Supertrend + MACD with Advanced FiltersDetailed Guide
1. Indicator Overview
Purpose:
This enhanced indicator combines Supertrend and MACD to signal potential trend changes. In addition, it now includes several extra filters for more reliable signals:
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Confirmation: Checks a higher timeframe’s trend.
ADX (Momentum) Filter: Ensures the market is trending strongly.
Dynamic Factor Adjustment: Adapts the Supertrend sensitivity to current volatility.
Volume Filter: Verifies that current volume is above average.
Each filter can be enabled or disabled according to your preference.
How It Works:
The Supertrend calculates dynamic support/resistance levels based on ATR and an adjustable factor, while MACD identifies momentum shifts via its crossovers. The additional filters then confirm whether the conditions meet your criteria for a trend change. If all enabled filters align, the indicator plots a shape and triggers an alert.
2. Supertrend Component with Dynamic Factor
Base Factor & ATR Period:
The Supertrend uses these inputs to compute its dynamic bands.
Dynamic Factor Toggle:
When enabled, the factor is adjusted by comparing the current ATR to its simple moving average. This makes the indicator adapt to higher or lower volatility conditions, helping to reduce false signals.
3. MACD Component
Parameters:
Standard MACD settings (Fast MA, Slow MA, Signal Smoothing) determine the responsiveness of the MACD line. Crossovers between the MACD line and its signal line indicate potential trend reversals.
4. Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Filter
Function:
If enabled, the indicator uses a higher timeframe’s simple moving average (SMA) to confirm the prevailing trend.
Bullish Confirmation: The current close is above the higher timeframe SMA.
Bearish Confirmation: The current close is below the higher timeframe SMA.
5. ADX Filter (Momentum)
Custom Calculation:
Since the built-in ta.adx function may not be available, a custom ADX is calculated. This involves:
Determining positive and negative directional movements (DMs).
Smoothing these values to obtain +DI and -DI.
Calculating the DX and then smoothing it to yield the ADX.
Threshold:
Only signals where the ADX exceeds the set threshold (default 20) are considered valid, ensuring that the market is trending strongly enough.
6. Volume Filter
Function:
Checks if the current volume exceeds the average volume (SMA) multiplied by a specified factor. This helps confirm that a price move is supported by sufficient trading activity.
7. Combined Signal Logic & Alerts
Final Signal:
A bullish signal is generated when:
MACD shows a bullish crossover,
Supertrend indicates an uptrend,
And all enabled filters (MTF, ADX, volume) confirm the signal.
The bearish signal is generated similarly in the opposite direction.
Alerts:
Alert conditions are set so that TradingView can notify you via pop-up, email, or SMS when these combined conditions are met.
8. User Adjustments
Toggle Filters:
Use the on/off switches for MTF, ADX, and Volume filters as needed.
Parameter Tuning:
Adjust the ATR period, base factor, higher timeframe settings, ADX period/threshold, and volume multiplier to match your trading style and market conditions.
Backtesting:
Always backtest your settings to ensure that they perform well with your strategy.
Trendanalyse
TrendWave Bands [BigBeluga]This is a trend-following indicator that dynamically adapts to market trends using upper and lower bands. It visually highlights trend strength and duration through color intensity while providing additional wave bands for deeper trend analysis.
🔵Key Features:
Adaptive Trend Bands:
➣ Displays a lower band in uptrends and an upper band in downtrends to indicate trend direction.
➣ The bands act as dynamic support and resistance levels, helping traders identify potential entry and exit points.
Wave Bands for Additional Analysis:
➣ A dashed wave band appears opposite the main trend band for deeper trend confirmation.
➣ In an uptrend, the upper dashed wave band helps analyze momentum, while in a downtrend, the lower dashed wave band serves the same purpose.
Gradient Color Intensity:
➣ The trend bands have a color gradient that fades as the trend continues, helping traders visualize trend duration.
➣ The wave bands have an inverse gradient effect—starting with low intensity at the trend's beginning and increasing in intensity as the trend progresses.
Trend Change Signals:
➣ Circular markers appear at trend reversals, providing clear entry and exit points.
➣ These signals mark transitions between bullish and bearish phases based on price action.
🔵Usage:
Trend Following: Use the lower band for confirmation in uptrends and the upper band in downtrends to stay on the right side of the market.
Trend Duration Analysis: Gradient wavebands give an idea of the duration of the current trend — new trends will have high-intensity colored wavebands and as time goes on, trends will fade.
Trend Reversal Detection: Circular markers highlight trend shifts, making it easier to spot entry and exit opportunities.
Volatility Awareness: Volatility-based bands help traders adjust their strategies based on market volatility, ensuring better risk management.
TrendWave Bands is a powerful tool for traders seeking to follow market trends with enhanced visual clarity. By combining trend bands, wave bands, and gradient-based color scaling, it provides a detailed view of market dynamics and trend evolution.
Daily ProtractorDaily Protractor Indicator
Overview
The Daily Protractor is a visually intuitive tool designed for traders who want to analyze price action through angular measurements on a 5-minute chart. By overlaying a protractor on the chart, this indicator helps identify potential support, resistance, and trend directions based on angular relationships from the first 5-minute candle of each day. It’s particularly useful for intraday traders looking to incorporate geometric analysis into their strategies for spot or strike charts.
Key Features
Dynamic Protractor Overlay: Draws a protractor centered on the low of the first 5-minute candle of each day, with customizable radius in both bars (horizontal) and price units (vertical).
Angular Measurements: Displays angles in 5-degree increments, covering a full 360° circle or a 105° to -105° (91° to 269°) half-circle, depending on user preference.
Customizable Display:
Adjust the number of days to display protractors (up to 5 days).
Customize line colors for different angle ranges (0° to 180°, 180° to 360°, and 0° specifically).
Modify line thickness, label size, and label colors for better visibility.
Center Point Highlight: Marks the center of each protractor with a labeled point for easy reference.
Efficient Design:
Optimized with max_lines_count, max_labels_count, and max_bars_back to ensure smooth performance on TradingView.
How It Works
The indicator identifies the first 5-minute candle of each day and uses its low price as the center point for a protractor. It then draws lines at 5-degree intervals, radiating from the center, with each line representing an angle from 0° to 360°. Labels at the end of each line display the angle in degrees, with negative values shown for angles between 195° and 345° (e.g., 270° is displayed as -90°). The protractor’s radius can be adjusted in both time (bars) and price units, allowing traders to scale the tool to their chart’s characteristics.
Usage Instructions
Add to Chart:
Apply the indicator to a 5-minute chart of your chosen instrument (e.g., spot or strike charts).
Interpret the Protractor:
Use the angular lines to identify potential price levels or trend directions.
The 0° line (horizontal) can act as a reference for horizontal support/resistance.
Angles between 0° and 180° (upper half) and 180° and 360° (lower half) are color-coded for quick identification.
Customize Settings:
Toggle the Show 105° to -105° option to display a half-circle (91° to 269°) instead of a full 360° protractor.
Adjust the Radius in Bars and Radius in Price Units to scale the protractor to your chart.
Set the Maximum Days to Display to control how many daily protractors are shown.
Modify line thickness, colors, and label settings to suit your visual preferences.
Customization Options
Protractor Settings:
Show 105° to -105° (91° to 269°): Toggle between a full circle or a half-circle protractor.
Radius in Bars: Set the horizontal span of the protractor (default: 75 bars).
Radius in Price Units: Set the vertical span in price units (default: 1000.0).
Maximum Days to Display: Limit the number of protractors shown (default: 5 days).
Line Settings:
Line Thickness: Adjust the thickness of the protractor lines (1 or 2).
Line Color (0° to 180°): Color for the upper half (default: light blue).
Line Color (180° to 360°): Color for the lower half (default: light red).
Line Color (0°): Color for the 0° line (default: black).
Label Settings:
Label Size: Choose between small, normal, or large labels.
Label Color (0° to 180°): Color for labels in the upper half (default: red).
Label Color (180° to 360°): Color for labels in the lower half (default: green).
Notes
The indicator was designed with the help of Grok3 for use on 5-minute charts only, as it relies on the first 5-minute candle of the day to set the protractor’s center.
For best results, adjust the radius settings to match the volatility and price scale of your instrument. However, where the price is in single digits it is advised to switch off the labels or I would suggest not to use the same.
The protractor can be used alongside other technical tools to confirm trends, reversals, or key price levels.
Limitations: This cannot be used on instruments that trade for more than 75 candles with a timeframe of 5 minutes as the angles would not cover the entire trading window. I am working coming up with a script to address this limitation.
Feedback
I’d love to hear your thoughts! If you find the Daily Protractor helpful or have suggestions for improvements, please leave a comment or reach out. Happy trading!

Composite Reversal IndicatorOverview
The "Composite Reversal Indicator" aggregates five technical signals to produce a composite score that ranges from -5 (strongly bearish) to +5 (strongly bullish). These signals come from:
Relative Strength Index (RSI)
Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD)
Accumulation/Distribution (A/D)
Volume relative to its moving average
Price proximity to support and resistance levels
Each signal contributes a value of +1 (bullish), -1 (bearish), or 0 (neutral) to the total score. The raw score is plotted as a histogram, and a smoothed version is plotted as a colored line to highlight trends.
Step-by-Step Explanation
1. Customizable Inputs
The indicator starts with user-defined inputs that allow traders to tweak its settings. These inputs include:
RSI: Length (e.g., 14), oversold level (e.g., 30), and overbought level (e.g., 70).
MACD: Fast length (e.g., 12), slow length (e.g., 26), and signal length (e.g., 9).
Volume: Moving average length (e.g., 20) and multipliers for high (e.g., 1.5) and low (e.g., 0.5) volume thresholds.
Price Levels: Period for support and resistance (e.g., 50) and proximity percentage (e.g., 2%).
Score Smoothing: Length for smoothing the score (e.g., 5).
These inputs make the indicator adaptable to different trading styles, assets, or timeframes.
2. Indicator Calculations
The script calculates five key indicators using the input parameters:
RSI: Measures momentum and identifies overbought or oversold conditions.
Formula: rsi = ta.rsi(close, rsi_length)
Example: With a length of 14, it analyzes the past 14 bars of closing prices.
MACD: Tracks trend and momentum using two exponential moving averages (EMAs).
Formula: = ta.macd(close, macd_fast, macd_slow, macd_signal)
Components: MACD line (fast EMA - slow EMA), signal line (EMA of MACD line).
Accumulation/Distribution (A/D): A volume-based indicator showing buying or selling pressure.
Formula: ad = ta.accdist
Reflects cumulative flow based on price and volume.
Volume Moving Average: A simple moving average (SMA) of trading volume.
Formula: vol_ma = ta.sma(volume, vol_ma_length)
Example: A 20-bar SMA smooths volume data.
Support and Resistance Levels: Key price levels based on historical lows and highs.
Formulas:
support = ta.lowest(low, price_level_period)
resistance = ta.highest(high, price_level_period)
Example: Over 50 bars, it finds the lowest low and highest high.
These calculations provide the raw data for generating signals.
3. Signal Generation
Each indicator produces a signal based on specific conditions:
RSI Signal:
+1: RSI < oversold level (e.g., < 30) → potential bullish reversal.
-1: RSI > overbought level (e.g., > 70) → potential bearish reversal.
0: Otherwise.
Logic: Extreme RSI values suggest price may reverse.
MACD Signal:
+1: MACD line > signal line → bullish momentum.
-1: MACD line < signal line → bearish momentum.
0: Equal.
Logic: Crossovers indicate trend shifts.
A/D Signal:
+1: Current A/D > previous A/D → accumulation (bullish).
-1: Current A/D < previous A/D → distribution (bearish).
0: Unchanged.
Logic: Rising A/D shows buying pressure.
Volume Signal:
+1: Volume > high threshold (e.g., 1.5 × volume MA) → strong activity (bullish).
-1: Volume < low threshold (e.g., 0.5 × volume MA) → weak activity (bearish).
0: Otherwise.
Logic: Volume spikes often confirm reversals.
Price Signal:
+1: Close near support (within proximity %, e.g., 2%) → potential bounce.
-1: Close near resistance (within proximity %) → potential rejection.
0: Otherwise.
Logic: Price near key levels signals reversal zones.
4. Composite Score
The raw composite score is the sum of the five signals:
Formula: score = rsi_signal + macd_signal + ad_signal + vol_signal + price_signal
Range: -5 (all signals bearish) to +5 (all signals bullish).
Purpose: Combines multiple perspectives into one number.
5. Smoothed Score
A smoothed version of the score reduces noise:
Formula: score_ma = ta.sma(score, score_ma_length)
Example: With a length of 5, it averages the score over 5 bars.
Purpose: Highlights the trend rather than short-term fluctuations.
6. Visualization
The indicator plots two elements:
Raw Score: A gray histogram showing the composite score per bar.
Style: plot.style_histogram
Color: Gray.
Smoothed Score: A line that changes color:
Green: Score > 0 (bullish).
Red: Score < 0 (bearish).
Gray: Score = 0 (neutral).
Style: plot.style_line, thicker line (e.g., linewidth=2).
These visuals make it easy to spot potential reversals.
How It Works Together
The indicator combines signals from:
RSI: Momentum extremes.
MACD: Trend shifts.
A/D: Buying/selling pressure.
Volume: Confirmation of moves.
Price Levels: Key reversal zones.
By summing these into a composite score, it filters out noise and provides a unified signal. A high positive score (e.g., +3 to +5) suggests a bullish reversal, while a low negative score (e.g., -3 to -5) suggests a bearish reversal. The smoothed score helps traders focus on the trend.
Practical Use
Bullish Reversal: Smoothed score is green and rising → look for buying opportunities.
Bearish Reversal: Smoothed score is red and falling → consider selling or shorting.
Neutral: Score near 0 → wait for clearer signals.
Traders can adjust inputs to suit their strategy, making it versatile for stocks, forex, or crypto.
HEMA Trend Levels [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script plots two Hull-EMA (HEMA) curves to define a color-coded dynamic trend zone and generate context-aware breakout levels, allowing traders to easily visualize prevailing momentum and identify high-probability breakout retests. The script blends smoothed price tracking with conditional box plotting, delivering both trend-following and mean-reversion signals within one system. It is designed to be simple to read visually while offering nuanced trend shifts and test confirmations.
█ CONCEPTS
The Hull-EMA (HEMA) is a hybrid moving average combining the responsiveness of short EMAs with the smoothness of longer ones. It applies layered smoothing: first by subtracting a full EMA from a half-length EMA (doubling the short EMA's weight), and then by smoothing the result again with the square root of the original length. This process reduces lag while maintaining clarity in direction changes. In this script, two HEMAs—fast and slow—are used to define the trend structure and trigger events when they cross. These crossovers generate "trend shift boxes"—temporary support or resistance zones drawn immediately after trend transitions—to detect price retests in the new direction. When price cleanly retests these levels, the script marks them as confirmations with triangle symbols, helping traders isolate better continuation setups. Color-coded bars further enhance visual interpretation: bullish bars when price is above both HEMAs, bearish when below, and neutral (gray) when indecisive.
█ FEATURES
Bullish and bearish bar coloring based on price and HEMA alignment.
Box plotting at each crossover (bullish or bearish) to create short-term decision zones.
Real-time test detection: price must cleanly test and bounce from box levels to be considered valid.
Multiple alert conditions: crossover alerts, test alerts, and trend continuation alerts.
█ USAGE
Use this indicator on any time frame and asset. Adjust HEMA lengths to match your trading style—shorter lengths for scalping or intraday, longer for swing trading. The shaded area between HEMAs helps visually define the current trend. Watch for crossovers: a bullish crossover plots a green support box just below price, and a bearish one plots a red resistance box just above. These zones act as short-term decision points. When price returns to test a box and confirms with strong rejection (e.g., closes above for bullish or below for bearish), a triangle symbol is plotted. These tests can signal strong trend continuation. For traders looking for clean entries, combining the crossover with a successful retest improves reliability. Alerts can be enabled for all key signals: trend shift, test confirmations, and continuation conditions, making it suitable for automated setups or discretionary traders tracking multiple charts.

Ranked Parabolic Curve Detector (Adaptive + Reversion Aware)The Parabolic Curve Detector is a smart, adaptable trading signal engine designed to help you spot true momentum — not the flashy head-fakes, but sustained, accelerating moves that have the potential to go parabolic. Whether you’re new to trading or looking to sharpen your edge, this tool combines a suite of time-tested and modern techniques into one unified signal, all while adjusting to changing market conditions.
The core idea is simple: detect when price is not just rising, but accelerating, like a curve bending upward. To do that, the script analyzes the log of price and calculates both:
Slope1: how fast the price is moving (momentum)
Slope2: how fast that momentum is changing (acceleration)
Over a user-defined number of bars (which amounts to sensitivity ), the script checks for consistency. So, for example, if both slope1 and slope2 have been positive for 4 bars, that’s a strong signal.
But it doesn’t stop there.
The key is weighted Intelligence
What makes this tool uniquely customizable is that each layer of signal logic is weighted:
Slope1 and Slope2: You can assign how much these matter (e.g., 60% for slope1, 20% for slope2)
Ichimoku Trend Filter: A bullish setup (Tenkan > Kijun) can contribute to the total score
RSI Context: The indicator checks for overextension (RSI > 70 and falling) and mean-reversion potential (RSI < 45 and rising), adjusting scores accordingly
You can fine-tune these weights to match your trading style — whether you prefer to catch early momentum, ride mature trends, or fade reversals.
Finally, there is adaptive Intelligence . This isn’t a static signal. The indicator auto-adjusts its strictness using:
Slope Flip Rate: If price changes direction frequently, the required bar count increases
Volatility (ATR): In volatile markets, the threshold for signal confirmation tightens to avoid noise
You can turn this adaptive behavior on or off. When enabled, it makes the script self-tuning across timeframes — more reactive on clean moves, more skeptical in chop.
How to Use It
Start on a log-scaled daily chart
Enable the indicator and optionally turn on Adaptive Sensitivity
Look for:
Green Circles = bullish signal with favorable RSI + trend
Orange Circles = still bullish, but possibly overextended
For bearish setups, enable Parabolic Drops in settings
I am still experimenting with it, so if you find a better way to use it, let us know!
My suggested tweaks :
sensitivity: 3–5 for normal, higher for stricter
signalThreshold: 0.7–0.85 depending on how picky you want to be

Beep BoopThe Beep Boop indicator is designed to simplify visual trading decisions by combining the concepts of MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) and a customizable EMA trend filter. It provides clear visual cues to help traders quickly assess market momentum and the current trend direction.
### What Makes Beep Boop Unique?
This indicator uniquely modifies the standard MACD histogram to create a simplified binary visualization—highlighting either bullish or bearish momentum clearly. Rather than displaying traditional MACD bars of varying sizes, it assigns fixed positive or negative values to simplify interpretation:
- A positive histogram (fixed at 0.1) indicates bullish momentum.
- A negative histogram (fixed at 0.09) indicates bearish momentum.
Additionally, Beep Boop integrates a configurable EMA (Exponential Moving Average) to filter signals, allowing traders to identify stronger directional moves by comparing the current price action with the EMA trend line:
- Bullish bars (green) appear only when price action is above the EMA.
- Bearish bars (red) appear only when price action is below the EMA.
- Neutral bars (white) appear when price action is uncertain or mixed in relation to the EMA.
### How to Use Beep Boop?
1. Fast and Slow Lengths: Adjust these to configure the MACD calculation for different timeframes or market volatility.
2. EMA Trend: Change this parameter to fine-tune the sensitivity of the EMA filter based on your preferred trading style (short-term, swing, or long-term).
3. Simple or Exponential MA: Toggle between SMA (Simple Moving Average) or EMA calculations to personalize the responsiveness of the MACD and signal lines.
### Recommended Applications
- Trend-following strategies: Clearly identifies market direction for entries and exits.
- Momentum Trading: Provides simple momentum confirmation for scalping and short-term trading.
- Market Screening: Quickly filters assets based on bullish or bearish momentum strength.
This indicator offers traders a clean, straightforward method to gauge market conditions at a glance, simplifying the complexity inherent in traditional momentum and trend indicators.

Timeframes:
This indicator is best suited for lower timeframes (5-minute to 15-minute charts) to capture quick price movements in trending markets.
Granular MA Ribbon🎗️ The Granular MA Ribbon provides a structured view of price action on lower timeframes by incorporating both price-based and volume-weighted moving averages, offering a more nuanced view of market trends and momentum shifts. Furthermore, by using 15-minute intervals for its calculations, it ensures that intraday traders receive a smooth and responsive representation of higher timeframe trends.
⚠️ Note that this indicator is specifically optimized for the 15-minute and 1-hour charts; applying it to longer or shorter periods will distort its calculations and reduce its effectiveness. Adjust visibility settings accordingly.
🧰 Unlike traditional moving averages that may lag or fail to reflect real-time shifts in price dynamics, the Granular MA Ribbon includes a one-day exponential moving average (1D EMA), a one-day volume-weighted moving average (1D VWMA), and a one-week exponential moving average (1W EMA). Together, these elements allow traders to stay aligned with the broader market while making precise intraday trading decisions.
🤷🏻 Why Two Daily Moving Averages?
🔊 Instead of relying on a single moving average, this indicator uses both an EMA and a VWMA to provide a clearer picture of price movement. The EMA reacts quickly to price changes, making it a useful tool for identifying short-term momentum shifts. The VWMA, meanwhile, accounts for volume, ensuring that price movements supported by higher trading activity carry greater weight in the trend calculation.
💪🏻 When the EMA and VWMA diverge significantly, it signals strong momentum. If they begin to converge, it suggests that momentum is weakening or that price may be entering consolidation. The space between these two moving averages is filled with a ribbon, making it easier to see shifts in trend strength. A wide ribbon typically indicates strong momentum, while a narrowing ribbon suggests the trend may be losing steam.
🧮 Calculation Rationale
🔎 The 1D EMA and 1D VWMA are constructed using 15-minute blocks to maintain accuracy on lower timeframes. A full trading day consists of 96 fifteen-minute intervals. Instead of relying on daily candle data, which would reduce the granularity of the moving averages, this method allows the indicator to reflect intra-day trends more accurately. By breaking the day into smaller increments, the moving averages adapt more smoothly to changes in price and volume, making them more reliable for traders working on shorter timeframes.
🔍 The weekly EMA follows the same logic, adjusting based on the selected five-day or seven-day setting. If the market follows a standard five-day trading week, the one-week EMA is calculated using 480 fifteen-minute bars. If the market trades seven days a week, such as in crypto, the weekly EMA is adjusted accordingly to reflect 672 fifteen-minute bars. This setting ensures that traders using the indicator across different asset classes receive accurate trend information.
🫤 Sideways Markets
🔄 When the broader market is in a range-bound state, with no clear trend on the one-day or one-week chart, this indicator helps traders make sense of the short-term price structure. In these conditions, the ribbon will often appear flat, with the 1D EMA and 1D VWMA frequently crossing each other. This suggests that momentum is weak and that price action lacks a strong directional bias.
⚠️ A narrowing ribbon in a sideways market indicates reduced volatility and a potential breakout. If the EMA crosses above the VWMA during consolidation, it may signal a short-term upward move, especially if volume begins to increase. Conversely, if the EMA moves below the VWMA, it could indicate that selling pressure is increasing. However, in choppy conditions, crossovers alone are not enough to confirm a trade. Traders should wait for additional confirmation, such as a breakout from a defined range or a shift in volume.
♭ If the weekly EMA remains flat while the daily ribbon fluctuates, it confirms that the market lacks a strong trend. In such cases, traders may consider fading moves near the top and bottom of a range rather than expecting sustained breakouts.
💹 Trending Markets
🏗️ When the market is in a strong uptrend or downtrend, the ribbon takes on a more structured shape. A widening ribbon that slopes upward signals strong bullish momentum, with price consistently respecting the 1D EMA and VWMA as support. In a downtrend, the ribbon slopes downward, acting as dynamic resistance.
📈 In trending conditions, traders can use the ribbon to time pullback entries. In an uptrend, price often retraces to the VWMA before resuming its upward move. If price holds above both the EMA and VWMA, the trend remains strong. If price begins to close below the VWMA but remains above the EMA, it suggests weakening momentum but not necessarily a reversal. A clean break below both moving averages indicates a shift in trend structure.
📊 The one-week EMA serves as a higher timeframe guide. When price remains above the weekly EMA, it confirms that the broader trend is intact. If price pulls back to the weekly EMA and bounces, it can provide a high-confidence trade entry. Conversely, if price breaks below the weekly EMA and fails to reclaim it, it suggests that the trend may be reversing.
⏳ 5-Day and 7-Day Week Variants
🎚️ The setting for a five-day or seven-day trading week adjusts the calculation of the one-week EMA. This ensures that the indicator remains accurate across different asset classes.
5️⃣ A five-day trading week is appropriate for stocks, futures, and forex markets, where trading pauses on weekends. Using a seven-day week for these markets would create artificial distortions by including non-trading days. 7️⃣ In contrast, the seven-day week setting is ideal for crypto markets, which trade continuously. Without this adjustment, the weekly EMA would fail to reflect weekend price action, leading to misleading trend signals.
🧐 This indicator is expressly designed to complement its higher timeframe counterpart, the Triple Differential Moving Average Braid, optimized for the 1-Day chart.

🔸 Orange line → short-term noise
🟩🟥 Background color → shows whether trend energy is increasing or decreasing
You can use it to:
Detect early trend formation
Filter fakeouts during consolidation
Spot momentum shifts based on energy crossovers
This is not a traditional oscillator — it’s a frequency-inspired tool to help you understand when the market is charging for a move.
Dynamic Trend Indicator (DTI) - VWAP FilterThe Dynamic Trend Indicator (DTI) with VWAP Filter is a trend-following indicator.
It aims to identify and follow market trends while minimizing false signals in choppy or ranging markets.
The DTI combines a dynamically adjusted Exponential Moving Average (EMA) with a daily Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) confirmation filter and a cooldown mechanism to enhance signal reliability. This indicator is particularly useful for traders on intraday timeframes (e.g., 4-hour charts) who want to align their trades with the broader daily trend while avoiding whipsaws.
Key Features:
Dynamic Trend Line:
The core of the DTI is a trend line calculated using a custom EMA that adjusts its period dynamically based on market conditions.
The period of the EMA is determined by a combination of volatility (measured via ATR) and trend strength (measured via price momentum). In strong trends, the period shortens for faster responsiveness; in weak or ranging markets, it lengthens to reduce noise.
An optional smoothing EMA can be applied to the dynamic trend line to further reduce noise, with a user-defined smoothing length.
Daily VWAP Confirmation Filter:
A daily VWAP is calculated to provide a higher-timeframe trend bias. VWAP represents the average price paid for an asset during the day, weighted by volume, and is often used as a benchmark by institutional traders.
Buy signals are only generated when the price is above the daily VWAP (indicating a bullish daily bias), and sell signals are only generated when the price is below the VWAP (indicating a bearish daily bias).
The VWAP resets at the start of each day, ensuring it reflects the current day’s trading activity.
Cooldown Mechanism:
To prevent rapid signal reversals (whipsaws), the indicator includes a cooldown period between signals. After a buy or sell signal is generated, no new signals can be generated for a user-defined number of bars (default: 5 bars).
This helps filter out noise in choppy markets, ensuring signals are spaced out and more likely to align with significant trend changes.
Visual Elements:
Trend Line: Plotted on the chart, colored green when the price is above (uptrend) and red when below (downtrend). A gray color indicates a neutral trend.
Buy/Sell Signals: Displayed as green triangles below the bar for buy signals and red triangles above the bar for sell signals.
Background Coloring: The chart background is shaded green during uptrends and red during downtrends, providing a quick visual cue of the trend direction.
Daily VWAP Line: Optionally plotted as a purple step line, allowing traders to see the VWAP level and its relationship to the price.
Alerts:
The indicator includes built-in alerts for buy and sell signals, triggered when the price crosses the trend line and satisfies the VWAP filter and cooldown conditions.
Alert messages specify whether the signal is a buy or sell and confirm that the VWAP condition was met (e.g., "DTI Buy Signal: Price crossed above trend line and VWAP").
Input Parameters
Base Length (default: 14): The base period for calculating volatility and trend strength, used to adjust the dynamic EMA period.
Volatility Multiplier (default: 1.5): Adjusts the sensitivity of the dynamic period to market volatility (via ATR).
Trend Threshold (default: 0.5): Controls the sensitivity of the dynamic period to trend strength (via price momentum).
Use Smoothing (default: true): Enables/disables smoothing of the trend line with an additional EMA.
Smoothing Length (default: 3): The period for the smoothing EMA, if enabled.
Cooldown Bars (default: 5): The minimum number of bars between consecutive signals, reducing signal frequency in choppy markets.
Show Daily VWAP (default: true): Toggles the display of the daily VWAP line on the chart.
How It Works
Dynamic Trend Line Calculation:
Volatility is measured using the Average True Range (ATR) over the base length, scaled by the volatility multiplier.
Trend strength is calculated as the absolute price momentum (change in price over the base length) divided by the volatility factor.
The dynamic EMA period is adjusted based on the trend strength: stronger trends result in a shorter period (faster response), while weaker trends result in a longer period (more stability). The period is constrained between 5 and 50 to avoid extreme values.
A custom EMA function is used to handle the dynamic period, as Pine Script’s built-in ta.ema() requires a fixed length. The trend line is optionally smoothed with a secondary EMA.
Signal Generation:
A buy signal is generated when the price crosses above the trend line, the price is above the daily VWAP, and the cooldown period has elapsed.
A sell signal is generated when the price crosses below the trend line, the price is below the daily VWAP, and the cooldown period has elapsed.
The cooldown mechanism ensures that signals are not generated too frequently, reducing false signals in ranging markets.
Daily VWAP Calculation:
The VWAP is calculated by accumulating the price-volume product (close * volume) and total volume for the day, resetting at the start of each new day.
The VWAP is then computed as the cumulative price-volume divided by the cumulative volume, providing a volume-weighted average price for the day.
Usage
Timeframe: Best suited for intraday timeframes (e.g., 1-hour, 4-hour) where the daily VWAP provides a higher-timeframe trend bias. It can also be used on daily charts with adjustments to the cooldown period.
Markets: Works well in trending markets (e.g., forex, crypto, stocks) where the dynamic trend line can capture sustained price movements. The VWAP filter helps align signals with the daily trend, making it effective for assets with clear daily biases.
Trading Strategy:
Buy: Enter a long position when a green triangle (buy signal) appears, indicating the price has crossed above the trend line and is above the daily VWAP.
Sell: Enter a short position (or exit a long) when a red triangle (sell signal) appears, indicating the price has crossed below the trend line and is below the daily VWAP.
Use the trend line and VWAP as dynamic support/resistance levels to set stop-losses or take-profit targets.
Backtesting: Use TradingView’s strategy tester to evaluate the indicator’s performance on your chosen market and timeframe, adjusting parameters like cooldown_bars and volatility_mult to optimize for profitability.
Example
On a 4-hour SOLUSDT chart, the DTI with VWAP Filter might show:
An uptrend with the price above the green trend line and above the daily VWAP, generating buy signals as the price continues to rise.
A downtrend where the price falls below the red trend line and the daily VWAP, generating sell signals that align with the bearish daily bias.
During choppy periods, the cooldown mechanism and VWAP filter reduce false signals, ensuring trades are taken only when the price aligns with the daily trend.
Limitations
Lagging Nature: Like all trend-following indicators, the DTI may lag during sharp price reversals, as the dynamic EMA needs time to adjust.
Ranging Markets: While the VWAP filter and cooldown mechanism reduce whipsaws, the indicator may still generate some false signals in strongly ranging markets. Combining it with a trend strength filter (e.g., ADX) can help.
VWAP Dependency: The effectiveness of the VWAP filter depends on the market’s respect for the daily VWAP as a support/resistance level. In markets with low volume or erratic price action, the VWAP may be less reliable.
Potential Improvements
VWAP Buffer: Add a percentage buffer around the VWAP (e.g., require the price to be 1% above/below) to further reduce noise.
Multi-Timeframe VWAP: Incorporate a weekly VWAP for additional trend confirmation on longer timeframes.
Trend Strength Filter: Add an ADX filter to ensure signals are generated only during strong trends (e.g., ADX > 25).
ACCURATE TREND LEVELS - TABLE PSv6.1Accurate Trend Level Indicator
Description:
The "Accurate Trend Level" indicator is a powerful tool designed to identify market trends and potential reversals with precision. Built on the concept (foundation) of Swing Highs and Swing Lows, this indicator easily detects uptrends and downtrends, providing traders with clear signals for trend continuation or reversal. Whether you are a swing trader or a trend follower, this indicator offers customization options to suit your trading style.
Key Features:
Trend Identification: Accurately identifies uptrends and downtrends based on Swing High and Swing Low points. This indicator provides signals for Up after Down and Down after Up.
Percentage Adjustment: Includes a customizable percentage factor that reduces false signals and helps identify accurate and strong trends.
Trend Table: Displays essential data in a table, such as:
Last and running Trend Position (Uptrend/Downtrend)
Date and Time of the last and running trend change
Reversal Level (price level for the next potential trend change)
Max. Run-up feature is also provided, which shows how much the market has moved according to the trend.
How It Works:
The indicator analyzes price action using Swing Highs and Lows to determine the current trend direction. A user-defined percentage threshold filters out minor fluctuations, ensuring only significant trends are highlighted. The table provides a quick snapshot of the latest trend data, while reversal levels help traders anticipate the next move.
Cumulative Histogram TickThis script is designed to create a cumulative histogram based on tick data from a specific financial instrument. The histogram resets at the start of each trading session, which is defined by a fixed time.
Key Components:
Tick Data Retrieval:
The script fetches the closing tick values from the specified instrument using request.security("TICK.NY", timeframe.period, close). This line ensures that the script works with the tick data for each bar on the chart.
Session Start and End Detection:
Start Hour: The script checks if the current bar's time is 9:30 AM (hour == 9 and minute == 30). This is used to reset the cumulative value at the beginning of each trading session.
End Hour: It also checks if the current bar's time is 4:00 PM (hour == 16). However, this condition is used to prevent further accumulation after the session ends.
Cumulative Value Management:
Reset: When the start hour condition is met (startHour), the cumulative value (cumulative) is reset to zero. This ensures that each trading session starts with a clean slate.
Accumulation: For all bars that are not at the end hour (not endHour), the tick value is added to the cumulative total. This process continues until the end of the trading session.
Histogram Visualization:
The cumulative value is plotted as a histogram using plot.style_histogram. The color of the histogram changes based on whether the cumulative value is positive (green) or negative (red).
Usage
This script is useful for analyzing intraday market activity by visualizing the accumulation of tick data over a trading session. It helps traders identify trends or patterns within each session, which can be valuable for making informed trading decisions.
SemaforThis is the 4 Level Semafor indicator with Daily Open Line and Average Session Range. Also on the chart is the EMA Ribbon indicator.
Credit to:
Devlucem for the Semafor indicator
Quantvue for the Average Session Range
Shusterivi for the Daily Open Line
MYNAMEISBRANDON for the EMA Ribbon
The Semafors are based on the ZigZag indicator and show higher highs/lower lows of a specified period, determined by the user and applied in settings.
The default periods I use are:
10 period (hidden on this chart)
50 period-blue dots
250 period-white dots
615 period-black dots
Just as the ZigZag indicator will recalculate so to will the semafors, as additional candles are built. The semafor indicator is never to be used as a stand alone signal. It must be combined with other indicators to be used effectively. What we look for are the semafor patterns of a large white dot followed by a 1st blue dot opposite of the white. Then a 2nd blue dot in agreement with the white dot. In theory, the 2nd blue dot is seen as confirmation of the establishment of the white semafor..
When combined with Daily Open Line, ADR (Average Sessions Range), EMA cross and VWAP anchored to your 250 semafors, your odds are greatly increased. Add to that the knowledge of basic market structure and the wisdom that comes from patience and you have a very powerful weapon.
The Daily Open...I trade the M1 chart and also draw a H4 Open Line on my chart for the smaller time frames. Price will tend to trade away from the Daily Open Line. In many cases until it reaches certain levels...Fib, Gann, ADR, etc., then runs through a pullback cycle. I like the ADR levels. The ADR can give clues when entering a consolidation phase, ie trading between the buy side and sell side 15% levels. Trading away from the Daily Open(or H4 open) along with breaking the 15% level, while in agreement with a semafor pattern is a good sign.
Add to that confluence the agreement of your MA cross and the 250 semafor Anchored VWAP and you have a solid signal to help determine your actions. This trend following layout will work on any time frame. I just really like the M1 for its precision, not for crazy back and forth all day. With the exception of some strong pull back signals, I don't enter any more trades on the M1 than on M5, 15 or 30.
This is based on and follows the teachings of Xard and his trading strategy. Just as I don't want to take anyone's credit for these indicators, I won't take credit for what I have been taught either.
The trader can obviously use their favorite MA cross indicator. But this one is visually beautiful AND displays the current time frame and 1 time frame higher on the chart...awesome!
Of note, I do run into trouble at times with the 615 period semafor. I have been told it is because TradingView has trouble with extended period indicators. As a matter of fact, I would like a much higher period for my biggest semafor. I would like it set at 1250, but that seems to be a no starter. If anyone has a solution, that would be welcomed news.
TimeMapTimeMap is a visual price-reference indicator designed to help traders rapidly visualize how current price levels relate to significant historical closing prices. It overlays your chart with reference lines representing past weekly, monthly, quarterly (3-month), semi-annual (6-month), and annual closing prices. By clearly plotting these historical price references, TimeMap helps traders quickly gauge price position relative to historical market structure, aiding in the identification of trends, support/resistance levels, and potential reversals.
How it Works:
The indicator calculates the precise number of historical bars corresponding to weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, and annual intervals, dynamically adjusting according to your chart’s timeframe (intraday, daily, weekly, monthly) and chosen market type (Stocks US, Crypto, Forex, or Futures). Historical closing prices from these periods are plotted directly on your chart as horizontal reference lines.
For intraday traders, the script accurately calculates historical offsets considering regular and extended trading sessions (e.g., pre-market and after-hours sessions for US stocks), ensuring correct positioning of historical lines.
User-Configurable Inputs Explained in Detail:
Market Type:
Allows you to specify your trading instrument type, automatically adjusting calculations for:
- Stocks US (default): 390 minutes per regular session (780 minutes if extended hours enabled), 5 trading days/week.
- Crypto: 1440 minutes/day, 7 trading days/week.
- Forex: 1440 minutes/day, 5 trading days/week.
- Futures: 1320 minutes/day, 5 trading days/week.
Show Weekly Close:
When enabled, plots a line at the exact closing price from one week ago. Provides short-term context and helps identify recent price momentum.
Show Monthly Close:
When enabled, plots a line at the exact closing price from one month ago. Helpful for evaluating medium-term price positioning and monthly trend strength.
Show 3-Month Close:
When enabled, plots a line at the exact closing price from three months ago. Useful for assessing quarterly market shifts, intermediate trend changes, and broader market sentiment.
Show 6-Month Close:

Show 1-Year Close:
When enabled, plots a line at the exact closing price from one year ago. Excellent for assessing long-term market direction and key annual price levels.
Enable Smoothing:
Activates a Simple Moving Average (SMA) smoothing of historical reference lines, reducing volatility and providing clearer visual references. Recommended for traders preferring less volatile reference levels.
Smoothing Length:
Determines the number of bars used in calculating the SMA smoothing of historical lines. Higher values result in smoother but slightly delayed reference lines; lower values offer more immediate yet more volatile levels.
Use Extended Hours (Intraday Only):
When enabled (only applicable for Stocks US), it accounts for pre-market and after-hours trading sessions, providing accurate intraday historical line calculations based on extended sessions (typically 780 minutes/day total).
Important Notes and Compliance:
- This indicator does not provide trading signals, recommendations, or predictions. It serves purely as a visual analytical tool to supplement traders’ existing methods.
- Historical lines plotted are strictly based on past available price data; the indicator never accesses future data or data outside the scope of Pine Script’s standard capabilities.
- The script incorporates built-in logic to avoid runtime errors if insufficient historical data exists for a selected timeframe, ensuring robustness even with limited historical bars.
- TimeMap is original work developed exclusively by Julien Eche (@Julien_Eche). It does not reuse or replicate third-party or existing open-source scripts.
Recommended Best Practices:
- Use TimeMap as a complementary analytical reference, not as a standalone strategy or trade decision-making tool.
- Adapt displayed historical periods and smoothing settings based on your trading style and market approach.
- Default plot colors are optimized for readability on dark-background charts; adjust as necessary according to your preference and chart color scheme.

Low Liquidity Zones [PhenLabs]📊 Low Liquidity Zones
Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
Low Liquidity Zones identifies and highlights periods of unusually low trading volume on your chart, marking areas where price movement occurred with minimal participation. These zones often represent potential support and resistance levels that may be more susceptible to price breakouts or reversals when revisited with higher volume.
Unlike traditional volume analysis tools that focus on high volume spikes, this indicator specializes in detecting low liquidity areas where price moved with minimal resistance. Each zone displays its volume delta, providing insight into buying vs. selling pressure during these thin liquidity periods. This combination of low volume detection and delta analysis helps traders identify potential price inefficiencies and weak structures in the market.
🚀 Points of Innovation
• Identifies low liquidity zones that most volume indicators overlook but which often become significant technical levels
• Displays volume delta within each zone, showing net buying/selling pressure during low liquidity periods
• Dynamically adjusts to different timeframes, allowing analysis across multiple time horizons
• Filters zones by maximum size percentage to focus only on precise price levels
• Maintains historical zones until they expire based on your lookback settings, creating a cumulative map of potential support/resistance areas
🔧 Core Components
• Low Volume Detection: Identifies candles where volume falls below a specified threshold relative to recent average volume, highlighting potential liquidity gaps.
• Volume Delta Analysis: Calculates and displays the net buying/selling pressure within each low liquidity zone, providing insight into the directional bias during low participation periods.
• Dynamic Timeframe Adjustment: Automatically scales analysis periods to match your selected timeframe preference, ensuring consistent identification of low liquidity zones regardless of chart settings.
• Zone Management System: Creates, tracks, and expires low liquidity zones based on your configured settings, maintaining visual clarity on the chart.
🔥 Key Features
• Low Volume Identification: Automatically detects and highlights candles where volume falls below your specified threshold compared to the moving average.
• Volume Delta Visualization: Shows the net volume delta within each zone, providing insight into whether buyers or sellers were dominant despite the low overall volume.
• Flexible Timeframe Analysis: Analyze low liquidity zones across multiple predefined timeframes or use a custom lookback period specific to your trading style.
• Zone Size Filtering: Filters out excessively large zones to focus only on precise price levels, improving signal quality.
• Automatic Zone Expiration: Older zones are automatically removed after your specified lookback period to maintain a clean, relevant chart display.
🎨 Visualization
• Volume Delta Labels: Each zone displays its volume delta with “+” or “-” prefix and K/M suffix for easy interpretation, showing the strength and direction of pressure during the low volume period.
• Persistent Historical Mapping: Zones remain visible for your specified lookback period, creating a cumulative map of potential support and resistance levels forming under low liquidity conditions.

Description: Number of bars to analyze when using Custom timeframe option. Higher values show more historical zones but may impact performance.
Volume Analysis
Volume Threshold Divisor
Default: 0.5
Range: 0.1-1.0
Description: Maximum volume relative to average to identify low volume zones. Example: 0.5 means volume must be below 50% of the average to qualify as low volume. Lower values create more selective zones while higher values identify more zones.
Volume MA Length
Default: 15
Range: 1+
Description: Period length for volume moving average calculation. Shorter periods make the indicator more responsive to recent volume changes, while longer periods provide a more stable baseline.
Zone Settings
Zone Fill Color
Default: #2196F3 (80% transparency)
Description: Color and transparency of the low liquidity zones. Choose colors that stand out against your chart background without obscuring price action.
Maximum Zone Size %
Default: 0.5
Range: 0.1+
Description: Maximum allowed height of a zone as percentage of price. Larger zones are filtered out. Lower values create more precise zones focusing on tight price ranges.
Display Options
Show Volume Delta
Default: true
Description: Toggles the display of volume delta within each zone. Enabling this provides additional insight into buying vs. selling pressure during low volume periods.
Delta Text Position
Default: Right
Options: Left, Center, Right
Description: Controls the horizontal alignment of the delta text within zones. Adjust based on your chart layout for optimal readability.
✅ Best Use Cases
• Identifying potential support and resistance levels that formed during periods of thin liquidity
• Spotting price inefficiencies where larger players may have moved price with minimal volume
• Finding low-volume consolidation areas that may serve as breakout or reversal zones when revisited
• Locating potential stop-hunting zones where price moved on minimal participation
• Complementing traditional support/resistance analysis with volume context
⚠️ Limitations
• Requires volume data to function; will not work on symbols where the data provider doesn’t supply volume information
• Low volume zones don’t guarantee future support/resistance - they simply highlight potential areas of interest
• Works best on liquid instruments where volume data has meaningful fluctuations
• Historical analysis is limited by the maximum allowed box count (500) in TradingView
• Volume delta in some markets may not perfectly reflect buying vs. selling pressure due to data limitations
💡 What Makes This Unique
• Focus on Low Volume: Unlike some indicators that highlight high volume events particularly like our very own TLZ indicator, this tool specifically identifies potentially significant price zones that formed with minimal participation.
• Delta + Low Volume Integration: Combines volume delta analysis with low volume detection to reveal directional bias during thin liquidity periods.
• Flexible Lookback System: The dynamic timeframe system allows analysis across any timeframe while maintaining consistent zone identification criteria.
• Support/Resistance Zone Generation: Automatically builds a visual map of potential technical levels based on volume behavior rather than just price patterns.
🔬 How It Works
1. Volume Baseline Calculation:
The indicator calculates a moving average of volume over your specified period to establish a baseline for normal market participation. This adaptive baseline accounts for natural volume fluctuations across different market conditions.
2. Low Volume Detection:
Each candle’s volume is compared to the moving average and flagged when it falls below your threshold divisor. The indicator also filters zones by maximum size to ensure only precise price levels are highlighted.
3. Volume Delta Integration:
For each identified low volume candle, the indicator retrieves the volume delta from a lower timeframe. This delta value is formatted with appropriate scaling (K/M) and displayed within the zone.
4. Zone Management:
New zones are created and tracked in a dynamic array, with each zone extending rightward until it expires. The system automatically removes expired zones based on your lookback period to maintain a clean chart.
💡 Note:
Low liquidity zones often represent areas where price moved with minimal participation, which can indicate potential market inefficiencies. These zones frequently become important support/resistance levels when revisited, especially if approached with higher volume. Consider using this indicator alongside traditional technical analysis tools for comprehensive market context. For best results, experiment with different volume threshold settings based on the specific instrument’s typical volume patterns.
