Session Levels (3of3)This system is designed to strip away market noise and highlight the areas where institutional capital is actually active.
Most retail traders fail because they treat every price movement with equal importance. They often enter trades in the "middle of nowhere" or get trapped by "fakeouts" at standard support/resistance levels.
This tool solves:
Context Blindness: It defines the "playing field" by marking institutional session boundaries (Asia, London, NY), so you know exactly where liquidity resides.
Computation Lag: Standard Volume Profiles often slow down a chart. Our Optimized VPC provides the "Magnet" price without the lag.
Indecision: By requiring a Market Structure Shift (MSS) alongside a Fair Value Gap (FVG), it removes the guesswork of "Is this a reversal or a continuation?"
Why It Is Unique:
Unlike standard indicators that look at a single data point (like just price or just volume), this is a Holistic System.
Auto-Mitigation: Most FVG indicators clutter your screen with old boxes. This tool automatically deletes zones once price "fills" them, keeping your focus on live opportunities.
Institutional "Sweep" Logic: It specifically tracks if price has "stolen" the liquidity from a previous session before issuing a signal.
The "Vegas" Filter: It uses the 144 EMA (Vegas Floor) as a high-probability institutional trend filter, ensuring you aren't fighting the primary trend.
When testing this, track one specific stat: "Did price hit the VPC after the MSS?" You will likely find that even when the trade doesn't reach the far PRZ targets, it reaches the VPC Magnet over 70% of the time. Focusing on that "snap-back" to the orange line is the secret to a high win rate with this tool.

## What This Indicator Does
This indicator combines two powerful concepts to identify complete market cycles:
### 1. Squeeze Momentum (LazyBear)
Detects **volatility compression** (consolidation) and subsequent **expansion** (breakout).
**Think of it like:** A spring being compressed, then released.
### 2. Multi-Timeframe Trend Exhaustion
Measures how far price has moved from its moving averages across multiple timeframes.
**Think of it like:** A rubber band being stretched—eventually it must snap back.
### The Complete Cycle
```
Consolidation → Breakout → Trend → Exhaustion → Reversion → Consolidation
```
This indicator shows you exactly where you are in this cycle.

### 1. Momentum Histogram (Colored Bars)
| Color | Direction | Meaning |
|-------|-----------|---------|
| **Bright Green** (Lime) | Up ↑ | Strong bullish momentum (increasing) |
| **Dark Green** | Up ↑ | Weak bullish momentum (decreasing) |
| **Bright Red** | Down ↓ | Strong bearish momentum (increasing) |
| **Dark Red** (Maroon) | Down ↓ | Weak bearish momentum (decreasing) |
**Key insight:** When bars change from bright to dark, momentum is fading.
---
### 2. Extension Area (Filled Gradient)
Shows how extended price is from its moving averages across 5 timeframes (5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, Daily).
| Color | Position | Meaning |
|-------|----------|---------|
| **Red** | High above zero | Severely overbought (>2σ scaled) |
| **Orange/Yellow** | Above zero | Moderately overbought |
| **Lime/Green** | Below zero | Moderately oversold |
| **Teal** | Deep below zero | Severely oversold (<-2σ scaled) |
**The area is scaled 3x** for better visibility. Actual values shown in table.
**Reading it:**
- **Area touching upper dashed line** = Price very far above averages (exhaustion territory)
- **Area touching lower dashed line** = Price very far below averages (exhaustion territory)
- **Area near zero** = Price near its averages (normal/neutral)

## How to Read Signals
### Perfect Long Entry (High Confidence ⭐)
**Requirements (all must be true):**
1. ⚫→⚪ Squeeze just turned OFF (gray cross)
2. 📊 Momentum bars bright GREEN and rising
3. 🔻 Extension area BELOW lower dashed line (oversold)
4. ⭐ Confluence: 3/5 or more timeframes agree (shown as "🔻" in table)
**Visual:** Large green triangle appears
**What this means:** Price was oversold across multiple timeframes, consolidated, and is now breaking out upward with fresh momentum.
**Entry:** Next candle after signal
**Stop Loss:** Below recent consolidation low
**Take Profit:** When extension area crosses back above zero, or when exit signal appears
---
### Perfect Short Entry (High Confidence ⭐)
**Requirements (all must be true):**
1. ⚫→⚪ Squeeze just turned OFF (gray cross)
2. 📊 Momentum bars bright RED and falling
3. 🔺 Extension area ABOVE upper dashed line (overbought)
4. ⭐ Confluence: 3/5 or more timeframes agree (shown as "🔺" in table)
**Visual:** Large red triangle appears
**What this means:** Price was overbought across multiple timeframes, consolidated, and is now breaking down with fresh momentum.
**Entry:** Next candle after signal
**Stop Loss:** Above recent consolidation high
**Take Profit:** When extension area crosses back below zero, or when exit signal appears
---
### Exit Signals
#### Exit Long (Orange X)
**Appears when:**
- Extension area reaches upper dashed line (>2σ)
- Momentum bars turning from bright green to dark green
- Price losing upward velocity
**Action:** Close 50-100% of position. Move stop to breakeven on remainder.
#### Exit Short (Teal X)
**Appears when:**
- Extension area reaches lower dashed line (<-2σ)
- Momentum bars turning from bright red to dark red
- Price losing downward velocity
**Action:** Close 50-100% of position. Move stop to breakeven on remainder.
---
### Medium Confidence Signals (Small Triangles)
These appear when squeeze is OFF and momentum is directional, but:
- Extension is only moderate (not extreme), OR
- Confluence is weak (<3/5 timeframes)
**How to trade:**
- Use smaller position size (50% of normal)
- Tighter stops
- Only take if other factors align (support/resistance, volume, etc.)
---
## Trading Examples
### Example 1: Classic Squeeze Play into Trend
```
Step 1: CONSOLIDATION (💤)
Chart: Price moving sideways for 10-20 candles
Indicator: Black cross at zero (Squeeze ON)
Extension: Yellow/Lime area near zero line
Action: Set alert for Squeeze OFF
Step 2: BREAKOUT (⚡)
Chart: Strong green candle breaks resistance
Indicator: Cross turns GRAY (Squeeze OFF)
Bright GREEN momentum bars appear
Extension area still near zero or slightly below
Signal: Large green triangle appears
Action: ENTER LONG
Stop loss below consolidation
Target: Extension upper line
Step 3: TRENDING (↗️)
Chart: Series of higher highs and higher lows
Indicator: Momentum bars stay bright green
Extension area rising toward upper line
Area color transitions yellow → orange → red
Action: HOLD, trailing stop
Step 4: EXHAUSTION (🔴)
Chart: Price makes new high but with smaller candle
Indicator: Extension area touches upper dashed line
Momentum bars turn DARK green (weakening)
Orange X appears
Table shows "EXHAUSTION BULL"
Action: EXIT position
Book profits
Step 5: REVERSION
Chart: Price falls back toward moving averages
Indicator: Extension area shrinks back toward zero
Red momentum bars appear
Action: Wait for next setup
```
**Result:** Caught the entire trend from breakout to exhaustion.
---
### Example 2: Failed Breakout (What NOT to Trade)
```
Situation:
- Squeeze OFF (gray cross) ✓
- Momentum bars bright green ✓
- BUT extension area ABOVE upper line (already overbought) ✗
- Confluence shows 1/5 (only one timeframe agrees) ✗
Indicator: Small green triangle (medium confidence) or no triangle
What happens: Price makes small move up, then reverses
Lesson: Don't chase extended moves even if squeeze fires.
Wait for price to be on the RIGHT SIDE of the extension lines.
```
---
### Example 3: Exhaustion Reversal Trade
```
Step 1: EXTENDED (⚠️)
Chart: Strong uptrend for days

Step 2: EXHAUSTION (🔴)
Chart: Price makes final push but with decreasing volume
Indicator: Momentum bars turn DARK green
Orange X appears
Table: "EXHAUSTION BULL" + "4/5 🔺"
Action: CLOSE any longs
Consider SHORT entry
Step 3: SQUEEZE FORMS (Optional)
Chart: Price starts consolidating
Indicator: Cross turns BLACK (Squeeze ON)

### Understanding the Table
Located in top-right corner:
| Row | Meaning |
|-----|---------|
| **Market State** | Current cycle phase (Consolidation/Breakout/Trending/Exhaustion) |
| **Squeeze** | 🔴 ON / 🟢 OFF / 🔵 No |
| **Momentum** | ↑ Bull / ↓ Bear / ~ Weak / — Neutral |
| **Extension** | Actual value in standard deviations (σ) - NOT scaled |
| **Confluence** | How many timeframes agree (X/5 🔺 or 🔻) |
| **Velocity** | Speed of extension change (↑ increasing, ↓ decreasing) |
| **ACTION** | What to do right now |
**Most important rows:**
1. **Market State** - Quick glance at current cycle
2. **Confluence** - Determines signal quality
3. **ACTION** - Direct guidance
---
## Best Practices
### ✅ DO
1. **Wait for High Confidence signals** (large triangles)
- Don't trade every small signal
- Quality over quantity
2. **Use the complete cycle**
- Enter on Breakout (⚡)
- Hold through Trending (↗️/↘️)
- Exit on Exhaustion (🔴/🟢)
3. **Respect confluence**
- 4/5 or 5/5 = Excellent probability
- 3/5 = Good probability
- 1-2/5 = Skip
4. **Combine with price action**
- Support/resistance levels
- Volume confirmation
- Candlestick patterns
5. **Set alerts**
- "Squeeze OFF" - Don't miss breakouts
- "HC Long Setup" / "HC Short Setup"
- "Exit Long" / "Exit Short"
6. **Scale positions**
- Enter 50% on signal
- Add 25% if extension confirms
- Add final 25% if momentum sustains
7. **Use proper risk management**
- Stop loss: Below/above consolidation
- Position size: 1-2% account risk
- Take profit: Extension targets or signals
---
### ❌ DON'T
1. **Don't trade Consolidation state**
- Black cross (Squeeze ON) = Wait mode
- No signals during consolidation
2. **Don't chase Extended moves**
- If extension already >2σ when Squeeze fires
- Even if momentum looks good
- Wait for reversion first
3. **Don't fight strong trends**
- If extension is growing and momentum strong
- Don't counter-trend trade
- Wait for exhaustion signals
4. **Don't ignore velocity**
- If velocity is ↑ and extension high = still dangerous
- If velocity is ↓ and extension high = safer reversal
5. **Don't trade low confluence**
- 1/5 or 2/5 = Different timeframes disagree
- High chance of false signal
6. **Don't use blindly**
- Check overall market context
- Major news events can override signals
- Trend on higher timeframe matters
7. **Don't overtrade**
- Good setups are rare (that's why they work)
- Wait for complete setup formation
---
## Quick Reference Card
### Signal Quality Checklist
**⭐⭐⭐ PERFECT SETUP (Trade this)**
- Squeeze just turned OFF (⚫→⚪)
- Momentum bright and directional
- Extension >2σ (OPPOSITE direction of entry)
- Confluence ≥3/5
- Large triangle signal
- Action says "LONG/SHORT ENTRY ⭐"
**⭐⭐ GOOD SETUP (Trade with caution)**
- Squeeze OFF
- Momentum directional
- Extension moderate
- Confluence ≥3/5

---
### State → Action Quick Guide
| See This State | Do This |
|---------------|---------|
| 💤 CONSOLIDATION | Wait, set alerts |
| ⚡ BREAKOUT | Enter in direction |
| ↗️/↘️ TRENDING | Hold positions |
| ⚠️ EXTENDED | Tighten stops, no new entries |
| 🔴/🟢 EXHAUSTION | Exit, consider reversal |
| — NEUTRAL | No trade |
---
## Troubleshooting
**Q: Indicator shows Exhaustion but price keeps going**
**A:** Check velocity and momentum. If still bright bars + velocity ↑, wait. True exhaustion needs momentum weakening.
**Q: Too many false signals**
**A:** Increase Min Confluence to 4/5. Use longer timeframe chart (4h instead of 1h).
**Q: Missing good trades**
**A:** Set alerts for "Squeeze OFF" and "HC Entry" signals. You can't watch charts 24/7.
**Q: Extension area looks weird**
**A:** Remember it's scaled 3x for visibility. Check table for actual values.
**Q: Which timeframe is best?**
**A:** 4H for swing trading, 1H for day trading. Lower = more signals but more noise.
**Q: Can I use this with other indicators?**
**A:** Yes! Combine with:
- Volume profile
- Support/resistance levels
- Moving averages on chart
- RSI for additional confirmation
---
## Final Thoughts
This indicator gives you a complete picture of market structure:
- **Where are we?** (Market State)
- **Where are we going?** (Momentum)
- **How far can it go?** (Extension)
- **When will it reverse?** (Exhaustion)
The key is **patience**. Wait for the complete setup:
1. Consolidation (⚫ Squeeze ON)
2. Breakout (⚪ Squeeze OFF)
3. Right extension direction (oversold for longs, overbought for shorts)
4. Strong confluence (3/5+)
When all pieces align, you get high-probability trades with clear entries, targets, and exits.
**Trade the cycle, not every wiggle.**

**Good trading! 📈**
Intraday Sentiment DynamicsThe purpose of this script is to create a structured model of intraday sentiment by analyzing how price behaves relative to VWAP. Instead of treating VWAP deviation as a simple overbought or oversold measure, the script aims to understand the dynamics behind that deviation — how quickly sentiment is shifting, whether that shift is strengthening or weakening, and when abrupt changes in behaviour occur. Its goal is to provide a standardized, volatility‑adjusted framework that helps traders identify trend continuation, trend exhaustion, mean‑reversion setups, and early regime shifts.
To achieve this, the script begins by calculating the difference between the bar’s midpoint and VWAP. This raw deviation is then standardized using a rolling mean and standard deviation, producing a z‑score that expresses how far price is from VWAP in statistical terms. Standardization removes volatility bias, session drift, and asset‑specific scaling issues, making the signal comparable across different market conditions. A weighted moving average smooths this standardized deviation to reduce noise and prepare it for slope‑based analysis.
The core of the script is a slope‑normalization mechanism that measures how the standardized VWAP deviation changes over time. For each bar, the script computes the slope over a user‑defined length, separates positive and negative slope events, and maintains these in arrays that track their recent behaviour. From these arrays, it calculates average magnitudes and standard deviations, allowing it to normalize the current slope into a consistent, volatility‑adjusted scale. This ensures that both small and extreme slope events are interpreted meaningfully.
This normalization function is applied recursively to generate three higher‑order derivatives. The first derivative, velocity, represents the rate at which sentiment is moving toward or away from VWAP. The second derivative, acceleration, measures whether this movement is strengthening or weakening. The third derivative, jerk, captures sudden changes in acceleration and serves as an early indicator of shifts in market behaviour. Together, these derivatives form a multi‑layered behavioural model that reveals the internal structure of intraday sentiment.
The script visualizes these components using distinct color families and filled regions that highlight positive and negative behaviour. Background shading reinforces the dominant direction of each derivative, making it easy to see when sentiment is building, fading, or reversing. The standardized VWAP deviation is plotted alongside these derivatives, and horizontal lines at ±1, ±2, and ±3 standard deviations provide a statistical frame of reference for identifying extreme conditions.
In practical trading terms, the indicator helps identify strong continuation environments when velocity, acceleration, and jerk align in the same direction. It highlights early signs of trend exhaustion when jerk flips before acceleration, often preceding reversals. It supports mean‑reversion trades when VWAP deviation reaches extreme levels and the derivative chain begins to weaken. It also detects regime shifts when jerk spikes, helping traders avoid traps during sudden liquidity events or fake breakouts. By converting VWAP deviation into a structured, derivative‑based model, the script provides a clear and actionable view of intraday sentiment dynamics.

Advanced Power Index (GGE)# Advanced Power Index (GGE)
## Overview
The Advanced Power Index is a momentum oscillator that provides faster and more responsive signals compared to traditional RSI indicators. It uses direct summation calculations instead of exponential smoothing, making it particularly effective for short to medium-term trading.
## Key Features
- **Faster Response**: Reacts more quickly to price changes than standard RSI
- **Clearer Signals**: Provides sharper, more defined momentum shifts
- **Customizable Levels**: Overbought (68) and Oversold (32) zones
- **Visual Alerts**: Color-coded plot and background highlighting for critical zones
- **Adaptive**: Works well in both trending and ranging markets
## How It Works
The indicator calculates the ratio between positive and negative price changes over a specified period, converting this into a 0-100 scale oscillator. Unlike traditional RSI which uses Wilder's smoothing method, this approach delivers more immediate signals for momentum changes.
## Trading Applications
### 1. Overbought/Oversold Strategy
- **Oversold (< 32)**: Potential buying opportunity when indicator rises back above 32
- **Overbought (> 68)**: Potential selling opportunity when indicator falls back below 68
### 2. Midline Crossovers
- **Above 50**: Bullish momentum, consider long positions
- **Below 50**: Bearish momentum, consider short positions
### 3. Divergence Trading
- **Bullish Divergence**: Price makes lower lows while indicator makes higher lows
- **Bearish Divergence**: Price makes higher highs while indicator makes lower highs
### 4. Trend Following
- In uptrends: Use pullbacks to the 50 level as entry points
- In downtrends: Use rallies to the 50 level as exit/short points
## Color Coding
- **Green**: Strong bullish momentum (> 68)
- **Red**: Strong bearish momentum (< 32)
- **Yellow**: Neutral zone (32-68)
## Settings
- **Period**: Default 14, adjustable based on your trading timeframe
- **Price Type**: Close, Open, High, Low, or custom source
- **Highlight Zones**: Toggle background highlighting for critical levels
## Best Timeframes
- Most effective on 5-minute to 4-hour charts
- Ideal for day trading and scalping strategies
- Can be combined with trend indicators for confirmation
## Tips for Use
- Don't use in isolation - combine with volume, support/resistance levels
- Works best in liquid, actively traded markets
- Consider using alongside moving averages or MACD
- Always implement proper risk management and stop-losses
## Advantages Over Standard RSI
✓ Faster signal generation
✓ Less lag in volatile markets
✓ Better suited for short-term trading
✓ Clearer momentum shifts
✓ More responsive to sudden price changes

Mid-Term Refuges (RMP)════════════
ENGLISH VERSION (SPANISH TEXT AT THE END)
════════════
MID-TERM REFUGES (RMP) V1.0
The Mid-Term Refuges (RMP) indicator plots psychological support and resistance levels based on a methodology used by institutional investors since auction floor days. RMP automatically calculates 31 key levels (refuges) from the asset's annual opening price.
METHODOLOGY
• RESISTANCES (R1-R15): Projected at +10% intervals from annual opening, identifying selling pressure zones
• SUPPORTS (S1-S15): Calculated at -10% intervals, marking buyer interest areas
• ANNUAL OPENING PRICE (PA): Central reference level
The 10% intervals represent significant psychological thresholds that capture market indecision, consolidation, or reversal moments. When critical mass of participants uses these same levels, they become self-fulfilling prophecies.

REFUGIOS DE MEDIANO PLAZO (RMP) V1.0
El indicador Refugios de Mediano Plazo (RMP) traza niveles psicologicos de soporte y resistencia basados en una metodologia utilizada por inversores institucionales desde los tiempos de los pisos de subastas. RMP calcula automaticamente 31 niveles clave (refugios) a partir del precio de apertura anual del activo.
METODOLOGIA
• RESISTENCIAS (R1-R15): Proyectadas a intervalos de +10% desde la apertura anual, identificando zonas de presion vendedora
• SOPORTES (S1-S15): Calculados a intervalos de -10%, marcando areas de interes comprador
• PRECIO DE APERTURA ANUAL (PA): Nivel de referencia central
Los intervalos del 10% representan umbrales psicologicos significativos que capturan momentos de indecision, consolidacion o reversion del mercado. Cuando una masa critica de participantes utiliza estos mismos niveles, se convierten en profecias autocumplidas.
VALIDACION
Pruebe la efectividad de RMP en sus activos:

Next Candle PredictorAdvanced TradingView Indicator for Precise Buy and Sell Signals
Overview:
The Predicta Futures - Next Candle Predictor is a cutting-edge TradingView indicator designed to forecast the next candle's direction in futures and cryptocurrency markets. Leveraging a multi-indicator confluence strategy, this tool provides traders with actionable long and short prediction percentages, enhanced by dynamic ADX-based thresholds and visual projection candles. Ideal for scalping, day trading, or swing trading on platforms like MEXC or Binance futures, it combines Supertrend, MACD, RSI, Stochastic, ADX, and volume analysis to deliver high-probability buy and sell signals while minimizing false positives.
Key Features:
• Multi-Indicator Confluence Scoring:
Integrates Supertrend for trend direction, EMAs (8, 21, 50) for alignment, MACD for momentum crossovers, RSI for overbought/oversold conditions, Stochastic for divergence detection, ADX for trend strength, and volume ratios for confirmation. A customizable confluence score (0-6) ensures signals meet user-defined criteria, reducing whipsaws in volatile markets.
• Dynamic Prediction Thresholds:
ADX-driven adjustments lower the required prediction percentage (e.g., 60% in strong trends) for "PERFECT TIME" entries, adapting to market conditions like ranging or trending phases.
• Visual Analysis Table:
A sleek, color-coded dashboard displays progress bars for each indicator, prediction percentages, and status (e.g., "PERFECT TIME" or "WAIT"). Supports long and short analyses with intuitive ASCII bars for quick scans.
• Projection Candles:
Simulates potential next-candle outcomes with volatility-scaled (via Bollinger Bands width) green long and red short candles, aiding in visualizing price targets.
• Buy/Sell Signals and Alerts:
Generates labeled "BUY" and "SELL" arrows on EMA crossovers within confirmed trends, with separate alerts for basic signals and high-confluence "PERFECT TIME" opportunities.
• Customizable Inputs:
Adjust ATR periods, Supertrend factors, minimum confluence scores, and volume ratios to tailor the indicator for stocks, forex, or crypto perpetual futures.
How It Works:
This TradingView script calculates long and short scores using weighted contributions from key indicators, normalizing them into prediction percentages. A confluence check—factoring trend, EMA alignment, MACD, Stochastic, volume, and ADX—triggers "PERFECT TIME" only when conditions align robustly. For example:
• In a downtrend (Supertrend red), with bearish MACD and Stochastic, and sufficient volume, the indicator highlights short opportunities.
• Dynamic thresholds ensure aggressive entries in strong trends (ADX >25) and conservative ones in weak trends.
• Backtested for reliability, it excels in identifying reversals and continuations, making it a must-have for traders seeking an edge in futures trading strategies.
Usage Instructions:
1. Add the indicator to your TradingView chart. (Search: Next Candle Predictor)
2. Customize settings via the inputs panel (e.g., set minConfluence to 5 for stricter signals).
3. Monitor the analysis table for predictions and confluence scores.
4. Act on "BUY/SELL" labels or "PERFECT TIME" alerts, combining with your risk management.
5. Enable projection candles for visual forecasting of the next bar.
Compatible with all timeframes, from 1-minute scalping to daily swings. Note: This is not financial advice; always verify signals with additional analysis.

Regime Switch 100/200 SMAWhat it does
Daily, close-only trend regime for any symbol using the 100-day (momentum) and 200-day (regime) SMAs. Classifies the tape into GREEN / YELLOW / RED and stays stable intraday.
How it works (rules)
GREEN = Close > 100D and 100D > 200D -> full risk-on.
YELLOW = Close > 200D and 100D <= 200D -> light risk-on / repair.
RED = Close < 200D -> risk-off.
State changes require N = 2 daily closes (configurable).
Optional +/- band % around 200D to reduce whipsaws.
Always computes on daily data (independent of chart timeframe).
Inputs
Use chart symbol? (else pick a fixed symbol)
Fast SMA length (default 100)
Slow SMA length (default 200)
Daily closes to confirm (default 2)
Buffer band % around 200D (default 0)
Toggles: state-change markers, status panel, SMA labels
Visuals & alerts
Background: GREEN / YELLOW / RED by state
Lines: SMA100 (yellow) and SMA200 (orange)
Markers on state flips; three alertconditions fire on GREEN / YELLOW / RED changes
How to use (workflow)
View with 1D candles , ~ 1Y range .
Decide at the daily close; execute next day’s open.
Example sizing when signaling on QQQ and expressing with TQQQ:
- GREEN -> sleeve 10–15% (cap 20–25%); trim if sleeve > target x 1.25.
- YELLOW -> sleeve 5–8% (half risk).
- RED -> 0%; sit in cash until GREEN or YELLOW returns.
No margin/loans layered on leveraged ETFs.
Notes
Works with regular candles; dividend-adjustment settings can nudge SMA values.
For faster but noisier behavior, shorten to 150/100D or set Confirm=1.

Quant-Action Pro: Triple Confluence EngineQuant-Action Pro: Triple Confluence Engine
Systematic Framework for Structural Price Action Analysis
Quant-Action Pro is a high-performance analytical engine designed to synchronize institutional liquidity flow with market geometry. Instead of traditional "signals," this framework identifies Structural States where three independent algorithmic layers align, providing a objective roadmap for the current price action context.
1. Core Algorithmic Matrix
The engine operates by monitoring the interaction between price and three proprietary logic layers:
A. Institutional Flow Node (SP2L) —
Logic: Monitors "Passive Liquidity Absorption" at the 20-period EMA.
Function: Identifies zones where institutional buyers/sellers are defending the trend's equilibrium. This is not a simple touch; it requires a validated "Touch-and-Hold" sequence.
B. Structural Flip Scanner (BTB) —
Logic: Detects the transition from old supply to new demand (S/R Flip).
Function: Uses a 3-phase Break-Test-Break verification to confirm that a structural breakout is backed by volume, reducing the risk of "Fake-outs."
C. Liquidity Compression Monitor (Micro Map) —
Logic: Statistical range-contraction analysis (Volatility Squeeze).
Function: Signals a High-Density State where price is coiling for an expansion move.
2. The Golden State: Triple Confluence Logic
The GOLD label represents the "Apex" of this engine. It is triggered only when the SP2L, BTB, and Micro Map layers synchronize on a single candle. In structural terms, this means:
Trend Defense (SP2L) is active.
Structural Breakout (BTB) is confirmed.
Volatility Expansion (MM) is imminent.
This Triple-Layer filtering ensures that Golden Signals only appear during periods of maximum market conviction.
3. Professional Implementation (Structural View)
MTF Trend Matrix: A built-in dashboard provides a 1H, 4H, and 1D diagnosis to ensure local setups align with the Macro Trend.
Smart Invalidation (Adaptive Trendlines): The engine draws dynamic geometry to define the current "Structural Floor/Ceiling." A decisive close beyond these lines acts as a clear Invalidation Point for the current thesis.
Mean Reversion: The system uses the 200-EMA as the primary directional filter, defining whether the market is in a "Bullish Expansion" or "Bearish Correction" state.
⚠️ Risk Disclaimer
Trading financial instruments involves significant risk. Quant-Action Pro is an educational tool designed for research and structural analysis. It does not provide financial advice. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always use strict risk management.
Trinity Inside & 3-Candle Sweep Breakout with TargetsTrinity Intraday Inside Candle / 3-Candle Sweep + Breakout with Inside Bar Indicator
This Pine Script indicator is built specifically for **intraday trading on the 15-minute timeframe**, but can be used on any timeframes.
It identifies two closely related price action setups: the classic **Inside Candle Breakout** and the higher-probability **3-Candle Liquidity Sweep** (also called a reversal or false breakout setup). Both are filtered by Previous Day High/Low for directional bias, and the entire system is highly visual with customizable lines, labels, highlights, signals, and projected targets.
#### Core Functionality
When an **inside candle** forms (current candle’s high is below the previous candle’s high AND its low is above the previous candle’s low), the indicator activates the setup visualization. The previous candle becomes the **mother candle**, and its high and low define the consolidation range.
- **Inside Bar Highlight**: The current inside candle is filled with a solid color (default bright yellow) so you can instantly identify it on the chart.
- **Mother Candle Range Visualization**:
- A green dotted line with label “Range High - ” marks the mother candle’s high (the upside breakout level).
- A red dotted line with label “Range Low - ” marks the mother candle’s low (the downside breakout level).
These lines extend to the right, making it very clear what levels need to be broken for a valid signal.
- **Signals**:
- **Inside Candle Breakout**: Triggers when the candle after the inside bar closes decisively above the mother high (bullish) or below the mother low (bearish). Shows blue arrows for long, fuchsia arrows for short, plus clear labels (“LONG Inside Breakout” or “SHORT Inside Breakout”).
- **3-Candle Liquidity Sweep**: A more refined reversal setup. After the mother + inside, the third candle sweeps beyond the mother low (for longs) or high (for shorts) to grab liquidity, but closes back inside the mother range without breaking the opposite inside extreme. Shows large green/red triangles with labels (“LONG 3-Candle Sweep” or “SHORT 3-Candle Sweep”).
- **Directional Filter (PDH/PDL)**:
- Long signals only appear when price is above Previous Day High (PDH).
- Short signals only appear when price is below Previous Day Low (PDL).
This keeps you trading with intraday momentum rather than against it.
- **Targets**: Automatically plotted only on Inside Breakout signals (can be extended to sweeps if desired). Uses the mother candle range size multiplied by two customizable risk-reward factors:
- T1 = entry + (range × 0.56) for longs (or minus for shorts) – default partial target.
- T2 = entry + (range × 0.84) for longs (or minus for shorts) – default full target.
Shows dotted lines extending right with labels like “T1 - 208.20 (0.56) points” in blue for longs or orange for shorts.
- **Additional Elements**:
- Previous Day High/Low dashed lines with moving labels (“PDH” and “PDL”) that follow the price action.
- Optional 20-period and 50-period EMAs for trend context.
- All lines and labels clear automatically once a signal triggers to keep the chart clean.
#### How to Use It
1. Apply the indicator to a **15-minute chart** of any instrument (best on liquid stocks, indices, or futures).
2. Wait for an **inside bar** to form – you’ll see it highlighted in yellow and the green/red Range High/Low lines + labels appear.
3. Monitor for a close **above Range High** (potential long) or **below Range Low** (potential short), respecting the PDH/PDL filter.
4. If the third candle sweeps liquidity but reverses properly, you get the higher-conviction 3-candle sweep signal.
5. Enter on the close of the signal candle or a small retest.
6. Stop loss typically just beyond the swept extreme or mother range opposite side.
7. Take partial profits at T1 and let the rest run to T2 (or trail).
8. Use alerts (built-in alertconditions) for all four signal types.
#### All Settings (Customizable in TradingView Inputs)
- **Visibility toggles**: Turn on/off PDH/PDL lines, moving PDH/PDL labels, 20/50 EMAs, signals, inside breakout signals, targets, mother range lines/labels, and inside bar highlight.
- **Filters**: Toggle the PDH/PDL requirement for longs/shorts and separately for breakout signals.
- **Colors**: Every single element has its own color input – PDH/PDL lines & labels, EMAs, sweep signals (shapes & labels), inside breakout signals (shapes & labels), target lines & labels (long/short separately), mother range high/low lines & labels, and inside bar fill color.
- **Risk-Reward Multipliers**: Adjust the T1 multiplier (default 0.56) and T2 multiplier (default 0.84) to match your preferred measured-move projection.
The result is a clean, professional, all-in-one intraday tool that clearly shows consolidation, breakout levels, liquidity grabs, directional bias, and projected rewards, and helps you spot high-probability inside bar continuations or reversals quickly.
Note:
You can use this indicator with **either standard (normal) candlesticks or Heikin Ashi candles**, but **standard candles are strongly recommended** for the most accurate and reliable signals.
### Why Standard Candles Are Preferred
The entire logic of the indicator — inside candle detection, 3-candle liquidity sweep validation, breakout closes, and mother candle range measurement — is based on **actual price action** using real open, high, low, and close (OHLC) values.
- **Standard candles** show the true highs and lows where liquidity (stop-loss orders) actually sits, and where real breaks/sweeps occur.
- The setups (especially the liquidity sweep) rely on price **sweeping a prior low/high but closing back inside** — this is measured using the real candle extremes.
### What Happens with Heikin Ashi
Heikin Ashi candles are **averaged/smoothened** versions of price:
- Their highs and lows are calculated differently (not the true session extremes).
- Wicks are often shorter or artificial, and closes are averaged.
This can cause:
- False or missed inside candle detections.
- Incorrect range high/low measurements (the mother candle range won't match real price).
- Sweeps or breakouts that appear on Heikin Ashi but didn't actually happen in real price (or vice versa).
- Targets (T1/T2) projected from a distorted range size.
In short, Heikin Ashi will make the indicator **less accurate** and potentially generate misleading signals.
### Recommendation
- Use **standard candlesticks** on your 15-minute chart for this indicator.
- If you like the smoother look of Heikin Ashi for trend filtering, you can overlay it on a separate panel or use the built-in 20/50 EMAs for trend context instead.
Always backtest on your instruments and use proper risk management. This is not financial advice. Enjoy trading with it!
Swing Trade System# Swing Trade Strategy - Complete Guide
## Overview
This is a comprehensive swing trading indicator for TradingView that identifies high-probability trend continuation setups using multi-timeframe analysis, pullback patterns, and momentum confirmation. The strategy combines technical indicators with risk management tools to help traders capture swing moves with defined risk-reward parameters.
## What It Does
The indicator identifies two types of signals:
1. **Base Signals** (small markers) - Initial setup detection with basic criteria met
2. **High Confidence (HC) Signals** (large markers) - Fully confirmed setups with all filters passed, including optional higher timeframe confirmation
Once a HC signal triggers, the indicator automatically plots:
- Dynamic stop loss levels (trailing, break-even, or static)
- Partial take profit (TP1) at 1R
- Final take profit (TP2) at your chosen risk-reward multiple
- Real-time R-multiple tracking
- Confluence dashboard showing all conditions
## How It Works
### Core Signal Logic
The strategy identifies pullback-to-trend entries using this sequence:
**For LONG signals:**
1. **Trend Filter**: Fast EMA (20) above Slow EMA (50) = uptrend confirmed
2. **Pullback**: Previous candle closed between the two EMAs (pulled back but didn't break structure)
3. **RSI Swing Zone**: RSI between 40-60 (not overbought/oversold, just resting)
4. **Reclaim**: Current candle crosses back above Fast EMA (momentum returning)
5. **Volume Spike** (optional): Current volume > 1.5x the 20-period average
6. **HTF Confirmation** (optional): Daily timeframe shows: price > 50 EMA, RSI > 50, and rising momentum
**For SHORT signals:**
The same logic applies in reverse (downtrend, pullback above fast EMA, reclaim below, etc.)
### Risk Management Features
**Stop Loss Placement:**
- Initial stop: Swing low/high over the last 10 bars
- Can upgrade to ATR trailing stop (2x ATR below/above price)
- Can move to break-even after reaching 1R profit
**Take Profit Levels:**
- TP1: 1R (optional partial exit point)
- TP2: 2R default (adjustable to your preference)
**Position Monitoring:**
- Live R-multiple display shows current profit/loss in risk units
- Dynamic stop updates visually on chart
- Color-coded confidence score (0-100%) based on confluence of factors
## Best Way to Use These Signals
### 1. **Wait for High Confidence Signals Only**
- Don't trade every base signal (small markers)
- Only take trades when you see the large "HC L" or "HC S" markers
- These have passed all your filters including higher timeframe alignment
### 2. **Ideal Entry Timing**
**On the Signal Candle:**
- Enter at market close when HC signal fires
- This ensures all conditions were met by candle close
- Your stop and targets are calculated from this close price
**On the Next Candle (more conservative):**
- Wait for the candle after the signal
- Enter if price continues in the signal direction
- Helps avoid false breakouts but may miss some moves
### 3. **Position Sizing**
Use the automatic risk calculation:
- Your risk = Entry price - Stop loss
- Position size = (Account Risk %) ÷ (Entry - Stop)
- Example: Risk $100 on account, Entry $50, Stop $48 = $100 ÷ $2 = 50 shares
### 4. **Trade Management**
**Scaling Out:**
- Exit 50% position at TP1 (1R) to lock profits
- Move stop to break-even on remaining position
- Let rest run to TP2 (2R) or trail with ATR stop
**Manual Override:**
- If price action deteriorates (breaks below both EMAs, RSI divergence), consider early exit
- The dynamic stop is a guide, not gospel—trust price action
## Breakout vs. Retest Strategy
### Understanding Breakout Types
**1. First Touch Breakout (Aggressive)**
- HC signal fires on first touch of fast EMA after pullback
- Higher win rate if volume is strong
- Best in strongly trending markets
- Risk: Could be a false breakout if momentum weak
**2. Retest Entry (Conservative)**
- Wait for price to pull back *again* after initial HC signal
- Enter when price retests the fast EMA a second time
- Look for: lower volume on retest, RSI still in swing zone, fast EMA still above slow EMA
- Lower risk but may miss some fast moves
### Which Breakouts to Take
**Take the FIRST breakout (signal candle) when:**
- ✅ Higher timeframe is strongly aligned (HTF confirmation on)
- ✅ Volume spike is present (>1.5x average)
- ✅ Confidence score ≥70%
- ✅ Trend is fresh (EMAs recently crossed, not extended)
- ✅ Price closed strongly above/below fast EMA (not barely crossed)
- ✅ No major resistance/support nearby
**Wait for a RETEST when:**
- ⚠️ No volume confirmation on first signal
- ⚠️ Confidence score 40-69% (moderate)
- ⚠️ Price barely crossed the fast EMA (weak momentum)
- ⚠️ Trend is extended (price far from slow EMA)
- ⚠️ Major resistance/support level just ahead
- ⚠️ Late in the trading day/week (could see pullback)
### How to Trade Retests
**Setup:**
1. HC signal fires but you decide to wait
2. Price pulls back toward fast EMA over next 1-3 candles
3. Watch for second bounce at the fast EMA
**Confirmation for Retest Entry:**
- Price holds above fast EMA (for longs) without closing below it
- Volume decreases on the pullback (profit-taking, not reversal)
- RSI stays above 50 for longs (or below 50 for shorts)
- Bullish candlestick pattern forms (hammer, engulfing, etc.)
- Slow EMA is still providing support/resistance
**Retest Entry Trigger:**
- Enter when price crosses back in signal direction with momentum
- Or enter with a limit order at the fast EMA
- Use same stop loss as original signal (swing low/high)
- Targets remain the same (measured from your new entry)
## Dashboard Reference
The top confluence table shows real-time status:
- **Trend**: Current trend direction based on EMAs
- **HTF**: Higher timeframe alignment (if enabled)
- **RSI Zone**: Whether RSI is in the 40-60 swing zone

## Alert Setup
The indicator includes 8 alert types:
1. **HC LONG/SHORT ENTRY** - Main trade signals
2. **LONG/SHORT TP1 Reached** - Partial profit alerts
3. **LONG/SHORT Final TP Reached** - Full target hit
4. **LONG/SHORT Stop Hit** - Exit alerts
Set up alerts in TradingView:

- Choose the specific alert condition
- Set to "Once Per Bar Close" to avoid false alerts
- Configure notification method (app, email, webhook, etc.)
## Recommended Settings
**For Stock Swing Trading (4H-Daily):**
- Fast EMA: 20 | Slow EMA: 50
- Swing Lookback: 10
- RSI Zone: 40-60
- HTF: Daily (if trading 4H charts)
- Risk-Reward: 2R minimum
**For Crypto (faster moves):**
- Fast EMA: 12 | Slow EMA: 26
- Swing Lookback: 7
- RSI Zone: 35-65
- Volume Spike: ON
- Risk-Reward: 1.5-2R
**For Conservative Trading:**
- Enable HTF Confirmation
- Enable Volume Spike requirement
- Use Break-even stop (move after 1R)
- Only trade when Confidence ≥70%
- Wait for retests on marginal setups
## Risk Warning
This indicator is a tool, not a guarantee. Always:
- Use proper position sizing (risk 1-2% per trade)
- Respect the stop losses
- Consider market context (news, earnings, major levels)
- Backtest on your instruments before live trading
- Never override risk management for FOMO
The best signals combine technical confluence with good market conditions and disciplined execution.
Volatility Squeeze Pro [JOAT]
Volatility Squeeze Pro — Advanced Volatility Compression Analysis System
This indicator addresses a specific analytical challenge in volatility analysis: how to identify periods when different volatility measurements show compression relationships that may indicate potential energy buildup in the market. It combines two distinct volatility calculation methods—standard deviation-based bands and ATR-based channels—with a momentum oscillator to provide comprehensive volatility state analysis.
Why This Combination Provides Unique Analytical Value
Traditional volatility indicators typically focus on single measurements, but markets exhibit different types of volatility that require different analytical approaches:
1. **Closing Price Volatility** (Standard Deviation): Measures how much closing prices deviate from their average
2. **Trading Range Volatility** (ATR): Measures the actual high-to-low trading ranges
3. **Directional Momentum**: Measures where price sits within its recent range
The problem with using these individually:
- Standard deviation alone doesn't account for intraday volatility
- ATR alone doesn't consider closing price clustering
- Momentum alone doesn't provide volatility context
- No single measurement captures the complete volatility picture
This indicator's originality lies in creating a comprehensive volatility analysis system that:
**Identifies Volatility Compression**: When closing price volatility contracts inside trading range volatility, it suggests potential energy buildup
**Provides Momentum Context**: Shows directional bias during compression periods
**Offers Multi-Dimensional Analysis**: Combines three different analytical approaches into one coherent system
**Delivers Real-Time Assessment**: Continuously monitors the relationship between different volatility types
Technical Innovation and Originality
While individual components (Bollinger Bands, Keltner Channels, Linear Regression) are standard, the innovation lies in:
1. **Volatility Relationship Detection**: The mathematical comparison between standard deviation bands and ATR channels creates a unique compression identification system
2. **Integrated Momentum Analysis**: Linear regression-based momentum calculation provides directional context specifically during volatility compression periods
3. **Multi-State Visualization**: The indicator provides clear visual encoding of different volatility states (compressed vs. normal) with momentum direction
4. **Adaptive Threshold System**: The squeeze detection automatically adapts to different instruments and timeframes without manual calibration
How the Components Work Together Analytically
The three components create a comprehensive volatility analysis framework:
**Standard Deviation Component**: Measures closing price dispersion around the mean
float bbBasis = ta.sma(close, bbLength)
float bbDev = bbMult * ta.stdev(close, bbLength)
float bbUpper = bbBasis + bbDev
float bbLower = bbBasis - bbDev
**ATR Channel Component**: Measures actual trading range volatility
float kcBasis = ta.ema(close, kcLength)
float kcRange = ta.atr(atrLength)
float kcUpper = kcBasis + kcRange * kcMult
float kcLower = kcBasis - kcRange * kcMult
**Squeeze Detection Logic**: Identifies when closing price volatility compresses within trading range volatility
bool squeezeOn = bbLower > kcLower and bbUpper < kcUpper
// This condition indicates closing prices are clustering more tightly
// than the typical trading range would suggest
**Momentum Context Component**: Provides directional bias during compression
float highestHigh = ta.highest(high, momLength)
float lowestLow = ta.lowest(low, momLength)
float momentum = ta.linreg(close - math.avg(highestHigh, lowestLow), momLength, 0)
float momSmooth = ta.sma(momentum, smoothLength)
The analytical relationship creates a system where:
- Squeeze detection identifies WHEN volatility compression occurs
- Momentum analysis shows WHERE price is positioned during compression
- Combined analysis provides both timing and directional context
How the Volatility Comparison Works
The indicator compares two volatility measurements:
Standard Deviation Bands
These measure how much closing prices deviate from their average. When prices cluster tightly around the average, the bands contract.
// Standard deviation bands calculation
float bbBasis = ta.sma(close, bbLength)
float bbDev = bbMult * ta.stdev(close, bbLength)
float bbUpper = bbBasis + bbDev
float bbLower = bbBasis - bbDev
ATR-Based Channels
These measure volatility using Average True Range—the typical distance between high and low prices. They respond to the actual trading range rather than closing price dispersion.
// ATR-based channels calculation
float kcBasis = ta.ema(close, kcLength)
float kcRange = ta.atr(atrLength)
float kcUpper = kcBasis + kcRange * kcMult
float kcLower = kcBasis - kcRange * kcMult
The Squeeze Condition
A "squeeze" is detected when the standard deviation bands are completely contained within the ATR channels:
// Squeeze detection
bool squeezeOn = bbLower > kcLower and bbUpper < kcUpper
This condition indicates that closing price volatility has compressed relative to the overall trading range.
The Momentum Component
The momentum oscillator measures where price sits relative to its recent high-low range, using linear regression for smoothing:
// Momentum calculation
float highestHigh = ta.highest(high, momLength)
float lowestLow = ta.lowest(low, momLength)
float momentum = ta.linreg(close - math.avg(highestHigh, lowestLow), momLength, 0)
float momSmooth = ta.sma(momentum, smoothLength)
Positive values indicate price is above the midpoint of its recent range; negative values indicate below.
Why Display Both Together
The squeeze detection shows WHEN volatility is compressed. The momentum reading shows the current directional bias of price within that compression. Together, they provide two pieces of information:
1. Is volatility currently compressed? (squeeze status)
2. Where is price leaning within the current range? (momentum)
These are observations about current conditions, not predictions about future movement.

Important Limitations and Realistic Expectations
Volatility compression detection is a mathematical relationship between calculations—it does not predict future price movements
Many compression periods do not result in significant price expansion or directional moves
Momentum direction during compression does not reliably indicate future breakout direction
This indicator analyzes current and historical volatility conditions only—it cannot predict future volatility
False signals are common—not every squeeze leads to tradeable price movement
Different parameter settings will produce different compression detection sensitivity
Market conditions, news events, and fundamental factors often override technical volatility patterns
No volatility indicator can predict the timing, direction, or magnitude of future price movements
This tool should be used as one component of comprehensive market analysis
Appropriate Use Cases
This indicator is designed for:
- Volatility state analysis and monitoring
- Educational study of volatility relationships
- Multi-dimensional volatility assessment
- Supplementary analysis alongside other technical tools
- Understanding market compression/expansion cycles
This indicator is NOT designed for:
- Standalone trading signal generation
- Guaranteed breakout prediction
- Automated trading system triggers
- Market timing precision
- Replacement of fundamental analysis
Understanding Volatility Analysis Limitations
Volatility analysis, while useful for understanding market conditions, has inherent limitations:
- Past volatility patterns do not guarantee future patterns
- Compression periods can extend much longer than expected
- Expansion periods may be brief and insufficient for trading
- External factors (news, fundamentals) often override technical patterns
- Different markets and timeframes exhibit different volatility characteristics

NW Curved Interest ZonesThis indicator automatically scans and plots curved (non-linear) interest zones using Nadaraya-Watson kernel regression smoothing to create a dynamic, adaptive "mean" curve. It then identifies and draws the strongest parallel curved zones where price has repeatedly bounced with statistical validation – perfect for non-linear, organic trending or ranging markets.
How It Works (Technical Methodology)
Curved Mean Calculation
The core curve is generated via Nadaraya-Watson kernel regression (Gaussian weighting):
Smooths closing prices over the lookback period with user-adjustable bandwidth (default 30.0) – higher = smoother/less reactive, lower = tighter fit.
Range methods: "Lookback Bars" (default 400), "Fixed Start Date", or "Entire History".
Channel Envelope Detection
Measures maximum deviations above/below the smoothed curve across the period.
Defines full channel height and base offset for percentage-based zoning.
Stable Update & Anti-Repaint Logic
Full recalculation only after user-defined closed bars (default 50) OR on forced break (if price escapes visible zone envelope).
All data (curve points, slope for projection, levels, scores) snapshotted and frozen until next confirmed update.
Prevents flickering/live-bar repainting while allowing adaptive refresh.
Auto Mode Scanning
When enabled:
Scans channel height in % steps (default 1.0%).
Each candidate creates a thin curved zone parallel to the NW curve (thickness % of price, default 0.01%).
Counts valid "hits": Price touches zone and holds without break for user-defined bars (default 20).
Break source: "Close" (conservative) or "Wick" (sensitive).
Direction inferred from close relative to zone center.
Level Selection
Ranks by hit count, filters close clusters (min distance %), limits to max zones (default 8).
Manual mode: Directly applies user percentages (e.g., 0/50/100 for bottom/median/top).
Curved Zone Construction
Zones drawn as smooth, filled polylines (curved=true) following the kernel regression shape.
Historical section uses exact smoothed points; future projection uses last slope for realistic extension.
Optional long future extension or limited projection.
Dynamic coloring: Supply (above price), Demand (below price).
Dashboard
Table displays current price at each zone (stable during bar), % level, hit count (green when strong).
Update status with countdown or "TRIGGERED!" on force break.
How to Use
Ideal for markets with natural curvature (parabolic moves, rounded bottoms/tops, organic trends).
High hit counts: Proven curved support/resistance – expect strong reactions.
Bandwidth: Higher (50+) for major structural curves; lower (10–20) for shorter-term adaptive zones.
Hold Bars: Increase for stricter validation in noisy assets.
Force Break Update: Keeps zones relevant during strong trends/breakouts.
Supply Zones (Curved above price): Dynamic overhead resistance.
Demand Zones (Curved below price): Dynamic underlying support.
Confluence: Excellent with volume, order blocks, or divergence for entries/exits.
Manual Mode: Quickly overlay classic % (e.g., channel parallels).
Smooth, non-repainting curved zones provide superior visual alignment to real price action compared to linear channels.

Market Acceptance Envelope [Interakktive]The Market Acceptance Envelope (MAE) is a diagnostic tool that shows where price statistically belongs — not where it might go. Unlike traditional bands that expand with volatility, MAE expands with acceptance: regions where price rotates comfortably, efficiency drops, and the market agrees on fair value.
This is the anti-Bollinger thesis: bands should represent where price IS accepted, not where it MIGHT reach based on standard deviation.
█ USAGE
The filled corridor represents the current acceptance zone — where price has demonstrated rotational behavior with low directional efficiency. When price is inside the corridor, it's "home." When outside, it's exploring territory the market hasn't yet accepted.
For discretionary traders, MAE provides instant context: "Is price where it belongs, or is it extended?"
For systematic traders, the exported values (confidence, asymmetry, position) can inform position sizing and filter logic.
█ ACCEPTANCE CENTROID
Unlike traditional bands centered on a moving average, MAE uses an Acceptance Centroid — a time-weighted price level where acceptance behavior concentrates. The centroid is calculated by weighting price by:
• Inverse efficiency (low efficiency = high acceptance)
• Volatility stability (stable vol = higher weight)
• Dwell factor (time spent near level)
This means the centroid drifts toward where price actually rotates, not simply where it averages.
█ ASYMMETRIC BOUNDARIES
MAE calculates upper and lower boundaries independently. Markets rarely treat up and down equally — during uptrends, the upper boundary may be wider (more accepted upside exploration), while the lower boundary stays tight (quick rejection of dips).
This asymmetry is visible on the chart and exported as a metric (-1 to +1).
█ CONFIDENCE-BASED VISIBILITY
The corridor's opacity reflects acceptance confidence:
• High confidence → clearly visible corridor (price is in accepted rotation)
• Low confidence → faded corridor (trending/directional market, acceptance not established)
When the corridor fades, it's telling you: "Acceptance hasn't been earned here yet."
█ WHAT THIS INDICATOR IS
• A diagnostic acceptance envelope showing where price statistically belongs
• Asymmetric by design — upper and lower calculated independently
• Confidence-weighted visibility — fades when acceptance is not earned
• Non-repainting — uses closed-bar data only
█ WHAT THIS INDICATOR IS NOT
• NOT Bollinger Bands (no standard deviation around a mean)
• NOT Keltner Channels (no ATR-scaled envelope)
• NOT a signal generator — no touches = signals philosophy
• NO arrows, NO entries/exits, NO buy/sell recommendations
█ HOW IT WORKS
MAE uses an acceptance-weighted calculation approach:
1. ACCEPTANCE WEIGHT
Each bar receives a weight based on:
• Efficiency: (1 - efficiency) — low efficiency = rotational = high acceptance
• Volatility Stability: stable vol environment = higher weight
• Dwell Factor: price staying near central tendency = higher weight
2. ACCEPTANCE CENTROID
Weighted average of price using acceptance weights:
centroid = Σ(price × weight) / Σ(weight)
Smoothed adaptively — faster during drift, slower when stable.
3. ASYMMETRIC BOUNDARIES
Upper and lower distances calculated separately:
• rngUp = acceptance-weighted average of (price - centroid) when price > centroid
• rngDn = acceptance-weighted average of (centroid - price) when price < centroid
4. CONFIDENCE SCORE
Composite of average acceptance weight, volatility stability, and centroid stability.
Maps to corridor opacity: high confidence = visible, low confidence = faded.

Market State Intelligence [Interakktive]Market State Intelligence (MSI) is a diagnostic market-context indicator that reveals how the market is behaving — not where price "should" go.
MSI does not generate buy/sell signals. Instead, it classifies market conditions into clear behavioural regimes by continuously measuring:
- DRIVE (directional effort)
- OPPOSITION (absorption / resistance)
- STABILITY (structural persistence)
MSI is designed to answer three practical questions:
- What state is the market in right now?
- Is energy building, releasing, or decaying?
- Is participation aligned with price, or opposing it?
█ WHAT MSI DOES
MSI operates as a real-time regime classification engine that processes each closed bar through three independent measurement systems:
DRIVE — Directional Effort (0–100)
- Displacement efficiency (net progress vs total path)
- Range expansion quality (actual range vs expected ATR range)
- Body dominance (body vs candle range)
OPPOSITION — Absorption / Resistance (0–100)
- Wick pressure (rejection relative to attempt)
- Effort–result gap (high effort, low progress)
- Reversal density (counter-moves frequency)
STABILITY — Persistence (0–100)
- Condition persistence (how long conditions hold)
- Variance score (flip frequency)
- Follow-through consistency (reaction continuity)
These three forces feed a deterministic classifier with hysteresis (anti-flicker) to identify five regimes:
COMPRESSION — low drive, low opposition, higher stability (pressure building, direction unclear)
EXPANSION — high drive, low opposition (directional energy release)
TREND — medium-high drive, higher stability, low-medium opposition (healthy continuation)
DISTRIBUTION — medium drive, high opposition (effort absorbed; progress blocked)
TRANSITION — rapidly rising opposition, low stability (regime breakdown / uncertainty)
█ WHAT MSI DOES NOT DO
- No buy/sell signals, entries/exits, or performance claims
- No prediction of future direction
- No repainting: calculations use closed-bar data only
MSI is a market state layer intended to support your execution framework.
█ VISUAL SYSTEM
MSI uses a layered visual grammar designed to remain readable on live charts:
Regime Ribbon
A thin horizontal band showing the current regime via colour. Ribbon opacity reflects regime confidence (stronger confidence = more visible).
Pressure Envelope (core visual)
A soft corridor around price that expands with Drive and becomes more visible as Opposition increases. This visualises "pressure thickness" around current action (not a volatility band for entries).
Structural Memory
Faint background stains appear where regimes previously failed (e.g., expansion collapsing into absorption). These are behavioural context zones showing where market intention was rejected — not support/resistance.
Regime Change Markers (optional)
Subtle labels appear when regimes transition after confirmation. Useful for replay and education.
Effort Halo (optional)
Candle highlighting when Opposition materially exceeds Drive, indicating absorption/inefficiency.
█ HUD PANEL
The HUD displays:
- Current regime name + colour indicator
- A context gate showing whether conditions are aligned with long-bias or short-bias context (not an entry/exit system)
█ REGIME LEGEND
When enabled, displays:
- A one-line definition of the current regime
- Live Drive / Opposition / Stability values for interpretation
█ TIME-TO-DECISION METER
A visual pressure gauge that tends to fill during Compression (energy building) and drain during Expansion (energy releasing). It is a state-tracking meter, not a timing tool.
█ SETTINGS
MSI — Settings
- Preset Mode: Scalper / Swing / Position
- Analysis Mode (Minimal): ON = subtle visuals, OFF = full intensity
- Regime Ribbon, Structural Memory, HUD Panel, Time-to-Decision Meter, Effort Halo
MSI — Visual Options
- Show Regime Changes: Labels when regime transitions occur
- Show Regime Legend: Definition and live values display
- Panel Position: Move the entire panel anywhere on chart
MSI — Advanced (Tuning)
- Sensitivity (0.5–2.0)
- Smoothing (0.5–2.0)
- Memory Decay (0.5–2.0)
- Visual Intensity (Low / Medium / High)
█ PRESETS EXPLAINED
Scalper
Higher sensitivity + lower smoothing + faster memory decay. Best for 1m–15m monitoring.
Swing (default)
Balanced behaviour. Best for 15m–4H analysis.
Position
Lower sensitivity + higher smoothing + slower memory decay. Best for 4H–1D macro context.
█ STRUCTURAL MEMORY
When a regime fails (example: Expansion → Distribution), MSI creates a memory imprint:
- Fixed stain window (preset dependent)
- Strength decays over time
- Limited to a maximum number of imprints to reduce chart clutter
These zones represent behavioural rejection, not levels.
█ SUITABLE MARKETS
MSI is designed for Forex, Crypto, Indices, Stocks, and Commodities.
Works from intraday to Daily, with particularly strong readability on 15m–4H.
█ DISCLAIMER

Pivot Point Zones [JOAT]Pivot Point Zones — Multi-Formula Pivot Levels with ATR Zones
Pivot Point Zones calculates and displays traditional pivot points with five formula options, enhanced with ATR-based zones around each level. This creates more practical trading zones that account for price noise around key levels—because price rarely reacts at exact mathematical levels.
What Makes This Indicator Unique
Unlike basic pivot point indicators, Pivot Point Zones:
Offers five different pivot calculation formulas in one indicator
Creates ATR-based zones around each level for realistic reaction areas
Pulls data from higher timeframes automatically
Displays clean labels with exact price values
Provides a comprehensive dashboard with all levels
What This Indicator Does
Calculates pivot points using Standard, Fibonacci, Camarilla, Woodie, and more formulas
Draws horizontal lines at Pivot, R1-R3, and S1-S3 levels
Creates ATR-based zones around each level for realistic price reaction areas
Displays labels with exact price values
Updates automatically based on higher timeframe closes
Provides fills between zone boundaries for visual clarity
Pivot Formulas Explained
// Standard Pivot - Classic (H+L+C)/3 calculation
pp := (pivotHigh + pivotLow + pivotClose) / 3
r1 := 2 * pp - pivotLow
s1 := 2 * pp - pivotHigh
r2 := pp + pivotRange
s2 := pp - pivotRange
// Fibonacci Pivot - Uses Fib ratios for level spacing
r1 := pp + 0.382 * pivotRange
r2 := pp + 0.618 * pivotRange
r3 := pp + 1.0 * pivotRange
// Camarilla Pivot - Tighter levels for intraday
r1 := pivotClose + pivotRange * 1.1 / 12
r2 := pivotClose + pivotRange * 1.1 / 6
r3 := pivotClose + pivotRange * 1.1 / 4
// Woodie Pivot - Weights current close more heavily
pp := (pivotHigh + pivotLow + 2 * close) / 4
// TD Pivot - Conditional based on open/close relationship
x = pivotClose < pivotOpen ? pivotHigh + 2*pivotLow + pivotClose :
pivotClose > pivotOpen ? 2*pivotHigh + pivotLow + pivotClose :
pivotHigh + pivotLow + 2*pivotClose
pp := x / 4
Formula Characteristics
Standard — Classic pivot calculation. Balanced levels, good for swing trading.
Fibonacci — Uses 0.382, 0.618, and 1.0 ratios. Popular with Fibonacci traders.
Camarilla — Tighter levels derived from range. Excellent for intraday mean-reversion.
Woodie — Weights current close more heavily. More responsive to recent price action.
TD — Conditional calculation based on open/close relationship. Adapts to bar type.
Zone System
Each pivot level includes an ATR-based zone that provides a more realistic area for potential price reactions:
// ATR-based zone width calculation
float atr = ta.atr(atrLength)
float zoneHalf = atr * zoneWidth / 2
// Zone boundaries around each level
zoneUpper = level + zoneHalf
zoneLower = level - zoneHalf
This accounts for market noise and helps avoid false breakout signals at exact level prices.
Visual Features
Pivot Lines — Horizontal lines at each calculated level
Zone Fills — Transparent fills between zone boundaries
Level Labels — Labels showing level name and exact price (e.g., "PP 45123.50")
Color Coding :
- Yellow: Pivot Point (PP)
- Red gradient: Resistance levels (R1, R2, R3) - darker = further from PP
- Green gradient: Support levels (S1, S2, S3) - darker = further from PP
Color Scheme
Pivot Color — Default: #FFEB3B (yellow) — Central pivot point
Resistance Color — Default: #FF5252 (red) — R1, R2, R3 levels

How to Use It
For Intraday Trading:
Use Daily pivots on intraday charts (15m, 1H)
Pivot point often acts as the day's "fair value" reference
Camarilla levels work well for intraday mean-reversion
R1/S1 are the most commonly tested levels
For Swing Trading:
Use Weekly pivots on daily charts
Standard or Fibonacci formulas work well
R2/S2 and R3/S3 become more relevant
Zone boundaries provide realistic entry/exit areas
For Support/Resistance:
R levels above price act as resistance targets
S levels below price act as support targets
Zone boundaries are more realistic than exact lines
Multiple formula confluence adds significance
Alerts Available
DPZ Cross Above Pivot — Price crosses above central pivot
DPZ Cross Below Pivot — Price crosses below central pivot
DPZ Cross Above R1/R2 — Price breaks resistance levels
DPZ Cross Below S1/S2 — Price breaks support levels
Best Practices
Match pivot timeframe to your trading style (Daily for intraday, Weekly for swing)
Use zones instead of exact levels for more realistic expectations
Camarilla is best for mean-reversion; Standard/Fibonacci for breakouts

BTC - RVPM: Run Velocity & Probability MapBTC – RVPM: Run Velocity & Probability Map | RM
Strategic Context: Understanding Price Runs
A "Price Run" (also known as a streak or consecutive sessions) is a foundational concept in time-series analysis that measures the duration of a price movement without a significant counter-signal. While common indicators like RSI or MACD measure magnitude or momentum, they often ignore the Persistence of the trend. Historically, markets move through cycles of expansion and mean-reversion. A Price Run represents a period of "Unidirectional Flow" — a fingerprint of institutional accumulation or systematic distribution. However, standard "run-counting" is often too simplistic for the volatile crypto markets.
What Makes RVPM Special?
Most community run-counters are binary; they simply tell you if X days were green or red. The RVPM distinguishes itself through three proprietary layers:
• The Intensity Filter: It doesnt just count days; it counts effort . By ignoring "flat" days through a percentage-return threshold, it filters out noise that would otherwise skew the statistical probability.
• Dynamic Benchmarking: Instead of using an arbitrary number (like "7 days"), the RVPM looks back at 200 bars of history to find the local "Persistence Ceiling." It adapts to the current volatility regime of Bitcoin.
• The Velocity Score: It transform simple counts into a -100 to +100 histogram, allowing traders to see momentum "decaying" (e.g., dropping from 90 to 70) even if the price continues to rise.
The 3 Pillars of the Engine
1. Velocity Mapping (Persistence Histogram)
The histogram calculates the density of directional effort within a defined window. It functions as the "Pulse" of the trend, mapping market behavior into three distinct zones:
• High Velocity Zone (> 80 or < -80): Institutional Expansion. This identifies a "clean" move where one side of the market possesses total structural control. In this zone, the trend is efficient, and counter-signals are immediately absorbed.
• The Neutral Zone (Near Zero): Momentum Equilibrium. When the histogram fluctuates near the zero line, the market is in a "Recharge Phase." Neither bulls nor bears are achieving persistent dominance. Tactically, this is the "Waiting Room" where range-bound chop is likely, and traders should wait for a new "Expansion" spike before committing.
• Velocity Decay: The Exhaustion Warning. Velocity Decay occurs when the indicator moves from an extreme (e.g., +95) back toward the zero line (e.g., +50) while the price is still rising. This is a "Persistence Divergence." It tells you that while the trend is still moving, the consistency of the bars is fragmenting. The "fuel" is being depleted, and the trend is transitioning from an "Institutional Expansion" into a "Speculative Exhaustion."
2. n-of-m Consistency (The Pips)
The "Pips" (Circles) mark when a specific consistency threshold is met (e.g., 5 out of 7 bars in one direction). This identifies "Leaky Trends" that are still statistically dominated by one side of the ledger.
3. Statistical Exhaustion (The Arrows)
The Dark Red (Top) and Dark Green (Bottom) triangles represent the engine's "Mean-Reversion Signal." The calculation is based on a Relative Maximum Streak (RMS) logic: the script tracks the current linear, consecutive bar count (ignoring bars that fail the Intensity Filter) and continuously benchmarks this against the highest streak recorded over the last 200 bars ( ta.highest(streak, 200) ). The triangles are triggered specifically when the current run reaches 80% of this historical record (the "Anomaly Threshold"). Mathematically, this identifies a move that is statistically pushing against its half-year limit. By using this dynamic threshold rather than a fixed number, the "Extreme" signal automatically tightens during low-volatility regimes and expands during high-volatility expansions, ensuring the signal only appears when the "statistical rubber band" is at a true breaking point.
Operational Interface: The RVPM Dashboard
The Status Dashboard (Top Right) serves as a real-time monitor for momentum health, providing a clean summary of the underlying persistence data:
• Current STREAK: The active, consecutive count of bars meeting the Intensity Filter. It is dynamically color-coded (Cyan/Bullish or Red/Bearish) to provide an instant read on trend seniority.
• WINDOW Consistency: Measures the Momentum Density (the n-of-m value). A value of "6" in a "7-bar" window indicates a high-conviction regime that is successfully absorbing pullbacks without losing its primary trajectory.
Tactical Playbook: The Mean-Reversion Rule
Price action typically follows a "Rubber Band" effect. The further it is stretched without a break, the more "unstable" the trend becomes as the pool of available buyers or sellers is depleted.
• The Setup: Wait for the Triangle Arrows to appear.
• The Logic: The move has reached a 200-day anomaly. A "Liquidity Vacuum" is forming on the opposite side.
• The Action: This is a high-probability Mean-Reversion signal. It is a tactical time to take profits or look for a sharp snap-back move toward the 20-period moving average or the "Institutional Mean."
Settings & Parameters
• Window Length (m): The lookback window used to calculate the Velocity Score.
• Required Days (n): The minimum number of directional bars needed within the window to trigger a "Consistency Pip."
• Intensity Filter (%): The minimum % change required for a bar to be counted toward a run.
• Lookback Period: The historical window (Default: 200 bars) used to calculate the "Maximum Streak" records for exhaustion alerts.
Timeframe Recommendation
The RVPM is best viewed on the Daily (1D) timeframe. This filters out intraday noise and provides the most reliable statistical mapping for macro exhaustion points.
