Quantitative Qualitative Estimation (QQE)The indicator QQE, is an interesting tool based on a Relative Strength Index (RSI). While the original RSI is often used as a pointer for overbought or oversold market phases, the QQE provides additional information. Use the QQE to display trend direction and trend strength . For me this is one of the most important indicator for Trend Following. ##This QQE indicator is an improved version made by 'mladen' for Metatrader 4. The histogram does not differ from the original QQE! The developer has adapted the scaling so that the central horizontal level is zero. It has no effect to the result, but is much more convenient to analyze the trend. Main Signals Background changes when the black line crosses the grey line. Identify the trend direction Singal turns green while the main QQE trendline is above the zero line and red while it is below. This works best in the major timeframes like Daily or Weekly. You can activate this signal in the settings. NYSE:THO Identify the trend strength _Histogram Colors_ Green (above 10): bullish Red (below -10): bearish Yellow: flat It is not a buy or sell signal when the color of the histogram changes. It only says that one side could gained the advantage. If you use a large timeframe like Monthly, you can reduce the number of false signal by setting the SF (Slow Factor) from 5 (default) to 1. S&P 500, Monthly Please always remember, there is no holy grail indicator! ...but this one defines trends quite accurately.

Institutional MF-Vol Compression Scanner v4.0 [BIG]═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ BIG COMPRESSION SCANNER v4.0 ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ OVERVIEW The BIG Compression Scanner v4.0 is a proprietary volatility regime detection system designed for systematic Daily options deployment. This framework identifies pre-expansion volatility compression zones through multi-dimensional market structure analysis, combining institutional positioning patterns with hierarchical timeframe confirmation and options market structure to generate high-conviction directional signals for premium strategies. The methodology synthesizes volatility dynamics, liquidity flow patterns, and cross-timeframe regime alignment into a probabilistic scoring system that isolates asymmetric risk-reward setups characteristic of compression-to-expansion transitions. The framework is calibrated specifically for 30-45 DTE options strategies where timing precision and volatility environment assessment are critical to edge generation. ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ CORE METHODOLOGY ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ • Proprietary Compression Detection The system employs a multi-factor compression identification framework that monitors volatility regime transitions across price dispersion metrics and range contraction patterns. Unlike single-indicator squeeze systems, this methodology uses weighted ensemble logic to distinguish true pre-expansion compression from random consolidation noise. Compression strength is quantified through a proprietary scoring algorithm (0-100%) that evaluates: - Statistical volatility contraction relative to historical norms - Price range compression within dynamic envelope systems - Institutional volume signature analysis during low-volatility periods - Cross-timeframe compression alignment (Daily/Weekly/Monthly hierarchy) The framework filters compression events based on minimum strength thresholds and multi-bar confirmation to eliminate premature signals characteristic of retail squeeze indicators. • Hierarchical Multi-Timeframe Architecture The indicator integrates a three-tier temporal analysis structure where higher timeframes constrain and validate lower timeframe signals: Strategic Layer (Monthly) – Establishes macro directional bias and identifies structural market positioning. This layer determines whether intermediate trends align with or counter dominant regime dynamics. Structural Layer (Weekly) – Provides tactical context through key price levels, momentum assessment, and volatility regime confirmation. Weekly analysis filters signals that would occur in unfavorable proximity to structural inflection zones. Execution Layer (Daily) – Generates precise entry timing through intraday regime shift detection, momentum confluence analysis, and institutional flow pattern recognition. Each layer contributes weighted influence to the composite directional probability model, with recalibration logic that adjusts timeframe importance based on current market regime characteristics. The exact weighting algorithm is proprietary and adapts to volatility environment dynamics. • Options Market Structure Integration Version 4.0 incorporates options-specific market intelligence not available in standard technical analysis frameworks: Volatility Environment Assessment – The system continuously monitors implied volatility regime characteristics through proprietary estimation models. These models identify whether current premium levels favor buying or selling strategies, adjusting signal generation accordingly. Temporal Decay Awareness – Built-in expiration cycle logic ensures signals only trigger when sufficient time value remains for thesis development. The framework approximates days-to-expiration and applies minimum threshold filters to prevent entries in high theta decay regimes. Greeks-Aware Targeting – Price targets are dynamically calibrated based on volatility expansion expectations and estimated leverage characteristics. Target multipliers adjust to current options market structure rather than using fixed risk-reward ratios. Premium Environment Classification – Signals are enhanced with real-time assessment of whether current volatility levels favor long premium, short premium, or spread strategies based on historical percentile analysis. • Probabilistic Directional Scoring System Rather than binary bullish/bearish classification, the framework generates probability-weighted directional bias through a proprietary multi-factor model. This model synthesizes trend alignment metrics, momentum characteristics, structural positioning, and institutional flow signatures into normalized probability distributions. The scoring system evaluates dozens of market structure variables across multiple timeframes, applies regime-dependent weighting, and produces directional probabilities that reflect actual edge rather than arbitrary technical indicator thresholds. Signal generation occurs only when directional probability exceeds user-defined conviction thresholds (55-65% depending on sensitivity setting). This probabilistic approach allows traders to calibrate position sizing and strategy selection (outright vs. spreads) to the strength of directional conviction rather than treating all signals as equal weight. • Institutional Flow Detection The framework monitors volume and price interaction patterns characteristic of institutional accumulation or distribution during compression phases. This analysis identifies whether compression zones contain building directional positions (high probability of sustained move post-breakout) versus thin, choppy consolidation (high false breakout risk). Flow detection employs proprietary algorithms that distinguish genuine institutional activity from retail volume spikes, providing critical context for signal validation. ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ SIGNAL ARCHITECTURE ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ Call Option Signals trigger when compression strength, directional probability, timeframe alignment, options market structure, and institutional flow patterns simultaneously satisfy proprietary threshold criteria. Signals are filtered against weekly structural levels to avoid low-probability entries near major resistance zones. Put Option Signals follow equivalent logic with inverse directional parameters, ensuring symmetrical framework application across bull and bear setups. All signals include: - Directional conviction probability (percentage) - Current volatility environment assessment (IV Rank proxy) - Dynamic price target based on expansion expectations - Multi-timeframe alignment status Signal cooldown logic prevents excessive signal generation during extended consolidation periods, maintaining signal quality over quantity. ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ VISUAL INTELLIGENCE ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ Real-Time Multi-Timeframe Dashboard The top-right panel provides continuous visibility into: - Trend alignment across Daily/Weekly/Monthly timeframes - Current compression status at each temporal layer - Momentum regime characteristics (RSI values) - Options environment assessment (IV Rank, optimal strategy) - Composite signal readiness (compression strength percentage) This dashboard enables rapid regime assessment without manual multi-timeframe chart analysis. Chart Integration Visual overlays include: - Volatility envelope systems (dynamic bands) - Weekly structural price levels (pivot, resistance, support) - Compression zone highlighting (background shading) - Active squeeze indicators (Daily and Weekly differentiation) Signal Labels When setups trigger, comprehensive labels display: 📈 CALL OPTION Prob: XX% IV Rank: XX% Target: $XXX.XX Labels provide all critical execution information without requiring dashboard consultation. ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ KEY CAPABILITIES ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ - Proprietary multi-factor compression detection with adaptive thresholds - Hierarchical multi-timeframe confirmation (Daily/Weekly/Monthly) - Options-specific filters (IV regime, DTE requirements, Greeks awareness) - Probabilistic directional scoring (0-100% conviction levels) - Institutional flow pattern recognition during compression - Weekly structural level integration with proximity filters - Dynamic target calibration based on volatility expansion expectations - Real-time multi-timeframe regime dashboard - Customizable sensitivity and threshold parameters - Non-repainting signal architecture (bar close confirmation) - Comprehensive alert system for proactive monitoring ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ APPLICATION GUIDELINES ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ 1. Timeframe Selection Apply to Daily (D1) charts only. Framework calibration is timeframe-specific; other intervals produce suboptimal results. 2. Options Mode Activation Enable Options Trading Mode for premium strategy optimization. This activates IV filtering, DTE thresholds, and Greeks-aware targeting. 3. Strategy Calibration - Premium Buying: Set IV threshold to 50th percentile, DTE minimum 30+ days, target multiplier 2.5-3.0× - Premium Selling: Set IV threshold to 70th+ percentile, DTE minimum 20-30 days, target multiplier 1.5-2.0× 4. MTF Dashboard Monitoring Verify multi-timeframe alignment before execution: - Ideal setup: Daily + Weekly compression both active - Confirm trend alignment across timeframes - Check IV Rank for premium environment assessment - Wait for "READY" status (green) indicating threshold satisfaction 5. Signal Execution When labels appear: - Review directional probability (target >65% for high conviction) - Assess IV environment (low IV favors buying, high IV favors selling) - Use price target for strike selection and profit objectives - Consider 30-45 DTE options for thesis development time 6. Risk Management - Position size: 2-5% options capital per signal - Stop loss: Exit if compression breaks opposite direction without follow-through - Time stop: Reassess if position stagnant after 5-7 days - Profit taking: Scale out at provided targets or weekly pivot levels 7. Sensitivity Adjustment - High (55%): More signals, lower conviction, diversified approach - Medium (60%): Balanced, default setting (2-4 signals/month typical) - Low (65%): Fewer signals, higher conviction, concentrated positions ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ FRAMEWORK LIMITATIONS ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ - Optimized exclusively for Daily timeframe analysis - Compression development requires patience (2-4 weeks typical) - IV metrics are proprietary proxies, not direct exchange data - Greeks estimations approximate actual options contract characteristics - DTE calculations simplified vs. precise monthly expiration dates - Multi-timeframe filtering reduces but cannot eliminate false breakouts - Requires liquid options markets (tight spreads, adequate open interest) - Not designed for earnings-driven volatility events (IV crush risk) - Framework identifies timing, not specific strike or expiration selection ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ - Pine Script v5 architecture - Non-repainting signal confirmation (bar close validation) - Multi-security data integration (Weekly/Monthly via request.security) - Real-time multi-timeframe analysis dashboard - 4 alert conditions (Call/Put options, directional generic) - Fully customizable parameters (compression, scoring, filters, visuals) - Professional-grade visual hierarchy and information density ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ PROFESSIONAL CONTEXT ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ This framework is designed for systematic options traders with working knowledge of: - Volatility regime dynamics and expansion/contraction cycles - Options Greeks and their impact on P&L across various market conditions - Implied Volatility Rank interpretation and premium pricing assessment - Multi-timeframe analysis methodology and trend hierarchy - Risk-adjusted position sizing and portfolio construction principles The system identifies when market structure favors options deployment but does not prescribe how to construct positions. Strike selection, expiration choice, spread architecture, and position sizing require independent trader judgment based on account parameters and risk tolerance. Optimal deployment combines this framework with: - Options analytics platform (actual IV, Greeks, probability calculations) - Earnings calendar awareness (pre-earnings IV inflation vs. post-earnings crush) - Broader market regime context (VIX, correlation, sector rotation) - Portfolio-level risk management (concentration limits, correlation analysis) ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ Proprietary compression-to-expansion framework for systematic Daily options deployment.

TGIF Dynamic Tracker [NINE Θ]Overview A professional-grade indicator for tracking weekly price ranges and identifying high-probability retracement zones based on the TGIF (Thank God It's Friday) concept from ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodology. What is the TGIF Concept? The TGIF concept is based on the observation that price tends to retrace a significant portion of the weekly range toward the end of the trading week — typically on Thursday evening or Friday. This phenomenon occurs as institutional traders take profits and rebalance positions before the weekend, creating predictable retracement patterns. By identifying the weekly high and low, traders can anticipate specific retracement levels where price is likely to find support or resistance. The most commonly referenced retracement zone is the 20-30% level, representing a shallow pullback from the week's extreme before potential continuation. Features In Depth Weekly High/Low Tracking The foundation of the TGIF strategy is accurately tracking the current week's price extremes. Automatic Detection: The indicator continuously monitors price action and updates the weekly high and low in real-time. As new extremes are made, all dependent calculations (retracement zones, percentage levels) update automatically. Smart Session Timing: The indicator automatically detects your market type and adjusts accordingly: Stocks/ETFs: Week begins Monday at 9:30 AM ET (market open) Forex/Crypto/Futures: Week begins Sunday at 6:00 PM ET (18:00) This ensures accurate weekly range calculations regardless of which market you're trading. Visual Customization: Enable/disable weekly high and low lines independently Choose line color, style (solid, dashed, dotted), and thickness Lines extend from week start to current bar Percentage Level Lines Individual horizontal lines mark key retracement percentages within the weekly range. Available Levels: 20% — Shallow retracement, first potential support/resistance 30% — Edge of the primary TGIF zone 50% — Mid-range equilibrium point 60% — Beginning of deeper retracement territory 80% — Deep retracement zone 90% — Near-complete retracement Independent Controls: Each level can be toggled on or off individually, allowing you to display only the levels relevant to your trading strategy. All levels share common styling settings for a clean, consistent appearance. Dynamic Bias Adjustment: Levels automatically adjust based on the current weekly bias: Bullish Bias (new weekly high made): Levels measure DOWN from the high Bearish Bias (new weekly low made): Levels measure UP from the low This ensures retracement zones always point toward the direction of potential pullback. Retracement Zones Highlighted zones visually emphasize the most significant retracement areas. Three Configurable Zones: 20-30% Zone (Primary TGIF Zone) This is the classic TGIF retracement area. When price makes a weekly high or low, traders anticipate a pullback to this zone before potential continuation. This shallow retracement often provides optimal risk/reward entries in the direction of the weekly trend. 50-60% Zone (Equilibrium Zone) Represents a balanced pullback to the middle of the weekly range. Price reaching this zone suggests a more significant retracement is underway. This area often acts as a decision point — price either finds support/resistance here or continues toward deeper retracement levels. 80-90% Zone (Deep Retracement Zone) Indicates a near-complete retracement of the weekly range. Price reaching this zone suggests the original weekly move may be fully reversing. Traders watch for reversal signals here or prepare for a potential range expansion in the opposite direction. Zone Display Options: Each zone can be enabled/disabled independently Customizable background colors with transparency control Zones only appear during the retracement period (starting Thursday/Friday) Midlines: Optional center lines within each zone (25%, 55%, 85%) provide additional precision points. These midlines often act as the "sweet spot" within each retracement band. Time-Based Markers Vertical lines help you identify important session boundaries and timing. Daily Session Lines: Mark the start of each trading day with vertical lines extending through the weekly range. Stocks: 9:30 AM ET (NYSE/NASDAQ open) Forex/Crypto/Futures: 6:00 PM ET (18:00 — New York session close/new day start) Control how many historical session lines remain visible (1-5) to avoid chart clutter while maintaining useful reference points. Weekly Start Lines: A distinct vertical line marks the beginning of each trading week, providing clear visual separation between weeks and helping you identify the starting point for weekly range calculations. Retracement Start Lines: Mark when the TGIF retracement period begins — this is when you should start watching for pullbacks to the retracement zones. Stocks: Friday 9:30 AM ET (Friday market open) Forex/Crypto/Futures: Thursday 6:00 PM ET (18:00) Historical Weeks View retracement data from previous weeks to identify recurring patterns and validate the TGIF concept on your chosen instrument. Historical Tracking: Display up to 20 previous weeks of data Each historical week shows its own high/low lines, retracement zones, and time markers Helps identify how consistently the instrument respects TGIF levels What's Displayed: Weekly high and low boundaries All enabled retracement zones with midlines Weekly start and retracement start lines Optional labels for historical levels Historical Labels: Toggle labels on historical weeks independently. Disable them to reduce clutter while keeping the visual reference lines. Use Cases: Backtest TGIF setups visually on your chart Identify instruments that respect TGIF levels consistently Study how deep retracements typically go on your chosen market Labels & Display Modes Comprehensive labeling options for quick reference. Label Display Modes: Levels: Shows only the level name (e.g., "HIGH", "20%", "50%") Price: Shows only the price value Both: Shows level name and price (e.g., "20% | 1.2345") Label Positioning: Labels appear to the right of the current bar, staying visible as price action develops. Tooltips: When using "Levels" display mode, hover over any label to see the exact price in the tooltip. Label Customization: Text size: Tiny, Small, Normal, Large, Huge Text color selection Labels use monospace font for clean alignment Info Table An optional real-time summary table showing all current levels and their distance from price. Table Contents: Current day indicator (MON, TUE, WED, THU, FRI) All six percentage levels (20%, 30%, 50%, 60%, 80%, 90%) Exact price for each level Distance from current price to each level Adaptive Theming: The table automatically detects your chart's background color (light or dark) and adjusts text and border colors for optimal readability. Display Settings: 9 position options (corners, edges, and center) Size options: Tiny, Small, Normal, Large Practical Use: Quickly identify which level is nearest to current price without visually scanning the chart. The distance column helps assess how far price needs to travel to reach key zones. Smart Market Detection The indicator automatically identifies your market type and adjusts all timing calculations. Detected Market Types: Stocks & ETFs: Week starts: Monday 9:30 AM ET Daily sessions: 9:30 AM ET Retracement period begins: Friday 9:30 AM ET Standard equity market hours apply Forex & Crypto: Week starts: Sunday 6:00 PM ET (18:00) Daily sessions: 6:00 PM ET (18:00) Retracement period begins: Thursday 6:00 PM ET (18:00) 24-hour market timing with New York session rollover Futures Contracts: Automatically detected via common futures symbols (ES, NQ, YM, RTY, CL, GC, etc.) Uses forex-style timing (18:00 ET rollover) Handles continuous contracts and front-month symbols This automatic detection ensures you get accurate weekly ranges without manual configuration. Bias Tracking The indicator dynamically tracks weekly directional bias to orient retracement calculations correctly. How Bias is Determined: When price makes a new weekly high, bias shifts to BULLISH When price makes a new weekly low, bias shifts to BEARISH Bias can change multiple times throughout the week as new extremes are made Why Bias Matters: Retracement levels are calculated from the appropriate extreme based on current bias: Bullish bias: Levels measure DOWN from the weekly high (anticipating pullback from high) Bearish bias: Levels measure UP from the weekly low (anticipating pullback from low) This ensures the 20-30% zone always represents a shallow retracement in the context of the current weekly direction. Tips Best Results on Trending Weeks: TGIF works best when there's a clear weekly direction. Choppy, range-bound weeks may not produce clean retracements. Combine with Other Confluence: TGIF levels are most powerful when they align with other technical factors — Fair Value Gaps, order blocks, previous week highs/lows, or key support/resistance levels. Use Historical Data: Enable historical weeks to see how your instrument typically respects TGIF levels. Some instruments are more "TGIF-friendly" than others. Midlines as Precision Points: The midlines (25%, 55%, 85%) often act as the exact reversal point within each zone. Watch for reactions specifically at these levels. Friday Afternoon Caution: Late Friday sessions can be thin and choppy. Consider taking profits or reducing position sizes heading into the weekend. Requirements Intraday Timeframes Only: This indicator requires timeframes of 1 hour or less for accurate session and weekly boundary detection. Sufficient Historical Data: When using the Historical Weeks feature, ensure your chart has enough bars loaded to display the requested number of weeks. Session-Based Markets: Optimized for markets with distinct sessions. Continuous 24/7 markets may show different characteristics.

Macros+AMD [NW]Macros + AMD - Daily & Weekly Time-Based Analysis Multi-timeframe AMD (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution) visualization with ICT Macro timing windows for time-based market analysis. Overview This indicator visualizes the AMD (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution) framework on both daily and weekly timeframes, combined with ICT Macro timing windows. It is designed as an educational tool to help traders study time-based market structure and algorithmic price delivery concepts. The AMD model is based on the idea that markets move through distinct phases within each trading period: Accumulation (A) - Initial range formation, liquidity building Manipulation (M) - False moves to trap traders, liquidity sweeps Distribution (D) - True directional move, price delivery to targets What This Indicator Displays Daily AMD Phases Displays the intraday AMD cycle based on New York trading hours: A Phase (Blue): 4:00 AM - 8:35 AM EST — Morning accumulation, Asian/London overlap M Phase (Red): 8:35 AM - 11:25 AM EST — NY session manipulation, news events D Phase (Green): 11:25 AM - 4:00 PM EST — Afternoon distribution and price delivery Weekly AMD Phases Displays the weekly AMD cycle from Monday to Monday: A Phase: Monday 00:00 - Tuesday 21:56 EST — Weekly high/low formation begins M Phase: Tuesday 21:56 - Thursday 02:04 EST — Mid-week reversal zone D Phase: Thursday 02:04 - Monday 00:00 EST — Weekly price delivery Inner M Phase Fibs When enabled, subdivides the M (Manipulation) phase using Fibonacci levels: 0.382 level — Inner accumulation ends 0.500 level — Mid-point of manipulation 0.618 level — Inner distribution begins This helps identify potential reversal points within the manipulation phase. ICT Macro Windows Horizontal lines marking the XX:42 to XX:15 macro periods (33-minute windows): 2:42 - 3:15 AM 3:42 - 4:15 AM (London) 7:42 - 8:15 AM 8:42 - 9:15 AM 9:42 - 10:15 AM (Prime AM session) 10:42 - 11:15 AM 11:42 - 12:15 PM 12:42 - 1:15 PM 1:42 - 2:15 PM 2:42 - 3:15 PM These windows represent times when algorithmic price delivery is more likely to occur. How To Use Understanding the AMD Framework During the A Phase: Observe range formation and initial liquidity pools Note the high and low established during this phase Wait for manipulation before committing to direction During the M Phase: Watch for false breakouts and stop hunts Look for reversal patterns after liquidity sweeps The inner fibs (0.382, 0.5, 0.618) can help time entries within this phase Mid-week (Wednesday) often sees key reversals on weekly AMD During the D Phase: This is typically when the true move occurs Price tends to deliver toward draw on liquidity targets The direction is often opposite to the manipulation move Using the Macro Windows The XX:42 to XX:15 windows are times to pay attention to price action: These 33-minute periods often see increased algorithmic activity Look for displacement, fair value gaps, or order blocks forming The 9:42-10:15 AM window is considered particularly significant for NY session Weekly Day Labels Monday/Tuesday: "H/L of Week" — Watch for weekly high or low formation Wednesday: "Reversal Day" — Mid-week reversal probability increases Thursday/Friday: "Reversal Day" — Continuation or secondary reversal Settings Guide Main Settings Timezone: Set to your broker's timezone or preferred timezone Macros On Top: Toggle macro lines above or below AMD boxes Show All Text Labels: Master toggle for all text (turn off for clean charts on HTF) Daily/Weekly AMD Show: Enable/disable the AMD visualization Opacity: Adjust transparency of the phase boxes (higher = more transparent) AMD Colors Customize colors for each phase (A, M, D) Default: Blue (A), Red (M), Green (D) Inner M Style Customize the inner M phase fib lines and text colors Default: Black lines for clean visibility Macro Settings Adjust macro line color and thickness Toggle individual macro windows on/off Important Notes This indicator is for educational purposes and time-based analysis It does not provide buy/sell signals Always use in conjunction with proper price action analysis Past price behavior during these time windows does not guarantee future results The AMD framework is one lens for viewing market structure — use it as part of a complete methodology Credits This indicator is based on concepts taught by ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and the broader Smart Money Concepts community. The AMD framework, macro timing windows, and weekly profile concepts are derived from this educational methodology.

Inversion Fair Value Gap Model [PJ Trades]GENERAL OVERVIEW: The Inversion Fair Value Gap Model indicator is a complete rule-based system designed to identify trade setups using the Inversion Fair Value Gap strategy taught by PJ Trades. It automates the strategy’s workflow by detecting liquidity sweeps, confirming V-shape recoveries, identifying valid Inversion Fair Value Gaps, validating higher-timeframe Fair Value Gap taps, and checking for a clear opposite Draw On Liquidity. These factors are evaluated together to produce a signal rating of A, A+, or A++, based on how many of these criteria the setup satisfies. When a long or short setup is confirmed, the indicator automatically plots an entry, stop-loss, break-even, and two take-profit levels. A dashboard that updates in real-time displays the current directional bias, liquidity sweep activity, Inversion Fair Value Gap confirmation state, V Shape Recovery state, higher-timeframe Fair Value Gap context, opposite Draw on Liquidity, SMT divergence, and other key information relevant to the trading model. The indicator also includes optional trade statistics on the dashboard that tracks the recent win rates for A, A+, and A++ setups, as well as separate long and short win rates. This indicator was developed by Flux Charts, in collaboration with PJ Trades. What is the theory behind the indicator?: The Inversion Fair Value Gap model is built on the idea that when the market pushes above a high or below a low, it often does so to sweep liquidity. If that move quickly fails and price reverses, it shows the sweep was a grab for orders and not a continuation. That quick rejection is the V Shape Recovery behavior. An Inversion Fair Value Gap forms when a Fair Value Gap that once supported the original move gets invalidated afterward. That invalidation confirms the shift in direction and becomes the new reference point for trades. The Inversion Fair Value Gap model uses this sequence because it highlights when the market has taken liquidity, rejected continuation, and started delivering in the opposite direction. INVERSION FAIR VALUE GAP MODEL FEATURES: The Inversion Fair Value Gap Model indicator includes 15 main features: Sessions Key Levels & Swing Levels Liquidity Levels Liquidity Sweeps V Shape Recoveries Higher-Timeframe Fair Value Gaps Inversion Fair Value Gaps Macros Bias Signals New Day Opening Gap New Week Opening Gap SMT Divergences Dashboard Alerts SESSIONS: The Inversion Fair Value Gap Model indicator includes five trading sessions (times in EST): Asia: 20:00 - 00:00 London: 02:00 - 05:00 NY AM: 09:30 - 12:15 NY Lunch: 12:15 - 13:30 NY PM: 13:30 - 16:00 Session highs and lows are automatically tracked and used within the indicator’s signal logic. 🔹Session Zones: Each session has a zone that outlines its active time window. These zones can be toggled on or off independently. When active, they visually separate each part of the trading day. Users can adjust the color and opacity of each session box. Users can also enable session labels, which place a label above each session zone showing its corresponding session name. 🔹Session Time: Users can toggle on ‘Time’ which will display each session’s time window next to its session title. 🔹Session Highs/Lows: Every session can display its own high and low as horizontal lines. Users can customize the line style for session highs/lows, choosing between solid, dashed, or dotted. The color of the lines will match the same color used for the session box. Users can adjust the color of the labels as well, which is applied to all session high/low labels. When price has moved above a session high, or below a session low, the label will not be displayed anymore. 🔹Extend Levels: When enabled, each session’s high and low levels can be extended forward by a set number of bars. Please Note: Disabling a session under the main Sessions section only hides its visuals (boxes, lines, or labels). It does not impact signal detection or logic. KEY LEVELS: The Inversion Fair Value Gap Model indicator includes 11 key market levels that outline important structural price areas across daily, weekly, and monthly timeframes. These levels include the Daily Open, Previous Day High/Low, Weekly Open, Previous Week High/Low, Monthly Open, Previous Month High/Low, Midnight Open, and 08:30 Open. The levels can be enabled or disabled and customized in color and line style. All of the levels except the Midnight Open and 08:30 Open are used for the indicator’s signal logic. 🔹Daily Open The Daily Open marks where the current trading day began. 🔹Previous Day High/Low The Previous Day High (PDH) marks the highest price reached during the previous regular trading session. It shows where buyers pushed price to its highest point before the market closed. The Previous Day Low (PDL) marks the lowest price reached during the previous regular trading session. It shows where selling pressure reached its lowest point before buyers stepped in. When price pushes above the PDH or below the PDL, the level is removed from the chart. 🔹Weekly Open The Weekly Open marks the first price of the current trading week. 🔹Previous Week High/Low The Previous Week High (PWH) marks the highest price reached during the previous trading week. It shows where buying pressure reached its peak before the weekly close. The Previous Week Low (PWL) marks the lowest price reached during the previous trading week. It shows where sellers pushed price to its lowest point before buyers regained control. When price pushes above the PWH or below the PWL, the level is removed from the chart. 🔹Monthly Open The Monthly Open marks the opening price of the current month. 🔹Previous Month High/Low The Previous Month High (PMH) marks the highest price reached during the previous calendar month. It represents the point at which buyers achieved the strongest push before the monthly close. The Previous Month Low (PML) marks the lowest price reached during the previous calendar month. It shows where selling pressure was strongest before buyers stepped back in. When price pushes above the PMH or below the PML, the level is removed from the chart. 🔹Midnight Open The Midnight Open marks the first price of the trading day at 00:00 EST. 🔹08:30 Open The 08:30 Open marks the opening price at 08:30 EST. 🔹Customization Options: Users can fully customize the appearance of all key levels, including the following: Labels Label Size Line Style Line Colors Labels: Users can toggle on ‘Show Labels’ to display labels for each toggled-on level that price hasn’t pushed above/below. Users can also adjust the size of labels, choosing between auto, tiny, small, normal, large, or huge. Line Style: Users can select a line style, choosing between solid, dashed, or dotted, which is applied to all toggled-on key levels. Line Color: Users can choose different colors for each of the following key levels: Daily Open, Previous Day High, Previous Day Low Weekly Open, Previous Week High, Previous Week Low, Monthly Open, Previous Month High, Previous Month Low Midnight Open 08:30 Open 🔹Extend Levels: When enabled, each key level is extended forward by a set number of bars. Please Note: Disabling a level in the “Key Levels” section only hides its visuals and does not affect the indicator’s signals. 🔹Swing Levels The indicator automatically plots Swing Highs and Swing Lows which are used in the indicator’s signal generation logic. A swing high forms when a candle’s high is greater than the highs of the bars immediately before and after it. A swing low forms when a candle’s low is lower than the lows of the bars immediately before and after it. 🔹Swing Level Colors Users can customize the color of Active Levels and Swept Levels. Active Levels are levels that price has not pushed above or below Swept Levels are levels that price pushed above or below. 🔹Swing Levels – Show Nearest This setting determines how many swing highs/lows are displayed on the chart. The indicator will display the nearest X highs to price and the nearest X lows to price. For example, if ‘Show Nearest’ is set to 2, the nearest 2 swing highs and nearest 2 swing lows to price will be plotted on the chart. LIQUIDITY LEVELS: The Inversion Fair Value Gap Model indicator automatically identifies and plots liquidity at key structural points in the market. These include swing highs and swing lows, session highs and lows, and major higher timeframe reference points as explained in the SESSIONS and KEY LEVELS sections above. All of these areas are treated as potential pools of resting orders and are used throughout the indicator’s signal logic. 🔹What is Buyside Liquidity?: Buyside Liquidity (BSL) represents price levels where many buy stop orders are sitting, usually from traders holding short positions. When price moves into these areas, those stop-loss orders get triggered and short sellers are forced to buy back their positions. These zones often form above key highs such as the previous day, week, or month. Understanding BSL is important because when price reaches these levels, the sudden wave of buy orders can create sharp reactions or reversals as liquidity is taken from the market. 🔹What is Sellside Liquidity?: Sellside Liquidity (SSL) represents price levels where many sell stop orders are waiting, usually from traders holding long positions. When price drops into these areas, those stop-loss orders are triggered and long traders are forced to sell their positions. These zones often form below key lows such as the previous day, week, or month. Understanding SSL is important because when price reaches these levels, the surge of sell orders can cause sharp reactions or reversals as liquidity is taken from the market. 🔹 Which Liquidity Levels Are Used The indicator tracks liquidity at the following areas: Asia Session High/Low London High/Low NY AM High/Low NY Lunch High/Low NY PM High/Low Previous Day High and Low Previous Week High and Low Previous Month High and Low Daily Open Weekly Open Monthly Open Swing Highs/Lows 🔹 How Liquidity Levels Are Used All tracked levels across sessions, swing points, and higher timeframes serve as potential liquidity targets. When price trades above one of these highs, the indicator looks for short setups if other confluences align. When price trades below lows, the indicator looks for long setups if other confluences align. LIQUIDITY SWEEPS: The indicator automatically detects Buyside Liquidity and Sellside Liquidity sweeps using the liquidity levels mentioned in the previous section. 🔹What is a Liquidity Sweep? Liquidity sweeps occur when price trades beyond a key high or low and activates resting buy-stop or sell-stop orders in that area. It’s how the market gathers the liquidity needed for larger participants to enter positions. Traders often place stop-loss orders around obvious highs and lows, such as the previous day’s, week’s, or month’s levels. When price pushes through one of these areas, it triggers the stops placed there and generates a burst of volume. This can lead to quick movements in price as those orders are executed. 🔹Sellside Liquidity Sweep These occur when price dips below a Sellside Liquidity (SSL) level, taking out the stop-loss orders placed by long traders below that low. When this happens, the indicator records the sweep and begins monitoring for potential long setups as the next step in the IFVG trading strategy. Long trades are only eligible after a SSL sweep. 🔹Buyside Liquidity Sweep These occur when price dips above a Buyside Liquidity (BSL) level, taking out the stop-loss orders placed by short seller traders above that high. When this happens, the indicator records the sweep and begins monitoring for potential short setups as the next step in the trading strategy. Short trades are only eligible after a BSL sweep. 🔹How to Use Liquidity Sweeps Liquidity sweeps are not direct trade signals. They are best used as context when forming a directional bias. A sweep shows that the market has removed liquidity from one side, which can hint at where the next move may develop. For example: When BSL is swept, it often signals that buy stops have been triggered and the market may be preparing to move lower. Traders may then begin looking for short opportunities. When SSL is swept, it often signals that sell stops have been triggered and the market may be preparing to move higher. Traders may then begin looking for long opportunities. V SHAPE RECOVERIES: 🔹 What Is a V Shape Recovery? A V shape recovery is a sharp, immediate reversal that happens right after price sweeps BSL or SSL. It indicates that price quickly moved back in the opposite direction after trading through the level. This behavior signals a shift in momentum and is a required confirmation in the indicator for signal generation. The indicator will not look for long trades after a SSL sweep unless a V shape recovery occurs. It will not look for short trades after a BSL sweep unless a V shape recovery occurs. Without this behavior, the indicator assumes that price may still be delivering in the direction of the sweep, so no valid setups can form. 🔹 Why V Shape Recoveries Matter V shape recoveries help confirm that the liquidity the sweep did not immediately continue in the same direction. They separate false breaks from true continuation. A sweep without recovery often means price may keep trending, so the indicator does not generate signals in those cases. A sweep with a V shape recovery confirms rejection and sets the foundation for valid Inversion Fair Value Gap formation. This makes the V shape recovery one of the most important sequence steps in the Inversion Fair Value Gap Model. 🔹 How the Indicator Detects V Shape Recoveries V shape recoveries can be visually intuitive when looking at a chart, but they are difficult to define consistently programmatically. To ensure reliable and repeatable detection, the indicator uses a rules-based method that evaluates candle size, candle direction, and the strength of the move immediately following the liquidity sweep. This approach removes subjectivity and allows the indicator to confirm V shape behavior the same way every time. The indicator does not plot any visual elements specifically for V shape recoveries. Instead, the presence of a V shape recovery is implied through the signals themselves. Every valid long or short signal that appears after a liquidity sweep requires a confirmed V shape recovery. This means that if a signal is generated following a sweep, a V shape recovery has occurred. 🔹 V Shape Recovery After a Sellside Sweep (SSL Sweep) After price trades below a sellside liquidity level, long positions are liquidated. If buyers quickly step in and force price upward with strong momentum, this forms a V shape recovery. This signals that the sweep below the low was rejected and that buyers have reclaimed control. When this occurs, the indicator begins monitoring for long setups. 🔹 V Shape Recovery After a Buyside Sweep (BSL Sweep) After price pushes above a buyside liquidity level, many short positions are stopped out. If sellers immediately step in and drive price back down with strong movement, this forms a V shape recovery. This behavior reflects a quick change in candle direction immediately following the sweep. When this occurs, the indicator begins monitoring for short setups. 🔹Failed V Shape Recoveries These examples show failed V shape recoveries, where price did not reverse decisively after the BSL or SSL sweep. The lack of strong response from buyers or sellers indicates that momentum did not shift. Thus, the indicator will not detect valid long/short setups using these liquidity sweeps. HIGHER-TIMEFRAME FAIR VALUE GAPS: Higher-timeframe Fair Value Gaps (HTF FVGs) provide important context in the Inversion Fair Value Gap Model because they show where significant imbalance occurred on larger market structures. The indicator automatically detects HTF FVGs and uses them as part of the signal rating system. 🔹 What Is a Fair Value Gap? A Fair Value Gap (FVG) is an area where the market’s perception of fair value suddenly changes. On your chart, it appears as a three-candle pattern: a large candle in the middle, with smaller candles on each side that don’t fully overlap it. A bullish FVG forms when a bullish candle is between two smaller bullish/bearish candles, where the first and third candles’ wicks don’t overlap each other at all. A bearish FVG forms when a bearish candle is between two smaller bullish/bearish candles, where the first and third candles’ wicks don’t overlap each other at all. This creates an imbalance because price moved so quickly that one side of the auction did not trade. Examples: 🔹 What Makes an FVG “Higher-Timeframe”? In this indicator, HTF FVGs are Fair Value Gaps detected on timeframes higher than the chart’s current timeframe. For example, on a 5-minute chart, a 1-hour FVG would be considered a HTF FVG. The indicator automatically plots and checks whether price interacts with these HTF FVGs during a liquidity sweep and incorporates this into the signal rating (A, A+, A++). 🔹 How the Indicator Uses Higher-Timeframe FVGs The indicator automatically scans up to three user-selected higher timeframes for valid bullish and bearish FVGs and tracks price’s behavior around them in the background. When any of these higher timeframes are enabled, their FVGs are used directly within the signal logic. During a liquidity sweep, the indicator checks whether price taps into any enabled HTF FVG. A tap occurs when price trades inside the boundaries of a higher-timeframe FVG during or immediately after the sweep. A bullish HTF FVG tap during a sellside sweep supports a long setup. A bearish HTF FVG tap during a buyside sweep supports a short setup. When an HTF FVG tap aligns with the direction of the setup, the signal’s rating is increased. This can increase a setup’s rating from A to A+ or from A+ to A++. 🔹 Higher-Timeframe FVG Customization Users can select up to three higher timeframes for HTF FVG detection. When a higher timeframe is enabled, its FVGs are used in the model’s signal logic. Users can also choose whether to display these HTF FVGs visually on the chart, by enabling the ‘Plot HTF FVGs’ setting. Each enabled HTF FVG can be customized with the following options: Bullish and Bearish Colors: Users can set different fill colors for bullish and bearish HTF FVGs for each selected timeframe. Midline: When enabled, a midline is drawn through the center of each HTF FVG. Users can customize the midline’s line style, choosing between solid, dashed, or dotted and also customize the midline’s color. Labels: When enabled, each plotted HTF FVG displays a label that shows its originating timeframe (for example, 1H, 4H). Plot HTF FVGs: When disabled, the HTF FVG zones are hidden from the chart while the logic remains active in the background for signals. Show Nearest: This setting controls how many HTF FVGs are displayed based on proximity to current price. Users can choose to show the nearest X bullish HTF FVGs and the nearest X bearish HTF FVGs. This filter is applied across all enabled higher timeframes and does not limit by timeframe individually. 🔹When are Higher Timeframe Fair Value Gaps mitigated? A Higher Timeframe Fair Value Gap is considered mitigated when a candle from the chart’s timeframe closes above the gap for a bearish FVG or below the gap for a bullish FVG. INVERSION FAIR VALUE GAPS: Inversion Fair Value Gaps (IFVGs) are a core requirement of the Inversion Fair Value Gap Model. Every long and short signal generated by the indicator requires a valid IFVG, just like liquidity sweeps and V shape recoveries. Without a confirmed IFVG, the model will not produce a setup. 🔹 What Is an Inversion Fair Value Gap? An Inversion Fair Value Gap is a Fair Value Gap that becomes invalidated by a candle close in the opposite direction. This “flip” confirms that the original imbalance failed and that the market has shifted. A bullish IFVG forms when a bearish FVG is invalidated by a candle closing above it. A bearish IFVG forms when a bullish FVG is invalidated by a candle closing below it. In the indicator, IFVGs are not used as retracement areas. Signals are generated immediately when a valid IFVG forms, not after price returns to the gap. The IFVG itself is the confirmation event that finalizes a setup sequence after a liquidity sweep and V shape recovery. 🔹 How the Indicator Plots IFVGs The indicator only plots IFVGs that are used in long or short setups. Not every possible IFVG is shown on the chart. Only the IFVG involved in a confirmed signal is displayed. Users can disable IFVG plots entirely if they prefer a minimal view. This hides the visual gaps but does not affect the signal logic. 🔹 Customization Options Users can customize how IFVGs appear on the chart: Color Settings: Choose separate fill colors for bullish IFVGs and bearish IFVGs. Midline: Toggle an optional midline inside the IFVG and choose between a solid, dashed, or dotted line. Midline Color: Adjust the color of the IFVG Midline. MACROS: Macros are short, predefined time windows, where price is more likely to seek liquidity or rebalance imbalances. These periods often create sharp movements or shifts in delivery, giving additional context to setups. In the Inversion Fair Value Gap Model, macros are used as a confluence factor. When a long or short signal forms during a macro time window, the setup’s rating can increase from A to A+ or from A+ to A++. Macros are not required for a signal to form, but they increase the signal’s rating when the setup aligns with macro timing. 🔹 How the Indicator Uses Macros The indicator allows users to enable up to five macros. Each macro has its own start and end time, which the user can customize. These time windows are used directly in the signal logic. If a valid IFVG setup forms while price is inside any of the enabled macro windows, the indicator increases the signal’s rating. Users may visually disable macros on the chart without affecting signal logic. Disabling visuals hides the macro zones, labels, and lines, but the underlying macro logic continues to function in the background for signals. The indicator’s default macros use the following time periods (in EST): 09:50 - 10:10 10:50 - 11:10 11:50 - 12:10 12:50 - 13:10 13:50 - 14:10 🔹 Macro Settings Each macro displays a shaded zone representing the active time window. This zone can be toggled on or off. Users can customize: The color of each macro zone The opacity of each zone Whether the zones display at all (‘Show Zones’) These visuals help identify whether price is currently inside a macro window. 🔹 Macro Labels: Users can enable macro labels, which place a text label showing the macro’s title and its time window. The label color is global (applies to all macros), and the label size can be adjusted. Individual macros cannot have unique label colors. 🔹 Macro Start/End Lines For additional clarity, the indicator draws two vertical markers for each macro: One at the start of the macro One at the end of the macro A horizontal macro line is then drawn between the highs of these two candles to highlight the full duration of the macro window. Users can customize: The line styles (solid, dashed, dotted) of the Macro Line and Start/End Lines BIAS: Bias determines which direction the indicator is allowed to generate signals. A bullish bias means only long setups can be confirmed. A bearish bias means only short setups can be confirmed. The bias acts as the final directional filter after a liquidity sweep, V shape recovery, and IFVG have all been validated. Even if all model conditions are met, the indicator will only confirm the setup if the direction aligns with the active bias. Users are able to manually set a bias or use an automatic bias filter, which is explained below. 🔹 Manual Bias Users can manually choose the directional bias at any time and choose between Bullish, Bearish, or Both. When set to Bullish, the indicator will only confirm long setups, regardless of market structure. When set to Bearish, only short setups are allowed. When set to Both, the indicator can confirm both long and short setups if all requirements are met. 🔹 Automatic Bias Automatic bias is fully rules-based and determined by how the previous session interacted with major draw-on-liquidity (DOL) levels. These levels include 1-hour highs and lows, 4-hour highs and lows, previous session highs and lows (such as Asia or London), and the previous day’s high and low. The indicator evaluates whether the previous session consolidated, manipulated liquidity, or manipulated and reversed before closing. Based on this behavior, the indicator establishes a directional bias for the current session. ◇ Previous Session Consolidation: If the previous session did not sweep any major liquidity levels and price remained inside its range, the session is classified as consolidation. After the current session sweeps a key low, the bias becomes bullish. After the current session sweeps a key high, the bias becomes bearish. The bias is determined live based on which side the current session manipulates first. ◇ Previous Session Manipulation (No Reversal): If the previous session swept a major high-timeframe level but did not reverse before the session closed, the model assigns a reversal-based bias at the start of the current session. If the previous session swept a low, the current session bias is bullish. If the previous session swept a high, the current session bias is bearish. Here, bias is determined immediately because the previous session’s manipulation defines the directional framework for the current session. ◇ Previous Session Manipulation + Reversal: If the previous session swept a DOL level and also reversed away from it within the same session, the model assigns a continuation-based bias at the start of the current session. If the previous session swept a low and reversed upward, the bias for the current session is bullish. If the previous session swept a high and reversed downward, the bias is bearish. 🔹 How the Indicator Uses Bias in Practice After the indicator validates the liquidity sweep, V shape recovery, and IFVG, it checks the active bias before confirming a signal. If bias is bullish, only long setups are allowed. If bias is bearish, only short setups are allowed. If bias is Both, setups of either direction may form. The bias does not influence the detection of liquidity sweeps, V shape recoveries, or IFVGs. It only determines whether those validated components are allowed to produce a final signal. Automatic bias updates based on session behavior, while manual bias remains fixed until the user changes it. SIGNALS: Signals are the final output of the Inversion Fair Value Gap Model indicator. A signal is only generated when all model conditions are satisfied in a clear, rules-based sequence. A signal consists of: An Entry A Stop-Loss (SL) A Breakeven (BE) level Two Take-Profit levels (TP1 and TP2) These components are plotted immediately once the final requirement (the IFVG confirmation) is met and the directional filter (bias) allows the setup. Signals can be rated A, A+, or A++, based on whether certain confluences were present during the setup’s formation. 🔹 What All Signals Have in Common Each signal type (A, A+, A++) requires the same four mandatory conditions. If any of these four are missing, the indicator will not print a signal. ◇ Required Component #1 – Valid Directional Bias The bias determines whether the indicator can confirm a long or short setup. Bullish bias → only long setups allowed Bearish bias → only short setups allowed Both → long or short setups allowed Automatic bias → bias determined by session-based liquidity logic explained above ◇ Required Component #2 – Liquidity Sweep The indicator must detect one of the following: Sellside Liquidity Sweep (SSL Sweep) for potential long setups Buyside Liquidity Sweep (BSL Sweep) for potential short setups ◇ Required Component #3 – V Shape Recovery After a liquidity sweep, the indicator evaluates whether price produced a valid V shape recovery. ◇ Required Component #4 – Inversion Fair Value Gap (IFVG) An IFVG must form in the direction of the potential setup. A bullish IFVG forms when a bearish FVG is invalidated by a candle closing above that gap A bearish IFVG forms when a bullish FVG is invalidated by a candle closing below that gap The IFVG must occur after the V Shape Recovery and Liquidity Sweep. The IFVG confirmation is the final structural requirement. Once it forms, the setup is considered structurally complete. 🔹 A Signals An A-rated signal contains exactly the four required components: Valid Bias Liquidity Sweep V Shape Recovery IFVG An A signals represent the foundational implementation of the IFVG Model. 🔹 A+ Signals An A+ signal includes the full A-signal structure plus ONE of the following: Higher-Timeframe FVG Tap Multi-Liquidity Sweep Inside a Macro Window ◇ Higher-Timeframe FVG Tap During a liquidity sweep, the indicator checks whether price taps into any enabled HTF FVG. A tap occurs when price trades inside the boundaries of a higher-timeframe FVG during or immediately after the sweep. A bullish HTF FVG tap during a sellside sweep supports a long setup. A bearish HTF FVG tap during a buyside sweep supports a short setup. ◇ Multi-Liquidity Sweep A Multi-Liquidity Sweep occurs when price sweeps two liquidity levels of the same type in the same directional push. Sweeping two lows in one move: Multi-Sellside Liquidity Sweep (long setups). Sweeping two highs in one move → Multi-Buyside Liquidity Sweep (short setups). ◇ Inside a Macro Window The final IFVG confirmation must occur inside a macro time window defined by the user. If exactly one of these additional confluences is present, the signal rating is A+. 🔹 A++ Signals (Two Additional Confluences) An A++ signal contains the full A signal structure plus TWO of the three confluences listed above. HTF FVG tap + Multi-Liquidity Sweep HTF FVG tap + Inside a Macro Window Multi-Liquidity Sweep + Inside a Macro Window If two confluences are present, the rating becomes A++. If all three are present, the setup is still rated a A++ (there is no A+++). 🔹 Signal Plots When a valid long/short setup is detected, a signal with its rating appears with the following: Entry: At the close of the candle that inverted a FVG Stop-Loss: At the nearest swing high for short setups or nearest swing low for long setups Breakeven Level: At the nearest swing high for long setups or the nearest swing low for short setups Take-Profit 1: At the second nearest swing high for long setups or the second nearest swing low for short setups. Take-Profit 2: At the third nearest swing high for long setups or the third nearest swing low for short setups. After a signal reaches either TP2 or SL, the levels for Entry, SL, BE, TP1, and TP2 are removed from the chart. If another signal appears before the prior signal reaches either TP2 or SL, the levels are also removed. Users can hover over any signal label to view a short summary of the exact criteria that were met for that setup. This includes whether a HTF FVG tap occurred, whether a multi-liquidity sweep was detected, whether the setup formed inside a macro window, and which liquidity level was swept prior to the V shape recovery. 🔹 Long Setup – A Rating A long A-rated setup forms when all four core requirements of the IFVG Model occur without any additional confluences. First, price must sweep a Sellside Liquidity level. Immediately after the sweep, price must form a valid V shape recovery. Once the recovery completes, a bullish IFVG must form by invalidating a bearish Fair Value Gap with a candle close above it. For a confirmed long signal, the indicator marks: Entry: At the candle close that invalidates the bearish FVG and creates the IFVG Stop Loss: At the nearest swing low Breakeven: Midpoint between entry and stop-loss Take Profit 1: At the second nearest swing high Take Profit 2: At the third nearest swing high In this example, price sweeps a swing low, has a V Shape recovery, and forms a bullish IFVG: 🔹 Short Setup – A Rating A short A-rated setup forms when all four core requirements of the IFVG Model occur without any additional confluences. Price must first sweep a Buyside Liquidity level. Immediately after the sweep, price must form a valid V shape recovery. Once the recovery completes, a bearish IFVG must form by invalidating a bullish Fair Value Gap with a candle close below it. For a confirmed short signal, the indicator marks: Entry: At the candle close that invalidates the bullish FVG and creates the IFVG Stop Loss: At the nearest swing high Breakeven: Midpoint between entry and stop-loss Take Profit 1: At the second nearest swing low Take Profit 2: At the third nearest swing low In this example, price sweeps a swing high, has a V shape recovery, and forms a bearish IFVG: 🔹 Long Setup – A+ Rating A long A+ setup forms when the four core requirements of the IFVG Model occur and exactly one additional confluence is present. Price must sweep a Sellside Liquidity level, form a valid V shape recovery, and create a bullish IFVG by invalidating a bearish FVG. One of the following must also occur: a bullish HTF FVG tap during the liquidity sweep, a multi-sellside liquidity sweep, or the IFVG confirmation forms inside a macro window. For a confirmed long A+ signal, the indicator marks: Entry: At the candle close that creates the bullish IFVG Stop Loss: At the nearest swing low Breakeven: Midpoint between entry and stop-loss Take Profit 1: At the second nearest swing high Take Profit 2: At the third nearest swing high In this example, price sweeps the NY AM Session Low, taps a 30-minute HTF FVG during the sweep, has a V shape recovery, and forms a bullish IFVG: 🔹 Short Setup – A+ Rating A short A+ setup forms when the four core requirements of the IFVG Model occur and exactly one additional confluence is present. Price must sweep a Buyside Liquidity level, form a valid V shape recovery, and create a bearish IFVG by invalidating a bullish FVG. One of the following must also occur: a bearish HTF FVG tap, a multi-buyside liquidity sweep, or the IFVG confirmation forms inside a macro window. For a confirmed short A+ signal, the indicator marks: Entry: At the candle close that creates the bearish IFVG Stop Loss: At the nearest swing high Breakeven: Midpoint between entry and stop-loss Take Profit 1: At the second nearest swing low Take Profit 2: At the third nearest swing low In this example, price sweeps a swing high, has a V shape recovery, and forms a bearish IFVG inside of the 13:50-14:10 macro: 🔹 Long Setup – A++ Rating A long A++ setup forms when the four core requirements of the IFVG Model occur and at least two additional confluences are present. Price must sweep a Sellside Liquidity level, form a valid V shape recovery, and create a bullish IFVG. The setup must also include any two or three of the following: a bullish HTF FVG tap, a multi-sellside liquidity sweep, or the IFVG confirmation forming inside a macro window. For a confirmed long A++ signal, the indicator marks: Entry: At the candle close that creates the bullish IFVG Stop Loss: At the nearest swing low Breakeven: Midpoint between entry and stop-loss Take Profit 1: At the second nearest swing high Take Profit 2: At the third nearest swing high In this example, price sweeps two swing lows, has a V shape recovery, taps a bullish 30-minute HTF FVG during the liquidity sweep, and forms a bullish IFVG inside of the 10:50-11:10 macro: 🔹 Short Setup – A++ Rating A short A++ setup forms when the four core requirements of the IFVG Model occur and at least two additional confluences are present. Price must sweep a Buyside Liquidity level, form a valid V shape recovery, and create a bearish IFVG. The setup must also include any two or three of the following: a bearish HTF FVG tap, a multi-buyside liquidity sweep, or the IFVG confirmation forming inside a macro window. For a confirmed short A++ signal, the indicator marks: Entry: At the candle close that creates the bearish IFVG Stop Loss: At the nearest swing high Breakeven: Midpoint between entry and stop-loss Take Profit 1: At the second nearest swing low Take Profit 2: At the third nearest swing low In this example, price sweeps a swing high, has a V shape recovery, taps a bearish 30-minute HTF FVG during the liquidity sweep, and forms a bearish IFVG inside of the 09:50-10:10 macro: 🔹Signal Settings ◇ Liquidity Levels Used: Users can select which type of liquidity levels the indicator uses for identifying liquidity sweeps: Swing Points: Only uses Swing Highs/Lows Session Highs/Lows: Only uses Session Highs/Lows Both: Uses both Swing Highs/Lows and Session Highs/Lows ◇ Bias: This setting determines which signal directions are allowed. Manual Bias: Users can manually choose the directional bias, picking between Bullish, Bearish, or Both. Automatic Bias: The indicator automatically determines a directional bias based on the criteria mentioned in the previous Bias section. ◇ IFVG Sensitivity: This setting determines the minimum gap size required for an FVG to qualify as an Inversion FVG. Higher values: only larger FVGs become IFVGs Lower values: smaller gaps are allowed ◇ Use First Presented IFVG: This setting determines whether the indicator limits signals to only the first IFVG created within the manipulation leg. What Is the First Presented IFVG? It is the earliest FVG formed inside the displacement that causes the liquidity sweep. For a bearish manipulation leg (price moving downward into the sweep), the first presented IFVG is the first FVG created at the start of that downward move: For a bullish manipulation leg (price moving upward into the sweep), the first presented IFVG is the first FVG created at the start of that upward move: When this setting is enabled, the indicator will only confirm signals when the IFVG used is derived from this first presented FVG. IFVGs that form later in the manipulation leg are not used for signal generation. ◇ Only Take Trades: This setting allows users to restrict signals to a defined time window. If a complete setup occurs inside the time window, it is allowed and plotted If it occurs outside the window, the signal will not appear For example, if you only wanted to see long/short signals between 9:30 AM and 12:00 PM, you would enable this setting and set the time window from 09:30 - 12:00. ◇ Minimum R:R This setting allows users to require a minimum risk-to-reward ratio before a signal is confirmed and plotted on the chart. The risk-to-reward ratio is calculated using the distance from the Entry to the Stop-Loss (risk) and the distance from the Entry to TP2 (reward). The indicator compares these distances and determines whether the setup meets or exceeds the minimum R:R value selected by the user. If the calculated R:R is equal to or greater than the chosen threshold, the signal will be displayed. If the calculated R:R is lower than the threshold, the signal will not appear on the chart. 🔹 Signal Rating Minimum Users can restrict which signal ratings appear: A: shows all signals A+: shows only A+ and A++ A++: shows only A++ setups 🔹 Signal Styling and Customization The indicator provides full control over how signal labels and levels appear on your chart. Users can customize long signals, short signals, all plotted lines, and the visibility of every individual element. ◇ Long Signal Styling Users can customize: Long Signal Label Color Long Signal Text Color Long Signal Label Size ◇ Short Signal Styling Users can customize: Short Signal Label Color Short Signal Text Color Short Signal Label Size ◇ Entry, Stop Loss, Breakeven, and Take Profit Lines Each line type can be enabled or disabled individually: Entry Line Stop Loss Line Breakeven Line Take Profit 1 & 2 Lines Users can also set custom colors for each line so every level is easy to track during live price movement. ◇ Show Price Labels Price labels can be toggled on or off individually for each level. Users can choose whether to show or hide the price for: Entry Stop loss Breakeven Take Profit 1 & 2 NEW DAY OPENING GAP: The New Day Opening Gap (NDOG) highlights the price difference between the previous day’s closing candle and the first candle of the new trading day. The indicator tracks this gap automatically each day and makes it available as optional context for users. 🔹 What Is the New Day Opening Gap? A New Day Opening Gap forms when the trading day opens at a price different from the previous day’s final closing price. If the new day opens above the prior day’s close → Bullish NDOG If the new day opens below the prior day’s close → Bearish NDOG This gap acts as a short-term draw on liquidity because the market may revisit the gap to rebalance price delivery. While the NDOG is not a required component for IFVG signals. 🔹 How the Indicator Uses the New Day Opening Gap When enabled, the indicator plots the gap as a rectangular zone spanning from the previous day’s close to the new day’s open. The zone remains active until it is fully filled by price or until the next day’s opening gap forms. Once price trades through the entire gap, or once a new NDOG replaces it the following day, the zone becomes inactive and is removed from the chart. The indicator does not use the NDOG for signal generation. It is strictly a visual tool that helps traders identify areas where price may retrace or seek liquidity during the session. 🔹 Customization Options Users have full control over how the New Day Opening Gap displays on the chart: Show New Day Opening Gap: Toggle the NDOG zone on or off Bullish NDOG Color: Customize the fill color for gaps formed above the prior close Bearish NDOG Color: Customize the fill color for gaps formed below the prior close NEW WEEK OPENING GAP: The New Week Opening Gap (NWOG) highlights the price difference between the previous week’s final closing candle and the first candle of the new trading week. The indicator tracks this gap automatically each week and provides it as optional context for users. 🔹 What Is the New Week Opening Gap? A New Week Opening Gap forms when the new trading week opens at a price different from the previous week’s closing price. If the new week opens above the prior week’s close → Bullish NWOG If the new week opens below the prior week’s close → Bearish NWOG This gap often serves as a medium-term draw on liquidity because price may return to rebalance the weekly displacement. The NWOG is not a required component for IFVG signals. 🔹 How the Indicator Uses the New Week Opening Gap When enabled, the indicator plots the gap as a rectangular zone spanning from the previous week’s close to the new week’s open. The zone remains active until it is fully filled by price or until the next week’s opening gap forms. Once price trades through the entire gap, or once a new NWOG replaces it the following week, the zone becomes inactive and is removed from the chart. The indicator does not use the NWOG for signal generation. It is purely a visual reference to help traders identify areas where price may rebalance or seek liquidity during the week. 🔹 Customization Options Users have full control over how the New Week Opening Gap displays on the chart: Show New Week Opening Gap: Toggle the NWOG zone on or off Bullish NWOG Color: Set the fill color for gaps formed above the prior weekly close Bearish NWOG Color: Set the fill color for gaps formed below the prior weekly close SMT DIVERGENCES: The indicator automatically marks SMT Divergences that occur between the current selected chart ticker and a second user-selected ticker. A SMT Divergence forms when the prices of the currently selected chart ticker and the user-selected ticker don’t follow each other. For example, if the current chart’s ticker symbol is SEED_ALEXDRAYM_SHORTINTEREST2:NQ and the user-selected ticker is $ES. If SEED_ALEXDRAYM_SHORTINTEREST2:NQ does not sweep the low of the NY AM Session, but NYSE:ES sweeps that same exact session’s low during the same candle, then a SMT Divergence is detected. In the images below, SEED_ALEXDRAYM_SHORTINTEREST2:NQ and NYSE:ES form a low at 12:20 AM on November 12th. At 12:35 AM, the 12:20 AM low is taken out on $NQ. However, on NYSE:ES , price failed to take out this exact low at 12:35 AM. Thus, an SMT Divergence is detected, and a line is drawn between the two lows on $NQ. NYSE:ES Chart: SEED_ALEXDRAYM_SHORTINTEREST2:NQ Chart: 🔹 SMT Divergence Settings The indicator includes settings that allow users to control how SMT Divergences are detected and displayed. ◇ Length Length controls how sensitive the pivot detection is when finding highs and lows for SMT. Lower Length: confirms swings with fewer bars, so more swings qualify. Higher Length: requires more bars to confirm a swing, so fewer swings qualify. ◇ Divergence Length The Divergence Length setting defines how many bars apart the two swing points may be for them to count as part of the same SMT Divergence. Higher Values: The two instruments can form their swing highs or lows farther apart in time. As long as both swings occur within this wider bar window, the indicator compares them for divergence. Lower Values: The two swing points must occur very close to each other. ◇ Show Last This setting limits how many recent SMT Divergences are displayed on the chart. For example, setting Show Last to 1 will only show the most recent SMT Divergence, while higher values allow more historical SMT Divergences to remain visible on the chart. ◇ Divergence Ticker Users can change the ticker used for detections. Since SMT Divergences occur by comparing two tickers, the inputted ticker within the settings will always be compared to the current selected ticker on your chart. DASHBOARD: The dashboard provides a live summary of all major components of the Inversion Fair Value Gap Model. It updates every candle and displays the current state of each requirement used in the setup logic. 🔹 Real-Time Model Components The state of each component is displayed with the following: ✔️ = condition is satisfied ❌ = condition is not satisfied 🐂 / 🐻 = current directional bias (bullish or bearish) The dashboard actively tracks the following: ◇ Bias (🐂 Bullish, 🐻 Bearish, or Both) Shows the current bias with a bull or bear emoji. If using automatic bias, the dashboard updates as soon as the session logic determines a direction. ◇ Liquidity Sweep Displays ✔️ once a valid BSL Sweep (for shorts) or SSL Sweep (for longs) is detected. Shows ❌ when no sweep is present. ◇ V Shape Recovery Displays ✔️ when a confirmed V shape recovery forms after the sweep. Shows ❌ until a valid V shape appears. ◇ Inversion Fair Value Gap (IFVG) Shows ✔️ once a bullish or bearish IFVG forms in the correct direction. Shows ❌ when no IFVG has yet confirmed. ◇ Higher-Timeframe FVG Interaction Displays ✔️ when price is currently inside any enabled HTF FVG or taps a HTF FVG during a liquidity sweep. Displays ❌ when price is not inside a HTF imbalance. ◇ Clear Opposite Draw on Liquidity (DOL) Shows ✔️ when a clear opposite-side draw is present in the model logic. Shows ❌ if no clear opposite draw is detected. ◇ SMT Divergence Shows ✔️ for 20 candles immediately after an SMT Divergence forms. After 20 candles, it returns to ❌ unless a new SMT Divergence is detected. 🔹 Signal Information Display When a valid long or short signal appears, the dashboard expands to show the full details of the setup, including: Signal Rating Entry Price Stop-Loss Price Breakeven Price Take Profit 1 Price Take Profit 2 Price 🔹 Trade Statistics Module Users can enable a built-in statistics panel to view historical performance of signals across all ratings. The trade stats include: A Signal Win Rate A+ Signal Win Rate A++ Signal Win Rate Long Signal Win Rate Short Signal Win Rate Total Number of Trades Used in the Calculations A trade is counted as a win if price reaches breakeven before stop-loss. A trade is counted as a loss if price hits stop-loss before breakeven. 🔹 Dashboard Customization The dashboard includes several options to control its appearance and position: Show Dashboard: Toggle the entire dashboard on or off Dashboard Size: Choose the size of the dashboard Dashboard Position: Choose the location of the dashboard on the chart Trade Stats Text Color: Customize the color of the 2nd column outputs under the Trade Stats section in the dashboard ◇ Component Toggles Users can enable or disable the display of any model component based on preference. Each of these items can be shown or hidden independently: Setup Rating Entry Stop-Loss Breakeven Take Profit 1 Take Profit 2 Bias Liquidity Sweep Higher-Timeframe FVG Interaction V Shape Recovery Inversion FVG Clear Opposite Draw on Liquidity Trade Stats These toggles only affect visual display. Disabling any of them does not affect the underlying indicator’s logic. ALERTS: The Inversion Fair Value Gap Model includes full alert functionality using AnyAlert(), allowing users to receive notifications in real time for all major model components and signal events. Users can enable or disable each alert type in the “Alerts” section of the settings. After selecting which alerts they want active, they can create a single TradingView alert using the AnyAlert() condition. This will automatically trigger alerts for all enabled events as soon as they occur on the chart. Available Alerts: Long Signal Short Signal Breakeven Hit (BE) Take Profit 1 Hit (TP1) Take Profit 2 Hit (TP2) Stop-Loss Hit (SL) Liquidity Sweep Detected SMT Divergence Detected How to Receive Alerts: Open the TradingView alert creation window. Select the IFVG Model indicator as the alert condition. Choose AnyAlert() from the condition dropdown. Create the alert. IMPORTANT NOTES: TradingView has limitations when running features on multiple timeframes such as the HTF FVGs, which can result in the following restriction: Computation Error: The computation of using MTF features is very intensive on TradingView. This can sometimes cause calculation timeouts. When this occurs, simply force the recalculation by modifying one indicator’s settings or by removing the indicator and adding it to your chart again. UNIQUENESS: This indicator is unique because it organizes every part of the Inversion Fair Value Gap Model into one structured, rules based system. It detects liquidity sweeps, confirms V shape recoveries, identifies valid IFVGs, checks higher timeframe FVG taps, reads macro timing, and applies a session based directional bias. All of these components are evaluated in a fixed sequence so users always know exactly why a signal appears. Every part of the logic is customizable, including which liquidity types are used, which IFVGs qualify for signals, which time windows allow trades, the minimum risk to reward for a setup, and all visual elements on the chart. The tool also includes optional SMT Divergence detection, daily and weekly opening gaps, a live dashboard that shows the state of each model requirement, and optional signal performance statistics.

PivotBoss VWAP Bands (Auto TF) - FixedWhat this indicator shows (high level) The indicator plots a VWAP line and three bands above (R1, R2, R3) and three bands below (S1, S2, S3). Band spacing is computed from STD(abs(VWAP − price), N) and multiplied by 1, 2 and 3 to form R1–R3 / S1–S3. The script is timeframe-aware: on 30m/1H charts it uses Weekly VWAP and weekly bands; on Daily charts it uses Monthly VWAP and monthly bands; otherwise it uses the session/chart VWAP. VWAP = the market’s volume-weighted average price (a measure of fair value). Bands = volatility-scaled zones around that fair value. Trading idea — concept summary VWAP = fair value. Price above VWAP implies bullish bias; below VWAP implies bearish bias. Bands = graded overbought/oversold zones. R1/S1 are near-term limits, R2/S2 are stronger, R3/S3 are extreme. Use trend alignment + price action + volume to choose higher-probability trades. VWAP bands give location and magnitude; confirmations reduce false signals. Entry rules (multiple strategies with examples) A. Momentum breakout (trend-following) — preferred on trending markets Setup: Price consolidates near or below R1 and then closes above R1 with above-average volume. Chart: 30m/1H (Weekly VWAP) or Daily (Monthly VWAP) depending on your timeframe. Entry: Enter long at the close of the breakout bar that closes above R1. Stop-loss: Place initial stop below the higher of (VWAP or recent swing low). Example: if price broke R1 at ₹1,200 and VWAP = ₹1,150, set stop at ₹1,145 (5 rupee buffer below VWAP) or below the last swing low if that is wider. Target: Partial target at R2, full target at R3. Trail stop to VWAP or to R1 after price reaches R2. Example numeric: Weekly VWAP = ₹1,150, R1 = ₹1,200, R2 = ₹1,260. Buy at ₹1,205 (close above R1), stop ₹1,145, target1 ₹1,260 (R2), target2 ₹1,320 (R3). B. Mean-reversion fade near bands — for range-bound markets Setup: Market is not trending (VWAP flatish). Price rallies up to R2 or R3 and shows rejection (pin bar, bearish engulfing) on increasing or neutral volume. Entry: Enter short after a confirmed rejection candle that fails to sustain above R2 or R3 (prefer confirmation: close back below R1 or below the rejection candle low). Stop-loss: Just above the recent high (e.g., 1–2 ATR or a fixed buffer above R2/R3). Target: First target VWAP, second target S1. Reduce size if taking R3 fade as it’s an extreme. Example numeric: VWAP = ₹950, R2 = ₹1,020. Price spikes to ₹1,025 and forms a bearish engulfing candle. Enter short at ₹1,015 after the next close below ₹1,020. Stop at ₹1,035, target VWAP ₹950. C. Pullback entries in trending markets — higher probability Setup: Price is above VWAP and trending higher (higher highs and higher lows). Price pulls back toward VWAP or S1 with decreasing downside volume and a reversal candle forms. Entry: Long when price forms a bullish reversal (hammer/inside-bar) with a close back above the pullback candle. Stop-loss: Below the pullback low (or below S2 if a larger stop is justified). Target: VWAP then R1; if momentum resumes, trail toward R2/R3. Example numeric: Price trending above Weekly VWAP at ₹1,400; pullback to S1 at ₹1,360. Enter long at ₹1,370 when a bullish candle closes; stop at ₹1,350; first target VWAP ₹1,400, second target R1 ₹1,450. Exit rules and money management Basic exit hierarchy Hard stop exit — when price hits initial stop-loss. Always use. Target exit — take partial profits at R1/R2 (for longs) or S1/S2 (for shorts). Use trailing stops for the remainder. VWAP invalidation — if you entered long above VWAP and price returns and closes significantly below VWAP, consider exiting (condition depends on timeframe and trade size). Price action exit — reversal patterns (strong opposite candle, bearish/bullish engulfing) near targets or beyond signals to exit. Trailing rules After price reaches R2, move stop to breakeven + a small buffer or to VWAP. After price reaches R3, trail by 1 ATR or lock a defined profit percentage. Position sizing & risk Risk per trade: commonly 0.5–2% of account equity. Determine position size by RiskAmount ÷ (EntryPrice − StopPrice). If the stop distance is large (e.g., trading R3 fades), reduce position size. Filters & confirmation (to reduce false signals) Volume filter: For breakouts, require volume above short-term average (e.g., >20-period average). Breakouts on low volume are suspect. Trend filter: Only take breakouts in the direction of the higher-timeframe trend (for example, use Daily/Weekly trend when trading 30m/1H). Candle confirmation: Prefer entries on close of the confirming candle (not intrabar noise). Multiple confirmations: When R1 break happens but RSI/plotted momentum indicator does not confirm, treat signal as lower probability. Special considerations for timeframe-aware logic On 30m/1H the script uses Weekly VWAP/bands. That means band levels change only on weekly candles — they are strong, structural levels. Treat R1/R2/R3 as significant and expect fewer, stronger signals. On Daily, the script uses Monthly VWAP/bands. These are wider; trades should allow larger stops and smaller position sizes (or be used for swing trades). On other intraday charts you get session VWAP (useful for intraday scalps). Example: If you trade 1H and the Weekly R1 is at ₹2,400 while session VWAP is ₹2,350, a close above Weekly R1 represents a weekly-level breakout — prefer that for swing entries rather than scalps. Example trade walkthrough (step-by-step) Context: 1H chart, auto-mapped → Weekly VWAP used. Weekly VWAP = ₹3,000; R1 = ₹3,080; R2 = ₹3,150. Price consolidates below R1. A large bullish candle closes at ₹3,085 with volume 40% above the 20-bar average. Entry: Buy at close ₹3,085. Stop: Place stop at ₹2,995 (just under Weekly VWAP). Risk = ₹90. Position size: If risking ₹900 per trade → size = 900 ÷ 90 = 10 units. Targets: Partial take-profit at R2 = ₹3,150; rest trailed with stop moved to breakeven after R2 is hit. If price reverses and closes below VWAP within two bars, exit immediately to limit drawdown. When to avoid trading these signals High-impact news (earnings, macro announcements) that can gap through bands unpredictably. Thin markets with low volume — VWAP loses significance when volumes are extremely low. When weekly/monthly bands are flat but intraday price is volatile without clear structure — prefer session VWAP on smaller timeframes. Alerts & automation suggestions Alert on close above R1 / below S1 (use the built-in alertcondition the script adds). For higher-confidence alerts, require volume filter in the alert condition. Automated order rules (if you automate): use limit entry at breakout close plus a small slippage buffer, immediate stop order, and OCO for TP and SL.

Manipulation Model [FB]GENERAL OVERVIEW: The Manipulation Model indicator is a complete rule-based system that identifies and confirms setups from the Funded Brothers Manipulation Model. It detects large impulsive candles, called Manipulation Candles and Almost Manipulation Candles, that form around key market levels such as session highs/lows, daily, weekly, and monthly levels, or higher timeframe Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). Using this structure, the indicator automatically marks long, short, bulltrap, and beartrap setups with predefined entry, stop loss, and take profit areas. This indicator was developed by Flux Charts in collaboration with the Funded Brothers. ATTRIBUTION NOTICE: This indicator incorporates concepts and source code from the indicator “MCs with Alerts” authored by @hamza_xau on TradingView. We have received full written permission from the original author to use and commercialize this code within this invite-only script. Original script: MCs with Alerts: What is the purpose of the indicator?: The indicator automates detection of the Manipulation Model trading strategy setups by combining candle structure, key levels, session timing, and higher timeframe Fair Value Gaps. It removes discretion by enforcing fixed conditions for valid signals and automatically managing entry, stop-loss, and take-profit logic. What is the theory behind the indicator?: The indicator is built on how price interacts with major reference points such as session highs and lows, or daily and weekly levels. These levels are commonly referenced in technical analysis as areas where price previously reversed or consolidated. Manipulation Candles identify moments when price breaks past these reference points on both sides of the prior candle before closing firmly in one direction. When these candles form near higher timeframe Fair Value Gaps, it reflects price reacting inside an area that previously showed directional imbalance. The higher timeframe EMA filter aligns all detected setups with the broader market trend, allowing only signals that match the dominant direction. MANIPULATION MODEL FEATURES: Manipulation Candlesticks Almost Manipulation Candlesticks Higher Timeframe Fair Value Gaps Sessions Key Levels Signals Dashboard Alerts MANIPULATION CANDLESTICKS: Manipulation Candlesticks (MCs) are candles that sweep both sides of the previous candle’s range and close outside of it. In the Manipulation Model indicator, these candles form the foundation for the long/short setups. Once one forms, the indicator checks its position relative to sessions, key levels, and higher timeframe Fair Value Gaps to determine if a valid setup exists. 🔹What is a Manipulation Candlestick? A Manipulation Candlestick (MC) is defined by structure rather than size. It forms when price takes out both the high and low of the previous candle, then closes outside that range. A bullish Manipulation Candle occurs when price sweeps below the previous candle’s low and then closes above the previous candle’s high. A bearish Manipulation Candle occurs when price sweeps above the previous candle’s high and then closes below the previous candle’s low. 🔹How to interpret and use Manipulation Candlesticks: Manipulation Candlesticks show where price made a strong one-sided move after taking both sides of the previous candle’s range. When one forms, it marks an area where buyers or sellers were likely trapped as price moved aggressively in one direction. A bullish MC shows strong buying after a false move lower. Price sweeps below the prior low, takes out the prior high, and closes above the previous range, confirming buyers are in control. A bearish MC shows strong selling after a false move higher than the previous candle’s high. Price sweeps above the prior high, drops below the prior low, and closes beneath the previous range, confirming sellers are dominant. 🔹How Manipulation Candlesticks are identified: The indicator confirms Manipulation Candles using three filters once a candle closes: Sweep Condition: Price must take both sides of the previous candle’s range, moving above its high and below its low, before closing outside that range. Directional Close: A bullish MC must close above the previous high, and a bearish MC must close below the previous low. Wick Confirmation: A bullish MC must have a smaller upper wick (high - close) than lower wick (open - low), and a bearish MC must have a smaller lower wick (close - low) than upper wick (high - open). Once these conditions are met at candle close, it is confirmed as a bullish or bearish Manipulation Candle. 🔹Bullish Manipulation Candle A bullish Manipulation Candle forms when price sweeps below the previous candle’s low, then breaks above its high, and closes above it. The lower wick must be larger than the upper wick, showing little pullback as price pushed upward and confirming strong buying pressure. 🔹Bearish Manipulation Candle A bearish Manipulation Candle forms when price sweeps above the previous candle’s high, then drops below its low, and closes beneath it. The upper wick must be larger than the lower wick, showing little pullback as price moved downward and confirming strong selling pressure. 🔹Manipulation Candle Visuals When the indicator detects a Manipulation Candle, it automatically changes the candle’s color on the chart. Both bullish and bearish Manipulation Candles use the same color. Users can change this color in the settings by adjusting the “Manipulation Candlestick” option found under the “Style Customization” section. The candle coloring feature can also be turned off entirely, which only removes the visual highlight from the chart and does not affect the signals or any of the indicator’s underlying logic that uses Manipulation Candlesticks. ALMOST MANIPULATION CANDLESTICKS: Almost Manipulation Candlesticks (AMCs) are similar to Manipulation Candles, except they close inside the previous candle’s range instead of outside it. In the Manipulation Model indicator, these candles help identify when price is showing the same sweeping behavior but hasn’t yet confirmed full displacement. They act as early warnings that a manipulation event may be developing. Just like Manipulation Candles, the indicator checks an AMC’s position relative to sessions, key levels, and higher timeframe Fair Value Gaps to determine if a valid setup exists. 🔹What is an Almost Manipulation Candlestick? An Almost Manipulation Candlestick (AMC) forms when price sweeps both the high and low of the previous candle and closes inside that candle’s range. A bullish AMC occurs when price sweeps below the previous low, moves above the previous high, and closes within the previous candle’s body instead of above it. A bearish AMC occurs when price sweeps above the previous high, drops below the previous low, and closes within the previous candle’s body instead of beneath it. 🔹How to Interpret and Use Almost Manipulation Candlesticks: Almost Manipulation Candles highlight hesitation or early signs of manipulation. A bullish AMC indicates buyers pushed price up after sweeping lower, but price did not close decisively above the prior high. A bearish AMC indicates sellers pushed price down after sweeping higher, but price did not close decisively below the prior low. 🔹How Almost Manipulation Candlesticks are identified: The indicator confirms Almost Manipulation Candles using the same sweep and wick logic as Manipulation Candles, except the candle’s close must remain inside the previous candle’s range: Sweep Condition: Price must take both sides of the previous candle’s range, moving above its high and below its low. Candle Close Location: The candle’s close must stay within the prior candle’s range. Wick Confirmation: For a bullish AMC, the lower wick must be larger than the upper wick. For a bearish AMC, the upper wick must be larger than the lower wick. Once these conditions are met at candle close, it is confirmed as a bullish or bearish Almost Manipulation Candle. 🔹Bullish Almost Manipulation Candle A bullish AMC forms when price sweeps below the previous candle’s low, moves above the prior candle’s high, and closes back inside the previous candle’s range. The lower wick must be larger than the upper wick, showing that buyers defended lower prices but the move did not close decisively upward. 🔹Bearish Almost Manipulation Candle A bearish AMC forms when price sweeps above the previous candle’s high, drops below the previous candle’s low, and closes back inside the previous candle’s range. The upper wick must be larger than the lower wick, showing that sellers rejected higher prices but the candle did not close decisively lower. 🔹Almost Manipulation Candle Visuals When the indicator detects an Almost Manipulation Candle, it automatically changes the candle’s color on the chart. Both bullish and bearish Almost Manipulation Candles use the same color. Users can change this color in the settings by adjusting the “Almost Manipulation Candlestick” option found under the “Style Customization” section. The candle coloring feature can also be turned off entirely, which only removes the visual highlight from the chart and does not affect the signals or any of the indicator’s underlying logic that uses Almost Manipulation Candlesticks. HIGHER TIMEFRAME FAIR VALUE GAPS: The Manipulation Model indicator automatically plots Fair Value Gaps from two user-selected higher timeframes. 🔹What is a Fair Value Gap?: A Fair Value Gap (FVG) is an area where the market’s perception of fair value suddenly changes. On your chart, it appears as a three-candle pattern: a large candle in the middle, with smaller candles on each side that don’t fully overlap it. A bullish FVG forms when a bullish candle is between two smaller bullish/bearish candles, where the first and third candles’ wicks don’t overlap each other at all. A bearish FVG forms when a bearish candle is between two smaller bullish/bearish candles, where the first and third candles’ wicks don’t overlap each other at all. Bullish & Bearish FVGs: 🔹Why are Fair Value Gaps important?: Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) show where price moved so quickly that one side of the market never got a chance to trade. They represent sudden shifts in what traders believe something is worth, where “fair value” changed. When a large candle drives straight through an area without overlap from the candles before and after it, it means buyers or sellers were so aggressive that the market skipped that price zone entirely. These gaps matter because they mark the moment when confidence in price changes. If price rallies and never pulls back, it signals that traders accept the new higher prices as fair and are willing to keep buying there. The same logic applies in reverse for bearish gaps. They tell you where the market re-priced aggressively and where value was last accepted. 🔹How are Fair Value Gaps used?: Higher Timeframe FVGs are used as a confluence for all setups within the Manipulation Model indicator. The indicator automatically detects and plots these imbalances from the chosen higher timeframe onto the current chart. When a Manipulation or Almost Manipulation Candle forms near or inside a higher timeframe Fair Value Gap, it adds context to the setup. They are not trade signals by themselves but act as a supporting element that contextualizes setups. 🔹When are Higher Timeframe Fair Value Gaps mitigated? A Higher Timeframe Fair Value Gap is considered mitigated when the selected higher timeframe closes above the gap for a bearish FVG or below the gap for a bullish FVG. 🔹Higher Timeframe FVG Settings: Timeframe 1 / Timeframe 2: Select up to two higher timeframes to use for Fair Value Gaps. Disabling either one removes it visually from the chart but does not affect signal generation. However, the timeframes you select will be used for signal generation logic. For example, if you select the 1-hour and 4-hour timeframes, then the 1-hour and 4-hour FVGs will be used for signal generation logic, which is explained in the signals section below. Combine Zones: When enabled, overlapping FVGs on the same higher timeframe are merged into a single zone. This keeps the chart clean and prevents duplicate zones from displaying. Midline: Adds a center line through each higher timeframe FVG. Labels: Displays a “ FVG” label beside each zone. This helps users see which timeframe the FVG is detected from. Color Customization: Each timeframe has separate color settings for bullish and bearish FVGs. Users can adjust these colors independently for both timeframes to fit their chart layout. FVG Display Limit: Controls how many higher timeframe FVGs are shown at once. Only the nearest X active gaps to current price will appear, helping maintain a clear view of relevant imbalances. SESSIONS: The Manipulation Model indicator includes six customizable trading sessions: Asia, London, NY AM, NYSE, London Close, and NY PM. All session times and visuals are fully user-configurable. Each session has adjustable start and end times that can be set to match your preferred schedule. Users can also customize visuals for each session, including the color, opacity, and visibility of session zones. Session highs and lows are automatically tracked and used within the indicator’s signal logic. When a Manipulation or Almost Manipulation Candle forms near a session high or low, it is recognized within the indicator’s signal detection. Default times used for each session (in EST): Asia: 20:00 - 00:00 London: 02:00 - 05:00 NY AM: 08:00 - 09:30 NYSE: 09:30 - 10:00 London Close: 10:00 - 11:00 NY PM: 11:00 - 14:00 🔹Session Settings: Session Boxes: Each session has a box that outlines its active time window. These boxes can be toggled on or off independently. When active, they visually separate each part of the trading day. Users can adjust the color and opacity of each session box. Session Highs/Lows: Every session can display its own high and low as horizontal lines. Users can customize the line style for session highs/lows, choosing between solid, dashed, or dotted. The color of the lines will match the same color used for the session box. Labels and Price Display: Labels can be toggled on for all session highs and lows. Users can adjust label color, text size, and choose whether to show the price next to the label. Users can adjust the text size, choosing between tiny, small, normal, large, and huge. Extend Levels: When enabled, each session’s high and low levels can be extended forward by a set number of bars. Session Titles: Titles for each enabled session (e.g., “Asia,” “London,” “NY AM”) can be displayed directly on the chart. Show Last: The “Show Last” setting allows you to choose how many recent sessions of each type appear on the chart. For example, if you only have the Asia session enabled and have this setting set to 2, the recent two Asia sessions will be displayed. 🔹Sessions Used Under the “Sessions Used” section in the settings, users can choose which sessions are active for signal generation. Only sessions enabled here will produce signals. For example, if you want setups to form only during the London session, turn off all other sessions in this section. Disabling a session under the main Sessions section only hides its visuals (boxes, lines, or labels). It does not impact signal detection or logic. However, changing a session’s start and end time in either section will affect signals, since signals are tied to the exact session windows defined by the user. This distinction ensures you have full control over what’s displayed visually versus what contributes to active trade signal logic. Please Note: Signals are only detected and plotted on your chart during sessions. Signals can not be detected outside of session time windows. KEY LEVELS: The Manipulation Model indicator includes 10 key market levels that outline important structural price areas across daily, weekly, and monthly timeframes. These levels include the Daily Open, Previous Day High/Low, Weekly Open, Previous Week High/Low, Monthly Open, Previous Month High/Low, and Midnight Open. The levels can be enabled or disabled and customized in color and line style. These levels are used for the indicator’s signal logic. 🔹Daily Open The Daily Open marks where the current trading day began. 🔹Previous Day High/Low The Previous Day High (PDH) marks the highest price reached during the previous regular trading session. It shows where buyers pushed price to its highest point before the market closed. This value is automatically pulled from the daily chart and projected forward onto intraday timeframes. The Previous Day Low (PDL) marks the lowest price reached during the previous regular trading session. It shows where selling pressure reached its lowest point before buyers stepped in. Like the PDH, this level is retrieved from the prior day’s data and extended into the current session. 🔹Weekly Open The Weekly Open marks the first price of the current trading week. 🔹Previous Week High/Low The Previous Week High (PWH) marks the highest price reached during the previous trading week. It shows where buying pressure reached its peak before the weekly close. This value is automatically pulled from the weekly chart and extended forward into the current week for easy reference on intraday timeframes. The Previous Week Low (PWL) marks the lowest price reached during the previous trading week. It shows where sellers pushed price to its lowest point before buyers regained control. Like the PWH, this level is sourced from the prior week’s data and projected onto the current week’s chart. 🔹Monthly Open The Monthly Open marks the opening price of the current month. 🔹Previous Month High/Low The Previous Month High (PMH) marks the highest price reached during the previous calendar month. It represents the point at which buyers achieved the strongest push before the monthly close. This level is automatically retrieved from the monthly chart and extended into the new month on all lower timeframes. The Previous Month Low (PML) marks the lowest price reached during the previous calendar month. It shows where selling pressure was strongest before buyers stepped back in. Like the PMH, this value is pulled from the prior month’s data and extended into the new month on all lower timeframes. 🔹Midnight Open The Midnight Open marks the first price of the trading day at 00:00 EST. 🔹Customization Options: Users can fully customize the appearance of all key levels, including the following: Daily Levels: Daily Open, PDH, and PDL Weekly Levels: Weekly Open, PWH, and PWL Monthly Levels: Monthly Open, PMH, and PML Midnight Open Color Settings: Each group of levels (Daily, Weekly, Monthly) shares a single color for the Open, High, and Low lines. For example, the Daily Open, PDH, and PDL all use the same color. Colors can be changed for each group, but not for individual levels within the same group. Line Style: Users can select a global line style, choosing between solid, dashed, or dotted, for all Daily, Weekly, and Monthly levels. This style applies to all levels within those groups. For example, the Weekly Open, PWH, and PWL must all share the same line style. The Midnight Open has its own independent line style setting and can use a different style from the other key levels. Show Labels: When enabled, text labels appear to the right of each key level. Users can adjust label color, but only one label color is applied to all levels for consistency. 🔹Key Levels Used: Under the “Key Levels Used” section, users can choose which Key Levels and Session Levels (Session Highs/Lows) are factored into signal generation. Only levels enabled here are considered within the logic that confirms setups. Users can choose between the following levels: Daily Open Previous Day High/Low Weekly Open Previous Week High/Low Monthly Open Previous Month High/Low Asia Session High/Low London Session High/Low NY AM Session High/Low NY Lunch Session High/Low NY PM Session High/Low London Close Session High/Low Midnight Open For example, if you only want to see setups that form using the Daily and Weekly levels, you should only enable the Daily Open, Previous Day High/Low, Weekly Open, and Previous Week High/Low. Disabling a level in the main “Key Levels” section only hides its visuals, while disabling it in “Key Levels Used” removes it entirely from the signal logic. Adjusting or removing any level in this section directly affects how setups are detected since the indicator references these levels when confirming Long, Short, Bulltrap, and Beartrap setups. SIGNALS: The Manipulation Model indicator automatically identifies Long, Short, Bulltrap, and Beartrap setups based on the interaction between Manipulation Candles (MCs), Almost Manipulation Candles (AMCs), and two main entry conditions: Key Levels and Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). Each signal type uses the structure of a Manipulation or Almost Manipulation Candle as its foundation. When one of these candles forms and aligns with the entry conditions, the indicator automatically plots labels for an entry, stop loss (SL), and take profit (TP). Every signal follows a mechanical set of rules and is marked in real time. Once confirmed on a candle close, the signal remains fixed on the chart and does not repaint. 🔹Higher Timeframe Bias Filter Before a signal is generated, the indicator automatically determines directional bias using the 50-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) on the 1-hour timeframe. If price is above the 50 EMA, only bullish setups are allowed. If price is below the 50 EMA, only bearish setups are allowed. 🔹Stop Loss and Take Profit Logic: For every setup, the stop loss is placed at the low of the Manipulation or Almost Manipulation Candle for bullish setups, and at the high for bearish setups. The take profit is automatically calculated at a 1:1 risk-to-reward ratio relative to that distance. Users can adjust both the SL Multiplier and TP Multiplier in the settings, under the “General Configuration” section, to extend or contract these levels. For example, increasing the TP Multiplier to 1.5 sets the take profit at 1.5x the distance between the entry and stop loss. 🔹Signal Input Settings: Candle Type: Choose which candle type is used to generate signals. Options include: Manipulation Candle (MC) only Almost Manipulation Candle (AMC) only Both (signals are generated from either candle type) Entry Method: Determines whether signals are generated based on: Key Levels only Fair Value Gaps only Both (signals are generated from Key Levels AND Fair Value Gaps) Setup Types: You can enable or disable specific setup types. Only the selected setup types will appear on your chart: Long Setups Short Setups Bulltrap Setups Beartrap Setups 🔹Long Setup – Manipulation Candle + Key Level: A long setup forms when a bullish Manipulation Candle touches a toggled-on key level under the “Key Levels Used” section and closes above it during a toggled-on session from the “Sessions Used” section. After the candle closes and price is above the 1-hour 50 EMA, the indicator marks: Entry: At the close of the bullish Manipulation Candle Stop Loss: At the low of the same candle Take Profit: Equal distance above the entry, based on TP multiplier In this example, a bullish MC touches the PDH during the London Session and closes above the level: 🔹Short Setup – Manipulation Candle + Key Level A short setup forms when a bearish Manipulation Candle touches a toggled-on key level under the “Key Levels Used” section and closes below it during a toggled-on session from the “Sessions Used” section. After the candle closes and price is below the 1-hour 50 EMA, the indicator marks: Entry: At the close of the bearish Manipulation Candle Stop Loss: At the high of the same candle Take Profit: Equal distance below the entry, based on the TP Multiplier In this example, a bearish MC touches the Daily Open during the NY AM Session and closes below the level: 🔹Trap Confirmation Settings Two settings control how bulltrap and beartrap setups are confirmed once a Manipulation or Almost Manipulation Candle forms. Candles Between Confirmation: This setting defines the maximum number of candles allowed between the initial Manipulation Candle and the confirmation candle that closes back in the opposite direction. For example, if this value is set to 2, the confirmation candle must appear within two bars of the Manipulation Candle for the setup to remain valid. If too many candles form in between, the bull/bear trap setup is ignored. Trap Wick-to-Body Ratio: This input measures the ratio of the confirmation candle’s wick size to its body size for bulltrap and beartrap setups. Lower values require a larger body compared to the wick, meaning the confirmation candle must close more decisively. If the ratio is above the threshold set by the user, the confirmation candle for a bulltrap/beartrap setup is considered valid. For example, if the wick is 10 points and the body is 10 points, the ratio is 1.0 (10 / 10). If the wick is 10 points and the body is 20 points, the ratio is 0.5 (10 / 20). 🔹Beartrap Setup – Manipulation Candle + Key Level A beartrap setup forms when a bearish Manipulation Candle touches a toggled-on key level under the “Key Levels Used” section. The candle does not need to close above or below the level, it only needs to touch it. After this bearish MC forms, a confirmation candle must close back above the MC’s high during an enabled session under the “Sessions Used” section. The sweep or initial touch can occur before or outside the session, but the confirmation candle must close within an active session window. To confirm the setup, the following conditions must be met: The confirmation candle must close within the limit set by the Candles Between Confirmation input. Its wick-to-body ratio must be less than or equal to the Trap Wick-to-Body Ratio input Once these conditions are met and price is above the 1-hour 50 EMA, the indicator marks: Entry: At the close of the confirmation candle Stop Loss: At the low of the confirmation candle Take Profit: Equal distance above the entry, measured 1:1 from the candle’s body and scaled by the TP Multiplier In this example, a bearish Manipulation Candle touches the Daily Open level before price reverses and a confirmation candle closes above it. The confirmation candle occurs during the Asia Session, has a strong body with minimal wicks, meeting the Trap Wick-to-Body Ratio requirement, and it forms just two candles after the bearish MC which is within the limit set by the Candles Between Confirmation input. 🔹Bulltrap Setup – Manipulation Candle + Key Level A bulltrap setup forms when a bullish Manipulation Candle touches a toggled-on key level under the “Key Levels Used” section. The MC does not need to close above or below the level, it only needs to touch it. After this bullish MC forms, a confirmation candle must close back below the MC’s low during an enabled session under the “Sessions Used” section. The initial key level touch from the MC can occur before or outside the session, but the confirmation candle must close within an active session window. To confirm the setup, the following conditions must be met: The confirmation candle must close within the limit set by the Candles Between Confirmation input. Its wick-to-body ratio must be less than or equal to the Trap Wick-to-Body Ratio input. Once these conditions are met and price is below the 1-hour 50 EMA, the indicator marks: Entry: At the close of the confirmation candle Stop Loss: At the high of the confirmation candle Take Profit: Equal distance below the entry, measured 1:1 from the candle’s body and scaled by the TP Multiplier In this example, a bullish Manipulation Candle touches the Daily Open level before price reverses and a confirmation candle closes below it. The confirmation candle forms during the NY AM Session, has a strong body with minimal wicks that meet the Trap Wick-to-Body Ratio requirement, and it appears two candles after the bullish MC which is within the limit defined by the Candles Between Confirmation input. 🔹Long Setup – Almost Manipulation Candle + Key Level A long setup forms when a bullish Almost Manipulation Candle (AMC) touches a toggled-on key level under the “Key Levels Used” section and closes above it during a toggled-on session from the “Sessions Used” section. After the candle closes and price is above the 1-hour 50 EMA, the indicator marks: Entry: At the close of the bullish Almost Manipulation Candle Stop Loss: At the low of the same candle Take Profit: Equal distance above the entry, based on the TP Multiplier In this example, a bullish AMC touches the Daily Open during the NYSE Session and closes above the level. 🔹Short Setup – Almost Manipulation Candle + Key Level A short setup forms when a bearish Almost Manipulation Candle (AMC) touches a toggled-on key level under the “Key Levels Used” section and closes below it during a toggled-on session from the “Sessions Used” section. After the candle closes and price is below the 1-hour 50 EMA, the indicator marks: Entry: At the close of the bearish Almost Manipulation Candle Stop Loss: At the high of the same candle Take Profit: Equal distance below the entry, based on the TP Multiplier In this example, a bearish AMC touches the Midnight Open during the NY AM Session and closes below the level. 🔹Beartrap Setup – Almost Manipulation Candle + Key Level A beartrap setup forms when a bearish Almost Manipulation Candle (AMC) touches a toggled-on key level under the “Key Levels Used” section.

Label Colors: Users can customize the label color for Long Setups (Long and Beartrap) and Short Setups (Short and Bulltrap). Long and Beartrap setups share the same label color. Short and Bulltrap setups share the same label color. Label text color can also be customized and applied globally to all signal labels. Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) Labels: The SL and TP label colors can be customized independently. Users can toggle SL Labels and TP Labels on or off. When turned off, the corresponding labels are hidden, but their levels remain active on the chart. Entry, Stop Loss, and Take Profit Lines: Each of these lines can be individually toggled on or off. Entry Line: Marks the entry price level. Stop Loss Line: Displays the SL level derived from each setup’s logic. Take Profit Line: Displays the TP level calculated using the Take Profit Multiplier setting. Users can also toggle the labels for each line on or off and adjust the color for each line type independently. WIN RATE DASHBOARD: The Win Rate Dashboard gives traders a quick way to see the recent performance of their enabled setups. It automatically calculates and displays win rates for each signal type turned on under the “General Configuration” section, based on the sessions and key levels currently active in the settings. The dashboard updates in real time, showing both the win rate percentage and total trade count for all enabled signal types combined. It looks back at a set number of bars to calculate results, providing a simple performance snapshot directly on your chart. How It Works: When a signal triggers, the indicator tracks whether price first reaches the Take Profit (TP) or Stop Loss (SL) level. A winning trade is recorded when the take profit is hit before the stop loss. A losing trade is recorded when the stop loss is hit before the take profit. The win rate = (Winning Trades / Total Trades) x 100 🔹Dashboard Customization: Users can adjust the dashboard’s appearance with the following settings: Background Color Frame Color Border Color Text Color You can also toggle the dashboard on or off from the settings menu. It appears in the top-right corner of the chart by default and its position cannot be changed. 🔹Disclaimer: The Win Rate Dashboard provides historical performance data based on the signals and conditions you’ve enabled. These results are calculated from past bars and are not indicative of future performance or profitability. ALERTS: The Manipulation Model indicator includes full alert functionality powered by AnyAlert(), allowing users to receive notifications for all major setups and level breaks in real time. Users can choose exactly which alerts they want to receive under the “Alerts” section of the settings. Once your preferred alerts are toggled on, you can create a TradingView alert using the AnyAlert() condition. This will automatically trigger alerts for all selected events as they occur on your chart. Available Alerts: Long Setup Short Setup Bulltrap Setup Beartrap Setup Manipulation Candle Almost Manipulation Candle Previous Day High/Low Break Current Day Open Break Previous Week High/Low Break Current Week Open Break Previous Month High/Low Break Current Month Open Break Asia Session High/Low Break London Session High/Low Break NY AM Session High/Low Break NYSE Session High/Low Break London Close Session High/Low Break NY PM Session High/Low Break Midnight Open Break To receive alerts: Open the alert creation window in TradingView Select “Manipulation Model ” as the condition Choose AnyAlert() from the dropdown Create the alert IMPORTANT NOTES: TradingView has limitations when running features on multiple timeframes, which can result in the following restriction: Computation Error: The computation of using MTF features is very intensive on TradingView. This can sometimes cause calculation timeouts. When this occurs, simply force the recalculation by modifying one indicator’s settings or by removing the indicator and adding it to your chart again. UNIQUENESS: The Manipulation Model is unique because every setup type is fully rule-based and tied to strict structural logic. Traders can control exactly how signals form by selecting which candle types are used, which key levels and sessions are active, and whether entries trigger from Key Levels, Fair Value Gaps, or both. All setups use objective rules for confirmation, wick-to-body ratio, and higher timeframe bias. The indicator also provides full customization for visuals, alerts, and trade parameters like TP and SL multipliers. A built-in Win Rate Dashboard tracks real-time performance for all enabled setup types based on the user’s active sessions and signal filters. Together, these features make it a complete, mechanical implementation of the Funded Brothers Manipulation Model and it works across all asset classes including stocks, crypto, forex, and futures.

VWAP Wave System ToolkitGENERAL OVERVIEW: The VWAP Wave System Toolkit is an all-in-one trading indicator based on rules from Auction Market Theory. The indicator is built around Volume-Weighted Average Prices (VWAP), Initial Balance (IB) levels, session/composite volume profiles, low-volume zones, optional candle coloring, trade checklists, dashboard readings, and a watermark. This indicator was developed by Flux Charts in collaboration with Chris Drysdale (Trader Drysdale), author of the best-selling book VWAP Wave System. What’s the purpose of this indicator? The VWAP Wave System Toolkit helps traders see where market value is forming, shifting, or being rejected across different timeframes. It’s built on the ideas of Auction Market Theory, which views the market as a continuous auction between buyers and sellers searching for fair value. The indicator combines VWAPs, Initial Balance levels, and volume profiles into one system that shows how price interacts with value throughout the day, week, and month. By combining short-term and higher-timeframe data, it helps traders understand when the market is balanced and when it’s starting to discover new price areas. What’s the theory behind this indicator? This indicator is built on Auction Market Theory, introduced by J. Peter Steidlmayer. The theory says that markets operate as continuous auctions, constantly seeking a fair price where buyers and sellers agree on value. When price stays within a narrow range and volume builds up, the market is balanced around a value area. When price moves away from that area, the market enters price discovery, searching for a new zone of balance. VWAPs represent an evolving measure of value, while Volume Profiles and Initial Balance visualize how the auction developed during each session. Low Volume Zones often show where the market moved too quickly to trade efficiently, making them potential areas of interest for future reactions. By combining these elements, the indicator provides a picture of how the market is auctioning and where value may shift next. VWAP WAVE SYSTEM TOOLKIT FEATURES: The VWAP Wave System Toolkit indicator includes 7 main features: Initial Balance Levels Multi-Timeframe VWAPs Session Volume Profile Composite Volume Profile Low Volume Zones Checklist Watermark Initial Balance Levels: 🔹What is the Initial Balance? The Initial Balance (IB) is defined by the high and low prices that form within a specific time window. Typically, this time window is the first hour after the regular day trading session starts (09:30 - 10:30 AM EST). The high and low formed during this window create the foundation for the day’s price structure. From these two points, the indicator automatically calculates several key reference levels that show how far price has extended beyond the initial range or where it may still be balanced. Understanding how these levels are derived and how to interpret them is essential to using the Initial Balance effectively. 🔹How Initial Balance Levels are calculated: Once the IB window closes, the indicator plots a full set of reference levels derived from the IB range. These levels are: IB High IB Low IB Midpoint x2 High / x2 Low x2 Midpoints (x1.5 High/Low) x3 High / x3 Low x3 Midpoints (x2.5 High/Low) 🔹IB High & IB Low The IB High is the highest price reached during the IB session window, and the IB Low is the lowest price reached. 🔹IB Midpoint The IB Midpoint is the average of the IB High and IB Low. 🔹x2 High & x2 Low The x2 levels are calculated by projecting one full IB Range above and below the Initial Balance. The IB Range is the distance between the IB High and IB Low. 🔹x2 High Midpoint & x2 Low Midpoint The x2 High Midpoint (x1.5 High) is the average of the IB High and x2 High. The x2 Low Midpoint (x1.5 Low) is the average of the IB Low and x2 Low. 🔹x3 High & x3 Low The x3 High/Low levels are calculated by projecting two full IB Range above and below the Initial Balance. 🔹x3 High Midpoint & x3 Low Midpoint The x3 High Midpoint (x2.5 High) is the average of the x2 High and x3 High. The x3 Low Midpoint (x2.5 Low) is the average of the x2 Low and x3 Low. 🔹Breaks & Retests: For every Initial Balance level, the indicator automatically tracks when price retests or breaks through them. A Break occurs when a candle closes above or below an IB level. When this happens, the indicator plots a small blue triangle. A Retest occurs when price approaches and touches an IB Level, and then reverses in the opposite direction. When this happens, the indicator plots a small green or red triangle. Green Triangle: Bullish Retest - Price comes down to a level, touches it, and continues up. Red Triangle: Bearish Retest - Price comes up to a level, touches it, and continues down. Both breaks and retests are plotted directly on the chart for every toggled IB level. Once detected, they remain fixed and are not repainted. Other Settings: 🔹Shade IB Range When enabled, this setting fills the area between the IB High and IB Low (IB Range). The fill helps visually separate the Initial Balance range from the rest of the session, making it easier to identify when price is trading inside or outside of the IB. The color and opacity can also be adjusted through the settings. 🔹Apply One Color When this setting is enabled, all toggled IB levels use the same color instead of the user’s inputted colors. 🔹Levels Labels When enabled, text labels that identify each IB level (for example, “IB High,” “x2 High,” or “x2.5 Low”) appear next to each level. 🔹Price Labels When enabled, the indicator displays the real-time price value of each IB level directly on the chart. These labels update automatically as price changes or when the levels shift due to recalculation from a new session. 🔹Extend Levels Right When enabled, all toggled IB Levels will be extended infinitely to the right of the chart. 🔹Align Text Right This setting aligns all level and price labels to the right edge of the plotted line. When disabled, text labels will be aligned to the left edge of each level. Multi-Timeframe VWAPs: 🔹Why does this indicator include VWAPs? This indicator includes VWAPs because they show where the most trading activity has occurred within each timeframe, helping identify the market’s fair value area. According to Auction Market Theory, price moves between periods of balance and imbalance as buyers and sellers seek fair value. VWAPs represent those balance points where the majority of trading has taken place. By plotting the Intraday, Weekly, and Monthly VWAPs, the indicator shows how value shifts across different timeframes and whether the market is balanced or moving toward a new area of value. 🔹Intraday VWAP The Intraday VWAP measures the average traded price for the current trading session and resets each day at market open. It shows where most of the session’s trading has taken place, acting as a real-time fair value line. When price trades near the Intraday VWAP, the market is considered balanced. When price moves far above or below it, the market is exploring new value areas. 🔹Candle Coloring: The Intraday VWAP candle coloring highlights how far price is trading from the session’s average value using the first and second standard deviation bands as visual reference zones. This feature helps users see whether price is balanced around fair value or expanding into an overextended area. When candle coloring is enabled, each candle’s color changes based on where it closes relative to the two standard deviation bands surrounding the Intraday VWAP. The first band represents one standard deviation (1.0 STD) and the second represents one and a half standard deviations (1.5 STD). If a candle closes above the upper 1.5 standard deviation band, it is colored a brighter green, showing strong movement above fair value. Candles closing between the upper 1.0 and 1.5 standard deviation bands are a lighter green, showing moderate strength. If a candle closes below the lower 1.5 standard deviation band, it is colored a brighter red, showing strong movement below fair value. Candles closing between the lower 1.0 and 1.5 standard deviation bands are a lighter red, showing moderate weakness. Candles that close within the ±1.0 standard deviation range remain their normal color, showing that price is balanced near the session’s average. Both the VWAP line and its bands can be customized in the Intraday VWAP settings. Users can adjust the VWAP line color, band colors, and fill transparency. The candle colors can also be modified. The band sizes (1.0 STD and 1.5 STD by default) can be changed through their input multipliers, allowing users to control the sensitivity of the zones. Please Note: This candle coloring applies only to the Intraday VWAP 🔹Weekly VWAP The Weekly VWAP measures the average traded price across the current trading week and resets at the start of each new week. It reflects the fair value area that has developed over multiple trading days, providing a broader view of market balance compared to the Intraday VWAP. When price stays close to the Weekly VWAP, it indicates that the week’s trading activity is balanced. When price consistently trades above or below it, the market is moving away from that balance and forming value in a new area. Standard Deviation Bands: The Weekly VWAP includes optional standard deviation bands. Users can toggle 1x and 1.5x STD bands. Users can also adjust the multipliers. Customization: All colors for the Weekly VWAP and its standard deviation bands can be changed in the indicator’s settings. Users can adjust the VWAP line color, band colors, and fill transparency. 🔹Monthly VWAP The Monthly VWAP measures the average traded price for the current month and resets on the first trading day of each new month. It provides the broadest view of value within this indicator, showing where the majority of trading has occurred during the current month. When price remains near the Monthly VWAP, it reflects long-term balance. Standard Deviation Bands: The Monthly VWAP includes optional 1x and 1.5x standard deviation bands that can be enabled or disabled. In the settings, users can adjust the standard deviation multipliers. Customization: The Monthly VWAP line, band colors, and fill transparency can all be modified in the indicator’s settings. 🔹VWAP Dashboard The VWAP Dashboard provides a quick real-time overview of how price is positioned relative to the Intraday, Weekly, and Monthly VWAPs. It is displayed directly on the chart and updates automatically with each new candle. The dashboard is divided into five labeled sections: Intraday Weekly Monthly Weekly STD Monthly STD Intraday, Weekly, and Monthly Sections: These three sections show whether price is currently trading Above or Below each VWAP. If price is above a VWAP, that section displays “Bullish” If price is below a VWAP, that section displays “Bearish” Weekly STD and Monthly STD: These sections display whether price is currently inside or outside the standard deviation bands of the Weekly and Monthly VWAPs. When price is trading within the ±1.0 standard deviation zone, the dashboard output is “Balanced Market” When price is above the upper standard deviation, price is extending up beyond the week’s or month’s fair value, and the dashboard output is “Bullish Price Discovery” When price is below the lower standard deviation, price is extending down beyond the week’s or month’s fair value, and the dashboard output is “Bearish Price Discovery” 🔹What is a Balanced Market A balanced market occurs when price is trading within the ±1.0 standard deviation range of a VWAP. This shows that buyers and sellers are in general agreement on value, and trading activity is taking place around the fair value area. In this state, price tends to rotate around the VWAP rather than trend strongly away from it. Balance reflects stability in the auction process, where neither side is dominant and value is being built at current prices. 🔹What is Bullish Price Discovery Bullish Price Discovery occurs when price trades above the upper standard deviation of a VWAP. This indicates that buyers are accepting higher prices and that value may be shifting upward. In terms of Auction Market Theory, the market is moving away from balance as it searches for a new fair value area above the prior range. 🔹What is Bearish Price Discovery Bearish Price Discovery occurs when price trades below the lower standard deviation of a VWAP. This shows that sellers are accepting lower prices and that value may be developing beneath the prior area of balance. The market is moving out of equilibrium as participants test lower prices to find new fair value. Session Volume Profile: 🔹Why this feature is included: The Session Volume Profile is included to show where trading activity occurred within each session. It visually represents the volume traded at each price, helping to identify where market participants considered value to be. This ties directly to Auction Market Theory, which views markets as auctions seeking balance between buyers and sellers. The profile highlights those balance areas and shows where volume thins out, helping distinguish between value areas and areas of rejection. 🔹How is the Session Volume Profile calculated and displayed: At the start of each selected session window, the indicator creates a new volume profile and tracks every bar in that session. For each candle, it saves the high, low, open, close, volume, and time. When the HD (High Definition) setting is enabled, and your chart is between the 1-minute and 30-minute timeframes (recommended), the indicator requests lower-timeframe data and feeds the profile with 1-minute candlesticks for more detail. The running session high and low define the vertical bounds of the volume profile. That span is split into a fixed number of rows. Each row represents a price slice. For every bar and every price row, the indicator checks whether the bar’s high-low range touches that row. If it does, it adds part of the bar’s volume to that row. The allocation uses a step-to-bar-size ratio, so that narrow bars do not overload a tall row and tall bars contribute proportionally across all rows they cross. If the bar closes above its open, that row’s “up” volume bucket is incremented. If it closes below its open, the “down” bucket is incremented. After all bars are processed, the row with the highest total becomes the Point of Control (POC). Starting from that row, the indicator expands upward and downward, adding adjacent rows until the cumulative total reaches your Value Area percentage. The upper boundary is Value Area High (VAH), and the lower boundary is Value Area Low (VAL). For rendering, each price row becomes a horizontal box drawn from the session start time to a length proportional to that row’s volume versus the session’s maximum row volume. If you choose “Up / Down” volume, the row is split into two adjoining boxes that show the up and down portions. If you choose “Total,” a single box is drawn to the total length. If you choose “Delta,” the length reflects the absolute difference between up and down. The POC is drawn as a line across the row midpoint. VAH and VAL are drawn at the exact prices of the top and bottom value rows. While a session is open the profile keeps updating as new bars form. When the session ends, the script fixes its start and end and stops changing that profile. To avoid any issues with drawing limits, the indicator only renders the two most recent session volume profiles. Settings: 🔹Enabled Turns the Session Volume Profile on or off. When disabled, no session profiles, lines, or volume boxes are displayed. 🔹HD Stands for High Definition. When enabled, the indicator requests data from the 1-minute timeframe to build a smoother, more detailed volume profile. This produces finer row distribution and more accurate POC, VAH, and VAL positioning, especially on higher chart timeframes. 🔹POC Line Toggles the visibility of the Point of Control line. The POC represents the price level with the highest traded volume in the session. It’s drawn horizontally across the chart at that price, and its color can be customized in settings. 🔹VAH Controls the display of the Value Area High line. The VAH is the top boundary of the range that contains the specified percentage of total traded volume (default 70%). It marks where volume starts to thin out above fair value. Users can turn it on or off and customize its color. 🔹VAL Controls the display of the Value Area Low line. The VAL is the lower boundary of the value area and marks where volume thins out below fair value. Its visibility and color can also be customized. 🔹Session This setting allows users to define the start and end time of the trading session used to calculate the session volume profile. Only bars within this time window are included in the volume profile. When a session ends, the volume profile locks, and a new one begins automatically when the next session begins based on the user’s input. 🔹Volume Controls how the histogram rows are displayed: Up/Down: Splits each price row into two parts: one for bullish candles (Up volume) and one for bearish candles (Down volume). This helps visualize buying versus selling pressure at each price. Total: Combines both Up and Down volume into a single-colored bar for each price level. Since direction isn’t separated, this view focuses purely on where trading activity was concentrated, regardless of which side was in control. A tall bar means strong participation and interest at that price. Delta: Displays the difference between up and down volume (Up/Down) for each row, highlighting which side controlled that price area. 🔹Value Area Volume The Value Area Volume setting defines how much of the total session volume is considered the “value area.” By default, it’s 70%, meaning the indicator finds the price range where 70% of all trading took place during that session. This area is where buyers and sellers agreed the most on price, also known as the fair value zone. If you increase the percentage (for example, to 80%), the value area becomes wider and includes more of the session’s trading range. Lowering it (for example, to 60%) makes it narrower, focusing only on the prices with the heaviest activity. 🔹Row Size The Row Size controls how detailed the volume profile looks. It decides how many price levels (rows) the profile is divided into. Smaller values make the profile smoother and easier to read but less precise. Larger values add more detail and show exactly where volume clustered, but they can make the profile look denser. The maximum value is 450 rows, and the minimum value is 5 rows. Higher values (especially above 200) can make the volume profile appear more detailed but may also cause performance issues or partial rendering on TradingView charts due to the platform’s drawing object limits. For most users, values between 50–150 give a good balance between clarity and performance. 25 Rows vs. 200 Rows: Composite Volume Profile: The Composite Volume Profile shows how volume is distributed across a larger selected range instead of just one session. It helps traders see where the most trading activity has taken place over multiple days. This gives a picture of long-term balance areas and important price zones that have repeatedly attracted buyers and sellers. The Composite Profile uses the same base logic and visual settings as the Session Volume Profile, including POC Line, VAH, VAL, Volume Type, Value Area Volume, Row Size, and Colors. Any customization applied to those settings also affects the Composite Profile, ensuring a consistent appearance across both features. 🔹Session Count Setting: This setting controls how many past sessions are merged into one composite volume profile. For example, if the Session Count is set to 5, and each session represents one trading day, the profile combines data from the last 5 trading days. A “session” refers to the time window defined in the Session Volume Profile settings. 🔹How is the Composite Volume Profile used? In Auction Market Theory, markets move through phases of balance and imbalance as traders agree on value before moving to explore new ones. The Composite Volume Profile shows where that long-term balance has formed. Large, wide areas on the profile indicate zones where multiple sessions agreed on value. Thin areas show prices that were quickly rejected, where less time and volume were traded. Combining short-term session profiles into a composite helps identify when the market is holding near established value or entering new price discovery, confirming transitions between balance and price discovery. Low Volume Zones: 🔹What are Low Volume Zones? Low Volume Zones (LVZs) are price areas where trading activity was minimal compared to surrounding levels. On a volume profile, they appear as thin “valleys” between two high-volume “peaks.” These valleys show where the market moved too quickly for significant two-way trade to occur. In Auction Market Theory, they represent inefficient areas, meaning the market didn’t find fair value, so price either skipped through or rejected those levels. 🔹How are Low Volume Zones found? The indicator identifies Low Volume Zones (LVZs) directly from Session Volume Profiles (SVPs) by analyzing the shape of its volume distribution. Each SVP is built from a series of horizontal rows, where each row represents the total traded volume within a narrow price range. The longer the row, the higher the trading activity at that price. The indicator first locates the two largest high-volume peaks on the profile. These peaks represent the strongest areas of market activity. Once these two main peaks are found, the indicator looks on both sides of each peak for the lowest-volume row in the surrounding area. Those small-volume dips define the boundaries of the Low Volume Zones. Each high-volume peak can therefore generate two LVZs (one above and one below it), resulting in a maximum of four Low Volume Zones per volume profile. If two LVZs overlap or share the same price range, they are automatically merged into a single larger zone, which may reduce the total count to three or fewer. 🔹How are Low Volume Zones used? Low Volume Zones (LVZs) mark areas where the market previously traded with little participation. In Auction Market Theory, these zones represent inefficient price areas where buyers and sellers failed to agree on value. When price returns to an LVZ, it may act as an area where price tends to react differently due to lower previous trading activity. If the market still sees that area as unfair, price will reject it and reverse quickly. If the market now accepts that price level, volume builds and price moves through it smoothly as the auction seeks new balance. Traders use LVZs to identify where price may react sharply or move quickly through thin areas. When price approaches a zone from above or below, it signals potential rejection or continuation. 🔹LVZ Breaks and Retests The indicator automatically tracks how price interacts with every detected LVZ. A Break occurs when price fully moves through the entire LVZ and closes past it. When this happens, the indicator plots a small blue triangle. A Retest occurs when price touches an LVZ and reverses away, showing rejection. When price comes down to a level, taps it, and continues up, it’s considered a bullish retest, and a small green triangle is plotted. When price comes up to a level, taps it, and continues down, it’s considered a bearish retest, and a small red triangle is plotted. 🔹LVZ Settings Enabled: Toggles LVZ detection and visualization on or off. Realtime: Allows LVZs to form dynamically as the current session develops, updating live as volume builds or thins out. When disabled, zones only appear once the session closes. Please note: When this setting is enabled, zones may update or shift while the current session is still forming. Because the Session Volume Profile is continuously recalculating with new data, both the volume distribution and detected zones can change until the session closes. Row Pivot Length: Controls how far above and below each price row the indicator looks when identifying the highest and lowest volume points that define each Low Volume Zone. Larger values make the indicator compare a wider range of rows, while smaller values keep the analysis closer to each row’s immediate area. Last SVPs: Defines how many recent Session Volume Profiles are used for LVZs. For example, setting it to 3 limits LVZ detection to the last three sessions only. Retests and Breaks: Enables or disables the display of the retest and break markers described above. Checklist: The Checklist is a manual on-chart dashboard that allows traders to keep track of specific market conditions before entering a trade. Each checklist item can be toggled on or off in the indicator’s settings. When enabled, a checkmark emoji appears next to that item on the dashboard. When disabled, an X emoji appears next to that item. This feature is designed to help traders visually confirm important steps in their process, such as reviewing trend direction, VWAP alignment, or session context. The checklist can also be repositioned anywhere on the chart using the “Location” setting for better visibility and layout preference. Watermark: The Watermark feature displays key chart information directly in the background, including the current ticker symbol, selected timeframe, and date. The watermark’s size, color, and transparency can be adjusted in the settings. UNIQUENESS: The VWAP Wave System Toolkit is unique because it brings every part of Auction Market Theory to the chart. It shows how value builds and shifts by combining Initial Balance levels, multi-timeframe VWAPs, and volume profiles. The indicator automatically marks low-volume zones where the market moved too quickly, highlights breaks and retests, and tracks how price interacts with fair value across sessions, weeks, and months. Every feature works together to give a simple view of balance, imbalance, and value development as the auction unfolds.

OverBought & OverSold [SwissAlgo]OverBought & OverSold Statistical analysis of momentum extremes ---------------------------------------------------------- Purpose This indicator was built to answer three questions: Is the current price move statistically extreme? - By comparing current momentum to historical distribution What is the current market regime? - By combining trend position and momentum direction Is momentum accelerating or decelerating? - By analyzing weekly momentum shifts ---------------------------------------------------------- What You Can Do With This Indicator Identify Statistical Extremes See when price momentum seems to have reached levels that historically preceded reversals Compare the current Rate of Change to its historical mean and standard deviation Spot when readings exceed ±1σ, ±2σ, or higher thresholds Monitor Market Regime/State Track whether the market seems to be in BULL, WEAK BULL, BEAR, or WEAK BEAR state Observe potential transitions between regimes as they occur Understand the relationship between price position and momentum Assess Momentum Quality Distinguish between potentially accelerating momentum (lime/red bars) and decelerating momentum (green/maroon bars) Watch for possible momentum deterioration within established trends Track weekly momentum patterns that filter out daily noise Measure Distance from Trend Monitor how far the price is from its long-term moving average (EMA 350) Identify when price approaches trend support/resistance Contextualize current position relative to historical distance patterns ---------------------------------------------------------- Overview This indicator calculates a volume-weighted Rate of Change (ROC) and displays it with statistical Z-Score bands. It combines ROC analysis with market regime detection using weekly MACD and EMA positioning. Key Features Volume-weighted ROC calculation with 5-bar smoothing Dynamic Z-Score bands (±0.5σ to ±6σ) Four-state market regime classification Weekly Stochastic RSI-based histogram coloring Visual markers for extreme readings Information table with current statistics Calculations Volume-Weighted ROC The indicator compares two 5-bar volume-weighted average prices separated by the ROC Length period: Recent VWAP = Σ(Price × Volume) / Σ(Volume) for last 5 bars Past VWAP = Σ(Price × Volume) / Σ(Volume) for 5 bars at lookback ROC = ((Recent VWAP - Past VWAP) / Past VWAP) × 100 Default ROC Length: 30 periods Why volume-weighted: Single price points can be affected by temporary spikes Volume weighting emphasizes legitimate price moves 5-bar averaging reduces single-bar noise Z-Score Bands The indicator maintains separate statistical distributions for positive and negative ROC values: For positive ROC values: Calculates mean and standard deviation of all positive ROC readings Plots bands at +0.5σ, +1σ, +2σ, +3σ, +4σ, +5σ, +6σ above the mean For negative ROC values: Calculates mean and standard deviation of all negative ROC readings Plots bands at -0.5σ, -1σ, -2σ, -3σ, -4σ, -5σ, -6σ below the mean Z-Score formula: If ROC > 0: Z = (ROC - Positive Mean) / Positive Std Dev If ROC < 0: Z = (ROC - Negative Mean) / Negative Std Dev Why separate distributions: Upward and downward momentum often have different statistical properties Separate analysis provides more accurate extreme identification Each side maintains its own mean and volatility characteristics The ±1σ bands use thicker lines (linewidth=2) as these levels are most frequently tested. Market Regime States Four states based on weekly MACD (10, 24, 8) and EMA 350: BULL Conditions: Price > EMA 350, Weekly MACD > 0, MACD > Signal, ROC histogram lime Background: Lime (85% transparency) Interpretation: Price above long-term trend with accelerating momentum WEAK BULL Conditions: Price > EMA 350 AND (MACD < Signal OR ROC histogram green) Background: Green (95% transparency) Interpretation: Price above trend, but momentum seems to be decelerating BEAR Conditions: Price < EMA 350, Weekly MACD < 0, MACD < Signal, ROC histogram red Background: Red (85% transparency) Interpretation: Price below long-term trend with accelerating downward momentum WEAK BEAR Conditions: Price < EMA 350 AND (MACD > Signal OR ROC histogram maroon) Background: Maroon (95% transparency) Interpretation: Price below trend, but downward momentum seems to be decelerating NEUTRAL Conditions: None of the above met Background: Gray (95% transparency) Interpretation: Transitional state between regimes Why weekly MACD: Filters daily volatility and noise Provides more stable regime classification Reduces false regime switches Histogram Colors Colors determined by Weekly Stochastic RSI (14, 14, 3, 3): Lime: ROC > 0 and K > D (rising positive momentum) Green: ROC > 0 and K < D (falling positive momentum) Red: ROC < 0 and K < D (falling negative momentum) Maroon: ROC < 0 and K > D (rising negative momentum) Why weekly Stochastic RSI: Shows momentum direction independent of absolute level Weekly timeframe provides stable readings K/D crossover indicates momentum shifts Visual Markers Red arrows (↓): Display when ROC ≥ +1σ (overbought zone) Lime arrows (↑): Display when ROC ≤ -0.5σ (oversold zone) These markers highlight when readings reach statistical extremes. Information Table Located at the top-right, displays four rows: Row 1 - Market State Shows current regime text (BULL/WEAK BULL/BEAR/WEAK BEAR/NEUTRAL) Color matches regime state Row 2 - Current Z-Score Shows Z-Score value with 2 decimal places Lime when Z ≤ -0.5 (statistically oversold) Red when Z ≥ +1 (statistically overbought) White for values between -0.5 and +1 (normal range) Adds bullet (●) for extreme values Row 3 - Price ROC % Shows current ROC percentage Lime when positive Red when negative Row 4 - Distance % EMA Shows percentage distance from EMA 350 Calculates Z-score of distance Red with ● when close to EMA in bull market (|Z| < 0.5) Lime with ● when close to EMA in bear market (|Z| < 0.5) Standard colors otherwise (lime when above EMA, red when below) Why distance matters: A price approaching EMA 350 in a bull market can signal a support test Price near EMA 350 in a bear market can signal a resistance test Z-score of distance shows if the current proximity is statistically unusual ---------------------------------------------------------- Settings ROC Length (Integer, default: 30, minimum: 1) Number of periods for ROC lookback Higher values = slower response, smoother Lower values = faster response, more sensitive Source (Source, default: close) Price data input for calculations Can use close, open, high, low, hl2, hlc3, ohlc4 Show Info Table (Boolean, default: true) Toggle table visibility ---------------------------------------------------------- Technical Details Uses lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off for all request.security() calls Accumulates all historical ROC values in arrays for Z-Score calculation Weekly timeframe data retrieved via request.security() on "1W" resolution EMA length hardcoded to 350 periods All plots use Pine Script v6 syntax Data Requirements Minimum bars required: ROC Length + 5 bars Works on any timeframe Applicable to any instrument with volume data Historical data used: All available bars on the chart Display Elements Plots: ROC histogram (plotcandle format) Zero line (horizontal line) 14 standard deviation lines (7 positive, 7 negative) 13 filled regions between bands 14 sigma labels (displayed on last bar only) Extreme zone markers (arrows) Color Scheme: Positive bands: Lime with varying transparency Negative bands: Red with varying transparency Fills: Green (positive) and Red (negative) with high transparency Bands beyond 3σ use increased transparency (85%, 90%, 93%) Visual Hierarchy ±1σ bands: Thicker lines (most important levels) ±0.5σ to ±3σ: Standard visibility ±4σ to ±6σ: Faded (visible only during extreme events) Notes This is an oscillator-type indicator (overlay=false) Displays in a separate pane below the price chart Does not generate automatic buy/sell signals Does not include alert conditions Does not repaint (all calculations use confirmed data) Limitations Requires sufficient historical data for meaningful statistics Z-Score bands recalculate as new data accumulates Market regime requires weekly MACD calculation (may show neutral on insufficient data) Volume-weighting requires volume data availability EMA 350 is fixed (not adjustable via inputs) Statistical extremes do not guarantee reversals Past distribution patterns do not predict future behavior ---------------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer Educational Purpose Only This indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only.

CMC Macro Regime PanelOverview (what it is): A macro‑regime gate built entirely from TradingView-native symbols (CRYPTOCAP, FRED, DXY/VIX, HYG/LQD). It aggregates central‑bank liquidity (Fed balance sheet − RRP − Treasury General Account), USD strength, credit conditions, stablecoin flows/dominance, tech beta and BTC–NDX co‑move into one normalized score (CLRC). The panel outputs Risk‑ON/OFF regimes, an Early 3/5 pre‑signal, and an automatic BTC vs ETH vs ALTs preference. It is intentionally scoped to Daily & Weekly reads (no intraday timing). Publish with a clean chart and a clear description as per TradingView rules. TradingView Why we also use other TradingView screens (and why that is compliant) This script pulls data via request.security() from official TV symbols only; users often want to open the raw series on separate charts to sanity‑check: CRYPTOCAP indices: TOTAL, TOTAL2, TOTAL3 (market cap aggregates) and dominance tickers like BTC.D, USDT.D.

TradingView +2 TradingView +2 Compliance note: Using multiple screens is optional for users, but it explains/justifies how components work together (a requirement for public scripts). Keep publication chart clean; use extra screens only to illustrate in the description. TradingView How it works (high level) Liquidity block (Weekly/Monthly) Net Liquidity = WALCL − RRPONTSYD − WTREGEN (YoY z‑score). WALCL is weekly (as of Wednesday) via H.4.1; RRP is daily; TGA is a Fed liability series. M2 YoY is monthly.

TradingView +2 TradingView +2 What you see on the chart White line (CLRC) = macro regime score. Background: Green = Risk‑ON, Red = Risk‑OFF, Teal = Early 3/5 (pre‑signal). Table: shows each component’s z‑score and the Preference: BTC / ETH / ALTs / Mixed. Signals & interpretation Designed for Daily (1D) and Weekly (1W) only. Regime gates (default Fast preset): Enter ON: CLRC ≥ +0.8; Hold ON while ≥ +0.5. Enter OFF: CLRC ≤ −1.0; Hold OFF while ≤ −0.5. 0 / ±1 reading: CLRC is a standardized composite. ~0 = neutral baseline (no macro edge). ≥ +1 = strong macro tailwind (≈ +1σ). ≤ −1 = strong headwind (≈ −1σ). Early 3/5 (teal): a fast pre‑signal when at least 3 of 5 daily checks align: USDT.D↓, DXY↓, VIX↓, HYG/LQD↑, ETHBTC↑ or TOTAL3↑. It often precedes a full ON flip—use for pre‑positioning rather than full sizing. BTC/ETH/ALTs selector (only when ON): ALTs when BTC.D↓ and (ETHBTC↑ or TOTAL3↑) ⇒ rotate down the risk curve. BTC when BTC.D↑ and ETHBTC↓ ⇒ keep it concentrated. ETH when ETHBTC↑ while BTC.D flat/up ⇒ add ETH beta. (Dominance mechanics are documented by TV.) TradingView Dissonance (incompatibility) rules — when to stand down Use these overrides to avoid false comfort: CLRC > +1 but USDT.D↑ and/or VIX spikes day‑over‑day → downgrade to Neutral; wait for USDT.D to stabilize and VIX to cool (VIX is a fear gauge of 30‑day expectation). Cboe Global Markets CLRC > +1 but DXY↑ sharply (USD squeeze) → size below normal; require DXY momentum to roll over. CLRC < −1 but Early 3/5 = true two days in a row → start reducing underweights; look for ON flip within a few bars. NetLiq improving (W) but credit (HYG/LQD) deteriorating (D) → treat as mixed regime; prefer BTC over ALTs. How to use (step‑by‑step) A. Read on Daily (1D) — main regime Open CRYPTOCAP:TOTAL3, 1D (panel applied). Wait for bar close (use alerts on confirmed bar). Pine docs recommend barstate.isconfirmed to avoid repainting on realtime bars. TradingView If ON, check Preference (BTC / ETH / ALTs). Then drop to 4H on your trading pair for micro entries (this indicator itself is not for intraday timing). B. Confirm weekly macro (1W) — once per week) Review WALCL/RRP/TGA after the H.4.1 release on Thursdays ~4:30 pm ET. WALCL is “Weekly, as of Wednesday”; M2 is Monthly—so do not expect daily responsiveness from these. Federal Reserve +2 FRED +2 Recommended check times (practical schedule) Daily regime read: right after your chart’s daily close (confirmed bar). For consistent timing across crypto, many users set chart timezone to UTC and read ~00:05 UTC; you can change chart timezone in TV’s settings. TradingView In‑day monitoring: optional spot checks 16:00 & 20:00 UTC (DXY/VIX move during US hours), but act only after the daily bar confirms. Weekly macro pass: Thu 21:30–22:30 UTC (after H.4.1 4:30 pm ET) or Fri after daily close, to let weekly FRED series propagate. Federal Reserve Limitations & data latency (be explicit) Higher‑TF data & confirmation: FRED weekly/monthly series will not reflect intraday risk in crypto; we aggregate them for regime, not for entry timing. Repainting 101: Realtime bars move until close. This script does not use lookahead and follows Pine guidance on multi‑TF series; still, always act on confirmed bars. TradingView +1 Public‑library compliance: Title EN‑only; description starts in EN; clean chart; justify component mash‑up; no lookahead; no unrealistic claims. TradingView Alerts you can use “Macro Risk‑ON (entry)” — fires on ON flip (confirmed bar). “Macro Risk‑OFF (entry)” — fires on OFF flip. “Early 3/5” — fires when the teal pre‑signal appears (not a regime flip). “Preference change” — BTC/ETH/ALTs toggles while ON.

SuperTrend - Dynamic Lines and ChannelsSuperTrend Indicator: Comprehensive Description Overview The SuperTrend indicator is Pine Script V6 designed for TradingView to plot dynamic trend lines & channels across multiple timeframes (Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly/All-Time) to assist traders in identifying potential support, resistance, and trend continuation levels. The script calculates trendlines based on high and low prices over specified periods, projects these trendlines forward, and includes optional reflection channels and heartlines to provide additional context for price action analysis. The indicator is highly customizable, allowing users to toggle the visibility of trendlines, projections, and heartlines for each timeframe, with a focus on the DayTrade channel, which includes unique reflection channel features. This description provides a detailed explanation of the indicator’s features, functionality, and display, with a specific focus on the DayTrade channel’s anchoring, the role of static and dynamic channels in projecting future price action, the heartline’s potential as a volume indicator, and how traders can use the indicator for line-to-line trading strategies. Features and Functionality 1. Dynamic Trend Channels The SuperTrend indicator calculates trend channels for five timeframes: DayTrade Channel: Tracks daily highs and lows, updating before 12 PM each trading day. Weekly Channel: Tracks highs and lows over a user-selected period (1, 2, or 3 weeks). Monthly Channel: Tracks monthly highs and lows. Quarterly Channel: Tracks highs and lows over a user-selected period (1 or 2 quarters). Yearly/All-Time Channel: Tracks highs and lows over a user-selected period (1 to 10 years or All Time). Each channel consists of: Upper Trendline: Connects the high prices of the previous and current periods. Lower Trendline: Connects the low prices of the previous and current periods. Projections: Extends the trendlines forward based on the trend’s slope. Heartline: A dashed line drawn at the midpoint between the upper and lower trendlines or their projections. DayTrade Channel Anchoring The DayTrade channel anchors its trendlines to the high and low prices of the previous and current trading days, with updates restricted to before 12 PM to capture significant price movements during the morning session, which is often more volatile due to market openings or news events. The "Show DayTrade Trend Lines" toggle enables this channel, and after 12 PM, the trendlines and projections remain static for the rest of the trading day. This static anchoring provides a consistent reference for potential support and resistance levels, allowing traders to anticipate price reactions based on historical highs and lows from the previous day and the morning session of the current day. The static nature of the DayTrade channel after 12 PM ensures that the trendlines and projections do not shift mid-session, providing a stable framework for traders to assess whether price action respects or breaks these levels, potentially indicating trend continuation or reversal. Static vs. Dynamic Channels Static Channels: Once set (e.g., after 12 PM for the DayTrade channel or at the start of a new period for other timeframes), the trendlines remain fixed until the next period begins. This static behavior allows traders to use the channels as reference levels for potential price targets or reversal points, as they are based on historical price extremes. Dynamic Projections: The projections extend the trendlines forward, providing a visual guide for potential future price action, assuming the trend’s momentum continues. When a trendline is broken (e.g., price closes above the upper projection or below the lower projection), it may suggest a breakout or reversal, prompting traders to reassess their positions. 2. Reflection Channels (DayTrade Only) The DayTrade channel includes optional lower and upper reflection channels, which are additional trendlines positioned symmetrically around the main channel to provide extended support and resistance zones. These are controlled by the "Show Reflection Channel" dropdown. Lower Reflection Channel: Position: Drawn below the lower trendline at a distance equal to the range between the upper and lower trendlines. Projection: Extends forward as a dashed line. Heartline: A dashed line drawn at the midpoint between the lower trendline and the lower reflection trendline, controlled by the "Show Lower Reflection Heartline" toggle. Upper Reflection Channel: Position: Drawn above the upper trendline at the same distance as the main channel’s range. Projection: Extends forward as a dashed line. Heartline: A dashed line drawn at the midpoint between the upper trendline and the upper reflection trendline, controlled by the "Show Upper Reflection Heartline" toggle. Display Control: The "Show Reflection Channel" dropdown allows users to select: "None": No reflection channels are shown. "Lower": Only the lower reflection channel is shown. "Upper": Only the upper reflection channel is shown. "Both": Both reflection channels are shown. Purpose: Reflection channels extend the price range analysis by providing additional levels where price may react, acting as potential targets or reversal zones after breaking the main trendlines. 3. Heartlines Each timeframe, including the DayTrade channel and its reflection channels, can display a heartline, which is a dashed line plotted at the midpoint between the upper and lower trendlines or their projections. For the DayTrade channel: Main DayTrade Heartline: Midpoint between the upper and lower trendlines, controlled by the "Show DayTrade Heartline" toggle. Lower Reflection Heartline: Midpoint between the lower trendline and the lower reflection trendline, controlled by the "Show Lower Reflection Heartline" toggle. Upper Reflection Heartline: Midpoint between the upper trendline and the upper reflection trendline, controlled by the "Show Upper Reflection Heartline" toggle. Independent Toggles: Visibility is controlled by: "Show DayTrade Heartline": For the main DayTrade heartline. "Show Lower Reflection Heartline": For the lower reflection heartline. "Show Upper Reflection Heartline": For the upper reflection heartline. Potential Volume Indicator: The heartline represents the average price level between the high and low of a period, which may correlate with areas of high trading activity or volume concentration, as these midpoints often align with price levels where buyers and sellers have historically converged. A break above or below the heartline, especially with strong momentum, may indicate a shift in market sentiment, potentially leading to accelerated price movement in the direction of the break. However, this is an observation based on the heartline’s position, not a direct measure of volume, as the script does not incorporate volume data. 4. Alerts The script includes alert conditions for all timeframes, triggered when a candle closes fully above the upper projection or below the lower projection. For the DayTrade channel: Upper Trend Break: Triggers when a candle closes fully above the upper projection. Lower Trend Break: Triggers when a candle closes fully below the lower projection. Alerts are combined across all timeframes, so a break in any timeframe triggers a general "Upper Trend Break" or "Lower Trend Break" alert with the message: "Candle closed fully above/below one or more projection lines." Alerts fire once per bar close. 5. Customization Options The script provides extensive customization through input settings, grouped by timeframe: DayTrade Channel: "Show DayTrade Trend Lines": Toggle main trendlines and projections. "Show DayTrade Heartline": Toggle main heartline. "Show Lower Reflection Heartline": Toggle lower reflection heartline. "Show Upper Reflection Heartline": Toggle upper reflection heartline. "DayTrade Channel Color": Set color for trendlines. "DayTrade Projection Channel Color": Set color for projections. "Heartline Color": Set color for all heartlines. "Show Reflection Channel": Dropdown to show "None," "Lower," "Upper," or "Both" reflection channels. Other Timeframes (Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, Yearly/All-Time): Toggles for trendlines (e.g., "Show Weekly Trend Lines," "Show Monthly Trend Lines") and heartlines (e.g., "Show Weekly Heartline," "Show Monthly Heartline"). Period selection (e.g., "Weekly Period" for 1, 2, or 3 weeks; "Yearly Period" for 1 to 10 years or All Time). Separate colors for trendlines (e.g., "Weekly Channel Color"), projections (e.g., "Weekly Projection Channel Color"), and heartlines (e.g., "Weekly Heartline Color"). Max Bar Difference: Limits the distance between anchor points to ensure relevance to recent price action. Display The indicator overlays the following elements on the chart: Trendlines: Solid lines connecting the high and low anchor points for each timeframe, using user-specified colors (e.g., set via "DayTrade Channel Color"). Projections: Dashed lines extending from the current anchor points, indicating potential future price levels, using colors set via "DayTrade Projection Channel Color" or equivalent. Heartlines: Dashed lines at the midpoint of each channel, using the color set via "Heartline Color" or equivalent. Reflection Channels (DayTrade Only): Lower reflection trendline and projection: Below the lower trendline, using the same colors as the main channel. Upper reflection trendline and projection: Above the upper trendline, using the same colors. Reflection heartlines: Midpoints between the main trendlines and their respective reflection trendlines, using the "Heartline Color." Visual Clarity: Lines are only drawn if the relevant toggles (e.g., "Show DayTrade Trend Lines") are enabled and data is available. Lines are deleted when their conditions are not met to avoid clutter. Trading Applications: Line-to-Line Trading The SuperTrend indicator can be used to inform trading decisions by providing a framework for line-to-line trading, where traders use the trendlines, projections, and heartlines as reference points for entries, exits, and risk management. Below is a detailed explanation of how to use the DayTrade channel and its reflection channels for trading, focusing on their anchoring, static/dynamic behavior, and the heartline’s role. 1. Why DayTrade Channel Anchoring The DayTrade channel’s anchoring to the previous day’s high/low and the current day’s high/low before 12 PM, controlled by the "Show DayTrade Trend Lines" toggle, captures significant price levels during high-volatility periods: Previous Day High/Low: These represent key levels where price found resistance (high) or support (low) in the prior session, often acting as psychological or technical barriers in the current session. Current Day High/Low Before 12 PM: The morning session (before 12 PM) often sees increased volatility due to market openings, news releases, or institutional activity. Anchoring to these early highs/lows ensures the channel reflects the most relevant price extremes, which are likely to influence intraday price action. Static After 12 PM: By fixing the anchor points after 12 PM, the trendlines and projections become stable references for the afternoon session, allowing traders to anticipate price reactions at these levels without the lines shifting unexpectedly. This anchoring makes the DayTrade channel particularly useful for intraday traders, as it provides a consistent framework based on recent price history, which can guide decisions on trend continuation or reversal. 2. Using Static Channels and Projections The static nature of the DayTrade channel after 12 PM, enabled by "Show DayTrade Trend Lines," and the dynamic projections, set via "DayTrade Projection Channel Color," provide a structured approach to trading: Support and Resistance: The upper trendline and lower trendline act as dynamic support/resistance levels based on the previous and current day’s price extremes. Traders may observe price reactions (e.g., bounces or breaks) at these levels. For example, if price approaches the lower trendline and bounces, it may indicate support, suggesting a potential long entry. Projections as Price Targets: The projections extend the trendlines forward, offering potential price targets if the trend continues. For instance, if price breaks above the upper trendline and continues toward the upper projection, traders might consider it a bullish continuation signal. A candle closing fully above the upper projection or below the lower projection (triggering an alert) may indicate a breakout, prompting traders to enter in the direction of the break or reassess if the break fails. Static Channels for Breakouts: Because the trendlines are static after 12 PM, they serve as fixed reference points. A break above the upper trendline or its projection may suggest bullish momentum, while a break below the lower trendline or projection may indicate bearish momentum. Traders can use these breaks to set entry points (e.g., entering a long position after a confirmed break above the upper projection) and place stop-losses below the broken level to manage risk. 3. Line-to-Line Trading Strategy Line-to-line trading involves using the trendlines, projections, and reflection channels as sequential price targets or reversal zones: Trading Within the Main Channel: Long Setup: If price bounces off the lower trendline and moves toward the heartline (enabled by "Show DayTrade Heartline") or upper trendline, traders might enter a long position near the lower trendline, targeting the heartline or upper trendline for profit-taking. A stop-loss could be placed below the lower trendline to protect against a breakdown. Short Setup: If price rejects from the upper trendline and moves toward the heartline or lower trendline, traders might enter a short position near the upper trendline, targeting the heartline or lower trendline, with a stop-loss above the upper trendline. Trading to Reflection Channels: If price breaks above the upper trendline and continues toward the upper reflection trendline or its projection (enabled by "Show Reflection Channel" set to "Upper" or "Both"), traders might treat this as a breakout trade, entering long with a target at the upper reflection level and a stop-loss below the upper trendline. Similarly, a break below the lower trendline toward the lower reflection trendline or its projection (enabled by "Show Reflection Channel" set to "Lower" or "Both") could signal a short opportunity, with a target at the lower reflection level and a stop-loss above the lower trendline. Reversal Trades: If price reaches the upper reflection trendline and shows signs of rejection (e.g., a bearish candlestick pattern), traders might consider a short position, anticipating a move back toward the main channel’s upper trendline or heartline. Conversely, a rejection at the lower reflection trendline could prompt a long position targeting the lower trendline or heartline. Risk Management: Use the heartline as a midpoint to gauge whether price is likely to continue toward the opposite trendline or reverse. For example, a failure to break above the heartline after bouncing from the lower trendline might suggest weakening bullish momentum, prompting a tighter stop-loss. The static nature of the channels after 12 PM allows traders to set precise stop-loss and take-profit levels based on historical price levels, reducing the risk of chasing moving targets. 4. Heartline as a Volume Indicator The heartline, controlled by toggles like "Show DayTrade Heartline," "Show Lower Reflection Heartline," and "Show Upper Reflection Heartline," may serve as an indirect proxy for areas of high trading activity: Rationale: The heartline represents the average price between the high and low of a period, which often aligns with price levels where significant buying and selling have occurred, as these midpoints can correspond to areas of consolidation or high volume in the order book. While the script does not directly use volume data, the heartline’s position may reflect price levels where market participants have historically balanced supply and demand. Breakout Potential: A break above or below the heartline, particularly with a strong candle (e.g., wide range or high momentum), may indicate a shift in market sentiment, potentially leading to accelerated price movement in the direction of the break. For example: A close above the main DayTrade heartline could suggest buyers are overpowering sellers, potentially leading to a move toward the upper trendline or upper reflection channel. A close below the heartline could indicate seller dominance, targeting the lower trendline or lower reflection channel. Trading Application: Traders might use heartline breaks as confirmation signals for trend continuation. For instance, after a bounce from the lower trendline, a close above the heartline could confirm bullish momentum, prompting a long entry. The heartline can also act as a dynamic stop-loss or trailing stop level. For example, in a long trade, a trader might exit if price falls below the heartline, indicating a potential reversal. For reflection heartlines, a break above the upper reflection heartline or below the lower reflection heartline could signal strong momentum, as these levels are further from the main channel and may require significant buying or selling pressure to breach. 5. Practical Trading Considerations Timeframe Context: The DayTrade channel, enabled by "Show DayTrade Trend Lines," is best suited for intraday trading due to its daily anchoring and morning update behavior. Traders should consider higher timeframe channels (e.g., enabled by "Show Weekly Trend Lines" or "Show Monthly Trend Lines") for broader context, as breaks of the DayTrade channel may align with or be influenced by larger trends. Confirmation Tools: Use additional indicators (e.g., RSI, MACD, or volume-based indicators) or candlestick patterns to confirm signals at trendlines, projections, or heartlines. The script’s alerts can help identify breakouts, but traders should verify with other technical or fundamental factors. Risk Management: Always define risk-reward ratios before entering trades. For example, a 1:2 risk-reward ratio might involve risking a stop-loss below the lower trendline to target the heartline or upper trendline. Market Conditions: The effectiveness of the channels and heartlines depends on market conditions (e.g., trending vs. ranging markets). In choppy markets, price may oscillate within the main channel, favoring range-bound strategies. In trending markets, breaks of projections or reflection channels may signal continuation trades. Limitations: The indicator relies on historical price data and does not incorporate volume, news, or other external factors. Traders should use it as part of a broader strategy and avoid relying solely on its signals. How to Use in TradingView Add the Indicator: Copy the script into TradingView’s Pine Editor, compile it, and add it to your chart. Configure Settings: Enable "Show DayTrade Trend Lines" to display the main DayTrade trendlines and projections. Use the "Show Reflection Channel" dropdown to select "Lower," "Upper," or "Both" to display reflection channels. Toggle "Show DayTrade Heartline," "Show Lower Reflection Heartline," and "Show Upper Reflection Heartline" to control heartline visibility. Adjust colors using "DayTrade Channel Color," "DayTrade Projection Channel Color," and "Heartline Color." Enable other timeframes (e.g., "Show Weekly Trend Lines," "Show Monthly Trend Lines") for additional context, if desired. Set Alerts: Configure alerts in TradingView for "Upper Trend Break" or "Lower Trend Break" to receive notifications when a candle closes fully above or below any timeframe’s projections. Analyze the Chart: Monitor price interactions with the trendlines, projections, and heartlines. Look for bounces, breaks, or rejections at these levels to plan entries and exits. Use the heartline breaks as potential confirmation of momentum shifts. Test Strategies: Backtest line-to-line trading strategies in TradingView’s strategy tester or demo account to evaluate performance before trading with real capital. Conclusion The SuperTrend indicator provides a robust framework for technical analysis by plotting dynamic trend channels, projections, and heartlines across multiple timeframes, with advanced features for the DayTrade channel, including lower and upper reflection channels. The DayTrade channel’s anchoring to previous and current day highs/lows before 12 PM, enabled by "Show DayTrade Trend Lines," creates a stable reference for intraday trading, while static trendlines and dynamic projections guide traders in anticipating price movements. The heartlines, controlled by toggles like "Show DayTrade Heartline," offer potential insights into high-activity price levels, with breaks possibly indicating momentum shifts. Traders can use the indicator for line-to-line trading by targeting moves between trendlines, projections, and reflection channels, while managing risk with stop-losses and confirmations from other tools. The indicator should be used as part of a comprehensive trading plan.
