ICT Concept MTF Scanner [Elykia]ICT Concept MTF Scanner Overview The ICT Concept MTF Scanner is the ultimate productivity dashboard for traders using SMC (Smart Money Concepts) and ICT methodologies. Stop switching tabs constantly. This indicator allows you to monitor the market structure (Trend, BOS, CHoCH) of 20 different assets simultaneously, each with its own custom timeframe. It also overlays the structural points and Premium/Discount zones directly on your current chart. Key Features: 📊 Multi-Asset Dashboard: Monitor up to 20 symbols (Indices, Forex, Crypto, Metals) in a single, fully customizable table. clock: Individual Timeframes: Unlike standard screeners, you can set a different timeframe for each ticker (e.g., NQ on 15m, ES on 1h, DXY on 4h). 🧠 Auto-Structure Detection: BOS (Break of Structure): Trend continuation. CHoCH (Change of Character): Trend reversal signal. SMS (Shift in Market Structure): Failure swing. ⚖️ Premium & Discount Zones: Automatically calculates buying (Discount) and selling (Premium) zones based on the Active or Previous range. 🔔 Smart Alerts: Get notified on structural changes or when price enters a Premium/Discount zone. How to use: 1. Ticker Setup: In the settings, select your favorite assets and assign the specific timeframe you want to monitor for each. 2. Sensitivity (Structure): Adjust the "Period" (Pivot Length). A lower value (e.g., 3-5) detects minor structure, while a higher value (e.g., 10-20) reveals the macro trend. 3. Reading the Table: Teal: Bullish Structure. Red: Bearish Structure. Signal: Shows the most recent structural event (BOS or CHoCH).

SMT Alert MTF [Elykia]SMT Alert MTF - Smart Money Divergence Scanner Overview The SMT Alert MTF is an essential productivity tool for traders applying ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and SMC (Smart Money Concepts). An SMT divergence ("Smart Money Technique") is one of the most powerful signals to confirm a trend reversal or market manipulation. It occurs when two highly correlated assets (e.g., Nasdaq and S&P500) move out of sync. Instead of monitoring 3 different charts across 5 different timeframes manually, this indicator scans everything in the background and alerts you the moment a divergence appears. 💎 The Strategy: How to trade SMT? SMT is not a blind entry signal; it is a confirmation tool. 1. The Context: Wait for price to reach a Key Level (POI, Order Block) or perform a Liquidity Sweep. 2. The Signal (Desynchronization): Bullish SMT: Asset A makes a Lower Low, but correlated Asset B makes a Higher Low (Refusal to go lower). This indicates institutional accumulation. Bearish SMT: Asset A makes a Higher High, but correlated Asset B makes a Lower High (Weakness). This indicates distribution. Execution: Once the SMT alert triggers on your timeframe (e.g., M1 or M5), look for a Change of Character (CHoCH) to enter the trade. Key Features & Benefits ⚡ Multi-Timeframe Scanner (MTF): Monitor up to 5 timeframes simultaneously (e.g., 1m, 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h) on a single chart. 🔄 Smart Asset Detection: The script automatically recognizes your current chart and selects the relevant comparison assets: Trading NQ (Nasdaq) -> Compares with ES (S&P500). Trading 6E (Euro) -> Compares with 6B (British Pound). Trading Gold -> Compares with Silver. (You can also manually override with any symbol). 👀 Visual Clarity: A divergence line is drawn directly on price action (Red for Bearish, Blue for Bullish) labeled with the divergent ticker. 🔔 Comprehensive Alerts: Set up specific alerts for each timeframe (e.g., "Alert me only for M5 or M15 SMT"). Recommended Settings 1. Enable M1, M5, and M15 timeframes for intraday scalping. 2. Keep the automatic symbol detection enabled for Indices and Futures. ⚠️ DISCLAIMER This indicator is for educational purposes only. Trading involves a high level of risk. SMT divergences should be used in confluence with other technical analysis factors. The author is not responsible for any financial losses.

NWOG & NDOG - Opening Gaps 🧪 [Pro +] | cephxsNWOG & NDOG - OPENING GAPS 🧪 Smart Gap Detection with Intelligent Filtering Visualizes New Week Opening Gaps (NWOGs) and New Day Opening Gaps (NDOGs) with built-in intelligence to show you only what matters. No more cluttered charts with gaps from 3 months ago that price will never revisit. The Display chart is on default settings with the size filter set to "Juicy Gaps only" THE PROBLEM WITH GAP INDICATORS Most gap indicators dump every single gap on your chart and call it a day. You end up with 100+ boxes cluttering your screen, half of which are miles away from current price and the other half are so tiny they're basically noise. This one's different (That's what they all say). SMART FILTERING (THE GOOD STUFF) Two filters work together to keep your chart clean: Size Filter: Uses ATR-based detection to filter out insignificant gaps - Filter None: Show everything (if you really want chaos) - Filter Insignificant: Hide the micro-gaps that don't matter - Juicy Gaps Only: Only show gaps worth paying attention to (Mostly for HTF trading) Distance Filter: Only displays gaps within range of current price - Really Close: 0.5 ATR - tight focus on immediate levels - Balanced: 1 ATR - sweet spot for most traders - Slightly Far: 3 ATR - wider view for swing traders - ✨ Or just turn off the filter by distance and it becomes like other indicators ✨ The magic: gaps appear and disappear as price moves toward or away from them. Old gaps that price has left behind fade out, and gaps that become relevant fade back in. Remove auto scaling if price is not trending and gaps keep flashing in and out. GAP TYPES EXPLAINED New Week Opening Gaps (NWOGs): The gap between Friday's close and Monday's open. These form over the weekend when markets are closed and often act as significant support/resistance. Two classifications: Void Gaps: Gap direction aligns with Friday's candle direction (continuation) Overlap Gaps: Gap direction conflicts with Friday's candle (potential reversal) New Day Opening Gaps (NDOGs): The gap between one day's close and the next day's open. Smaller but frequent - useful for intraday traders looking for fill targets. FEATURES Automatic Week/Day Detection: Handles forex (17:00 ET open) and futures (18:00 ET open) correctly DST-Aware: Uses New York timezone with automatic daylight saving adjustments 50% Equilibrium Line: Marks the midpoint of each gap - key level for entries Days Ago Labels: Shows how old each gap is at a glance Extension Modes: Choose between live-extending boxes or fixed-width boxes Separate Color Schemes: Different colors for void vs overlap NWOGs, bullish vs bearish NDOGs INPUTS NWOG/NDOG Display Show NWOGs / NDOGS: Master toggle Extension Modes: Maximum NWOGs: Limit displayed gaps Show Void/Overlap Gaps: Toggle each type independently Filter Settings Size Filter: Only Show Near Price: Enable/disable distance filtering Distance Filter: Really Close / Balanced / Slightly Far Styling Box Transparency: Fill and border opacity Midline Style: Solid / Dotted / Dashed Label Style: Simple ("NWOG, 5d ago") or Descriptive ("NWOG (Void Bull), 5d ago") Label Size: Tiny / Small / Normal / Large RECOMMENDED SETTINGS For intraday (1m-15m): Size Filter: Filter Insignificant Distance Filter: Really Close or Balanced Show NDOGs: On Maximum NDOGs: 5-10 For swing trading (1H-4H): Size Filter: Juicy Gaps Only Distance Filter: Balanced or Slightly Far Show NWOGs: On Maximum NWOGs: 10-20 TIMEFRAME NOTES Works on daily timeframe and below. Above daily, the indicator disables itself since NWOG/NDOG gap detection requires daily open/close data. ASSET SUPPORT Automatically handles different market open times: Forex: Futures: Stocks/indices: FAQ Why do gaps appear and disappear? That's the distance filter working. As price moves, gaps that were far away become relevant and appear. Gaps that price leaves behind disappear. This keeps your chart focused on actionable levels. What's the difference between void and overlap gaps? Void gaps continue Friday's direction (trend continuation). Overlap gaps conflict with Friday's direction and don't actually have a volume gap in price. Different traders prefer different types so i chose to differentiate them. Why can't I see any gaps? Check your filter settings. "Juicy Gaps Only" with "Really Close" distance filter is very selective. Try "Filter Insignificant" with "Balanced" for more gaps. Or simply turn off the filter if you are on an asset that has very few/no gaps... The indicator has gone through rigorous testing. DISCLAIMER This indicator is for educational purposes only. Opening gaps are one tool among many - they don't guarantee fills or reversals. Always use proper risk management and never trade based on a single indicator. Past gap fills don't guarantee future performance. Do your own analysis. CHANGELOG Pro +: Added smart size/distance filtering, void/overlap classification, NDOG support, DST-aware timezone handling. Tradingview handles the actual time shift. Base: Initial NWOG visualization Made with ❤️ by cephxs

Fair Value Gaps (Custom)Fair Value Gaps (FVG) - Custom A comprehensive Fair Value Gap indicator designed for futures traders, offering multi-timeframe analysis with full customization of colors, opacity, and visual elements per timeframe. What are Fair Value Gaps? Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) are three-candle patterns where a gap exists between the high of the first candle and the low of the third candle (bullish) or between the low of the first candle and the high of the third candle (bearish). These imbalances often act as support/resistance zones where price tends to return. Key Features Multi-Timeframe Support 5 independent timeframe slots View higher timeframe FVGs on lower timeframe charts Each timeframe has its own color, opacity, label, and midline settings Flexible Fill Methods Any Touch — FVG filled when price touches the zone Midpoint Reached — FVG filled when price reaches 50% of the zone Wick Sweep — FVG filled when wick passes through entire zone Body Beyond — FVG filled when candle body closes beyond the zone Visual Customization Per-timeframe color AND opacity control via color picker Optional midline display per timeframe Customizable labels with fill percentage display Optional borders with style/width settings Boxes can extend to chart edge or fixed bar length Dashboard & Alerts Real-time FVG count dashboard (Bull/Bear above/below price) Alert conditions: Price enters FVG, Midline cross, New FVG formed, FVG filled Recommended Settings for ES/NQ Futures Min Gap Size: 8 ticks (2 points) Fill Method: Body Beyond (most conservative) Default Opacity: 10% (adjust per timeframe as needed) Usage Tips Use higher timeframe FVGs as key support/resistance zones Watch for confluence when multiple timeframe FVGs overlap Midline often acts as the first target/reaction point Combine with other confluence factors (order blocks, volume, etc.)

NC-ALPHA INDEX [Pro Pane] - Smart Money Flow01. THE PROBLEM: MARKET CAP IS A LAGGING INDICATOR Standard crypto indices (like Coin50 or Total Market Cap) are weighted by capitalization. This is a flawed model for active traders because it prioritizes "Dino Coins"—older assets with massive supplies but very little active volume or price discovery. They are heavy, slow, and hide the real story. 02. THE SOLUTION: VOLUME-VELOCITY WEIGHTING The NC-ALPHA INDEX is designed for SMC (Smart Money Concepts) traders who need to see where the real liquidity is flowing right now. Instead of static weighting, this script dynamically adjusts the influence of each asset based on its Real-Time Dollar Volume. High Volume = High Impact: If a specific asset (e.g., SOL, HYPE, or PEPE) is attracting massive liquidity inflow, its weight in the index increases instantly. Low Volume = Low Impact: Assets with no volume ("Zombie coins") have minimal impact on the index line, preventing false signals. 03. THE "MARKET DRIVERS" BASKET The index tracks a curated basket of 10 high-velocity assets representing the current market meta: 1 - Kings: BTC, ETH 2 - Market Leaders: SOL, BNB 3 - High Beta / L1s: SUI Sector Proxies: DOGE (Memes), HYPE (DEX/Perps), AAVE (DeFi), LINK (Infra), XRP. 04. HOW TO TRADE WITH IT A. The Divergence (Trap Detector) If Bitcoin is making a Higher High (HH) at a Key Resistance, but the NC-ALPHA Index is making a Lower High (LH) or stagnating: Signal: The pump is unsupported by broad liquidity. It is likely a "Fake Pump" driven by wash trading or isolated manipulation. High probability of an SFP (Swing Failure Pattern). B. The HUD (Heads-Up Display) The dashboard on the chart shows you exactly what is moving the market. Look at the "W%" (Weight) column. Signal: If an Altcoin (like SUI or HYPE) suddenly exceeds 15-20% weight, a Sector Rotation is occurring. Stop watching BTC and focus on that asset. 05. TECHNICAL NOTES Crash Proof: Built with advanced nz() data handling to prevent the "disappearing line" bug common in composite indices. Usage Rule: For accurate calculation, use this indicator on 24/7 Crypto Charts (BTC, ETH, SOL) rather than Traditional Finance charts (VIX, SPX) to avoid weekend data gaps. Built by KheopsCrypto for the SMC Community.

mrD-Volume Profile HeatmapThis indicator combines advanced volume analysis with institutional-grade visualization techniques to provide traders with a comprehensive view of market structure and liquidity zones. WHAT MAKES THIS UNIQUE: • Proprietary bidirectional volume profiling algorithm that separates buying and selling pressure using VWAP deviation analysis, not standard volume bars • Custom heatmap visualization engine with adaptive gradient calculation based on volume-weighted price distribution across multiple timeframes • Integrated Weekly VWAP with hlc3 weighting for institutional reference levels • Dynamic POC (Point of Control) detection with fixed-height text boxes for clarity • Optimized rendering system that handles 500+ bars efficiently without lag HOW IT WORKS: The algorithm analyzes volume distribution at each price level within the lookback period, applying a proprietary weighting system that considers: 1. Volume-weighted average price (VWAP) deviation to classify volume as bullish/bearish 2. Price levels are binned into customizable rows (bins) for granular analysis 3. Volume bars extend bidirectionally: positive volume (green) extends left, negative volume (red) extends right 4. Heatmap overlay uses multi-level gradient mapping (6-color spectrum) to highlight high volume nodes 5. Weekly VWAP provides macro trend reference with session-based reset logic VOLUME PROFILE MECHANICS: • Calculates volume distribution across price levels using a grid-based binning system • Each bin accumulates volume when the price touches that level • Positive/negative classification based on VWAP position (above = bullish, below = bearish) • POC automatically identifies the price level with maximum volume concentration • Display shows volume intensity through color gradients and bar lengths HEATMAP VISUALIZATION: • Uses exponential gradient multiplier (default 1.9) for enhanced contrast • Color transitions: Dark Blue (low volume) → Cyan → Green → Yellow (high volume) • Transparency-adjusted overlays ensure chart readability • Real-time updates as new volume data arrives WEEKLY VWAP INTEGRATION: • Resets at the start of each trading week (request.security logic) • Uses hlc3 (typical price) as the volume-weighted source • Provides institutional reference level for swing traders • Yellow color (#FFEB3B) for easy identification KEY PARAMETERS: • Period: Lookback window for volume calculations (default: 500 bars) • Bins: Number of price levels for volume distribution (default: 150 rows) • Offset: Horizontal positioning of volume bars (default: 50) • Heatmap Rows: Granularity of heatmap overlay (default: 250) • POC displays actual volume numbers for transparency TRADING APPLICATIONS: → Identify high-volume nodes as support/resistance zones → Detect liquidity clusters where institutional orders concentrate → Spot low-volume areas where price may move quickly (thin zones) → Use bidirectional volume to assess buying vs selling pressure → Combine with Weekly VWAP for multi-timeframe confluence → POC levels often act as price magnets (mean reversion targets) TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION NOTES: • Optimized for intraday to swing timeframes (1m to Daily charts) • Volume calculations use session-based accumulation (no future data) • Box rendering is limited to 500 objects for performance • Gradient calculations use mathematical power functions for smooth transitions • VWAP calculation follows institutional standard (volume-weighted hlc3) RESTRICTIONS: This is a proprietary algorithm.

Pythia — 33 FULLPythia — v33 (Full Edition) Analysis of Structure, Divergences, and Energy Conditions Description Pythia Full visualizes the structural characteristics of price movement and the internal conditions that accompany changes in market behavior. The indicator highlights moments when impulse slows down, when energy diverges from price, when structural inconsistencies appear, or when the market shows early signs of instability. It relies on time-based, price-based, and energy-based metrics, combining them into a unified system of visual elements. ________________________________________ Setup Only five main parameters are required for practical use. The built-in HUD helps evaluate how chosen settings influence the indicator’s behavior. Additional parameters are pre-configured and optimized for a wide range of instruments. ________________________________________ What Pythia Displays • structural conditions associated with changes in movement dynamics • micro- and macro-divergences • areas where impulse slows or loses stability • combinations of energy and price movement (EnergyTrap / PriceTrap) • sudden impulsive spikes • time-based zones where movement compresses or changes character • local flow conditions (Flow) • internal directional metrics (inner-channel logic) These elements form a structural map of the chart, helping to interpret the current movement context. ________________________________________ Core Modules 1. TTC Zones (Time-To-Collapse) Show areas where movement historically loses impulse. Highlight time and price conditions affecting the stability of the current swing. 2. Micro- and Macro-Divergences Micro — local discrepancies between price and MACD. Macro — larger-cycle structural divergences. 3. Energy Conditions Significant micro-divergences receive an energy assessment to distinguish stronger discrepancies from weaker ones. 4. Movement Traps EnergyTrap — elevated energy load with limited price result. PriceTrap — notable price movement with low energy. Both help identify unstable combinations of impulse and result. 5. Impulsive Spikes Mark sharp price expansions, energy surges, and subsequent instability zones. 6. Flow Mode Evaluates local changes in the energy-flow context. 7. Inner-Channel Logic Used internally within Flow to refine directional characteristics of the movement. 8. OR-Impulses Rare energy bursts that help identify structural features of local movement. Interpretation of Chart Markers (1–15) (with version availability: Full / Standard / Lite) ________________________________________ 1 — Pre-Flow Divergence What it is: A divergence displayed in a pale version of the trend color, showing early price-energy discrepancy while price moves in a strong impulse. Why it matters: Signals that a regular divergence may be ignored because the market still has enough momentum to continue without correction. How to use: Not a reversal entry. Wait for impulse weakening or confirmation from traps, micro-divergences, TTC, or the Catcher zone. Versions: (Full, Standard — limited, Lite — not included) ________________________________________ 2 — Regular Bearish Divergence What it is: A classic discrepancy between price and momentum. Why it matters: Shows weakening of the current swing and increases the probability of correction or reversal. How to use: Useful for exits or timing counter-trend entries. Best when combined with traps, TTC, or the Catcher zone. Versions: (Full, Standard, Lite) ________________________________________ 3 — Divergence Energy Indicator What it is: A marker showing how strong the divergence energy load is. Why it matters: Helps separate weak divergences from structurally significant ones. How to use: High-energy divergences carry greater reversal potential. Versions: (Full, Standard — no, Lite — no) ________________________________________ 4 — Trap Cloud: Mass Without Impulse What it is: A cloud indicating significant trade mass with minimal price progress. Why it matters: Shows hidden exhaustion or buildup before a directional change. How to use: When combined with divergences or the Catcher zone, attention increases. Lite uses micro-markers instead of clouds. Versions: (Full, Standard, Lite — limited) ________________________________________ 5 — Trap Cloud: Impulse Without Mass What it is: Shows small clusters of relatively large trades producing impulse without depth. Why it matters: Often indicates unstable or misleading moves. How to use: Strengthens reversal probability when combined with divergences. Versions: (Full, Standard, Lite — limited) ________________________________________ 6 — Post-Impulse Oscillation Window What it is: The time window after an impulse-shift marker (7). Why it matters: Shows whether the new impulse strengthened or faded. How to use: Supports reading the stability of short-term structural breaks. Versions: (Full, Standard — no, Lite — no) ________________________________________ 7 — Instant Impulse-Shift Marker What it is: A marker showing a sudden change in structural impulse. Why it matters: These points often precede short-term acceleration or instability. How to use: Especially meaningful when appearing near traps or divergences. Versions: (Full, Standard — no, Lite — no) ________________________________________ 8 — Growing Price–Energy Discrepancy What it is: Marks increasing separation between price progress and energy behavior. Why it matters: Often precedes divergence formation or weakening of movement. How to use: Use as an early attention signal, especially when clusters appear. Versions: (Full, Standard — no, Lite — no) ________________________________________ 9 — Collapsed Micro-Divergences What it is: Micro-divergences that formed but collapsed. Why it matters: Clusters of such points often reflect hidden weakness. How to use: Multiple collapsed micro-divs frequently precede structural slowing. Versions: (Full, Standard, Lite) ________________________________________ 10 — Low-Energy Uncertainty Cloud What it is: A weak instability cloud similar to marker 7 but less pronounced. Why it matters: Marks zones where the market struggles with direction. How to use: Strengthens reversal context when inside a Catcher zone. Versions: (Full, Standard — no, Lite — no) ________________________________________ 11 — Catcher Zone Marker What it is: Marks the moment a Catcher zone was created. Why it matters: Even if the zone collapses, the marker remains as evidence of structural preparation. How to use: If traps or divergences appear afterward, reversal probability increases. Versions: (Full, Standard, Lite) ________________________________________ 12 — Catcher Zone (Forecast Window for Divergence) What it is: A dynamic zone predicting where a divergence is most likely to appear. Why it matters: Helps anticipate reversal signals earlier and with better timing. How to use: Divergences born inside the zone are significantly stronger. Standard and Lite preserve full functionality with simplified visuals. Versions: (Full, Standard — limited visuals, Lite — limited visuals) ________________________________________ 13 — Divergence Probation Start What it is: Beginning of the window where divergence must prove itself. Why it matters: If no structural reaction appears, the signal weakens. How to use: Watch traps, micro-divs, and impulse slowdown during this interval. Versions: (Full, Standard — limited, Lite — not included) ________________________________________ 14 — Divergence Probation End What it is: The final point where divergence should manifest. Why it matters: If no reaction occurs, the market transitions into Flow and the divergence becomes irrelevant. How to use: If price does not react by this point — ignore the divergence. Versions: (Full, Standard — limited, Lite — not included) ________________________________________ 15 — Catcher HUD (Forecast Accuracy Panel) What it is: A panel showing how many divergences the Catcher predicted and how many were confirmed by the market. Why it matters: Helps tune the indicator without guesswork. How to use: Adjust parameters and observe how HUD accuracy changes instantly. Optimizes Pythia for each instrument and timeframe. Versions: (Full, Standard, Lite) ________________________________________ Note from the Developers Pythia marks the exact areas where the market can mislead you. So here is a simple and practical rule: Do not step into the places where the markers stand.)

Pythia — 33 STANDARTPythia — v33 (Standard Edition) Structural Movement Analysis, Divergences, Flow, and Traps Overview Pythia Standard is built on the same structural core as the Full Edition and focuses on practical trading tasks: timely detection of divergences, slowdown zones, traps, and local flow transitions. It highlights areas where impulse loses strength, where price disagrees with internal energy, and where movement enters higher-risk structural states. The Standard Edition removes specialized modules (news impulses, extended channel geometry, advanced visuals) while preserving all essential structural and energy logic. Configuration Only several base parameters are required in real use (MACD lengths, pivot sensitivity, structural thresholds). Internal coefficients for TTC, Flow, and energy filters are pre-optimized, reducing the number of visible inputs. Alerts for the key signal groups are available directly in the settings. What Pythia Standard Displays • structural conditions where movement changes behaviour • micro- and macro-divergences • zones where impulse slows down or becomes unstable • movement traps:  – EnergyTrap — strong energy, weak price result  – PriceTrap — strong price move, weak internal energy • TTC time- and price-based zones where movement contracts or shifts • full Flow-mode, showing local energy-flow transitions • inner-channel directional context • rare OR-impulse spikes (high-intensity bursts) Together these elements form a compact structural map of the market — without the heavier Full-Edition modules. Key Modules 1. TTC Zones (Time-To-Collapse) Highlight areas where momentum historically weakens. Reflect how far a structure can extend in time and price before losing stability. 2. Micro and Macro Divergences Micro — local short-cycle structural breaks. Macro — larger movements with stronger implications. Both scales are available, with sensitivity controlled by MACD and T3 filters. 3. Flow Mode Tracks local changes in the energy-flow context. Identifies transitions between: • probation flow • confirmed flow • false flow A useful tool for assessing whether the current movement is stable or weakening. 4. Movement Traps (EnergyTrap / PriceTrap) EnergyTrap — strong internal energy, weak price response. PriceTrap — strong price expansion with weak energy. Both conditions mark vulnerable structural states where movement often breaks or changes behaviour. 5. OR-Impulses Identify rare high-impulse events combining price expansion, an internal energy surge, and post-event instability. Useful for recognising structurally important segments. 6. TTC Grids & Alerts Pythia Standard includes TTC grids (with adjustable transparency) and alerts for: • micro/macro divergences • Flow states • movement traps • TTC structural conditions News-impulse alerts and extended channel geometry remain exclusive to the Full Edition. Release Notes Pythia — v33 (Standard Edition) uses the same structural-energy engine as the Full Edition while excluding news impulses and extended geometry modules. Optimized for everyday trading: divergences, Flow, traps, TTC zones, and core alerts — with fewer inputs and a cleaner interface.

Collapse Map v2.1 — Saël Lab⭐ Collapse Map — Experimental Module (Free Access) Structural Weakness Map & Early Trend Exhaustion Collapse Map is an experimental module by Saël Lab, designed to highlight areas where a price movement shows signs of structural weakening and begins to lose stability. It is not a classical divergence indicator. Collapse Map does not compare swing highs/lows with oscillator peaks. Instead, it evaluates the overall tone of momentum and identifies moments when a move starts to “break down” even before traditional reversal patterns appear. 🔍 What Collapse Map Shows The indicator automatically marks two types of weakening zones: • Bear Collapse Appears when upward movement starts to lose stability. Displayed as a red semi-transparent window. • Bull Collapse Appears when downward movement begins to exhaust. Displayed as a green window. Each zone provides: a potential area of trend weakening, an approximate duration during which the zone may remain relevant, an indicative energy level, reflecting the strength of the weakening. All zones are generated automatically — no manual interaction required. 🧪 Development Status Collapse Map is a new experimental tool from Saël Lab. It is published as part of an ongoing research branch and may be expanded or refined in future releases. Access is free. Feedback is welcome.

TrapMap Pro — Saël LabTrapMap PRO — Saël Lab TrapMap PRO — Saël Lab TrapMap PRO is an extended visual version of TrapMap Basic, built on the same concept of imbalance between movement energy and the actual price result. The logic is fully identical to the Basic version. TrapMap PRO does not change the algorithm — only the presentation. Main Difference in PRO PRO uses a cloud-based visualization that: • highlights traps softly and minimally, • avoids clutter from labels and text, • makes imbalance zones visible “from the corner of your eye” and intuitively readable, • keeps the chart clean and calm even during active market phases. Two Types of Traps 1) EnergyTrap — strong internal effort, weak price result Appears when the market shows internal activity: • accelerated impulse, • rising pressure, • a sequence of “live” bars, • many small-sized trades. …but the price barely reacts. Often signals: • absorbed liquidity, • blocked breakout attempts, • false internal strength, • presence of a larger participant holding the move. 2) PriceTrap — large price move with weak internal structure Price travels far beyond the norm: • sharp push, • long candles, • movement above expected ATR. …but the internal structure is weak: • few trades but large in size, • low acceleration, • insufficient pressure for a true impulse. Typical cases: • trend exhaustion, • manipulative spikes, • stop-runs, • momentum “on empty”, without actual support. Where TrapMap PRO is Useful • early detection of manipulation, • separating genuine impulses from fake ones, • more precise recognition of false breakouts, • identifying structural weakness zones. Works on all markets and timeframes. © Saël Lab Created through the dialogue of analysis and intelligence.

Nexural ORB Nexural ORB - Multi-Timeframe Opening Range Breakout Indicator Introduction This indicator was built out of frustration. After testing dozens of ORB tools, both free and paid, I found that most of them either did too little or cluttered the chart with unnecessary information. The Opening Range Breakout is one of the oldest and most reliable intraday strategies, yet most indicators treat it as an afterthought - just a box on the chart with no context. This is not that kind of indicator. The Nexural Ultimate ORB tracks the Opening Range across three timeframes simultaneously, provides quality scoring to help you identify high-probability setups, detects when multiple levels align for confluence, and now includes historical ORB data so you can scroll back and review previous sessions. It does not tell you when to buy or sell. It does not promise profits. What it does is give you clean, accurate levels with the context you need to make informed decisions. I am going to be completely transparent about what this indicator does, how it works, what it does well, and where it falls short. If you are looking for a magic solution that prints money, this is not it. If you are looking for a professional-grade tool that will become a permanent part of your charting setup, keep reading. What Is The Opening Range Breakout Before diving into the indicator itself, let me explain the strategy it is built around. The Opening Range is simply the high and low price established during the first portion of the trading session. For US equities and futures, this typically begins at 9:30 AM Eastern Time. The theory behind trading the Opening Range is straightforward: the first 15, 30, or 60 minutes of trade often sets the tone for the rest of the day. Institutional traders, algorithms, and market makers are all actively positioning during this window, and the levels they establish become reference points for the remainder of the session. When price breaks above the Opening Range High, it suggests bullish momentum and the potential for continuation higher. When price breaks below the Opening Range Low, it suggests bearish momentum and the potential for continuation lower. The strategy has been used by floor traders for decades and remains relevant today because the underlying market dynamics have not changed - the open is when the most information gets priced in, and the levels established during that period matter. This indicator does not trade the ORB for you. It identifies the levels, tracks multiple timeframes, and provides context. The actual trading decisions are yours. How The Opening Range Is Calculated The indicator calculates the Opening Range for three timeframes: The 15-Minute ORB captures the high and low from 9:30 AM to 9:45 AM. This is the shortest timeframe and typically produces the tightest range. Breakouts from the 15-minute ORB tend to occur earliest in the session and can provide early directional signals, though they are also more prone to false breakouts due to the narrow range. The 30-Minute ORB captures the high and low from 9:30 AM to 10:00 AM. This is considered by many institutional traders to be the most significant timeframe. The 30-minute window allows enough time for the initial volatility to settle while still capturing the core opening activity. Many professional trading desks reference the 30-minute ORB as their primary intraday framework. The 60-Minute ORB captures the high and low from 9:30 AM to 10:30 AM. This is the widest range and produces fewer signals, but those signals tend to be more reliable. The 60-minute ORB is particularly useful on high-volatility days when the 15 and 30-minute ranges get quickly violated. The calculation itself is simple. As each bar completes during the opening period, the indicator compares the current high and low to the stored values and updates them if new extremes are reached. Once the timeframe completes, the levels lock in and do not change for the rest of the session. I want to be absolutely clear about one thing: there is no repainting. The ORB levels are calculated in real-time as the opening period develops. Once a timeframe completes, those levels are final. You will not look back at your chart and see different levels than what appeared in real-time. This is critically important for any indicator you use for actual trading decisions. Visual Hierarchy and Line Styles One of the main problems with multi-timeframe indicators is visual clutter. When you have six lines on the chart representing three different ORBs, it becomes difficult to quickly identify which level belongs to which timeframe. This indicator solves that problem through a clear visual hierarchy. Each timeframe has its own color, line width, and line style, all of which are fully customizable. By default, the 15-Minute ORB uses solid lines with the heaviest weight. This makes it the most prominent on the chart because it is typically the first level to be tested and often the most actively traded. The 30-Minute ORB uses dashed lines with a medium weight. This keeps it visible but clearly secondary to the 15-minute levels. The 60-Minute ORB uses dotted lines with a medium weight. This places it in the background as a reference level rather than an active trading zone. You can change any of these settings. If you prefer to trade the 30-minute ORB exclusively, you can make it solid and bold while keeping the others subtle. If you only want to see the 60-minute ORB, you can disable the other two entirely. The flexibility is there because every trader has different preferences. The dashboard in the top right corner of the chart displays the corresponding line style next to each timeframe, so you always know which line on the chart matches which row in the dashboard. The Quality Scoring System Not every Opening Range is worth trading. Some days produce tight, clean ranges with strong follow-through. Other days produce wide, choppy ranges that lead to multiple false breakouts. One of the most valuable features of this indicator is the Quality Score, which grades each session from A-plus down to C. The Quality Score is calculated based on several factors: Range Size is the most important factor. The indicator compares the current ORB range to the average daily range over the past 20 sessions. A tight range, defined as less than 40 percent of the average daily range, receives the highest score. The logic here is simple: tight ranges indicate consolidation, and consolidation often precedes expansion. When the ORB is tight, a breakout has more room to run. A normal range, between 40 and 80 percent of the average daily range, receives a moderate score. These are typical trading days without any particular edge from a range perspective. A wide range, greater than 80 percent of the average daily range, receives the lowest score. When the ORB is already wide, much of the day's move may have already occurred during the opening period, leaving less opportunity for breakout continuation. Volume is the second factor. Above-average volume during the opening period indicates genuine institutional participation. The indicator compares the current volume to the 20-bar average. Significantly elevated volume adds to the quality score, while below-average volume does not penalize the score but does not help it either. Day of Week matters more than most traders realize. Statistical studies of market behavior consistently show that Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday produce cleaner trending days than Monday or Friday. Monday mornings often see erratic price action as the market digests weekend news and repositions. Friday afternoons often see reduced participation as traders close out positions before the weekend. The quality score reflects these tendencies by adding points for mid-week sessions and subtracting points for Monday mornings and Friday afternoons. Overnight Activity is relevant primarily for futures traders. If the overnight session produced a significant range, defined as greater than half of the average true range, it suggests that institutions were active during the overnight hours. This often leads to more directional behavior during the regular session. The quality score is displayed in the dashboard as a letter grade. A-plus indicates excellent conditions across multiple factors. A indicates good conditions. B indicates average conditions. C indicates below-average conditions that warrant caution. I want to be honest about the limitations of this system. The quality score is a guideline, not a guarantee. A C-rated day can still produce a profitable breakout. An A-plus day can still result in a failed breakout that reverses. The score helps you calibrate your expectations and position sizing, but it does not predict the future. Confluence Detection Confluence occurs when multiple significant price levels cluster together within a tight range. When the 15-minute ORB high aligns with the overnight high, or when the ORB low sits right at the session opening price, you have confluence. These zones tend to produce stronger reactions because multiple types of traders are watching the same level. The indicator automatically detects confluence using a tolerance-based system. By default, the tolerance is set to 0.15 percent of price. This means that if two levels are within 0.15 percent of each other, they are considered confluent. The levels that are checked for confluence include the Session Opening Price, which is the exact price at 9:30 AM. This level matters because it represents the point where the market transitioned from overnight to regular session trading. Many traders reference the opening print throughout the day. The Overnight High and Low are also checked. For futures markets, this includes all trading from 6:00 PM the previous evening through 9:29 AM. For stocks, this includes extended hours trading. These levels represent the extremes established before the regular session began. Finally, the indicator checks whether the ORB levels from different timeframes align with each other. When the 15-minute high matches the 30-minute high, that level gains additional significance. When confluence is detected, two things happen on the chart. First, the affected ORB line changes color to gold, making it visually obvious that this level has additional significance. Second, the dashboard displays a Confluence row at the bottom, alerting you to the condition. The Confluence label also appears directly on the chart, positioned within the ORB zone so you can immediately see where the confluence exists. Smart Label System A common problem with indicators that display multiple price levels is label overlap. When you have six ORB levels plus auxiliary levels like the session open and overnight high and low, the right side of the chart can become a cluttered mess of overlapping text. This indicator solves that problem with a smart labeling system that combines matching levels. If the 15-minute low, 30-minute low, and 60-minute low are all at the same price, instead of displaying three separate labels, the indicator displays a single label that reads 15L/30L/60L followed by the price. The system uses a tolerance of 2 percent of the ORB range to determine whether levels are close enough to combine. This keeps the labels clean while still displaying separate labels when levels are meaningfully different. The labels are positioned to the right of the current price action, extending beyond the last bar so they remain visible as new bars form. Each label includes the level identifier and the exact price value. Historical ORB Display This feature addresses one of the most common limitations of ORB indicators: the inability to see previous sessions when scrolling back through your chart. With the history feature enabled, the indicator stores ORB data for up to 20 previous sessions. When you scroll back in time, you will see the ORB levels for each historical session, drawn from the session start to the session end. Historical ORBs are displayed with slightly faded colors, using 50 percent transparency compared to the current session. This creates a clear visual distinction between current and historical levels while still allowing you to analyze past price action relative to those levels. The history depth is configurable. You can set it anywhere from 1 to 20 days depending on your needs. If you primarily care about the current session and the previous day for context, set it to 1 or 2. If you want to analyze an entire week or more of ORB behavior, increase the setting. You can also disable the history feature entirely by enabling Current Session Only mode. This returns the indicator to showing only the active session, which some traders prefer for a cleaner chart during live trading. Breakout Detection and Filters The indicator marks breakouts with triangle signals. A green triangle below the bar indicates a bullish breakout above the ORB high. A red triangle above the bar indicates a bearish breakout below the ORB low. However, not every crossing of an ORB level represents a valid breakout worth acting on. The indicator includes several filters to reduce false signals. The Volume Filter requires that volume on the breakout bar be at least 1.2 times the 20-bar average volume. You can adjust this multiplier in the settings. The logic is straightforward: breakouts on weak volume are more likely to fail. A genuine breakout that is going to follow through should be accompanied by above-average participation. The Time Filter prevents breakout signals after a specified hour. The default is 2:00 PM Eastern. The rationale is that late-session breakouts often lack follow-through because there is not enough trading time remaining for the move to develop. You can adjust or disable this filter based on your trading style. The Single Trigger mechanism ensures that each breakout fires exactly once per session. If price crosses above the ORB high, you will see one bullish signal on the bar where the crossing occurred. If price subsequently pulls back and crosses above again, you will not see a second signal. This prevents signal spam and keeps your chart clean. The indicator also includes Reclaim Detection. If price breaks out and then returns back inside the ORB zone, you will see a warning signal marked with an X. This condition often indicates a failed breakout and potential reversal. It is not a trade signal, but rather information that the breakout you just witnessed may not be valid. Range Extensions Once the ORB is established, many traders look for profit targets based on the range itself. The indicator includes extension levels that project multiples of the ORB range above and below the extremes. By default, two extension levels are shown: 1.0 times the range and 1.5 times the range. If the 15-minute ORB is 50 points, the 1.0 extension above the high would be 50 points above the high, and the 1.5 extension would be 75 points above the high. These extensions serve as potential profit targets for breakout trades. The 1.0 extension represents a measured move equal to the ORB itself. The 1.5 extension represents a slightly more ambitious target. You can adjust the extension multipliers in the settings. Some traders prefer 0.5 and 1.0. Others prefer 1.0 and 2.0. The flexibility is there to match your trading approach. The extension lines are displayed as faint dotted lines so they do not compete visually with the ORB levels themselves. The labels show the multiplier value along with the exact price. ## The Midline The 50 percent level of the ORB, known as the midline, is displayed as a dashed line within the ORB zone. This level matters because it often acts as short-term support or resistance during consolidation periods within the range. When price is trading inside the ORB and approaches the midline, you may see a reaction. The midline can also serve as a reference for whether price is showing strength or weakness within the range. If price is spending most of its time above the midline, that suggests a bullish bias even before a breakout occurs. If price is spending most of its time below the midline, that suggests a bearish bias. The midline can be disabled in the settings if you prefer a cleaner chart. The Dashboard The dashboard is positioned in the top right corner of the chart and provides all relevant ORB information at a glance. The header row displays the indicator name, the current Quality Score grade, the Range Classification, and the Session Status. The Range Classification shows whether the current 15-minute ORB is Tight, Normal, or Wide compared to the 20-day average. This gives you immediate context about whether the range is unusual in either direction. The Session Status shows whether the market is currently in session or closed. A green Live indicator means the session is active. A red Closed indicator means the session has ended. Below the header, each timeframe row displays the following information: The Timeframe column shows 15m, 30m, or 60m along with a visual indicator of the line style you have selected for that timeframe. The High column displays the ORB high price for that timeframe. The Low column displays the ORB low price for that timeframe. The Range column displays the distance between high and low. The Status column shows the current state. Before the ORB completes, this shows a countdown of minutes remaining. After completion, it shows whether the price has broken out bullish, broken out bearish, or remains in range. Below the timeframe rows, the Distance row shows how far the current price is from the nearest ORB level. This helps you gauge whether price is approaching a potential breakout zone. If confluence is detected, a highlighted row appears at the bottom of the dashboard indicating that significant level alignment exists. Supported Markets and Sessions The indicator supports multiple market types with appropriate session times: US Stocks use a session from 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM Eastern. US Futures use a session from 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM Eastern, with overnight tracking from 6:00 PM the previous evening. Forex uses a 24-hour session since the market trades continuously. Crypto uses a 24-hour session since the market trades continuously. Custom allows you to define your own session times for markets not covered by the presets. The timezone is configurable. The default is America/New_York, but you can change it to Chicago, Los Angeles, London, Tokyo, or UTC depending on your location and preference. Settings Overview The settings are organized into logical groups: General settings include the market type, current session only toggle, and history days. Session settings include custom session times and timezone selection. ORB Timeframes settings include individual toggles for showing or hiding each timeframe, color selection, line width, and line style. This is where you customize the visual appearance of each ORB level. Quality Scoring settings include the ATR period and range comparison lookback. These affect how the quality score is calculated. Confluence Detection settings include the tolerance percentage and toggles for the session open and overnight high and low levels. Breakout Settings include the volume filter toggle and multiplier, time filter toggle and cutoff hour, and reclaim detection toggle. Visuals settings include toggles for the fill zone, labels, dashboard, distance display, and midline. Extensions settings include toggles for showing extensions and the multiplier values for each extension level. How I Use This Indicator I will share my personal approach, though you should adapt it to your own style. First, I wait for the ORB to complete. I do not trade during the first 15 to 30 minutes of the session. The levels are still forming, and the price action during this window is often erratic. I let the dust settle and the range establish itself. Second, I check the Quality Score. If it is an A or A-plus day with a tight range and good volume, I am more aggressive. If it is a C day with a wide range on a Friday afternoon, I am either sitting on my hands or trading with reduced size. Third, I look for confluence. If the 15-minute high is sitting right at the overnight high, that level has additional significance. Breakouts through confluence zones tend to be more decisive. Fourth, I confirm with volume. Even though the indicator filters for volume, I still glance at the volume bars. I want to see that breakout candle have conviction. Fifth, I manage expectations based on range type. If the ORB is tight, I expect an explosive move and give the trade room to develop. If the ORB is wide, I expect choppier action and tighten my parameters. Sixth, I use the distance reading. If price is already 50 points beyond the ORB high and the range was only 40 points, I have missed the move. Chasing extended price is not smart trading. Honest Pros and Cons What this indicator does well: It provides clean, accurate ORB levels that do not repaint. This is the foundation, and it is done correctly. It offers multi-timeframe tracking with clear visual differentiation. You can see all three ORBs at once without confusion. The quality scoring system helps you avoid low-probability setups. It is not perfect, but it adds valuable context. The confluence detection highlights significant level alignment automatically. This saves you from manually checking multiple levels. The smart label system prevents visual clutter. Labels combine when appropriate and remain readable. The historical ORB display allows you to scroll back and review previous sessions. This is valuable for analysis and pattern recognition. The customization is extensive. Every visual element can be adjusted to match your preferences. It works across stocks, futures, forex, and crypto with appropriate session handling. What this indicator does not do: It does not give you buy and sell signals with entries and exits. This is a levels and analysis tool, not a trading system. It does not include backtesting or performance tracking. You need a separate strategy tester for that. It does not guarantee that breakouts will follow through. The filters help, but failed breakouts still occur. The quality score is a guideline, not a prediction. Low-quality days can still produce good trades. High-quality days can still produce losing trades. The confluence detection is proximity-based. It identifies when levels are near each other but does not know if those levels are actually significant to other traders. Technical limitations to be aware of: On chart timeframes larger than 15 minutes, the ORB calculation becomes less precise because you have fewer bars in the opening period. This indicator works best on 1 to 15 minute charts. The overnight high and low tracking works best on futures. Stocks do not have true overnight sessions in the same way. If your chart does not have volume data, the volume filter will not function properly. Risk Management This section is not about the indicator. It is about trading. No indicator, no matter how well designed, can protect you from poor risk management. Before you trade any ORB breakout, you need to define your risk. Where is your stop? A common approach is to place the stop on the opposite side of the ORB zone. If you are taking a bullish breakout above the high, your stop goes below the low. This means your risk is the full ORB range plus any slippage. Is that risk acceptable? If the ORB range is 100 points and you are trading a 50 dollar per point contract, your risk is 5000 dollars plus commissions. Can you afford that loss? If not, either reduce your size or skip the trade. Where is your target? The extensions provide potential targets, but you need to decide in advance where you will take profits. Hoping for an unlimited run while watching your profits evaporate is not a strategy. What is your win rate? ORB breakouts do not work every time. Depending on the market and conditions, you might win 50 to 60 percent of the time. That means you will have losing trades. Are you prepared for a string of three or four losers in a row? It will happen. None of this is specific to this indicator. It applies to all trading. But I include it here because I see too many traders focus on the indicator while ignoring the fundamentals of risk management. The indicator can help you identify setups. It cannot manage your risk for you. Final Thoughts I built this indicator for my own trading, then refined it to the point where I felt comfortable sharing it. It is not a holy grail. It will not make you profitable if you do not already have a trading process. What it will do is give you clean, accurate ORB levels with context that most indicators do not provide. The Opening Range Breakout works because institutions and algorithms reference these same levels. When the first 30 or 60 minutes of trading establishes a range, that becomes a reference point for the rest of the session. This indicator makes those levels visible and adds intelligence around when they are worth paying attention to. Use it as a tool, not a crutch. Combine it with your own analysis. Manage your risk properly. And please, do not trade with money you cannot afford to lose. If you have questions or feedback, I am actively maintaining this indicator and will consider feature requests for future updates. Trade well.
