MP SESSIONS, DST, OTTHere’s a clear description you can use for this script (for yourself or as a TradingView “Indicator Description”):
---
### MP SESSIONS, DST, OTT – What this indicator does
This script is a **multi-session market timing tool** that:
1. **Draws full trading sessions on the chart** (Asia, Sydney, Tokyo, Shanghai, Europe, London, New York, NYSE)
2. **Automatically adjusts for Daylight Saving Time (DST)** for Sydney, London, and New York
3. **Shows a live info table** with session times, DST status, and whether each session is currently open or closed
4. **Adds optional custom “OTT” vertical lines** at user-defined intraday times (for your own models, killzones, or time blocks)
---
### Main Features (high level)
#### 1. Market mode & time zone handling
* **Market Mode**:
* `Forex`
* `Stock`
* `User Custom` (you type your own session ranges)
* `TFlab suggestion` (predefined “optimized” session times)
* **Time Zone Mode**:
* `UTC`
* `Session Local Time` (local exchange time: Sydney, Tokyo, London, New York etc.)
* `Your Time Zone` (converts to the user-selected TZ, e.g. `UTC-4:00`)
* Handles separate time zones for:
* Asia, Sydney, Tokyo, Shanghai, Europe, London, New York, NYSE
* Has logic to **recalculate session start/end depending on DST** and the chosen mode.
---
#### 2. Daylight Saving Time (DST) engine
The function `DST_Detector`:
* Calculates when DST **starts and ends** for:
* `Australia/Sydney`
* `Europe/London`
* `America/New_York`
* Detects the correct Sunday (2nd, 4th, etc.) for start/end using day-of-week and week counts.
* Returns `'Active'` or `'Inactive'` for each region.
* These values are then used to **shift the sessions** (e.g. New York 13:00–21:00 vs 12:00–20:00 in UTC).
The script can also **draw vertical lines** on the chart when DST starts/ends and label them:
* “Sydney DST Started / Ended”
* “London DST Started / Ended”
* “New York DST Started / Ended”
---
#### 3. Session timing & sessions on the chart
The function `Market_TimeZone_Calculator`:
* Based on **Market Mode** + **Time Zone Mode** + **DST state**, it returns:
* Time ranges for: Sydney, Tokyo, Shanghai, Asia (combined), Europe, London, New York, NYSE
* These ranges are in `"HHMM-HHMM"` format.
Then the script:
* Converts these to `time()` conditions using the proper time zone
* Creates boolean series like `On_sesAsia`, `On_sesEurope`, `On_sesNewYork`, etc., which are **1 when the session is open and 0 when closed**.
---
#### 4. Session high/low boxes & labels
The function `LowHighSessionDetector`:
* Tracks **high and low of each session** while it’s active.
* When a new session starts:
* Resets and starts recording the session high/low.
* While session is active:
* Updates `High` with the max of current bar high and previous session high.
* Updates `Low` with the min of current bar low and previous session low.
* When the session is "on":
* Draws a **box** from session low to high (`box.new`) and extends it to the right as long as the session continues.
* Places a **label with session name** (Asia, London, New York, etc.) near the high:
* Style depends on the session (down/right/left).
You have visibility toggles per session:
* `Asia Session`, `Sydney Session`, `Tokyo Session`, `Shanghai Session`, `Europe Session`, `London Session`, `New York Session`, `NYSE` (for TFlab mode).
So you visually see:
* A shaded box for each session
* The full H/L range for that session
* A text label with the session name.
---
#### 5. Info table
The indicator builds a **table in a corner of the chart** showing:
* Header:
* “FOREX Session”, “Stock Market Trading Hours”, “User Custom Session”, or “TFlab suggestion” depending on mode.
* Columns:
1. Session name (Asia, Sydney, Tokyo, Shanghai, Europe, London, New York, NYSE)
2. DST status for that region (“Active 🌞 / Inactive 🍂 / Not Observed”)
3. Session **start time**
4. Session **end time**
5. Current **status** (“Open / Closed”, with green/red background)
The function `SplitFunction`:
* Parses the `"HHMM-HHMM"` strings for each session.
* Converts them into:
* Either raw times (if viewing in UTC/session local)
* Or converted times in **Your Time Zone** using `timestamp` and `hour/ minute` with `YourTZ`.
* Returns formatted `Start` and `End` strings like `9:30`, `13:00`, etc.
So the table is effectively a **live session schedule** that:
* Auto-adjusts to DST
* Can show times in your own time zone
* Shows which session is open right now.
---
#### 6. OTT vertical lines (custom intraday markers)
At the bottom, there is an **OTT section** which lets you draw up to **three sets of vertical lines** at specific times:
* Each OTT block has:
* Enable toggle (`Enable OTT 1/2/3`)
* Start hour & minute
* End hour & minute
* Color
* Global OTT settings:
* Line style: `Solid / Dashed / Dotted`
* Line width
* Toggle: “Show OTT Labels?”
Logic:
* `is_ott_time()` checks if current bar’s `hour` and `minute` match the OTT input time.
* `draw_ott()`:
* When the bar time matches, draws a **vertical line** through the candle from low to high (`extend.both`).
* Optionally adds a label above the bar, like `"OTT1 Start"`, `"OTT1 End"`, etc.
Use cases:
* Marking **open/close of your trading session**
* Defining **killzones**, news times, or custom model windows
* Visual anchors for your intraday routine (NY open, 10 AM candle, etc.)
---
### TL;DR
This indicator is a **session toolkit + DST engine + time markers**:
* **Visually paints the main global sessions** with boxes and labels.
* **Handles DST automatically** for Sydney, London, New York.
* **Shows a live table** with session times, DST status, and open/closed status in your time zone.
* **Adds up to three configurable vertical time markers (OTT)** for custom session windows or key times.

**Why It's Dangerous:**
- Stop hunts are common
- Whipsaws everywhere
- News-driven volatility
- No technical reliability
- Even "perfect" setups fail
**When Does It End:**
- Volatility ratio drops < 1.5
- ADX starts rising (direction appears)
- Price respects support/resistance again
- Usually 1-5 days
---
## CONFLUENCE SYSTEM
### How It Works
The system scores each potential entry on 5 factors. More factors aligning = higher probability.
### Confluence Requirements by Regime
**Trending Regimes** (strictest):
- Minimum 2/5 required
- 3/5 = Good
- 4-5/5 = Excellent
**Ranging Regimes** (moderate):
- Minimum 1-2/5 required
- 2/5 = Good
- 3+/5 = Excellent
**Consolidation** (breakout only):
- Volume is most critical
- Direction confirmation
- Less confluence needed
### Adjusting Minimum Confluence
**If too few signals:**
- Lower from 2 to 1
- More trades, lower quality
**If too many false signals:**
- Raise from 2 to 3
- Fewer trades, higher quality
**Recommendation:**
- Start at 2
- Adjust based on win rate
- Aim for 55-65% win rate

#### 3. Minimum Confluence
- **1** = More signals, lower quality
- **2** = Balanced (recommended)
- **3** = Fewer signals, higher quality
- **4** = Very selective
- **5** = Almost never triggers
**Impact:** Higher = fewer but better trades
#### 4. ADX Thresholds

Rainbow MA Cloud█ OVERVIEW
Rainbow MA Cloud displays 8 Moving Averages as a gradient-colored cloud to visualize trend direction and strength. The "rainbow" effect shows momentum through ribbon width, while perfect MA alignment signals strong trending conditions.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator uses 8 MAs with Fibonacci-based default lengths (8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233) to create a layered view of price momentum across multiple timeframes.
Perfect Alignment Detection:
• Bullish Alignment — All 8 MAs in ascending order (MA1 > MA2 > ... > MA8)
Indicates strong uptrend with momentum across all timeframes
• Bearish Alignment — All 8 MAs in descending order (MA1 < MA2 < ... < MA8)
Indicates strong downtrend with aligned selling pressure
• Mixed — MAs are not in sequential order, suggesting consolidation or transition
Ribbon Width:
• Widening ribbon = Trend acceleration, increasing momentum
• Narrowing ribbon = Trend weakening, potential reversal or consolidation
█ FEATURES
1 — MA Configuration
Choose from EMA, SMA, WMA, VWMA, or HMA calculation methods.
All 8 MA lengths are fully customizable.
2 — Color Themes
Five built-in themes: Rainbow, Warm, Cool, Neon, Mono.
Creates visually distinct gradient from fast to slow MAs.
3 — Alignment Background
Green background during bullish alignment.
Red background during bearish alignment.
Helps quickly identify strong trending periods.
4 — Trend Signals
Labels appear when perfect alignment forms.
"BULL ALIGN" for bullish, "BEAR ALIGN" for bearish.
5 — Information Panel
Real-time display of alignment status, trend strength percentage,
ribbon width, price position relative to cloud, and MA values.
█ HOW TO USE
Entry Signals:
• Look for alignment signals (BULL/BEAR ALIGN) as trend confirmation
• Enter long when bullish alignment forms with price above cloud
• Enter short when bearish alignment forms with price below cloud
Trend Following:
• Stay in position while alignment background color persists
• Widening ribbon confirms trend continuation
• Exit or reduce when alignment breaks (background disappears)
Support/Resistance:
• Cloud edges act as dynamic support (bullish) or resistance (bearish)
• Price entering cloud suggests consolidation or potential reversal
█ LIMITATIONS
• Alignment signals are lagging by nature (based on MA crossovers)
• Works best on trending markets; generates mixed signals during ranging periods
• Ribbon width measurement uses outer MAs only (MA1 vs MA8)
█ COMPANION INDICATOR
Use "Rainbow MA Width" indicator for detailed Z-Score analysis of ribbon expansion/contraction patterns.

Ichimoku Trading Checklist - 5 Rules🧠 Description
This indicator implements a rule-based checklist built on Ichimoku Kinko Hyo, complemented with RSI and price structure, designed to help traders objectively evaluate whether a bullish setup is valid or not.
⚠️ This indicator does NOT generate buy or sell signals.
⚠️ It is NOT a trading system or financial advice.
The core philosophy is discipline and consistency:
If there is no setup, there is no trade.
________________________________________
✅ The 5 Rules Evaluated
1. Chikou Span above price (26 bars back)
Confirms that current price is above historical price, validating a bullish context.
2. Bullish TK Cross (Tenkan-sen > Kijun-sen)
Measures bullish momentum within the Ichimoku framework.
3. Bullish divergence or convergence between RSI and price
Evaluates relative strength using recent RSI pivots and price structure.
4. Kumo breakout followed by a valid pullback
Requires a bullish cloud breakout and a pullback that respects the structure.
5. Bullish Kumo (green cloud / twist)
Confirms that the Ichimoku cloud supports a bullish bias.
________________________________________
🚦 Decision Traffic Light (Final Row)
The last row of the table provides a traffic-light style summary:
• 🟢 5/5 rules met → Valid setup
• 🟡 1–4 rules met → Incomplete setup
• 🔴 0 rules met → No trade
Core message displayed: “No setup, No trade!” 🚫

🎨 Customization
Through the Inputs panel, users can customize:
• Header, body, and footer background colors
• Traffic-light colors and icons (🟢 🟡 🔴)
• Text alignment (left / center / right)
• Optional rule counter (x/5)
⚠️ Tables do not use TradingView’s Style tab; all customization is handled via Inputs.
________________________________________
⏱️ Timeframe
The indicator is timeframe-agnostic, but it was designed and tested primarily on the 1H timeframe, where Ichimoku and RSI structure tend to be more consistent.

Universe_Super MA [MTF & Multi-Type]**Overview**
"Universe_Super MA" is a comprehensive trend analysis tool designed to overcome indicator limits. Instead of adding 4 separate moving averages, this script allows you to monitor 4 distinct Moving Averages within a single indicator slot.
It features full **Multi-Timeframe (MTF)** capabilities, meaning you can view higher timeframe trends (e.g., Daily 200 SMA) while trading on lower timeframes (e.g., 15-minute chart).
**Default Configuration (Institutional Setup)**
The indicator comes pre-loaded with a powerful institutional trend setup:
1. **50 Period (Green):** Short-term trend and dynamic support.
2. **99 Period (Orange):** Medium-term trend filter.
3. **200 Period (Red):** The classic institutional dividing line between Bull and Bear markets.
4. **389 Period (Blue):** A long-term "Deep Trend" baseline used to identify major market cycles and heavy support/resistance levels.
**Key Features**
* **fully Customizable:** You can change the Length, Color, and Width of each line.
* **Multi-Timeframe (MTF):** Select any timeframe for any MA. (e.g., Keep MA1 on the "Chart" timeframe, but lock MA4 to the "Daily" timeframe).
* **6 MA Types:** Choose between SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA (Hull), RMA, and VWMA for each line independently.
* **Clean Interface:** Toggle any line On/Off via settings without removing the indicator.
**Usage & Interpretation**
* **Trend Identification:** The 200 (Red) and 389 (Blue) lines are designed to visualize the long-term market bias. In technical analysis, price action sustaining above these levels is generally considered a bullish context, while price below suggests a bearish context.
* **Crossover Monitoring:** The script facilitates the observation of interactions between short-term and long-term averages (e.g., the 50 crossing the 200), allowing users to easily spot common technical patterns like the "Golden Cross".
* **Dynamic Levels:** The 99 and 200-period lines act as dynamic levels that may align with technical support or resistance zones during market retracements.
**Settings**
* **Timeframe:** Leave empty to use the current chart's timeframe, or select a specific one (e.g., "1D" or "4H").
* **Type:** Select your preferred calculation method (SMA is default).

Hybrid Strategy: Trend/ORB/MTFHybrid Strategy: Trend + ORB + Multi-Timeframe Matrix
This script is a comprehensive "Trading Manager" designed to filter out noise and identify high-probability breakout setups. It combines three powerful concepts into a single, clean chart interface: Trend Alignment, Opening Range Breakout (ORB), and Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Analysis.
It is designed to prevent "analysis paralysis" by providing a unified Dashboard that confirms if the trend is aligned across 5 different timeframes before you take a trade.
How it Works
The strategy relies on the "Golden Trio" of confluence:
1. Trend Definition (The Setup) Before looking for entries, the script analyzes the immediate trend. A bullish trend is defined as:
Price is above the Session VWAP.
The fast EMA (9) is above the slow EMA (21). (The inverse applies for bearish trends).
2. The Signal (The Trigger) The script draws the Opening Range (default: first 15 minutes of the session).
Buy Signal: Price breaks above the Opening Range High while the Trend is Bullish.
Sell Signal: Price breaks below the Opening Range Low while the Trend is Bearish.
3. The Confirmation (The Filter) A signal is only valid if the Higher Timeframe (default: 60m) agrees with the direction. If the 1m chart says "Buy" but the 60m chart is bearish, the signal is filtered out to prevent false breakouts.
Key Features
The Matrix Dashboard A zero-lag, real-time table in the corner of your screen that monitors 5 user-defined timeframes (e.g., 5m, 15m, 30m, 60m, 4H).
Trend: Checks if Price > EMA 21.
VWAP: Checks if Price > VWAP.
ORB: Checks if Price is currently above/below the Opening Range of that session.
D H/L: Warns if price is near the Daily High or Low.
PD H/L: Warns if price is near the Previous Daily High or Low.
Visual Order Blocks The script automatically identifies valid Order Blocks (sequences of consecutive candles followed by a strong explosive move).
Chart: Draws Green/Red zones extending to the right, showing where price may react.
Dashboard: Displays the exact High, Low, and Average price of the most recent Order Blocks for precision planning.
Risk Management (Trailing Stop) Once a trade is active, the script plots Chandelier Exit dots (ATR-based trailing stop) to help you manage the trade and lock in profits during trend runs.

Reversal Strength with Momentum Ratings on 4hr charts Here's a quick breakdown of what you'll see on your chart and how to actually use the indicator!
Reversal Labels:
↑ = Bullish reversal (price reversing upward)
↓ = Bearish reversal (price reversing downward)
STRONG (bright green/red) = High-confidence reversal (score > 65)
weak (faded green/red) = Low-confidence reversal (score ≤ 65)
Number on label = Reversal strength score (0-100)
Momentum Table (Top Right):
Overall Score (0-100) = Total momentum strength
Green (80+) = Very strong momentum
Yellow (40-60) = Moderate momentum
Orange/Red (<40) = Weak/stalling momentum
Individual Momentum Scores (each worth 0-20 points):
Volume = How much trading activity vs average
Price ROC = How fast price is moving (rate of change)
MA Spacing = How spread out the moving averages are (trend strength)
ADX = Directional movement indicator (trend conviction)
RSI Mom. = How far RSI is from neutral 50 (momentum extreme)
Status Indicators:
🔥 STRONG = Momentum > 70 (strong move happening)
📈 BUILDING = Momentum 50-70 (gaining strength)
⚠️ WEAK = Momentum 30-50 (losing steam)
💤 STALLING = Momentum < 30 (very weak/choppy)
Background Tint:
Light green background = Strong momentum (>70)
Light red background = Very weak momentum (<30)
The key is: look for STRONG reversal labels when momentum is building/strong for the best trade setups! Also this is mainly for the 4hr time frame.
EMA 8 / 20 / 200Created to easily use the 8/20/200 strategy.
This indicator is designed to give a clear, multi-timeframe view of trend, momentum, and structure using three exponential moving averages.
1. Trend direction (EMA 200 – pink)
The 200 EMA acts as the long-term trend filter.
Price above the 200 EMA suggests a bullish market bias.
Price below the 200 EMA suggests a bearish market bias.
Many traders avoid taking trades against this higher-timeframe direction.
2. Momentum and trade bias (EMA 20 – blue)
The 20 EMA reflects short-term momentum.
When price respects the 20 EMA in an uptrend, pullbacks often provide continuation entries.
In downtrends, the 20 EMA frequently acts as dynamic resistance.
3. Entry timing (EMA 8 – yellow)
The 8 EMA is a fast reaction line used for precise timing.
Crosses of the 8 EMA over the 20 EMA can signal momentum shifts.
Strong trends often show price holding above (or below) the 8 EMA during impulse moves.
4. Confluence and trade filtering
The indicator works best when the EMAs are aligned:
Bullish alignment: EMA 8 > EMA 20 > EMA 200
Bearish alignment: EMA 8 < EMA 20 < EMA 200
Misaligned EMAs usually indicate consolidation or low-probability conditions.
5. Risk management context
EMAs can act as dynamic support and resistance:
Stops are often placed beyond the 20 EMA or 200 EMA depending on trade horizon.
Loss of EMA structure is a warning sign that the trend may be weakening.
In short, the indicator is a trend-first, momentum-second framework that helps you decide when to trade, in which direction, and when to stay out.
Index Construction Tool🙏🏻 The most natural mathematical way to construct an index || portfolio, based on contraharmonic mean || contraharmonic weighting. If you currently traded assets do not satisfy you, why not make your own ones?
Contraharmonic mean is literally a weighted mean where each value is weighted by itself.
...
Now let me explain to you why contraharmonic weighting is really so fundamental in two ways: observation how the industry (prolly unknowably) converged to this method, and the real mathematical explanation why things are this way.
How it works in the industry.
In indexes like TVC:SPX or TVC:DJI the individual components (stocks) are weighted by market capitalization. This market cap is made of two components: number of shares outstanding and the actual price of the stock. While the number of shares holds the same over really long periods of time and changes rarely by corporate actions , the prices change all the time, so market cap is in fact almost purely based on prices itself. So when they weight index legs by market cap, it really means they weight it by stock prices. That’s the observation: even tho I never dem saying they do contraharmonic weighting, that’s what happens in reality.
Natural explanation
Now the main part: how the universe works. If you build a logical sequence of how information ‘gradually’ combines, you have this:
Suppose you have the one last datapoint of each of 4 different assets;
The next logical step is to combine these datapoints somehow in pairs. Pairs are created only as ratios , this reveals relationships between components, this is the only step where these fundamental operations are meaningful, they lose meaning with 3+ components. This way we will have 16 pairs: 4 of them would be 1s, 6 real ratios, and 6 more inverted ratios of these;
Then the next logical step is to combine all the pairs (not the initial single assets) all together. Naturally this is done via matrices, by constructing a 4x4 design matrix where each cell will be one of these 16 pairs. That matrix will have ones in the main diagonal (because these would be smth like ES/ES, NQ/NQ etc). Other cells will be actual ratios, like ES/NQ, RTY/YM etc;
Then the native way to compress and summarize all this structure is to do eigendecomposition . The only eigenvector that would be meaningful in this case is the principal eigenvector, and its loadings would be what we were hunting for. We can multiply each asset datapoint by corresponding loading, sum them up and have one single index value, what we were aiming for;
Now the main catch: turns out using these principal eigenvector loadings mathematically is Exactly the same as simply calculating contraharmonic weights of those 4 initial assets. We’re done here.
For the sceptics, no other way of constructing the design matrix other than with ratios would result in another type of a defined mean. Filling that design matrix with ratios Is the only way to obtain a meaningful defined mean, that would also work with negative numbers. I’m skipping a couple of details there tbh, but they don’t really matter (we don’t need log-space, and anyways the idea holds even then). But the core idea is this: only contraharmonic mean emerges there, no other mean ever does.
Finally, how to use the thing:
Good news we don't use contraharmonic mean itself because we need an internals of it: actual weights of components that make this contraharmonic mean, (so we can follow it with our position sizes). This actually allows us to also use these weights but not for addition, but for subtraction. So, the script has 2 modes (examples would follow):
Addition: the main one, allows you to make indexes, portfolios, baskets, groups, whatever you call it. The script will simply sum the weighted legs;
Subtraction: allows you to make spreads, residual spreads etc. Important: the script will subtract all the symbols From the first one. So if the first we have 3 symbols: YM, ES, RTY, the script will do YM - ES - RTY, weights would be applied to each.
At the top tight corner of the script you will see a lil table with symbols and corresponding weights you wanna trade: these are ‘already’ adjusted for point value of each leg, you don’t need to do anything, only scale them all together to meet your risk profile.
Symbols have to be added the way the default ones are added, one line : one symbol.
Pls explore the script’s Style setting:
You can pick a visualization method you like ! including overlays on the main chart pane !
Script also outputs inferred volume delta, inferred volume and inferred tick count calculated with the same method. You can use them in further calculations.

DZDZ – Pivot Demand Zones + Trend Filter + Breadth Override + SL is a structured accumulation indicator built to identify high-probability demand areas after valid pullbacks.
The script creates **Demand Zones (DZ)** by pairing **pivot troughs (local lows)** with later **pivot peaks (local highs)**, requiring a minimum **ATR (Average True Range)** gap to confirm real price displacement. Zones are drawn only when market structure confirms strength through a **trend filter** (a required number of higher highs over a recent window) or a **breadth override**, which activates after unusually large expansion candles measured as a percentage move from the prior close.
In addition to pivots, the script detects **coiling price action**—tight trading ranges contained within an ATR band—and treats these as alternative demand bases.
Entries require price to penetrate a defined depth into the zone, preventing shallow reactions. After the first valid entry, a **DCA (Dollar-Cost Averaging)** system adds buys every 10 bars while trend or breadth conditions persist. A **ratcheting SL (Stop-Loss)** tightens upward only, using demand structure or ATR when zones are unavailable.
The focus is disciplined, volatility-aware accumulation aligned with structure.
Custom ORBIT GSK-VIZAG-AP-INDIA🚀 Custom ORBIT — Opening Range Breakout & Reversal Indicator
This indicator automatically calculates and plots the Opening Range (OR) high and low levels for a user-defined session and duration. It is designed to assist intraday traders by providing immediate visual signals for both price breakouts and subsequent reversals from these key levels.
The indicator is particularly suitable for markets with defined trading hours, such as the Indian indices (Nifty, Bank Nifty), given its default time settings are based on GMT+5:30.
⚙️ How It Works (Indicator Logic)
The indicator operates based on three main logical components: time definition, level calculation, and signal generation.
1. Time Session and Range Definition: All time calculations are based on GMT+5:30 (Indian Standard Time/IST). The script defines a specific trading session from a customizable start time (default 9:15 AM) to a session end time (default 3:30 PM). The Opening Range (OR) is established during the initial duration, which is set by the rangeMinutes input (default 15 minutes, meaning the OR is calculated from 9:15 AM to 9:30 AM).
2. Level Calculation and Plotting: During the initial range duration, the script captures the absolute highest price (OR High) and the absolute lowest price (OR Low). Once this period ends, two horizontal lines—a green line for the OR High and a red line for the OR Low—are drawn and automatically extended across the chart for the remainder of the active trading session. The visual style of these lines can be customized to Dotted, Dashed, or Solid.
3. Breakout and Reversal Logic: The indicator actively tracks the market's state relative to the OR levels to generate four distinct signals:
Break Up: A signal is generated when the closing price crosses over the OR High, indicating potential upward momentum.
Break Down: A signal is generated when the closing price crosses under the OR Low, indicating potential downward momentum.
Reversal Down: This yellow signal occurs only after a price has already broken above the OR High (Break Up state), and then the price moves back into the range (closing below the ORH), suggesting a failed breakout.
Reversal Up: This yellow signal occurs only after a price has already broken below the OR Low (Break Down state), and then the price moves back into the range (closing above the ORL), suggesting a failed breakdown.
💡 Suggested Use Cases
The signals generated by this indicator can be used in two primary ways:
Breakout Trading: A trader may enter a long position on a "Break Up" signal or a short position on a "Break Down" signal. A common risk management practice is to use the opposite OR level (ORL for long trades, ORH for short trades) as a stop-loss reference.
Faded Breakout / Reversal Trading: Look for the yellow "Reversal Up" or "Reversal Down" signals. These signals indicate a rejection of the OR level, and a trader may take a counter-trend position with the expectation that the price will return to the consolidation range or move toward the opposite OR level.

Black-Out PeriodYou'll need to input the black-out logic of the company you are analyzing manually. For example Liveperson, Insider trading and disclosure policy can be found here:
www.sec.gov
Under paragraph nr 12 we find:
"12.Black-Out Period. During the end of each fiscal quarter and until public disclosure of the financial results for that quarter, persons subject to this Policy may possess material nonpublic information about the expected financial results for the quarter. Even if you don’t actually possess any such information, any trades by you during that period may give the appearance that you are trading on inside information. Accordingly, the Company has designated a regularly-scheduled quarterly “black-out period” on trading beginning with the close of business on the 15th day of the last month of each fiscal quarter (or the close of business on the last day on which The Nasdaq Global Select Market is open prior to such 15th day, in the event that the Nasdaq Global Select Market is not open on such 15th day) and ending at the close of the second full trading day (day on which the relevant stock market is open) after public disclosure of the quarter’s financial results."
So we put in the values "15" and "2"
Note that other rules than those specific dates around earnings applies, and not all employees are subject to the same rules.
