HT Momentum Indicator [ ZCrypto ]
The HT Momentum Indicator is a technical analysis tool that uses the Hyperbolic Tangent (tanh) function to measure momentum in a trading instrument.
This indicator is plotted as a histogram, with positive values indicating bullish momentum and negative values indicating bearish momentum.
Here are the main features and settings of the HT Momentum Indicator:
Source: This setting allows you to choose the price data used to calculate the momentum indicator. By default, the indicator uses the (High+Low+Close)/3 price, but you can select other options such as the open, high, or low prices.
Period: This setting determines the number of periods used in the momentum calculation. By default, the indicator uses a period of 14, but you can adjust this to suit your trading style and the market you are trading.
Show Fast/Slow/VWAP: These settings allow you to choose whether or not to display the fast and slow exponential moving averages (EMAs) and the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) on the chart.
Fast Length/Slow Length/VWAP Length: These settings allow you to adjust the length of the fast and slow EMAs and the VWAP calculation.
Bull Color/Bear Color: These settings allow you to choose the colors for the bullish and bearish histograms.
Zero Line: This indicator also includes a horizontal line at the zero level to help you identify when momentum is transitioning from bullish to bearish or vice versa.
The HT Momentum Indicator can be used to identify trends, momentum shifts, and potential buy/sell signals.
you can use the fast and slow EMAs to identify short-term and long-term trends, respectively, and the VWAP to gauge the strength of buying or selling pressure.
Additionally, the HT Momentum Indicator includes four pre-programmed alert conditions, which can notify you
when the fast EMA crosses above the slow EMA,
when the VWAP crosses above the zero line,
when the histogram transitions from negative to positive values.
when the histogram transitions from negative to positive values and VWAP above zero line

HTF Cross Breakout [CHE] HTF Cross Breakout — Detects higher timeframe close crossovers for breakout signals, anchors VWAP for trend validation, and flags continuations or traps with visual extensions for delta percent and stop levels.
Summary
This indicator spots moments when the current chart's close price crosses a higher timeframe close, marking potential breakouts only when the current bar shows directional strength. It anchors a volume-weighted average price line from the breakout point to track trend health, updating labels to show if the move continues or reverses into a trap. Extensions add a dotted line linking the breakout level to the current close with percent change display, plus a stop-loss marker at the VWAP end. Signals gain robustness from higher timeframe confirmation and anti-repainting options, reducing noise in live bars compared to simple crossover tools.
Motivation: Why this design?
Traders often face false breakouts from intrabar wiggles on lower timeframes, especially without higher timeframe alignment, leading to whipsaws in volatile sessions. This design uses higher timeframe close as a stable reference for crossover detection, combined with anchored volume weighting to gauge sustained momentum. It addresses these by enforcing bar confirmation and directional filters, providing clearer entry validation and risk points without overcomplicating the chart.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Reference baseline
Standard crossover indicators like moving average crosses operate solely on the chart timeframe, ignoring higher timeframe context and lacking volume anchoring.
Architecture differences
- Higher timeframe data pulls via security calls with optional repainting control for stability.
- Anchored VWAP resets at each signal, accumulating from the breakout bar only.
- Label dynamics update in real-time for continuation checks, with extensions for visual delta and stop computation.
- Event-driven line finalization prunes old elements after a set bar extension.
Practical effect
Charts show persistent lines and labels that extend live but finalize cleanly on new events, avoiding clutter. This matters for spotting trap reversals early via label color shifts, and extensions provide quick risk visuals without manual calculations, improving decision speed in trend trades.
How it works (technical)
The indicator first determines a higher timeframe based on user selection, pulling its close price securely. It checks for crossovers or crossunders of the current close against this higher close, but only triggers on confirmed bars with matching directional opens and closes. On a valid event, a horizontal line and label mark the higher close level, while a dashed VWAP line starts accumulating typical price times volume from that bar onward. During the active phase, the breakout line extends to the current bar, the label repositions and updates text based on whether the current close holds above or below the level for bulls or bears. A background tint warns if the close deviates adversely from the current VWAP. Extensions draw a vertical dotted line at the last bar between the breakout level and close, placing a midpoint label with percent difference; separately, a label at the VWAP end shows a computed stop price. Persistent variables track the active state and accumulators, resetting on new events after briefly extending old elements. Repaint risk from security calls is mitigated by confirmed bar gating or user opt-in.
Parameter Guide
Plateau Length (reserved for future, currently unused): Sets a length for potential plateau detection in extensions; default 3, minimum 1. Higher values would increase stability but are not active yet—leave at default to avoid tuning.
Line Width: Controls thickness of breakout, VWAP, and extension lines; default 2, range 1 to 5. Thicker lines improve visibility on busy charts but may obscure price action—use 1 for clean views, 3 or more for emphasis.
+Bars after next HTF event (finalize old, then delete): Extends old lines and labels by this many bars before deletion on new signals; default 20, minimum 0. Shorter extensions keep charts tidy but risk cutting visuals prematurely; longer aids review but builds clutter over time.
Evaluate label only on HTF close (prevents gray traps intrabar): When true, label updates wait for higher timeframe confirmation; default true. Enabling reduces intrabar flips for stabler signals, though it may delay feedback—disable for faster live trading at repaint cost.
Allow Repainting: Permits real-time security data without confirmation offset; default false. False ensures historical accuracy but lags live bars; true speeds updates but can repaint on HTF closes.
Timeframe Type: Chooses HTF method—Auto Timeframe (dynamic steps up), Multiplier (chart multiple), or Manual (fixed string); default Auto Timeframe. Auto adapts to chart scale for convenience; Multiplier suits custom scaling like 5 times current; Manual for precise like 1D on any chart.
Multiplier for Alternate Resolution: Scales chart timeframe when Multiplier type selected; default 5, minimum 1. Values near 1 mimic current resolution for subtle shifts; higher like 10 jumps to broader context, increasing signal rarity.
Manual Resolution: Direct timeframe string like 60 for 1H when Manual type; default 60. Match to trading horizon—shorter for swing, longer for positional—to balance frequency and reliability.
Show Extension 1: Toggles dotted line and delta percent label between breakout level and current close; default true. Disable to simplify for basic use, enable for precise momentum tracking.
Dotted Line Width: Thickness for Extension 1 line; default 2, range 1 to 5. Align with main Line Width for consistency.
Text Size: Size for delta percent label; options tiny, small, normal, large; default normal. Smaller reduces overlap on dense charts; larger aids glance reads.
Decimals for Δ%: Precision in percent change display; default 2, range 0 to 6. Fewer decimals speed reading; more suit low-volatility assets.
Positive Δ Color: Hue for upward percent changes; default lime. Choose contrasting for visibility.
Negative Δ Color: Hue for downward percent changes; default red. Pair with positive for quick polarity scan.
Dotted Line Color: Color for Extension 1 line; default gray. Neutral tones blend well; brighter for emphasis.
Background Transparency (0..100): Opacity for delta label background; default 90. Higher values fade for subtlety; lower solidifies for readability.
Show Extension 2: Toggles stop-loss label at VWAP end; default true. Turn off for entry focus only.
Stop Method: Percent from VWAP end or fixed ticks; options Percent, Ticks; default Percent. Percent scales with price levels; Ticks suits tick-based instruments.
Stop %: Distance as fraction of VWAP for Percent method; default 1.0, step 0.05, minimum 0.0. Tighter like 0.5 reduces risk but increases stops; wider like 2.0 allows breathing room.
Stop Ticks: Tick count offset for Ticks method; default 20, minimum 0. Adjust per asset volatility—fewer for tight control.
Price Decimals: Rounding for stop price text; default 4, range 0 to 10. Match syminfo.precision for clean display.
Text Size: Size for stop label; options tiny, small, normal, large; default normal. Scale to chart zoom.
Text Color: Foreground for stop text; default white. Ensure contrast with background.
Inherit VWAP Color (BG tint): Bases stop label background on VWAP hue; default true. True maintains theme; false allows custom black base.
BG Transparency (0..100): Opacity for stop label background; default 0. Zero for no tint; up to 100 for full fade.
Reading & Interpretation
Breakout lines appear green for bullish crosses or red for bearish, extending live until a new event finalizes them briefly then deletes. Labels start blank, updating to Bull Cont. or Bear Cont. in matching colors if holding the level, or gray Bull Trap/Bear Trap on reversal. VWAP dashes yellow for bulls, orange for bears, sloping with accumulated volume weight—deviations trigger faint red background warnings. Extension 1's dotted vertical shows at the last bar, with midpoint label green/red for positive/negative percent from breakout to close. Extension 2 places a left-aligned label at VWAP end with stop price and method note, tinted to VWAP for context.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
For trend following, enter long on green Bull Cont. labels above VWAP with higher highs confirmation, filtering via rising structure; short on red Bear Cont. below. Pair with volume surges or RSI above 50 for bulls to avoid traps. For exits, trail stops using the Extension 2 level, tightening on warnings or gray labels—aggressive on continuations, conservative post-trap. In multi-timeframe setups, use default Auto on 15m charts for 1H signals, scaling multiplier to 4 for daily context on hourly; test on forex/stocks where volume is reliable, avoiding low-liquidity assets.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Signals confirm on bar close with HTF gating when strict mode active, but live bars may update if repainting enabled—opt false for backtest fidelity, true for intraday speed. Security calls risk minor repaints on HTF closes, mitigated by confirmation offsets. Resources cap at 1000 bars back, 50 lines/labels total, with event prunes to stay under budgets—no loops, minimal arrays. Limits include VWAP lag in low-volume periods and dependency on accurate HTF data; gaps or holidays may skew anchors.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Defaults suit 5m-1H charts on liquid assets: Auto HTF, no repaint, 1% stops. For choppy markets with excess signals, enable strict eval and bump multiplier to 10 for rarer triggers. If sluggish in trends, shorten extend bars to 10 and allow repainting for quicker visuals. On high-vol like crypto, widen stop % to 2.0 and use Ticks method; for stables like indices, tighten to 0.5% and keep Percent.
What this indicator is—and isn’t
This is a signal visualization layer for breakout confirmation and basic risk marking, best as a filter in discretionary setups. It isn’t a standalone system or predictive oracle—combine with price structure, news awareness, and sizing rules for real edges.

Confluence AVWAP Breakout RibbonThis advanced indicator overlays up to five Anchored VWAPs—Daily Session, Weekly, Monthly, Prior Swing High, and Prior Swing Low—directly onto your chart. It highlights a "confluence ribbon" between these levels, visually mapping the real-time price zone where institutional activity may cluster. The ribbon is colored dynamically so you can instantly spot which side of value price is breaking towards.
How it works:
• The script automatically recalculates each selected VWAP anchor in real time.
• For swing-high and swing-low anchors, it starts a new VWAP every time a new price swing is confirmed.
• You can enable or disable any anchor via the script’s Inputs panel to suit your trading style or asset.
Entry Signals:
• A long breakout (green up-arrow) triggers only on the first candle that closes above all active VWAP anchors.
• A short breakout (red down-arrow) triggers only on the first close below all active anchors.
• These signals help confirm when price makes a decisive move out of a key value zone, filtering out false or weak breakouts.
How to use:
Add the indicator to any chart or timeframe.
In the Inputs, choose which VWAP anchors to activate.
Watch for the ribbon color and width: a wider ribbon means more confluence between price zones.
Trade signals (arrows) are only painted on the first candle to break out above or below all anchors, making them easy to see and avoiding repaint.
Optional: Set up alerts using the built-in TradingView alerts for each breakout direction.
Customization:
• Toggle each anchor on/off for your preferred strategy.
• Adjust the swing length for pivots.
• Change ribbon opacity for better chart visibility.
Why it’s unique:
• Most VWAP scripts only plot a single line, or show basic session anchors.
• This indicator lets you stack up to five important VWAP anchors and requires consensus: price must clear all active anchors in one move to signal a breakout.
• The live ribbon and dynamic visuals provide clear confluence zones and breakout cues that go beyond traditional VWAP use.
Best practices:
• Works well on all major assets (stocks, crypto, FX, indices) and all chart timeframes.
• For highest reliability, use two or more anchors at a time.
• Consider using alongside your preferred trend or volatility filter.

Relative volume zone + Smart Order Flow Dynamic S/ROverview:
The Relative Volume Zone + Smart Order Flow with Dynamic S/R indicator is designed to help traders identify key trading opportunities by combining multiple technical components. This script integrates relative volume analysis, order flow detection, VWAP, RSI filtering, and dynamic support and resistance levels to offer a comprehensive view of the market conditions. It is particularly effective on shorter timeframes (M5, M15), making it suitable for scalping and day trading strategies.
Key Components:
1. Relative Volume Zones:
• The script calculates the relative volume by comparing the current volume with the average volume over a defined lookback period (volLookback). When the relative volume exceeds a specified multiplier (volMultiplier), it indicates a high volume zone, signaling potential accumulation or distribution areas.
• Purpose: Identifies high-volume trading zones that may act as significant support or resistance, indicating possible entry or exit points.
2. Smart Order Flow Analysis:
• The indicator uses Volume Delta (the difference between buying and selling volume) and a Cumulative Delta to detect order imbalances in the market.
• Order Imbalance is identified using a moving average of the Volume Delta (orderImbalance), which helps highlight hidden buying or selling pressure.
• Purpose: Reveals market sentiment by showing whether buyers or sellers dominate the market, aiding in the identification of trend reversals or continuations.
3. VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price):
• VWAP is calculated over a default daily length (vwapLength) to show the average price a security has traded at throughout the day, based on both volume and price.
• Purpose: Provides insight into the fair value of the asset, indicating whether the market is in an accumulation or distribution phase.
4. RSI (Relative Strength Index) Filter:
• RSI is used to filter buy and sell signals, preventing trades in overbought or oversold conditions. It is calculated using a specified period (rsiPeriod).
• Purpose: Reduces false signals and improves trade accuracy by only allowing trades when RSI conditions align with volume and order flow signals.
5. Dynamic Support and Resistance Levels:
• The script dynamically plots support and resistance levels based on recent swing highs and lows (swingLookback).
• Purpose: Identifies potential reversal zones where price action may change direction, allowing for more precise entry and exit points.
How It Works:
• Buy Signal:
A buy signal is generated when:
• The price enters a high-volume zone.
• The price crosses above a 5-period moving average.
• The cumulative delta shows more buying pressure (cumulativeDelta > SMA of cumulativeDelta).
• The RSI is below 70 (not in overbought conditions).
• Sell Signal:
A sell signal is generated when:
• The price enters a high-volume zone.
• The price crosses below a 5-period moving average.
• The cumulative delta shows more selling pressure (cumulativeDelta < SMA of cumulativeDelta).
• The RSI is above 30 (not in oversold conditions).
• Dynamic Support and Resistance Lines:
Drawn based on recent swing highs and lows, these lines provide context for potential price reversals or breakouts.
• VWAP and Order Imbalance Lines:
Plotted to show the average traded price and highlight order flow shifts, helping to validate buy/sell signals.
How to Use:
1. Apply the Indicator:
Add the script to your chart and adjust the settings to match your trading style and preferred timeframe (optimized for M5/M15).
2. Interpret the Signals:
Use the buy and sell signals in conjunction with dynamic support/resistance, VWAP, and order imbalance lines to identify high-probability trade setups.
3. Monitor Alerts:
Set alerts for significant order flow events to receive notifications when there is a positive or negative order imbalance, indicating potential market shifts.
What Makes It Unique:
This script is unique because it combines multiple market analysis tools — relative volume zones, smart order flow, VWAP, RSI filtering, and dynamic support/resistance — to provide a well-rounded, multi-dimensional view of the market. This integration allows traders to make more informed decisions by validating signals across various indicators, enhancing overall trading accuracy and effectiveness.
Advanced Confluence DashboardAdvanced Confluence Dashboard - Multi-Indicator Technical Analysis Tool
OVERVIEW
The Advanced Confluence Dashboard is a comprehensive technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify high-probability trade setups by tracking multiple technical indicators simultaneously. The indicator displays up to 13 different technical confluences in an easy-to-read dashboard format, providing both individual signals and an overall market bias percentage. Switch between full table view and condensed view for maximum chart flexibility.
FEATURES
- 13 Technical Confluences: RSI, VWAP, EMA Cross (9/21), MACD, Stochastic, Trend (50 EMA), Bollinger Bands, ADX Strength, Price Momentum, Volume Breakout, VWAP Bands, 200 EMA, and Price Action (Higher Highs/Lower Lows)
- Real-time Confluence Scoring: Automatically calculates bullish vs bearish signal strength

HOW IT WORKS
The indicator evaluates each enabled technical indicator and assigns it either a bullish or bearish signal based on its current state. The confluence score shows how many indicators are aligned in each direction, giving you a clear percentage-based view of market bias. For example, if 8 out of 13 indicators are bullish, you'll see a 62% LONG BIAS signal.
DISPLAY MODES
Full View: Shows all enabled indicators with their current values and signals in a detailed table format. Perfect for understanding exactly which indicators are bullish or bearish and why.
Condensed View: Shows only the confluence score (e.g., "4/13 LONG | 9/13 SHORT - SHORT BIAS 69%") and optional ATR information. This minimal display keeps your chart clean while still providing the essential confluence data you need for quick trading decisions. Ideal for scalpers and traders who want maximum chart space.

Ultimate JLines & MTF EMA (Configurable, Labels)## Ultimate JLines & MTF EMA (Configurable, Labels) — Script Overview
This Pine Script is a comprehensive, multi-timeframe indicator based on J Trader concepts. It overlays various Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), VWAP, inside bar highlights, and dynamic labels onto price charts. The script is highly configurable, allowing users to tailor which elements are displayed and how they appear.
### Key Features
#### 1. **Multi-Timeframe JLines**
- **JLines** are pairs of EMAs (default lengths: 72 and 89) calculated on several timeframes:
- 1 minute (1m)
- 3 minutes (3m)
- 5 minutes (5m)
- 1 hour (1h)
- Custom timeframe (user-selectable)
- Each pair can be visualized as individual lines and as a "cloud" (shaded area between the two EMAs).
- Colors and opacity for each timeframe are user-configurable.
#### 2. **200 EMA on Multiple Timeframes**
- Plots the 200-period EMA on selectable timeframes: 1m, 3m, 5m, 15m, and 1h.
- Each can be toggled independently and colored as desired.
#### 3. **9 EMA and VWAP**
- Plots a 9-period EMA, either on the chart’s current timeframe or a user-specified one.
- Plots VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price) for additional trend context.
#### 4. **5/15 EMA Cross Cloud (5min)**
- Calculates and optionally displays a shaded "cloud" between the 5-period and 15-period EMAs on the 5-minute chart.
- Highlights bullish (5 EMA above 15 EMA) and bearish (5 EMA below 15 EMA) conditions with different colors.
- Optionally displays the 5 and 15 EMA lines themselves.
#### 5. **Inside Bar Highlighting**
- Highlights bars where the current high is less than or equal to the previous high and the low is greater than or equal to the previous low (inside bars).
- Color is user-configurable.
#### 6. **9 EMA / VWAP Cross Arrows**
- Plots up/down arrows when the 9 EMA crosses above or below the VWAP.
- Arrow colors and visibility are configurable.
#### 7. **Dynamic Labels**
- On the most recent bar, displays labels for each enabled line (EMAs, VWAP), offset to the right for clarity.
- Labels include the timeframe, type, and current value.
### Customization Options
- **Visibility:** Each plot (line, cloud, arrow, label) can be individually toggled on/off.
- **Colors:** All lines, clouds, and arrows can be colored to user preference, including opacity for clouds.
- **Timeframes:** JLines and EMAs can be calculated on different timeframes, including a custom one.
- **Label Text:** Labels dynamically reflect current indicator values and are color-coded to match their lines.
### Technical Implementation Highlights
- **Helper Functions:** Functions abstract away the logic for multi-timeframe EMA calculation.
- **Security Calls:** Uses `request.security` to fetch data from other timeframes, ensuring accurate multi-timeframe plotting.
- **Efficient Label Management:** Deletes old labels and creates new ones only on the last bar to avoid clutter and maintain performance.
- **Conditional Plotting:** All visual elements are conditionally plotted based on user input, making the indicator highly flexible.
### Use Cases
- **Trend Identification:** Multiple EMAs and VWAP help traders quickly identify trend direction and strength across timeframes.
- **Support/Resistance:** 200 EMA and JLines often act as dynamic support/resistance levels.
- **Entry/Exit Signals:** Crosses between 9 EMA and VWAP, as well as 5/15 EMA clouds, can signal potential trade entries or exits.
- **Pattern Recognition:** Inside bar highlights aid in spotting consolidation and breakout patterns.

This script is ideal for traders seeking a robust, multi-timeframe overlay that combines trend, momentum, and pattern signals in a single, highly customizable indicator. I do not advocate to subscribe to JTrades or the system they tout. This is based on my own observations and not a copy of any JTrades scripts. It is open source to allow full transparency.
Elite By Ashu4750Inside Bar Detection:
The script identifies inside bars, which are candles where the high is lower and the low is higher than the previous bar. It tracks the high and low of the mother candle (the candle preceding the inside bars) and plots the ranges on the chart using lines and labels.
Exponential Moving Averages (EMA):
Three EMAs are calculated and plotted (with default periods of 9, 21, and 50). This is a classic trend-following technique used to smooth price data and identify the direction of the market.
Bollinger Bands (BB):
The script includes a Bollinger Band calculation using the simple moving average (SMA) with a standard deviation multiplier. The bands help visualize volatility and potential overbought or oversold conditions.
The user can configure settings like the length of the SMA and the multiplier for the upper and lower bands.
Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP):
The VWAP is plotted on the chart and reset based on user-defined timeframes (e.g., session, week, month). VWAP is a popular indicator for institutional trading, as it shows the average price weighted by volume and can act as support or resistance.
Crossover Signals (Buy/Sell):
A combination of crossovers between VWAP, EMAs, and Bollinger Bands triggers buy and sell signals. Specifically:
Buy signal is generated when VWAP crosses over the 9 EMA, the close crosses over the Bollinger Band line, and VWAP crosses over the Bollinger Band.
Sell signal is triggered when VWAP crosses under the 9 EMA, and similar conditions exist for the other indicators.
These signals are plotted with a green "Buy" or red "Sell" marker below the bars, and alerts are set up for both buying and selling.
Additional Bollinger Band Configuration:
The script provides more flexibility in Bollinger Bands by allowing the user to select between SMA, EMA, or SMMA for the moving average.
The user can also choose the standard deviation multiplier and whether to display the bands.
Alerts:
Buy and sell conditions are linked to alert conditions, allowing the user to be notified when a signal is triggered, based on the defined crossover logic.
Technical Breakdown:
Inside Bar Logic: Tracks inside bars and plots lines representing the high and low of the mother candle. The line and label functions are used to draw these on the chart, which provides a visual representation of the range.
EMA and VWAP Crossovers:
The 9, 21, and 50-period EMAs are calculated and used in crossover logic with VWAP. Crossovers between VWAP and EMAs are a common method for identifying potential trend changes.
Bollinger Bands:
The Bollinger Band component allows for volatility analysis by calculating the upper and lower bands based on the moving average's standard deviation.
Alert System:
Alerts are set for crossover signals, allowing for real-time notifications of potential buy and sell opportunities.
Visualization:
The script plots the EMAs, VWAP, and Bollinger Bands on the price chart. It highlights inside bar patterns and displays buy/sell markers on the chart when the specified conditions are met. These visual cues make it easier to follow the market’s movements and spot trading opportunities.
Customizability:
The script is highly customizable with inputs for:
EMA periods.
VWAP settings.
Bollinger Band parameters (moving average type, length, standard deviation).
Candle color options for inside bars.

Important Notes
This indicator works best on liquid instruments with clear price action
Highly volatile markets may require adjusted ATR and ORB distance settings
Session times are in EST timezone—adjust if trading non-US markets
The ORB calculation requires sufficient price history for the day
Signals are generated in real-time but should be confirmed at candle close
Limitations
Maximum of 6 timeframes can be analyzed due to TradingView's security call limits
ORB calculations may not work correctly on instruments with gaps or irregular sessions
The indicator is most effective during regular market hours when volume and volatility are adequate
Lower timeframes (1m, 5m) may produce more false signals in choppy conditions

cd_sfp_CxGeneral:
This indicator is designed to assist users who trade the Swing Failure Pattern ( SFP ).
In technical literature (various definitions exist), an SFP is a situation where the price violates a previous swing level but fails to close beyond that level.
• (Liquidity Sweep)
• (Buyer or seller dominance)
• (Stop hunt)
• (Turtle Soup)
The general strategy is built upon seeking trade opportunities after an SFP is formed and conviction is established that the market direction has changed.
Components used to gather confirmation:
• Determining Bias: Periodic SAR
• Obtaining Breakout/Reversal Confirmation: Change in State Delivery (CISD)
• Defining the Buyer/Seller Block (Supply/Demand Zones): Mitg Blocks (Mitigation Blocks), FVG (Fair Value Gaps), and Standard Deviation Projection
• Key Levels: Previous HTF (Higher Time Frame) levels
• Setting Targets: Standard Deviation Projection
• Trade Management: Anchored VWAP and opposing blocks
• Time-Based Context: Session Killzone times
• Notifications: An alarm/alert system will be utilized to stay informed.
________________________________________
Details:
Swing and Swing Failure Pattern:
Swing Sweep Types (Liquidity Sweep):
1. Single
2. Consecutive (The liquidity of the entity that swept the liquidity is being swept)
Bias Determination
We need to filter out the numerous SFPs that occur across all time frames. Our first strong filter will be the Bias. We will only look for trades aligned with our bias.
We will use Periodic SAR (Stop and Reverse) to determine the bias. We compare the price with the SAR value from a Higher Time Frame than the one we are trading on.
• Price > SAR => Bullish Bias
• Price < SAR => Bearish Bias
Depending on the pair, H1 SAR may be chosen for scalp trades, and Daily/Weekly SAR for intraday and swing trades.
Key Levels
Strategies looking for trades after a liquidity grab generally state that the sweep / stop hunt movement should occur at a significant price level.
The most fundamental Key Level levels are (User can customize):
• Previous Week High & Low
• Previous Day High & Low
• Previous H4 High & Low
• Previous H1 High & Low
• Asia Killzone High & Low
• London Killzone High & Low
• New York Killzone High & Low
• Monday Range High & Low values
We will prefer SFP formations that occur when these levels are swept. When Key Levels are violated, an information label appears on the screen.
Blocks / Zones
To strengthen our hand, we will use three types of blocks/zones, either with Key Levels or separately. When an SFP structure is formed in these areas (along with bias and breakout confirmation), our expectation is for the price to continue in our desired direction. These regions are:
1. Mitigation Blocks (Mtg)
o (Details can be found in the cd_VWAP_mtg_Cx indicator)
o In short: A second candle, following a bullish candle, crosses its high but fails to close above it. We call this a sweep / SFP. When the price, which was expected to go to the low, instead makes a new high/close, an Mtg block is formed. (Buyers are dominant)
2. FVGs (Fair Value Gaps)
o We use classic FVG structures.
3. Standard Deviation Projection Boxes
o When we get an SFP structure + breakout confirmation (CISD), we use the Standard Deviation Projection to determine our profit-taking and take-profit levels.
o Based on the idea that the price often respects the range between -2 and -2.5 of the projection values, we box this range and use it as our area of interest. (Our expectation is for the price to reverse after reaching this target).
o Let's mark it on the chart.
Confirmation
To summarize what has been explained so far: we look for the price to form an SFP structure in levels/zones we deem important, aligned with our bias, and for the breakout to be confirmed with a CISD.
No single component is strong on its own, but the success rate increases when they occur together.
We observe the following as additional confirmation along with the CISD: a new Mtg block forming in the direction of the breakout, high-volume movement (with FVG and a large body), and respect for VWAPs, the resistance/support line, and the defense block.
Additional Confirmations with Breakouts:
• Defence block, new mtg and VWAP
• Resistance / Support Line:
Indicator Signals
The indicator marks all formed sweeps, selected key levels, blocks, the projection, and CISD confirmations on the screen. The candle where the CISD confirmation occurs is indicated by an arrow.
• Arrows with double short lines signify a CISD that follows an SFP occurring at a Key Level.
• All other CISD candle indications are shown with single-line arrows.
Trade Management
When selecting profit targets in trades (preferably), the projection, opposing blocks, and structures that have formed are taken into account. Do not neglect to look at the structures that have formed against you when entering a trade.
Menu Settings:
• For Mtg blocks, the trading timeframe or a higher timeframe can be selected.
• FVGs formed in the current timeframe are displayed when the price creates an SFP (in "Fvg" option).
• Deviation boxes are displayed when the price creates an SFP (in box).
• The SAR HTF setting (H1) for scalp trades may vary depending on the pair. Users trying trades on higher timeframes should increase the HTF setting.
o Example: If you are looking for a trade with an SFP structure on H1, the SAR HTF setting should be H4 or higher.
• VWAP lines are refreshed starting from the candle that executed the sweep when the price forms an SFP. The only setting to adjust is the source selection setting (hlc3 is selected).
• Time frames and Killzone / Special Zone settings for Key Levels can be changed/should be checked.
Alarms / Alerts:
The conditions that will trigger an alert can be selected from the menu.
• To receive an alert aligned with the bias, the "Alignment with bias" checkbox must be selected.
• The alert should be set on the timeframe where you plan to enter the trade.
• The display options do not affect the alarm conditions. (Example: FVGs are monitored even when the menu selection is "off").
• If the necessary conditions are met, the alarm is triggered on the new candle that opens after the CISD confirmation.
• The alarm will not be triggered more than once at the same Key Level.
The user can preferably select alerts:
• Bias-aligned or Bias-independent
• Sweep (without waiting for CISD)
• Sweep + CISD (without looking for other conditions)
• Sweep + Key Level + CISD (the swept level is a Key Level)
• Sweep + Mtg / Fvg / Dev. + CISD (SFP formed in any of the blocks)
• Sweep + Mtg + CISD (SFP formed in the Mtg block)
• Sweep + Fvg + CISD (SFP formed inside the FVG)
• Sweep + Deviation Box + CISD (SFP formed inside the Dev. Box)
• Sweep + Key Level + Mtg / Fvg / Dev. + CISD (SFP formed simultaneously at a Key Level and any of the blocks)
Trade Example:
• Conditions: Bias-aligned + Sweep + Mtg/Fvg/Dev (at least one) + CISD
• Extra Confirmations: Respect for the Defense Block + Respect for VWAP
• Target (TP): Projection between -2 and -2.5
I welcome your thoughts and suggestions regarding my indicator, which I believe will be successful in the long run by adhering to uncompromising risk management and a strict trading plan.
Happy Trading!
Ultimate Scalping IndicatorOverview
The Confluence Signal Indicator is a precision-built scalping tool designed to identify high-probability reversal points in the market.
It combines three core technical elements:
Trend
Mean reversion
Momentum
into a single, efficient system.
By filtering out weak RSI signals and focusing only on setups that align with trend direction and recent momentum shifts, this indicator delivers cleaner and more accurate short-term trade signals.
Core Components
200-Period Moving Average (MA200, 5-Minute Timeframe)
The MA200 is always calculated from the 5-minute chart, regardless of your current timeframe. It defines the macro trend direction and ensures that all trades align with the prevailing momentum.
Session VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price)
The VWAP tracks the real-time average price weighted by volume for the current trading session. It acts as a dynamic mean-reversion level and helps identify key areas of institutional activity and short-term balance.
RSI (Relative Strength Index)
The indicator uses a standard 14-period RSI to detect overbought and oversold market conditions.
A “recency filter” is added to ensure signals only appear when RSI has recently transitioned from strength to weakness or vice versa, reducing false signals in trending markets.
Signal Logic
Bullish Signal (Green Arrow)
A bullish reversal signal is plotted below a candle when:
Price is above both the 5-minute MA200 and the Session VWAP.
RSI is oversold (below 30).
The last time RSI was above 50 occurred within the last 10 candles before going oversold.
This ensures that the dip is a fresh pullback within an uptrend, not a prolonged oversold condition.
Bearish Signal (Red Arrow)
A bearish reversal signal is plotted above a candle when:
Price is below both the 5-minute MA200 and the Session VWAP.
RSI is overbought (above 70).
The last time RSI was below 50 occurred within the last 10 candles before going overbought.
This ensures that the overbought reading follows a recent move from weakness, identifying potential short entries in a downtrend.
Recommended Usage
This is a scalping-focused indicator, intended for use on timeframes of 5 minutes or lower. Therefore I would highly recommend to use it on Equity futures trading, such as NQ!, ES!, GC! and so on.
It performs best when combined with additional tools such as support and resistance zones, order blocks, or liquidity levels for context.
Avoid counter-trend signals unless confirmed by price structure or volume behavior.
F & W SMC Alerthis script is a custom TradingView indicator designed to combine elements of a trend‑following VWAP approach (inspired by the “Fabio” strategy) with a smart‑money‑concepts framework (inspired by Waqar Asim). Here’s what it does:
* **Directional bias:** It calculates a 15‑minute VWAP and compares the current 15‑minute close to it. When price is above the 15‑minute VWAP, the script assumes a long bias; when below, a short bias. This reflects the trend‑following aspect of the Fabio strategy.
* **Liquidity sweeps:** Using recent pivot highs and lows on the current timeframe, it identifies when price takes out a recent high (for potential longs) or low (for potential shorts). This represents a “liquidity sweep” — a fake breakout that collects stops and signals a possible reversal or continuation.
* **Break of structure (BOS):** After a sweep, the script confirms that price is breaking away from the swept level (i.e., higher than recent highs for longs or lower than recent lows for shorts). This BOS confirmation helps avoid false signals.
* **Entry filters:** For a long setup, the bias must be long, there must be a liquidity sweep followed by a BOS, and price must reclaim the current‑timeframe VWAP. For a short setup, the opposite conditions apply (short bias, sweep + BOS to the downside, and price rejecting the VWAP).
* **Alerts and plot:** It provides two alert conditions (“Fabio‑Waqar Long Setup” and “Fabio‑Waqar Short Setup”) that you can attach to notifications. It also plots the intraday VWAP on your chart for visual reference.
In short, this script watches for a confluence of trend direction, liquidity sweeps, structural shifts, and VWAP reclaim/rejection, and then notifies you when those conditions align. You can use it as an alerting tool to identify high‑probability setups based on these combined strategies.

TwinPulse Q Lead SPY x QQQ Intermarket Pulse 1HTwinPulse Q Lead is a concise one hour indicator for SPY and QQQ that converts three sources of market information into a single pulse line, a mode readout with BUY SELL WAIT, and compact alerts. It blends intermarket leadership between QQQ and SPY, intraday flow from the slope of session VWAP, and where the current price sits inside the regular trading hours range. The three components are normalized, fused, compressed to a stable range, and smoothed for clear thresholds. The aim is a readable intraday regime signal that helps you decide when to participate and when to stand aside.
The script is built with Pine v6, uses request security with lookahead off, and does not repaint. It is an indicator, not a strategy. It does not contain any solicitation, links, or outside references. The description is self contained and explains both logic and use so that any trader can understand the design without reading code.
What makes this original and useful
Intermarket leadership is measured directly from QQQ and SPY on your working timeframe using a Z score of the return spread. When growth is leading value heavy large caps, leadership turns positive. When it lags, leadership turns negative. This gives a real time read of the Nasdaq versus S and P tug of war that most day traders watch informally.
Intraday flow is taken from the slope of the session VWAP. A linear regression of VWAP over a short window captures whether value is rising or falling inside the day. Dividing by ATR normalizes slope by typical movement so that the signal is comparable across weeks.
Session position places price inside the current regular hours high to low. It answers whether the day is trading in the top half, the bottom half, or the middle. This is a simple but powerful context filter for breakouts and fades.
The three components are fused into one pulse, compressed with either hyperbolic tangent or softsign to keep values bounded, and then smoothed by a short EMA. This yields a stable range with a zero line so the eye can read shifts quickly.
The panel shows a human readable mode with reasons and a strength score. Traders who do not want to read lines can rely on a simple state and a compact justification that explains why the state is set.
This is not a mashup that simply overlays unrelated indicators. Each component was chosen to answer a distinct question that is common to SPY and QQQ intraday decision making. Leadership answers who is in charge, flow answers whether value inside the session is building or leaking, and position answers if price is pressing the extremes or circling the middle. The pulse ties the three together and prevents any single component from dominating.
How the calculations work
Leadership. Compute a short rate of change for SPY and QQQ. Subtract SPY from QQQ to get spread returns, then compute a rolling Z score over a longer window. Positive values mean QQQ is leading. Negative values mean SPY is leading.
Flow. Compute session VWAP on the active symbol. Regress VWAP over a short window to obtain a slope estimate. Divide by ATR to scale slope by current volatility so that a small rise on a quiet day is not treated the same as a small rise on a wild day.
Position. Track the highest high and lowest low since the start of regular hours. Place the current close inside that range on a zero to one scale, then recenter to a minus one to plus one scale. Positive means the top half of the day, negative means the bottom half.
Fusion. Multiply each component by a weight so users can emphasize or de emphasize leadership, flow, or position. Sum to a raw pulse.
Compression. Pass the raw pulse through a bounded function. Hyperbolic tangent is smooth and has natural saturation near the extremes. Softsign is faster and behaves like a smoother version of sign near zero. Compression avoids unbounded excursions and makes thresholds meaningful across days.
Smoothing. Apply a short EMA to the compressed pulse to reduce noise. This creates the main line called TwinPulse in the plot.
Thresholds. You can use static symmetric levels or adaptive levels. The adaptive option computes a mean and a standard deviation of the smoothed pulse over a user window, then sets upper and lower thresholds as mean plus or minus sigma times standard deviation. This allows thresholds to adjust across regimes. Static levels are still available for traders who want repeatable levels.
Events and mode. A long event fires when the smoothed pulse crosses the upper threshold with positive flow and any optional filters agree. A short event fires on the symmetric condition. The mode reads the current state rather than fire and forget. It returns BUY when the smoothed pulse is above the upper threshold with positive flow, SELL when the smoothed pulse is below the lower threshold with negative flow, otherwise WAIT. A cooldown controls how often events can fire so alerts do not spam during choppy periods.
Inputs and default values
The script ships with defaults chosen for SPY and QQQ on one hour charts.
Symbols. SPY and QQQ by default. You can switch to any pair. Many users may test IWM versus SPY for small cap reads.
Regular hours selector. On by default. This restricts the position factor to New York regular hours. Turn it off if you prefer full session behavior.
ROC length is three bars. Z score length is fifty bars. VWAP slope window is ten bars. ATR length is fourteen bars. Pulse smoothing length is three bars.
Compression mode. Choose hyperbolic tangent or softsign. Hyperbolic tangent is default.
Weights. Leadership and flow are one by default. Position is set to zero point seven to give a modest influence to where price sits inside the day.
Thresholds. Adaptive thresholds are on by default with a lookback of one hundred bars and a sigma width of zero point eight. Static levels at plus or minus zero point six are ready if you disable adaptive mode.
Filters. ADX filter is off by default. If you enable it, the script requires ADX above a user minimum before it will signal. Higher time frame confirmation is off by default. When enabled it compares the smoothed pulse on the confirm timeframe to zero and requires alignment for longs or shorts.
Cooldown. Three bars by default so that alerts do not trigger too frequently.
UI. Bar coloring is on by default. The panel is on by default and sits at the top right.
All request security calls use lookahead off and will not request future data. All persistent state variables are assigned in a way that prevents repainting. The indicator does not use non standard chart types in its logic.
How to use the indicator
Load a one hour chart of SPY or QQQ. Keep a clean chart so that the script output is easy to read.
Turn on regular hours if you want the session position to reflect the cash session. This is recommended for SPY and QQQ.
Watch the panel. Mode reads BUY or SELL or WAIT. The strength value is a simple vote based score that ranges from zero to one hundred. It counts leadership, flow, ADX if enabled, and higher time frame confirmation if enabled. You can use strength to filter weak states.
Consider action only when mode is BUY or SELL and the signal has not just fired on the last bar. The triangles mark where an event fired. Alerts use the same logic as the events. WAIT means stand aside.
To slow the system, enable ADX and set a higher minimum or enable higher time frame confirmation. To speed it up, disable the filters, disable adaptive thresholds, or tighten the sigma width.
When publishing, use a clean chart with only this indicator. Show the symbol and timeframe clearly and make sure the plot legend is visible. If you add drawings on the chart, only include ones that help readers understand the output.
Publication notes and compliance
This description is written in English. The title uses ASCII and only uses capital letters for common abbreviations. The script is original and explains how and why the components work together. There are no links or promotional material. The script does not claim performance. It does not use lookahead. The panel and alerts exist to help a human read and act with discipline. The indicator can be published as open source or as protected. If you choose protected, the description still allows readers to understand how the logic works without access to the code.
If you later convert the logic into a strategy for publication, use realistic commission and slippage, risk no more than a small share of equity per trade, and choose a dataset that yields a large enough sample. Explain any deviations from these default recommendations in your strategy description. Do not publish results from non standard chart types since they can mislead readers on signal timing.
Limitations and risks
Intermarket leadership is a relative measure. There are hours when both SPY and QQQ fall while leadership remains positive. Treat leadership as a context, not a stand alone trigger.
VWAP slope is a path measure inside the session. It can flip several times on a choppy day. That is why the script uses a short smoothing and an optional cooldown. Use ADX or higher time frame confirmation to avoid the worst chop.
Session position assumes a meaningful regular hours range. On half days or around openings with gaps the position factor can be less informative. If this bothers you, reduce the weight of position or turn it off.
Compression and smoothing introduce lag by design. The goal is stability and clarity. If you want earlier but noisier signals, reduce smoothing and weights, and use static thresholds.
No indicator guarantees future results. TwinPulse Q Lead is a decision aid. It should be combined with your risk rules, position size policy, and a clear exit plan. Past behavior is not a promise for the future.
Frequently asked questions
What symbols are supported. Any symbol can be used as the chart symbol. Leadership uses the two user symbols which default to SPY and QQQ. Many traders may try IWM versus SPY or DIA versus SPY.
Can I change the timeframe. Yes, but the design target is one hour. On very short timeframes the VWAP slope becomes very sensitive and you should consider stronger filters.
Does the script repaint. No. It uses request security with lookahead off and the panel updates on the last bar only. Events are based on bar close conditions unless you attach alerts on any alert function call which will still respect the logic without looking into the future.
How are the strength numbers built. The strength score is the share of aligned votes across leadership, flow, ADX if enabled, and higher time frame confirmation if enabled. A value near one hundred means many filters agree. A value near fifty means partial alignment. It is not a probability or an accuracy number.
Can I use non standard chart types. You can view the indicator on them but do not publish signals from non standard chart types because that can mislead readers about timing. Use classic candles or bars when you publish and when you test.
Why do I sometimes see BUY but the price is not moving. A BUY mode requires pulse above the upper threshold and positive flow. It does not require higher highs immediately. Treat BUY as a permission to look for entries using your own execution rules.
Z-Score Volume with CVD Clustering Script Title:
Z-Score Volume with CVD Clustering & NY VWAP
📘 Description:
This indicator combines statistical volume analysis with order flow confirmation to detect high-probability trade zones and volume-based divergences.
📌 Components:
Z-Score of Volume: Identifies statistically significant volume surges or drops relative to a moving average baseline.
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD): Gauges net buying vs. selling pressure using high-frequency bid/ask delta.
K-Means Clustering: Applies clustering logic to classify each bar into:
Cluster 2 – Strong Bullish: Z-Score and CVD both strong
Cluster 1 – Divergence / Bull Trap: Z-Score high, but weak CVD
Cluster 0 – Neutral / Noise: No clear alignment
Anchored VWAP (NY Session Open): Confirms market structure and institutional trend bias from 9:30 AM ET forward.
🎯 Suggested Applications:
✅ 1. Trend Continuation Entries (Add-ons):
Look to add to positions when:
Cluster 2 signal occurs
Price is above the NY session VWAP
Price structure has broken out of prior day high/low or range
⚠️ 2. Divergence Detection (Fade Traps):
Cluster 1 signals a bearish divergence (e.g., high volume but weak CVD).
Especially useful when price is failing to stay above VWAP.
Useful for early exits or reversal setups.
📊 3. Volume Profile Confirmation:
Combine with fixed or session-based volume profile tools.
Use Z-Score clusters to confirm volume spikes into low-volume nodes (LVNs) or during imbalance transitions.
📍 4. VWAP Structure Confirmation:
Anchored VWAP acts as a dynamic reference point.
Helps confirm acceptance vs. rejection zones at key institutional levels.
📈 Visuals & Alerts:
Color-coded volume bars show intensity of Z-Score & CVD confluence
CVD Line plots real-time delta bias with green/red coloring
Cluster-based shape markers highlight key bars for actionable signals
Optional: Add alerts for Cluster 2 above VWAP or Cluster 1 below VWAP
⚙️ Customization Options:
Adjustable Z-Score length
Custom anchor timeframe for CVD (e.g., 1D or sessions)
Adjustable max lookback depth
Toggle VWAP inclusion
Extendable to include additional filters: RSI, structure break alerts, etc.
🔧 Ideal Use Cases:
NY session intraday traders (ES, NQ, CL, 6E, FX pairs)
Breakout traders wanting order flow confirmation
Mean reversion traders spotting fake moves
Volume-based scalpers looking for edge on short-term order imbalance

OG Volume PowerDescription:
The OG Volume Power is an elite-level volume analysis suite built for identifying momentum surges, trend continuation, and buyer/seller imbalances at critical price levels. It combines real-time VWAP tracking, a dynamic Point of Control (POC), and volume delta clusters to give traders a complete picture of price and volume interaction.
🔍 Key Features:
Real-Time VWAP:
Tracks volume-weighted average price to identify mean reversion and intraday fair value zones. Ideal for institutional-level entries and exits.
Dynamic POC (Point of Control):
Automatically finds the price level with the highest volume over the last N candles (default 50), helping traders pinpoint where market participants are most committed.
Buyer/Seller Volume Delta Clusters:
Highlights imbalances between buying and selling pressure using bullish and bearish volume deltas that exceed the 20-bar volume average — excellent for momentum detection and early trend recognition.
⚙️ How It Works:
Green triangle: Buyer surge (bullish delta + above average volume)
Red triangle: Seller surge (bearish delta + above average volume)
Magenta line: Dynamic POC (highest volume price over recent candles)
Orange line: VWAP (acts as a magnetic force for price)
📈 Best For:
Intraday scalping or swing trading on SPY, QQQ, BTC, or Forex
Volume flow confirmation before breakout entries
Filtering false breakouts with delta strength signals
🧠 Pro Tip:
Use OG Volume Power alongside your trend indicators (like OG EMA Stack or OG Supertrend) to confirm that volume is backing the move. Look for surges near VWAP or POC zones for sniper-level entries.
Daily Directional Bias Indicator (S&P 500)This indicator is designed to help you be on the right side of the trade.
Most traders who struggle to know which way price may move are only looking at part of the picture. This Directional Bias Indicator uses both the Accumulation/Distribution Line and VIX for directional confirmation.
The Accumulation/Distribution Line
The Accumulation/Distribution (ACC) line helps us gauge market momentum by showing the cumulative flow of money into or out of an asset. When the ACC line is rising, it suggests that buying pressure is dominating, indicating a bullish market. Conversely, when the ACC line is falling, it suggests that selling pressure is stronger, indicating a bearish market. By comparing the ACC line with the VWAP, traders can see if the price is moving in line with the overall market sentiment. If the ACC line is above the VWAP, it suggests the market is in a bullish phase; if it's below, it indicates a bearish phase.
The VIX
The VIX (Volatility Index) is often referred to as the "fear gauge" of the market. When the VIX is rising, it typically signals increased market fear and higher volatility, which can be a sign of bearish market conditions. Conversely, when the VIX is falling, it suggests lower volatility and a more stable, bullish market. Using the VIX with the VWAP helps us confirm market direction, particularly in relation to the S&P 500.
VWAP
For both the ACC Line and VIX, we use a VWAP line to gauge whether the ACC line or the VIX is above or below the average. When the ACC line is above the VWAP, we view it as a sign that price will go up. However, because the VIX has an inverse relationship, when the VIX falls below the VWAP, we take that as a sign to go long.
How to use
The yellow line represents the ACC Line.
The red line represents the VWAP based on the ACC line.
The triangles at the bottom simply show when the ACC line is above or below the VWAP.
The triangles at the top show whether the VIX is bullish or bearish.
If both triangles (top or bottom) are bullish, this confirms that the price of an asset like the S&P 500 will likely go up. If both triangles are pointing down, it suggests that price will fall.
As always, test for yourself.
Happy trading!
Optimus trader Optimus Trader
Indicator Description:
The Optimus Trader indicator is designed for technical traders looking for entry and exit points in financial markets. It combines signals based on volume, moving averages, VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price), as well as the recognition of candlestick patterns such as Pin Bar and Inside Bars. This indicator helps identify opportune moments to buy or sell based on trends, volumes, and recent liquidity zones.
Parameters and Features:
1. Simple Moving Average (MA) and VWAP:
- Optimus Trader uses a 50-period simple moving average to determine the underlying trend. It also includes VWAP for precise price analysis based on traded volumes.
- These two indicators help identify whether the market is in an uptrend or downtrend, enhancing the reliability of buy and sell signals.
2. Volume :
- To avoid false signals, a volume threshold is set using a 20-period moving average, adjusted to 1.2 times the average volume. This filters signals by considering only high-volume periods, indicating heightened market interest.
3. Candlestick Pattern Recognition:
- Pin Bar: This sought-after candlestick pattern is detected for both bullish and bearish setups. A bullish or bearish *Pin Bar* often signals a possible reversal or continuation.
- *Inside Bar*: This price compression pattern is also detected, indicating a zone of indecision before a potential movement.
4. Trend:
- An uptrend is confirmed when the price is above the MA and VWAP, while a downtrend is identified when the price is below both indicators.
5. Liquidity Zones:
- Optimus Trader includes an approximate liquidity zone detection feature. By identifying recent support and resistance levels, the indicator detects if the price is near these zones. This feature strengthens the relevance of buy or sell signals.
6. Buy and Sell Signals:
- Buy: A buy signal is generated when the indicator detects a bullish *Pin Bar* or *Inside Bar* in an uptrend with high volume, and the price is close to a liquidity zone.
- Sell: A sell signal is generated when a bearish *Pin Bar* or *Inside Bar* is detected in a downtrend with high volume, and the price is near a liquidity zone.
Signal Display:
The signals are visible directly on the chart:
- A "BUY" label in green is displayed below the bar for buy signals.
- A "SELL" label in red is displayed above the bar for sell signals.
Summary:
This indicator is intended for traders seeking precise entry and exit points by integrating trend analysis, volume, and candlestick patterns. With liquidity zones, *Optimus Trader* helps minimize false signals, providing clear and accurate alerts.

Float Rotation TrackerFloat Rotation Tracker - Quick Reference Guide
What is Float Rotation?
Float Rotation = Cumulative Daily Volume ÷ Float
Example:
Float = 5,000,000 shares
Day Volume = 7,500,000 shares
Rotation = 7.5M ÷ 5M = 1.5x (150%)
When rotation hits 1x (100%), every available share has theoretically changed hands at least once during the trading day.
Why It Matters
RotationMeaningImplication0.5x50% of float tradedInterest building1.0x 🔥Full rotationExtreme interest confirmed2.0x 🔥🔥Double rotationVery high volatility3.0x 🔥🔥🔥Triple rotationRare - maximum volatility
Key insight: High rotation on a low-float stock = explosive potential

Common Questions
Q: Why is my float showing "Manual (no data)"?
A: TradingView doesn't have float data for this stock. Enter the float manually in settings after looking it up on Finviz or Yahoo Finance.
Q: The rotation seems too high/low - is the float wrong?
A: Possibly. Cross-check float on Finviz. Recent offerings or share structure changes may not be reflected in TradingView's data.
Q: What if float rotates early in the day?
A: Early 1x rotation (within first hour) is very bullish - indicates massive interest. Watch for continuation patterns.
Q: High rotation but price is dropping?
A: This is distribution - large holders are selling into demand. High rotation doesn't guarantee price direction, just volatility.
Q: Can I use this for swing trading?
A: The indicator resets daily, so it's designed for intraday use. You could note multi-day rotation patterns manually.
