzes only visible bars
Profile width scales proportionally to view
Multiple POC Detection (1-8 levels)
Volume Nodes Mode: Peak detection algorithm finds local volume maxima across distinct price clusters
Highest Rows Mode: Traditional approach - top N rows by raw volume
Configurable minimum separation between nodes to prevent bunching
Individual colors for each POC level
Volume Display Modes
Up/Down: Split bars showing buy vs. sell volume with black outlines for visual separation
Total: Single bar colored by dominant direction
Delta: Net volume (buy minus sell)
Delta Intensity: Gradient coloring indicating buyer/seller dominance strength per row
Value Area
Configurable percentage (default 70%)
VAH and VAL lines with customizable styles
Separate colors for volume inside vs. outside the Value Area
Positioning Options
Left or Right placement
Adjustable profile width as percentage of visible range
Row configuration via "Number of Rows" or "Ticks Per Row"
Additional Features
Statistics table showing bars analyzed, total volume, up/down percentages, price vs POC
POC price labels on chart
Line style options (Solid, Dashed, Dotted)
+++++
How It Works
Volume from each bar is distributed across price rows based on the bar's high-low range. The allocation is proportional - if a bar spans 3 rows with 60% overlap on one row, that row receives 60% of the bar's volume.
Volume Nodes Mode identifies local peaks in the distribution (rows where volume exceeds both neighbors), then selects the highest peaks while enforcing minimum separation. This surfaces distinct support/resistance clusters rather than stacking all POC lines in a single high-volume area.

+++++
Applications
Support/Resistance Identification
High-volume nodes tend to act as price magnets. Multiple POCs reveal layered S/R zones that aren't visible with a single POC.
Fair Value Reference
The Value Area represents where 70% of volume traded. Price tends to revert to this zone.
Volume Gap Analysis
Low-volume areas between POCs indicate prices that were rejected quickly - potential breakout or breakdown levels.
Market Structure
Multiple POCs across price levels show where the market has found acceptance, useful for distinguishing range-bound conditions from trending moves.
+++++
Practical Notes
Volume Nodes mode with 3-5 POCs works well for identifying distinct S/R clusters
Higher row counts give more granular analysis on lower timeframes
Delta Intensity mode quickly shows buyer/seller dominance at each level without the visual noise of split bars
If POCs are too clustered, increase Min Node Separation; if too spread out, decrease it or set to 0 for auto
The stats table vs POC comparison is useful for quick directional bias assessment
+++++
Requirements
Any instrument with volume data
Works well on futures, forex, and liquid equities

ICT Big Round Numbers (00, 20, 50, 80)This indicator plots "Big Round Numbers", a term for "psychological" or "institutional" forex price levels that occur at 00, 20, 50, & 80 levels in FX markets. The concept is from the work of Michael J. Huddleston aka The Inner Circle Trader ( ICT ). www.youtube.com
Previous HLC Single ChoiceThis indicator allows traders to visualize the High, Low, and Close (HLC) levels of a previous timeframe directly on their current chart. By plotting these key levels from a higher timeframe, traders can identify significant support and resistance zones, potential breakout levels, and the overall market context without needing to switch back and forth between different chart intervals.
How it Works
The script utilizes the request.security() function to fetch the High, Low, and Close data from the previous completed bar of a user-selected timeframe.
Unlike static multi-timeframe indicators that might clutter the chart with too many lines, this script is designed for simplicity and flexibility. It uses the input.timeframe functionality, allowing you to select any standard or custom timeframe available on TradingView (e.g., 4-hour, Daily, Weekly, 3-Month, 12-Month) via a simple dropdown menu.
Once a timeframe is selected, the indicator plots three distinct lines:
Green Line: The High of the previous timeframe.
Red Line: The Low of the previous timeframe.
Orange Line: The Close of the previous timeframe.
Usage Examples
These levels often act as dynamic support and resistance.
Breakouts: A move above the previous timeframe's High can signal bullish strength.
Breakdowns: A drop below the previous timeframe's Low can signal bearish weakness.
Ranges: The space between the High and Low often defines the trading range for the current session.
