XAUUSD Best Strategy - Buy/Sell SignalsThe best strategy to trade XAUUSD (gold) often depends on your trading style and market conditions, but several high-probability approaches are recommended by top traders and industry experts for both scalping and swing trading.
Trend-Following Using EMAs
Use a combination of 9-period and 21-period Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) on the 5-minute or 15-minute chart.
Enter long when the 9 EMA crosses above the 21 EMA, especially when overall trend aligns with higher timeframes (such as H1 or H4).
Confirm entries with an RSI value above 50 for buys (or below 50 for sells).
Set stop loss just below the latest swing low for long positions.
Ideal for fast-moving, trending sessions (London and New York overlap).

Economic Seasons [Daveatt]Ever wondered what season your economy is in?
Just like Mother Nature has her four seasons, the economy cycles through its own seasons! This indicator helps you visualize where we are in the economic cycle by tracking two key metrics:
📊 What We're Tracking:
1. Interest Rates (USIRYY) - The yearly change in interest rates
2. Inflation Rate (USINTR) - The rate at which prices are rising
The magic happens when we normalize these values (fancy math that makes the numbers play nice together) and compare them to their recent averages. We use a lookback period to calculate the standard deviation and determine if we're seeing higher or lower than normal readings.
🔄 The Four Economic Seasons & Investment Strategy:
1. 🌸 Goldilocks (↑Growth, ↓Inflation)
"Not too hot, not too cold" - The economy is growing steadily without overheating.
BEST TIME TO: Buy growth stocks, technology, consumer discretionary
WHY: Companies can grow earnings in this ideal environment of low rates and stable prices
2. 🌞 Reflation (↑Growth, ↑Inflation)
"Party time... but watch your wallet!" - The economy is heating up.
BEST TIME TO: Buy commodities, banking stocks, real estate
WHY: These sectors thrive when inflation rises alongside growth
3. 🌡️ Inflation (↓Growth, ↑Inflation)
"Ouch, my purchasing power!" - Growth slows while prices keep rising.
BEST TIME TO: Rotate into value stocks, consumer staples, healthcare
WHY: These defensive sectors maintain pricing power during inflationary periods
4. ❄️ Deflation (↓Growth, ↓Inflation)
"Winter is here" - Both growth and inflation are falling.
BEST TIME TO: Focus on quality bonds, cash positions, and dividend aristocrats
WHY: Capital preservation becomes key; high-quality fixed income provides safety
🎯 Strategic Trading Points:
- BUY AGGRESSIVELY: During late Deflation/early Goldilocks (the spring thaw)
- HOLD & ACCUMULATE: Throughout Goldilocks and early Reflation
- START TAKING PROFITS: During late Reflation/early Inflation
- DEFENSIVE POSITIONING: Throughout Inflation and Deflation
⚠️ Warning Signs to Watch:
- Goldilocks → Reflation: Time to reduce growth stock exposure
- Reflation → Inflation: Begin rotating into defensive sectors
- Inflation → Deflation: Quality becomes crucial
- Deflation → Goldilocks: Start building new positions
The blue dot shows you where we are right now in this cycle.
The red arrows in the middle remind us that this is a continuous cycle - one season flows into the next, just like in nature!
💡 Pro Tip: The transitions between seasons often provide the best opportunities - but also the highest risks. Use additional indicators and fundamental analysis to confirm these shifts.
Remember: Just like you wouldn't wear a winter coat in summer, you shouldn't use a Goldilocks strategy during Inflation! Time your trades with the seasons. 🎯
Happy Trading! 📈
SuperTrade ST1 StrategyOverview
The SuperTrade ST1 Strategy is a long-only trend-following strategy that combines a Supertrend indicator with a 200-period EMA filter to isolate high-probability bullish trade setups. It is designed to operate in trending markets, using volatility-based exits with a strict 1:4 Risk-to-Reward (R:R) ratio, meaning that each trade targets a profit 4× the size of its predefined risk.
This strategy is ideal for traders looking to align with medium- to long-term trends, while maintaining disciplined risk control and minimal trade frequency.
How It Works
This strategy leverages three key components:
Supertrend Indicator
A trend-following indicator based on Average True Range (ATR).
Identifies bullish/bearish trend direction by plotting a trailing stop line that moves with price volatility.
200-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) Filter
Trades are only taken when the price is above the EMA, ensuring participation only during confirmed uptrends.
Helps filter out counter-trend entries during market pullbacks or ranges.
ATR-Based Stop Loss and Take Profit
Each trade uses the ATR to calculate volatility-adjusted exit levels.
Stop Loss: 1× ATR below entry.
Take Profit: 4× ATR above entry (1:4 R:R).
This asymmetry ensures that even with a lower win rate, the strategy can remain profitable.
Entry Conditions
A long trade is triggered when:
Supertrend flips from bearish to bullish (trend reversal).
Price closes above the Supertrend line.
Price is above the 200 EMA (bullish market bias).
Exit Logic
Once a long position is entered:
Stop loss is set 1 ATR below entry.
Take profit is set 4 ATR above entry.
The strategy automatically exits the position on either target.
Backtest Settings
This strategy is configured for realistic backtesting, including:
$10,000 account size
2% equity risk per trade
0.1% commission
1 tick slippage
These settings aim to simulate real-world conditions and avoid overly optimistic results.
How to Use
Apply the script to any timeframe, though higher timeframes (1H, 4H, Daily) often yield more reliable signals.
Works best in clearly trending markets (especially in crypto, stocks, indices).
Can be paired with alerts for live trading or analysis.
Important Notes
This version is long-only by design. No short positions are executed.
Ideal for swing traders or position traders seeking asymmetric returns.
Users can modify the ATR period, Supertrend factor, or EMA filter length based on asset behavior.
Market Regime IndexThe Market Regime Index is a top-down macro regime nowcasting tool that offers a consolidated view of the market’s risk appetite. It tracks 32 of the world’s most influential markets across asset classes to determine investor sentiment by applying trend-following signals to each independent asset. It features adjustable parameters and a built-in alert system that notifies investors when conditions transition between Risk-On and Risk-Off regimes. The selected markets are grouped into equities (7), fixed income (9), currencies (7), commodities (5), and derivatives (4):
Equities = S&P 500 E-mini Index Futures, Nasdaq-100 E-mini Index Futures, Russell 2000 E-mini Index Futures, STOXX Europe 600 Index Futures, Nikkei 225 Index Futures, MSCI Emerging Markets Index Futures, and S&P 500 High Beta (SPHB)/Low Beta (SPLV) Ratio.
Fixed Income = US 10Y Treasury Yield, US 2Y Treasury Yield, US 10Y-02Y Yield Spread, German 10Y Bund Yield, UK 10Y Gilt Yield, US 10Y Breakeven Inflation Rate, US 10Y TIPS Yield, US High Yield Option-Adjusted Spread, and US Corporate Option-Adjusted Spread.
Currencies = US Dollar Index (DXY), Australian Dollar/US Dollar, Euro/US Dollar, Chinese Yuan/US Dollar, Pound Sterling/US Dollar, Japanese Yen/US Dollar, and Bitcoin/US Dollar.
Commodities = ICE Brent Crude Oil Futures, COMEX Gold Futures, COMEX Silver Futures, COMEX Copper Futures, and S&P Goldman Sachs Commodity Index (GSCI) Futures.
Derivatives = CBOE S&P 500 Volatility Index (VIX), ICE US Bond Market Volatility Index (MOVE), CBOE 3M Implied Correlation Index, and CBOE VIX Volatility Index (VVIX)/VIX.
All assets are directionally aligned with their historical correlation to the S&P 500. Each asset contributes equally based on its individual bullish or bearish signal. The overall market regime is calculated as the difference between the number of Risk-On and Risk-Off signals divided by the total number of assets, displayed as the percentage of markets confirming each regime. Green indicates Risk-On and occurs when the number of Risk-On signals exceeds Risk-Off signals, while red indicates Risk-Off and occurs when the number of Risk-Off signals exceeds Risk-On signals.
Bullish Signal = (Fast MA – Slow MA) > (ATR × ATR Margin)
Bearish Signal = (Fast MA – Slow MA) < –(ATR × ATR Margin)
Market Regime = (Risk-On signals – Risk-Off signals) ÷ Total assets
This indicator is designed with flexibility in mind, allowing users to include or exclude individual assets that contribute to the market regime and adjust the input parameters used for trend signal detection. These parameters apply to each independent asset, and the overall regime signal is smoothed by the signal length to reduce noise and enhance reliability. Investors can position according to the prevailing market regime by selecting factors that have historically outperformed under each regime environment to minimise downside risk and maximise upside potential:
Risk-On Equity Factors = High Beta > Cyclicals > Low Volatility > Defensives.
Risk-Off Equity Factors = Defensives > Low Volatility > Cyclicals > High Beta.
Risk-On Fixed Income Factors = High Yield > Investment Grade > Treasuries.
Risk-Off Fixed Income Factors = Treasuries > Investment Grade > High Yield.
Risk-On Commodity Factors = Industrial Metals > Energy > Agriculture > Gold.
Risk-Off Commodity Factors = Gold > Agriculture > Energy > Industrial Metals.
Risk-On Currency Factors = Cryptocurrencies > Foreign Currencies > US Dollar.
Risk-Off Currency Factors = US Dollar > Foreign Currencies > Cryptocurrencies.
In summary, the Market Regime Index is a comprehensive macro risk-management tool that identifies the current market regime and helps investors align portfolio risk with the market’s underlying risk appetite. Its intuitive, color-coded design makes it an indispensable resource for investors seeking to navigate shifting market conditions and enhance risk-adjusted performance by selecting factors that have historically outperformed. While it has proven historically valuable, asset-specific characteristics and correlations evolve over time as market dynamics change.
The Silver Lining – GSR🍯 This tool converts the Gold/Silver Ratio (GSR) into a precision timing lens for short-term traders operating inside digital silver markets. It reveals structural dominance, trend exhaustion, and regime inflection by comparing the GSR to its smoothed baseline and historical percentile rhythm. On high timeframes (1D+), it reflects macroeconomic sentiment shifts 📈.
🧐 The lower the timeframe, the higher the alpha; the 15m and 1h charts are where you will the hidden pots of gold. For LTF traders, it becomes a hyper-responsive bias filter — especially when paired with volatility-based confirmation systems like SUPeR TReND 2.718, as shown.
🧠 The core logic compares the GSR (gold ÷ silver) against a user-defined moving average (VWMA or EMA). A color-coded fill shifts based on direction: amber when gold leads, teal when silver gains strength. Percentile bands (20th, 50th, 80th) map structural zones — helping traders anchor trades based on confluence, not hype.
📊 In the example chart, four theoretical long trades are shown on the 1h chart, manually drawn on the 15m timeframe. Each begins when the GSR reverses from the 80th percentile or breaks below its MA. The trades occur precisely as silver tested support, with confirmation from SUPeR TReND’s trend shift. Although idealized, these aren’t guesses — they are compression-to-expansion sequences backed by macro relative strength flow. Several yielded gains exceeding 4%.
🏆 Best-case long trades occur when GSR rotates down through the 50th percentile and silver catches a reactive bid. Shorts appear when GSR rises through the upper percentile band while silver fails to hold key intraday levels. The percentile bands function like behavioral tiers:
🥈 Below 20th = Silver Dominance
⚠️ Around 50th = Crossover Area
🥇 Above 80th = Gold Dominance
🥈 Why silver? It’s faster, more emotional, and more manipulated than gold — which paradoxically makes it more tradable on low timeframes. Its range-bound nature is ideal for rinse-and-repeat systems. Because we trade the derivative (XAGUSD), there’s no friction or delivery constraint — just price action, clean and liquid.
⚖️ The underlying strategy isn’t just technical; it’s alchemical. The system begins with short-term trading in digital silver and funnels gains into physical gold — converting volatility into wealth. Over time, this establishes a perpetual motion model: when profits allow, trade silver, extract value, cash out and convert into gold. The account stays active, and the hedge keeps growing.
🔁 The Silver Lining isn’t a signal engine. It’s a structural overlay. It tells you when the market’s invisible bias is shifting — so your tactics stay aligned with macro rhythm.
🌊 Silver moves fast. Gold moves first. The Silver Lining helps you bridge that gap — with clarity, confluence, and edge.
Multi-Band Comparison (Uptrend)Multi-Band Comparison
Overview:
The Multi-Band Comparison indicator is engineered to reveal critical levels of support and resistance in strong uptrends. In a healthy upward market, the price action will adhere closely to the 95th percentile line (the Upper Quantile Band), effectively “riding” it. This indicator combines a modified Bollinger Band (set at one standard deviation), quantile analysis (95% and 5% levels), and power‑law math to display a dynamic picture of market structure—highlighting a “golden channel” and robust support areas.
Key Components & Calculations:
The Golden Channel: Upper Bollinger Band & Upper Std Dev Band of the Upper Quantile
Upper Bollinger Band:
Calculation:
boll_upper=SMA(close,length)+(boll_mult×stdev)
boll_upper=SMA(close,length)+(boll_mult×stdev) Here, the 20-period SMA is used along with one standard deviation of the close, where the multiplier (boll_mult) is 1.0.
Role in an Uptrend:
In a healthy uptrend, price rides near the 95th percentile line. When price crosses above this Upper Bollinger Band, it confirms strong bullish momentum.
Upper Std Dev Band of the Upper Quantile (95th Percentile) Band:
Calculation:
quant_upper_std_up=quant_upper+stdev
quant_upper_std_up=quant_upper+stdev The Upper Quantile Band, quant_upperquant_upper, is calculated as the 95th percentile of recent price data. Adding one standard deviation creates an extension that accounts for normal volatility around this extreme level.
The Golden Channel:
When the price crosses above the Upper Bollinger Band, the Upper Std Dev Band of the Upper Quantile immediately shifts to gold (yellow) and remains gold until price falls below the Bollinger level. Together, these two lines form the “golden channel”—a visual hallmark of a healthy uptrend where the price reliably hugs the 95th percentile level.
Upper Power‑Law Band
Calculation:
The Upper Power‑Law Band is derived in two steps:
Determine the Extreme Return Factor:
power_upper=Percentile(returns,95%)
power_upper=Percentile(returns,95%) where returns are computed as:
returns=closeclose −1.
returns=close close−1.
Scale the Current Price:
power_upper_band=close×(1+power_upper)
power_upper_band=close×(1+power_upper)
Rationale and Correlation:
By focusing on the upper 5% of returns (reflecting “fat tails”), the Upper Power‑Law Band captures extreme but statistically expected movements. In an uptrend, its value often converges with the Upper Std Dev Band of the Upper Quantile because both measures reflect heightened volatility and extreme price levels. When the Upper Power‑Law Band exceeds the Upper Std Dev Band, it can signal a temporary overextension.
Upper Quantile Band (95% Percentile)
Calculation:
quant_upper=Percentile(price,95%)
quant_upper=Percentile(price,95%) This level represents where 95% of past price data falls below, and in a robust uptrend the price action practically rides this line.
Color Logic:
Its color shifts from a neutral (blackish) tone to a vibrant, bullish hue when the Upper Power‑Law Band crosses above it—signaling extra strength in the trend.
Lower Quantile and Its Support
Lower Quantile Band (5% Percentile):
Calculation:
quant_lower=Percentile(price,5%)
quant_lower=Percentile(price,5%)
Behavior:
In a healthy uptrend, price remains well above the Lower Quantile Band. It turns red only when price touches or crosses it, serving as a warning signal. Under normal conditions it remains bright green, indicating the market is not nearing these extreme lows.
Lower Std Dev Band of the Lower Quantile:
This line is calculated by subtracting one standard deviation from quant_lowerquant_lower and typically serves as absolute support in nearly all conditions (except during gap or near-gap moves). Its consistent role as support provides traders with a robust level to monitor.
How to Use the Indicator:
Golden Channel and Trend Confirmation:
As price rides the Upper Quantile (95th percentile) perfectly in a healthy uptrend, the Upper Bollinger Band (1 stdev above SMA) and the Upper Std Dev Band of the Upper Quantile form a “golden channel” once price crosses above the Bollinger level. When this occurs, the Upper Std Dev Band remains gold until price dips back below the Bollinger Band. This visual cue reinforces trend strength.
Power‑Law Insights:
The Upper Power‑Law Band, which is based on extreme (95th percentile) returns, tends to align with the Upper Std Dev Band. This convergence reinforces that extreme, yet statistically expected, price moves are occurring—indicating that even though the price rides the 95th percentile, it can only stretch so far before a correction or consolidation.
Support Indicators:
Primary and Secondary Support in Uptrends:
The Upper Bollinger Band and the Lower Std Dev Band of the Upper Quantile act as support zones for minor retracements in the uptrend.
Absolute Support:
The Lower Std Dev Band of the Lower Quantile serves as an almost invariable support area under most market conditions.
Conclusion:
The Multi-Band Comparison indicator unifies advanced statistical techniques to offer a clear view of uptrend structure. In a healthy bull market, price action rides the 95th percentile line with precision, and when the Upper Bollinger Band is breached, the corresponding Upper Std Dev Band turns gold to form a “golden channel.” This, combined with the Power‑Law analysis that captures extreme moves, and the robust lower support levels, provides traders with powerful, multi-dimensional insights for managing entries, exits, and risk.

Utility:
The 𝓜𝓪𝓻𝓴𝓮𝓽 𝓟𝓮𝓻𝓯𝓸𝓻𝓶𝓪𝓷𝓬𝓮 𝓣𝓪𝓫𝓵𝓮 is divided in 4 Sections which are the GRID regimes:
Economic Growth:
Goldilocks
Reflation
Economic Contraction:
Inflation
Deflation
Top 5 Equity Style Factors:
Are the values green for a specific Column? If so then the market reflects the corresponding GRID behavior.
Bottom 5 Equity Style Factors:
Are the values red for a specific Column? If so then the market reflects the corresponding GRID behavior.
So if we have Goldilocks as current regime we would see green values in the Top 5 Goldilocks Cells and red values in the Bottom 5 Goldilocks Cells.
You will find that Reflation will look similar, as it is also a sign of Economic Growth.
Same is the case for the two Contraction regimes.

Advanced Liquidity Fibonacci Zones - Ace of TradesAdvanced Liquidity Fibonacci Zones – Ace of Trades Theory
How to Use This Script:
This advanced indicator visualizes key "liquidity zones" based on custom Fibonacci levels, reflecting the real areas where market makers, institutions, and advanced algorithms manage risk—far beyond basic retail “golden ratio” retracements. Unlike traditional tools, these zones align with the market maker theory popularized by Ace of Trades (@acethebully on X).
How to Paint the Highs and Lows
Select the Indicator ("Advanced Liquidity Fibonacci Zones – Ace of Trades Theory") and add it to your chart.
Use the two input fields to manually mark your key swing points:
Click the “Swing Low (0.0 Level)” input, then select a price bar on your chart for the swing low.
Click the “Swing High (1.0 Level)” input, then select the bar for your swing high.
These anchors will paint the exact price range that all fib zones are projected between.
The script will automatically draw all major liquidity/retracement/extension zones as colored bands or boxes across your chart, extended into the future for clear reference.
What Do the Zones Mean?
Zones are based on Ace of Trades' market maker theory. They're not just “lines”—they show where professional liquidity providers, algorithms, and institutional traders strategically rebalance, accumulate, or distribute.
Each zone is labeled with its precise fib ratio and price, with zone descriptions acknowledging their theoretical function (e.g., Golden Band, Momentum Pullback, Stop-Hunt Extension, Blow-Off Range, etc).
Best Practices
Use the script to identify areas where liquidity is expected to pool (for reaction or continuation), rather than just following retail golden ratios.
Paint your swing highs/lows cleanly—from the local low before an impulse, to the most relevant high after a move (or vice versa for down moves).
Observe how price reacts at these boundaries and plan entries/exits accordingly.
Special thanks and all intellectual credit to Ace of Trades (@acethebully on X) for his public education and original market maker insights.
This tool was developed to fully honor and operationalize the liquidity geometry theory from his work.
Macro Valuation Oscillator (MVO)Macro Valuation Oscillator (MVO) is a macro-relative-strength indicator that compares the current valuation of an asset against three key benchmarks: Gold, USD, and Bond. It helps visualize how the asset performs in relative macro terms over time.
When the MVO line for Gold (yellow) moves below the neutral zone (0), it reflects relative weakness against gold. When it rises above +80, it indicates relative strength or potential overheating compared to gold. The same concept applies to USD (blue) and Bond (purple) lines.
The indicator highlights macro-rotation behavior, showing periods when assets outperform (green) or underperform (red) in relative value. It is mainly intended for daily charts, providing a clear visual framework for assessing long-term macro relationships and timing within broader market cycles.

HOW IT WORKS
───────────────────────────────────────
OPENING RANGE BREAKOUT (ORB):
Concept:
The Opening Range is a period at the start of a trading session where price establishes an initial high and low. Breakouts beyond this range often indicate the direction of the day's trend.
Detection Method:
- Default: 15-minute opening range (configurable)
- Custom Range: Set specific session times with timezone support
- Automatically identifies ORH (Opening Range High) and ORL (Opening Range Low)
- Tracks ORB mid-point for reference
Range Establishment:
1. Session starts (or custom time begins)
2. Tracks highest high and lowest low during the period
3. Range confirmed at end of opening period
4. Levels extend throughout the session
Breakout Detection:
- Bullish Breakout: Close above ORH
- Bearish Breakout: Close below ORL
- Mid-point acts as bias indicator
Visual Display:
- Shaded box during range formation
- Horizontal lines for ORH, ORL, and mid-point
- Labels showing level values
- Color-coded fills based on selected method
Fill Color Methods:
1. Session Comparison:
- Green: Current OR mid > Previous OR mid
- Red: Current OR mid < Previous OR mid
- Gray: Equal or first session
- Shows day-over-day momentum
2. Breakout Direction (Recommended):
- Green: Price currently above ORH (bullish breakout)
- Red: Price currently below ORL (bearish breakout)
- Gray: Price inside range (no breakout)
- Real-time breakout status
MULTI-TIMEFRAME LIQUIDITY:
Two-Tier System for comprehensive level identification:
HTF (Higher Timeframe) Key Liquidity:
- Default: 4H timeframe (configurable to Daily, Weekly)
- Identifies major institutional levels
- Uses pivot detection with adjustable parameters
- Suitable for swing highs/lows where large orders rest
LTF (Lower Timeframe) Key Liquidity:
- Default: 1H timeframe (configurable)
- Provides precision entry/exit levels
- Finer granularity for intraday trading
- Captures minor swing points
Calculation Method:
- Pivot high/low detection algorithm
- Configurable left bars (lookback) and right bars (confirmation)
- Timeframe multiplier for accurate multi-timeframe detection
- Automatic level extension
Mitigation System:
- Tracks when levels are swept (broken)
- Configurable mitigation type: Wick or Close-based
- Option to remove or show mitigated levels
- Display limit prevents chart clutter
Asset-Specific Optimization:
The indicator includes quick reference settings for different assets:
- Major Forex (EUR/USD, GBP/USD): Default settings optimal
- Crypto (BTC/ETH): Left=12, Right=4, Display=7
- Gold: HTF=1D, Left=20

Lynie's V9 SELL🟢🔴 Lynie’s V8 — BUY & SELL (Mirrored, Interlocking System)
Lynie’s V8 is a paired long/short engine built as two mirrored scripts—Lynie’s V8 BUY and Lynie’s V8 SELL—that read price the same way, flip conditions symmetrically, and manage trades with the exact logic on opposite sides. Use either one standalone or run both together for full two-sided automation of entries, re-entries, caution states, and adaptive SL/TP.
✳️ What “mirrored” means here
Supertrend Tri-Stack (10/11/12):
BUY: ST10 primary pierce; ST12 fallback; “PAG Buy” when price pierces any ST while above the other two.
SELL: Exact inverse—ST10 primary pierce down; ST12 fallback; “PAG Sell” when price pierces any ST while below the other two.
Re-Enter Clusters:
BUY: Ratcheted up (Heikin-Ashi green holds/tightens).
SELL: Ratcheted down (Heikin-Ashi red holds/tightens).
Both sides use the same cluster age/decay math, care penalties, session awareness, and fast-candle tightening.
Care Flags (context risk):
Ichimoku, MACD, RSI combine into single and paired flags that tighten or widen offsets on both sides with the same scoring.
VWAP–EMA50 (5m) cluster gate:
Identical distance checks for BUY/SELL. When the mean cluster is present, offsets and labels adapt (tighter/“riskier scalp” messaging).
Golden Pocket A/B/C (prev-day):
Same fib boxes & labeling (gold tone) on both sides to call out TP-friendly zones.
SL/TP Envelope:
Shared dynamic engine: per-bar decay, fast-candle expansion, and care-based compress/relax—all mirrored for up/down.
Caution Labels:
BUY side prints CAUTION SELL if HA flips red inside an active long cluster.
SELL side prints CAUTION BUY if HA flips green inside an active short cluster.
Same latching & auto-release behavior.
🧠 Core workflow (both sides)
Primary trigger via ST10 pierce (structure shift) with an ST12 fallback when ST10 didn’t qualify.
PAG Mode when price is already on the right side of the other two STs—strongest conviction.
Cluster phase begins after a signal: ratcheted re-entry level, session-aware offsets, dynamic tightening on fast bars.
Care system shapes every re-entry & SL/TP label (Ichi/MACD/RSI combos + VWAP/EMA gate + QQE).
Protective layer: SL-wick and SL-body logic, caution flips, and “hold 1 bar” cluster carry after SL to avoid whipsaw spam.
🔎 Labels & messages (shared vocabulary)
Lynie’s / Lynie’s+ / Lynie’s++ — strength tiers (ST12 involvement & clean context).
Re-Enter / Excellent Re-Enter — cluster pullback quality; ratchet shows the “must-hold” zone.
SL&TP (n) — live offset multiplier the engine is using right now.
CAUTION BUY / CAUTION SELL — HA flip against the active side inside the cluster.
Restart Next Candle — visual cue to re-arm after a confirmed signal bar.
⚡ Why run both together
Continuity: When a long cycle ends (SL or caution degradation), the SELL engine is already tracking the inverse without re-tuning.
Symmetry: Same math, same signals, opposite direction—no hidden biases.
Coverage: Trend hand-offs are cleaner; you don’t miss early shorts after a long fade (and vice versa).
🔧 Recommended usage
Intraday futures (ES/NQ) or any liquid market.
Keep the VWAP–EMA cluster ON; it filters FOMO chases.
Honor Caution flips inside cluster—scale down or wait for the next clean re-enter.
Treat Golden Zones as TP magnets, not guaranteed reversals.
📌 Notes
Both scripts are Pine v6 and independent. Load BUY and SELL together for the full experience.
All offsets (re-enter & SL/TP) are visible in labels—so you always know why a zone is where it is.
Alerts are provided for signals, re-enter hits, caution, and SL events on both sides.
Summary: Lynie’s V8 BUY & SELL are vice-versa twins—one framework, two directions—delivering consistent entries, adaptive re-entries, and contextual risk management whether the market is pressing up or breaking down.
Auto Fibonacci LevelsAuto Fibonacci Momentum Zones with Visible Range Table
Overview and Originality
The Auto Fibonacci Momentum Zones indicator offers a streamlined, static overlay of Fibonacci retracement levels inspired by extreme RSI momentum thresholds, enhanced with a dynamic table displaying the high and low of the currently visible chart range. This isn't a repackaged RSI oscillator or basic Fib drawer—common in TradingView's library—but a purposeful fusion of geometric harmony (Fibonacci ratios) with momentum psychology (RSI extremes at 35/85), projected as fixed horizontal reference lines on the price chart. The addition of the visible range table, powered by PineCoders' VisibleChart library, provides real-time context for the chart's current view, enabling traders to quickly assess range compression or expansion relative to these zones.
This script's originality stems from its "static momentum mapping": by hardcoding Fib levels on a dynamic chart, it creates universal psychological support/resistance lines that transcend specific assets or timeframes.
Unlike dynamic Fib tools that auto-adjust to price swings (risking noise in ranging markets) or standalone RSI plots (confined to panes), this delivers clean, bias-adjustable overlays for confluence analysis. The visible range table justifies the library integration—it's not a gratuitous add-on but a complementary tool that quantifies the "screen real estate" of price action, helping users correlate Fib touches with actual volatility. Drawn from original code (no auto-generation or public templates), it builds TradingView's body of knowledge by simplifying multi-tool workflows into one indicator, ideal for discretionary traders who value visual efficiency over algorithmic complexity.
How It Works: Underlying Concepts
Fibonacci retracements, derived from the Fibonacci sequence and the golden ratio (≈0.618), identify potential reversal points based on the idea that markets retrace prior moves in predictable proportions: shallow (23.6%, 38.2%), mid (50%), and deep (61.8%, 78.6%).
Adjustable Outputs
1. The "Invert Fibs" toggle (default: true) for bearish/topping bias, can be flipped aligning with trend context.
2. Fibonacci Levels: Seven semi-transparent horizontal lines are drawn using `hline()`:
- 0.0 at high (gray).
- 0.236: high - (range × 0.236) (light cyan, shallow pullback).
- 0.382: high - (range × 0.382) (teal, common retracement).
- 0.5: midpoint average (green, equilibrium).
- 0.618: high - (range × 0.618) (amber, golden pocket for reversals).
- 0.786: high - (range × 0.786) (orange, deep support).
- 1.0 at low (gray).
Colors progress from cool (shallow) to warm (deep) for intuitive scanning.
3. Optional Fib Labels: Right-edge text labels (e.g., "0.618") appear only if enabled, positioned at the last bar + offset for non-cluttering visibility.
4. Visible Range Table: Leveraging the VisibleChart library's `visible.high()` and `visible.low()` functions, a compact 2x2 table (top-right corner) updates on the last bar to show the extrema of bars currently in view. This mashup enhances utility: Fib zones provide fixed anchors, while the table's dynamic values reveal if price is "pinned" to a zone (e.g., visible high hugging 0.382 signals resistance). The library is invoked sparingly for performance, adding value by bridging static geometry with viewport-aware data—unavailable in built-ins without custom code.
How to Use It
1. Setup:
Add to any chart (e.g., 15M for scalps, Daily for swings). As an overlay, lines appear directly on price candles—adjust chart scaling if needed.
2. Input Tweaks:
Invert Fibs: Enable for downtrends (85 top), disable for uptrends (35 bottom).
Show Fibs: Toggle labels for ratio callouts (off for clean charts).
Show Table: Display/hide the visible high/low summary (red for high, green for low, formatted to 2 decimals).
3. Trading Application:
Zone Confluence: Seek price reactions at each fibonacci level—e.g., a doji at 0.618 + rising volume suggests entry; use 0.0/1.0 as invalidation.
Range Context: Check the table: If visible high/low spans <20% of the Fib arc (e.g., both near 0.5), anticipate breakout; wider spans signal consolidation.
Multi-Timeframe: Overlay on higher TF for bias, lower for precision—e.g., Daily Fibs guide 1H entries.
Enhancements: Pair with volume or candlesticks; set alerts on line crosses via TradingView's built-in tools. Backtest on your symbols to validate (e.g., equities favor 0.382, forex the 0.786).
This indicator automates advanced Fibonacci synthesis dynamically, eliminating manual measurement and calculations.

Metallic Retracement ToolI made a version of the Metallic Retracement script where instead of using automatic zig-zag detection, you get to place the points manually. When you add it to the chart, it prompts you to click on two points. These two points become your swing range, and the indicator calculates all the metallic retracement levels from there and plots them on your chart. You can drag the points around afterwards to adjust the range, or just add the indicator to the chart again to place a completely new set of points.
The mathematical foundation is identical to the original Metallic Retracement indicator. You're still working with metallic means, which are the sequence of constants that generalize the golden ratio through the equation x² = kx + 1. When k equals 1, you get the golden ratio. When k equals 2, you get silver. Bronze is 3, and so on forever. Each metallic number generates its own set of retracement ratios by raising alpha to various negative powers, where alpha equals (k + sqrt(k² + 4)) / 2. The script algorithmically calculates these levels instead of hardcoding them, which means you can pick any metallic number you want and instantly get its complete retracement sequence.
What's different here is the control. Automatic zig-zag detection is useful when you want the indicator to find swings for you, but sometimes you have a specific price range in mind that doesn't line up with what the zig-zag algorithm considers significant. Maybe you're analyzing a move that's still developing and hasn't triggered the zig-zag's reversal thresholds yet. Maybe you want to measure retracements from an arbitrary high to an arbitrary low that happened weeks apart with tons of noise in between. Manual placement lets you define exactly which two points matter for your analysis without fighting with sensitivity settings or waiting for confirmation.
The interactive placement system uses TradingView's built-in drawing tools, so clicking the two points feels natural and works the same way as drawing a trendline or fibonacci retracement. First click sets your starting point, second click sets your ending point, and the indicator immediately calculates the range and draws all the metallic levels extending from whichever point you chose as the origin. If you picked a swing low and then a swing high, you get retracement levels projecting upward. If you went from high to low, they project downward.
Moving the points after placement is as simple as grabbing one of them and dragging it to a new location. The retracement levels recalculate in real-time as you move the anchor points, which makes it easy to experiment with different range definitions and see how the levels shift. This is particularly useful when you're trying to figure out which swing points produce retracement levels that line up with other technical features like previous support or resistance zones. You can slide the points around until you find a configuration that makes sense for your analysis.
Adding the indicator to the chart multiple times lets you compare different metallic means on the same price range, or analyze multiple ranges simultaneously with different metallic numbers. You could have golden ratio retracements on one major swing and silver ratio retracements on a smaller correction within that swing. Since each instance of the indicator is independent, you can mix and match metallic numbers and ranges however you want without one interfering with the other.
The settings work the same way as the original script. You select which metallic number to use, control how many power ratios to display above and below the 1.0 level, and adjust how many complete retracement cycles you want drawn. The levels extend from your manually placed swing points just like they would from automatically detected pivots, showing you where price might react based on whichever metallic mean you've selected.
What this version emphasizes is that retracement analysis is subjective in terms of which swing points you consider significant. Automatic detection algorithms make assumptions about what constitutes a meaningful reversal, but those assumptions don't always match your interpretation of the price action. By giving you manual control over point placement, this tool lets you apply metallic retracement concepts to exactly the price ranges you care about, without requiring those ranges to fit someone else's definition of a valid swing. You define the context, the indicator provides the mathematical framework.
ATR Anchored Range %b by TradeSeekersAll time highs got you spooked to enter with no levels in sight?
Stuck in a multi-week range and wondering where the heck the pivots are!?
Wondering if you're longing the top or shorting the potential bottom and about to get smoked, sending you back to burger flipping?!
Fret not trading friends!
I've been crafting the ultimate map for scalpers, slingers, swingers, swindlers, swashbucklers -and traders too.
Why should I care about this, what's an ATR!?
Nearly any trader that's entered the markets has heard of ATR, perhaps even taken a stab at trying to calculate the flux capacity of a weekly ATR on a lower timeframe. Continually calculating things manually sucks!
Ok, so you haven't heard of ATR? It's the average true range... what's the true range!? It's simply the low subtracted from the high (high - low) of any given candle.
How is ATR useful?
The theory is simple, if the ATRs on the daily timeframe for a stock are 5, then traders may have a reasonable expectation that any day in the near future the stock will mostly move +/- 5 pts. This +/- 5 can be used as a possible daily high and low for traders to use.
But ATR changes as time passes, with every billionaire X post, viral cat meme, fed announcement or government shutdown the market makes it's move. This means without this tool, traders need to run the standard lame (sorry) ATR indicator and then hand draw a bunch of important levels (barf).
I'm convinced and ready to join the ATR army, what do I do?
Glad to have you aboard sailor, slap this indicator on your layout - it'll initially display a bottom panel, say nice things to it.
Usage
The lower panel provides a %b plot representative of the current price relative to the timeframe and period ATR. (Defaults to 1D timeframe and 20 - 20 trading days in a month yo)
This %b plot is a map for price against the key ATR based levels and resets each time the timeframe change occurs.
Keep reading! (maybe grab a snack, you're doing great)
If you want to see what the indicator sees, how it maths the math, open the settings and check the "overlay" option... it's amazing, I know.
Main base of operations
This will be the gray area between first red and green lines, imagine this is a future candle for the timeframe anchored. The red would represent the candle high (red means stop/overbought), and the green would represent the candle low (green means go/oversold).
Regardless of the timeframe anchored, this area always represents the area the ATR indicates will be the building area of the current candle being formed. Traders should expect most of the trading to occur within this area.
The mid line
Don't diddle in the middle, this by default is the open price and it's the ultimate bias filter for bull or bear riders.
Extension areas
Beyond the gray area is the extension zone, this provides a whole ATR from the mid line to the extension.
Assembling a trade plan
There are just a couple of key concepts to master in order to become the ultimate ATR samurai warrior, capable of slicing through even the messiest liquidity.
Above the midline and holding, but still within the gray area? Could be a great long entry with targets to upper levels. The same holds true for below open and holding while still being within the lower gray area.
As price makes it's ascension or decline towards the ends of the initial gray ATR range, consider managing trades here. If it's suspected, due to a strong hold of the midline, that the range low or high is the midline, then continue to manage trades towards the extension zones.
Timeframes and periods oh my
The tooltips already provide some hints, but not everyone goes around clicking and hovering everything in sight (maybe I'm the only one that does that?).
There's a thoughtful approach to the default values, I like to consider the big market participants with my day trades, swings trades and beyond.
By default I've chosen the daily timeframe and a period of 20, one for each trading day of the calendar month.
It's no large leap to consider alternatives, what about 1W timeframe and a period of 4 (1 month) or 52 (1 year)?
The possibilities are nearly infinite, comment on any particular favorite combos.
An Italian Special Bonus!!!
...sorry, it's not pizza....
First, did you know the famous Italian Fibonacci's real name was actually Leonardo? I'm not sure how I feel about that. Fun fact, my ancestors are Italian.
Alright, you may have guessed that the special bonus is the mythical Fibonacci inspired "Golden Pocket", maybe it's a foreshadowing of your pockets - one can only hope.
Use this feature to show the commonly referenced Fibonacci levels within each major ATR range. I've seen some totally mathematical epic-ness with these hence the addition.
Once key ATR levels have been hit look for reversals back to golden pockets (you tricksy hobbits) for potential entry back towards the prior hit ATR level.
The %b turns gold if you have the feature enabled and of course the overlay displays them also, how fun!
Final thoughts
I hope you have as much fun using this indicator as I do, it has brought much joy to my trading experience. If you don't have fun with it, well I hope you had fun reading about it at least.

3/4-Bar GRG / RGR Pattern (Conditional 4th Candle)This indicator can be used to identify the Green-Red-Green or Red-Green-Red pattern.
It is a price action indicator where a price action which identifies the defeat of buyers and sellers.
If the buyers comprehensively defeat the sellers then the price moves up and if the sellers defeat the buyers then the price moves down.
In my trading experience this is what defines the price movement.
It is a 3 or 4 candle pattern, beyond that i.e, 5 or more candles could mean a very sideways market and unnecessary signal generation.
How does it work?
Upside/Green signal
Say candle 1 is Green, which means buyers stepped in, then candle 2 is Red or a Doji, that means sellers brought the price down. Then if candle 3 is forming to be Green and breaks the closing of the 1st candle and opening of the 2nd candle, then a green arrow will appear and that is the place where you want to take your trade.
Here the buyers defeated the sellers.
Sometimes candle 3 falls short but candle 4 breaks candle 1's closing and candle 2's opening price. We can enter on candle 4.
Important - We need to enter the trade as soon as the price moves above the candle 1 and 2's body and should not wait for the 3rd or 4th candle to close. Ignore wicks.
I have restricted it to 4 candles and that is all that is needed. More than that is a longer sideways market.
I call it the +-+ or GRG pattern.
Stop loss can be candle 2's mid for safe traders (that includes me) or candle 2's body low for risky traders.
Back testing suggests that body low will be useless and result in more points in loss because for the bigger move this point will not be touched, so why not get out faster.
Downside/Red signal
Say candle 1 is Red, which means sellers stepped in, then candle 2 is Green or a Doji, that means buyers took the price up. Then if candle 3 is forming to be Red and breaks the closing of the 1st candle and opening of the 2nd candle then a Red arrow will appear and that is the place where you want to take your trade.
Sometimes candle 3 falls short but candle 4 breaks candle 1's closing and candle 2's opening price. We can enter on candle 4.
We need to enter the trade as soon as the price moves below the candle 1 and 2's body and should not wait for the 3rd or 4th candle to close.
I have restricted it to 4 candles and that is all that is needed. More than that is a longer sideways market.
I call it the -+- or RGR pattern.
Stop loss can be candle 2's mid for safe traders ( that includes me) or candle 2's body high for risky traders.
Back testing suggests that body high will be useless and result in more points in loss because for the bigger move this point will not be touched, so why not get out faster.
Important Settings
You can enable or disable the 4th candle signal to avoid the noise, but at times I have noticed that the 4th candle gives a very strong signal or I can say that the strong signal falls on the 4th candle. This is mostly a coincidence.
You can also configure how many previous bars should the signal be generated for. 10 to 30 is good enough. To backtest increase it to 2000 or 5000 for example.
Rest are self explanatory.
Pointers
If after taking the trade, the next candle moves in your direction and closes strong bullish or bearish, then move SL to break even and after that you can trail it.
If a upside trade hits SL and immediately a down side trade signal is generated on the next candle then take it. Vice versa is true.
Trades need to be taken on previous 2 candle's body high or low combined and not the wicks.
The most losses a trader takes is on a sideways day and because in our strategy the stop loss is so small that even on a sideways day we'll get out with a little profit or worst break even.
Hold targets for longer targets and don't panic.
If last 3-4 days have been sideways then there is a good probability that day will be trending so we can hold our trade for longer targets. Target to hold the trade for whole day and not exit till the day closes.
In general avoid trading in the middle of the day for index and stocks. Divide the day into 3 parts and avoid the middle.
Use Support/Resistance, 10, 20, 50, 200 EMA/SMA, Gaps, Whole/Round numbers(very imp) for identifying targets.
Trail your SL.
For indexes I would use 5 min and 15 min timeframe.
For commodities and crypto we can use higher timeframe as well. Look for signals during volatile time durations and avoid trading the whole day. Signal usually gives good targets on those times.
If a GRG or RGR pattern appears on a daily timeframe then this is our time to go big.
Minimum Risk to Reward should be 1:2 and for longer targets can be 1:4 to 1:10.
Trade with small lot size. Money management will happen automatically.
With small lot size and correct Risk-Re ward we can be very profitable. Don't trade with big lot size.
Stay in the market for longer and collect points not money.
Very imp - Watch market and learn to generate a market view.
Very imp - Only 4 candles are needed in trading - strong bullish, strong bearish, hammer, inverse hammer and doji.
Go big on bearish days for option traders. Puts are better bought and Calls are better sold.
Cluster of green signals can lead to bigger move on the upside and vice versa for red signals.
Most of this is what I learned from successful traders (from the top 2%) only the indicator is mine.
Alt buy signal 1H Entry + 4H Confirm (MACD + Stoch RSI + HMA)This indicator is a multi-timeframe (MTF) analysis tool designed for the ALT trading , capturing entry signals on the 1-hour (1H) timeframe and confirming trends on the 4-hour (4H) timeframe. It combines MACD, Stoch RSI, and Hull Moving Average (HMA) to identify precise buy opportunities, particularly at reversal points after a downtrend or during trend shifts. It visually marks both past and current BUY signals for easy reference.
Key Features:
1H Entry Signal (Early Ping): Triggers on a MACD golden cross (below 0) combined with a Stoch RSI oversold cross (below 20), offering an initial buy opportunity.
4H Trend Confirmation (Entry Ready): Validates the trend with a 4H MACD histogram rising (in negative territory) or a golden cross, plus a Stoch RSI turn-up (above 30).
Past BUY Display: Labels past data points where these conditions were met as "1H BUY" or "FULL BUY," facilitating backtesting.
HMA Filter: Optional HMA(16) to confirm price breakouts, enhancing trend validation.
Purpose: Ideal for short-term scalping and swing trading. Supports a two-step strategy: initial partial entry on 1H signals, followed by additional entry on 4H confirmation.
Usage Instructions
Installation: Add the indicator to an IMX/USDT 1H chart on TradingView.
Signal Interpretation:
lime "1H BUY": 1H conditions met, consider initial entry (stop-loss: 3-5% below recent low).
green "FULL BUY": 1H+4H conditions met, confirm trend for additional entry (take-profit: 10% below recent swing high).
Customization: Adjust TF (1H/4H), MACD/Stoch RSI parameters, and HMA usage via the input settings.
Alert Setup: Enable alerts for "ENTRY READY" (1H+4H) or "EARLY PING" (1H only) conditions.
Advantages
Accuracy: Reduces false signals by combining MACD golden cross below 0 with Stoch RSI oversold conditions.
Dual Confirmation: 1H for quick timing and 4H for trend validation, improving risk management.
Visualization: Past BUY points enable easy backtesting and pattern recognition.
Flexibility: 4H confirmation mode adjustable (histogram rise or golden cross).
Limitations
Timeframe Dependency: Optimized for 1H charts; may not work on other timeframes.
Market Conditions: Potential whipsaws in sideways markets; additional filters (e.g., RSI > 50) recommended.
Manual Management: Stop-loss and take-profit require user discretion.
