Candles and Z-Scores: A Statistical Approach to Market Analysis
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
OVERVIEW
This indicator applies Z-Score statistical analysis to measure how unusual current market conditions are compared to historical norms. It simultaneously analyzes five key metrics: Price, Total Volume, Buy Volume, Sell Volume, and Delta (Buy minus Sell) . The system detects 60 academically-researched market scenarios and provides visual feedback through Z-Lines (support/resistance levels), Event Markers, Trend Channels, and a comprehensive Dashboard.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
CORE CONCEPT: WHY Z-SCORE?
A Z-Score measures how many standard deviations a value is from its mean. In financial markets, extreme Z-Scores indicate statistically rare events that often precede significant price movements.
Mathematical Formula:
Z = (Current Value - Mean) / Standard Deviation
Interpretation:
• Z ≥ +2.0: Extremely high (occurs approximately 2.5% of the time)
• Z ≥ +1.0: Above average
• Z ≈ 0: Normal (near the mean)
• Z ≤ -1.0: Below average
• Z ≤ -2.0: Extremely low (occurs approximately 2.5% of the time)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
ACADEMIC FOUNDATION
This indicator is inspired by / grounded in market microstructure literature (abbreviated citations in-script) from market microstructure literature:
• Price-Volume Relationship - Karpoff (1987), Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis, Cambridge
Volume is positively correlated with price change magnitude
• Order Flow Imbalance - Cont, Kukanov, Stoikov (2014), Journal of Financial Econometrics
Order imbalance drives price more reliably than raw volume
• Informed Trading (PIN Model) - Easley, Kiefer, O'Hara, Paperman (1996), Journal of Finance
Buy/Sell imbalance reveals informed trader activity
• Mixture of Distributions - Tauchen & Pitts (1983), Clark (1973)
Volume clusters with volatility regimes
• Volume Predictability - Gervais, Kaniel, Mingelgrin (2001)
Volume shocks predict future returns
• Liquidity & Order Imbalance - Chordia, Roll, Subrahmanyam (2002)
Order imbalance affects short-term returns
• Volume-Return Dynamics - Llorente, Michaely, Saar, Wang (2002)
Speculation vs. risk-sharing patterns
• Reversal vs. Continuation - Campbell, Grossman, Wang (MIT)
High volume predicts lower autocorrelation
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
VOLUME ENGINE
The indicator offers two methods for decomposing total volume into Buy and Sell components:
Method 1: Geometry (Approximation)
Uses candle structure to estimate buying and selling pressure:
Buy Volume = Total Volume × (Close - Low) / (High - Low)
Sell Volume = Total Volume × (High - Close) / (High - Low)
• Works on all instruments without additional data requirements
• Fast calculation
• Less precise than intrabar method
Method 2: Intrabar (Precise)
Uses Lower Timeframe (LTF) tick/second data to aggregate actual up-ticks versus down-ticks:
• More accurate volume decomposition
• Requires LTF data availability
• Configurable LTF: 1T (tick), 1S, 15S, 1M
Delta Calculation:
Delta = Buy Volume - Sell Volume
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Z-SCORE SYSTEM
The system calculates Z-Scores for five metrics simultaneously, using a configurable lookback period (default: 20 bars):
• Zp (Price Z-Score): Measures price deviation from its mean
• Zv (Volume Z-Score): Measures total volume deviation
• Zbuy (Buy Volume Z-Score): Measures buying pressure deviation
• Zsell (Sell Volume Z-Score): Measures selling pressure deviation
• ZΔ (Delta Z-Score): Measures order flow imbalance deviation
Threshold Constants:
• ZH (Z High) = 2.0: Extreme threshold
• ZM (Z Medium) = 1.0: Moderate threshold
• Z0 (Z Zero) = 0.5: Near-zero threshold
Group System:
The analysis window is divided into groups (default: 5 groups × 20 bars = 100 bar total window). Group numbers (1, 2, 3...) are displayed above candles when enabled, helping identify the relative age of detected levels.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Z-LINES (SUPPORT/RESISTANCE LEVELS)
When any metric reaches an extreme Z-Score, the system marks that price level as a significant support or resistance zone.
Detection Logic:
• Upper Z-Line: Drawn from the HIGH when Z ≥ upper threshold (default +2.0)
• Lower Z-Line: Drawn from the LOW when Z ≤ lower threshold (default -2.0)
Multi-Metric Detection:
Z-Lines can be triggered by any of the five metrics (Price, Volume, Buy, Sell, Delta). When multiple metrics trigger at similar price levels, they are clustered together into a single combined label showing all contributing metrics.
Persistence:
Z-Lines persist for the entire analysis window (Period × Groups bars) and are NOT removed when price touches them. This allows traders to see historical support/resistance levels that may still be relevant.
Anti-Overlap System:
Labels are automatically repositioned to prevent overlap. The "Label Min Gap (%)" setting controls minimum vertical separation between ALL labels (both upper and lower), ensuring readability even when multiple levels cluster together.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
EVENT DETECTION ENGINE (60 SCENARIOS)
The system analyzes 60 distinct market scenarios based on Z-Score combinations. Each scenario is derived from academic research and assigned a confidence score based on signal strength and alignment.
Notation:
• Zp = Price Z-Score
• Zv = Total Volume Z-Score
• Zbuy = Buy Volume Z-Score
• Zsell = Sell Volume Z-Score
• ZΔ = Delta Z-Score
• dirP = Price direction (+1 if Zp > 0.5, -1 if Zp < -0.5, else 0)
• = Previous bar value
• ZH = 2.0 (High threshold)
• ZM = 1.0 (Medium threshold)
• Z0 = 0.5 (Zero threshold)

TREND CHANNEL SYSTEM
The trend channel system is adapted from Smart Trader Episode 03 to provide consistent visual context for price action analysis.
How It Works:
• Divides the chart into blocks based on Z-Score groups
• Calculates OHLC (Open, High, Low, Close) for each block
• Detects Higher Highs/Higher Lows (uptrend) or Lower Highs/Lower Lows (downtrend) patterns
• Draws channel lines connecting block extremes
• Classifies by angle: steep angles indicate trends, flat angles indicate ranges
Channel Classifications:
• UPTREND: Higher highs and higher lows detected
• DOWNTREND: Lower highs and lower lows detected
• RANGE: Channel angle below threshold (default 10 degrees)
Label Information:
• Trend direction (UPTREND/DOWNTREND/RANGE)
• Channel boundary prices
• Distance from current price (absolute and percentage)
• Channel angle in degrees
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
DASHBOARD
The dashboard provides a comprehensive real-time view of all Z-Score metrics and detected events.
Dashboard Sections:
1. Header Row

• Bias Shift Alerts: 10%, 20%, or 30% shifts in market bias
• High Confidence Alerts: Events with 60%+, 70%+, 80%+, or 90%+ confidence
• Divergence Alerts: Price vs Volume or Price vs Delta divergences
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
DATA ACCURACY AND LIMITATIONS
This indicator is 100% VOLUME-BASED and requires Lower Timeframe (LTF) intrabar data for accurate calculations when using the Intrabar method.
Data Accuracy Levels:
• 1T (Tick): Most accurate, real volume distribution per tick
• 1S (1 Second): Reasonably accurate approximation
• 15S (15 Seconds): Good approximation, longer historical data available
• 1M (1 Minute): Rough approximation, maximum historical data range
Backtest and Replay Limitations:
• Replay mode results may differ from live trading due to data availability
• For longer backtest periods, use higher LTF settings (15S or 1M)
• Not all symbols/exchanges support tick-level data
• Crypto and Forex typically have better LTF data availability than stocks
A Note on Data Access:
Higher TradingView plans provide access to more historical intrabar data, which directly impacts the accuracy of volume-based calculations. More precise volume data leads to more reliable calculations.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
LANGUAGE SUPPORT (TRI-LINGUAL UI)
This indicator includes a built-in language switch with three interface languages :
• English (EN)
• Türkçe (TR)
• 한국어 (KO)
The selected language updates key interface text such as the Dashboard headers/rows , tooltips , and the Event Engine outputs (event names, category names, and direction labels). Turkish diacritics and Korean Hangul are supported for clean, native readability.
Why only three languages?
Each additional language requires duplicating strings throughout the code, which increases script size/memory usage and compilation time. To keep the indicator optimized and responsive, language options are intentionally limited to three.

Future Swing [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
Future Swing is a swing-based projection tool that estimates the potential size and price target of the next swing move using historical swing behavior.
Instead of predicting direction randomly, it analyzes completed swing legs, measures their percentage moves, and projects a statistically derived swing target into the future.
The indicator combines swing structure, high/low zones, volume context, and a real-time dashboard to help traders anticipate where price may travel next.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Swing Detection — Swing highs and lows are identified using a configurable lookback length.
Swing Percentage Tracking — Each completed swing leg is converted into a percentage move and stored.
Statistical Projection — Future swing size is estimated using Average, Median, or Mode of past swing percentages.
Directional Awareness — Projections adapt automatically based on current swing direction.
🔵 FEATURES
Historical Swing Sampling —
• Uses a user-defined number of completed swings.
• More samples = smoother projection, fewer samples = faster adaptation.
Future Swing Projection —
• Dashed line projects the estimated swing target forward in time.
• Projection distance is visual-only and does not affect calculations.
High/Low Swing Zones —
• Upper and lower swing zones expand using ATR distance.
• Zones visualize potential reaction and rejection areas.
Volume Context per Swing —
• Buy and sell volume are accumulated during each swing leg.
• Delta and total volume are displayed in the dashboard.
Smart Dashboard —
• Displays each stored swing percentage.
• Shows calculated swing projection value.
Flexible Projection Method —
• Average: smooth and balanced.
• Median: filters out extreme outliers.
• Mode: focuses on the most common swing size.
Extendable Zones —
• Swing zones can optionally extend forward indefinitely.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Anticipate Swing Targets — Use the projected swing line as a probabilistic price objective.
Combine with Structure — Align projections with support, resistance, or liquidity zones.
Filter by Volume — Confirm swing quality using delta and total volume metrics.
Adjust Sensitivity — Tune swing length and historical sample size to match timeframe and volatility.
Context, Not Certainty — Use projections as guidance, not fixed take-profit levels.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Future Swing transforms past swing behavior into a forward-looking projection model.
By combining swing structure, statistical aggregation, ATR zones, and volume analysis, it offers traders a structured way to estimate where the next meaningful price move may reach — without relying on fixed targets or subjective assumptions.
Dynamic Flow Ribbon [Adaptive]The Dynamic Flow Ribbon is a next-generation trend-following tool designed to solve the two biggest problems traders face: Lag and Noise .
Unlike traditional Moving Averages (SMA/EMA) that are often too slow to catch reversals or too sensitive to chop, this indicator utilizes Rational Quadratic Kernel Smoothing . This advanced mathematical approach creates a "Flow Ribbon" that hugs price action tightly during trends while remaining silky smooth, filtering out the random noise that leads to false signals.
This is not just a crossover indicator; it is a complete Market Regime Detector . It automatically identifies when the market is trending and when it is ranging, helping you stay out of dangerous "chop" zones.
Why Use This?
Zero-Lag Smoothing: Experience the responsiveness of a fast EMA with the smoothness of a slow SMA.
Chop Filter: The ribbon automatically turns Gray when volatility (ADX) drops, signaling you to sit on your hands and preserve capital.
Visual Clarity: No messy lines. Just a clean, glowing ribbon that tells you the trend direction instantly.
How It Works
The indicator calculates two dynamic curves:
Fast Flow Line: Tracks immediate price action using a tight kernel window.
Base Flow Line: A slower, weighted baseline that acts as the trend anchor.
The Ribbon: The space between these lines forms the "Ribbon."
Green (Bullish): Fast Flow > Base Flow. The trend is Up.
Red (Bearish): Fast Flow < Base Flow. The trend is Down.
Gray (Flat): Volatility is too low (ADX < Threshold). The market is sideways.
How to Trade
This tool is best used for Trend Continuation and Reversal Catching .
The Entry: Wait for a Crossover Signal (Small Circle).
Buy when the Ribbon flips Green.
Sell when the Ribbon flips Red.
The Filter: If the Ribbon is Gray , ignore all signals. This prevents you from getting whipsawed in a ranging market.
The Exit: You can ride the trend until the Ribbon flips color, or use your own support/resistance targets.
Settings
Bandwidth (Smoothness): Adjusts the sensitivity of the kernel. Higher values = smoother ribbon (better for swing trading). Lower values = faster reaction (better for scalping).
Trend Filter: Toggle the ADX-based chop filter on/off.
Visuals: Fully customizable colors to match your chart aesthetic.
Pro Tip: Combine for Maximum Accuracy
While the Dynamic Flow Ribbon is excellent for Trend Direction, it does not plot Support & Resistance levels.
For the ultimate trading setup, I highly recommend pairing this with my AIO Pivot Master
or any other pivot indicator, which you can easily find on TradingView.
Use Dynamic Flow to determine the Direction .
Use AIO Pivot Master to find your Entry and Exit targets .

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
DESIGN PHILOSOPHY: CLEAN CHART, RICH DASHBOARD
Traditional indicators often clutter charts with dozens of support/resistance lines, making it difficult to see price action clearly. This indicator takes a different approach:
The Chart:
Displays only the most meaningful, nearest levels (1 up, 1 down) that have not been consumed by price. This keeps your chart clean and focused on what matters right now.
The Dashboard:
Contains all detailed metrics, calculations, and analysis. Instead of drawing 20 lines on your chart, you get comprehensive data in an organized table format.
Why this approach?
• A clean chart allows you to see price action without visual noise
• Fewer but more meaningful levels help focus attention on immediate reference points
• The dashboard provides depth without sacrificing chart clarity
• Beginners can learn chart reading with an uncluttered view while accessing detailed analysis when needed
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
1. BLOCK SEGMENTATION
What it does:
Divides the analysis window into fixed-size blocks. Each block contains multiple bars that are analyzed as a single unit.
Why:
Individual bars contain noise. A single red candle in an uptrend might cause unnecessary concern, but when you view 5-10 bars as one block, the overall direction becomes clear. Block segmentation filters out bar-to-bar noise and reveals the underlying structure.
Benefit:
• Clearer view of market structure at a higher aggregation level
• Enables comparison between time periods (Block 1 vs Block 2 vs Block 3)
• Creates the foundation for composite candles and trend detection
• Reduces emotional reaction to single-bar movements
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
2. COMPOSITE CANDLES (FRACTAL CONCEPT)
What it does:
Each block generates a "ghost candle" representing aggregated OHLC:
• Open: First bar's open in the block
• High: Highest high across all bars in the block
• Low: Lowest low across all bars in the block
• Close: Last bar's close in the block
Why:
This is essentially a FRACTAL view of the market. The same candlestick patterns that appear on a daily chart also appear on hourly charts, and on 5-minute charts. By aggregating bars into composite candles, you create a synthetic higher timeframe view without changing your actual timeframe.
Benefit:
• See higher timeframe patterns while staying on your preferred timeframe
• Identify block-level candlestick patterns (Doji, Hammer, Marubozu, Engulfing, etc.)
• Compare composite candle relationships: Does Block 1 engulf Block 2? Is Block 1 an inside bar relative to Block 2?
• Recognize patterns that individual bars obscure due to noise
Fractal Nature:
A hammer pattern means the same thing whether it appears on a 1-minute chart or a weekly chart: price tested lower levels and was rejected. Composite candles let you see these patterns at your chosen aggregation level, providing a multi-scale view of market behavior.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
3. VOLUME ENGINE
What it does:
This indicator is 100% VOLUME-BASED. It separates total volume into buying volume and selling volume using two methods:
Method 1 - Geometric (Approximation):
• Buy Volume = Total Volume × ((Close - Low) / Range)
• Sell Volume = Total Volume × ((High - Close) / Range)
Method 2 - Intrabar LTF (Precise):
Uses actual tick-level or lower timeframe data to determine real buy/sell distribution.
Why:
Raw volume tells you HOW MUCH was traded, but not WHO was aggressive. A large volume bar could mean heavy buying, heavy selling, or both. By separating buy and sell volume, you can identify which side is driving the market.
Benefit:
• Identify whether buyers or sellers are more aggressive
• Detect when volume contradicts price direction (divergence)
• Measure accumulation (buying into weakness) vs distribution (selling into strength)
• Quantify the delta (buy minus sell) to see net pressure
Why Delta Matters:
If price is rising but delta is negative, sellers are actually more aggressive despite the price increase. This divergence often precedes reversals because the price movement lacks volume confirmation.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
4. PIN ANALYSIS (WICK MEASUREMENT)
What it does:
Calculates average upper pin (wick) and lower pin sizes for each block, then tracks how these change across consecutive blocks.
Why:
Upper pins represent price levels that were tested but rejected by sellers. Lower pins represent price levels that were tested but rejected by buyers. The size and direction of pins reveal rejection strength at specific price zones.
Benefit:
• Large upper pins = strong selling pressure at higher levels
• Large lower pins = strong buying support at lower levels
• Increasing upper pins across blocks = intensifying selling pressure
• Decreasing lower pins across blocks = weakening buying support
Why Track Pin Changes:
Pin behavior often changes before price direction changes. If lower pins are shrinking while price is still rising, the buying support that was defending dips is weakening. This is observable data, not prediction.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
5. TREND CHANNEL DETECTION
What it does:
Identifies trend direction using block-level price structure:
• UPTREND: Block highs are higher than previous block highs, AND block lows are higher than previous block lows (HH/HL pattern)
• DOWNTREND: Block highs are lower than previous block highs, AND block lows are lower than previous block lows (LH/LL pattern)
• RANGE: No consistent directional pattern
Once detected, the system draws upper and lower channel boundaries by connecting extreme points within each trend segment.
Why:
HH/HL and LH/LL are the classical definitions of trend. By applying this logic to composite candles (blocks) rather than individual bars, the trend detection becomes more stable and less prone to whipsaws from single-bar noise.
Benefit:
• Clear visual boundaries showing the current trend channel
• Upper channel line = dynamic resistance based on actual price structure
• Lower channel line = dynamic support based on actual price structure
• Channel angle indicates trend strength (steeper = stronger)
• Channel width indicates volatility
Why Lock Trend States:
Once a block's trend classification is determined, it locks and does not change on subsequent recalculations. Without locking, the same block could flip between UP and DOWN repeatedly, creating inconsistent analysis. Locking ensures stability.
Why Project Lines Forward:
Channel lines can be projected into the future to show where support/resistance would be if the current trend continues at the same angle. This is not a prediction; it is a visual reference showing the trend's trajectory.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
6. CORE LEVELS: POC, MAX BUY, MAX SELL
What it does:
Identifies key price levels within each block based on volume data:
POC (Point of Control):
The price level where the highest total volume occurred within the block.
MAX BUY Level:
The bar with the highest buying volume. The HIGH of this bar marks the level.
MAX SELL Level:
The bar with the highest selling volume. The LOW of this bar marks the level.
MIN BUY/SELL Levels:
Optional levels showing where minimum buy/sell volume occurred.
Why:
High volume at a specific price means many participants entered positions there. These participants have a vested interest in that price level. If price returns to that area, those same participants may act to defend their positions.
Benefit:
• POC acts as a volume-based magnet; price tends to revisit high-volume areas
• MAX BUY level shows where buyers committed most aggressively
• MAX SELL level shows where sellers committed most aggressively
• These levels are based on actual transaction data, not arbitrary calculations
Why Consumed Levels Disappear:
When price crosses through a level, that level has been "tested." Keeping consumed levels on the chart creates visual clutter and suggests they are still relevant when they may no longer be. Removing them keeps focus on levels that have not yet been tested.
Why Show Only Nearest Levels:
If you have 20 blocks, you could have 60+ potential levels (POC, MAX BUY, MAX SELL for each). Displaying all of them makes the chart unreadable. Showing only the nearest untested level above and below current price keeps the chart clean while providing immediate reference points.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
7. QUALITY SCORE AND TREND INTELLIGENCE
What it does:
Calculates a quality score (0-100) for the current trend based on multiple factors:
• Angle steepness (stronger trends have steeper angles)
• Delta consistency (does volume support the trend direction?)
• Volume momentum (is participation increasing or decreasing?)
• Body expansion (are candle bodies growing or shrinking?)
• Pin alignment (do pins support the trend direction?)
• Contradiction count (how many factors disagree?)
Why:
Not all trends are equal. A trend with consistent volume support, expanding bodies, and aligned pins is healthier than a trend with contradicting signals. The quality score quantifies this.
Benefit:
• HIGH quality (80+): Multiple factors confirm the trend
• MEDIUM quality (60-79): Some factors confirm, some neutral
• LOW quality (below 60): Multiple contradictions exist
• Strength rating based on channel angle: VERY STRONG, STRONG, MODERATE, WEAK
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
8. NARRATIVE ENGINE
What it does:
Generates a text-based market analysis by synthesizing all calculated data into readable sentences.
How it works:
1. Analyzes current candle: pattern type (Doji, Hammer, Marubozu, etc.), body/wick ratios, range vs ATR
2. Analyzes composite candle: Block 1 pattern and relationship to Block 2 (Engulfing, Inside, Outside)
3. Evaluates trend context: direction, duration, quality, transitions
4. Examines volume data: delta, dominance, momentum direction
5. Checks proximity to key levels: channel boundaries, POC, core levels
6. Identifies divergences: when price and volume directions contradict
7. Produces a coherent narrative describing the current situation
Why:
Numbers and charts require interpretation. The narrative engine translates calculated data into plain language, helping traders understand what the data means in context. This is especially valuable for beginners learning to read charts.
Benefit:
• Synthesizes multiple data points into a coherent story
• Explicitly flags divergences and contradictions
• Describes the current situation without making predictions
• Educational: shows how different factors relate to each other
What the Narrative Does NOT Do:
The narrative describes what IS, not what WILL BE. It does not predict future price movement. It reports the current candle pattern, the current trend state, the current volume situation, and the current proximity to levels.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
9. SMART DASHBOARD
What it does:
Displays all metrics in an organized table with multiple sections.
Sections:
• Volume Engine: Calculation method, data availability, current candle buy/sell/delta
• Trend Volumetrics: Aggregated buy/sell/delta across the current trend, trend type
• Pressure and Momentum: Average pins, pin change percentages, body expansion status
• Trend Channel Boundaries: Upper/lower levels with exact prices, distances, percentages
• Trend Intelligence: Quality score, confidence level, strength rating, volume momentum
Why:
All the detailed calculations need to live somewhere without cluttering the chart. The dashboard provides comprehensive data in a structured format.
Benefit:
• All metrics in one place
• Organized by category for easy reference
• Hover over any label to see a tooltip explaining that metric
• No need to draw dozens of lines on the chart
TIP: Hover over dashboard headers and labels to see tooltips explaining each metric.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
10. LANGUAGE SUPPORT
The indicator supports three languages:
• English
• Türkçe (Turkish)
• हिन्दी (Hindi)
Why only three languages?
Each additional language requires duplicate strings throughout the code, increasing memory usage and compilation time. To keep the script optimized and responsive, language options are limited to these three.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
11. DATA ACCURACY AND LIMITATIONS
This indicator is 100% VOLUME-BASED and requires Lower Timeframe (LTF) intrabar data for accurate calculations.
DATA ACCURACY LEVELS:
• 1T (Tick): Most accurate, real volume distribution per tick
• 1S (1 Second): Reasonably accurate approximation
• 15S (15 Seconds): Good approximation, longer historical data available
• 1M (1 Minute): Rough approximation, maximum historical data range

A Humbled Trader Strategy + ChecklistHumbled Trader Swing Strategy + Checklist
This indicator is a complete swing trading system based on the high-probability strategies popularized by Humbled Trader. It is designed to help traders identify trend breakouts and low-risk momentum pullbacks on the Daily Timeframe.
The script combines trend filtering, automated resistance lines, and specific entry triggers into a single chart overlay, complete with a real-time Strategy Checklist Dashboard to confirm your setups instantly.
🎯 Core Components
Trend Filter (Purple Line): The 200 Simple Moving Average (SMA). This acts as your long-term trend filter. We only look for long trades when the price is above this line.
Momentum Guide (Orange Line): The 8 Exponential Moving Average (EMA). This tracks short-term momentum. In a strong trend, price will "ride" this line. We look to enter when price pulls back to touch this area.
Multi-Month Resistance (Orange Horizontal Line): Automatically plots the highest price over the last X Months (adjustable). This helps you instantly visualize the key level the stock needs to break out from.
Checklist Dashboard: A real-time table that evaluates Trend, Resistance, and Momentum conditions to give you a clear "✅ ENTER", "🚀 GAP UP", or "⏳ WAIT" signal.
🛠 How It Works
This indicator scans for two specific setups:
1. The Daily Gap Up ("GAP" Label) This signal appears when a stock shows strong momentum by gapping up overnight.
Condition: The stock opens at least 3% higher (adjustable) than the previous day's Close AND opens above the previous day's High.
Trend: Must be above the 200 SMA.
Visual: Marked with a green "GAP" label on the chart.
2. The Trend Pullback ("ENTER" Signal) This is a trend-following entry that lets you join an existing move with lower risk.
Condition: The stock is in an uptrend but dips down to touch or test the 8 EMA.
Validation: The candle must show a "dip" (red candle or lower close) to ensure we are buying a pullback, not chasing a top.
Visual: The Dashboard "Action Signal" will turn orange and display "✅ ENTER".
📋 The Checklist Dashboard
Located in the corner of your chart, this table provides a live status report for the current bar:
Trend (> 200 SMA):
🟢 Bullish: Price is in an uptrend. Safe to look for entries.
🔴 Bearish: Price is below the 200 SMA. Stay away.
Above Resistance?:
🟢 Breakout: Price has cleared the multi-month resistance line.
⚪ ---: Price is currently below the key breakout level.
Near 8 EMA?:
🟢 Yes: Price is near the "value zone" (8 EMA) for a potential pullback entry.
Action Signal:
🚀 GAP UP: Strong momentum gap detected.
✅ ENTER: Valid pullback entry detected.
⏳ WAIT: No clear setup found.
⚙️ Settings
Momentum EMA Length: Default is 8. Controls the sensitivity of the pullback line.
Trend SMA Length: Default is 200. The standard for long-term trend filtering.
Gap Up % Threshold: Default is 3.0%. Minimum overnight gap size required to trigger a signal.
Resistance Lookback (Months): Default is 3. The script will look back this many months to find and draw the key resistance line.
Table Position: Move the checklist to any corner of your screen.

📌 OVERVIEW
Smart Trader Episode 02: Battle of Candles is an advanced educational indicator that combines multiple analysis engines to help traders identify market scenarios and understand market dynamics. This is NOT financial advice or a trading signal service — it's a learning tool designed to help you understand how institutional traders might interpret price action.
The indicator integrates 7 major analysis engines into a unified dashboard, providing real-time insights into volume flow, trend structure, market phases, and potential trade setups.
⚡ KEY FEATURES
🎯 16-Pattern Scenario Engine
Automatically detects and classifies market conditions into 16 distinct scenarios, from strong continuation moves to potential reversals and traps.
💰 Trade Advisor Panel
Aggregates all signals into actionable suggestions with confidence levels, suggested entry/SL/TP levels, and risk/reward calculations.
📊 Volume Engine
Splits volume into buy/sell components using either Geometry (candle shape) or Intrabar (LTF data) methods for precise delta analysis.
📈 CVD (Cumulative Volume Delta)
Tracks the running total of buying vs selling pressure to identify accumulation, distribution, and divergences.
🎯 Stop-Hunt Detection
Identifies potential stop-hunt patterns where price sweeps liquidity levels before reversing.
📐 Pure Structure Trend Engine
Zero-lag trend detection based on swing highs/lows (HH/HL/LH/LL) without any lagging indicators.
⚡ Effort vs Result Analysis
Measures energy spent (volume) versus ground taken (price movement) to detect stalls, breakthroughs, and exhaustion.
🎯 SCENARIO ENGINE — 16 Market Patterns
The Scenario Engine analyzes multiple factors (candle anatomy, volume, forces, CVD, wick analysis) to classify each candle into one of 16 scenarios:
Continuation Scenarios (1-3)
1. ⚔️ STRONG MOVE — Big body candle (>60%) with volume confirming direction. Indicates strong momentum continuation.
2. 🛡️ ABSORPTION — One side attacks but the other absorbs the pressure. Price holds despite volume. Continuation expected in the absorbing side's favor.
3. 📉 PULLBACK — Small move against the trend with low volume. Indicates a healthy retracement before trend continuation.
Reversal Scenarios (4-6, 13-16)
4. 💥 REJECTION — Big wick (>40%) with small body and high volume. Price was rejected
at a level, potential reversal.
5. 🪤 TRAP — Pin direction disagrees with delta. Extreme wick size. Looks bullish/bearish but the opposite may happen.
6. 😫 EXHAUSTION — High energy spent (volume) but low ground taken (price movement). Both sides active but momentum fading.
13. 🔄 CVD BULL DIV — Price falling but CVD rising. Hidden buying detected (accumulation). Potential bullish reversal.
14. 🔄 CVD BEAR DIV — Price rising but CVD falling. Hidden selling detected (distribution). Potential bearish reversal.
15. 🎯 STOP HUNT BULL — Shorts were liquidated below support. Price swept liquidity and reversed. Expect bullish move.
16. 🎯 STOP HUNT BEAR — Longs were liquidated above resistance. Price swept liquidity and reversed. Expect bearish move.
Range/Stalemate Scenarios (7-9)
7. ⚖️ DEADLOCK — Market in balance. Force ratio between 0.4-0.6. Low volume. No side winning.
8. 🔥 BATTLE — High volume fight in a range. Both sides attacking. Wicks on both ends of candle.
9. 🎯 WAITING — Building phase with quiet volume. Market is preparing but no trigger yet. Wait for breakout.
Pre-Breakout Scenarios (10-12)
10. 🚀 BULL SETUP — Buyers accumulating in a building phase. Positive delta building. Bullish pressure growing.
11. 💣 BEAR SETUP — Sellers distributing in a building phase. Negative delta building. Bearish pressure growing.
12. ⚡ BREAKOUT — Price at boundary with strong candle and volume supporting. Imminent breakout expected.

• 🛑 STOP LOSS — Price hit risk threshold
• 💰 TAKE PROFIT — Target threshold reached
📊 EXTENDED INFO PANEL (Detailed Explanations)
The Extended Info panel is hidden by default (toggle: Show Extended Info in settings). It provides detailed metrics that feed into the main engines:
CVD ANALYSIS
What is CVD?
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) is the running total of Buy Volume minus Sell Volume. It reveals the underlying buying/selling pressure that may not be visible in price alone.
CVD Value & Slope:
• ↗ Rising: CVD increasing = net buying pressure (bullish)
• ↘ Falling: CVD decreasing = net selling pressure (bearish)
• → Flat: No clear pressure direction
Accumulation vs Distribution:
• Accumulation %: Shows buying pressure strength (0-100). High accumulation with CVD rising = strong bullish bias.
• Distribution %: Shows selling pressure strength (0-100). High distribution with CVD falling = strong bearish bias.
Divergence Alerts:
• ⚠️ BULLISH DIVERGENCE: Price falling but CVD rising. Hidden buying = potential reversal UP.
• ⚠️ BEARISH DIVERGENCE: Price rising but CVD falling. Hidden selling = potential reversal DOWN.
WICK ANALYSIS
Wick Torque:
Torque measures the "rotational force" from wicks. It's calculated from wick length, volume, and body efficiency.
• Positive Torque (Bullish): Bottom wick power dominates. Buyers defended lower prices.
• Negative Torque (Bearish): Top wick power dominates. Sellers defended higher prices.
• ⚡ High Torque (>30): Strong signal, significant wick rejection occurred.
Stop-Hunt Detection:
The engine detects when price has likely swept stop-losses clustered at key levels:
• Stop Hunt Risk %: Likelihood score (0-100). Above 55% = confirmed hunt.
• "Shorts hunted": Price swept below support, liquidating shorts, expect bounce UP.
• "Longs hunted": Price swept above resistance, liquidating longs, expect drop DOWN.
LIQUIDITY SWEEPS
This section appears only when a liquidity sweep is detected. The engine monitors for price sweeping recent highs/lows and then reversing:
• 🎯 LIQUIDITY SWEPT ABOVE: Price broke recent highs but closed back below. Longs trapped, expect DOWN.
• 🎯 LIQUIDITY SWEPT BELOW: Price broke recent lows but closed back above. Shorts trapped, expect UP.
POWER BALANCE
The Power Balance meter shows the real-time strength comparison between buyers and sellers.
Force Ratio:
• 0% = Complete seller dominance
• 50% = Perfect balance
• 100% = Complete buyer dominance
Visual Bar:
• Left side (▓): Bear territory
• Right side (▓): Bull territory
• The bar is smoothed over recent history to reduce noise.
EFFORT vs RESULT
This section measures the efficiency of price movement relative to volume expended.
Energy:
How much volume was spent relative to the average. Energy > 1.0x means above-average volume activity.
Ground:
How much price movement occurred relative to average range. Ground > 1.0x means above-average price movement.
STALL Warning:
A STALL is detected when high energy is spent but low ground is taken (high effort, low result). This often indicates institutional battle, exhaustion, or imminent reversal.
MARKET PHASE
The Phase Engine classifies the current market regime:
RANGE : No clear trend. Price confined to middle of channel. Low ADX. Balanced forces. Trade breakouts with caution.
BUILDING : Compression/preparation phase. Channel tightening or boundary penetration without follow-through. Watch for breakout direction.
TRENDING : Active directional move. Clear slope, good efficiency, price on trending side of channel. Favor pullback entries.
Strength:
0-100% score combining slope, volume validity, and force/efficiency filters.
Bars: How many candles the current phase has persisted.
TRACK RECORD (Validation Panel)
Enable with Show Validation Panel in settings. This section tracks the historical accuracy of scenario predictions:
Accuracy: Percentage of validated predictions that were correct.
Best/Worst Scenario: Shows which scenarios have the highest and lowest accuracy on the current symbol.
Recent Signals: Last 5 predictions with their outcomes. ✓ = correct, ✗ = wrong, ⏳ = pending validation.
⚙️ SETTINGS GUIDE
📊 Volume Analysis
Volume Calculation: Choose Geometry (estimates from candle shape) or Intrabar (precise LTF data).
Intrabar Resolution: LTF for precise mode. Try 1S, 15S, or 1T. Must be lower than chart timeframe.
History Depth: Candles stored in memory (5-50). Higher = more context, slower.
Memory Lookback: Bars for moving averages and Z-scores (10-100).
🏷️ Market Phase
Range Zone Width: How much of channel center is considered "range" (0.1-0.8).
Trend Sensitivity: Minimum slope to detect trending. Lower = more sensitive.

Big Trend Catcher: Dual-Gate EMA & ATR Trailing Swing TraderThe Big Trend Catcher: Long-Only Progressive Swing System
OVERVIEW
The Big Trend Catcher is a high-conviction, long-only swing trading strategy designed to identify and ride sustained market moves. Unlike traditional trend-following systems that often get "chopped out" during sideways consolidation, this strategy utilizes a Dual-Gate Filter to ensure you only enter when short-term momentum and the long-term trend are in total alignment.
It is specifically tuned for high-growth stocks and ETFs where capturing the lion’s share of a multi-week or multi-month move is the primary objective.
CORE LOGIC: THE DUAL-GATE SYSTEM
To maintain a high quality of entries, the strategy requires a "confirmed launch" through two distinct filters:
The Momentum Gate (20 EMA): Identifies immediate price acceleration and volume-backed impulse.
The Long-Term Gate (100 EMA): Acts as the ultimate trend filter. The script utilizes a "Signal Memory" logic—if an impulse happens while price is still below the 100 EMA, the trade is held in a "Pending" state. The entry only triggers once the price closes firmly above the 100 EMA.
Goal: This prevents "bottom fishing" in established downtrends and keeps you in cash during sideways "death loops" when the long-term direction is unclear.
KEY FEATURES
1. Progressive Pyramiding (Scale-In)
The biggest profits in swing trading are often made by adding to winners. This system features two automated scale-in triggers:
Velocity Adds (VOLC): Adds to the position if the stock is up >10% and moving with rising momentum, allowing you to build a larger position as the trend proves its strength.
Pullback Adds: Adds to the position when the price tests the 20 EMA and holds, allowing you to buy the "dip" within a healthy uptrend.
2. The Phoenix Re-Entry
This logic is designed to catch "V-shaped" recoveries. If the strategy exits on a trend break but the price aggressively reclaims the 20 EMA on massive volume shortly after, it re-enters the trade. This ensures you aren't left behind during the second leg of a major run after a temporary shakeout.
3. Iron-Floor ATR Exit
We use a 3.5x ATR Trailing Stop combined with the 100 EMA. This wider-than-average "breathing room" is designed to keep you in for significant gains while ignoring the minor daily volatility that often shakes out traders with tighter stops.
HOW TO USE
Best Timeframes: Daily (D) is recommended for identifying major cycles, but it can be applied to the 4-Hour (4H) for more active swing trading.
Settings:
* 20 EMA: Your short-term momentum guide.
* 100 EMA: Your long-term trend guide.
* ATR Multiplier: Set to 3.5 for maximum "trend hugging."
SUMMARY OF VISUALS
Blue Line (100 EMA): The Long-Term Trend.
Yellow Line (20 EMA): The Short-Term Momentum.
Red Stepped Line: Your ATR Trailing Floor (The "Iron Floor").
Lime Triangle: Initial Trade Entry.
Blue/Orange Shapes: Progressive Scale-in points.
Fibonacci Sequence Grid [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
A geometric price mapping tool that projects Fibonacci sequence levels and grid structures from recent price swings to help traders visualize natural expansion and reversion zones.
This indicator overlays Fibonacci-based structures directly on the chart, utilizing both grid projections and horizontal levels based on the classic Fibonacci integer sequence (0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, ...). It identifies recent swing highs or lows and builds precision-aligned levels based on the trend direction.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Uses the Fibonacci integer sequence (not ratios) to define distances from the most recent swing point.
Identifies a trend based on EMA cross of fast and slow periods.
Projects two types of Fibonacci tools:
A grid projection from the swing point, displaying multiple sloped levels based on the sequence.
A set of horizontal Fibonacci levels for clean structural references.
Levels can be plotted from either swing low or high depending on the current trend direction.
Adjustable “Size” inputs control spacing between levels for better price alignment.
Lookback period defines how far the script searches for recent swing extremes.
🔵 FEATURES
Fibonacci Grid Projection:
Draws two mirrored Fibonacci grids—one expanding away from the swing high/low, the other converging toward price.
Swing-Based Trend Detection:
Uses a fast/slow EMA crossover to determine trend direction and reference swing points for projections.
Fibonacci Sequence Levels:
Displays horizontal levels based on the Fibonacci number sequence (0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21...) for natural price targets.
Dynamic Labels and Coloring:
Each level is labeled with its sequence value and colored based on trend direction (e.g., red = downtrend, green = uptrend).
Both grids and levels can be toggled on/off independently.
Sizing controls allow tighter or looser clustering of levels depending on chart scale.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Enable Fibonacci Grid to visualize price expansion zones during impulsive trends.
Use Fibonacci Levels as horizontal support/resistance or target zones.
A label below price means the current trend is up and levels are projected from swing low.
A label above price means trend is down and levels are projected from swing high.
Adjust “Size” input to fit grid/level projection to your preferred chart scale or instrument volatility.
Use in confluence with price action, trend indicators, or volume tools for layered trading decisions.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Fibonacci Sequence Grid reimagines Fibonacci analysis using whole-number spacing from natural math progressions. Whether used for projecting grid-based expansions or horizontal support/resistance zones, it provides a powerful and intuitive structure to trade within. Perfect for traders who rely on symmetry, market geometry, and mathematically consistent levels.

Structural Trend Integrity Score (STIS)The Structural Trend Integrity Score (STIS) is a market regime and trend-quality indicator designed to evaluate the health and durability of a price trend, rather than its direction or momentum. Instead of focusing on overbought or oversold conditions, STIS measures whether a trend is structurally supported by consistent organization, persistence above trend, controlled pullbacks, and smooth progression.
STIS outputs a normalized score from 0 to 100, where higher values indicate stronger and more reliable trend structure, and lower values signal increasing fragility or structural breakdown. This makes it especially well suited for index funds and highly liquid markets, where trends tend to persist or fail based on internal structure rather than short-term price acceleration.
The indicator is intended to be used as a risk and confidence framework, not as a direct buy or sell signal. STIS helps traders and investors determine when it is efficient to maintain or increase exposure and when caution is warranted. It works best when paired with separate timing or entry tools and is particularly effective for long-only or trend-following strategies.
Accumulative Swing Cloud [MarkitTick]💡This indicator presents a modernized hybrid approach to J. Welles Wilder’s classical Accumulative Swing Index (ASI). While the traditional ASI is often viewed as a simple line oscillator used to confirm price breakouts, the Accumulative Swing Cloud reconstructs this concept into a dynamic trend-following system. By smoothing the raw ASI data into multiple moving average layers, this script creates a "Cloud" structure that visualizes the strength, direction, and momentum of the swing index, effectively treating the ASI value itself as a tradeable price action entity.
● Originality and Utility
The standard Accumulative Swing Index is a powerful tool for seeing through the "noise" of open, high, low, and close prices to find the real trend. However, looking at a raw ASI line can be jagged and difficult to interpret for sustained trends. This script innovates by applying "Cloud Dynamics" to the ASI. It calculates three distinct moving averages (Fast, Mid, and Slow) of the ASI value itself. The area between the Fast and Slow averages is filled with a dynamic gradient color. This allows traders to not only see the trend direction (Bullish or Bearish) but also gauge the volatility and strength of the move based on the expansion or contraction of the cloud's width. Additionally, this version introduces an optional Volume Integration feature, allowing the Swing Index calculations to be weighted by relative volume, giving more significance to moves backed by high market participation.
● Methodology and Calculations
The core of this indicator relies on the Swing Index calculation. It compares the current bar's Open, High, Low, and Close against the previous bar's values to derive a variable "R" (a measure of the market's range).
The script determines the largest price movement (K) among the High-Close, Low-Close, and High-Low ranges.
It calculates the "R" value based on the relationship between the daily range and the gap between the prior close and current open.
A Swing Index (SI) value is derived using the Limit Move value (T), the defined Multiplier, and the calculated R and K values.
This SI is accumulated into a running total (ASI State).
If Volume Integration is enabled, the SI is multiplied by a Volume Factor (Current Volume divided by Average Volume), capped at 3.0 to prevent outlier distortion.
● Visual Guide
The indicator plots several key visual elements on the chart:
Cloud Fast (Green Line): Represents the shorter-term moving average of the Accumulative Swing Index.
Cloud Slow (Red Line): Represents the longer-term moving average.
Cloud Fill (Gradient Area): The space between the Fast and Slow lines.
Green Gradient: Indicates the Fast MA is above the Slow MA (Bullish Trend).
Red Gradient: Indicates the Fast MA is below the Slow MA (Bearish Trend).
Gradient Intensity: The opacity of the color scales dynamically based on the width of the cloud relative to its recent historical maximum. A wider cloud (stronger trend/higher volatility) appears more solid, while a narrow cloud appears more transparent.
ASI Line (Color-Coded Line): The thick line represents the current raw Accumulative Swing Index value. It changes color (Green/Red) based on its position relative to the Signal Line.
Signal Line (Gray Line): A Simple Moving Average of the ASI Line, acting as a trigger for immediate reversals.
Bar Coloring: The main price candles are colored to match the current state of the Cloud (Green for Bullish Cloud, Red for Bearish Cloud).
● How to Use
Trend Identification: Use the Cloud color to determine the primary trend. A Green Cloud suggests an uptrending market structure, while a Red Cloud suggests a downtrend.
Entry Signals: Traders often look for the "ASI Line" to cross the "Signal Line" in the direction of the Cloud. For example, if the Cloud is Green, a crossover of the ASI Line above the Signal Line is a bullish confirmation.
Cloud Crossovers: A crossover of the Fast and Slow Cloud lines represents a major structural shift in the Accumulative Swing Index trend.
Volatility Filter: Pay attention to the gradient intensity. A very narrow (transparent) cloud indicates low momentum or consolidation, while a widening (solid) cloud indicates expanding momentum.
● Inputs and Settings
ASI Core Engine: Configure the Daily Limit (T) and Multiplier to tune the sensitivity of the Swing Index calculation.
Volume Integration: Toggle "Weight ASI by Volume" to factor in volume spikes. Adjust "Volume Avg Length" to define the baseline volume.
Cloud Dynamics: Choose the Moving Average type (EMA, SMA, RMA, WMA) and set the Fast, Mid, and Slow lengths to customize the cloud's reactivity.
Visual Enhancements: Toggle "Color Candles by Cloud Width" to apply the gradient coloring directly to the price bars.

Next Candle PredictorAdvanced TradingView Indicator for Precise Buy and Sell Signals
Overview:
The Predicta Futures - Next Candle Predictor is a cutting-edge TradingView indicator designed to forecast the next candle's direction in futures and cryptocurrency markets. Leveraging a multi-indicator confluence strategy, this tool provides traders with actionable long and short prediction percentages, enhanced by dynamic ADX-based thresholds and visual projection candles. Ideal for scalping, day trading, or swing trading on platforms like MEXC or Binance futures, it combines Supertrend, MACD, RSI, Stochastic, ADX, and volume analysis to deliver high-probability buy and sell signals while minimizing false positives.
Key Features:
* Multi-Indicator Confluence Scoring: Integrates Supertrend for trend direction, EMAs (8, 21, 50) for alignment, MACD for momentum crossovers, RSI for overbought/oversold conditions, Stochastic for divergence detection, ADX for trend strength, and volume ratios for confirmation. A customizable confluence score (0-6) ensures signals meet user-defined criteria, reducing whipsaws in volatile markets.
* Dynamic Prediction Thresholds: ADX-driven adjustments lower the required prediction percentage (e.g., 60% in strong trends) for "PERFECT TIME" entries, adapting to market conditions like ranging or trending phases.
* Visual Analysis Table: A sleek, color-coded dashboard displays progress bars for each indicator, prediction percentages, and status (e.g., "PERFECT TIME" or "WAIT"). Supports long and short analyses with intuitive ASCII bars for quick scans.
* Projection Candles: Simulates potential next-candle outcomes with volatility-scaled (via Bollinger Bands width) green long and red short candles, aiding in visualizing price targets.
Buy/Sell Signals and Alerts: Generates labeled "BUY" and "SELL" arrows on EMA crossovers within confirmed trends, with separate alerts for basic signals and high-confluence "PERFECT TIME" opportunities.
* Customizable Inputs: Adjust ATR periods, Supertrend factors, minimum confluence scores, and volume ratios to tailor the indicator for stocks, forex, or crypto perpetual futures.
How It Works:
This TradingView script calculates long and short scores using weighted contributions from key indicators, normalizing them into prediction percentages. A confluence check—factoring trend, EMA alignment, MACD, Stochastic, volume, and ADX—triggers "PERFECT TIME" only when conditions align robustly. For example:
In a downtrend (Supertrend red), with bearish MACD and Stochastic, and sufficient volume, the indicator highlights short opportunities.
Dynamic thresholds ensure aggressive entries in strong trends (ADX >25) and conservative ones in weak trends.
Backtested for reliability, it excels in identifying reversals and continuations, making it a must-have for traders seeking an edge in futures trading strategies.
Usage Instructions:
1. Add the indicator to your TradingView chart.
2. Customize settings via the inputs panel (e.g., set minConfluence to 5 for stricter signals).
3. Monitor the analysis table for predictions and confluence scores.
4. Act on "BUY/SELL" labels or "PERFECT TIME" alerts, combining with your risk management.
5. Enable projection candles for visual forecasting of the next bar.
Compatible with all timeframes, from 1-minute scalping to daily swings. Note: This is not financial advice; always verify signals with additional analysis.

Kijun Sen Standard Deviation | QuantLapse SystemsOverview
The Kijun Sen Standard Deviation indicator by QuantLapse Systems is a volatility-aware trend-following framework that combines the structural equilibrium of the Kijun Sen (基準線) with statistically adaptive standard deviation bands.
By anchoring trend detection to market structure and confirming direction through volatility expansion, the indicator delivers a cleaner, more reliable regime classification across varying market conditions.
Rather than reacting to short-term noise, the system focuses on identifying statistically justified trend phases , making it well-suited for disciplined, rule-based trading.
Technical Composition, Calculation, Key Components & Features
📌 Kijun Sen (基準線) – Structural Trend Baseline
Calculated as the midpoint between the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined period.
Represents market equilibrium and structural balance rather than short-term momentum.
Naturally adapts to expanding and contracting price ranges.
Provides a stable baseline for regime detection and volatility validation.
Acts as the anchor for deviation bands and persistent trend-state logic.
Unlike fast or reactive moving averages, the Kijun Sen emphasizes price structure and equilibrium , making it especially effective for higher-quality trend confirmation.
📌 Volatility Adjustment – Standard Deviation Bands
Standard deviation is calculated over a configurable lookback to measure current price dispersion.
Upper and lower envelopes are formed by applying a deviation multiplier to the Kijun Sen.
Band width expands during volatility surges and contracts during consolidation.
Creates proportional, volatility-aware thresholds instead of static offsets.
Visually represents market energy through expanding and compressing channels.
These adaptive bands ensure that trend signals only occur when volatility supports directional movement.
📌 Trend Signal & Regime Calculation
Bullish Trend is confirmed when price closes above the upper deviation band.
Bearish Trend is confirmed when price closes below the lower deviation band.
Once established, the trend state persists until an opposing volatility break occurs.
This persistence reduces whipsaws and improves regime stability.
Trend state is reinforced with color-coded lines, envelopes, and background shading.
This volatility-confirmed persistence model is visible in the chart, where trends remain intact through minor pullbacks and only flip on decisive expansion.
How It Works in Trading
✅ Volatility-Confirmed Trend Detection – Requires expansion beyond deviation bands.
✅ Noise Suppression – Filters low-energy price movement within volatility envelopes.
✅ Regime Persistence – Maintains trend state until statistical invalidation.
✅ Immediate Visual Context – Direction, strength, and transitions are clear at a glance.
Visual Representation
Trend signals are displayed directly on price using both line and background context:
🟢 Green / Teal Kijun & Envelope → Confirmed bullish regime.
🔴 Red / Pink Kijun & Envelope → Confirmed bearish regime.
Semi-transparent band fill visualizes volatility expansion and compression.
Buy and Sell labels appear only on confirmed regime transitions.
The lower panel includes:
Strategy equity curve based on trend exposure.
Buy & Hold equity for performance comparison.
Background regime shading synchronized with trend state.
Features and User Inputs
The Kijun Sen Standard Deviation framework offers a focused yet powerful set of configurable inputs:
Kijun Sen Length – Controls structural trend sensitivity.
Standard Deviation Controls – Adjust lookback length and multiplier for regime strictness.
Backtesting & Date Filters – Define evaluation periods and starting conditions.
Display Options – Toggle labels, equity curves, and background shading.
Color Customization – Fully configurable buy/sell colors for trends and equity curves.
These controls allow users to balance responsiveness, stability, and clarity without overfitting.
Practical Applications
The Kijun Sen Standard Deviation indicator is designed for traders who prioritize structure, volatility confirmation, and regime awareness.
Primary Trend Filtering – Identify and stay aligned with dominant market direction.
Volatility-Aware Trend Following – Participate only when price expansion confirms intent.
Risk-Managed Exposure – Avoid chop during compression and transitional phases.
Systematic Strategy Development – Use as a regime engine or higher-timeframe filter.
Performance Evaluation – Compare trend-following equity against buy-and-hold benchmarks.
This framework bridges classical Ichimoku structure with modern statistical validation.
Conclusion
The Kijun Sen Standard Deviation indicator by QuantLapse Systems represents a refined evolution of Ichimoku-based trend analysis.
By integrating the structural equilibrium of the Kijun Sen with adaptive standard deviation confirmation, the system delivers clearer regime classification, reduced noise, and more reliable trend participation.
Rather than attempting to predict price, it focuses on confirming when trends are statistically justified .
Who should use Kijun Sen Standard Deviation:
📊 Trend-Following Traders – Stay aligned with dominant market structure.
⚡ Momentum & Swing Traders – Enter only on volatility-backed expansions.
🤖 Systematic & Algorithmic Traders – Ideal as a regime filter or trend-state engine.
Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Disclaimer: All trading involves risk, and no indicator can guarantee profitability.
Strategic Advice: Always backtest thoroughly, optimize parameters responsibly, and align settings with your timeframe, asset class, and risk tolerance before live deployment.

Swing Trading IndicatorThis script is a swing‑trading dashboard designed for BTC, ETH, S&P 500 (for now). It combines weekly RSI, USDT.D, VIX, moving averages and Fisher Transform into a single visual tool, with background highlights, an on‑chart info table and ready‑made alerts to help you time high‑probability swing entries and manage risk.
1. Overview
The indicator is intended to work on daily timeframe.
Signals are context‑aware: BTC and ETH get USDT.D conditions, SPX gets VIX and EMA‑100 logic, and all non‑ETH symbols can also use Fisher Transform as a mean‑reversion filter.
2. Conditions and background highlights
Each component sets a boolean condition and, when active, paints a background layer:
Weekly RSI condition
True when weekly RSI is below its symbol‑specific threshold.
USDT.D conditions
BTC: triggered when USDT.D is above the user threshold and the chart symbol is BTC.
ETH: same logic for ETH, but tracked separately..
VIX condition (SPX only)
True when VIX high is at or above the VIX threshold while the chart is SPX.
EMA condition (BTC & SPX)
BTC: daily close below EMA‑200.
SPX: daily close below EMA‑100.
Fisher Transform condition (non‑ETH)
Fisher Transform on the chart timeframe, using the configured period.
True when Fisher value is below the Fisher threshold.
3. Intended use and notes
This indicator is designed as a confluence tool for swing traders, not a standalone buy/sell system. It works best on assets that are in a clear uptrend, where the main idea is to accumulate during corrections within that broader bullish structure.
During larger market shocks, deep corrections, or black‑swan events, trend‑based and mean‑reversion filters can produce false signals, because volatility and correlations often behave abnormally in those periods. For that reason, this script should always be combined with independent risk management, higher‑timeframe trend analysis, and your own discretion.

Bollinger Bands Delta Matrix Analytics [BDMA] Bollinger Bands Delta Matrix Analytics (BDMA) v7.0
Deep Kinetic Engine – 5x8 Volatility & Delta Decision Matrix
1. Introduction & Concept
Bollinger Bands Delta Matrix Analytics (BDMA) v7.0 is an analytical framework that merges:
- Spatial analysis via Bollinger Bands (%B location),
- with a 4-factor Deep Kinetic Engine based on:
• Total Volume
• Buy Volume
• Sell Volume
• Delta (Buy – Sell) Z-Scores
and converts them into an expanded 5×8 decision matrix that continuously tracks where price is trading and how the underlying orderflow is behaving.
BDMA is not a trading system or strategy. It does not generate entry/exit signals.
Instead, it provides a structured contextual map of volatility, volume, and delta so traders can:
- identify climactic extensions vs. fakeouts,
- distinguish strong initiative moves vs. passive absorption,
- and detect squeezes, traps, and liquidity voids with a unified visual dashboard.
2. Spatial Engine – Bollinger S-States (S1–S5)
The spatial dimension of BDMA comes from classic Bollinger Bands.
Price location is expressed as Percent B (%B) and mapped into 5 spatial states (S-States):
S1 – Hyper Extension (Above Upper Band)
Price has pushed beyond the upper Bollinger Band.
Often associated with parabolic or blow-off behavior, late-stage momentum, and elevated reversal risk.
S2 – Resistance Test (Upper Zone)
Price trades in the upper Bollinger region but remains inside the bands.
Represents a sustained test of resistance, typically within an established or emerging uptrend.
S3 – Neutral Zone (Middle)
Price hovers around the mid-band.
This is the mean reversion gravity field where the market often consolidates or transitions between regimes.
S4 – Support Test (Lower Zone)
Price trades in the lower Bollinger region but inside the bands.
Represents a sustained test of support within range or downtrend structures.
S5 – Hyper Drop (Below Lower Band)
Price extends below the lower Bollinger Band.
Often aligned with panic, forced liquidations, or capitulation-type behavior, with increased snap-back risk.
These 5 S-States define the vertical axis (rows) of the BDMA matrix.
3. Deep Kinetic Engine – 4-Factor Z-Score & D-States (D1–D8)
The Deep Kinetic Engine transforms raw volume and delta into standardized Z-Scores to measure how abnormal current activity is relative to its recent history.
For each bar:
- Raw Buy Volume is estimated from the candle’s position within its range
- Raw Sell Volume is complementary to buy volume
- Raw Delta = Buy Volume – Sell Volume
- Total Volume = Buy Volume + Sell Volume
These 4 series are then normalized using a unified Z-Score lookback to produce:
1. Z_Vol_Total – overall activity and liquidity intensity
2. Z_Vol_Buy – aggression from buyers (attack)
3. Z_Vol_Sell – aggression from sellers (defense or attack)
4. Z_Delta – net victory of one side over the other
Thresholds for Extreme, Significant, and Neutral Z-Score levels are fully configurable, allowing you to tune the sensitivity of the kinetic states.
Using Z_Vol_Total and Z_Delta (plus threshold logic), BDMA assigns one of 8 Deep Kinetic states (D-States):
D1 – Climax Buy
Extreme Total Volume + Extreme Positive Delta → Buying climax or blow-off behavior.
D2 – Strong Buy
High Volume + High Positive Delta → Confirmed bullish initiative activity.
D3 – Weak Buy / Fakeout
Low Volume + High Positive Delta → Bullish delta without commitment, low-liquidity breakout risk.
D4 – Absorption / Conflict
High Volume + Neutral Delta → Aggressive two-way trade, strong absorption, war zone behavior.
D5 – Neutral
Low Volume + Neutral Delta → Low-energy environment with low conviction.
D6 – Weak Sell / Fakeout
Low Volume + High Negative Delta → Bearish delta without commitment, low-liquidity breakdown risk.
D7 – Strong Sell
High Volume + High Negative Delta → Confirmed bearish initiative activity.
D8 – Capitulation
Extreme Volume + Extreme Negative Delta → Panic selling or capitulation regime.
These 8 D-States define the horizontal axis (columns) of the BDMA matrix.
4. The 5×8 BDMA Decision Matrix
The core of BDMA is a 5×8 matrix where:
- Rows (1–5) = Spatial S-States (S1…S5)
- Columns (1–8) = Kinetic D-States (D1…D8)
Each of the 40 possible combinations (SxDy) is pre-computed and mapped to:
- a Status or Regime Title (for example: Climax Breakout, Bear Trap Spring, Capitulation Breakdown),
- a Bias (Climactic Bull, Neutral, Strong Bear, Conflict or Reversal Risk, and similar labels),
- and a Strategic Signal or Consideration (for example: High reversal risk, Wait for confirmation, Low probability zone – avoid).
Internally, BDMA resolves all 40 regimes so the current state can be displayed on the dashboard without performance overhead.
5. Key Regime Families (How to Read the Matrix)
5.1. Breakouts and Breakdowns
Climax Breakout (Top-side)
Spatial S1 with Kinetic D1 or D2
Bias: Explosive or Extreme Bull
Signal:
- Strong or climactic upside extension with abnormal bullish orderflow.
- Trend continuation is possible, but reversal risk is extremely high after blow-off phases.
Low-Conviction Breakout (Fakeout Risk)
S1 with D3 (Weak Buy, low liquidity)
Bias: Weak Bull – Caution
Signal:
- Breakout not supported by volume.
- Elevated risk of failed auction or bull trap.
Capitulation Breakdown (Bottom-side)
Spatial S5 with Kinetic D8
Bias: Climactic Bear (panic)
Signal:
- Capitulation-type selling or forced liquidations.
- Trend can still proceed, but snap-back or violent short-covering risk is high.
Initiative Breakdown vs. Weak Breakdown
- Strong, high-volume breakdown typically corresponds to D7 (Strong Sell).
- Low-volume breakdown often corresponds to D6 (Weak Sell or Fakeout) with potential for failure.
5.2. Absorption, Traps and Springs
Absorption at Resistance (Top-side conflict)
S1 or S2 with D4 (Absorption or Conflict)
Bias: Conflict – Extreme Tension
Signal:
- Heavy two-way trade near resistance.
- Potential distribution or reversal if sellers begin to dominate.
Bull Trap or Failed Auction
Typically S1 with D6 (Weak Sell breakdown behavior after a top-side attempt)
Indicates a breakout attempt that fails and reverses, often after poor liquidity structure.
Absorption at Support and Bear Trap (Spring)
S4 or S5 with D4 or D3
Bias: Conflict or Weak Bear – Reversal Risk
Signal:
- Aggressive buying into lows (spring or shakeout behavior).
- Potential bear trap if price reclaims lost territory.
5.3. Trend Phases
Strong Uptrend Phases
Typically seen when S2–S3 combine with strong bullish kinetic behavior.
Bias: Strong or Extreme Bull
Signal:
- Pullbacks into S3 or S4 with supportive kinetic states often act as trend continuation zones.
Strong Downtrend Phases
Typically seen when S3–S4 combine with strong bearish kinetic behavior.
Bias: Strong or Extreme Bear
Signal:
- Rallies into resistance with strong bearish kinetic backing may act as continuation sell zones.
5.4. Neutral, Exhaustion and Squeeze
Exhaustion or Liquidity Void
S1 or S5 with D5 (Neutral kinetics)
Bias: Neutral or Exhaustion
Signal:
- Spatial extremes without kinetic confirmation.
- Often marks the end of a move, with poor follow-through.
Choppy, Low-Activity Range
S3 with D5
Bias: Neutral
Signal:
- Low volume, low conviction market.
- Typically a low-probability environment where standing aside can be logical.
Squeeze or High-Tension Zone
S3 with D4 or tightly clustered kinetic values
Bias: Conflict or High Tension
Signal:
- Hidden battle inside a volatility contraction.
- Often precedes large directionally-biased moves.
6. Dashboard Layout & Reading Guide
When Show Dashboard is enabled, BDMA displays:
1. Title and Status Line
Name of the current regime (for example: Climax Breakout, Bear Trap Spring, Mean Reversion).
2. Bias Line
Plain-language summary of directional context such as Climactic Bull, Strong Bear, Neutral, or Conflict and Reversal Risk.
3. Signal or Strategic Notes
Concise guidance focused on risk and context, not entries. For example:
- High reversal risk – aggressive traders only
- Wait for confirmation (break or rejection)
- Low probability zone – avoid taking new positions
4. Kinetic Profile (4-Factor Z-Score)
Shows the current Z-Scores for Total Volume (Activity), Buy Volume (Attack), Sell Volume (Defense), and Delta (Net Result).
5. Matrix Heatmap (5×8)
Visual representation of S-State vs. D-State with color coding:
- Bullish clusters in a green spectrum
- Bearish clusters in a red spectrum
- Conflict or exhaustion zones in yellow, amber, or neutral tones
The dashboard can be repositioned (top right, middle right, or bottom right) and its size can be adjusted (Tiny, Small, Normal, or Large) to fit different layouts.
7. Inputs & Customization
7.1. Core Parameters (Bollinger and Z-Score)
- Bollinger Length and Standard Deviation define the spatial engine.
- Z-Score Lookback (All Factors) defines how many bars are used to normalize volume and delta.
7.2. Deep Kinetic Thresholds
- Extreme Threshold defines what is considered climactic (D1 or D8).
- Significant Threshold distinguishes strong initiative vs. weak or fakeout behavior.
- Neutral Threshold is the band within which delta is treated as neutral.
These thresholds allow you to tune the sensitivity of the kinetic classification to fit different timeframes or instruments.
7.3. Calculation Method (Volume Delta)
Geometry (Approx)
- Fast, non-repainting approach based on candle geometry.
- Suitable for most users and real-time decision-making.
Intrabar (Precise)
- Uses lower-timeframe data for more precise volume delta estimation.
- Intrabar mode can repaint and requires compatible data and plan support on the platform.
- Best used for post-analysis or research, not blind automation.
7.4. Visuals and Interface
- Toggle Bollinger Bands visibility on or off.
- Switch between Dark and Light color themes.
- Configure dashboard visibility, matrix heatmap display, position, and size.
8. Multi-Language Semantic Engine (Asia and Middle East Focus)
BDMA v7.0 includes a fully integrated multi-language layer, targeting a wide geographic user base.
Supported Languages:
English, Türkçe, Русский, 简体中文, हिन्दी, العربية, فارسی, עברית
All dashboard labels, regime titles, bias descriptions, and signal texts are dynamically translated via an internal dictionary, while semantic meaning is kept consistent across languages.
This makes BDMA suitable for multi-language communities, study groups, and educational content across different regions.
However, due to the heavy computational load of the Deep Kinetic Engine and TradingView’s strict Pine Script execution limits, it was not possible to expand support to additional languages. Adding more translation layers would significantly increase memory usage and exceed runtime constraints. For this reason, the current language set represents the maximum optimized configuration achievable without compromising performance or stability.
9. Practical Usage Notes
BDMA is most powerful when used as a contextual overlay on top of market structure (HH, HL, LH, LL), higher-timeframe trend, key levels, and your own execution framework.
Recommended usage:
- Identify the current regime (Status and Bias).
- Check whether price location (S-State) and kinetic behavior (D-State) agree with your trade idea.
- Be especially cautious in climactic and absorption or conflict zones, where volatility and risk can be elevated.
Avoid treating BDMA as an automatic green equals buy, red equals sell tool.
The real edge comes from understanding where you are in the volatility or kinetic spectrum, not from forcing signals out of the matrix.
10. Limitations & Important Warnings
BDMA does not predict the future.
It organizes current and recent data into a structured context.
Volume data quality depends on the underlying symbol, exchange, and broker feed.
Forex, crypto, indices, and stocks may all behave differently.
Intrabar mode can repaint and is sensitive to lower-timeframe data availability and your plan type.
Use it with extra caution and primarily for research.
No indicator can remove the need for clear trading rules, disciplined risk management, and psychological control.
