ATR Supertrend [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The ATR Supertrend indicator identifies trend direction and reversal points using volatility-adjusted dynamic support and resistance levels. It combines Average True Range (ATR) volatility measurement with adaptive price bands and EMA smoothing to create trailing stop levels that automatically adjust to market conditions, helping traders and investors identify trend changes, maintain positions during trending markets, and exit when momentum shifts across multiple timeframes and asset classes.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator's core methodology lies in its volatility-adaptive band system, where dynamic support and resistance levels are calculated based on market volatility and price movement:
smoothedSource = ta.ema(source, smoothingPeriod)
atr = ta.rma(ta.tr(true), atrLength) * atrMultiplier
The script uses ATR-based bands that expand and contract with market volatility, ensuring the indicator adapts to different market conditions rather than using fixed price distances:
if trend == 1
supertrend := math.max(supertrend, smoothedSource - atr)
else
supertrend := math.min(supertrend, smoothedSource + atr)
First, it applies optional EMA smoothing to the price source to reduce noise and filter out minor price fluctuations that could trigger premature trend changes, allowing traders to focus on genuine momentum shifts.
Then, the ATR calculation measures market volatility using the Average True Range over the specified lookback period, multiplied by the user-defined factor to set the band distance:
atr = ta.rma(ta.tr(true), atrLength) * atrMultiplier
Next, dynamic trend detection occurs through a state-based system where the indicator tracks whether price is in an uptrend or downtrend, automatically adjusting the Supertrend line position:
if trend == 1
if smoothedSource < supertrend
trend := -1
supertrend := smoothedSource + atr
The Supertrend line can act as a trailing stop that follows price during trends but never moves against the trend direction, i.e., it ratchets upward with price in uptrends and ratchets downward with price in downtrends.
Finally, trend reversal signals are generated when price crosses the Supertrend line, indicating a shift in market momentum:
bullSignal = trend == 1 and trend == -1
bearSignal = trend == -1 and trend == 1
This creates a volatility-adaptive trend-following system that combines dynamic support/resistance levels with momentum confirmation, providing traders with clear directional signals and automatic stop-loss levels that adjust to changing market conditions.
🟢 Signal Interpretation
▶ Bullish Trend (Green): Price trading above Supertrend line with indicator showing bullish color, indicating established upward momentum = Long/Buy opportunities
▶ Bearish Trend (Red): Price trading below Supertrend line with indicator showing bearish color, indicating established downward momentum = Short/Sell opportunities
▶ Supertrend Line as Dynamic Support: In uptrends, the Supertrend line can act as trailing support level that rises with price, never declining = Use as potential stop-loss reference for long positions = Price holding above indicates trend strength
▶ Supertrend Line as Dynamic Resistance: In downtrends, the Supertrend line can act as trailing resistance level that falls with price, never rising = Use as potential stop-loss reference for short positions = Price holding below indicates trend weakness
🟢 Features
▶ Preconfigured Presets: Three optimized parameter sets for different trading approaches. "Default" provides balanced trend detection for swing trading on daily/4-hour charts with moderate sensitivity. "Fast Response" delivers quick trend change detection for intraday trading on 5-minute to 1-hour charts, capturing moves early with increased whipsaw potential. "Smooth Trend" focuses on strong sustained trends for position trading on daily/weekly timeframes, filtering noise to identify only major trend shifts.
▶ Built-in Alerts: Three alert conditions enable comprehensive automated monitoring of trend changes and momentum shifts. "Bullish Trend" triggers when price crosses above the Supertrend line and the trend state changes from bearish to bullish, signaling potential long entry opportunities. "Bearish Trend" activates when price crosses below the Supertrend line and the trend state changes from bullish to bearish, signaling potential short entry or long exit points. "Any Trend Change" provides a combined alert for any trend reversal regardless of direction, allowing traders to be notified of all momentum shifts without setting up separate alerts. These notifications enable traders to capitalize on trend changes and protect positions without continuous chart monitoring.
▶ Color Customization: Five visual themes (Classic, Aqua, Cosmic, Ember, Neon, plus Custom) accommodate different chart backgrounds and visual preferences, ensuring optimal contrast for identifying bullish versus bearish trends across various trading environments. The adjustable cloud fill transparency control (0-100%) allows fine-tuning of the gradient area prominence between the Supertrend line and price, with higher opacity values creating subtle background context while lower values produce bold trend zone emphasis. Optional bar coloring with adjustable transparency (0-100%) extends the trend color directly to the price bars themselves, providing immediate visual reinforcement of current trend direction without requiring reference to the Supertrend line, with transparency controls allowing users to maintain visibility of candlestick patterns while still showing trend context.

Introduction
Markets speak in many dialects.
Sometimes they whisper through volume, sometimes they shout via momentum, at times they breathe through volatility, and occasionally they leave footprints in OBV, PVT, RSI, or TSI.
Most traders respond by stacking indicator after indicator—until the chart resembles a tangled fishing net.
This indicator was built to untangle that net.
Instead of plotting multiple indicators simultaneously, this tool lets you focus on one dimension of market behavior at a time, while preserving structure through a Darvas-style box framework.
The box logic used here is inspired by Darvas-style structural bounding, applied to non-price data such as volume, momentum, and volatility.
🔍 What This Indicator Does
• Combines Volume, OBV, PVT, RSI, Momentum, Volatility, TSI, and Supertrend
• Displays only one selected data stream at a time, reducing noise
• Wraps the selected indicator inside a dynamic Darvas-style box
• Highlights:
o Breakouts & breakdowns
o Compression (energy build-up)
o Structural shifts
o Momentum inflections
o Mean-reversion zones
Think of it as one lens, many filters—you rotate the lens, not clutter the chart.
🧠 How to Use It (Practical Insight)
• Volume / OBV / PVT → Institutional intent & accumulation/distribution
• Momentum / RSI / TSI → Strength, exhaustion, and early reversals
• Volatility → Expansion after contraction (the market’s deep breath)
• Supertrend (as data source) → Trend structure without price bias
The Darvas-style box adds context:
• Narrow boxes = stored energy
• Box expansion = energy release
• Source touching box edges = reaction zones
• Zero-line crossings = regime shifts (where applicable)
• 🎯 Who Is This For?
• Traders who want clarity over clutter
• Discretionary traders who adapt tools to market phase
• System builders seeking structure with flexibility
• Anyone who believes less noise = more signal
📝 Points to Note (Important for Proper Interpretation)
1. Color Coding & Structure
• The upper box line (green) represents the upper structural boundary
• The lower box line (red) represents the lower structural boundary
• The white step-line represents the selected source indicator (e.g., PVT, RSI, Momentum)
2. Pane Scaling & Visibility (Very Important)
• This indicator is designed for use in the bottom pane
• Different sources have very different numerical ranges:
o RSI is bounded between 0 and 100
o PVT, OBV, and Volume can have large absolute values
• Users should manually drag and scale the indicator vertically for optimal visibility
• This is intentional and preserves the raw integrity of each data source rather than force-normalizing it
3. Histogram for Comparative Insight
• A histogram of the selected source is included for quick visual comparison
• Helps identify expansion, contraction, acceleration, and divergence, especially during compression phases inside the box
📌 Recommended Usage (Clarity Over Clutter)
Although multiple sources are available, it is strongly recommended to use one chart with one selected source at a time for best clarity and analytical depth.
For first-time users, PVT (Price Volume Trend) is an ideal starting point.
It blends price movement and volume flow into a single continuous narrative and often reveals institutional participation earlier than price alone. PVT works especially well within the Darvas-style box framework.
Once comfortable, users may switch to RSI, Momentum, Volatility, OBV, or other sources—but always one at a time. This preserves the philosophy of focused observation rather than indicator overload.
🌱 Philosophy Behind the Tool
This indicator rewards patience and observation.Give it space.
It will quietly show when the market is gathering energy—and when it is ready to move.
Markets don’t change indicators. We change how we listen.
This indicator doesn’t predict. It reveals.
Think of it not as a dashboard, but as a rotating telescope—you change lenses, not skies.

INTRODUCTION
The “srd786-Intraday VWAP Price Action Indicator” is a sophisticated Pine Script (version 6) trading tool designed for intraday traders who focus on New York session trading hours. This indicator combines multiple technical analysis concepts including Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP), Average True Range (ATR) for risk management, swing point detection for support/resistance identification, and momentum analysis through RSI. The primary objective is to generate high-probability long and short signals based on price action confluence with trend, momentum, and key structural levels.
1.
VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price): Shows the "fair" average price based on both price and trading volume.
2.
ATR (Average True Range): Measures how much the price typically moves each day.
3.
Trend Analysis: Identifies whether the market is going up, down, or sideways.
4.
Momentum Indicators: Shows how strong the current price movement is.
5.
Support & Resistance: Identifies key price levels where the price might stop or reverse.
6.
Swing Points: Finds significant turning points in the price.
This indicator is specifically optimized for the New York trading session (9:30 AM to 4:00 PM ET), making it particularly suitable for traders who focus on US market hours. It provides a complete trading framework that includes not only signal generation but also precise trade management levels including entry prices, stop-loss orders, and profit targets based on a configurable reward-to-risk ratio.
The philosophy behind this indicator is confluence-based trading. Rather than relying on a single indicator or condition, it requires multiple factors to align before generating a trade signal. This approach filters out lower-probability setups and focuses only on high-quality opportunities where price action, trend direction, momentum, and key technical levels all point in the same direction.
CORE CONCEPT AND METHODOLOGY
Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP)
VWAP is the cornerstone of this indicator's trading methodology. Unlike a simple moving average that treats all price bars equally, VWAP incorporates volume data into its calculation, giving more weight to bars with higher trading volume. This makes VWAP a more accurate representation of the true average price where the most significant trading activity occurred.
The calculation of VWAP is performed using the built-in 'ta.vwap()' function, which computes the cumulative volume-weighted average price from the beginning of the session. For intraday traders, VWAP serves as a critical reference point that indicates whether the current price is trading at a premium (above VWAP) or discount (below VWAP) relative to the session's volume-weighted average.
In this indicator, the VWAP source is configurable through the 'vwapSource' parameter, with the default being HLC3 (High + Low + Close / 3). This source selection allows traders to experiment with different price types such as typical price, weighted close, or even custom sources to suit their trading style and market preferences.
Average True Range (ATR) for Risk Management
The Average True Range, calculated using 'ta.atr()', measures market volatility by decomposing the current range of price movement. ATR does not indicate price direction;
instead, it quantifies the degree of price movement or volatility over a specified period. In this indicator, ATR serves dual purposes: determining the distance for limit orders and calculating stop-loss levels.
The 'atrLength' parameter (default: 14) controls the lookback period for the ATR calculation. A shorter length makes the indicator more responsive to recent volatility, while a longer length provides a smoother average that may be more suitable for less volatile markets. The 'atrMultiplier' (default: 1.5) determines how many ATR units away the stop-loss is placed from the entry price, allowing traders to adjust their risk exposure based on current market conditions.
Swing Detection and Support/Resistance
Swing points represent significant turning points in price action where the market has temporarily exhausted its directional momentum. This indicator uses pivot high and pivot low calculations to identify swing highs and swing lows, which then form the basis for dynamic support and resistance levels.
The 'swingLength' parameter (default: 5) defines how many bars to the left and right of a potential pivot point must be lower (for pivot highs) or higher (for pivot lows) to confirm the swing point. This lookback period helps filter out minor price fluctuations and focuses on more significant structural levels.
Support and resistance levels are stored in arrays ('swingHighArray' and 'SwingLowArray'), with the most recent swing points serving as the primary reference levels. The 'srLookback' parameter (default: 20) controls the overall lookback window and also determines how many
swing points to maintain in each array, ensuring that only relevant historical levels are considered.
Breakout Detection
When a price moves past a major support or resistance level, this is known as a price breakout. This price breakout suggests that there is a possibility of a new trend direction heading forward.Breakout detection eliminates noise, as little price fluctuations or volatility may momentarily drive prices past a threshold without authentic conviction.Detection of breakouts affirms robustness when the price above the threshold by 2%, indicating genuine market interest, and mitigates whipsaws to prevent placing trades based on transient price swings.
The Breakout Tolerance parameter, set by default to 2%, regulates the breakout tolerance for the indicator. A price closure above the current high plus a minor tolerance buffer (usually 2%) indicates a potential continuation of upward movement, classified as a Bullish Breakout. Conversely, when the price closes below the recent low plus a minor tolerance buffer (usually 2%), it suggests that the price may continue to decline, which is classified as a Bearish Breakout Down.
Trend Identification
Trend determination is accomplished through an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) with a configurable length ('trendMaLength', default: 9). The indicator classifies trend into three
states: BULLISH (price above EMA with confirmation from the previous bar), BEARISH (price below EMA with confirmation), and SIDEWAYS (price crossing or near the EMA).
The EMA is chosen over simple moving averages because it responds more quickly to recent price changes while still providing enough smoothing to filter out noise. The confirmation requirement (both current and previous bar must be on the same side of the EMA) reduces false signals during periods of choppy price action.
Momentum Analysis
Momentum is measured using the Relative Strength Index (RSI) with a configurable length ('momentumLength', default: 9). RSI values are categorized into five states to provide nuanced momentum readings: STRONG BULL (RSI above 70), BUILDING (RSI between 55 and 70), NEUTRAL (RSI between 45 and 55), WEAKENING (RSI below 45), and STRONG BEAR (RSI below 30).
This momentum categorization allows traders to distinguish between strong trending conditions (STRONG BULL/BEAR) and transitions (BUILDING/WEAKENING), providing context for trade signals and helping to avoid entering positions during momentum divergences.
CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
VWAP Settings
The 'vwapSource' parameter determines which price value is used in the VWAP calculation. The default value of 'hlc3' (High + Low + Close / 3) provides a balanced representation of each bar's price action. Traders can modify this to use typical price ('high + low + close / 3'), weighted close ('high + low + close + close / 4'), or other price types depending on their analytical preferences.
ATR Settings
The 'atrLength' parameter sets the lookback period for the Average True Range calculation. The default of 14 periods is standard across most trading platforms and timeframes, providing a good balance between responsiveness and smoothness. The 'atrMultiplier' parameter (default: 1.5) scales the ATR value to determine stop-loss distances. A multiplier of 1.5 means the stop-loss is placed 1.5 ATR units away from the entry price, providing enough buffer to accommodate normal volatility while limiting risk.
Trade Settings
The 'rrRatio' parameter (default: 3.0) establishes the reward-to-risk ratio for trade targets. A ratio of 2.0 means the profit target is twice the distance of the stop-loss from the entry price. The 'limitOrderDistance' parameter (default: 0.5) determines how far below (for long trades)
or above (for short trades) the current close the limit order is placed, measured in ATR units. This allows traders to enter positions at better prices while waiting for pullbacks.
Swing Detection Settings
The 'swingLength' parameter (default: 5) controls pivot identification sensitivity. Higher values identify more significant swing points but may miss shorter-term opportunities. The 'showSwings' boolean parameter toggles the visual display of swing high and low points on the chart.
Support & Resistance Settings
The 'srLookback' parameter (default: 20) defines how many bars back to search for swing points and support/resistance levels. The 'breakoutTolerance' parameter (default: 0.02 or 2%) adds a small buffer to breakout detection to account for minor penetration of support/resistance levels due to price spikes or slippage.
Trend & Momentum Settings
The 'trendMaLength' parameter (default: 9) sets the EMA length for trend determination, while 'momentumLength' (default: 9) sets the RSI lookback period. Both should be at least 5 periods for meaningful calculations.
Table Settings
The 'showTable' parameter (default: true) enables the display of two information tables that provide real-time data on Indicator values and trade levels.
SIGNAL GENERATION LOGIC
Long Signal Conditions
A long signal is generated when all the following conditions are simultaneously true:
1.
Session Filter: The trade must occur during New York session hours (9:30 AM - 4:00 PM ET).
2.
Trend Confirmation: The trend must be BULLISH (price above EMA with confirmation).
3.
Price Position: Current price must be above VWAP, indicating bullish price action.
4.
Breakout or No Resistance: Either price is breaking out above resistance level with tolerance, or there is no prior resistance level to overcome.
5.
Momentum Alignment: Momentum must be either STRONG BULL or BUILDING.
This confluence of conditions ensures that long trades are only taken when the market is trending higher, price is confirming strength by trading above VWAP, and momentum is supportive of continued upward movement.
Short Signal Conditions
A short signal is generated when all the following conditions are simultaneously true:
1.
Session Filter: The trade must occur during New York session hours
2.
Trend Confirmation: The trend must be BEARISH (price below EMA with confirmation)
3.
Price Position: Current price must be below VWAP, indicating bearish price action
4.
Breakout or No Support: Either price is breaking down below support level with tolerance, or there is no prior support level to overcome
5.
Momentum Alignment: Momentum must be either STRONG BEAR or WEAKENING
Similar to long signals, short trades require alignment across multiple timeframes and analytical approaches, filtering out counter-trend trades and focusing on high-probability setups.
TRADE MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK
Entry Price Calculation
For long trades, the limit order price is calculated as: 'Close - (ATR Value × Limit Order Distance)'. This places the entry price below the current close, allowing traders to buy on dips while maintaining a favorable entry price. For short trades, the limit order is placed above the current close: 'Close + (ATR Value × Limit Order Distance)'.
The limit order distance is expressed in ATR units, making it adaptive to current volatility conditions. In more volatile markets, the limit order will be placed further from the current price, while in calmer markets, it will be closer.
Stop-Loss Placement
Stop-loss levels are calculated using the ATR multiplier to ensure adaptive risk management. For long trades: 'Entry Price - (ATR Value × ATR Multiplier)'. For short trades: 'Entry Price + (ATR Value × ATR Multiplier)'.
This adaptive approach to stop-loss placement means that in volatile markets, stops are wider to avoid being stopped out by normal price fluctuations, while in quieter markets, stops are tighter to limit potential losses. The default multiplier of 1.5 provides approximately 1.5 times the average true range of protection.
Target Price Calculation
Profit targets are determined by the reward-to-risk ratio: 'Entry Price + (ATR Stop Distance × RR Ratio)' for long trades and 'Entry Price - (ATR Stop Distance × RR Ratio)' for short trades. The default ratio of 2.0 means the target is twice the distance of the stop-loss, providing a favorable risk-reward profile.
New York Session Tracking
The indicator includes specialized logic for tracking the New York session open price. When a new NY session begins (determined by the 'isNewNySession' variable), the current open price is recorded and maintained throughout the session. This provides a reference point for measuring intraday directional bias from the session's starting level.
INFORMATION TABLES
Indicators Table
This table displays the current price, VWAP value, NY session open price, support level,resistance level, ATR, ATR-scaled stop distance, current trend classification, momentum state with RSI value, and breakout status. All values are color-coded based on their bullish or bearish implications. The VWAP cell is color-coded green if price is above VWAP (bullish) and red if below (bearish), providing instant visual confirmation of price's position relative to this critical level.
Trade Levels Table
This table shows current signal status (LONG, SHORT, or WAIT), limit order distance in ATR units, calculated limit order price, stop-loss level, and target price with the reward-to-risk ratio displayed. The signal cell is highlighted in green for long signals and red for short signals.
ALERT CONDITIONS
The indicator includes four alert conditions that can be configured in TradingView:
1.
LONG Signal: Triggers when a long signal is generated, providing entry price, stop-loss, and target information.
2.
SHORT Signal: Triggers when a short signal is generated with corresponding trade details.
3.
Breakout Up: Notifies when price breaks out above resistance level.
4.
Breakout Down: Notifies when price breaks down below support level.
These alerts enable traders to receive notifications via TradingView's alert system without continuously monitoring the charts.
USAGE EXAMPLES AND TRADING SCENARIOS
Strong Bullish Trend with VWAP Support
In this scenario, price has been trading above the 9-period EMA for multiple bars, confirming a bullish trend. The current price is above VWAP, indicating buyers are willing to pay a premium. A recent swing low has established a support level, and RSI is reading 65, indicating building momentum without being overextended. When price breaks above the recent swing high resistance with a 2% tolerance, the indicator generates a long signal. The trader places a limit order below the current bar's close (0.5 ATR units) and sets the stop-loss 1.5 ATR units below the entry, with a target 2.0 times the stop distance away.
Short Setup During Volatile Session
During a particularly volatile NY session, price gaps down below VWAP early in the day. The 9-period EMA is declining, and both current and previous bars are below it, confirming a bearish trend. The RSI has dropped to 28, indicating strong bearish momentum. A recent swing high serves as resistance, and when price breaks below the swing low support level, the indicator generates a short signal. The trader enters on a limit order placed 0.5 ATR units above the current price, with the stop-loss 1.5 ATR units above the entry and the target at a 2.0 reward-to-risk ratio.
Avoiding Counter-Trend Trades
Consider a scenario where price is above VWAP and the RSI reads 72 (overbought), but the price is below the 9-period EMA and the previous bar was also below the EMA. In this case, the trend is classified as BEARISH (or SIDEWAYS) despite the bullish price position relative to VWAP. The indicator will not generate a long signal because the trend condition is not met, protecting the trader from what could be a bear trap or continuation pattern.
No Prior Levels Scenario
At the beginning of a trading session or after significant volatility has cleared prior swing points, there may be no established support or resistance levels in the lookback window. In this case, the breakout condition 'or na(resistanceLevel)' allows long signals to be generated without requiring a resistance level to be broken, enabling traders to participate in emerging trends without waiting for prior levels to form.
BEST PRACTICES AND TIPS
Timeframe Selection
This indicator is optimized for intraday timeframes (1-minute to 60-minute charts) and specifically for NY session trading. Higher timeframes may produce more reliable signals but fewer opportunities, while lower timeframes will generate more signals but with potentially lower reliability. Traders should backtest on their preferred timeframe before trading live.
Market Conditions
The indicator performs best in trending markets with clear directional bias. During ranging or sideways markets, the trend condition may oscillate frequently, and VWAP may oscillate around price, reducing signal quality. Consider filtering signals or reducing position size during low-volatility, range-bound conditions.
Parameter Optimization
While the default parameters have been selected for general applicability, traders should consider optimizing certain parameters for specific markets or instruments. For highly volatile instruments like crude oil or natural gas, increasing the 'atrMultiplier' to 2.0 or 2.5 may provide more appropriate risk management. For less volatile instruments like certain forex pairs, reducing the multiplier to 1.0 or 1.2 may improve signal quality.
Multiple Timeframe Analysis
For enhanced performance, traders can analyze the trend on a higher timeframe (such as 15-minute or hourly) while taking signals on a lower timeframe (such as 5-minute or 1-minute). This multi-timeframe approach ensures that signals are aligned with the larger trend direction.
Risk Management
While the indicator provides calculated stop-loss levels, traders should consider their overall position sizing and portfolio risk. The ATR-based stops provide a market-adaptive approach, but individual risk tolerance and account size should ultimately determine position sizing. The 2.0 reward-to-risk ratio is fixed but can be adjusted based on personal preferences or the specific characteristics of the instrument being traded.
INTEGRATION WITH TRADINGVIEW
Adding the Indicator
To add this indicator to a TradingView chart, paste the code into the Pine Script editor and click "Add to Chart." The indicator will appear in the chart's sidebar and begin calculating immediately once sufficient historical data is available.
Configuring Alerts
To set up alerts, right-click on any of the alert conditions in the indicator's settings panel (long signal, short signal, breakout up, or breakout down) and select "Add Alert." Configure the alert frequency and notification methods (push notification, email, webhook, etc.) according to your preferences.
Customization
All input parameters can be adjusted through the indicator's settings panel without modifying the source code. Traders can experiment with different VWAP sources, ATR lengths and multipliers, swing detection parameters, and table display options to suit their trading style and market preferences.
LIMITATIONS AND CONSIDERATIONS
Session Dependency
The indicator is specifically designed for NY session trading and will not generate signals outside these hours. Traders focused on other sessions or 24-hour markets may need to modify the session string to match their trading hours.
Historical Data Requirements
The indicator requires sufficient historical data to accurately calculate swing points and support/resistance levels. On lower timeframe charts with limited history, the initial signals may be less reliable until adequate swing points are identified.
Lag in Swing Detection
By definition, swing points are confirmed after the price has moved away from them, introducing some lag into support/resistance identification. Traders should be aware that the most recent swing point may not be confirmed until several bars after it occurs.
Not Financial Advice
This indicator is a technical analysis tool and should not be construed as financial advice. Traders are responsible for their own research and risk management decisions. Past performance of any trading system does not guarantee future results.

BK AK-Tomahawk🚀👑 BK AK–TOMAHAWK — Guided Momentum Strike Engine (Early Flip) 👑🚀
All glory to G-d — the source of wisdom, restraint, and right timing.
AK is honor — discipline, patience, clean execution. No gambling. No noise.
This is a Tomahawk the way it’s meant: a cruise missile — guidance, target-lock, permission, then impact.
Not a “color-change oscillator.” Not a vibe meter.
BK AK–Tomahawk measures force in three layers so you stop entering on appearance and start entering on commitment.
🧠 What It Does (Straight)
Tomahawk builds a normalized momentum engine from ROC, then derives:
Momentum (directional pressure)
Velocity (ignition / rate-of-change of pressure)
Acceleration (continuation vs failure of ignition)
Then it adds permission gates so signals print only when the move is authorized:
Squeeze → Expansion (stored energy → release)
VWAP / Trend EMA / Volume gate (tape + structure + participation)
HTF alignment (higher court agrees)
NY session control (optional)
🛰️ The Guidance Stack (Think “Flight Computer”)
PRICE (hlc3)
→ ROC(momLen)
→ Z-score normalize(normLen)
→ Smooth(momSmoothL) = MOMENTUM
→ Smooth(sigLen) = SIGNAL
MOMENTUM Δ = VELOCITY (normalized + smoothed)
VELOCITY Δ = ACCELERATION
SQUEEZE: velStd < velStdAvg * sqMult
EXPANSION: velStd > velStdAvg * expMult
RELEASE: squeeze → expansion
🎯 What Prints “L / S” (Thrust = Permission)
A thrust is not a crossover.
A thrust is a crossover with engine ignition + continuation + gates:
Thrust Long (L)
Momentum crosses above Signal with separation (no micro-noise)
Velocity > velTh
Acceleration > 0
Filters pass (VWAP / Trend / Volume optional)
HTF agrees (optional)
Session agrees (optional)
Squeeze release gate (optional)
Thrust Short (S)
Same, inverted:
Cross down + separation
Velocity < -velTh
Acceleration < 0
Filters + HTF + Session + Squeeze gate
Translation: Tomahawk doesn’t “suggest.” It authorizes.
🟠 Exhaustion Dots (The “Don’t Chase” Layer)
When momentum/velocity hits extremes and acceleration flips against the move, Tomahawk prints exhaustion.
That’s your cue to stop adding and start managing like a professional.
Exhaust Up = strong push losing drive
Exhaust Down = heavy sell losing drive
This is not a magic reversal button. It’s fuel analysis.
🧰 Controls That Matter
leadTh = how early the color flips off velocity (deadband + memory = early without constant flicker)
minSep = cross quality (raise it to cut spam)
velTh = ignition requirement (raise it to demand real thrust)
useSqueeze = only fire on release (cleanest mode)
HTF = stop fighting higher timeframe posture
VWAP = keep trades aligned with tape on intraday
🖥 Visuals (Made to read fast)
Momentum line (your green/red, with early flip option)
Ice signal line + fill
Velocity columns + line (neon cyan/violet)
Acceleration area (deep tones)
Squeeze background + posture zones
L/S thrust markers + exhaustion dots
Optional: markers on price or in pane.
✅ How To Use It
Compression matters. If squeeze is on, wait for release or you’re early by definition.
Thrust is the entry standard. Cross + velocity + accel + gates.
HTF is the judge. If higher court disagrees, stand down.
Exhaustion is the greed-check. Protect, trim, or stop pressing.
🔔 Alerts Included

👑 King Solomon Lens — The Two Mothers Test (Discernment by Pressure)
Solomon’s genius wasn’t theatrics — it was a test that exposes truth.
In the famous case of the two mothers, he didn’t accept claims.
He introduced a pressure event that forced reality to reveal itself.
That’s exactly what Tomahawk does to price action:
Momentum is the claim. Everyone has a claim.
Velocity is the pressure test: is the claim moving with force or just talking?
Acceleration is the reveal: does the force strengthen, or does it collapse under scrutiny?
Squeeze → Expansion is the courtroom moment: compression builds, then the market must testify on release.
Solomon didn’t crown impulse — he crowned what survives examination.
Tomahawk is built in that same spirit: discernment first, action second.
🙏 Respect + Seal
Respect to AK — discipline, patience, clean execution.

Caja TavoStrategy based on "The Box" by Z and Scott
This strategy is based on measuring price volatility one hour before the market opens and half an hour after.
The trade is made in the direction that breaks the upper or lower limits.rior o inferior.
Median Anchor Oscillator [ALPHA]ALPHA – Median Anchor Oscillator
A clean, outlier-resistant z-score oscillator built around a rolling median (not mean) and Median Absolute Deviation (MAD) instead of standard deviation.
Key features:
- Green/red histogram shows deviation strength from the median anchor
- Dashed lines at ± threshold (default 2.5 – adjustable)
- Optional purple fill for extreme zones
- Auto-scales perfectly (no price squish on BTC or high-value assets)
Ideal for mean-reversion traders spotting overextension or "gravity" pullbacks.
SHORT = breaching top dashed line (red)
LONG = breaching bottom dashed line (green)
Use with a MACD or RSI for those divergence signal confirmations.
This is ALPHA – early version, still tuning.
Companion overlay suite (medians, pivot, signals, RSI overlay) coming in future, possible standalone update(s).
Feedback / suggestions very welcome!

Volatility Cluster Trend.VCT - Volatility Cluster Trend
What it does
This indicator groups market volatility into 3 zones (low, medium, high) using a clustering method. Then it picks the right zone for current conditions and draws a trend line that adapts automatically.
Green line below price = uptrend
Red line above price = downtrend
Triangles show when trend flips.
How to add it
Open TradingView
Click "Indicators" at top (or press /)
Go to "My Scripts" tab
Find "VCT - Volatility Cluster Trend"
Click it
If you haven't saved it yet:
Open Pine Editor (bottom panel)
Paste the code
Click "Add to Chart"
Settings
ATR Length - how smooth the volatility reading is. Default 10 works fine. Go higher for less noise.
Factor - how far the line sits from price. Higher = wider stops, fewer signals. Lower = tighter, more signals. Default 3 is balanced.
Lookback Period - how much history to analyze for clustering. 100 bars is good for most timeframes.
Colors - pick what you like.
How to trade it
Long
Wait for green triangle
Price should be above the green line
Enter on next candle or pullback to line
Short
Wait for red triangle
Price should be below red line
Enter on next candle or pullback to line
Stop loss
Put it on the other side of the line
If long, stop goes just below green line
If short, stop goes just above red line
Exit
When opposite signal appears
Or trail your stop along the line
Tips
Works best on trending markets
Choppy sideways = lots of false signals
Higher timeframes (4h, daily) give cleaner signals
Combine with support/resistance for better entries
Don't chase - wait for pullbacks to the line
Alerts
Right click the indicator > Add Alert
Two options:
"Buy Signal" - alerts on green triangles
"Sell Signal" - alerts on red triangles
Set to "Once Per Bar Close" to avoid fake signals.
Toby Crabel's HisVolAs in Linda Raschke's Street smarts..... . This indicator shows the signals of Toby Crabel's Historical Volatility 6/100 strategy. The strategy assumes, that volatility contraction measured by two measures would give better results.
There is one other script that is a strategy , but it assumes that the signal requires both inside bar and narrowest range, what is not as in Linda Raschke's.
The strategy and what does the script do:
1) measures short-term unannualized volatility (by default six), long term uannualized volatility (by default 100), and measures the ratio of short volatility / long volatility.
2) checks if the current bar is an inside bar or has narrowest range out of last X bar (by default 4), or both,
3) puts an etiquette if short volatility / long volatility is equal to or smaller than 0,5 AND the day is inside bar, has narrowest range, or both.
Next day both buy-stop and sell-stop should be set. Buy-stop at the high and sell-stop at the low of the bar with etiquette.
This is by no means any financial advice, nor the historical results guarantee future gain.
Bar-Close Confirmed SupertrendOverview
This indicator is a Supertrend-style trend follower that confirms direction changes only after a bar closes. Trend flips are determined using the previous bar’s close relative to the bands, which helps avoid intrabar changes during live candles.
How it works
Computes ATR (Average True Range)
Builds upper/lower bands using ATR and a multiplier
Updates trend direction only when a prior candle confirms a break of the band
Confirmation logic (bar-close based)
Trend direction is updated using conditions based on the previous candle, such as:
close > upper → confirm uptrend
close < lower → confirm downtrend
Because signals are confirmed on the prior bar, trend changes and markers are displayed only when confirmation exists.
Signals
Uptrend confirmation: prior candle closes above the upper band → bullish marker
Downtrend confirmation: prior candle closes below the lower band → bearish marker
Inputs
ATR Length (default 10)
ATR Multiplier (default 3.0)
Notes
This script is intended for bar-close workflows. Behavior and responsiveness may differ across markets and timeframes depending on volatility and chosen settings.

PrecisionPressureMeter v1.0PrecisionPressureMeter v1.0
A clean, visual gauge showing real-time buying vs selling pressure on any timeframe.
How It Works:
The meter calculates buy/sell pressure based on where price closes within each bar's range. A close near the high = buyers won that bar. A close near the low = sellers won. The meter displays this as a simple 10-block vertical gauge.
Reading The Meter:
Green blocks fill from the top = buyer percentage
Red blocks fill from the bottom = seller percentage
50/50 = 5 green, 5 red (neutral)
70% buyers = 7 green, 3 red
30% buyers = 3 green, 7 red
Settings:
Meter Position — Place it anywhere on your chart (6 positions)
Meter Smoothing — Higher = smoother/slower reaction, Lower = faster/choppier (default: 5)
Meter Size — Tiny or Small to fit your layout
Use It For:
Quick visual confirmation of who's in control
Spotting shifts in pressure before price confirms
Adding context to your existing setup
Simple. Clean. Instant read.
Aggressive ScalpingAggressive Scalping — EMA × RSI × VWAP × ADX Mesh-Up
Aggressive Scalping is a precision intraday indicator designed for range-to-early expansion environments, where most scalping strategies either over-trade or get chopped up.
This indicator intentionally meshes four complementary tools—EMA structure, RSI momentum, VWAP bias, and ADX regime detection—to isolate high-probability micro-moves while filtering out trend exhaustion and late entries.
The goal is simple:
trade only when price is aligned, momentum is controlled, and the market is quiet enough to move cleanly.
Why This Mesh-Up Exists
Most scalping indicators fail because they:
Trade every EMA cross
Ignore market regime
Chase overextended RSI
Enter against VWAP
This script solves that by assigning one clear job to each component:
1️⃣ EMA Structure (Fast vs Slow)
Defines short-term directional bias
Triggers precise entry timing
Provides clean crossover signals (▲ / ▼)
EMAs answer: Which side should I be on right now?
2️⃣ RSI Control (Not Overbought / Oversold)
Prevents chasing extended moves
Filters entries when momentum is already spent
Keeps scalps inside continuation windows
RSI answers: Is there still fuel left for a scalp?
3️⃣ VWAP Bias (Institutional Fair Value)
Aligns trades with institutional positioning
Blocks longs below VWAP and shorts above VWAP (optional)
Greatly reduces counter-trend noise
VWAP answers: Am I trading with or against the real money?
4️⃣ ADX Regime Filter (Range Detection)
Allows entries only when ADX is below a threshold
Avoids high-ADX trend exhaustion and fake pullbacks
Highlights scalp-friendly compression zones
ADX answers: Is the market calm enough to scalp?
How to Use the Signals
🔺 EMA Bullish Crossover (Green Triangle Up)
Fast EMA crosses above Slow EMA
Early directional shift
Can be used as:
Standalone momentum trigger
Confirmation for pullback entries
🔻 EMA Bearish Crossover (Red Triangle Down)
Fast EMA crosses below Slow EMA
Early downside signal
Ideal for quick downside scalps or fades
🟢 Long Entry Signal (Larger Green Triangle)
Triggers only when ALL conditions align:
EMA bullish structure
RSI not overbought
ADX below threshold (range mode)
Price above VWAP (if enabled)
🔴 Short Entry Signal (Larger Red Triangle)
Triggers only when:
EMA bearish structure
RSI not oversold
ADX below threshold
Price below VWAP (if enabled)
These are high-quality scalp entries, not constant signals.
Best Market Conditions
✔ Choppy to mildly trending sessions
✔ Open, mid-day, power hour rotations
✔ Large-cap & mega-cap stocks
✔ Index futures (ES, NQ)
✔ VWAP-respecting instruments
🚫 Not designed for:
Strong trend days
News-driven momentum explosions
Illiquid small caps
Final Notes
This indicator is not a prediction tool.
It is a structure-and-regime alignment tool.
Use it to:
Reduce over-trading
Improve entry precision
Trade fewer, cleaner setups
Stay aligned with market context
Pair it with:
Strict risk management
Session awareness
Price action confirmation
Smart Z-Score OB Z-Score Impulse & Institutional Order Blocks
This indicator identifies high-probability Order Blocks (OB) by calculating the statistical deviation of price momentum using Z-Score analysis. Unlike standard pivot-based indicators, it focuses exclusively on "Institutional Footprints"—areas where price exploded with significant force.
How it Works
Statistical Outlier Detection: The script analyzes the last 100 bars to determine the "normal" volatility range. When price momentum exceeds the 6.0 Z-Score threshold, it identifies a move that has less than a 0.001% probability of being random noise.
Impulse Tracking: It monitors cumulative one-way price distance (momentum). A breakout only triggers a signal if the movement is exceptionally strong relative to recent history.
Smart Order Blocks: When a "Z-UP" or "Z-DOWN" impulse is detected, the script automatically draws a horizontal box at the origin of the move. These zones represent high-interest areas where institutional orders were likely placed.
Trading Strategy (SMC Focus)
Z-UP (Green): Indicates an aggressive institutional buy. The resulting green box acts as a Bullish Order Block (Demand Zone).
Z-DOWN (Red): Indicates aggressive institutional selling. The red box acts as a Bearish Order Block (Supply Zone).
Entry: Look for price to return (Retest) to these boxes. Since these zones were created by massive momentum, they often provide high-probability entry points with clear Stop-Loss levels just outside the zone.
"Higher Z-Score = Fewer, more potent Order Block signals."
Crypto 1H [Universal - Strict + R:R]Overview This indicator is a trend-following strategy designed specifically for the 1-hour timeframe (though it works universally). It focuses on high-probability "pullback" entries within an established trend.
What distinguishes this script from standard trend indicators is the integrated Risk:Reward (R:R) Pre-Filter. Before generating a signal, the script calculates the distance to the logical Stop Loss and the logical Take Profit (Resistance/Support). If the trade does not offer a minimum Risk-to-Reward ratio (default 1:2), the signal is suppressed.
How It Works
The strategy follows a strictly defined logical flow:
1. Trend Identification The script uses a Baseline EMA (Default: 50) to determine the trend.
Long: Price is above the 50 EMA, and the 50 EMA is sloping up.
Short: Price is below the 50 EMA, and the 50 EMA is sloping down.
2. The Pullback & Trigger Once a trend is identified, the script waits for price to pull back to the "Trigger" EMA (Default: 21).
The Wait Window: The script utilizes a "Max Wait Bars" logic. Once the price touches the Trigger EMA, it listens for an entry signal for exactly 3 bars. If price lingers too long without reacting, the setup is invalidated to avoid chopping markets.
3. The Risk:Reward Filter (Crucial) This is the final gatekeeper. Even if the trend and candle shape are perfect, the script performs a geometric check:
Stop Loss Calculation: Determined by the lowest low (for longs) or highest high (for shorts) of the last 5 bars, plus a small ATR buffer.
Target Calculation: Determined by the highest high or lowest low of the last 24 bars (local Support/Resistance).
The Math: If the distance to the Target is not at least 2.0x the distance to the Stop Loss, the trade is skipped. This prevents buying right into resistance or selling right into support.
Indicator Features & Settings
Session Filter: Defaults to London and NY sessions (UTC) to ensure volume is present.
Volatility Filter: Requires the signal candle to have a minimum body size (0.15% of price) to avoid "doji" or low-momentum entries.
Visuals:
White Line: 50 EMA (Trend)
Yellow Line: 21 EMA (Momentum Trigger)
Labels: Green (Long) and Red (Short) entry markers.
Red Crosses: These indicate exactly where the suggested Stop Loss was located at the moment of entry.
Risk Disclaimer This tool is designed for educational and analytical purposes. The "Strict R:R" filter does not guarantee profit; it simply filters out setups that mathematically do not fit the specified ratio based on historical price action. Always perform your own analysis.

Alg0 Hal0 Peekab00 WindowDescription: Alg0 Hal0 Peekaboo Window
The Alg0 Hal0 Peekaboo Window is a specialized volatility and breakout tracking tool designed to isolate price action within a specific rolling time window. By defining a custom lookback period (defaulting to 4.5 hours), this indicator identifies the "Peekaboo Window"—the high and low range established during that time—and provides real-time visual alerts when price "peeks" outside of that established zone.
This tool is particularly effective for intraday traders who look for volatility contraction (ranges) followed by expansion (breakouts).
How It Works
The indicator dynamically calculates the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined hourly duration. Unlike static daily ranges, the Peekaboo Window moves with the price, providing a "rolling" zone of support and resistance based on recent market history.
Key Features
Rolling Lookback Window: Define your duration in hours (e.g., 4.5h) to capture specific session cycles.
Dynamic Visual Range: High and low levels are automatically plotted and filled with a background color for instant visual recognition of the "value area."
Peak Markers: Small diamond markers identify exactly where the local peaks and valleys were formed within your window.
Breakout Signals: Triangle markers trigger the moment price closes outside the window, signaling a potential trend continuation or reversal.
Unified Alerting: Integrated alert logic notifies you the second a breakout occurs, including the exact price level of the breach.
How to Use the Peekaboo Window
1. Identify the "Squeeze"
When the Peekaboo Window (the shaded area) begins to narrow or "flatten," it indicates the market is entering a period of consolidation. During this time, price is contained within the green (High) and red (Low) lines.
2. Trading Breakouts
The primary signal occurs when a Breakout Triangle appears:
Green Triangle Up: Price has closed above the window's resistance. Look for long entries or a continuation of bullish momentum.
Red Triangle Down: Price has closed below the window's support. Look for short entries or a continuation of bearish momentum.
3. Support & Resistance Rejections
The yellow diamond Peak Markers show you where the market has previously struggled to move further. If the price approaches these levels again without a breakout signal, they can serve as high-probability areas for mean-reversion trades (trading back toward the center of the window).
4. Customizing Your Strategy
Scalping: Lower the Lookback Duration (e.g., 1.5 hours) to catch micro-breakouts.
Swing/Intraday: Keep the default 4.5 hours or increase it to 8+ hours to capture major session ranges (like the London or New York opens).
Settings Overview
Lookback Duration: Set the "width" of your window in hours.
Window Area Fill: Customize the color and transparency of the range background.
Line Customization: Adjust the thickness and style (Solid/Dashed/Dotted) of the boundary lines.
Breakout Markers: Toggle the visibility of the triangles and diamonds to keep your chart clean.

LEVENT: Lifetime Estimation via Efficiency-Regime EventLEVENT — Lifetime Estimation via Efficiency-Regime Event Transitions
LEVENT is a research-grade indicator that estimates the remaining structural lifetime of the current market regime.
Unlike trend, volatility, or momentum tools, LEVENT does not measure price movement — it measures how long the current market structure is likely to survive before breaking.
This script implements the LEVENT model published on Zenodo (Bülent Duman, 2026) and is built on top of the open-source DERYA (Dynamic Efficiency Regime Yield Analyzer) microstructural efficiency framework.
What LEVENT measures
LEVENT outputs a single continuous variable L that represents the remaining survival capacity of the active efficiency regime.
High L → the current regime has strong structural endurance
Falling L → the regime is consuming its capacity
L → 0 → regime exhaustion and elevated probability of transition
This makes LEVENT a forward-looking structural time variable, not a price indicator.
What is inside this script
This implementation contains the following components:
1. DERYA (open-source microstructure efficiency)
DERYA is computed from OHLC data as:
Net close-to-close movement divided by total intrabar range
It is smoothed with an EMA and normalized over a rolling window to produce a bounded efficiency state (0–100).
This is an open-source indicator and is explicitly credited in the LEVENT paper.
2. Transition Strength (S)
S measures how unstable the regime is by combining:
the slope of DERYA
the acceleration of DERYA
This is not RSI, MACD, or ATR — it is a state-transition intensity metric.
3. Regime Engine
Markets are classified into four structural regimes:
Expansion
Exhaustion
Collapse
Base / Recovery
A debounce + persistence filter is used to avoid noise-based flickering.
4. Structural Lifetime (LEVENT L)
Each regime is assigned a capacity (Λ) and a fragility (α).
LEVENT then evolves as a jump-and-countdown survival process:
On regime change → L resets to full capacity
Inside a regime → L decays deterministically
High instability → faster decay
This is not a moving average, oscillator, or probability estimate — it is a structural survival clock.
How to use LEVENT
LEVENT is designed to be used as a regime-health overlay, not a buy/sell trigger.
Typical uses:
Detect late-stage trends when L is low
Avoid initiating positions when the regime is near collapse
Compare structural stability across assets
Combine with price, trend, or volume systems
Do not use LEVENT alone as a trading signal.
LEVENT tells you “how long the structure may last”, not “where price will go.”
Visuals
Background colors show the current regime
The LEVENT line shows remaining structural lifetime
A table displays the active regime and current L value
Important notes
LEVENT is not RSI, MACD, ATR, or trend
LEVENT does not predict price direction
LEVENT does not issue entry/exit signals
LEVENT is a research-grade structural model
The DERYA component used here is an open-source microstructural efficiency estimator and is credited accordingly.

Big Trend Catcher: Dual-Gate EMA & ATR Trailing Swing TraderThe Big Trend Catcher: Long-Only Progressive Swing System
OVERVIEW
The Big Trend Catcher is a high-conviction, long-only swing trading strategy designed to identify and ride sustained market moves. Unlike traditional trend-following systems that often get "chopped out" during sideways consolidation, this strategy utilizes a Dual-Gate Filter to ensure you only enter when short-term momentum and the long-term trend are in total alignment.
It is specifically tuned for high-growth stocks and ETFs where capturing the lion’s share of a multi-week or multi-month move is the primary objective.
CORE LOGIC: THE DUAL-GATE SYSTEM
To maintain a high quality of entries, the strategy requires a "confirmed launch" through two distinct filters:
The Momentum Gate (20 EMA): Identifies immediate price acceleration and volume-backed impulse.
The Long-Term Gate (100 EMA): Acts as the ultimate trend filter. The script utilizes a "Signal Memory" logic—if an impulse happens while price is still below the 100 EMA, the trade is held in a "Pending" state. The entry only triggers once the price closes firmly above the 100 EMA.
Goal: This prevents "bottom fishing" in established downtrends and keeps you in cash during sideways "death loops" when the long-term direction is unclear.
KEY FEATURES
1. Progressive Pyramiding (Scale-In)
The biggest profits in swing trading are often made by adding to winners. This system features two automated scale-in triggers:
Velocity Adds (VOLC): Adds to the position if the stock is up >10% and moving with rising momentum, allowing you to build a larger position as the trend proves its strength.
Pullback Adds: Adds to the position when the price tests the 20 EMA and holds, allowing you to buy the "dip" within a healthy uptrend.
2. The Phoenix Re-Entry
This logic is designed to catch "V-shaped" recoveries. If the strategy exits on a trend break but the price aggressively reclaims the 20 EMA on massive volume shortly after, it re-enters the trade. This ensures you aren't left behind during the second leg of a major run after a temporary shakeout.
3. Iron-Floor ATR Exit
We use a 3.5x ATR Trailing Stop combined with the 100 EMA. This wider-than-average "breathing room" is designed to keep you in for significant gains while ignoring the minor daily volatility that often shakes out traders with tighter stops.
HOW TO USE
Best Timeframes: Daily (D) is recommended for identifying major cycles, but it can be applied to the 4-Hour (4H) for more active swing trading.
Settings:
* 20 EMA: Your short-term momentum guide.
* 100 EMA: Your long-term trend guide.
* ATR Multiplier: Set to 3.5 for maximum "trend hugging."
SUMMARY OF VISUALS
Blue Line (100 EMA): The Long-Term Trend.
Yellow Line (20 EMA): The Short-Term Momentum.
Red Stepped Line: Your ATR Trailing Floor (The "Iron Floor").
Lime Triangle: Initial Trade Entry.
Blue/Orange Shapes: Progressive Scale-in points.
Multi-Filter Profit MaximizerDescription : This script is a trend-following system designed to maximize profits by capturing extended trends while filtering out market noise. It integrates four core components:
SuperTrend (Customized): Acts as a dynamic trailing stop and trend baseline.
ADX Filter: Ensures signals only occur during active volatility to avoid choppy markets.
CVD (Cumulative Volume Delta): Validates the price movement with actual volume flow.
Stochastic Momentum: Pinpoints high-probability entry entries within the trend.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to Use This Indicator (Profit Maximization Manual)
This indicator is designed to prioritize **“win rate” and “price range”** over the number of entries.
Market Environment Recognition (Background & Lines):
Green background & green line: An uptrend. Focus solely on long positions.
Red background & red line: A downtrend. Focus solely on short positions.
EMA 200 (Orange Line): The iron rule is to go long if the candlestick is above this line, and short if it's below.
Entry (BUY / SELL Signals):
Enter when the BUY or SELL label appears.
This is the moment when the “trend direction,” “momentum via ADX,” “fund flow via CVD,” and “timing via Stochastic” all align perfectly.
Profit Maximization Exit (Most Critical):
Stop Loss (SL): Exit immediately if the candle body breaks below the green (or red) SuperTrend line right after entry. No hesitation.
Take Profit (TP):
Method A (Trend Riding): Hold until the SuperTrend line changes color. If a major trend emerges, this can yield tremendous profits.
Method B (Conservative Approach): Take half the profit at roughly a 1:2 risk-reward ratio, then hold the remainder aligned with the SuperTrend.
Why This is “The Best”
Many indicators get whipped back and forth in range-bound markets, spitting out profits. It's coded to generate absolutely no signals when ADX < 20 (weak market). Furthermore, using SuperTrend as the stop-loss line forces a structure that comes closest to the Holy Grail of trading: **“Small losses, unlimited profits as long as the trend continues.”**
