cephxs + fadi / HTF PSPHTF PSP - PRECISION SWING POINTS
Detect divergence-based Precision Swing Points (PSPs) across multiple higher timeframes with automatic correlated asset detection.
WHAT'S NEW (vs Original HTF Candles)
This indicator builds on @fadizeidan's excellent ICT HTF Candles foundation with significant new functionality, depending on who you ask of course:
✨ PSP Divergence Detection: Automatically identifies Precision Swing Points where price diverges from correlated assets—the original has no divergence analysis
✨ Auto Asset Correlation: Uses AssetCorrelationUtils library to detect and pair correlated assets (ES↔NQ↔DXY, BTC↔ETH, Gold↔Silver, etc.)—no manual setup required
✨ Multi-Asset Comparison: Tracks up to 3 correlated assets simultaneously with divergence relationships between all pairs
✨ Dynamic Asset Reordering: When you switch charts, the indicator automatically reorders assets so your chart is always primary
✨ Inverse Correlation Support: Properly handles inversely correlated assets like DXY (bullish DXY = bearish signal for risk assets)
✨ HTF Sweep Detection: New sweep line feature highlights when HTF candles take out previous highs/lows and close back inside. One of my followers asked me for this, there you go anon.
🔧 Streamlined to 3 HTFs: Focused design with 3 HTF slots (vs 6) for cleaner charts and better performance
The original remains excellent for pure HTF candle visualization. This version adds institutional flow analysis through divergence detection.
WHAT IT DOES
This indicator displays Higher Timeframe (HTF) candles to the right of your chart and highlights Precision Swing Points—pivots where price diverges from correlated assets. When ES makes a new high but NQ doesn't follow, or gold pushes higher while DXY fails to confirm, you're looking at institutional repositioning.
PSPs mark these moments on your HTF candles, giving you a clean visual signal for potential reversals.
HOW IT WORKS
Divergence Detection
The indicator compares price action between your chart and up to two correlated assets. A divergence occurs when one asset makes a directional move (bullish/bearish candle) while a correlated asset moves the opposite direction.
Three divergence relationships are tracked:
Primary vs Secondary (e.g., ES vs NQ)
Primary vs Tertiary (e.g., ES vs DXY)
Secondary vs Tertiary (e.g., NQ vs DXY)
PSP Confirmation
A candle is marked as a PSP when:
A divergence exists between correlated assets
A swing pivot forms (high > previous high AND high > next high, or vice versa for lows)
This dual confirmation filters noise and highlights only meaningful institutional activity.
Automatic Asset Detection
In Auto mode, the indicator uses the AssetCorrelationUtils library to detect your chart's asset class and automatically select the most relevant correlated pairs:
Indices: ES ↔ NQ ↔ DXY, YM ↔ ES ↔ NQ
Forex: EURUSD ↔ DXY ↔ GBPUSD, USDJPY ↔ DXY ↔ US10Y
Crypto: BTC ↔ ETH ↔ DXY
Metals: Gold ↔ Silver ↔ DXY
Energy: CL (Oil) ↔ NG ↔ DXY
HTF Sweep Detection
Sweeps are detected when an HTF candle (C2) takes out the high or low of the previous candle (C1) and then closes back inside. This marks liquidity grabs on the higher timeframe.
HOW TO USE
Enable HTF timeframes: Select 1-3 higher timeframes relevant to your trading style (e.g., 30m, 90m, 4H for intraday traders)
Watch for PSP candles: When a candle body color changes to the divergence color, a PSP has formed
Note the direction: Bullish divergence (your asset bullish while correlated asset bearish) suggests upside; bearish divergence suggests downside
Combine with LTF structure: Use PSPs as bias, then look for entry on lower timeframes (CHoCH, FVG, etc.)
Sweeps confirm liquidity: A sweep followed by a PSP is a strong reversal signal

BEST PRACTICES
Use PSPs as directional bias, not direct entries—wait for LTF confirmation
A PSP at a key level (previous day high, weekly open) carries more weight
Multiple PSPs across different HTFs pointing the same direction = stronger signal
Sweeps that fail to hold (sweep + PSP) often mark significant reversals
In Auto mode, trust the library's asset selection—it's been tuned for common correlations
DISCLAIMER
This indicator is for educational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice. Divergences and PSPs do not guarantee reversals—always use proper risk management and confirm signals with your own analysis. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Top 40 Best Performing Nasdaq Stocks with Advanced Stats ScreenWelcome to the CustomQuantLabs Advanced Stats Screener. This dashboard is designed for traders who need more than just price action—it provides a comprehensive, institutional-grade view of the "Top 40" performing assets in the Nasdaq (or any watchlist of your choice) at a single glance.
Instead of flipping through 40 different charts, this screener aggregates Performance Metrics and Advanced Statistical Risk Models into one clean, heatmap-style dashboard. It helps you instantly identify outliers, trend leaders, and potential mean-reversion setups.
Key Features
1. Multi-Timeframe Performance Heatmap Instantly spot momentum. The dashboard tracks returns across 5 key timeframes, color-coded with a dynamic heatmap (Bright Green for leaders, Bright Red for laggards):
Week% (Short-term momentum)
Month% & Quarter% (Medium-term trend)
6M% & 12M% (Long-term secular trend)
2. Institutional Risk Metrics (Advanced Stats) We go beyond simple percentage changes. This screener calculates complex statistical formulas for every single ticker in real-time:
Kelly Criterion (%): A money management formula used to determine optimal position size based on win probability and return ratio. A higher Kelly % suggests a statistically stronger "edge" based on recent history.
Sharpe Ratio: Measures risk-adjusted return. How much return are you getting for every unit of risk? (Values > 1.0 are generally considered good).
Sortino Ratio: Similar to Sharpe, but only penalizes downside volatility. This is crucial for distinguishing between "good volatility" (upside pumps) and "bad volatility" (crashes).
Z-Score: A mean-reversion metric. It measures how many standard deviations the current price is from its 20-day mean.
High Positive Z-Score (>2): Price may be overextended to the upside.
Low Negative Z-Score (<-2): Price may be oversold.
Volatility (%): A dynamic measure of the asset's daily range, helping you gauge the "personality" of the stock before entering.
Customization & Settings
Fully Customizable Watchlist: While pre-loaded with top Nasdaq performers (like NVDA, AMD, PLTR, MU), you can easily edit the "Symbols" input in the settings to track Crypto, Forex, or your own custom stock portfolio.
Smart Theme Detection: Includes a toggle for Dark Mode (ProjectSyndicate style) and Light Mode (Clean white style).
Compact Mode: You can toggle specific columns on or off to fit the table on smaller screens.
How to Use
Add the script to your chart.
Open Settings (Gear Icon).
Paste your list of 40 tickers into the "Ticker List" text area (separated by commas).
Use the Z-Score to find overbought/oversold setups and the Relative Strength (Week/Month) to find breakout candidates.
Disclaimer: This tool is for informational purposes only. The "Top 40" list requires manual updating if the market leaders change. All statistical metrics (Kelly, Sharpe, etc.) are based on historical data and do not guarantee future performance.

ANTS MVP Indicator David Ryan's Institutional Accumulation🚀 ANTS MVP Indicator – David Ryan's Legendary Accumulation Signal
Discover stocks under heavy **institutional buying** before they explode — just like 3-time U.S. Investing Champion David Ryan used to crush the markets!
This is a faithful, open-source recreation of the famous **ANTS (Momentum-Volume-Price)** pattern popularized by David Ryan (protégé of William O'Neil / IBD / CAN SLIM fame). It scans for the classic 15-day "MVP" setup that often appears in early stages of massive winners.
Key Features:
• Colored "Ants" diamonds show signal strength:
- Gray: Momentum only (12+ up days in 15)
- Yellow: Momentum + Volume surge (≥20% avg volume increase)
- Blue: Momentum + Price gain (≥20% rise)
- Green: FULL MVP (all three!) – the strongest institutional demand signal!
• Toggle to show ONLY green ants for cleaner charts
• Position ants above or below bars
• Built-in alert for NEW green ants (copy the alert condition or use alert() triggers)
• Optional background highlight + label on the last bar for quick spotting
Why ANTS Works:
- Flags consistent up-days + volume explosion + solid price advance
- Often clusters before major breakouts (cup-with-handle, flat bases, etc.)
- Used by pros to find leaders early (think NVDA, TSLA, CELH runs)
- Great for daily charts + combining with RS Rating, earnings growth, and market uptrends
How to Use:
1. Add to daily stock charts
2. Watch for GREEN ants (full MVP) in bases or near pivots
3. Wait for volume breakout above resistance for entry
4. Set alerts for "GREEN ANTS MVP detected!" to catch them live
Fully open code – feel free to tweak thresholds (lookback, % gains, etc.)!
Inspired by public descriptions from IBD, Deepvue, and Ryan's teachings.

#ANTS #DavidRyan #MVPPattern #InstitutionalAccumulation #CANSLIM #TradingView #MomentumTrading #StockScanner The time it takes for a stock to rise significantly after a green ANTS (full MVP) signal appears varies widely — there is no fixed or guaranteed timeframe. The ANTS indicator (developed by David Ryan) flags strong institutional accumulation over a rolling ~3-week (15-day) period, but the actual price breakout or major advance often comes later, after further consolidation or a proper setup.
Typical Timings from Real-World Usage and Examples
Short-term (days to weeks): Sometimes the green ants appear during or right at the start of a breakout — price can rise 10–30%+ in the following 1–4 weeks if momentum continues and volume supports it (e.g., Rocket Lab (RKLB) showed ANTS strength ahead of a powerful breakout in examples from IBD).
Medium-term (weeks to months): More commonly, green ants signal early accumulation while the stock is still building or tightening in a base (e.g., cup-with-handle, flat base, high tight flag, or pullback to 10/21 EMA). The big move (often 50–200%+) happens after the stock forms a proper buy point (pivot breakout on high volume), which can take 2–12 weeks after the first green ants.
Longer-term leaders: In historical CAN SLIM winners, ANTS often appeared during the stealth accumulation phase (before the stock became obvious), with the major multi-month/year run starting 1–6 months later once the market confirmed an uptrend and the stock broke out.
Key points from David Ryan/IBD sources:
ANTS is a demand confirmation tool, not a precise timing signal.
Many stocks with green ants are extended when the signal fires — wait for a pullback/consolidation before expecting the next leg up.
In strong bull markets, clusters of green ants over several bars increase the odds of an imminent or near-term move.
If no breakout follows within ~1–3 months (and market weakens), the signal may fizzle — cut losses or move on.
Bottom line: Expect 0–3 months for meaningful upside in good setups, but always wait for a classic buy point (breakout above resistance on volume) rather than buying the ants alone. Backtest examples (e.g., via TradingView replay on past leaders like NVDA, TSLA, or CELH during their runs) to see the lag in action.

Smart Auto-Step Open (1H Base)The "Big Brother" to the 15m Open: While the 15m Open is perfect for scalping entries, this indicator is designed for Trend Direction & Bias. It automatically identifies the major Hourly and Daily opening levels, giving you the "Big Picture" context instantly.
🧠 Smart Auto-Step Logic: This script detects your timeframe and automatically upgrades the level to the next major resistance:
Intraday Mode (1s – 1H): Locks to the 1-Hour Open. This is your primary "Bull/Bear" line for the session.
Swing Mode (4H): Automatically switches to the 4-Hour Open.
Daily Mode (D): Automatically switches to the Daily Open.
Noise Filter: Hides automatically on intermediate frames (like 2H or 3H) to keep your chart clean.
✨ Luxury Visuals:
Floating Labels: No ugly boxes. Text floats cleanly in the right-side margin.
Custom Typography: Includes a "Luxury" setting that uses Bold Serif Unicode characters (e.g., 𝟏𝐇 𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐧) for a high-end, institutional look.
Dark Mode Optimized: Defaulted to Bright White for maximum contrast.
🚀 Key Features:
Zero-Lag Anchor: Uses time-based coordinates to ensure the line never repaints.
Smart Visibility: Works perfectly even if you are viewing the 1H chart itself (prevents the "disappearing line" bug).
Price Tags: Displays the exact price with a $ symbol.
PRO Strategy (The "Confluence" Setup): Load this indicator together with the "15m Open" version.
When Price is above the 15m Open AND the 1H Open → Strong Buy Signal.
When Price is below both → Strong Sell Signal.
Settings:
Font Style: Modern, Luxury, or Hacker.
Offset: Move the label right/left.
Color: Fully customizable.
EMA200 Momentum ZoneEMA200 Momentum Zone is a clean and minimal momentum-based indicator designed for intraday trading and scalping.
The script combines:
EMA200 as a fair value and trend filter
Parabolic SAR for timing
MACD momentum cross for confirmation
ATR-based zone filter to avoid chop near EMA and late entries at extremes
ATR-based take profit projection for quick decision-making
The indicator highlights only those moments when price is inside the optimal momentum zone — not too close to the mean, and not too far from it.
How it works:
Buy signals appear only in bullish conditions above EMA200
Sell signals appear only in bearish conditions below EMA200
Signals are filtered by minimum and maximum ATR distance from EMA200
A visual take-profit line is drawn using 1× ATR and remains active for a limited number of bars
TP labels show the projected move shown as a percentage for instant evaluation
Recommended use:
Designed for 1-minute charts
Works best on indices, gold, and liquid futures
Can be used as a signal tool or a momentum scanner
Alerts are supported
Important note:
This indicator is for educational purposes only and does not provide financial advice.
Always manage risk and confirm signals with your own analysis.
Key levels by Chav3zNY-Time Anchored Sessions
Visualizes the Asia, London, and New York sessions using customizable boxes or high/low lines. Unlike standard session indicators, this tool uses the America/New York time zone to ensure your session start and end times remain accurate throughout Daylight Savings changes.
2. Dynamic HTF Key Levels (PDH/PDL, PWH/PWL, PMH/PML)
Automatically plots the Previous Daily, Weekly, and Monthly Highs and Lows.
Clean Intraday Origin: To prevent "chart clutter," these lines do not drag across the entire historical data. They originate at the start of the current day (NY Midnight), providing a clean horizontal reference for the current trading session.
Lookback Control: Choose how many days of historical key levels you want to remain visible on your chart.
3. Custom Time-Anchored Levels
Includes two fully customizable "Price Anchors" (e.g., Midnight Open, 09:30 AM NY Open).
Origin Point Precision: Lines start exactly at the candle of the specified time (e.g., 09:30) and extend forward, rather than drawing through the pre-market.
Price Capture: Choose to anchor to the Open, High, or Low of that specific timestamp.
4. Full Aesthetic Customization
Every level (Daily, Weekly, Monthly, and Custom) can be individually styled:
Color & Visibility: Set each level to your preferred color (Defaulted to Black for a clean look).
Line Style: Toggle between Solid, Dashed, or Dotted lines.
Thickness: Adjust the line width (1px, 2px, etc.) for better visibility on high-resolution screens.
How to Use
Midnight Open: Set Level 1 to 0000 to track the Daily Open, a crucial level for determining daily bias.

Supertrend + Stochastic StrategySUPERTREND + STOCHASTIC STRATEGY
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
📊 OVERVIEW
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
A professional trading indicator that combines the trend-following power of Supertrend with the momentum analysis of Stochastic Oscillator. This dual confirmation system helps traders identify high-probability entry and exit points by requiring both trend alignment and momentum confirmation.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🎯 HOW IT WORKS
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
The strategy uses two core components working together:
1. SUPERTREND INDICATOR (Trend Filter)
• Identifies the overall market direction
• Green line = Bullish trend
• Red line = Bearish trend
• Acts as the primary filter to avoid counter-trend trades
2. STOCHASTIC OSCILLATOR (Momentum Confirmation)
• Measures the strength of price movement
• K Line (fast) crosses D Line (slow) to generate signals
• Identifies oversold/overbought conditions
• Works behind the scenes to confirm trend changes
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
📈 SIGNAL LOGIC
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
BUY SIGNALS:
A buy signal is generated when ALL conditions are met:
✓ Supertrend changes from red to green (trend reversal)
✓ Price closes above the Supertrend line
✓ Stochastic K line crosses above D line
✓ Minimum distance from previous signal has passed
STRONG BUY SIGNALS:
Same as regular buy + coming from oversold zone (below 20)
• Considered more reliable
• Displayed as larger filled circle (●)
SELL SIGNALS:
A sell signal is generated when ALL conditions are met:
✓ Supertrend changes from green to red (trend reversal)
✓ Price closes below the Supertrend line
✓ Stochastic K line crosses below D line
✓ Minimum distance from previous signal has passed
STRONG SELL SIGNALS:
Same as regular sell + coming from overbought zone (above 80)
• Considered more reliable
• Displayed as larger filled circle (●)

US Recessions - ShadingThis indicator shades the chart background during every U.S. recession as dated by the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER). Recessions are defined using NBER’s business cycle peak-to-trough months, and the script shades from the peak month through the trough month (inclusive) using monthly boundaries.
What it does
* Applies a shaded overlay on your chart **only during recession periods**.
* Works on any symbol and any timeframe (crypto, equities, FX, commodities, bonds, indices).
* Includes options to:
- Toggle shading on/off
- Choose your preferred shading colour
- Adjust transparency for readability
Why this overlay is important for analysing any asset class
Even if you trade or invest in assets that aren’t directly tied to U.S. GDP (like crypto or commodities), U.S. recessions often coincide with major shifts in:
-Risk appetite (risk-on vs risk-off behaviour)
-Liquidity conditions (credit availability, financial stress)
-Interest-rate expectations and central bank response
-Earnings expectations and corporate defaults
-Volatility regimes (large, sustained changes in volatility)
Having recession shading directly on the price chart helps you quickly see whether price action is happening in a historically “normal” expansion environment, or in a macro regime where behaviour can change dramatically. This is particularly useful in a deeper analysis like comparing GOLD to SPX. This chart makes it clear how in recessions the S&P bleeds against Gold therefor making the concept more visual and better for understanding.
Of course this is just an example of how it can be used, there are plenty of other factors which can be overlayed like unemployment and interest rates for an even better understanding.

Imbalance & Liquidity SweepOverview:
The Imbalance & Liquidity Sweep indicator is a technical analysis tool designed to help traders visualize potential institutional footprints in price action. It combines two key Smart Money Concepts (SMC):
Fair Value Gaps (FVG / Imbalance Zones)
Liquidity Sweeps (Stop Run Detection)
All signals are filtered using a trend bias based on a configurable EMA. This helps reduce counter-trend noise and highlights areas of potential price interest.
This script is for educational and analytical purposes only.
How It Works:
1️⃣ Trend Filter (EMA)
A configurable EMA (default 200) is used as the trend filter.
The indicator highlights bullish structures above the EMA and bearish structures below.
Optional higher timeframe EMA allows better trend alignment.
2️⃣ Imbalance / Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detection
Detects gaps in a 3-candle sequence where price leaves unfilled areas.
Zones are dynamically drawn as boxes and automatically invalidated once price trades through them.
Helps traders visualize potential areas of price reaction.
3️⃣ Liquidity Sweep Detection
Monitors swing highs and lows over a user-defined lookback period.
A "sweep" occurs when price briefly pierces these levels but closes back inside, suggesting a potential stop-loss run.
Bullish sweeps occur above swing lows in an uptrend; bearish sweeps occur below swing highs in a downtrend.
4️⃣ Auto-Invalidation
FVG zones dynamically close when filled by price.
Keeps charts clean and relevant for intraday analysis.
How to Use:
Observe a liquidity sweep label near recent highs/lows.
Confirm alignment with EMA trend filter (green = uptrend, red = downtrend).
Monitor nearby FVG boxes as potential areas of interest for price interaction.
Note: This indicator does not provide buy or sell signals. It only provides visual decision-support.
This indicator does not repaint.
Inputs / Customization:
EMA Length & Timeframe
Lookback for Swing High/Low
FVG Box Color
FVG Forward Bars & Live Extension
Minimum Sweep Size (to filter minor noise)
Optional FVG Box Padding
Alerts:
Bullish Sweep Detected
Bearish Sweep Detected
Alerts can be configured for notifications or webhook integration for educational tracking.

RSI + KVO TriggerRSI + KVO Trigger is a momentum‑and‑volume indicator that combines a standard RSI with the Klinger Volume Oscillator’s trigger line in the same pane. It helps you see whether price momentum (RSI) and volume‑based money flow (KVO) are confirming each other or starting to diverge, using the same central 50/0 line for quick visual decisions.
-------------------------------
What the indicator shows.
In this script, the RSI 50 line is also the KVO “zero” line, so when:
RSI is above 50, price momentum is bullish.
KVO trigger is above that same line, volume/money flow is bullish.
Either one dipping below the line shows weakening in that dimension.
-------------------------------
Using it for entries.
You can think of the RSI as your main trend/momentum filter and the KVO trigger as confirmation (or a warning) from volume. Typical entry ideas:
Long setups:
RSI above 50 and rising, showing bullish momentum.
KVO trigger also above the midline or crossing up toward/through it, showing volume backing the move.
Extra aggressive: buy on pullbacks where RSI stays above 50 while KVO trigger turns back up above the line after a dip.
Short setups:
RSI below 50 and falling, showing bearish momentum.
KVO trigger below the midline or crossing down through it, showing selling pressure dominating.
Extra aggressive: short on bounces where RSI stays below 50 and KVO trigger rolls back down from near the midline.
-------------------------------------
Using it for exits and trade management.
You can also use the combination to manage open trades, watching for disagreement between price, RSI, and KVO. For example:
Exiting longs:
You’re in a long while RSI is above 50 and KVO trigger is above midline.
If KVO trigger drops below the midline first while RSI is still above 50, it can be an early warning that the trend is losing volume support, so you might tighten stops or scale out.
If RSI then also breaks below 50, that’s stronger confirmation to close the position or be very defensive.
Exiting shorts:
You’re in a short while RSI is below 50 and KVO trigger is below midline.
If KVO trigger pops above the midline ahead of RSI, it can signal selling pressure is fading; consider reducing size or tightening your stop.
A later RSI cross back above 50 can be your hard exit rule.
-------------------------------------
Divergences and “late‑trend” signals.
Because both lines share the same center level, it’s easy to spot situations where price is still trending but one of the components is lagging:
Bullish risk signal:
Price pushes higher, RSI stays above 50, but KVO trigger spends more time below the midline or fails to follow price higher.
This suggests a maturing/uptrend with weaker participation, making new longs riskier and encouraging partial profit‑taking or tighter stops.
Bearish risk signal:
Price makes lower lows, RSI stays below 50, but KVO trigger keeps drifting above the midline.
That can hint at hidden accumulation, where you might be more cautious with new shorts and watch for a trend reversal.
------------------------------------
Used this way, the indicator is not a standalone “buy/sell arrow,” but a structured way to demand agreement between momentum (RSI) and volume (KVO trigger) for entries, and to notice early when that agreement starts to break down for exits or risk management.
Weekly + Monthly Vertical Separator + LabelsA visual aid to organize your chart into clear time-based sections.
Vertical Dividers:
Distinct dashed lines for both new weeks and months.
Smart Labels:
Displays the Month name (Jan, Feb, etc.) and the Week number (W1, W2, etc.) at the top of the chart.
Hierarchy Logic:
Monthly indicators take priority to keep the chart clean.
CET/Berlin Time:
Perfectly synced for traders following European market sessions.
Candle Rush ProCandle Rush Pro highlights strong directional price moves formed by consecutive candles of the same direction.
The indicator tracks runs of bullish or bearish candles and measures the total price displacement of each run.
When the movement exceeds a user-defined threshold (in ticks/pipettes), it marks the chart with a clear visual signal.
🔹 Core features:
• Detects consecutive bullish and bearish candle runs
• Measures total displacement using Open–Close or High–Low range
• Signals only once per run (no repeated spam)
• Optional doji handling (ignore or break the run)
• Clean triangle markers anchored to candles
• Optional display of bar count per run
• Adjustable marker and text size
• Works on any timeframe and any symbol
• Non-repainting
🔹 Doji handling:
Users can choose whether doji candles should:
• Break the run
• Or be ignored (treated as neutral)
🔹 Typical use cases:
• Momentum detection
• Impulse move identification
• Breakout confirmation
• Trade filtering
• Market structure analysis
🔹 How it works:
A signal is plotted when:
• A minimum number of consecutive candles move in the same direction
• The total price displacement of the run exceeds the selected threshold
• The run has not already been signaled
This indicator does not predict direction.
It visually highlights significant directional price movement already in progress.
Best used together with:
• Trend filters
• Support & resistance
• Moving averages
• Market structure tools
Michael LipsiusTitle: Michael Multi-Timeframe Trend Dashboard (HTF Bias & LTF Execution)
Description:
Overview This indicator is a specialized Top-Down Analysis tool designed to assist traders in identifying the dominant market direction across multiple timeframes instantly. Built around the principles of Michael's Trading Strategy and institutional trend following, this dashboard eliminates the noise and provides a clear, color-coded directional bias (Prognosis) for both High Time Frame (HTF) structure and Low Time Frame (LTF) momentum.
Core Functionality The dashboard generates a real-time matrix displayed directly on the chart, analyzing price action relative to the 50-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA). This specific metric is chosen to filter out minor fluctuations and reveal the true institutional flow of money.
1. High Time Frame (HTF) Prognosis – The "Compass" The indicator monitors the Daily (D1) and 4-Hour (H4) timeframes to establish the macro trend.
Bullish 🟢: Price is holding above the 50 EMA. This indicates that Smart Money is accumulating, and traders should focus primarily on Long setups.
Bearish 🔴: Price is trading below the 50 EMA. This suggests institutional distribution, meaning Short setups have a higher probability of success.
Purpose: The HTF modules act as your safety filter. By respecting the D1/H4 signals, you avoid trading against the major trend, significantly reducing the risk of being stopped out by macro flows.
2. Low Time Frame (LTF) Execution – The "Trigger" Simultaneously, the indicator analyzes the 1-Hour (H1) and 15-Minute (M15) timeframes.
These timeframes are crucial for timing entries and managing intraday volatility.
Conflict Warning: If the HTF is Bullish (Green) but the LTF is Bearish (Red), the market is likely in a pullback phase. This warns the trader to wait for the LTF to realign with the HTF before entering.
How to Use This Tool This dashboard is designed to be the first step in your trading routine:
Check Confluence: Look for a "Full Green" or "Full Red" board. When D1, H4, and H1 align, the probability of a successful trade increases exponentially.
Identify Pullbacks: If D1/H4 are Green, but M15 is Red, do not sell. Instead, treat this as a discount phase and wait for the M15 to flip back to Green for a high-precision entry.
Risk Management: Use the HTF bias to determine your risk exposure. Trade with full risk only when HTF and LTF are aligned.
Settings & Customization
Table Position: Fully adjustable (Top Right, Bottom Right, etc.) to fit your workspace.
EMA Period: Default is set to 50 (Standard Michael Strategy), but can be adjusted to fit other strategies.
Visuals: Clean, non-intrusive design with clear color coding for instant readability.
Disclaimer This tool is for informational purposes only and serves as a trend-confirmation aid. It should be used in conjunction with price action analysis, key levels, and proper risk management.
BTC/XAU Correlation Crossing Delay PerformanceOVERVIEW
The BTC/XAU Correlation Crossing Delay Performance indicator is a specialized macro-tool designed to track the structural relationship between Bitcoin (Digital Gold) and Physical Gold. In institutional finance, these two assets represent the "Scarcity Complex." While they are often viewed as similar, they move in distinct Regime Shifts . This script identifies the exact moments of correlation decoupling—historically a lead indicator for major Bitcoin volatility and catch-up rallies.
THE IDEA: THE DECOUPLING SIGNAL
Traditional safe havens like Gold often act as a "Smoke Alarm" for geopolitical fear. Bitcoin, however, functions more as a "Fire Department" for global liquidity expansion. When the 52-week correlation between the two drops to zero or below, it signals a structural divergence.
Data from the past can suggest that such "Zero-Cross" events occur when Gold has front-run a price move, leaving Bitcoin at a relative valuation discount. This script marks these "Regime Shifts" (M-Markers) and measures the subsequent performance during a customizable Alpha Window .
CALCULATIONS & METHODOLOGY
The script utilizes the following logic to generate its data points:
• Purchasing Power Ratio: Calculated as Bitcoin Price divided by Gold Price. This shows exactly how many ounces of gold 1 BTC can buy.
• Pearson Correlation: A rolling 52-week calculation measuring the linear relationship between BTC and Gold prices.
• Zero-Cross Signal: A logic trigger/Marker that fires when the correlation value drops from a positive state to zero or a negative value.(M1 - M-n)
• Alpha Performance: A secondary calculation that captures the BTC price at the signal bar and compares it to the price exactly N-weeks later.
HOW TO READ THE CHART
• Orange Line: The current BTC/Gold ratio. A rising line means Bitcoin is gaining purchasing power against Gold.
• Orange Vertical Shapes (M-n): These mark the "M-Signals" where correlation broke (correlation ratio turned from positive to 0 or below on that bar). This is the "coiled spring" phase.
• Blue Vertical Shapes (Result): These appear after your defined Alpha Window (e.g., 12 weeks). They display the percentage change for both the Ratio and BTC/USD price since the M-n-signal.
• Blue Area (middle Lane): A visualization of the raw correlation value. When this cloud disappears toward the zero-level, a regime shift is in progress.
USER INPUTS
• Tickers: Choose your preferred Bitcoin and Gold sources (e.g., INDEX:BTCUSD or TVC:GOLD).
• Correlation Lookback: Default is 52 weeks, the institutional standard for measuring annual macro cycles.
• Alpha Window: Define the number of weeks (e.g., 12) you wish to track after a decoupling signal to verify historical catch-up trends.
TIMEFRAME
I view the data on the weekly timeframe. The script is optimized to run on this timeframe.
DISCLAIMER
This script is provided for educational and research purposes only. Correlation shifts are indicators of market structure changes and do not guarantee future price direction. Past performance of the BTC/Gold ratio is not an indicator of future results. Always use comprehensive risk management when trading high-volatility assets.

Trend Strength [OmegaTools]Trend Strength is a quantitative regime oscillator designed to measure directional pressure and trend quality by blending price structure, return-dependence, realized intrabar expansion, and volume participation into a single normalized signal. The goal is not to predict, but to classify market state: when price action is in an expansionary/distributionary phase versus when it is in a contractionary/accumulation phase, so you can align execution and risk with the prevailing environment.
Core concept and methodology
The indicator aggregates four components computed on stable rolling windows and mapped into comparable ranges:
1. Price location / structural positioning (100-bar range)
A normalized price-location metric (position of close within the rolling high–low range) is transformed into a non-linear “strength” profile. This emphasizes meaningful departures from the middle of the range and penalizes indecision, producing a structure-aware contribution rather than a raw oscillator.
2. Return-dependence / directional persistence (100 bars)
A correlation term measures the relationship between the current return (close − close ) and the prior price level (close ). This helps detect environments where movement is more persistent or more mean-reverting, providing a statistical component that complements pure price-location signals.
3. Realized expansion / volatility proxy (50-bar accumulation, 300-bar normalization)
Intrabar expansion is approximated via the absolute candle body relative to the full range, aggregated over a short window to represent realized “effort” and then normalized over a longer window. This captures whether price is moving with meaningful body expansion versus compressing and stalling.
4. Volume participation (11-bar accumulation, 300-bar normalization)
A rolling volume sum is normalized over a longer window to quantify participation. This helps separate “thin” moves from moves supported by broader activity, without relying on exchange-specific volume assumptions.
The final oscillator is a weighted blend of these four normalized components, scaled for readability. The output is intentionally centered around two actionable regimes rather than a symmetric overbought/oversold framework.
How to read the oscillator
Trend Strength is designed around two main thresholds:
- Distribution / Expansion regime (oscillator above 0)
When the oscillator is above 0, the market is classified as being in a higher-pressure expansion regime. This often corresponds to directional continuation potential, stronger impulse behavior, and reduced suitability for tight mean-reversion tactics.
- Accumulation / Contraction regime (oscillator below −1.3)
When the oscillator is below −1.3, the market is classified as being in a contraction/accumulation regime. This frequently corresponds to compression, rotation, and lower directional efficiency, where breakouts may be more fragile and mean-reversion tactics may be more appropriate (depending on instrument and session conditions).
Values between 0 and −1.3 are treated as transitional/neutral, where the market is not clearly committing to either regime.
Continuous Mode vs Standard Mode
Trend Strength includes an optional Continuous Mode to improve interpretability during regime transitions:
- Standard Mode colors only when the oscillator is firmly in one of the two regimes (above 0 or below −1.3). Neutral zones remain uncolored, keeping the display conservative.
- Continuous Mode adds persistence logic: once a regime is confirmed, intermediate values are rendered with a lighter shade of the last confirmed regime until the opposite regime is confirmed. This reduces visual noise, helps maintain a consistent directional bias framework, and is particularly useful for intraday execution and session trend management.
Visual design and bar coloring
The oscillator line is color-coded:
- Purple: distribution / expansion regime
- Orange: accumulation / contraction regime
Neutral/transitional values are displayed in grey (or lightly shaded in Continuous Mode based on last confirmed regime).
Optionally, the indicator can color price bars using the same regime logic, allowing rapid at-a-glance regime recognition directly on the chart.
Practical use cases
- Regime filter for strategies: enable trend-following logic only in expansion regimes; enable mean-reversion or range logic in contraction regimes.
- Risk adjustment: increase/decrease position sizing or tighten/widen stops based on regime classification.
- Confirmation layer: combine with structure tools (market structure, VWAP, key levels) to validate whether conditions support continuation or imply compression.
- Session management: identify when a session is behaving as a trend day versus a rotational day, improving trade selection and reducing overtrading.
Notes
Trend Strength is a regime classifier and contextual tool. It does not guarantee future direction and should be integrated into a complete decision process (risk management, market structure, session context, and instrument-specific behavior).
