SOT & SA Detector ProSOT & SA Detector Pro- Advanced Reversal Pattern Recognition
OVERVIEW
The SOT & SA Detector is an educational indicator designed to identify potential market reversal points through systematic analysis of candlestick patterns, volume confirmation, and price wave structures. SOT (Shorting of Thrust) signals suggest potential bearish reversals after upward price movements, while SA (Selling Accumulation) signals indicate possible bullish reversals following downward trends. This tool helps traders recognize key market transition points by combining multiple technical criteria for enhanced signal reliability.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
HOW IT WORKS
Technical Methodology
The indicator employs a multi-factor analysis approach that evaluates:
Wave Structure Analysis: Identifies minimum 2-bar directional waves (upward for SOT, downward for SA)
Price Delta Validation: Ensures closing price changes remain within specified percentage thresholds (default 0.3%) best 0.1.
Candlestick Tail Analysis: Measures rejection wicks using configurable tail multipliers
Volume Confirmation: Requires increased volume compared to previous periods
Pattern Confirmation: Validates signals through subsequent price action
Signal Generation Process
Pattern Recognition: Scans for qualifying candlestick formations with appropriate tail characteristics
Volume Verification: Confirms patterns with volume expansion using adjustable multiplier
Price Confirmation: Validates signals when price breaks and closes beyond pattern extremes
Signal Display: Places labeled markers and draws horizontal reference levels
Mathematical Foundation
Delta calculation: math.abs(close - close ) / close <= deltaPercent / 100
Tail analysis: (high - close ) >= tailMultiplier * (close - low ) for SOT
Volume filter: volume >= volume * volumeFactor
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
KEY FEATURES
Dual Pattern Recognition: Identifies both bullish (SA) and bearish (SOT) reversal candidates
Volume Integration: Incorporates volume analysis for enhanced signal validation
Customizable Parameters: Adjustable wave length, delta percentage, tail multiplier, and volume factor
Visual Clarity: Color-coded bar highlighting, labeled signals, and horizontal reference levels
Time-Based Filtering: Configurable analysis period to focus on recent market activity
Non-Repainting Signals: Confirmed signals remain stable and do not change with new price data
Alert System: Built-in notifications for both initial signals and subsequent confirmations
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
HOW TO USE
Signal Interpretation
Red SOT Labels: Appear above potential bearish reversal candles with downward-pointing markers
Green SA Labels: Display below potential bullish reversal candles with upward-pointing markers
Horizontal Lines: Extend from signal levels to provide ongoing reference points
Bar Coloring: Highlights qualifying pattern candles for visual emphasis
Trading Application
This indicator serves as an educational tool for pattern recognition and should be used in conjunction with additional analysis methods. Consider SOT signals as potential areas of selling pressure following upward moves, while SA signals may indicate buying interest after downward price action.

Candlestick analysis
Volume Engulfing DetectorThis indicator is built to detect powerful shifts in market participation by analyzing volume surges during directional candles — not traditional "engulfing" patterns based on candle body structure, but volume-driven dominance by buyers or sellers.
Instead of relying on the classic visual engulfing pattern, it flags situations where a bullish or bearish candle prints with significantly higher volume than its predecessor, and where that volume also surpasses key benchmarks from previous opposing moves.
This approach is designed to capture institutional activity, smart money footprints, or hidden accumulation/distribution, which often manifest as volume spikes even in the absence of textbook candlestick formations.
🚦 Key Features
✅ 1. Volume-Based Engulfing Detection
The script identifies candles where:
A bullish candle's volume exceeds the previous candle’s total volume and the previous candle was bearish (and vice versa for bearish engulfing).
Additionally, the bullish engulfing volume must also be greater than the volume of the last bearish engulfing (and vice versa).
This helps filter out false engulfing signals and only highlights the ones with significant participation or conviction.
🔷 Plotted with: Vol↑Eng (Green label below candle)
🔻 Plotted with: Vol↓Eng (Red label above candle)
✅ 2. High-Volume Rejection Markers (Non-Engulfing)
Sometimes a candle doesn’t engulf the previous one, but the volume is so dominant that it may still indicate a powerful reversal or failed breakout. This indicator flags those too:
If a bullish candle has volume higher than any bearish engulfing volume seen today, it’s marked as a potential buy-side absorption.
If a bearish candle has volume higher than any bullish engulfing volume today, it may be a sign of sell-side rejection.
🟢 Plotted with: Vol↑Big (Lime triangle up)
🔴 Plotted with: Vol↓Big (Maroon triangle down)
⏰ Daily Reset & Filtering
All volume comparisons are done within the current trading day, so each day's context is treated independently.
The first candle of the day is ignored, preventing skewed signals due to overnight gaps or opening volatility.
🔔 Alerts Included
You can set alerts on:
Bullish or bearish volume-engulfing candles.
High-volume rejection candles.
This ensures you’re notified in real time when the market shows signs of strong accumulation or distribution, even if you're not actively monitoring the chart.
💡 Use Cases
Day Traders: Identify potential intraday reversals or trend initiations with volume confirmation.
Swing Traders: Use engulfing and high-volume patterns to time entries after pullbacks or breakouts.
Volume Analysts: Study how price responds when volume exceeds critical historical thresholds.
Tape Readers: Get a visual clue of where smart money might be stepping in based on volume surges.
📌 Final Thoughts
This indicator filters out noise and focuses on volume-dominant price actions, giving you a cleaner and more actionable view of the market. Use it to complement your existing strategy, particularly when looking for high-conviction turning points on the chart.
Whether you're trading equities, indices, or futures — this tool brings volume context to price action in a simple and visual way.

ATR % Line from Day LowHow can you make sure that you're not buying a stock that is too extended?
By limiting your buys to within a certain percentage of either the low-of-the-day (LoD) if you're going long, or to the high-of-the-day (HoD) if you're shorting a stock. This script will help you do just that.
Limiting stock purchases to within a certain percentage of the Average True Range (ATR) from the day's low or high is a risk management technique that offers several key benefits:
Risk Control and Position Sizing
By using ATR as a boundary, you're essentially creating a volatility-adjusted buffer. Since ATR measures recent price volatility, this approach prevents you from buying into stocks that have already moved significantly beyond their normal trading range. This helps avoid entering positions when the stock might be overextended and due for a pullback.
Improved Entry Timing
This strategy encourages patience and discipline. Rather than chasing a stock that's already run up substantially from its low, you wait for better entry points. For example, if you set a limit of 50% of ATR from the day's low, you're only buying when the stock hasn't moved more than half its typical daily range from the bottom.
Volatility Awareness
ATR naturally adjusts for each stock's individual volatility characteristics. A high-volatility stock might have an ATR of $2, while a low-volatility stock might have an ATR of $0.50. This approach scales your entry criteria appropriately for each security rather than using arbitrary dollar amounts.
Reduced Emotional Trading
Having a systematic rule removes the temptation to chase momentum or buy at poor technical levels. It forces you to wait for the stock to come back to more reasonable levels relative to its recent trading behavior.
Better Risk-Reward Ratios
By entering closer to the day's low (within your ATR percentage), you're typically getting a better risk-reward setup. Your stop loss (often placed below the day's low) will be tighter, while your potential upside remains intact.
This approach works particularly well for swing traders and those looking to enter positions on pullbacks or during consolidation periods rather than breakout scenarios.
To save valuable real estate on your chart, there's also an option that can give you a compact version of this indicator which will show only the "Current Day's Low/High" and "Target Price". "Target Price" being the price at which your max buy limit is based on the % ATR you choose in settings.

LTHB & HTLB Zones with AlertsIn price action trading, the Lowest Tick of the Highest Bar (LTHB) and the Highest Tick of the Lowest Bar (HTLB) are important concepts for support/resistance identification, trend exhaustion, and reversal confirmation. Here's what they mean and why they matter:
🔹 Definitions
1. Lowest Tick of the Highest Bar (LTHB):
The lowest price (tick) of the bar (candlestick) with the highest high in a recent price swing.
Significance: It marks the support inside an upward swing. If price breaks below this, it often indicates loss of upward momentum or reversal.
2. Highest Tick of the Lowest Bar (HTLB):
The highest price of the bar with the lowest low in a swing.
Significance: It acts as a resistance inside a downward swing. If price moves above this, it can signal a bullish reversal.
🔸 Why Are They Significant?
Concept LTHB HTLB
Trend Reversal - Break below LTHB → possible bearish reversal Break above HTLB → possible bullish reversal
Swing Confirmation -Holding above LTHB → continuation of uptrend Holding below HTLB → continuation of downtrend
Trap Detection - Stop hunts often occur just below LTHB Stop hunts often occur just above HTLB
Risk Management -Acts as logical stop-loss in long trades Acts as logical stop-loss in short trades
🔸 Uses in Strategy
1. Breakout Traders use these levels as entry triggers.
2. Reversal Traders look for price failing to hold these levels for early reversal signs.
3. Structure-Based Traders use them to confirm higher highs/lower lows.
4. Stop Placement: Tight stops just beyond LTHB/HTLB help manage risk in swing trades.
🔔 How to Set Alerts in TradingView:
Add the script to your chart.
Open the "⚠️ Alerts" tab.
Click "Create Alert".
In the "Condition" dropdown, select one of:
Enter LTHB Zone
Exit LTHB Zone
Enter HTLB Zone
Exit HTLB Zone
Set desired alert frequency (e.g., once per bar or once).
Click Create.
Long-Leg Doji Breakout StrategyThe Long-Leg Doji Breakout Strategy is a sophisticated technical analysis approach that capitalizes on market psychology and price action patterns.
Core Concept: The strategy identifies Long-Leg Doji candlestick patterns, which represent periods of extreme market indecision where buyers and sellers are in equilibrium. These patterns often precede significant price movements as the market resolves this indecision.
Pattern Recognition: The algorithm uses strict mathematical criteria to identify authentic Long-Leg Doji patterns. It requires the candle body to be extremely small (≤0.1% of the total range) while having long wicks on both sides (at least 2x the body size). An ATR filter ensures the pattern is significant relative to recent volatility.
Trading Logic: Once a Long-Leg Doji is identified, the strategy enters a "waiting mode," monitoring for a breakout above the doji's high (long signal) or below its low (short signal). This confirmation approach reduces false signals by ensuring the market has chosen a direction.
Risk Management: The strategy allocates 10% of equity per trade and uses a simple moving average crossover for exits. Visual indicators help traders understand the pattern identification and trade execution process.
Psychological Foundation: The strategy exploits the natural market cycle where uncertainty (represented by the doji) gives way to conviction (the breakout), creating high-probability trading opportunities.
The strength of this approach lies in its ability to identify moments when market sentiment shifts from confusion to clarity, providing traders with well-defined entry and exit points while maintaining proper risk management protocols.
How It Works
The strategy operates on a simple yet powerful principle: identify periods of market indecision, then trade the subsequent breakout when the market chooses direction.
Step 1: Pattern Detection
The algorithm scans for Long-Leg Doji candles, which have three key characteristics:
Tiny body (open and close prices nearly equal)
Long upper wick (significant rejection of higher prices)
Long lower wick (significant rejection of lower prices)
Step 2: Confirmation Wait
Once a doji is detected, the strategy doesn't immediately trade. Instead, it marks the high and low of that candle and waits for a definitive breakout.
Step 3: Trade Execution
Long Entry: When price closes above the doji's high
Short Entry: When price closes below the doji's low
Step 4: Exit Strategy
Positions are closed when price crosses back through a 20-period moving average, indicating potential trend reversal.
Market Psychology Behind It
A Long-Leg Doji represents a battlefield between bulls and bears that ends in a stalemate. The long wicks show that both sides tried to push price in their favor but failed. This creates a coiled spring effect - when one side finally gains control, the move can be explosive as trapped traders rush to exit and momentum traders jump aboard.
Key Parameters
Doji Body Threshold (0.1%): Ensures the body is truly small relative to the candle's range
Wick Ratio (2.0): Both wicks must be at least twice the body size
ATR Filter: Uses Average True Range to ensure the pattern is significant in current market conditions
Position Size: 10% of equity per trade for balanced risk management
Pros:
High Probability Setups: Doji patterns at key levels often lead to significant moves as they represent genuine shifts in market sentiment.
Clear Rules: Objective criteria for entry and exit eliminate emotional decision-making and provide consistent execution.
Risk Management: Built-in position sizing and exit rules help protect capital during losing trades.
Market Neutral: Works equally well for long and short positions, adapting to market direction rather than fighting it.
Visual Confirmation: The strategy provides clear visual cues, making it easy to understand when patterns are forming and trades are triggered.
Cons:
False Breakouts: In choppy or ranging markets, price may break the doji levels only to quickly reverse, creating whipsaws.
Patience Required: Traders must wait for both pattern formation and breakout confirmation, which can test discipline during active market periods.
Simple Exit Logic: The moving average exit may be too simplistic, potentially cutting profits short during strong trends or holding losers too long during reversals.
Volatility Dependent: The strategy relies on sufficient volatility to create meaningful doji patterns - it may underperform in extremely quiet markets.
Lagging Entries: Waiting for breakout confirmation means missing the very beginning of moves, reducing potential profit margins.
Best Market Conditions
The strategy performs optimally during periods of moderate volatility when markets are making genuine directional decisions rather than just random noise. It works particularly well around key support/resistance levels where the market's indecision is most meaningful.
Optimization Considerations
Consider combining with additional confluence factors like volume analysis, support/resistance levels, or other technical indicators to improve signal quality. The exit strategy could also be enhanced with trailing stops or multiple profit targets to better capture extended moves while protecting gains.

Doji Signals with Wick ColorThis indicator identifies Doji candlestick patterns on the chart and highlights both the candle body and wicks in yellow for better visibility.
A Doji is defined as a candle where the body size is relatively small compared to the full range (high - low), indicating market indecision. You can adjust the maximum allowed body size as a percentage of the total candle range using the "Doji's Max Body Size" input.
The indicator works by:
Calculating the body size (abs(open - close))
Comparing it to a threshold (precision * (high - low))
Highlighting candles that meet the condition as Doji, coloring both the body and wick in yellow
This visual aid helps traders quickly spot potential reversal or pause areas in price action based on candlestick psychology.
Squeeze Pro Momentum BAR color - KLTDescription:
The Squeeze Pro Momentum indicator is a powerful tool designed to detect volatility compression ("squeeze" zones) and visualize momentum shifts using a refined color-based system. This script blends the well-known concepts of Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels with an optimized momentum engine that uses dynamic color gradients to reflect trend strength, direction, and volatility.
It’s built for traders who want early warning of potential breakouts and clearer insight into underlying market momentum.
🔍 How It Works:
📉 Squeeze Detection:
This indicator identifies "squeeze" conditions by comparing Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels:
When Bollinger Bands are inside Keltner Channels → Squeeze is ON
When Bollinger Bands expand outside Keltner Channels → Squeeze is OFF
You’ll see squeeze zones classified as:
Wide
Normal
Narrow
Each represents varying levels of compression and breakout potential.
⚡ Momentum Engine:
Momentum is calculated using linear regression of the price's deviation from a dynamic average of highs, lows, and closes. This gives a more accurate representation of directional pressure in the market.
🧠 Smart Candle Coloring (Optimized):
The momentum color logic is inspired by machine learning principles (no hardcoded thresholds):
EMA smoothing and rate of change (ROC) are used to detect momentum acceleration.
ATR-based filters help remove noise and false signals.
Colors are dynamically assigned based on both direction and trend strength.
🧪 How to Use It:
Look for Squeeze Conditions — especially narrow squeezes, which tend to precede high-momentum breakouts.
Confirm with Momentum Color — strong colors often indicate trend continuation; fading colors may signal exhaustion.
Combine with Price Action — use this tool with support/resistance or patterns for higher probability setups.
Recommended For:
Trend Traders
Breakout Traders
Volatility Strategy Users
Anyone who wants visual clarity on trend strength
📌 Tip: This indicator works great when layered with volume and price action patterns. It is fully non-repainting and supports overlay on price charts.
Disguised Candles by The School of Dalal StreetDisguised Candles corrects one of the subtle visual distortions present in normal candlestick charts — the mismatch between the close of one candle and the open of the next.
On many instruments (especially at day/session breaks), the next candle’s open often jumps due to price gaps or data feed behavior. This can make reading the flow of price action harder than necessary.
Disguised Candles fixes this by plotting synthetic candles where the open of each candle is forced to match the close of the previous one — creating a visually continuous flow of price.
Real candles are made fully transparent, so only the "corrected" candles are visible.
This allows traders to:
Visualize price flow as a smooth path
Better spot true directional shifts and trends
Avoid distractions caused by technical gaps that are not meaningful to their strategy
🚀 Pure visual clarity. No noise from false opens.
How it works:
The open of each synthetic candle = close of previous real candle
High, Low, Close remain unchanged
Colors are based on Close vs Corrected Open
Real chart candles are hidden under a transparent overlay
Use this as a clean canvas for trend analysis or as a foundation for building new visual systems.
Market Balance LevelMarket Balance Level (MBL)
This indicator dynamically identifies price consolidation zones (market balance levels) and plots a horizontal line at the average midpoint of the range once a valid breakout occurs. It helps traders visualize key zones where the market was previously in equilibrium and is likely to retest before continuing its trend.
How It Works:
Detects consolidation ranges using consecutive candles within a tight high-low structure.
When a breakout occurs (above or below the range), it plots a line at the average midpoint of the consolidation.
Triangles are drawn on breakouts to visually confirm the breakout direction.
Lines can be customized by color, width, and breakout direction (bullish, bearish, or both).
Recommended Use:
Wait for price to return to the Market Balance Level (MBL). These levels often act as strong support or resistance.
Enter upon engulfment (candle closes strongly in the direction of the breakout), confirming continuation.
Features:
Adjustable consolidation sensitivity and line length.
Option to show/hide bullish or bearish MBLs.
Visual breakout markers (triangles) with alert support.
Optional alert messages for breakout events.
Use this tool to enhance your structure-based or SMC-style trading strategies.

High/Low Entry: Enters a long position when the price crosses above the high of the previous outside bullish bar . For short, it enters when the price crosses below the low of the previous outside bearish bar .
Midpoint Entry: Places a limit order at the midpoint of the previous outside bar, entering when the price reaches this level.
EMA Trend Filter: Optionally filters signals based on the alignment of EMAs (7 > 25 > 99 > 200 for long, 7 < 25 < 99 < 200 for short). Can be toggled via the Use EMA Filter input.
Risk/Reward Management: Configurable risk/reward ratio (default 2.0) with stop-loss set at the low/high of the outside bar and take-profit calculated based on the bar's range multiplied by the ratio.
Visualization:
Lines for entry, stop-loss, and take-profit levels (dashed for active trades, solid for pending Midpoint Entry orders).
Line fills: Red between entry and stop-loss, green between entry and take-profit.
Previous lines and fills persist on the chart for historical reference (line deletion disabled).
Pending limit orders for Midpoint Entry extend dynamically to the right until triggered or canceled.
Information Table: Displays real-time trade details (entry model, RR ratio, open trade status, entry/stop/take-profit levels, profit/loss percentage) and strategy statistics (success rate, total trades). For Midpoint Entry, pending order details are shown.

SMT Time Windows# SMT Time Windows
SMT Time Windows is a Pine Script v6 indicator by **Originalsauce1** that automates ICT-style Smart Money Technique (SMT) divergences between two correlated symbols. It detects bullish and bearish SMT divergences using swing highs/lows (pivot logic) across both instruments. Bullish SMT occurs when one symbol makes a higher low while the other forms a lower low; bearish SMT is when one symbol prints a higher high while the other records a lower high. These divergences highlight imbalances in correlated markets and can signal potential momentum shifts. SMT Time Windows plots clear labels for each divergence event and offers comprehensive filtering by custom time sessions.
## Key Features
* **Time Window Filters:** Define up to three custom time windows (e.g. 2:00–4:00 AM, 6:00–8:30 AM, 9:00–10:30 AM) with individual enable/disable toggles. Active windows can be highlighted on the chart with optional background shading for visual cueing.
* **Timezone Support:** User-selectable time zone ensures that time windows align correctly across different session schedules (global session alignment).
* **Adjustable Detection:** Set the pivot **length** (sensitivity of swing detection) and the signal **timeframe**. This pivot-based approach confirms valid swing highs/lows before marking divergences.
* **Clean SMT Labels:** The indicator plots “Bullish SMT” or “Bearish SMT” labels at the relevant pivots, clearly marking each divergence event. Label color and style are customizable, providing a clean visual cue of SMT signals.
* **Chart Highlights:** Optionally shade the chart background during active time windows, making it easy to see when the session filter is in effect.
* **Session Status Table:** An on-chart table shows which time windows are currently active (e.g. shows “Open”/“Closed” status). This real-time session table provides live feedback similar to other TradingView session trackers.
* **Comparison Symbol & Alerts:** Optionally overlay the comparison symbol on your chart. Built-in alerts notify you when bullish or bearish SMT divergences occur, allowing timely review.
## How It Works
SMT Time Windows checks for divergences between two positively correlated markets (for example, equity futures like S\&P 500 (ES) vs Nasdaq 100 (NQ), or FX pairs like US Dollar Index vs EUR/USD). When one instrument’s swing high/low is not confirmed by the other, it flags this as an SMT event. For instance, a **Bearish SMT** is identified when one symbol makes a higher high but the other fails to keep pace (prints a lower high); a **Bullish SMT** is when one symbol’s low is higher while the other’s low is lower. These divergences are interpreted as signs of uneven buying/selling pressure and can precede shifts in momentum.
The indicator is designed for use with correlated markets (e.g. ES/NQ, DXY/EURUSD, etc.) to enhance your market structure analysis. It is not a “set and forget” signal but a tool to spot potential imbalances. Use SMT Time Windows alongside your discretionary analysis and higher-timeframe context for best results.

EMA 50/200 Pullback + RSI/SMA RSI
Strategy Description: EMA 50/200 Pullback + RSI/SMA RSI
1. Trend Identification with EMA:
Uses two Exponential Moving Averages (EMA): a fast EMA (default 50) and a slow EMA (default 200).
When the fast EMA crosses above the slow EMA (bullish crossover), an uptrend is identified.
When the fast EMA crosses below the slow EMA (bearish crossover), a downtrend is identified.
The lengths of both EMAs are fully customizable.
2. EMA Distance Condition:
Signals are only valid when the absolute percentage distance between the two EMAs is within a user-defined range (default: 0.4% to 1%).
This helps filter out weak signals when the EMAs are too close or too far apart.
3. Pullback Condition:
After a new trend is detected (EMA crossover), the strategy waits for the price to pull back to touch or cross the fast EMA (EMA 50).
This ensures entries are not taken immediately at the crossover, but after a retracement to a dynamic support/resistance area.
4. RSI Confirmation:
Uses the RSI indicator (default 14) and its Simple Moving Average (SMA RSI, default 14).
Buy signal: RSI crosses above its SMA.
Sell signal: RSI crosses below its SMA.
Both RSI and SMA RSI lengths are fully customizable.
5. Entry Rules:
The indicator only gives the first buy/sell signal after each EMA crossover (start of a new trend), and will not repeat signals until the next EMA crossover.
Buy signal:
Fast EMA crosses above slow EMA
EMA distance is within the valid range
Price pulls back to the fast EMA
RSI crosses above its SMA
Sell signal:
Fast EMA crosses below slow EMA
EMA distance is within the valid range
Price pulls back to the fast EMA
RSI crosses below its SMA
6. Customization:
All parameters (EMA lengths, RSI length, SMA RSI length, EMA distance range) can be adjusted in the indicator’s settings.
Note:
This is a signal indicator, not a complete trading strategy. For real trading, always combine with risk management and additional confirmations.
Third Candle MarkerTitel: Third Candle Marker – Highlights Trend Continuation
Beschreibung:
This script highlights potential trend continuation setups by marking the third candle after two consecutive candles of the same direction.
If the previous two candles were bullish (green), the third candle is colored green.
If the previous two candles were bearish (red), the third candle is colored red.
A white color indicates that no clear trend was detected in the previous two candles.
Additionally, the script plots small triangle markers:
Green upward triangle below the bar if the last two candles were bullish.
Red downward triangle above the bar if the last two candles were bearish.
Use this tool to visually identify potential continuation signals in trending markets. Suitable for all timeframes.
Note: This script does not generate buy/sell signals; it is meant to assist in visual trend recognition.
ELFIEDT RSI + Reversion📘 Script Title:
ELFIEDT RSI + Reversion
📄 Description:
This script identifies potential mean reversion opportunities by combining price volatility, momentum, and volume confirmation. It is designed to help traders detect moments where price may be temporarily overextended, increasing the likelihood of a short-term reversal or pullback.
The approach integrates three core components:
🔹 1. Volatility Envelope
The strategy uses a dynamic banding system based on a statistical measure of price deviation from its recent average. When price closes significantly outside this envelope, it signals a potential extreme movement, suggesting conditions are ripe for a reversion to the mean.
🔹 2. Momentum Confirmation via RSI
To enhance reliability, momentum is evaluated using the Relative Strength Index (RSI). Only when RSI confirms that price action is either overbought or oversold does the script consider a reversal more probable.
🔹 3. Volume Spike Filter
The script incorporates a volume confirmation layer to avoid false signals. A signal only triggers if there is an unusually high level of trading activity, helping to identify areas of market interest and possible exhaustion.
🔔 Signal Triggers & Alerts:
Upside Reversion Zone:
When price moves significantly below the volatility band, RSI shows oversold conditions, and volume confirms abnormal activity. The chart highlights this with a green label and a green-colored bar.
Downside Reversion Zone:
When price moves significantly above the volatility band, RSI shows overbought conditions, and volume confirms a spike. This is marked by a red label and a red-colored bar.
Built-in Alerts:
The script includes alert conditions that notify you when either scenario occurs. These can be used for real-time monitoring or automation.
📊 Visual Features:
Colored bars and labels show potential reversion areas.
The chart plots a trend-following baseline with dynamic upper and lower bands to visualize volatility extremes.
Up and Down zones are clearly marked for easier decision-making.

Worldwide Sessions and Open Range BreakoutThis script shows when the various normal market hours for each of the major worldwide markets (Asia, New York, and London). It also draws a line on the opening range for each of these market sessions. The opening range defaults to the first 15 minutes of the session, but this can be customized.
This script does automatically handle the session times regardless of your time zone or what time frame you are on. No need to set anything! This probably can't handle non-normal trading days, such as partial days.
This script is made for futures, but would likely work for other markets, like Forex.
