BISI - SIBI (FVG) + Order Blocks + iFVG Impulsive Candles This indicator highlights three core price-action elements used in imbalance and liquidity-based trading: Fair Value Gaps (FVG) — BISI / SIBI • Bullish FVG (BISI): when the current low is above the high from two bars ago (low > high ). • Bearish FVG (SIBI): when the current high is below the low from two bars ago (high < low ). Each FVG is drawn as a box with customizable text, color, opacity, and borders. Order Blocks (OB) — Displacement Logic • Bullish OB: previous candle is bearish and current close breaks above the previous high (displacement). • Bearish OB: previous candle is bullish and current close breaks below the previous low. The Order Block is defined by candle high/low and drawn as a box. iFVG Candle Coloring (Optional) Bars are colored when an FVG or strict iFVG condition is detected. This allows quick visual identification of imbalance candles without overcrowding the chart. AUTO STRETCH & AUTO DELETE — Clean Chart Logic • Stretch: FVG and OB boxes extend to the right until mitigation. • Auto-delete: once a zone is considered “filled,” it can be automatically removed to keep charts clean. Definition of “filled” used in this script: A zone is considered touched when the candle body (Open/Close range) crosses the box range: min(open, close) < top AND max(open, close) > bottom. This is intentionally stricter than wick-based fills to avoid premature invalidations. KEY SETTINGS • Lookback Bars — Limits detection range for performance and clarity. • Max PD Arrays — Controls maximum stored zones to prevent overload. • Stretch Until Filled — Extends zones dynamically. • Auto-delete When Filled — Removes mitigated zones. • Opacity & Borders — Full visual customization. • Min Penetration (iFVG) — Controls strictness of iFVG qualification. BEST PRACTICES • FVGs are commonly used as retracement zones after displacement, especially within HTF structure alignment. • Order Blocks are most effective when preceded by liquidity sweeps or strong expansion. • iFVG coloring helps identify impulsive behavior quickly without clutter. LIMITATIONS • This is a visual analytical tool, not a standalone entry system. • Fill logic is based on body penetration (not wick-based). • Very low timeframes with large lookback settings may impact performance.

Volumetric Supply and Demand Zones [BOSWaves]Volumetric Supply and Demand Zones - Impulse-Based Zone Detection with Embedded Volume Profile Analysis Overview Volumetric Supply and Demand Zones is an impulse-driven zone identification system that marks significant reversal areas through swing detection and volume accumulation patterns, where zone boundaries dynamically reflect actual trading activity concentration rather than arbitrary price levels. Instead of relying on traditional horizontal support/resistance lines or fixed pivot structures, zone placement, thickness, and volumetric composition are determined through ATR-normalized impulse detection, volume profile distribution analysis, and delta decomposition within base formation periods. This creates adaptive supply and demand boundaries that reflect actual volume accumulation patterns rather than simple price extremes - contracting zones around high-volume concentration areas when profile shows tight distribution, expanding zones during dispersed volume activity, and incorporating positive/negative delta breakdowns to reveal whether zones formed under buying or selling pressure dominance. Price interactions are therefore evaluated relative to volume-weighted zone structures and point-of-control levels rather than conventional naked price zones. Conceptual Framework Volumetric Supply and Demand Zones is founded on the principle that meaningful reversal zones emerge where significant volume accumulated during consolidation before impulse moves rather than at simple swing high/low pivot points. Traditional supply and demand methods identify zones using price structure alone through swing detection or candlestick patterns, which often ignores the underlying volume distribution and buying/selling pressure that validates institutional accumulation or distribution. This framework replaces price-only logic with volume-weighted zone construction informed by actual trading activity concentration and delta composition. Three core principles guide the design: Zone boundaries should encompass base formation periods preceding impulse moves, not isolated pivot candles alone. Volume profile distribution within zones must reveal where actual trading activity concentrated, identifying true points of control. Delta decomposition exposes whether zones formed under buying pressure (demand accumulation) or selling pressure (supply distribution). This shifts supply and demand analysis from naked price levels into volume-validated, delta-aware institutional footprint zones. Theoretical Foundation The indicator combines swing pivot detection, ATR-based impulse measurement, volume profile construction, and delta decomposition analysis. A pivot detection system identifies local swing highs and lows using configurable left/right bar parameters. Impulse validation measures the subsequent price move magnitude relative to ATR, confirming whether the swing preceded a significant directional thrust. Zone boundaries encompass a lookback period of candles forming the base, with maximum height capped by ATR multiplier to prevent excessively large zones. Volume profile divides each zone into horizontal rows, distributing volume proportionally based on price overlap and identifying the point of control (highest volume row). Delta profile separates volume into buying versus selling components using close-open relationships, revealing net directional pressure within each profile row. Five internal systems operate in tandem: Swing Detection Engine : Identifies pivot highs and lows using symmetrical left/right bar confirmation for potential zone anchor points. Impulse Validation System : Measures price movement magnitude following pivot formation, requiring ATR-multiple threshold breach to confirm zone significance. Volume Profile Constructor : Divides zone height into configurable rows, allocates volume proportionally based on bar price range overlap with each row, identifies POC as highest-volume row. Delta Decomposition Engine : Separates volume into buying (up-close bars) versus selling (down-close bars) components within each profile row, calculates net delta and dominant pressure direction. Zone Merge Logic : Detects overlapping zones of same type (supply/supply or demand/demand), combines boundaries and recalculates volume/delta statistics with weighted blending. This design allows supply and demand zones to reflect actual volume accumulation reality rather than reacting mechanically to price pivots alone. How It Works Volumetric Supply and Demand Zones evaluates price through a sequence of volume-aware zone construction processes: Pivot Identification : Swing detection algorithm identifies local highs and lows using configurable left/right bar symmetry, marking potential reversal zone anchors. Impulse Magnitude Validation : Following pivot formation, price movement measured relative to ATR over lookback period - move must exceed ATR multiplier threshold to confirm zone validity. Base Period Boundary Definition : Zone encompasses pivot bar plus configurable lookback candles forming the consolidation base preceding impulse move. Height Normalization : Raw zone height (high to low of base period) capped at maximum ATR multiplier to prevent zones becoming unreasonably large during extended consolidations. Volume Profile Row Allocation : Zone divided into configurable number of horizontal rows, each bar's volume distributed proportionally based on price range overlap with row boundaries. Point of Control Identification : Row with highest accumulated volume marked as POC, representing price level with maximum trading activity concentration within zone. Delta Component Separation : Each bar's volume classified as buying (close > open) or selling (close < open), allocated to respective delta buckets within overlapping profile rows. Delta Profile Construction : Net delta (buy volume minus sell volume) calculated per row, rendered as horizontal bars extending from zone right edge inward with green (positive) or red (negative) coloring. Overlap Detection and Merging : New zones checked against existing zones of same type, overlapping zones within merge gap threshold combined with boundary expansion and volume/delta statistics aggregation. Mitigation Detection : Price interaction monitoring using configurable method (wick or close) determines when zones violated, triggering zone deletion and cleanup of all visual elements. Together, these elements form a continuously updating supply and demand framework anchored in volume accumulation reality and delta pressure composition. Interpretation Volumetric Supply and Demand Zones should be interpreted as volume-validated institutional footprint zones: Demand Zones (Green) : Form at swing lows preceding upward impulse moves exceeding ATR threshold - represent areas where buyers accumulated positions before markup phase, volume profile shows where bids concentrated. Supply Zones (Red) : Establish at swing highs preceding downward impulse moves exceeding ATR threshold - identify areas where sellers distributed positions before markdown phase, volume profile shows where offers concentrated. Volume Profile Bars : Horizontal bars extending from zone left edge show relative volume distribution across price levels - longer bars indicate higher trading activity, revealing true institutional accumulation/distribution levels versus arbitrary zone edges. Point of Control Line (White) : Horizontal line within zone marks price level with maximum volume concentration - represents the most significant institutional activity level, often acts as magnetic price level during retests. Delta Profile Bars : Horizontal bars extending from zone right edge inward display net buying/selling pressure per price level - green bars show buy volume dominance (accumulation), red bars show sell volume dominance (distribution). Zone Info Box : Text panel on right edge displays zone type (SUPPLY/DEMAND), status (Fresh/Tested), total volume, net delta, and touch count - provides quantitative validation of zone significance. Fresh Status : Newly created zones not yet tested by price - highest probability reversal zones as institutional orders likely remain unfilled. Tested Status : Zones where price returned and interacted with boundaries - touch count reveals how many times zone provided support/resistance, excessive touches suggest weakening. Merged Zones : Wider zones with higher volume/delta values formed by combining multiple overlapping base periods - represent extended institutional accumulation/distribution areas with greater significance. POC Brightness : Brightest (white) volume profile bar marks point of control - visual emphasis highlights the most critical price level within zone structure. Volume distribution shape, POC placement, delta composition, and touch count outweigh simple zone boundary reactions. Signal Logic & Visual Cues Volumetric Supply and Demand Zones presents zone interaction insights rather than discrete directional signals: Fresh Zone Formation : New supply or demand zone created when swing pivot followed by ATR-threshold impulse - suggests institutional footprint left behind, high-probability reversal area established. First Retest (Fresh → Tested) : Price returning to previously untouched zone triggers status change and touch increment - historically highest-probability reaction level as unfilled orders likely remain. POC Magnetic Behavior : Price gravitating toward white POC line during zone interaction - suggests institutional activity concentration level acting as support/resistance within broader zone. Volume Profile Asymmetry : Profile showing volume concentrated at zone edge versus center reveals base formation character - edge concentration suggests quick accumulation before impulse, center concentration indicates prolonged consolidation. Delta Divergence Patterns : Demand zones showing negative delta profile (red bars dominant) or supply zones showing positive delta (green bars) reveal weak zone formation - pressure composition conflicted with expected direction. Delta Confirmation Patterns : Demand zones with strong positive delta (green bars) or supply zones with strong negative delta (red bars) validate institutional conviction - pressure aligned with expected reversal direction. Excessive Touch Degradation : Touch count exceeding 3-4 interactions suggests zone weakening - repeated tests consume institutional orders, reducing reversal probability. Mitigation Events : Price closing beyond zone boundaries (or wicking through, based on settings) triggers zone deletion - invalidation confirms institutional levels failed, trend continuation likely. The primary value lies in volume-validated zone structure and delta composition analysis rather than simple boundary touches. Strategy Integration Volumetric Supply and Demand Zones fits within institutional footprint and order flow-aware trading approaches: Fresh Zone Reversal Entries : Enter counter-trend positions at first retest of fresh zones with strong delta confirmation - unfilled institutional orders provide high-probability reaction levels. POC-Precise Limit Orders : Place entries at POC line rather than zone edges - point of control represents maximum volume concentration, offering tighter stop placement and better risk/reward. Delta-Filtered Zone Selection : Prioritize demand zones showing positive net delta and supply zones showing negative net delta-aligned pressure composition validates institutional conviction. Volume Profile Distribution Analysis : Favor zones with tight volume concentration (profile bars clustered) over dispersed distribution - concentrated profiles suggest decisive institutional accumulation/distribution. Merge-Enhanced Conviction : Treat merged zones with higher volume/delta totals as stronger reversal candidates - combined statistics represent extended institutional activity periods. Touch Count Degradation Filtering : Reduce position sizing or avoid zones with 3+ touches - excessive interaction depletes institutional orders, weakening reversal probability. Trend Continuation via Mitigation : Enter breakout positions when price closes beyond supply zones (uptrend) or demand zones (downtrend) - mitigation confirms trend strength overwhelming institutional levels. Multi-Timeframe Zone Confluence : Apply higher-timeframe zones for macro structure, use lower-timeframe volume profile to identify precise entry levels within larger zones. Technical Implementation Details Core Engine : Pivot detection with symmetrical left/right confirmation, ATR-normalized impulse validation Zone Construction : Base period lookback with ATR-capped height normalization and time-based extension Volume Profile System : Proportional volume allocation across configurable rows with overlap percentage calculation Delta Engine : Close-open relationship classification separating buy/sell volume with net delta calculation per row POC Identification : Maximum volume row detection with visual emphasis rendering Merge Logic : Overlap detection with gap threshold, boundary expansion, and weighted statistic aggregation Visualization : Multi-element rendering (zone boxes, profile bars, delta bars, POC lines, info panels) with proportional sizing Performance Profile : Custom type system for zone/profile/delta management, efficient array-based storage with configurable zone limits Optimal Application Parameters Timeframe Guidance: 1 - 5 min : Micro-structure supply/demand for scalping with tight ATR multipliers and reduced lookback 15 - 60 min : Intraday institutional footprint zones with balanced profile row count and merge sensitivity 4H - Daily : Swing-level accumulation/distribution areas with extended lookback periods and wider merge gaps Weekly - Monthly : Macro institutional zones with maximum profile detail and extended zone persistence Suggested Baseline Configuration: Swing Length : 8 Impulse Size (ATR) : 1.2 Base Lookback Candles : 3 ATR Length : 14 Maximum Zone Height (ATR) : 4.0 Maximum Zones : 10 Extend Zones (bars) : 60 Merge Overlapping Zones : Enabled Merge Gap (ATR) : 0.3 Mitigation Type : Wick Profile Rows : 10 Profile Width (%) : 0.5 Show POC Line : Enabled Show Delta Profile : Enabled Delta Profile Width (%) : 0.35 Show Zone Info Box : Enabled These suggested parameters should be used as a baseline; their effectiveness depends on the asset's volatility profile, volume characteristics, and preferred zone sensitivity, so fine-tuning is expected for optimal performance. Parameter Calibration Notes Use the following adjustments to refine behavior without altering the core logic: Too many zones cluttering chart : Increase Swing Length (10 - 12) to demand stronger pivots, or increase Impulse Size multiplier (1.5 - 2.0) to require larger moves for zone validation. Missing significant reversal levels : Decrease Swing Length (5-6) for earlier pivot detection, or reduce Impulse Size (0.8 - 1.0) to capture smaller but valid base formations. Zones too large/tall : Reduce Maximum Zone Height ATR multiplier (2.5 - 3.0) to cap vertical size, or decrease Base Lookback Candles (1 - 2) for tighter base periods. Zones too small to be useful : Increase Base Lookback Candles (4 - 6) to encompass longer consolidation periods, or raise Maximum Zone Height (5.0 - 7.0) for taller zones. Profile bars too granular : Decrease Profile Rows (6 - 8) for coarser distribution showing major volume clusters only. Profile lacking detail : Increase Profile Rows (15 - 20) for finer resolution revealing subtle volume distribution nuances. Zones merging too aggressively : Decrease Merge Gap ATR multiplier (0.1 - 0.2) to require tighter overlap for merge qualification, or disable merging entirely. Related zones not combining : Increase Merge Gap (0.5 - 0.8) to allow merging of zones with larger separation distances. Zones invalidating prematurely : Switch Mitigation Type from "Wick" to "Close" to require closing violation rather than intrabar penetration. Zones persisting too long after breach : Switch Mitigation Type from "Close" to "Wick" for faster invalidation on initial penetration. Profile bars invisible : Increase Profile Width percentage (0.6 - 0.8) for longer bars, improving visibility on cluttered charts. Delta profile obscuring volume profile : Reduce Delta Profile Width (0.2 - 0.3) to prevent overlap, or disable delta display temporarily. Adjustments should be incremental and evaluated across multiple session types rather than isolated market conditions. Performance Characteristics High Effectiveness: Range-bound and mean-reverting markets where institutional zones provide reliable turning points Instruments with consistent volume characteristics where profile distribution reveals true accumulation/distribution Swing trading approaches targeting zone-to-zone reactions with defined risk parameters Reversal strategies seeking volume-validated entry levels rather than blind counter-trend positions Markets where delta proxy correlates well with actual order flow (trending volume instruments) Position trading benefiting from macro supply/demand structure with embedded volume context Reduced Effectiveness: Extremely low volume environments where profile distribution becomes unreliable and sparse News-driven or gapped markets where zones form/invalidate without normal volume accumulation patterns Highly trending markets where zones consistently mitigate without providing reversal opportunities Instruments with erratic volume patterns making delta decomposition and profile interpretation misleading Very high-frequency timeframes (seconds) where base formation periods too short for meaningful volume accumulation Integration Guidelines Confluence : Combine with BOSWaves structure, market profile, or traditional technical analysis for zone validation within broader context Volume Profile Respect : Trust POC levels and high-volume profile bars over arbitrary zone edges for entry/exit precision Delta Confirmation Priority : Favor zones where delta composition aligns with expected direction - positive delta in demand, negative delta in supply Fresh Zone Preference : Prioritize first retests of untouched zones over repeatedly tested areas with high touch counts Merge Recognition : Treat merged zones with elevated volume/delta statistics as higher-conviction institutional footprint areas Touch Count Filtering : Reduce position sizing or avoid zones after 3+ touches as institutional order depletion reduces effectiveness Mitigation Discipline : Exit zone-based positions decisively when price closes beyond boundaries, respecting invalidation signals Multi-Timeframe Structure : Apply higher-timeframe zones for swing structure, use lower-timeframe profiles for tactical entry refinement Disclaimer Volumetric Supply and Demand Zones is a professional-grade supply/demand zone and volume profile analysis tool. It uses volume-based delta proxy to estimate directional pressure but does not access true order book data or institutional trade information. Results depend on market conditions, volume reliability, ATR characteristics, parameter selection, and disciplined execution. Volume profile and delta calculations represent approximations based on close-open relationships and price overlap formulas, not actual bid/ask transactions. BOSWaves recommends deploying this indicator within a broader analytical framework that incorporates price structure, order flow context, and comprehensive risk management.

QuantumPips Session Trend StructureQuantumPips Session Trend Structure is an indicator built to help you read session structure and spot higher-quality breakout → retest opportunities when trend and momentum conditions agree. It does three main things: Maps sessions (Asia / London / New York) with live High/Low boxes Adds trend direction using EMA bias (50/200 + optional slope) Prints BUY/SELL labels only after a clean breakout + retest sequence, optionally filtered by volume, range expansion (ATR), and candle body strength Educational tool only — not financial advice. Always manage risk. What you’ll see on the chart Session boxes (structure) The indicator draws a box for each session and updates the session High/Low while the session is active. Default settings (Timezone Europe/London): Asia: 00:00–09:00 London: 08:00–17:00 New York: 13:00–22:00 Optional: vertical dotted lines at session starts. EMA bias (direction) Two EMAs are plotted: EMA Fast (50) EMA Slow (200) Bias is: Bullish: EMA50 above EMA200 (and optionally EMA50 rising) Bearish: EMA50 below EMA200 (and optionally EMA50 falling) This is designed to reduce counter-trend signals. The core idea (simple) Each major session often reacts to the previous session’s range. This script uses that concept by selecting a reference range: During London, reference = Asia High/Low During New York, reference = London High/Low During Asia (optional), reference = New York High/Low The panel shows Ref Range, which is just: Ref Range = Reference High − Reference Low Signal logic: Breakout → Retest (with confluence) A signal is only considered when you are inside a session you enabled (Asia/London/NY toggles). BUY (Long) Trend bias is Bullish Price closes above the reference High (breakout) Price returns to retest near the broken High (ATR tolerance) Optional: retest candle must close back up (confirm-close) Optional confirmations pass (volume / expansion / body) SELL (Short) Trend bias is Bearish Price closes below the reference Low (breakout) Price returns to retest near the broken Low (ATR tolerance) Optional: retest candle must close back down (confirm-close) Optional confirmations pass (volume / expansion / body) This approach is meant to avoid “first-touch” entries and focus on structured moves. Filters (optional, but useful) Volume Spike Filter Requires elevated participation: volume ≥ SMA(volume) × multiplier (Volume varies by market/data feed; use discretion on symbols where volume is not meaningful.) Range Expansion Filter (ATR) Requires a candle with enough “energy” to avoid weak breakouts: (high − low) ≥ ATR × range multiplier Strong Body Filter (optional) Filters wick-heavy candles around key levels: body % of candle range ≥ threshold Side Panel (Top Right) — how to read it Session Shows the active session: Asia / London / New York / Off EMA Bias Shows: Bullish / Bearish / Neutral Ref Range Shows the size of the reference session range being used for the current session: London uses Asia range NY uses London range Asia (optional) uses NY range Volume Shows status of the volume filter: High = passes Normal = fails Off = filter disabled Expansion Shows status of the ATR expansion filter: Yes = passes No = fails Off = filter disabled Body Shows status of the strong-body filter: Yes = passes No = fails Off = filter disabled Confluence Example Recommended starting settings If you want fewer, higher-quality setups: Enable London + New York Keep EMA bias ON Volume filter ON (1.2–1.5×) Expansion ON (0.8–1.0× ATR) Body filter optional (0.55–0.70) Confirm-close ON If you want more signals: Lower volume multiplier (1.1–1.2×) Lower expansion (0.6–0.8× ATR) Body filter OFF Best timeframes (TF) to use Best overall: 5m, 15m, 30m Best Pairs for Sessions: EURUSD, GBPUSD, GBPJPY, USDJPY, XAUUSD

Daily Bias Trade Manager [MarkitTick]💡 The Daily Bias Trade Manager is a sophisticated technical analysis suite designed to automate the identification of high-probability intraday setups based on liquidity concepts and structural shifts. By synthesizing Previous Day High/Low (PDH/PDL) interactions with momentum confirmation and strict risk management protocols, this tool assists traders in navigating the "Daily Bias." It moves beyond simple signal generation by offering a complete trade management visualization system, projecting entries, stop losses, and take-profit levels directly onto the chart in real-time. ✨ Originality and Utility This script distinguishes itself by integrating institutional price action theory—specifically Liquidity Sweeps and Change in State of Delivery (CISD)—with mechanical filtering. While many indicators simply highlight highs and lows, the Daily Bias Trade Manager validates these levels by analyzing what happens *after* price tests them. It solves a common problem for intraday traders: "Analysis Paralysis." By automating the detection of structure breaks (MSS) and Fair Value Gaps (FVG) following a sweep of daily liquidity, it provides an objective framework for entry. Furthermore, the built-in "Position Box" feature removes the guesswork from trade execution by instantly calculating risk-to-reward ratios and visualizing them, allowing traders to see the feasibility of a trade before execution. 🔬 Methodology and Concepts The core logic operates on a sequential detection model: Liquidity Identification: The script first plots the Previous Day High (PDH) and Previous Day Low (PDL). These are critical institutional reference points where stop-loss orders (liquidity) often reside. The Sweep: A "Sweep" is confirmed when price breaches a PDH/PDL but fails to sustain the breakout, closing back inside the previous day's range. This suggests a "Fake-out" or liquidity grab, often a precursor to a reversal. Change in State of Delivery (CISD): Following a sweep, the script monitors local market structure. It looks for a decisive close past a recent swing point (Swing High for shorts, Swing Low for longs) within a user-defined bar window. This confirms that the counter-trend move has momentum. Confluence Filtering: To reduce false positives, the engine applies optional filters: RVOL (Relative Volume): Ensures the sweep occurred on significant volume (Climax behavior). RSI Momentum: Verifies that momentum supports the reversal direction. Trend Filter: Uses a long-term EMA to ensure trades align with the broader market direction. Entry Model: Upon validation, the script calculates an entry at the close (or optionally at a Fair Value Gap), places a Stop Loss at the sweep extreme, and projects three Take Profit targets based on configurable R:R ratios. 🎨 Visual Guide The indicator uses a distinct color-coded system to keep the chart clean yet informative: ● Liquidity Levels & Sweeps Orange/Blue Lines: Represent the PDH (Previous Day High) and PDL (Previous Day Low). Teal Shaded Zones: Indicate a "Buy-Side Sweep" (Price took highs and rejected). Red Shaded Zones: Indicate a "Sell-Side Sweep" (Price took lows and rejected). ● Position Management Boxes When a signal triggers, a structured box appears: Solid Gray Line: The theoretical Entry Price. Solid Red Line: The Stop Loss (SL), typically placed at the swing high/low of the sweep. Dashed Blue Lines: Represent TP1, TP2, and TP3 targets based on Reward-to-Risk settings. Labels: Data tags on the right side of the box show exact price coordinates for Entry, SL, and Targets. ● Signals & Clouds Green "BUY" Labels: Appear below the bar when a bullish sweep and structural shift are confirmed. Red "SELL" Labels: Appear above the bar when a bearish sweep is validated. Yellow Clouds: Highlight Fair Value Gaps (FVG) used for entry confluence or retests. ● Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Dashboard A panel (default: Top Right) displays the status of up to three higher timeframes. Trend: Shows "BULL" or "BEAR" based on EMA alignment. Liquidity: Indicates if the timeframe is "Taking Buy Liq", "Taking Sell Liq", or "Inside Range". 📖 How to Use ● Bullish Reversal Setup Wait for price to drop below the Blue PDL Line. Look for a Red Sell-Side Sweep Zone to form, indicating price has rejected lower prices. Wait for the Green BUY Signal . This confirms a shift in structure (CISD) back to the upside. Observe the Position Box. If the Risk/Reward is favorable (targets are within reasonable reach), consider the trade. Optional: Use the "Dynamic Targets" setting to target the previous swing high instead of a fixed ratio. ● Bearish Reversal Setup Wait for price to rally above the Orange PDH Line. Look for a Teal Buy-Side Sweep Zone . Wait for the Red SELL Signal confirming the rejection. Ensure the dashboard shows alignment (e.g., Higher Timeframe Trend is Bearish) for higher probability. ● Trade Management Enable the "ATR Trailing Stop" in settings to have the Stop Loss line dynamically adjust as price moves in your favor, locking in potential gains. ⚙️ Inputs and Settings ● General & Display Show Daily Liquidity: Toggles the PDH/PDL lines. Max Signals/Zones: Limits the visual clutter by restricting historical shapes. ● Detection Logic Swing Detection Length: Controls the sensitivity of pivot points. Higher numbers = fewer, more significant swings. CISD Window: How many bars after a sweep are allowed for the structure shift to occur. Use FVG Entry: If true, the signal waits for a retest of a gap rather than entering immediately at the close. ● Filters Volume (RVOL): Requires the sweep candle volume to be X times larger than average. Trend Filter: Only allows Buy signals above the EMA and Sell signals below it. Session Filter: Restricts signals to specific hours (e.g., New York Killzone). ● Targets & Management Target R:R: Sets the multiplier for TP1, TP2, TP3 relative to the stop loss distance. Use Dynamic Targets: Targets structural liquidity (Previous Highs/Lows) instead of fixed math ratios. ATR Trailing Stop: Activates the trailing stop mechanism. 🔍 Deconstruction of the Underlying Scientific and Academic Framework This indicator is grounded in the principles of Market Microstructure and Mean Reversion theory . 1. Liquidity Pools & Stop Runs: Academic literature on market microstructure suggests that order flow clusters around obvious visual references (PDH/PDL). Large market participants often utilize this "resting liquidity" to fill large block orders with minimal slippage. The "Sweep" logic detects this absorption phase. 2. Volatility Breakout vs. Fake-out: The script differentiates between a genuine breakout and a mean-reverting "fake-out" by analyzing the Close relative to the Range . A close back within the prior day's range after a breach signifies a failure of auction in the new territory, statistically increasing the probability of a reversion to the mean (equilibrium). 3. Momentum Validation (RSI & RVOL): By integrating Relative Volume (RVOL) and RSI, the script applies statistical significance testing to the price action. High volume at a range extreme without price progress (the sweep) indicates "Stopping Volume" or absorption, a key concept in Volume Spread Analysis (VSA). 🙏 Gratitude I would like to express my gratitude to harry040708 for sharing the insightful idea that made this script possible. ⚠️ Disclaimer All provided scripts and indicators are strictly for educational exploration and must not be interpreted as financial advice or a recommendation to execute trades.

Daily Bias Panel (with MTF Toggle)Daily Bias Panel Documentation Overview The Daily Bias Panel is a TradingView indicator designed to provide a structured, multi factor assessment of market direction for intraday and swing traders. It consolidates several key bias components—Prior Day levels, VWAP, Overnight High/Low, Multi Timeframe Market Structure, and an Overall Bias—into a clean, compact table. A confidence meter summarizes the combined strength of all signals. This document explains each line item, the rules behind it, and how to interpret the panel. 1. Prior Day Bias Definition Compares the current price to the previous day’s high and low. Rules • Bullish (1): Close > Prior Day High • Bearish (-1): Close < Prior Day Low • Neutral (0): Price is between the prior high and low Interpretation This bias reflects whether the market is breaking out above or below the previous day’s range. It is a foundational directional signal. 2. VWAP Bias Definition Measures whether price is trading above or below the Volume Weighted Average Price. Rules • Bullish (1): Close > VWAP • Bearish (-1): Close < VWAP • Neutral (0): Price is at VWAP Interpretation VWAP is a widely used institutional benchmark. Trading above VWAP suggests buyers are in control; below VWAP suggests sellers dominate. 3. ONH / ONL Bias (Overnight High / Low) Definition Tracks the overnight session’s high and low (18:00–09:30 ET) and compares current price to those levels. Rules • Bullish (1): Close > Overnight High • Bearish (-1): Close < Overnight Low • Neutral (0): Price is inside the overnight range Interpretation ONH/ONL is extremely important for index futures (ES/NQ). Breaking ONH/ONL often signals strong directional intent at the RTH open. 4. Struct MTF (Market Structure Bias) Definition A weighted blend of market structure trends across multiple timeframes. Modes Swing Mode • 4H (50%) • 1H (30%) • 15M (20%) Intraday Mode • 1H (40%) • 15M (35%) • 5M (25%) Rules Each timeframe is classified as: • Bullish (1): Higher High + Higher Low • Bearish (-1): Lower High + Lower Low • Neutral (0): No clear structure The weighted average produces a final structure score. Interpretation This is your trend engine. It smooths noise and provides a stable directional backbone. 5. Overall Bias Definition A strict agreement filter between Prior Day Bias and VWAP Bias. Rules • Bullish (1): Both Prior Day and VWAP are bullish • Bearish (-1): Both are bearish • Neutral (0): Any disagreement Interpretation This prevents false positives by requiring alignment between two major bias components. 6. Confidence Score Definition A weighted blend of all bias components: • Prior Day (25%) • VWAP (25%) • ONH/ONL (20%) • MTF Structure (30%) Output A normalized score between -1.00 and +1.00.

MB-MACD## Description **MB-MACD** is a custom Pine Script indicator designed to enhance momentum analysis by combining a volume-based "Main Buy Ratio" (MB) calculation with a traditional MACD oscillator. The MB Ratio estimates institutional buying pressure by apportioning volume based on the candle's range and close position, providing a unique proxy for "smart money" flow. This smoothed MB value is then used as the source for MACD computation, allowing for divergence detection between price action, the MB line, and the MACD Histogram. Key features include: - **MB Line**: A histogram-style plot showing smoothed buy/sell ratio, colored bullishly (teal) or bearishly (pink) based on direction. - **MACD Histogram**: Standard MACD applied to the MB source, with optional smoothing. - **Divergence Detection**: Identifies bullish and bearish divergences on both the MB line and MACD Histogram, with configurable filters for momentum decay and zero-line alignment. - **Visualization Options**: Display divergence lines and labels in the indicator pane or synced as an overlay on the main chart for better context. - **Alerts**: Triggers for bullish or bearish divergences to notify users of potential reversal setups. This indicator is particularly useful for swing traders and momentum followers looking to spot hidden divergences that may signal trend reversals or continuations. It emphasizes risk management by highlighting where price and momentum decouple, but remember: divergences are probabilistic signals and should be confirmed with other tools. As this is a community-shared script, I encourage users to test it thoroughly and provide feedback. If you spot any bugs, calculation errors, or improvements (e.g., edge cases with low-volume symbols or performance issues on certain timeframes), please comment below or reach out—your input helps refine it for everyone! ## User Manual ### Introduction The **MB-MACD** indicator integrates volume analysis with MACD to detect divergences in price and momentum. The core innovation is the "Main Buy Ratio" (MB), which approximates buying vs. selling volume within each bar based on its range and close position. This MB value is smoothed and fed into a MACD calculation, enabling divergence scans on both the MB line and the resulting MACD Histogram. Divergences occur when price makes higher highs/lower lows, but the oscillator (MB or Histogram) fails to confirm—often signaling potential reversals. The script offers flexible display options, filters to reduce false positives, and alerts for real-time notifications. **Important Notes:** - This is not financial advice; use it for educational purposes and backtest on your symbols/timeframes. - Works best on liquid stocks or indices with reliable volume data (e.g., daily or higher timeframes). - Performance may vary on low-volume assets or during after-hours trading. - If you encounter issues (e.g., no divergences detected or rendering errors), check your chart settings and report them in the comments for community debugging. ### Inputs Explanation The inputs are grouped for ease of configuration. Adjust them via the indicator's settings panel in TradingView. #### Core Parameters - **Show MB Line** (Default: True): Enables/disables the MB Ratio histogram plot. - **Show MACD Histogram** (Default: True): Enables/disables the MACD line and histogram plots. - **MB Smoothing (SMA)** (Default: 10, Min: 1): Length for smoothing the raw MB Ratio using a Simple Moving Average (SMA). Higher values reduce noise but may lag. - **Pivot Lookback Length** (Default: 5, Min: 2): Bars to look back/forward for detecting price pivots (highs/lows) used in divergence logic. - **Max Lines Kept** (Default: 100, Min: 10): Limits the number of divergence lines/labels to prevent chart clutter. #### Display Settings - **Show Lines (Indicator Pane)** (Default: True): Draws divergence lines on the MB line in the indicator pane. - **Show Labels (Indicator Pane)** (Default: True): Adds labels (e.g., "L" for line divergence) at divergence points in the pane. - **Show Hist Divergence Lines** (Default: True): Draws dashed lines for MACD Histogram divergences in the pane. - **Show Hist Divergence Labels** (Default: True): Adds labels (e.g., "H" for histogram divergence) in the pane. - **Sync Lines to Main Chart (Overlay)** (Default: True): Mirrors divergence lines and labels onto the main price chart for context (slightly offset for visibility). #### Filters & Tolerance - **Peak Alignment Tolerance (Bars)** (Default: 5, Min: 0): Allows flexibility in matching oscillator peaks/valleys to price pivots (e.g., within ±5 bars). - **Max Divergence Distance (Bars)** (Default: 20, Min: 5): Maximum bars between two pivots for a valid divergence; prevents detecting overly distant signals. - **Enable Momentum Decay Filter** (Default: True): For Histogram divergences, requires the current peak/valley to have a smaller absolute value than the previous (indicating convergence/decay). - **Enable Zero-Side Filter** (Default: False): Ensures both peaks/valleys in a divergence are on the same side of the zero line (e.g., both positive or both negative). #### MACD Settings - **MACD Fast Length** (Default: 12): Fast EMA length for MACD. - **MACD Slow Length** (Default: 26): Slow EMA length for MACD. - **MACD Signal Length** (Default: 9): Smoothing length for the MACD signal line. - **MACD Source Smoothing** (Default: 3, Min: 1): Additional SMA smoothing applied to the MB Ratio before MACD calculation. ### How It Works 1. **MB Ratio Calculation**: For each bar, the script computes the position of the close within the high-low range (0-1). This scales the volume into "buy" and "sell" portions, then derives a net ratio (-100% to +100%). It's smoothed via SMA for the final MB line. 2. **MACD Application**: The (optionally smoothed) raw MB is used as the MACD source, producing a MACD line, signal line, and histogram. 3. **Pivot Detection**: Uses Pine's `ta.pivothigh`/`ta.pivotlow` to find price highs/lows over the lookback period. 4. **Divergence Scanning**: - **Bearish (on Highs)**: Price makes a higher high, but MB/Hist makes a lower high. - **Bullish (on Lows)**: Price makes a lower low, but MB/Hist makes a higher low (closer to zero). - Scans nearby bars for oscillator matches and applies filters. 5. **Rendering**: Lines/labels are drawn in the indicator pane or overlaid on the chart. Colors: Teal for bullish, Pink/Maroon for bearish. 6. **Cleanup**: Automatically removes old lines/labels to stay under the max limit. ### Interpreting the Outputs - **MB Line (Columns)**: Positive (teal) indicates net buying pressure; negative (pink) shows selling. Watch for crossovers above/below zero as momentum shifts. - **MACD Histogram (Area)**: Green/teal for positive momentum; red/maroon for negative. Widening bars suggest strengthening trends; narrowing indicates weakening. - **Divergence Lines/Labels**: - Solid lines: MB line divergences (thicker, labeled "L"). - Dashed lines: Histogram divergences (thinner, labeled "H"). - Bullish: Teal lines sloping up (potential bottom reversal). - Bearish: Pink lines sloping down (potential top reversal). - **Overlay on Chart**: Lines connect price pivots (or offset slightly for Histogram). Use this to visualize how divergences align with candlesticks. - **Zero Line**: Gray horizontal line; divergences filtered by side if enabled. **Example Usage**: - On a daily stock chart, enable overlays and watch for a bullish "L" or "H" label near a price low—could signal a buy if confirmed by volume breakout. - In a downtrend, bearish divergences on highs might warn of further downside. ### Alerts - **Bullish Divergence (L or H)**: Triggers on any detected bullish divergence (MB or Histogram). - **Bearish Divergence (L or H)**: Triggers on bearish divergences. - Set up via TradingView's alert menu: Select the indicator, choose the condition, and customize the message (e.g., includes ticker). ### Troubleshooting / Known Issues - **No Divergences Shown**: Increase "Peak Alignment Tolerance" or reduce filters. Ensure pivot length suits your timeframe (shorter for intraday). - **Too Many Lines/Labels**: Lower "Max Lines Kept" or increase "Max Divergence Distance" to filter distant signals. - **Performance on Low-Volume Symbols**: MB Ratio may be unreliable; test on high-volume assets first. - **Rendering Errors**: If lines don't appear, check chart zoom or ensure "force_overlay=true" isn't conflicting with other indicators. - **NaN/Undefined Values**: Rare on live data but possible in historical backtests; report with symbol/timeframe for fixes. ### Feedback and Contributions This script is open for community improvement! If you find bugs (e.g., false positives in divergences, calculation edge cases, or UI glitches), or have suggestions (like additional filters or visualizations), please share in the comments. Your feedback helps make it better—let's debug and enhance it together!

Gann Square of Nine: Planetary Degrees█ Gann Square of Nine: Planetary Degrees maps planetary positions onto Gann's Square of Nine grid, tracking where pivot highs and lows accumulate by planetary degree. Use this indicator to identify recurring degree patterns on the So9, determine whether pivots cluster around cardinal, diagonal, or other significant angles, and project when the planet will return to those degrees. Powered by the open-source BlueprintResearch Planetary Ephemeris library , which implements truncated VSOP87 (planets) and ELP2000 (Moon) series for high-accuracy celestial calculations entirely within Pine Script. █ FEATURES • Anchor Point System — Select any significant price pivot (high or low) as your reference point; all subsequent pivot tracking begins from this timestamp • All 10 celestial bodies — Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto • Geocentric or Heliocentric views — Toggle between Earth-centered (traditional) and Sun-centered perspectives • Interactive Square of Nine table — Visual grid displaying the Gann spiral pattern with highlighted pivot degrees • Automatic pivot detection — Configurable bar sensitivity to identify price pivots (symmetric left/right) • Pivot degree labeling — Each detected pivot displays the planet's ecliptic longitude (0-360°) at that moment • Target degree alerts — Define specific So9 degrees to watch; triggers alerts when the planet crosses them • Preset So9 angles — Quick selection of degrees along major So9 lines (0°, 45°, 90°, 135°, 180°, 225°, 270°, 315°) • Custom degree input — Enter any degrees as comma-separated or newline-separated values • Future degree projections — Scans up to 500 bars ahead and shows when the planet will reach each target degree • Retrograde indicator — Shows ℞ symbol with red text when planets are in apparent retrograde motion • So9 overlay tools — Plot 90° and 45° angle relationships from any entered degree █ HOW IT WORKS The Square of Nine Concept: Gann's Square of Nine is a spiral grid where numbers flow outward from the center (1) in a square spiral pattern. Key angle relationships (0°, 45°, 90°, etc.) align along specific diagonals and cardinal lines. When planetary degrees land on the same So9 position as significant price pivots, it suggests potential support/resistance levels. This Indicator: 1. User selects an "anchor" timestamp at a significant price pivot 2. The indicator calculates the selected planet's ecliptic longitude (0-360°) at each bar 3. Price pivots detected after the anchor are labeled with their planetary degrees 4. These degrees accumulate on the So9 grid, revealing patterns 5. Target degrees can be set to receive alerts when crossed 6. Future projections show when the planet will reach those target degrees █ HOW TO USE 1. Click on the anchor timestamp input and select a significant high or low pivot on your chart 2. Choose "High" or "Low" pivot type based on your anchor point 3. Select your planet from the dropdown 4. Choose Geocentric (traditional) or Heliocentric view 5. The So9 table appears showing accumulated pivot degrees highlighted 6. Set target degrees using presets or custom input to receive crossing alerts 7. Future projections appear as vertical lines with date/time labels 8. Use the So9 overlay tools to visualize angle relationships from specific degrees █ VISUAL GUIDE So9 Table Colors: • Anchor degree: White (⚓ symbol) • Current planet position: Planet's assigned color with symbol • Pivot Highs: Green background • Pivot Lows: Red background • Equal (both high and low): Orange background • Diagonal crosses: Blue background • Cardinal crosses: Red background • Target degrees: Yellow highlight Chart Labels: • Pivot High labels appear above the price with the degree • Pivot Low labels appear below the price with the degree • Future projection lines: Yellow (upcoming) or Gray (already crossed since anchor) █ SETTINGS OVERVIEW 1. Anchor Point — Set the starting pivot timestamp and type (High/Low) 2. Planet Selection — Choose celestial body and coordinate system 3. Target Degree Alerts — Configure which degrees to watch and receive alerts 4. Pivot Detection — Set bar sensitivity for pivot high/low detection and degree rounding precision 5. Visual Style — Customize colors and label sizes 6. So9 Grid Overlay — Enter a degree to visualize its angular relationships 7. So9 Table — Position, sizing, and color options for the grid 8. So9 Diagonals — Toggle and color the diagonal/cardinal cross highlights █ LIMITATIONS & ACCURACY This indicator uses optimized VSOP87 and ELP2000 series tailored for Pine Script performance. It delivers excellent accuracy for trading and analytical purposes. Expected Accuracy: • Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars: Within 1-10 arcseconds • Jupiter, Saturn: Within 10-30 arcseconds • Uranus, Neptune: Within 1-2 arcminutes • Pluto: Simplified Meeus method (valid 1900-2100) Degree Resolution: The So9 grid uses integer degrees (1-361). Planetary positions are rounded to the nearest whole degree for grid placement. Precise decimal degrees are retained for crossing calculations and alerts. Crossing Detection: Future projection lines and background highlights both point to the confirmation bar—the first bar where the crossing can be verified. Alerts also trigger on this bar. This ensures all visual elements align consistently: when the chart reaches a future projection line, that bar closes with the crossing confirmed and highlighted. █ CREDITS • Square of Nine grid visualization adapted from ThiagoSchmitz's "Gann Square of 9" (Feb 2023) • Ephemeris calculations via BlueprintResearch/lib_ephemeris open-source library

Asian Stop Hunt ModelSTOP HUNT MODEL – STRATEGY DESCRIPTION The Stop Hunt Model is designed to capture high-probability trades by targeting stop-loss liquidity from retail traders at buy-side and sell-side liquidity zones. The strategy focuses on identifying where liquidity is taken during the Asian session, waiting for a Change of Character (CHoCH), and then entering from unfilled orders (Balanced Price Range / Imbalance) in the direction of the dominant IPDA bias. The objective is to trade from engineered liquidity sweeps toward the next logical liquidity pool, while maintaining strict risk control. The model operates primarily on the 5-minute chart, with early confirmation on the 3-minute chart. The Asian Killzone is used to define the initial range, plotting its high and low. Higher-timeframe liquidity from Daily, 4H, and 1H charts is marked in advance to provide directional context. IPDA direction is determined using macro alignment such as global interest rate bias and long-term trend behavior. Once the Asian session concludes, price is expected to sweep either the high or low of the Asian range or the previous day’s high/low. After the liquidity sweep, the market must show a valid CHoCH, confirming a shift in internal structure. Entries are taken only after the formation and retest of a Balanced Price Range (BPR) created by overlapping imbalances. Trades are executed from these imbalance zones, targeting the next liquidity area, with stop loss placed at the most recent swing high or low. This model prioritizes precision over frequency, aiming for fewer trades with higher reward-to-risk ratios, typically 1:3 or better, and a strict daily risk cap. CHECKLIST – STOP HUNT MODEL 1.Mark Asian Killzone High and Low 2.Identify IPDA directional bias for the pair 3.Mark Buy-side and Sell-side liquidity from Daily, 4H, and 1H 4.Wait for a liquidity sweep (Asian High/Low or Previous Day High/Low) 5.Confirm a valid CHoCH 6.Identify a valid BPR (overlapping imbalance) 7.Enter trade from the BPR zone 8.Target the next liquidity pool 9.Place stop loss at the last swing high or low RULES – STOP HUNT MODEL STRATEGY > Always pre-mark Buy-side and Sell-side liquidity on 1D, 4H, and 1H > Asian Killzone must complete by 10:30 AM IST > After Asian close, mark 15-minute timeframe liquidity > Trade only after the market sweeps the Asian session high or low > Align trades with IPDA direction: > Bullish IPDA → Prefer sweep of Asian Low > Bearish IPDA → Prefer sweep of Asian High > CHoCH confirmation is mandatory: > Green CHoCH for bullish setups > Red CHoCH for bearish setups Setup conditions: 1. Bullish: CHoCH above price + BPR below price 2. Bearish: CHoCH below price + BPR above price 3.BPR must be formed by overlapping imbalances: 4.Red → Green for bullish 5.Green → Red for bearish 6.Look for V-shaped (bullish) or A-shaped (bearish) candle behavior 7.Entry only on imbalance retest — no chase entries 8.Targets must be killzone extremes or next liquidity zone 9.Stop loss must always be at the last swing high or low 10.No manual exits if aiming for 1:3 RR 11.If price sweeps both sides or no clean sweep occurs → No Trade 12.Trade less, execute cleaner setups 13.Daily target: 1% maximum

Quantum Candle Scanner [JOAT] Quantum Candle Scanner - Advanced Multi-Pattern Recognition System Introduction and Purpose Quantum Candle Scanner is an open-source overlay indicator that detects multiple candlestick patterns including engulfing patterns, kicker patterns, inside bar setups, momentum candles, and higher-high/lower-low sequences. The core problem this indicator solves is that traders often miss patterns because they're looking for only one type. Different patterns work better in different market conditions. This indicator addresses that by scanning for five distinct pattern types simultaneously, giving traders a comprehensive view of price action signals. Why These Five Pattern Types Work Together Each pattern type identifies different market behavior: 1. Engulfing Patterns - Classic reversal signals where current candle completely engulfs the previous candle. Best for identifying potential turning points. 2. Kicker Patterns - Strong reversal signals with gap confirmation. The current candle opens beyond the previous candle's open with opposite direction. Best for identifying high-momentum reversals. 3. Inside Bar Patterns - Consolidation breakout signals where a candle's range is contained within the previous candle, followed by a breakout. Best for identifying compression before expansion. 4. Momentum Candles - Identifies the largest body candle over a lookback period. Best for spotting institutional activity. 5. HH/HL and LH/LL Sequences - Three-bar structure patterns showing trend continuation. Best for confirming trend direction. How the Detection Works Engulfing Pattern: bool engulfBullBase = open <= math.min(close , open ) and close >= math.max(close , open ) and isBullish(0) and getBodyPct(0) > bodyMinPct Kicker Pattern: bool kickerBull = isBearish(1) and isBullish(0) and open > open and low > low and getBodyPct(0) > 40 and getBodyPct(1) > 40 Inside Bar: bool insideBarSetup = low < low and high > high bool insideBarBull = insideBarSetup and isBullish(0) HH/HL Sequence: bool hhhlSeq = high > high and low > low and high > high and low > low and close > close Optional Filters ATR Filter - Only shows patterns where candle body exceeds ATR (strong candles only) Body Minimum % - Requires minimum body percentage for engulfing patterns Close Beyond Prior H/L - Requires engulfing candle to close beyond prior high/low Dashboard Information Engulfing - Total engulfing patterns detected Kicker - Kicker pattern count Inside Bar - Inside bar breakout count HH/LL Seq - Structure sequence count Total - Combined pattern count How to Use This Indicator For Reversal Trading: 1. Look for engulfing or kicker patterns at key support/resistance 2. Confirm with HH/HL or LH/LL sequence breaking 3. Enter with stop beyond the pattern For Breakout Trading: 1. Identify inside bar setups (consolidation) 2. Enter on breakout candle in direction of break 3. Use the inside bar range for stop placement For Trend Confirmation: 1. Use HH/HL sequences to confirm uptrend structure 2. Use LH/LL sequences to confirm downtrend structure 3. Momentum candles indicate institutional participation Input Parameters Detect Engulfing/Kicker/Inside Bar/Momentum/HHLL (all true) - Toggle each pattern type Min Body % for Engulfing (0) - Minimum body percentage ATR Filter (false) - Only show strong candles Engulf Must Close Beyond Prior H/L (true) - Stricter engulfing definition Compact Mode (false) - Shorter labels for cleaner charts Timeframe Recommendations 1H-Daily: Best for reliable pattern detection 15m-30m: More patterns but higher noise Use Compact Mode on lower timeframes Limitations Pattern detection is mechanical and does not consider context Not all patterns lead to successful trades Kicker patterns are rare but powerful Inside bar breakouts can fail (false breakouts) Open-Source and Disclaimer This script is published as open-source under the Mozilla Public License 2.0 for educational purposes.

SMC Market Structure (HH/HL/LH/LL + BOS/CHoCH/MSS)SMC Market Structure (HH/HL/LH/LL + BOS/CHoCH/MSS) is a clean price-action / Smart Money Concepts market structure tool designed to automatically identify and label key structural events on the chart: Swing structure points: HH, HL, LH, LL Continuation confirmations: BOS (Break of Structure) Early reversal warnings: CHoCH (Change of Character) Stronger reversal signals: MSS (Market Structure Shift) using a displacement filter The script is built to remain visually tidy: it draws simple horizontal structure lines at the broken swing level and prints small abbreviations (BOS / CHoCH / MSS) directly on the chart without cluttering candles or adding heavy panels. What the Indicator Detects 1) Swing Points (HH / HL / LH / LL) Swings are detected using confirmed pivots (left/right “Swing length” bars). HH (Higher High): a swing high above the previous swing high LH (Lower High): a swing high below the previous swing high HL (Higher Low): a swing low above the previous swing low LL (Lower Low): a swing low below the previous swing low These labels help define the market’s active structure: Bullish structure: HH + HL sequence Bearish structure: LL + LH sequence Range / consolidation: mixed swing progression 2) BOS (Break of Structure) – Trend Continuation A BOS prints when price breaks the most recent swing level in the direction of the current structure: In a bullish market state → break above the most recent swing high In a bearish market state → break below the most recent swing low This is typically treated as confirmation that the existing trend is continuing. 3) CHoCH (Change of Character) – Early Reversal Signal A CHoCH prints on the first break against the current structure: In a bullish market state → break below the most recent swing low In a bearish market state → break above the most recent swing high CHoCH is intended as an early warning that the market may be transitioning into a new directional bias. 4) MSS (Market Structure Shift) – Stronger Reversal via Displacement MSS is treated as a “strong CHoCH” and requires a decisive, displacement-style candle at the break. To qualify as MSS, the script requires: A break against structure with a CLOSE break, and A displacement candle where: Candle body > ATR × Displacement Multiplier This helps filter out shallow wicks or minor liquidity grabs and highlights shifts that show stronger participation and momentum. How the Indicator Draws on the Chart When a BOS / CHoCH / MSS occurs: A horizontal line is drawn from the swing point to the break bar at the broken level. A small abbreviation label (BOS / CHoCH / MSS) is placed either: In the middle of the line segment, or On the break bar (selectable) Swing labels (HH/HL/LH/LL) are optional and can be disabled for a cleaner “event-only” layout. Inputs & Settings Swing Length (Pivot Left/Right) Controls how sensitive the swing detection is. Lower values (3–5): more structure points, more signals Higher values (8–14): fewer, cleaner swings (better for higher timeframes) Break Confirmation (Wick vs Close) Wick: break triggers when the candle’s wick crosses the swing level Close: break triggers only when the candle closes beyond the swing level Many SMC traders prefer Wick for detecting liquidity runs and early breaks, while others prefer Close to reduce false signals. MSS Displacement Filter ATR Length: ATR calculation period Displacement Multiplier: Minimum body size = ATR × multiplier Higher multiplier = fewer MSS signals, but stronger quality threshold. Display Toggles Show/Hide Swing Labels (HH/HL/LH/LL) Show/Hide BOS, CHoCH, MSS Optional EQH/EQL labeling (equal highs/lows) Visual Controls Bullish / bearish structure colors Line width / style Text offset (in ticks) to keep labels neat above/below level Maximum structure objects to keep on screen (prevents object-limit issues) Recommended Usage Trend Following Use HH/HL or LL/LH progression to define the trend. Wait for BOS to confirm continuation. Use BOS levels as: Bias confirmation Potential retest zones Risk reference for stop placement Reversal / Shift Detection Identify prevailing structure (bullish or bearish). Watch for CHoCH as the first sign of a possible reversal. Treat MSS as a stronger “shift” event (displacement + close break), often suitable for: Changing directional bias Switching from pullback trading to reversal continuation setups Multi-Timeframe Workflow (Common SMC Method) Higher timeframe (HTF): use swings and BOS to define macro bias Lower timeframe (LTF): use CHoCH/MSS to time entries and manage risk Confirm entries with your preferred tools (order blocks, FVGs, liquidity pools, session timing, etc.) Notes & Limitations This script uses confirmed pivots, so swing labels appear only after the swing is fully formed (after Swing length bars). This avoids repainting swing points. BOS/CHoCH/MSS events are derived from the most recent confirmed swing levels. MSS requires a close break and displacement threshold even if “Wick” breaks are enabled for other events (by design, to keep MSS strict). Best Settings by Timeframe (General Guide) Scalping (1–5m): Swing length 3–5, Wick breaks, MSS multiplier 1.2–1.8 Intraday (15m–1h): Swing length 5–8, Wick or Close, MSS multiplier 1.5–2.0 Swing trading (4h–1D): Swing length 8–14, Close breaks, MSS multiplier 1.8–2.5

Global Sessions Pro NY/London/Tokyo - O/C/H/LGLOBAL SESSIONS PRO — NY / LONDON / TOKYO Session Opens, Highs, Lows, Midpoints, Closes, Ranges & Killzones OVERVIEW Global Sessions Pro is a comprehensive session-mapping indicator designed for traders who rely on market structure, session context, and time-based behavior. The indicator automatically plots New York, London, and Tokyo sessions, including: • Session Open, High, Low, Midpoint, and Close • Prior session levels projected forward • Session range boxes • Right-side labeled price levels (clearly identified) • Stacked session summary labels (no overlap) • Optional killzones and overlap windows • Breakout alerts (prior or current session levels) The script is fully timezone-aware, DST-safe, and works on any chart timeframe. KEY FEATURES SESSION MAPPING For each session (NY / London / Tokyo), the indicator can display: • Open • High • Low • Midpoint (High + Low) / 2 • Close Each level is drawn with its own horizontal line and optional right-side label, so there is never confusion about which line represents which level. SESSION RANGE BOXES Optional shaded boxes highlight the true session range as it develops in real time. These are useful for visualizing: • Compression vs expansion • Relative session volatility • Strength or weakness between sessions Opacity and visibility are fully configurable. RIGHT-SIDE LEVEL LABELS Each session level can be labeled on the right edge of the chart, showing: • Session name (NY / Lon / Tok) • Level type (O / H / L / M / C) • Optional price value Examples: NY H: 18234.25 Lon L: 18098.50 Tok M: 18142.75 This eliminates ambiguity when multiple session levels overlap or share similar colors. SESSION SUMMARY LABELS (AUTO-STACKED) At the top of each session range, an optional summary label displays: • Session name • Open / High / Low / Close • Total range (points) • Range in ticks • ATR multiple Summary labels are automatically stacked vertically using ATR-based or tick-based spacing, preventing overlap even when multiple sessions occur close together. PRIOR SESSION LEVELS The indicator can project prior session levels into the next session, including: • Prior High and Low • Optional prior Open, Close, and Midpoint These levels are commonly used for: • Support and resistance • Liquidity sweeps • Mean reversion • Failed breakouts Projection length is configurable and safely capped to comply with TradingView drawing limits. KILLZONES AND SESSION OVERLAPS Optional background shading highlights key institutional windows: • London Open • New York Open • London / New York overlap These zones help identify high-probability volatility windows and time-based trade filters. All killzones respect the selected session timezone basis. ALERTS Built-in alerts are available for: • Break of prior session high • Break of prior session low • Break of current session high • Break of current session low Alerts can be configured to trigger on wick or close. Alert logic is written using precomputed crossover detection to ensure historical consistency and avoid missed or false alerts. TIMEZONE AND SESSION HANDLING (IMPORTANT) SESSION TIME BASIS OPTIONS The indicator supports three session-time modes: Market Local (DST-aware) – Recommended • New York uses America/New_York • London uses Europe/London • Tokyo uses Asia/Tokyo • Automatically adjusts for daylight saving time UTC (Fixed) • Sessions are interpreted strictly in UTC • Best for crypto or non-DST workflows • Requires manual adjustment during DST changes Custom Timezone • Define a single custom timezone for all sessions This ensures sessions display correctly regardless of the chart’s timezone. DEFAULT SESSION TIMES (Default values assume Market Local (DST-aware) mode) Tokyo: 09:00 – 15:00 London: 08:00 – 16:30 New York: 09:30 – 16:00 These defaults are optimized for cash and index trading. FX traders may adjust session windows as needed. BEST USE CASES This indicator is particularly effective for: • Index futures (ES, NQ, RTY, DAX, FTSE) • Forex session-based strategies • Time-based breakout systems • Liquidity sweep and mean-reversion models • London Open and New York Open trading • Multi-session market context analysis PERFORMANCE AND SAFETY NOTES • All future-drawn objects are capped to comply with TradingView limits • Crossover logic is evaluated every bar to prevent calculation drift • Old session drawings are automatically culled to reduce chart clutter • Works on all intraday and higher timeframes RECOMMENDED SETTINGS For most traders: • Session Time Basis: Market Local (DST-aware) • Show Open / High / Low / Midpoint: ON • Prior Session Levels: ON • Summary Labels: ON • Killzones: ON • Alerts: ON (Close-based) FINAL NOTES This indicator is designed to provide objective session structure without opinionated trade signals. It works best as a context layer combined with your own execution rules, confirmations, and risk management. If you trade time, structure, and liquidity, this script provides the framework.

Daily Candle Bias Backtesting Stats @MaxMaserati This indicator, is a powerful backtesting and probability tool designed to quantify the "follow-through" of specific candle types across different market sessions. It identifies specific price action setups and tracks whether price hits a "Target" (continuation) or an "Invalidation" (reversal) first, providing real-time win rates for your favorite sessions. The Candle Bias Stats indicator automatically categorizes every candle based on the MMM candle bias and tracks their historical success rate. It calculates how often a candle's high/low is broken before its opposite end is touched. By breaking this data down into sessions (Asian, London, NY), it identifies high-probability "time-of-day" windows where specific price action setups are most reliable. MMM CANDLE LOGIC Bullish Expansion & Breakout Signatures Bullish Body Close Plus (BuBC Plus): Represents strong bullish momentum where price closes above the previous high and near its own top, signaling that buyers are in complete control. Bullish Body Close Minus (BuBC Minus): Indicates weak bullish momentum; while the price closes above the previous high, a long top wick shows sellers pushed back, suggesting a potential retest of the previous high. Bearish Expansion & Breakout Signatures Bearish Body Close Plus (BeBC Plus): A very strong bearish signal where price closes below the previous low and near its own bottom, indicating sellers are dominant. Bearish Body Close Minus (BeBC Minus): Signifies weak bearish momentum; the price breaks the previous low but finishes with a long bottom wick as buyers push back, often leading to a retest of the old ceiling. Bullish Reversal & Trap Signatures (Affinity) Bullish Affinity Plus (BuAF Plus): A strong bullish reversal where a new low is made, but sellers hit a wall and get trapped, causing price to finish near its top with a long bottom wick. Bullish Affinity Minus (BuAF Minus): A weak bullish bounce where a new low is made and price finishes back inside the previous range, but buyers lack the energy for a significant move. Bearish Reversal & Trap Signatures (Affinity) Bearish Affinity Plus (BeAF Plus): A strong bearish reversal; buyers are trapped after making a new high, and price finishes near its bottom with a long top wick. Bearish Affinity Minus (BeAF Minus): A weak bearish drop where sellers stop the rise but lack the energy to push price significantly lower. Neutral & Volatility Signatures Close Inside Bullish (CI•BuAF): Bullish neutral state where price stays inside the previous candle’s range but finishes in the top half, indicating buyers are slightly more active. Close Inside Bearish (CI•BeAF): Bearish neutral state where price remains inside the previous box and finishes in the bottom half. Seek & Destroy Bullish (S&D•BuAF): Bullish volatility characterized by price moving above and below the previous candle before buyers win the battle and close price near the top. Seek & Destroy Bearish (S&D•BeAF): Bearish volatility where sellers win a high-chaos battle, closing price near the bottom after sweeping both sides of the previous candle. H4 CANDLE EXAMPLE Deep Dive: Analysis of the 4H Statistics The image presents a comprehensive backtest of 4,999 total candles from September 2022 to December 2025. Here is the breakdown of what the interface is telling us: 1. The Strategy: Target vs. Invalidation The indicator tracks BuBC (Bullish Body Close) and BeBC (Bearish Body Close). The Target: For a Bullish candle, the target is the High. For a Bearish candle, it is the Low. The Invalidation: The opposite end of the candle (the Low for Bullish, the High for Bearish). The Goal: To see which level is touched first in the subsequent bars. 2. Global Performance (The Top Right Table) Looking at the BuBC (1402 samples) section: Target First (67.8%): In nearly 7 out of 10 cases, once a 4H candle closes "bullish" (breaking the previous high), the price continues higher to break its own high before it ever returns to take out its own low. Both Hit (17.7%): This is a critical metric. It represents "Stop Runs" or "Wicks" where price hits the target but also hits the invalidation within the same tracking period. Efficiency (1.3 Bars): This tells us the "follow-through" is almost immediate. If the trade doesn't work within 1 or 2 candles, the statistical edge drops off significantly. 3. The Session Breakdown (The Bottom Left Table) This is where the "Edge" is found. Not all hours of the day are created equal. Asian Late (02:00-06:00) – The "Star" Performer: With a 72.9% Target rate, this is labeled "BEST." It has the lowest "Both%" (6.5%), meaning moves during these hours are incredibly "clean." If a setup forms here, price usually moves directly to the target without looking back. London Open & Overlap (06:00-14:00): These sessions maintain a high win rate (approx. 70%). This suggests that the European session provides reliable trend continuation for the S&P 500. NY Session (14:00-18:00) – The "Trap" Zone: This is labeled "WORST" for a reason. While the win rate is basically a coin flip (49.6%), the Both% spikes to 36.7%. This means that even if you are right about the direction, the market is highly likely to "sweep" your stop loss before going to the target. It is the most volatile and "fake-out" prone time for this specific setup. Summary of the Data The statistics show that the S&P 500 4H Candle Bias is a highly reliable trend-following indicator, provided you trade it at the right time. The data suggests a clear three-step logic: Directional Edge: Both Bullish and Bearish body closes have a natural ~67% probability of continuation. Timing is Everything: Trading during the Late Asian and London sessions increases your probability of success to over 70% with very low risk of a "fake-out." Risk Warning: Avoid "Body Close" breakout strategies during the NY Mid-day (14:00-18:00). The statistics prove that this window is dominated by "Seek and Destroy" price action, where price is mathematically likely to hit both your target and your stop, usually hitting the stop first.

Trend Break Targets [MarkitTick]Trend Break Targets Trend Break Targets is a technical analysis tool designed to assist traders in identifying trendline breakouts and projecting potential price targets based on market geometry. Unlike fully automated indicators that guess trendlines, this tool provides you with precise control by allowing you to manually Pivot Point the trendline to specific points in time, while automating the complex math of target projection and structure mapping. Theoretical Basis & Concepts This indicator is grounded in classic technical analysis principles found in foundational trading literature. It automates the following methodology: Drawing a trend line between two key points to represent dynamic support or resistance. Identifying a breakout when the price closes above or below this line, potentially signaling a change in trend. Calculating a price target by measuring the vertical distance between the breakout line and the last high/low (pivot), then projecting that same distance in the direction of the breakout. This concept is based on methods and "Measured Move" theories explained in classic books such as "Technical Analysis of Stock Trends" by Edwards & Magee, "Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets" by John Murphy, and in Thomas Bulkowski's Price Pattern Studies. How It Works Pivot Pointed Trendline Construction The script draws a trendline between two user-defined points in time (Start Date and End Date). It calculates the slope between these points and extends the line infinitely to the right, allowing you to define the exact structure (e.g., a resistance trendline on a wedge). Breakout Detection The script monitors the "Price Source" (High, Low, or Close) relative to the extended trendline. A Bullish Breakout (BC) occurs when the Close crosses above a bearish trendline. A Bearish Breakout (BC) occurs when the Close crosses below a bullish trendline. Dynamic Target Projection (The Math) Upon a confirmed breakout, the script automatically calculates three distinct targets by identifying the most significant "Swing Point" (Pivot) prior to the breakout. Distance (D): The vertical distance between the Trendline and the Pivot Price at the specific bar where the pivot occurred. Target 1 (T1): The Breakout Price +/- (Distance × 1.0). This represents a classic 1:1 measured move. Target 2 (T2): The Breakout Price +/- (Distance × 1.618). Based on the Golden Ratio extension. Target 3 (T3): The Breakout Price +/- (Distance × 2.618). Market Structure (CHOCH) The script includes an optional Change of Character (CHOCH) module. This runs independently of the trendline logic, identifying local Swing Highs and Swing Lows based on the "Swing Detection Length." It plots dashed lines and labels to visualize immediate shifts in market structure. How to Use This Tool This is an interactive tool that requires user input to define the setup. Identify a Setup: Locate a clear trend, wedge, or flag pattern on your chart. Set Pivot Points: Go to the Indicator Settings. Input the exact Start Date and End Date corresponding to the two main touches of your trendline. Monitor for Breakout: The script will extend the line. Wait for a "BC" label to appear. Trade Management: Once "BC" prints, the T1, T2, and T3 lines will instantly render. These can be used as potential take-profit zones or areas to tighten stop-losses. Settings & Configuration Indicator Settings Start/End Date: The timestamp Pivot Points for your trendline. Price Source: Determines what price (High or Low) Pivot Points the line and triggers the breakout. Pivot Left/Right: Adjusts the sensitivity for finding the "Pivot Before Break" used for target calculations. Extend Target Line: How far forward the target lines are drawn. Visual Style Colors: Fully customizable colors for the Trendline, Breakout Labels, and each Target level (T1, T2, T3). Gold Bullish Reversal This analysis dissects a confirmed bullish reversal on Gold using a custom Trend Break system. The setup identifies a transition from a bearish corrective phase to bullish momentum, validated by a structural break and a geometric target projection. Trend Identification (The Pivot Points) The descending white trendline serves as the primary dynamic resistance, defining the bearish correction. Pivot Points: The line is drawn connecting two significant swing highs, marked by Label 1 and Label 2. Logic: These points represent the "lower highs" characteristic of the previous downtrend. As long as price remained below this trajectory, the bearish bias was intact. The Trigger: Breakout & Confirmation The transition occurs at the candle marked BC (Breakout Candle). Breakout Criteria: The indicator logic dictates that a signal is only valid when the bar closes above the trendline. This filters out intraday wicks and ensures genuine buyer commitment. CHOCH Confluence: Immediately following the breakout, a CHOCH (Change of Character) label appears. This signals a shift in market structure, indicating that the internal lower-high/lower-low sequence has been violated, adding probability to the reversal. Target Projection: The Measured Move The vertical green lines (T1, T2) represent profit objectives derived from the depth of the prior move. The logic calculates the distance between the breakout line and the lowest pivot prior to the break. T1 (Standard Target): This is a 1:1 projection of the pre-breakout volatility. We see price action initially stalling near this level, confirming it as a zone of interest. T2 (Golden Ratio Extension): The second target is calculated as the initial distance multiplied by 1.618 (Fibonacci Golden Ratio). The chart shows the price rallying aggressively through T1 to tap the T2 zone, often considered an exhaustion or major take-profit level in harmonic extensions. Conclusion Gold has successfully invalidated the 4-hour bearish trendline. The confluence of a confirmed close above resistance (BC) and a structural shift (CHOCH) provided a high-probability long setup. The price has now fulfilled the T2 (1.618) extension, suggesting traders should watch for consolidation or a reaction at this key Fibonacci resistance level. Bearish Trendline Breakdown The image displays a Bearish Trendline Breakdown on the Gold (XAUUSD) 4-hour chart. The indicator is actually functioning in "Low" mode here (connecting swing lows to form support), which triggers the bearish logic found in the code. Here is the step-by-step breakdown: The Setup: Pivot Points & Trendline Visual: The Blue Labels "1" and "2" connected by a white diagonal line. Code Logic: These are the user-defined start and end points. Pivot Point 1 (startDate): The starting pivot of the trendline. Pivot Point 2 (endDate): The ending pivot. Trendline: The code draws a line between these two points and extends it to the right (extend.right). In this specific image, the line acts as a Support Trendline. The Trigger: Break Candle (BC) Visual: The Red Label "BC" appearing just below the white trendline. Code Logic: This is the execution signal. The code detects a "Down Break" (dnBreak) because the Price Source was likely set to "Low" and the candle's Close was lower than the Trendline Price at that specific bar (close < currLinePrice). This confirms the support level has been breached. The Projection: Targets (T1 & T2) Visual: The Green Labels "T1" and "T2" with dotted horizontal lines projected downward. Code Logic: These are profit targets based on a "Measured Move." Pivot Calculation: The script looks back for a recent "Pivot High" (the peak before the crash) to calculate the volatility/distance (dist) between that peak and the trendline. T1 (Conservative): The price is projected downward by 1x that distance (currLinePrice - dist). T2 (Extended): The price is projected downward by 1.618x that distance (Golden Ratio extension). Market Context: CHOCH Visual: The small Red/Orange "CHOCH" labels appearing above the price action. Code Logic: This is a secondary confirmation system running independently of the trendline. It detects a Change of Character (structural shift). The red labels indicate a "Bearish CHOCH," meaning the price broke below a significant prior swing low (last_swing_low). This supports the bearish bias of the trendline break. Disclaimer This tool is for educational and technical analysis purposes only. Breakouts can fail (fake-outs), and past geometric patterns do not guarantee future price action. Always manage risk and use this tool in conjunction with other forms of analysis.

Fair Value Gap Signals [Kodexius]Fair Value Gap Signals is an advanced market structure tool that automatically detects and tracks Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), evaluates the quality of each gap, and highlights high value reaction zones with visual metrics and signal markers. The script is designed for traders who focus on liquidity concepts, order flow and mean reversion. It goes beyond basic FVG plotting by continuously monitoring how price interacts with each gap and by quantifying three key aspects of each zone: -Entry velocity inside the gap -Volume absorption during tests -Structural integrity and depth of penetration The result is a dynamic, information rich visualization of which gaps are being respected, which are being absorbed, and where potential reversals or continuations are most likely to occur. All visual elements are configurable, including the maximum number of visible gaps per direction, mitigation method (close or wick) and an ATR based filter to ignore insignificant gaps in low volatility environments. 🔹 Features 🔸 Automated Fair Value Gap Detection The script detects both bullish and bearish FVGs based on classic three candle logic: Bullish FVG: current low is strictly above the high from two bars ago Bearish FVG: current high is strictly below the low from two bars ago 🔸 ATR Based Gap Filter To avoid clutter and low quality signals, the script can ignore very small gaps using an ATR based filter. 🔸Per Gap State Machine and Lifecycle Each gap is tracked with an internal status: Fresh: gap has just formed and has not been tested Testing: price is currently trading inside the gap Tested: gap was tested and left, waiting for a potential new test Rejected: price entered the gap and then rejected away from it Filled: gap is considered fully mitigated and no longer active This state machine allows the script to distinguish between simple touches, multiple tests and meaningful reversals, and to trigger different alerts accordingly. 🔸 Visual Ranking of Gaps by Metrics For each active gap, three additional horizontal rank bars are drawn on top of the gap area: Rank 1 (Vel): maximum entry velocity inside the gap Rank 2 (Vol): relative test volume compared to average volume Rank 3 (Dpt): remaining safety of the gap based on maximum penetration depth These rank bars extend horizontally from the creation bar, and their length is a visual score between 0 and 1, scaled to the age of the gap. Longer bars represent stronger or more favorable conditions. 🔸Signals and Rejection Markers When a gap shows signs of rejection (price enters the gap and then closes away from it with sufficient activity), the script can print a signal label at the reaction point. These markers summarize the internal metrics of the gap using a tooltip: -Velocity percentage -Volume percentage -Safety score -Number of tests 🔸 Flexible Mitigation Logic (Close or Wick) You can choose how mitigation is defined via the Mitigation Method input: Close: the gap is considered filled only when the closing price crosses the gap boundary Wick: a full fill is detected as soon as any wick crosses the gap boundary 🔸 Alert Conditions -New FVG formed -Price entering a gap (testing) -Gap fully filled and invalidated -Rejection signal generated 🔹Calculations This section summarizes the main calculations used under the hood. Only the core logic is covered. 1. ATR Filter and Gap Size The script uses a configurable ATR length to filter out small gaps. First the ATR is computed: float atrVal = ta.atr(atrLength) Gap size for both directions is then measured: float gapSizeBull = low - high float gapSizeBear = low - high If useAtrFilter is enabled, gaps smaller than atrVal are ignored. This ties the minimum gap size to the current volatility regime. 2. Fair Value Gap Detection The basic FVG conditions use a three bar structure: bool fvgBull = low > high bool fvgBear = high < low For bullish gaps the script stores: -top as low of the current bar -bottom as high For bearish gaps: -top as high of the current bar -bottom as low This defines the price range that is considered the imbalance area. 3. Depth and Safety Score Depth measures how far price has penetrated into the gap since its creation. For each bar, the script computes a currentDepth and updates the maximum depth: float currentDepth = 0.0 if g.isBullish if l < g.top currentDepth := g.top - l else if h > g.bottom currentDepth := h - g.bottom if currentDepth > g.maxDepth g.maxDepth := currentDepth The safety score expresses how much of the gap remains intact: float depthRatio = g.maxDepth / gapSize float safetyScore = math.max(0.0, 1.0 - depthRatio) safetyScore near 1: gap is mostly untouched safetyScore near 0: gap is mostly or fully filled 4. Velocity Metric Velocity captures how aggressively price moves inside the gap. It is based on the body to range ratio of each bar that trades within the gap and rewards bars that move in the same direction as the gap: float barRange = h - l float bodyRatio = math.abs(close - open) / barRange float directionBonus = 0.0 if g.isBullish and close > open directionBonus := 0.2 else if not g.isBullish and close < open directionBonus := 0.2 float currentVelocity = math.min(bodyRatio + directionBonus, 1.0) The gap keeps track of the strongest observed value: if currentVelocity > g.maxVelocity g.maxVelocity := currentVelocity This maximum is later used as velScore when building the velocity rank bar. 5. Volume Accumulation and Volume Score While price is trading inside a gap, the script accumulates the traded volume: if isInside g.testVolume += volume It also keeps track of the number of tests and the volume at the start of the first test: if g.status == "Fresh" g.status := "Testing" g.testCount := 1 g.testStartVolume := volume An average volume is computed using a 20 period SMA: float volAvg = ta.sma(volume, 20) The expected volume is approximated as: float expectedVol = volAvg * math.max(1, (bar_index - g.index) / 2) The volume score is then: float volScore = math.min(g.testVolume / expectedVol, 1.0) This produces a normalized 0 to 1 metric that shows whether the gap has attracted more or less volume than expected over its lifetime. 6. Rank Bar Scaling All three scores are projected visually along the time axis as horizontal bars. The script uses the age of the gap in bars as the maximum width: float maxWidth = math.max(bar_index - g.index, 1) Then each metric is mapped to a bar length: int len1 = int(math.max(1, maxWidth * velScore)) g.rankBox1.set_right(g.index + len1) int len2 = int(math.max(1, maxWidth * volScore)) g.rankBox2.set_right(g.index + len2) int len3 = int(math.max(1, maxWidth * safetyScore)) g.rankBox3.set_right(g.index + len3) This creates an intuitive visual representation where stronger metrics produce longer rank bars, making it easy to quickly compare the relative quality of multiple FVGs on the chart.

15 min Trailstop15m High/Low Liquidity Lines (1m) — Indicator Description 15m High/Low Liquidity Lines (1m) is a precision liquidity-mapping tool designed for intraday traders who understand the importance of higher-timeframe liquidity levels while executing on the 1-minute chart. This indicator automatically detects confirmed 15-minute swing highs and swing lows using pivot logic. When a new 15m high or low forms: ✔ Liquidity Line Generation A horizontal line is drawn exactly at the price level of the pivot. The line is anchored to the exact 1-minute candle that produced the 15m high/low, ensuring perfect visual alignment. The line extends only up to the current bar — not across the whole chart. Optional text labels (“15m High”, “15m Low”) can be shown at the start of each line. ✔ Auto-Cleanup (Smart Liquidity Sweep Detection) If price trades through the level, the corresponding line and label are: Instantly deleted Marking the level as taken/swept Allowing the chart to stay clean and focused on active liquidity only This mimics institutional liquidity logic: once the high or low is violated, the target is considered filled and removed. ✔ Alerts The indicator includes built-in alerts that fire when: A new 15m high is confirmed A new 15m low is confirmed This allows the trader to react immediately when fresh liquidity levels appear. ✔ Customization Options You can fully tailor the visual representation: Turn highs and/or lows on or off Choose line style (solid, dashed, dotted) Customize line color and thickness Customize the label style, size, and transparency Who Is This For? This indicator is ideal for: ICT-style traders Liquidity-based scalpers 1-minute ES/NQ traders Anyone who uses HTF liquidity levels to frame trades on the LTF It provides a clean, automated method to track active 15-minute liquidity levels directly on the 1-minute chart with zero clutter and perfect alignment.

Superior-Range Bound Renko - Strategy - 11-29-25 - SignalLynxSuperior-Range Bound Renko Strategy with Advanced Risk Management Template Signal Lynx | Free Scripts supporting Automation for the Night-Shift Nation 🌙 1. Overview Welcome to Superior-Range Bound Renko (RBR) — a volatility-aware, structure-respecting swing-trading system built on top of a full Risk Management (RM) Template from Signal Lynx. Instead of relying on static lookbacks (like “14-period RSI”) or plain MA crosses, Superior RBR: Adapts its range definition to market volatility in real time Emulates Renko Bricks on a standard, time-based chart (no Renko chart type required) Uses a stack of Laguerre Filters to detect genuine impulse vs. noise Adds an Adaptive SuperTrend powered by a small k-means-style clustering routine on volatility Under the hood, this script also includes the full Signal Lynx Risk Management Engine: A state machine that separates “Signal” from “Execution” Layered exit tools: Stop Loss, Trailing Stop, Staged Take Profit, Advanced Adaptive Trailing Stop (AATS), and an RSI-style stop (RSIS) Designed for non-repainting behavior on closed candles by basing execution-critical logic on previous-bar data We are publishing this as an open-source template so traders and developers can leverage a professional-grade RM engine while integrating their own signal logic if they wish. 2. Quick Action Guide (TL;DR) Best Timeframe: 4 Hours (H4) and above. This is a high-conviction swing-trading system, not a scalper. Best Assets: Volatile instruments that still respect market structure: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Gold (XAUUSD), high-volatility Forex pairs (e.g., GBPJPY), indices with clean ranges. Strategy Type: Volatility-Adaptive Trend Following + Impulse Detection. It hunts for genuine expansion out of ranges, not tiny mean-reversion nibbles. Key Feature: Renko Emulation on time-based candles. We mathematically model Renko Bricks and overlay them on your standard chart to define: “Equilibrium” zones (inside the brick structure) “Breakout / impulse” zones (when price AND the impulse line depart from the bricks) Repainting: Designed to be non-repainting on closed candles. All RM execution logic uses confirmed historical data (no future bars, no security() lookahead). Intrabar flicker during formation is allowed, but once a bar closes the engine’s decisions are stable. Core Toggles & Filters: Enable Longs and Shorts independently Optional Weekend filter (block trades on Saturday/Sunday) Per-module toggles: Stop Loss, Trailing Stop, Staged Take Profits, AATS, RSIS 3. Detailed Report: How It Works A. The Strategy Logic: Superior RBR Superior RBR builds its entry signal from multiple mathematical layers working together. 1) Adaptive Lookback (Volatility Normalization) Instead of a fixed 100-bar or 200-bar range, the script: Computes ATR-based volatility over a user-defined period. Normalizes that volatility relative to its recent min/max. Maps the normalized value into a dynamic lookback window between a minimum and maximum (e.g., 4 to 100 bars). High Volatility: The lookback shrinks, so the system reacts faster to explosive moves. Low Volatility: The lookback expands, so the system sees a “bigger picture” and filters out chop. All the core “Range High/Low” and “Range Close High/Low” boundaries are built on top of this adaptive window. 2) Range Construction & Quick Ranges The engine constructs several nested ranges: Outer Range: rangeHighFinal – dynamic highest high rangeLowFinal – dynamic lowest low Inner Close Range: rangeCloseHighFinal – highest close rangeCloseLowFinal – lowest close Quick Ranges: “Half-length” variants of those, used to detect more responsive changes in structure and volatility. These ranges define: The macro box price is trading inside Shorter-term “pressure zones” where price is coiling before expansion 3) Renko Emulation (The Bricks) Rather than using the Renko chart type (which discards time), this script emulates Renko behavior on your normal candles: A “brick size” is defined either: As a standard percentage move, or As a volatility-driven (ATR) brick, optionally inhibited by a minimum standard size The engine tracks a base value and derives: brickUpper – top of the emulated brick brickLower – bottom of the emulated brick When price moves sufficiently beyond those levels, the brick “shifts”, and the directional memory (renkoDir) updates: renkoDir = +2 when bricks are advancing upward renkoDir = -2 when bricks are stepping downward You can think of this as a synthetic Renko tape overlaid on time-based candles: Inside the brick: equilibrium / consolidation Breaking away from the brick: momentum / expansion 4) Impulse Tracking with Laguerre Filters The script uses multiple Laguerre Filters to smooth price and brick-derived data without traditional lag. Key filters include: LagF_1 / LagF_W: Based on brick upper/lower baselines LagF_Q: Based on HLCC4 (high + low + 2×close)/4 LagF_Y / LagF_P: Complex averages combining brick structures and range averages LagF_V (Primary Impulse Line): A smooth, high-level impulse line derived from a blend of the above plus the outer ranges Conceptually: When the impulse line pushes away from the brick structure and continues in one direction, an impulse move is underway. When its direction flips and begins to roll over, the impulse is fading, hinting at mean reversion back into the range. 5) Fib-Based Structure & Swaps The system also layers in Fib levels derived from the adaptive ranges: Standard levels (12%, 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61%, 76.8%, 88%) from the main range A secondary “swap” set derived from close-range dynamics (fib12Swap, fib23Swap, etc.) These Fibs are used to: Bucket price into structural zones (below 12, between 23–38, etc.) Detect breakouts when price and Laguerre move beyond key Fib thresholds Drive zSwap logic (where a secondary Fib set becomes the active structure once certain conditions are met) 6) Adaptive SuperTrend with K-Means-Style Volatility Clustering Under the hood, the script uses a small k-means-style clustering routine on ATR: ATR is measured over a fixed period The range of ATR values is split into Low, Medium, High volatility centroids Current ATR is assigned to the nearest centroid (cluster) From that, a SuperTrend variant (STK) is computed with dynamic sensitivity: In quiet markets, SuperTrend can afford to be tighter In wild markets, it widens appropriately to avoid constant whipsaw This SuperTrend-based oscillator (LagF_K and its signals) is then combined with the brick and Laguerre stack to confirm valid trend regimes. 7) Final Baseline Signals (+2 / -2) The “brain” of Superior RBR lives in the Baseline & Signal Generation block: Two composite signals are built: B1 and B2: They combine: Fib breakouts Renko direction (renkoDir) Expansion direction (expansionQuickDir) Multiple Laguerre alignments (LagF_Q, LagF_W, LagF_Y, LagF_Z, LagF_P, LagF_V) They also factor in whether Fib structures are expanding or contracting. A user toggle selects the “Baseline” signal: finalSig = B2 (default) or B1 (alternate baseline) finalSig is then filtered through the RM state machine and only when everything aligns, we emit: +2 = Long / Buy signal -2 = Short / Sell signal 0 = No new trade Those +2 / -2 values are what feed the Risk Management Engine. B. The Risk Management (RM) Engine This script features the Signal Lynx Risk Management Engine, a proprietary state machine built to separate Signal from Execution. Instead of firing orders directly on indicator conditions, we: Convert the raw signal into a clean integer (Fin = +2 / -2 / 0) Feed it into a Trade State Machine that understands: Are we flat? Are we in a long or short? Are we in a closing sequence? Should we permit re-entry now or wait? Logic Injection / Template Concept: The RM engine expects a simple integer: +2 → Buy -2 → Sell Everything else (0) is “no new trade” This makes the script a template: You can remove the Superior RBR block Drop in your own logic (RSI, MACD, price action, etc.) As long as you output +2 or -2 into the same signal channel, the RM engine can drive all exits and state transitions. Aggressive vs Conservative Modes: The input AgressiveRM (Aggressive RM) governs how we interpret signals: Conservative Mode (Aggressive RM = false): Uses a more filtered internal signal (AF) to open trades Effectively waits for a clean trend flip / confirmation before new entries Minimizes whipsaw at the cost of fewer trades Aggressive Mode (Aggressive RM = true): Reacts directly to the fresh alert (AO) pulses Allows faster re-entries in the same direction after RM-based exits Still respects your pyramiding setting; this script ships with pyramiding = 0 by default, so it will not stack multiple positions unless you change that parameter in the strategy() call. The state machine enforces discipline on top of your signal logic, reducing double-fires and signal spam. C. Advanced Exit Protocols (Layered Defense) The exit side is where this template really shines. Instead of a single “take profit or stop loss,” it uses multiple, cooperating layers. 1) Hard Stop Loss A classic percentage-based Stop Loss (SL) relative to the entry price. Acts as a final “catastrophic protection” layer for unexpected moves. 2) Standard Trailing Stop A percentage-based Trailing Stop (TS) that: Activates only after price has moved a certain percentage in your favor (tsActivation) Then trails price by a configurable percentage (ts) This is a straightforward, battle-tested trailing mechanism. 3) Staged Take Profits (Three Levels) The script supports three staged Take Profit levels (TP1, TP2, TP3): Each stage has: Activation percentage (how far price must move in your favor) Trailing amount for that stage Position percentage to close Example setup: TP1: Activate at +10% Trailing 5% Close 10% of the position TP2: Activate at +20% Trailing 10% Close another 10% TP3: Activate at +30% Trailing 5% Close the remaining 80% (“runner”) You can tailor these quantities for partial scaling out vs. letting a core position ride. 4) Advanced Adaptive Trailing Stop (AATS) AATS is a sophisticated volatility- and structure-aware stop: Uses Hirashima Sugita style levels (HSRS) to model “floors” and “ceilings” of price: Dungeon → Lower floors → Mid → Upper floors → Penthouse These levels classify where current price sits within a long-term distribution. Combines HSRS with Bollinger-style envelopes and EMAs to determine: Is price extended far into the upper structure? Is it compressed near the lower ranges? From this, it computes an adaptive factor that controls how tight or loose the trailing level (aATS / bATS) should be: High Volatility / Penthouse areas: Stop loosens to avoid getting wicked out by inevitable spikes. Low Volatility / compressed structure: Stop tightens to lock in and protect profit. AATS is designed to be the “smart last line” that responds to context instead of a single fixed percentage. 5) RSI-Style Stop (RSIS) On top of AATS, the script includes a RSI-like regime filter: A McGinley Dynamic mean of price plus ATR bands creates a dynamic channel. Crosses above the top band and below the lower band change a directional state. When enabled (UseRSIS): RSIS can confirm or veto AATS closes: For longs: A shift to bearish RSIS can force exits sooner. For shorts: A shift to bullish RSIS can do the same. This extra layer helps avoid over-reactive stops in strong trends while still respecting a regime change when it happens. D. Repainting Protection Many strategies look incredible in the Strategy Tester but fail in live trading because they rely on intrabar values or future-knowledge functions. This template is built with closed-candle realism in mind: The Risk Management logic explicitly uses previous bar data (open , high , low , close ) for the key decisions on: Trailing stop updates TP triggers SL hits RM state transitions No security() lookahead or future-bar access is used. This means: Backtest behavior is designed to match what you can actually get with TradingView alerts and live automation. Signals may “flicker” intrabar while the candle is forming (as with any strategy), but on closed candles, the RM decisions are stable and non-repainting. 4. For Developers & Modders We strongly encourage you to mod this script. To plug your own strategy into the RM engine: Look for the section titled: // BASELINE & SIGNAL GENERATION You will see composite logic building B1 and B2, and then selecting: baseSig = B2 altSig = B1 finalSig = sigSwap ? baseSig : altSig You can replace the content used to generate baseSig / altSig with your own logic, for example: RSI crosses MACD histogram flips Candle pattern detectors External condition flags Requirements are simple: Your final logic must output: 2 → Buy signal -2 → Sell signal 0 → No new trade That output flows into the RM engine via finalSig → AlertOpen → state machine → Fin. Once you wire your signals into finalSig, the entire Risk Management system (Stops, TPs, AATS, RSIS, re-entry logic, weekend filters, long/short toggles) becomes available for your custom strategy without re-inventing the wheel. This makes Superior RBR not just a strategy, but a reference architecture for serious Pine dev work. 5.

Pivot Reversal Signals - Multi ConfirmationPivot Reversal Signals - Multi-Confirmation System Overview A comprehensive reversal detection indicator designed for daytraders that combines six independent technical signals to identify high-probability pivot points. The indicator uses a scoring system to classify signal strength as Weak, Medium, or Strong based on the number of confirmations present. How It Works The indicator monitors six key reversal signals simultaneously: 1. RSI Divergence - Detects when price makes new highs/lows but RSI shows weakening momentum 2. MACD Divergence - Identifies divergence between price action and MACD histogram 3. Key Level Touch - Confirms price is at significant support/resistance (previous day high/low, premarket high/low, VWAP, 50 SMA) 4. Reversal Candlestick Patterns - Recognizes bullish/bearish engulfing, hammers, and shooting stars 5. Moving Average Confluence - Validates bounces/rejections at stacked moving averages (9/20/50) 6. Volume Spike - Confirms increased participation (default: 1.5x average volume) Signal Strength Classification • Weak (3/6 confirmations) - Small circles for situational awareness only • Medium (4/6 confirmations) - Regular triangles, viable entry signals • Strong (5-6/6 confirmations) - Large triangles with background highlight, highest probability setups Visual Features • Entry Signals: Green triangles (up) for long entries, red triangles (down) for short entries • Exit Warnings: Orange X markers when opposing signals appear • Signal Labels: Show confirmation score (e.g., "5/6") and strength level • Key Levels Displayed: o Previous Day High/Low - Solid green/red lines (uses actual daily data) o Premarket High/Low - Blue/orange circles (4:00 AM - 9:30 AM EST) o VWAP - Purple line o Moving Averages - 9 EMA (blue), 20 EMA (orange), 50 SMA (red) • Background Tinting: Subtle color on strongest reversal zones Key Level Detection The indicator uses request.security() to accurately fetch previous day's high/low from daily timeframe data, ensuring precise level placement. Premarket high/low levels are dynamically tracked during premarket sessions (4:00 AM - 9:30 AM EST) and plotted throughout the trading day, providing critical support/resistance zones that often influence price action during regular hours. Customizable Parameters • Signal strength thresholds (adjust required confirmations) • RSI settings (length, overbought/oversold levels) • MACD parameters (fast/slow/signal lengths) • Moving average periods • Volume spike multiplier • Toggle individual display elements (levels, MAs, labels) Best Practices • Use on 5-minute charts for entries, confirm on 15-minute for direction • Focus on Medium and Strong signals; Weak signals provide context only • Strong signals (5-6 confirmations) have the highest win rate • Pay special attention to reversals at premarket high/low - these levels frequently hold • Previous day high/low often acts as major support/resistance • Always use proper risk management and stop losses • Works best in moderately trending markets Alert Capabilities Set custom alerts for: • Strong long/short signals • All entry signals (medium + strong) • Exit warnings for open positions Ideal For • Daytraders and scalpers (especially SPY, QQQ, and liquid equities) • Swing traders seeking precise entries • Traders who prefer confirmation-based systems • Anyone looking to reduce false signals with multi-factor validation • Traders who utilize premarket levels in their strategy Technical Notes • Uses Pine Script v6 • Premarket hours: 4:00 AM - 9:30 AM EST • Previous day levels pulled from daily timeframe for accuracy • Maximum 500 labels to maintain chart performance • All key levels update dynamically in real-time ________________________________________ Note: This indicator provides signal analysis only and should be used as part of a complete trading strategy. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always practice proper risk management.

Chop + MSS/FVG Retest (Ace v1.6) – IndicatorWhat this indicator does Name: Chop + MSS/FVG Retest (Ace v1.6) – Indicator This is an entry model helper, not just a BOS/MSS marker. It looks for clean trend-side setups by combining: MSS (Market Structure Shift) using swing highs/lows 3-bar ICT Fair Value Gaps (FVG) First retest back into the FVG A built-in chop / trend filter based on ATR and a moving average When everything lines up, it plots: L below the candle = Long candidate S above the candle = Short candidate You pair this with a higher-timeframe filter (like the Chop Meter 1H/30M/15M) to avoid pressing the button in garbage environments. How it works (simple explanation) Chop / Trend filter Computes ATR and compares each bar’s range to ATR. If the bar is small vs ATR → more likely CHOP. If the bar is big vs ATR → more likely TREND. Uses a moving average: Above MA + TREND → trendLong zone Below MA + TREND → trendShort zone MSS (Market Structure Shift) Uses swing highs/lows (left/right bars) to track the last significant high/low. Bullish MSS: close breaks above last swing high with displacement. Bearish MSS: close breaks below last swing low with displacement. Those events are marked as tiny triangles (MSS up/down). A MSS only stays “valid” for a certain number of bars (Bars after MSS allowed). 3-bar ICT FVG Bullish FVG: low > high → gap between bar 3 high and bar 2 low. Bearish FVG: high < low → gap between bar 3 low and bar 2 high. The indicator stores the FVG boundaries (top/bottom). Retest of FVG Watches for price to trade back into that gap (first touch). That retest is the “entry zone” after the MSS. Final Long / Short condition Long (L) prints when: Recent bullish MSS Bullish FVG has formed Price retests the bullish FVG Environment = trendLong (ATR + above MA) Not CHOP Short (S) prints when: Recent bearish MSS Bearish FVG has formed Price retests the bearish FVG Environment = trendShort (ATR + below MA) Not CHOP So the L/S markers are “model-approved entry candles”, not just any random BOS. Inputs / Settings Key inputs you’ll see: ATR length (chop filter) How many bars to use for ATR in the chop / trend filter. Lower = more sensitive, twitchy Higher = smoother, slower to change Max chop ratio If barRange / ATR is below this → treat as CHOP. Min trend ratio If barRange / ATR is above this → treat as TREND. Hide MSS/BOS marks in CHOP? ON = MSS triangles disappear when the bar is classified as CHOP Keeps your chart cleaner in consolidation Swing left / right bars Controls how tight or wide the swing highs/lows are for MSS: Smaller = more sensitive, more MSS points Larger = fewer, more significant swings Bars after MSS allowed How many bars after a MSS the indicator will still allow FVG entries. Small value (e.g. 10) = MSS must deliver quickly or it’s ignored. Larger (e.g. 20) = MSS idea stays “in play” longer. Visual RR (for info only) Just for plotting relative risk-reward in your head. This is not a strategy tester; it doesn’t manage positions. What you see on the chart Small green triangle up = Bullish MSS Small red triangle down = Bearish MSS “L” triangle below a bar = Long idea (MSS + FVG retest + trendLong + not chop) “S” triangle above a bar = Short idea (MSS + FVG retest + trendShort + not chop) Faint circle plots on price: When the filter sees CHOP When it sees Trend Long zone When it sees Trend Short zone You do not have to trade every L or S. They’re there to show “this is where the model would have considered an entry.” How to use it in your trading 1. Use it with a higher-timeframe filter Best practice: Use this with the Chop Meter 1H/30M/15M or some other HTF filter. Only consider L/S when: Chop Meter = TRADE / NORMAL, and This indicator prints L or S in the right location (premium/discount, near OB/FVG, etc.) If higher-timeframe says NO TRADE, you ignore all L/S. 2. Location > Signal Treat L/S as confirmation, not the whole story. For shorts (S): Look for premium zones (previous highs, OBs, fair value ranges above mid). Want purge / raid of liquidity + MSS down + bearish FVG retest → then S. For longs (L): Look for discount zones (previous lows, OBs/FVGs below mid). Want stop raid / purge low + MSS up + bullish FVG retest → then L. If you see L/S firing in the middle of a bigger range, that’s where you skip and let it go. 3. Instrument presets (example) You can tune the ATR/chop settings per instrument: MNQ (noisy, 1m chart): ATR length: 21 Max chop ratio: 0.90 Min trend ratio: 1.40 Bars after MSS allowed: 10 GOLD (cleaner, 3m chart): ATR length: 14 Max chop ratio: 0.80 Min trend ratio: 1.30 Bars after MSS allowed: 20 You can save those as presets in the TV settings for quick switching. 4. How to practice with it Open replay on a couple of days. Check Chop Meter → if NO TRADE, just observe. When Chop Meter says TRADE: Mark where L/S printed. Ask: Was this in premium/discount? Was there SMT / purge on HTF? Did the move actually deliver, or did it die? Screenshot the A+ L/S and the ugly ones; refine: ATR length Chop / trend thresholds MSS lookback Your goal is to get it to where: The L/S marks show up mostly in the same places your eye already likes, and you ignore the rest.
