Candlestick analysis
Qullamaggie [Modified] | FractalystWhat's the purpose of this strategy?
The strategy aims to identify high-probability breakout setups in trending markets, inspired by Kristjan "Qullamaggie" Kullamägi’s approach.
It focuses on capturing explosive price moves after periods of consolidation, using technical criteria like moving averages, breakouts, trailing stop-loss and momentum confirmation.
Ideal for swing traders seeking to ride strong trends while managing risk.
----
How does the strategy work?
The strategy follows a systematic process to capture high-momentum breakouts:
Pre-Breakout Criteria:
Prior Price Surge: Identifies stocks that have rallied 30-100%+ in recent month(s), signaling strong underlying momentum (per Qullamaggie’s volatility expansion principles).
Consolidation Phase: Looks for a tightening price range (e.g., flag, pennant, or tight base), indicating a potential "coiling" before continuation.
Trend Confirmation: Uses moving averages (e.g., 20/50/200 EMA) to ensure the stock is trading above key averages on the daily chart, confirming an uptrend.
Price Break: Enters when price clears the consolidation high with conviction.
Risk Management:
Initial Stop Loss: Placed below the consolidation low or a recent swing point to limit downside.
Break-Even Adjustment: Moves stop loss to breakeven once the trade reaches 1.5x risk-to-reward (RR), securing a "free trade" while letting winners run.
Trailing Stop (Unique Edge):
Market Structure Trailing: Instead of trailing via moving averages, the stop is dynamically adjusted using structural invalidation level. This adapts to price action, allowing the trade to stay open during volatile retracements while locking in gains as new structure forms.
Why This Matters: Most strategies use rigid trailing stops (e.g., below the 10EMA), which often exit prematurely in choppy markets. By trailing based on structure, this strategy avoids "noise" and captures larger trends, directly boosting overall returns.
----
What markets or timeframes is this suited for?
This is a long-only strategy designed for trending markets, and it performs best in:
Markets: Stocks (especially high-growth, liquid equities), cryptocurrencies (major pairs with strong volatility), commodities (e.g., oil, gold), and futures (index/commodity futures).
Timeframes: Primarily daily charts for swing trades (1-30 day holds), though weekly charts can help confirm broader trends.
Key Advantage: The TradingView script allows instant backtesting with adjustable parameters
You can:
- Test historical performance across multiple markets to identify which assets align best with the strategy.
- Optimize settings (e.g., trailing stop sensitivity, moving averages etc.) to match a market’s volatility profile.
Build a diversified portfolio by filtering for markets that show consistent profitability in backtests.
For example, you might discover cryptos require tighter trailing stops due to volatility, while stocks thrive with wider structural stops. The script automates this analysis, letting you to trade confidently.
----
What indicators or tools does the strategy use?
The strategy combines customizable technical tools with strict anti-lookahead safeguards:
Core Indicators:
Moving Averages: Adjustable periods (e.g., 20/50/200 EMA or SMA) and timeframes (daily/weekly) to confirm trend alignment. Users can test combinations (e.g., 10EMA vs. 20EMA) to optimize for specific markets.
Breakout Parameters:
Consolidation Length: Adjustable window to define the "tightness" of the pre-breakout pattern.
Entry Models: Flexible entry logics (Breakouts and fractals)
Anti-Lookahead Design:
All calculations (e.g., moving averages, consolidation ranges, volume averages) use only closed/confirmed data available at the time of the signal.
----
How do I manage risk with this strategy?
The strategy prioritizes customizable risk controls to align with your trading style and account size:
User-Defined Risk Inputs:
Risk Per Trade: Set a % of Equity (e.g., 1-2%) to determine position size. The strategy auto-calculates shares/contracts to match your selected risk per trade.
Flexibility: Choose between fixed risk or equity-based scaling.
The script adjusts position sizing dynamically based on your selection.
Pyramiding Feature:
Customizable Entries: Adjust the number of pyramiding trades allowed (e.g., 1-3 additional positions) in the strategy settings. Each new entry is triggered only if the prior trade hits its 1.5x RR target and the trend remains intact.
Risk-Scaled Additions: New positions use profits from prior trades, compounding gains without increasing initial risk.
Risk-Free Trade Mechanic:
Once a trade reaches 1.5x RR, the stop loss is moved to breakeven, eliminating downside risk.
The strategy then opens a new position (if pyramiding is enabled) using a portion of the locked-in profit. This "snowballs" winners while keeping total capital exposure stable.
Impact on Net Profit & Drawdown:
Net Profit Boost: Pyramiding lets you ride multi-leg trends aggressively. For example, a 100% runner could generate 2-3x more profit vs. a single-entry approach.
Controlled Drawdowns: Since new positions are funded by profits (not initial capital), max drawdown stays anchored to your original risk per trade (e.g., 1-2% of account). Even if later entries fail, the breakeven stop on prior trades protects overall equity.
Why This Works: Most strategies either over-leverage (increasing drawdowns) or exit too early. By recycling profits into new positions only after securing risk-free capital, this approach mimics hedge fund "scaling in" tactics while staying retail-trader friendly.
----
How does the strategy identify market structure for its trailing stoploss?
The strategy identifies market structure by utilizing an efficient logic with for loops to pinpoint the first swing candle that features a pivot of 2. This marks the beginning of the break of structure, where the market's previous trend or pattern is considered invalidated or changed.
----
What are the underlying calculations?
The underlying calculations involve:
Identifying Swing Points: The strategy looks for swing highs (marked with blue Xs) and swing lows (marked with red Xs). A swing high is identified when a candle's high is higher than the highs of the candles before and after it. Conversely, a swing low is when a candle's low is lower than the lows of the candles before and after it.
Break of Structure (BOS):
Bullish BOS: This occurs when the price breaks above the swing high level of the previous structure, indicating a potential shift to a bullish trend.
Bearish BOS: This happens when the price breaks below the swing low level of the previous structure, signaling a potential shift to a bearish trend.
Structural Liquidity and Invalidation:
Structural Liquidity: After a break of structure, liquidity levels are updated to the first swing high in a bullish BOS or the first swing low in a bearish BOS.
Structural Invalidation: If the price moves back to the level of the first swing low before the bullish BOS or the first swing high before the bearish BOS, it invalidates the break of structure, suggesting a potential reversal or continuation of the previous trend.
This method provides users with a technical approach to filter market regimes, offering an advantage by minimizing the risk of overfitting to historical data, which is often a concern with traditional indicators like moving averages.
By focusing on identifying pivotal swing points and the subsequent breaks of structure, the strategy maintains a balance between sensitivity to market changes and robustness against historical data anomalies, ensuring a more adaptable and potentially more reliable market analysis tool.
----
What entry criteria are used in this script?
The script uses two entry models for trading decisions: BreakOut and Fractal.
Underlying Calculations:
Breakout: The script records the most recent swing high by storing it in a variable. When the price closes above this recorded level, and all other predefined conditions are satisfied, the script triggers a breakout entry. This approach is considered conservative because it waits for the price to confirm a breakout above the previous high before entering a trade. As shown in the image, as soon as the price closes above the new candle (first tick), the long entry gets taken. The stop-loss is initially set and then moved to break-even once the price moves in favor of the trade.
Fractal: This method involves identifying a swing low with a period of 2, which means it looks for a low point where the price is lower than the two candles before and after it. Once this pattern is detected, the script executes the trade. This is an aggressive approach since it doesn't wait for further price confirmation. In the image, this is represented by the 'Fractal 2' label where the script identifies and acts on the swing low pattern.
----
What type of stop-loss identification method are used in this strategy?
This strategy employs two types of stop-loss methods: Initial Stop-loss and Trailing Stop-Loss.
Underlying Calculations:
Initial Stop-loss:
ATR Based: The strategy uses the Average True Range (ATR) to set an initial stop-loss, which helps in accounting for market volatility without predicting price direction.
Calculation:
- First, the True Range (TR) is calculated for each period, which is the greatest of:
- Current Period High - Current Period Low
- Absolute Value of Current Period High - Previous Period Close
- Absolute Value of Current Period Low - Previous Period Close
- The ATR is then the moving average of these TR values over a specified period, typically 14 periods by default. This ATR value can be used to set the stop-loss at a distance from the entry price that reflects the current market volatility.
Swing Low Based:
For this method, the stop-loss is set based on the most recent swing low identified in the market structure analysis. This approach uses the lowest point of the recent price action as a reference for setting the stop-loss.
Trailing Stop-Loss:
The strategy uses structural liquidity and structural invalidation levels across multiple timeframes to adjust the stop-loss once the trade is profitable. This method involves:
Detecting Structural Liquidity: After a break of structure, the liquidity levels are updated to the first swing high in a bullish scenario or the first swing low in a bearish scenario. These levels serve as potential areas where the price might find support or resistance, allowing the stop-loss to trail the price movement.
Detecting Structural Invalidation: If the price returns to the level of the first swing low before a bullish break of structure or the first swing high before a bearish break of structure, it suggests the trend might be reversing or invalidating, prompting the adjustment of the stop-loss to lock in profits or minimize losses.
By using these methods, the strategy dynamically adjusts the initial stop-loss based on market volatility, helping to protect against adverse price movements while allowing for enough room for trades to develop. The ATR-based stop-loss adapts to the current market conditions by considering the volatility, ensuring that the stop-loss is not too tight during volatile periods, which could lead to premature exits, nor too loose during calm markets, which might result in larger losses. Similarly, the swing low based stop-loss provides a logical exit point if the market structure changes unfavorably.
Each market behaves differently across various timeframes, and it is essential to test different parameters and optimizations to find out which trailing stop-loss method gives you the desired results and performance. This involves backtesting the strategy with different settings for the ATR period, the distance from the swing low, and how the trailing stop-loss reacts to structural liquidity and invalidation levels.
Through this process, you can tailor the strategy to perform optimally in different market environments, ensuring that the stop-loss mechanism supports the trade's longevity while safeguarding against significant drawdowns.
----
What type of break-even method is used in this strategy? What are the underlying calculations?
Moves the initial stop-loss to the entry price when the price reaches a certain RR ratio.
Calculation:
Break-even level = Entry Price + (Initial Risk * RR Ratio)
----
What tables are available in this script?
- Summary: Provides a general overview, displaying key performance parameters such as Net Profit, Profit Factor, Max Drawdown, Average Trade, Closed Trades and more.
Total Commission: Displays the cumulative commissions incurred from all trades executed within the selected backtesting window. This value is derived by summing the commission fees for each trade on your chart.
Average Commission: Represents the average commission per trade, calculated by dividing the Total Commission by the total number of closed trades. This metric is crucial for assessing the impact of trading costs on overall profitability.
Avg Trade: The sum of money gained or lost by the average trade generated by a strategy. Calculated by dividing the Net Profit by the overall number of closed trades. An important value since it must be large enough to cover the commission and slippage costs of trading the strategy and still bring a profit.
MaxDD: Displays the largest drawdown of losses, i.e., the maximum possible loss that the strategy could have incurred among all of the trades it has made. This value is calculated separately for every bar that the strategy spends with an open position.
Profit Factor: The amount of money a trading strategy made for every unit of money it lost (in the selected currency). This value is calculated by dividing gross profits by gross losses.
Avg RR: This is calculated by dividing the average winning trade by the average losing trade. This field is not a very meaningful value by itself because it does not take into account the ratio of the number of winning vs losing trades, and strategies can have different approaches to profitability. A strategy may trade at every possibility in order to capture many small profits, yet have an average losing trade greater than the average winning trade. The higher this value is, the better, but it should be considered together with the percentage of winning trades and the net profit.
Winrate: The percentage of winning trades generated by a strategy. Calculated by dividing the number of winning trades by the total number of closed trades generated by a strategy. Percent profitable is not a very reliable measure by itself. A strategy could have many small winning trades, making the percent profitable high with a small average winning trade, or a few big winning trades accounting for a low percent profitable and a big average winning trade. Most mean-reversion successful strategies have a percent profitability of 40-80% but are profitable due to risk management control.
BE Trades: Number of break-even trades, excluding commission/slippage.
Losing Trades: The total number of losing trades generated by the strategy.
Winning Trades: The total number of winning trades generated by the strategy.
Total Trades: Total number of taken traders visible your charts.
Net Profit: The overall profit or loss (in the selected currency) achieved by the trading strategy in the test period. The value is the sum of all values from the Profit column (on the List of Trades tab), taking into account the sign.
- Monthly: Displays performance data on a month-by-month basis, allowing users to analyze performance trends over each month and year.
- Weekly: Displays performance data on a week-by-week basis, helping users to understand weekly performance variations.
- UI Table: A user-friendly table that allows users to view and save the selected strategy parameters from user inputs. This table enables easy access to key settings and configurations, providing a straightforward solution for saving strategy parameters by simply taking a screenshot with Alt + S or ⌥ + S.

Supply & Demand Zones
_____________________________________________________________________
Supply and Demand Zones
This indicator displays valid Supply and Demand zones on any chart and timeframe, using dynamically updating visuals. Users can see the moment that zones become validated, used, and then invalidated during live sessions. It is sleek, lightweight, and offers a feature-rich settings panel that allows customization of how each element appears and functions. Zones can enhance the probability of successful trades by locating areas that are most likely to contain resting orders of Supply or Demand, which are needed for price reversals.
Disclaimer
____________________
Like all indicators, this can be a valuable tool when incorporated into a comprehensive, risk-based trading system.
Supply and Demand is not the same thing as Support and Resistance.
Trading based on price hitting a zone without understanding which zones are of higher quality and which are of lower quality (only discernible with a trained human eye) will yield poor results.
Supply and Demand works well as a system and even better when added to an existing one. However, like all effective trading techniques, it requires diligent study, practice, and repetition to become proficient. This is an indicator for use with Supply and Demand concepts, not a replacement for learning them.
Features
____________________
Once a valid candle sequence is confirmed, a box will appear that displays the zone over the precise zone range. At 50% zone penetration, a zone becomes used , and at 100% it becomes invalidated . Each of these zone classifications changes the behavior of the zone on the chart immediately. The settings panel offers custom colors for Supply , Demand , Used , and Invalidated zone types.
Borders : The subtle border colors can be changed or hidden.
Boxes or Bases : Advanced users can opt to hide zone boxes and instead display small, subtle tags over base candle groups. This allows for more customizable selection over what is displayed and how.
Max Zones and Hide Invalidated :
There are limitations on how many objects TradingView allows at once. Because of this, once zones go from used to invalidated , they are hidden (deleted) by default. This allows the zones index to be allocated to display more valid , usable zones instead. If a user prefers to keep invalidated zones visible, they can be enabled; however, this will result in showing more recent zones for fewer historical zones.
All zones share one pool, so if you allow fifty max zones, forty-five might be supply while five might be demand on a big sell-off trend. You will always see the most recent zones, regardless of type or status.
It’s up to you how much clutter you want on your screen and how much improved load time you want - but once loaded, zone creation and function are always instantaneous.
Load Time
____________________
Load time refers to the time it takes from when you switch tickers or timeframes before the zones are displayed initially. There is zero lag in the dynamic function and minimal load time, regardless of settings. However, if you are a fine-tuner or multi-screener, the number of Max Zones displayed is the only major variable affecting load time.
I run everything at Max when I develop. When I trade, I run mine at 25 max zones because I change timeframes often and want a very quick display of zones when I do. I have invalidated hidden, and simply enable it if I want to check an old zone. This gives me more zones than I need and reduces the load time to right where I like it.
Thresholds
____________________
It is recommended to leave these as the default.
Base Body Threshold : Determines the maximum ratio of a candle’s body to wick before invalidation. Default (50% or 0.5). A higher number loosens thresholds, resulting in more zones being displayed.
Unrequire 2nd FT if LO is Strong & Strength Multiplier :
The standard logic sequence requires two Follow-Through candles. Under some strong price movement, Leg-Out candles can make an explosive directional move from a base, making a convincing argument for supply and demand perfectly at work, if not for a single Follow-Through candle instead of two.
By enabling this feature, you can tell the script to ignore second Follow-Through candles, if and only if, the Leg-Out candle's range is (Strength) X the base range. exceeds the range of the Base by a factor of X (Strength). ie: At 5x, this would require a Leg-Out range to be 500% the range of the Base.
If enabled and the Leg-Out is not strong enough, the default logic kicks in, and a second follow-through candle will validate the zone as per usual. This loosens thresholds overall and should result in more zones.
Recommended Usage
____________________
Form a thesis using your primary trend trading system (eg: Elliott Wave, Structure Reversal, TheStrat, et al) to identify locations of a pullback for a long or short entry.
Identify a pullback area using your system, then use this indicator to find a high-quality zone on your chosen timeframe.
Once located, draw your own channel over the indicator's zone box. Start on 1m, check for zones, 2m, 3m, and so on. When you see a zone you like, recreate it; thus, when finished, you can see every timeframe’s highest-quality zones that you created, regardless of what timeframe you switch to. Tip: Be selective
To make the process faster, save a channel design in settings for “Demand” and one for “Supply”, then you can quickly get through this process in less than a minute with practice.
Optional: Use additional methods (eg: Fibonacci retracements, Elliott Wave Theory, Anchored VWAPs) to find congruent confirmation.
Version 1.0
____________________
No known bugs remain from the closed beta.
In Development
____________________
Powerful combination zones occur when standard zone sequences are extended with additional levels of demand or supply by adding more conditionals to the state machine logic. Got this mostly working in a dev version and it adds minimal extra resources. Set aside to polish a clean standard 1.0 for release first, but now displaying these extended zones is my top priority for next version.
MTF support is essentially working in a dev copy, but adds resources. Not sure if it is in the spirit of price action being the primary focus of a chart for serious traders, rather than indicators. If there is demand for it, I'll consider it.
Additional Threshold Settings

ICT Order Blocks v2 (Debug)Josh has a very large PP xD
Understanding Order Blocks (OBs) - The ICT Perspective
This document delves into the concept of Order Blocks (OBs) from the perspective of the ICT methodology. It outlines what OBs are, their significance in trading, and how the "ICT Order Blocks v2 (Refined)" indicator functions to identify and visualize these critical price levels. By understanding OBs, traders can better navigate market movements and make informed decisions based on institutional trading behavior.
What is an Order Block (OB)?
Within ICT methodology, an Order Block represents a specific price candle where significant buying or selling interest from institutions (Smart Money) is believed to have occurred. They are potential areas where price might return and react.
Bullish Order Block: Typically the last down-closing candle before a strong, impulsive upward move (displacement). It suggests institutions may have absorbed selling pressure and initiated long positions here.
Bearish Order Block: Typically the last up-closing candle before a strong, impulsive downward move (displacement). It suggests institutions may have distributed long positions or initiated short positions here.
Why are OBs Significant (ICT View)?
Institutional Footprint: They mark potential zones of large order execution.
Support/Resistance: Unmitigated OBs can act as sensitive price levels where reactions are expected. Bullish OBs may provide support; Bearish OBs may provide resistance.
Origin of Moves: They often mark the origin point of significant price swings.
Liquidity Engineering: Institutions might drive price back to OBs to mitigate earlier positions or to engineer liquidity before continuing a move.
Common Refinements
ICT often emphasizes higher probability OBs that are associated with:
Displacement: The move away from the OB is sharp and decisive.
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs): An FVG forming immediately after the OB strengthens its validity.
OB Mitigation: This refers to price returning to the level of the Order Block after its formation. Price might react at the edge (proximal line) or the 50% level (mean threshold) of the OB. An OB is often considered fully mitigated or invalidated if price trades decisively through its entire range, especially with a candle body closing beyond it.
How the "ICT Order Blocks v2 (Refined)" Indicator Works
This indicator automates the detection and visualization of the most recent unmitigated Order Block of each type (Bullish/Bearish), incorporating optional filters.
Detection:
It looks at the relationship between the candle two bars ago ( ), the previous candle ( ), and potentially the current candle ( ).
Bullish OB: Identifies if candle was a down-close (close < open ) AND candle broke above the high of candle (high > high ).
Bearish OB: Identifies if candle was an up-close (close > open ) AND candle broke below the low of candle (low < low ).
Accuracy Filters (Optional Inputs):
These filters help identify potentially higher-probability OBs:
Require Fair Value Gap (FVG)?: If enabled, the indicator checks if an FVG formed immediately after the OB candle ( ). Specifically, it looks for a gap between candle and candle (low > high for Bullish OB confirmation, high < low for Bearish).
Require Strong Close Breakout?: If enabled, it requires the breakout candle ( ) to close beyond the range of the OB candle ( ). (close > high for Bullish, close < low for Bearish). This suggests stronger confirmation.
Storing the Most Recent OB:
When an OB is detected and passes any enabled filters, its details (high, low, formation bar index) are stored. Crucially, this indicator only tracks the single most recent valid unmitigated OB of each type (one Bullish, one Bearish) using var variables. If a newer valid OB forms, it replaces the previously stored one.
Drawing Boxes:
If a valid Bullish OB is being tracked (and Show Bullish OBs is enabled), it draws a box (box.new) using the high and low of the identified OB candle ( ). The same process applies to Bearish OBs (Show Bearish OBs enabled). The boxes automatically extend to the right (extend.right) and their right edge is updated on each new bar (box.set_right) until they are mitigated. Labels ("Bull OB" / "Bear OB") are displayed inside the boxes.
Mitigation & Box Deletion:
The indicator checks if the current closing price (close ) has moved entirely beyond the range of the tracked OB.
Mitigation Rule Used: A Bullish OB is considered mitigated if close < bull_ob_low. A Bearish OB is considered mitigated if close > bear_ob_high. Once an OB is marked as mitigated, the indicator stops tracking it and its corresponding box is automatically deleted (box.delete) from the chart.
This indicator provides a dynamic visualization of the most recent, potentially significant Order Blocks that meet the specified criteria, helping traders identify key areas of interest based on ICT principles.
VVV AB+The VVV AB+ is an indicator that displays information on the chart based on higher time frame candles and their characteristics. The indicator performs the following functions:
Candle Analysis: The indicator calculates the direction and colors (bullish or bearish) of the selected time frame candles and draws a box around the candle body, depending on whether the closing price is higher or lower than the previous candle’s opening price.
Lines: The indicator calculates and displays the median value of the selected candles (the average of the high and low), as well as a simple moving average (SMA), providing additional technical information to the user.
This indicator can be useful for those who focus on analyzing higher time frame candles while visually displaying the candle's direction and other key information, such as the previous day's high/low.
A VVV AB+ egy olyan indikátor, amely a magasabb időkeretű gyertyák és azok jellemzői alapján jelenít meg információkat a grafikonon. Az indikátor az alábbi funkciókat valósítja meg:
Gyertya elemzés: Az indikátor kiszámítja a választható idősíkú gyertyák testének irányát és a színeket (bullish vagy bearish), majd a megfelelő színű dobozt rajzol a gyertya teste köré, attól függően, hogy a záróár magasabb vagy alacsonyabb volt, mint az előző gyertya nyitóára.
Vonalak: Az indikátor kiszámítja és megjeleníti a kiválasztott gyertyák medián értékét (a magas és alacsony átlagát), illetve egy egyszerű mozgóátlagot (SMA), hogy további technikai információkat nyújtson a felhasználónak.
Ez az indikátor hasznos lehet azok számára, akik a magasabb időkeretű gyertyák elemzésére építenek, miközben vizuálisan is megjelenítik a gyertya irányát és más kulcsfontosságú információkat, mint PL előző napi High/Low.

Scalping Strategy Signal v2 by [INFINITYTRADER]Overview
This Pine Script (v6) implements a scalping strategy that uses higher timeframe data (default: 4H) to generate entry and exit signals, originally designed for the 15-minute timeframe with an option for 30-minute charts. The "Scalping Strategy Signal v2 by " integrates moving averages, RSI, volume, ATR, and candlestick patterns to identify trading opportunities. It features adjustable risk management with ATR-based stop-loss, take-profit, and trailing stops, plus dynamic position sizing based on user-set capital. Trades trigger only on the higher timeframe candle close (e.g., 4H) to limit activity within the same period. This closed-source script offers a structured scalping approach, blending multiple entry methods and risk controls for adaptability across market conditions.
What Makes It Unique
Unlike typical scalping scripts relying on single-indicator triggers (e.g., RSI alone or basic MA crossovers), this strategy combines four distinct entry methods—standard MA crossovers, RSI-based momentum shifts, trend-following shorts, and candlestick pattern logic—evaluated on a 4H timeframe for confirmation. This multi-layered design, paired with re-entry logic after losses and a mix of manual, ATR-based, and trailing exits, aims to balance trade frequency and reliability. The higher timeframe filter adds precision not commonly found in simpler scalping tools, while the 30-minute option enhances consistency by reducing noise.
How It Works
Timeframe Logic
Runs on a base timeframe (designed for 15-minute charts, with a 30-minute option) while pulling data from a user-chosen higher timeframe (default: 4H) for signal accuracy.
Limits entries to the close of each 4H candle, ensuring one trade per period to avoid over-trading in volatile conditions.
Indicators and Data
Moving Averages : Employs 21-period and 50-period simple moving averages on the higher timeframe to detect trends and signal entries/exits.
Volume : Requires volume to exceed 70% of its 20-period average on the higher timeframe for momentum confirmation.
RSI : Uses a 14-period RSI for overbought/oversold filtering and a 6-period RSI for precise entry timing.
ATR : Applies a 14-period Average True Range on the higher timeframe to set adaptive stop-loss and take-profit levels.
Candlestick Patterns : Analyzes consecutive green or red 4H bars for trend continuation signals.
Why These Indicators
The blend of moving averages, RSI, volume, ATR, and candlestick patterns forms a robust scalping framework. Moving averages establish trend context, RSI filters momentum and avoids extremes, volume confirms market activity, ATR adjusts risk to volatility, and candlestick patterns enhance entry timing with price action insights. Together, they target small, frequent moves in flat or trending markets, with the 4H filter reducing false signals common in lower-timeframe scalping.
Entry Conditions
Four entry methods are evaluated at the 4H candle close:
Standard Long Entry: Price crosses above the 21-period moving average, volume exceeds 70% of its 20-period average, and the 1H 14-period RSI is below 70—confirms uptrend momentum.
Special Long Entry: The 6-period RSI crosses above 23, price is more than 1.5 times the ATR from the 21-period moving average, and price exceeds its prior close—targets oversold bounces with a stop-loss at the 4H candle’s low.
Short Entries:
- RSI-Based: The 6-period RSI crosses below 68 with volume support—catches overbought pullbacks.
- Trend-Based: Price crosses below the 21-period moving average, volume is above 70% of its average, and the 1H 14-period RSI is above 30—confirms downtrends.
Red/Green Bar Logic: Two consecutive green 4H bars for longs or red 4H bars for shorts—uses candlestick patterns for continuation, with a tight stop-loss from the base timeframe candle.
Re-Entry Logic
Long : After a losing special long, triggers when the 6-period RSI crosses 27 and price crosses the 21-period moving average.
Short : After a losing short, triggers when the 6-period RSI crosses 50 and price crosses below the 21-period moving average.
Purpose: Offers recovery opportunities with stricter conditions.
Exit Conditions
Manual Exits: Longs close if the 21-period MA crosses below the 50-period MA or the 1H 14-period RSI exceeds 68; shorts close if the 21-period MA crosses above the 50-period MA or RSI drops below 25.
ATR-Based TP/SL: Stop-loss is entry price ± ATR × 1.5 (default); take-profit is ± ATR × 4 (default), checked at 4H close.
Trailing Stop: Adjusts ±6x ATR from peak/trough, closing if price retraces within 1x ATR.
Special/Tight SL: Special longs exit if price opens below the 4H candle’s low; 4th method entries use the base timeframe candle’s low/high, checked every bar.
Position Sizing
Bases trade value on user-set capital (default: 100 USDT), dividing by the higher timeframe close price for dynamic sizing.
Visualization
Displays a table at the bottom-right with current/previous signals, TP/SL levels, equity, trading pair, and trade size—color-coded for clarity (green for buy, red for sell).
Inputs
Initial Capital (USDT): Sets trade value (default: 100, min: 1).
ATR Stop-Loss Multiplier: Adjusts SL distance (default: 1.5, min: 1).
ATR Take-Profit Multiplier: Adjusts TP distance (default: 4, min: 1).
Higher Timeframe: Selects analysis timeframe (options: 1m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1H, 4H, D, W; default: 4H).
Usage Notes
Intended Timeframe: Designed for 15-minute charts with 4H confirmation for precision and frequency; 30-minute charts improve consistency by reducing noise.
Backtesting: Adjust ATR multipliers and capital to match your asset’s volatility and risk tolerance.
Risk Management: Combines manual, ATR, and trailing exits—monitor to avoid overexposure.
Limitations: 4H candle-close dependency may delay entries in fast markets; RSI/volume filters can reduce trades in low-momentum periods.
Backtest Observations
Tested on BTC/USDT (4H higher timeframe, default settings: Initial Capital: 100 USDT, ATR SL: 1.5x, ATR TP: 4x) across market conditions, comparing 15-minute and 30-minute charts:
Bull Market (Jul 2023 - Dec 2023):
15-Minute: 277 long, 219 short; Win Rate: 42.74%; P&L: 108%; Drawdown: 1.99%; Profit Factor: 3.074.
30-Minute: 257 long, 215 short; Win Rate: 49.58%; P&L: 116.85%; Drawdown: 2.34%; Profit Factor: 3.14.
Notes: Moving average crossovers and green bar patterns suited this bullish phase; 30-minute improved win rate and P&L by filtering weaker signals.
Bear Market (Jan 2022 - Jun 2022):
15-Minute: 262 long, 211 short; Win Rate: 44.4%; P&L: 239.80%; Drawdown: 3.74%; Profit Factor: 3.419.
30-Minute: 250 long, 200 short; Win Rate: 52.22%; P&L: 258.77%; Drawdown: 5.34%; Profit Factor: 3.461.
Notes: Red bar patterns and RSI shorts thrived in the downtrend; 30-minute cut choppy reversals for better consistency.
Flat Market (Jan 2021 - Jun 2021):
15-Minute: 280 long, 208 short; Win Rate: 51.84%; P&L: 340.33%; Drawdown: 9.59%; Profit Factor: 2.924.
30-Minute: 270 long, 209 short; Win Rate: 55.11%; P&L: 315.42%; Drawdown: 7.21%; Profit Factor: 2.598.
Notes: High trade frequency and P&L showed strength in ranges; 30-minute lowered drawdown for better risk control.
Results reflect historical performance on BTC/USDT with default settings—users should test on their assets and timeframes. Past performance does not guarantee future results and is shared only to illustrate the strategy’s behavior.
Why It Works Well in Flat Markets
A "flat market" lacks strong directional trends, with price oscillating around moving averages, as in Jan 2021 - Jun 2021 for BTC/USDT. This strategy excels here because its crossover-based entries trigger frequently in tight ranges. In trending markets, an exit might not be followed by a new entry without a pullback, but flat markets produce multiple crossovers, enabling more trades. ATR-based TP/SL and trailing stops capture these small swings, while RSI and volume filters ensure momentum, driving high P&L and win rates.
Technical Details
Built in Pine Script v6 for TradingView compatibility.
Prevents overlapping trades with long/short checks.
Handles edge cases like zero division and auto-detects the trading pair’s base currency (e.g., BTC from BTCUSDT).
This strategy suits scalpers seeking structured entries and risk management. Test on 15-minute or 30-minute charts to match your style and market conditions.

malama's volume spikeThe "malama's volume spike" indicator identifies and highlights bars where the trading volume significantly exceeds the average, signaling potential market interest or activity. It calculates a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the volume over a user-defined period and compares the current volume against this average multiplied by a specified threshold factor. Bars where the volume surpasses this threshold are colored yellow on the chart, providing a visual cue for traders to identify potential trading opportunities.
How It Works:
Volume Moving Average (SMA): The indicator computes the SMA of the volume over a period defined by the user (default is 20 bars).
Threshold Calculation: It multiplies the SMA by a user-defined factor (default is 2.0) to set the volume spike threshold.
Volume Spike Detection: If the current volume exceeds this threshold, the corresponding bar is highlighted in yellow.
Usage:
Volume MA Length: Adjust this parameter to set the period over which the volume SMA is calculated. A shorter length responds more quickly to recent volume changes, while a longer length smooths out short-term fluctuations.
Volume Threshold Factor: Modify this factor to set the sensitivity of the volume spike detection. A lower value will highlight more bars, while a higher value will highlight fewer, more significant spikes.
PowerZone Trading StrategyExplanation of the PowerZone Trading Strategy for Your Users
The PowerZone Trading Strategy is an automated trading strategy that detects strong price movements (called "PowerZones") and generates signals to enter a long (buy) or short (sell) position, complete with predefined take profit and stop loss levels. Here’s how it works, step by step:
1. What is a PowerZone?
A "PowerZone" (PZ) is a zone on the chart where the price has shown a significant and consistent movement over a specific number of candles (bars). There are two types:
Bullish PowerZone (Bullish PZ): Occurs when the price rises consistently over several candles after an initial bearish candle.
Bearish PowerZone (Bearish PZ): Occurs when the price falls consistently over several candles after an initial bullish candle.
The code analyzes:
A set number of candles (e.g., 5, adjustable via "Periods").
A minimum percentage move (adjustable via "Min % Move for PowerZone") to qualify as a strong zone.
Whether to use the full candle range (highs and lows) or just open/close prices (toggle with "Use Full Range ").
2. How Does It Detect PowerZones?
Bullish PowerZone:
Looks for an initial bearish candle (close below open).
Checks that the next candles (e.g., 5) are all bullish (close above open).
Ensures the total price movement exceeds the minimum percentage set.
Defines a range: from the high (or open) to the low of the initial candle.
Bearish PowerZone:
Looks for an initial bullish candle (close above open).
Checks that the next candles are all bearish (close below open).
Ensures the total price movement exceeds the minimum percentage.
Defines a range: from the high to the low (or close) of the initial candle.
These zones are drawn on the chart with lines: green or white for bullish, red or blue for bearish, depending on the color scheme ("DARK" or "BRIGHT").
3. When Does It Enter a Trade?
The strategy waits for a breakout from the PowerZone range to enter a trade:
Buy (Long): When the price breaks above the high of a Bullish PowerZone.
Sell (Short): When the price breaks below the low of a Bearish PowerZone.
The position size is set to 100% of available equity (adjustable in the code).
4. Take Profit and Stop Loss
Take Profit (TP): Calculated as a multiple (adjustable via "Take Profit Factor," default 1.5) of the PowerZone height. For example:
For a buy, TP = Entry price + (PZ height × 1.5).
For a sell, TP = Entry price - (PZ height × 1.5).
Stop Loss (SL): Calculated as a multiple (adjustable via "Stop Loss Factor," default 1.0) of the PZ height, placed below the range for buys or above for sells.
5. Visualization on the Chart
PowerZones are displayed with lines on the chart (you can hide them with "Show Bullish Channel" or "Show Bearish Channel").
An optional info panel ("Show Info Panel") displays key levels: PZ high and low, TP, and SL.
You can also enable brief documentation on the chart ("Show Documentation") explaining the basic rules.
6. Alerts
The code generates automatic alerts in TradingView:
For a bullish breakout: "Bullish PowerZone Breakout - LONG!"
For a bearish breakdown: "Bearish PowerZone Breakdown - SHORT!"
7. Customization
You can tweak:
The number of candles to detect a PZ ("Periods").
The minimum percentage move ("Min % Move").
Whether to use highs/lows or just open/close ("Use Full Range").
The TP and SL factors.
The color scheme and what elements to display on the chart.
Practical Example
Imagine you set "Periods = 5" and "Min % Move = 2%":
An initial bearish candle appears, followed by 5 consecutive bullish candles.
The total move exceeds 2%.
A Bullish PowerZone is drawn with a high and low.
If the price breaks above the high, you enter a long position with a TP 1.5 times the PZ height and an SL equal to the height below.
The system executes the trade and exits automatically at TP or SL.
Conclusion
This strategy is great for capturing strong price movements after consolidation or momentum zones. It’s automated, visual, and customizable, making it useful for both beginner and advanced traders. Try it out and adjust it to fit your trading style!

TriplePower55%🔴 Bearish Candle (Losing Candle)
🔹 Definition:
A candle that closes below the opening price.
Important condition: the body of the candle must be ≥ 55% of the entire candle's range.
It is automatically colored red on the platform.
🔹 Significance:
Used to identify resistance levels or initiate the Triple Power analysis.
The last valid bearish candle (with a body and that broke a bullish candle) is selected to draw Fibonacci levels.
🔹 How it's handled:
When the price closes above the high of the bearish candle, an upward wave begins.
The indicator draws a blue line at its high and a red line at its low, with the timeframe labeled (e.g., TF: M).
🟢 Bullish Candle (Winning Candle)
🔹 Definition:
A candle that closes above the opening price.
Its body must be ≥ 55% of the total candle's range.
It is automatically colored green on the platform.
🔹 Significance:
Used to identify support levels, or as a reference in extensions or pauses.
The last closed bullish candle is used to draw extension targets if there’s no valid bearish candle.
🔹 How it's handled:
If the price closes below the low of the monthly bullish candle, it signals the start of a strong downward trend.
If the low is not broken, the movement is considered a temporary pause.
The stop level is placed at the low of the last closed bullish candle.
Engulfing 3x PatternDescription:
The "Engulfing 3x Pattern" indicator identifies bullish and bearish engulfing candlestick patterns where the engulfing candle's body is at least three times larger than the body of the previous candle. This highlights significant momentum shifts in the market, focusing solely on body size (open to close), ignoring wicks.
Bullish Engulfing: A bearish candle (close below open) is followed by a larger bullish candle (close above open) that fully engulfs the prior candle’s body and has a body at least 3x larger. Marked with a green triangle below the bar.
Bearish Engulfing: A bullish candle (close above open) is followed by a larger bearish candle (close below open) that engulfs the prior candle’s body and has a body at least 3x larger. Marked with a red triangle above the bar.
How It Works:
This indicator scans for engulfing patterns and applies a size filter to ensure the engulfing candle demonstrates strong conviction. It’s useful for traders looking for potential reversals or continuation signals backed by significant price movement. The 3x multiplier can be adjusted in the code (e.g., to 2x or 5x) for customization.
Usage Tips:
Best used with confirmation from support/resistance levels, trends, or other indicators.
More reliable on higher timeframes (e.g., daily, 4-hour).
Signals are purely price-based; consider volume or momentum indicators for additional context.
Time Compression ZonesTime Compression Zones is an experimental indicator based on the idea that markets often "go silent" before making a strong move. During these moments, volatility drops, price action slows down, and energy accumulates beneath the surface — often followed by an explosive breakout.
The indicator identifies "time compression zones" — periods where the current volatility drops below a specific threshold relative to its moving average. These areas are highlighted on the chart and may serve as early signals of upcoming market expansion.
Time Compression Zones — это экспериментальный индикатор, основанный на идее, что рынок перед сильным движением часто "замирает". В такие моменты волатильность падает, движение становится вялым, но внутри копится энергия, которая вскоре может "взорваться" в виде импульса вверх или вниз.
This is not a directional indicator — it highlights pre-breakout conditions
Best used on 1H to 4H timeframes
Ideal for cryptocurrencies, gold, and futures
//RU
Индикатор определяет зоны "временного сжатия" — участки, где текущая волатильность падает ниже определённого порога относительно своей средней величины. Эти участки визуально выделяются на графике и могут указывать на приближающийся выход из "зоны накопления".
Индикатор не даёт направленного сигнала — он показывает периоды ожидания.
Лучше всего работает на 1H–4H таймфреймах
Подходит для криптовалют, фьючерсов, золота

StockLeave Signal BarsOverview
The Signal Bars indicator identifies potential trade entries by highlighting expansion and reversal bars. These are defined by individual bar characteristics and further refined by contextual factors such as price position relative to structural boundaries. The purpose is to locate bars that signal potential market initiation or reaction.
Expansion Bars
The expansion captures bars that breakout from a period of reduced volatility. These often initiate directional movement and are recognized using a two-part definition.
Range Expansion: The current bar’s range must exceed the average range. This ensures the move is comparatively large and stands out from recent behavior.
Range Compression: The bars before the expansion must be below a threshold of the average range. This confirms a low-volatility lead-up, strengthening the likelihood that the expansion has significance.
This script applies additional filters: a local breakout ensures price breaks the previous bar’s high or low; a strong close confirms directional intent by requiring the close near the bar’s extreme; mean proximity checks that expansion starts near the mean price using a dynamic buffer relative to bar size; a directional filter blocks signals during extended directional runs; and consecutive suppression prevents multiple expansions to show in succession.
Pin Bar Reversals
Reversal setups aim to identify potential turning points after price has reached a zone of imbalance or extension. These bars typically exhibit long tails and occur near structural boundaries such as the outer Keltner bands. Their design favors short-term price rejection and potential reversal.
Tail Dominance: The wick (upper or lower) must be at least twice the size of the bar’s body and account for more than a certain percentage of the entire bar’s range. This ensures the bar represents strong rejection rather than mere indecision.
Close Location: The bar must close near the opposite end of its wick to confirm that rejection was held into the close. For bearish reversals, the close must be near the low; for bullish reversals, near the high. This reinforces intent and pressure in the direction of the reversal.
This script applies additional filters: local extreme ensures the bar marks a local turning point to confirm reversals occur after extension, not within structure; boundary proximity requires the bar to appear near the outer Keltner Bands, aligning bearish signals with the upper band and bullish with the lower, indicating price has reached an area of likely imbalance.
Snapback Reversals
Snapbacks are structured to capture failed extensions outside structural boundaries. While traditional reversals are identified by a single bar with a rejecting tail, snapbacks use a two-bar sequence: a strong impulse bar that closes beyond the bands, followed by a bar that reclaims in the opposite direction. The difference lies in the formation, not the intent, as both anticipate a reversion after price imbalance.
Impulse Bar Criteria: The previous bar must close beyond the upper (bullish impulse) or lower (bearish impulse) Keltner band. It must also close near its extreme and have a large body. This confirms strong directional pressure.
The current bar must close beyond the midpoint of the previous bar’s body and reverse the prior direction. This signals a failure to follow through and a snapback into the prior range. These will show only when price extends beyond the boundaries. This ensures that the setup targets failed breakouts rather than normal pullbacks or mid-range fluctuation.
Alert Configuration
The Signal Bars indicator includes an alert function with two built-in conditions to help reduce screen time and focus attention when predefined conditions are met.
Expansion: Alerts when a bar meets all conditions for a valid expansion.
Reversal: Alerts when a bar meets the criteria for a pin bar or snapback reversal.
These are built into the indicator with the alertcondition() function and can be turned on whenever the indicator is applied to a chart. Each alert includes a default message that uses dynamic placeholders; {{ticker}} for the symbol and {{interval}} for the timeframe.
Create a new alert and select the condition “StockLeave Signal Bars.”
Then select from the two options: Expansion and Reversal.
For expansions, select “once per bar” to capture developing momentum.
For reversals, use “once per bar close” to confirm rejection setups.
Apply alerts across multiple timeframes to improve coverage. Lower timeframes are better suited for fast-moving markets, while higher timeframes work well in slower or more selective environments. This process only needs to be done once. The created alerts can then be toggled on or off from the Alerts panel as preferred, without requiring reconfiguration.
Applied Discretion
The indicator functions on fixed logic, but interpretation always takes precedence. Consider price action, structure, volatility, and broader market context. Most signals will not lead to trades; while many may appear in a session, only a select few will align with context and warrant execution based on discretion.
Shaved Candle IdentifierThis script is different because it actually highlights the candle and is not just an icon. It will identify bars that have no wick. Each color represents a different type of candle.
Shaved candles represent major liquidity zones, and tend to get swept in the future.
Shaved candles are useful for spotting reversals and as price targets.
Green is when open = low
Red is when open = high
Blue is when close = high
Orange is when close = low
There is 0 tolerance for any deviation, if the price is 0.001 off, it will not be identified. Only absolutely shaved candles will be identified.
The Alchemist's Codex | Divergences of Multi Length RSI This Pine Script 5 indicator, titled "The Alchemist's Codex - Project La Grande Finale | Slope Loop Based Divergences of Multi Length RSI," is designed to identify potential bullish and bearish divergences between price and a custom-calculated Relative Strength Index (RSI). It aims to provide traders with signals based on the momentum and rate of change of price and RSI.
Here's a breakdown of its functionality:
1. Custom RSI Calculation:
The script begins by calculating a unique RSI variant. It iterates through various lookback periods (from 1 to a user-defined maximum), computing the RSI for each.
It incorporates a dual weighting mechanism, considering both the rate of change and the time elapsed since significant RSI changes. This aims to provide a more nuanced representation of momentum.
The script calculates averages incorporating both slope and time factors.
The calculated RSI values are then again averaged over the defined lookback range to produce a final, smoothed RSI output.
2. Slope Calculation and Divergence Detection:
The script calculates the average slopes of both the price and the custom RSI over a range of lengths (from a minimum to a maximum defined by the user).
It ranks calculations to determine the relative strength of the price and RSI slopes.
It then identifies potential bullish and bearish divergences by comparing the percent ranks of the price and RSI slopes, along with comparing the current price and RSI values to previous values over a short and long lookback.
Bullish divergences occur when the price makes lower lows while the RSI makes higher lows, and when the price slope is very low, and the RSI slope is very high. Additionally it checks that the current price slope is higher than the previous price slope.
Bearish divergences occur when the price makes higher highs while the RSI makes lower highs, and when the price slope is very high, and the RSI slope is very low. Additionally it checks that the current price slope is lower than the previous price slope.
3. Visualizations:
The script plots labels on the chart to indicate bullish and bearish divergences.
It also plots the average price and RSI slopes, allowing traders to visually assess the momentum and direction of both.
Key Input Parameters:
length: Base RSI length.
rsiThreshold: Defines a meaningful change in RSI.
price_source: Source of price data.
minLength, maxLength: Range of lengths for slope calculations.
Low_Percentage_rank, High_Percentage_rank: Percent rank thresholds for divergence detection.
x, z: lookback periods for the bullish and bearish divergence conditions.
mult: A multiplier.
In essence, this indicator combines a custom RSI calculation with slope analysis and percent rank evaluation to identify potential divergences, providing traders with signals based on momentum and relative strength.
