Displacement [QuantVue]Displacement refers to a significant and forceful price movement that indicates a potential shift in market sentiment or trend. Displacement is characterized by a strong push in price action, often seen after a period of consolidation or within a trending market. It is a key concept used to identify the strength of a move and to confirm the direction of the market.
The "Displacement" indicator does this by focusing on identifying strong, directional price movements by combining candlestick analysis with volatility (ATR).
Displacement often appears as a group of candles that are all positioned in the same direction, these candles typically have large bodies and short wicks.
How the indicator works:
Body Size Requirement: Ensures that only candles with a significant body size (relative to their total range) are considered, helping to identify strong market moves.
Consecutive Candle Analysis: Identifies shifts in market sentiment by requiring a series of consecutive bullish or bearish candles to confirm a potential change in trend.
ATR-Based Analysis: Uses the Average True Range (ATR) to gauge market volatility and filter out minor price fluctuations, focusing on substantial movements.
Once all of the requirements are met a triangle is plotted above or below the bar.

Arithmetic Candlesticks (Zeiierman)█ Arithmetic Candlestick - Overview
Arithmetic Candlesticks (Zeiierman) introduce a new way to read charts by applying logical arithmetic to real price data. These candlesticks focus on filtering out noise and smoothing price movements using a bell-shaped curve, which helps to refine the data and highlight the true trend. This approach provides a clearer view of market trends, allowing traders to interpret price action more effectively with minimal lag and distraction.
⚪ What is Arithmetic Candlesticks
Arithmetic Candlesticks use a calculation method rooted in the idea that the market moves in patterns that can be identified and predicted by examining past price movements.
Analyzing momentum, price action, and trend patterns is useful for traders who want to quickly scan and identify price patterns, trends, and momentum in the market. The system searches for these patterns and trends to anticipate future price movements. Traders and investors can identify trends hidden in market noise, enabling them to uncover trading opportunities that might not be immediately obvious to the naked eye.
⚪ Eliminates price noise
The Arithmetic Candlestick noise filtering function is used to reduce price noise, which is the randomness in the price movement of an asset caused by market participants trading on a short-term basis. The idea behind the filter is that it eliminates the impact of short-term fluctuations in the price, thus providing a more accurate picture of the overall trend.
█ Capturing Trends with precise chart reading
Trend moves are some of the biggest moneymakers in trading; in fact, trading in the direction of the trend reduces risk and increases profit potential. Arithmetic Candlestick helps traders do just that.
In a fast-moving and volatile market characterized by high-frequency algorithms, retail traders have a hard time distinguishing the real trend from the noise. Arithmetic Candlesticks are designed to filter out the noise created by insignificant price moves and leave traders with the price action that matters, namely a clear and insightful chart reading. Due to its sophisticated mathematical calculations, Arithmetic Candlesticks are able to analyze any market and timeframe.
█ How to use Arithmetic Candlesticks
Arithmetic Candlesticks is an all-in-one trend and momentum tool that can be used stand-alone or in conjunction with other indicators. Its primary use is to provide a clear chart reading, easily identify trends, and help traders stay longer in trends.
The indicator includes excellent momentum features that offer insights into the current momentum and the strength of the price action. This provides traders with a unique chart experience that yields valuable insights. The indicator boasts numerous features, each of which can be used stand-alone or in combination with others. Read more about the features below.
These candles can be used in conjunction with other indicators such as support/resistance, trendlines, ICT trading, and other patterns.
█ Arithmetic Candlesticks features
The indicator comes with tons of great features that make the indicator into its own system that can be used stand-alone. You find everything from trend reading, entry/exit points, identifying momentum, and auto-stop loss.
⚪ Candle Modes:
Traders can select from three different types of arithmetic candle calculations and enable our volatility-adjusted filter for all of them. By default, the candles are set to Arithmetic candlesticks. However, depending on their trading preferences, users can select Arithmetic + Heikin Ashi Candles or Impulse + Wicks Candles.
The Heikin Ashi mode of the candlesticks makes the indicator smoother and more trend-friendly.
The Impulse + Wick mode of the candlesticks makes the indicator responsive to momentum. The length of the wicks represents the strength of the current momentum. The longer the wicks, the greater the momentum in the market.
If traders enable the Volatility Adjusted candles , the indicator becomes much more responsive to volatility moves, which is a way of making the candlesticks more responsive to significant price movements.
⚪ Trend coloring
Arithmetic candlesticks come in three different color modes: the default one, the gradient one, and the advanced trend coloring. Enable the Trend coloring if you want to engage in long-term trend trading. This filter does not change the arithmetic candlesticks, only the bar coloring.
⚪ Buy and Sell signals
To make trend trading easier to understand, we have included Buy/Sell signals. These signals are based both on the type of candlesticks selected and the type of coloring used. In addition, they come with three filters and are available in scalping and trend modes.
Candle Color Filter: A buy signal will only occur if the candlesticks are bullish, and a sell signal will only occur if the candlesticks are bearish.
Trend Tracker Filter: A buy signal will only occur if the Trend Tracker is bullish, and a sell signal will only occur if the Trend Tracker is bearish.
When both filters are applied, it means that both the candle color and the Trend Tracker should have the same sign in order to trigger a signal.
These filters are very effective and should be used when utilizing the signals.
Take Profit signals can be enabled to help traders know when to take profits.
Adaptive Stop Loss can be enabled for the signals, helping traders manage their risk.
⚪ Trend Tracker
The Trend Tracker line provides insights about the underlying trend. Adjust it if you want to engage in scalping, which makes the line much more responsive. Set the underlying speed of the trend to either Fast or Slow. This Trend Tracker works well in conjunction with Arithmetic Candlesticks and the associated signals.
⚪ Trend Sentiment
Enable Trend Sentiment to identify the levels at which the market is considered bullish or bearish. This feature helps you gauge the overall market direction, allowing you to align your trades with the prevailing trend. The Trend Sentiment also measures the strength of the trend, highlighting whether the current price action reflects a strong or weak trend. Adjust the sensitivity to determine how early or late you want to capture these trend signals.
⚪ Impulse
Enable Impulse Signals to understand when the market is making a significant move, often leading to a pullback or pause. These Impulse Signals can indicate the very start of a trend or serve as the first sign of a reversal. Enable 'Significant Impulses' if you only want to display the most significant market impulses.
█ How is Arithmetic Candlesticks Calculated?
⚪ Candlesticks
These candlesticks combine advanced smoothing techniques with price pattern recognition, giving traders a clearer view of market dynamics.
Adaptive Smoothing: The core of this smoothing approach is its ability to adjust dynamically based on market conditions. It reduces lag while staying responsive to price changes. This adaptive nature allows the candlesticks to follow the price action smoothly, minimizing the influence of short-term fluctuations. As a result, the trend is depicted with greater accuracy, helping traders to stay in tune with the market’s true direction.
Refined Smoothing with Weighted Averages: Another key component of the smoothing process involves applying a refined technique that uses a bell-shaped curve to weight price data. This method reduces the impact of outlier movements, resulting in a smoother, more continuous curve that accurately represents the market's central trend. This ensures that the candlesticks reflect a more balanced view of price action, focusing on the significant movements while filtering out unnecessary noise.
⚪ Trend Coloring
The Trend Coloring feature offers a powerful visualization tool that helps traders quickly identify the prevailing market trend and its strength. By analyzing market structure and the velocity of price movements, this feature provides a clear, dynamic view of the long-term trend direction.
Market Structure Analysis: The Trend Coloring is rooted in a thorough analysis of market structure, focusing on key price levels over time. By evaluating these levels, the system determines whether the market is in an uptrend, downtrend, or ranging phase. This information is then used to color the chart according to the current trend direction, providing a visual cue that makes it easier to align your trades with the broader market movement.
Velocity of Price Movements: . In addition to identifying the trend direction, the system also calculates the velocity of price movements. This involves assessing how quickly or slowly prices are advancing in a particular direction, offering deeper insight into the trend's strength and momentum. Faster price movements suggest a stronger trend, while slower movements may indicate a weakening or consolidating market. This dynamic approach ensures that the Trend Coloring not only highlights the trend but also reflects its intensity and potential sustainability.
⚪ Buy and Sell signals
The Buy/Sell signals are generated using a sophisticated approach that tracks key price action levels to determine market direction and momentum. This method constantly evaluates the relationship between the current price and dynamically adjusting levels that reflect the underlying market conditions. By staying in tune with the flow of the market, this approach effectively captures the onset of new trends while reducing the lag typically associated with traditional indicators.
Dynamic Price Action Levels: The signals are based on critical price action levels that adapt in real-time to market movements. These levels serve as flexible thresholds that help identify potential buy or sell opportunities. When the price interacts with these levels, it triggers signals that indicate possible entry or exit points, aligning your trades with the prevailing market direction.
Price Patterns: The algorithm also recognizes and integrates specific price patterns that are often precursors to significant market moves. By identifying these patterns, the system can anticipate changes in market direction more accurately, enabling earlier and more precise signals. This helps in capturing trend reversals or continuations effectively.
Momentum-Driven Adjustments: The system's price action levels are not static; they adjust dynamically in response to strong price movements. This ensures that the signals are not only timely but also in sync with the underlying market momentum, making the system highly effective in volatile conditions where quick decision-making is crucial.
⚪ Trend Tracker
The Trend Tracker utilizes the core principles of Arithmetic Candlesticks, including their sophisticated smoothing techniques and pattern recognition capabilities. By leveraging these features, the Trend Tracker effectively filters out market noise, allowing it to present a smooth and accurate representation of the current trend. This makes it easier to identify whether the market is trending upwards, downwards, or entering a period of consolidation.
Adaptive to Market Conditions: The Trend Tracker is not static; it dynamically adjusts as market conditions change. Whether the market is experiencing high volatility or moving through a quieter phase, the Trend Tracker remains responsive, continuously updating to reflect the most recent price action. This ensures that traders are always working with the most relevant information, making it easier to stay in sync with the market's true direction.
⚪ Trend Sentiment
Trend Sentiment analyzes key price levels and market structure to determine whether the current market sentiment is bullish or bearish. By examining the direction and momentum of price movements, it provides a straightforward view of the market's overall trend direction.
⚪ Impulse
Impulse monitors the market for sudden shifts in momentum, recognizing when the price is making a strong move that could lead to a trend continuation or a reversal. The feature is tuned to distinguish between regular market fluctuations and significant impulses. It focuses on the most meaningful price movements, ensuring that the signals you receive are relevant and actionable.
█ Important Note
Caution! Arithmetic candlesticks do not always reflect the actual price. Arithmetic uses smoothing and noise filtering to capture trends; hence, it might deviate from the actual close.
It's important to understand that Arithmetic Candlesticks are intended to provide a clearer picture of trend direction rather than exact price levels. Therefore, they should not be used as a substitute for actual market prices, especially in scenarios like backtesting or precise trade execution where exact price data is crucial. Instead, use Arithmetic Candlesticks as a tool for understanding trends and overall market direction, while relying on actual price data for decisions that require precise price points.

About Kenji
The Kenji 2.0 indicator represents a fresh perspective on average analysis. Traditional trading strategies and indicators reliant on average analysis often generate a lot of false signals, particularly in flat market conditions characterized by frequent average crossovers and directional changes. Consequently, their efficacy and potency are compromised.
The "Kenji" Indicator overcomes these limitations through a unique algorithm (based on combination of correlation analysis and moving average analysis) designed to circumvent common pitfalls associated with average analysis. By accurately identifying the current market state—indicated by color (red for a downward trend, blue for an uptrend, and green for a flat market)—the Kenji indicator enhances signal quality, enabling traders to navigate local trends comfortably.
This indicator not only generates signals for entering positions at optimal times but also provides guidance on profit-taking. Additionally, it assists in assessing signal aggressiveness, making it a valuable tool for both novice and experienced traders.
Rules of Trading
The rules of trading with the indicator are very simple: when the price enters the buy/sell zone (depicted by a blue/red colored area between the fast and slow averages), a signal to enter a position is generated. This position remains valid until either the market state changes (e.g., a shift from a downtrend to a flat or an uptrend) or a signal to close it appears (indicated by a blue/red cross, signaling a significant divergence between the price and average values).
Structure of the Indicator
The indicator comprises colored zones and level lines:
- Colored zones (marked blue, red, or green) are utilized for identifying trading opportunities and detecting entry points.
- Level lines (marked red and blue depending on the current price direction) are employed to identify whether the current price direction is upward or downward.
To streamline the trading process, the indicator displays "buy" and "sell" signals on the chart.
These signals are categorized into two groups: standard (trading with the basic lot size) and aggressive (trading with double the basic lot size). Additionally, take-profit zones are visualized on the chart using blue/red x-crosses. Red x-crosses indicate zones where profits on "sell" positions should be taken, while blue x-crosses indicate zones where profits on "buy" positions should be taken.
Input Parameters of the Indicator
The indicator utilizes several input parameters for configuration:
Slow Average Period: This parameter determines the period of the slow average. A larger period results in a more conservative response of the average to price changes.
Fast Average Period: This parameter determines the period of the fast average. Similar to the slow average period, a larger period leads to a more conservative response of the average to price changes.
Correlation Period: This parameter is utilized in correlation analysis to calculate the level of interconnection between the averages.
Stop Sensitivity: This parameter determines the take-profit zones displayed on the chart in the form of red/blue x-crosses. A higher parameter value corresponds to a larger take-profit value.
Version 2.0 updates:
Alerts and Notifications are added ("sell" and "buy" signals are sent as Alerts and Notifications).
Improved vizualisation
Improved algorithm (mechanics of stop-loss marks in modified)

xBrat SlingshotThe xBrat Slingshot Software is designed to identify measured Pull Backs during trends. The Software then identifies two different types of “with trend” trading signals and 1 “trend failure” signal (discussed further down the logic explanation). It is important to know that every pullback is NOT tradeable and a strong set of rules/logic must be used consistently to first measure the pullback. Then a set of repeatable rules/logic is used to identify trading signals when that pullback has found support or resistance within those measured pullback zones. The xBrat Slingshot Software does this all automatically using the following logic.
Long trade
If False Breakout Stochastics (Stoch) closes below 20%, and then closes above 80%, identify a swing low as the lowest price reached since the close below 20%.
When Stoch then closes back down below N%, the algorithm will identify a swing high as the highest price reached since the close above 80.
Behind the chart the software draws a fib retracement from swing low to swing high.
If price ever closed below the 61.8 at any time between the swing high bar and the bar that closed below N%, the software cancels the setup (and undraws pullback zone visuals).
Otherwise our software draws pullback zones at the following fib percentages that are commonly used when measuring pullbacks against a trend.
Pullback zone 1: 23.6-38.2 (default green, light opacity)
Pullback zone 2: 38.2-50 (default green, medium opacity)
Pullback zone 3: 50-61.8 (default green, dark opacity)
If price enters (either closes inside of or touches) a pullback zone and then closes above it without ever closing past (below) it, the setup is confirmed and fib extension targets are drawn (distance from high swing to end of the pullback, extended from the end of the pullback):
Target zone 1: 110-127 (default green, light opacity)
Target zone 2: 161-176 (default green, medium opacity)
Target zone 3: 262-286 (default green, dark opacity)
If price closes past (below) Pullback zone 3 before the setup is confirmed, cancel the setup (and undraw visuals).
Once target zones are drawn, the setup is confirmed and never undrawn.
Short trade
Reverse of the above long trade logic.
Pullback confirmation value: N%
Default zone colour: Red
Once the pullback zone is identified and sufficient initial Support or Resistance occurs within the pullback zones, they are locked along with the target Target Zones for the current move.
Then further confluences are used with our proprietary logic to identify 3 types of Trading Signals. Just because we have a pullback during a trend, doesn't mean we are going to get straight back to the trend. We have identified 2 special sets of confluences that occur in a predefined order to ensure the trend is being returned to with momentum.
These are the Type 1 and Type 2 Trading Signals Below. Then we have another set of circumstances/confluence for when a Trend Fails and traders need to be able to trade these. This is the 3rd type of Trade, a Type 3 below.
Type 1 Trade Signals - Trend Continuation - The following MUST occur within the 3 pullback zones. This signal uses Crosses of Fast and Slow EMA’s which denote the switch back for slingshot and the trend to resume in its original direction after a measured pullback. Then we apply our proprietary EMA cloud for moving out of the pull back zones as a final confirmation for the signal to be Printed.
Type 1 Buy Signals: Fast EMA (default period N, displacement 0) closes below the slow EMA (default period N, displacement N) while in a green pullback zone, and then the fast EMA closes back above the slow EMA without price ever breaking below the last pullback zone (green zones must still be printing). Draw a horizontal line N ticks for entry above the close of the confirmation bar and extend until the lower EMA cloud line breaks it – at which point the lower EMA cloud line is shown as trailing stop
Type 1 Sell Signals: Fast EMA (default period N, displacement 0) closes above the slow EMA (default period N, displacement N) while in a red pullback zone, and then the fast EMA closes back below the slow EMA without price ever breaking above the last pullback zone (red zones must still be printing). Draw a horizontal line N ticks below the close of the confirmation bar and extend until the upper EMA cloud line breaks it – at which point the upper EMA cloud line is shown as trailing stop.
These are the most common of the trading signals when price action follows all of our standard logic rules for a pullback and starts to return in the direction of the main trend after the measured pullback. The highest probability move is to Target 2.
Type 2 Trades - Trend Continuation - For this signal type the Fast and Slow EMA’s DO NOT Cross. BUT price action has to Enter our proprietary EMA cloud and close in the cloud. Then on a set “N” bars must move back out and close outside of the EMA Cloud back in the direction of the original trend. Again, All this must be done within the Pull back Zones.
Type 2 Buy Signal: A bar closes below the upper cloud line while in a green pullback zone, and then within N bars, a bar closes above the upper cloud line without ever breaking below the last pullback zone or the lower EMA Cloud line (green zones must still be printing). Draw a horizontal line N ticks above the close of this bar and extend until the lower EMA cloud line breaks it – at which point the lower EMA cloud line is shown as trailing stop.
Type 2 Sell Signal: A bar closes above the lower cloud line while in a red pullback zone, and then within N bars, a bar closes below the lower cloud line without ever breaking above the last pullback zone or upper EMA cloud line (red zones must still be printing). Draw a horizontal line N ticks below the close of this bar and extend until the upper cloud line breaks it – at which point the upper cloud line is shown as trailing stop.
These are Shallow pullbacks, but still hit the pullback zones. The price action in this instance returns to the direction of the main trend more quickly but still follows a different set of rules to that of Type 1 trades. The Highest Probability move is to target Two
Type 3 Trades - Trend failure - These are trend failure signals where the pullback zones are printed but the price action does not return to the main trend, BUT breaks the third pullback zone and breaks the slingshot rules for a Trend following trade setup. Our proprietary EMA Cloud positioning is then used to confirm and print the signal once the leading edge( direction dependent) moves out of the last pullback zone and we get a candle close with “N” percentage of the pull backs zone's depth.
Type 3 Buy Signal: A bar closes above the highest red pullback zone without pricing previously having ever touched the first red target zone for previous short with trend move. Draw a horizontal line N ticks above the close of the bar that broke the last zone and extend until the lower cloud line breaks it – at which point the lower cloud line is shown as a trailing stop.
Type 3 Sell Signal: A bar closes below the lowest green pullback zone without pricing having ever touched the previous first green target zone for previous long with trend move. Draw a horizontal line N ticks below the close of the bar that broke the last zone and extend until the upper cloud line breaks it – at which point the upper cloud line is shown as a trailing stop.
The Trailing Stop Line is also printed to help with trade management of these 3 different types of trades. This EMA trailing stop is adjustable.
This strategy is designed for Scalping, Day Trading and even Swing Trading. Works with Forex, Crypto, Futures and Stocks.

Market Flow with Convergence🟪 Overview
The "Market Flow with Convergence" indicator leverages advanced volume metrics to accurately measure the underlying market pressure by analyzing the cumulative buying and selling volumes with the TICK index. This unique combination helps identify potential market reversals and trends, providing a comprehensive view of market flow. The indicator is particularly useful for those looking to capture convergence and divergence signals, crucial for making informed trading decisions.
🟪 Features
Volume-Based Convergence: Calculates the buying and selling pressures based on volume data, to produce color coded convergence. Visually represents areas where buying or selling pressures align.
Divergence Detection: Identifies and visually represents areas where buying and selling pressures diverge from each other, which can indicate key market turning points.
TICK Index: Incorporates data from the TICK index, normalizing and smoothing the cumulative data to highlight potential market reversals and trends.
Cumulative Flow Crossovers: Identifies and visually represents areas where buying and selling pressures crossover and become the dominant market flow.
Customizable Visualization: Uses conditional coloring and shapes to provide a clear, easy-to-interpret visual representation of the market state, making it easier to spot critical signals at a glance.
🟪 How it Works
Leveraging a combination of volume analysis and market breadth data, particularly the TICK index, to assess the underlying market pressure. By normalizing key market metrics, the indicator provides a clear view of buying and selling activity over time. The flow is standard across all charts, but convergence will change based on the charts ticker.
The indicator tracks and aggregates movements in the TICK index, allowing for an assessment of the market's cumulative momentum. This cumulative measure, combined with volume-based analysis, helps traders identify potential shifts in market trends, whether they be continuations or reversals.
The visual output of the indicator is designed to be intuitive and actionable. Key market conditions are highlighted through color-coded histograms and plot shapes, making it easy to interpret the data and apply it in real-time trading scenarios.
Understanding the Convergence Color Codes
Gray: represent periods of the markets lack of convergence, where neither buyers nor sellers have a decisive advantage. These conditions may indicate market indecision or a potential reversal point. The gray bars can also suggest a period of consolidation before a significant move.
Green: this indicates that buying pressure is greater than selling pressure, suggesting a bullish market condition. This is typically seen when the market may be trending upwards or when buyers are gaining control.
Red: signifies that selling pressure exceeds buying pressure, indicating a bearish market condition. This can be a signal that the market is trending downwards or that sellers are dominating the market.
Understanding Flow Crossovers
Green Dots: correspond to crossovers where the buying pressure (from the TICK) crosses above the selling pressure. This crossover often signals a potential upward move or a bullish market opportunity.
Red Dots: indicate a crossover where the selling pressure (from the TICK) crosses above the buying pressure. This crossover typically suggests a potential downward move or a bearish market signal.
🟪 Usage Examples
If the selling flow is consistently over buying and convergence is red, it indicates a strong and sustained bearish trend. This points to a potential downward move, with sellers predominantly in control.
When the buying flow is consistently over selling and convergence is green, it indicates a strong and sustained bullish trend. This can lead to a potential upward move, with buyers predominantly in control.
No convergence can mean it's time to be cautious. This could be a sign of market indecision, and it's often wise to wait for confirmation. This can lead to sideways market conditions or inverse of the current dominant flow.
🟪 Settings
This indicator does not require any user inputs as it automatically calculates the necessary data based on the ticker's price and volume information. It’s ready to use immediately upon application to any chart.
🟪 Limitations
This indicator is only works during the New York session of trading. It's flow values will not function outside of that trading session.
🟪 Conclusion

Market Waves [BigBeluga]MARKET WAVES
Market Waves The Market Waves [ BigBeluga ] is an all in one toolkit focusing on trends, accumulations and identifying market structures right on your chart. It is lightweight and powerful in its approaches, taking unique mathematical approaches to classical tools.
⬤ Signals
The Beluga Signals combine tested powerful ideas into a single tool. They are designed to follow trends and reduce noise in the market using low pass filtering methods. There are two types of signals founds in this toolkit; normal and power signals. Power signals are signals with a + in them indicating that the signal may be more likely to play out.
These are great when used in confluence with other trend following tools to filter them for even greater performance. Naturally traders will want to use these with confluence to confirm the trend identification.
The signals come with take profits built in. Ticks are placed on the chart indicating a potential areas to be taking profit. Using these as exits can be powerful especially when using confluence. Max Profit labels are also produced suggesting it really is the ideal time to be exiting the market before a reversal comes.
By leveraging unique low lag methods and filtering approaches, these signals offer a unique edge when compared to classical TSL such as a SuperTrend or PSAR.
⬤ Smooth Trend
The Smooth Trend (shown here with green and red shadows) also focuses on low lag noise filtering. This unique system is perfect when used for entries or as a filter. Users are able to adjust how fast or slow the trend is identified.
In the example above, we see a sell signal during the time the smooth trend is green. Therefore using confluence we can filter out the signal and proceed to take our power buy signal.
Percentages are also provided at the start of the trend. These indicate the probability this really is a new trend. In the image above we again see the trends are both labelled as 100% and the system is fully confident what we were seeing was indeed a trend reversal.
Although it may appear as a classical trend following tool, again it's uniqueness lies in its ability to locate market bottoms and respond to trends.
⬤ The Trend Accumulations
This feature focuses on elegant trend and range identification making trader's lives easier. By not cluttering the chart this system allows traders to see an asset's behavior without overlays.
Uptrends, downtrends and ranges are identified with uptrends showing with a green base line, downtrends with a red one and ranges/accumulations in blue. As shown in the image above; this is a powerful system to avoid trading ranges/chop in the market. We see a blue accumulation zone, this means the market is best to avoid. We then transition to a faint green suggesting the market is starting to move upwards.
Leveraging range detection techniques, this gives responsive market structure identification at a glance.
⬤ Voltix Bands
The Voltix Bands are a type of volatility-based band used to gauge market volatility and identify potential trading opportunities. These bands consist of two components: an upper band and a lower band. The distance between the bands fluctuates based on market volatility. When the market is highly volatile, the bands widen, and when volatility is low, the bands contract. They are unique as they uniquely apply distributions and weight volatility accordingly.
How to Use Voltix Bands:
When the price moves outside the Voltix Bands, it often signals a potential breakout. A close above the upper band may indicate the start of an upward trend, while a close below the lower band might signal the beginning of a downward trend.
Traders often use these breakout signals to enter trades in the direction of the breakout.
Detecting Overbought and Oversold Conditions:
When the price touches or moves beyond the upper Voltix Band, it can suggest that the market is overbought, indicating a potential reversal or pullback.
Conversely, when the price touches or drops below the lower Voltix Band, it may indicate an oversold condition, suggesting a possible price increase or trend reversal.
Volatility Contraction and Expansion:
Tightening Voltix Bands (when the bands contract) often precedes a significant price movement. This phenomenon is known as the "squeeze." When the bands tighten, it indicates a period of low volatility, and traders often anticipate an imminent breakout in either direction.
Widening Voltix Bands (when the bands expand) signal increasing volatility. Traders can use this as a cue to either ride the trend or be cautious of potential reversals.
Trend Following:
In trending markets, the price often stays close to the upper or lower band for extended periods. Traders can use this characteristic to follow the trend, staying long when the price is near the upper band and short when it is near the lower band. The bands also provide color coding and are green during an uptrend and purple during a downtrend.
⬤ Candle Coloring
1. Volume-Based Candle Coloring
Volume-based candle coloring mode changes the color of each candlestick according to the trading volume associated with that period. This method helps traders quickly identify periods of high or low market activity and understand the strength behind price movements.
How It Works:
High Volume: Candles are colored differently (red bearish, bright blue for bullish) when the trading volume is significantly higher than the average. This indicates strong buying or selling interest.
This mode is useful for identifying potential breakouts or fakeouts. For example, a price breakout accompanied by high volume suggests a strong move, while a breakout on low volume might indicate a lack of conviction, potentially leading to a false breakout.
2. Trend-Based Candle Coloring
Trend-based candle coloring mode changes the color of candlesticks depending on the current market trend, helping traders visually distinguish between bullish and bearish phases and neutral periods.
How It Works:
Bullish Trend: Candles are colored green when the price is in an uptrend.
Bearish Trend: Candles are colored red when the price is in a downtrend.
Usage:
This mode is beneficial for trend-following strategies, allowing traders to quickly assess the overall market direction and align their trades with the prevailing trend.
3. Momentum-Based Candle Coloring
In this momentum-based candle coloring mode, candlesticks are colored yellow for strong bullish momentum and pink for strong bearish momentum. This visual approach highlights the intensity of market movements, helping traders quickly identify prevailing momentum and potential trend shifts.
How It Works:
Strong Bullish Momentum (Yellow Candles):
Candles turn yellow when the market exhibits strong upward momentum. This might be triggered by a proprietary technique that detects when buying pressure is significantly driving prices higher, indicating that the market is experiencing robust bullish activity.
Yellow candles suggest that the price is likely to continue rising, and traders may look to capitalize on this momentum.
Strong Bearish Momentum (Pink Candles):
Candles turn pink when strong downward momentum is detected. The same technique identifies when selling pressure is dominant, pushing prices lower at a significant pace.
Pink candles indicate that bearish forces are strong, with the price likely to keep declining, making it a potential opportunity for short-selling or exiting long positions.
This color scheme is particularly beneficial for traders who prioritize momentum-based strategies. The clear distinction between strong bullish (yellow) and bearish (pink) momentum provides an instant visual cue, enabling quick decision-making.
Entering Trades:
Traders might choose to enter long positions when a series of yellow candles appears, indicating strong bullish momentum.
Alternatively, pink candles may signal an opportune moment to enter short positions, capturing the market's downward momentum.
Exiting Trades:
A shift from pink to yellow candles in a previously bearish trend could indicate a reversal, prompting traders to exit short positions.
The Market Waves toolkit is a powerful collection of unique and powerful tools. Please use DD when trading and always manage risk.
TheRookAlgo ICT DRThe Rook Algo is a powerful indicator that is useful to identify the current state of the market, it give information about the current dealing range created after price takes both sides of the market as ICT teaches. The indicator give buy and sell signals depending of the market sentiment, it works in all timeframes can be used only in one but the real benefits comes when it is used with a Higher timeframe reference.
How it works?
The Algo analyze the current and previous market structure to identify current ranges and dealing ranges, it give information about the market with the table located in the corners. The table will tell if the market is expanding higher or lower, retracing into the range, consolidating, if a move failed. Will tell if we hit discount or premium, if we might be in a turtle soup enviormment and finally If the range is small or big compared to the previous one. All this is helpful to quickly identify current market context and direction. Is important to keep in mind that this works better in trending markets must be avoided during consolidations. The algo will tell information about current range, current dealing range and previous dealing range. Is ideal to take entries when the 3 are in sync.
Once the indicator detect current market state it will plot an arrow right after the current candle close telling the possible
Market sentiment and probable direction. This signals can be tricked during consolidations. But when we are trending they work very good.
The light green arrow is plotted when price hits discount and is in a bullish enviormment and price makes a close above previous candle high. The dark green arrow is plotted when we are bullish and price makes an impulse and break the range.
The light red arrow is plotted when price hits a premium in a bearish enviormment and price makes a close below previous candle low. The dark red arrow is plotted when we are bearish and price makes and impulse breaking the range.
The white arrows are plotted when price makes a break out or change of current market state and this is counter to the current market enviormment meaning if we are bullish and we get a down impulse white arrow will be plotted. Then same if we are bearish and price makes an up impulse will plot a white arrow. This ones are usually traps but can also be a real breakout. It depends of the market context in the higher timeframe.
The Algo have the option to plot current ranges that are the lines with the cross, this lines change color depending of the market sentiment and market structure. Light Green for bullish expansion and light red for bearish expansion. Dark colors appears when the range is closed. The equilibrium price is plotted in gray, it change to black when it detect contraction and to white when detect expansion of the ranges.
ICT dealing ranges are plotted in white lines with the equilibrium point in yellow. This lines only appear while price is respecting the range and is consolidating inside and price is not expanding.
The indicator also draws some label lines to easily identify the current range and dealing range and if you want the previous dealing range. This line also tell you when price make a Break of structure and where is the ideal change or character for the timeframe we are looking for.
Lastly the The Rook have the option to enable colors in the bars this is helpful to quickly identify the market state, when price is aliged with the current market sentiment light green or red colors tell us that price is in a premium or discount. Dark and gray colors means price is already in an impulse. And finally when there is an absent of color means price is change current state similar to the white arrows. By default this colors are disable. You can edit in settings
How to use it?
After understanding how the rook communicates we can use it to follow the market direction, the best way to use it is waiting for the Range and dealing range a to be aligned for increasing probabilities we can wait for the previous dealing range too, one that’s in play we just wait for a premium or discount light green or light red signal to enter targeting first the break of the range and then holding for profits while is expanding until we get an opposite signal. This give us the possibility to hold for really big runs. See the picture below. This can be used in any timeframe so depending of the timeframe those ranges might be different but the key is to be align also with a higher timeframe direction.
Gann + Laplace Smoothed Hybrid Volume Spread AnalysisThe Gann + Laplace Smoothed Hybrid Volume Spread Analysis ( GannLSHVSA ) Strategy/Indicator is an trading tool designed to fuse volume analysis with trend detection, offering traders a view of market dynamics.
This Strategy/Indicator stands apart by integrating the principles of the upgraded Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT), the Laplace Stieltjes Transform and volume spread analysis, enhanced with a layer of Fourier smoothing to distill market noise and highlight trend directions with unprecedented clarity.
The length of EMA and Strategy Entries are modified with the Gann swings .
This smoothing process allows traders to discern the true underlying patterns in volume and price action, stripped of the distractions of short-term fluctuations and noise.
The core functionality of the GannLSHVSA revolves around the innovative combination of volume change analysis, spread determination (calculated from the open and close price difference), and the strategic use of the EMA (default 10) to fine-tune the analysis of spread by incorporating volume changes.
Trend direction is validated through a moving average (MA) of the histogram, which acts analogously to the Volume MA found in traditional volume indicators. This MA serves as a pivotal reference point, enabling traders to confidently engage with the market when the histogram's movement concurs with the trend direction, particularly when it crosses the Trend MA line, signalling optimal entry points.
It returns 0 when MA of the histogram and EMA of the Price Spread are not align.
WHAT IS GannLSHVSA INDICATOR:
The GannLSHVSA plots a positive trend when a positive Volume smoothed Spread and EMA of Volume smoothed price is above 0, and a negative when negative Volume smoothed Spread and EMA of Volume smoothed price is below 0. When this conditions are not met it plots 0.
HOW TO USE THE STRATEGY:
Here you fine-tune the inputs until you find a combination that works well on all Timeframes you will use when creating your Automated Trade Algorithmic Strategy. I suggest 4h, 12h, 1D, 2D, 3D, 4D, 5D, 6D, W and M.
ORIGINALITY & USEFULNESS:
The GannLSHVSA Strategy is unique because it applies upgraded DFT, the Laplace Stieltjes Transform for data smoothing, effectively filtering out the minor fluctuations and leaving traders with a clear picture of the market's true movements. The DFT's ability to break down market signals into constituent frequencies offers a granular view of market dynamics, highlighting the amplitude and phase of each frequency component. This, combined with the strategic application of Ehler's Universal Oscillator principles via a histogram, furnishes traders with a nuanced understanding of market volatility and noise levels, thereby facilitating more informed trading decisions. The Gann swing strategy is developed by meomeo105, this Gann high and low algorithm forms the basis of the EMA modification.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
My detailed description of the indicator and use cases which I find very valuable.
What is the meaning of price spread?
In finance, a spread refers to the difference between two prices, rates, or yields. One of the most common types is the bid-ask spread, which refers to the gap between the bid (from buyers) and the ask (from sellers) prices of a security or asset.
We are going to use Open-Close spread.
What is Volume spread analysis?
Volume spread analysis (VSA) is a method of technical analysis that compares the volume per candle, range spread, and closing price to determine price direction.
What does this mean?
We need to have a positive Volume Price Spread and a positive Moving average of Volume price spread for a positive trend. OR via versa a negative Volume Price Spread and a negative Moving average of Volume price spread for a negative trend.
What if we have a positive Volume Price Spread and a negative Moving average of Volume Price Spread?
It results in a neutral, not trending price action.
Thus the Indicator/Strategy returns 0 and Closes all long and short positions.
I suggest using "Close all" input False when fine-tuning Inputs for 1 TimeFrame. When you export data to Excel/Numbers/GSheets I suggest using "Close all" input as True, except for the lowest TimeFrame. I suggest using 100% equity as your default quantity for fine-tune purposes. I have to mention that 100% equity may lead to unrealistic backtesting results. Be avare. When backtesting for trading purposes use Contracts or USDT.

Relative Strength according to Oster (RSO)Overview:
Relative Strength according to Oster (RSO) is an innovative tool that redefines how traders assess an asset's market strength. Moving beyond traditional indicators, RSO offers a sophisticated and highly responsive measure of an asset's potential to continue performing well. By integrating groundbreaking methodologies, RSO equips traders with unparalleled insights into market dynamics, making it an essential tool for anyone looking to stay ahead in today's fast-paced trading environment.
Understanding RSL (Relative Strength according to Levy):
At its core, Relative Strength according to Levy (RSL) is a powerful concept rooted in the idea that an asset currently exhibiting strength is more likely to maintain or even enhance that strength in the future. RSL calculates this by comparing an asset's current price to its moving average, providing a clear picture of its relative performance over time. The further its value is above 1, the higher the market momentum and vice versa. This relationship to the moving average is crucial, as it indicates not just where the asset stands today but also its trajectory in the context of historical performance. The ability to identify assets that consistently outperform is a game-changer for traders, and RSL has long been a cornerstone in this pursuit.
RSO vs. Traditional RSL: A Leap Forward
The RSO takes the traditional RSL concept and propels it into new territory with its innovative correlation-based approach. This is where RSO truly shines, offering a unique and sophisticated analysis that goes far beyond the basics.
Why RSO is Revolutionary:
Correlation Adjustment: The RSO doesn’t just measure an asset’s strength in isolation. Instead, it adjusts its readings based on how closely the asset's price movements correlate with a chosen benchmark. This groundbreaking feature ensures that the RSO is not just reactive to past performance but also predictive of how the asset might behave relative to the broader market, adding a layer of precision that is unparalleled in traditional strength indicators.
Superior Strength Option: With the RSO, traders have the option to include superior strength factors, adding another dimension of insight. This feature allows for more stable and reliable long-term signals. On the flip side, those who prefer a more dynamic trading style can opt to exclude this factor for more frequent, shorter-term signals. This level of customization is rare and sets the RSO apart as a truly adaptable tool.
Enhanced Market Insights: RSO’s correlation-based approach doesn’t just show how strong an asset is—it reveals how that strength is likely to develop in relation to the benchmark's underlying trends. This isn’t merely about comparing performance; it’s about understanding the asset’s potential trajectory in a much broader market context. Such insight is invaluable for making informed, strategic trading decisions.
Practical Application:
The RSO isn’t just innovative in theory; it’s designed for practical, real-world trading. Traders can set customized alerts based on RSO’s readings, ensuring they’re always aware of key buy or sell signals as they occur. The flexibility to include or exclude superior strength factors means that RSO can be tailored to fit any trading style, whether focused on long-term investments or short-term opportunities.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, the Relative Strength according to Oster (RSO) is more than just an indicator; it’s a breakthrough in market analysis. By integrating correlation adjustments and offering unparalleled customization options, RSO provides traders with insights that are both deeper and more actionable than ever before.

TP RSITP RSI - Integrated Trend, Momentum, and Volatility Analyzer
The TP RSI indicator is an innovative 3-in-1 technical analysis tool that combines RSI, Bollinger Bands, and an EMA ribbon to provide traders with a comprehensive view of trend, momentum, and volatility in a single, easy-to-interpret visual display.
Why This Combination? This mashup addresses three critical aspects of market analysis simultaneously:
Trend identification and strength (EMA ribbon)
Momentum measurement (RSI)
Volatility assessment (Bollinger Bands)
By integrating these components, traders can make more informed decisions based on multiple factors without switching between different indicators.
How Components Work Together:
1. EMA Ribbon (Trend):
10 EMAs form 5 color-coded bands
Blue: Uptrend, Red: Downtrend
Provides a nuanced view of trend strength and potential reversals
2. RSI (Momentum):
Color-coded for quick interpretation
Blue: Upward momentum, Red: Downward momentum, White: Neutral
Position relative to the ribbon offers additional insight
3. Bollinger Bands (Volatility):
Applied to RSI for dynamic overbought/oversold levels
Narrow bands indicate low volatility, suggesting potential breakouts
Unique Aspects and Originality:
Synergistic visual cues: Color coordination between ribbon and RSI
Multi-factor confirmation: Requires alignment of trend, momentum, and volatility for strong signals
Volatility-adjusted momentum: RSI interpreted within the context of Bollinger Bands
How these components work together:
Buy Signal: Blue ribbon with blue RSI outside the ribbon.
Sell Signal: Red ribbon with red RSI outside the ribbon.
Neutral: White RSI or RSI inside the ribbon (not recommended for trading)
Increasing Momentum: RSI crossing above upper Bollinger Band (upward) or below lower Band (downward).
Trend Strength: RSI rejection by the ribbon, while all bands are colored along with the trend direction, identifies a strong trend.
Trend LinesThis script, titled "Trend Lines," is designed to detect and plot significant trend lines on a TradingView chart, based on pivot points. It highlights both uptrend and downtrend lines using different colors and allows customization of line styles, including color and thickness. Here's a breakdown of how the script works:
Inputs
Left Bars (lb) and Right Bars (rb): These inputs determine the number of bars to the left and right of a pivot point used to identify significant highs and lows.
Show Pivot Points: A boolean input to display markers at detected pivot points on the chart.
Show Old Line as Dashed: A boolean input to display older trend lines as dashed for visual distinction.
Uptrend Line Color (ucolor) and Downtrend Line Color (dcolor): Color inputs to customize the appearance of uptrend and downtrend lines.
Uptrend Line Thickness (uthickness) and Downtrend Line Thickness (dthickness): Inputs to adjust the thickness of the trend lines.
Calculations
Pivot Highs and Lows: The script calculates potential pivot highs and lows by looking at lb bars to the left and rb bars to the right. If a bar's high is the highest (or low is the lowest) within this window, it is considered a pivot point.
Trend Lines: The script connects the most recent and previous pivot highs to form downtrend lines, and the most recent and previous pivot lows to form uptrend lines. These lines are drawn with the specified color and thickness.
Angles: The angle of each trend line is calculated to determine whether the trend is strengthening or weakening. If the trend changes significantly, the line's extension is adjusted accordingly.
Plotting
Pivot Point Markers: If Show Pivot Points is enabled, markers labeled "H" for highs and "L" for lows are plotted at the pivot points.
Trend Lines: The script draws lines between pivot points, coloring them according to the trend direction (uptrend or downtrend). If Show Old Line as Dashed is enabled, the script sets older lines to a dashed style to indicate they are no longer the most recent trend lines.
This script is useful for traders who want to visually identify key support and resistance levels based on historical price action, helping them to make more informed trading decisions. The customization options allow traders to tailor the appearance of the trend lines to suit their personal preferences or charting style.
ICSM (Impulse-Correction & SCOB Mapper) [WinWorld]DESCRIPTION
ICSM (Impulse-Correction SCOB Mapper) is the indicator that analyzes the price movement and identifies valid impulses, corrections and SCOBs. It is a powerful tool that can be used with any type of technical analysis because it's flexible, informative, easy to use and it does substantially improve trader's awareness of the most liquid zones of interest.
SETTINGS
General | Visuals
Colour theme — defines the colour theme of the ICSM.
SCOB | Visuals
Show SCOB — enables/disables SCOB;
Mark SCOB with — represents a list of style options for SCOB representation;
SCOB colour — defines the colour of the SCOB;
ICM | Visuals
Show ICM lines — enables/disables ICM (Impulse-Correction Mapper) lines;
Show IC trend — enables/disables visualization of impulse-correction trend via coloured divider at the bottom of the chart;
Line colour — defines the colour of the ICM lines;

Alerts
ICM — enables/disables alert for breaking ICM lines;
SCOB — enables/disables alert for SCOB creation;
ICM+SCOB — enables/disables alert for SCOB occurance at the end of the single impulse/correction, which grabs ICM line's liquidity.
ICM+SCOB (same candle) — enables/disables alert for SCOB occurance at the candle, which grabs ICM line's liquidity.
IMPORTANT CONCEPTS
In order to fully understand what ICSM can do, let's do a quick overview of the most important concepts that this indicator is built on.
By ICM we mean the liquidity grabbing of Impulse-Correction Mapper's lines (ICM lines; represented as dashed horizontal lines on the chart ). Saying shortly, liquidity grabs of ICM lines posses great opportunities for finding great entries.
SCOB (Single Candle Order Block) builds up by 3 simple rules:
Previous candle's liquidity is grabbed;
Current candle closes inside previous candle;
Imbalance occurs on the next candle.
SCOB is a quite useful zone of interest, from which the price usually reverses. You can also use SCOB as POI* on HTF** or as entry zone on LTF***.
* POI — Point Of Interest
* HTF — Higher TimeFrame
* LTF — Lower TimeFrame
"ICM+SCOB" is a short name that we use for event, at which price first grabs the liquidity from ICM line and then creates a SCOB at the same impulse/correction movement ( on the same ICM line, that does the liquidity grab ). Usually the SCOB that occurs after this event represents a highly liquid zone of interest , which should be considered when choosing entry level.
"ICM+SCOB (same candle)" is basically the same as "ICM+SCOB" event but with one major difference — the candle, which grabs the liquidity of ICM line, is also the candle at which the SCOB occurs, making such SCOB an even better zone of interest than a regular SCOB from ICM+SCOB event.
BIGGEST ADVANTAGES
ICSM precisely identifies impulses and corrections. Huge load of indicators on the TradingView does only show the simplest zones of interests, while ICSM uses our team's signature algorithms to precisely identify true impulses and corrections in the market, allowing traders to see both local and global price direction better and at the same time providing traders with the most liquid zones of interest;
ICSM shows points of interest and liquidity. The indicator identifies the nearest points of interest and zones, where the liquidity is concentrated, allowing you to find great entry and exit points for your trades;
ICSM has SCOB (Single Candle Order Block) detection function. ICM is packed with the extremely useful in SMC trading SCOB detetction feature, which allows you find even more solid points of interest;
ICSM has super minimalistic design, which contains only the things you really need. Your chart will not be overloaded with unnecessary information. You will only see clear points of interest, liquidity and price movement.
WHY SHOULD YOU USE IT?
As was said above, ICSM allows you to see the most profitable points and zones of interest, which professional SMC traders consider as one of the best in the market, because they are historically the areas from which the price bounces the most, allowing the smartest traders to get quick an clean profits with low drawdown.
In the ICSM indicator these zones are SCOB and ICM line liquidity grabs. By using these zones of interest to find entry points, you increase the chance to open a trade at the most lucrative price and reduce trading risks.
Considering what was said above, this indicator can help traders reduce drawdown risks and increase potential profits simply by showing the most liquid zones of interest, which are perfect for opening a trading position.
Here are some of the examples of how you leverage ICSM in your trading process:
Example of the short trade:
Price shows overall short trend. Trend liquidity is being formed.
Price grabs liduiqity from three ICM lines in a row and then creates a long SCOB at the end of 3rd liquidity grab.
SCOB, which occured at the end of ICM line, represents much stronger zone of interest than a regular SCOB. In this case it represents a zone, which we will use to find an entry.
The entry for the trade will be SCOB candle's low, stop-loss target should be put above SCOB candle's high. Our take-profit target is trend liquidity. See the screenshot above for better understanding.
▼ Now let's see the long trade example. ▼
Example of the long trade:
Price creates trend liquidity by showing equal highs ( EQH ).
Price grabs liduiqity from four ICM lines in a row and then creates a long SCOB at the end of 4th liquidity grab.
Again: SCOB, which occured at the end of ICM line, represents much stronger zone of interest than a regular SCOB. In this case it represents a zone, which we will use to find an entry.
The entry for the trade will be SCOB candle's high, stop-loss target should be put below SCOB candle's low. Our take-profit target is EQH. See the screenshot above for better understanding.
ALERTS
ICSM provides simple and easy alert customization, allwoing to choose only the alerts you want to receive. You can choose from the following alert options:
ICM — impulse or correction liquidity grab;
SCOB — SCOB is formed, wether or not the liquidity is grabbed from the impulse or correction;
SCOB+ICM — SCOB is formed after grabbing the liquidity of the ICM line;
SCOB+ICM (same candle) — SCOB is formed in the liquidity area of the impulse or correction.
HOW CAN I GET THE MOST OUT OF IT?
ICSM displays only the first liquidity of an impulse or correction, which matches the IDM (Inducement) in the Advanced SMC strategy . This strategy is completely covered in the World Class SMC indicator and is available for free for PDF in three parts.
You can also ICSM with any other strategy, because ICSM is a very flexible indicator and will help anyone improve their trading by making one aware of the high-quality liquidity on the chart.
Let's see how you can leverage ICSM with our World Class SMC indicator and other different strategies:
Example of the long & short trades with World Class SMC.
Long (1-3):
Price reached previous OB-EXT . This is the first sign for the potential price reversal;
ICM+SCOB happened after price reached OB-EXT;
After that, you can need to look for an entry on LTF. If you don't know how to do it, you can refer to our education materials.
Short (4-6):
Price reached OB-IDM , which is also a great sign for a potential upcoming price reversal;
ICM+SCOB occured after liquidity grab of the previous SCOB. This fact does strengthen the probability of the potential upcoming price reversal;
Now you need to switch to LTF and find an entry there.
Example of the short trade with simple Fibonacci retracement strategy.
Price grabs the liquidity of the ICM lines three times in a row, forming SCOB after the 3rd grab;
Price performs correctional move down without testing the SCOB, leaving no entry opportunity by our initial strategy, so we can add another strategy — Fibonacci retracement from 0.618 level — to our analysis in order to find an entry ;
We use Fibonacci grid with our initial strategy to find the best POI, that will align with the trend direction and will eventually become our entry point.
SUMMARY
ICSM is a unique indicator that indentifies zones and points of interests with high-quiality liquidity and can be both a stand-alone tool and can be integrated into any other strategy to increase the efficiency of analysis, accuracy of trading entries and reduce trading risks.
If you want to learn the SMC strategies that our team uses in our products, you can refer to our educational materials.
We hope that you will find a great use of ICSM and it will help you improve your perfomance as a trader. Best of luck, traders!

MTF-Colored EMA Difference and Stochastic indicatorThis indicator combines two popular technical analysis tools: the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and the Stochastic Oscillator, with the added flexibility of analyzing them across multiple time frames. It visually represents the difference between two EMAs and the crossover signals from the Stochastic Oscillator, providing a comprehensive view of the market conditions.
Components:
EMA Difference Histogram :
EMA Calculation : The indicator calculates two EMAs (EMA1 and EMA2) for the selected time frame.
EMA Difference : The difference between EMA1 and EMA2 is plotted as a 4 coloured histogram.
Stochastic Oscillato r:
Calculation : The %K and %D lines of the Stochastic Oscillator are calculated for the selected time frame.
Additional Confirmation via Colors :
Green: %K is above %D, indicating a bullish signal.
Red: %K is below %D, indicating a bearish signal.
Entry and Exit Strategies
Entry Strategy :
Bullish Entry :
Condition 1: The histogram is Dark green (indicating a strong upward trend).
Condition 2: The Stochastic colour is green (%K is above %D).
Bearish Entry :
Condition 1: The histogram is Dark Red (indicating a strong downward trend).
Condition 2: The Stochastic colour is red (%K is below %D).
Exit Strategy:
Bullish Exit:
Condition: The Stochastic colour turns red (%K crosses below %D).
Bearish Exit:
Condition: The Stochastic colour turns green (%K crosses above %D).
Additional Considerations:
Time Frame Selection : The chosen time frame for both the EMA and Stochastic calculations should align with the trader’s strategy (e.g., daily for swing trading, hourly for intraday trading).
Risk Management : Implement stop-loss orders to manage risk effectively. The stop-loss can be placed below the recent swing low for long positions and above the recent swing high for short positions.
Confirmation : Consider using this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to confirm signals and reduce the likelihood of false entries and exits.
No-Lag MA Crossover ScalperThe No Lag Crossover Scalper aims to capitalize on short-term trends using a combination of Hull Moving Average (HMA) for trend detection and multiple indicators for generating buy and sell signals. Here’s an overview of its components and approach:
1. Trend Detection with Hull Moving Averages (HMA) :
- Dual Hull MA Setup : Uses two Hull Moving Averages (HMA) to detect crossovers and crossunders, which are signals of short-term trend changes.
- No Lag Nature : HMAs are chosen for their ability to reduce lag compared to traditional moving averages, providing quicker responses to price movements.
2. Indicators for Signal Generation :
- Relative Strength Index (RSI) : Detects overbought and oversold conditions, generating signals when price movements diverge from RSI readings.
- Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) : Provides signals based on the convergence and divergence of two moving averages, indicating potential trend reversals.
- Stochastic Oscillator (Stoch) : Identifies momentum shifts by comparing the current closing price to its range over a specific period.
- On-Balance Volume (OBV) : Measures buying and selling pressure based on volume flow, signaling potential changes in price direction.
- RSI Divergence : Looks for discrepancies between price action and RSI values, suggesting weakening trends and possible reversals.
3. Signal Generation Logic :
- Buy Signals : Generated when both HMAs cross over, supported by bullish indications from RSI, MACD, Stoch, OBV, or RSI divergence. At least 2 indicators must be true to generate a signal.
- Sell Signals : Triggered when HMAs cross under, complemented by bearish signals from the mentioned indicators.
4. Implementation and Optimization :
- Parameter Optimization : Fine-tuning of indicator periods and sensitivity settings to balance signal accuracy and responsiveness.
- Confirmation Mechanisms : Use of multiple indicators to confirm signals, reducing false positives and enhancing reliability.
Overall, the No Lag Crossover Scalper combines the speed of Hull Moving Averages with the reliability of multiple indicators to identify short-term trends effectively. By focusing on no lag indicators and confirming signals with diverse technical tools, it aims to capitalize on rapid market movements while managing risk through disciplined execution.

KillZones + ACD Fisher [TradingFinder] Sessions + Reversal Level🔵 Introduction
🟣 ACD Method
"The Logical Trader" opens with a thorough exploration of the ACD Methodology, which focuses on pinpointing particular price levels associated with the opening range.
This approach enables traders to establish reference points for their trades, using "A" and "C" points as entry markers. Additionally, the book covers the concept of the "Pivot Range" and how integrating it with the ACD method can help maximize position size while minimizing risk.
🟣 Session
The forex market is operational 24 hours a day, five days a week, closing only on Saturdays and Sundays. Typically, traders prefer to concentrate on one specific forex trading session rather than attempting to trade around the clock.
Trading sessions are defined time periods when a particular financial market is active, allowing for the execution of trades.
The most crucial trading sessions within the 24-hour cycle are the Asia, London, and New York sessions, as these are when substantial money flows and liquidity enter the market.
🟣 Kill Zone
Traders in financial markets earn profits by capitalizing on the difference between their buy/sell prices and the prevailing market prices.
Traders vary in their trading timelines.Some traders engage in daily or even hourly trading, necessitating activity during periods with optimal trading volumes and notable price movements.
Kill zones refer to parts of a session characterized by higher trading volumes and increased price volatility compared to the rest of the session.
🔵 How to Use
🟣 Session Times
The "Asia Session" comprises two parts: "Sydney" and "Tokyo." This session begins at 23:00 and ends at 06:00 UTC. The "Asia KillZone" starts at 23:00 and ends at 03:55 UTC.
The "London Session" includes "Frankfurt" and "London," starting at 07:00 and ending at 14:25 UTC. The "London KillZone" runs from 07:00 to 09:55 UTC.
The "New York" session starts at 14:30 and ends at 19:25 UTC, with the "New York am KillZone" beginning at 14:30 and ending at 22:55 UTC.
🟣 ACD Methodology
The ACD strategy is versatile, applicable to various markets such as stocks, commodities, and forex, providing clear buy and sell signals to set price targets and stop losses.
This strategy operates on the premise that the opening range of trades holds statistical significance daily, suggesting that initial market movements impact the market's behavior throughout the day.
Known as a breakout strategy, the ACD method thrives in volatile or strongly trending markets like crude oil and stocks.
Some key rules for employing the ACD strategy include :
Utilize points A and C as critical reference points, continually monitoring these during trades as they act as entry and exit markers.
Analyze daily and multi-day pivot ranges to understand market trends. Prices above the pivots indicate an upward trend, while prices below signal a downward trend.
In forex trading, the ACD strategy can be implemented using the ACD indicator, a technical tool that gauges the market's supply and demand balance. By evaluating trading volume and price, this indicator assists traders in identifying trend strength and optimal entry and exit points.
To effectively use the ACD indicator, consider the following :
Identifying robust trends: The ACD indicator can help pinpoint strong, consistent market trends.
Determining entry and exit points: ACD generates buy and sell signals to optimize trade timing.
Bullish Setup :
When the "A up" line is breached, it’s wise to wait briefly to confirm it’s not a "Fake Breakout" and that the price stabilizes above this line.
Upon entering the trade, the most effective stop loss is positioned below the "A down" line. It's advisable to backtest this to ensure the best outcomes. The recommended reward-to-risk ratio for this strategy is 1, which should also be verified through backtesting.
Bearish Setup :
When the "A down" line is breached, it’s prudent to wait briefly to ensure it’s not a "Fake Breakout" and that the price stabilizes below this line.
Upon entering the trade, the most effective stop loss is positioned above the "A up" line. Backtesting is recommended to confirm the best results. The recommended reward-to-risk ratio for this strategy is 1, which should also be validated through backtesting.
Advantages of Combining Kill Zone and ACD Method in Market Analysis :
Precise Trade Timing : Integrating the Kill Zone strategy with the ACD Method enhances precision in trade entries and exits. The ACD Method identifies key points for trading, while the Kill Zone focuses on high-activity periods, together ensuring optimal timing for trades.
Better Trend Identification : The ACD Method’s pivot ranges help spot market trends, and when combined with the Kill Zone’s emphasis on periods of significant price movement, traders can more effectively identify and follow strong market trends.
Maximized Profits and Minimized Risks : The ACD Method's structured approach to setting price targets and stop losses, coupled with the Kill Zone's high-volume trading periods, helps maximize profit potential while reducing risk.
Robust Risk Management : Combining these methods provides a comprehensive risk management strategy, strategically placing stop losses and protecting capital during volatile periods.
Versatility Across Markets : Both methods are applicable to various markets, including stocks, commodities, and forex, offering flexibility and adaptability in different trading environments.
Enhanced Confidence : Using the combined insights of the Kill Zone and ACD Method, traders gain confidence in their decision-making process, reducing emotional trading and improving consistency.
By merging the Kill Zone’s focus on trading volumes and the ACD Method’s structured breakout strategy, traders benefit from a synergistic approach that enhances precision, trend identification, and risk management across multiple markets.
ICT KillZones + Pivot Points [TradingFinder] Support/Resistance 🟣 Introduction
Pivot Points are critical levels on a price chart where trading activity is notably high. These points are derived from the prior day's price data and serve as key reference markers for traders' decision-making processes.
Types of Pivot Points :
Floor
Woodie
Camarilla
Fibonacci
🔵 Floor Pivot Points
Widely utilized in technical analysis, floor pivot points are essential in identifying support and resistance levels. The central pivot point (PP) acts as the primary level, suggesting the trend's likely direction.
The additional resistance levels (R1, R2, R3) and support levels (S1, S2, S3) offer further insight into potential trend reversals or continuations.
🔵 Camarilla Pivot Points
Featuring eight distinct levels, Camarilla pivot points closely correspond with support and resistance, making them highly effective for setting stop-loss orders and profit targets.
🔵 Woodie Pivot Points
Similar to floor pivot points, Woodie pivot points differ by placing greater emphasis on the closing price, often resulting in different pivot levels compared to the floor method.
🔵 Fibonacci Pivot Points
Fibonacci pivot points combine the standard floor pivot points with Fibonacci retracement levels applied to the previous trading period's range. Common retracement levels used are 38.2%, 61.8%, and 100%.
🟣 Sessions
Financial markets are divided into specific time segments, known as sessions, each with unique characteristics and activity levels. These sessions are active at different times throughout the day.
The primary sessions in financial markets include :
Asian Session
European Session
New York Session
The timing of these major sessions in UTC is as follows :
Asian Session: 23:00 to 06:00
European Session: 07:00 to 14:25
New York Session: 14:30 to 22:55
🟣 Kill Zones
Kill zones are periods within a session marked by heightened trading activity. During these times, trading volume surges and price movements become more pronounced.
The timing of the major kill zones in UTC is :
Asian Kill Zone: 23:00 to 03:55
European Kill Zone: 07:00 to 09:55
New York Kill Zone: 14:30 to 16:55
Combining kill zones and pivot points in financial market analysis provides several advantages :

Enhanced Trend Identification and Confirmation : Confirms trends using both pivot levels and high-activity periods, ensuring stronger trend validation.
In essence, this integrated approach enhances decision-making, optimizes trading performance, and improves risk management.
🟣 How to Use
🔵 Two Approaches to Trading Pivot Points
There are two main strategies for trading pivot points: utilizing "pivot point breakouts" and "price reversals."
🔵 Pivot Point Breakout
When the price breaks through pivot lines, it signals a shift in market sentiment to the trader. In the case of an upward breakout, where the price crosses these pivot lines, a trader might enter a long position, placing their stop-loss just below the pivot point (P).
Conversely, if the price breaks downward, a short position can be initiated below the pivot point. When using the pivot point breakout strategy, the first and second support levels can serve as profit targets in an upward trend. In a downward trend, these roles are filled by the first and second resistance levels.
🔵 Price Reversal
An alternative method involves waiting for the price to reverse at the support and resistance levels. To implement this strategy, traders should take positions opposite to the prevailing trend as the price rebounds from the pivot point.
While this tool is commonly used in higher time frames, it tends to produce better results in shorter time frames, such as 1-hour, 30-minute, and 15-minute intervals.
Three Strategies for Trading the Kill Zone
There are three principal strategies for trading within the kill zone :
Kill Zone Hunt
Breakout and Pullback to Kill Zone
Trading in the Trend of the Kill Zone
🔵 Kill Zone Hunt
This strategy involves waiting until the kill zone concludes and its high and low lines are established. If the price reaches one of these lines within the same session and is strongly rejected, a trade can be executed.
🔵 Breakout and Pullback to Kill Zone
In this approach, once the kill zone ends and its high and low lines stabilize, a trade can be made if the price breaks one of these lines decisively within the same session and then pulls back to that level.
🔵 Trading in the Trend of the Kill Zone
Kill zones are characterized by high trading volumes and strong trends. Therefore, trades can be placed in the direction of the prevailing trend. For instance, if an upward trend dominates this area, a buy trade can be entered when the price reaches a demand order block.
Pivot Points Level [TradingFinder] 4 Methods + Reversal lines🔵 Introduction
"Pivot Points" are places on the price chart where buyers and sellers are most active. Pivot points are calculated based on the previous day's price data and serve as reference points for traders to make decisions.
Types of Pivot Points :
Floor
Woodie
Camarilla
Fibonacci
🟣 Floor Pivot Points
Floor pivot points are widely used in technical analysis. The central pivot point (PP) serves as the main level of support or resistance, indicating the potential direction of the trend.
The first to third levels of resistance (R1, R2, R3) and support (S1, S2, S3) provide additional signals for potential trend reversals or continuations.
Floor Pivot Points Formula :
Pivot Point (PP): (H + L + C) / 3
First Resistance (R1): (2 * P) - L
Second Resistance (R2): P + H - L
Third Resistance (R3): H + 2 * (P - L)
First Support (S1): (2 * P) - H
Second Support (S2): P - H + L
Third Support (S3): L - 2 * (H - P)
🟣 Camarilla Pivot Points
Camarilla pivot points include eight levels that closely align with support and resistance. These points are particularly useful for setting stop-loss and profit targets.
Camarilla Pivot Points Formula :
Fourth Resistance (R4): (H - L) * 1.1 / 2 + C
Third Resistance (R3): (H - L) * 1.1 / 4 + C
Second Resistance (R2): (H - L) * 1.1 / 6 + C
First Resistance (R1): (H - L) * 1.1 / 12 + C
First Support (S1): C - (H - L) * 1.1 / 12
Second Support (S2): C - (H - L) * 1.1 / 6
Third Support (S3): C - (H - L) * 1.1 / 4
Fourth Support (S4): C - (H - L) * 1.1 / 2
🟣 Woodie Pivot Points
Woodie pivot points are similar to floor pivot points but place more emphasis on the closing price. This method often results in different pivot levels than the floor method.
Woodie Pivot Points Formula :
Pivot Point (PP): (H + L + 2 * C) / 4
First Resistance (R1): (2 * P) - L
Second Resistance (R2): P + H - L
First Support (S1): (2 * P) - H
Second Support (S2): P - H + L
🟣 Fibonacci Pivot Points
Fibonacci pivot points use the standard floor pivot points and then apply Fibonacci retracement levels to the range of the previous trading period. The common retracement levels used are 38.2%, 61.8%, and 100%.
Fibonacci Pivot Points Formula :
Pivot Point (PP): (H + L + C) / 3
Third Resistance (R3): PP + ((H - L) * 1.000)
Second Resistance (R2): PP + ((H - L) * 0.618)
First Resistance (R1): PP + ((H - L) * 0.382)
First Support (S1): PP - ((H - L) * 0.382)
Second Support (S2): PP - ((H - L) * 0.618)
Third Support (S3): PP - ((H - L) * 1.000)
These pivot point calculations help traders identify potential support and resistance levels, enabling more informed decision-making in their trading strategies.
🔵 How to Use
🟣 Two Methods for Trading Pivot Points
There are two primary methods for trading pivot points: trading with "pivot point breakouts" and trading with "price reversals."
🟣 Pivot Point Breakout
A breakout through pivot lines provides a significant signal to the trader, indicating a change in market sentiment. When an upward breakout occurs and the price crosses these lines, a trader can enter a long position and place their stop-loss below the pivot point (P).
Similarly, if a downward breakout happens, a short order can be placed below the pivot point.
When trading with pivot point breakouts, if the upward trend breaks, the first and second support levels can be the trader's profit targets. In a downward trend, the first and second resistance levels will serve this role.
🟣 Price Reversal
Another method for trading pivot points is waiting for the price to reverse from the support and resistance levels. To execute this strategy, one should trade in the opposite direction of the trend as the price reverses from the pivot point.
It's worth noting that although traders use this tool in higher time frames, it yields better results in shorter time frames such as one-hour, 30-minute, and 15-minute intervals.
SuperThreeThe SuperThree is a comprehensive technical indicator designed to identify and visualize market trends and counter-trend momentum in trading. It uses a unique color-coding system to represent different market conditions and potential trading opportunities.
Uptrend (Green Fill) : This is indicated by a green fill. An uptrend is a period where prices are increasing overall, suggesting a strong market. It’s an ideal time for traders to consider entering long positions or exiting short positions.
Downtrend (Red Fill) : This is represented by a red fill. A downtrend is a period where prices are decreasing overall, indicating a bearish market. Traders might consider entering short positions or exiting long positions during this phase.
Sideways Trend (Blue Fill) : This is shown by a blue fill. A sideways trend, also known as a horizontal trend, is when the price is relatively stable and not making significant upward or downward movements. It’s often a period of consolidation before the price moves up or down.
Counter-Trend Momentum (Blue Arrows) : Blue arrows indicate counter-trend momentum, which can be a signal to exit trades or look for potential trend reversals. These are crucial points where the market’s momentum is shifting and may be about to move in the opposite direction.
The SuperThree indicator is an enhancement of the Supertrend indicator, providing additional features and visual cues to help traders make informed decisions. However, like all indicators, it should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis to confirm signals and avoid potential false positives. Always consider your risk tolerance and investment goals before making trading decisions.
Happy trading! 😊
Returns Since PivotReturns Since Pivot (RSP) helps to analyze the trend and seasonality.
This indicator draws 2 separate lines
green - upward movement
red - downward movement
Unlike other trend indicators, it's important that even while uptrend you can still see the power of downward moves that occurred during move up.
Hints and setups:
1) Helps to identify clear up trend from the noisy/mixed one: clearly growing non-interrupted green line, without significant negative red lines.
2) Helps to see potential trend reversal: for example, clear strong green line was interrupted for a brief price drop. Then the uptrend continues, you see clear green line again. But -- it's visible that new green line is way less strong, so the price might have exhausted.
3) While trading on 5 min chart, you can set RSP to 1 hour, or 4 hours to get a clear picture of price action on macro timeframe.
4) Indicator is normalized, so you can compare different coins. For example, after the big drop and rebound, you can use RSP to understand which coin had more powerful rebound, thus potentially will be a best gainer in case if the market continues go up.
