RSI Strength & Consolidation Zones (Zeiierman)█ Overview
RSI Strength & Consolidation Zones (Zeiierman) is a hybrid momentum and volatility visualization tool that blends enhanced RSI interpretation with ADX-driven consolidation detection. This indicator doesn't just show where RSI is trending — it interprets how strong that trend is, when that strength changes, and where the market may be consolidating in anticipation of breakout movement.
Using a combination of Kalman-filtered RSI, custom-built DMI/ADX, and low-volatility zone recognition, it gives traders a dynamic RSI with strength-based coloring, while also highlighting consolidation zones to spot breakout opportunities.
█ Its uniqueness
Traditional RSI indicators lack context. They may show you when the market is overbought or oversold, but they won’t tell you how strong that condition is, or whether it’s likely to result in continuation or consolidation.
This tool aims to solve that by introducing adaptive strength metrics and structural compression zones, allowing traders to anticipate when the market is likely preparing for a move.
█ How It Works
⚪ Enhanced RSI
Combines traditional RSI and a custom RSI implementation
Smooths both through a Kalman filter for trend direction
Final RSI line reflects smoothed consensus between manual and built-in RSI
Adds an RSI + Strength overlay to show when the directional conviction is increasing
⚪ ADX-Driven Strength Layer
Directional Movement Index (DMI) is calculated both manually and with built-in smoothing
The average ADX value is used to calculate a strength modifier
When ADX exceeds 20, RSI is dynamically enhanced or dampened to reflect directional force
Resulting visual: RSI appears stronger or weaker based on confirmed trend conditions
⚪ Consolidation Zone Detection
When ADX falls below 20, the indicator enters a consolidation zone state
Boxes are drawn dynamically to contain the price within these low-volatility structures
Once the price breaks out of the zone, the indicator plots a breakout signal (▲ or ▼)
⚪ Breakouts
Breakout markers are placed at the first close outside the consolidation box
These signals serve as early indicators for potential trend continuation or reversal
█ How to Use
⚪ Confirm Momentum Strength
Use the RSI + Strength line to determine whether current momentum is backed by trend conviction. If strength expands alongside rising RSI, the move has confirmation.
⚪ Consolidations Zones
When RSI is around the midline, and a consolidation box appears, expect lower volatility and a range-bound market, followed by a breakout.
⚪ Use Breakout Signals for Entry
Look for ▲ or ▼ markers as early triggers. These often coincide with volume expansions or structural breaks.
█ Settings Explained
RSI Length – Number of bars used for RSI. Shorter = more sensitive.
DMI Length – Used in both custom and built-in ADX/DI calculations.
ADX Smoothing – Smooths the trend strength signal. Higher values = smoother strength detection.
Trend Confirmation (Filter Strength) – Adjusts the responsiveness of the Kalman filter.

Time-Weighted Price Action IndicatorThe Time-Weighted Price Action Indicator is a simple yet effective tool designed to detect consolidation zones based on time duration and highlight potential reversal points using a contrarian breakout logic. Instead of following traditional breakout strategies, this indicator aims to capitalize on false breakouts and reversal entries.
How It Works
• The indicator identifies a price range (zone) using a configurable lookback period.
• If the price remains within this range for a specified number of bars (threshold), a consolidation zone is confirmed.
• Once a breakout or breakdown from this zone occurs, the indicator triggers a reversed signal — suggesting a potential reversal instead of a trend-following entry.
• Support and resistance levels are marked visually, and BUY/SELL labels are plotted when price re-enters the zone, indicating potential exhaustion or traps.
Key Features
• ✅ Time-based consolidation detection
• ✅ Contrarian signal logic (Buy at breakdowns, Sell at breakouts)
• ✅ Dynamic zone plotting with support/resistance visualization
• ✅ Auto-reset after each breakout for fresh zone detection
• ✅ Visual labels and alerts for BUY/SELL signals
How to Use
• Ideal for range-bound markets or identifying trap zones around support/resistance.
• Use in conjunction with volume, momentum, or trend filters to refine entries.
• Can complement mean reversion strategies or be used as a signal confirmation tool.
Why This Combination?
This approach blends time-based consolidation logic with a contrarian price action perspective, offering traders a different lens to analyze markets. Instead of blindly following breakouts, it highlights areas where price rejections and false breakouts often occur — common in algorithm-driven markets.
Why It’s Worth Using
This indicator helps you stay ahead of trap zones, identify reversal spots, and understand price behavior in consolidation zones — a critical edge, especially in sideways or choppy markets. It adds context to price movement, helping traders avoid common breakout failures.
Note:
• No performance guarantees or exaggerated claims.
• No solicitation or promotional language used.
• This is a free, open-source educational tool meant to aid price action understanding.
TrendPredator FOTrendPredator Fakeout Highlighter (FO)
The TrendPredator Fakeout Highlighter is designed to enhance multi-timeframe trend analysis by identifying key market behaviors that indicate trend strength, weakness, and potential reversals. Inspired by Stacey Burke’s trading approach, this tool focuses on trend-following, momentum shifts, and trader traps, helping traders capitalize on high-probability setups.
At its core, this indicator highlights peak formations—anchor points where price often locks in trapped traders before making decisive moves. These principles align with George Douglas Taylor’s 3-day cycle and Steve Mauro’s BTMM method, making the FO Highlighter a powerful tool for reading market structure. As markets are fractal, this analysis works on any timeframe.
How It Works
The TrendPredator FO highlights key price action signals by coloring candles based on their bias state on the current timeframe.
It tracks four major elements:
Breakout/Breakdown Bars – Did the candle close in a breakout or breakdown relative to the last candle?
Fakeout Bars (Trend Close) – Did the candle break a prior high/low and close back inside, but still in line with the trend?
Fakeout Bars (Counter-Trend Close) – Did the candle break a prior high/low, close back inside, and against the trend?
Switch Bars – Did the candle lose/ reclaim the breakout/down level of the last bar that closed in breakout/down, signalling a possible trend shift?
Reading the Trend with TrendPredator FO
The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration.
- Breakouts → Strong Trend
Multiple candles closing in breakout signal a healthy and strong trend.
- Fakeouts (Trend Close) → First Signs of Weakness
Candles that break out but close back inside suggest a potential slowdown—especially near key levels.
- Fakeouts (Counter-Trend Close) → Stronger Reversal Signal
Closing against the trend strengthens the reversal signal.
- Switch Bars → Momentum Shift
A shift in trend is confirmed when price crosses back through the last closed breakout candles breakout level, trapping traders and fuelling a move in the opposite direction.
- Breakdowns → Trend Reversal Confirmed
Once price breaks away from the peak formation, closing in breakdown, the trend shift is validated.
Customization & Settings
- Toggle individual candle types on/off
- Customize colors for each signal
- Set the number of historical candles displayed
Example Use Cases
1. Weekly Template Analysis
The weekly template is a core concept in Stacey Burke’s trading style. FO highlights individual candle states. With this the state of the trend and the developing weekly template can be evaluated precisely. The analysis is done on the daily timeframe and we are looking especially for overextended situations within a week, after multiple breakouts and for peak formations signalling potential reversals. This is helpful for thesis generation before a session and also for backtesting. The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration.
📈 Example: Weekly Template Analysis snapshot on daily timeframe
2. High Timeframe 5-Star Setup Analysis (Stacey Burke "ain't coming back" ACB Template)
This analysis identifies high-probability trade opportunities when daily breakout or down closes occur near key monthly levels mid-week, signalling overextensions and potentially large parabolic moves. Key signals for this are breakout or down closes occurring on a Wednesday. This is helpful for thesis generation before a session and also for backtesting. The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration. Also an indicator can bee seen on this chart shading every Wednesday to identify the signal.
📉 Example: High Timeframe Setup snapshot
3. Low Timeframe Entry Confirmation
FO helps confirm entry signals after a setup is identified, allowing traders to time their entries and exits more precisely. For this the highlighted Switch and/ or Fakeout bars can be highly valuable.

Pivot Breakouts with MA FilterPivot Breakouts with MA Filter
This script identifies pivot breakouts (both bullish and bearish) using support and resistance levels and overlays breakout labels, arrows, and customizable Moving Averages. It allows traders to fine-tune their analysis with multiple options to customize the display and behavior of the breakout signals.
Key Features:
Pivot Support and Resistance:
Support is defined by the lowest low in a given range (using the lookback period).
Resistance is defined by the highest high in a given range (using the lookback period).
The script draws support and resistance boxes on the chart when these levels change, providing clear visual markers for potential breakout areas.
Breakout Detection:
Bullish Breakout: A breakout above resistance and the price is above the selected moving average (MA).
Bearish Breakout: A breakdown below support and the price is below the selected MA.
Breakout events trigger labels indicating "Resistance Breakout" (for bullish) and "Support Breakout" (for bearish).
The option to show Breakout Labels (with customizable colors) is available in the settings.
Moving Average Filter:
You can select the type of moving average (SMA or EMA) to use for filtering breakout signals.
MA Filter Length: This input allows you to set the period of the moving average to act as a filter for breakout conditions. This helps ensure the breakout aligns with the broader trend.
Multiple Moving Averages (Optional):
You can add up to four different moving averages (SMA or EMA), each with its own length and color.
You have the option to toggle each moving average on or off and adjust their appearance settings (color and length).
The script supports dynamic plots for each moving average, helping to visualize multiple trends at once.
Breakout Arrows:
The script can display arrows (or other shapes) below the bar for bullish breakouts and above the bar for bearish breakouts.
Arrows are optional and can be turned on/off in the settings.
You can customize the shape of the arrows (e.g., arrow, circle, square, or even a large or small triangle).
Customizable Colors and Labels:
The color of the breakout labels and arrows can be customized in the settings to make them fit your chart's style and personal preferences.
Alerts:
Alerts can be set for new support and resistance levels, as well as when breakouts occur (either bullish or bearish).
The alert system helps to notify traders when significant price action takes place without needing to constantly monitor the chart.
Settings:
Select Moving Average Type (SMA or EMA)
MA Filter Length: Length of the moving average used for filtering breakout conditions.
Lookback Range: Determines the range over which the pivot points (support and resistance) are calculated.
Breakout Labels: Option to turn on/off breakout labels, and customize label colors.
Show Breakout Arrows: Enable or disable breakout arrows with shape options (arrow, circle, square, large triangle, small triangle).
Multiple Moving Averages: Option to show up to 4 MAs with customizable colors and lengths.
FVG Breakout/BreakdownThe FVG Breakout/Breakdown indicator is designed to identify potential breakout and breakdown opportunities in the market, based on the concept of Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). FVGs are areas where price moves too quickly, leaving behind gaps between candlesticks, often seen as areas of inefficiency or imbalance that the market tends to revisit.
Key Concepts:
Fair Value Gaps (FVG):
FVG occurs when a price gap is created between candlesticks, typically when the high of one candle is lower than the low of the previous candle (for a bearish FVG) or the low of one candle is higher than the high of the previous candle (for a bullish FVG).
These gaps represent an imbalance between buying and selling pressure, and the market often revisits them, making them valuable for identifying potential entry points.
Bullish FVG: This occurs when the low of the current candle is higher than the high of the previous candle.
Condition: low > high
Bearish FVG: This occurs when the high of the current candle is lower than the low of the previous candle.
Condition: high < low
Breakout/Breakdown Signals:
Breakout: A bullish breakout signal occurs when the price breaks above a defined resistance level after an FVG gap. This suggests that the market may continue moving higher.
Breakdown: A bearish breakdown signal occurs when the price breaks below a defined support level after an FVG gap. This suggests that the market may continue moving lower.
NWOG (New Week Opening Gap):
The NWOG can be used as an additional factor to confirm the FVG signal. The gap between Friday's close and Monday's open is a crucial level for identifying the start of a new move for the week.
NWOG helps to further refine the timing of breakout or breakdown signals, only triggering them when price moves relative to the Monday Open and shows a new direction.

TMA Bands with Break Arrow @ClearTradingMind
The "TMA Bands with Break Arrow" indicator, developed by ClearTradingMind, is designed to provide traders with insights into potential trend reversals based on the movement of price within a channel defined by the Triangular Moving Average (TMA) and its bands. The TMA is a smoothed moving average, and this indicator adds upper and lower bands to visualize potential breakouts.
Key Components:
1. TMA Bands: The indicator plots the upper and lower bands of the TMA channel. These bands represent potential overbought (upper band) and oversold (lower band) conditions.
2. Break Arrows: The indicator generates buy (green triangle up) and sell (red triangle down) arrows when the closing price breaks above the upper band or below the lower band, indicating a potential trend reversal.
3. Background Color: The background color dynamically changes based on the last generated signal. A blue background suggests a recent buy signal, while a red background indicates a recent sell signal. This provides a quick visual reference for the prevailing market sentiment.
Usage:
1. Trend Reversals: Traders can use the buy and sell arrows as signals for potential trend reversals. A buy signal suggests a possible upward trend, while a sell signal suggests a potential downward trend.
2. Channel Breakouts: Watch for price breaking above the upper band (buy signal) or below the lower band (sell signal). These breakouts may indicate the start of a new trend.
3. Volatility Analysis: The width of the TMA channel represents volatility. A widening channel suggests increased volatility, while a narrowing channel suggests decreasing volatility.
4. Background Color: The background color provides additional context. A blue background indicates recent bullish sentiment, while a red background suggests recent bearish sentiment.
Parameters:
- TMA Period: The number of bars used to calculate the Triangular Moving Average.
- ATR Period: The number of bars used to calculate the Average True Range (ATR) for determining the width of the TMA channel.
- ATR Multiplier: A multiplier applied to the ATR to determine the width of the TMA channel.
Note: This indicator is a tool to assist traders in their analysis, and it is recommended to use it in conjunction with other technical and fundamental analysis methods for more comprehensive decision-making.
Disclaimer: Trading involves risk, and this indicator does not guarantee profit. Users should conduct thorough analysis and risk management before making trading decisions.
Support and Resistance Signals MTF [LuxAlgo]The Support and Resistance Signals MTF indicator aims to identify undoubtedly one of the key concepts of technical analysis Support and Resistance Levels and more importantly, the script aims to capture and highlight major price action movements, such as Breakouts , Tests of the Zones , Retests of the Zones , and Rejections .
The script supports Multi-TimeFrame (MTF) functionality allowing users to analyze and observe the Support and Resistance Levels/Zones and their associated Signals from a higher timeframe perspective.
This script is an extended version of our previously published Support-and-Resistance-Levels-with-Breaks script from 2020.
Identification of key support and resistance levels/zones is an essential ingredient to successful technical analysis.
🔶 USAGE
Support and resistance are key concepts that help traders understand, analyze and act on chart patterns in the financial markets. Support describes a price level where a downtrend pauses due to demand for an asset increasing, while resistance refers to a level where an uptrend reverses as a sell-off happens.
The creation of support and resistance levels comes as a result of an initial imbalance of supply/demand, which forms what we know as a swing high or swing low. This script starts its processing using the swing highs/lows. Swing Highs/Lows are levels that many of the market participants use as a historical reference to place their trading orders (buy, sell, stop loss), as a result, those price levels potentially become and serve as key support and resistance levels.
One of the important features of the script is the signals it provides. The script follows the major price movements and highlights them on the chart.
🔹 Breakouts (non-repaint)
A breakout is a price moving outside a defined support or resistance level, the significance of the breakout can be measured by examining the volume. This script is not filtering them based on volume but provides volume information for the bar where the breakout takes place.
🔹 Retests
Retest is a case where the price action breaches a zone and then revisits the level breached.
🔹 Tests
Test is a case where the price action touches the support or resistance zones.
🔹 Rejections
Rejections are pin bar patterns with high trading volume.
Finally, Multi TimeFrame (MTF) functionality allows users to analyze and observe the Support and Resistance Levels/Zones and their associated Signals from a higher timeframe perspective.
🔶 SETTINGS
The script takes into account user-defined parameters to detect and highlight the zones, levels, and signals.
🔹 Support & Resistance Settings
Detection Timeframe: Set the indicator resolution, the users may examine higher timeframe detection on their chart timeframe.
Detection Length: Swing levels detection length
Check Previous Historical S&R Level: enables the script to check the previous historical levels.
🔹 Signals
Breakouts: Toggles the visibility of the Breakouts, enables customization of the color and the size of the visuals
Tests: Toggles the visibility of the Tests, enables customization of the color and the size of the visuals
Retests: Toggles the visibility of the Retests, enables customization of the color and the size of the visuals

Broken Fractal : Someone's broken dream is your profit!Idea
The idea is simple : when market turns around, it traps a bunch of traders off guard. We trade with them, in the same direction of their exit!
Method
We let the market first create a fractal
We then let the market create an opposite fractal
We then let the market break the first fractal it created, thereby trapping lots of trades in the process
We then patiently wait till the market gives these trapped traders a chance to exit - and we trade in the same direction
How to use?
Green boxes are for long entry, red boxes are for short.
Whenever a box appears, that's the risk criteria - setup limit orders and trade along!
Works on all timeframes
If you like this script, please leave a note on how you are using it.
I personally use it with Higher Timeframe bias.
PS1 : some traders call this Break of market structure, some call it Breaker, I just call it "Broken Fractal"
PS2 : Break of a broken fractal is also very potent. Watch out for those!
HTF Control Shift + Prev Candle Break Sequence 🧭 HTF Control Shift + Previous Candle Break Sequence
Overview
The HTF Control Shift + Previous Candle Break Sequence indicator identifies high-probability shift candles that suggest a potential change in market control — from sellers to buyers or vice versa — and then tracks whether price confirms that shift by breaking the previous candle’s high or low.
This tool is designed to help traders detect institutional control shifts and confirm them with price structure breaks, providing a framework for spotting early trend reversals or strong continuation moves.
How It Works
Control Shift Candle Detection
A Bullish Control Shift occurs when a candle shows:
A long lower wick (≥ Wick % Threshold of total range).
A close near the high (within Body % Threshold of the top).
A Bearish Control Shift occurs when a candle shows:
A long upper wick (≥ Wick % Threshold of total range).
A close near the low (within Body % Threshold of the bottom).
These candles are highlighted in green (bullish) or red (bearish), and optionally labeled on the chart.
Previous Candle High/Low Tracking
The script automatically plots horizontal lines at the previous candle’s high (green) and low (red).
These act as key reference levels for breakout confirmation.
Breakout Confirmation Sequence
A Bullish Sequence triggers when a Bullish Control Shift candle is followed by a break above the previous candle’s high.
A Bearish Sequence triggers when a Bearish Control Shift candle is followed by a break below the previous candle’s low.
When either sequence completes, the indicator can send a TradingView alert confirming the directional breakout.
How to Use
Timeframe:
Optimized for higher timeframes (1H, 4H, Daily) to filter out intraday noise and identify structural market shifts.
Trend Reversal Identification:
Watch for Control Shift candles at major highs/lows, order blocks, or liquidity zones — a confirmed breakout often signals a trend reversal or new directional push.
Continuation Confirmation:
In trending markets, a Control Shift candle that breaks in the direction of trend can validate a strong continuation setup.
Alert Usage:
Set alerts for:
Bullish Control Shift Confirmed Breakout
Bearish Control Shift Confirmed Breakdown
Optional: raw Control Shift or Break alerts.
Customization
Wick % Threshold: Adjusts the required wick size to define a control shift.
Body % Threshold: Controls how close the close must be to the high/low for confirmation.
Label Toggle: Optionally display labels only on control shift candles.
Best Practices
Combine with higher-timeframe trend filters.
Avoid using it alone in tight consolidation zones.
Strongest signals occur when:
Control Shift appears at key structure levels.
The breakout bar closes firmly beyond the previous high/low.
Volume supports the breakout.
Summary
✅ Detects when market control flips (buyers ↔ sellers).
✅ Confirms shift with breakout above/below previous candle.
✅ Ideal for 1H–4H swing or position trading.
✅ Provides visual, structural, and alert-based confirmation.

❌ Extensions (off by default, toggle if needed)
✅ Golden Pocket Retest available, tolerance 0.11 (optional)
📈 Signals
Green "LONG" Label: Valid breakout above ORB with trend confirmation.
Red "SHORT" Label: Valid breakdown below ORB with trend confirmation.
Blocked (debug text): Signal suppressed by filters (low volume, too late, no retest, etc.).
🎯 Trade Management
Default R:R is 2:1 (stop at ORB edge, TP projected).
For manual trading (e.g., Webull, IBKR), you can use the plotted TP/SL boxes directly.
Fibonacci + Golden Pocket give additional profit-taking levels and retest filters.
✅ Best Practices
Use 15m chart for main ORB entries.
Confirm direction with HTF trend (45m EMA by default).
Avoid signals blocked by “Low Volume” or “Too Late” (debug helps identify).
Adjust ORB % range for asset volatility (tight for ETFs, wider for futures).
🚀 Why ORB Pro?
This is more than a standard ORB indicator. It’s a professional breakout system with filters designed to avoid false breakouts, automatically handle risk/reward, and guide traders with clear visual signals. Perfect for both systematic day traders and discretionary scalpers who want structure and confidence.
👉 Recommended starting point:
Load defaults → trade the 15m ORB with EMA + HTF filters on → let the script handle retests and stop/target placement.
Pivot and Wick Boxes with Break Signals v2█ OVERVIEW
The "Pivot and Wick Boxes with Break Signals v2" is an advanced Pine Script® technical analysis tool that identifies pivot points (highs and lows) on the chart and draws customizable boxes based on the wicks of pivot candles. It is ideal for traders using price action strategies, helping to identify key support and resistance levels and potential breakout trading opportunities. With flexible settings, a volume filter, and label grouping, the indicator ensures clarity and precision on the chart.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator modifies how zones are drawn, displaying boxes on the latest candle rather than extending from the zones based on pivot candle wicks. This approach prevents visual clutter on the chart, allowing simultaneous use of other indicators without sacrificing clarity.
Why are wicks important?Wicks of pivot candles indicate significant market reactions in key areas. Depending on the context, they may signal rejection, testing, or absorption of support or resistance levels. Long wicks often appear where large players are active, and the marked zones are frequently retested. The indicator enables quick identification and observation of their impact on future price movements.
█ FEATURES
Pivot Detection: Identifies pivot points (highs and lows) based on a user-defined lookback period (Pivot Length), with options to display boxes for high and low pivot candle wicks separately.
Customizable Boxes: Draws boxes based on pivot candle wicks with adjustable border colors, background gradients, border styles (solid, dashed, dotted), and border widths.
Breakout Signals: Generates buy (green upward triangle) and sell (red downward triangle) signals when the price breaks through a pivot and the candle closes on the opposite side, indicating potential trend continuation. If the price approaches a pivot zone but fails to break it, this may suggest a potential trend reversal or the end of a correction.
Volume Filter: Optional volume-based signal filter that requires breakouts to have a volume exceeding a user-defined multiplier of the average volume over a specified period. Note: the volume filter will not work on markets where volume data is unavailable.
Label Grouping: Automatically groups overlapping pivot labels to avoid chart clutter, displaying only key price levels.
█ HOW TO USE
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to your TradingView chart via the Pine Editor or Indicators menu.
Configure Settings:
Pivot Settings: Adjust Pivot Length to change the sensitivity of pivot detection—the value represents the number of candles, which equals the delay in displaying the pivot. Larger values generate fewer pivots, but they are generally more significant. Set Max High Pivot Boxes and Max Low Pivot Boxes to control the number of displayed boxes.
Signal Settings: Enable Use Volume Filter for Signals to require higher volume for breakouts, and adjust Average Volume Multiplier and Average Volume Period. A volume multiplier of 1 means the filter allows pivots with a volume equal to or greater than the average volume over the specified period.
Box Styling: Configure border colors, background gradients, line thickness, and border styles for high and low pivot boxes.
Interpreting Signals:
Buy Signal: A green triangle below the bar indicates a breakout above a high pivot box, suggesting potential continuation of an uptrend.
Sell Signal: A red triangle above the bar indicates a breakout below a low pivot box, suggesting potential continuation of a downtrend.
Non-Breakout Zones: If the price approaches a pivot zone but fails to break it, it may indicate a potential trend reversal or the end of a correction (e.g., price rejection at a resistance level in a downtrend or a support level in an uptrend).
Overlapping Zones: If pivot zones overlap, it indicates the level has been tested multiple times, suggesting its significance in the market.
Use signals in conjunction with other technical analysis tools for confirmation.
Monitoring Levels: Use labeled pivot levels as potential support and resistance zones for trade planning.
█ APPLICATIONS
Price Action Trading: Use pivot levels as support and resistance zones. For example, in an uptrend, you can look for buying opportunities near low pivot zones (support), where price often bounces after testing the wick of a pivot candle. Combining with other indicators, such as Fibonacci levels, enhances the significance of pivot zones—if they align with Fibonacci levels and are accompanied by high volume, the zone is considered stronger.
Breakout Strategies: Trade based on breakout signals from key pivot zones. A buy signal after a breakout from a high pivot with confirmed volume may indicate continued upward movement. Using the indicator with other tools, such as moving averages or RSI, can help confirm the strength of the breakout.
Practical Approach:
The more frequently a zone is tested in a short period, the higher the risk of a breakout, as supply or demand may be exhausted.
The longer a zone holds without breaking, the more significant it becomes for the market, both psychologically and technically.
As the saying goes: “A zone is strong until it breaks—when it does, a strong move often follows.”
How to observe?
Strong bounces from a zone indicate that demand or supply remains active.
Weaker bounces or price lingering near the level may suggest the market is preparing for a breakout.
█ NOTES
Test the indicator across different timeframes and markets (stocks, forex, crypto) to optimize settings for your trading style.
The volume filter will not work on markets where volume data is unavailable. In such cases, disable the volume filter in the settings.
For best results, use on high-liquidity markets when the volume filter is enabled.
Instant Breakout Strategy with RSI & VWAPInstant Breakout Strategy with RSI & VWAP
This TradingView strategy (Pine Script v6) trades breakouts using pivot points, with optional filters for volume, momentum, RSI, and VWAP. It’s optimized for the 1-second timeframe.
Overview
The strategy identifies breakouts when price crosses above resistance (pivot highs) or below support (pivot lows). It can use basic pivot breakouts or add filters for stronger signals. Take-profit and stop-loss levels are set using ATR, and signals are shown on the chart.
Inputs
Left/Right Pivot Bars: Bars to detect pivots (default: 3). Lower values increase sensitivity.
Volume Surge Multiplier: Volume threshold vs. 20-period average (default: 1.5).
Momentum Threshold: Minimum % price change from bar open (default: 1%).
Take-Profit ATR Multiplier: ATR multiplier for take-profit (default: 9.0).
Stop-Loss ATR Multiplier: ATR multiplier for stop-loss (default: 1.0).
Use Filters: Enable/disable volume, momentum, RSI, and VWAP filters (default: off).
How It Works
1. Pivot Detection
Finds pivot highs (resistance) and lows (support) using ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow.
Tracks the latest pivot levels.
2. Volume Surge
Compares current volume to a 20-period volume average.
A surge occurs if volume exceeds the average times the multiplier.
3. Momentum
Measures price change from the bar’s open.
Bullish: Price rises >1% from open.
Bearish: Price falls >1% from open.
4. RSI and VWAP
RSI: 3-period RSI. Above 50 is bullish; below 50 is bearish.
VWAP: Price above VWAP is bullish; below is bearish.
5. ATR
14-period ATR sets take-profit (close ± atr * 9.0) and stop-loss (close ± atr * 1.0).
Trading Rules
Breakout Conditions
Bullish Breakout:
Price crosses above the latest pivot high.
With filters: Volume surge, bullish momentum, RSI > 50, price > VWAP.
Without filters: Only the crossover is needed.
Bearish Breakout:
Price crosses below the latest pivot low.
With filters: Volume surge, bearish momentum, RSI < 50, price < VWAP.
Without filters: Only the crossunder is needed.
Entries and Exits
Long: Enter on bullish breakout. Set take-profit and stop-loss. Close any short position.
Short: Enter on bearish breakout. Set take-profit and stop-loss. Close any long position.
Visuals
Signals: Green triangles (bullish) below bars, red triangles (bearish) above bars.
Pivot Levels: Green line (resistance), red line (support).
Indicators: RSI (blue, separate pane), VWAP (purple, on chart).
How to Use
Apply to a 1-second chart in TradingView for best results.
Adjust inputs (e.g., pivot bars, multipliers). Enable filters for stricter signals.
Watch for buy/sell triangles and monitor RSI/VWAP.
Use ATR-based take-profit/stop-loss for risk management.
Notes
Best on 1-second timeframe due to fast RSI and responsiveness.
Disable filters for more signals (less confirmation).
Backtest before live trading to check performance.
This strategy uses pivots, volume, momentum, RSI, and VWAP for clear breakout trades on the 1-second timeframe.
True Breakout Pattern [TradingFinder] Breakout Signal Indicator🔵 Introduction
In many market conditions, what initially appears to be a decisive breakout often turns out to be nothing more than a false breakout or fake breakout. Price breaks through a key swing level or an important support and resistance zone, only to quickly return to its previous range.
These failed breakouts, which are often the result of liquidity traps or market manipulation, serve more as a warning sign of structural weakness than confirmation of a new trend.
This indicator is designed around the concept of the fake breakout.
The logic is simple but precise : when price breaks a swing level and returns to that level within a maximum of five candles, the move is considered a false breakout. At this point, a Fibonacci retracement is applied to the recent price swing to evaluate the pullback area.
If price, within ten candles after the return to the breakout level, enters the Fibonacci zone between 0.618 and 1.0, the setup becomes valid for a potential entry. This area is identified as a long entry zone, with the stop loss placed just beyond the 1.0 level and the take profit defined based on the desired risk-to-reward ratio.
By combining accurate detection of false breakouts, analysis of price reaction to swing levels, and alignment with Fibonacci retracement logic, this framework allows traders to identify opportunities often missed by others. In a market where failed breakouts are a common and recurring phenomenon, this indicator aims to transform these traps into measurable trading opportunities.
Long Setup :
Short Setup :
🔵 How to Use
This indicator operates based on the recognition of false breakouts from structural levels in the market, specifically swing levels, and combines that with Fibonacci retracement analysis.
In this strategy, trades are only considered when price returns to the broken level within a defined time window and reacts appropriately inside a predefined Fibonacci range. Depending on the direction of the initial breakout, the system outlines two scenarios for long and short setups.
🟣 Long Setup
In the long setup, price initially breaks below a support level or swing low. If the price returns to the broken level within a maximum of five candles, the move is identified as a fake breakout.
At this stage, a Fibonacci retracement is drawn from the recent high to the low. If price, within ten candles of returning to the level, moves into the 0.618 to 1.0 Fibonacci zone, the conditions for a long entry are met.
The stop loss is placed slightly below the 1.0 level, while the take profit is set based on the trader’s preferred risk-reward ratio. This setup aims to capture deeply discounted entries at low risk, aligned with smart money reversals.
🟣 Short Setup
In the short setup, the price breaks above a resistance level or swing high. If the price returns to that level within five candles, the move is again treated as a false breakout. Fibonacci is then drawn from the recent low to the high to observe the retracement area.
Should price enter the 0.618 to 1.0 Fibonacci range within ten candles of returning, a short entry is considered valid. In this case, the stop loss is placed just above the 1.0 level, and the take profit is adjusted based on the intended risk-reward target. This method allows traders to identify high-probability short setups by focusing on failed breakouts and deep pullbacks.
🔵 Settings
🟣 Logical settings
Swing period : You can set the swing detection period.
Valid After Trigger Bars : Limits how many candles after a fake breakout the entry zone remains valid.
Max Swing Back Method : It is in two modes "All" and "Custom". If it is in "All" mode, it will check all swings, and if it is in "Custom" mode, it will check the swings to the extent you determine.
Max Swing Back : You can set the number of swings that will go back for checking.
🟣 Display settings
Displaying or not displaying swings and setting the color of labels and lines.
🟣 Alert Settings
Alert False Breakout : Enables alerts for Breakout.
Message Frequency : Determines the frequency of alerts. Options include 'All' (every function call), 'Once Per Bar' (first call within the bar), and 'Once Per Bar Close' (final script execution of the real-time bar). Default is 'Once per Bar'.
Show Alert Time by Time Zone : Configures the time zone for alert messages. Default is 'UTC'.
🔵 Conclusion
A sound understanding of the false breakout phenomenon and its relationship to structural price behavior is essential for technical traders aiming to improve precision and consistency. Many poor trading decisions stem from misinterpreting failed breakouts and entering too early into weak signals.
A structured approach, grounded in the analysis of swing levels and validated through specific price action and timing rules, can turn these misleading moves into valuable trade opportunities.
This indicator, by combining fake breakout detection with time filters and Fibonacci-based retracement zones, helps traders only engage with the market when multiple confirming factors are in alignment. The result is a strategy that emphasizes probability, risk control, and clarity in decision-making, offering a solid edge in navigating today’s volatile markets.
Squeeze & Breakout Confirmation StrategyThis strategy focuses on identifying periods of low volatility (Bollinger Band Squeeze) and then confirming the direction of the subsequent breakout with momentum, volume, and candle strength.
Concepts Applied: Bollinger Bands (Squeeze), RSI (Momentum), Market Volume (Conviction), Candle Size (Strength)
Buy Signal:
Bollinger Band Squeeze: Look for a period where the Bollinger Bands contract significantly, indicating low volatility and consolidation. The bands should be very close to the price action.
RSI Breakout: After the squeeze, wait for the price to break decisively above the upper Bollinger Band. Simultaneously, the RSI should break above 60 (or even 70), indicating strong bullish momentum.
Volume Surge: The breakout candle should be accompanied by a significant increase in trading volume, ideally above its recent average, confirming strong buying interest.
Strong Bullish Candle: The breakout candle itself should be a large, bullish candle (e.g., a strong green candle with a small upper wick or a bullish engulfing pattern), demonstrating buyer conviction.
Sell Signal (Short):
Bollinger Band Squeeze: Look for a period where the Bollinger Bands contract significantly.
RSI Breakdown: After the squeeze, wait for the price to break decisively below the lower Bollinger Band. Simultaneously, the RSI should break below 40 (or even 30), indicating strong bearish momentum.
Volume Surge: The breakdown candle should be accompanied by a significant increase in trading volume, ideally above its recent average, confirming strong selling interest.
Strong Bearish Candle: The breakdown candle itself should be a large, bearish candle (e.g., a strong red candle with a small lower wick or a bearish engulfing pattern), demonstrating seller conviction.
Trend Impulse Channels (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Trend Impulse Channels (Zeiierman) is a precision-engineered trend-following system that visualizes discrete trend progression using volatility-scaled step logic. It replaces traditional slope-based tracking with clearly defined “trend steps,” capturing directional momentum only when price action decisively confirms a shift through an ATR-based trigger.
This tool is ideal for traders who prefer structured, stair-step progression over fluid curves, and value the clarity of momentum-based bands that reveal breakout conviction, pullback retests, and consolidation zones. The channel width adapts automatically to market volatility, while the step logic filters out noise and false flips.
⚪ The Structural Assumption
This indicator is built on a core market structure observation:
After each strong trend impulse, the market typically enters a “cooling-off” phase as profit-taking occurs and counter-trend participants enter. This often results in a shallow pullback or stall, creating a slight negative slope in an uptrend (or a positive slope in a downtrend).
These “cooling-off” phases don’t reverse the trend — they signal temporary pressure before the next leg continues. By tracking trend steps discretely and filtering for this behavior, Trend Impulse Channels helps traders align with the rhythm of impulse → pause → impulse.
█ How It Works
⚪ Step-Based Trend Engine
At the heart of this tool is a dynamic step engine that progresses only when price crosses a predefined ATR-scaled trigger level:
Trigger Threshold (× ATR) – Defines how far price must break beyond the current trend state to register a new trend step.
Step Size (Volatility-Guided) – Each trend continuation moves the trend line in discrete units, scaling with ATR and trend persistence.
Trend Direction State – Maintains a +1/-1 internal bias to support directional filters and step tracking.
⚪ Volatility-Adaptive Channel
Each step is wrapped inside a dynamic envelope scaled to current volatility:
Upper and Lower Bands – Derived from ATR and band multipliers to expand/contract as volatility changes.
⚪ Retest Signal System
Optional signal markers show when price re-tests the upper or lower band:
Upper Retest → Pullback into resistance during a bearish trend.
Lower Retest → Pullback into support during a bullish trend.
⚪ Trend Step Signals
Circular markers can be shown to mark each time the trend steps forward, making it easy to identify structurally significant moments of continuation within a larger trend.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Alignment
Use the Trend Line and Step Markers to visually confirm the direction of momentum. If multiple trend steps occur in sequence without reversal, this typically signals strong conviction and trend persistence.
⚪ Retest-Based Entries
Wait for pullbacks into the channel and monitor for triangle retest signals. When used in confluence with trend direction, these offer high-quality continuation setups.
⚪ Breakouts
Look for breakouts beyond the upper or lower band after a longer period of pause. For higher likelihood of success, look for breakouts in the direction of the trend.
█ Settings
Trigger Threshold (× ATR) - Defines how far price must move to register a new trend step. Controls sensitivity to trend flips.
Max Step Size (× ATR) - Caps how far each trend step can extend. Prevents runaway step expansion in high volatility.
Band Multiplier (× ATR) - Expands the upper and lower channels. Controls how much breathing room the bands allow.
Trend Hold (bars) - Minimum number of bars the trend must remain active before allowing a flip. Helps reduce noise.
Filter by Trend - Restrict retest signals to those aligned with the current trend direction.

Smart FlexRange Breakout [The_lurker]The Smart FlexRange Breakout tool aims to identify trading opportunities based on price breakouts of dynamic levels (CALL, PUT) with a dotted centerline and the ability to select the applicable market. The tool relies on candlestick analysis over a specific time period (such as 3 hours). Candle data (searchHours) is collected to identify the most significant candle based on candlestick patterns and trading volume during the selected timeframe. Breakout levels and take-profit (TP) targets are then plotted, along with buy and sell signals, breakout notifications, and up/down trend lines based on Pivot Points.
The tool is run according to the selected timeframe.
Practical Use
1- Setup: Adjust the market, timeframe, number of hours, and time zone to suit the trader's needs.
2- Trading: Monitor signals (BUY/SELL) and TP levels to determine entry and exit points.
3- Trend Lines: Use them to understand the overall trend and confirm signals.
---
1. Objective: Identify trading opportunities based on price breakouts
- Trading opportunities: The indicator is designed to help traders identify moments when significant price movements are likely, allowing them to enter buy or sell trades based on market changes.
- Price breakouts: The indicator focuses on moments when prices break through key levels (resistance or support). A breakout occurs when the price exceeds a resistance level (up) or breaks a support level (down), indicating a potential continuation of the movement in the same direction.
- Dynamic: Resistance and support levels are not static; rather, they are calculated based on candlestick analysis over a specific period of time, making them adaptive to current market conditions.
---
2. Dynamic levels (resistance and support levels)
- Resistance levels: These represent prices that the price is difficult to break above, defined here as the high of the most significant candle during the specified period.
- Support levels: These represent prices below which the price is difficult to fall, defined as the low of the most significant candle.
- Dynamic: These levels are recalculated every new search period (searchHours), meaning they change based on the latest market data, unlike traditional static levels.
---
3. Adding a Dotted Center Line
- Center Line: A horizontal dotted line is drawn at the midpoint between the high and low of the most significant candle.
- Purpose:
- Provides a visual reference point for determining the current price position relative to support and resistance levels.
- Helps assess whether the price is moving toward a breakout (near resistance) or a breakout (near support).
- Dotted: The dotted pattern distinguishes it from the solid upper and lower lines, making it easier to distinguish visually.
---
4. Relying on candlestick analysis over a specific time period (searchHours)
- Candlestick Analysis: The indicator examines candlesticks to determine which ones have the most influence on price movement.
- Timeframe (searchHours):
- The user specifies the number of hours (1-6) for candle analysis, which determines the range of data the indicator relies on.
- Example: If searchHours = 3 and timeframe = 30 minutes, 6 candles are analyzed (3 hours ÷ 30 minutes).
- Flexibility: This period can be adjusted to suit different markets (such as volatile cryptocurrencies or more stable Forex).
---
5. Determining the Most Important Candle Based on Candle Patterns and Volume
- The most important candle: is the candle believed to have the greatest impact on price movement based on specific criteria.
- Candle Patterns:
- Candles are analyzed using a candlestick pattern library (such as Engulfing, Hammer, Doji).
- Reversal patterns (such as Morning Star, Shooting Star) are given a high importance score (100 points) because they indicate potential trend changes.
- Trading Volume:
- The trading volume of each candle is measured and compared to the maximum and minimum during the period.
- Volume is calculated as a percentage (0-100) and added to the pattern score to determine the most significant candle.
- Result: The candle with the highest score (patterns + volume) is used to determine support and resistance levels.
---
6. Timeframe
- Time interval: The user selects a time frame for the candles (15, 30, or 60 minutes).
- Importance:
- Determines the number of candles analyzed during the searchHours period.
- Affects the accuracy and speed of the signals (shorter timeframe = faster but less reliable signals; longer timeframe = slower but more reliable signals).
- Example: If the timeframe is 60 minutes and searchHours is 3, only 3 candles are analyzed.
---
7. Drawing Breakout Levels and Take Profit Targets (TP)
- Breakout Levels:
- Upper line (resistance): Drawn at the highest price of the most significant candle and is labeled "CALL".
- Lower line (support): Drawn at the lowest price of the most important candle and is called "PUT."
- These lines represent levels where a breakout is expected to lead to a strong price movement.
- Take Profit Targets (TP):
- Up to 8 bullish (above the upper line) and bearish (below the lower line) TP levels are calculated.
- They are calculated based on a percentage (tpPercentage) added or subtracted from the base lines.
- Example: If tpPercentage = 0.6% and the high price = 100, then bullish TP1 = 100.6, TP2 = 101.2, etc.
- Labels: Labels are drawn for each TP level indicating the value and level (TP1, TP2, etc.).
---
8. Buy and Sell Signals
- Buy (BUY) signal:
- Generated when the price breaks the upper line (ta.crossover).
- The "BUY" label is drawn with the redrawing of the TP levels.
- Sell signal (SELL):
- Generated when the price breaks the lower line (ta.crossunder).
- The "SELL" label is drawn with the redrawing of the TP levels.
- Purpose: To provide clear signals to the trader for making trade entry decisions.

تهدف أداة Smart FlexRange Breakout إلى تحديد فرص التداول بناءً على اختراقات الأسعار للمستويات الديناميكية (CALL، PUT) مع خط مركزي منقط، مع إمكانية اختيار السوق المناسب. تعتمد الأداة على تحليل الشموع اليابانية على مدى فترة زمنية محددة (مثل 3 ساعات). تُجمع بيانات الشموع (searchHours) لتحديد أهم شمعة بناءً على أنماط الشموع وحجم التداول خلال الإطار الزمني المحدد. ثم تُرسم مستويات الاختراق وأهداف جني الأرباح (TP)، بالإضافة إلى إشارات البيع والشراء، وإشعارات الاختراق، وخطوط الاتجاه الصعودي/الهبوطي بناءً على نقاط المحور.
يتم تشغيل الاداه حسب الفاصل المختار timeframe
الاستخدام العملي
1- الإعداد: اضبط السوق، والإطار الزمني، وعدد الساعات، والمنطقة الزمنية لتناسب احتياجات المتداول.
2- التداول: راقب إشارات (الشراء/البيع) ومستويات جني الأرباح لتحديد نقاط الدخول والخروج.
3- خطوط الاتجاه: استخدمها لفهم الاتجاه العام وتأكيد الإشارات.
1. الهدف: تحديد فرص التداول بناءً على اختراقات الأسعار
- فرص التداول: صُمم هذا المؤشر لمساعدة المتداولين على تحديد اللحظات التي يُحتمل فيها حدوث تحركات سعرية كبيرة، مما يسمح لهم بالدخول في صفقات شراء أو بيع بناءً على تغيرات السوق.
- اختراقات الأسعار: يُركز المؤشر على اللحظات التي تخترق فيها الأسعار مستويات رئيسية (مقاومة أو دعم). يحدث الاختراق عندما يتجاوز السعر مستوى مقاومة (صعودًا) أو يخترق مستوى دعم (هبوطًا)، مما يُشير إلى احتمال استمرار الحركة في نفس الاتجاه.
- ديناميكي: مستويات المقاومة والدعم ليست ثابتة؛ بل تُحسب بناءً على تحليل الشموع اليابانية على مدى فترة زمنية محددة، مما يجعلها مُكيفة مع ظروف السوق الحالية.
2. المستويات الديناميكية (مستويات المقاومة والدعم)
- مستويات المقاومة: تُمثل هذه الأسعار التي يصعب على السعر تجاوزها، وتُعرف هنا بأنها ارتفاع الشمعة الأكثر أهمية خلال الفترة المحددة.
- مستويات الدعم: تُمثل هذه الأسعار التي يصعب على السعر الانخفاض دونها، وتُعرف بأنها أدنى مستوى للشمعة الأكثر أهمية.
- ديناميكي: تُعاد حساب هذه المستويات مع كل فترة بحث جديدة (ساعات البحث)، مما يعني أنها تتغير بناءً على أحدث بيانات السوق، على عكس المستويات الثابتة التقليدية.
3. إضافة خط مركزي منقط
- خط المركز: يُرسم خط أفقي منقط عند نقطة المنتصف بين أعلى وأدنى شمعة ذات أهمية.
- الغرض:
- يوفر نقطة مرجعية بصرية لتحديد وضع السعر الحالي بالنسبة لمستويات الدعم والمقاومة.
- يساعد في تقييم ما إذا كان السعر يتحرك نحو اختراق (بالقرب من المقاومة) أو اختراق (بالقرب من الدعم).
- منقط: يُميزه النمط المنقط عن الخطوط العلوية والسفلية المتصلة، مما يُسهّل تمييزه بصريًا.
4. الاعتماد على تحليل الشموع اليابانية على مدى فترة زمنية محددة (ساعات البحث)
- تحليل الشموع اليابانية: يفحص المؤشر الشموع اليابانية لتحديد أيها الأكثر تأثيرًا على حركة السعر.
- الإطار الزمني (ساعات البحث):
- يُحدد المستخدم عدد الساعات (من 1 إلى 6) لتحليل الشموع، والذي يُحدد نطاق البيانات التي يعتمد عليها المؤشر.
- مثال: إذا كانت ساعات البحث = 3 والإطار الزمني = 30 دقيقة، فسيتم تحليل 6 شموع (3 ساعات ÷ 30 دقيقة).
- المرونة: يُمكن تعديل هذه الفترة لتناسب الأسواق المختلفة (مثل العملات المشفرة المتقلبة أو سوق الفوركس الأكثر استقرارًا).
5. تحديد الشمعة الأكثر أهمية بناءً على أنماط الشموع وحجم التداول
- الشمعة الأكثر أهمية: هي الشمعة التي يُعتقد أن لها التأثير الأكبر على حركة السعر بناءً على معايير محددة.
- أنماط الشموع:
- يتم تحليل الشموع باستخدام مكتبة أنماط الشموع (مثل شمعة الابتلاع، وشمعة المطرقة، وشمعة الدوجي).
- تُمنح أنماط الانعكاس (مثل نجمة الصباح، ونجم الشهاب) درجة أهمية عالية (100 نقطة) لأنها تُشير إلى تغيرات محتملة في الاتجاه.
- حجم التداول:
- يُقاس حجم تداول كل شمعة ويُقارن بالحد الأقصى والأدنى خلال الفترة.
- يُحسب الحجم كنسبة مئوية (0-100) ويُضاف إلى درجة النمط لتحديد الشمعة الأكثر أهمية.
- النتيجة: تُستخدم الشمعة ذات أعلى درجة (الأنماط + الحجم) لتحديد مستويات الدعم والمقاومة.
٦. الإطار الزمني
- الفاصل الزمني: يختار المستخدم إطارًا زمنيًا للشموع (١٥، ٣٠، أو ٦٠ دقيقة).
- الأهمية:
- يحدد عدد الشموع المُحللة خلال فترة ساعات البحث.
- يؤثر على دقة وسرعة الإشارات (الإطار الزمني الأقصر = إشارات أسرع ولكن أقل موثوقية؛ الإطار الزمني الأطول = إشارات أبطأ ولكن أكثر موثوقية).
- مثال: إذا كان الإطار الزمني ٦٠ دقيقة وساعات البحث ٣، فسيتم تحليل ٣ شموع فقط.
---
٧. رسم مستويات الاختراق وأهداف جني الأرباح (TP)
- مستويات الاختراق:
- الخط العلوي (المقاومة): يُرسم عند أعلى سعر للشمعة الأكثر أهمية ويُسمى "CALL".
- الخط السفلي (الدعم): يُرسم عند أدنى سعر للشمعة الأكثر أهمية ويُسمى "PUT".
- تمثل هذه الخطوط المستويات التي يُتوقع أن يؤدي فيها الاختراق إلى حركة سعرية قوية.
- أهداف جني الأرباح (TP):
- يتم حساب ما يصل إلى 8 مستويات جني أرباح صعودية (فوق الخط العلوي) وهبوطية (تحت الخط السفلي).
- يتم حسابها بناءً على نسبة مئوية (tpPercentage) تُضاف أو تُطرح من خطوط الأساس.
- مثال: إذا كانت نسبة جني الأرباح = 0.6% وكان أعلى سعر = 100، فإن هدف الربح الصعودي الأول = 100.6، وهدف الربح الثاني = 101.2، وهكذا.
- العلامات: تُرسم علامات لكل مستوى جني أرباح تشير إلى القيمة والمستوى (TP1، TP2، وهكذا).
---
8. إشارات الشراء والبيع
- إشارة الشراء (BUY):
- تُولّد عند اختراق السعر للخط العلوي (ta.crossover).
- تُرسم علامة "الشراء" مع إعادة رسم مستويات جني الأرباح.
- إشارة البيع (SELL):
- تُولّد عند اختراق السعر للخط السفلي (ta.crossunder). - يُرسم مؤشر "بيع" مع إعادة رسم مستويات جني الأرباح.
- الغرض: توفير إشارات واضحة للمتداول لاتخاذ قرارات دخول الصفقة.

Aggregate PDH High Break Alert**Aggregate PDH High Break Alert**
**Overview**
The “Aggregate PDH High Break Alert” is a lightweight Pine Script v6 indicator designed to instantly notify you when today’s price breaks above any prior-day high in a user-defined lookback window. Instead of manually scanning dozens of daily highs, this script automatically loops through the last _N_ days (up to 100) and fires a single-bar alert the moment price eclipses a specific day’s high.
**Key Features**
- **Dynamic Lookback**: Choose any lookback period from 1 to 100 days via a single `High-Break Lookback` input.
- **Single Security Call**: Efficiently retrieves the entire daily-high series in one call to avoid TradingView’s 40-call security limit.
- **Automatic Looping**: Internally loops through each prior-day high, so there’s no need to manually code dozens of lines.
- **Custom Alerts**: Generates a clear, formatted alert message—e.g. “Crossed high from 7 day(s) ago”—for each breakout.

Smarter Money Concepts - OBs [PhenLabs]📊 Smarter Money Concepts - OBs
Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
Smarter Money Concepts - OBs (Order Blocks) is an advanced technical analysis tool designed to identify and visualize institutional order zones on your charts. Order blocks represent significant areas of liquidity where smart money has entered positions before major moves. By tracking these zones, traders can anticipate potential reversals, continuations, and key reaction points in price action.
This indicator incorporates volume filtering technology to identify only the most significant order blocks, eliminating low-quality signals and focusing on areas where institutional participation is likely present. The combination of price structure analysis and volume confirmation provides traders with high-probability zones that may attract future price action for tests, rejections, or breakouts.
🚀 Points of Innovation
Volume-Filtered Block Detection : Identifies only order blocks formed with significant volume, focusing on areas with institutional participation
Advanced Break of Structure Logic : Uses sophisticated price action analysis to detect legitimate market structure breaks preceding order blocks
Dynamic Block Management : Intelligently tracks, extends, and removes order blocks based on price interaction and time-based expiration
Structure Recognition System : Employs technical analysis algorithms to find significant swing points for accurate order block identification
Dual Directional Tracking : Simultaneously monitors both bullish and bearish order blocks for comprehensive market structure analysis
🔧 Core Components
Order Block Detection : Identifies institutional entry zones by analyzing price action before significant breaks of structure, capturing where smart money has likely positioned before moves.
Volume Filtering Algorithm : Calculates relative volume compared to a moving average to qualify only order blocks formed with significant market participation, eliminating noise.
Structure Break Recognition : Uses price action analysis to detect legitimate breaks of market structure, ensuring order blocks are identified only at significant market turning points.
Dynamic Block Management : Continuously monitors price interaction with existing blocks, extending, maintaining, or removing them based on current market behavior.
🔥 Key Features
Volume-Based Filtering : Filter out insignificant blocks by requiring a minimum volume threshold, focusing only on zones with likely institutional activity
Visual Block Highlighting : Color-coded boxes clearly mark bullish and bearish order blocks with customizable appearance
Flexible Mitigation Options : Choose between “Wick” or “Close” methods for determining when a block has been tested or mitigated
Scan Range Adjustment : Customize how far back the indicator looks for structure points to adapt to different market conditions and timeframes
Break Source Selection : Configure which price component (close, open, high, low) is used to determine structure breaks for precise block identification
🎨 Visualization
Bullish Order Blocks : Blue-colored rectangles highlighting zones where bullish institutional orders were likely placed before upward moves, representing potential support areas.
Bearish Order Blocks : Red-colored rectangles highlighting zones where bearish institutional orders were likely placed before downward moves, representing potential resistance areas.
Block Extension : Order blocks extend to the right of the chart, providing clear visualization of these significant zones as price continues to develop.
📖 Usage Guidelines
Order Block Settings
Scan Range : Default: 25. Defines how many bars the indicator scans to determine significant structure points for order block identification.
Bull Break Price Source : Default: Close. Determines which price component is used to detect bullish breaks of structure.
Bear Break Price Source : Default: Close. Determines which price component is used to detect bearish breaks of structure.
Visual Settings
Bullish Blocks Color : Default: Blue with 85% transparency. Controls the appearance of bullish order blocks.
Bearish Blocks Color : Default: Red with 85% transparency. Controls the appearance of bearish order blocks.
General Options
Block Mitigation Method : Default: Wick, Options: Wick, Close. Determines how block mitigation is calculated - “Wick” uses high/low values while “Close” uses close values for more conservative mitigation criteria.
Remove Filled Blocks : Default: Disabled. When enabled, order blocks are removed once they’ve been mitigated by price action.
Volume Filter
Volume Filter Enabled : Default: Enabled. When activated, only shows order blocks formed with significant volume relative to recent average.
Volume SMA Period : Default: 15, Range: 1-50. Number of periods used to calculate the average volume baseline.
Min. Volume Ratio : Default: 1.5, Range: 0.5-10.0. Minimum volume ratio compared to average required to display an order block; higher values filter out more blocks.
✅ Best Use Cases
Identifying high-probability support and resistance zones for trade entries and exits
Finding optimal stop-loss placement behind significant order blocks
Detecting potential reversal areas where price may react after extended moves
Confirming breakout trades when price clears major order blocks
Building a comprehensive market structure map for medium to long-term trading decisions
Pinpointing areas where smart money may have positioned before major market moves
⚠️ Limitations
Most effective on higher timeframes (1H and above) where institutional activity is more clearly defined
Can generate multiple signals in choppy market conditions, requiring additional filtering
Volume filtering relies on accurate volume data, which may be less reliable for some securities
Recent market structure changes may invalidate older order blocks not yet automatically removed
Block identification is based on historical price action and may not predict future behavior with certainty
💡 What Makes This Unique
Volume Intelligence : Unlike basic order block indicators, this script incorporates volume analysis to identify only the most significant institutional zones, focusing on quality over quantity.
Structural Precision : Uses sophisticated break of structure algorithms to identify true market turning points, going beyond simple price pattern recognition.
Dynamic Block Management : Implements automatic block tracking, extension, and cleanup to maintain a clean and relevant chart display without manual intervention.
Institutional Focus : Designed specifically to highlight areas where smart money has likely positioned, helping retail traders align with institutional perspectives rather than retail noise.
🔬 How It Works
1. Structure Identification Process :
The indicator continuously scans price action to identify significant swing points and structure levels within the specified range, establishing a foundation for order block recognition.
2. Break Detection :
When price breaks an established structure level (crossing below a significant low for bearish breaks or above a significant high for bullish breaks), the indicator marks this as a potential zone for order block formation.
3. Volume Qualification :
For each potential order block, the algorithm calculates the relative volume compared to the configured period average. Only blocks formed with volume exceeding the minimum ratio threshold are displayed.
4. Block Creation and Management :
Valid order blocks are created, tracked, and managed as price continues to develop. Blocks extend to the right of the chart until they are either mitigated by price action or expire after the designated timeframe.
5. Continuous Monitoring :
The indicator constantly evaluates price interaction with existing blocks, determining when blocks have been tested, mitigated, or invalidated, and updates the visual representation accordingly.
💡 Note:
Order Blocks represent areas where institutional traders have likely established positions and may defend these zones during future price visits. For optimal results, use this indicator in conjunction with other confluent factors such as key support/resistance levels, trendlines, or additional confirmation indicators. The most reliable signals typically occur on higher timeframes where institutional activity is most prominent. Start with the default settings and adjust parameters gradually to match your specific trading instrument and style.

Expectation Breakers [QuantVue]In technical analysis, an "Expectation Breaker" refers to a market event where price action defies typical patterns and anticipated movements, signaling potential shifts in market sentiment and direction.
This indicator looks to take advantage of these opportunities by identifying 2 types of Expectation Breakers: Downside Reversal Buybacks and Upside Reversal Sellbacks.
Downside Reversal
A downside reversals occur when a stock reaches a new high for the user defined lookback period (65 bars by default), and then experiences a larger-than-average drop and closes near its lows. This usually indicates that the market has overextended itself. The expectation is that there will be 2-3 bars of significant selling, following the downside reversal.
However, a notable sign of strength is if the stock rebounds and closes above the downside reversal bar's high within 1-3 bars. This is known as a Downside Reversal Buyback. A rapid recovery following a downside reversal is a powerful bullish indicator, breaking the expectation of lower prices. The quicker price recovers from a downside reversal, the more meaningful it is. Such a swift rebound suggests that the market's strength was underestimated, as downside reversals typically signal a short-term decline.
Upside Reversal
An upside reversal occurs when a stock reaches a new low for the user-defined lookback period (65 bars by default), and then experiences a larger-than-average rise and closes near its highs. This usually indicates that the market has overextended itself to the downside. The expectation is that there will be 2-3 bars of significant buying, following the upside reversal.
However, a notable sign of weakness is if the stock falls back and closes below the upside reversal bar's low within 1-3 bars. This is known as a Upside Reversal Sellback. A rapid fallback following an upside reversal is a powerful bearish indicator, breaking the expectation of higher prices. The quicker price falls back from an upside reversal, the more meaningful it is. Such a swift fallback suggests that the market's weakness was underestimated, as upside reversals typically signal a short-term rally.
The Expectation Breakers indicator identifies these opportunities by first identifying new highs and lows within a defined lookback period. It then compares the true range (TR), average true range (ATR), and closing range to confirm the significance of these reversals. The use of TR and ATR ensures that the reversals are substantial enough to indicate a genuine shift in market sentiment, helping to identify when price action breaks expectations.

ORB Heikin Ashi SPY 5min Correlation StrategyOverview:
The ORB (Opening Range Breakout) strategy combined with Heikin Ashi candles and Relative Volume (RVOL) indicator aims to capitalize on significant price movements that occur shortly after the market opens. This strategy identifies breakouts above or below the opening range, using Heikin Ashi candles for smoother price visualization and RVOL to gauge the strength of the breakout.
Components:
Opening Range Breakout (ORB): The strategy starts by defining the opening range, typically the first few minutes of the trading session. It then identifies breakouts above the high or below the low of this range as potential entry points.
Heikin Ashi Candles: Heikin Ashi candles are used to provide a smoother representation of price movements compared to traditional candlesticks. By averaging open, close, high, and low prices of the previous candle, Heikin Ashi candles reduce noise and highlight trends more effectively.
Relative Volume (RVOL): RVOL compares the current volume of a stock to its average volume over a specified period. It helps traders identify abnormal trading activity, which can signal potential price movements.
Candle for correlation : In this case we are using SPY candles. It can also use different asset
Strategy Execution:
Initialization: The strategy initializes by setting up variables and parameters, including the ORB period, session timings, and Heikin Ashi candle settings.
ORB Calculation: It calculates the opening range by identifying the high and low prices during the specified session time. These values serve as the initial reference points for potential breakouts. For this we are looking for the first 30 min of the US opening session.
After that we are going to use the next 2 hours to check for breakout opportunities.
Heikin Ashi Transformation: Optionally, the strategy transforms traditional candlestick data into Heikin Ashi format for smoother visualization and trend identification.
Breakout Identification: It continuously monitors price movements within the session and checks if the current high breaches the ORB high or if the current low breaches the ORB low. These events trigger potential long or short entry signals, respectively.
RVOL Analysis: Simultaneously, the strategy evaluates the relative volume of the asset to gauge the strength of the breakout. A surge in volume accompanying the breakout confirms the validity of the signal. In this case we are looking for at least a 1 value of the division between currentVolume and pastVolume
Entry and Exit Conditions: When a breakout occurs and is confirmed by RVOL and is within our session time, the strategy enters a long or short position accordingly. It does not have a stop loss or a takie profit level, instead it will always exit at the end of the trading session, 5 minutes before
Position Sizing and Commissions: For the purpose of this backtest, the strategy allocated 10% of the capital for each trade and assumes a trading commission of 0.01$ per share ( twice the IBKR broker values)
Session End: At the end of the trading session, the strategy closes all open positions to avoid overnight exposure.
Conclusion:
The combination of ORB breakout strategy, Heikin Ashi candles, and RVOL provides traders with a robust framework for identifying and capitalizing on early trends in the market. By leveraging these technical indicators together, traders can make more informed decisions and improve the overall performance of their trading strategies. However, like any trading strategy, it's essential to backtest thoroughly and adapt the strategy to different market conditions to ensure its effectiveness over time.
