Liquidity StatusKey Points
The Liquidity Status (LS) indicator is designed to directly monitor liquidity conditions and determine if they are Bullish or Bearish.
If conditions are bullish, the candle is painted green (or whichever color is chosen by you to represent bullish liquidity) and the expected price action is up.
If conditions are bearish, the candle is painted red (or whichever color is chosen by you to represent bearish liquidity) and the expected price action is down.
LS allows you to monitor for when traders are absorbing or supplying liquidity and in which direction the liquidity is flowing.
LS works on equities, cryptocurrencies, forex, options data, and futures.
Summary
The Liquidity Status (LS) indicator measures liquidity directly without relying on bid/ask spreads, order-book information, or any other traditional means. The benefit of this non-traditional approach is a novel and unique way to interpret and analyze liquidity in the market.
LS is designed to be as straightforward as possible: when conditions are bullish then the outlook is bullish and the candles are painted the bullish color (default: green), and when conditions are bearish then the outlook is bearish and the candles are painted the bearish color (default: red).
This means the candles are not colored based on their price movements but rather based on their liquidity status.
Additionally, LS indicates Liquidity Flow (LF) as well. LF indicates where the source of liquidity is or is moving towards: either towards the Ask (if the Bid is requiring liquidity then the liquidity source becomes the Ask), or towards the Bid (if the Ask is requiring liquidity then the liquidity source becomes the Bid). This can be helpful in early identification of trend changes.
The default settings are designed to be streamlined but the Settings section below outlines how to add additional information and detail to your charts if desired.

Details
In the default settings, LS indicates if conditions are:
Bullish : meaning that current liquidity is bullish and so too are outlooks, or
Bearish: meaning that current liquidity is bearish and so too are outlooks.
There are additional data that are provided via LS, if toggled on (as described below). They include:
Aggressive Bid / Ask : This indicates that there is an aggressive trader present. Aggressive traders are large liquidity absorbers and are defined as having a sense of urgency in their trading that will cause them to go where-ever (whichever price) they can in order to transact. A classic Aggressive Bid, for instance, is a short-seller currently being squeezed.
Eager Bid / Ask : This indicates that there is an eager trader present. Eager traders are defined by their willingness to “cross the isle” in order to transact. For example, an eager bid will move to the ask in order to transact whereas an organic bid would not.
Organic Bid / Ask : This indicates that transactions are occurring at the organic traders. Organic traders are defined as having a large time-horizon and are value-seekers. For instance, an organic ask will likely move price up in order to sell high (the second part of buy low, sell high).
Additionally, LS indicates LF by specifying which party has the demand for liquidity and which has the supply for liquidity.
Flow to Ask : This indicates that the demand to transact is flowing to the ask (i.e.: the bid needs to transact more than the ask) and thus the ask is becoming the liquidity supplier.
Flow to Bid : This indicates that the demand to transact is flowing to the bid (i.e.: the ask needs to transact more than the bid) and thus the bid is becoming the liquidity supplier.
Neutral : No discernable difference in liquidity demand.
In combination, these signals can produce powerful measurements of underlying liquidity activity. For instance:
If LS indicates “At Organic Ask” and LF indicates “Flow to Ask” then this means that (1) transactions are predominantly occurring at or near the organic ask and (2) the organic ask is the dominate liquidity supplier. The consequence is likely substantial price appreciation (remember: the organic ask wants to sell high and now they are setting the terms and conditions of transacting!).
Example - How it started: transactions started to occur at the Organic Ask with Flow to Ask:
Example - How it ended:
Conversely, “At Organic Bid” and “Flow to Bid” indicates that transactions are predominantly occurring at or near the organic bid (who wants to buy low) and they the ones fulfilling the demand to transact coming from the ask. The expected outlook? Price depreciation as the organic bid lowers their orders to average down!
Example - How it started: transactions started to occur at Organic Bid with Flow to Bid:
Example - How it ended:
Lastly, LS (in combination with Liquidity Triggers) can identify moments of high-risk for bull and bear traps (see FAQ for details on how traps are found).
Example: Bear-Trap (with LT displayed)
Example: Bull-Trap (with LT displayed)
Customization
LS has many customization options available.
Sensitivity Mode
LS comes in a variety of sensitivities (for the nerds: adjusting the Sensitivity vs. Specificity), outlined below:
Aggressive : The Aggressive sensitivity mode puts LS in a state of hyper-awareness for anything that might indicate a change in overall liquidity status (i.e.: Bullish to Bearish or Bearish to Bullish) is underway. The benefit of the Aggressive mode is that it does not take much for LS to change its mind about current conditions. The trade-off, however, is increase in false alarms.
Balance : The balanced setting works to balance specificity (how right LS is) with sensitivity (how much chang it takes to convince LS to change its mind).
Conservative : The conservative setting is prone to change slower than both Aggressive and Balance but is intended to be more “certain” of the changes when they are indicated. This can lower the sensitivity (early entrances to trend-changes might be delayed slightly) in exchange for greater confidence in the future.
Diamond : This is the most specific and least sensitive option. Designed for when you only want LS to indicate a change with the strictest of criteria met.
Examples:
Aggressive LS:
Balanced LS:
Conservative LS:
Diamond LS:
LS Detail Amount
Controls how much detail and information you want displayed.
Simplified : Keeps messaging straightforward: Bearish or Bullish.
Full : Parsing the data for greater detail about if conditions are Strong or Weak. Produces candles and text output.
LS Reporting Style
Interpretive : Text output from LS is kept as either Bullish or Bearish.
Declarative : Additional information regarding if the transactions are being performed by an Aggressive, Eager or Organic trader.
LS Candle Replacement
In order to have LS produce candles colored by liquidity, the `LS Candle Replacement` option must be selected, along with deselecting the charts candle-making by going to Settings -> Symbol and de-selecting `Body`, `Border`, and `Wick`.
Otherwise, LS’ colors will be over-ridden by the chart.
Alerts
LS comes with several alerts to help keep track of changing liquidity conditions in the market. They include:
Is Bullish / Bearish : fires at the start of the candle if conditions are bullish/bearish.
Has Become Bullish / Bearish : Fires at the end of the candle if conditions have swapped (as compared to the previous candle).
Flow is to Ask / Bid : Fires at the start of the candle to indicate which direction liquidity is flowing via LF.
Flow Switch to Bid / Ask : Fires if there is a change in the LF from one to the other.
Suspected Bear Trap : Fires if a bear trap is detected.
Suspected Bear Trap Ended : Fires if an on-going bear-trap has ended.
Suspected Bull Trap : Fires if a bull trap is detected.
Suspected Bull Trap Ended : Fires if an on-going bull-trap has ended.
Frequently Asked Questions
How can I get access to LS?
Please see the Author’s Instructions for more information.
Where can I get more information on LS?
Please see the Author’s Instructions for more information.
I tried to add LS to my chart but nothing is showing.
That’s no good! Be sure that the indicator hasn’t errored out (if there is a small red dot next to its name then it has errored out). If it has, then try re-applying the indicator to your chart.
If there is no error indicated, and you still do not see anything it may be likely that the requested symbol either:
Doesn’t have sufficient data to calculate LS on, or
Lacks the data for LS to be calculated completed.
To check, try using LS on a smaller interval. If LS starts to populate, it is likely that the needed data is present but just not enough for the timeframe you were interested in. If there is no LS even when moving to lower intervals, then it may be that the specified underlying lacks the required data.
How come LS is saying things are Bearish but price is going up?
Sometimes that can happen! But until LS indicates bullish liquidity, the expectation is that price will fall back down.
How come LS is saying things are Bullish but price is going down?
Sometimes that can happen! But until LS indicates bearish liquidity, the expectation is that price will recover and continue moving on upwards.
How do you locate Bear and Bull traps?
LS has LT (Liquidity Triggers) baked into it for alerts and uses LT to compare expected conditions with real conditions. If LS and LT are mismatched then a trap is detected. The LT conditions checked are:
If LT is in a bull-stack : that means LT(144) > LT(377) > LT(610), or
If LT is in a bear-stack : that means LT(610) < LT(377) < LT(144)
Then once the stack is determined, if LS disagrees:
LS is indicating Bullish while LT is in a bear-stack, or
LS is indicating Bearish while LT is in a bull-stack
Then the alert is triggered (based off of LT’s orientation). This means:
If conditions are Bullish but LT is showing a Bearish stack, then a Bull Trap is detected, and
If conditions are Bearish but LT is showing a Bullish Stack, then a Bear Trap is detected.
I have questions and maybe a bug!
Please reach out and report! Please refer to the Author’s Instructions for more information on how to reach out.
Does LS get updates?
Yup! Improvements come relatively frequently and if you have any suggestions for improvements, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
Volatility
Liquidity TriggersKey Points
Liquidity Triggers indicate:
Where liquidity-derived support levels are.
Where liquidity-derived resistance levels are.
When a large price increase is approaching via the Rip Currents .
- When a large price decrease is approaching via the Dip Currents .
Summary
Liquidity Triggers are produced by measuring liquidity and determining where supportive liquidity and resistance-liquidity are. These trigger-levels designate price-points where breakouts, breakthroughs, and bounces are anticipated.
Liquidity Triggers are dynamic, and they constantly re-evaluate liquidity conditions to determine where the next group of sellers or buyers are that can fuel rapid changes in price movement, such as initiating a trend change or stalling price-action completely.
To use, simply apply to your chart and monitor for Supportive Liquidity Triggers (LTs that are below price) for bounces, and Resistance Liquidity Triggers (LTs that are above price) for rejections.
You can also set Alerts designed specifically around the Liquidity Triggers.
Examples
Example 1: A quick look at LT Resistances and Supports. When a LT is above spot, then it is considered a resistance. When LT is below spot, it is considered a support.
Example 2: LTs can indicate to us when an upcoming Rip Current (large price appreciation) or a Dip Current (large price depreciation) is starting.
Here is an example of a Rip Current:
And here is a Dip Current:
Details
Liquidity Triggers come with a default load-out that utilizes several pre-configured settings for quick and easy start-up.
Triggers
The default triggers are labeled LT-1 through LT-7, these correspond ` orders ` that describe which type of liquidity is monitored. The two groups of traders that are monitored are the ` Eager ` and the ` Organic `.
The default triggers use the Fibonacci sequence to adjust their orders in a standardized way.
Triggers 1, 2, 3, and 4 monitor the ` Eager ` traders (with default settings) while triggers 5, 6, and 7 monitor the ` Organic `traders.
Eager Triggers represent profit-takers and dip-buyers .
When the Eager Triggers are above the price, they are ` selling the rip `, and when the Eager Triggers are below price, they are ` buying the dip `. These moments indicate growing pressure for a reversal. Eager triggers are any trigger with an order of 89 or less .
Organic Triggers represent value-seekers with long-term goals. When they are below price, they are areas of support and tend to fuel bounces, while when organic triggers that are above price are areas of resistance and often provoke rejections. Organic triggers are any trigger with an order of 90 or more .
Here's an example showing the faint eager liquidity triggers above spot, indicating profit-taking and below spot after a price-dip indicating dip-buying .
Customization
There are additional settings and configurations available to the Liquidity Triggers indicator that help customize your view of liquidity.
Smoothing
Smoothing can be applied to the triggers for a more peaceful showing. The smoothing options are:
None - Default.
Exponential-Moving Average (EMA) : Ideal for when you want the most recent activity to take higher priority.
Simple-Moving Average (SMA) : Ideal for when you want a smoother appearance but do not want to change the data too much.
Weighted-Moving Average (WMA): Ideal for when you want the smoothing to increase as the trigger order increases.
Modified-Moving Average (RMA): Produces the most smooth data.
Here is an example of how smoothing can change the appearance of LTs for easier analysis for when things get complicated:
Modifying the Default Load-out
The default loadout attempts to balance having a wide view of the data without bringing too many lines or values into the picture that might be too noisy, but these values can be added to customize and expand your view if desired.
The Fib load-out has the options with t he default load-out being .
Feel free to mix and match and explore which views you prefer when analyzing liquidity.
For example, for the extreme data-heads, you can add LDPM twice on the chart to get all of the orders displayed at once:
Liquidity Triggers - Granular Triggers
The granular trigger can be toggled on (default: off) for when candle-specific liquidity measurements desired. They can help identify which specific candles have eager and aggressive traders attempting to move spot: the further away the granular trigger is from the candle, the more force is being applied!
Manual LTs
If you’re not satisfied with the default options for triggers, you can set your own with the Manual Liquidity Triggers option.
Time-Based LTs
Time-based liquidity triggers give you a view of support and resistance triggers based off of the time chosen, rather than by an order. This allows you to construct “weekly Liquidity-Triggers” or “hourly Liquidity Triggers” to analyze and compare against.
Note: If the timeframes are too far apart, you might get an error. For instance, putting a 1-week reference LT onto a 30-second chart may not work.
Liquidity-Triggers Data-Table
With the `Display Liquidity Trigger Statuses and Values` option, you can place a data-table on the chart that will display the time-based triggers, their values, and if they are above (bearish) or below (bullish) spot.
Alerts
When you set alerts, you can determine which order is used for determining `Is bullish`, `Is Bearish`, `Has Become Bullish`, `Has Become Bearish` alerts in the LT Alert Order setting.
Several LT alerts are available to set:
Is Bullish / Bearish: these are designed to analyze conditions at the end of the candle and if spot is above the alert-trigger, then an alert is sent out that conditions are bullish, and if spot is below the alert-trigger, then an alert is sent out if conditions are bearish.
Has Become Bullish / Bearish: designed to analyze conditions at the start of a candle and determine if a change has occurred (a LT cross-over).
Suspected Rip Current: these are designed to alert you when a suspected upwards rip in price is underway, as characterized by all LT triggers moving rapidly down away from spot.
Suspected Dip Current: these are designed to alert you when a suspected downwards rip in price is underway, as characterized by all LT triggers moving rapidly up and above, away from spot.
These alerts can then be put into a webhook for external processing if desired.
Frequently Asked Questions
How can I gain access to LT?
Check out the Author's Instructions section below.
Where can I get more information?
Check out the Author's Instructions section below for how to obtain more information.
I tried to add LT to my chart but it produced an error.
Sometimes this happens but no worries. Just change the chart's interval to a different time and then back, the indicator should re-load. If that fails, try removing it completely and re-applying it.
Is it normal for LTs to have different values on different timeframes?
Yup! Think of each time-interval as a different "zoom" of the market. Imagine you are taking a picture of the ocean to figure out the direction of water movement. If you take the picture from space, you will see big general trends but if you take the photo from your boat in the harbor, you're going to get specific data about that area. That's how LT works!
The view of the liquidity depends on the "zoom-age" (the chart's interval) used when taking the photo.
I think there is an issue with the alerts - what should I do?
This is not ideal! If this happens, please reach out via the contact information in the Author's Instructions section below with the following details:
What symbol?
What timeframe?
Which alert?
When did the alert occur?
Can I attach the alerts to webhooks?
Yup! Be sure to check out TV's guide on webhooks ( T.V. Guide to Alerts ) for how to get started.
Does LT receive updates?
Yup! If a bug or issue is found, an update is pushed out. You will be notified when this occurs and it is highly recommended that you replace all charts with LT on them with the new version as the updates go out.

Williams Alligator Spread Oscillator (WASO)Short description (About box)
Williams Alligator Spread Oscillator (WASO) converts Bill Williams’ Alligator into a 0–100 oscillator that measures the average distance between Lips/Teeth/Jaw relative to ATR. High = expansion/trend (default), low = compression/range — making sideways markets easier to spot. Includes adaptive normalization, configurable thresholds, background shading, and alerts.
Full description (Description field)
What it does
The Williams Alligator Spread Oscillator (WASO) transforms Bill Williams’ Alligator into a single, adaptive 0–100 scale. It computes the average pairwise distance among the Alligator lines (Lips/Teeth/Jaw), normalizes it by ATR and a rolling min–max window, and smooths the result. This makes the signal robust across symbols and timeframes and explicitly improves detection of sideways (ranging) conditions by highlighting compression regimes.
Why it helps
Sideways detection made easier: Low WASO marks compressed regimes that commonly align with consolidation/range phases, helping you identify chop and plan breakout strategies.
Trend/expansion clarity: High WASO indicates the Alligator lines are widening relative to volatility, pointing to trending or expanding conditions.
You can flip the direction if you prefer “High = Range.”
How it is calculated (plain English)
Smooth price with RMA (SMMA-like) to get Jaw, Teeth, Lips.
Compute the average pairwise distance between these three lines.
Divide by ATR to remove price-scale effects.
Normalize with a rolling min–max window to map values to 0–100.
Optionally apply EMA smoothing to the oscillator.
Key settings
Jaw/Teeth/Lips Lengths: Alligator periods (SMMA-like via ta.rma).
ATR Length: Volatility benchmark for scaling.
Normalization Lookback: Longer = steadier; shorter = more responsive.
Smoothing (EMA): Evens out noise.
High Value = Large Spread (Trend): Toggle to invert semantics.
Upper/Lower Thresholds: 70/30 are practical starting points.
Signals / interpretation
Sideways / Compression (easier to spot):
Default direction: WASO below Lower Threshold (e.g., <30).
With inverted direction OFF: WASO above Upper Threshold (e.g., >70).
Trend / Expansion:
Default direction: WASO above Upper Threshold (e.g., >70).
With inverted direction OFF: WASO below Lower Threshold (e.g., <30).
Midline (50): Neutral zone; flips around 50 can hint at regime shifts.
Alerts included
Range Start (sideways/compression)
Trend Start (expansion/trend)
Notes & limitations
This implementation omits the classic forward shift of Alligator lines to keep signals usable on live bars.
If market behavior shifts (very quiet or very volatile), tune Lookback and ATR Length.
Combine WASO with breakout levels or momentum filters for entries/exits.

Liquidity Hunter 🎯🎯 Welcome to Liquidity Hunter!
This isn't just another indicator that draws lines on your chart. It's a comprehensive tool designed to help you see the market's structure by identifying key liquidity pools where stop-loss and pending orders are likely to be clustered. Price is often drawn to these levels, and understanding where they are can give you a significant edge in your trading.
💡 What is Liquidity?
In simple terms, liquidity refers to areas on the chart where a significant amount of trading activity is expected. These are often found:
Above old highs ( buy-side liquidity )
Below old lows ( sell-side liquidity )
When price revisits these areas, it can trigger a cascade of orders, leading to significant and rapid price movements. This indicator helps you anticipate these moves before they happen.
✨ Core Features
This indicator is packed with features to provide a complete liquidity analysis:
Multi-Type Liquidity Detection: Identifies and plots various types of liquidity:
Structural: Swing Highs/Lows (S-H, S-L) and Equal Highs/Lows (EQH, EQL).
Time-Based: Previous Day, Week, and Month Highs/Lows (PDH/L, PWH/L, PMH/L).
Session-Based: Highs and Lows of the Asia, London, and New York sessions.
Volume-Based Strength Analysis: Not all levels are equal. The indicator analyzes the volume at the creation of a swing point. A High-Strength level (marked with a ⭐) was formed with significant market participation, making it a more reliable point of interest.
Sweep vs. Break Intelligence: It intelligently distinguishes between a liquidity sweep (price wicks through a level and reverses) and a structural break (price closes firmly beyond the level), helping you understand market intention. Optional symbols (💰 for sweep, ▶ for break) can mark these events.
Advanced EQL/EQH Visualization: The new detection method visually connects equal highs or lows with a dotted line, making these obvious targets easy to spot without hiding the original swing points that form them.
Session & Killzone Visuals: Visualize the Asian, London, and New York trading sessions and their high-probability "Killzones" directly on your chart to better time your entries and understand the market context.
At-a-Glance Dashboard: The customizable on-screen dashboard keeps you informed of the nearest bullish and bearish liquidity targets, their distance from the current price, and their strength.
🚀 How To Use It
Here are a few ways you can incorporate Liquidity Hunter into your trading strategy:
As Targets: Use the plotted levels as potential take-profit targets. If you're in a long position, a nearby bearish liquidity level (e.g., an old Swing High) could be a logical place to exit.
As Entry Zones: Wait for price to react at these key levels. A common strategy is to look for a sweep of a key low (a "stop hunt") followed by a strong bullish candle, which can signal a high-probability long entry.
For Confluence: Combine the liquidity levels with your existing strategy. For example, if a high-strength swing low aligns with a key Fibonacci level or a moving average, it becomes a much stronger support zone.
To Gauge Momentum: The optional Trend Momentum Analysis looks at the volume of consecutive high-strength swings. A new high-strength high forming with more volume than the last one (📈) can indicate strengthening bullish momentum.
⚙️ Customization
Dive into the settings to fully customize the indicator to your liking. You can:
Toggle different liquidity types on or off.
Adjust the pivot lookback period to suit your trading style.
Define your exact session times (in your chosen timezone!).
Change all colors and styles to match your chart theme perfectly.

Smoothed Kama MAD Bands | OquantOverview
The Smoothed KAMA MAD Bands indicator is an tool designed to help traders identify potential trend directions while incorporating volatility-based boundaries. It builds on the Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA) concept by adding a smoothing layer and pairing it with Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) bands to create dynamic bands. This combination aims to filter noise in ranging markets and highlight momentum shifts, with built-in position signals for long or short allocations. Additionally, it calculates key performance metrics to compare the indicator's historical behavior against a simple buy-and-hold approach(Remember past performance doesn’t guarantee future results).
Key Factors/Components
Smoothed KAMA: An adaptive moving average that adjusts its sensitivity based on market efficiency, smoothed further to reduce whipsaws.
MAD Bands: Volatility bands derived from the mean absolute deviation, multiplied by a user-defined factor to set upper and lower boundaries around the smoothed KAMA.
Position Allocation: Generates long (above upper band) or short (below lower band) signals, with options to disable longs or shorts to default to cash.
Built-in Alerts: Set Alerts for bullish(price above upper band) and bearish(price below lower band) signals.
Performance Metrics: Includes tables displaying metrics like maximum drawdown, intra-trade max drawdown, Sharpe ratio, Sortino ratio, Omega ratio, percent profitable, profit factor, total trades, and net profit for the indicator's equity curve. A separate table shows buy-and-hold metrics for the underlying asset(Remember past performance doesn’t guarantee future results).
Equity Curve Plot: Optional plotting of the strategy's simulated equity curve for visual assessment.
How It Works
The core logic starts by calculating an efficiency ratio to determine market trendiness versus choppiness, which informs the adaptive speed of the KAMA. This KAMA is then smoothed using an exponential moving average to enhance stability. Separately, MAD(mean absolute deviation) is computed, then scaled by a multiplier to form bands around the smoothed KAMA. Crosses above the upper band suggest upward momentum (long allocation), while crosses below the lower band indicate downward momentum (short allocation). Metrics are derived from a simulated equity curve based on these allocations, tracking returns, risks, and efficiency ratios over the specified period(Remember past performance doesn’t guarantee future results).
For Who It Is Best/Recommended Use Cases
This indicator is best suited for trend-following traders or those managing strategies on crypto markets. It's recommended for users who want to evaluate trend signals with volatility-adjusted bands and backtest metrics to inform their decision-making process(Remember past performance doesn’t guarantee future results). Ideal for traders comfortable with adaptive averages, particularly in markets where noise reduction can help avoid false signals.
Settings and Default Settings
Start Date: Defines the beginning of the calculation period and backtest metrics (default: 1 Jan 2018).
Efficiency Length: Period for efficiency ratio calculation (default: 10).
KAMA Fast Length: Shorter period for adaptive calculation (default: 2).
KAMA Slow Length: Longer period for adaptive calculation (default: 30).
KAMA Smoothing Length: Smoothing period for the final KAMA (default: 10).
MAD Length: Period for mean absolute deviation (default: 20).
Band Multiplier: Scaling factor for bands (default: 1.6).
Allow Long Trades: Enables/disables long positions (default: true).
Allow Shorts: Enables/disables short positions (default: false).
Show Indicator Metrics Table: Displays performance table (default: true).
Show Buy&Hold Table: Displays asset benchmark table (default: true).
Plot Equity Curve: Shows simulated equity line (default: false).
These defaults are tuned for general use on daily charts but should be adjusted based on the asset and timeframe.
Conclusion
By integrating a smoothed adaptive moving average with deviation-based bands and comprehensive metrics, this indicator offers a structured way to assess trends and historical performance(Remember past performance doesn’t guarantee future results). It encourages informed trading by highlighting both signals and risk factors(Remember past performance doesn’t guarantee future results), helping users align it with their strategies.

FirstStrike Long 200 - Daily Trend Rider [KedArc Quant]Strategy Description
FirstStrike Long 200 is a disciplined, long-only momentum strategy designed for daily "strike-first" entries in trending markets. It scans for RSI momentum above a customizable trigger (default 50), confirmed by EMA trend filters, and limits you to *exactly one trade per day* to avoid overtrading. It uses ATR for dynamic risk management (1.5x stop, 2:1 RR target) and optional trailing stops to ride winners. Backtested with realistic commissions and sizing, it prioritizes low drawdowns (<1% max in tests) over aggressive gains—ideal for swing traders seeking quality setups in bull runs.
Why It's Different from Other Strategies
Unlike generic RSI crossover bots or EMA ribbon mashups that spam signals and bleed in chop, FirstStrike enforces a "one-and-done" daily gate, blending precision momentum (RSI modes with grace/sustain) with robust filters (volume, sessions, rearm dips).
How It Helps Traders
- Reduces Emotional Trading: One entry/day forces discipline—miss a setup? Wait for tomorrow. Perfect for busy pros avoiding screen fatigue.
- Adapts to Regimes: Switch modes for trends ("Cross+Grace") vs. ranges ("Any bar")—boosts win rates 5-10% in backtests on high-beta names like .
- Risk-First Design: ATR scales stops to vol capping DD at 0.2% while targeting 2R winners. Trailing option locks +3-5% runs without early exits.
- Quick Insights: Labels/alerts flag entries with RSI values; bgcolor highlights signals for visual scanning. Helps spot "first-strike" edges in uptrends, filtering ~60% noise.
Why This Is Not a Mashup
This isn't a Frankenstein of off-the-shelf indicators—while it uses standard RSI/EMA/ATR (core Pine primitives), the innovation lies in:
- Custom Trigger Engine: Switchable modes (e.g., "Cross+Grace+Sustain" requires post-cross hold) prevent perpetual signals, unlike basic `ta.crossover()`.
- Daily Rearm Gate: Resets eligibility only after a dip (if enabled), tying momentum to mean-reversion—original logic not found in common scripts.
- Per-Day Isolation: `var` vars + `ta.change(time("D"))` ensure zero pyramiding/overlaps, beyond simple session filters.
All formulae are derived in-house for "first-strike" (early RSI pops in trends), not copied from public repos.
Input Configurations
Let's break down every input in the FirstStrike Long 200 strategy. These settings let you tweak the strategy like a dashboard—start with defaults for quick testing,
then adjust based on your asset or timeframe (5m for intraday). They're grouped logically to keep things organized, and most have tooltips in the script for quick reminders.
RSI / Trigger Group: The Heart of Momentum Detection
This is where the magic starts—the strategy hunts for "upward energy" using RSI (Relative Strength Index), a tool that measures if a stock is overbought (too hot) or oversold (too cold) on a 0-100 scale.
- RSI Length: How many bars (candles) back to calculate RSI. Default is 14, like a 14-day window for daily charts. Shorter (e.g., 9) makes it snappier for fast markets; longer (21) smooths out noise but misses quick turns.
- Trigger Level (RSI >= this): The key RSI value where the strategy says, "Go time!" Default 50 means enter when RSI crosses or holds above the neutral midline. Why is this trigger required? It acts as your "green light" filter—without it, you'd enter on every tiny price wiggle, leading to endless losers. RSI above this shows building buyer power, avoiding weak or sideways moves. It's essential for quality over quantity, especially in one-trade-per-day setups.
- Trigger Mode: Picks how strict the RSI signal must be. Options: "Cross only" (exact RSI crossover above trigger—super precise, fewer trades); "Cross+Grace" (crossover or within a grace window after—gives a second chance); "Cross+Grace+Sustain" (crossover/grace plus RSI holding steady for bars—best for steady climbs); "Any bar >= trigger" (looser, any bar above—more opportunities but riskier in chop). Start with "Any bar" for trends, switch to "Cross only" for caution.
- Grace Window (bars after cross): If mode allows, how many bars post-RSI-cross you can still enter if RSI dips but recovers. Default 30 (about 2.5 hours on 5m). Zero means no wiggle room—pure precision.
- Sustain Bars (RSI >= trigger): In sustain mode, how many straight bars RSI must stay above trigger. Default 3 ensures it's not a fluke spike.
- Require RSI Dip Below Rearm Before Any Entry?: A yes/no toggle. If on, the strategy "rearms" only after RSI dips below a low level (like a breather), preventing back-to-back signals in overextended rallies.
- Rearm Level (if requireDip=true): The dip threshold for rearming. Default 45—RSI must go below this to reset eligibility. Lower (30) for deeper pullbacks in volatile stocks.
For the trigger level itself, presets matter a lot—default 50 is neutral and versatile for broad trends. Bump to 55-60 for "strong momentum only" (fewer but higher-win trades, great in bull runs like tech surges); drop to 40-45 for "early bird" catches in recoveries (more signals but watch for fakes in ranges). The optimize hint (40-60) lets you test these in TradingView to match your risk—higher presets cut noise by 20-30% in backtests.
Trend / Filters Group: Keeping You on the Right Side of the Market
These EMAs (Exponential Moving Averages) act like guardrails, ensuring you only long in uptrends.
- EMA (Fast) Confirmation: Short-term EMA for price action. Default 20 periods—price must be above this for "recent strength." Shorter (10) reacts faster to intraday pops.
- EMA (Trend Filter): Long-term EMA for big-picture trend. Default 200 (classic "above the 200-day" rule)—price above it confirms bull market. Minimum 50 to avoid over-smoothing.
Optional Hour Window Group: Timing Your Strikes
Avoid bad hours like lunch lulls or after-hours tricks.
- Restrict by Session?: Yes/no for using exact market hours. Default off.
- Session (e.g., 0930-1600 for NYSE): Time string like "0930-1600" for open to close. Auto-skips pre/post-market noise.
- Restrict by Hour Range?: Fallback yes/no for simple hours. Default off.
- Start Hour / End Hour: Clock times (0-23). Defaults 9-15 ET—focus on peak volume.
Volume Filter Group: No Volume, No Party
Confirms conviction—big moves need big participation.
- Require Volume > SMA?: Yes/no toggle. Default off—only fires on above-average volume.
- Volume SMA Length: Periods for the average. Default 20—compares current bar to recent norm.
Risk / Exits Group: Protecting and Profiting Smartly
Dynamic stops based on volatility (ATR = Average True Range) keep things realistic.
- ATR Length: Bars for ATR calc. Default 14—measures recent "wiggle room" in price.
- ATR Stop Multiplier: How far below entry for stop-loss. Default 1.5x ATR—gives breathing space without huge risk
- Take-Profit R Multiple: Reward target as multiple of risk. Default 2.0 (2:1 ratio)—aims for twice your stop distance.
- Use Trailing Stop?: Yes/no for profit-locking trail. Default off—activates after entry.
- Trailing ATR Multiplier: Trail distance. Default 2.0x ATR—looser than initial stop to let winners run.
These inputs make the strategy plug-and-play: Defaults work out-of-box for trending stocks, but tweak RSI trigger/modes first for your style.
Always backtest changes—small shifts can flip a 40% win rate to 50%+!
Outputs (Visuals & Alerts):
- Plots: Blue EMA200 (trend line), Orange EMA20 (price filter), Green dashed entry price.
- Labels: Green "LONG" arrow with RSI value on entries.
- Background: Light green highlight on signal bars.
- Alerts: "FirstStrike Long Entry" fires on conditions (integrates with TradingView notifications).
Entry-Exit Logic
Entry (Long Only, One Per Day):
1. Daily Reset: New day clears trade gate and (if required) rearm status.
2. Filters Pass: Time/session OK + Close > EMA200 (trend) + Close > EMA20 (price) + Volume > SMA (if enabled) + Rearmed (dip below rearm if toggled).
3. Trigger Fires: RSI >= trigger via selected mode (e.g., crossover + grace window).
4. Execute: Enter long at close; set daily flag to block repeats.
Exit:
- Stop-Loss: Entry - (ATR * 1.5) – dynamic, vol-scaled.
- Take-Profit: Entry + (Risk * 2.0) – fixed RR.
- Trailing (Optional): Activates post-entry; trails at Close - (ATR * 2.0), updating on each bar for trend extension.
No shorts or hedging—pure long bias.
Formulae Used
- RSI: `ta.rsi(close, rsiLen)` – Standard 14-period momentum oscillator (0-100).
- EMAs: `ta.ema(close, len)` – Exponential moving averages for trend/price filters.
- ATR: `ta.atr(atrLen)` – True range average for stop sizing: Stop = Entry - (ATR * mult).
- Volume SMA: `ta.sma(volume, volLen)` – Simple average for relative strength filter.
- Grace Window: `bar_index - lastCrossBarIndex <= graceBars` – Counts bars since RSI crossover.
- Sustain: `ta.barssince(rsi < trigger) >= sustainBars` – Consecutive bars above threshold.
- Session Check: `time(timeframe.period, sessionStr) != 0` – TradingView's built-in session validator.
- Risk Distance: `riskPS = entry - stop; TP = entry + (riskPS * RR)` – Asymmetric reward calc.
FAQ
Q: Why only one trade/day?
A: Prevents revenge trading in volatile sessions . Backtests show it cuts losers by 20-30% vs. multi-entry bots.
Q: Does it work on all assets/timeframes?
A: Best for trending stocks/indices on 5m-1H. Test on crypto/forex with wider ATR mult (2.0+).
Q: How to optimize?
A: Use TradingView's optimizer on RSI trigger (40-60) and EMA fast (10-30). Aim for PF >1.0 over 1Y data.
Q: Alerts don't fire—why?
A: Ensure `alertcondition` is enabled in script settings. Test with "Any alert() function calls only."
Q: Trailing stop too loose?
A: Tune `trailMult` to 1.5 for tighter; it activates alongside fixed TP/SL for hybrid protection.
Glossary
- Grace Window: Post-RSI-cross period (bars) where entry still allowed if RSI holds trigger.
- Rearm Dip: Optional pullback below a low RSI level (e.g., 45) to "reset" eligibility after signals.
- Profit Factor (PF): Gross profit / gross loss—>1.0 means winners outweigh losers.
- R Multiple: Risk units (e.g., 2R = 2x stop distance as target).
- Sustain Bars: Consecutive bars RSI stays >= trigger for mode confirmation.
Recommendations
- Backtest First: Run on your symbols (/) over 6-12M; tweak RSI to 55 for +5% win rate.
- Live Use: Start paper trading with `useSession=true` and `useVol=true` to filter noise.
- Pairs Well With: Higher TF (daily) for bias; add ADX (>25) filter for strong trends (code snippet in prior chats).
- Risk Note: 10% sizing suits $100k+ accounts; scale down for smaller. Not financial advice—past performance ≠ future.
- Publish Tip: Add tags like "momentum," "RSI," "long-only" on TradingView for visibility.

Quant Trend + Donchian (Educational, Public-Safe)What this does
Educational, public-safe visualization of a quant regime model:
• Trend : EMA(64) vs EMA(256) (EWMAC proxy)
• Breakout : Donchian channel (200)
• Volatility-awareness : internal z-scores (not plotted) for concept clarity
Why it’s useful
• Shows when trend & breakout align (clean regimes) vs conflict (chop)
• Helps explain why volatility-aware systems size up in smooth trends and scale down in noise
How to read it
• EMA64 above EMA256 with price near/above Donchian high → trend-following alignment
• EMA64 below EMA256 with price near/below Donchian low → bearish alignment
• Inside channel with EMAs tangled → range/chop risk
Notes
• Indicator is educational only (no orders).
• Built entirely with TradingView built-ins.
• For consistent visuals: enable “Indicator values on price scale” and disable “Scale price chart only” in Settings → Scales .
MACD-V+ (ATR Normalized MACD)MACD-V+ is an ATR-normalized MACD tool that focuses on true turning points inside Overbought/Oversold zones. It marks a signal only when the MACD’s slope changes direction and shows real progress back toward the zero line, with an optional dwell (depth & time) filter so you don’t get faked out by shallow pokes into a zone. Clean visuals, “first-in-zone” gating, and configurable labeling make it practical for discretionary and systematic traders alike.
For best results, adjust Overbought and Oversold levels based on stock volatility. The default settings of 150 and -150 are for highly volatile tickers. Reduce for less volatile tickers.

OPR 4 ZonesThe OPR 4-Zone Boxes indicator visualizes four distinct market sessions on your chart by automatically drawing boxed ranges (high / low) and dotted midlines for each session. Each session box is created using time-based timestamps (timezone-aware) and updates in real time during the session. When the session closes, the box is locked to the session end, while an optional extension can display the session range for a configurable period afterward — useful for spotting retests, breakouts, and bias zones.
Designed for traders who rely on session structure and price-action, OPR 4-Zone provides clear, non-intrusive visuals and is fully configurable: enable or disable individual sessions, set start/end and extension times per session, choose colors and transparency for both the primary box and the extension, and display dotted midlines to quickly gauge session control. Objects are cleaned up at the start of each new day to prevent clutter and ensure reliable behavior when scrolling or changing timeframes.
Key features :
- Four independent session boxes (Morning, Afternoon, Evening, Night) with separate enable switches
- Timezone-aware timestamping so boxes align with the session times you want
- Locked session ranges at session close and optional extension period after close
- Dotted midline for quick reference to the session midpoint
- Customizable colors and background transparency for both base and extended boxes
- Automatic cleanup of session objects on new trading day to avoid frozen or stray boxes
- Lightweight and overlay-friendly with sensible defaults for fast setup
Suggested usage :
Use the indicator to mark session ranges for intraday support/resistance, identify where price is trading relative to session midpoint, and watch for breakout or rejection setups near session highs/lows. Combine with volume-based or momentum indicators to confirm breakouts through the session box.
ADR% / CDR% Range Analyzer - PajameinThe "ADR%/CDR% Range Analyzer" is a versatile TradingView indicator designed for traders who want to monitor and compare the "Average Daily Range (ADR%)" and "Current Daily Range (CDR%)" in real-time. ADR% represents the average percentage range (high-low relative to low) over a user-defined number of daily bars, helping you gauge a stock's typical volatility. CDR% shows the current session's range as a percentage, either intraday (customizable from start to end price) or full daily, allowing you to assess how the current bar's movement stacks up against historical norms.
Key features include:
- "Visual Comparison": Displays both values as clean labels on the chart with customizable positions (separate or combined).
- "Dynamic Background Coloring": CDR% label background changes color based on its relation to ADR%—light green for low volatility (< low threshold), light blue for neutral (between thresholds), and light red for high volatility (> high threshold). This helps quickly spot expansion or contraction in daily moves.
- "Flexibility": Works on any timeframe, with options for intraday customization and anti-clipping adjustments for multi-pane layouts.
This indicator is ideal for day traders, swing traders, or anyone tracking volatility breakouts, range-bound setups, or risk management based on expected daily moves.
Input Settings Guide
Here's a breakdown of each setting and how it enhances your trading workflow:
- "Show ADR%" (Boolean, default: true)
Toggle to display/hide the ADR% label. Use this to declutter your chart when focusing solely on current range.
- "Show CDR%" (Boolean, default: true)
Toggle to display/hide the CDR% label. Ideal for charts where you only need historical average or current metrics.
- "ADR% Length" (Integer, default: 20, min: 1)
Number of daily bars for averaging the range percentage. Shorter lengths (e.g., 10) for recent volatility; longer (e.g., 50) for broader trends.
- "CDR%: Start" (Source, default: low)
Starting price for intraday CDR% (e.g., open, previous close). Customize for specific range measurements like gap fills.
- "CDR%: End" (Source, default: high)
Ending price for intraday CDR% (e.g., low, close). Pair with Start for targeted ranges, like open-to-low for downside capture.
- "Intraday Display" (String dropdown: "Intraday CDR%", "Daily CDR%", default: "Daily CDR%")
Switch between real-time intraday calculation (dynamic updates) or fixed daily value (stable, non-repainting).
- "Low Threshold %" (Float, default: 40.0, range: 0-100)
Percentage of ADR% below which CDR% gets the low (green) background. Lower it (e.g., 30%) for stricter low-volatility alerts.
- "High Threshold %" (Float, default: 60.0, range: 0-100)
Percentage of ADR% above which CDR% gets the high (red) background. Raise it (e.g., 70%) to highlight only extreme expansions.
- "ADR% Text Color" (Color picker, default: black)
Foreground color for ADR% text. Choose contrasting colors for dark/light themes.
- "CDR% Text Color" (Color picker, default: black)
Foreground color for CDR% text. Ensures readability over dynamic backgrounds.
- "Low CDR% Background (below low threshold)" (Color picker, default: light green with 70% transparency)
Background for subdued ranges. Adjust opacity for subtlety.
- "Mid CDR% Background (between thresholds)" (Color picker, default: light blue with 70% transparency)
Neutral background for typical moves.
- "High CDR% Background (above high threshold)" (Color picker, default: light red with 70% transparency)
Alert-style background for breakouts.
- "Cell Height %" (Integer, default: 8, range: 1-20)
Vertical padding for labels as a percentage of chart height. Increase (e.g., 12) in multi-pane layouts to prevent text clipping; decrease for compact views.
- "ADR% Position" (String dropdown: Top/Bottom/Middle Left/Right/Center, default: Bottom Right)
Placement of ADR% label. Use separate positions for side-by-side comparison.
- "CDR% Position" (String dropdown: Top/Bottom/Middle Left/Right/Center, default: Bottom Right)
Placement of CDR% label. Matching positions auto-stacks them vertically.
- "Text Size" (String dropdown: Tiny/Small/Normal/Large, default: Normal)
Font size for labels. "Small" for dense charts; "Normal" for clarity.
Usage Tips
- "Volatility Trading": Set thresholds to 50%/80% for spotting range expansions during news events.
- "Multi-Timeframe": Apply on 5-min charts with daily ADR for intraday targets (e.g., aim for 80% of ADR).
- "Customization": For forex/crypto, tweak Start/End to session opens. Test in replay mode to verify non-repainting.
- "Limitations": Intraday mode updates live but may not repaint until bar close; daily mode is fixed.
Vol-Pace Projected-ATR-ADX-Alert-MAThe VolSC indicator analyzes stock volume trends with a focus on the Pace metric, which projects today's volume as a percentage of the 30-day average, highlighting unusual activity (e.g., over 200% turns bright green with alerts). The phantom projection bar, a wide green histogram to the right of the last bar, visually represents this projected volume on daily charts only, aiding quick identification of potential volume surges without cluttering intraday or weekly views. Additional features include ADX strength, ATR averages, and customizable table display for comprehensive insights.
Key Features:
* Primary Indicator: Volume with ADX (Average Directional Index) text.
* Pacing and Alerts: Calculates the volume pace for the day. Features an unusual volume alert with an adjustable threshold (e.g., 200%).
* Volume Projection: Projects a visual "Phantom Volume" for the day, offset to the right of the actual volume bar.
* ATR Indicator: Displays the 2x ATR (Average True Range) value as text.
* Volume Average: Displays the ADV (Average Daily Volume) Moving Average as text.
* Customization: Most settings are adjustable.

Project Pegasus RevenantDescription
Project Pegasus Revenant is a reversal and liquidity-trap detection system combining a configurable fractal reversal engine with the SweepTrigger liquidity finder. It highlights potential structural turning points and stop-hunt scenarios directly on the chart.
What’s unique
Fractal Reversal Engine: Adjustable strictness (1 = loose, 5 = strict) to fit different market conditions.
Signal Filtering: Minimum bar spacing to avoid clustering of false or repeated signals.
SweepTrigger Add-on: Detects liquidity sweeps with wick-based rejection logic, auto-doji detection, and range-strength confirmation.
Dual Signal Output: Circle markers for pure fractal reversals, triangles for sweep-based liquidity traps.
Adaptive Filters: Customizable thresholds for body size, candle range, and sweep strength.
How it works (technical)
Fractals: A reversal fractal is confirmed when the high/low at position n is surrounded by lower/higher highs/lows across a configurable frontier.
Signal confirmation: Once price trades back through the fractal level within a limited number of bars, a potential reversal is triggered.
Bar filter: Signals require a minimum distance in bars to prevent noise.
SweepTrigger logic:
Wick comparison (upper vs lower) determines rejection direction.
Doji and low-body candles are auto-filtered.
Range check ensures the current candle exceeds a configurable multiple of the average range.
Visuals:
Green/Red circles = fractal reversals.
Cyan/Purple triangles = liquidity sweep triggers.
How to use
Watch fractal signals to anticipate structural reversal points.
Combine SweepTrigger signals with liquidity highs/lows for identifying stop hunts and fakeouts.
Use as standalone reversal tool or as confirmation within a broader system (e.g., order blocks, volume profile, or market structure).
Key settings
Reversal Mode: 1–5 (controls strictness of fractals).
SweepTrigger: On/off toggle, lookback window, body-size filter, range strength multiplier.
Visuals: Shapes, sizes, and color-coded signals for clear separation between fractal and sweep triggers.
Notes & limitations
Works on all timeframes.
Signals are reactive (based on confirmed bars), not predictive — no lookahead logic.
Too strict settings may reduce signal frequency; too loose may increase noise.

TTM Squeeze Range Lines (with Forward Extension) By Gautam KumarThis TTM Squeeze Range Lines script helps visualize breakout levels by marking the recent squeeze’s high and low, making it easier to identify potential trade setups. Each signal line is extended for visibility, showing possible entry levels after a squeeze.
Interpreting the LinesLight blue background marks periods when the TTM squeeze is active (tight volatility).
Green line is drawn at the highest price during the squeeze, extended forward—this is commonly used as the breakout level for long entries.
Red line shows the lowest price during the squeeze, indicating the bottom of the range—potential stop loss positioning or an invalidation level.
When the squeeze background disappears, the horizontal lines will have just appeared and extended forward for several bars after the squeeze ends.
If the price breaks above the green line (the squeeze high), it signals a possible momentum breakout, which traders often use as a long entry.
The red line can be used for placing stop losses or monitoring failed breakouts if price falls below this level.
Best Practices
Combine these levels with volume and momentum confirmation for strong entries.
Adjust the extension length (number of bars forward) from the settings menu to fit your preference.
For systematic trading, use these breakout signals alongside chart pattern or histogram confirmation.
This makes it easy to visualize strong entry zones based on the end of squeeze compression, supporting both discretionary and automated swing trading approaches
CPR by Hexaurum LearningCPR (Central Pivot Range) Indicator Summary
Formula:
The CPR consists of three levels calculated from the previous period's price data:
Central Pivot (P) = (High + Low + Close) / 3
Bottom Central (BC) = (High + Low) / 2
Top Central (TC) = (High - Low) / 2 + Central Pivot
Note: TC can also be written as: 2 × Pivot - BC
The CPR range is the area between TC and BC (shown as a box in the indicator).
Key Features:
Multiple Timeframes: Daily, Weekly, and Monthly CPR levels
Developing CPR: Real-time CPR that updates as the current period forms
Fixed CPR: Static CPR from the completed previous period
Benefits & Trading Applications:
Trend Identification
Narrow CPR = Strong trending move likely (breakout expected)
Wide CPR = Consolidation or range-bound market
Support & Resistance
CPR acts as a strong support/resistance zone
Price tends to respect these levels for reversals or bounces
Breakout Trading
Price breaking above TC = Bullish signal
Price breaking below BC = Bearish signal
The narrower the CPR, the more explosive the breakout
Intraday Direction
If price opens above CPR = Bullish bias for the day
If price opens below CPR = Bearish bias for the day
Price within CPR = Neutral/range-bound
Multiple Timeframe Analysis
Higher timeframe CPR (Weekly/Monthly) provides major S/R zones
Daily CPR helps with precise entry/exit points
Confluence of multiple CPR levels increases reliability
Risk Management
Clear levels for stop-loss placement (beyond TC or BC)
Defined risk-reward zones for position sizing
Popular Strategy: Trade the CPR breakout with volume confirmation, using BC/TC as stop-loss levels.
Developing Camarilla Pivots by Hexaurum LearningMathematical Foundation
The Camarilla Formula
The Camarilla pivot levels are derived from the following key price parameters of the preceding trading session:
C = Prior day's closing price
H = Prior day's high price
L = Prior day's low price
Resistance Levels:
H5 = (H / L) × C (proprietary derivation for identifying extreme
resistance)
H4 = (H 3 L) × 1.1 / 2 + C
H3 = (H 3 L) × 1.1 / 4 + C
H2 = (H 3 L) × 1.1 / 6 + C
H1 = (H 3 L) × 1.1 / 12 + C
Support Levels:
L1 = C 3 (H 3 L) × 1.1 / 12
L2 = C 3 (H 3 L) × 1.1 / 6
L3 = C 3 (H 3 L) × 1.1 / 4
L4 = C 3 (H 3 L) × 1.1 / 2
L5 = C 3 (H5 3 C) (symmetrical derivation mirroring H5)
The Significance of the 1.1 Multiplier
The inclusion of a 1.1 multiplier in the formula incorporates a buffer for anticipated volatility expansion. The sequential divisors (2, 4, 6, 12) generate a
series of levels with decreasing incremental distances from the closing price, with each level delineating distinct probabilistic trading zones for potential
mean reversion or trend continuation.

ATR Support LineATR Support Line — Dynamic Volatility Trail
This indicator provides a dynamic trailing support line by combining an anchored moving average with an ATR-based volatility buffer. It is designed to adapt across different timeframes, making it useful for identifying trend support and managing risk.
Features
Flexible anchor length with multiple smoothing types (EMA, SMA, WMA, RMA, ZLEMA).
ATR length and multiplier to fine-tune volatility sensitivity.
Higher-timeframe interpolation for smoother transitions between candles.
Option to use confirmed higher-timeframe values (non-repainting mode).
How to Use
The plotted line acts as a dynamic support trail.
Price trading above the line indicates bullish market structure.
A break below the line may highlight weakening momentum or a potential shift in trend.
Can be applied on different timeframes to align higher-timeframe context with lower-timeframe entries.
