Smart Trader, Episode 02, by Ata Sabanci | Battle of Candles ⚠️ CRITICAL: READ BEFORE USING ⚠️
This indicator is 100% VOLUME-BASED and requires Lower Timeframe (LTF) intrabar data for accurate calculations. Please understand the following limitations before using:
📊 DATA ACCURACY LEVELS:
• 1T (Tick) — Most accurate, real volume distribution per tick
• 1S (1 Second) — Reasonably accurate approximation
• 15S (15 Seconds) — Good approximation, longer historical data available
• 1M (1 Minute) — Rough approximation, maximum historical data range
⚠️ BACKTEST & REPLAY LIMITATIONS:
• Replay mode results may differ from live trading due to data availability
• For longer back test periods, use higher LTF settings (15S or 1M)
• Not all symbols/exchanges support tick-level data
• Crypto and Forex typically have better LTF data availability than stocks
💡 A NOTE ON TOOLS:
Successful trading requires proper tools. Higher TradingView plans provide access to more historical intrabar data, which directly impacts the accuracy of volume-based calculations. More precise volume data leads to more reliable signals. Consider this when evaluating your trading infrastructure.
📌 OVERVIEW
Smart Trader Episode 02: Battle of Candles is an advanced educational indicator that combines multiple analysis engines to help traders identify market scenarios and understand market dynamics. This is NOT financial advice or a trading signal service — it's a learning tool designed to help you understand how institutional traders might interpret price action.
The indicator integrates 7 major analysis engines into a unified dashboard, providing real-time insights into volume flow, trend structure, market phases, and potential trade setups.
⚡ KEY FEATURES
🎯 16-Pattern Scenario Engine
Automatically detects and classifies market conditions into 16 distinct scenarios, from strong continuation moves to potential reversals and traps.
💰 Trade Advisor Panel
Aggregates all signals into actionable suggestions with confidence levels, suggested entry/SL/TP levels, and risk/reward calculations.
📊 Volume Engine
Splits volume into buy/sell components using either Geometry (candle shape) or Intrabar (LTF data) methods for precise delta analysis.
📈 CVD (Cumulative Volume Delta)
Tracks the running total of buying vs selling pressure to identify accumulation, distribution, and divergences.
🎯 Stop-Hunt Detection
Identifies potential stop-hunt patterns where price sweeps liquidity levels before reversing.
📐 Pure Structure Trend Engine
Zero-lag trend detection based on swing highs/lows (HH/HL/LH/LL) without any lagging indicators.
⚡ Effort vs Result Analysis
Measures energy spent (volume) versus ground taken (price movement) to detect stalls, breakthroughs, and exhaustion.
🎯 SCENARIO ENGINE — 16 Market Patterns
The Scenario Engine analyzes multiple factors (candle anatomy, volume, forces, CVD, wick analysis) to classify each candle into one of 16 scenarios:
Continuation Scenarios (1-3)
1. ⚔️ STRONG MOVE — Big body candle (>60%) with volume confirming direction. Indicates strong momentum continuation.
2. 🛡️ ABSORPTION — One side attacks but the other absorbs the pressure. Price holds despite volume. Continuation expected in the absorbing side's favor.
3. 📉 PULLBACK — Small move against the trend with low volume. Indicates a healthy retracement before trend continuation.
Reversal Scenarios (4-6, 13-16)
4. 💥 REJECTION — Big wick (>40%) with small body and high volume. Price was rejected
at a level, potential reversal.
5. 🪤 TRAP — Pin direction disagrees with delta. Extreme wick size. Looks bullish/bearish but the opposite may happen.
6. 😫 EXHAUSTION — High energy spent (volume) but low ground taken (price movement). Both sides active but momentum fading.
13. 🔄 CVD BULL DIV — Price falling but CVD rising. Hidden buying detected (accumulation). Potential bullish reversal.
14. 🔄 CVD BEAR DIV — Price rising but CVD falling. Hidden selling detected (distribution). Potential bearish reversal.
15. 🎯 STOP HUNT BULL — Shorts were liquidated below support. Price swept liquidity and reversed. Expect bullish move.
16. 🎯 STOP HUNT BEAR — Longs were liquidated above resistance. Price swept liquidity and reversed. Expect bearish move.
Range/Stalemate Scenarios (7-9)
7. ⚖️ DEADLOCK — Market in balance. Force ratio between 0.4-0.6. Low volume. No side winning.
8. 🔥 BATTLE — High volume fight in a range. Both sides attacking. Wicks on both ends of candle.
9. 🎯 WAITING — Building phase with quiet volume. Market is preparing but no trigger yet. Wait for breakout.
Pre-Breakout Scenarios (10-12)
10. 🚀 BULL SETUP — Buyers accumulating in a building phase. Positive delta building. Bullish pressure growing.
11. 💣 BEAR SETUP — Sellers distributing in a building phase. Negative delta building. Bearish pressure growing.
12. ⚡ BREAKOUT — Price at boundary with strong candle and volume supporting. Imminent breakout expected.
💰 TRADE ADVISOR ENGINE

• 🔴 SHORT ENTRY — Sellers have strong advantage + signals align
• ⚠️ CLOSE LONG/SHORT — Position at risk (reversal/trend flip)
• 🛑 STOP LOSS — Price hit risk threshold
• 💰 TAKE PROFIT — Target threshold reached
📊 EXTENDED INFO PANEL (Detailed Explanations)
The Extended Info panel is hidden by default (toggle: Show Extended Info in settings). It provides detailed metrics that feed into the main engines:
CVD ANALYSIS
What is CVD?
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) is the running total of Buy Volume minus Sell Volume. It reveals the underlying buying/selling pressure that may not be visible in price alone.
CVD Value & Slope:
• ↗ Rising: CVD increasing = net buying pressure (bullish)
• ↘ Falling: CVD decreasing = net selling pressure (bearish)
• → Flat: No clear pressure direction
Accumulation vs Distribution:
• Accumulation %: Shows buying pressure strength (0-100). High accumulation with CVD rising = strong bullish bias.
• Distribution %: Shows selling pressure strength (0-100). High distribution with CVD falling = strong bearish bias.
Divergence Alerts:
• ⚠️ BULLISH DIVERGENCE: Price falling but CVD rising. Hidden buying = potential reversal UP.
• ⚠️ BEARISH DIVERGENCE: Price rising but CVD falling. Hidden selling = potential reversal DOWN.
WICK ANALYSIS
Wick Torque:
Torque measures the "rotational force" from wicks. It's calculated from wick length, volume, and body efficiency.
• Positive Torque (Bullish): Bottom wick power dominates. Buyers defended lower prices.
• Negative Torque (Bearish): Top wick power dominates. Sellers defended higher prices.
• ⚡ High Torque (>30): Strong signal, significant wick rejection occurred.
Stop-Hunt Detection:
The engine detects when price has likely swept stop-losses clustered at key levels:
• Stop Hunt Risk %: Likelihood score (0-100). Above 55% = confirmed hunt.
• "Shorts hunted": Price swept below support, liquidating shorts, expect bounce UP.
• "Longs hunted": Price swept above resistance, liquidating longs, expect drop DOWN.
LIQUIDITY SWEEPS
This section appears only when a liquidity sweep is detected. The engine monitors for price sweeping recent highs/lows and then reversing:
• 🎯 LIQUIDITY SWEPT ABOVE: Price broke recent highs but closed back below. Longs trapped, expect DOWN.
• 🎯 LIQUIDITY SWEPT BELOW: Price broke recent lows but closed back above. Shorts trapped, expect UP.
POWER BALANCE
The Power Balance meter shows the real-time strength comparison between buyers and sellers.
Force Ratio:
• 0% = Complete seller dominance
• 50% = Perfect balance
• 100% = Complete buyer dominance
Visual Bar:
• Left side (▓): Bear territory
• Right side (▓): Bull territory
• The bar is smoothed over recent history to reduce noise.
EFFORT vs RESULT
This section measures the efficiency of price movement relative to volume expended.
Energy:
How much volume was spent relative to the average. Energy > 1.0x means above-average volume activity.
Ground:
How much price movement occurred relative to average range. Ground > 1.0x means above-average price movement.
STALL Warning:
A STALL is detected when high energy is spent but low ground is taken (high effort, low result). This often indicates institutional battle, exhaustion, or imminent reversal.
MARKET PHASE
The Phase Engine classifies the current market regime:
RANGE : No clear trend. Price confined to middle of channel. Low ADX. Balanced forces. Trade breakouts with caution.
BUILDING : Compression/preparation phase. Channel tightening or boundary penetration without follow-through. Watch for breakout direction.
TRENDING : Active directional move. Clear slope, good efficiency, price on trending side of channel. Favor pullback entries.
Strength:
0-100% score combining slope, volume validity, and force/efficiency filters.
Bars: How many candles the current phase has persisted.
TRACK RECORD (Validation Panel)
Enable with Show Validation Panel in settings. This section tracks the historical accuracy of scenario predictions:
Accuracy: Percentage of validated predictions that were correct.
Best/Worst Scenario: Shows which scenarios have the highest and lowest accuracy on the current symbol.
Recent Signals: Last 5 predictions with their outcomes. ✓ = correct, ✗ = wrong, ⏳ = pending validation.
⚙️ SETTINGS GUIDE

4H & Daily Previous Candle + Fibonacci + OTE# Multi-Timeframe OTE & Fibonacci Indicator (4H & Daily)
This Pine Script v5 indicator is designed for traders who utilize **Optimal Trade Entry (OTE)** zones and **Fibonacci retracements** based on higher timeframe market structures. It automatically identifies and plots key levels from the previous 4-hour and Daily candles to help find high-probability reversal zones.
## Key Features
### 1. Dual Timeframe OTE Zones
- **4H OTE Zone**: Automatically calculates and shades the Optimal Trade Entry area (default 61.8% - 78.6%) based on the previous 4-hour candle's range.
- **Daily OTE Zone**: Plots a secondary OTE zone based on the previous Daily candle, allowing for multi-timeframe confluence analysis.
- **Dynamic Adaptation**: The zones automatically flip based on whether the previous candle was bullish or bearish, ensuring you are always looking at the correct retracement levels.
### 2. Automated Market Structure
- **High/Low Tracking**: Plots clear horizontal lines for the previous 4H and Daily Highs and Lows.
- **Visual Distinction**: Daily levels are highlighted with thicker lines to distinguish them from 4H levels.
- **Price Labels**: Displays real-time price labels for all structural levels for quick reference.
### 3. Customizable Fibonacci Retracements
- **4H Fibonacci Levels**: Plots standard retracement levels (23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, 78.6%) for the 4H timeframe.
- **Fully Adjustable**: Users can input custom Fibonacci levels via the settings menu.
### 4. Real-Time Information Dashboard
- **Range Summary**: A clean table in the top-right corner displays the total pip/point range for both the previous 4H and Daily candles.

## How to Use
This indicator is ideal for "Smart Money" or "ICT" style trading. Look for **confluence** where the 4H OTE zone overlaps with the Daily OTE zone or other key structural levels to identify high-precision entry points.
Statistcal Daily Profile & Ranges# Statistical Daily Profile & Ranges - TradingView Publication Guide
## Overview
The **Statistical Daily Profile & Ranges** indicator is a comprehensive tool designed to analyze intraday session behavior and daily range characteristics. It combines Average Daily Range (ADR) projection levels with detailed session-by-session statistics and probability-based trading insights derived from historical price action patterns.
## What This Indicator Does
This indicator provides traders with three core analytical components:
1. **ADR Projection Levels** - Dynamic support/resistance levels based on historical daily ranges
2. **Session Range Analysis** - Visual boxes and statistical breakdowns for four key trading sessions
3. **Dynamic Probability Display** - Real-time probability statistics based on overnight session relationships
## How It Works
### Average Daily Range (ADR) Calculation
The indicator calculates the average daily range over a user-defined lookback period (default: 10 days) and projects this range from each day's opening price. This creates two key levels:
- **ADR High**: Opening price + average daily range
- **ADR Low**: Opening price - average daily range
- **ADR Median**: The opening price (middle of the projected range)
These levels are recalculated at the start of each trading day and extend forward, providing dynamic support and resistance zones based on recent volatility characteristics.
### Session Tracking & Statistics
The indicator monitors four distinct trading sessions (times in Eastern Time):
1. **Asia Session** (8:00 PM - 2:00 AM)
2. **London Session** (2:00 AM - 8:00 AM)
3. **NY Open** (8:00 AM - 9:00 AM)
4. **NY Initial Balance** (9:30 AM - 10:30 AM)
For each session, the indicator:
- Draws a colored box showing the session's high-to-low range
- Tracks the opening price, high, and low
- Stores historical data for statistical analysis
- Calculates average ranges by day of week (Monday through Friday)
The session statistics are displayed in a customizable table showing average point ranges for each session across different weekdays, helping traders identify which sessions and days typically produce the most movement.
### Dynamic Probability System
The indicator analyzes the relationship between the Asia and London sessions to determine the current market setup. After the London session closes, it automatically detects one of four possible conditions:
**1. London Engulfs Asia**
- London session breaks both above Asia's high AND below Asia's low
- This indicates strong momentum during the European session
- Most common occurrence pattern
**2. Asia Engulfs London**
- Asia session range completely contains the London session range
- Indicates consolidation during London hours
- Relatively rare pattern (occurs approximately 5.36% of the time)
**3. London Partially Engulfs Upwards**
- London breaks above Asia's high but stays above Asia's low
- Suggests bullish momentum continuation from Asia into London
**4. London Partially Engulfs Downwards**
- London breaks below Asia's low but stays below Asia's high
- Suggests bearish momentum continuation from Asia into London
Once a condition is detected, the indicator displays a probability table showing historically observed outcomes for that specific setup, including:
- Probability of NY session taking out key levels (Asia high/low, London high/low)
- Probability of NY session engulfing the entire overnight range
- Directional bias for NY Cash session (9:30 AM - 4:00 PM)
## How to Use This Indicator
### Initial Setup
1. Add the indicator to your chart (works on any intraday timeframe below Daily)
2. Adjust the **ADR Days** setting (default: 10) to control the lookback period for range calculation
3. Adjust the **Session Lookback Days** setting (default: 50) to determine how much historical data feeds the statistics tables
### Reading the ADR Levels
- Use the **ADR High** and **ADR Low** lines as potential profit targets or areas where price may encounter resistance
- The **ADR Median** line represents the opening price and can act as a pivot point for intraday directional bias
- If price reaches the ADR High early in the session, it suggests strong bullish momentum; conversely for ADR Low
- These levels adapt daily based on recent volatility, making them more responsive than static levels
### Interpreting Session Boxes
- **Session boxes** visually highlight when each trading session is active and its price range
- Larger boxes indicate higher volatility during that session
- Compare current session ranges to the statistical averages shown in the table
- Sessions that are unusually quiet or active relative to historical averages may signal compression or expansion
### Using the Session Statistics Table
- The table shows average point ranges for each session broken down by weekday
- Identify which sessions typically produce the most movement on specific days
- For example, if London on Thursdays averages 40 points while Mondays average 25 points, you can adjust position sizing or expectations accordingly
- The **Total** column shows the overall average across all days
- Sample sizes (shown in brackets if enabled) indicate data reliability
### Trading with the Probability Table
The probability table updates dynamically after the London session closes and shows statistically probable outcomes based on 12 years of NQ futures data.
**Important Limitations:**
- **These probabilities are derived from NQ (Nasdaq E-mini futures) data only**
- **Do NOT apply these probability statistics to other instruments** (ES, stocks, forex, etc.)
- The probabilities represent historical frequencies, not guarantees
- Always combine with your own analysis, risk management, and market context
**How to Apply the Probabilities:**
When **London Engulfs Asia**:
- Watch for NY session to take out London's extremes (72.33% probability for high, 71.12% for low)
- Slight bullish bias in NY Cash session (54.80% vs 45.20%)
- Lower probability of complete overnight engulfment (44.13%)
When **Asia Engulfs London** (rare - 5.36% occurrence):
- Higher probability NY takes Asia's high (75.86%)
- Moderately high probability NY takes Asia's low (65.52%)
- Slight increase in bullish bias (58.42% vs 41.58%)
- Recognize this as an unusual setup
When **London Partially Engulfs Upwards**:
- Very high probability NY takes London high (81.51%)
- Strong probability NY takes London low (64.45%)
- Moderate probability NY takes Asian low (53.16%)
- Slight bullish bias (55.52%)
When **London Partially Engulfs Downwards**:
- Very high probability NY takes London low (75.29%)
- Strong probability NY takes London high (68.80%)
- Moderate probability NY takes Asian high (56.44%)
- Slight bullish bias maintained (52.99%)
### Practical Trading Applications
**Scenario 1: Range Projection**
If the ADR is 500 points and the market opens at 25,000:
- ADR High: 25,500 (potential resistance/target)
- ADR Low: 24,500 (potential support/target)
- Monitor how price interacts with these levels throughout the day
**Scenario 2: Session-Based Trading**
Using the statistics table, you notice London on Wednesdays averages 35 points. During a Wednesday London session:
- If London has already moved 30 points, the session may be exhausting its typical range
- If London has only moved 15 points with an hour remaining, there may be expansion potential
- Adjust stop losses and targets based on typical session behavior
**Scenario 3: Probability-Based Setup**
It's 8:05 AM ET and the indicator shows "London Partially Engulfs Upwards":
- You now know there's an 81.51% historical probability NY will take out London's high
- There's a 53.16% probability NY will reach down to Asia's low
- The NY Cash session has a slight bullish bias (55.52%)
- Consider this alongside your technical analysis for directional bias and level targeting
## Customization Options
### Visual Settings
- **Line Width**: Adjust thickness of ADR levels
- **ADR Color/Style**: Customize appearance of ADR projection lines (solid, dashed, dotted)
- **Median Line**: Toggle visibility and customize appearance separately
- **Session Box Colors**: Customize each session's box color independently
- **Show Session Boxes**: Toggle session box visibility on/off
### Label Settings
- **ADR Labels**: Show/hide labels for ADR High and ADR Low, adjust size
- **Median Label**: Separate control for median line label
- **Session Labels**: Show/hide session name labels, adjust size
- **Label Colors**: Customize text colors for all labels
### Table Settings
- **Session Stats Table**: Position (9 locations available), size (Tiny to Huge), toggle on/off
- **Sample Sizes**: Show/hide the number of historical samples used for each calculation
- **Probabilities Table**: Separate position and size controls, toggle on/off
### Session Times
- Each session's time range can be customized to fit different markets or preferences
- All times are in Eastern Time (America/New_York timezone)
## Technical Notes
### Data Requirements
- The indicator requires sufficient historical data based on your lookback settings
- Minimum recommended: 50+ days of intraday data for reliable statistics
- Works on any timeframe below Daily (1-minute, 5-minute, 15-minute, etc.)
### Calculation Methodology
- **ADR Calculation**: Simple average of absolute daily high-low ranges
- **Session Statistics**: Mean average of ranges for each session filtered by day of week
- **Condition Detection**: Boolean logic comparing session high/low relationships
- All calculations update in real-time as new bars form
### Probability Data Source
The probability statistics displayed in the dynamic table are derived from:
- **Dataset**: 12 years of NQ (Nasdaq E-mini futures) historical data
- **Methodology**: Frequency analysis of outcomes following specific setup conditions
- **Time Period**: Multiple market cycles including various volatility regimes
**Critical Warning**: These probabilities are specific to NQ and reflect that instrument's behavior patterns. Market microstructure, participant behavior, and volatility characteristics differ significantly across instruments. Do not apply these NQ-derived probabilities to other markets (ES, RTY, YM, individual stocks, forex, commodities, etc.).
## Best Practices
1. **Combine with Other Analysis**: Use this indicator as one component of a complete trading methodology, not a standalone system
2. **Respect Risk Management**: Probabilities are not certainties; always use proper position sizing and stop losses
3. **Context Matters**: High-impact news events, holiday trading, and extreme volatility can invalidate typical patterns
4. **Verify Statistics**: Monitor your own results and compare to the displayed probabilities
5. **Adapt Session Times**: If trading instruments with different active hours, adjust session times accordingly
6. **Regular Calibration**: Periodically review if the session averages and probabilities remain relevant to current market conditions
## Understanding Originality
This indicator is original in its approach to combining three analytical frameworks into a single tool:
1. **Dynamic ADR Projection**: Unlike static pivot points, these levels adapt daily based on recent volatility
2. **Session-Specific Statistics**: Goes beyond simple volume profiles by quantifying average ranges for specific time windows across weekdays
3. **Conditional Probability Display**: Automatically detects overnight session relationships and displays relevant probability data rather than showing all scenarios simultaneously
The conditional logic system that determines which probability set to display is a key differentiator—traders only see the statistics relevant to the current market setup, reducing information overload and improving decision-making clarity.
## Summary
The **Statistical Daily Profile & Ranges** indicator provides traders with a comprehensive framework for understanding daily range potential, session-specific behavior patterns, and probability-based setup analysis. By combining ADR projection levels with detailed session statistics and dynamic probability displays, traders gain multiple perspectives on potential price movement within the trading day.
The indicator is most effective when used to:
- Set realistic profit targets based on average daily range
- Identify which sessions typically produce movement on specific weekdays
- Understand probability-weighted outcomes for different overnight setup conditions (NQ only)
- Visualize session ranges and compare them to historical averages
Remember that all statistical analysis reflects historical patterns, and market behavior can change. Always combine indicator signals with sound risk management, proper position sizing, and your own market analysis.

Periodic Volume Time Velocity ProfileThis is the Periodic Volume Time Velocity Profile (PVTVP). It is an advanced professional profiling tool that goes beyond standard volume analysis by introducing Time and Velocity (Flow Rate) as profile dimensions.
By analyzing high-resolution intra-bar data, it builds
precise profiles for any custom period (Session, Day, Week, etc.),
helping you understand not just *where* the market traded,
but *how* it traded there.
## The 3 Dimensions of the Market
Unlike standard tools that only show Volume, PVTVP allows you
to switch between three critical metrics:
1. **VOLUME Profile (The "Where"):**
* Shows standard acceptance. High volume nodes (HVN)
are magnets for price.
2. **TIME Profile (The "How Long"):**
* Similar to TPO, it measures how long price spent at each
level.
* **High Time:** True acceptance and fair value.
* **Low Time:** Rejection or rapid movement.
3. **VELOCITY Profile (The "How Fast"):**
* Measures the **speed of trading** (Contracts per Second).
This reveals the hidden intent of market participants.
* **High Velocity (Fast Flow):** Aggression. Initiative
buyers/sellers are hitting market orders rapidly. Often
seen at breakouts or in liquidity vacuums.
* **Low Velocity (Slow Flow):** Absorption. Massive passive
limit orders are slowing price down despite high volume.
Often seen at major reversals ("hitting a brick wall").
## Key Features
1. **Statistical Volume Profile Engine:** For each bar in the selected
period, the indicator builds a complete volume profile on a lower
'Intra-Bar Timeframe'. Instead of simple tick counting, it uses
**statistical models ('PDF' allocation)** to distribute volume
across price levels and **advanced classifiers ('Dynamic' split)**
to determine the buy/sell pressure within that profile.
2. **Flexible Profile Display:** The **finalized profile** (plotted at
the end of each period) can be visualized in three distinct
ways: 'Up/Down' (buy vs. sell), 'Total' (combined volume),
and 'Delta' (net difference).
3. **Developing Key Levels:** The indicator also plots the developing
Point of Control (POC), Value Area (VA), VWAP, and Standard
Deviation bands in real-time as the period unfolds, providing
live insights into the emerging market structure.
4. **Dynamic Row Sizing:** Includes an option ('Rows per Percent')
to automatically adjust the number of profile rows (buckets)
based on the profile's price range, maintaining a consistent
visual density.
5. **Integrated Alerts:** Includes 12 alerts that trigger when the
main price crosses over or under the key developing levels:
POC, VWAP, Value Area High/Low, and the +/- Standard
Deviation bands.
**Caution: Real-Time Data Behavior (Intra-Bar Repainting)**
This indicator uses high-resolution intra-bar data. As a result, the
values on the **current, unclosed bar** (the real-time bar) will
update dynamically as new intra-bar data arrives. This behavior is
normal and necessary for this type of analysis. Signals should only
be considered final **after the main chart bar has closed.**

Auto Fib Retracement-custom lines📈 Auto Fib Retracement (with Custom Line Thickness)
This indicator provides an automatic application of Fibonacci Retracement and Extension levels based on key Pivot points on the chart. It uses advanced logic to identify relevant momentum based on user-defined parameters, ensuring dynamic and accurate level drawing without the need for manual measurement.
Key Features of the Indicator ✨
Automatic Drawing: Fibonacci levels are automatically drawn based on the last significant Pivot swing detected by the indicator.
Fibonacci Retracement and Extension: Displays classic retracement levels (such as 0.382, 0.5, 0.618) and extensions (such as 1.272, 1.618, 2.618, etc.), with the option to individually toggle the visibility of each level.
Custom Line Width (New Feature): This is the key added functionality! For every Fibonacci level, an option has been included to individually adjust the line thickness (width). This allows traders to visually highlight (bold) critical support/resistance levels (like 0, 0.618, 1, etc.) to make them more noticeable on the chart.
Pivot Customization: Control the sensitivity of Pivot detection using the "Deviation" and "Depth" parameters.
Line Extension: Options to extend the Fibonacci lines to the left, right, or both sides.
Detail Display: Ability to show/hide Fibonacci values (levels) and prices on the labels.
⚙️ Input Parameters
This indicator offers complete control over how the Fibonacci levels are displayed:
Deviation: A multiplier that affects how much the price must deviate from the previous pivot for a new pivot to be formed. Increasing the value makes the indicator less sensitive; decreasing it makes it more sensitive.
Depth: The minimum number of bars considered when calculating the pivots.
Reverse: Option to reverse the drawing direction (from top to bottom or vice-versa).
Extend Left/Right: Controls the extension of the Fibonacci lines.
Level Settings (0, 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, etc.):
Checkbox: Turn the display of each individual Fibonacci level on or off.
Value: Customize the Fibonacci value (e.g., you can change 0.618 to 0.65).
Color: Adjust the line color.
Line Width: Crucial option! Allows you to set the line thickness from 1 to 5. Use this to emphasize the most important levels.
Background Transparency: Adjust the transparency of the background fill between the Fibonacci levels.
How to Use It 💡
This tool is ideal for traders who use Fibonacci Retracement to determine potential areas of support and resistance, profit targets (extensions), and entry zones. Use the Custom Line Width option to visually set apart the key levels you believe have the most significant impact on the market (e.g., 0, 0.5, 0.618, and 1).
SRD
SRD v11 - Multi-Timeframe Volume Profile (POC, VAH, VAL)
Key Features
Dual Timeframe Analysis:
📈 Main Analysis (Daily): Calculates and displays the most significant levels based on a user-defined period of daily bars. This is ideal for identifying intraday and short-term trading opportunities.
📊 Strategic Analysis (Weekly): Plots key levels from a weekly perspective, giving you a broader, long-term view of market sentiment and structure. This can be toggled on or off.
Volume Profile Core Levels: The indicator automatically calculates and visualizes the three most important levels derived from volume analysis for both timeframes:
🎯 POC (Point of Control): The price level with the highest traded volume for the specified period. It acts as a powerful magnet for price and a key reference for market equilibrium.
🔴 VAH (Value Area High): The highest price level within the "Value Area" (where ~70% of the volume was traded). It often acts as a significant resistance zone.
🟢 VAL (Value Area Low): The lowest price level within the Value Area. It often serves as a strong support zone.
🟠 24-Hour High: An optional feature that plots the highest price reached in the last 24 hours, providing a crucial reference point for breakout and reversal traders.
Dynamic and Non-Repainting: The levels are calculated based on historical confirmed bars and update automatically as new periods (daily or weekly) close. The lines extend to the right, remaining relevant until a new calculation period begins.
Integrated Alert System: Never miss a key price interaction. The indicator includes a comprehensive alert system for:
Breakouts: Triggers when the price crosses above or below the POC, VAH, or VAL.
Touches: Triggers when the price touches one of these key levels without breaking through it (within a small tolerance).
Unified Alert: A single alert that notifies you of any of the above conditions.
Customization
The SRD v11 is fully customizable to fit your trading style. You can adjust:
Timeframes: Change the base timeframes for both the main (default Daily) and strategic (default Weekly) analysis.
Analysis Periods: Define the number of bars (days or weeks) to include in the Volume Profile calculation.
Visuals: Customize the color, width, and style (solid, dashed, dotted) of every line and label for clear and intuitive visualization.
Toggle Elements: Easily show or hide the strategic (weekly) analysis and the 24-hour high line.
How to Use It >
Identify Key Zones: Use the VAH (resistance) and VAL (support) lines to identify potential entry and exit zones. The area between VAH and VAL is the "Value Area," where the market has found acceptance.
Monitor the POC: The Point of Control is the ultimate level of equilibrium. Watch for price reactions around the POC. A sustained break above or below can signal a new trend.
Combine Timeframes: Use the strategic (weekly) levels as major, long-term points of interest and the main (daily) levels for your day-to-day trading setup. Confluence between levels from different timeframes can indicate extremely strong support or resistance.
Set Alerts: Configure alerts for breakouts or touches to be notified of critical market movements in real-time, even when you are away from the charts.
LevelsLevels is a powerful technical analysis tool that automatically identifies and displays key support and resistance levels on the chart. The indicator analyzes historical price data, detecting significant price levels where multiple reversals or price stops have occurred.
How the Indicator Works?
1. Identification of Reversal Points:
- The indicator tracks price extremes using an algorithm to identify local highs and lows
- A reversal point is recorded when:
- Uptrend: price reaches a new low for the last 10 bars
- Downtrend: price reaches a new high for the last 10 bars
2. Level Grouping:
- All found reversal points are analyzed and grouped into key levels
- Levels are combined if they fall within the specified percentage tolerance
3. Filtering Significant Levels:
- Only levels that have been tested the minimum number of times (set in settings) are preserved
- This ensures only statistically significant levels are displayed
How to Use the Indicator?
Trading Scenarios:
1. Bounce from Level:
- When price approaches an identified level, a bounce can be expected
- Opening positions on the bounce with protective stop-loss beyond the level
2. Level Breakout:
- Breaking through a key level may signal trend continuation
- Support level becomes resistance and vice versa
3. Consolidation near Level:
- Prolonged price presence near a level indicates its significance
- Strong movement can be expected after exiting consolidation
Advantages:
- Automatic level identification eliminates subjectivity
- Sensitivity customization for different timeframes and instruments
- Visual simplicity - only significant levels
Indicator Settings
Main Parameters:
- Show Key Levels - enable/disable level display
- Level Tolerance (%) - percentage tolerance for level grouping
- Smaller values: more levels, more precise
- Larger values: fewer levels, more significant
- Minimum Touches - minimum number of touches to form a level
Visual Settings:
- Level Color - level display color
- Level Style - line style (solid, dashed, dotted)
Limitations
- Levels are built only on available historical data
- Does not account for trading volumes
- Parameter adjustment may be required during high volatility periods
The indicator is particularly effective when combined with other analysis tools for signal confirmation.

───────────────────────────────────────
HOW IT WORKS
───────────────────────────────────────
PSYCHOLOGICAL LEVELS CONCEPT:
Psychological levels are round numbers where traders tend to place orders, creating natural support and resistance zones. These include:
- Forex: 1.0000, 1.0100, 1.0050 (pips)
- Crypto: $100, $1,000, $10,000 (whole numbers)
- Indices: 10,000, 10,500, 11,000 (points)
Why They Matter:
- Traders naturally gravitate to round numbers
- Stop losses cluster at these levels
- Take profit orders concentrate here
- Institutional algorithmic trading often targets these levels
DYNAMIC ATR-BASED SPACING:
Traditional Method:
- Fixed spacing regardless of volatility
- May be too tight in volatile markets
- May be too wide in quiet markets
Dynamic Method (Recommended):
- Uses ATR (Average True Range) to measure volatility
- Automatically adjusts level spacing
- Tighter levels in low volatility
- Wider levels in high volatility
Calculation:
1. Calculate ATR over specified period (default: 14)
2. Multiply by ATR multiplier (default: 2.0)
3. Round to nearest psychological level
4. Generate levels at dynamic intervals
Benefits:
- Adapts to market conditions
- More relevant levels in all volatility regimes
- Reduces clutter in trending markets
- Provides more detail in ranging markets
LEVEL TYPES:
Major Levels (250 pip/point):
- Highest significance
- Primary support/resistance zones
- Color: Red (default)
- Style: Solid lines
- Spacing: 2.5x standard step
Standard Levels (100 pip/point):
- Secondary importance
- Common psychological barriers
- Color: Blue (default)
- Style: Dashed lines
- Spacing: Standard step
Mid Levels (50% between major):
- Optional intermediate levels

Combined Predictive Indicator### Combined Predictive Zones & Levels
This indicator is a powerful hybrid tool designed to provide a comprehensive map of potential future price action. It merges two distinct predictive models into a single, cohesive view, helping traders identify key levels of support, resistance, and areas of high confluence.
#### How It Works: Two Models in One
This script is built on two core components that you can use together or analyze separately:
**Part 1: Classic Range & Fibonacci Prediction**
This model uses classic technical analysis principles to project a potential range for the upcoming price action.
* **Highest High / Lowest Low:** It identifies the significant trading range over a user-defined lookback period.
* **Fibonacci Levels:** It automatically plots key Fibonacci retracement levels (e.g., 38.2% and 61.8%) within this range, which often act as critical support or resistance.
* **ATR & Average Range:** It calculates a "predicted" upper and lower boundary based on the average historical range and current volatility (ATR).
**Part 2: Advanced Predictive Ranges (Self-Adjusting Channels)**
This is a dynamic model that creates adaptive support and resistance zones based on a smoothed average price and volatility.
* **Dynamic Average:** It uses a unique moving average that only adjusts when the price moves significantly, creating a stable baseline.
* **ATR-Based Zones:** It projects multiple levels of support (S1, S2) and resistance (R1, R2) around this average, which widen and narrow based on market volatility. These zones often signal areas where price might stall or reverse.
#### Key Features:
* **Hybrid Model for Confluence:** The true power of this indicator lies in finding where the levels from both models overlap. A Fibonacci level aligning with a Predictive Range support zone is a much stronger signal.
* **Comprehensive Data Table:** A clean, on-chart table displays the precise values of all key predictive levels, allowing for quick reference and precise trade planning.
* **Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Capability:** The Advanced Predictive Ranges can be calculated on a higher timeframe, giving you a broader market context.
* **Fully Customizable:** All lengths, multipliers, and levels for both models are fully adjustable in the settings to fit any asset or trading style.
* **Clear Visuals:** All zones and levels are color-coded for intuitive and easy-to-read analysis.
#### How to Use:
1. Look for areas of **confluence** where multiple levels from both models cluster together. These are high-probability zones for price reactions.
2. Use the Predictive Range zones (S1/S2 and R1/R2) as potential targets for trades or as areas to watch for entries and exits.
3. Pay attention to the on-chart table for exact price levels to set limit orders or stop-losses.
**Disclaimer:** This script is an analytical tool for educational purposes and should not be considered financial advice. All trading involves risk. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always use this indicator as part of a comprehensive trading strategy with proper risk management.

CDP - Counter-Directional-Pivot🎯 CDP - Counter-Directional-Pivot
📊 Overview
The Counter-Directional-Pivot (CDP) indicator calculates five critical price levels based on the previous day's OHLC data, specifically designed for multi-timeframe analysis. Unlike standard pivot points, CDP levels are calculated using a unique formula that identifies potential reversal zones where price action often changes direction.
⚡ What Makes This Script Original
This implementation solves several technical challenges that existing pivot indicators face:
🔄 Multi-Timeframe Consistency: Values remain identical across all timeframes (1m, 5m, 1h, daily) - a common problem with many pivot implementations
🔒 Intraday Stability: Uses advanced value-locking technology to prevent the "stepping" effect that occurs when pivot lines shift during the trading session
💪 Robust Data Handling: Optimized for both liquid and illiquid stocks with enhanced data synchronization
🧮 CDP Calculation Formula
The indicator calculates five key levels using the previous day's High (H), Low (L), and Close (C):
CDP = (H + L + C) ÷ 3 (Central Decision Point)
AH = 2×CDP + H – 2×L (Anchor High - Strong Resistance)
NH = 2×CDP – L (Near High - Moderate Resistance)
AL = 2×CDP – 2×H + L (Anchor Low - Strong Support)
NL = 2×CDP – H (Near Low - Moderate Support)
✨ Key Features

Adaptive Fibonacci Volatility Bands (AFVB)
**Adaptive Fibonacci Volatility Bands (AFVB)**
### **Overview**
The **Adaptive Fibonacci Volatility Bands (AFVB)** indicator enhances standard **Fibonacci retracement levels** by dynamically adjusting them based on market **volatility**. By incorporating **ATR (Average True Range) adjustments**, this indicator refines key **support and resistance zones**, helping traders identify **more reliable entry and exit points**.
**Key Features:**
- **ATR-based adaptive Fibonacci levels** that adjust to changing market volatility.
- **Buy and Sell signals** based on price interactions with dynamic support/resistance.
- **Toggleable confirmation filter** for refining trade signals.
- **Customizable color schemes** and alerts.
---
## **How This Indicator Works**
The **AFVB** operates in three main steps:
### **1️⃣ Detecting Key Fibonacci Levels**
The script calculates **swing highs and swing lows** using a user-defined lookback period. From this, it derives **Fibonacci retracement levels**:
- **0% (High)**
- **23.6%**
- **38.2%**
- **50% (Mid-Level)**
- **61.8%**
- **78.6%**
- **100% (Low)**
### **2️⃣ Adjusting for Market Volatility**
Instead of using **fixed retracement levels**, this indicator incorporates an **ATR-based adjustment**:
- **Resistance levels** shift **upward** based on ATR.
- **Support levels** shift **downward** based on ATR.
- This makes levels more **responsive** to price action.
### **3️⃣ Generating Buy & Sell Signals**
AFVB provides **two types of signals** based on price interactions with key levels:
✔ **Buy Signal**:
Occurs when price **dips below** a support level (78.6% or 100%) and **then closes back above it**.
- **Optionally**, a confirmation buffer can be enabled to require price to close **above an additional threshold** (based on ATR).
✔ **Sell Signal**:
Triggered when price **breaks above a resistance level** (0% or 23.6%) and **then closes below it**.
📌 **Important:**
- The **buy threshold setting** allows traders to **fine-tune** entry conditions.
- Turning this setting **off** generates **more frequent** buy signals.
- Keeping it **on** reduces false signals but may result in **fewer trade opportunities**.
---
## **How to Use This Indicator in Trading**
### 🔹 **Entry Strategy (Buying)**
1️⃣ Look for **buy signals** at the **78.6% or 100% Fibonacci levels**.
2️⃣ Ensure price **closes above** the support level before entering a long trade.
3️⃣ **Enable or disable** the buy threshold filter depending on desired trade strictness.
### 🔹 **Exit Strategy (Selling)**
1️⃣ Watch for **sell signals** at the **0% or 23.6% Fibonacci levels**.
2️⃣ If price **breaks above resistance and then closes below**, consider exiting long positions.
3️⃣ Can be used **alone** or **combined with trend confirmation tools** (e.g., moving averages, RSI).
### 🔹 **Using the Toggleable Buy Threshold**
- **ON**: Buy signal requires **extra confirmation** (reduces false signals but fewer trades).
- **OFF**: Buy triggers as soon as price **closes back above support** (more signals, but may include weaker setups).
---
## **User Inputs**
### **🔧 Customization Options**
- **ATR Length**: Defines the period for **ATR calculation**.
- **Swing Lookback**: Determines how far back to find **swing highs and lows**.
- **ATR Multiplier**: Adjusts the size of **volatility-based modifications**.

Fibonacci Channel Standard Deviation levels based off 200MAThis script dynamically combines Fibonacci levels with the 200-period simple moving average (SMA), offering a powerful tool for identifying high-probability support and resistance zones. By adjusting to the changing 200 SMA, the script remains relevant across different market phases.
Key Features:
Dynamic Fibonacci Levels:
The script automatically calculates Fibonacci retracements and extensions relative to the 200 SMA.
These levels adapt to market trends, offering more relevant zones compared to static Fibonacci tools.
Support and Resistance Zones:
In uptrends, price often respects retracement levels above the 200 SMA (e.g., 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%).
In downtrends, price may interact with retracements and extensions below the 200 SMA (e.g., 23.6%, 1.618).
Customizable Confluence Zones:
Key levels such as the golden pocket (61.8%–65%) are highlighted as high-probability zones for reversals or continuations.
Extensions (e.g., 1.618) can serve as profit targets or bearish continuation points.
Practical Applications:
Identifying Reversal Zones:
Look for confluence between Fibonacci levels and the 200 SMA to identify potential reversal points.
Example: A pullback to the 61.8%–65% golden pocket near the 200 SMA often signals a bullish reversal.
Trend Confirmation:
In uptrends, price respecting Fibonacci retracements above the 200 SMA (e.g., 38.2%, 50%) confirms strength.
Use Fibonacci extensions (e.g., 1.618) as profit targets during strong trends.
Dynamic Risk Management:
Place stop-losses just below key Fibonacci retracement levels near the 200 SMA to minimize risk.
Bearish Scenarios:
Below the 200 SMA, Fibonacci retracements and extensions act as resistance levels and bearish targets.
How to Use:
Volume Confirmation: Watch for volume spikes near Fibonacci levels to confirm support or resistance.
Price Action: Combine with candlestick patterns (e.g., engulfing candles, pin bars) for precise entries.
Trend Indicators: Use in conjunction with shorter moving averages or RSI to confirm market direction.
Example Setup:
Scenario: Price retraces to the 61.8% Fibonacci level while holding above the 200 SMA.
Confirmation: Volume spikes, and a bullish engulfing candle forms.
Action: Enter long with a stop-loss just below the 200 SMA and target extensions like 1.618.
Key Takeaways:
The 200 SMA serves as a reliable long-term trend anchor.
Fibonacci retracements and extensions provide dynamic zones for trade entries, exits, and risk management.
Combining this tool with volume, price action, or other indicators enhances its effectiveness.
Enigma Endgame with Dynamic Trend-Based FibonacciThe Enigma Endgame script combines dynamic trend-based Fibonacci levels with the core principles of the ENIGMA strategy. It provides traders with actionable signals by identifying key levels of fractal support and resistance and highlighting opportunities to trade with market momentum. This tool is designed for multi-timeframe analysis and is especially effective during high-volatility sessions like London and New York.
Purpose and Usefulness
This script was developed to simplify complex market dynamics by integrating Fibonacci principles with ENIGMA's logic of fractal support and resistance. Traders can use it to:
- Identify key breakout and retracement levels dynamically.
- Understand the shift between support and resistance as price action evolves.
- Gain confidence in their entries with real-time signals derived from logical fractal behavior.
By merging Fibonacci levels with fractal-based trading insights, this script offers a unique and comprehensive approach to analyzing market structure.
How It Works
The script uses a dual approach to provide insights:
1. Dynamic Fibonacci Levels:
- Automatically plots Fibonacci retracement and extension levels based on recent high and low swings, adjusting dynamically to current market trends.
- Allows traders to visualize key levels where price might reverse or extend.
2. Fractal Support and Resistance Logic:
- The script identifies fractal support and resistance by analyzing candle formations.
- When a candle body closes below the low of a previous candle, the previous low, which was fractal support, now becomes fractal resistance. The script generates a bearish signal, encouraging traders to look for sell opportunities at or above the previous low.
- Conversely, when a candle body closes above the high of a previous candle, the previous high, which was fractal resistance, becomes fractal support. The script generates a bullish signal, encouraging traders to look for buy opportunities at or below the previous high.
Real-Time Signals
The script marks these transitions with arrows on the chart:
- Bearish arrows indicate broken fractal support turning into resistance.
- Bullish arrows** indicate broken fractal resistance turning into support.
These signals help traders stay aligned with the trend and trade with market momentum.
Key Features
1. Session-Based Analysis: Focuses on high-probability setups by allowing traders to customize session times, such as London or US sessions.
2. Multi-Timeframe Support: Works seamlessly across multiple timeframes for both scalpers and swing traders.
3. Real-Time Alerts: Sends customizable alerts when price interacts with critical Fibonacci levels or fractal support/resistance shifts.
How to Use the Script
1. Apply the script to a clean chart for clear visualization. Avoid combining it with other scripts unless necessary.
2. Use the arrows to identify shifts in fractal support and resistance and validate opportunities for buy/sell trades.
3. Monitor the dynamic Fibonacci levels to find confluence with key price areas.
4. Customize session times to focus on high-probability trading hours.
Key Notes for Traders
- This script provides insights based on logical market structure but should be used alongside proper risk management and trading plans.
- The fractal-based approach works well in conjunction with dynamic Fibonacci levels, helping traders build confidence in their strategy.
- Adapt the script settings to match your unique trading style and timeframe preferences.
By offering a seamless integration of fractal logic and Fibonacci principles, Enigma Endgame empowers traders with actionable insights to navigate markets effectively.

Tomorrow Floor Pivots with CPR By Nifty ZThe colors for resistance and support levels have been updated to gradient reds and greens for clearer distinction.
The CPR band uses light blue and purple to stand out more effectively.
Here's a detailed explanation of the user inputs and the typical use of **Floor Pivots for Tomorrow’s Market Range** in a trading context, focusing on support, resistance, and breakout scenarios:
The script allows traders to customize key parameters for their analysis:
1. Pivot Timeframe:
- Users can select different timeframes for calculating floor pivots, such as 1 hour, 4 hours, daily, weekly, monthly, etc.
- This is crucial because the timeframe selection influences the granularity of the support and resistance levels for the next trading day.
- For instance, selecting a **Daily** timeframe will calculate floor pivots for the next trading day, while selecting **Weekly** will give levels for the upcoming week.
2. Show Floor Pivots:
- Users can toggle the visibility of the calculated **Floor Pivots**, which include resistance levels (R1, R2, R3, R4) and support levels (S1, S2, S3, S4).
3. Show CPR (Central Pivot Range):
- CPR (Central Pivot Range) is a key area where the price tends to consolidate.
- The script allows users to enable or disable the visibility of CPR, which consists of the BC (Bottom Central Pivot) and TC (Top Central Pivot).
4. Show Labels:
- Users can choose whether or not to display labels indicating the **Pivot**, **Support**, and Resistance levels on the chart. This can be helpful for visual analysis when day trading.
Understanding Floor Pivots
The Floor Pivots (Pivot, Resistance, and Support levels) for tomorrow's market range are calculated based on today’s high, low, and close. These levels help traders anticipate how the market may behave in the upcoming session.
1. Pivot:
- The Pivot Point is a central level, calculated as the average of the high, low, and close. It’s considered a reference point that determines the market’s overall bias.
- If the price is trading **above the pivot**, it generally suggests a **bullish** sentiment for the day.
- If the price is trading **below the pivot**, it suggests a **bearish** sentiment.
2. Resistance Levels (R1, R2, R3, R4):
- R1 is often the first area where price may stall in an uptrend. It represents the first major resistance level.
- **R2**, **R3**, and **R4** mark additional levels of resistance, progressively further away from the current price. These are used to project potential upward targets.
- These resistance levels are areas where the price might encounter selling pressure, especially during day trading.
3. **Support Levels (S1, S2, S3, S4):**
- Similarly, **S1** is the first area where the price might find support in a downtrend.
- **S2**, **S3**, and **S4** provide deeper support levels where the price may bounce from.
- These support zones are used by day traders to anticipate where the price might reverse upward.
### **Role of Resistance and Support in Day Trading**
- **Resistance Levels (R1, R2, R3, R4)** indicate potential areas where price could **stall** during an uptrend. These levels are useful for **short-term traders** looking to set exit points or identify reversal zones.
- **Support Levels (S1, S2, S3, S4)** highlight areas where the price could **find support** and potentially **bounce** higher. These levels are particularly helpful for identifying buy zones in a downtrend.
- If a price **breaks out** above the resistance levels or **breaks down** below the support levels, it often signals a strong trend continuation.
### **Understanding the Central Pivot Range (CPR)**
The **CPR** is formed by two key levels:
- **BC (Bottom Central Pivot):** The midpoint of the day’s high and low.
- **TC (Top Central Pivot):** The difference between the pivot and BC.
The CPR acts as a region of **consolidation** or **indecision** where the market is likely to stay within a narrow range. The width of the CPR gives traders a sense of volatility:
- A **narrow CPR** often signals that a **breakout** is imminent.
- A **wider CPR** suggests that the market could remain range-bound.
### **Market Sentiment Based on Floor Pivots**
The relationship between **today’s** and **tomorrow’s pivots** is crucial in determining the market sentiment for the next day.
1. **Bullish Case (Higher Highs):**
- If **tomorrow's pivot** is higher than **today's pivot**, it indicates a **bullish sentiment**. This suggests that the market is likely to trend upward in the next session.
- In a **bullish overlapping pivot range**, if **Day 1 (today)** is higher than **Day 2 (tomorrow)**, traders expect continued upward momentum.
2. **Bearish Case (Lower Lows):**
- Conversely, if **tomorrow's pivot** is lower than **today's pivot**, it suggests a **bearish sentiment** and that the market could trend downward in the next session.
- In a **bearish overlapping pivot range**, if **Day 1 (today)** is lower than **Day 2 (tomorrow)**, traders expect continued downward pressure.
### **Breakout Scenarios**
A breakout occurs when the price **violates either the support or resistance levels** significantly, indicating that the price is moving in the direction of the breakout.
1. **Bullish Breakout:**
- If the price consistently stays **above the CPR** and **resistance levels (R1, R2)**, it indicates a strong **bullish breakout**.
- This is especially true when the **CPR is narrow** for both days, signaling a buildup in price action and a potential breakout to the upside.
2. **Bearish Breakout:**
- If the price breaks **below the CPR** and **support levels (S1, S2)**, it indicates a **bearish breakout**.
- A narrow CPR on **both days** suggests that a breakout to the downside could be imminent.
3. **Neutral or Ranging Days:**
- Sometimes, the CPR stays **unchanged** for 4-5 days, indicating a period of **consolidation** where the price is moving within a tight range. This often leads to a significant breakout once the consolidation ends.
Strategic Application of Floor Pivots for Tomorrow
Traders use floor pivots to plan their next-day trades by:
- **Aligning with Market Sentiment:** Based on whether tomorrow’s pivot is higher or lower than today’s, traders can align their trades in the direction of the market’s overall bias.
- **Identifying Entry and Exit Points:** Resistance and support levels provide well-defined areas to enter or exit trades, making pivots essential for day trading strategies.
- **Anticipating Breakouts:** Monitoring the width of the CPR and the relation between pivots helps traders anticipate potential breakouts, allowing them to react quickly to sudden price movements.
By effectively using these pivots and understanding their significance, traders can improve their decision-making for short-term trades in the stock or futures markets.

Hourly Trading System (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Hourly Trading System (Zeiierman) is designed to enhance your trading by highlighting critical price levels and trends on an hourly basis. This indicator plots the open prices of hourly and 4-hour candles, visualizes retests, displays average price lines, and overlays higher timeframe candlesticks. It is particularly beneficial for intraday traders seeking to capitalize on short-term price movements and volume patterns.
█ How It Works
This indicator works by plotting significant price levels and zones based on hourly and 4-hour candle opens. It also includes functionalities for identifying retests of these levels, calculating and displaying average prices, and showing high and low labels for each hour.
█ Timeframe
The Hourly Trading System is designed to be used on the 1-minute or 5-minute timeframe. This system is tailored for intraday trading, allowing traders to find optimal entries around hourly opening levels and providing an easy method to identify the hourly trend. It works effectively on any market.
█ How to Use
Trend Analysis
Quickly gauge where the current price stands relative to key hourly and 4-hour levels. The plotted lines and zones serve as potential support and resistance areas, helping traders identify crucial points for entry or exit.
Utilize the 1-hour average and higher timeframe candles to understand the overall market trend. Aligning intraday strategies with larger trends can enhance trading decisions.
Use the bar coloring to quickly gauge the 1-hour trend on a lower timeframe. The bar colors indicate whether the hourly trend is bullish (green) or bearish (red), helping traders make quicker decisions in alignment with the overall trend.
Retest Identification
Enable retest signals to see where the price retested the hourly open levels. These retest points often signal strong price reactions, offering opportunities for trades based on support/resistance flips.
One effective strategy to incorporate is looking for price flips when a new hour starts. This approach involves monitoring price action at the beginning of each hour. If the price breaks and retests the hourly open level with strong momentum, it could indicate a potential trend reversal or continuation. This strategy is effective in volatile markets where price movements are significant at the start of each new hour.
Liquidity Sweep Strategy
Another common and effective strategy is the liquidity sweep. This involves identifying key levels where liquidity is likely to accumulate, such as previous hour highs and lows, and observing how the price interacts with these price levels. When the price sweeps through these levels, triggering stop-loss orders or pending orders, it often results in a sharp price movement followed by a reversal. Traders can capitalize on these movements by entering trades in the direction of the reversal once the liquidity sweep has occurred.
Equal Highs and Lows Strategy
The Equal Highs and Lows strategy leverages the concept of identifying levels where the price forms multiple highs or lows at the same level over different hourly periods. These equal highs and lows often indicate strong support or resistance levels where liquidity is accumulated. When the price approaches these levels, it is likely to trigger stop-loss orders and lead to significant price movements. Traders can look for breakouts or reversals around these levels to enter trades with higher probability setups.
█ Settings
Zone Width: Specifies the width of the zone around the 1-Hour Open as a percentage. Adjust this to widen or narrow the zone.
Show Retests: Enables or disables the display of retest markers. Retest markers show where the price has retested the 1-Hour Open line.

h6: The High Overbought level (customizable)
The script defines alert conditions for various signals, including overbought, oversold, high overbought, high oversold, long (crossover between RSI1 and RSI2), and short (crossunder between RSI1 and RSI2).
It sends alerts when these conditions are met, indicating potential trading signals.
Please note that this script is meant for educational purposes and should be used cautiously in a real trading environment. It's important to have a thorough understanding of technical analysis and risk management when using such indicators in actual trading.
ATR LevelsThe indicator calculates and displays key levels based on the Average True Range (ATR) of an asset's price. The ATR is a measure of market volatility, and this indicator uses it to create trigger levels and ATR target levels. The "ATR Levels" indicator helps traders identify potential entry and exit points based on market volatility, providing valuable information for their trading decisions.
The indicator adds text labels to indicate whether the levels are for "Puts" or "Calls" on the trigger levels, and "Target 1" or "Target 2" on the ATR target levels.
Input Description:
ATR Length: This is an input parameter that allows the user to set the number of periods used to calculate the Average True Range (ATR). The ATR measures the market's volatility, and a higher length value will result in a smoother ATR line.
Trigger Percentage: Another input parameter that determines the percentage above and below the previous day's close at which the trigger levels will be plotted. It allows traders to set the sensitivity of the trigger levels.
Lower Trigger Level Color and Upper Trigger Level Color: These input parameters allow the user to customize the colors of the trigger levels. The indicator will plot two lines representing the lower and upper trigger levels.
Level Size: This input parameter allows the user to adjust the thickness of the trigger level lines.
ATR Target Color: An input parameter that sets the color for the ATR target level lines.
ATR Target Multiplier 1 and ATR Target Multiplier 2: These are input parameters that allow the user to set the multiplier for calculating the ATR target levels. The indicator will plot two ATR target lines above and below the previous day's close, each multiplied by the specified multiplier.
Advanced Momentum TrackerThe Advanced Momentum Tracker (AMT) is a technical indicator designed to identify high-probability trend reversals and momentum shifts in real-time. Unlike traditional indicators that rely solely on mathematical formulas, AMT analyzes price action structure and historical patterns to detect when market momentum is shifting from bullish to bearish (and vice versa).
Core Methodology:
The indicator tracks consecutive price movements and maintains a comprehensive database of historical momentum patterns. It identifies trend changes by analyzing:
Sequential candle relationships (opens and closes)
Break of key trailing stop levels formed by recent price action
Historical success rates of similar momentum patterns
Key Features
1. Dynamic Levels:
Automatically plots real-time dynamic trailing stop levels based on current momentum
Color-coded lines: Green for bullish momentum, Red for bearish momentum
These levels act as trigger points for potential trend changes
2. Entry Signal Markers:
Clear BUY (↑) and SELL (↓) arrows when momentum shifts are detected
Arrows positioned above/below candles for maximum visibility ,Signals only appear on confirmed trend changes
3. Momentum Score Display:
Shows statistical probability based on historical pattern analysis
Displays strength percentage of current momentum continuation
Helps traders assess confidence level of the current trend
4. Exit Zone Indicator:
Plots recommended exit levels for active positions
Dynamic color coding: Red for long exits, Green for short exits
Warning system (orange) when price breaches exit zones
5. Position Management Filter:
Optional risk filter to avoid trades with excessive distance from trigger level
Customizable position threshold percentage
Helps maintain consistent risk-reward ratios
6. Comprehensive Alert System:
Customizable alert messages for both long and short signals
Configurable alert frequency (once per bar or once per bar close)
Real-time notifications for all signal types
Customization Options-
Visual Settings:
Toggle visibility of current price level, momentum score, and exit zones
Customizable colors for all elements (bullish/bearish themes)
Adjustable line thickness for dynamic levels
Entry Markers:
Custom colors for long and short entry signals
Adjustable arrow distance from candles
Core Parameters:
Historical Depth: Amount of past data to analyze (default: 20,000 bars)
Sensitivity Level: Controls how strong a move must be to trigger signals (default: 4)
Higher values = fewer but stronger signals
Lower values = more signals with earlier entries
Position Management:
Enable/disable position filter
Set maximum acceptable risk threshold as percentage
How It Works:-
Momentum Detection Engine: The script continuously monitors price action, tracking each bullish and bearish leg. It maintains arrays of opens, closes, and counts to build a comprehensive picture of market structure.
Pattern Recognition: When price breaks key levels (minimum/maximum of recent candles based on sensitivity), the indicator recognizes a potential momentum shift.
Statistical Validation: The script compares the current pattern against its historical database to calculate the probability of momentum continuation.
Signal Generation: When a valid trend change is detected (and passes the position filter if enabled), entry signals are displayed with corresponding exit zones.
Best Use Cases:
Swing trading on any timeframe (works on 1m to 1D charts)
Trend reversal identification
Momentum trading strategies
Works on all markets: Forex, Stocks, Crypto, Indices, Commodities etc
Recommended Settings:
Scalping/Day Trading: Sensitivity 2-3, Historical Depth 10,000-20,000
Swing Trading: Sensitivity 3-4, Historical Depth 20,000-30,000
Position Trading: Sensitivity 4-5, Historical Depth 30,000+
Important Notes:
Signals appear only on confirmed bars (not on real-time candles unless confirmed)
The momentum score becomes more accurate as more historical data is processed
Position filter should be adjusted based on the volatility of the instrument being traded
Best used in conjunction with proper risk management and position sizing
What Makes This Indicator Unique:
Unlike indicators that simply apply mathematical formulas to price data, AMT learns from historical price behavior. It doesn't just tell you what happened—it tells you what's likely to happen next based on thousands of similar situations in the past. The statistical momentum score provides an edge that pure technical indicators cannot offer.
Disclaimer: This indicator is a tool for technical analysis and should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions. Always use proper risk management and combine with your own analysis. Happy Trading !!
