Market Conditions Panel [ARC Trade]
## 📊 ARC Trade – Bias & Decision Panel
**ARC Trade Panel** is a **decision-support indicator** designed to help traders evaluate market conditions **before entering a trade**.
This is **not a signal indicator**. Its purpose is to answer a simple but critical question:
> *Should I trade now, or should I wait?*
---
### 🔍 What does the panel show?
**• Market Direction (At a Glance)**
The panel header updates dynamically:
* **BULL**
* **BEAR**
* **RANGE**
This allows traders to instantly understand the current market environment without overloading the chart.
---
**• Timeframe Alignment (HTF ↔ LTF)**
Checks whether higher timeframe and lower timeframe are aligned.
When timeframes are not aligned, the panel automatically warns the trader to be cautious.
---
**• Market Structure (MSS & BOS Logic)**
Market Structure Shift and continuation logic are evaluated internally.
This helps reduce fake breakouts and premature entries.
---
**• Market Warning (Trade Decision Guidance)**
The panel produces clear decision messages:
* **BUY possible**
* **SELL possible**
* **WATCH / WAIT**
These messages are generated by combining structure, trend, alignment, volatility, and market conditions.
---
**• Trend Strength (ADX – Explained)**
Instead of showing raw ADX values only, the panel classifies trend strength:
* Weak
* Moderate
* Strong
This helps traders avoid range-bound conditions and low-quality setups.
---
**• Risk Mode (Position Size Psychology)**
Automatically evaluates market risk and displays:
* **LOW**
* **MEDIUM**
* **HIGH**
Risk Mode is based on volatility expansion, daily range usage, ADX strength, and timeframe alignment.
The goal is to guide traders toward **better position sizing decisions**, not just entries.
---
**• Signal Freshness (Timing Awareness)**
When a BUY or SELL becomes available, the panel tracks how fresh the signal is:
* Fresh
* Normal
* Late
This feature helps prevent chasing late entries.
---
**• Daily Movement & Remaining Potential (ATR-based)**
Shows how much of the daily range has already been used and estimates the remaining potential movement.
This helps traders avoid entering trades when the market is already overextended.
---
### 🎯 Who is this panel for?

Market Regime | NY Session Killzones Indicator [ApexLegion]Market Regime | NY Session Killzones Indicator
Introduction and Theoretical Background
The Market Regime | NY Session Killzones indicator is designed exclusively for New York market hours (07:00-16:00 ET). Unlike universal indicators that attempt to function across disparate global sessions, this tool employs session-specific calibration to target the distinct liquidity characteristics of the NY trading day: Pre-Market structural formation (08:00-09:30), the Morning breakout window (09:30-12:00), and the Afternoon Killzone (13:30-16:00)—periods when institutional order flow exhibits the highest concentration and most definable technical structure. By restricting its operational scope to these statistically significant time windows, the indicator focuses on signal relevance while filtering the noise inherent in lower-liquidity overnight or extended-hours trading environments.
I. TECHNICAL RATIONALE: THE PRINCIPLE OF CONTEXTUAL FUSION
1. The Limitation of Acontextual Indicators
Traditional technical indicators often fail because they treat every bar and every market session equally, applying static thresholds (e.g., RSI > 70) without regard for the underlying market structure or liquidity environment. However, institutional volume and market volatility are highly dependent on the time of day (session) and the prevailing long-term risk environment.
This indicator was developed to address this "contextual deficit" by fusing three distinct yet interdependent analytical layers:
• Time and Structure (Macro): Identifying high-probability trading windows (Killzones) and critical structural levels (Pre-Market Range, PDH/PDL).
• Volatility and Scoring (Engine): Normalizing intraday momentum against annual volatility data to create an objective, statistically grounded AI Score.
• Risk Management (Execution): Implementing dynamic, volatility-adjusted Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) parameters based on the Average True Range (ATR).
2. The Mandate for 252-Day Normalization (Z-Score)
What makes this tool unique is its 252-day Z-Score normalization engine that transforms raw momentum readings into statistically grounded probability scores, allowing the same indicator to deliver consistent, context-aware signals across any timeframe—from 1-minute scalping to 1-hour swing trades—without manual recalibration.
THE PROBLEM OF SCALE INVARIANCE
A high Relative Strength Index (RSI) reading on a 1-minute chart has a completely different market implication than a high RSI reading on a Daily chart. Simple percentage-based thresholds (like 70 or 30) do not provide true contextual significance. A sudden spike in momentum may look extreme on a 5-minute chart, but if it is statistically insignificant compared to the overall volatility of the last year, it may be a poor signal.
THE SOLUTION: CROSS-TIMEFRAME Z-SCORE NORMALIZATION
This indicator utilizes the Pine Script function request.security to reference the Daily timeframe for calculating the mean (μ) and standard deviation (σ) of a momentum oscillator (RSI) over the past 252 trading days (one year).
The indicator then calculates the Z-Score (Z) for the current bar's raw momentum (x): Z = (x - μ) / σ
Core Implementation: float raw_rsi = ta.rsi(close, 14) // x
= request.security(syminfo.tickerid, "D",
, // σ (252 days)
lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on)
float cur_rsi_norm = d_rsi_std != 0 ? (raw_rsi - d_rsi_mean) / d_rsi_std : 0.0 // Z
This score provides an objective measurement of current intraday momentum significance by evaluating its statistical extremity against the yearly baseline of daily momentum. This standardized approach provides the scoring engine with consistent, global contextual information, independent of the chart's current viewing timeframe.
II. CORE COMPONENTS AND TECHNICAL ANALYSIS BREAKDOWN
1. TIME AND SESSION ANALYSIS (KILLZONES AND BIAS)
The indicator visually segments the trading day based on New York (NY) trading sessions, aligning the analysis with periods of high institutional liquidity events.
Pre-Market (PRE)
• Function: Defines the range before the core market opens. This range establishes structural support and resistance levels (PMH/PML).
• Technical Implementation: Uses a dedicated Session input (ny_pre_sess). The High and Low values (pm_h_val/pm_l_val) within this session are stored and plotted for structural reference.
• Smart Extension Logic: PMH/PML lines are automatically extended until the next Pre-Market session begins, providing continuous support/resistance references overnight.
NY Killzones (AM/PM)
• Function: Highlights high-probability volatility windows where institutional liquidity is expected to be highest (e.g., NY open, lunch, NY close).
• Technical Implementation: Separate session inputs (kz_ny_am, kz_ny_pm) are utilized to draw translucent background fills, providing a clear visual cue for timing.
Market Regime Bias
• Function: Determines the initial directional premise for the trading day. The bias is confirmed when the price breaks either the Pre-Market High (PMH) or the Pre-Market Low (PML).
• Technical Implementation: Involves the comparison of the close price against the predefined structural levels (check_h for PMH, check_l for PML). The variable active_bias is set to Bullish or Bearish upon confirmed breakout.
Trend Bar Coloring
• Function: Applies a visual cue to the bars based on the established regime (Bullish=Cyan, Bearish=Red). This visual filter helps mitigate noise from counter-trend candles.
• Technical Implementation: The Pine Script barcolor() function is tied directly to the value of the determined active_bias.
2. VOLATILITY NORMALIZED SCORING ENGINE
The internal scoring mechanism accumulates points from multiple market factors to determine the strength and validity of a signal. The purpose is to apply a robust filtering mechanism before generating an entry.
The score accumulation logic is based on the following factors:
• Market Bias Alignment (+3 Points): Points are awarded for conformance with the determined active_bias (Bullish/Bearish).
• VWAP Alignment (+2 Points): Assesses the position of the current price relative to the Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP). Alignment suggests conformity with the average institutional transaction price.
• Volume Anomaly (+2 Points): Detects a price move accompanied by an abnormally high relative volume (odd_vol_spike). This suggests potential institutional participation or significant order flow.
• VIX Integration (+2 Points): A score derived from the CBOE VIX index, assessing overall market stability and stress. Stable VIX levels add points, while high VIX levels (stress regimes) remove points or prevent signal generation entirely.
• ML Probability Score (+3 Points): This is the core predictive engine. It utilizes a Log-Manhattan Distance Kernel to compare the current market state against historical volatility patterns. The script implements a Log-linear distance formula (log(1 + |Δ|) ). This approach mathematically dampens the impact of extreme volatility spikes (outliers), ensuring that the similarity score reflects true structural alignment rather than transient market noise.
Core Technical Logic (Z-Score Normalization)
float cur_rsi_norm = d_rsi_std != 0 ? (raw_rsi - d_rsi_mean) / d_rsi_std : 0.0
• Technical Purpose: This line calculates the Z-Score (cur_rsi_norm) of the current momentum oscillator reading (raw_rsi) by normalizing it against the mean (d_rsi_mean) and standard deviation (d_rsi_std) derived from 252 days of Daily momentum data. If the standard deviation is zero (market is perfectly flat), it safely returns 0.0 to prevent division by zero runtime errors. This allows the AI's probability score to be based on the current signal's significance within the context of the entire trading year.
3. EXECUTION AND RISK MANAGEMENT (ATR MODEL)
The indicator utilizes the Average True Range (ATR) volatility model. This helps risk management scale dynamically with market volatility by allowing users to define TP/SL distances independently based on the current ATR.
Stop Loss Multiplier (sl_mult)
• Function: Sets the Stop Loss (SL) distance as a configurable multiple of the current ATR (e.g., 1.5 × ATR).
• Technical Logic: The price level is calculated as: last_sl_price := close - (atr_val * sl_mult). The mathematical sign is reversed for short trades.
Take Profit Multiplier (tp_mult)
• Function: Sets the Take Profit (TP) distance as a configurable multiple of the current ATR (e.g., 3.0 × ATR).
• Technical Logic: The price level is calculated as: last_tp_price := close + (atr_val * tp_mult). The mathematical sign is reversed for short trades.
Structural SL Option
• Function: Provides an override to the ATR-based SL calculation. When enabled, it forces the Stop Loss to the Pre-Market High/Low (PMH/PML) level, aligning the stop with a key institutional structural boundary.
• Technical Logic: The indicator checks the use_struct_sl input. If true, the calculated last_sl_price is overridden with either pm_h_val or pm_l_val, dependent on the specific trade direction.
Trend Continuation Logic
• Function: Enables signal generation in established, strong trends (typically in the Afternoon session) based on follow-through momentum (a new high/low of the previous bar) combined with a high Signal Score, rather than exclusively relying on the initial PMH/PML breakout.
• Technical Logic: For a long signal, the is_cont_long logic specifically requires checks like active_bias == s_bull AND close > high , confirming follow-through momentum within the established regime.
Smart Snapping & Cleanup (16:00 Market Close)
• Function: To maintain chart cleanliness, all trade boxes (TP/SL), AI Prediction zones, Killzone overlays (NY AM/PM), and Liquidity lines (PDH/PDL) are automatically "snapped" and cut off precisely at 16:00 NY Time (Market Close).
• Technical Logic: When is_market_close condition is met (hour == 16 and minute == 0), the script executes cleanup logic that:
◦ Closes active trades and evaluates final P&L
◦ Snaps all TP/SL box widths to current bar
◦ Truncates AI Prediction ghost boxes at market close
◦ Cuts off NY AM/PM Killzone background fills
◦ Terminates PDH/PDL line extensions
◦ Prevents visual clutter from extending into post-market sessions
4. LIQUIDITY AND STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS
The indicator plots key structural levels that serve as high-probability magnet zones or areas of potential liquidity absorption.
• Pre-Market High/Low (PMH/PML): These are the high and low established during the configured pre-market session (ny_pre_sess). They define the primary structural breakout level for the day, often serving as the initial market inflection point or the key entry level for the morning session.
• PDH (Previous Day High): The high of the calendar day immediately preceding the current bar. This represents a key Liquidity Pool; large orders are often placed above this level, making it a frequent target for stop hunts or liquidity absorption by market makers.
• PDL (Previous Day Low): The low of the calendar day immediately preceding the current bar. This also represents a key Liquidity Pool and a high-probability reversal or accumulation point, particularly during the Killzones.
FIFO Array Management
The indicator uses FIFO (First-In-First-Out) array structures to manage liquidity lines and labels, automatically deleting the oldest objects when the count exceeds 500 to comply with drawing object limits.
5. AI PREDICTION BOX (PREDICTIVE MODEL)
Function: Analyzes AI scores and volatility to project predicted killzone ranges and duration with asymmetric directional bias.
A. DIRECTIONAL BIAS (ASYMMETRIC EXPANSION)
The prediction model calculates directional probability using the ML kernel's 252-day Normalized RSI (Z-Score) and Relative Volume (RVOL). The prediction box dynamically adjusts its range based on this probability to provide immediate visual feedback on high-probability direction.
Bullish Scenario (ml_prob > 1.0):
• Upper Range: Expands significantly (1.5x multiplier) to show the aggressive upside target
• Lower Range: Tightens (0.5x multiplier) to show the invalidation level
• Visual Intent: The box is visibly skewed upward, immediately communicating bullish bias without requiring numerical analysis.
Bearish Scenario (ml_prob < -1.0):
• Upper Range: Tightens (0.5x multiplier) to show the invalidation level
• Lower Range: Expands significantly (1.5x multiplier) to show the aggressive downside target
• Visual Intent: The box is visibly skewed downward, immediately communicating bearish bias.
Neutral Scenario (-1.0 < ml_prob < 1.0):
Both ranges use balanced multipliers, creating a symmetrical box that indicates uncertainty.
B. DYNAMIC VOLATILITY BOOSTER (SESSION-BASED ADAPTATION)
The prediction box adjusts its volatility multiplier based on the current session and market conditions to account for intraday volatility patterns.
AM Session (Morning: 07:00-12:00):
• Base Multiplier: 1.0x (Neutral Base)
• Logic: Morning sessions often contain false breakouts and noise. The base multiplier starts neutral to avoid over-projecting during consolidation.
• Trend Booster: Multiplier jumps to 1.5x when:
Price > London Session Open AND AI is Bullish (ml_prob > 0), OR
Price < London Session Open AND AI is Bearish (ml_prob < 0)
• Logic: When the London trend (typically 03:00-08:00 NY time) aligns with the AI model's directional conviction, the indicator aggressively targets higher volatility expansion. This filters for "institutional follow-through" rather than random morning chop.
PM Session (Afternoon: 13:00-16:00):
• Fixed Multiplier: 1.8x
• Logic: The PM session, particularly the 13:30-16:00 ICT Silver Bullet window, often contains the "True Move" of the day. A higher baseline multiplier is applied to emphasize this session's significance over morning noise.
Safety Floor:
A minimum range of 0.2% of the current price is enforced regardless of volatility conditions.
• Purpose: Maintains the prediction box visibility during extreme low-volatility consolidation periods where ATR might collapse to near-zero values.
Volatility Clamp Protection:
Maximum volatility is capped at three times the current ATR value. During flash crashes, circuit breaker halts, or large overnight gaps, raw volatility calculations can spike to extreme levels. This clamp prevents prediction boxes from expanding to unrealistic widths.
Technical Implementation:
f_get_ai_multipliers(float _prob) =>
float _abs_prob = math.abs(_prob)
float _range_mult = 1.0
float _dur_mult = 1.0
if _abs_prob > 30
_range_mult := 1.8
else if _abs_prob > 10
_range_mult := 1.2
else
_range_mult := 0.7
C. PRACTICAL INTERPRETATION
• Wide Upper Range + Tight Lower Range: Strong bullish conviction. The model expects significant upside with limited downside risk.
• Tight Upper Range + Wide Lower Range: Strong bearish conviction. The model expects significant downside with limited upside.
• Symmetrical Range: Neutral/uncertain market. Wait for directional confirmation before entry.
• Large Box (Extended Duration): High-confidence prediction expecting sustained movement.
• Small Box (Short Duration): Low-confidence or choppy conditions. Expect quick resolution.
III. PRACTICAL USAGE GUIDE: METHODOLOGY AND EXECUTION
A. ESTABLISHING TRADING CONTEXT (THE THREE CHECKS)
The primary goal of the dashboard is to filter out low-probability trade setups before they occur.
• Timeframe Selection: Although the core AI is normalized to the Daily context, the indicator performs optimally on intraday timeframes (e.g., 5m, 15m) where session-based volatility is most pronounced.
• PHASE Check (Timing): Always confirm the current phase. The highest probability signals typically occur within the visually highlighted NY AM/PM Killzones because this is when institutional liquidity and volume are at their peak. Signals outside these zones should be treated with skepticism.
• MARKET REGIME Check (Bias): Ensure the signal (BUY/SELL arrow) aligns with the established MARKET REGIME bias (BULLISH/BEARISH). Counter-bias signals are technically allowed if the score is high, but they represent a higher risk trade.
• VIX REGIME Check (Risk): Review the VIX REGIME for overall market stress. Periods marked DANGER (high VIX) indicate elevated volatility and market uncertainty. During DANGER regimes, reducing position size or choosing a wider SL Multiplier is advisable.
B. DASHBOARD INTERPRETATION (THE REAL-TIME STATUS DISPLAY)
The indicator features a non-intrusive dashboard that provides real-time, context-aware information based on the core analytical engines.
PHASE: (PRE-MARKET, NY-AM, LUNCH, NY-PM)
• Meaning: Indicates the current institutional session time. This is derived from the customizable session inputs.
• Interpretation: Signals generated during NY-AM or NY-PM (Killzones) are generally considered higher-probability due to increased institutional participation and liquidity.
MARKET REGIME: (BULLISH, BEARISH, NEUTRAL)
• Meaning: The established directional bias for the trading day, confirmed by the price breaking above the Pre-Market High (PMH) or below the Pre-Market Low (PML).
• Interpretation: Trading with the established regime (e.g., taking a BUY signal when the regime is BULLISH) is the primary method. NEUTRAL indicates that the PMH/PML boundary has not yet been broken, suggesting market ambiguity.
VIX REGIME: (STABLE, DANGER)
• Meaning: A measure of overall market stress and stability, based on the CBOE VIX index integration. The thresholds (20.0 and 35.0 default) are customizable by the user.
• Interpretation: STABLE indicates stable volatility, favoring momentum trades. DANGER (VIX > 35.0) indicates extreme stress; signals generated in this environment require caution and often necessitate smaller position sizing.
SIGNAL SCORE: (0 to 10+ Points)
• Meaning: The accumulated score derived from the VOLATILITY NORMALIZED AI SCORING ENGINE, factoring in bias, VWAP alignment, volume, and the Z-Score probability.
• Interpretation: The indicator generates a signal when this score meets or exceeds the Minimum Entry Score (default 3). A higher score (e.g., 7+) indicates greater statistical confluence and a stronger potential entry.
AI PROBABILITY: (Bull/Bear %)
• Meaning: Directional probability derived from the ML kernel, expressed as a percentage with Bull/Bear label.
• Interpretation: Higher absolute values (>20%) indicate stronger directional conviction from the ML model.
LIVE METRICS SECTION:
• STATUS: Shows current trade state (LONG, SHORT, or INACTIVE)
• ENTRY: Displays the entry price for active trades
• TARGET: Shows the calculated Take Profit level
• ROI | KILL ZONE:
◦ For Active Trades: Displays real-time P&L percentage during NY session hours.
◦ At Market Close (16:00 NY): Since this is a NY session-specific indicator, any active position is automatically evaluated and closed at 16:00. The final result (VALIDATED or INVALIDATED) is determined based on whether the trade reached profit or loss at market close.
◦ Result Persistence: The killzone result (VALIDATED/INVALIDATED) remains displayed on the dashboard until the next NY AM KILLZONE session begins, providing a clear performance reference for the previous trading day.
Note: If a trade is still trending at 16:00, it will be force-closed and evaluated at that moment, as the indicator operates strictly within NY trading hours.
C. SIGNAL GENERATION AND ENTRY LOGIC
The indicator generates signals based on two distinct technical setups, both of which require the accumulated SIGNAL SCORE to be above the configured Minimum Entry Score.
Breakout Entry
• Trigger Condition: Price closes beyond the Pre-Market High (PMH) or Low (PML).
• Rationale: This setup targets the initial directional movement for the day. A breakout confirms the institutional bias by decisively breaking the first major structural boundary, making the signal high-probability.
Continuation Entry
• Trigger Condition: The market is already in an established regime (e.g., BULLISH), and the price closes above the high (or below the low) of the previous bar, while the SIGNAL SCORE remains high. Requires the Allow Trend Continuation parameter to be active.
• Rationale: This setup targets follow-through trades, typically in the afternoon session, capturing momentum after the morning's direction has been confirmed. This filters for sustainability in the established trend.
Execution: Execute the trade immediately upon the close of the bar that prints the BUY or SELL signal arrow.
D. MANAGING RISK AND EXITS
1. RISK PARAMETER SELECTION
The indicator immediately draws the dynamic TP/SL zones upon entry.
• Volatility-Based (Recommended Default): By setting the SL Multiplier (e.g., 1.5) and the TP Multiplier (e.g., 3.0), the indicator enforces a constant, dynamically sized risk-to-reward ratio (e.g., 1:2 in this example). This helps that risk management scales proportionally with the current market volatility (ATR).
• Structural Override: Selecting the Use Structural SL parameter fixes the stop-loss not to the ATR calculation, but to the more significant structural level of the PMH or PML. This is utilized by traders who favor institutional entry rules where the stop is placed behind the liquidity boundary.
2. EXIT METHODS
• Hard Exit: Price hits the visual TP or SL box boundary.
• Soft Exit (Momentum Decay Filter): If the trade is active and the SIGNAL SCORE drops below the Exit Score Threshold (default 3), it indicates that the momentum supporting the trade has significantly collapsed. This serves as a momentum decay filter, prompting the user to consider a manual early exit even if the SL/TP levels have not been hit, thereby preserving capital during low-momentum consolidation.
• Market Close Auto-Exit: At 16:00 NY time, any active trade is automatically closed and classified as VALIDATED (profit) or INVALIDATED (loss) based on current price vs. entry price.

Conditions: Market Bias is Bearish (or valid Continuation) + Signal Score ≥ Minimum Entry Score.
Usage: Use this alert to open new Short positions or close existing Long positions.
V. IMPORTANT TECHNICAL LIMITATIONS
⚠️ Intraday Only (Timeframe Compatibility)
This indicator is strictly designed for Intraday Timeframes (1m to 4h).
Daily/Weekly Charts: The session logic (e.g., "09:30-16:00") cannot function on Daily bars because a single bar encompasses the entire session. Session boxes, TP/SL zones, and AI prediction boxes will NOT draw on the Daily timeframe. Only the PDH/PDL liquidity lines remain visible on Daily charts. This is expected behavior, not a limitation.
Maximum Supported Timeframe: All visual components (session boxes, killzone overlays, TP/SL zones, AI prediction boxes) are displayed up to the 4-hour timeframe. Above this timeframe, only PDH/PDL lines and the dashboard remain functional.
⚠️ Drawing Object Limit (Max 500)
A single script can display a maximum of 500 drawing objects (boxes/lines) simultaneously.
On lower timeframes (e.g., 1-minute), where many signals and session boxes are generated, older history (typically beyond 10-14 days) will automatically disappear to make room for new real-time data.
For deeper historical backtesting visualization, switch to higher timeframes (e.g., 15m, 1h).
The indicator implements FIFO array management to comply with this limit while maintaining the most recent and relevant visual data.
VI. PRACTICAL TRADING TIPS AND BEST PRACTICES
• Killzone Confirmation: The highest statistical validity is observed when a high-score signal occurs directly within a visible NY AM/PM Killzone. Use the Killzones as a strict time filter.
• Liquidity Awareness (PDH/PDL): Treat the Previous Day High (PDH) and Low (PDL) lines as magnets. If your dynamic Take Profit (TP) is placed just above PDH, consider adjusting your target slightly below PDH or utilizing the Soft Exit, as liquidity absorption at these levels often results in sudden, sharp reversals that stop out a trade just before the target is reached.
• VIX as a Position Sizer: During DANGER VIX regimes, the resulting high volatility means the ATR value will be large. It is prudent to either reduce the SL Multiplier or, more commonly, reduce the overall position size to maintain a constant currency risk exposure per trade.
• Continuation Filter Timing: Trend Continuation signals are most effective during the Afternoon (PM) session when the morning's directional breakout has had time to establish a strong, clear, and sustainable trend. Avoid using them in the initial AM session when the direction is still being contested.
• 16:00 Market Close Rule: All trades, boxes, and lines are automatically cleaned up at 16:00 NY time. This prevents overnight chart clutter and maintains visual clarity.

STOC Trend Analysis for F&OThis indicator is a multi-timeframe trend confirmation tool designed to help traders identify high-probability trend alignment and filter low-quality trades. It plots three independent Supertrend calculations on the same chart, each with its own configurable ATR length and multiplier, allowing the user to combine fast momentum, intermediate swing trend, and slower structural trend in a single visual framework. In addition to plotting the Supertrend lines, the indicator fills the chart background for each Supertrend, with varying transparency levels, enabling instant visual recognition of trend direction, strength, and alignment. When all three Supertrends point in the same direction, it signals a strong, regime-aligned trend suitable for swing or positional trading, while mixed backgrounds indicate consolidation or transition phases where risk should be reduced. This indicator is best used as a trend filter in systematic trading, breakout strategies, and rule-based swing trading systems rather than as a standalone entry tool.
This indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only. Trading and investing involve risk. Always do your own analysis and use proper risk management.
Simple ATR Trailing StopThis Pine Script v6 indicator overlays a Chandelier Exit-style ATR trailing stop on TradingView charts. It calculates volatility using ATR(14) with a customizable multiplier (default 3.0), plotting green long stops below highs and red short stops above lows. Ideal for swing trading, it dynamically adjusts exits to lock in profits while adapting to market volatility—toggle lines for longs/shorts as needed.

Volume-Weighted Hybrid Channel [Capitalize Labs]Volume-Weighted Hybrid Channel (VWHC) is a channel-only indicator designed to visualise mean and volatility structure using a blended framework. It combines a configurable mean engine (SuperSmoother, EMA, SMA, or RMA) with an anchored VWAP component, then builds a four-level band ladder around a hybrid mean using a hybrid width that blends a range engine (ATR or true range variants) with anchored, volume-weighted standard deviation. The result is a smooth, adaptive channel intended to help us contextualise price location and volatility expansion or contraction relative to the hybrid mean.
The indicator supports Weekly or Session anchoring for the VWAP and sigma components, and includes optional transition smoothing after anchor resets to reduce visual stepping. Band levels are user-defined (with automatic ordering enforcement), and optional gradient fills can be enabled for clearer zone recognition. An optional Band Occupancy Table is included to show how frequently price closes inside each zone, either over a rolling lookback or since the most recent anchor reset. This table is informational only and does not generate signals.
This script is an indicator, not a strategy. It does not place trades, generate alerts, or provide entry or exit instructions. Outputs depend on chart symbol, timeframe, and data quality, including volume availability. The channel is designed to be non-repainting in the sense that it uses confirmed bar data and does not use forward-looking logic; however, like all indicators, the current bar can update until it closes.

The Physics Engine [@Ash_TheTrader]Here is the updated, ultra-detailed TradingView description. I have expanded the strategy
⚛️ Kinematic Impulse Engine: Measuring the G-Force of Price
By @Ash_TheTrader
Traditional technical analysis often relies on "lagging" indicators. Tools like the RSI or moving averages tell you where price has been . While useful, they are like driving a car looking only in the rearview mirror.
The Kinematic Impulse Engine (KIE) is a next-generation momentum tool.
It treats price action like a physical object moving through space to measure its Velocity (Speed) , Acceleration (G-Force) , and Mass (Volume) . By understanding the physics behind a move, we can determine if a trend is a powerful impulse or an exhausted drift waiting to reverse.
---
⚛️ The Core Concept: Trading with G-Force
If you step on the gas pedal in a car, you feel pushed back into your seat. That is acceleration (positive G-Force). When you slam on the brakes, you are thrown forward. That is deceleration (negative G-Force).
The market works the same way.
Standard momentum indicators only measure speed. The KIE measures how fast that speed is changing .
The Problem: Price can be moving higher (high speed), but the rate at which it is moving higher is slowing down. Standard indicators look bullish right up until the crash.
The Solution: The KIE detects that deceleration instantly, warning you that the "G-Force" pushing the price up has vanished, often before the price peaks.
---
🎨 Visual Decoder: Reading the Heatmap
We have eliminated the need to stare at complex oscillator lines. The KIE paints the candles directly based on their "Kinetic Energy."
1. Neon Cyan: The Impulse (High G-Force) 🚀
Physics State: High Velocity + Positive Acceleration.
The market has "pedal to the metal." Buyers are aggressive, and the move is speeding up.
Meaning: DO NOT SHORT. Look for entries or hold positions.
2. Deep Purple: Exhaustion (Braking) 🛑
Physics State: High Velocity + Negative Acceleration (Deceleration).
The car is still moving forward, but the driver has taken their foot off the gas.
Meaning: Take profits, tighten stops, or prepare for a reversal.
3. Dark Gray: Equilibrium (Chop) 💤
Physics State: Low Velocity.
No significant energy. The market is waiting for news or liquidity.
Meaning: Stay out. Save your fees.
---
🛡️ STRATEGY GUIDE: How to Leverage This Indicator
Here is the step-by-Step guide to using the Physics Engine for two distinct playstyles:
Strategy A: The "Rocket" Breakout (Trend Following)
Best for catching the meat of the move.
Step 1 (The Setup): Wait for price to be in a Gray (Chop) zone. This indicates potential energy is building up.
Step 2 (The Ignition): Wait for the first Neon Cyan candle to close outside of the range.
Step 3 (Validation): Look for the small Triangle Icon (Impulse Start). This confirms that G-Force has kicked in.
Step 4 (The Exit): Hold the trade as long as candles remain Cyan. The moment a candle turns Purple , the acceleration is gone. Exit or trail your stop loss tight.
Strategy B: The "Gravity" Reversal (Sniper Entry)
Best for catching tops and bottoms.
Step 1 (The Setup): Identify an extended trend where candles have been Cyan for a long time.
Step 2 (The Warning): Wait for candles to shift from Cyan to Deep Purple . This means the buyers are exhausted.
Step 3 (The Trigger): Look for the "GRAVITY" label. This is the strongest signal in the script. It means Price is making a New High, but G-Force is crashing.
Step 4 (Execution): Enter the reversal trade. Place your stop loss just above the high of the Gravity candle.
---
🧠 The Engine Room (Technical Details)
For the quants and data nerds, here is how @Ash_TheTrader designed the math:
1. Relative Velocity: Price changes are normalized against ATR (Average True Range). A $10 move in Bitcoin is not the same as a $10 move in Forex; the KIE adjusts automatically.
2. Mass Integration: Force = Mass x Acceleration. The script uses relative Volume as "Mass." A move on low volume will show weaker colors than a move on high volume.
3. The HUD: The dashboard gives you raw numbers. If G-Force is positive (Green), the trend is safe. If G-Force is negative (Red), the trend is in danger.
Trade smart. Trade with physics.

[codapro] Confirmed Supertrend Flags
Confirmed Supertrend Flags — Delayed Flip Confirmation
Description:
This script enhances the classic Supertrend by adding a confirmation delay after trend flips, helping traders filter noise and avoid premature entries in volatile environments.
Key Features:
ATR-based Supertrend stop level calculation
Confirmation logic: buy/sell flags appear only after N full bars confirm the new direction
Optional Supertrend stop line for visual tracking
Fully adjustable flag size, color, label, and placement
This is ideal for swing traders, trend followers, or anyone building a system that prefers confirmation over early guessing.
How It Works:
A trend flip is detected when price closes beyond the Supertrend stop level.
The indicator waits for a set number of bars to close in the new direction.
After confirmation, a visual flag is plotted: buy below bar, short above bar.
How to Extend with Risk Management:
While this script focuses on trend confirmation visualization, you can enhance your decision-making by combining it with risk rules:
Stop Loss: Set SL just beyond the last Supertrend level before confirmation
ATR-Based Sizing: Use the same ATR value to dynamically size your position based on volatility
Fixed % Rule: Risk a fixed % of capital per confirmed flip (e.g., 1–2%)
Time-Based Exit: Exit trades that don’t follow through within N bars post confirmation
Stack with Strategy: Use this confirmation logic to trigger entries in a separate strategy script where strategy.entry() and strategy.exit() can be defined with precise risk parameters

Index Quant Master: Volatility & Structure [Auto-Adaptive]This indicator is a comprehensive institutional-grade toolkit designed for high-precision intraday trading across major US Indices (SPX, NDX, RUT). It synthesizes Option Market Volatility, Auction Market Theory, and Algorithmic Structures into a clean, clutter-free overlay.
Designed for professional traders, this suite features a Universal Auto-Router that adapts its logic to the asset you are trading.
## Key Features & Logic:
1. Dynamic Implied Volatility Mapping (Auto-Router)
* Instead of static technicals, this module calculates statistical expected moves based on Dealer Gamma Exposure.
* Auto-Adaptive: Automatically detects the underlying asset and maps it to the correct Volatility Index:
* SPX / ES / SPY $\rightarrow$ VIX / VIX1D
* NDX / NQ / QQQ $\rightarrow$ VXN
* RUT / IWM $\rightarrow$ RVX
* Significance: These levels represent the 1-standard-deviation daily expected range.
2. Auction Market Structure (Smart Volume Profile)
* Exclusive Optimization: The Volume Profile engine is strictly optimized for major indices (SPX, NDX, ES, NQ) to ensure high-fidelity calculation of POC and Value Areas.
* Auto-Disable: To maintain performance, VP logic is automatically disabled on ETFs (SPY, QQQ) or lower-volume tickers.
* HVN/LVN: Identifies High Volume Nodes (Magnets) and Low Volume Nodes (Acceleration Zones).
3. Algorithmic Retracements & Pivots
* Plots standard Daily/Weekly Pivots and Fibonacci retracements derived from the prior session's volatility range.
* These levels serve as "Schelling Points" (consensus zones) for HFT algorithms.
4. Smart Visualization Engine
* Proximity Activation: Levels remain hidden to reduce cognitive load, only appearing when price approaches the zone (Watermark Logic).
* Adaptive Label Merging: To prevent visual clutter, overlapping levels automatically merge into a single cluster based on a dynamic percentage threshold ($0.05\%$), ensuring readability across different price scales (e.g., SPX vs. QQQ).
Usage:This tool is the ultimate overlay for S&P 500, Nasdaq 100, and Russell 2000 traders who rely on data-driven structural levels rather than lagging indicators.

The SHIFT - Signal Harmonic Inflection Flow Tracker🔄 THE SHIFT — SIGNAL HARMONIC INFLECTION FLOW TRACKER
Precision reversal detection at the exact moment price shifts direction.
📐 CORE CONCEPT: THE INFLECTION POINT
Every sustained price move begins with a single moment — the instant price crosses from one phase to another. THE SHIFT captures this exact inflection point by combining two essential confirmations:
1. The Phase Cross
Price crossing the EMA ribbon midpoint represents a structural change in market bias. The ribbon midpoint is calculated as the average of EMA 21 and EMA 55, creating a dynamic equilibrium zone. When price decisively crosses this level, it signals a potential phase transition.
2. The Confirming Wick
Not every ribbon cross leads to continuation. THE SHIFT filters for quality by requiring the crossing candle to show directional commitment through its wick structure:
✓ Bullish SHIFT: Lower wick ≥ 25% of bar range (buyers absorbed selling pressure)
✓ Bearish SHIFT: Upper wick ≥ 25% of bar range (sellers absorbed buying pressure)
This dual confirmation eliminates weak crosses that occur during sideways chop.
⚙️ HOW IT WORKS
The EMA Ribbon
Five exponential moving averages (8, 13, 21, 34, 55) form an adaptive ribbon that expands during trends and contracts during consolidation. The ribbon serves multiple purposes:
✓ Visual trend identification through color gradient
✓ Dynamic support/resistance zones
✓ Phase boundary definition via ribbon midpoint
Phase Detection
The indicator tracks three distinct market phases:
✓ VELOCITY BULLISH — Price confirmed above ribbon midpoint
✓ VELOCITY BEARISH — Price confirmed below ribbon midpoint
✓ EQUILIBRIUM — Price oscillating around midpoint without confirmation
Phase confirmation requires price to remain on one side of the ribbon for a user-defined number of bars (default: 2), preventing false signals from single-bar noise.
Market Pressure Index (MPI)
MPI quantifies the balance between buying and selling pressure within each bar by analyzing where price closes relative to its range, weighted by volume. This provides momentum context for phase transitions:
✓ Positive MPI confirms bullish pressure
✓ Negative MPI confirms bearish pressure
✓ Strong readings (above threshold) indicate conviction
Consensus Grading System
Each SHIFT signal receives a quality grade (A+, A, B, C) based on five factors:
✓ Phase Strength — EMA alignment plus MPI strength
✓ Trend Alignment — All EMAs properly stacked
✓ Volume Confirmation — Above-average participation
✓ Momentum Convergence — MPI confirms direction
✓ Structure Respect — Price at value area
Higher grades indicate stronger confluence and potentially higher-probability setups.
📊 VISUAL SYSTEM
SHIFT Labels
✓ ▲ SHIFT — Bullish phase flip detected
✓ ▼ SHIFT — Bearish phase flip detected
Labels appear at the exact bar where the phase transition occurs.
Entry Zones
When a qualified SHIFT fires, a colored box appears showing:
✓ Entry zone boundaries
✓ Signal direction (LONG/SHORT)
✓ Wick percentage that triggered the signal
✓ Quality grade
Dynamic Trade Management
THE SHIFT tracks three profit targets (T1, T2, T3) and stop levels with intelligent visual feedback:
✓ Target Lines — Display as dashed lines during active trade
✓ Target Hit — Line turns GREEN with "✓ T1/T2/T3" label
✓ Target Fade — Hit targets progressively fade and disappear after user-defined bars
✓ Stop Hit — Line turns RED with "❌ STOPPED OUT" label
This visual system keeps your chart clean while providing clear feedback on trade progress.
Background Shading
Subtle background color indicates current phase:
✓ Green tint — Bullish phase
✓ Red tint — Bearish phase
✓ Yellow tint — Equilibrium

📝 DEVELOPMENT NOTES
THE SHIFT emerged from extensive research into what makes reversal signals reliable versus unreliable. The key insight was that most failed reversals lack wick confirmation — the candle crosses a level but shows no evidence that the opposing force actually stepped in.
By requiring both the structural cross (price through ribbon midpoint) AND the wick confirmation (evidence of absorption), THE SHIFT filters out the low-quality signals that plague simpler crossover systems.
The intelligent Assistant panel was designed to function as a trading coach, helping traders understand not just WHEN to trade but WHY conditions are or aren't favorable. This educational component helps develop intuition over time.

Shadow Corp's MNQ Stop & Size HUD## MNQ Stop & Size HUD
### What It Does
This indicator tells you exactly how wide your stop-loss needs to be—and how many contracts to trade—based on real-time market volatility and your intended hold time.
No more guessing. No more getting wicked out by noise right before price moves your way.
---
### The Problem It Solves
You take a trade with a solid thesis. Price moves against you temporarily, tags your stop, then immediately rips in your original direction. Sound familiar?
This happens because most traders set stops based on arbitrary levels or fixed point values—not on what the market is actually doing right now.
This indicator uses proprietary volatility modeling calibrated on extensive MNQ tick data to calculate the stop distance that gives you the best chance of staying in your trade while noise plays out.
---
### What You See
A clean 3-line HUD in the corner of your chart:
| HORIZON | STOP | SIZE |
|---------|------|------|
| 15m | 38 pts | 6 ctr |
| 30m | 54 pts | 4 ctr |
- **15m**: Stop size for quick scalps and impulse plays
- **30m**: Stop size for rotations to the next level
- **SIZE**: Max contracts based on your risk budget
Updates every bar based on current conditions.
---
### How It Works
The indicator analyzes multiple layers of volatility:
1. **Real-time noise** — What's happening right now, bar by bar
2. **Recent baseline** — Yesterday's typical price action
3. **Historical context** — Multi-week behavioral patterns
4. **Daily regime detection** — Whether today is running hot, normal, or quiet
These inputs feed a proprietary model that outputs the stop distance calibrated to your chosen survival probability (70%, 80%, 90%, or 95%).
Higher survival % = wider stops = fewer noise stop-outs.
---
### How To Apply It
**Before you enter:**
1. Decide your hold time—15 minutes (scalp) or 30 minutes (rotation)
2. Look at the corresponding stop size
3. Use the **larger** of the HUD stop or your technical level (structure, VAL, swing)
4. The contract count is already sized to your risk budget
**Example:**
- You're targeting a rotation to VAH, expecting ~30 minute hold
- HUD shows 30m = 52 pts, 4 contracts
- Your technical stop (below the swing) is only 30 pts away
- Use 52 pts—because that's what the market needs to not wick you out
- 4 contracts × 52 pts × $2 = $416 risk (within your $500 budget)
**Go/No-Go Filter:**
If your target is closer than 1.5× the required stop, skip the trade. The R:R doesn't justify the risk.
---
### Requirements
- Run on **1-minute chart** (MNQ or NQ)
- Needs ~20 trading days of history to fully calibrate
- Set your risk budget in the inputs (default $500)
---
### What This Isn't
This isn't an entry signal. It doesn't tell you when to trade or which direction.
It tells you **how to structure the trade once you've decided to take it**—so you stop getting stopped out by noise on trades that would have worked.
ATR Volatility Impulse Candles (Bull & Bear)This indicator highlights unusually strong momentum candles using ATR as a volatility filter. Treyding Stocks was the inspiration behind this powerful swing indicator!
A candle is marked only when its body is larger than the Average True Range, meaning price moved farther than normal for that timeframe. This filters out noise and focuses attention on candles that often matter most.
Lime green candles represent strong bullish impulse. They occur when price closes above the open and the candle body is larger than ATR. These candles often show aggressive buying, late-stage momentum, or exhaustion before a reversal.
Blue candles represent strong bearish impulse. They occur when price closes below the open and the candle body is larger than ATR. These candles often signal aggressive selling, liquidation, stop runs, or breakdown confirmation.
The indicator includes alerts for both bullish and bearish impulse candles, allowing traders to monitor multiple charts without watching them constantly.
Traders commonly use this tool to identify momentum exhaustion, reversal zones, and high-impact candles near VWAP, key moving averages, or important price levels. It works on any timeframe, does not repaint, and is designed to keep the chart clean while highlighting only the most meaningful price moves.
The Red (Blue) candle is very useful for swings especially on the Daily chart
*When the Blue (RED) candle appears, mark the high/low, and enter when the next candle breaks /closes above it.

* **Engine B: OTT (Optimized Trend Tracker):** A faster, volatility-adaptive engine derived from VIDYA (Variable Index Dynamic Average). Best for Crypto and Scalping.
#### **2. Institutional Intelligence (SMC)**
* **Volumized Order Blocks (SMC):** Automatically detects Supply (Red Box) and Demand (Green Box) zones based on pivot volume.
* *Smart Filter:* The system will **BLOCK** Buy signals if price is running straight into a Bearish Order Block (Resistance).
* **Koncorde (Smart Money Flow):** Analyzes PVI (Positive Volume Index) vs. NVI (Negative Volume Index) to track "Sharks" (Institutions) vs. "Minnows" (Retail).
* *Smart Filter:* Signals are only generated if Institutional Money Flow supports the direction.
#### **3. The "Power 3" Confirmation Suite**
Includes optional filters for the classic trinity of technical analysis:
* **MACD:** Ensures momentum alignment.
* **Stochastic:** Prevents buying at overbought peaks.
* **Bollinger Bands:** Ensures trades only occur during volatility expansion (Squeeze breakout).
#### **4. Advanced Noise Filtering**
* **ADX Trend Strength:** Blocks signals during "dead" or choppy markets (ADX < 20).
* **Candle Stability Index:** Ignores "wicky" candles and indecision dojis, preventing fake-outs.
* **Trend Ribbon:** A dual-SMA cloud (21/34) that ensures you are always on the right side of the macro trend.
#### **5. Dynamic Risk Management (R:R)**
* Automatically calculates **Stop Loss** and **Take Profit** targets based on market volatility (ATR).
* **TP1 (1:1):** Secure profit / Move stops to breakeven.
* **TP2 (1:2):** Standard target.
* **TP3 (1:3):** Trend runner.
* *Visuals:* Draws clear entry, stop, and target lines on the chart when a trade is active.
#### **6. Pro Dashboard**
A dynamic panel that monitors:
* **Trend Status:** (Bullish/Bearish)
* **Market State:** (Trending/Parabolic/Ranging)
* **Smart Money:** (Accumulating/Distributing)
* **Live Trade Data:** Real-time entry price and targets when a position is open.

MEGA Sector Rotation CRYPTOCAP - 7 Narrativas 5m### MEGA Sector Rotation CRYPTOCAP - 7 Narratives
**Description for publishing on TradingView:**
This advanced indicator lets you visualize in real time the **rotation of narratives** within the crypto market through 7 key sectors, normalized for perfect side-by-side comparison.
Each line represents the **historical relative strength** (min-max normalization over 5000 bars) of a specific narrative, based on TradingView's official aggregated market caps (CRYPTOCAP) and custom sums. The lines oscillate between 0 and 100, with clear crossovers signaling when a sector is gaining or losing momentum relative to the others.
**The 7 narratives included:**
1. **Layer1** (pink) – Aggregated market cap of major Layer 1 blockchains.
2. **Memecoins** (bright green) – Official MEME.C sector (PEPE, SHIB, WIF, BONK, etc.).
3. **AI** (orange) – Artificial Intelligence and Big Data narrative.
4. **Exchanges** (purple) – Exchange tokens (centralized and decentralized).
5. **DeFi Total** (cyan) – Full aggregated market cap of the DeFi ecosystem.
6. **RWA Custom** (brown) – Custom sum of Real World Assets: ONDO + LINK + CFG + SYRUP.
7. **Privacy** (dark orange) – Custom sum of privacy coins: XMR + ZEC + DASH.
**Quick interpretation:**
- Line >80 and rising → Narrative is **HOT** (strong bullish rotation).
- Line <20 → Narrative is **COLD** (losing strength).
- Bullish crossovers → Money rotating into that sector.
- Transparent fills between lines to highlight leadership zones.
**Features:**
- Optimized for **lower timeframes** (5m, 15m, 1H, 4H) → ideal for day trading and scalping narratives.
- Works on any TF thanks to 5-minute resolution data.
- Thick lines, vibrant colors, and horizontal references (20/50/80) for instant reading.
Perfect for spotting early which narrative is attracting capital flows and anticipating sector moves in the crypto market.

Kaisen London Sweep Reversal (VALID) + MSS Close )Kaisen London Reversal – Liquidity & MSS Strategy
The Kaisen London Reversal indicator is designed to identify high-probability reversals after liquidity sweeps during the London session, using precise market structure confirmation and fixed risk parameters.
🔹 Core Logic
London Session Range
Automatically marks the London High and London Low built between 03:00 – 09:15 New York time.
Liquidity Sweep Filter
A setup is only valid if price takes the London High or Low.
Sweeps exceeding a predefined maximum distance are ignored to avoid trend continuation traps.
Market Structure Shift (MSS)
Entry is triggered only after a confirmed MSS, defined by a candle close back inside the London range, signaling a potential reversal.
Session-Based Execution
Trades are taken exclusively during the New York Open window (09:30 – 10:30 NY time) to ensure sufficient volatility and follow-through.
🔹 Trade Management
Stop Loss: Fixed at 40 points, designed to absorb post-sweep volatility.
Take Profit: Automatically set to the opposite side of the London range, targeting full mean reversion.
Risk Profile: Optimized for asymmetric R:R, allowing a single winning trade to offset multiple losses.
🔹 Visual Features
Clean horizontal lines for:
London High
London Low
Clearly defined TP and SL boxes using standard TradingView-style coloring:
Green for Take Profit
Red for Stop Loss
Minimalistic design focused on price action and structure, avoiding unnecessary clutter.
🔹 Best Use Case
Ideal for scalping and intraday traders
Optimized for lower timeframes (15s – 1m) where liquidity behavior and micro-structure are most visible
Particularly effective in prop firm environments, where drawdown control and high R-multiple trades are essential

Reversal StrategyWhat it is
A rules-based intraday reversal framework that combines: (1) higher-timeframe bias, (2) structural pivot logic, and (3) BOS confirmation inside a defined timing window.
How it works (high level)
Bias layer: Uses higher-timeframe OHLC to define directional context.
Structure engine: Identifies swing pivots to map structure objectively.
BOS validation: Triggers only after a confirmed break-of-structure (strictness configurable).
Timing window (“continuation/entry window”): Signals are restricted to specific windows to reduce random mid-session noise.
Risk visualization: Plots stop/target visualization from the model’s structure so the trade lifecycle is clear.
How to use
Best used during the most liquid session hours.
Keep defaults first; the BOS strictness and window timing materially change the signal distribution.
Not financial advice. Futures trading involves risk. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
