HC_V2Description:
Detailed Clarity Signal is a sophisticated TradingView indicator designed to provide traders with enhanced trading signals based on Bollinger Bands and the consistency of price actions. This script is particularly useful for identifying high-probability entry points in volatile markets. It combines the power of Bollinger Bands with a unique scoring system that assesses the clarity of buy and sell signals.
Features:
Dynamic Bollinger Bands: Utilizes a standard deviation multiplier to dynamically adjust Bollinger Bands, providing a flexible approach to volatility.
Clarity Scoring System: Each trading signal is scored based on its clarity, which is determined by how significantly the price exceeds the Bollinger Bands and the consistency of similar signals over a short span of time. This helps in distinguishing stronger signals from the weaker ones.
Consecutive Signal Tracking: Tracks consecutive buy or sell signals, allowing for gaps of up to three bars, to enhance the reliability of the trading signals.
Alert Conditions: Includes conditions for setting alerts when signals of high clarity (levels 4 and 5) are detected, making it easier for traders to act promptly on significant trading opportunities.
Visual and Sound Alerts: Designed to integrate seamlessly with TradingView's alert system, providing both visual markers and sound alerts to ensure that traders do not miss important trading signals.
How It Works:
The indicator calculates Bollinger Bands and measures the current close price in relation to these bands. When the price closes significantly beyond the bands coupled with consistent behavior in previous sessions, the signal clarity increases. This clarity is quantified from levels 1 to 5, with higher levels indicating stronger signals. Traders can set alerts to be notified when signals of substantial clarity are detected, aiding in decision-making during fast-moving market conditions.
Usage:
Entry Signal: A high clarity level (4 or 5) suggests a strong buy or sell opportunity, depending on whether the signal is above or below the Bollinger Bands.
Exit Signal: Traders may consider closing positions as the clarity level decreases or as opposing signals begin to form, providing a methodical approach to capturing gains and managing risks.
Conclusion:
The Detailed Clarity Signal indicator is an invaluable tool for traders looking to leverage the volatility of the markets with a higher degree of precision. By focusing on the quality of signals, it provides a robust method to enhance trading strategies, ensuring that traders can make informed decisions backed by a comprehensive analysis of price movements and trend strength.

RunRox - Advanced SMCIntroducing Our Advanced SMC Indicator: Elevate Your Smart Money Concept Trading
We are excited to present our innovative indicator designed specifically for the Smart Money Concept (SMC) strategy. Our approach goes beyond the traditional SMC strategy, bringing significant enhancements to help you achieve better trading results.
We employ a more sophisticated SMC structure incorporating IDM, precise retracements, extreme and local order blocks. This allows for a deeper understanding of market trends and insights into the manipulations of major market players.
What is IDM?
IDM, or Institutional Distribution Model, is a refined concept within SMC that focuses on understanding how institutional players distribute their positions within the market. By analyzing IDM, traders can better predict market movements and potential points of reversal, giving them a significant edge.
What is a Precise Retracement?
A precise retracement, according to our methodology, involves a proper candlestick pattern. If candles do not exceed the highs and lows of the previous candle, they are considered internal and are not counted in the market structure. A correct retracement occurs when candles break beyond the boundaries of the preceding candle
4 Types of Order Blocks
Our concept now includes four types of order blocks: CHoCH, IDM, Local, and BOS order blocks. Below, we will discuss the differences:
CHoCH OB - These are order blocks located closest to the Change of Character (CHoCH).
IDM OB - These order blocks are positioned next after the Institutional Distribution Model (IDM).
Local OB - These blocks are either within the IDM range or in areas that do not fit any specific criteria. We refer to these as local order blocks.
BOS OB - These blocks are located closest to the Break of Structure (BOS) line.
Understanding the distinctions between these order blocks and the market context is key to effectively utilizing them for successful trading.
By incorporating these advanced features, our SMC indicator provides a powerful tool for traders looking to enhance their trading strategies and achieve more consistent results.
Here are the main principles and differences in our strategy. We will discuss all the features and capabilities of our indicator in more detail below.
🟠 Example of Our Structure
Now we will demonstrate several examples of our structure to give you a better understanding of how our indicator works
As you can see in the screenshot above, we have three main components of our structure
CHoCH (Change of Character): Price breaks a higher low (in an uptrend) or lower low (in a downtrend) directly after sweeping the recent pivot high or low.
BOS (Break of Structure): Price breaks a higher high (in an uptrend) or a lower low (in a downtrend).
IDM (Institutional Distribution Model): This represents liquidity that the market seeks to capture. The market moves to take out liquidity pockets before reversing in the intended direction.
This example demonstrates our entire structure, how it is built, and the core principles embedded within it. We have also highlighted the points used to form our structure. It's important to note that in the structure with IDM, the CHoCH is dynamic and moves closer to the IDM each time we break the BOS. This makes our structure more dynamic and sets us apart from the classic Smart Money strategy.
Additionally, I would like to show an example of how to work with order blocks in the Smart Money concept with IDM.
As you can see, some order blocks are considered traps for traders in this concept and are a constant problem in the classic structure.
The real market structure is much more complex than beginner traders perceive in the Smart Money concept. If a structural low is broken, the price can still continue its upward movement, updating the structural high because the nearest valid retracement update is merely a liquidity grab, which we refer to as IDM.
Therefore, it is common to observe in a downtrend that the price may break a high, leading Smart Money traders to believe that the price has reversed and the structure has changed (CHoCH), while in reality, the price continues its downward movement.
Inducement in trading is related to the collection of liquidity. Essentially, it is the liquidity created to make retail traders commit errors. IDM is often associated with the crowd's money, waiting for positions to be closed, such as stop-losses, limit orders, stop orders, and so on.
Now that I have explained the basics of our concept, let's move on to the functions of our indicator and trading examples.
🟠 Indicator Features:
Start Date of Structure Building: Choose the starting point for building the structure on the chart.
CHoCH | BOS | IDM: Display any components from this structure.
Market SubStructure: External and internal structure.
Main and Internal Zigzag: Zigzag for understanding the structure.
BOS/CHoCH Breaking by (Body | Wick): Choose the principle for building the structure, either by the candle body or by their wicks.
BOS/CHoCH Move if Swept: When liquidity is taken, decide whether to move the structure line higher or consider it a structural break.
Color Candles: Color the structure according to the trend color.
Current OrderBlock: Display 4 types of OrderBlocks from the current timeframe.
Higher TimeFrame OrderBlock (Any timeframe): Display OrderBlocks from any timeframe you prefer.
OrderBlock Sensitivity (Low | Medium | High): Choose the sensitivity level for displaying OrderBlocks.
Fills Method for FVG/OB (Touch | Midline | Complete): Select the fill method that determines when FVG and OrderBlock are considered fulfilled.
OrderBlock Based on (Full Candle | Body): Choose the principle for constructing OrderBlock, either by the full candle or only by the candle body.
CHoCH | IDM | Local | BOS OrderBlock/FVG: Show or hide 4 types of OrderBlocks and FVG. Customize each one by color, what exactly to display on the chart, etc.
OrderBlock Volume: Observe the strength of OrderBlocks by their intensity.
Highlight All FVG/Imbalance: Display emerging FVGs on the chart without OrderBlocks.
Customizable Alerts: Set up any alerts you want
Let me describe some of the indicator's features
You can set the candles to be colored according to the trend. In some situations, this is very convenient. For example, when the structure becomes quite large, it helps to easily see the current trend without having to refer back to the beginning of the structure.
You can select any date and time as the starting point for the analysis. This unique feature allows you to test any of your market hypotheses at any given moment. I believe this will be beneficial for every trader using the Smart Money Concept.
Sometimes larger structures emerge, and in such cases, it will be convenient to trade based on the internal structure. All dotted lines represent the internal structure, which differs from the external one. This feature is particularly helpful when trading in volatile markets.
In the image, you can see all the types of order blocks we identify:
CHoCH OB - Order blocks located closest to the Change of Character (CHoCH).
IDM OB - Order blocks that follow the Institutional Distribution Model (IDM).
Local OB - These blocks are either within the IDM range or in areas that do not fit any specific criteria. We refer to these as local order blocks.
BOS OB - Order blocks located closest to the Break of Structure (BOS) line.
Additionally, you may encounter mixed order blocks on the chart. In situations where IDM and CHoCH are close to each other, you will see IDM + CHoCH blocks.
Outside the main structure, we mark previous blocks with the label Old , such as Old CHoCH OB and other variations.
We also annotate the volume in all order blocks, showing the traded volume within the candle range near the formation of the order block. This can help you assess the strength of the order block on the chart.
It's important to note that an order block does not necessarily have to be at the peak of a price retracement. For a valid order block to form, several criteria must be met simultaneously. One criterion, for example, is the presence of an FVG along with the order block, among other parameters. Therefore, our order blocks may not always be at the highest points on the chart, but prices often react to our order blocks before reaching the previous high. This is a crucial point to understand.
🟠 Usage Examples
As seen in the example, we broke the structure (CHoCH), transitioning into a downtrend. Now, our points of interest are in the upper blocks. As you remember, IDM acts as a trap for traders, so we focus on the order blocks beyond the IDM. In our case, these are the IDM OB and CHoCH OB. These two order blocks will be our points of interest, depending on the reaction to each of them
As you can see, we broke through the IDM OB rapidly without any significant reaction and reached our second point of interest. This becomes our entry point as we got a reaction from this block. In this scenario, our target will be to break the BOS structure and confirm the downtrend.
Let me provide another example of using the indicator for trend trading.
In this case, we observe a CHoCH break and a trend shift to bullish. Following this, we see an upward movement until the formation of our IDM and a liquidity grab from the high. After this, we can look for our point of interest at the lower boundary.
Additionally, our zone of interest can be an order block from a higher timeframe. In this example, it is a 4-hour order block. Remember, we are currently on the 1-hour timeframe and using the indicator to display order blocks from the higher timeframe.
After descending into our zone of interest, we could consider buying in this zone. Our target could either be breaking the BOS as confirmation of the bullish structure or a reaction to the order block from a higher timeframe.
We've provided two examples of using the indicator, but in reality, there are countless variations, and each trader will find a way to incorporate the indicator into their strategy. While our indicator can be a standalone tool for forming a trading strategy, it offers immense flexibility and adaptability to suit individual trading styles.

Expansion Candles by Alex EntrepreneurHey people! Thanks for using Expansion Candles. I designed this tool to help me identify price runs (expansions) based on consecutive bullish or bearish candle closes and then trade continuations on the lower timeframes. Here's what makes it awesome:
How Does It Work?
An “expansion” is confirmed after multiple closes above the previous candle’s high (in the bull case) or below the previous candle’s low (in the bear case) while also having a higher candle low than the previous candle (in the bull case) or having lower candle high that the previous candle (in the bear case). After an expansion is confirmed, then the indicator will be displayed on the next candle.
You can set the number of required candle closes that confirm an “expansion” by increasing or decreasing the "Required Candles For Valid Expansion" setting.
An expansion will continue until an “invalidation” event occurs this will cause the indicator to stop displaying.
This “invalidation” can either be a lower candle low than the previous candle (in the bull case) and a higher candle high than the previous candle (in the bear case), or a close below the previous candle’s low (in the bull case) or a close above the previous candle’s high (in the bear case).
You can choose whether you want to use candle highs and lows as invalidation or candle closes as invalidation by changing the “Invalidation Type” setting to either “Wick” or “Candle Close”.
Key Features
Price Run Detection : Identify when price is expanding through consecutive bullish or bearish candle closes. You can chose whether a wick or opposite candle close finishes the run.
Timeframe Selection : Select your preferred timeframe for expansion candles and then view the indicator on lower timeframes for precise continuation entries.
Custom Display Options : Tailor the way expansions are shown on your chart. Choose your bullish and bearish colours and then display expansions as coloured candles, background colours, boxes, or arrows.
Sensitivity Adjustment : Adjust the indicator's sensitivity by changing the number of "Required Candles For Valid Expansion" to suit your analysis.
Set Alerts : Detect new bullish or bearish expansions in your favourite instruments with customisable alerts.
Best,
Alex Entrepreneur
ICT Immediate Rebalance Toolkit [LuxAlgo]The ICT Immediate Rebalance Toolkit is a comprehensive suite of tools crafted to aid traders in pinpointing crucial trading zones and patterns within the market.
The ICT Immediate Rebalance, although frequently overlooked, emerges as one of ICT's most influential concepts, particularly when considered within a specific context. The toolkit integrates commonly used price action tools to be utilized in conjunction with the Immediate Rebalance patterns, enriching the capacity to discern context for improved trading decisions.
The ICT Immediate Rebalance Toolkit encompasses the following Price Action components:
ICT Immediate Rebalance
Buyside/Sellside Liquidity
Order Blocks & Breaker Blocks
Liquidity Voids
ICT Macros
🔶 USAGE
🔹 ICT Immediate Rebalance
What is an Immediate Rebalance?
Immediate rebalances, a concept taught by ICT, hold significant importance in decision-making. To comprehend the concept of immediate rebalance, it's essential to grasp the notion of the fair value gap. A fair value gap arises from market inefficiencies or imbalances, whereas an immediate rebalance leaves no gap, no inefficiencies, or no imbalances that the price would need to return to.
Rule of Thumb
After an immediate rebalance, the expectation is for two extension candles to follow; otherwise, the immediate rebalance is considered failed. It's important to highlight that both failed and successful immediate rebalances, when considered within a context, are significant signatures in trading.
Immediate rebalances can occur anywhere and in any timeframe.
🔹 Buyside/Sellside Liquidity
In the context of Inner Circle Trader's teachings, liquidity primarily refers to the presence of stop losses or pending orders, that indicate concentrations of buy or sell orders at specific price levels. Institutional traders, like banks and large financial entities, frequently aim for these liquidity levels or pools to accumulate or distribute their positions.
Buyside liquidity denotes a chart level where short sellers typically position their stops, while Sellside liquidity indicates a level where long-biased traders usually place their stops. These zones often serve as support or resistance levels, presenting potential trading opportunities.
The presentation applied here is the multi-timeframe version of our previously published Buyside-Sellside-Liquidity script.
🔹 Order Blocks & Breaker Blocks
Order Blocks and Breaker Blocks hold significant importance in technical analysis and play a crucial role in shaping market behavior.
Order blocks are fundamental elements of price action analysis used by traders to identify key levels in the market where significant buying or selling activity has occurred. These blocks represent areas on a price chart where institutional traders, banks, or large market participants have placed substantial buy or sell orders, leading to a temporary imbalance in supply and demand.
Breaker blocks, also known as liquidity clusters or pools, complement order blocks by identifying zones where liquidity is concentrated on the price chart. These areas, formed from mitigated order blocks, often act as significant barriers to price movement, potentially leading to price stalls or reversals in the future.
🔹 Liquidity Voids
Liquidity voids are sudden price changes when the price jumps from one level to another. Liquidity voids will appear as a single or a group of candles that are all positioned in the same direction. These candles typically have large real bodies and very short wicks, suggesting very little disagreement between buyers and sellers.
Here is our previously released Liquidity-Voids script.
🔹 ICT Macros
In the context of ICT's teachings, a macro is a small program or set of instructions that unfolds within an algorithm, which influences price movements in the market. These macros operate at specific times and can be related to price runs from one level to another or certain market behaviors during specific time intervals. They help traders anticipate market movements and potential setups during specific time intervals.
Here is our previously released ICT-Macros script.

Reversal Candlestick Structure [LuxAlgo]The Reversal Candlestick Structure indicator detects multiple candlestick patterns occurring when trends are most likely to experience a reversal in real-time. The reversal detection method includes various settings allowing users to adjust the reversal detection algorithm more precisely.
A dashboard showing the percentage of patterns detected as reversals is also included.
🔶 USAGE
Candlestick patterns are ubiquitous to technical analysts, allowing them to detect trend continuations, reversals, and indecision.
The proposed tool effectively detects reversals by using the confluence between candlestick patterns and a reversal detection method based on the stochastic oscillator, acting as a filter for the patterns. If a candlestick pattern occurs while conditions suggest a potential reversal then the pattern is highlighted.
The displayed candle coloring allows users to observe the reversal detection method, with colored candles indicating potential reversals.
Users wanting to detect longer-term reversals can use a higher "Trend Length" setting, this can however lead to an increased amount of displayed candlestick patterns.
To prevent false positives users also have control over a "Threshold" setting in a range between (0, 100), with values closer to 100 preventing candlesticks from being detected at the start of trends.
The "Warmup Length" serves a similar purpose, and aims to prevent sudden moves to be classified as reversals. Higher values of this setting will require trends to be established for a longer period of time for reversal conditions to be detected.
🔹 Dashboard
To evaluate the role of individual candlestick patterns as potential reversal signals relative to the proposed reversal detection method, a dashboard displaying the percentage of candlestick patterns displayed (that occur when a potential reversal is detected) over the total amount detected.
Hovering on the dashboard cells of the "Reversal %" column allows displaying the total amount of patterns detected.
🔶 CANDLESTICKS PATTERNS

Liquidity Grab Zones | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Liquidity Grab Zones Indicator! This indicator finds liquidity grabs in the current ticker and renders buyside & sellside liquidity grab zones. The retests and breakout of the zones are labeled, and you can set up alerts to get notified. For more information, please check the "HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
Features of the new Liquidity Grab Zones Indicator :
Renders Buyside & Sellside Liquidity Grab Zones
Retests & Breaks
Inverse Zones After Broken Feature
Alerts For All Features
Customizable Algorithm
Customizable Styles
🚩UNIQUENESS
Liquidity grabs can be useful when determining candles that have executed a lot of market orders, so you can plann your trades accordingly. This indicator lets you customize the pivot length and the wick-body ratio for liquidity grabs, provide retest & breakout labels, with customized styling and alerts.
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Liquidity grabs occur when one of the latest pivots has a false breakout. Then, if the wick to body ratio of the bar is higher than 0.5 (can be changed from the settings) a zone is plotted.
These zones usually indicate areas of high market interest where price action may reverse or accelerate. Identifying these zones can provide traders with critical levels for entering or exiting trades. A breakout of these zones generally mean strong movements are inbound, while failing breakouts make these zones act like support / resistance zones.
The indicator also reverses the type of the zone after an invalidation (can be turned off from the settings). This feature helps traders identify potential reversals more accurately.
The zone width is set to the area from the wick to the body of the candlestick, which can be seen here :
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Pivot Length -> This setting determines the range of the pivots. This means a candle has to have the highest / lowest wick of the previous X bars and the next X bars to become a high / low pivot.
Wick-Body Ratio -> After a pivot has a false breakout, the wick-body ratio of the latest candle is tested. The resulting ratio must be higher than this setting for it to be considered as a liquidity grab.
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for Liquidity Grab Zone Invalidation.
Use these customizable settings to fine-tune the indicator according to your trading strategy and preferences.
Indecisive CandlesAn Indecisive Candle, often referred to as a Base Candle, is a pivotal element in technical analysis, particularly for identifying institutional supply and demand zones. These candles are characterized by their small bodies and long wicks, reflecting a balance between buyers and sellers, indicating a potential pause or consolidation in the market.
To calculate whether a candle qualifies as an indecisive candle based on the criterion that its body (the absolute difference between its open and close prices) is less than or equal to 50% of the total range of the candle (the difference between its high and low prices).
Key Features:
Small Real Body: Signifies minimal movement from open to close, indicating market indecision.
Long Upper and Lower Wicks: Show that both bulls and bears attempted to control the price, but neither succeeded, leading to a standoff.
Formation Context: Typically found at the end of a strong trend or within a consolidation phase, hinting at a potential reversal or continuation pattern.
Usage in Identifying Institutional Supply and Demand:
Supply Zones: When an Indecisive Candle forms after a rally, it can mark the onset of an institutional supply zone, suggesting that large entities are starting to sell, leading to potential downward pressure.
Demand Zones: Conversely, when this candle appears after a downtrend, it often signals the emergence of a demand zone, where institutions begin to accumulate, anticipating a price increase.
Trading Strategies:
Zone Identification: Use Indecisive Candles to pinpoint key supply and demand zones on your chart, enhancing the accuracy of your support and resistance levels.
Confirmation: Look for confirmation from subsequent price action or volume spikes to validate the presence of institutional activity before making trading decisions.
Risk Management: Place stop-loss orders beyond the wicks of these candles to protect against false breakouts or continued indecision.
Conclusion:
Indecisive Candles are essential tools for traders looking to understand market sentiment and institutional behavior. By mastering their identification and interpretation, you can enhance your ability to spot high-probability trading opportunities and manage risks effectively.
Trend Bars (HTF PO3)Hello Traders!
The innovative TRN Trend Bars are designed to help traders to analyze markets in an intuitive way. The TRN Trend Bars show bullish and bearish trends and reversals based on color coding the bars and give high probability trade opportunities.
How does the Trend Detection work in detail?
The trend analysis is based on a new algorithm that includes several different inputs:
detection of classical and advanced bar patterns
the statistical frequency of these bar patterns and their statistical outcomes are computed based on historical data
probability distributions of price expansions after certain bar patterns
bar information such as wick length in %, overlapping of the previous bar in % and many more
The algorithm weighs these inputs and computes the likelihood of a trend continuation, or a reversal. The likelihood is computed based on statistical information such as occurrence frequency of certain patterns and their historical performance.
The algorithm then outputs a color scheme for the chart bars.
Analyzing the market with the TRN Trend Bar color scheme
Green Bars signify a bullish uptrend. On the other hand, Red Bars indicate a bearish downtrend. The transition from red to green denotes a bullish trend reversal. Conversely, the shift from green to red signals a bearish trend reversal. By monitoring these color changes, traders can identify potential trend reversals and make informed trading decisions.
The presence of gray and black bars indicates a neutral market state, often observed before an impending color change from red to green or green to red. These neutral bars serve as a transition phase between the previous trend and the potential reversal.
How to use TRN Trend Bars for trading?
The TRN Trend Bars are very sensitive. Therefore, they make it easy to find strong short-term trends and pullbacks of the main trend. This can result in high probability entry and exit signals. Here are some trading strategies examples:
Breakouts
After an up breakout of a consolidation or range (or any other chart pattern) you can enter the moment TRN Trend Bars turn green. Alternatively, you wait for a pullback with red bars and enter once a green bar occurs.
Pullbacks
In a trending market you use the TRN Trend Bars for pullback entries. For example, if we are in a strong downtrend and a few green bars occur, then you can enter short once a red bar is displayed.
Exit signals/Trade Management
If you are in a position, you can use the TRN Trend Bars to manage the trade or find good exit points. In case the bar color is not in favor of your position anymore, you can either adjust your stop loss or exit the position completely. E.g. you are in a long position and the bars turn red, then you can either close the trade or tighten your stop loss.
Conclusion
While signals from TRN Trend Bars can be informative, it is important to recognize that their reliability may vary. Various external factors can impact market prices, and it is essential to consider your risk tolerance and investment goals when executing trades.

Trend Bars Pro (HTF PO3)Hello Traders!
The innovative TRN Trend Bars Pro are designed to help traders to analyze markets in an intuitive way and provide high probability entry and exit signals. It combines three core concepts:
TRN Trend Bars to see the current trend and reversals (replaces the default chart bars)
Bar Ranges to highlight consolidations
Dynamic Trend to see the overall trend.
First, let's have a look at each of these concepts individually. Afterwards, we describe how a combination of all three gives you a crystal-clear picture of the market.
TRN Trend Bars Pro
They show bullish and bearish trends and reversals based on color coding the bars and give high probability trade opportunities with special colors. The trend analysis is based on a new algorithm that includes several different inputs:
classical and advanced bar patterns and their statistical frequency
probability distributions of price expansions after certain bar patterns
bar information such as wick length in %, overlapping of the previous bar in % and many more
historical trend and consolidation analysis
The algorithm weighs these concepts and outputs a color scheme for the chart bars or candlesticks.
Bar Types
Trend bars in green and red
Reversal Bars in blue and fuchsia
Continuation Bars in turquoise and orange
Breakout Bars in dark green and pink
Green Bars signify a sustained uptrend, indicating bullish market sentiment. On the other hand, Red Bars indicate a persistent downtrend, representing bearish market sentiment. The transition from red to green denotes a bullish trend reversal, suggesting a shift from bearish to bullish sentiment. Conversely, the shift from green to red signals a bearish trend reversal, indicating a transition from bullish to bearish sentiment. By monitoring these color changes, traders can identify potential trend reversals and make informed trading decisions.
The presence of gray and black bars indicates a neutral market state, often observed before an impending color change from red to green or green to red. These neutral bars serve as a transition phase between the previous trend and the potential reversal.
The TRN Trend Bars Pro incorporate signal bars, distinguished by their distinct colors, to offer potential buy and sell signals and deeper insights into market dynamics.
Reversal Bars
The presence of blue Reversal Bars indicates a trend reversal to the upside, while pink Reversal Bars indicate a reversal to the downside. These bars not only serve as signals for potential trend shifts but also present favorable opportunities to enter the market or increase one's position size.
Continuation Bars
In addition to the reversal bars, the indicator also includes bullish continuation bars (colored turquoise) and bearish continuation bars (colored orange). These bars act as signals for the continuation of an existing trend. Like the reversal bars, they can be utilized as entry points or opportunities to augment one's position size.
Breakout Bars
The dark green breakout bars within TRN Trend Bars Pro show a powerful breakout from a price range detected by our integrated bar range feature. They signify the continuation or potential change in a trend following a consolidation phase. As such, these bars hold dual functionality, serving as reversal signals and validating the persistence of an ongoing trend.
Bar Ranges
The bar range feature automatically finds consolidations where the price range of several consecutives bars is rather small. The detection of the bar ranges includes among other things the overlapping percentage of these bars.
How to Use Price Ranges
Here are a few ways you can use the bar ranges in your trading:
Identify Support and Resistance Levels
The price ranges can help you identify key support and resistance levels on a chart. By observing price ranges and identifying these levels, you can make more informed decisions about entering or exiting trades.
Breakout Trading
Price ranges can also provide insights into potential breakout opportunities. Breakouts occur when the price breaks out of a defined range, signaling a potential shift in market sentiment and the start of a new trend. The Color highlighted Breakout Bars from the TRN Trend Bars Pro are signaling a powerful breakout of a price range. Traders can enter positions in the direction of the breakout and set appropriate stop-loss orders to manage risk. Note that not every price range is left by a powerful breakout.
Dynamic Trend
The Dynamic Trend combines elements from standard trend strength indicators (e.g. DI-, DI+, Parabolic SAR) and volatility indicators (e.g. ATR, Standard Deviation). It produces a moving average line that adapts to changing market volatility. It is inspired by the ideas of the programmer and trader Fat Tails. The adaptive behavior provides more relevant information for traders when compared to traditional moving averages which do not consider volatility and trend strength together. This makes the Dynamic Trend completely unique, and no other moving average indicator can give you this precision.
How to use Dynamic Trend
Generally, a rising Dynamic Trend line, displayed in green, indicates that an uptrend is strong, while a falling Dynamic Trend, displayed in red, suggests that the downtrend is sharp. The Dynamic Trend turns gray when there is insufficient clarity to establish a distinct trend and especially when there is not volatility in the market.
Identify potential trade entries and exits: When used in conjunction with price action, the Dynamic Trend can provide potential trade signals. For example, if the price crosses above the Dynamic Trend, it may be a bullish sign, suggesting a potential buy entry. Conversely, if the price crosses below the Dynamic Trend, it may indicate bearish conditions and a potential sell signal.
Trend Identification and Pullback trading
Observe the Dynamic Trend's color. When it's on the rise and appears green, it indicates a bullish trend. Conversely, if it's in decline and displayed in red, it signals a bearish trend.
If Dynamic Trend is green and price pulls from above back to the Dynamic Trend, then this can be considered as a bullish signal.
If Dynamic Trend is red and price pulls from below back to the Dynamic Trend, then this can be considered as a bearish signal.
In the event of a bearish signal, such as a bearish TRN Signal Bar, and the Dynamic Trend is red, it provides additional confirmation to the bearish signal. Likewise, bullish signals gain added conviction when the Dynamic Trend is green.
Crossovers
As with other moving averages, crossovers between the Dynamic Trend and the price can be significant.
If price is crossing above the Dynamic Trend, then this can be considered as a bullish signal.
If price is crossing below the Dynamic Trend, then this can be considered as a bearish signal.
If you currently hold a position, both bullish and bearish crossovers can serve as potential exit signals. For instance, in the case of a long position, a bearish crossover can indicate a potential shift in sentiment, signaling a bearish reversal and a potential opportunity to close your long position.
Filtering Noise
Due to its adaptive nature, the Dynamic Trend can be a useful tool to filter out market noise. When the market is choppy or consolidating, the Dynamic Trend tends to remain flat and colored gray, signaling traders to potentially stay out of the market.
Stop Losses
The Dynamic Trend can also be used as a dynamic stop loss. For instance, in a long trade, traders can use the Dynamic Trend as a trailing stop, selling their position if the price crosses below the Dynamic Trend.
Combining TRN Trend Bars Pro, Bar Ranges and Dynamic Trend together
Combining all three concepts gives you a crystal-clear picture of the market. The Dynamic Trend shows you the overall trend. If price pulls back to the dynamic trend line and then price picks up the trend direction again, then the TRN Trend Bars Pro immediately switches the color to the trend direction. Therefore, you can easily identify high probability entry signals based on the bar color.
As a simple trading model, you can set the stop loss below the last swing or below a TRN signal bar (vice versa for short entries) and use 2.5 R or 3 R as target.
You can increase the success rate of the high probability TRN signal bars entries even more if they are in line with the Dynamic Trend line.
On the other hand, the TRN Bar Ranges help you to stay out of the market in case the price does not really change. As a confluence signal to stay flat in this period the dynamic trend line tends to be grey as well. If the price breaks out of the range, then the indicator prints a breakout bar which serves as a high probability entry signal.
Although it is possible to switch off any of these concepts, it is highly recommended to use all three in combination to get a crystal-clear picture of the market.
Alerts
Experience the power of our TRN Trend Bars Pro alerts, delivering real-time notifications for trend changes, price range breakouts, and signal bar formations or confirmations. Stay on top of the market with these versatile alerts, customizable to your preferred assets and timeframes.
Conclusion
While signals from TRN Trend Bars Pro can be informative, it is important to recognize that their reliability may vary. Various external factors can impact market prices, and it is essential to consider your risk tolerance and investment goals when executing trades.

Tradr Engulf
Introduction
"Candlesticks" patterns are used to predict price movements. This is engulfing candlestick pattern that is common and very useful in "technical analysis" in this script to identify itautomatically. The most important advantage of this indicator for users is saving time and high precision in identifying patterns. By using these pattern, you can predict price movements more accurately and therefore make better decisions in your trades.
Engulfing : The Engulfing candlestick pattern is a reversal pattern and consists of at least two candles, where one of them completely engulfs the body of the previous or following candle due to high volatility.
For this reason, the term "engulfing" is used for this pattern. This pattern occurs when the price body of a candle encompasses one or more candles before it. Engulfing candles can be bullish or bearish. Bullish Engulfing forms as a reversal candle at the end of a downtrend.
Bullish Engulfing indicates strong buying power and signals the beginning of an uptrend. This pattern is a bullish candle with a long upward body that completely covers the downward body before it. Bearish Engulfing, as a reversal pattern, is a long bearish candle that engulfs the upward candle before it.
Bearish Engulfing forms at the end of an uptrend and indicates the pressure of new sellers and their strong power. Additionally, forming this pattern at resistance levels and the absence of a lower shadow increases its credibility.

Length True Range BarColorOverview
The indicator prints different colors on the candles for pre-determined amplitudes in relation to the simple moving average over the average true range.
Calculations
The indicated value of the simple moving average in relation to the average true range is being used to restrict the color of the candle signal to its pre-determined amplitude.
How It Works
Supposing you have a strategy where there is a need to determine the size of the acceptable signal bar in relation to the average true range, as well as size your stop and target through this range. In summary, coloring based on the size of the amplitude due to the average of the ATR, provides the ease of identifying weak signals, where there will possibly not be a sequence of movement, or identifying stretched signals where it will possibly provide a correction movement. This way you can determine an ideal size range for your input signal. Ex: Color candle signal with size of ( Candle => 2* the SMA (ATR) and <= 3* the SMA (ATR).
Inputs
Valores
Period: To determine the length of the ATR
SMA: To determine the length of the Simple Moving Average
LengthMin: Minimum amplitude size factor
LengthMax: Maximum amplitude size factor
Traço: Coloring ATR
SMA: Coloring SMA
Traço: Coloring TR
Bar Color: Coloring candle Sing
Note 1
The values of ATR, SMA and TR will normally be shown in the indicator header for a dynamic visualization of the values, and possible exceptions for candles signals outside the initially proposed factor can be compared.
Note 2
Codes made available in the PINE language reference manual were used to develop the indicator, therefore it is a practical code for trend following setup strategies not available in the community.
IsAlgo - AI Trend Strategy► Overview:
The AI Trend Strategy employs a combination of technical indicators to guide trading decisions across various markets and timeframes. It uses a custom Super Trend indicator and an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to analyze market trends and executes trades based on specific candlestick patterns. This strategy includes options for setting stop losses, take profit levels, and features an alert system for trade notifications.
► Description:
This strategy focuses on identifying the optimal "entry candle," which signals either a potential correction within the ongoing trend or the emergence of a new trend. The entry criteria for this candle are highly customizable, allowing traders to specify dimensions such as the candle's minimum and maximum size and body ratio. Additional settings include whether this candle should be the highest or lowest compared to recent candles and if a confirmation candle is necessary to validate the entry.
The Super Trend indicator is central to the strategy’s operation, dictating the direction of trades by identifying bullish or bearish trends. Traders have the option to configure trades to align with the direction of the trend identified by this indicator, or alternatively, to take positions counter to the trend for potential reversal strategies. This flexibility can be crucial during varying market conditions.
Additionally, the strategy incorporates an EMA alongside the Super Trend indicator to further analyze trend directions. This combined approach aims to reduce the occurrence of false signals and improve the strategy's overall trend analysis.
The learning algorithm is a standout feature of the AI Trend Strategy. After accumulating data from a predefined number of trades (e.g., after the first 100 trades), the algorithm begins to analyze past performances to identify patterns in wins and losses. It considers variables such as the distance from the current price to the trend line, the range between the highest and lowest prices during the trend, and the duration of the trend. This data informs the algorithm's predictions for future trades, aiming to improve accuracy and reduce losses by adapting to the evolving market conditions.
► Examples of Trade Execution:
1. In an Uptrend: The strategy might detect a suitable entry candle during a correction phase, which aligns with the continuing uptrend for a potential long trade.
2. In a Downtrend: Alternatively, the strategy might identify an entry candle at the end of a downtrend, suggesting a potential reversal or correction where a long trade could be initiated.
3. In an Uptrend: The strategy may also spot an entry candle at the end of an uptrend and execute a short trade, anticipating a reversal or significant pullback.
4. In a Downtrend: The strategy might find a suitable entry candle during a correction phase, indicating a continuation of the downtrend for a potential short trade.
These examples illustrate how the strategy identifies potential trading opportunities based on trend behavior and candlestick patterns.

Untested Levels Dynamic Timeframes**WORKS BEST ON 30M TIMEFRAME**
This indicator, titled "Untested Levels with Timeframes" is designed to identify and visualize price levels within different timeframes that have not been tested recently. Here's a breakdown of its benefits and usage:
Identifying Untested Price Levels: The indicator helps traders identify support and resistance levels that haven't been tested for a specified period within different timeframes. This can be valuable because untested levels may represent potential areas where price could reverse or encounter significant movement.
Customizable Timeframes: The indicator allows users to specify different timeframes (e.g., 30 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, daily) for analyzing untested levels. This flexibility enables traders to adapt the tool to their trading style and preferences.
Visual Representation: Untested levels are plotted on the chart as rays extending to the right. This visual representation makes it easy for traders to identify and assess these levels at a glance, enhancing their chart analysis process.
Dynamic Management: The indicator dynamically manages untested and tested levels over time, ensuring that traders focus on the most relevant price levels within each timeframe. This feature helps prevent clutter on the chart and maintains the indicator's effectiveness.
Potential Trading Opportunities: By identifying untested levels, traders may uncover potential trading opportunities, such as entering trades near untested support or resistance levels or waiting for confirmation of a breakout or reversal at these levels.
Risk Management: Understanding untested levels can also assist in risk management by providing traders with additional context when setting stop-loss levels or determining the risk-reward ratio for a trade.
Overall, this indicator can be a valuable tool for traders seeking to enhance their technical analysis and identify potential trading opportunities based on untested price levels across different timeframes. However, like any trading tool, it's essential to combine it with other analysis techniques and thoroughly backtest it to assess its effectiveness within your trading strategy.
Single Prints - BrightSingle Prints - Bright is a Pine Script indicator designed to identify and visualize significant price levels based on the concept of "single prints." Single prints are price levels where trading activity occurred but with little or no follow-up trading.

Interpreting the Lines:
Color Gradient: The lines are color-coded to indicate their relative age. Red lines are the oldest, transitioning through orange and yellow to green, which are the newest. This color gradient helps in identifying how long a particular level has been significant.
Support and Resistance: Use the lines as potential support and resistance levels. Multiple lines close together indicate stronger levels of support or resistance.
Volatility Analysis: The number of lines within a gap can provide insights into market volatility. More lines indicate higher volatility and multiple potential reversal points within that range.
Trading Strategies:
Entry Points: Consider using the single print lines as entry points. For example, if the price approaches a support level with multiple lines, it may be a good buying opportunity.
Stop Loss and Take Profit: Use the single print lines to set stop-loss and take-profit levels. Placing stop-loss orders below multiple support lines can provide additional protection.
Trend Analysis: Analyze the overall trend and momentum in conjunction with the single print lines to make informed trading decisions. If the price is in an uptrend and approaching resistance lines, watch for potential breakouts or reversals.
