Chart-Muster
Liquidity strategy tester [Influxum]This tool is based on the concept of liquidity. It includes 10 methods for identifying liquidity in the market. Although this tool is presented as a strategy, we see it more as a data-gathering instrument.
Warning: This indicator/strategy is not intended to generate profitable strategies. It is designed to identify potential market advantages and help with identifying effective entry points to capitalize on those advantages.
Once again, we have advanced the methods of effectively searching for liquidity in the market. With strategies, defined by various entry methods and risk management, you can find your edge in the market. This tool is backed by thorough testing and development, and we plan to continue improving it.
In its current form, it can also be used to test well-known ICT or Smart Money concepts. Using various methods, you can define market structure and identify areas where liquidity is located.
Fair Value Gaps - one of the entry signal options is fair value gaps, where an imbalance between buyers and sellers in the market can be expected.
Time and Price Theory - you can test this by setting liquidity from a specific session and testing entries as that liquidity is grabbed
Judas Swing - can be tested as a market reversal after a breakout during the first hours of trading.
Power of Three - accumulation can be observed as the market moving within a certain range, identified as cluster liquidity in our tool, manipulation occurs with the break of liquidity, and distribution is the direction of the entry.
🟪 Methods of Identifying Liquidity
Pivot Liquidity
This refers to liquidity formed by local extremes – the highest or lowest prices reached in the market over a certain period. The period is defined by a pivot number and determines how many candles before and after the high/low were higher/lower. Simply put, the pivot number represents the number of adjacent candles to the left and right, with a lower high for a pivot high and a higher low for a pivot low. The higher the number, the more significant the high/low is. Behind these local market extremes, we expect to find orders waiting for breakout as well as stop-losses.
Gann Swing
Similar to pivot liquidity, Gann swing identifies significant market points. However, instead of candle highs and lows, it focuses on the closing prices. A Gann swing is formed when a candle closes above (or below) several previous closes (the number is again defined by a strength parameter).
Percentage Change
Apart from ticks, percentages are also a key unit of market movement. In the search for liquidity, we monitor when a local high or low is formed. For liquidity defined by percentage change, a high must be a certain percentage higher than the last low to confirm a significant high. Similarly, a low must be a defined percentage away from the last significant high to confirm a new low. With the right percentage settings, you can eliminate market noise.
Session Range (3x)
Session range is a popular concept for finding liquidity, especially in smart money concepts (SMC). You can set up liquidity visualization for the Asian, London, or New York sessions – or even all three at once. This tool allows you to work with up to three sessions, so you can easily track how and if the market reacts to liquidity grabs during these sessions.
Tip for traders: If you want to see the reaction to liquidity grab during a specific session at a certain time (e.g., the well-known killzone), you can set the Trading session in this tool to the exact time where you want to look for potential entries.
Unfinished Auction
Based on order flow theory, an unfinished auction occurs when the market reverses sharply without filling all pending orders. In price action terms, this can be seen as two candles at a local high or low with very similar or identical highs/lows. The maximum difference between these values is defined as Tolerance, with the default setting being 3 ticks. This setting is particularly useful for filtering out noise during slower market periods, like the Asian session.
Double Tops and Bottoms
A very popular concept not only from smart money concepts but also among price pattern traders is the double bottom and double top. This occurs when the market stops and reverses at a certain price twice in a row. In the tool, you can set how many candles apart these bottoms/tops can be by adjusting the Length parameter. According to some theories, double bottoms are more effective when there is a significant peak between the two bottoms. You can set this in the tool as the Swing value, which defines how large the movement (expressed in ticks) must be between the two peaks/bottoms. The final parameter you can adjust is Tolerance, which defines the possible price difference between the two peaks/bottoms, also expressed in ticks.
Range or Cluster Liquidity
When the market stays within a certain price range, there’s a chance that breakout orders and stop-losses are accumulating outside of this range. Our tool defines ranges in two ways:
Candle balance calculates the average price within a candle (open, high, low, and close), and it defines consolidation when the centers of candles are within a certain distance from each other.
Overlap confirms consolidation when a candle overlaps with the previous one by a set percentage.
Daily, Weekly, and Monthly Highs or Lows
These options simply define liquidity as the previous day’s, week’s, or month’s highs or lows.
Visual Settings
You can easily adjust how liquidity is displayed on the chart, choosing line style, color, and thickness. To display only uncollected liquidity, select "Delete grabbed liquidity."
Liquidity Duration
This setting allows you to control how long liquidity areas remain valid. You can cancel liquidity at the end of the day, the second day, or after a specific number of candles.
🟪 Strategy
Now we come to the part of working with strategies.
Max # of bars after liquidity grab – This parameter allows you to define how many candles you can search for entry signals from the moment liquidity is grabbed. If you are using engulfing as an entry signal, which consists of 2 candles, keep in mind that this number must be at least 2. In general, if you want to test a quick and sharp reaction, set this number as low as possible. If you want to wait for a structural change after the liquidity grab, which may require more candles, set the number a bit higher.
🟪 Strategy - entries
In this section, we define the signals or situations where we can enter the market after liquidity has been taken out.
Liquidity grab - This setup triggers a trade immediately after liquidity is grabbed, meaning the trade opens as the next candle forms.
Close below, close above - This refers to situations where the price closes below liquidity, but then reverses and closes above liquidity again, suggesting the liquidity grab was a false breakout.
Over bar - This occurs when the entire candle (high and low) passes beyond the liquidity level but then experiences a pullback.
Engulfing - A popular price action pattern that is included in this tool.
2HL - weak, medium, strong - A variation of a popular candlestick pattern.
Strong bar - A strong reactionary candle that forms after a liquidity grab. If liquidity is grabbed at a low, this would be a strong long candle that closes near its high and is significantly larger compared to typical volatility.
Naked bar - A candlestick pattern we’ve tested that serves as a good confirmation of market movement.
FVG (Fair Value Gap) - A currently popular concept. This is the only signal with additional settings. “Pending FVG order valid” means if a fair value gap forms after a liquidity grab, a limit order is placed, which remains valid for a set number of candles. “FVG minimal tick size” allows you to filter based on the gap size, measured in ticks. “GAP entry model” lets you decide whether to place the limit order at the gap close or its edge.
🟪 Strategy - General
Long, short - You can choose whether to focus on long or short trades. It’s interesting to see how long and short trades yield different results across various markets.
Pyramiding - By default, the tool opens only one trade at a time. If a new signal arises while a trade is open, it won’t enter another position unless the pyramiding box is checked. You also need to set the maximum number of open trades in the Properties.
Position size - Simply set the size of the traded position.
🟪 Strategy - Time
In this section, you can set time parameters for the strategy being tested.
Test since year - As the name implies, you can limit the testing to start from a specific year.
Trading session - Define the trading session during which you want to test entries. You can also visualize the background (BG) for confirmation.
Exclude session - You can set a session period during which you prefer not to search for trades. For example, when the New York session opens, volatility can sharply increase, potentially reducing the long-term success rate of the tested setup.
🟪 Strategy - Exits
This section lets you define risk management rules.
PT & SL - Set the profit target (PT) and stop loss (SL) here.
Lowest/highest since grab - This option sets the stop loss at the lowest point after a liquidity grab at a low or at the highest point after a liquidity grab at a high. Since markets usually overshoot during liquidity grabs, it’s good practice to place the stop loss at the furthest point after the grab. You can also set your risk-reward ratio (RRR) here. A value of 1 sets an RRR of 1:1, 2 means 2:1, and so on.
Lowest/highest last # bars - Similar to the previous option, but instead of finding the extreme after a liquidity grab, it identifies the furthest point within the last number of candles. You can set how far back to look using the # bars field (for an engulfing pattern, 2 is optimal since it’s made of two candles, and the stop loss can be placed at the edge of the engulfing pattern). The RRR setting works the same way as in the previous option.
Other side liquidity grab - If this option is checked, the trade will exit when liquidity is grabbed on the opposite side (i.e., if you entered on a liquidity grab at a low, the trade will exit when liquidity is grabbed at a high).
Exit after # bars - A popular exit strategy where you close the position after a set number of candles.
Exit after # bars in profit - This option exits the trade once the position is profitable for a certain number of consecutive candles. For example, if set to 5, the position will close when 5 consecutive candles are profitable. You can also set a maximum number of candles (in the max field), ensuring the trade is closed after a certain time even if the profit condition hasn’t been met.
🟪 Alerts
Alerts are a key tool for traders to ensure they don’t miss trading opportunities. They also allow traders to manage their time effectively. Who would want to sit in front of the computer all day waiting for a trading opportunity when they could be attending to other matters? In our tool, you currently have two options for receiving alerts:
Liquidity grabs alert – if you enable this feature and set an alert, the alert will be triggered every time a candle on the current timeframe closes and intersects with the displayed liquidity line.
Entry signals alert – this feature triggers an alert when a signal for entry is generated based on the option you’ve selected in the Entry type. It’s an ideal way to be notified only when a trading opportunity appears according to your predefined rules.
Auto Harmonic TerhalAuto Harmonic Terhal is an advanced harmonic pattern recognition indicator designed to identify a wide range of harmonic patterns and their corresponding Fibonacci retracement levels. This tool is equipped with all major harmonic patterns, including the Gartley, Bat, Crab, DeepCrab, Butterfly, and Shark patterns, along with their precise Fibonacci ratios derived from Scott Carney's Harmonic Trading framework.
Key Features:
Harmonic Patterns: The indicator supports all the essential harmonic patterns, each accompanied by their unique Fibonacci retracement levels, such as 0.382, 0.500, 0.618, 0.786, 0.886, 1.13, 1.618, and 1.902. These ratios are based on Scott Carney's studies.
Predictive and Conventional Usage : The Auto Harmonic Terhal can be used in two ways:
-Predictive: Traders can anticipate harmonic patterns before they are fully formed, allowing them to set up trades in advance.
Conventional: The indicator confirms patterns once they appear, making it a useful tool for pattern validation.
-Accurate Targets: Once a pattern is identified, the indicator displays target levels based on correct Fibonacci ratios, helping traders to locate potential price reversal points and profit targets.
Multi-Zigzag Functionality: The indicator scans for patterns across multiple zigzag configurations, enhancing the detection of different harmonic structures without limiting itself to a single timeframe or zigzag structure.
Fibonacci Ratios for Patterns:
Gartley: XA retracement 61.8%, AB between 0.618 and 0.786, CD 1.272 extension.
Bat: XA retracement 50%, AB 38.2% to 50%, CD 88.6%.
Crab: XA retracement 38.2%, CD extension 161.8%.
Deep Crab: XA retracement 88.6%, CD extension 161.8%.
Butterfly: XA retracement 78.6%, CD extension 127% to 161.8%.
Shark: AB 113% to 161.8%, CD 88.6%.
This indicator serves as a crucial aid for harmonic pattern analysis and supports an essential form of technical analysis. However, it does not recommend buying or selling or making any trade decisions directly. It is meant to assist in harmonic analysis for traders, providing a framework for understanding market reversals and structure.
Note : The tool is intended as a technical analysis assistant and does not provide direct buy or sell signals.
CZ Parabolic SAR + MAThe "CZ Parabolic SAR + MA" indicator combines a Parabolic SAR (PSAR) and a Moving Average (MA) to generate buy and sell signals, with an optional noise filter based on the MA. Here's a breakdown of how to use the indicator and its key parameters:
Key Features:
Parabolic SAR helps identify potential reversals by plotting dots above or below the price.
Moving Average smooths out price action and can be shifted forward or backward.
Noise Filter can be toggled on/off to reduce signals when the price doesn't align with the moving average.
How to Use the Indicator:
Parabolic SAR:
Green dots: Indicate a potential buy signal when the PSAR crosses below the price.
Red dots: Indicate a potential sell signal when the PSAR crosses above the price.
Buy/Sell Signals:
BUY: Occurs when the PSAR crosses below the price, and the price is above the moving average (if the filter is enabled).
SELL: Occurs when the PSAR crosses above the price, and the price is below the moving average (if the filter is enabled).
Noise Filter:
If enabled, the indicator will only trigger buy/sell signals if the price is also aligned with the moving average (above for buy, below for sell).
Moving Average:
A simple moving average (SMA) is plotted as a green line on the chart.
The moving average can be shifted forward or backward using the "MA Shift" parameter.
Parameters Explained:
Parabolic SAR Step (Default: 0.02): Controls the sensitivity of the PSAR dots. A smaller step results in dots closer to price, while a larger step results in dots further away.
Parabolic SAR Max (Default: 0.2): The maximum step size the PSAR can reach. This affects how quickly the dots move in strong trends.
Moving Average Period (Default: 6): The number of periods used to calculate the simple moving average. Adjust this to smooth out price action more or less.
MA Shift (Default: 0): Shifts the moving average line. Positive values shift it forward, and negative values shift it backward.
Enable Moving Average Filter (Default: True): Enables or disables the noise filter. If enabled, buy/sell signals require alignment with the moving average.
Prometheus Trend LinesPrometheus Trend lines is a tool that automatically plots support and resistance trend lines on your chart. These lines generally come out looking like triangles or wedges.
There are two ways that we do it, the first way we’ll cover is lookback period generated trend lines.
The two points for the lines are generated as follows, for a resistance line that is blue by default, the point furthest in the past is the highest high in the specified lookback period. 50 is the default, the point closest to the present is the current bar’s high. The opposite is true for support lines, the point furthest in the past is the lowest low, and the most present point is the current bar’s low.
The interval is created by ensuring after the lookback period is met to plot the lines, that period needs to pass again. That is so we can let the potential results of price breaking above or below the levels play out.
Lines will be plotted on the newest lookback period bar, after a period with no plot. What I mean is right after lines are plotted, users will have to wait for double the lookback period to get newer lines. So if you select 50 for your lookback value, after new lines are plotted, on the 100th bar after the new lines will be there. This is to avoid having a line on your chart change, we’d rather plot a line once, than plot it and keep changing it.
Each line is 50 bars long and all the distance in between them is 50 bars. The line is drawn simply with the shortest path from the back point to the more present one, this allows us to see breaks in the line and get a better idea of how strong the next move may be.
We see in this wedge on NASDAQ:TSLA that there were two false breaks before the price re-entered the wedge and continued falling. It could be interpreted as buyers did not have enough strength to get NASDAQ:TSLA out of a downtrend there.
We also offer an intra day line.
In this image captured with the bar replay feature we see the lines being generated with the high and low of the day, that is the method we use. Furthermore, a user may notice that the ends of the line are not at the newest bar. That is on purpose, we use the
barstate.islastconfirmedhistory
to ensure that we don’t change and plot too many lines at a given point. These two lines will reset every day as time changes and will auto use the current day high and low.
Users have the option to select a custom lookback period, as well as turn on or off the plots for either method of generating lines.
We encourage traders to not follow indicators blindly, none are 100% accurate. The lines generated are not guaranteed to be perfect support and resistance levels. We encourage the use of discretion. Please comment on any desired updates, all criticism is welcome!

200 MAPD - Relative Price with candlesticks and divergenceThis is a MAPD (moving average percent difference) indicator that plots the results in candlestick format and with an option to show divergencies of a specific look back period. It's built with 200 moving average, which cannot be adjusted. A divergence is when the actual asset price moves in the opposite direction than the MAPD.
MAPD measures the percent difference of the asset price from the moving average, in this case, 200 moving average.
MAPD is my favorite indicator because it's an leading indicator, capable of predicting upcoming directions pretty accurately if you learn how to use it and how it works on your specific asset. With candlesticks instead of line you can also apply your own price action techniques.
I created this to be somewhat of a substitute for the actual price of the asset, meaning that price action analysis should be applied on this indicator and asset price is used as a secondary to spot divergencies.
The chart showing on this description is my own discretionary plotting of technical aspects. Divergencies will be enabled per default, but my preference is to have them off and plot my own analysis. And turn them on to get an overview from time to time. You can also change the look back period for the divergencies as you like.
I would say it works best from 1 hour to 1 day, maybe 1 week if you're bottom fishing in a big bear trend.
If you try it out and like it i would love to hear how you find it useful in the comments, will be helpful for me and others :)

Outside CandleThis script aims to detect the Outside Candle pattern, which is a candle that has a higher high and a lower low compared to the previous candle.
Larry Connors 3 Day High/Low StrategyThe Larry Connors 3 Day High/Low Strategy is a short-term mean-reversion trading strategy that is designed to identify potential buying opportunities when a security is oversold. This strategy is based on the principles developed by Larry Connors, a well-known trading system developer and author.
Key Strategy Elements:
1. Trend Confirmation: The strategy first confirms that the security is in a long-term uptrend by ensuring that the closing price is above the 200-day moving average (condition1). This rule helps filter trades to align with the longer-term trend.
2. Short-Term Pullback: The strategy looks for a short-term pullback by ensuring that the closing price is below the 5-day moving average (condition2). This identifies potential entry points when the price temporarily moves against the longer-term trend.
3. Three Consecutive Lower Highs and Lows:
• The high and low two days ago are lower than those of the day before (condition3).
• The high and low yesterday are lower than those of two days ago (condition4).
• Today’s high and low are lower than yesterday’s (condition5).
These conditions are used to identify a sequence of declining highs and lows, signaling a short-term pullback or oversold condition in the context of an overall uptrend.
4. Entry and Exit Signals:
• Buy Signal: A buy order is triggered when all the above conditions are met (buyCondition).
• Sell Signal: A sell order is executed when the closing price is above the 5-day moving average (sellCondition), indicating that the pullback might be ending.
Risks of the Strategy
1. Mean Reversion Failure: This strategy relies on the assumption that prices will revert to the mean after a short-term pullback. In strong downtrends or during market crashes, prices may continue to decline, leading to significant losses.
2. Whipsaws and False Signals: The strategy may generate false signals, especially in choppy or sideways markets where the price does not follow a clear trend. This can lead to frequent small losses that can add up over time.
3. Dependence on Historical Patterns: The strategy is based on historical price patterns, which do not always predict future price movements accurately. Sudden market news or economic changes can disrupt the pattern.
4. Lack of Risk Management: The strategy as written does not include stop losses or position sizing rules, which can expose traders to larger-than-expected losses if conditions change rapidly.

123 Reversal Trading StrategyThe 123 Reversal Trading Strategy is a technical analysis approach that seeks to identify potential reversal points in the market by analyzing price patterns. This Pine Script™ code implements a version of this strategy, and here’s a detailed description:
Strategy Overview
Objective: The strategy aims to identify bullish reversal patterns using the 123 pattern and manage trades with a specified holding period and a 20-day moving average as an additional exit condition.
Key Components:
Holding Period: The number of days to hold a trade is adjustable, with the default set to 7 days.
Moving Average: A 200-day simple moving average (SMA) is used to determine an exitcondition based on the price crossing this average.
Pattern Recognition:
Condition 1: The low of the current day must be lower than the low of the previous day.
Condition 2: The low of the previous day must be lower than the low from three days ago.
Condition 3: The low two days ago must be lower than the low from four days ago.
Condition 4: The high two days ago must be lower than the high three days ago.
Entry Condition: All four conditions must be met for a buy signal.
Exit Condition: The position is closed either after the specified holding period or when the price reaches or exceeds the 200-day moving average.
Relevant Literature
Graham, B., & Dodd, D. L. (1934). Security Analysis. This classic work introduces fundamental analysis and technical analysis principles which are foundational to understanding patterns like the 123 reversal.
Murphy, J. J. (1999). Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets. Murphy provides an extensive overview of technical indicators and chart patterns, including reversal patterns similar to the 123 pattern.
Elder, A. (1993). Trading for a Living. Elder discusses various trading strategies and technical analysis techniques that complement the understanding of reversal patterns and their application in trading.
Risks and Considerations
Pattern Reliability: The 123 reversal pattern, like many technical patterns, is not foolproof. It can generate false signals, especially in volatile or trending markets. This may lead to losses if the pattern does not play out as expected.
Market Conditions: The strategy may perform differently under various market conditions. In strongly trending markets, reversal patterns might not be as reliable.
Lagging Indicators: The use of the 200-day moving average as an exit condition can be considered a lagging indicator. This means it reacts to price movements with a delay, which might result in late exits and missed profit opportunities.
Holding Period: The fixed holding period of 7 days may not be optimal for all market conditions or stocks. It is essential to adjust the holding period based on market dynamics and individual stock behavior.
Overfitting: The parameters used (like the number of days and moving average length) are set based on historical data. Overfitting can occur if these parameters are tailored too specifically to past data, leading to reduced performance in future scenarios.
Conclusion
The 123 Reversal Trading Strategy is designed to identify potential market reversals using specific conditions related to price lows and highs. While it offers a structured approach to trading, it is essential to be aware of its limitations and potential risks. As with any trading strategy, it should be tested thoroughly in various market conditions and adjusted according to the individual trading style and risk tolerance.

MAC-Z Indicator with Slope-Based Coloring - Vondor XMAC-Z Indicator with Trend-Based Slope Filtering and Background Shading
Author: Vondor
Description:
The MAC-Z Indicator is an advanced technical analysis tool designed to assess momentum and trend strength using a combination of Z-score and MACD principles. The indicator applies a calculated MAC-Z value, which is derived from a weighted combination of a VWAP Z-score and MACD-style moving averages. The inclusion of a short-term Simple Moving Average (SMA) on the MAC-Z helps identify potential crossovers, providing signals of momentum changes.
Additionally, this enhanced version incorporates trend-based slope filtering, which adjusts the coloring and background of the chart based on the slope of the MAC-Z SMA (SMAMACZ). The filter helps to distinguish between uptrends, downtrends, and flat trends. Dynamic color coding is used to visualize the direction of the trend:
Green: Uptrend, indicating positive momentum.
Red: Downtrend, indicating negative momentum.
Yellow: Flat or sideways trend.
How It Works:
MAC-Z Calculation: The indicator computes a MAC-Z value, blending the Z-score (a standardized measure of relative price) and MACD (trend-following momentum).
SMA Slope Filter: A short-term SMA on the MAC-Z value smooths the signal, and the slope of this SMA determines trend direction. The slope's magnitude is compared against a threshold to determine whether it is flat, up, or down.
Visual Cues: The indicator uses color coding for the MAC-Z SMA line and applies background shading to highlight uptrend, downtrend, and flat trend conditions.
Inputs:
Z-Score Length (lengthz): Defines the period for calculating the VWAP Z-score.
Standard Deviation Length (lengthStdev): The lookback period for standard deviation in the MACD calculation.
MAC-Z Constant A & B (A, B): Constants used to adjust the impact of the Z-score and MACD in the final MAC-Z formula.
Laguerre Smoothing (useLag, gamma): Optional smoothing using the Laguerre filter to reduce noise.
SMA MAC-Z Length (SZlen): Length of the short SMA applied to the MAC-Z to create crossover signals.
Flat Slope Threshold: Defines the sensitivity for detecting flat trends (default is 0.08).
Usage:
The MAC-Z Indicator is particularly useful for identifying trend reversals, momentum shifts, and spotting overbought/oversold conditions. By filtering out noise using the SMA slope-based coloring, it can help avoid false signals in periods of small oscillations.
Best Timeframes:
This indicator is most effective on longer time periods, such as 4-hour or daily charts, where price movements are more stable and less prone to short-term market noise. Using it on lower timeframes may result in frequent false signals and more "choppy" market conditions.
The background shading and color-coded lines make it easy to spot trend changes, helping traders make informed decisions about entering or exiting trades based on longer-term momentum shifts.
Conclusion:
The MAC-Z Indicator with trend filtering is a powerful tool for identifying momentum-driven market trends. It combines the strengths of Z-scores, MACD, and moving average crossovers to provide clear signals, making it an excellent choice for traders who focus on longer timeframes, such as daily or 4-hour charts, to capture significant trend movements.
Price Action Volumetric Order Blocks [UAlgo]"Price Action Volumetric Order Blocks" indicator aims to identify significant price zones in the market based on a combination of price action and volume analysis. It utilizes the concept of "Order Blocks," which are areas on the chart where large orders are believed to have been placed, influencing price behavior. By analyzing price swings and volume activity, the indicator attempts to highlight potential support and resistance levels.
🔶 Key Features
Swing Length: This input allows you to adjust the timeframe used to identify price swings for order block detection. A longer swing length will focus on larger timeframes and potentially capture stronger order blocks.
Show Last X Order Blocks: This controls the number of order blocks displayed on the chart. You can choose to visualize a specific number of the most recent order blocks.
Violation Check: This setting determines how the indicator identifies potential order block violations. You can choose between "Wick" or "Close" violations. A "Wick" violation occurs when the price (wick) extends beyond the order block boundaries, while a "Close" violation signifies that the closing price breaches the order block.
Hide Overlap: This option allows you to manage the display of overlapping order blocks. If set to "True," only non-overlapping order blocks will be shown, potentially offering a clearer visualization.
Colors: You can customize the color scheme for bullish (upward) and bearish (downward) order blocks to enhance visual clarity on the chart.
🔶 Interpreting the Indicator
Order Blocks: The teal-colored boxes represent bullish order blocks, indicating areas of demand where buying pressure is likely to be strong. Red-colored boxes represent bearish order blocks, indicating areas of supply where selling pressure is likely to be dominant. These zones often signal potential reversal points or consolidation areas.
Strength Calculations: The indicator calculates the relative strength of bullish and bearish blocks based on volume. A higher bullish strength indicates stronger buying pressure, while higher bearish strength suggests more selling pressure. Traders can use this information to gauge the strength of a price level and predict future price movements.
Market Structure Lines: The indicator displays horizontal lines to depict the current market structure, labeled as "MSB" (Market Sell Balance) or "BOS" (Break of Structure). These lines can help visualize the prevailing trend direction.
Order Block Violations: When a price wick or close breaches an order block (depending on the chosen violation type), the corresponding order block visualization is removed from the chart. This can signify a potential weakening of the identified support or resistance zone.
🔶 Disclaimer
Use with Caution: This indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only and should not be considered as financial advice. Users should exercise caution and perform their own analysis before making trading decisions based on the indicator's signals.
Not Financial Advice: The information provided by this indicator does not constitute financial advice, and the creator (UAlgo) shall not be held responsible for any trading losses incurred as a result of using this indicator.
Backtesting Recommended: Traders are encouraged to backtest the indicator thoroughly on historical data before using it in live trading to assess its performance and suitability for their trading strategies.
Risk Management: Trading involves inherent risks, and users should implement proper risk management strategies, including but not limited to stop-loss orders and position sizing, to mitigate potential losses.
No Guarantees: The accuracy and reliability of the indicator's signals cannot be guaranteed, as they are based on historical price data and past performance may not be indicative of future results.
Trend/with EMA382Introduction to the "Trend/with EMA382" Indicator
The "Trend/with EMA382" indicator is a powerful technical analysis tool that combines trend signals with Exponential Moving Averages (EMA), offering traders a comprehensive view of market dynamics and helping identify potential trading opportunities.
1. Trend Analysis with Trend
The first part of this indicator uses a trend calculation algorithm based on the recent market highs and lows. These levels are used to determine the primary trend:
Bullish (Uptrend): When the market is in an uptrend, the chart will display buy signals in green.
Bearish (Downtrend): When the market is trending down, sell signals are shown in red.
The crossover points between price and trend levels will indicate buy or sell signals on the chart, enabling traders to easily spot entry and exit points.
2. Combination with EMA382
EMA (Exponential Moving Average) is a crucial tool in technical analysis, helping smooth price data and eliminate insignificant short-term fluctuations. This indicator uses three key EMAs:
EMA 34: Reflects short-term trends.
EMA 89: Helps identify medium-term trends.
EMA 200: Determines long-term trends.
These three EMAs assist traders in identifying the overall direction of the market, allowing them to forecast potential trend developments.
3. Application in Trading
The "Trend/with EMA382" indicator is designed to suit various time frames, from short-term to long-term trading. The combination of trend signals and EMAs helps:
Identify the primary market trend.
Provide accurate entry and exit signals.
Deliver clear signals for risk management and profit optimization.
Conclusion
"Trend/with EMA382" is an effective indicator that offers clear signals for both trend and market momentum. By combining EMAs with trend analysis, this indicator empowers traders to make more informed and precise trading decisions.
EagleVision.V33 - Inside Pin Bar EagleVision.V33 is a specialized indicator designed for traders who focus on price action. It detects and highlights the Inside Pin Bar candle pattern, a key signal that can indicate potential market reversals or trend continuations. This tool is invaluable for traders who rely on precise candlestick patterns to make data-driven decisions.
Features:
• Customizable Pattern Highlighting: EagleVision.V33 allows traders to choose custom colors to highlight Inside Pin Bar patterns directly on the chart. This makes identifying critical trading signals straightforward, even in busy market conditions.
• Pin Bar Candle Customization: Beyond just highlighting, the indicator enables users to change the color of the detected pin bar itself, ensuring that crucial patterns are immediately visible and easy to track.
• Versatile Timeframe Application: The indicator can be applied across various timeframes, from intraday (1 minute, 5 minutes) to longer-term charts (daily, weekly). Users can easily switch between timeframes within the settings, making it adaptable to different trading strategies.
• Enhanced Visual Clarity with Background Highlighting: For traders who prefer additional emphasis, EagleVision.V33 offers an option to apply a background color that highlights the entire region where the Inside Pin Bar pattern is detected.
How It Works:
• Inside Bar Identification: The indicator first identifies an Inside Bar, where a candle’s high and low fall within the range of the preceding candle (the mother bar). This is a foundational pattern in price action trading.
• Pin Bar Detection: It then checks if the candle is a Pin Bar, characterized by a small body and a prominent wick (either upper or lower), which typically signals potential market turning points.
• Pattern Highlighting & Visualization: Upon detecting both conditions (Inside Bar and Pin Bar), EagleVision.V33 highlights the pattern using customizable shapes and colors, and optionally applies a background shade to further enhance visibility.
Use Cases:
• Reversals at Key Levels: The Inside Pin Bar pattern often appears at significant support or resistance levels, signaling potential reversals. EagleVision.V33 helps traders spot these opportunities early.
• Trend Continuations: In trending markets, this pattern can confirm the continuation of a trend, providing traders with the confidence to hold positions or enter new ones.
Customization Options:
• Pattern Highlight Color: Choose a distinct color for the label or shape that marks the Inside Pin Bar pattern, making it stand out against other chart elements.
• Pin Bar Candle Color: Customize the color of the Pin Bar itself, ensuring that it is immediately recognizable on the chart.
• Background Highlighting: Optionally apply a background color to the chart area where the pattern is detected, further enhancing visual clarity and making it easier to spot potential trading opportunities.
Why EagleVision.V33 Stands Out:
EagleVision.V33 is not just another pattern detection tool; it’s engineered for precision and clarity, with highly customizable features that cater to the unique needs of price action traders. By combining both Inside Bar and Pin Bar detection, it offers a powerful edge, providing traders with actionable insights directly on their charts.

N Bar Reversal Detector [LuxAlgo]The N Bar Reversal Detector is designed to detect and highlight N-bar reversal patterns in user charts, where N represents the length of the candle sequence used to detect the patterns. The script incorporates various trend indicators to filter out detected signals and offers a range of customizable settings to fit different trading strategies.
🔶 USAGE
The N-bar reversal pattern extends the popular 3-bar reversal pattern. While the 3-bar reversal pattern involves identifying a sequence of three bars signaling a potential trend reversal, the N-bar reversal pattern builds on this concept by incorporating additional bars based on user settings. This provides a more comprehensive indication of potential trend reversals. The script automates the identification of these patterns and generates clear, visually distinct signals to highlight potential trend changes.
When a reversal chart pattern is confirmed and aligns with the price action, the pattern's boundaries are extended to create levels. The upper boundary serves as resistance, while the lower boundary acts as support.
The script allows users to filter patterns based on the trend direction identified by various trend indicators. Users can choose to view patterns that align with the detected trend or those that are contrary to it.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 The N-bar Reversal Pattern
The N-bar reversal pattern is a technical analysis tool designed to signal potential trend reversals in the market. It consists of N consecutive bars, with the first N-1 bars used to identify the prevailing trend and the Nth bar confirming the reversal. Here’s a detailed look at the pattern:
Bullish Reversal : In a bullish reversal setup, the first bar is the highest among the first N-1 bars, indicating a prevailing downtrend. Most of the remaining bars in this sequence should be bearish (closing lower than where they opened), reinforcing the existing downward momentum. The Nth (most recent) bar confirms a bullish reversal if its high price is higher than the high of the first bar in the sequence (standard pattern). For a stronger signal, the closing price of the Nth bar should also be higher than the high of the first bar.
Bearish Reversal : In a bearish reversal setup, the first bar is the lowest among the first N-1 bars, indicating a prevailing uptrend. Most of the remaining bars in this sequence should be bullish (closing higher than where they opened), reinforcing the existing upward momentum. The Nth bar confirms a bearish reversal if its low price is lower than the low of the first bar in the sequence (standard pattern). For a stronger signal, the closing price of the Nth bar should also be lower than the low of the first bar.
🔹 Min Percentage of Required Candles
This parameter specifies the minimum percentage of candles that must be bullish (for a bearish reversal) or bearish (for a bullish reversal) among the first N-1 candles in a pattern. For higher values of N, it becomes more challenging for all of the first N-1 candles to be consistently bullish or bearish. By setting a percentage value, P, users can adjust the requirement so that only a minimum of P percent of the first N-1 candles need to meet the bullish or bearish condition. This allows for greater flexibility in pattern recognition, accommodating variations in market conditions.
🔶 SETTINGS
Pattern Type: Users can choose the type of the N-bar reversal patterns to detect: Normal, Enhanced, or All. "Normal" detects patterns that do not necessarily surpass the high/low of the first bar. "Enhanced" detects patterns where the last bar surpasses the high/low of the first bar. "All" detects both Normal and Enhanced patterns.
Reversal Pattern Sequence Length: Specifies the number of candles (N) in the sequence used to identify a reversal pattern.
Min Percentage of Required Candles: Sets the minimum percentage of the first N-1 candles that must be bullish (for a bearish reversal) or bearish (for a bullish reversal) to qualify as a valid reversal pattern.
Derived Support and Resistance: Toggles the visibility of the support and resistance levels/zones.
🔹 Trend Filtering
Filtering: Allows users to filter patterns based on the trend indicators: Moving Average Cloud, Supertrend, and Donchian Channels. The "Aligned" option only detects patterns that align with the trend and conversely, the "Opposite" option detects patterns that go against the trend.
🔹 Trend Indicator Settings
Moving Average Cloud: Allows traders to choose the type of moving averages (SMA, EMA, HMA, etc.) and set the lengths for fast and slow moving averages.
Supertrend: Options to set the ATR length and factor for Supertrend.
Donchian Channels: Option to set the length for the channel calculation.

Season ChartThis overlay is built on the idea of seasonal charts.
It is constructed by taking the percentage change from each close and recording that change for every trading day of any year that is within the sample. We then take the average for each day of all the years.
These averages are then cumulated to create the chart as per traditional seasonal chart construction.
I have also taken a trimmed mean of the averages to try and dampen the impact one off moves that may have a dramatic effect on the daily averages (for example the crash to $0 in oil in April 2020) however, even removing 10% may not guarantee one off moves won’t affect the average.
The construction of the chart is completely dependent on the data provided by TradingView and so it is recommended that if longer sample sizes are used, the user go back to check that the years contained within the sample have a full history. Some data may have large gaps in their history and this can distort the seasonality readings.
I have attempted to align the chart with the first trading day of the year, but the start of some months may be out by a day or two as it becomes difficult to track all weeks with differing market holidays closures each year and this in turn varies the total amount of actual trading days in each year as well as leap years.
This overlay is designed for the Daily time frame only and will not work on Crypto or any other instrument that trades outside of usual business weekdays. Future updates may include the ability to adapt to Crypto instruments.

Prometheus StochasticThe Stochastic indicator is a popular indicator developed in the 1950s. It is designed to identify overbought and oversold scenarios on different assets. A value above 80 is considered overbought and a value below 20 is considered oversold.
The formula is as follows:
%k = ((Close - Low_i) / (High_i / Low_i)) * 100
Low_i and High_i represent the lowest low and highest high of the selected period.
The Prometheus version takes a slightly different approach:
%k = ((High - Lowest_Close_i) / (High_i / Low_i)) * 100
Using the Current High minus the Lowest Close provides us with a more robust range that can be slightly more sensitive to moves and provide a different perspective.
Code:
stoch_func(src_close, src_high, src_low, length) =>
100 * (src_high - ta.lowest(src_close, length)) / (ta.highest(src_high, length) - ta.lowest(src_low, length))
This is the function that returns our Stochastic indicator.
What period do we use for the calculation? Let Prometheus handle that, we utilize a Sum of Squared Error calculation to find what lookback values can be most useful for a trader. How we do it is we calculate a Simple Moving Average or SMA and the indicator using a lot of different bars back values. Then if there is an event, characterized by the indicator crossing above 80 or below 20, we subtract the close by the SMA and square it. If there is no event we return a big value, we want the error to be as small as possible. Because we loop over every value for bars back, we get the value with the smallest error. We also do this for the smoothing values.
// Function to calculate SSE for a given combination of N, K, and D
sse_calc(_N, _K, _D) =>
SMA = ta.sma(close, _N)
sf = stoch_func(close, high, low, _N)
k = ta.sma(sf, _K)
d = ta.sma(k, _D)
var float error = na
if ta.crossover(d, 80) or ta.crossunder(d, 20)
error := math.pow(close - SMA, 2)
else
error := 999999999999999999999999999999999999999
error
var int best_N = na
var int best_K = na
var int best_D = na
var float min_SSE = na
// Loop through all combinations of N, K, and D
for N in N_range
for K in K_range
for D in D_range
sse = sse_calc(N, K, D)
if (na(min_SSE) or sse < min_SSE)
min_SSE := sse
best_N := N
best_K := K
best_D := D
int N_opt = na
int K_opt = na
int D_opt = na
if c_lkb_bool == false
N_opt := best_N
K_opt := best_K
D_opt := best_D
This is the section where the best lookback values are calculated.
We provide the option to use this self optimizer or to use your own lookback values.
Here is an example on the daily AMEX:SPY chart. The top Stochastic is the value with the SSE calculation, the bottom is with a fixed 14, 1, 3 input values. We see in the candles with boxes where some potential differences and trades may be.
This is another comparison of the SSE functionality and the fixed lookbacks on the NYSE:PLTR 1 day chart.
Differences may be more apparent on lower time frame charts.
We encourage traders to not follow indicators blindly, none are 100% accurate. SSE does not guarantee that the values generated will be the best for a given moment in time. Please comment on any desired updates, all criticism is welcome!
MACD with DPO Strategy by NGExplanation of the MACD with DPO Strategy:
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence):
The MACD is a trend-following indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of a price.
In this script:
We calculate the MACD line by subtracting the slow moving average (typically 26-period EMA) from the fast moving average (typically 12-period EMA).
The Signal line is calculated as a 9-period EMA of the MACD line.
The Histogram is the difference between the MACD line and the Signal line, indicating the momentum of the price trend.
Buy Condition: The script generates a buy signal when the MACD histogram crosses from negative to positive (indicating a bullish momentum) and DPO is also positive.
Sell Condition: The script generates a sell signal when the MACD histogram crosses from positive to negative (indicating a bearish momentum) and DPO is also negative.
DPO (Detrended Price Oscillator):
The DPO removes long-term trends from prices, making it easier to identify shorter-term cycles or oscillations.
In this script:
We calculate the DPO by subtracting a shifted simple moving average (SMA) from the close price. The shifting period depends on half the specified period.
We also calculate the DPO SMA as a 30-period EMA of the DPO values.
DPO Color: The DPO line is colored green when the DPO is above zero (indicating upward momentum) and red when it is below zero (indicating downward momentum). The histogram is also colored based on whether the DPO is positive or negative.
Plotting and Alerts:
The script plots the MACD, Signal, and Histogram on the chart.
Additionally, it plots the DPO and its SMA with different colors depending on whether the DPO is above or below zero.
Buy Signal: A green arrow labeled "BUY" is plotted below the bar when both MACD and DPO indicate a bullish condition.
Sell Signal: A red arrow labeled "SELL" is plotted above the bar when both MACD and DPO indicate a bearish condition.
Background colors are used to highlight the chart whenever a buy or sell condition occurs.
The script also includes alerts for both buy and sell signals, allowing users to set notifications when conditions are met.
How to Use:
Identify Buy and Sell Signals:
The script generates a Buy signal when:
The MACD histogram crosses from negative to positive (bullish momentum), and
The DPO is above zero (indicating upward momentum).
The script generates a Sell signal when:
The MACD histogram crosses from positive to negative (bearish momentum), and
The DPO is below zero (indicating downward momentum).
Chart Visualization:
The MACD histogram and Signal line help visualize the momentum and potential trend reversal.
The DPO and DPO SMA help visualize the shorter-term price cycles.
The signals (Buy and Sell) will be plotted on the chart with arrows indicating entry points.
Customization:
You can adjust the MACD and DPO parameters (such as fast_length, slow_length, period_) to fit your trading style or market conditions.
The script can be used in any timeframe depending on your strategy (e.g., intraday trading or longer-term trading).
Example Scenario:
If you're looking for potential buy opportunities, wait for the script to generate a buy signal (green arrow) where the MACD histogram has shifted to positive, and DPO is also in the green (above zero). This signals that both momentum and cycle direction are aligned for a potential upward movement.
Conversely, for sell opportunities, wait for the red arrow where MACD momentum is turning negative and DPO is also negative (below zero), indicating a bearish condition.
This combination of MACD and DPO allows traders to identify stronger and more reliable entry/exit points by confirming the trend with the MACD and detecting shorter-term price cycles with the DPO.
