Solar Cycle (SOLAR)SOLAR: SOLAR CYCLE
🔍 OVERVIEW AND PURPOSE
The Solar Cycle indicator is an astronomical calculator that provides precise values representing the seasonal position of the Sun throughout the year. This indicator maps the Sun's position in the ecliptic to a normalized value ranging from -1.0 (winter solstice) through 0.0 (equinoxes) to +1.0 (summer solstice), creating a continuous cycle that represents the seasonal progression throughout the year.
The implementation uses high-precision astronomical formulas that include orbital elements and perturbation terms to accurately calculate the Sun's position. By converting chart timestamps to Julian dates and applying standard astronomical algorithms, this indicator achieves significantly greater accuracy than simplified seasonal approximations. This makes it valuable for traders exploring seasonal patterns, agricultural commodities trading, and natural cycle-based trading strategies.
🧩 CORE CONCEPTS
Seasonal cycle integration: Maps the annual solar cycle (365.242 days) to a continuous wave
Continuous phase representation: Provides a normalized -1.0 to +1.0 value
Astronomical precision: Uses perturbation terms and high-precision constants for accurate solar position
Key points detection: Identifies solstices (±1.0) and equinoxes (0.0) automatically
The Solar Cycle indicator differs from traditional seasonal analysis tools by incorporating precise astronomical calculations rather than using simple calendar-based approximations. This approach allows traders to identify exact seasonal turning points and transitions with high accuracy.
⚙️ COMMON SETTINGS AND PARAMETERS
Pro Tip: While the indicator itself doesn't have adjustable parameters, it's most effective when used on higher timeframes (daily or weekly charts) to visualize seasonal patterns. Consider combining it with commodity price data to analyze seasonal correlations.
🧮 CALCULATION AND MATHEMATICAL FOUNDATION
Simplified explanation:
The Solar Cycle indicator calculates the Sun's ecliptic longitude and transforms it into a sine wave that peaks at the summer solstice and troughs at the winter solstice, with equinoxes at the zero crossings.
Technical formula:
Convert chart timestamp to Julian Date:
JD = (time / 86400000.0) + 2440587.5
Calculate Time T in Julian centuries since J2000.0:
T = (JD - 2451545.0) / 36525.0
Calculate the Sun's mean longitude (L0) and mean anomaly (M), including perturbation terms:
L0 = (280.46646 + 36000.76983T + 0.0003032T²) % 360
M = (357.52911 + 35999.05029T - 0.0001537T² - 0.00000025T³) % 360
Calculate the equation of center (C):
C = (1.914602 - 0.004817T - 0.000014*T²)sin(M) +
(0.019993 - 0.000101T)sin(2M) +
0.000289sin(3M)
Calculate the Sun's true longitude and convert to seasonal value:
λ = L0 + C
seasonal = sin(λ)
🔍 Technical Note: The implementation includes terms for the equation of center to account for the Earth's elliptical orbit. This provides more accurate timing of solstices and equinoxes compared to simple harmonic approximations.
📈 INTERPRETATION DETAILS
The Solar Cycle indicator provides several analytical perspectives:
Summer Solstice (+1.0): Maximum solar elevation, longest day
Winter Solstice (-1.0): Minimum solar elevation, shortest day
Vernal Equinox (0.0 crossing up): Day and night equal length, spring begins
Autumnal Equinox (0.0 crossing down): Day and night equal length, autumn begins
Transition rates: Steepest near equinoxes, flattest near solstices
Cycle alignment: Market cycles that align with seasonal patterns may show stronger trends
Confirmation points: Solstices and equinoxes often mark important seasonal turning points
⚠️ LIMITATIONS AND CONSIDERATIONS
Geographic relevance: Solar cycle timing is most relevant for temperate latitudes
Market specificity: Seasonal effects vary significantly across different markets
Timeframe compatibility: Most effective for longer-term analysis (weekly/monthly)
Complementary tool: Should be used alongside price action and other indicators
Lead/lag effects: Market reactions to seasonal changes may precede or follow astronomical events
Statistical significance: Seasonal patterns should be verified across multiple years
Global markets: Consider opposite seasonality in Southern Hemisphere markets

TK47 36 ChambersTK47 36 Chambers is a precision-crafted EMA (Exponential Moving Average) tool designed to help traders align with multi-timeframe trends while keeping price action clear and uncluttered. Built around the powerful 36 EMA, this script plots the current timeframe’s high, low, and median EMAs as a visual "chamber" or cloud, giving instant feedback on intrabar dynamics.
Shoutout to Insilico, who introduced the 36 EMA as a core trend-following tool — this indicator wouldn’t exist without that spark.
How It Works
Core EMA:
The central element is the 36-period EMA, applied to close, high, and low prices on your current chart.
These three EMAs form a channel or “chamber” that acts as a dynamic zone of control.
The cloud between the high and low EMA can optionally be filled to help visualize volatility.
Higher Timeframe EMAs (HTF EMAs):
Optionally displays Daily, Weekly, 4H, and 1H EMAs (all using the same configurable EMA length, default: 36).
These are interpolated smoothly between HTF candles, creating elegant transitions and avoiding jumpy plotting.
Helps traders spot broader trend bias directly on lower timeframe charts without switching views.
Customizations
Adjustable colors for each EMA layer (current + HTFs).
Toggle cloud fill on/off.
Toggle visibility of each HTF line.
Option to show labels at the edge of the chart (e.g., “W” for Weekly) for clarity.
Use Cases
Confirming trend direction across multiple timeframes.
Identifying pullback entries or mean reversion zones.
Combining with candlestick patterns, liquidity sweeps, or oscillator divergence for high-probability entries.
Notes
All EMAs use the same configurable length to keep things clean and consistent.
Interpolation ensures the HTF EMAs remain smooth and aligned with the LTF candles.
The fill between high and low EMA gives a visual representation of the market’s breathing room — useful for spotting expansions and contractions.
Context MTF [Th16rry]Context MTF
A multi-timeframe trend context indicator that overlays an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and a Weighted Moving Average (WMA) whose look-back periods adapt automatically to your chart’s timeframe. Inspired by Mike Bellafore and Brian Shannon (Multi timeframe analysis)
🔍 Overview
Context MTF helps you quickly gauge the prevailing trend and its strength by plotting two complementary moving averages in a single view:
* EMA (solid line) for smooth, responsive trend direction
* WMA (dotted line) for emphasis on recent price action
By automatically selecting period lengths that reflect meaningful market cycles, Context MTF provides intuitive context at a glance:

Opening Range and Market BoundariesOpening Range and Market Boundaries
This versatile and insightful indicator combines two powerful concepts frequently used by professional traders: Opening Range Analysis and Market Boundaries derived from previous high/low levels. It is specifically designed to support intraday trading strategies and helps you identify key price zones for entries, exits, and breakout confirmations.
🔍 Features & Utility
1. Opening Range Box
What it does:
Highlights the high and low of the first candle after market open (9:15 AM IST) with a shaded box. This box spans the full trading session, from 9:15 AM to 3:30 PM, representing the key price range where the initial balance is formed.
Timeframe Compatibility:
The Opening Range box is optimized for 1-minute to 1-hour charts. It is most effective on lower timeframes (1m, 5m, 15m, 30m) where intraday price movements and breakout patterns can be clearly observed.
Usage Tips:
Breakouts above or below the Opening Range box can signal potential directional bias for the rest of the trading day.
Price consolidating within the range may indicate a choppy or range-bound session.
Works well with volume and momentum indicators for confirmation.
2. Market Boundaries
What it does:
Plots horizontal lines at:
Previous Day High/Low
Previous Week High/Low
Previous Month High/Low
Why it matters:
These levels act as natural support and resistance zones, and are commonly watched by institutional traders, making them crucial for:
Spotting reversals or breakouts
Planning stop-loss and target zones
Avoiding trades around high-rejection areas
Customization Options:
Toggle ON/OFF for Daily, Weekly, and Monthly levels.
Independent colors and line thickness for each level, enabling you to distinguish between different timeframes easily.
🛠️ How to Use Effectively
Use during market open:
Switch to a 5-minute or 15-minute chart during the first few candles of the session. Observe the Opening Range box formation and plan trades based on breakout direction.
Confluence Trading:
Look for price action near previous session highs/lows in confluence with the Opening Range box edges. These intersections often become high-probability zones for breakouts or reversals.
Session Preparation:
Before the market opens, analyze where the price is relative to past high/low boundaries. If it's near a weekly/monthly level, be cautious — those areas can cause whipsaws or false breakouts.
Avoid low-volume breakouts:
Use this indicator in conjunction with volume tools or price action confirmation to validate the strength of a move outside the Opening Range or Market Boundaries.
📌 Summary
This indicator is designed for intraday traders, scalpers, and swing traders who want a reliable structure to guide their decisions. It visually marks the opening balance of the market and essential higher timeframe boundaries, helping you trade with discipline and precision.
Stochastics + VixFix Buy/Sell SignalsThis script is designed for long-term investors using ETFs on a weekly timeframe, where catching high-probability bottoms is the goal. It combines the Stochastic Oscillator with the Williams VixFix to identify moments of extreme fear and potential reversals.
A Buy signal is triggered when:
Stochastic %K drops below 20
VixFix forms a green spike (suggesting a panic-driven market flush)
A Sell signal is triggered when:
Stochastic %K rises above 90
VixFix falls below 5 (indicating excessive complacency)
Catching tops is much harder than catching bottoms.
These Sell signals are not designed to fully exit positions. Instead, they suggest trimming a small portion of ETF holdings — simply to free up liquidity for future opportunities.
This strategy is ideal for:
Long-term ETF investors
Weekly charts
Systematic decision-making in volatile markets
Use in conjunction with macro indicators, sector rotation, and valuation frameworks for best results.
Fibonacci + TP/SL Strategy [Backtest]✅ Key Features Added and Adjusted:
Fibonacci Retracement Levels:

Buy/Sell Signal Logic:
Buy: Price is between 78.6% and 38.2% levels
Sell: Price is between 61.8% and 23.6% levels
Both depend on a can_trade time filter to avoid overtrading
ATR-based Stop-Loss:
Stop-loss dynamically adapts to market volatility:
SL = Entry - ATR * 1.5 (long)
SL = Entry + ATR * 1.5 (short)
Fixed Take-Profit:
Configurable via input: default is 4%

VWAP table with color
## 📊 VWAP Table with Color – Clear VWAP Deviation at a Glance
This script displays a **VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price)** table in a non-intrusive, color-coded panel on your chart. It helps you **quickly assess where the current price stands relative to VWAP**, classified into sigma bands (standard deviations). The goal is to provide valuable VWAP insight **without cluttering the chart with multiple lines**.
---
### 🔍 Purpose & Concept
VWAP is a powerful tool used by institutional traders to measure the average price an asset has traded at throughout the day, based on both volume and price.
In this script:
- We **do not plot traditional VWAP lines** with multiple ±1σ, ±2σ, etc., on the chart.
- Instead, we **summarize VWAP and its relative position in a table**, color-coded by deviation.
- This provides the **same information**, but in a **cleaner, minimal, and visually digestible format**.
---
### 🧠 VWAP Deviation Classification
The script calculates how far the current price is from the VWAP, in units of **standard deviation (σ)**.
The formula is:
```plaintext
VWAP Delta σ = (Current Price - VWAP) / Standard Deviation
```
This gives you a normalized value for deviation from VWAP, and it is **clamped between -3 and +3** to avoid extreme outliers.
Each range is color-coded and classified as:
| VWAP Δσ | Zone | Interpretation | Color |
|---------|---------------|------------------------------------------|--------------|
| -3σ | Far Below | Strongly below VWAP – potentially oversold | 🔴 Red |
| -2σ | Below | Below VWAP – bearish territory | 🟠 Orange |
| -1σ | Slightly Below| Slightly under VWAP – weak signal | 🟡 Yellow |
| 0σ | At VWAP | Price is around VWAP – neutral zone | ⚪ Gray |
| +1σ | Slightly Above| Slightly above VWAP – weak bullish | 🟢 Lime Green |
| +2σ | Above | Above VWAP – bullish signal | 🟢 Green |
| +3σ | Far Above | Strongly above VWAP – potentially overbought | 🟦 Teal |
This **compact summary in the table** provides a clear situational view while keeping the chart clean.
---
### ⚙️ User Customization
Users can configure:
- **VWAP σ Multiplier** (default 0.1) to set the width of the optional VWAP band on the chart.
- **Table Position** (Top Center, Bottom Right, etc.).
- **Text Size** and **Text Color**.
- **Hide VWAP logic**: VWAP data can be hidden automatically on higher timeframes (e.g., daily or weekly).
- **Enable/disable the VWAP ±σ band lines** (optional visual aid).
---
### 📐 Technical Highlights
- VWAP is recalculated each day using `ta.vwap(hlc3, isNewPeriod, 1)`.
- The band width uses standard deviation and the selected multiplier: `VWAP ± σ * multiplier`.
- Table updates dynamically with the new VWAP values each day.
- To **avoid floating-point rounding issues**, `vwapDelta` is rounded before comparison, ensuring correct background color display.
---
### ✅ Why Use This?
- Keeps your chart **visually clean and readable**.
- Gives **immediate context** to current price action relative to VWAP.
- Helps **discretionary traders** or **scalpers** decide whether price is stretched too far from the mean.
- Easier than tracking multiple σ bands manually.
---
### Example Usage:
- On intraday timeframes, you can identify price exhaustion as it hits ±2σ or ±3σ.
- On a 5-minute chart, if price touches `+3σ`, you may consider taking profits on longs.
- On reversal setups, watch for price at `-3σ` with bullish divergence.
---
### 🧩 Future Enhancements (Optional Ideas)
- Add alerts for when `vwapDelta` crosses thresholds like ±2σ or ±3σ.
- Let user select the timeframe for VWAP source (e.g., 1H, 5M, etc.).
- Extend to display VWAP on session or weekly basis.

Quarterly Theory ICT 04 [TradingFinder] SSMT 4Quarter Divergence🔵 Introduction
Sequential SMT Divergence is an advanced price-action-based analytical technique rooted in the ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodology. Its primary objective is to identify early-stage divergences between correlated assets within precise time structures. This tool not only breaks down market structure but also enables traders to detect engineered liquidity traps before the market reacts.
In simple terms, SMT (Smart Money Technique) occurs when two correlated assets—such as indices (ES and NQ), currency pairs (EURUSD and GBPUSD), or commodities (Gold and Silver)—exhibit different reactions at key price levels (swing highs or lows). This lack of alignment is often a sign of smart money manipulation and signals a lack of confirmation in the ongoing trend—hinting at an imminent reversal or at least a pause in momentum.
In its Sequential form, SMT divergences are examined through a more granular temporal lens—between intraday quarters (Q1 through Q4). When SMT appears at the transition from one quarter to another (e.g., Q1 to Q2 or Q3 to Q4), the signal becomes significantly more powerful, often aligning with a critical phase in the Quarterly Theory—a framework that segments market behavior into four distinct phases: Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, and Reversal/Continuation.
For instance, a Bullish SMT forms when one asset prints a new low while its correlated counterpart fails to break the corresponding low from the previous quarter. This usually indicates absorption of selling pressure and the beginning of accumulation by smart money. Conversely, a Bearish SMT arises when one asset makes a higher high, but the second asset fails to confirm, signaling distribution or a fake-out before a decline.
However, SMT alone is not enough. To confirm a true Market Structure Break (MSB), the appearance of a Precision Swing Point (PSP) is essential—a specific candlestick formation on a lower timeframe (typically 5 to 15 minutes) that reveals the entry of institutional participants. The combination of SMT and PSP provides a more accurate entry point and better understanding of premium and discount zones.
The Sequential SMT Indicator, introduced in this article, dynamically scans charts for such divergence patterns across multiple sessions. It is applicable to various markets including Forex, crypto, commodities, and indices, and shows particularly strong performance during mid-week sessions (Wednesdays and Thursdays)—when most weekly highs and lows tend to form.
Bullish Sequential SMT :
Bearish Sequential SMT :
🔵 How to Use
The Sequential SMT (SSMT) indicator is designed to detect time and structure-based divergences between two correlated assets. This divergence occurs when both assets print a similar swing (high or low) in the previous quarter (e.g., Q3), but in the current quarter (e.g., Q4), only one asset manages to break that swing level—while the other fails to reach it.
This temporal mismatch is precisely identified by the SSMT indicator and often signals smart money activity, a market phase transition, or even the presence of an engineered liquidity trap. The signal becomes especially powerful when paired with a Precision Swing Point (PSP)—a confirming candle on lower timeframes (5m–15m) that typically indicates a market structure break (MSB) and the entry of smart liquidity.
🟣 Bullish Sequential SMT
In the previous quarter, both assets form a similar swing low.
In the current quarter, one asset (e.g., EURUSD) breaks that low and trades below it.
The other asset (e.g., GBPUSD) fails to reach the same low, preserving the structure.
This time-based divergence reflects declining selling pressure, potential absorption, and often marks the end of a manipulation phase and the start of accumulation. If confirmed by a bullish PSP candle, it offers a strong long opportunity, with stop-losses defined just below the swing low.
🟣 Bearish Sequential SMT
In the previous quarter, both assets form a similar swing high.
In the current quarter, one asset (e.g., NQ) breaks above that high.
The other asset (e.g., ES) fails to reach that high, remaining below it.
This type of divergence signals weakening bullish momentum and the likelihood of distribution or a fake-out before a price drop. When followed by a bearish PSP candle, it sets up a strong shorting opportunity with targets in the discount zone and protective stops placed above the swing high.

🔵 Conclusion
The Sequential SMT (SSMT) indicator is a powerful and precise tool for identifying structural divergences between correlated assets within a time-based framework. Unlike traditional divergence models that rely solely on sequential pivot comparisons, SSMT leverages Quarterly Theory, in combination with concepts like liquidity sweeps, market structure breaks (MSB) and precision swing points (PSP), to provide a deeper and more actionable view of market dynamics.
By using SSMT, traders gain not only the ability to identify where divergence occurs, but also when it matters most within the market cycle. This empowers them to anticipate major moves or traps before they fully materialize, and position themselves accordingly in high-probability trade zones.
Whether you're trading Forex, crypto, indices, or commodities, the true strength of this indicator is revealed when used in sync with the Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, and Reversal phases of the market. Integrated with other confluence tools and market models, SSMT can serve as a core component in a professional, rule-based, and highly personalized trading strategy.
Liquidity Zones Alerts"Liquidity Zones Alerts" is a powerful smart-money-based indicator designed to detect key liquidity grabs and provide high-probability reversal signals using a combination of market structure, volume, volatility, and candlestick confirmation.
🧠 How It Works
The core logic of this indicator is built around the Smart Money Concepts:
🔺 Liquidity Sweeps: Detects when price takes out previous daily or weekly highs/lows, suggesting stop hunts or engineered liquidity moves by institutional players.
📈 Volume Filter: Ensures signals only appear during above-average volume, filtering out noise and low-interest moves.
⚡ Volatility Filter: Flags high-range candles relative to the average, catching flash crashes/spikes that often precede strong reversals.
🔄 Engulfing Candle Confirmation: Confirms entry with a bullish or bearish engulfing pattern after liquidity is taken — increasing signal reliability.
