NQ Key Levels [EOY 2025]Key Price Levels to Watch
| Level | Type | Significance |
|---|---|---|
| 26,000 | Psychological Target | The "round number" magnet for the End of Year (EOY) close. |
| 25,835 | Major Resistance | The recent high from Dec 10. A break above this signals the Santa Rally is live. |
| 25,196 | Current Price | Friday's close. We are in "no man's land" here. |
| 25,000 | Critical Support | A psychological floor. If NQ breaks below this next week, the bullish thesis weakens. |
| 24,800 | Trend Defense | The "line in the sand." Bulls must defend this level to keep the uptrend intact. |
Projected Path for NQ (Dec 15 – Dec 31, 2025)
Dec 15–17 (Mon-Wed): Market tests support at 25,000. If it holds, buyers will step in.
Dec 18–19 (Thu-Fri): Erratic price action due to Triple Witching expiry. Avoid heavy leverage here.
Dec 22–31: Volume drops, but directional bias turns UP. The path of least resistance will be higher as sellers leave for the holidays.

Day Trading MA Crossover IndicatorDay Trading MA Crossover Indicator Overview The Day Trading MA Crossover Indicator is a simple yet effective tool designed for day traders to identify potential buy and sell opportunities based on moving average crossovers. It plots two customizable moving averages on your chart and generates clear visual signals when they cross, helping you spot trend reversals or continuations in fast-paced markets.This indicator is ideal for intraday trading on lower timeframes (e.g., 5-min, 15-min charts) but can be adapted for swing trading or higher timeframes. It's built with flexibility in mind, allowing you to tweak the MA lengths and types to suit your strategy.Key FeaturesMoving Average Crossovers: Generates "BUY" signals when the fast MA crosses above the slow MA (potential bullish entry) and "SELL" signals when it crosses below (potential bearish entry or exit).
Visual Signals: Green "BUY" labels below bars for long entries and red "SELL" labels above bars for short entries or exits. Optional subtle background coloring highlights signals for quick spotting.
Customizable Parameters:Fast MA Length (default: 9): Period for the shorter moving average.
Slow MA Length (default: 21): Period for the longer moving average.
MA Type (default: EMA): Choose between SMA (Simple), EMA (Exponential), or WMA (Weighted) for different smoothing behaviors.
Overlay Mode: Plots directly on your price chart without cluttering separate panes.
Lightweight and Efficient: Minimal computation for real-time performance on TradingView.
How It WorksMoving Averages Calculation: The indicator computes two MAs based on your selected type and lengths using closing prices.
Signal Detection: A buy signal triggers on an upward crossover (fast MA > slow MA), indicating potential momentum shift to the upside. A sell signal triggers on a downward crossunder (fast MA < slow MA), signaling possible downside momentum.
Visual Aids: Signals appear as labeled shapes with optional background tints to emphasize key bars.
Usage TipsFor Day Trading: Apply on volatile instruments like forex pairs, stocks, or crypto. Combine with support/resistance levels or other indicators (e.g., RSI for overbought/oversold confirmation) to filter false signals in ranging markets.
Backtesting: Test on historical data to optimize MA lengths for your asset—shorter periods for aggressive trading, longer for smoother trends.
Risk Management: Always use stop-losses and position sizing. Signals are not foolproof and work best in trending conditions.
Customization: Adjust inputs via the indicator settings panel after adding it to your chart.
Example SetupOn a 5-min EUR/USD chart: Use EMA (9/21) for quick crossovers. Look for buy signals above key support with increasing volume.
Avoid choppy markets where frequent false crossovers ("whipsaws") can occur.

Single Prints and Poor Highs/Lows [Real-Time]This indicator is designed for traders utilizing Auction Market Theory (AMT) who need real-time visibility into market structure inefficiencies. Unlike standard TPO tools that often wait for closed bars or finished sessions, this script builds a developing TPO profile tick-by-tick to identify Single Prints and Poor Highs/Lows the moment they form.
Key Features:
Real-Time Single Prints: Automatically detects and highlights areas of single-print inefficiencies (buying/selling tails) as they happen. These "ghost" boxes persist on the chart until price repairs (fills) them, acting as immediate targets or support/resistance zones.
Poor High/Low Detection: Strictly implements AMT logic to identify "unfinished" auctions. If a session extreme is formed by two or more TPO blocks (indicating a flat top/bottom rather than a rejection tail), it marks the level with a dotted line.
Repair Logic: Both Single Prints and Poor High/Low lines are dynamic. If price revisits and repairs the structure, the markers automatically vanish to keep your chart clean.
Session Control: Fully customizable RTH (Regular Trading Hours) session input (default 08:30–15:15) to ensure profiles are built on relevant liquidity.
Quantization: Adjustable "Ticks per Block" allowing you to tune the sensitivity of the TPO profile to different assets (ES, NQ, CL, etc.).
How It Works:
TPO Construction: The script breaks the session into 30-minute periods (configurable) and tracks price overlap.
Single Prints: When the market expands rapidly, leaving gaps in the profile (single TPO blocks), a box is drawn. If price trades back through this box, it deletes itself.
Poor Extremes: It monitors the current session High and Low. If the extreme price level has a TPO count of ≥ 2, it is flagged as "Poor." If the extreme is a single print (count = 1), it is considered a valid tail and left unmarked.
Settings:
RTH Session: Define your specific trading session time.
TPO Period: Default is 30 minutes (standard AMT).
Ticks per Block: Controls the vertical resolution of the TPO. (Higher values = coarser profile, Lower values = more precision).
Colors: Fully customizable colors for Live Prints, Historical Prints, and Poor High/Low lines.
Usage:
Use this tool to spot immediate structural targets. A Poor High often acts as a magnet for price to revisit and "repair," while Single Prints often defend as support/resistance on the first retest.
AMT Structure: 80% Traverse, PD Levels & nPOCsHere is a clean, professional description formatted for the TradingView description box. It highlights the methodology (AMT/80% Rule), the specific features, and the credits.
Title: AMT Structure: 80% Traverse, PD Levels & nPOCs
Description:
This indicator is a comprehensive toolkit designed for futures traders utilizing Auction Market Theory (AMT) and Volume Profile strategies. It consolidates multiple scripts into a single, unified overlay to declutter your chart while providing essential structural references for the 80% Traverse setup, intraday context, and longer-term auction targets.
Key Features:
1. 80% Rule / Traverse Setup (Chart Champions Logic)
Automated RTH Open Detection: Hardcoded to the 08:30 AM CT Open to ensure accuracy for US Futures (ES/NQ) regardless of your chart's timezone settings.
Value Area Logic: Automatically calculates the Previous Day's Value Area High (VAH), Value Area Low (VAL), and Point of Control (POC).
Setup Detection: If the market opens outside of the previous day's value, the script highlights the Value Area in color (default: Purple), signaling that an 80% traverse (filling the value area) is structurally possible if price re-enters value.
Background Fill: Optional shading between VAH and VAL to clearly visualize the "playing field" for the traverse.
2. Auction Market Theory (AMT) Premarket Levels
Overnight High/Low: Automatically captures the highest and lowest prices traded during the overnight session (17:00 - 08:30 CT).
Breakout Alerts: Includes logic to detect and alert when these overnight levels are broken during the RTH session.
Auto-Cleanup: Lines can be set to auto-delete after a specified time (default: 60 mins into the session) to keep the chart clean after the Initial Balance (IB) period.
3. Structural Reference Levels
Previous Day Levels: Plots Previous Day High, Low, and Equilibrium (Midpoint) as standard reference lines.
Initial Balance (IB): Option to display the First Hour High and Low (08:30 - 09:30 CT) to assess day type (Neutral, Trend, Normal Variation, etc.).
RTH VWAP: An anchored VWAP that resets specifically at the RTH Open (08:30 CT), distinct from the standard 24-hour VWAP.
4. Naked Points of Control (nPOCs)
Multi-Timeframe Tracking: Tracks and plots Naked POCs for Daily, Weekly, and Monthly profiles.
Auto-Cleanup: Lines automatically delete themselves the moment price touches them, ensuring you only see untested levels.
Customization: Toggle each timeframe on/off individually.
Settings & Customization:
Global Offset: Move all text labels to the right with a single setting to prevent price action from obscuring text.
8:30 Open Offset: Independent offset for the Open label to distinguish it from other opening references.
Smart Coloring: Text labels automatically match their corresponding line colors for easy identification.
Modular Toggles: Every section (AMT, VWAP, PD Levels, CCV, nPOCs) can be turned on or off individually to suit your specific trading plan.
Usage: This tool is specifically tuned for ES and NQ futures trading but can be adapted for other instruments. It replaces the need for separate indicators for Overnight Highs/Lows, Previous Day Levels, and Volume Profile targeting.
MACD Trend Count ScoreThis indicator aims to confirm trends in an asset's price. This confirmation is achieved by counting the MACD bars in a calculation using the chosen timeframe. Positive and negative bars are considered in the calculation of the strength index, which indicates the current trend of that asset.
This Delta index summarizes the predominance of positive or negative bars in the MACD histogram over weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, bi-monthly, and quarterly periods, and, depending on the timeframe used, its result allows one to indicate the intensity of the current trend, according to the results it shows within the following ranges:
Acima de +60 → Strong Raise.
Entre +20 e +60 → Moderate High.
Entre -20 e +20 → Neutral.
Entre -60 e -20 → Moderate Low.
Abaixo de -60 → Strong Low.
ICT Macro Tracker - Study Version (Original by toodegrees)This indicator is a modified study version of the ICT Algorithmic Macro Tracker by toodegrees, based on the original open-source script available at The original indicator plots ICT Macro windows on the chart, corresponding to specific time [ periods when the Interbank Price Delivery Algorithm undergoes checks/instructions (aka "macros") for the price engine to reprice to an area of liquidity or inefficiency.
This study version adds functionality to hide bars outside macro periods. When enabled, the indicator draws boxes that cover the full chart height during non-macro periods, obscuring those bars so only macro periods are visible. This helps focus on macro-only price action. The feature is configurable, allowing users to enable or disable it and customize the box color. All original functionality remains intact.

Density Zones (GM Crossing Clusters) + QHO Spin FlipsINDICATOR NAME
Density Zones (GM Crossing Clusters) + QHO Spin Flips
OVERVIEW
This indicator combines two complementary ideas into a single overlay: *this combines my earlier Geometric Mean Indicator with the Quantum Harmonic Oscillator (Overlay) with additional enhancements*
1) Density Zones (GM Crossing Clusters)
A “Density Zone” is detected when price repeatedly crosses a Geometric Mean equilibrium line (GM) within a rolling lookback window. Conceptually, this identifies regions where the market is repeatedly “snapping” across an equilibrium boundary—high churn, high decision pressure, and repeated re-selection of direction.
2) QHO Spin Flips (Regression-Residual σ Breaches)
A “Spin Flip” is detected when price deviates beyond a configurable σ-threshold (κ) from a regression-based equilibrium, using normalized residuals. Conceptually, this marks excursions into extreme states (decoherence / expansion), which often precede a reversion toward equilibrium and/or a regime re-scaling.
These two systems are related but not identical:
- Density Zones identify where equilibrium crossings cluster (a “singularity”/anchor behavior around GM).
- Spin Flips identify when price exceeds statistically extreme displacement from the regression equilibrium (LSR), indicating expansion beyond typical variance.
CORE CONCEPTS AND FORMULAS
SECTION A — GEOMETRIC MEAN EQUILIBRIUM (GM)
We define two moving averages:
(1) MA1_t = SMA(close_t, L1)
(2) MA2_t = SMA(close_t, L2)
We define the equilibrium anchor as the geometric mean of MA1 and MA2:
(3) GM_t = sqrt( MA1_t * MA2_t )
This GM line acts as an equilibrium boundary. Repeated crossings are interpreted as high “equilibrium churn.”
SECTION B — CROSS EVENTS (UP/DOWN)
A “cross event” is registered when the sign of (close - GM) changes:
Define a sign function s_t:
(4) s_t =
+1 if close_t > GM_t
-1 if close_t < GM_t
s_{t-1} if close_t == GM_t (tie-breaker to avoid false flips)
Then define the crossing event indicator:
(5) crossEvent_t = 1 if s_t != s_{t-1}
0 otherwise
Additionally, the indicator plots explicit cross markers:
- Cross Above GM: crossover(close, GM)
- Cross Below GM: crossunder(close, GM)
These provide directional visual cues and match the original Geometric Mean Indicator behavior.
SECTION C — DENSITY MEASURE (CROSSING CLUSTER COUNT)
A Density Zone is based on the number of cross events occurring in the last W bars:
(6) D_t = Σ_{i=0..W-1} crossEvent_{t-i}
This is a “crossing density” score: how many times price has toggled across GM recently.
The script implements this efficiently using a cumulative sum identity:
Let x_t = crossEvent_t.
(7) cumX_t = Σ_{j=0..t} x_j
Then:
(8) D_t = cumX_t - cumX_{t-W} (for t >= W)
cumX_t (for t < W)
SECTION D — DENSITY ZONE TRIGGER
We define a Density Zone state:
(9) isDZ_t = ( D_t >= θ )
where:
- θ (theta) is the user-selected crossing threshold.
Zone edges:
(10) dzStart_t = isDZ_t AND NOT isDZ_{t-1}
(11) dzEnd_t = NOT isDZ_t AND isDZ_{t-1}
SECTION E — DENSITY ZONE BOUNDS
While inside a Density Zone, we track the running high/low to display zone bounds:
(12) dzHi_t = max(dzHi_{t-1}, high_t) if isDZ_t
(13) dzLo_t = min(dzLo_{t-1}, low_t) if isDZ_t
On dzStart:
(14) dzHi_t := high_t
(15) dzLo_t := low_t
Outside zones, bounds are reset to NA.
These bounds visually bracket the “singularity span” (the churn envelope) during each density episode.
SECTION F — QHO EQUILIBRIUM (REGRESSION CENTERLINE)
Define the regression equilibrium (LSR):
(16) m_t = linreg(close_t, L, 0)
This is the “centerline” the QHO system uses as equilibrium.
SECTION G — RESIDUAL AND σ (FIELD WIDTH)
Residual:
(17) r_t = close_t - m_t
Rolling standard deviation of residuals:
(18) σ_t = stdev(r_t, L)
This σ_t is the local volatility/width of the residual field around the regression equilibrium.
SECTION H — NORMALIZED DISPLACEMENT AND SPIN FLIP
Define the standardized displacement:
(19) Y_t = (close_t - m_t) / σ_t
(If σ_t = 0, the script safely treats Y_t = 0.)
Spin Flip trigger uses a user threshold κ:
(20) spinFlip_t = ( |Y_t| > κ )
Directional spin flips:
(21) spinUp_t = ( Y_t > +κ )
(22) spinDn_t = ( Y_t < -κ )
The default κ=3.0 corresponds to “3σ excursions,” which are statistically extreme under a normal residual assumption (even though real markets are not perfectly normal).
SECTION I — QHO BANDS (OPTIONAL VISUALIZATION)
The indicator optionally draws the standard σ-bands around the regression equilibrium:
(23) 1σ bands: m_t ± 1·σ_t
(24) 2σ bands: m_t ± 2·σ_t
(25) 3σ bands: m_t ± 3·σ_t
These provide immediate context for the Spin Flip events.
WHAT YOU SEE ON THE CHART
1) MA1 / MA2 / GM lines (optional)
- MA1 (blue), MA2 (red), GM (green).
- GM is the equilibrium anchor for Density Zones and cross markers.
2) GM Cross Markers (optional)
- “GM↑” label markers appear on bars where close crosses above GM.
- “GM↓” label markers appear on bars where close crosses below GM.
3) Density Zone Shading (optional)
- Background shading appears while isDZ_t = true.
- This is the period where the crossing density D_t is above θ.
4) Density Zone High/Low Bounds (optional)
- Two lines (dzHi / dzLo) are drawn only while in-zone.
- These bounds bracket the full churn envelope during the density episode.
5) QHO Bands (optional)
- 1σ, 2σ, 3σ shaded zones around regression equilibrium.
- These visualize the current variance field.
6) Regression Equilibrium (LSR Centerline)
- The white centerline is the regression equilibrium m_t.
7) Spin Flip Markers
- A circle is plotted when |Y_t| > κ (beyond your chosen σ-threshold).
- Marker size is user-controlled (tiny → huge).
HOW TO USE IT
Step 1 — Pick the equilibrium anchor (GM)
- L1 and L2 define MA1 and MA2.
- GM = sqrt(MA1 * MA2) becomes your equilibrium boundary.
Typical choices:
- Faster equilibrium: L1=20, L2=50 (default-like).
- Slower equilibrium: L1=50, L2=200 (macro anchor).
Interpretation:
- GM acts like a “center of mass” between two moving averages.
- Crosses show when price flips from one side of equilibrium to the other.
Step 2 — Tune Density Zones (W and θ)
- W controls the time window measured (how far back you count crossings).
- θ controls how many crossings qualify as a “density/singularity episode.”
Guideline:
- Larger W = slower, broader density detection.
- Higher θ = only the most intense churn is labeled as a Density Zone.
Interpretation:
- A Density Zone is not “bullish” or “bearish” by itself.
- It is a condition: repeated equilibrium toggling (high churn / high compression).
- These often precede expansions, but direction is not implied by the zone alone.
Step 3 — Tune the QHO spin flip sensitivity (L and κ)
- L controls regression memory and σ estimation length.
- κ controls how extreme the displacement must be to trigger a spin flip.
Guideline:
- Smaller L = more reactive centerline and σ.
- Larger L = smoother, slower “field” definition.
- κ=3.0 = strong extreme filter.
- κ=2.0 = more frequent flips.
Interpretation:
- Spin flips mark when price exits the “normal” residual field.
- In your model language: a moment of decoherence/expansion that is statistically extreme relative to recent equilibrium.
Step 4 — Read the combined behavior (your key thesis)
A) Density Zone forms (GM churn clusters):
- Market repeatedly crosses equilibrium (GM), compressing into a bounded churn envelope.
- dzHi/dzLo show the envelope range.
B) Expansion occurs:
- Price can release away from the density envelope (up or down).
- If it expands far enough relative to regression equilibrium, a Spin Flip triggers (|Y| > κ).
C) Re-coherence:
- After a spin flip, price often returns toward equilibrium structures:
- toward the regression centerline m_t
- and/or back toward the density envelope (dzHi/dzLo) depending on regime behavior.
- The indicator does not guarantee return, but it highlights the condition where return-to-field is statistically likely in many regimes.
IMPORTANT NOTES / DISCLAIMERS
- This indicator is an analytical overlay. It does not provide financial advice.
- Density Zones are condition states derived from GM crossing frequency; they do not predict direction.
- Spin Flips are statistical excursions based on regression residuals and rolling σ; markets have fat tails and non-stationarity, so σ-based thresholds are contextual, not absolute.
- All parameters (L1, L2, W, θ, L, κ) should be tuned per asset, timeframe, and volatility regime.
PARAMETER SUMMARY

- Spin Flip UP / DOWN
- Cross Above GM / Cross Below GM
SUMMARY
This indicator treats the Geometric Mean as an equilibrium boundary and identifies “Density Zones” when price repeatedly crosses that equilibrium within a rolling window, forming a bounded churn envelope (dzHi/dzLo). It also models a regression-based equilibrium field and triggers “Spin Flips” when price makes statistically extreme σ-excursions from that field. Used together, Density Zones highlight compression/decision regions (equilibrium churn), while Spin Flips highlight extreme expansion states (σ-breaches), allowing the user to visualize how price compresses around equilibrium, releases outward, and often re-stabilizes around equilibrium structures over time.

Initial Balance with AlertsThis indicator is a comprehensive tool for Auction Market Theory (AMT) practitioners who rely on the Initial Balance (IB) to determine the day's likely structure. It automatically plots the High and Low of the opening session (user-definable) and extends those levels to provide key support and resistance zones for the remainder of the trading day.
Unlike standard IB indicators, this script features Smart Alerts that are time-filtered. You can define a specific "Active Alert Window" (e.g., RTH only) to ensure you are notified of breakouts during key hours, while avoiding spam notifications during overnight or low-volume sessions.
Key Features:
1. Customizable Initial Balance
Flexible Session: Define the exact start and end time for your IB calculation (Default: 08:30–09:30).
Visual Clarity: Plots IB High, IB Low, and the 50% Midpoint with fully customizable line styles, colors, and widths.
2. Smart Time-Filtered Alerts
Breakout Detection: Triggers an alert when price crosses above the IB High or below the IB Low.
Session Filter: Includes a unique "Allowed Alert Time" input. Alerts will only fire if the breakout happens within this window (Default: 08:30–15:00), preventing unwanted notifications during overnight chop.
3. Advanced Extensions & Targets
Extensions: Option to display multiples of the IB range (2x, 3x) to serve as statistical targets for trend days.
Intermediate Levels: Option to display half-step extensions (e.g., 1.5x) for tighter scalping targets.
4. IB Delta Analytics Dashboard
Context is Key: An optional on-screen dashboard tracks the size of the Initial Balance over the last 20 days.
Sentiment: Automatically categorizes today's IB as "Huge," "Medium," or "Small" compared to the 20-day average. This helps you anticipate if the day is likely to be a "Range Day" (Large IB) or a "Trend Day" (Small IB).
Settings Overview:
Calculation Period: The time used to measure the high and low (e.g., first 60 mins).
Allowed Alert Time: The window during which alerts are active.
Show Extra Levels: Toggles the 2x and 3x extensions.
Fill IB Areas: Adds a background color to the opening range for better visibility.
Delta Analytics: Toggles the statistics table on/off.
Author's Instructions
How to Configure the Time Settings: This script uses two distinct time inputs to give you maximum control:
"Calculation period": This is when the script measures the High and Low.
Example: 0830-0930 (The first hour of the NYSE session).
"Allowed Alert Time (RTH)": This is when the script is allowed to send you alerts.
Example: 0830-1500 (The full trading day).
Why this matters: If price breaks the IB High at 18:00 (during the overnight session), the script will ignore it if your alert time ends at 15:00. This saves you from waking up to low-probability signals.
Setting Up Alerts: To activate the alerts, add the indicator to your chart, click the "Alerts" button (clock icon) in the top toolbar, select this indicator from the "Condition" list, and choose "Any alert() function call".

Volume Delta Divergence Candle ColorThis indicator identifies divergences between price action and volume delta, highlighting potential reversal or continuation signals by coloring candles when buyer/seller pressure conflicts with the candle's direction.
**How It Works:**
The indicator analyzes real-time up/down volume data to detect two types of divergences:
🟣 **Seller Divergence (Fuscia)** - Occurs when a candle closes bullish (green) but the volume delta is negative, indicating more selling pressure despite the upward price movement. This suggests weak buying or potential distribution.
🔵 **Buyer Divergence (Cyan)** - Occurs when a candle closes bearish (red) but the volume delta is positive, indicating more buying pressure despite the downward price movement. This suggests weak selling or potential accumulation.
**Features:**
✓ Colors only divergent candles - non-divergent candles maintain your chart's default colors
✓ Uses actual exchange volume delta data (works best with CME futures and other instruments with tick-level data)
✓ Optional triangle markers above/below divergent candles for quick visual identification
✓ Clean, minimal design that doesn't clutter your chart
**Best Used For:**
- Identifying potential reversals or continuations
- Spotting weak price movements that may not follow through
- Confirming price action with underlying volume pressure
- Works on any timeframe with available volume delta data
**Note:** This indicator requires volume data from exchanges that provide tick-level information (CME futures, cryptocurrency exchanges, etc.). Results may vary on instruments with limited volume data.
Volatility High/Low Projection (PHOD / PLOD)AP Capital – Volatility + High/Low Projection
This indicator is designed to identify high-probability intraday turning points by combining daily range statistics, session behaviour, and volatility context into a single clean framework.
It is built for index, forex, and metals traders who want structure, not noise.
🔹 Core Features
1️⃣ Potential High of Day (PHOD) & Potential Low of Day (PLOD)
The indicator highlights likely intraday extremes based on:
Session timing (Asia, London, New York)
Current day volatility vs historical averages
Prior day expansion or compression behaviour
Each level is displayed with:
A clear label (PHOD / PLOD)
A forward-extending box acting as a live Point of Interest (POI)
Automatic invalidation when price breaks the zone
2️⃣ Volatility & Range Context (Info Panel)
A compact information panel in the top-right corner provides real-time context without cluttering the chart:
20-Day Average Range
% of the average range already used today
Range status (NORMAL / EXHAUSTED)
Average session ranges for:
Asia
London
New York
This allows traders to immediately assess whether price is:
Early in the day with room to trend
Statistically stretched and prone to reversal
Over-extended where breakout chasing is risky
3️⃣ Session-Aware Logic
The model respects how markets behave across the trading day:
Asia favours accumulation and potential lows
London provides expansion
New York often delivers distribution or exhaustion
This prevents random high/low marking and focuses only on structurally meaningful levels.
🧠 How to Use
Use PHOD / PLOD boxes as reaction zones, not blind entries
Combine with your own confirmation (structure break, momentum, volume, EMA reclaim, etc.)
Avoid chasing trades when the Range Status = EXHAUSTED
Particularly effective on 15m – 1h timeframes
⚠️ Important Notes
This indicator does not repaint
It is contextual, not a buy/sell signal generator
Best used as part of a complete trading plan

XAUUSD Session Move Stats (Last 14 Days)This indicator analyzes Gold (XAUUSD) session behavior over the last 14 days and calculates how price typically moves during the Asia, London, and New York sessions.
For each session, it shows:
Average Max Up (%) – how far price moves up from session open
Average Max Down (%) – how far price moves down from session open
Average Net Close (%) – where price typically finishes relative to the session open
The data is calculated session-by-session and displayed in a table, helping traders understand session bias, volatility tendencies, and directional behavior.
Best used on intraday timeframes for session-based analysis and contextual trade planning (signals only, no automated trades).
Trend zooming boxThis script clearly find trend.
You will be able to find areas where you get large impulsive moves in history easily. Not too much to describe.
