TrendPredator PROThe TrendPredator PRO
Stacey Burke, a seasoned trader and mentor, developed his trading system over the years, drawing insights from influential figures such as George Douglas Taylor, Tony Crabel, Steve Mauro, and Robert Schabacker. His popular system integrates select concepts from these experts into a consistent framework. While powerful, it remains highly discretionary, requiring significant real-time analysis, which can be challenging for novice traders.
The TrendPredator indicators support this approach by automating the essential analysis required to trade the system effectively and incorporating mechanical bias and a multi-timeframe concept. They provide value to traders by significantly reducing the time needed for session preparation, offering all relevant chart analysis and signals for live trading in real-time.
The PRO version offers an advanced pattern identification logic that highlights developing context as well as setups related to the constellation of the signals provided. It provides real-time interpretation of the multi-timeframe analysis table, following an extensive underlying logic with more than 150 different setup variations specifically developed for the system and indicator. These setups are constantly back- and forward-tested and updated according to the results. This version is tailored to traders primarily trading this system and following the related setups in detail.
The former TrendPredator ES version does not provide that option. It is significantly leaner and is designed for traders who want to use the multi-timeframe logic as additional confluence for their trading style. It is very well suited to support many other trading styles, including SMC and ICT.
The Multi-timeframe Master Pattern
Inspired by Taylor’s 3-day cycle and Steve Mauro’s work with “Beat the Market Maker,” Burke’s system views markets as cyclical, driven by the manipulative patterns of market makers. These patterns often trap traders at the extremes of moves above or below significant levels with peak formations, then reverse to utilize their liquidity, initiating the next phase. Breakouts away from these traps often lead to range expansions, as described by Tony Crabel and Robert Schabacker. After multiple consecutive breakouts, especially after the psychological number three, overextension might develop. A break in structure may then lead to reversals or pullbacks. The TrendPredator Indicator and the related multi-timeframe trading system are designed to track these cycles on the daily timeframe and provide signals and trade setups to navigate them.
Bias Logic and Multi-Timeframe Concept
The indicator covers the basic signals of Stacey Burke's system:
- First Red Day (FRD): Bearish break in structure, signalling weak longs in the market.
- First Green Day (FGD): Bullish break in structure signalling weak shorts in the markt.
- Three Days of Longs (3DL): Overextension signalling potential weak longs in the market.
- Three Days of Shorts (3DS): Overextension signalling potential weak shorts in the market.
- Inside Day (ID): Contraction, signalling potential impulsive reversal or range expansion move.
It enhances the original system by introducing:
Structured Bias Logic:
Tracks bias by following how price trades concerning the last previous candle high or low that was hit. For example if the high was hit, we are bullish above and bearish below.
- Bullish state: Breakout (BO), Fakeout Low (FOL)
- Bearish state: Breakdown (BD), Fakeout High (FOH)
Multi-Timeframe Perspective:
- Tracks all signals across H4, H8, D, W, and M timeframes, to look for alignment and follow trends and momentum in a mechanical way.
Developing Context:
- Identifies specific predefined context states based on the monthly, weekly and daily bias.
Developing Setups:
- Identifies specific predefined setups based on context and H8 bias as well as SB signals.
The indicator monitors the bias and signals of the system across all relevant timeframes and automates the related graphical chart analysis as well as context and setup zone identification. In addition to the master pattern, the system helps to identify the higher timeframe situation and follow the moves driven by other timeframe traders to then identify favourable context and setup situations for the trader.
Example: Full Bullish Cycle on the Daily Timeframe with Multi-Timeframe Signals
- The Trap/Peak Formation
The market breaks down from a previous day’s and maybe week’s low—potentially after multiple breakdowns—but fails to move lower and pulls back up to form a peak formation low and closes as a first green day.
MTF Signals: Bullish daily and weekly fakeout low; three consecutive breakdown days (1W Curr FOL, 1D Curr FOL, BO 3S).
Context: Reversal (REV)
Setup: Fakeout low continuation low of day (FOL Cont LOD)
- Pullback and Consolidation
The next day pulls further up after first green day signal, potentially consolidates inside the previous day’s range.
MTF Signals: Fakeout low and first green day closing as an inside day (1D Curr IS, Prev FOL, First G).
Context: Reversal continuation (REV Cont)
Setup: Previous fakeout low continuation low handing fruit (Prev FOL Cont LHF)
- Range Expansion/Trend
The following day breaks up through the previous day’s high, launching a range expansion away from the trap.
MTF Signals: Bullish daily breakout of an inside day (1D Curr BO, Prev IS).
Context: Uptrend healthy (UT)
Setup: Breakout continuation low hanging fruit (BO Cont LHF)
- Overextension
After multiple consecutive breakouts, the market reaches a state of overextension, signalling a possible reversal or pullback.
MTF Signals: Three days of breakout longs (1D Curr BO, Prev BO, BO 3L).
Context: Uptrend extended (UT)
- Reversal
After a breakout of previous days high that fails, price pulls away from the high showing a rollover of momentum across all timeframes and a potential short setup.
MTF Signals: Three days of breakout longs, daily fakeout high (1D 3L, FOH)
Context: Reversal countertrend (REV)
Setup: Fakeout high continuation high of day (FOH Cont HOD)
Note: This is only one possible illustrative scenario; there are many variations and combinations.

Note: The signals shown along the move are manually added illustrations. The indicator shows these in realtime in the table at top and bottom right. This is only one possible scenario; there are many variations and combinations.
Due to the fractal nature of markets, this cycle can be observed across all timeframes. The strongest setups occur when there is multi-timeframe alignment. For example, a peak formation and potential reversal on the daily timeframe have higher probability and follow-through when they align with bearish signals on higher timeframes (e.g., weekly/monthly BD/FOH) and confirmation on lower timeframes (H4/H8 FOH/BD). With this perspective, the system enables the trader to follow the trend and momentum while identifying rollover points in a highly differentiated and precise way.
Using the Indicator for Trading
The automated analysis provided by the indicator can be used for thesis generation in preparation for a session as well as for live trading, leveraging the real-time updates as well as the context and setup indicated or alerted. It is recommended to customize the settings deeply, such as hiding the lower timeframes for thesis generation or the specific alert time window and settings to the specific trading schedule and playbook of the trader.
1. Context Assessment:
Evaluate alignment of higher timeframes (e.g., Month/Week, Week/Day). More alignment → Stronger setups.
- The context table offers an interpretation of the higher timeframe automatically. See below for further details.
2. Setup Identification:
Follow the bias of daily and H8 timeframes. A setup mostly requires alignment of these.
Setup Types:
- Trend Trade: Trade in alignment with the previous day’s trend.
Example: Price above the previous day’s high → Focus on long setups (dBO, H8 FOL) until overextension or reversal signs appear (H8 BO 3L, First R).
- Reversal Trade: Identify reversal setups when lower timeframes show rollovers after higher timeframe weakness.
Example: Price below the previous day’s high → Look for reversal signals at the current high of day (H8 FOH, BO 3L, First R).
- The setup table shows potential setups for the specific price zone in the table automatically. See below for further details.
3. Entry Confirmation:
Confirm entries based on H8 and H4 alignment, candle closes and lower timeframe fakeouts.
- H8 and H4 should always align for a final confirmation, meaning the breach lines should be both in the back of a potential trade setup.
- M15/ 5 candle close can be seen as acceptance beyond a level or within the setup zone.
- M15/5 FOH/ FOL signals lower timeframe traps potentially indicating further confirmation.
Example Chart Reversal Trade:
Context: REV (yellow), Reversal counter trend, Month in FOL with bearish First R, Week in BO but bearishly overextended with BO 3L, Day in Fakeout high reversing bearishly.
Setup: FOH Cont HOD (red), Day in Fakeout high after BO 3L overextension, confirmed by H8 FOH high of day, First R as further confluence. Two star quality and countertrend.
Entry: H4 BD, M15 close below followed by M15 FOH.
Detailed Features and Options
1. Context and Setup table
The Context and Setup Table is the core feature of the TrendPredator PRO indicator. It delivers real-time interpretation of the multi-timeframe analysis based on an extensive underlying logic table with over 150 variations, specifically developed for this system and indicator. This logic is continuously updated and optimized to ensure accuracy and performance.
1.1. Developing Context
States for developing higher timeframe context are determined based on signals from the monthly, weekly, and daily timeframes.
- Green and Red indicate alignment and potentially interesting developing setups.
- Yellow signals a mixed or conflicting bias, suggesting caution when taking trades.
The specific states are:
- UT (yellow): Uptrend extended
- UT (green): Uptrend healthy
- REV (yellow): Reversal day counter trend
- REV (green): Reversal day mixed trend
- REV Cont (green): Reversal continuation mixed trend
- REV Cont (yellow): Reversal continuation counter trend
- REV into UT (green): Reversal day into uptrend
- REV Cont into UT (green): Reversal continuation into uptrend
- UT Pullback (yellow): Counter uptrend breakdown day
- Conflicting (yellow): Conflicting signals
- Consolidating (yellow): Consolidating sideways
- Inside (yellow): Trading inside after an inside week
- DT Pullback (yellow): Counter downtrend breakout day
- REV Cont into DT (red): Reversal continuation into downtrend
- REV into DT (red): Reversal day into downtrend
- REV Cont (yellow): Reversal continuation counter trend
- REV Cont (red): Reversal continuation mixed trend
- REV (red): Reversal day mixed trend
- REV (yellow): Reversal day countertrend
- DT (red): Downtrend healthy
- DT (yellow): Downtrend extended
Example: Uptrend
The Uptrend Context (UT, green) indicates a healthy uptrend with all timeframes aligning bullishly. In this case, the monthly is in a Fakeout Low (FOL) and currently inside the range, while the weekly and daily are both in Breakout (BO) states. This context is favorable for developing long setups in the direction of the trend.
Example: Uptrend pullback
The Uptrend Pullback Context (UT Pullback, yellow) indicates a Breakdown (BD) on the daily timeframe against a higher timeframe uptrend. In this case, the monthly is in a Fakeout Low (FOL) and currently inside its range, the weekly is in Breakout (BO) and also currently inside, while the daily is in Breakdown (BD). This context reflects a conflicting situation—potentially signaling either an early reversal back into the uptrend or, if the breakdown extends, the beginning of a possible trend change.
Example: Reversal into Uptrend
The Reversal into Uptrend Context (REV into UT, green) indicates a lower timeframe reversal aligning with a higher timeframe uptrend. In this case, the monthly is in Breakout (BO), the weekly is in Breakout (BO) and currently inside its range, while the daily is showing a bullish Fakeout Low (FOL) reversal. This context is potentially very favorable for long setups, as it signals a strong continuation of the uptrend supported across multiple timeframes.
Example: Reversal
The Bearish Reversal Context indicates a lower timeframe rollover within an ongoing higher timeframe uptrend. In this case, the monthly remains in Breakout (BO), the weekly has shifted into a Fakeout High (FOH) after three weeks of breakout longs, and the daily is already in Breakdown (BD). This context suggests a potentially favorable developing short setup, as early signs of weakness appear across timeframes.
1.2. Developing Setup
The states for specific setups are based on the context and the signals from the daily timeframe and H8, indicating that price is in the zone of alignment. The setup description refers to the state of the daily timeframe, while the suffix relates to the H8 timeframe. For example, "prev FOH Cont LHF" means that the previous day is in FOH (Fakeout High) relative to yesterday's breakout level, currently trading inside, and we are in an H8 breakdown, indicating a potential LHF (Lower High Formation) short trade if the entry confirms. The suffix HOD means that H8 is in FOH or BO (Breakout).
The specific states are:
- REV HOD (red): Reversal high of day
- REV Cont LHF (red): Reversal continuation low hanging fruit
- BO Cont LHF (green): Breakout continuation low hanging fruit
- BO Cont LOD (green): Breakout continuation low of day
- FOH Cont HOD (red): Fakeout high continuation high of day
- FOH Cont LHF ((red): Fakeout high continuation low hanging fruit
- prev BD Cont HOD (red): Previous breakdown continuation high of day
- prev BD Cont LHF (red): Previous breakdown continuation low hanging fruit
- prev FOH Cont HOD (red): Previous fakeout high continuation high of day
- prev FOH Cont LHF (red): Previous fakeout high continuation low hanging fruit
- prev FOL Cont LOD (green): Previous fakeout low continuation low of day
- prev FOL Cont LHF (green): Previous fakeout low continuation low hanging fruit
- prev BO Cont LOD (green): Previous breakout continuation low of day
- prev BO Cont LHF (green): Previous breakout continuation low hanging fruit
- FOL Cont LHF (green): Fakeout low continuation low hanging fruit
- FOL Cont LOD (green): Fakeout low continuation low of day
- BD Cont LHF (red): BD continuation low hanging fruit
- BD Cont LOD (red): Breakdown continuation low of day
- REV Cont LHF (green): Reversal continuation low hanging fruit
- REV LOD (green): Reversal low of day
- Inside: Trading inside after an inside day
Type: Indicates the situation of the indicated setup concerning:
- Trend: Following higher timeframe trend
- Mixed: Mixed higher timeframe signals
- Counter: Against higher timeframe bias
Quality: Indicates the quality of the indicated setup according to the specified logic table
No star: Very low quality
* One star: Low quality
** Two star: Medium quality
*** Three star: High quality
Example: Breakout Continuation Trend Setup
This setup highlights a healthy uptrend where the month is in a breakout, the week is in a fakeout low, and the day is in a breakout after a first green day. As the H8 breaks out to the upside, a long setup zone is triggered, presenting a breakout continuation low-hanging fruit trade. This is a trend trade in an overextended situation on the H8, with an H8 3L, resulting in an overall quality rating of one star.
Example: Fakeout Low Continuation Trend Setup
This setup shows a reversal into uptrend, with the month in a breakout, the week in a breakout, and the day in a fakeout low after breaking down the previous day and now reversing back up. As H8 breaks out to the upside, a long setup zone is triggered, presenting a previous fakeout low continuation, low-hanging fruit trade. This is a medium-quality trend trade.
Example: Reversal Setup - Mixed Trend
This setup shows a reversal setup in line with the weekly trend, with the month in a fakeout low, the week in a fakeout high, and the day in a fakeout high after breaking out earlier in the day and now reversing back down. As H8 loses the previous breakout level after 3 breakouts (with H8 3L), a short setup zone is triggered, presenting a fakeout high continuation at the high of the day. This is a high-quality trade in a mixed trend situation.
Setup Alerts:
Alerts can be activated for setups freshly triggered on the chart within your trading window.
Detailed filter logic for setup alerts:
- Setup quality: 1-3 star
- Setup type: Counter, Mixed and Trend
- Setup category: e.g. Reversal Bearish, Breakout, Previous Fakeout High
- 1D BO and First signals: 3DS, 3DL, FRD, FGD, ID
Options:
- Alerts on/ off
- Alert time window (from/ to)
- Alert filter customization
Note: To activate alerts from a script in TradingView, some settings need to be adjusted. Open the "Create Alert" dialog and select the option "Any alert() function call" in the "Condition" section. Choose "TrendPredator PRO" to ensure that alerts trigger properly from the code. Alerts can be activated for entire watchlists or individual pairs. Once activated, the alerts run in the background and notify the user whenever a setup is freshly triggered according to the filter settings.
2. Multi-Timeframe Table
Provides a real-time view of system signals, including:
Current Timeframe (Curr): Bias states.
- Breakout (green BO): Bullish after breaking above the previous high.
- Fakeout High (red FOH): Bearish after breaking above the previous high but pulling back down.
- Breakdown (red BD): Bearish after breaking below the previous low.
- Fakeout Low (green FOL): Bullish after breaking below the previous low but pulling back up.
- Inside (IS): Price trading neutral inside the previous range, taking the previous bias (color indicates the previous bias).
Previous Timeframe (Prev): Tracks last candle bias state and transitions dynamically.
- Bias for last candle: BO, FOH, BD, FOL in respective colors.
- Inside bar (yellow IS): Indicated as standalone signal.
Note: Also previous timeframes get constantly updated in real time to track the bias state in relation to the level that was hit. This means a BO can still lose the level and become a FOH, and vice versa, and a BD can still become a FOL, and vice versa. This is critical to see for example if traders that are trapped in that timeframe with a FOH or FOL are released. An inside bar stays fixed, though, since no level was hit in that timeframe.
Breakouts (BO): Breakout count 3 longs and 3 shorts.
- 3 Longs (red 3L): Bearish after three breakouts without hitting a previous low.
- 3 Shorts (green 3S): Bullish after three breakdowns without hitting a previous high.
First Countertrend Close (First): Tracks First Red or Green Day.
- First Green (G): After two consecutive red closes.
- First Red (R): After two consecutive green closes.
Options: Customizable font size and label colors.
3. Historic Highs and Lows
Displays historic highs and lows per timeframe for added context, enabling users to track sequences over time.
Timeframes: H4, H8, D, W, M

Weekly: PWH, PWL, PWC
Monthly: PMH, PML, PMC
Options: Fully customizable for timeframes shown, colors, formats, and labels.
5. Breach Lines
Tracks live market reactions (e.g., breakouts or fakeouts) per timeframe for the last previous high or low that was hit, highlighting these levels originating at the breached candle to indicate bias (color-coded).
Red: Bearish below
Green: Bullish above
H4: 4FOL, 4FOH, 4BO, 4BD
H8: 8FOL, 8FOH, 8BO, 8BD
D: dFOL, dFOH, dBO, dBD

Customize H8 open/close time as an offset to UTC to be provider independent.
Colour settings con be adjusted for dark or bright backgrounds.
Higher Timeframe Use Case Examples
Example Use Case: Weekly Template Analysis
The Weekly Template is a core concept in Stacey Burke’s trading style. The analysis is conducted on the daily timeframe, focusing on the higher timeframe bias and identifying overextended conditions within the week—such as multiple breakouts and peak formations signaling potential reversals.
In this example, the candles are colored by the TrendPredator FO indicator, which highlights the state of individual candles. This allows for precise evaluation of both the trend state and the developing weekly template. It is a valuable tool for thesis generation before a trading session and for backtesting purposes.
Example Use Case: High Timeframe 5-Star Setup Analysis (Stacey Burke "ain't coming back" ACB Template)
This analysis identifies high-probability trade opportunities when daily breakout or breakdown closes occur near key monthly levels mid-week, signaling overextensions and potentially large parabolic moves. The key signal to look for is a breakout or breakdown close on a Wednesday. This is useful for thesis generation before a session and also for backtesting.
In this example, the TrendPredator FO indicator colors the candles to highlight individual candle states, particularly those that close in breakout or breakdown. Additionally, an indicator is shown on the chart shading every Wednesday, making it easier to visually identify the signals.
5 Star Alerts:
Alerts can be activated for this potential 5-Star setup constellation. The alert is triggered when there is a breakout or breakdown close on a Wednesday.
Further recommendations:
- Higher timeframe context: TPO or volume profile indicators can be used to gain an even better overview.
- Late session trading: Entries later in the session, such as during the 3rd hour of the NY session, offer better analysis and follow-through on setups.
- Entry confirmation: Momentum indicators like VWAP, Supertrend, or EMA are helpful for increasing precision. Additionally, tracking lower timeframe fakeouts can provide powerful confluence. To track those the TrendPredator Fakeout Highlighter (FO), that has been specifically developed for this can be of great help:
Limitations:
Data availability using TradingView has its limitations. The indicator leverages only the real-time data available for the specific timeframe being used. This means it cannot access data from timeframes lower than the one displayed on the chart. For example, if you are on a daily chart, it cannot use H8 data. Additionally, on very low timeframes, the historical availability of data might be limited, making higher timeframe signals unreliable.
To address this, the indicator automatically hides the affected columns in these specific situations, preventing false signals.

Frankie Candles Essentials [LuxAlgo]The Frankie Candles Essentials toolkit is a collection of essential features used by trader Frankie Candles. This toolkit focuses on the relationship between MTF oscillator divergences and volume profiles, allowing the detection of different kinds of reversals. Retracements from the "Golden Pocket" features are also included.
🔶 USAGE
When adding the script to your chart you will be prompted to select the calculation interval of the "Top-Down Volume Profile", simply click on your chart where you want the starting and ending points of the calculation interval.
🔹 Top-Down Volume Profile
The Top-Down Volume Profile is a classical fixed-range volume profile and highlights the amount of traded volume within equidistant price areas. The amount of areas is determined by the "Rows" setting (Note that the volume profile can use up to 250 rows).
The value area (VA) highlights the area where the specified percentage of the total volume is traded, that is the area with the most recorded trading activity relative to a selected percentage.
Finally, the point of control (POC) highlights the price level with the most trading activity.
🔹 Divergences
Users can highlight divergences made by oscillators on their charts. The toolkit includes three indicators such as RSI, MFI, and WaveTrend with MTF support, users can also select external oscillators but these will not support MTF divergence detection.
Once the Top-Down Volume Profile is set historical divergences will be affected by its value area (VA), with bearish divergences located above the upper VA or bullish divergences located under the lower VA being highlighted with a sauce can, a signature display stel of Frankie Candles.
Users can also filter out divergences based on the point of control (POC) using the "Filter According To POC" setting, with bearish divergences located below the POC or bullish divergences located above it being filtered out.
Do note that divergences are detected N bars after their occurrence, where N is the divergence lookback setting
🔹 Golden Pockets
The script includes an MTF Golden Pockets feature displaying Fibonacci retracements on the user chart, these can be used to identify optimal trade entries (OTE) or serve as support/resistance levels.
Golden Pockets are based on maximum/minimum prices in a window determined by the "Golden Pocket Lookback" setting, using longer-term lookbacks will return longer-term divergences, this will also be the case when using HTF golden pockets.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Candle Coloring
Candle Coloring: Determine the candle coloring method used by the indicator. "Simple" will color the candles based on the candle body, while "Golden Pocket" will color candles using a gradient based on the golden pocket rolling maximum/minimum.
🔹 Top-Down Volume Profile
Top-Down Volume Profile: Enable Top-Down Volume Profile.

Black Flamingo Trend + contextThe Black Flamingo Trend+Context is an combined display of the two indicators BF Trend and BF Context.
Using this combination, more information can be read by analysis the cross up and down of the trend with the short time or long time context.
Generally, a cross up means that the price is likely to go up, and the opposite for a cross down.
---------------------
The Black Flamingo Trend display on the chart the following components :
- A Trend oscillator that is using price and volume information to inform on changes in trends.
- Overbought and Oversell zones, to rapidly see when the price is making strong moves in price and volume .
- An automatic divergence computation ("D" displayed on the chart) between the oscillator and the price.
- A Multitimeframe Trend oscillator (MTF) that compute the Trend in multiple superior timeframe to have an information of the convergence of the signals. For example, a MTF in oversell zone means that every trend in multiple timeframes are in oversell zone, so a reversal is likely to happens.
Trend oscillator is a new tool that aims to provide information on trend exhaustion or trend changes.
In first, the oscillator is computed using the past prices and volumes. So to make the oscillator stay in overbought and oversell zones, there must be strong movement and volume .
There is several way to use this oscillator in conjonction of the other Black Flamingo indicators :
- When you are confident that the price is in range (looking the Black Flamingo Context), every time the oscillator is in overbought or oversell zone consist in entry time of trade
- When you are confident that the price is in trend (looking the Black Flamingo Context), you have to write a support/resistance line of the oscillator. A reversal signal is done when the support/resistance is breaked and a divergence is printed. The reversal signal can be confirmed by the Black Flamingo Overlay if there is some 3D Breaker targets.
- When there is no visible support or resistance in the oscillator, it likely means that the price is in range.
There is three parameters to configure the Black Flamingo Trend :
- Trend period : That's the number of candle the oscillator is looking to display its value. Use a low period to catch short term entry price, and high period to add more safety on the entry prices.
- Trend multi timeframe factor : That's a factor that decide if higher timeframe impact more the MTF than lower timeframes. Higher means the MTF will display more the higher timeframes
- Trend multi timeframe level : that's the number of superior timeframe that will be summed up when computing the MTF
---------------------
The Black Flamingo Context display on the chart the following components :
- A short term trend analysis line (green)
- A long term trend analysis line (white)
- Two level of confidence to split range from uptrend and downtrend
The trend analysis line is a new tool that aims to provide information on the current price trending status.
Each line (long and short term) print the deviation from a perfect range of the price.
If the value is over the confidence level (yellow zone), the price was considered as trending in short or long term.
If the value is under the confidence level, the price was considered as ranging in short or long term.
There is several ways to analyse these lines :
- When the long term line is trending, if there is a cross-up of the short term line, it means that the trend is accelerating (in parabolic way)
- When the short-term line cross down the long-term line, it means that the trend is exhausting.
- If the two lines are in opposite zone (short term says up-trend and long term says sown-trend), it means that the market is ranging with volatility
- if the short-term line is trending but the long-term line is ranging, it means that a potential counter-trade can be done (the short-term line will very likely return to range zone)
There is one parameter to configure the Black Flamingo Context:
- Context confidence level: That's the standard deviation level to consider if the price is in range or in trade. The standard value of 1.96 means 68% of chance that the price is ranging. 3.92 corresponds to 95% of change and 5.88 to 99.7%

LA - MACD EMA BandsOverview of the "LA - MACD EMA Bands" Indicator
For Better view, use this indicator along with "LA - EMA Bands with MTF Dashboard"
The "LA - MACD EMA Bands" is a custom technical indicator written in Pine Script v6 for TradingView. It builds on the traditional Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) oscillator by incorporating additional smoothing via Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) and Bollinger Bands (BB) applied directly to the MACD line. This creates a multi-layered momentum and volatility tool displayed in a separate pane below the price chart (not overlaid on the price itself).
The indicator allows for customization, such as selecting a different timeframe (for multi-timeframe analysis) and adjusting period lengths. It fetches data from the specified timeframe using request.security with lookahead enabled to avoid repainting issues. The core idea is to provide insights into momentum trends, crossovers, and volatility expansions/contractions in the MACD's behavior, making it suitable for identifying potential trend reversals, continuations, or ranging markets.
Unlike a standard MACD, which focuses primarily on momentum via a single line, signal line, and histogram, this version emphasizes longer-term smoothing and volatility boundaries. It uses visual fills between lines to highlight bullish/bearish conditions, aiding quick interpretation. Below, I'll break down each component, its calculation, visual representation, and practical uses.
Detailed Breakdown of Each Component and Its Uses
MACD Line (Blue Line, Labeled 'MACD Line')
Calculation: This is the core MACD value, computed as the difference between a fast EMA (default length 12) and a slow EMA (default length 144) of the input source (default: close price). The EMAs are calculated on data from the selected timeframe.
Visuals: Plotted as a solid blue line.
Uses:
Measures momentum: When above zero, it indicates bullish momentum (prices rising faster in the short term); below zero, bearish momentum.
Trend identification: Rising MACD suggests strengthening uptrends; falling suggests downtrends.
Divergence spotting: Compare with price action—e.g., if price makes higher highs but MACD makes lower highs, it signals potential bearish reversal (and vice versa for bullish divergence).
In trading: Often used for entry/exit signals when crossing the zero line or other lines in the indicator.
MACD EMA (Red Line, Labeled 'MACD EMA')
Calculation: A 12-period EMA applied to the MACD Line itself.
Visuals: Plotted as a solid red line.
Uses:
Acts as a signal line for the MACD, smoothing out short-term noise.
Crossover signals: When the MACD Line crosses above the MACD EMA, it can signal a bullish buy opportunity; crossing below suggests a bearish sell.
Trend confirmation: Helps filter false signals in choppy markets by requiring confirmation from this slower-moving average.
In trading: Useful for momentum-based strategies, like entering trades on crossovers in alignment with the overall trend.
Fill Between MACD Line and MACD EMA (Green/Red Shaded Area, Titled 'MACD Fill')
Calculation: The area between the MACD Line and MACD EMA is filled with color based on their relative positions.
Color Logic: Green (with 57% transparency) if MACD Line > MACD EMA (bullish); red if MACD Line < MACD EMA (bearish).
Visuals: Semi-transparent fill for easy visibility without overwhelming the lines.
Uses:
Quick visual cue for momentum shifts: Green areas highlight bullish phases; red for bearish.
Enhances readability: Makes crossovers more apparent at a glance, especially in fast-moving markets.
In trading: Can be used to time entries/exits or as a filter (e.g., only take long trades in green zones).
Bollinger Bands on MACD (BB Upper: Black Dotted, BB Basis: Maroon Dotted, BB Lower: Black Dotted)
Calculation: Bollinger Bands applied to the MACD Line.
BB Basis: 144-period EMA of the MACD Line.
BB Standard Deviation: 144-period stdev of the MACD Line.
BB Upper: BB Basis + (2.0 * BB Stdev)
BB Lower: BB Basis - (2.0 * BB Stdev)
Visuals: Upper and lower bands as black dotted lines; basis as maroon dotted
Uses:
Volatility measurement: Bands expand during high momentum volatility (strong trends) and contract during low volatility (ranging or consolidation).
Mean reversion: When MACD Line touches or exceeds the upper band, it may signal overbought conditions (potential sell); lower band for oversold (potential buy).
Squeeze detection: Narrow bands (squeeze) often precede big moves—watch for breakouts.
In trading: Combines momentum with volatility; e.g., a MACD Line breakout above the upper band could confirm a strong uptrend.
BB Basis EMA (Green Line, Labeled 'BB Basis EMA')
Calculation: A 72-period EMA applied to the BB Basis (which is already a 144-period EMA of the MACD Line).
Visuals: Solid green line.
Uses:
Further smoothing: Provides a longer-term view of the MACD's average behavior, reducing noise from the BB Basis.
Trend direction: Acts as a baseline for the BB system—above it suggests bullish bias in momentum volatility; below, bearish.
Crossover with BB Basis: Can signal shifts in volatility trends (e.g., BB Basis crossing above BB Basis EMA indicates increasing bullish volatility).
In trading: Useful for confirming longer-term trends or as a filter for BB-based signals.
Fill Between BB Basis and BB Basis EMA (Gray Shaded Area, Titled 'BB Basis Fill')
Calculation: The area between BB Basis and BB Basis EMA is filled.
Color Logic: Currently set to a constant semi-transparent gray regardless of position.
Visuals: Semi-transparent gray fill.
Uses:
Highlights divergence: Shows when the shorter-term BB Basis deviates from its longer-term EMA, indicating potential volatility shifts.
Visual aid for crossovers: Makes it easier to spot when BB Basis crosses its EMA.
In trading: Could be used to identify overextensions in volatility (e.g., wide gray areas might signal impending mean reversion).
Zero Line (Black Horizontal Line)
Calculation: A simple horizontal line at y=0.
Visuals: Solid black line.
Uses:
Reference point: Divides bullish (above) from bearish (below) territory for all MACD-related lines.
In trading: Crossovers of the zero line by the MACD Line or BB Basis can signal major trend changes.
How It Differs from a Normal MACD
A standard MACD (e.g., the built-in TradingView MACD with defaults 12/26/9) consists of:
MACD Line: EMA(12) - EMA(26).
Signal Line: EMA(MACD Line, 9).
Histogram: MACD Line - Signal Line (bars showing convergence/divergence).
Key differences in "LA - MACD EMA Bands":
Periods: Uses a much longer slow EMA (144 vs. 26), making it more sensitive to long-term trends but less reactive to short-term price action. The MACD EMA is 12 periods (vs. 9), further emphasizing smoothing.
No Histogram: Replaces the histogram with fills and bands for visual emphasis on crossovers and volatility.
Added Bollinger Bands: Applies BB directly to the MACD Line (with a long 144-period basis), introducing volatility analysis absent in standard MACD. This helps detect "squeezes" or expansions in momentum.
Additional EMA Layer: The BB Basis EMA (72-period) adds a secondary smoothing level to the BB system, providing a hierarchical view of momentum (short-term MACD → mid-term BB → long-term EMA).
Multi-Timeframe Support: Built-in option for higher timeframes, unlike basic MACD.
Focus: Standard MACD is purely momentum-focused; this version integrates volatility (via BB) and multi-layer smoothing, making it better for trend-following in volatile markets but potentially overwhelming for beginners.
Overall, this indicator transforms the MACD from a simple oscillator into a comprehensive momentum-volatility hybrid, reducing false signals in trending markets but introducing lag.
Overall Pros and Cons
Pros:
Enhanced Visualization: Fills and bands make trends, crossovers, and volatility easier to spot without needing multiple indicators.
Reduced Noise: Longer periods (144, 72) smooth out whipsaws, ideal for swing or position trading in trending assets like stocks or forex.
Volatility Integration: BB adds a dimension not in standard MACD, helping identify breakouts or consolidations.
Customizable: Inputs for timeframes and lengths allow adaptation to different assets/timeframes.
Multi-Layered Insights: Combines short-term signals (MACD crossovers) with long-term confirmation (BB EMA), improving signal reliability.
Cons:
Lagging Nature: Long periods (e.g., 144) delay signals, missing early entries in fast markets or leading to late exits.
Complexity: Multiple lines and fills can clutter the pane, requiring experience to interpret; beginners might misread it.
Potential Overfitting: Custom periods (12/144/12/144/72) may work well on historical data but underperform in live trading without backtesting.
No Built-in Alerts/Signals: Relies on visual interpretation; users must manually set alerts for crossovers.
Resource Intensive: On lower timeframes or with lookahead, it might slow chart loading on Trading View.
This indicator shines in strategies combining momentum and volatility, like trend-following with BB squeezes, but test it on your assets (e.g., via backtesting) to ensure it fits your style.

Market Sentiment OscillatorMarket Sentiment Oscillator
Overview
The Market Sentiment Oscillator is a Pine Script v6 indicator for TradingView that assesses market context with a composite oscillator. It blends MACD, RSI, and Volume Price Trend (VPT) into a normalized score, with optional multi-timeframe (MTF) averaging and optional trail lines to visualize recent extremes. Weighting and normalization are used to keep the scale consistent across symbols and timeframes. A compact status table summarizes sentiment, trend, and turning-point markers.
How It Works
• Composite score: finalScore = 0.4 · MACD_hist + 0.4 · ((RSI − 50)/50) + 0.2 · VPT_norm. MACD/RSI emphasize momentum; VPT_norm (z-score of a cumulative VPT) adds volume context.
• MTF (optional): The same score is computed on a higher timeframe (default: 1H) and averaged with the chart-TF score for broader context. MTF requests use lookahead_off.
• Neutral buffer: Readings within ±0.2 (default) are treated as neutral to reduce noise.
• Markers: Early turning points are labeled Hypothetical; labels switch to Verified after a fixed bar count.
• Trails (visual only): Lines connect recent extreme highs/lows of the oscillator, with optional dashed previews and short forward extensions for illustration.
Key Features
• Composite Sentiment Score: Structured blend of MACD, RSI, and normalized VPT.
• Multi-Timeframe Context : Optional averaging with a higher timeframe score.
• Visual Trails: Extreme-to-extreme lines and optional previews for context (charting aid).
• Adaptive Coloring: Gradient or solid coloring based on direction and magnitude.
• Turning-Point Markers: Hypothetical and Verified labels for tops/bottoms.
• Status Table: Summarizes sentiment state, trend, and recent turning-point info.
• Customizable: MACD/RSI/VPT inputs, neutral zone, colors, visibility.
What It Displays
A composite, normalized view of momentum and volume context, with optional higher-timeframe blending and visual trails to help interpret shifts between bearish, neutral, and bullish conditions.
Originality
Original Pine v6 implementation using TradingView built-ins: ta.macd, ta.rsi, ta.cum, ta.sma, ta.stdev, ta.pivothigh, ta.pivotlow, and request.security.
Common Uses
• Reviewing momentum context alongside volume influence.
• Illustrating shifts between bearish/neutral/bullish conditions.
• Adding higher-timeframe context to a lower-timeframe view.
Configuration Notes
Set MACD (default 12/26/9), RSI (default 14), and VPT options. Choose a higher timeframe (default 1H) if using MTF. Adjust the neutral zone (default ±0.2), coloring mode, and visibility of trails and table.
Repainting & Limitations
• MTF: Uses lookahead_off to avoid higher-timeframe repainting.
• Pivots/labels: Turning-point pivots are verified only after the required right bars close; “Hypothetical” labels are early and may update intra-bar.

MFx Radar (Money Flow x-Radar)Description:
MFx Radar is a precision-built multi-timeframe analysis tool designed to identify high-probability trend shifts and accumulation/distribution events using a combination of WaveTrend dynamics, normalized money flow, RSI, BBWP, and OBV-based trend biasing.
Multi-Timeframe Trend Scanner
Analyze trend direction across 5 customizable timeframes using WaveTrend logic to produce a clear trend consensus.
Smart Money Flow Detection
Adaptive hybrid money flow combines CMF and MFI, normalized across lookback periods, to pinpoint shifts in accumulation or distribution with high sensitivity.
Event-Based Labels & Alerts
Minimalist "Accum" and "Distr" text labels appear at key inflection points, based on hybrid flow flips — designed to highlight smart money moves without clutter.
Trigger & Pattern Recognition
Built-in logic detects anchor points, trigger confirmations, and rare "Snake Eye" formations directly on WaveTrend, enhancing trade timing accuracy.
Visual Dashboard Table
A real-time table provides score-based insight into signal quality, trend direction, and volume behavior, giving you a full picture at a glance.
MFx Radar helps streamline discretionary and system-based trading decisions by surfacing key confluences across price, volume, and momentum all while staying out of your way visually.
How to Use MFx Radar
MFx Radar is a multi-timeframe market intelligence tool designed to help you spot trend direction, momentum shifts, volume strength, and high-probability trade setups using confluence across price, flow, and timeframes.
Where to find settings To see the full visual setup:
After adding the script, open the Settings gear. Go to the Inputs tab and enable:
Show Trigger Diamonds
Show WT Cross Circles
Show Anchor/Trigger/Snake Eye Labels
Show Table
Show OBV Divergence
Show Multi-TF Confluence
Show Signal Score
Then, go to the Style tab to adjust colors and fills for the wave plots and hybrid money flow. (Use published chart as a reference.)
What the Waves and Colors Mean
Blue WaveTrend (WT1 / WT2). These are the main momentum waves.
WT1 > WT2 = bullish momentum
WT1 < WT2 = bearish momentum
Above zero = bullish bias
Below zero = bearish bias
When WT1 crosses above WT2, it often marks the beginning of a move — these are shown as green trigger diamonds.
VWAP-MACD Line
The yellow fill helps spot volume-based momentum.
Rising = trend acceleration
Use together with BBWP (bollinger band width percentile) and hybrid money flow for confirmation.
Hybrid Money Flow
Combines CMF and MFI, normalized and smoothed.
Green = accumulation
Red = distribution
Transitions are key — especially when price moves up, but money flow stays red (a divergence warning).
This is useful for spotting fakeouts or confirming smart money shifts.
Orange Vertical Highlights
Shows when price is rising, but money flow is still red.
Often a sign of hidden distribution or "exit pump" behavior.
Table Dashboard (Bottom-Right)
BBWP (Volatility Pulse)
When BBWP is low (<20), it signals consolidation — a breakout is likely to follow.
Use this with ADX and WaveTrend position to anticipate directional breakouts.
Trend by ADX
Shows whether the market is trending and in which direction.
Combined with money flow and RSI, this gives strong confirmation on breakouts.
OBV HTF Bias
Gives higher timeframe pressure (bullish/bearish/neutral).
Helps avoid taking counter-trend trades.
Pattern Labels (WT-Based)
A = Anchor Wave — WT hitting oversold
T = Trigger Wave — WT turning back up after anchor
👀 = Snake Eyes — Rare pattern, usually signaling strong reversal potential
These help in timing entries, especially when they align with other signals like BBWP breakouts, confluence, or smart money flow flips.
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Consensus
The system checks WaveTrend on 5 different timeframes and gives:
Color-coded signals on each TF
A final score: “Mostly Up,” “Mostly Down,” or “Mixed”
When MTFs align with wave crosses, BBWP expansion, and hybrid money flow shifts, the probability of sustained move is higher.
Divergence Spotting (Advanced Tip)
Watch for:Price rising while money flow is red → Possible trap / early exit
Price dropping while money flow is green → Early accumulation
Combine this with anchor-trigger patterns and MTF trend support for spotting bottoms or tops early.
Final Tips
Use WT trigger crosses as initial signal. Confirm with money flow direction + color flip
Look at BBWP for breakout timing. Use table as your decision dashboard
Favor trades that align with MTF consensus
X VIBVolume Imbalance Zones
X VIB highlights price-levels where buying or selling pressure overwhelmed the opposing side within a single bar transition, leaving a void that the market often revisits. The script paints those voids as boxes so you can quickly see where liquidity may rest, where price may pause or react, and which imbalances persist across sessions.
What it plots
For each completed calculation bar (your chart’s timeframe or a higher timeframe you choose), the indicator draws a box that spans the prior bar’s close to the current bar’s open—only when that bar-to-bar transition exhibits a valid volume imbalance (VIB) by the selected rules. Boxes are time-anchored from the previous bar’s time to the current bar’s time close, and they are capped to a configurable count so the chart remains readable.
Two ways to define “Volume Imbalance”
X VIB calculates imbalances in two complementary ways. Both techniques isolate bar-to-bar displacement that reflects one-sided pressure, but they differ in strictness and how much confirmation they require.
Continuity VIB (Bar-to-Bar Displacement)
A strict definition that requires aligned progress and overlap between consecutive bars. In practical terms, a bullish continuity VIB demands that the new bar advances beyond the prior bar’s close, opens above it, and maintains upward progress without erasing the displacement; the bearish case mirrors this to the downside.
Use when: you want the cleanest, most structurally reliable voids that reflect decisive initiative flow.
Effect on boxes: typically fewer, higher-quality zones that mark locations of strong one-sided intent.
Gap-Qualified VIB (Displacement with Gap Confirmation)
A confirmatory definition that treats the bar-to-bar displacement as an imbalance only if the transition also observes a protective “gap-like” relationship with surrounding prices. This extra condition filters out many borderline transitions and emphasizes voids that were less likely to be traded through on their formation.
Use when: you want additional confirmation that the void had genuine follow-through pressure at birth.
Effect on boxes: often slightly fewer but “stickier” zones that can attract price on retests.
Both modes are drawn identically on the chart (as boxes spanning the displacement). Their difference is purely in the qualification of what counts as a VIB. You can display either set independently or together to compare how each mode surfaces structure.
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) logic
You can compute imbalances on a higher timeframe (e.g., 15-minute) while viewing a lower timeframe chart. When MTF is active, X VIB:
Samples open, high, low, close, time, and time_close from the selected HTF in a single, synchronized request (no gaps, no lookahead).
Only evaluates and draws boxes once per HTF bar close, ensuring clean, stable zones that don’t repaint intra-bar.
How traders use these zones
Reversion into voids: Price often returns to “fill” part of a void before deciding on continuation or reversal.
Context for entries/exits: VIB boxes provide precise, mechanically derived levels for limit entries, scale-outs, and invalidation points.
Confluence: Combine with session opens, HTF levels, or volatility bands to grade setups. Continuity VIBs can mark impulse anchors; Gap-Qualified VIBs often mark stickier pockets.
Inputs & controls
Calculate on higher timeframe? Toggle MTF computation; choose your Calc timeframe (e.g., 15).
Show VIBs: Master toggle for drawing imbalance boxes.
Color & Opacity: Pick the box fill and border intensity that suits your theme.
# Instances: Cap how many historical boxes remain on the chart to avoid clutter.
Notes & best practices
Signal density: Continuity VIBs tend to be more frequent on fast charts; Gap-Qualified VIBs are more selective. Try both and keep what aligns with your trade plan.
MTF discipline: When using a higher calc timeframe, analyze reactions primarily at that timeframe’s pace to avoid over-fitting to noise.
Lifecycle awareness: Not all voids fill. Track which boxes persist; durable voids often define the map of the session.
Trend Pro V2 [CRYPTIK1]Introduction: What is Trend Pro V2?
Welcome to Trend Pro V2! This analysis tool give you at-a-glance understanding of the market's direction. In a noisy market, the single most important factor is the dominant trend. Trend Pro V2 filters out this noise by focusing on one core principle: trading with the primary momentum.
Instead of cluttering your chart with confusing signals, this indicator provides a clean, visual representation of the trend, helping you make more confident and informed trading decisions.
The dashboard provides a simple, color-coded view of the trend across multiple timeframes.
The Core Concept: The Power of Confluence
The strength of any trading decision comes from confluence—when multiple factors align. Trend Pro V2 is built on this idea. It uses a long-term moving average (200-period EMA by default) to define the primary trend on your current chart and then pulls in data from three higher timeframes to confirm whether the broader market agrees.
When your current timeframe and the higher timeframes are all aligned, you have a state of "confluence," which represents a higher-probability environment for trend-following trades.
Key Features
1. The Dynamic Trend MA:
The main moving average on your chart acts as your primary guide. Its color dynamically changes to give you an instant read on the market.
Teal MA: The price is in a confirmed uptrend (trading above the MA).
Pink MA: The price is in a confirmed downtrend (trading below the MA).
The moving average changes color to instantly show you if the trend is bullish (teal) or bearish (pink).
2. The Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Trend Dashboard:
Located discreetly in the bottom-right corner, this dashboard is your window into the broader market sentiment. It shows you the trend status on three customizable higher timeframes.
Teal Box: The trend is UP on that timeframe.
Pink Box: The trend is DOWN on that timeframe.
Gray Box: The price is neutral or at the MA on that timeframe.
How to Use Trend Pro V2: A Simple Framework
Step 1: Identify the Primary Trend
Look at the color of the MA on your chart. This is your starting point. If it's teal, you should generally be looking for long opportunities. If it's pink, you should be looking for short opportunities.
Step 2: Check for Confluence
Glance at the MTF Trend Dashboard.
Strong Confluence (High-Probability): If your main chart shows an uptrend (Teal MA) and the dashboard shows all teal boxes, the market is in a strong, unified uptrend. This is a high-probability environment to be a buyer on dips.
Weak or No Confluence (Caution Zone): If your main chart shows an uptrend, but the dashboard shows pink or gray boxes, it signals disagreement among the timeframes. This is a sign of market indecision and a lower-probability environment. It's often best to wait for alignment.
Here, the daily trend is down, but the MTF dashboard shows the weekly trend is still up—a classic sign of weak confluence and a reason for caution.
Best Practices & Settings
Timeframe Synergy: For best results, use Trend Pro on a lower timeframe and set your dashboard to higher timeframes. For example, if you trade on the 1-hour chart, set your MTF dashboard to the 4-hour, 1-day, and 1-week.
Use as a Confirmation Tool: Trend Pro V2 is designed as a foundational layer for your analysis. First, confirm the trend, then use your preferred entry method (e.g., support/resistance, chart patterns) to time your trade.
This is a tool for the community, so feel free to explore the open-source code, adapt it, and build upon it. Happy trading!

📊 WHAT IS THIS INDICATOR?
The Multi Timeframe Fair Value Gap Indicator Pro is the most advanced FVG detection system on TradingView, designed to identify high-probability institutional supply and demand zones across multiple timeframes simultaneously. This professional-grade tool automatically detects Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), also known as imbalance zones, liquidity voids, or inefficiency gaps - the exact areas where institutional traders enter and exit positions.
🔍 What Are Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)?
Fair Value Gaps are three-candle price formations that create imbalances in the market structure. These gaps represent areas where buying or selling was so aggressive that price moved too quickly, leaving behind an inefficient zone that price often returns to "fill" or "mitigate." Professional traders use these zones as high-probability entry points.

Supertrend + MACD with Advanced FiltersDetailed Guide
1. Indicator Overview
Purpose:
This enhanced indicator combines Supertrend and MACD to signal potential trend changes. In addition, it now includes several extra filters for more reliable signals:
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Confirmation: Checks a higher timeframe’s trend.
ADX (Momentum) Filter: Ensures the market is trending strongly.
Dynamic Factor Adjustment: Adapts the Supertrend sensitivity to current volatility.
Volume Filter: Verifies that current volume is above average.
Each filter can be enabled or disabled according to your preference.
How It Works:
The Supertrend calculates dynamic support/resistance levels based on ATR and an adjustable factor, while MACD identifies momentum shifts via its crossovers. The additional filters then confirm whether the conditions meet your criteria for a trend change. If all enabled filters align, the indicator plots a shape and triggers an alert.
2. Supertrend Component with Dynamic Factor
Base Factor & ATR Period:
The Supertrend uses these inputs to compute its dynamic bands.
Dynamic Factor Toggle:
When enabled, the factor is adjusted by comparing the current ATR to its simple moving average. This makes the indicator adapt to higher or lower volatility conditions, helping to reduce false signals.
3. MACD Component
Parameters:
Standard MACD settings (Fast MA, Slow MA, Signal Smoothing) determine the responsiveness of the MACD line. Crossovers between the MACD line and its signal line indicate potential trend reversals.
4. Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Filter
Function:
If enabled, the indicator uses a higher timeframe’s simple moving average (SMA) to confirm the prevailing trend.
Bullish Confirmation: The current close is above the higher timeframe SMA.
Bearish Confirmation: The current close is below the higher timeframe SMA.
5. ADX Filter (Momentum)
Custom Calculation:
Since the built-in ta.adx function may not be available, a custom ADX is calculated. This involves:
Determining positive and negative directional movements (DMs).
Smoothing these values to obtain +DI and -DI.
Calculating the DX and then smoothing it to yield the ADX.
Threshold:
Only signals where the ADX exceeds the set threshold (default 20) are considered valid, ensuring that the market is trending strongly enough.
6. Volume Filter
Function:
Checks if the current volume exceeds the average volume (SMA) multiplied by a specified factor. This helps confirm that a price move is supported by sufficient trading activity.
7. Combined Signal Logic & Alerts
Final Signal:
A bullish signal is generated when:
MACD shows a bullish crossover,
Supertrend indicates an uptrend,
And all enabled filters (MTF, ADX, volume) confirm the signal.
The bearish signal is generated similarly in the opposite direction.
Alerts:
Alert conditions are set so that TradingView can notify you via pop-up, email, or SMS when these combined conditions are met.
8. User Adjustments
Toggle Filters:
Use the on/off switches for MTF, ADX, and Volume filters as needed.
Parameter Tuning:
Adjust the ATR period, base factor, higher timeframe settings, ADX period/threshold, and volume multiplier to match your trading style and market conditions.
Backtesting:
Always backtest your settings to ensure that they perform well with your strategy.

Model Indicator |ASE|The purpose of this indicator is to allow the user to build their own model. Each feature works cohesively together and depending on the filters you enable, the model gives less and more specific entries. This benefits the trader because they have complete control over the kinds of trades they want to take, while maintaining its automatic form.

Benefits & Examples:
In the image below the indicator signaled multiple entries based on two simple confluence filters, a MS reversal (CHoCH/MSS) and a Liquidity Raid. Going from left to right we can see a short entry at the highs with a supporting Order Block. Liquidity levels are taken before we see a double IDM right below the respected OB that leads to the next signaled entry. In the middle of the chart we see a long entry that leads right into a short entry showing the effectiveness of such a simple model.
In this supporting image we are showcasing the first implementation of the Trade Overlay feature. This feature displays the Entry and Stop Loss to make it more visible and adds a risk to reward target. Additionally displayed is the SMC Toolkit indicator showing us additional confirmation with our signaled entries playing right out of a higher timeframe FVG.
An additional entry feature is the MTF zone. Setups can form on all timeframes and subjecting yourself to only one may lead you to miss out on some perfect setups or a larger move. In the image below we are on the 1 minute timeframe. We can see the Initial Reversal Entry which played out beautifully and filled a higher timeframe SFVG. With the MTF zone we can see a 3 minute and 5 minute Zone which produces the rest of the trend reaching another higher timeframe SFVG after filling the previous one. Once again showing the benefit of the Toolkit indicator but the plotted entries from such a simple model.
In addition to the model indicators filtered out entry zone, we can use additional confluences to confirm these entries. In the image below we can see a short entry printed after a move out of the Std. Dev. vwap wave which shows over extension. Taking the entry we can have a tight stop loss at the vwap wave or the recent high where we have a liquidity level, targeting a lower liquidity level or higher timeframe FVG.
For this example we are only filtering based on MS Reversals (CHoCH/MSS) to get our entries. Because of this we need additional confirmation to be confident in taking the plotted entry. In the image below you can see a long signal printed, confirmation being the previous Failed Reversal.

Tell me if you have some ideas or criticism about that sricpt
>>>>>>>>>> This is a modified Version of Peter_O's Momentum Based ZigZag <<<<<<<<<<<
This is only a test, and i want to share it with the community
It works like other ZigZags
Because Peters_O's original Version is only non repaint on closed historical Data ,
during a Candle building process it can still repaint (signal appears / 21 seconds later signal disapears / 42 seconds later signal appears again in the same candle / etc.),
but that isnt important for backtesting, its only important for realtime PivotPoints during a candle.
My goal for this zigzag was to make it absolute non repaint neither during a candle building process (current candle),
so once the signal is shown there is no chance that it disapers and shown a few seconds later again on that same candle, it can only show up one time per candle an thats it,
and that makes it absolute non repaint in all time frames.
Credits to:
==> Thanks to @glaz , for bringing the QQE to Tradingview <3
==> Thanks to @Peter_O , for sharing his idea to use the QQE as base for a Zigzag
and for sharing his MTF RSI with the Community <3
Changes:
- I changed the MTF RSI a little bit, you can choose between two version
- I changed the QQE a little bit, its now using the MTF RSI , and its using High and Low values as Source to make it absolute non repaint during a candle is building
- I added a little Divergence Calculation beween price and the MTF RSI that is used for the ZigZag
Colors :
- Green for HH / HL Continuation
- Red for LL / LH Continuation
- Yellow for Positive Divergence
- Purple for Negative Divergence
Important:
It is not possible to backtest this script correctly with historical Data, its only possible in Realtime,
because the QQE is using crossunders with RSILowSource and the QQE Line to find the Tops and,
because the QQE is using crossovers with RSIHighSource and the QQE Line to find the Bottoms,
and that means it is not possible to find the correct Time/Moment when that crossovers / crossunders happens in historical Data
=============> So please be sure you understand the Calculation and Backtest it in Realtime when you want to use it,
because i didn't published this script for real trading
=============> Im not a financial advisor and youre using this script at your own risk
=============> Please do your own research
