Index Futures vs Cash ArbitrageThis indicator measures the statistical spread between major stock index futures and their corresponding cash indices (e.g., ES vs SPX, NQ vs NDX) using Z-score normalization. It automatically detects commonly traded index pairs (S&P 500, Nasdaq, Dow Jones, Russell 2000) and calculates a smoothed spread between futures and spot prices. A Z-score is then derived from this spread to highlight potential overpricing or underpricing conditions.
Traders can use customizable thresholds to identify mean-reversion opportunities where the futures contract may be temporarily overvalued or undervalued relative to the index. The histogram highlights the direction of the Z-score (green = futures > index, red = futures < index), while built-in alerts notify users of key threshold breaches or zero-line crosses.
This tool is designed for discretionary traders, pairs traders, or anyone exploring statistical arbitrage strategies between futures and spot markets. It is not a buy/sell signal by itself and should be used with additional confluence or risk management techniques.

Dskyz Options Flow Flux (OFF) - FuturesDskyz Options Flow Flux (OFF) - Futures
*This is a repost due to moderator intervention on use of ™ in my scripts. I'm in the process of getting this rectified. This was originally posted around mid-night CDT.
🧠 The Dskyz Options Flow Flux (OFF) - Futures indicator is a game changer for futures traders looking to tap into institutional activity with limited resources. Designed for TradingView this tool simulates options flow data (call/put volume and open interest) for futures contracts like MNQ MES NQ and ES giving u actionable insights through volume spike detection volatility adjustments and stunning visuals like aurora flux bands and round number levels. Whether u’re a beginner learning the ropes or a pro hunting for an edge this indicator delivers real time market sentiment and key price levels to boost ur trading game
Key Features
⚡ Simulated Options Flow: Breaks down call/put volume and open interest using market momentum and volatility
📈 Spike Detection: Spots big moves in volume and open interest with customizable thresholds
🧠 Volatility Filter: Adapts to market conditions using ATR for smarter spike detection
✨ Aurora Flux Bands: Glows with market sentiment showing u bullish or bearish vibes at a glance
🎯 Round Number Levels: Marks key psychological levels where big players might step in
📊 Interactive Dashboard: Real time metrics like sentiment score and volatility factor right on ur chart
🚨 Alerts: Get notified of bullish or bearish spikes so u never miss a move
How It Works
🧠 This indicator is built to make complex options flow analysis simple even with the constraints of Pine Script. Here’s the step by step:
Simulated Volume Data (Dynamic Split):
Pulls daily volume for ur chosen futures contract (MNQ1! MES1! NQ1! ES1!)
Splits it into call and put volume based on momentum (ta.mom) and volatility (ATR vs its 20 period average)
Estimates open interest (OI) for calls and puts (1.15x for calls 1.1x for puts)
Formula: callRatio = 0.5 + (momentum / close) * 10 + (volatility - 1) * 0.1 capped between 0.3 and 0.7
Why It Matters: Mimics how big players might split their trades giving u a peek into institutional sentiment
Spike Detection:
Compares current volume/OI to short term (lookbackShort) and long term (lookbackLong) averages
Flags spikes when volume/OI exceeds the average by ur set threshold (spikeThreshold for regular highConfidenceThreshold for strong)
Adjusts for volatility so u’re not fooled by choppy markets
Output: optionsSignal (2 for strong bullish -2 for strong bearish 1 for bullish -1 for bearish 0 for neutral)
Why It Matters: Pinpoints where big money might be stepping in
Volatility Filter:
Uses ATR (10 periods) and its 20 period average to calculate a volatility factor (volFactor = ATR / avgAtr)
Scales spike thresholds based on market conditions (volAdjustedThreshold = spikeThreshold * max(1 volFactor * volFilter))
Why It Matters: Keeps ur signals reliable whether the market is calm or wild
Sentiment Score:
Calculates a call/put ratio (callVolume / putVolume) and adjusts for volatility
Converts it to a 0 to 100 score (higher = bullish lower = bearish)
Formula: sentimentScore = min(max((volAdjustedSentiment - 1) * 50 0) 100)
Why It Matters: Gives u a quick read on market bias
Round Number Detection:
Finds the nearest round number (e.g. 100 for MNQ1! 50 for MES1!)
Checks for volume spikes (volume > 3 period SMA * spikeThreshold) and if price is close (within ATR * atrMultiplier)
Updates the top activity level every 15 minutes when significant activity is detected
Why It Matters: Highlights psychological levels where price often reacts
Visuals and Dashboard:
Combines aurora flux bands glow effects round number lines and a dashboard to make insights pop (see Visual Elements below)
Plots triangles for call/put spikes (green/red for strong lime/orange for regular)
Sets up alerts for key market moves
Why It Matters: Makes complex data easy to read at a glance

Usage and Strategy Recommendations
🎯 For Beginners: Use high confidence spikes (green/red triangles) for easy entries. Check the dashboard for a quick market read (sentiment score above 60 = bullish below 40 = bearish). Watch round number levels for support/resistance
💡 For Pros: Combine flux signals with round number activity for high probability setups. Adjust lookbackShort/lookbackLong for trending vs choppy markets. Use volFactor for position sizing (higher = smaller positions)

QQQ and SPY Price Levels [MW]Introduction:
Don’t let SPY and QQQ resistance levels hurt your futures trading anymore. The QQQ and SPY Price Levels indicator automagically provides easily accessible QQQ price levels for NASDAQ-related charts such as QQQ, /NQ and /MNQ futures, and leveraged ETFs such as TQQQ and SQQQ as well as for SPY price levels for S&P 500-related charts such as SPY, /ES and /MES futures, SPX, and leveraged ETFs such as UPRO and SPXU. If you’ve ever traded futures, or anything QQQ- or SPY-related and wanted to know at what price would the corresponding asset reach a key whole number level of QQQ or SPY, like 400, 440, 445, or even 447.50, this tool is for you. Key 10x, 5x, and even 2.5x multiples of QQQ and SPY can act as support or resistance for other related-assets. Until now, there hasn’t been an indicator that can serve as an easy visual cue to know exactly when that is about to happen across assets.
This indicator is a fork of the original SPY Price Levels indicator, which only considered SPY-related assets.
Settings:
QQQ/SPY 2.5x: Show closest levels above and below that are multiples of 2.5 on QQQ
QQQ/SPY 5x: Show closest levels above and below that are multiples of 5 on QQQ
QQQ/SPY 10x: Show closest levels above and below that are multiples of 10 on QQQ
Show QQQ/SPY Price Label: Show the current QQQ/SPY price
Extend lines to the left: Extend label lines for each price level to the beginning of the chart
Calculations:
This indicator defines the ratio between the price of QQQ/SPY and another NASDAQ/S&P-related asset and uses that multiplier once the user-defined price increments are defined. For example, if /MNQ is at 19000 and QQQ is at 465, then the ratio would be 40.8.
The incremental QQQ levels that are above and below the QQQ price are calculated using the following equations:
qqqLevelUp = _multiplier * math.ceil(_qqqClose / _multiplier)
qqqLevelDown = _multiplier * math.floor(_qqqClose / _multiplier)
The conversion ratio is then multiplied by that amount to get the final estimated corresponding price using the calculation:
levelUp := _conversion * qqqLevelUp
levelDown := _conversion * qqqLevelDown
For leveraged assets, the conversion must be used on the difference between the current QQQ price and the incremental upper and lower levels.
For example, the calculation for the next level up looks like the following:
levelUpDelta := math.abs(_qqqClose - qqqLevelUp)
levelUp := close + _conversion * (levelUpDelta * _leverage)
This logic is identical for SPY-related assets.
How to Use:
The QQQ and SPY Price Levels indicator aims to be as unobtrusive as possible. The default view shows 3 labels and 2 lines that are all aligned to the right of the main chart, so that it interferes as little as possible with any other indicators. It can be added to any /NQ or /MNQ futures chart, SQQQ, TQQQ, and, of course, QQQ as well as any /ES /MES futures chart, SPXU, UPRO, SPX, and of course SPY. The most immediate price levels for each multiplier appears above and below the current price along with the price of QQQ/SPY.
For example, MNQU2024 is currently at 19594. By looking at the indicator the next QQQ increment below is at 475, or 19556 on the MNQU2024 chart. This potential support is marked with a green label that shows both prices. The next increment above is at QQQ 477.50, or 19659 on the MESU2024 chart. And the QQQ price itself, is also shown (and can be removed) at 475.92.
QQQ and SPY price increments of 2.5, 5, and 10 tend to consistently act at the very least as emotional support and resistance levels. Weak, or weakening volume and/or momentum when these levels are hit can trigger a strong rejection, and can sometimes precipitate lengthy consolidation periods at those levels. Watching an NASDAQ- and S&P 500-related asset come to a halt, fall off a cliff, or react in some other unintuitive way could very well be the result of a QQQ/SPY level being reached. Even though many of us know that this relationship exists, it’s easy to forget. So, this indicator helps to ensure that its users keep that relationship front and center.
By extending the lines into the past on QQQ/SPY and their related assets, you can see what reactions happened at these key levels.
Other Usage Notes and Limitations:
The calculations used only provide an estimated relationship or a close approximation, and are not exact.
It's important for traders to be aware of the limitations of any indicator and to use them as part of a broader, well-rounded trading strategy that includes risk management, fundamental analysis, and other tools that can help with reducing false signals, determining trend direction, and providing additional confirmation for a trade decision. Diversifying strategies and not relying solely on one type of indicator or analysis can help mitigate some of these risks.

Asay (1982) Margined Futures Option Pricing Model [Loxx]Asay (1982) Margined Futures Option Pricing Model is an adaptation of the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing Model including Analytical Greeks and implied volatility calculations. The following information is an excerpt from Espen Gaarder Haug's book "Option Pricing Formulas". This version is to price Options on Futures where premium is fully margined. This means the Risk-free Rate, dividend, and cost to carry are all zero. The options sensitivities (Greeks) are the partial derivatives of the Black-Scholes-Merton ( BSM ) formula. Analytical Greeks for our purposes here are broken down into various categories:
Delta Greeks: Delta, DDeltaDvol, Elasticity
Gamma Greeks: Gamma, GammaP, DGammaDvol, Speed
Vega Greeks: Vega , DVegaDvol/Vomma, VegaP
Theta Greeks: Theta
Probability Greeks: StrikeDelta, Risk Neutral Density
(See the code for more details)
Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing
The Black-Scholes-Merton model can be "generalized" by incorporating a cost-of-carry rate b. This model can be used to price European options on stocks, stocks paying a continuous dividend yield, options on futures , and currency options:
c = S * e^((b - r) * T) * N(d1) - X * e^(-r * T) * N(d2)
p = X * e^(-r * T) * N(-d2) - S * e^((b - r) * T) * N(-d1)
where
d1 = (log(S / X) + (b + v^2 / 2) * T) / (v * T^0.5)
d2 = d1 - v * T^0.5
b = r ... gives the Black and Scholes (1973) stock option model.
b = r — q ... gives the Merton (1973) stock option model with continuous dividend yield q.
b = 0 ... gives the Black (1976) futures option model.
b = 0 and r = 0 ... gives the Asay (1982) margined futures option model. <== this is the one used for this indicator!
b = r — rf ... gives the Garman and Kohlhagen (1983) currency option model.
Inputs
S = Stock price.
X = Strike price of option.
T = Time to expiration in years.
r = Risk-free rate
d = dividend yield
v = Volatility of the underlying asset price
cnd (x) = The cumulative normal distribution function
nd(x) = The standard normal density function
convertingToCCRate(r, cmp ) = Rate compounder
gImpliedVolatilityNR(string CallPutFlag, float S, float x, float T, float r, float b, float cm , float epsilon) = Implied volatility via Newton Raphson
gBlackScholesImpVolBisection(string CallPutFlag, float S, float x, float T, float r, float b, float cm ) = implied volatility via bisection
Implied Volatility: The Bisection Method
The Newton-Raphson method requires knowledge of the partial derivative of the option pricing formula with respect to volatility ( vega ) when searching for the implied volatility . For some options (exotic and American options in particular), vega is not known analytically. The bisection method is an even simpler method to estimate implied volatility when vega is unknown. The bisection method requires two initial volatility estimates (seed values):
1. A "low" estimate of the implied volatility , al, corresponding to an option value, CL
2. A "high" volatility estimate, aH, corresponding to an option value, CH
The option market price, Cm , lies between CL and cH . The bisection estimate is given as the linear interpolation between the two estimates:
v(i + 1) = v(L) + (c(m) - c(L)) * (v(H) - v(L)) / (c(H) - c(L))
Replace v(L) with v(i + 1) if c(v(i + 1)) < c(m), or else replace v(H) with v(i + 1) if c(v(i + 1)) > c(m) until |c(m) - c(v(i + 1))| <= E, at which point v(i + 1) is the implied volatility and E is the desired degree of accuracy.
Implied Volatility: Newton-Raphson Method
The Newton-Raphson method is an efficient way to find the implied volatility of an option contract. It is nothing more than a simple iteration technique for solving one-dimensional nonlinear equations (any introductory textbook in calculus will offer an intuitive explanation). The method seldom uses more than two to three iterations before it converges to the implied volatility . Let
v(i + 1) = v(i) + (c(v(i)) - c(m)) / (dc / dv (i))
until |c(m) - c(v(i + 1))| <= E at which point v(i + 1) is the implied volatility , E is the desired degree of accuracy, c(m) is the market price of the option, and dc/ dv (i) is the vega of the option evaluaated at v(i) (the sensitivity of the option value for a small change in volatility ).

Adaptive Trend Breaks Adaptive Trend Breaks
## WHAT IT DOES
This script is a modified and enhanced version of "Trendline Breakouts With Targets" concept by ChartPrime.
Adaptive Trend Breaks (ATB) is a trendline breakout system optimized for scalping liquid futures contracts. The indicator automatically draws dynamic support and resistance trendlines based on pivot points, then generates trade signals when price breaks through these levels with confirmation filters. It includes automated target and stop-loss placement with real-time P&L tracking in dollars.
## HOW IT WORKS
**Trendline Detection Method:**
The indicator uses pivot high/low detection to identify significant price turning points. When a new pivot forms, it calculates the slope between consecutive pivots to draw dynamic trendlines. These lines extend forward based on the established trend angle, creating actionable support and resistance zones.
**Band System:**
Around each trendline, the script creates a "band" using a volatility-adjusted calculation: `ATR(14) * 0.2 * bandwidth multiplier / 2`. This adaptive band accounts for current market conditions - wider during volatile periods, tighter during quiet markets.
**Breakout Logic:**
A breakout signal triggers when:
1. Price closes beyond the trendline + band zone
2. Volume exceeds the 20-period moving average by your set multiplier (default 1.2x)
3. Price is within Regular Trading Hours (9:30-16:00 EST) if session filter enabled
4. Current ATR meets minimum volatility threshold (prevents trading dead markets)
**Target & Stop Calculation:**
Upon breakout confirmation:
- **Entry**: Trendline breach point
- **Target**: Entry ± (bandwidth × target multiplier) - default 8x for quick scalps
- **Stop**: Entry ± (bandwidth × stop multiplier) - default 8x for 1:1 risk/reward
- Multipliers adjust automatically to market volatility through the ATR-based band
**P&L Conversion:**
The script converts point movements to dollars using:
```
Dollar P&L = (Price Points × Contract Point Value × Quantity)
```
For example, a 10-point NQ move with 2 contracts = 10 × $20 × 2 = $400
## HOW TO USE IT
**Setup:**
1. Select your instrument (NQ/ES/YM/RTY) - point values auto-configure
2. Set contract quantity for accurate dollar P&L
3. Choose pivot period (lower = more signals but more noise, default 5 for scalping)
4. Adjust bandwidth multiplier if trendlines are too tight/loose (1-5 range)
**Filters Configuration:**
- **Volume Filter**: Requires breakout volume > moving average × multiplier. Increase multiplier (1.5-2.0) for higher conviction trades
- **Session Filter**: Enable to trade only RTH. Disable for 24-hour trading
- **ATR Filter**: Prevents signals during low volatility. Increase minimum % for more active markets only
**Risk Management:**
- Set target/stop multipliers based on your risk tolerance
- 8x bandwidth = approximately 1:1 risk/reward for most liquid futures
- Enable trailing stops for trend-following approach (moves stop to protect profits)
- Adjust line length to see targets further into the future
**Statistics Table:**
- Choose timeframe to analyze: all-time, today, this week, custom days
- Monitor win rate, profit factor, and net P&L in dollars
- Track long vs short performance separately
- See real-time unrealized P&L on active trades
**Reading Signals:**
- **Green triangle below bar** = Long breakout (resistance broken)
- **Red triangle above bar** = Short breakout (support broken)
- **White dashed line** = Entry price
- **Orange line** = Take profit target with dollar value
- **Red line** = Stop loss with dollar value
- **Green checkmark (✓)** = Target hit, winning trade
- **Red X (✗)** = Stop hit, losing trade
## WHAT IT DOES NOT DO
**Limitations to Understand:**
- Does not predict future trendline formations - it reacts to breakouts after they occur
- Historical trendlines disappear after breakout (not kept on chart for clarity)
- Requires sufficient volatility - may not signal in extremely quiet markets
- Volume filter requires exchange volume data (not available on all symbols)
- Statistics are indicator-based simulations, not actual trading results
- Does not account for slippage, commissions, or order fills
## BEST PRACTICES
**Recommended Settings by Market:**
- **NQ (Nasdaq)**: Default settings work well, consider volume multiplier 1.3-1.5
- **ES (S&P 500)**: Slightly slower, try period 7-8, volume 1.2
- **YM (Dow)**: Lower volatility, reduce bandwidth to 1.5-2
- **RTY (Russell)**: Higher volatility, increase bandwidth to 3-4
**Risk Management:**
- Never risk more than 2-3% of account per trade
- Use contract quantity calculator: Max Risk $ ÷ (Stop Distance × Point Value)
- Start with 1 contract while learning the system
- Backtest your specific timeframe and instrument before live trading
**Optimization Tips:**
- Increase pivot period (7-10) for fewer but higher-quality signals
- Raise volume multiplier (1.5-2.0) in choppy markets
- Lower target/stop multipliers (5-6x) for tighter profit taking
- Use trailing stops in strong trending conditions
- Disable session filter for overnight gaps and Asia session moves
## TECHNICAL DETAILS
**Key Calculations:**
- Pivot Detection: `ta.pivothigh(high, period, period/2)` and `ta.pivotlow(low, period, period/2)`
- Slope Calculation: `(newPivot - oldPivot) / (newTime - oldTime)`
- Adaptive Band: `min(ATR(14) * 0.2, close * 0.002) * multiplier / 2`
- Breakout Confirmation: Price crosses trendline + 10% of band threshold
**Data Requirements:**
- Minimum bars in view: 500 for proper pivot calculation
- Volume data required for volume filter accuracy
- Intraday timeframes recommended (1min - 15min) for scalping
- Works on any timeframe but optimized for fast execution
**Performance Metrics:**
All statistics calculate based on indicator signals:
- Tracks every signal as a trade from entry to TP/SL
- P&L in actual contract dollar values
- Win rate = (Winning trades / Total trades) × 100
- Profit factor = Gross profit / Gross loss
- Separates long/short performance for bias analysis
## IDEAL FOR
- Futures scalpers and day traders
- Traders who prefer visual trendline breakouts
- Those wanting automated TP/SL placement
- Traders tracking performance in dollar terms
- Multiple timeframe analysis (compare 1min vs 5min signals)
## NOT SUITABLE FOR
- Swing trading (targets too close)
- Stocks/forex without modifying point values
- Extremely low timeframes (<30 seconds) - too much noise
- Markets without volume data if using volume filter
- Illiquid contracts (signals may not execute at shown prices)
---
**Settings Summary:**
- Core: Period, bandwidth, extension, trendline style
- Filters: Volume, RTH session, ATR volatility
- Risk: R:R ratio, target/stop multipliers, trailing stop
- Display: Stats table position, size, colors
- Stats: Timeframe selection (all-time to custom days)

ADX - Globx Options & Futures 2.0The ADX Globx Options & Futures is a custom-built trend strength indicator designed to replicate and enhance the classic Average Directional Index (ADX) model, commonly used in professional trading platforms such as IQ Option.
This version is optimized for options and futures trading, providing precise directional strength readings through adaptive smoothing and configurable parameters.
Concept and Logic
This indicator measures the strength of the current trend, regardless of its direction (bullish or bearish), by comparing directional movement between price highs and lows over a defined period.
It uses three main components:
+DI (Positive Directional Indicator): represents bullish strength.
–DI (Negative Directional Indicator): represents bearish strength.
ADX (Average Directional Index): measures the intensity of the prevailing trend, independent of direction.
The script follows the original logic proposed by J. Welles Wilder Jr., but introduces enhanced smoothing flexibility.
Users can choose between EMA (Exponential Moving Average) and Wilder’s RMA (Running Moving Average) for both DI and ADX calculations, allowing closer alignment with various platform implementations (IQ Option, MetaTrader, etc.).
How It Works
Directional Movement Calculation
The script computes upward and downward movements (+DM and –DM) by comparing the differences in highs and lows between consecutive candles.
Only positive directional changes that exceed the opposite side are considered.
This ensures each bar contributes only one valid directional movement.
True Range and Smoothing
The True Range (TR) is calculated using ta.tr(true) to include price gaps—replicating how professional derivatives platforms account for volatility jumps.
Both TR and DM values are smoothed using the selected averaging method (EMA or Wilder).
Directional Index and ADX
The smoothed +DI and –DI values are normalized over the True Range to form the Directional Index (DX), which measures the percentage difference between the two.
The ADX is then derived by smoothing the DX values, providing a stable reading of overall market strength.
Visual Representation
The ADX (white line) indicates the overall trend strength.
The +DI (dark blue) and –DI (dark red) lines show which side (bullish or bearish) is currently dominant.
Reference levels at 20 and 25 serve as strength thresholds:
Below 20 → Weak or sideways market.
Above 25 → Strong and directional trend.
Usage and Interpretation
When ADX rises above 25, the market shows a strong trend — use +DI > –DI for bullish confirmation, or the opposite for bearish momentum.
A falling ADX suggests decreasing trend strength and potential consolidation.
The default parameters (ADX Length = 34, DI Length = 34, both smoothed by EMA) match IQ Option’s internal ADX configuration, ensuring consistency between platforms.
Works on any timeframe or asset class, but is especially tuned for futures and options volatility dynamics.
Originality and Improvements
Unlike many open-source ADX indicators, this version:
Recreates IQ Option’s 34-length EMA-based ADX calculation with exact parameter alignment.
Provides selectable smoothing algorithms (EMA or Wilder) to switch between modern and classic formulations.
Uses dark-theme-optimized visuals with fine line weight and subtle contrast for clean visibility.
Maintains constant guide levels (20/25) rendered globally for precision and style compliance in Pine Script v6.
Is fully rewritten for Pine Script v6, ensuring compatibility and optimized execution.
Recommended Use
Combine with trend-following systems or breakout strategies.
Ideal for identifying market strength before engaging in options directionals or futures entries.
Use the ADX to confirm breakout momentum or filter sideways markets.

Globex Overnight Futures ORB with FIB's by TenAMTrader📌 Globex Overnight Futures ORB with FIB’s – by TenAMTrader
This indicator is designed for futures traders who want to track the Globex Overnight Opening Range (ORB) and apply Fibonacci projections to anticipate potential support/resistance zones. It’s especially useful for traders who follow overnight sessions (such as ES, NQ, CL) and want to map out key levels before the U.S. regular session begins.
⚙️ How It Works
Primary Range (ORB):
You define a start and end time (default set to 18:00 – 18:15 EST). During this period, the script tracks the session high, low, and midpoint.
Opening Range Plots:
High Line (green)
Low Line (red)
Midpoint Line (yellow)
A shaded cloud between High–Mid and Mid–Low for easy visualization.
Fibonacci Projections:
Once the ORB is complete, the script calculates a full suite of Fibonacci retracements and extensions (e.g., 0.236, 0.382, 0.618, 1.0, 1.618, 2.0).
Standard key levels (0.618, 0.786, 1.0, etc.) are always shown if enabled.
Optional extended levels (1.236, 1.382, 1.5, 2.0, etc.) can be toggled on/off.
"Between Range" fibs (such as 0.382 and 0.618 inside the ORB) are also available for traders who like intra-range precision.
🔧 User Settings
Time Inputs: Choose your ORB start/end time.
Color Controls: Customize high, low, midpoint, and fib line colors.
Display Toggles: Turn on/off High, Low, Midpoint lines and Fibonacci projections.
Fib Extensions Toggle: Decide whether to show only major fibs or all extensions.
Alerts (Optional): Alerts can be set for crossing the ORB High, Low, or Midpoint.
📊 Practical Use Cases
Breakout Traders: Use the ORB high/low as breakout triggers.
Mean Reversion Traders: Watch for rejections near fib extension levels.
Overnight Futures Monitoring: Track Globex behavior to prepare for RTH open.
Risk Management: ORB and Fib levels make for natural stop/target placement zones.

Synopsis: The Micro Futures Contract Calculator is a sleek, minimalist indicator that calculates the number of Micro E-mini Nasdaq-100 (MNQ) or S&P 500 (MES) contracts you can trade based on a fixed dollar risk and stop-loss (in ticks). Displayed in a compact, professional table in the top-right corner, it shows your risk, stop-loss, contract type, and calculated contracts, helping traders maintain consistent risk management.
How to Use:
Add the indicator to your chart (search “Micro Futures Contract Calculator”).
In settings, input:
Maximum Risk ($): Your total risk per trade (e.g., $100).
Stop-Loss (Ticks): Stop-loss size in ticks (e.g., 20 ticks = 5 points).
Contract Type: Select MNQ or MES.
Check the top-right table for:
Risk, stop-loss, contract type, and number of contracts (e.g., “10” for MNQ, “4” for MES).
Use the contract number to size trades, ensuring risk stays fixed.
Why Standardized Risk is Important:
Consistency: Fixed risk per trade (e.g., $100) prevents oversized losses, stabilizing long-term performance.
Discipline: Removes emotional guesswork, enforcing a systematic approach across MNQ/MES trades.
Capital Protection: Limits exposure, preserving your account during losing streaks and volatile markets.
Scalability: Aligns position sizing with your risk tolerance, enabling confident scaling as your account grows.
This indicator simplifies risk management, making it essential for disciplined futures trading.

BTC FTX Futures PremiumsThis indicator shows the future BTC premiums on FTX.
The purple area is the Daily December Futures contract subtracted by the current price.
The blue area is the Daily September futures contract subtracted by the current price.
The green area is the Daily June futures contract subtracted by the current price.
You can use this to try and understand market sentiment.
If the current price dumps but the premium remains the same it likely means that sentiment is unchanged.
The opposite is true, if the price pumps and the premium is the same it means the market likely wasn't convinced by the movement.
The difference between the current price and the futures price can help determine how bullish or bearish a market or at extremes the level of euphoria.

OKCoin future diffThis indicator checks the accuracy of okcoin futures against the current index. Example, check how the 1W future from 7 days ago matches the current spot value. The matches are on the 1W, 2W, 3M futures
The indicator bundles them together, makes a weighted average and shows it all.
the thin lines are the futures deltas for each of the futures(check the code to see the color of each).
the thick line is the compound indicator, the line is red when the value is too far off the spot price, black when it's <5%
background is green on "bullish", red for "bearish", take it as you want with many grains of salt :)
there is an input value (default = 1) to adjust time scales. the value is a multiplier for the number of periods in a day.
Example:
1D chart, input = 1
4h chart, input = 4h * 6 = 24h
using the incorrect adjustment for the wrong time scale, makes the indicator (even more) meaningless ;)

BOCS Channel Scalper Strategy - Automated Mean Reversion System# BOCS Channel Scalper Strategy - Automated Mean Reversion System
## WHAT THIS STRATEGY DOES:
This is an automated mean reversion trading strategy that identifies consolidation channels through volatility analysis and executes scalp trades when price enters entry zones near channel boundaries. Unlike breakout strategies, this system assumes price will revert to the channel mean, taking profits as price bounces back from extremes. Position sizing is fully customizable with three methods: fixed contracts, percentage of equity, or fixed dollar amount. Stop losses are placed just outside channel boundaries with take profits calculated either as fixed points or as a percentage of channel range.
## KEY DIFFERENCE FROM ORIGINAL BOCS:
**This strategy is designed for traders seeking higher trade frequency.** The original BOCS indicator trades breakouts OUTSIDE channels, waiting for price to escape consolidation before entering. This scalper version trades mean reversion INSIDE channels, entering when price reaches channel extremes and betting on a bounce back to center. The result is significantly more trading opportunities:
- **Original BOCS**: 1-3 signals per channel (only on breakout)
- **Scalper Version**: 5-15+ signals per channel (every touch of entry zones)
- **Trade Style**: Mean reversion vs trend following
- **Hold Time**: Seconds to minutes vs minutes to hours
- **Best Markets**: Ranging/choppy conditions vs trending breakouts
This makes the scalper ideal for active day traders who want continuous opportunities within consolidation zones rather than waiting for breakout confirmation. However, increased trade frequency also means higher commission costs and requires tighter risk management.
## TECHNICAL METHODOLOGY:
### Price Normalization Process:
The strategy normalizes price data to create consistent volatility measurements across different instruments and price levels. It calculates the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined lookback period (default 100 bars). Current close price is normalized using: (close - lowest_low) / (highest_high - lowest_low), producing values between 0 and 1 for standardized volatility analysis.
### Volatility Detection:
A 14-period standard deviation is applied to the normalized price series to measure price deviation from the mean. Higher standard deviation values indicate volatility expansion; lower values indicate consolidation. The strategy uses ta.highestbars() and ta.lowestbars() to identify when volatility peaks and troughs occur over the detection period (default 14 bars).
### Channel Formation Logic:
When volatility crosses from a high level to a low level (ta.crossover(upper, lower)), a consolidation phase begins. The strategy tracks the highest and lowest prices during this period, which become the channel boundaries. Minimum duration of 10+ bars is required to filter out brief volatility spikes. Channels are rendered as box objects with defined upper and lower boundaries, with colored zones indicating entry areas.
### Entry Signal Generation:
The strategy uses immediate touch-based entry logic. Entry zones are defined as a percentage from channel edges (default 20%):
- **Long Entry Zone**: Bottom 20% of channel (bottomBound + channelRange × 0.2)
- **Short Entry Zone**: Top 20% of channel (topBound - channelRange × 0.2)
Long signals trigger when candle low touches or enters the long entry zone. Short signals trigger when candle high touches or enters the short entry zone. This captures mean reversion opportunities as price reaches channel extremes.
### Cooldown Filter:
An optional cooldown period (measured in bars) prevents signal spam by enforcing minimum spacing between consecutive signals. If cooldown is set to 3 bars, no new long signal will fire until 3 bars after the previous long signal. Long and short cooldowns are tracked independently, allowing both directions to signal within the same period.
### ATR Volatility Filter:
The strategy includes a multi-timeframe ATR filter to avoid trading during low-volatility conditions. Using request.security(), it fetches ATR values from a specified timeframe (e.g., 1-minute ATR while trading on 5-minute charts). The filter compares current ATR to a user-defined minimum threshold:
- If ATR ≥ threshold: Trading enabled
- If ATR < threshold: No signals fire
This prevents entries during dead zones where mean reversion is unreliable due to insufficient price movement.
### Take Profit Calculation:
Two TP methods are available:
**Fixed Points Mode**:
- Long TP = Entry + (TP_Ticks × syminfo.mintick)
- Short TP = Entry - (TP_Ticks × syminfo.mintick)
**Channel Percentage Mode**:
- Long TP = Entry + (ChannelRange × TP_Percent)
- Short TP = Entry - (ChannelRange × TP_Percent)
Default 50% targets the channel midline, a natural mean reversion target. Larger percentages aim for opposite channel edge.
### Stop Loss Placement:
Stop losses are placed just outside the channel boundary by a user-defined tick offset:
- Long SL = ChannelBottom - (SL_Offset_Ticks × syminfo.mintick)
- Short SL = ChannelTop + (SL_Offset_Ticks × syminfo.mintick)
This logic assumes channel breaks invalidate the mean reversion thesis. If price breaks through, the range is no longer valid and position exits.
### Trade Execution Logic:
When entry conditions are met (price in zone, cooldown satisfied, ATR filter passed, no existing position):
1. Calculate entry price at zone boundary
2. Calculate TP and SL based on selected method
3. Execute strategy.entry() with calculated position size
4. Place strategy.exit() with TP limit and SL stop orders
5. Update info table with active trade details
The strategy enforces one position at a time by checking strategy.position_size == 0 before entry.
### Channel Breakout Management:
Channels are removed when price closes more than 10 ticks outside boundaries. This tolerance prevents premature channel deletion from minor breaks or wicks, allowing the mean reversion setup to persist through small boundary violations.
### Position Sizing System:
Three methods calculate position size:
**Fixed Contracts**:
- Uses exact contract quantity specified in settings
- Best for futures traders (e.g., "trade 2 NQ contracts")
**Percentage of Equity**:
- position_size = (strategy.equity × equity_pct / 100) / close
- Dynamically scales with account growth
**Cash Amount**:
- position_size = cash_amount / close
- Maintains consistent dollar exposure regardless of price
## INPUT PARAMETERS:
### Position Sizing:

## BACKTEST CONSIDERATIONS:
- Strategy performs best in ranging, mean-reverting markets
- Strong trending markets produce more stop losses as price breaks channels
- ATR filter significantly reduces trade count but improves quality during low volatility
- Cooldown period trades signal quantity for signal quality
- Commission and slippage materially impact sub-5-minute timeframe performance
- Shorter timeframes require tighter entry zones (15-20%) to catch quick reversions
- % of Channel TP adapts better to varying channel sizes than fixed points
- Fixed contract sizing recommended for consistent risk per trade in futures
**Backtesting Parameters Used**: This strategy was developed and tested using realistic commission and slippage values to provide accurate performance expectations. Recommended settings: Commission of $1.40 per side (typical for NQ futures through discount brokers), slippage of 2 ticks to account for execution delays on fast-moving scalp entries. These values reflect real-world trading costs that active scalpers will encounter. Backtest results without proper cost simulation will significantly overstate profitability.
## COMPATIBLE MARKETS:
Works on any instrument with price data including stock indices (NQ, ES, YM, RTY), individual stocks, forex pairs (EUR/USD, GBP/USD), cryptocurrency (BTC, ETH), and commodities. Volume-based features require data feed with volume information but are optional for core functionality.
## KNOWN LIMITATIONS:
- Immediate touch entry can fire multiple times in choppy zones without adequate cooldown
- Channel deletion at 10-tick breaks may be too aggressive or lenient depending on instrument tick size
- ATR filter from lower timeframes requires higher-tier TradingView subscription (request.security limitation)
- Mean reversion logic fails in strong breakout scenarios leading to stop loss hits
- Position sizing via % of equity or cash amount calculates based on close price, may differ from actual fill price
- No partial closing capability - full position exits at TP or SL only
- Strategy does not account for gap openings or overnight holds
## RISK DISCLOSURE:
Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Past performance does not guarantee future results. This strategy is for educational purposes and backtesting only. Mean reversion strategies can experience extended drawdowns during trending markets. Stop losses may not fill at intended levels during extreme volatility or gaps. Thoroughly test on historical data and paper trade before risking real capital. Use appropriate position sizing and never risk more than you can afford to lose. Consider consulting a licensed financial advisor before making trading decisions. Automated trading systems can malfunction - monitor all live positions actively.
