ICT HTF Liquidity Levels /w Alert [MsF]Japanese below / 日本語説明は英文の後にあります。
-------------------------
*This indicator is based on sbtnc's "HTF Liquidity Levels". It's a very cool indicator. thank you.
It has 3 functions: visualization of HTF liquidity (with alert), candle color change when displacement occurs, and MSB (market structure break) line display.
=== Function description ===
1. HTF liquidity (with alert)
Lines visualize the liquidity pools on the HTF bars. Alerts can be set for each TF's line.
Once the price reaches the line, the line is repaint.
To put it plainly, the old line disappears and a new line appears. The line that disappeared remains as a purged line. (It is also possible to hide the purged line with a parameter)
The alert will be triggered at the moment the line disappears. An alert will be issued when you touch the HTF's liquid pools where the loss is accumulated, so you can notice the stop hunting with the alert.
This alert is an original feature of this indicator.
The timeframe of the HTF can't modify. You can get Monthly, weekly, daily and H1 and H4.
Each timeframe displays the 3 most recent lines. By narrowing it down to 3, it is devised to make it easier to see visually. (This indicator original)
2. Displacement
Change the color display of the candlesticks when a bullish candle stick or bearish candle stick is attached. Furthermore, by enabling the "Require FVG" option, you can easily discover the FVG (Fair Value Gap). It is a very useful function for ICT trading.
3. MSB (market structure break)
Displays High/Low lines for the period specified by the parameter. It is useful for discovering BoS & CHoCH/MSS, which are important in ICT trading.

IC breakoutThis indicator was implemented to detect indecision candles on a daily and 4-hour timeframe.
The settings of the indicator allow you to specify the maximum size (in percentage ) of the indecision candle, as well as the maximum price range (also in percentage ) between the low and the high of that indecision candle.
Moreover, as the title might indicate, the goal was not to only detect the indecision candles, but to get alerts (and information on the graph) when the high or low of an indecision candle is broken on the next block.
The alerts allow both merged and separate alerts.
The alert "1. IC breakout high/low" will be triggered for both a breakout under the previous low or above the previous high
The alert "2. IC breakout low" will be triggered only for a breakout under the previous low
The alert "3. IC breakout high" will be triggered only for breakout above the previous high

HL-D Close Fraction Oscillator | AdulariDescription:
This indicator calculates the difference between price high's and low's, and fractions it by the close price. If it calculates the difference between a high and low or low and high is defined by whether the current close is higher than the previous close. It is then also rescaled to ensure the value is always appropriate compared to the last set amount of bars.
This indicator can be used to determine whether a market is trending or ranging, and if so in which direction it is trending.
How do I use it?
Never use this indicator as standalone trading signal, it should be used as confluence.
When the value is above the middle line this shows the bullish trend is strong.
When the value is below the middle line this shows the bearish trend is strong.
When the value crosses above the upper line this indicates the trend may reverse downwards.
When the value crosses below the lower line this indicates the trend may reverse upwards.
When the value crosses above the signal this indicates the current bearish trend is getting weak and may reverse upwards.
When the value crosses below the signal this indicates the current bullish trend is getting weak and may reverse downwards.
Features:
Oscillator value indicating the difference between highs and lows fractioned by the close price.
Signal indicating a clear trend and base line value.
Horizontal lines such as oversold, overbought and middle lines, indicating possible interest zones.
How does it work?
1 — Define trend by checking if current close is above or below previous close.
2 — If the current close is above the previous close, calculate the oscillator's value using this formula:
(high - low) / close
2 — If the current close is below the previous close, calculate the oscillator's value using this formula:
(low - high) / close
3 — Smooth the original value using a specified moving average.
4 — Rescale the value using this formula:
newMin + (newMax - newMin) * (value - oldMin) / math.max(oldMax - oldMin, 10e-10)
5 — Calculate signal value by applying smoothing to the oscillator's value.
Symbols at Highs & LowsFor the chosen symbols (Defaults to XLV, XLF, IWM, QQQ), this displays a table that indicates (by color) if each symbol is at the high or low of day. When used with the main indexes, If all symbols are at highs or lows together, this can be a great indicator that a trend day is occurring in the market. You can customize the indicator to use up to 8 symbols of your choice. You can also customize the appearance so that it only displays an "All symbols are at the Lows/Highs" message. Finally, you can customize the % threshold to use when measuring how close to the high/low of day price needs to be in order to be considered "at high/low of day".
NSDT MA High-LowThis may seem like a pretty basic Moving Average indicator but I haven't seen one that changes the calculation point depending if the market is going up or down.
I've added three EMA's (length of 20) on this sample chart to demonstrate the differences. These are not included with the indicator.
Green, EMA calculated on High
Red, EMA calculated on Low
Yellow, EMA calculated on Close (default)
Blue, EMA calculated on HIGH when rising but on LOW when falling. (looks at 3 candles back to gauge direction)
* * * Note you can choose between 5 different Moving Average types
Notice how the Blue line (when going up it's calculated on the High) is catching up to the Green line (which is already calculated on the High)?
Notice how the Blue line (when going down so it's calculated on the Low) is catching up to the Red line (which is already calculated on the Low)?
This gives a faster response in the direction of the market because it switches between calculating on the High or Low based on market direction.

Volume Adaptive Chikou Scalping StudyIDEA PLACEMENT
This indicator uses “Chikou” cross concept of Ichimoku cloud indicator and enhances usage of High/Low data with Volume Breakout and Volatility based dynamic adaption.
I’ve been working on making Moving Averages more adaptive based on Volume Breakout and Volatility but as we know Mas work better on close values. I wanted to create a study that may have maximum data available and that’s how I came up with the concept of making adaptive Ichimoku Cloud. Except, I used different concept than Ichimoku. As we know that Tenkan-sen and Kijun-sen from Ichimoku Cloud average out highest and lowest values within 26 and 9 period respectively but I tried making it Volume Breakout and Volatility based Adaptive but couldn’t get better results.
Along the way I came up with an idea of instead of averaging out just keeping the High/Low values data separate and intact and to do so I took Linear regression of High values of Volume Breakout and Volatility based Adaptive dynamic period and similarly with Low values.
Then the strategy was to use Chikou for crossover and crossunder indication and for this purpose I used Chikou with same dynamic length as used before in High/Low linear regression.
The idea becomes simple as when Adaptive Dynamic Chikou crosses Adaptive Dynamic Linear Regression of High/Low values then Lowest / Highest value within current Adaptive Dynamic Length becomes the next Support / Resistance.
SIGNALS
Not every Chikou cross would give signal instead signal should be supported by either Volume Breakout or Volatility whatever you have selected from.
FIBONACCI EVELOPE BANDS
I’ve included ATR based Fibonacci multiple bands which would act as good support/resistance zones.
DEFAULT SETTINGS
I’ve set default Minimum length to 20 and Maximum length to 50 which I’ve found works best for almost all timeframes but you can change this delta to adpat your timeframe accordingly with more precision.
Dynamic length adoption is enabled based on both Volume and Volatility but only one or none of them can also be selected.
Trend signals verification is enabled based on Volume but Volatility can also be enabled for more precise confirmations.
In “RVSI” settings TFS Volume Oscillator is set to default but others work good too especially Volume Zone Oscillator. For more details about Volume Breakout you can check “MZ RVSI Indicator”
ATR breakout is set to be true if period 14 exceeds period 46 but can be changed if more adaption with volatility is required.
FURTHER ENHANCEMENTS
I’ve used Linear Regression of High/Low values because I found better results with it but SMA and HMA can also be used. I’m planning to perpetually use this study for Dynamically length adaption and trades confirmations in other strategies.
Jeges JigsThis is a combination of all my old indicators, with an added feature for trend lines (inspiration for this came from Wedge Maker script thanks to veryfid, I hope he doesn't mind).
This script looks for a period with increased volatility , as measured by ATR ( Average True Range ), then it looks for a high or a low in that area.
When price is above EMA (400 is default, can be changed), it looks for the highs and adds multiples of ATR to the high. Default values for multipliers are 3,9 and 27, meaning that the script will show 3xATR level above the high, 9xATR above the high and 27xATR above the high.
When price is below EMA it looks for the lows and subtracts multiples of ATR from the low.The script will show 3xATR level below the low, 9xATR below the low and 27xATR below the low.
Multipliers values can be changed as well, making it a versatile tool that shows potential levels of suppport/resistance based on the volatility .
Possible use cases:
Breakout trading, when price crosses a certain level, it may show potential profit targets for trades opened at a breakout.
Stoploss helper. Many traders use ATR for their stoplosses, 1 ATR below the swing low for long trades and 1 ATR above the swing high for short trades are common values used by many traders. In this case, the Lookback value comes handy, if we want to look maybe at a more recent value for swing high/low point.
It highlights ATR peaks, it also displays Bollinger bands of SMA400 (or Ema), breakouts for upper/lower bands.
Another thing you get is Parabolic SAR and Zigzag based on SAR.
ATR Mark Up/DownThis script looks for a period with increased volatility, as measured by ATR (Average True Range), then it looks for a high or a low in that area.
When price is above EMA (200 is default, can be changed), it looks for the highs and adds multiples of ATR to the high. Default values for multipliers are 3,9 and 27, meaning that the script will show 3xATR level above the high, 9xATR above the high and 27xATR above the high.
When price is below EMA it looks for the lows and subtracts multiples of ATR from the low.The script will show 3xATR level below the low, 9xATR below the low and 27xATR below the low.
Multipliers values can be changed as well, making it a versatile tool that shows potential levels of suppport/resistance based on the volatility.
Possible use cases:
Breakout trading, when price crosses a certain level, it may show potential profit targets for trades opened at a breakout.
Stoploss helper. Many traders use ATR for their stoplosses, 1 ATR below the swing low for long trades and 1 ATR above the swing high for short trades are common values used by many traders. In this case, the Lookback value comes handy, if we want to look maybe at a more recent value for swing high/low point.
The levels shown by this indicator are not guaranteed to be or not to be reached by price, these levels should be used in confluence with other indicators and looked at as a visual helper.
That's all, hope you enjoy it!
PS.
*It does not plot the ATR. I don't know how to do it and IF it can be done
** It does not plot the EMA. If necessary,it can be added in a future update
Multi Level ZigZag Harmonic PatternsLets make things bit complicated.
Main difference between this script and the earlier Multi Zigzag Harmonic Pattern is the calculation logic of Zigzag 2, 3 and 4
In the earlier script, all zigzags were plain and were calculated on the basis of different lengths. (Such as 5, 10, 15, 20). These were derived on the basis of Multi Zigzag indicator
In this script, Zigzag 2, 3 and 4 are calculated in slightly different way. They are calculated on the basis of previous zigzag. This means, Zigzag 1 will be the input for Zigzag2 calculation and Zigzag 2 will be the input for Zigzag3 and so on. This is demonstrated in the script - Multi Level Zigzag
One important parameter which is specific to this script is: UseZigZagChain
If checked:
Zigzag2 is formed based on Zigzag1
Zigzag3 is formed based on Zigzag2
Zigzag4 is formed based on Zigzag3
This can lead to patterns covering huge number of candles as this chaining causes exponential effect in each levels. (Effective length grows exponentially in each level)
If unchecked:
Zigzag2 is formed based on Zigzag1 (Same as when checked)
Zigzag3 is formed based on Zigzag1. But, length is set to zigzag2Length + zigzag3Length
Zigzag4 is formed based on Zigzag1. But, length is set to zigzag2Length + zigzag3Length + zigzag4Length
This reduces exponential increase of zigzag lengths over next levels.
Logical ratios of patterns are coded as below:

Strongholds - Objective & Accurate Reference Points / StructuresVery early in my trading career, I came across Pivot Points only to find out that there are as many calculations as one pleases. It was hard to find out which ones work. Most of them probably did only out of randomness, so I ditched the strategy and looked for something else.
I previously used my Oracle Eye and Reference Points scripts but it is time for an upgrade.
Stronghold is a script I have used for quite some time now. I ditched daily and weekly closing prices as not that important. Instead, Strongholds are equipped with:
►Daily High & Low • Azure color
►Weekly High & Low • Dark blue
►Weekly old High & Low • Semi-transparent dark circles
►Monthly High & Low • Wizardly purple
There is an option to print:
►4h High & Low • Semi-transparent red
►VWAP • Lovely purple
►Weekly VWAP • Black
All of the levels and lines are set for 1m, 5m, 10m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 4h, 1D timeframes. If you use any alien timeframe, you may need to enter the code.
You can opt-in and out for certain timeframes. For example, daily levels are visible from 15m or 30, so the indicator won't draw them unless you want to. However, they will not be seen on higher timeframes as there is no reason to show them and oversaturate the chart with lines.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Remember that if you use this script with auto-scale, you need to tick Scale Price Chart Only . Otherwise, your chart will fly to the moon!
Good luck & have fun!
Cumulative Pivot HighLowThis indicator counts number of higher highs/lows and number of lower highs/lows and calculates trend based on that.
Indicator line shows (sum of higher highs/lows - sum of lower highs/lows) derived from last loopback periods. Indicator is green if last two consecutive highs/lows formed are on higher side. Red if on lower side. (Consecutive numbers can be controlled by parameter direction_threshold )
combineHighsAndLows if unselected shows not cumulative version but last consecutive highs and lows marked in red or green according to the trend.
Ichimoku Strategy with Buy and Sell ZonesIchimoku strategy with Buy and Sell Zones basicly using Ichimoku Cloud
Tenkan-sen (Conversion Line): (9-period high + 9-period low)/2
On a daily chart, this line is the midpoint of the 9-day high-low range, which is almost two weeks.
Kijun-sen (Base Line): (26-period high + 26-period low)/2
On a daily chart, this line is the midpoint of the 26-day high-low range, which is almost one month.
Senkou Span A (Leading Span A): (Conversion Line + Base Line)/2
This is the midpoint between the Conversion Line and the Base Line. The Leading Span A forms one of the two Cloud boundaries. It is referred to as “Leading” because it is plotted 26 periods in the future and forms the faster Cloud boundary.
Senkou Span B (Leading Span B): (52-period high + 52-period low)/2
On the daily chart, this line is the midpoint of the 52-day high-low range, which is a little less than 3 months. The default calculation setting is 52 periods, but it can be adjusted. This value is plotted 26 periods in the future and forms the slower Cloud boundary.
Chikou Span: Represents the closing price and is plotted 26 days back.
Kumo Cloud: Kumo cloud between Senkuo Span A and Senkou Span B lines. It can be green or red. Color can be change with the trend.
And, it has 2 zones includes Buy and Sell Zone
For Buy Zone Alert;
- Tenkansen (Conversion Line) should crossover Kijunsen (Base line) above the highest line of cloud
- Price should be above the highest line of cloud
- Chikouspan should be above the cloud
For Sell Zone Alert:
- Kijunsen (Base Line) should crossover Tenkansen (Conversion Line) below the lowest line of cloud
- Price should be below the lowest line of cloud
- Chikouspan should be below the cloud
The indicator has some of Simple Moving Averages and Exponentianl Moving Averages
It includes:
- SMA 50
- SMA 200
- EMA 21
- EMA 500
You have chance to show or hide everything from settings section.
If you hide everything you can only see Buy and Sell zones.
Fibonacci Pivot RangeThis is based on Fibonacci Pivot Points. I forked "CristianD CD_PivotR" code for this. Thanks
"Fibonacci Pivot Points start just the same as Standard Pivot Points. From the base Pivot Point, Fibonacci multiples of the high-low differential are added to form resistance levels and subtracted to form support levels."
Pivot Point (P) = (High + Low + Close)/3
Support 1 (S1) = P - {.382 * (High - Low)}
Support 2 (S2) = P - {.618 * (High - Low)}
Resistance 1 (R1) = P + {.382 * (High - Low)}
Resistance 2 (R2) = P + {.618 * (High - Low)}
Adding more support or resistance levels should be really easy.
CryptoManic_Pivots_fibonacciPivot point fibonacci levels with formula
R3 = PP + ((High - Low) x 1.000)
R2 = PP + ((High - Low) x 0.618)
R1 = PP + ((High - Low) x 0.382)
PP = (H + L + C) / 3
S1 = PP - ((High - Low) x 0.382)

Heikin-Ashi Smoothed with option to change MA types CryptoJoncisPine Script version=3
Author CryptoJoncis
Heikin-Ashi Smoothed
The Heikin-Ashi Smoothed study is based upon the standard Heikin-Ashi study with additional moving average calculations. The following is the calculation formula for the bars:
1. The current bar Open, High, Low, Close values are smoothed individually by using the moving average type specified by the Moving Average Type 1 Input with a length/period specified by the Moving Average Period 1 Input.
2. The Heikin-Ashi bar Open, High, Low, Close values are set using the smoothed values from step 1. This is performed using the standard Heikin-Ashi formula.
3. The final Heikin-Ashi Open, High, Low, Close values are calculated by doing a second smoothing of the bar values from step 2 by using the moving average type specified by the Moving Average Type 2 Input with a length/period specified by the Moving Average Period 2 Input.
If you choose to tick the box where it offers to use only one smoothed HA then it skips the third/final step and you do not need to choose the second MA type for it to work.
Remember, using FRAMA, always make sure you use even number for length.
For simple Heikin-Ashi, please tick single smoothed and DEFAULT (Not smoothed as there are no MA used)
Heikin-Ashi bars are calculated:
1. Close = (Open + High + Low + Close) / 4
This is the average price of the current bar.
2. Open = (Open of Previous Bar + Close of Previous Bar) / 2
This is the midpoint of the previous bar.
3. High = Max of (High, Open, Close)
Highest value of the three.
4. Low = Min of (Low, Open, Close)
Lowest value of the three.

Heiken Ashi + Ichimoku Kinko Hyo StrategyHeikin-Ashi:
Instead of using the open-high-low-close (OHLC) bars like standard candlestick charts, it uses a modified formula. Out of which only following two are used in this strategy.
High = Max (High,Open,Close)
Low = Min (Low,Open, Close)
Ichimoku Kinko Hyo:
The Ichimoku Kinko Hyo system includes five kinds of signal, of which this strategy uses four signals i.e. Tenkan Sen / Kijun Sen Cross, price crosses the Kijun Sen, Chikou Span and Kumo. Although the Chikou Span, Senkou Span A and Senkou Span B (Kumo) are shifted into the past/future, these trigger signals enhances the strategy.
The Tenkan Sen, also known as the Turning or Conversion line, is a moving average of the highest high and lowest low over the last 9 periods in this strategy.
The Kijun Sen, also known as the Standard or Base line, is a moving average of the highest high and lowest low over the last 24 periods in this strategy.
The Chikou Span, also known as the Lagging line, is the closing price plotted 24 periods behind in this strategy.
The Senkou Span A, also known as the 1st leading line, is a moving average of the Tenkan Sen and Kijun Sen and is plotted 24 periods ahead in this strategy.
The Senkou Span B, also known as the 2nd leading line, is a moving average of the highest high and lowest low over the last 51 trading days is plotted 24 periods ahead in this strategy.
BOCS Channel Scalper Indicator - Mean Reversion Alert System# BOCS Channel Scalper Indicator - Mean Reversion Alert System
## WHAT THIS INDICATOR DOES:
This is a mean reversion trading indicator that identifies consolidation channels through volatility analysis and generates alert signals when price enters entry zones near channel boundaries. **This indicator version is designed for manual trading with comprehensive alert functionality.** Unlike automated strategies, this tool sends notifications (via popup, email, SMS, or webhook) when trading opportunities occur, allowing you to manually review and execute trades. The system assumes price will revert to the channel mean, identifying scalp opportunities as price reaches extremes and preparing to bounce back toward center.
## INDICATOR VS STRATEGY - KEY DISTINCTION:
**This is an INDICATOR with alerts, not an automated strategy.** It does not execute trades automatically. Instead, it:
- Displays visual signals on your chart when entry conditions are met
- Sends customizable alerts to your device/email when opportunities arise
- Shows TP/SL levels for reference but does not place orders
- Requires you to manually enter and exit positions based on signals
- Works with all TradingView subscription levels (alerts included on all plans)
**For automated trading with backtesting**, use the strategy version. For manual control with notifications, use this indicator version.
## ALERT CAPABILITIES:
This indicator includes four distinct alert conditions that can be configured independently:
**1. New Channel Formation Alert**
- Triggers when a fresh BOCS channel is identified
- Message: "New BOCS channel formed - potential scalp setup ready"
- Use this to prepare for upcoming trading opportunities
**2. Long Scalp Entry Alert**
- Fires when price touches the long entry zone
- Message includes current price, calculated TP, and SL levels
- Notification example: "LONG scalp signal at 24731.75 | TP: 24743.2 | SL: 24716.5"
**3. Short Scalp Entry Alert**
- Fires when price touches the short entry zone
- Message includes current price, calculated TP, and SL levels
- Notification example: "SHORT scalp signal at 24747.50 | TP: 24735.0 | SL: 24762.75"
**4. Any Entry Signal Alert**
- Combined alert for both long and short entries
- Use this if you want a single alert stream for all opportunities
- Message: "BOCS Scalp Entry: at "
**Setting Up Alerts:**
1. Add indicator to chart and configure settings
2. Click the Alert (⏰) button in TradingView toolbar
3. Select "BOCS Channel Scalper" from condition dropdown
4. Choose desired alert type (Long, Short, Any, or Channel Formation)
5. Set "Once Per Bar Close" to avoid false signals during bar formation
6. Configure delivery method (popup, email, webhook for automation platforms)
7. Save alert - it will fire automatically when conditions are met
**Alert Message Placeholders:**
Alerts use TradingView's dynamic placeholder system:
- {{ticker}} = Symbol name (e.g., NQ1!)
- {{close}} = Current price at signal
- {{plot_1}} = Calculated take profit level
- {{plot_2}} = Calculated stop loss level
These placeholders populate automatically, creating detailed notification messages without manual configuration.
## KEY DIFFERENCE FROM ORIGINAL BOCS:
**This indicator 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 Indicator**: 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 indicator ideal for active day traders who want continuous alert opportunities within consolidation zones rather than waiting for breakout confirmation. However, increased signal frequency also means higher potential commission costs and requires disciplined trade selection when acting on alerts.
## TECHNICAL METHODOLOGY:
### Price Normalization Process:
The indicator 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 indicator 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 indicator 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 indicator 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. Visual markers (arrows and labels) appear on chart, and configured alerts fire immediately.
### Cooldown Filter:
An optional cooldown period (measured in bars) prevents alert spam by enforcing minimum spacing between consecutive signals. If cooldown is set to 3 bars, no new long alert 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 indicator includes a multi-timeframe ATR filter to avoid alerts during low-volatility conditions. Using request.security(), it fetches ATR values from a specified timeframe (e.g., 1-minute ATR while viewing 5-minute charts). The filter compares current ATR to a user-defined minimum threshold:
- If ATR ≥ threshold: Alerts enabled
- If ATR < threshold: No alerts fire
This prevents notifications during dead zones where mean reversion is unreliable due to insufficient price movement. The ATR status is displayed in the info table with visual confirmation (✓ or ✗).
### 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. These levels are displayed as visual lines with labels and included in alert messages for reference when manually placing orders.
### Stop Loss Placement:
Stop losses are calculated 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. SL levels are displayed on chart and included in alert notifications as suggested stop placement.
### 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.
## INPUT PARAMETERS:
### Channel Settings:
- **Nested Channels**: Allow multiple overlapping channels vs single channel
- **Normalization Length**: Lookback for high/low calculation (1-500, default 100)

### Take Profit Settings:
- **TP Method**: Choose Fixed Points or % of Channel
- **TP Fixed (Ticks)**: Static distance in ticks (1+, default 30)
- **TP % of Channel**: Dynamic target as channel percentage (10-100%, default 50%)

- **Colored entry zones** labeled "LONG ZONE ▲" and "SHORT ZONE ▼"
- **Entry signal arrows** below/above bars marking long/short alerts
- **TP/SL reference lines** with emoji labels (⊕ Entry, 🎯 TP, 🛑 SL)
- **Info table** showing channel status, last signal, entry/TP/SL prices, risk/reward ratio, and ATR filter status
- **Visual confirmation** when alerts fire via on-chart markers synchronized with notifications
## HOW TO USE:
### For 1-3 Minute Scalping with Alerts (NQ/ES):
- ATR Timeframe: "1" (1-minute)
- ATR Min Value: 10.0 (for NQ), adjust per instrument
- Entry Zone %: 20-25%
- TP Method: Fixed Points, 20-40 ticks
- SL Offset: 5-10 ticks
- Cooldown: 2-3 bars to reduce alert spam
- **Alert Setup**: Configure "Any Entry Signal" for combined long/short notifications
- **Execution**: When alert fires, verify chart visuals, then manually place limit order at entry zone with provided TP/SL levels
### For 5-15 Minute Day Trading with Alerts:
- ATR Timeframe: "5" or match chart
- ATR Min Value: Adjust to instrument (test 8-15 for NQ)
- Entry Zone %: 20-30%
- TP Method: % of Channel, 40-60%
- SL Offset: 5-10 ticks
- Cooldown: 3-5 bars
- **Alert Setup**: Configure separate "Long Scalp Entry" and "Short Scalp Entry" alerts if you trade directionally based on bias
- **Execution**: Review channel structure on alert, confirm ATR filter shows ✓, then enter manually
### For 30-60 Minute Swing Scalping with Alerts:
- ATR Timeframe: "15" or "30"
- ATR Min Value: Lower threshold for broader market
- Entry Zone %: 25-35%
- TP Method: % of Channel, 50-70%
- SL Offset: 10-15 ticks
- Cooldown: 5+ bars or disable
- **Alert Setup**: Use "New Channel Formation" to prepare for setups, then "Any Entry Signal" for execution alerts
- **Execution**: Larger timeframes allow more analysis time between alert and entry
### Webhook Integration for Semi-Automation:
- Configure alert webhook URL to connect with platforms like TradersPost, TradingView Paper Trading, or custom automation
- Alert message includes all necessary order parameters (direction, entry, TP, SL)
- Webhook receives structured data when signal fires
- External platform can auto-execute based on alert payload
- Still maintains manual oversight vs full strategy automation
## USAGE CONSIDERATIONS:
- **Manual Discipline Required**: Alerts provide opportunities but execution requires judgment. Not all alerts should be taken - consider market context, trend, and channel quality
- **Alert Timing**: Alerts fire on bar close by default. Ensure "Once Per Bar Close" is selected to avoid false signals during bar formation
- **Notification Delivery**: Mobile/email alerts may have 1-3 second delay. For immediate execution, use desktop popups or webhook automation
- **Cooldown Necessity**: Without cooldown, rapidly touching price action can generate excessive alerts. Start with 3-bar cooldown and adjust based on alert volume
- **ATR Filter Impact**: Enabling ATR filter dramatically reduces alert count but improves quality. Track filter status in info table to understand when you're receiving fewer alerts
- **Commission Awareness**: High alert frequency means high potential trade count. Calculate if your commission structure supports frequent scalping before acting on all alerts
## 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 are not included in this indicator version. Multi-timeframe ATR requires higher-tier TradingView subscription for request.security() functionality on timeframes below chart timeframe.
## KNOWN LIMITATIONS:
- **Indicator does not execute trades** - alerts are informational only; you must manually place all orders
- **Alert delivery depends on TradingView infrastructure** - delays or failures possible during platform issues
- **No position tracking** - indicator doesn't know if you're in a trade; you must manage open positions independently
- **TP/SL levels are reference only** - you must manually set these on your broker platform; they are not live orders
- **Immediate touch entry can generate many alerts** 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 TradingView Premium/Pro+ for request.security()
- **Mean reversion logic fails** in strong breakout scenarios - alerts will fire but trades may hit stops
- **No partial closing capability** - full position management is manual; you determine scaling out
- **Alerts do not account for gaps** or overnight price changes; morning alerts may be stale
## RISK DISCLOSURE:
Trading involves substantial risk of loss. This indicator provides signals for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Mean reversion strategies can experience extended drawdowns during trending markets. Alerts are not guaranteed to be profitable and should be combined with your own analysis. Stop losses may not fill at intended levels during extreme volatility or gaps. Never trade with capital you cannot afford to lose. Consider consulting a licensed financial advisor before making trading decisions. Always verify alerts against current market conditions before executing trades manually.
## ACKNOWLEDGMENT & CREDITS:
This indicator is built upon the channel detection methodology created by **AlgoAlpha** in the "Smart Money Breakout Channels" indicator. Full credit and appreciation to AlgoAlpha for pioneering the normalized volatility approach to identifying consolidation patterns. The core channel formation logic using normalized price standard deviation is AlgoAlpha's original contribution to the TradingView community.
Enhancements to the original concept include: mean reversion entry logic (vs breakout), immediate touch-based alert generation, comprehensive alert condition system with customizable notifications, multi-timeframe ATR volatility filtering, cooldown period for alert management, dual TP methods (fixed points vs channel percentage), visual TP/SL reference lines, and real-time status monitoring table. This indicator version is specifically designed for manual traders who prefer alert-based decision making over automated execution.

ASIA AND LONDON BOXES
---
### Purpose:
This indicator highlights the **Tokyo (Asia) and London trading sessions** on a price chart by drawing boxes around the price action during these time frames. It helps traders visually identify the price range (high and low) for each session across multiple days.
---
### Key Features:
1. **Timezone Selection:**
* You can select the timezone offset (default `'GMT-7'`) for the session times.
* This adjusts when the sessions start and end according to your preferred timezone.
2. **Sessions Defined:**
* **Tokyo session** defaults to 17:00 to 23:00 (5 PM to 11 PM) in the selected timezone.
* **London session** defaults to 23:00 to 05:00 (11 PM to 5 AM) in the selected timezone.
* These are customizable through `input.session()`.
3. **Session Boxes:**
* For each day and session, the script:
* Tracks the highest high and lowest low price during the session.
* Draws a box on the chart covering that price range over the session time.
* Boxes can be styled either as a solid box or just a background color (configurable).
* Box opacity and colors are customizable.
4. **Multiple Days Back:**
* The indicator keeps boxes visible for a user-defined number of days back (default 3 days).
* Old boxes beyond this limit are deleted to keep the chart clean.
5. **Session Start/End Detection:**
* It detects the start and end of the Tokyo and London sessions based on the selected session times and timezone.
* At session start: initializes tracking variables for high, low, and bars.
* During the session: updates the high and low.
* At session end: finalizes the session box.
6. **Box Drawing Details:**
* Boxes are drawn using price coordinates (`yloc=yloc.price`), meaning the vertical edges correspond exactly to the high and low prices of the session.
* Horizontally, the boxes stretch from the session start bar to the session end bar.
7. **Performance:**
* Uses arrays to manage multiple boxes.
* Periodically cleans up old boxes to avoid performance degradation.
---
### Summary:
* **Visualizes Tokyo and London trading sessions on your chart with colored boxes.**
* **Boxes highlight the price range during each session (high and low).**
* **Allows customization of session times, colors, opacity, style, and timezone.**
* **Maintains boxes for a set number of past days, then cleans up old ones.**
---
### Why is this useful?
For many traders, especially those trading forex or global indices, knowing the price range during the Asian and London sessions is critical. These boxes let you quickly see support/resistance zones and volatility windows linked to these major market hours.
