ORB 30 Alerts (ATH)Overview
ATH ORB 30m automates the Opening Range Breakout (ORB) process across multiple global sessions — Tokyo, London, and New York — and delivers clean, consolidated alerts when fresh breakouts occur.
It’s built for traders who track several tickers and want precise, non-repeating signals that reflect genuine momentum shifts, not constant noise.
How it works
The script defines a 30-minute Opening Range (ORB) for each enabled session and plots its high, low, and midpoint levels.
Every 10-minute candle close is evaluated to detect first-time crosses of those range boundaries — upward or downward.
Once a breakout triggers, that side’s alert is disabled until price returns inside the range, where the system automatically re-arms.
Multiple triggers in the same bar are batched into one combined alert, listing all symbols that broke out.
A built-in debug panel and optional chart labels visualize each trigger and re-arm event in real time.
Key features
-Multi-session ORB logic (Tokyo, London, New York)
-10-minute confirmation filter to validate breakouts
-Automatic alert re-arming when price re-enters range
-Combined per-bar alert messages (no duplicates)
-Optional on-chart labels and debug diagnostics
-Optimized for watchlists and multi-symbol scanners
Usage
Designed for day traders and momentum scalpers, this tool highlights early directional strength during market opens.
Add it to your chart, enable your preferred sessions, and set alert conditions for “ORB Breakouts (BUY),” “ORB Breakdowns (SELL),” or "Any alert() function call" You’ll receive one concise message each bar showing exactly which symbols broke out and in which direction.

Actionable Signals: Hammers, Shooters, and Inside Bars#TheStrat Actionable Signals
This indicator automatically detects hammers, shooters, and inside bars, which are key reversal and continuation patterns that can signal actionable trading opportunities. These 'Actionable Signals' are based on #TheStrat methodology developed by Rob Smith.
This indicator allows you to use a 'Classic' hammer/shooter definition as well as to customize hammer/shooter candle proportions to your liking.
Pattern Types
Classic Hammer/Shooter - Traditional pin bar pattern featuring a small body (≤30% of range) positioned at the extreme with a long dominant wick (3x+ body ratio). The most widely recognized reversal signal.
Custom Hammer/Shooter - Fully adjustable pattern parameters allowing you to fine-tune detection criteria for your specific trading strategy and timeframe preferences.
Paddle - Strong momentum bar with a large body (up to 85%) closing within 5% of the extreme. Identifies continuation moves with conviction. Color-validated (green hammers, red shooters).
Rejection - Wick-dominant pattern showing price rejection at extremes. Features moderate body (≤60%) with strong rejection wick (≥40%). Color-agnostic for flexibility.
Inside Bar - Bar contained entirely within the previous bar's range, signaling consolidation and potential breakout setups.
Key Features
Multi-Pattern Detection: Enable multiple pattern types simultaneously to capture different market structures
Pivot Validation: Optional swing high/low requirement ensures patterns occur at meaningful inflection points
Session Filtering: Restrict signals to specific trading sessions across multiple timezones
Visual Clarity: Color-coded markers distinguish between pattern types (customize via Style settings)
Testing Panel: Built-in debugging tool displays detailed bar analysis for fine-tuning detection parameters
How to Use
Default Settings: Start with Classic, Paddle, and Rejection patterns enabled for balanced signal generation
Pivot Filter: Keep "Require Swing High/Low" enabled to focus on patterns at key support/resistance levels
Customization: Adjust pattern strictness parameters based on your timeframe and trading style
Colors: Modify marker colors and styles through the Style tab for optimal chart visibility
Testing Panel: Enable to see why patterns are or aren't triggering on specific bars
Please share any issues you encounter, it will help improve the script for everyone!
Note: This indicator displays historical patterns and should be used as part of a comprehensive trading strategy. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

#TheStrat Multi-Timeframe In-Force Signals, Failed 2's, and FTFCThis indicator combines #TheStrat concepts of bar combinations, in-force signals, and timeframe continuity with 'Failed 2's' which can be early indication of a trend reversal.
It’s designed to help identify the prevailing trend but also reversal points when timeframe-based ranges are reclaimed because a signal failed or went out-of-force.
Core Concepts
1. TheStrat Bar Types
• 1 (Inside Bar): High ≤ previous high and Low ≥ previous low.
• 2U (Two Up): High > previous high and Low ≥ previous low.
• 2D (Two Down): Low < previous low and High ≤ previous high.
• 3 (Outside Bar): High > previous high and Low < previous low.
2. Failed 2’s — Definition & Detection
A Failed 2 occurs when a directional break (2U or 2D) reverses before following through.
This script lets you choose from four failure-definition modes:
1. Open — A 2U fails if last price is below open; a 2D fails if last price is above open.
2. Reclaim — A 2U or 2D fails if last price is within the previous bar’s range.
3. Both — Both of the above conditions must be met.
4. Either — Either condition must be met.
Failed 2U setups are bearish; Failed 2D setups are bullish.
You can also enable FTFC Override, which ignores reclaim-type failures when all higher timeframes are in full agreement with the current trend.
3. Timeframe Continuity (TFC)
TFC measures directional agreement across multiple timeframes.
• Full TFC (FTFC) Up: All selected timeframes above their opens.
• Full TFC (FTFC) Down: All selected timeframes below their opens.
• Mixed or neutral conditions are also displayed.
The indicator tracks classic TFC and supports trend-flip alerts when full agreement changes direction.
Features
• Customizable TFC table showing bar types, failed status, in-force status, reclaims, and direction arrows.
• Automatic bar coloring for TFC alignment, failed-2 transitions, or neutral states.
• Alerts for TFC trend flips.
• Multi-timeframe scanning with selectable intervals.
• Option to highlight bars that trigger a TFC flip due to failed-2 events.
Use Cases
• Quickly gauge market bias across multiple timeframes
• Identify failed 2 reversals against higher timeframes
• Spot potential turning points when trend flips occur
Limitations
This is a tool which can give earlier indication of trend reversals but is highly dependent on selected timeframes. This is discretionary, but having a range of higher and lower timeframes works best. In many cases, it will give the same trend 'flip' that classic FTFC would (based on open).
Ranges are based on timeframes, not swing highs and lows. The selected timeframes must capture the swing high or low to show a 'range' reclaim.
Timeframes lower than the display timeframe cannot be accurately shown due to PineScript limitations. They are 'greyed out' and not included in calculations or displays.
This script is based on the FTFC indicator by TradeForOpportunity with deep gratitude. It has been modified and expanded with permission under MPL 2.0.
Inside Bar Coloring (Real-time + Historical) w/ AlertsDescription
This Pine Script v6 indicator identifies and colors inside bars, whose entire range (high and low) stays within the previous bar's range. It gives the option to color the real-time bar as well as historical inside bars.
Inside bars are colored differently based on whether they close above or below their opening price (bullish vs bearish). The indicator offers flexible display options including real-time-only highlighting, historical inside bar visualization with transparency, and optional triangle markers for enhanced visibility.
Utility
Inside bars represent periods of market consolidation and reduced volatility, and are by nature consolidating. During this equilibrium, it can be valuable to observe price development rather than engage with it. Conversely, a break of the equilibrium often marks a shift in volatility and provides opportunity. This indicator provides instant visual identification of this price action on your chart.
Features
Smart Coloring System: Separate colors for bullish (close ≥ open) and bearish (close < open) inside bars
Flexible Display Modes: Show only real-time bar, all historical bars, or customize transparency levels
Visual Markers: Optional triangles above or below inside bars
Real-time Alerts: Configurable alerts notify you when new inside bars form
Optimized Performance: Efficient Pine Script v6 code with minimal resource usage
Open Source: Released under Mozilla Public License 2.0
Settings
Customizable colors for bullish/bearish inside bars (real-time and historical)
Toggle historical inside bar display
Real-time bar only mode for clean charts
Adjustable marker position (above/below bars)
Alert activation with detailed price information

SHYY TFC Candles_Confirmation X 4TF)SHYY Real-Time FTC Confirmation is a multi-timeframe trend alignment tool designed to provide real-time confirmation of market direction across up to four configurable timeframes. Unlike traditional tools that rely on closed candles, this version uses in-progress bars to detect live momentum, allowing traders to respond as trends are forming rather than after they are confirmed.
This script checks the current price direction on each selected timeframe by comparing the current close to the open of the same candle. A timeframe is considered bullish if the close is above the open, bearish if below, and neutral if equal. If all enabled timeframes are aligned in the same direction, the current chart candle is colored accordingly.
White candles indicate that all selected timeframes are currently bullish. Yellow candles indicate that all selected timeframes are currently bearish. If the timeframes are not fully aligned, the candle remains uncolored.
Each of the four timeframes can be configured individually in the settings panel. Users can also enable or disable each timeframe independently using checkboxes, allowing flexibility in how the confirmation logic is applied.
The script uses a single request.security() call per timeframe with lookahead enabled, so that the information shown reflects the live status of each timeframe’s bar, not just completed ones. This makes it suitable for real-time decision-making and strategy filtering.
This tool can assist scalpers, trend followers, and breakout traders in aligning trades with broader market direction. It can be used as a standalone trend filter or in conjunction with other indicators and strategies.
No external dependencies or overlays are required.
This is an original script, built to provide real-time, multi-timeframe confirmation using a clean and efficient approach.
The Strat The Strat Bar Type Identifier – Pure Price Action Logic
This open-source indicator implements the foundational bar classification of "The Strat" method developed by Rob Smith. It identifies each candle on the chart as one of the three core types used in The Strat:
* Inside Bar (1): The candle’s range is fully within the previous candle’s range. This indicates consolidation or balance and often precedes breakouts or reversals.
* Two-Up Bar (2U): The current candle breaks the previous high but does not break its low. This is considered bullish directional movement.
* Two-Down Bar (2D): The current candle breaks the previous low but not the high. This signals bearish directional movement.
* Outside Bar (3): The candle breaks both the high and the low of the previous candle, signaling a broadening formation and high volatility.
The script plots a character below each candle based on its type:
* "1" for Inside Bar
* "2" for Two-Up or Two-Down (color-coded)
* "3" for Outside Bar
This tool helps traders quickly identify actionable setups according to The Strat method and serves as a foundation for more advanced strategies like the 3-1-2 reversal or 1-2-2 continuation.
All calculations are based purely on price action—no indicators, no smoothing, no lagging elements. It is ideal for traders looking to understand price structure and bar sequencing from a Strat perspective.
To use:
1. Add the indicator to any chart and timeframe.
2. Look for the numbers below the candles.
3. Analyze the sequence of bar types to spot Strat setups.
This script is educational and can be extended with multi-timeframe context, FTFC logic, actionable signals, or broadening formation detection.
Clean, minimal, and faithful to the core principles of The Strat.
Multi-Timeframe High/Low MarkerDescription
This indicator displays the previous period's high and low price levels from up to three different timeframes simultaneously. Lines extend from the previous period through the current period, providing clear visual reference points for key price levels across multiple time horizons.
Utility
Identify price ranges and key levels from multiple periods.Reduce chart switching by displaying multiple ranges on a single chart.
Function
Track up to 3 different timeframes simultaneously (default: 1H, 4H, Daily)
Customize each timeframe's high and low line colors, width, and style (solid/dashed/dotted)
Optional current period opening price display for each timeframe
Smart overlap detection prevents duplicate lines when multiple timeframes share the same price level
Each timeframe can be individually enabled or disabled
All visual elements fully customizable through indicator settings
Live Inside Bar ColoringDescription
This script colors the current bar if it is inside the prior bar's high and low. Inside is defined as ≤ the high, and ≥ the low of the prior bar.
Utility
This gives a quick visual indication if the current bar is inside. This can indicate a choppier market. By definition, an inside bar is consolidating and not trending.
Function
Colors distinguish if the current price is above the opening price of the inside bar on a given timeframe. If you do not want to distinguish this, you can set both colors the same.
Failed 2s - The StratDescription:
This indicator detects and highlights "Failed 2" candlestick patterns from The Strat methodology — key price action setups signaling potential reversals or continuation points. It automatically identifies Failed 2 Down (Failed 2D) and Failed 2 Up (Failed 2U) signals by analyzing two consecutive bars, with special attention to price interaction at the 50% midpoint of the previous candle.
Visuals:
- Green upward triangles mark Failed 2 Down signals (bullish setups).
- Red downward triangles mark Failed 2 Up signals (bearish setups).
- Special signals that touch the 50% midpoint of the previous candle are emphasized but use the same shapes.
Alerts:
Built-in alert conditions let you receive notifications when these patterns occur, so you never miss a trade opportunity.
How to Use ALERTS in TradingView
- Paste this code into Pine Editor on TradingView.
- Click Add to Chart.
Set alerts:
- Click "Alerts" → "Condition" = your indicator name
- Choose the alert type (e.g. "Failed 2D Bar Alert")
- Set "Once per bar close"
- Customize the notification method (pop-up, app, email, etc.)
Failed 2D & Failed 2U BarsI created this indicator to plot a triangle when a candle is either 1) a failed 2 down--the candle breaks the low of the prior candle but closes green (or higher than its opening price) and doesn't break the high of the previous candle; and 2) a failed 2 up--high of the prior candle is broken but the bar is red and does not break the low of the prior candle.
It has alerts which you can set up in the alert system.
I think that this candle is one of the most telling and powerful when it comes to candle analysis.
R.I.P. Rob Smith, Creator of The Strat.
Multi-Timeframe Candles HistogramsAt some community members' requests, I have built on the original code to make it a single indicator with the option for users to check off which timeframes they want to be shown. Choices are 1-hour, daily, weekly, and monthly.
I couldn't figure out how to separate each timeframe into its own histogram, so this is the best I can offer at the moment. If any community member wants to take a crack at it, be my guest.
Colors are customizable.
If you have a paid TW account, you can lay it down twice and put the hour and daily on one and the weekly and monthly on the other.
That said, I hope you enjoy this version of this indicator.

In essence, it brings the power of TheStrat to your fingertips by offering precise and easy-to-read visual aids, allowing you to seamlessly apply Rob Smith’s philosophy to your trading.
BUY/SELL Timeframe ContinuityTime frame continuity refers to the alignment of price trends across multiple time frames. This means that the price movement is showing a consistent trend (either up or down) on various timeframes, like the 5-minute, 30-minute, hourly, and daily charts.
Why is it important?
Confirms Trend Strength: When multiple timeframes align, it indicates a strong and sustained trend.
Risk Management: Trading in the direction of the aligned trend can reduce risk.
This indicator checks if the current price of a selected timeframe is above or below its opening price. A buy/sell signal appears the second all bullish timeframes align (buy) or all bearish timeframes align. You can choose to paint the candles when the buy/sell conditions happen. You can select up to 10 different timeframes.
NOTE: With this indicator I prefer timeframes 15m, 30m, 1H, 4H, D, 5D, W - Together these timeframes are great for short-term trends on any stock.

MultiTimeframe Candles for Full Time Frame Continuity AnalysisIn honor of Rob Smith (R.I.P), the creator of TheStrat, I decided to try to figure out how to make an indicator that graphically shows you the price levels and movements on higher timeframes.
The goal is to have full timeframe continuity with TheStrat. Ideally when you are analyzing the lower time, you want it to be in continuity with the higher time frames.
How to Use It:
All you have to do is put on the indicator the number of times you desire.
So if you want the hourly, the daily, the weekly, and the monthly, then you have to just put on the indicator 4 times--once for each timeframe.
Then you go into each one you put on the chart and go to the drop down menu where you choose the timeframe you want displayed.
In the future, I'll do a video to show you exactly how that works, but I think you guys can figure it out.

The script fetches values for the selected timeframes and computes the bar types and corresponding visual elements such as arrows and background colors. The dashboard displays this information in a tabular format for easy reference during trading.
The dashboard is dynamically created based on user input for position and size. It shows the selected timeframes, bar types, and combo setups, providing a quick overview of the market conditions across multiple timeframes.
Timeframes: Displays the four user chosen timeframes that the dashboard fetches data from.
Arrow and Color: Functions to set the arrow direction and color based on current bar action. Green and up arrow: price is above it's candle open.
Red and down arrow: price is below it's candles open.
Background Color: Functions to set background color based on the bar type. White for an outside bar(3), yellow for an inside bar(1), no color for a continuation bar(2).
Strat Candle Combos: Functions to determine if the bar is an Inside(1), Continuation Up(2u), Continuation Down(2d), or Outside bar(3). Shows the previous bar and the current bar for the user's chosen timeframes.
Candle Visuals:
The script plots labels and colors for Inside and Outside bars based on user preferences. It helps in quickly identifying potential trading setups on the chart.
Conclusion:
We believe in providing user-friendly tools to help speed up traders technical analysis and implement easy trading strategies. The Strat with TFC & Combo Dashboard is a tool to assist traders in identifying potential trading setups based on The Strat methodology; to suit the users needs and trading style.

Timeframe Continuity Oscillator [TFO]This indicator is used to visualize timeframe continuity - a core concept of "The Strat" - along with some added logic for potential range limiters.
When discussing timeframe continuity, typically we are evaluating several timeframes to see if price is trading above or below the current open of each respective timeframe. If we are concerned with the 15m, 4h, and 1D for example, and price is trading above the current open of each of those timeframes, we can say that we have full timeframe continuity (FTFC) up. Conversely, if price is trading below the current open of each of those timeframes, we can say that we have FTFC down.
We can visualize this with an oscillator of sorts, where the zero line is anchored to the open price of the highest timeframe that we're concerned with. Using the prior example, this would be the 1D timeframe. As long as price is above the current 1D open, it is impossible to have FTFC down; and as long as price is below the current 1D open, it is impossible to have FTFC up. This is why we base the oscillator's values off of the highest timeframe's open (the values are simply how far price has traded from this open) - any value greater than zero tells us that there is potential to have FTFC up, and any value less than zero tells us that there is potential to have FTFC down.
There are a few ways we chose to visualize this data. First, we can choose the "Binary" option which simply uses one solid bullish color above the zero line, and one solid bearish color below the zero line.
Second, we can choose the "Gradient" option to help describe whether we have FTFC up or down. Values above the zero line will be a mix of the bullish color and mid color, where the mid color indicates no timeframe continuity up and the bullish color indicates FTFC up - sort of like a color spectrum of timeframe continuity to describe how many timeframes are in agreement. Similarly, values below the zero line will be a mix of the bearish color and the mid color, where the mid color again indicates no timeframe continuity down and the bearish color indicates FTFC down.
Lastly, we can choose the "FTFC Only" option which will only color the histogram bars as bullish if there is FTFC up, or bearish if there is FTFC down.
One more feature that we added is these upper and lower bands that aim to help describe the potential upper and lower limits that price may travel, relative to the highest timeframe's open. This is done by taking the standard deviation of some defined lookback period, for example, 2 standard deviations of the previous 10 weeks, assuming 1W is the highest timeframe enabled.
The concept is similar to that of an ADR (average daily range) as it can be used to estimate maximum range extensions for the largest timeframe. The arrows you see are plotted once the value exceeds either band - alerts can be enabled for these events as well through any alert() function call.
