5 EMAs plus Crossing AlertsHi all,
This is a simple indicator that plots 5 EMA lines of your choice to the screen.
Can be used to trigger scalping Bots (stoploss around 0.5% recommended, take profit 1% or higher, please backtest!)
Also can be used for manual scalping, 1 or 2 candles at a time.
Features:
1) Alerts are triggered when EMAs 1 (Signal line) and 2 (Baseline) cross - a Long signal is called if the cross is above EMA 3 (Trendline), a short if the cross is below EMA3
2) Signals are represented visually as a triangle on the chart, below the candles is a long, above is a short
3) TradingView Alerts can be easily set as I have labelled the signals clearly as many other Indicators like this aren’t easy to work out if trying to create alerts to trigger a 3commas bot, for example!
Each EMA is fully customisable and if you wish to take advantage of the alerts, only a few simple rules need to be followed:
EMA1 needs to be less than EMA2.
EMA2 needs to be the same or greater than EMA3
That’s it, happy trading!
Big shout out to B and the gang over at Crypto Trading Group!

Smart Money Flow Index (SMFI) - Advanced SMC [PhenLabs]📊Smart Money Flow Index (SMFI)
Version: PineScript™v6
📌Description
The Smart Money Flow Index (SMFI) is an advanced Smart Money Concepts implementation that tracks institutional trading behavior through multi-dimensional analysis. This comprehensive indicator combines volume-validated Order Block detection, Fair Value Gap identification with auto-mitigation tracking, dynamic Liquidity Zone mapping, and Break of Structure/Change of Character detection into a unified system.
Unlike basic SMC indicators, SMFI employs a proprietary scoring algorithm that weighs five critical factors: Order Block strength (validated by volume), Fair Value Gap size and recency, proximity to Liquidity Zones, market structure alignment (BOS/CHoCH), and multi-timeframe confluence. This produces a Smart Money Score (0-100) where readings above 70 represent optimal institutional setup conditions.
🚀Points of Innovation

⚠️Limitations
Lagging Pivot Calculations – Pivot-based features (Liquidity Zones, Market Structure) require bars to right of pivot for confirmation, meaning these elements identify levels retrospectively with delay equal to lookback period
Whipsaw in Ranging Markets – During choppy conditions, Order Blocks fail frequently and structure breaks produce false signals as Smart Money Score fluctuates without clear institutional bias, best used in trending markets
Volume Data Dependency – Order Block volume validation requires accurate volume data which may be incomplete on Forex pairs or limited in crypto exchange feeds
Subjectivity in Scoring Weights – Proprietary 25-20-20-20-15 weighting reflects general institutional behavior but may not optimize for specific instruments or market regimes, user cannot adjust factor weights
Visual Complexity on Lower Timeframes – Sub-hour timeframes generate excessive zones creating cluttered charts, requires aggressive display limit reduction and higher minimum thresholds
No Fundamental Integration – Indicator analyzes purely technical price action and volume without incorporating economic events, news catalysts, or fundamental shifts that override technical levels
💡What Makes This Unique
Unified SMC Ecosystem – Unlike indicators displaying Order Blocks OR FVGs OR Liquidity separately, SMFI combines all three institutional concepts plus market structure into single cohesive system
Proprietary Confidence Scoring – Rather than manual setup assessment, automated Smart Money Score quantifies probability by weighting five institutional dimensions into actionable 0-100 rating
Volume-Filtered Quality – Eliminates weak Order Blocks forming without institutional volume confirmation, ensuring displayed zones represent genuine accumulation/distribution
Adaptive Lifecycle Management – Automatically updates mitigation status and removes aged zones preventing trades on dead levels through continuous validity and age monitoring
Educational Integration – Built-in tooltips, labeled zones, and reference panel make indicator functional for both learning Smart Money Concepts and executing strategies
🔬How It Works
Order Block Detection – Scans for patterns where strong directional move follows counter-move creating last down-candle before rally (bullish OB) or last up-candle before sell-off (bearish OB), validates formations only when candle exhibits volume exceeding configurable multiple (default 1.5x) of 20-bar average volume
Fair Value Gap Identification – Compares current candle’s high/low against two-candles-prior low/high to detect price imbalances, calculates gap size as percentage of close and filters micro-gaps below minimum threshold (default 0.3%), monitors whether subsequent price fills 50% triggering mitigation status
Liquidity Zone Mapping – Employs pivot detection using configurable lookback (default 50 bars) to identify swing highs/lows where retail stops cluster, extends horizontal reference lines from pivot creation and applies age-based filtering to remove stale zones
Market Structure Analysis – Tracks pivot progression using structure-specific lookback (default 5 bars) to determine trend, confirms uptrend when new pivot high exceeds previous by minimum move percentage, detects Break of Structure when price breaks recent pivot level, flags Change of Character for potential reversals
Multi-Timeframe Confluence – When enabled, requests security data from higher timeframe (current TF × HTF multiplier, default 4x), compares HTF close against HTF 20-period MA to determine bias, contributes ±50 points to score ensuring alignment with institutional positioning on superior timeframe
Smart Money Score Calculation – Evaluates Order Block component via ATR-normalized distance producing max 100-point contribution weighted at 25%, assesses FVG factor through age penalty and distance at 20% weight, calculates Liquidity proximity at 20%, incorporates structure bias (±50-100 points) at 20%, adds MTF component at 15%, applies 3-period smoothing to reduce volatility
Visual Rendering and Lifecycle – Draws Order Block boxes, Fair Value Gap rectangles with color coding (green/red active, gray mitigated), extends liquidity dashed lines with fade-by-age opacity, plots BOS labels, displays Smart Money Score dashboard, continuously updates checking mitigation conditions and removing elements exceeding age/display limits
💡Note:
The Smart Money Flow Index combines multiple Smart Money Concepts into unified institutional order flow analysis. For optimal results, use the Smart Money Score as confluence filter rather than standalone entry signal – scores above 70 indicate high-probability setups but should be combined with risk management, higher timeframe bias, and market regime understanding.
Volume Cluster Support and Resistance Levels [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
This indicator identifies statistically significant support and resistance levels through volume cluster analysis, isolating price zones characterized by elevated trading activity and institutional participation. By quantifying areas where volume concentration exceeded historical norms, it reveals price levels with demonstrated supply-demand imbalances that exhibit persistent influence on subsequent price action. The methodology is asset-agnostic and timeframe-independent, applicable across equities, cryptocurrencies, forex, and commodities from intraday to weekly intervals.
🟢 Key Features
1. Support and Resistance Levels
The indicator scans historical price data to identify bars where volume exceeds a user-defined threshold multiplier relative to the rolling average. For each qualifying bar, a representative price is calculated using the average of high, low, and close. Proximate price levels within a specified percentage range are then aggregated into discrete clusters using volume-weighted averaging, eliminating redundant signals. Clusters are ranked by cumulative volume to determine statistical significance. Finally, the indicator plots horizontal levels at each cluster price: support levels (green) below current price indicate zones where historical buying pressure exceeded selling pressure, while resistance levels (red) above current price mark zones where sellers historically dominated. These levels represent areas of established liquidity and price discovery, where institutional order flow previously concentrated.
The Touch Count (T) metric quantifies historical price interaction frequency, while Total Volume (TV) measures aggregate trading activity at each level, providing objective criteria for assessing level strength and trade execution decisions.
2. Volume Histogram
A histogram appears below the price chart, displaying relative volume for each bar within the lookback period, with bar height scaled to the maximum volume observed. Green bars represent up-periods (close > open) indicating buying pressure, while red bars show down-periods (close < open) indicating selling pressure. This visualization helps you confirm the validity of support/resistance levels by seeing where volume actually spiked, identify accumulation/distribution patterns, and validate breakouts by checking if they occur on above-average volume.
3. Built-in Alerts
Automated alerts trigger when price crosses below support levels or breaks above resistance levels, allowing you to monitor multiple assets without constant chart-watching.
4. Customizable Color Schemes
The indicator provides four preset color configurations (Classic, Aqua, Cosmic, Custom) optimized for visual clarity across different charting environments. Each scheme maintains consistent color mapping for support and resistance zones across both level lines and volume histogram components. The Custom configuration permits full color specification to accommodate individual charting setups, ensuring optimal visual contrast for extended analysis sessions.
Classic:
Aqua:
Cosmic:
Custom:
🟢 Pro Tips
→ Trade entry optimization: Execute long positions at support levels with high touch counts or upon confirmed resistance breakouts accompanied by above-average volume
→ Risk parameter definition: Position stop-loss orders near identified support/resistance zones with statistical significance to minimize premature exits
→ Breakout validation: Require volume confirmation exceeding historical average when price penetrates resistance to filter false breakouts
→ Level strength assessment: Prioritize levels with higher touch counts and total volume metrics for enhanced probability trade setups
→ Multi-timeframe confluence: Synthesize support/resistance levels across multiple timeframes to identify high-conviction zones where daily support aligns with 4-hour resistance structures
Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Trend Channel [BOSWaves]Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Trend Channel - Adaptive Mean Reversion with Dynamic Equilibrium Geometry
Overview
The Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Trend Channel introduces an advanced equilibrium-mapping framework that blends statistical mean reversion with adaptive trend geometry. Traditional channels and regression bands react linearly to volatility, often failing to capture the natural rhythm of price equilibrium. This model evolves that concept through a dynamic reversion engine, where equilibrium adapts continuously to volatility, trend slope, and structural bias - forming a living channel that bends, expands, and contracts in real time.
The result is a smooth, equilibrium-driven representation of market balance - not just trend direction. Instead of static bands or abrupt slope shifts, traders see fluid, volatility-aware motion that mirrors the natural pull-and-release dynamic of market behavior. Each channel visualizes the probabilistic boundaries of fair value, showing where price tends to revert and where it accelerates away from its statistical mean.
Unlike conventional envelopes or Bollinger-type constructs, the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck framework is volatility-reactive and equilibrium-sensitive, providing traders with a contextual map of where price is likely to stabilize, extend, or exhaust.
Theoretical Foundation
The Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Trend Channel is inspired by stochastic mean-reversion processes - mathematical models used to describe systems that oscillate around a drifting equilibrium. While linear regression channels assume constant variance, financial markets operate under variable volatility and shifting equilibrium points. The OU process accounts for this by treating price as a mean-seeking motion governed by volatility and trend persistence.
At its core are three interacting components:
Equilibrium Mean (μ) : Represents the evolving balance point of price, adjusting to directional bias and volatility.
Reversion Rate (θ) : Defines how strongly price is pulled back toward equilibrium after deviation, capturing the self-correcting nature of market structure.
Volatility Coefficient (σ) : Controls how far and how quickly price can diverge from equilibrium before mean reversion pressure increases.
By embedding this stochastic model inside a volatility-adjusted framework, the system accurately scales across different markets and conditions - maintaining meaningful equilibrium geometry across crypto, forex, indices, or commodities. This design gives traders a mathematically grounded yet visually intuitive interpretation of dynamic balance in live market motion.
How It Works
The Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Trend Channel is constructed through a structured multi-stage process that merges stochastic logic with volatility mechanics:
Equilibrium Estimation Core : The indicator begins by identifying the evolving mean using adaptive smoothing influenced by trend direction and volatility. This becomes the live centerline - the statistical anchor around which price naturally oscillates.
Volatility Normalization Layer : ATR or rolling deviation is used to calculate volatility intensity. The output scales the channel width dynamically, ensuring that boundaries reflect current variance rather than static thresholds.
Directional Bias Engine : EMA slope and trend confirmation logic determine whether equilibrium should tilt upward or downward. This creates asymmetrical channel motion that bends with the prevailing trend rather than staying horizontal.
Channel Boundary Construction : Upper and lower bands are plotted at volatility-proportional distances from the mean. These envelopes form the “statistical pressure zones” that indicate where mean reversion or acceleration may occur.
Signal and Lifecycle Control : Channel breaches, mean crossovers, and slope flips mark statistically significant events - exhaustion, continuation, or rebalancing. Older equilibrium zones gradually fade, ensuring a clear, context-aware visual field.
Through these layers, the channel forms a continuously updating equilibrium corridor that adapts in real time - breathing with the market’s volatility and rhythm.
Interpretation
The Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Trend Channel reframes how traders interpret balance and momentum. Instead of viewing price as directional movement alone, it visualizes the constant tension between trending force and equilibrium pull.
Uptrend Phases : The equilibrium mean tilts upward, with price oscillating around or slightly above the midline. Upper band touches signal momentum extension; lower touches reflect healthy reversion.
Downtrend Phases : The mean slopes downward, with upper-band interactions marking resistance zones and lower bands acting as reversion boundaries.
Equilibrium Transitions : Flat mean sections indicate balance or distribution phases. Breaks from these neutral zones often precede directional expansion.
Overextension Events : When price closes beyond an outer boundary, it marks statistically significant disequilibrium - an early warning of exhaustion or volatility reset.
Visually, the OU channel translates volatility and equilibrium into structured geometry, giving traders a statistical lens on trend quality, reversion probability, and volatility stress points.
Strategy Integration
The Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Trend Channel integrates seamlessly into both mean-reversion and trend-continuation systems:
Trend Alignment : Use mean slope direction to confirm higher-timeframe bias before entering continuation setups.
Reversion Entries : Target rejections from outer bands when supported by volume or divergence, capturing snapbacks toward equilibrium.
Volatility Breakout Mapping : Monitor boundary expansions to identify transition from compression to expansion phases.
Liquidity Zone Confirmation : Combine with BOS or order-block indicators to validate structural zones against equilibrium positioning.
Momentum Filtering : Align with oscillators or volume profiles to isolate equilibrium-based pullbacks with statistical context.
Technical Implementation Details
Core Engine : Stochastic Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process for continuous mean recalibration.
Volatility Framework : ATR- and deviation-based scaling for dynamic channel expansion.
Directional Logic : EMA-slope driven bias for adaptive mean tilt.
Channel Composition : Independent upper and lower envelopes with smoothing and transparency control.
Signal Structure : Alerts for mean crossovers and boundary breaches.
Performance Profile : Lightweight, multi-timeframe compatible implementation optimized for real-time responsiveness.
Optimal Application Parameters
Timeframe Guidance:
1 - 5 min : Reactive equilibrium tracking for short-term scalping and microstructure analysis.
15 - 60 min : Medium-range setups for volatility-phase transitions and intraday structure.
4H - Daily : Macro equilibrium mapping for identifying exhaustion, distribution, or reaccumulation zones.
Suggested Configuration:
Mean Length : 20 - 50
Volatility Multiplier : 1.5× - 2.5×
Reversion Sensitivity : 0.4 - 0.8
Smoothing : 2 - 5
Parameter tuning should reflect asset liquidity, volatility, and desired reversion frequency.
Performance Characteristics
High Effectiveness:
Trending environments with cyclical pullbacks and volatility oscillation.
Markets exhibiting consistent equilibrium-return behavior (indices, majors, high-cap crypto).
Reduced Effectiveness:
Low-volatility consolidations with minimal variance.
Random walk markets lacking definable equilibrium anchors.
Integration Guidelines
Confluence Framework : Pair with BOSWaves structural tools or momentum oscillators for context validation.
Directional Control : Follow mean slope alignment for directional conviction before acting on channel extremes.
Risk Calibration : Use outer band violations for controlled contrarian entries or trailing stop management.
Multi-Timeframe Synergy : Derive macro equilibrium zones on higher timeframes and refine entries on lower levels.
Disclaimer
The Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Trend Channel is a professional-grade equilibrium and volatility framework. It is not predictive or profit-assured; performance depends on parameter calibration, volatility regime, and disciplined execution. BOSWaves recommends using it as part of a comprehensive analytical stack combining structure, liquidity, and momentum context.
Machine Learning Moving Average [BackQuant]Machine Learning Moving Average
A powerful tool combining clustering, pseudo-machine learning, and adaptive prediction, enabling traders to understand and react to price behavior across multiple market regimes (Bullish, Neutral, Bearish). This script uses a dynamic clustering approach based on percentile thresholds and calculates an adaptive moving average, ideal for forecasting price movements with enhanced confidence levels.
What is Percentile Clustering?
Percentile clustering is a method that sorts and categorizes data into distinct groups based on its statistical distribution. In this script, the clustering process relies on the percentile values of a composite feature (based on technical indicators like RSI, CCI, ATR, etc.). By identifying key thresholds (lower and upper percentiles), the script assigns each data point (price movement) to a cluster (Bullish, Neutral, or Bearish), based on its proximity to these thresholds.
This approach mimics aspects of machine learning, where we “train” the model on past price behavior to predict future movements. The key difference is that this is not true machine learning; rather, it uses data-driven statistical techniques to "cluster" the market into patterns.
Why Percentile Clustering is Useful
Clustering price data into meaningful patterns (Bullish, Neutral, Bearish) helps traders visualize how price behavior can be grouped over time.
By leveraging past price behavior and technical indicators, percentile clustering adapts dynamically to evolving market conditions.
It helps you understand whether price behavior today aligns with past bullish or bearish trends, improving market context.
Clusters can be used to predict upcoming market conditions by identifying regimes with high confidence, improving entry/exit timing.
What This Script Does
Clustering Based on Percentiles : The script uses historical price data and various technical features to compute a "composite feature" for each bar. This feature is then sorted and clustered based on predefined percentile thresholds (e.g., 10th percentile for lower, 90th percentile for upper).
Cluster-Based Prediction : Once clustered, the script uses a weighted average, cluster momentum, or regime transition model to predict future price behavior over a specified number of bars.
Dynamic Moving Average : The script calculates a machine-learning-inspired moving average (MLMA) based on the current cluster, adjusting its behavior according to the cluster regime (Bullish, Neutral, Bearish).
Adaptive Confidence Levels : Confidence in the predicted return is calculated based on the distance between the current value and the other clusters. The further it is from the next closest cluster, the higher the confidence.
Visual Cluster Mapping : The script visually highlights different clusters on the chart with distinct colors for Bullish, Neutral, and Bearish regimes, and plots the MLMA line.
Prediction Output : It projects the predicted price based on the selected method and shows both predicted price and confidence percentage for each prediction horizon.
Trend Identification : Using the clustering output, the script colors the bars based on the current cluster to reflect whether the market is trending Bullish (green), Bearish (red), or is Neutral (gray).
How Traders Use It
Predicting Price Movements : The script provides traders with an idea of where prices might go based on past market behavior. Traders can use this forecast for short-term and long-term predictions, guiding their trades.
Clustering for Regime Analysis : Traders can identify whether the market is in a Bullish, Neutral, or Bearish regime, using that information to adjust trading strategies.
Adaptive Moving Average for Trend Following : The adaptive moving average can be used as a trend-following indicator, helping traders stay in the market when it’s aligned with the current trend (Bullish or Bearish).
Entry/Exit Strategy : By understanding the current cluster and its associated trend, traders can time entries and exits with higher precision, taking advantage of favorable conditions when the confidence in the predicted price is high.
Confidence for Risk Management : The confidence level associated with the predicted returns allows traders to manage risk better. Higher confidence levels indicate stronger market conditions, which can lead to higher position sizes.
Pseudo Machine Learning Aspect
While the script does not use conventional machine learning models (e.g., neural networks or decision trees), it mimics certain aspects of machine learning in its approach. By using clustering and the dynamic adjustment of a moving average, the model learns from historical data to adjust predictions for future price behavior. The "learning" comes from how the script uses past price data (and technical indicators) to create patterns (clusters) and predict future market movements based on those patterns.
Why This Is Important for Traders
Understanding market regimes helps to adjust trading strategies in a way that adapts to current market conditions.
Forecasting price behavior provides an additional edge, enabling traders to time entries and exits based on predicted price movements.
By leveraging the clustering technique, traders can separate noise from signal, improving the reliability of trading signals.
The combination of clustering and predictive modeling in one tool reduces the complexity for traders, allowing them to focus on actionable insights rather than manual analysis.
How to Interpret the Output
Bullish (Green) Zone : When the price behavior clusters into the Bullish zone, expect upward price movement. The MLMA line will help confirm if the trend remains upward.
Bearish (Red) Zone : When the price behavior clusters into the Bearish zone, expect downward price movement. The MLMA line will assist in tracking any downward trends.
Neutral (Gray) Zone : A neutral market condition signals indecision or range-bound behavior. The MLMA line can help track any potential breakouts or trend reversals.
Predicted Price : The projected price is shown on the chart, based on the cluster's predicted behavior. This provides a useful reference for where the price might move in the near future.
Prediction Confidence : The confidence percentage helps you gauge the reliability of the predicted price. A higher percentage indicates stronger market confidence in the forecasted move.
Tips for Use
Combining with Other Indicators : Use the output of this indicator in combination with your existing strategy (e.g., RSI, MACD, or moving averages) to enhance signal accuracy.
Position Sizing with Confidence : Increase position size when the prediction confidence is high, and decrease size when it’s low, based on the confidence interval.
Regime-Based Strategy : Consider developing a multi-strategy approach where you use this tool for Bullish or Bearish regimes and a separate strategy for Neutral markets.
Optimization : Adjust the lookback period and percentile settings to optimize the clustering algorithm based on your asset’s characteristics.
Conclusion
The Machine Learning Moving Average offers a novel approach to price prediction by leveraging percentile clustering and a dynamically adapting moving average. While not a traditional machine learning model, this tool mimics the adaptive behavior of machine learning by adjusting to evolving market conditions, helping traders predict price movements and identify trends with improved confidence and accuracy.
Buy/Sell Volume Tracker [wjdtks255]Indicator Description
Function: Separates buy and sell volume based on candle direction (close ≥ open) and displays the buy−sell difference (hist_val) as a histogram.
Visuals: Buy/sell bars are distinguished by user-selectable colors and opacity; two moving averages (MA1 and MA2) are shown to smooth the flow.
Meaning: A positive histogram indicates buy dominance; a negative histogram indicates sell dominance.
Limitation: The current separation is estimated from candle direction and may differ from execution-side (tick/trade-side) based data.
Trading Rules (Summary)
Conservative trend-following long
Entry: Enter long when hist_val turns above 0 and MA1 crosses MA2 from below.
Stop-loss: Exit if hist_val falls back below 0 or MA1 drops below MA2.
Take-profit: Use a risk:reward of 1:1.5 or set targets based on ATR.
Short-term rebound long
Entry: Enter a short-term long when a large negative histogram region begins to narrow and shows a recovery sign.
Stop-loss: Exit if hist_val drops below the previous low or bearish candles continue.
Take-profit: Prefer quick partial profit-taking.
Short (sell) strategy
Entry: Enter short when hist_val falls below 0 and MA1 crosses MA2 from above.
Stop-loss / Take-profit: Apply the inverse rules of the long strategy.
Filters and risk management
Volume filter: Only accept signals when volume exceeds a fraction of average volume to reduce noise.
Entry strength: Require |hist_val| to exceed a historical average threshold (e.g., avg(|hist_val|, N) × factor) to strengthen signals.
Position sizing: Size positions so that account risk per trade is within limits (e.g., 1–2% of account equity).
Timeframe: Use short timeframes for scalping and 1h+ for swing trading.

Dynamic Liquidity HeatMap Profile [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Dynamic Liquidity HeatMap Profile is a smart-flow liquidity tracker that maps where stop-loss clusters and resting limit orders are likely positioned.
Instead of traditional volume profiles based only on executed transactions, this tool projects probable liquidity pools — areas where traders are trapped or positioned and where smart money may hunt stops or fill orders.
It dynamically scans recent price swings, builds liquidity zones above and below price, and visualizes them as a heat map + histogram — highlighting areas with the greatest liquidity attraction.
Orange highlights the highest-concentration liquidity (POC), making potential sweep targets obvious.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Liquidity pools form above swing highs (buy stops) and below swing lows (sell stops).
Market makers & large players often push price into these zones to trigger stops and capture liquidity.
The indicator uses recent volatility + volume expansion to estimate where these pools exist.
Horizontal heat bars show depth and intensity of probable liquidity.
Profile side histogram displays buy-side vs sell-side liquidity distribution.
🔵 FEATURES
Dynamic Liquidity Detection — finds potential stop-loss clusters from recent swing behavior.
Dual-Side Heatmap — split liquidity view above (short stops) and below (long stops) current price.
Volume-Weighted Levels — higher volatility & volume = deeper liquidity expectation.
Real-Time Heat Coloring
• Lime = liquidity below price (potential buy-side fuel)
• Blue = liquidity above price (potential sell-side fuel)
• Orange = peak liquidity (POC)
Liquidity Profile Histogram — plotted at right side, layered by strength.
Auto-Cleaning Engine — removes invalidated liquidity after breaks.
Adjustable lookback window and bin resolution .
🔵 HOW TO USE
Look for price moving toward dense liquidity zones — high probability of wick raids or sweeps.
Orange POC often acts as magnet — strong target zone for smart money.
Combine with SFP / BOS logic to time reversals after liquidity hunts.
In trend, price repeatedly sweeps opposite-side liquidity before continuation.
Use liquidity walls as bias filters — heavy liquidity above often precedes downward move, and vice-versa.
Great for scalping sessions, indices, FX, BTC, ETH.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Dynamic Liquidity HeatMap Profile gives traders a tactical edge by revealing where the market’s hidden liquidity resides.
It highlights where shorts and longs are positioned, identifies likely sweep zones, and marks the most attractive liquidity magnet (POC).
Use it to anticipate stop hunts, avoid getting trapped, and align with smart-money flow instead of fighting it.
Volume Momentum Div - [TCMaster]📘 Description
Volume + Momentum (Instant Alert) is a dynamic indicator designed to detect potential market tops and bottoms in real time by combining momentum shifts with volume spikes.
Unlike traditional oscillators that confirm signals only after candle close, this tool reacts instantly, providing early alerts during live market movements.
⚙️ How It Works
Momentum Calculation:
Measures the short-term price acceleration using the difference between the current price and the price n periods ago.
Rising momentum indicates bullish strength, while falling momentum shows bearish pressure.
Volume Spike Detection:
Compares current volume to its moving average.
When the current volume exceeds the average by a defined multiplier, it signals strong market participation — often appearing near market reversals.
Signal Logic:
Top Alert (🔻): Momentum turns negative while a volume spike occurs → potential short opportunity.
Bottom Alert (🔺): Momentum turns positive while a volume spike occurs → potential long opportunity.
🎯 Features
Real-time alerts (calc_on_every_tick=true) — signals trigger instantly during live candles.
Multiple plot styles available: Line, Histogram, or Columns.
Simple yet powerful logic suitable for scalping, intraday, and swing trading.
Works across all markets (forex, crypto, stocks, commodities).
💡 How to Use
Look for Volume Spikes — sudden increases in volume often mark exhaustion or breakout points.
Check Momentum Direction — combine with volume to confirm reversals.
Entry/Exit:
Buy when a green triangle (🔺) appears below the bar.
Sell when a red triangle (🔻) appears above the bar.
Optional Filters: For improved accuracy, combine with RSI, Stochastic, or trend filters (e.g., EMA200).

## 🎯 What is a Pinbar?
A **Pinbar (Pin Bar/Pinocchio Bar)** is a single candlestick pattern that indicates a potential price reversal:
### Bullish Pinbar (BUY Signal)
- **Long lower wick** (rejection of lower prices)
- **Small body at the top** of the candle
- Shows buyers rejected sellers' attempt to push price down
- Forms at support levels or swing lows
- Entry signal for LONG positions
### Bearish Pinbar (SELL Signal)
- **Long upper wick** (rejection of higher prices)
- **Small body at the bottom** of the candle
- Shows sellers rejected buyers' attempt to push price up
- Forms at resistance levels or swing highs
- Entry signal for SHORT positions
---
## 🔧 How the Indicator Works
### 1. **Pinbar Detection Logic**
The indicator analyzes the **previous closed bar ** to identify pinbar patterns:
```
Bullish Pinbar Requirements:
- Lower wick > 72% of total candle range (adjustable)
- Upper wick < 28% of total candle range
- Close > Open (bullish candle body)
Bearish Pinbar Requirements:
- Upper wick > 72% of total candle range (adjustable)
- Lower wick < 28% of total candle range
- Close < Open (bearish candle body)
```
**Why check ?** By analyzing the previous completed bar, we ensure the pattern is fully formed and won't change, preventing repainting.
---
### 2. **Three-Layer Filter System**
#### 🔍 **Filter #1: ATR (Average True Range) Filter**
- **Purpose**: Ensures the pinbar has significant size
- **Function**: Only signals if pinbar range ≥ ATR value
- **Benefit**: Filters out small, insignificant pinbars
- **Settings**:
- Enable/Disable toggle
- ATR Period (default: 7)
**Example**: If ATR = 50 pips, only pinbars with 50+ pip range will signal.
---
#### 🔍 **Filter #2: SWING Filter** (Always Active)
- **Purpose**: Confirms pinbar forms at swing highs/lows
- **Function**: Validates the pinbar is an absolute high/low
- **Benefit**: Identifies true reversal points
- **Settings**:
- Swing Candles (default: 3)
**How it works**:
- For bullish pinbar: Checks if low is lowest of past 3 bars
- For bearish pinbar: Checks if high is highest of past 3 bars
**Example**: With 3 swing candles, a bullish pinbar must have the lowest low among the last 3 bars.
---
#### 🔍 **Filter #3: RSI (Relative Strength Index) Filter**
- **Purpose**: Confirms momentum conditions
- **Function**: Prevents signals in extreme momentum zones
- **Benefit**: Avoids counter-trend trades
- **Settings**:
- Enable/Disable toggle
- RSI Period (default: 7)
- RSI Source (Close, Open, High, Low, HL2, HLC3, OHLC4)
- Overbought Level (default: 70)
- Oversold Level (default: 30)
**Logic**:
- Bullish Pinbar: Only signals if RSI < 70 (not overbought)
- Bearish Pinbar: Only signals if RSI > 30 (not oversold)
---
### 3. **Stop Loss Calculation**
Two methods available:
#### Method A: ATR-Based Stop Loss (Recommended)
```
Bullish Pinbar:
SL = Pinbar Low - (1 × ATR)
Bearish Pinbar:
SL = Pinbar High + (1 × ATR)
```
**Benefit**: Dynamic stops that adapt to market volatility
#### Method B: Fixed Pips Stop Loss
```
Bullish Pinbar:
SL = Pinbar Low - (Fixed Pips)
Bearish Pinbar:
SL = Pinbar High + (Fixed Pips)
```
**Settings**:
- Calculate Stop with ATR (toggle)
- Stop Pips without ATR (default: 5)
---
### 4. **Take Profit Calculation**
Take Profit is calculated based on Risk:Reward ratio:
```
Bullish Trade:
TP = Entry + (Entry - SL) × Risk:Reward Ratio
Bearish Trade:
TP = Entry - (SL - Entry) × Risk:Reward Ratio
```
**Example**:
- Entry: 1.2000
- SL: 1.1950 (50 pip risk)
- RR: 2:1
- TP: 1.2100 (100 pip reward = 50 × 2)
**Settings**:
- Risk:Reward Ratio (default: 1.0, range: 0.1 to 10.0)
---

## 🚫 Non-Repainting Architecture
### What is Repainting?
**Repainting** occurs when an indicator's historical signals differ from what appeared in real-time. This makes backtesting unreliable and can lead to false confidence in a strategy.
### How This Indicator Prevents Repainting
1. **Closed Bar Analysis**
- All calculations use ` ` offset (previous bar)
- Only analyzes COMPLETED candles
- Signals appear on the bar AFTER the pinbar closes
2. **Confirmed Swing Points**
- Waits for sufficient bar history before signaling
- Only checks historical bars that cannot change
- Prevents premature swing detection
3. **Static Alert Timing**
- Alerts fire only after bar completion
- No conditional logic that changes historically
- Same results in replay mode and live trading
### Verification Method
To verify non-repainting behavior:
1. Apply indicator to chart
2. Note signal locations and prices
3. Refresh browser / reload chart
4. **Signals remain in exact same locations**
---
## 💼 Trading Strategy Guidelines
### Entry Rules
**For Bullish Pinbar (LONG):**
1. Wait for green triangle to appear
2. Enter at close of pinbar (shown in label)
3. Alternative: Enter on break of pinbar high
4. Place stop loss at red SL line
5. Set target at green TP line
**For Bearish Pinbar (SHORT):**
1. Wait for red triangle to appear
2. Enter at close of pinbar (shown in label)
3. Alternative: Enter on break of pinbar low
4. Place stop loss at red SL line
5. Set target at green TP line
### Risk Management
- **Position Sizing**: Risk only 1-2% of account per trade
- **Stop Loss**: Always use the calculated SL (never move it wider)
- **Take Profit**: Use calculated TP or trail stop after 1:1 RR
- **Multiple Timeframes**: Confirm signals on higher timeframe
### Best Practices
✅ **DO:**
- Wait for bar to close before entering
- Trade in direction of higher timeframe trend
- Use on liquid markets with clear support/resistance
- Combine with price action analysis
- Keep a trading journal
❌ **DON'T:**
- Enter before bar closes (prevents seeing full pattern)
- Trade against strong trends
- Ignore the filters (they improve win rate)
- Risk more than 2% per trade
- Trade every signal (be selective)

## 🎓 Understanding the Filters
### Why Use Multiple Filters?
Single-indicator systems often generate too many false signals. This indicator uses a **confluence approach**:
1. **Pinbar Pattern** = Price rejection detected
2. **+ SWING Filter** = Rejection at key level
3. **+ ATR Filter** = Significant move
4. **+ RSI Filter** = Favorable momentum
**Result**: Higher probability setups with better risk:reward
### Filter Optimization
**Conservative Settings** (Fewer, Higher Quality Signals):
- ATR Filter: ON
- Swing Candles: 5
- RSI Filter: ON
- Shadow %: 75%
**Aggressive Settings** (More Signals, More Noise):
- ATR Filter: OFF
- Swing Candles: 2
- RSI Filter: OFF
- Shadow %: 65%
**Balanced Settings** (Recommended):
- ATR Filter: ON
- Swing Candles: 3
- RSI Filter: OFF (or ON for trending markets)
- Shadow %: 72%
---
## 🔍 Troubleshooting
### "No Signals Appearing"
**Possible Causes:**
1. Filters are too strict
2. No pinbars forming on chart
3. Insufficient bar history
**Solutions:**
- Reduce Shadow % to 65%
- Reduce Swing Candles to 2
- Disable ATR or RSI filters temporarily
- Check that chart has enough data loaded
### "Too Many Signals"
**Solutions:**
- Enable ATR filter
- Increase Swing Candles to 4-5
- Enable RSI filter
- Increase Shadow % to 75-80%
### "Signals Appearing Late"
**This is normal behavior!** The indicator:
- Analyzes previous closed bar
- Signals appear on the bar AFTER the pinbar
- This is what prevents repainting
- Signal latency is 1 bar (by design)

Directional Volume Cloud MTFThe Directional Volume Cloud MTF transforms raw volume into a visually intuitive cloud histogram that highlights directional bias and exhaustion zones.
🔍 Core Logic
- Volume bias is calculated using candle direction (bullish/bearish) and smoothed via EMA.
- Bias strength is normalized against average volume to produce a ratio from -1 to +1.
- Color and opacity dynamically reflect bias direction and strength — pale clouds indicate weak volume, while vivid clouds signal strong conviction.
Features
- Customizable bullish/bearish colors
- Dynamic opacity based on volume strength
- Declining volume signals for potential reversals
- Multi-timeframe bias overlay (e.g., daily bias on intraday chart)
📈 Use Cases
- Spot volume exhaustion before reversals
- Confirm breakout strength with bias intensity
- Compare short-term vs long-term volume pressure
Whether you're scalping intraday moves or validating swing setups, this cloud-based volume heatmap offers a clean, modular way to visualize market conviction.
Premium/Discount Zones with Confirmation Signals📌 Indicator Description: Premium/Discount Zones with Confirmed Signals
This indicator identifies dynamic Premium, Discount, and Equilibrium zones based on recent swing highs and lows, helping traders visualize where price is considered expensive, cheap, or fair value. It’s designed for Smart Money Concepts (SMC), ICT-style trading, and anyone who values precision in zone-based analysis.
🔍 Key Features
Swing-Based Zones: Automatically detects swing highs/lows over a customizable lookback period (default: 48 bars — equivalent to 2 days on a 1-hour chart).
Premium & Discount Levels: Define overbought and oversold zones using percentage inputs (default: 25%).
Equilibrium Band (middle): Highlights the no-trade value zone with adjustable width (default: 5%).
Signal Engine: Generates trade signals based on two styles:
Bounce: Reversal signals when price reacts to a zone and confirms direction.
Breakout: Continuation signals when price breaks through a zone with momentum.
Trade Type Selector: Choose between Bounce, Breakout, or Both from the input menu.
Signal Filtering: Limits signals to one per direction at a time to reduce noise.
Visual Styling: Toggle between colored or monochrome themes for clean charting.
🧠 How It Works
Buy signals appear when price confirms strength from the discount zone or breaks above the premium zone.
Sell signals appear when price confirms weakness from the premium zone or breaks below the discount zone.
All signals include a built-in 3-bar confirmation delay to reduce false triggers.
🎯 Ideal For
Traders using SMC, ICT, or price action strategies
Zone-based scalping, swing trading, or intraday setups

Halt-Risk Guard (5-min / 10%) — TTP Safe🛑 Halt-Risk Guard (5-min / 10%) — TTP Safe
Stay clear of halts, invalidations, and over-extended moves.
🔍 Overview
The Halt-Risk Guard helps traders avoid sudden invalidations by monitoring price velocity over the past X minutes (default: 5 min) and flagging when moves exceed a configurable threshold (default: 10%).
Originally built to meet Trade The Pool (TTP) risk-management rules — where even non-halted 10% moves can void trades — this tool provides a clear, visual warning system and optional entry blocker.
⚙️ Key Features
✅ Halt-Risk Detection – Calculates both reference-based and swing-based (high↔low) percentage change over the chosen lookback period.
✅ TTP Safe Mode – “Swing mode” captures extreme volatility spikes that may invalidate trades even when the market stays open.
✅ Entry Blocker (optional) – Automatically greys candles and dims the background during risky conditions to prevent impulsive entries.
✅ Customisable Positioning – Move the on-chart info box to any corner of your chart (Top Left / Top Right / Bottom Left / Bottom Right).
✅ Clean Alerts –
⚠️ At/Above Threshold
✅ Back to Safe
⛔ Entry Blocker Active
✅ Visual Table Display – Compact dashboard shows current % move, lookback window, and threshold with intuitive green/red status.
✅ Strategy-Ready Output – A hidden 0/1 plot lets you block or filter trades in automated systems.
⚡ How It Works
Monitors the selected symbol using your chosen computation timeframe (recommended 1-minute).
Evaluates either:
REF mode: Close-to-close change over the lookback window.
SWING mode: High-to-low range within the same window.
If the move ≥ Threshold %, the script highlights a halt-risk condition and optionally activates the entry blocker.
🎨 Recommended Settings
Lookback: 5 minutes
Threshold: 10 %
Swing mode: ON (TTP-safe)
Computation timeframe: 1 minute
Entry blocker: ON
Dim background: ON
🧠 Use Cases
TTP and other prop-firm evaluations enforcing price-movement limits.
Volatility-based scalping systems to avoid chasing extended candles.
Strategy filters for algorithmic entries (e.g. pause trading during halt-risk windows).
⚠️ Disclaimer
This tool provides visual and alert-based guidance only. It does not guarantee compliance with any specific firm’s rules or eliminate trading risk. Always verify thresholds and rules with your broker or evaluation provider.

How to Use
1. Precision Support & Resistance
Treat 4/8 (mid) as pivot, 0/8 & 8/8 as extremes. Price often reverses or accelerates at these levels.
2. Mean Reversion Trades
Buy near 0/8–1/8 (oversold), sell near 7/8–8/8 (overbought) when MA is flat or sloping mildly.
3. Trend Continuation
When MA angle > threshold and price breaks 5/8, expect move to 8/8. Confirm with volume.
4. Breakout Entries
Watch for close beyond 8/8 or 0/8 + MA angle steep → strong momentum breakout.
5. Scalping with 1/32 Grid
Use 1/32 lines as micro-targets in ranging markets or after news spikes.
6. Volume-Weighted Fair Value
RVWAP = true average price paid over time → anchor for institutional fair value.

21 SMA over 200 SMA Bullish Cross Highlighter21 SMA Over 200 SMA — Momentum Cross for BTC Scalpers
A precise and lightweight indicator designed to highlight when short-term momentum aligns with the broader Bitcoin trend.
It visualizes when the 21-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) crosses above the 200-period SMA, often signaling the beginning of a sustained directional move — especially effective on the 1-minute BTC chart during trending market conditions.
Core Concept
When the 21 SMA crosses above the 200 SMA on Bitcoin during an active uptrend, the probability increases that price will continue rising as short-term traders and algorithms join the move.
This indicator helps you identify that momentum shift in real time and react before the breakout gains full traction.
Features
Clear visual label for every bullish cross (21↑200)
Optional bearish cross labels (21↓200)
Optimized for 1m, 5m, and 15m BTC charts
Lightweight and efficient — ideal for multi-chart scalping layouts
Built-in alert conditions for manual alert setup
Excellent synergy with VRVP (Visible Range Volume Profile) for confirming volume-based breakout zones
Suggested Use
Focus on the 1-minute Bitcoin chart for early signals.
When a bullish cross appears, use VRVP to locate high-volume nodes or breakout levels for precise entries.
Confirm alignment on 5m or 15m charts before executing.
Combine with RSI, Stoch RSI, or volume analysis to refine timing and manage risk.
Trading Insight
The 21/200 SMA relationship has long been a trusted tool for trend identification.
When both averages slope upward and the cross occurs above a strong VRVP volume zone, it often marks the start of a new impulsive leg in BTC ideal for short-term scalps or the first confirmation of a broader trend continuation.
Created for disciplined BTC scalpers who value structured setups, clarity, and confirmation through data rather than noise.
