ICT Indicator with Paper TradingThe strategy implemented in the provided Pine Script is based on **ICT (Inner Circle Trader)** concepts, particularly focusing on **order blocks** to identify key levels for potential reversals or continuations in the market. Below is a detailed description of the strategy:
### 1. **Order Block Concept**
- **Order blocks** are price levels where large institutional orders accumulate, often leading to a reversal or continuation of price movement.
- In this strategy, **order blocks** are identified when:
- The high of the current bar crosses above the high of the previous bar (for bullish order blocks).
- The low of the current bar crosses below the low of the previous bar (for bearish order blocks).
### 2. **Buy and Sell Signal Generation**
The core of the strategy revolves around identifying the **breakout** of order blocks, which is interpreted as a signal to either enter or exit trades:
- **Buy Signal**:
- Generated when the closing price crosses **above** the last identified bullish order block (i.e., the highest point during the last upward crossover of highs).
- This signals a potential upward trend, and the strategy enters a long position.
- **Sell Signal**:
- Generated when the closing price crosses **below** the last identified bearish order block (i.e., the lowest point during the last downward crossover of lows).
- This signals a potential downward trend, and the strategy exits any open long positions.
### 3. **Strategy Execution**
The strategy is executed using the `strategy.entry()` and `strategy.close()` functions:
- **Enter Long Positions**: When a buy signal is generated, the strategy opens a long position (buying).
- **Exit Positions**: When a sell signal is generated, the strategy closes the long position.
### 4. **Visual Indicators on the Chart**
To make the strategy easier to follow visually, buy and sell signals are marked directly on the chart:
- **Buy signals** are indicated with a green upward-facing triangle above the bar where the signal occurred.
- **Sell signals** are indicated with a red downward-facing triangle below the bar where the signal occurred.
### 5. **Key Elements of the Strategy**
- **Trend Continuation and Reversals**: This strategy is attempting to capture trends based on the breakout of important price levels (order blocks). When the price breaks above or below a significant order block, it is expected that the market will continue in that direction.
- **Order Block Strength**: Order blocks are considered strong areas where price action could reverse or accelerate, based on how institutional investors place large orders.
### 6. **Paper Trading**
This script uses **paper trading** to simulate trades without actual money being involved. This allows users to backtest the strategy, seeing how it would have performed in historical market conditions.
### 7. **Basic Strategy Flow**
1. **Order Block Identification**: The script constantly monitors price movements to detect bullish and bearish order blocks.
2. **Buy Signal**: If the closing price crosses above the last order block high, the strategy interprets it as a sign of bullish momentum and enters a long position.
3. **Sell Signal**: If the closing price crosses below the last order block low, it signals a bearish momentum, and the strategy closes the long position.
4. **Visual Representation**: Buy and sell signals are displayed on the chart for easy identification.
### **Advantages of the Strategy:**
- **Simple and Clear Rules**: The strategy is based on clearly defined rules for identifying order blocks and trade signals.
- **Effective for Trend Following**: By focusing on breakouts of order blocks, this strategy attempts to capture strong trends in the market.
- **Visual Aids**: The plot of buy/sell signals helps traders to quickly see where trades would have been placed.
### **Limitations:**
- **No Shorting**: This strategy only enters long positions (buying). It does not account for shorting opportunities.
- **No Risk Management**: There are no built-in stop losses, trailing stops, or profit targets, which could expose the strategy to large losses during adverse market conditions.
- **Whipsaws in Range Markets**: The strategy could produce false signals in sideways or choppy markets, where breakouts are short-lived and prices quickly reverse.
### **Overall Strategy Objective:**
The goal of the strategy is to enter into long positions when the price breaks above a significant order block, and exit when it breaks below. The strategy is designed for trend-following, with the assumption that price will continue in the direction of the breakout.

Chart patterns
Adjusted Average VolatilityThis Pine Script calculates the average volatility over the past 20 bars by taking the difference between the high and low prices. It then adjusts this volatility based on the previous closing price: if the price is below $20, the volatility is multiplied by 2, and if it’s above $20, the volatility is multiplied by 1.5. The adjusted volatility is then plotted on the chart, helping traders visualize how volatility changes relative to the asset's price level.
Time and Price Lines and Zones (fadi)
Draw a red line starting from the open at 9:30
Show dotted lines between 11 and 12 and shade it
Mark the ORB high and low from 9:30 to 10:00 and extend it in orange and shade it
In trading, time and price are two crucial elements that help traders make decisions about buying and selling assets like stocks, commodities, or currencies. Forex or futures traders may prefer to trade during the Asia, London, and New York sessions to increase the probability of price moves. Additionally, traders often focus on key levels on the chart to frame their trades.
The Time and Price Lines and Zones indicator allows traders to set an unlimited number of time- and price-based levels on a chart, with full control over how they are displayed. Traders can simply type in their desired settings, and the indicator will interpret the instructions and plot the levels on the chart.
However, as it is a scripted tool, there are some limitations, and traders should keep their inputs relatively straightforward.
How It Works
In the settings, you type in the time and price levels you'd like to see, along with the timeframes for display. Each new line will render a line, a set of lines, or a price zone within a specific time interval. You can specify starting and ending times, price levels such as highs and lows, and details like color, line style, and thickness.
The following are some settings you can use:
Time
Always required, formatted as 0 to 23 for hours (with 0 representing midnight) and 0 to 59 for minutes. You can specify just a start time or both start and end times to "box" a period.
Examples:
1 ( for 1:00 AM)
13 (for 1:00 PM)
13:50 (for 1:50 PM)
Price
Optional. If no price level is provided, the indicator will treat it as an open time window and draw vertical lines at the specified time intervals.
Color
The indicator recognizes the 17 built-in colors from TradingView ( www.tradingview.com ). You also have the option to override or create your own colors to match your color schema under settings. Silver (light gray) is the default if none is specified.
Line Style
There are three available line styles:
Solid (default)
Dashed
Dotted
Line Thickness
Line thickness can also be controlled with the following options:
Thin (default)
Medium
Thick
Fill or No Fill
When specifying two price levels, or two time periods, you can choose to keep the area between them empty or fill it with a semitransparent color. You can set this by specifying "shade," "shaded," "fill," or "filled."
Extend or Not
There are times, such as with the Open Range Breakout (ORB), where you may want to extend the zone without tracking additional price level changes. You can indicate this by specifying whether you want to extend it or not.
Additional Indicator Settings
Ignore lines that start with a defined character to instruct the indicator to ignore the line. For example, if you want to hide a line without deleting it, add # in front of it (default is #).
Hide Above Will hide all lines and zones above a defined timeframe.
Show Next Area Hours in Advance This will plot lines in advance to the right of the current price action, helping traders recognize upcoming points of interest.
Show Last X Days This controls the clutter on the screen by limiting the display to the most recent X number of days.
Fill Transparency The percentage of transparency applied to the background when a fill is specified.
Examples:
12 to 13 gray area shaded with dotted lines
Will result in two vertical lines, one at 12 noon and one at 1 PM, with the area between them shaded gray and a dotted line style.
0:00 vertical line red solid
Adds one vertical red line at midnight.
By specifying the open, high, low, and/or close price components, the indicator will interpret this as an instruction to draw a horizontal line at the specified price level. If two or more price levels are provided, each will be tracked accordingly.
Draw a red line starting from 0 open
Draws a line starting from midnight open until the end of the trading day.
Track high and low starting from 9:30 in a dashed green medium line
Tracks the day’s high and low, adjusting as new highs and lows are drawn in a dashed thicker green line from 9:30 AM until the end of trading hours.
# Asia
20 to 0 green high to low filled
# London
2:00 to 5 blue low and high filled
#New York
8:30 to 11:30 orange zone shaded orange between the high and low dotted
Adds three ICT Kill Zones for Asia, London, and New York based on their respective high and low.
8:30 to 11:30 orange zone shaded orange open close dotted
Will add a second New York zone overlapping the high and low zone.
#Draw Open Range Breakout (ORB)
9:30 to 10:00 purple extended zone
Extends the zone from 9:30 to 10:00 AM with a purple extended zone.

Magic Order Blocks [MW]Add a slim design, minimalist view of the most relevant higher and lower order blocks to your chart. Use our novel method of filtering that uses both the the number of consecutive bullish or bearish candles that follow the order block, and the number of ATRs that the asset’s price changed following the order block. View just the order blocks above and below the current price, or view the backgrounds for each and every one. And, if you're up to it, dig into a comprehensive view of the data for each order block candle.

Calculations
This indicator creates a matrix of each order block that is followed by the user-specified number of consecutive bullish or bearish candles. The data can be further filtered by the number of ATRs that the price moves after the order block - also user-defined. The most recent bearish order block above the current price takes arrays from the initial filtered matrix of arrays, filters once more by the “mid-price” of the order block (the average between the order block candle high and low) and selects the last element from this order block matrix. The same follows for the latest bearish order block above the current price.
How to Use
An order block refers to a price range or zone on a chart where large institutional orders have been placed, causing a significant shift in market direction. These zones are crucial because they often indicate areas of strong buying or selling interest, which can lead to future support or resistance levels. Traders use order blocks to identify potential points of market reversal or continuation.
The Magic Order Blocks default view shows the most recent overhead bearish order block above the current price, and the most recent bullish order block below. These can presumably act as support or resistance levels, because they reflect the last price where a significant price move occurred. “Significant” meaning that the order block candle was followed by many consecutive bullish or bearish candles. Based on the user-defined settings, it can also mean that price moved multiples of the asset's average true range (ATR). More consecutive candles means that the duration of the move lasted a long time. A higher ATR move indicates that the price moved impulsively in one direction.
The default view also shows a label to the right of the current price that provides the price level, the time stamp of the order block (optional), and a sequence of bars that show the significance of the level. By default, these bars represent the number of ATRs that price rose or fell following the order block, but they can be toggled to show the number of consecutive bullish or bearish candles that followed the order block.
Although the default view provides the zones that are most relevant to the current price, past order block candles can also be identified visually with labels as well with translucent backgrounds color-coded for bullish or bearish bias. Overlapping backgrounds can identify an area that has been repeatedly been an area of support or resistance.
A detailed view of each order block can also be viewed the includes the following data points:
Bar Index
Timestamp
Consecutive Accumulated Volume
Consecutive Bars
Price Change over Consecutive Bars
Price/Volume Ratio Over Consecutive Bars
Mid Price of Order Block
High Price of Order Block
Low Price of Order Block
ATRs over Consecutive Bars
- Other Usage Notes and Limitations:
The calculations used only provide an estimated relationship or a close approximation, and are not exact.
It's important for traders to be aware of the limitations of any indicator and to use them as part of a broader, well-rounded trading strategy that includes risk management, fundamental analysis, and other tools that can help with reducing false signals, determining trend direction, and providing additional confirmation for a trade decision. Diversifying strategies and not relying solely on one type of indicator or analysis can help mitigate some of these risks.
Things to keep in mind. Longer timeframes don’t necessarily have a as many consecutive candle drops or gains as with shorter timeframes, so be sure to adjust your settings when moving to 1 hour, 1 day, or 1 week timeframes from 1 minute, 5 minute, or 15 minute timeframes.
Vasyl Ivanov | Order BlocksOrder Blocks Indicator for Long-Term Traders and Scalpers
This indicator is designed to identify order blocks (OBs) across multiple timeframes, offering flexible and adaptable detection mechanisms for both strong and weaker price movements.
Key Features:
Flexible OB Detection:
Detects order blocks with 3 candles during strong movements.
Detects order blocks with 4 candles during weaker movements.
Identifies the highest or lowest extremum between the 1st and 2nd candles to define the starting point of the OB, ensuring accuracy in ranging and trending markets.
In cases where the 2nd candle's extremum is the highest/lowest, the OB size adjusts accordingly.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
This indicator enables seamless multi-timeframe order block analysis, removing the need to manually switch between timeframes.
Timeframe mapping:
For intraday and lower timeframes:
< 5 min maps to 30 min
<= 15 min maps to 1 hour
<= 1 hour maps to 4 hours
All other intraday maps to 1 day
Daily charts and higher map to 1 week
This automatic adjustment lets you view both current and parent timeframe order blocks without hassle.
Customizable Backtest Analysis:
The indicator includes a "Show/Hide Overlapped Order Blocks" feature, allowing you to hide order blocks that have already been overlapped. This feature aids in backtesting and historical analysis by offering a cleaner view of how past price action interacted with detected blocks.
Color Differentiation by Timeframe:
Customize different colors for local and parent timeframes to easily differentiate order blocks from various timeframes at a glance.
Candle Wicks Customization:
The 'Use Candle Wicks' option allows you to include or exclude candle wicks in OB detection, giving you flexibility in how the blocks are drawn based on your trading style.
How It Works:
This indicator detects key price zones based on order block patterns, which are often followed by significant price moves. By analyzing these blocks across multiple timeframes, it helps traders identify potential reversal areas and support/resistance zones more effectively.
Use Cases:
Scalping: Scalpers can benefit from the rapid detection of short-term OBs to make quick decisions based on high-probability setups.
Long-Term Trading: Longer-term traders can use the multi-timeframe feature to spot higher timeframe OBs while trading lower timeframes, allowing for better alignment with major market movements.
Why It’s Unique:
Unlike other OB indicators, this one combines multi-timeframe detection with customizable OB sizing, extremum detection, and color-coding for clear differentiation between timeframes. Its backtest feature enhances historical analysis, providing a comprehensive toolkit for traders aiming to improve decision-making.
Reflected ema Difference (RED) This script, titled "Reflected EMA Difference (RED)," is based on the logic of evaluating the percentage of convergence and divergence between two moving averages, specifically the Hull Moving Averages (HMA), to make price-related decisions. The Hull Moving Average, created by Alan Hull, is used as the foundation of this strategy, offering a faster and more accurate way to analyze market trends. In this script, the concept is employed to measure and reflect price variations.
Script Functionality Overview:
Hull Moving Averages (HMA): The script utilizes two HMAs, one short-term and one long-term. The main idea is to compute the Delta Difference between these two moving averages, which represents how much they are converging or diverging from each other. This difference is key to identifying potential market trend changes.
Reflected HMA Value: Using the Delta Difference between the HMAs, the value of the short-term HMA is reflected, creating a visual reference point that helps traders see the relationship between price and HMAs on the chart.
Percentage Change Index: The second key parameter is the percentage change index. This determines when a trend is reversing, allowing buy or sell orders to be established based on significant changes in the relationship between the HMAs and the price.
Delta Multiplier: The script comes with a default Delta multiplier of 2 for calculating the difference between HMAs, allowing traders to adjust the sensitivity of the analysis based on the time frame being analyzed.
Trend Reversal Signals: When the price crosses the thresholds defined by the percentage change index, buy or sell signals are triggered, based on the detection of a potential trend reversal.
Visual Cues with Boxes: Boxes are drawn on the chart when the HullMA crosses the reflected HMA value, providing a visual aid to identify critical moments where risk should be evaluated.
Alerts for Receiving Signals:
This script allows you to set up buy and sell alerts via TradingView's alert system. These alerts are triggered when trend changes are detected based on the conditions coded in the script. Traders can receive instant notifications, allowing them to make decisions without needing to constantly monitor the chart.
Additional Considerations:
The percentage change parameter is adjustable and should be configured based on the time frame you are trading on. For longer time frames, it's advisable to use a larger percentage change to avoid false signals.
The use of Hull Moving Averages (HMA) provides a faster and more reactive approach to trend evaluation compared to other moving averages, making it a powerful tool for traders seeking quick reversal signals.
This approach combines the power of Hull Moving Averages with an alert system to improve the trader’s response to trend changes.
Spanish
Este script, titulado "Reflected EMA Difference (RED)", está fundamentado en la lógica de evaluar el porcentaje de acercamiento y distancia entre dos medias móviles, específicamente las medias móviles de Hull (HMA), para tomar decisiones sobre el valor del precio. El creador de la media móvil de Hull, Alan Hull, diseñó este indicador para ofrecer una forma más rápida y precisa de analizar tendencias de mercado, y en este script se utiliza su concepto como base para medir y reflejar las variaciones de precio.
Descripción del funcionamiento:
Medias Móviles de Hull (HMA): Se utilizan dos HMAs, una de corto plazo y otra de largo plazo. La idea principal es calcular la diferencia Delta entre estas dos medias móviles, que representa cuánto se están alejando o acercando entre sí. Esta diferencia es clave para identificar cambios potenciales en la tendencia del mercado.
Valor Reflejado de la HMA: Con la diferencia Delta calculada entre las HMAs, se refleja el valor de la HMA corta, creando un punto de referencia visual que ayuda a los traders a observar la relación entre el precio y las HMAs en el gráfico.
Índice de Cambio de Porcentaje: El segundo parámetro clave del script es el índice de cambio porcentual. Este define el momento en que una tendencia está revirtiendo, permitiendo establecer órdenes de compra o venta en función de un cambio significativo en la relación entre las HMAs y el precio.
Multiplicador Delta: El script tiene un multiplicador predeterminado de 2 para el cálculo de la diferencia Delta, lo que permite ajustar la sensibilidad del análisis según la temporalidad del gráfico.
Señales de Reversión de Tendencia: Cuando el precio cruza los límites definidos por el índice de cambio porcentual, se emiten señales para comprar o vender, basadas en la detección de una posible reversión de tendencia.
Visualización con Cajas: Se dibujan cajas en el gráfico cuando el indicador HullMA cruza el valor reflejado de la HMA, ayudando a identificar visualmente los momentos críticos en los que se debe evaluar el riesgo de las operaciones.
Alertas para Recibir Señales:
Este script permite configurar alertas de compra y venta desde el apartado de alertas de TradingView. Estas alertas se activan cuando se detectan cambios de tendencia en función de las condiciones establecidas en el código. El trader puede recibir notificaciones instantáneas, lo que facilita la toma de decisiones sin necesidad de estar constantemente observando el gráfico.
Consideraciones adicionales:
El porcentaje de cambio es un parámetro ajustable y debe configurarse según la temporalidad que se esté operando. En temporalidades más largas, es recomendable usar un porcentaje de cambio mayor para evitar señales falsas.
La utilización de las medias móviles de Hull (HMA) proporciona un enfoque más rápido y reactivo para evaluar tendencias en comparación con otras medias móviles, lo que lo convierte en una herramienta poderosa para traders que buscan señales rápidas de reversión.
Este enfoque combina la potencia de las medias móviles de Hull con un sistema de alertas que mejora la reactividad a cambios de tendencia.

This script is perfect for traders who rely on moving average strategies and want additional filtering to confirm trends and optimize trade timing.
Descriptive Backtesting Framework (DBF)As the name suggests, this is a backtesting framework made to offer full backtesting functionality to any custom indicator in a visually descriptive way.
Any trade taken will be very clear to visualize on the chart and the equity line will be updated live allowing us to use the REPLAY feature to view the strategy performing in real time.
Stops and Targets will also get draw on the chart with labels and tooltips and there will be a table on the top right corner displaying lots of descriptive metrics to measure your strategy's performance.
IF YOU DECIDE TO USE THIS FRAMEWORK, PLEASE READ **EVERYTHING** BELOW
HOW TO USE IT
Step 1 - Insert Your Strategy Indicators:
Inside this framework's code, right at the beginning, you will find a dedicated section where you can manually insert any set of indicators you desire.
Just replace the example code in there with your own strategy indicators.
Step 2 - Specify The Conditions To Take Trades:
After that, there will be another section where you need to specify your strategy's conditions to enter and exit trades.
When met, those conditions will fire the trading signals to the trading engine inside the framework.
If you don't wish to use some of the available signals, please just assign false to the signal.
DO NOT DELETE THE SIGNAL VARIABLES
Step 3 - Specify Entry/Exit Prices, Stops & Targets:
Finally you'll reach the last section where you'll be able to specify entry/exit prices as well as add stops and targets.
On most cases, it's easier and more reliable to just use the close price to enter and exit trades.
If you decide to use the open price instead, please remember to change step 2 so that trades are taken on the open price of the next candle and not the present one to avoid the look ahead bias.
Stops and targets can be set in any way you want.
Also, please don't forget to update the spread. If your broker uses commissions instead of spreads or a combination of both, you'll need to manually incorporate those costs in this step.
And that's it! That's all you have to do.
Below this section you'll now see a sign warning you about not making any changes to the code below.
From here on, the framework will take care of executing the trades and calculating the performance metrics for you and making sure all calculations are consistent.
VISUAL FEATURES:
Price candles get painted according to the current trade.
They will be blue during long trades, purple on shorts and white when no trade is on.
When the framework receives the signals to start or close a trade, it will display those signals as shapes on the upper and lower limits of the chart:
DIAMOND: represents a signal to open a trade, the trade direction is represented by the shape's color;
CROSS: means a stop loss was triggered;
FLAG: means a take profit was triggered;
CIRCLE: means an exit trade signal was fired;
Hovering the mouse over the trade labels will reveal:
Asset Quantity;
Entry/Exit Prices;
Stops & Targets;
Trade Profit;
Profit As Percentage Of Trade Volume;
**Please note that there's a limit as to how many labels can be drawn on the chart at once.**
If you which to see labels from the beginning of the chart, you'll probably need to use the replay feature.
PERFORMANCE TABLE:
The performance table displays several performance metrics to evaluate the strategy.
All the performance metrics here are calculated by the framework. It does not uses the oficial pine script strategy tester.
All metrics are calculated in real time. If using the replay feature, they will be updated up to the last played bar.
Here are the available metrics and their definition:
INITIAL EQUITY: the initial amount of money we had when the strategy started, obviously...;
CURRENT EQUITY: the amount of money we have now. If using the replay feature, it will show the current equity up to the last bar played. The number on it's right side shows how many times our equity has been multiplied from it's initial value;
TRADE COUNT: how many trades were taken;
WIN COUNT: how many of those trades were wins. The percentage at the right side is the strategy WIN RATE;
AVG GAIN PER TRADE: the average percentage gain per trade. Very small values can indicate a fragile strategy that can behave in unexpected ways under high volatility conditions;
AVG GAIN PER WIN: the average percentage gain of trades that were profitable;
AVG GAIN PER LOSS: the average percentage loss on trades that were not profitable;
EQUITY MAX DD: the maximum drawdown experienced by our equity during the entire strategy backtest;
TRADE MAX DD: the maximum drawdown experienced by our equity after one single trade;
AVG MONTHLY RETURN: the compound monthly return that our strategy was able to create during the backtested period;
AVG ANNUAL RETURN: this is the strategy's CAGR (compound annual growth rate);
ELAPSED MONTHS: number of months since the backtest started;
RISK/REWARD RATIO: shows how profitable the strategy is for the amount of risk it takes. Values above 1 are very good (and rare). This is calculated as follows: (Avg Annual Return) / mod(Equity Max DD). Where mod() is the same as math.abs();
AVAILABLE SETTINGS:
SPREAD: specify your broker's asset spread
ENABLE LONGS / SHORTS: you can keep both enable or chose to take trades in only one direction
MINIMUM BARS CLOSED: to avoid trading before indicators such as a slow moving average have had time to populate, you can manually set the number of bars to wait before allowing trades.
INITIAL EQUITY: you can specify your starting equity
EXPOSURE: is the percentage of equity you wish to risk per trade. When using stops, the strategy will automatically calculate your position size to match the exposure with the stop distance. If you are not using stops then your trade volume will be the percentage of equity specified here. 100 means you'll enter trades with all your equity and 200 means you'll use a 2x leverage.
MAX LEVERAGE ALLOWED: In some situations a short stop distance can create huge levels of leverage. If you want to limit leverage to a maximum value you can set it here.
SEVERAL PLOTTING OPTIONS: You'll be able to specify which of the framework visuals you wish to see drawn on the chart.
FRAMEWORK **LIMITATIONS**:
When stop and target are both triggered in the same candle, this framework isn't able to enter faster timeframes to check which one was triggered first, so it will take the pessimistic assumption and annul the take profit signal;
This framework doesn't support pyramiding;
This framework doesn't support both long and short positions to be active at the same time. So for example, if a short signal is received while a long trade is open, the framework will close the long trade and then open a short trade;
FINAL CONSIDERATIONS:
I've been using this framework for a good time and I find it's better to use and easier to analyze a strategy's performance then relying on the oficial pine script strategy tester. However, I CANNOT GUARANTEE IT TO BE BUG FREE.
**PLEASE PERFORM A MANUAL BACKTEST BEFORE USING ANY STRATEGY WITH REAL MONEY**
Charan_Trading_IndicatorCharan_Trading_Indicator Overview:
The Charan_Trading_Indicator combines several technical analysis tools, including Bollinger Bands, RSI (Relative Strength Index), VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price), and ATR (Average True Range), to provide buy and sell signals. The script incorporates multiple strategies, such as crack snap setups, overbought/oversold levels, and trend continuation indicators, all tailored for precise market entry and exit points.
Key Components:
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
The indicator uses RSI to detect overbought (RSI > 70) and oversold (RSI < 30) market conditions.
Alerts are triggered when prices are within the specified buy/sell range and RSI crosses these thresholds.
Bollinger Bands:
Bollinger Bands are calculated based on a configurable moving average and standard deviation.
The script identifies potential buy signals when the price dips below the lower Bollinger Band and recovers, and sell signals when the price exceeds the upper Bollinger Band and retraces.
Crack Snap Strategies:
The indicator incorporates multiple variations of the crack snap strategy:
Buy Signals: Triggered when price opens below the lower Bollinger Band and closes above it, alongside certain conditions in previous candles.
Sell Signals: Triggered when price opens above the upper Bollinger Band and closes below it, with similar candle patterns.
Variations such as 3-candle (3C) and 4-candle (4C) versions refine the crack snap setups for more robust signals.
Isolated Candle Conditions:
The indicator tracks isolated candles, where the entire candle lies above or below the Bollinger Bands, to identify potential reversal points.
Trend Continuation Signals:
Conditions based on the candle range and previous highs/lows allow the indicator to generate signals for trend continuation:
Buy signals when price breaks above the previous two highs.
Sell signals when price breaks below the previous two lows.
VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price):
The indicator integrates VWAP to give additional support and resistance levels, ensuring signals align with volume trends.
ATR-Based Stop Loss:
For both buy and sell conditions, the script plots stop-loss levels based on the ATR (Average True Range), giving dynamic risk management levels.
Buy/Sell Ranges:
The user can set minimum and maximum price ranges for buy and sell signals, ensuring that the indicator only generates alerts within desired price ranges.
How It Works:
Buy Signals: The script generates buy signals based on multiple conditions, including the crack snap strategy, oversold RSI levels, and trend continuation setups. When these conditions are met, green triangles appear below the price bars, and an alert is triggered.
Sell Signals: Sell signals are triggered when the opposite conditions are met (overbought RSI, crack snap sell setups, trend breaks), and red triangles appear above the price bars.
Visual Indicators: The script plots upper and lower Bollinger Bands, stop loss levels, and VWAP on the chart, providing a comprehensive view of market conditions and support/resistance levels.
This indicator is versatile, combining multiple technical tools for robust decision-making in trading. It generates alerts, plots visual markers, and integrates risk management, making it a well-rounded tool for technical analysis.

Yesterday's Levels with 50% wick and Equilibrium## Script Description
This Pine Script indicator highlights key levels from the previous day’s daily candle on any timeframe chart. It focuses exclusively on marking the following:
1. **Previous Day’s High, Low, Open, and Close**:
- Horizontal lines are drawn to indicate the previous day's high, low, open, and close prices.
- These lines are white and extend across the chart.
2. **50% of Candle Wicks**:
- If the previous day’s candle has wicks, two additional lines mark 50% of the top wick and 50% of the bottom wick.
- These lines are green and dotted, representing half the wick’s height.
3. **Equilibrium (50% of the Full Candle)**:
- A horizontal red line marks the midpoint (equilibrium) of the entire previous day’s candle, from high to low.
- This line is thicker than the others to emphasize the equilibrium level.
The script works by focusing only on the previous day’s daily candle, ensuring that it doesn’t plot lines for any older candles. These levels are visible on all timeframes.
ICT HTF FVGs v2 (fadi)NOTICE: Instead of updating the existing ICT HTF FVGs indicator, this indicator is being published separately due to the requests to keep the original by some traders and because of the drastic change in behavior/configurations. If the original v1 version is more appropriate for your style of trading, feel free to continue to use it.
ICT HTF FVGs v2
In trading, Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) refer to market inefficiencies or imbalances that occur when buying and selling activities are not equal. These gaps can be identified on various timeframes and are used in different trading strategies.
FVGs are crucial in price action trading as they highlight the difference between the current market price of an asset and its fair value. Traders use these gaps to identify potential trading opportunities, as they often indicate areas where the market may correct itself
This indicator will overlap the higher timeframe (HTF) FVGS over the current timeframe to help traders anticipate and plan their trades.
Features
Up to 6 higher timeframes (HTF) can be overlayed on a chart
Traders can limit the number of HTF FVGs to preset number of HTFs
Lower and current timeframes can be included
Configurable spacing of HTF FVGs to prevent overlapping
Configurable Smart Expansion of FVGs based on proximity to current price
Traders can decide what constitutes a Mitigated FVG
Show or hide mitigated FVGs to declutter the chart
Flexible display settings that controls how the FVGs are displayed
Flexible labeling of the FVG levels and content
Higher Timeframes Display Settings
This indicator provides the ability to select up to 6 HTF intervals. These intervals are based on the trader's timeframes including any custom timeframes.
Timeframe Configurations
Enable or Disable a Timeframe
The Timeframe to Display
Bullish / BISI FVG Color
Bearish / SIBI FVG Color
The number of FVGs For The Selected Timeframe
Limit to the next HTFs only can be used to display the selected number of HTF FVGs. For example, if the trader selects 3 then only 3 HTF FVGs will be displayed.
Note: If either of the next two options is selected, they will take up spots from this count.
Hide lower Timeframes restricts the FVGs to higher timeframes only. If this option is disabled, it will show lower timeframes FVGs as well.
Hide Current Timeframe removes current timeframe from the selected list of HTF FVGs. If this option is disabled, it will show current timeframe FVGs as well.
Background Transparency Enable or disable the background color (shaded area) of the FVG. If it is enabled, it will set the transparency amount. The higher the value, the more transparent the background.
Extend lines controls when and how to extend the FVG levels. There are three options:
Extension Only extends the FVGs by the specified number provided below only.
Current Candle Plus Extension extends all the FVGs beyond the current candle by the number provided below.
When in Range will only extend the FVGs near current price based on the advanced settings below. This setting will use Average True Range multiplier to calculate the range (shows FVGs that are higher or lower by the average candle size multiplied by the number in Advanced section).
Mitigated shows or hides the mitigated HTF FVGs. A FVG is considered mitigated based on one of the following options:
None will ignore mitigation and show all FVGs.
Touched when a HTF FVG is touched regardless of how deep the price get inside the FVG.
Wick filled the FVG is closed by a wick or body of a candle.
Body filled the FVG is closed by the body of a candle
Wick filled half a candle's wick or body has reached the C.E. of the FVG
Body filled half a candle body has reached the C.E. of the FVG
Extend mitigated lines sets the number of candles to extend the mitigated FVG levels by for better visibility.
Important Note: Mitigation is calculated based on the timeframe of the FVG, not current timeframe.
Display
Display settings focus on how the FVGs will be displayed. The trader is in total control and there are multiple ways to overlay FVGs on the chart.
Open / Close / C.E. / Link controls the borders. Traders can enable or disable any of them as well as set the thickness and style. Link is the right border.
C.E. also offers the option of setting the bullish (BISI) and bearish (SIBI) colors of the C.E. level
Labeling controls if the labels should be displayed next to the FVG, their color, background, and font size.
Label levels to display controls which levels to show. Open, High. or the C.E.
Label display content controls what to show in the labels, the timeframe of the label, is it a BISI or a SIBI, and a label to indicate if it is the Open or the Close.
Note: if the distance between the open and close has the potential of overlapping the labels, then the indicator will only show the C.E. label for visual clarity.
Advanced Settings
Advanced settings controls some internal calculations:
Proximity factor based on daily range used to calculate possible range of FVGs within a day's range to keep the chart clean. The higher the value, the more FVGs will be shown.
Combine labels factor for visibility used to calculate the distance between the open and close and if all the labels or only the C.E. should be displayed. The higher the value, the bigger the distance for combination (smaller numbers will show more labels).
Range should be within X candles used when "When in Range" option is selected. This is the ATR multiplier used to extend the FVGs. The higher the number, the more FVGs will be extended.
Once desired settings have been achieved, the settings can be saved as default from the bottom left of the indicator settings page for future use.
Hull MA with Alerts and LabelsThis script is designed to help traders visually track market trends using various types of moving averages (MAs) and to receive alerts when certain conditions are met. Here’s a detailed breakdown of how the script works:
1. User Inputs and Customization:
MA Length: Traders can define the length of the moving average (default is 100).
Confirmation Candles: The trader can specify how many candles must confirm a trend before the script triggers a signal (default is 1).
MA Variation: The trader can choose between different moving average types: Simple Moving Average (SMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), Weighted Moving Average (WMA), or Hull Moving Average (HMA).
Source: Traders select the price source for the moving average calculation (e.g., close price).
Ribbon Transparency: Allows control over the transparency level of the ribbon plotted between the moving averages.
Bullish/Bearish Ribbon Colors: The user can choose the colors for bullish and bearish trends.
2. Moving Average Calculations:
The script provides multiple options for calculating moving averages:
SMA (Simple Moving Average)
EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
WMA (Weighted Moving Average)
HMA (Hull Moving Average)
For the Hull Moving Average (HMA), it uses a specific formula that smoothens the movement and reduces lag, which is helpful for more reactive trend detection.
3. Plotting Moving Averages and Trend Ribbon:
The script calculates two key moving averages:
MHULL: The main moving average, selected based on the user’s chosen MA variation and source.
SHULL: A shifted version of the MHULL to help compare trends (shifted by 2 bars).
These two moving averages are plotted on the chart for visualization. MHULL is plotted in green (or another color if changed), while SHULL is plotted in red. A ribbon is drawn between MHULL and SHULL to indicate trends visually. The ribbon changes color depending on whether the trend is bullish (MHULL > SHULL) or bearish (MHULL < SHULL). The ribbon’s transparency can be adjusted for visual clarity.
4. Trend Detection:
Bullish Trend: The script checks if the price has closed above MHULL for the defined number of confirmation candles. If confirmed, a bullish trend is detected.
Bearish Trend: Similarly, the script checks if the price has closed below SHULL for the confirmation period, indicating a bearish trend.
The script tracks whether the market is in a bullish or bearish trend and prevents repeated signals by remembering the current trend state.
5. Alerts and Labels:
Bullish Alerts and Labels: When a confirmed bullish trend is detected (i.e., price closes above MHULL for the entire confirmation period and MHULL > SHULL), the script triggers an alert notifying the trader of the bullish condition. A "BULLISH" label is placed on the chart near the low of the candle where the trend was confirmed.
Bearish Alerts and Labels: If a confirmed bearish trend is detected (i.e., price closes below SHULL for the confirmation period and MHULL < SHULL), the script triggers an alert for the bearish condition. A "BEARISH" label is placed on the chart near the high of the candle where the trend was confirmed.
These alerts and labels help traders act quickly on trend changes and align their trading strategy with market conditions.
6. Practical Use for Traders:
For traders, this script offers:
Customizability : It allows traders to define the length and type of moving averages, choose price sources, and control how signals are confirmed.
Visual Trend Representation : The plotted MA lines and colored ribbons help traders easily see market direction.
Early Warnings : With alerts and labels, the script gives traders early signals when trends are shifting, allowing them to adjust positions accordingly.
Trend Confirmation : The script waits for a user-defined number of confirmation candles before signaling a new trend, reducing false signals.
Overall, the script helps traders automate their strategy by tracking moving averages and alerting them when key trend conditions are met.

Liquidity strategy tester [Influxum]This tool is based on the concept of liquidity. It includes 10 methods for identifying liquidity in the market. Although this tool is presented as a strategy, we see it more as a data-gathering instrument.
Warning: This indicator/strategy is not intended to generate profitable strategies. It is designed to identify potential market advantages and help with identifying effective entry points to capitalize on those advantages.
Once again, we have advanced the methods of effectively searching for liquidity in the market. With strategies, defined by various entry methods and risk management, you can find your edge in the market. This tool is backed by thorough testing and development, and we plan to continue improving it.
In its current form, it can also be used to test well-known ICT or Smart Money concepts. Using various methods, you can define market structure and identify areas where liquidity is located.
Fair Value Gaps - one of the entry signal options is fair value gaps, where an imbalance between buyers and sellers in the market can be expected.
Time and Price Theory - you can test this by setting liquidity from a specific session and testing entries as that liquidity is grabbed
Judas Swing - can be tested as a market reversal after a breakout during the first hours of trading.
Power of Three - accumulation can be observed as the market moving within a certain range, identified as cluster liquidity in our tool, manipulation occurs with the break of liquidity, and distribution is the direction of the entry.
🟪 Methods of Identifying Liquidity
Pivot Liquidity
This refers to liquidity formed by local extremes – the highest or lowest prices reached in the market over a certain period. The period is defined by a pivot number and determines how many candles before and after the high/low were higher/lower. Simply put, the pivot number represents the number of adjacent candles to the left and right, with a lower high for a pivot high and a higher low for a pivot low. The higher the number, the more significant the high/low is. Behind these local market extremes, we expect to find orders waiting for breakout as well as stop-losses.
Gann Swing
Similar to pivot liquidity, Gann swing identifies significant market points. However, instead of candle highs and lows, it focuses on the closing prices. A Gann swing is formed when a candle closes above (or below) several previous closes (the number is again defined by a strength parameter).
Percentage Change
Apart from ticks, percentages are also a key unit of market movement. In the search for liquidity, we monitor when a local high or low is formed. For liquidity defined by percentage change, a high must be a certain percentage higher than the last low to confirm a significant high. Similarly, a low must be a defined percentage away from the last significant high to confirm a new low. With the right percentage settings, you can eliminate market noise.
Session Range (3x)
Session range is a popular concept for finding liquidity, especially in smart money concepts (SMC). You can set up liquidity visualization for the Asian, London, or New York sessions – or even all three at once. This tool allows you to work with up to three sessions, so you can easily track how and if the market reacts to liquidity grabs during these sessions.
Tip for traders: If you want to see the reaction to liquidity grab during a specific session at a certain time (e.g., the well-known killzone), you can set the Trading session in this tool to the exact time where you want to look for potential entries.
Unfinished Auction
Based on order flow theory, an unfinished auction occurs when the market reverses sharply without filling all pending orders. In price action terms, this can be seen as two candles at a local high or low with very similar or identical highs/lows. The maximum difference between these values is defined as Tolerance, with the default setting being 3 ticks. This setting is particularly useful for filtering out noise during slower market periods, like the Asian session.
Double Tops and Bottoms
A very popular concept not only from smart money concepts but also among price pattern traders is the double bottom and double top. This occurs when the market stops and reverses at a certain price twice in a row. In the tool, you can set how many candles apart these bottoms/tops can be by adjusting the Length parameter. According to some theories, double bottoms are more effective when there is a significant peak between the two bottoms. You can set this in the tool as the Swing value, which defines how large the movement (expressed in ticks) must be between the two peaks/bottoms. The final parameter you can adjust is Tolerance, which defines the possible price difference between the two peaks/bottoms, also expressed in ticks.
Range or Cluster Liquidity
When the market stays within a certain price range, there’s a chance that breakout orders and stop-losses are accumulating outside of this range. Our tool defines ranges in two ways:
Candle balance calculates the average price within a candle (open, high, low, and close), and it defines consolidation when the centers of candles are within a certain distance from each other.
Overlap confirms consolidation when a candle overlaps with the previous one by a set percentage.
Daily, Weekly, and Monthly Highs or Lows
These options simply define liquidity as the previous day’s, week’s, or month’s highs or lows.
Visual Settings
You can easily adjust how liquidity is displayed on the chart, choosing line style, color, and thickness. To display only uncollected liquidity, select "Delete grabbed liquidity."
Liquidity Duration
This setting allows you to control how long liquidity areas remain valid. You can cancel liquidity at the end of the day, the second day, or after a specific number of candles.
🟪 Strategy
Now we come to the part of working with strategies.
Max # of bars after liquidity grab – This parameter allows you to define how many candles you can search for entry signals from the moment liquidity is grabbed. If you are using engulfing as an entry signal, which consists of 2 candles, keep in mind that this number must be at least 2. In general, if you want to test a quick and sharp reaction, set this number as low as possible. If you want to wait for a structural change after the liquidity grab, which may require more candles, set the number a bit higher.
🟪 Strategy - entries
In this section, we define the signals or situations where we can enter the market after liquidity has been taken out.
Liquidity grab - This setup triggers a trade immediately after liquidity is grabbed, meaning the trade opens as the next candle forms.
Close below, close above - This refers to situations where the price closes below liquidity, but then reverses and closes above liquidity again, suggesting the liquidity grab was a false breakout.
Over bar - This occurs when the entire candle (high and low) passes beyond the liquidity level but then experiences a pullback.
Engulfing - A popular price action pattern that is included in this tool.
2HL - weak, medium, strong - A variation of a popular candlestick pattern.
Strong bar - A strong reactionary candle that forms after a liquidity grab. If liquidity is grabbed at a low, this would be a strong long candle that closes near its high and is significantly larger compared to typical volatility.
Naked bar - A candlestick pattern we’ve tested that serves as a good confirmation of market movement.
FVG (Fair Value Gap) - A currently popular concept. This is the only signal with additional settings. “Pending FVG order valid” means if a fair value gap forms after a liquidity grab, a limit order is placed, which remains valid for a set number of candles. “FVG minimal tick size” allows you to filter based on the gap size, measured in ticks. “GAP entry model” lets you decide whether to place the limit order at the gap close or its edge.
🟪 Strategy - General
Long, short - You can choose whether to focus on long or short trades. It’s interesting to see how long and short trades yield different results across various markets.
Pyramiding - By default, the tool opens only one trade at a time. If a new signal arises while a trade is open, it won’t enter another position unless the pyramiding box is checked. You also need to set the maximum number of open trades in the Properties.
Position size - Simply set the size of the traded position.
🟪 Strategy - Time
In this section, you can set time parameters for the strategy being tested.
Test since year - As the name implies, you can limit the testing to start from a specific year.
Trading session - Define the trading session during which you want to test entries. You can also visualize the background (BG) for confirmation.
Exclude session - You can set a session period during which you prefer not to search for trades. For example, when the New York session opens, volatility can sharply increase, potentially reducing the long-term success rate of the tested setup.
🟪 Strategy - Exits
This section lets you define risk management rules.
PT & SL - Set the profit target (PT) and stop loss (SL) here.
Lowest/highest since grab - This option sets the stop loss at the lowest point after a liquidity grab at a low or at the highest point after a liquidity grab at a high. Since markets usually overshoot during liquidity grabs, it’s good practice to place the stop loss at the furthest point after the grab. You can also set your risk-reward ratio (RRR) here. A value of 1 sets an RRR of 1:1, 2 means 2:1, and so on.
Lowest/highest last # bars - Similar to the previous option, but instead of finding the extreme after a liquidity grab, it identifies the furthest point within the last number of candles. You can set how far back to look using the # bars field (for an engulfing pattern, 2 is optimal since it’s made of two candles, and the stop loss can be placed at the edge of the engulfing pattern). The RRR setting works the same way as in the previous option.
Other side liquidity grab - If this option is checked, the trade will exit when liquidity is grabbed on the opposite side (i.e., if you entered on a liquidity grab at a low, the trade will exit when liquidity is grabbed at a high).
Exit after # bars - A popular exit strategy where you close the position after a set number of candles.
Exit after # bars in profit - This option exits the trade once the position is profitable for a certain number of consecutive candles. For example, if set to 5, the position will close when 5 consecutive candles are profitable. You can also set a maximum number of candles (in the max field), ensuring the trade is closed after a certain time even if the profit condition hasn’t been met.
🟪 Alerts
Alerts are a key tool for traders to ensure they don’t miss trading opportunities. They also allow traders to manage their time effectively. Who would want to sit in front of the computer all day waiting for a trading opportunity when they could be attending to other matters? In our tool, you currently have two options for receiving alerts:
Liquidity grabs alert – if you enable this feature and set an alert, the alert will be triggered every time a candle on the current timeframe closes and intersects with the displayed liquidity line.
Entry signals alert – this feature triggers an alert when a signal for entry is generated based on the option you’ve selected in the Entry type. It’s an ideal way to be notified only when a trading opportunity appears according to your predefined rules.
Auto Harmonic TerhalAuto Harmonic Terhal is an advanced harmonic pattern recognition indicator designed to identify a wide range of harmonic patterns and their corresponding Fibonacci retracement levels. This tool is equipped with all major harmonic patterns, including the Gartley, Bat, Crab, DeepCrab, Butterfly, and Shark patterns, along with their precise Fibonacci ratios derived from Scott Carney's Harmonic Trading framework.
Key Features:
Harmonic Patterns: The indicator supports all the essential harmonic patterns, each accompanied by their unique Fibonacci retracement levels, such as 0.382, 0.500, 0.618, 0.786, 0.886, 1.13, 1.618, and 1.902. These ratios are based on Scott Carney's studies.
Predictive and Conventional Usage : The Auto Harmonic Terhal can be used in two ways:
-Predictive: Traders can anticipate harmonic patterns before they are fully formed, allowing them to set up trades in advance.
Conventional: The indicator confirms patterns once they appear, making it a useful tool for pattern validation.
-Accurate Targets: Once a pattern is identified, the indicator displays target levels based on correct Fibonacci ratios, helping traders to locate potential price reversal points and profit targets.
Multi-Zigzag Functionality: The indicator scans for patterns across multiple zigzag configurations, enhancing the detection of different harmonic structures without limiting itself to a single timeframe or zigzag structure.
Fibonacci Ratios for Patterns:
Gartley: XA retracement 61.8%, AB between 0.618 and 0.786, CD 1.272 extension.
Bat: XA retracement 50%, AB 38.2% to 50%, CD 88.6%.

This indicator serves as a crucial aid for harmonic pattern analysis and supports an essential form of technical analysis. However, it does not recommend buying or selling or making any trade decisions directly. It is meant to assist in harmonic analysis for traders, providing a framework for understanding market reversals and structure.
Note : The tool is intended as a technical analysis assistant and does not provide direct buy or sell signals.
CZ Parabolic SAR + MAThe "CZ Parabolic SAR + MA" indicator combines a Parabolic SAR (PSAR) and a Moving Average (MA) to generate buy and sell signals, with an optional noise filter based on the MA. Here's a breakdown of how to use the indicator and its key parameters:
Key Features:
Parabolic SAR helps identify potential reversals by plotting dots above or below the price.
Moving Average smooths out price action and can be shifted forward or backward.
Noise Filter can be toggled on/off to reduce signals when the price doesn't align with the moving average.
How to Use the Indicator:
Parabolic SAR:
Green dots: Indicate a potential buy signal when the PSAR crosses below the price.
Red dots: Indicate a potential sell signal when the PSAR crosses above the price.
Buy/Sell Signals:
BUY: Occurs when the PSAR crosses below the price, and the price is above the moving average (if the filter is enabled).
SELL: Occurs when the PSAR crosses above the price, and the price is below the moving average (if the filter is enabled).
Noise Filter:
If enabled, the indicator will only trigger buy/sell signals if the price is also aligned with the moving average (above for buy, below for sell).
Moving Average:
A simple moving average (SMA) is plotted as a green line on the chart.
The moving average can be shifted forward or backward using the "MA Shift" parameter.
Parameters Explained:
Parabolic SAR Step (Default: 0.02): Controls the sensitivity of the PSAR dots. A smaller step results in dots closer to price, while a larger step results in dots further away.
Parabolic SAR Max (Default: 0.2): The maximum step size the PSAR can reach. This affects how quickly the dots move in strong trends.
Moving Average Period (Default: 6): The number of periods used to calculate the simple moving average. Adjust this to smooth out price action more or less.
MA Shift (Default: 0): Shifts the moving average line. Positive values shift it forward, and negative values shift it backward.
Enable Moving Average Filter (Default: True): Enables or disables the noise filter. If enabled, buy/sell signals require alignment with the moving average.
Prometheus Trend LinesPrometheus Trend lines is a tool that automatically plots support and resistance trend lines on your chart. These lines generally come out looking like triangles or wedges.
There are two ways that we do it, the first way we’ll cover is lookback period generated trend lines.
The two points for the lines are generated as follows, for a resistance line that is blue by default, the point furthest in the past is the highest high in the specified lookback period. 50 is the default, the point closest to the present is the current bar’s high. The opposite is true for support lines, the point furthest in the past is the lowest low, and the most present point is the current bar’s low.
The interval is created by ensuring after the lookback period is met to plot the lines, that period needs to pass again. That is so we can let the potential results of price breaking above or below the levels play out.
Lines will be plotted on the newest lookback period bar, after a period with no plot. What I mean is right after lines are plotted, users will have to wait for double the lookback period to get newer lines. So if you select 50 for your lookback value, after new lines are plotted, on the 100th bar after the new lines will be there. This is to avoid having a line on your chart change, we’d rather plot a line once, than plot it and keep changing it.
Each line is 50 bars long and all the distance in between them is 50 bars. The line is drawn simply with the shortest path from the back point to the more present one, this allows us to see breaks in the line and get a better idea of how strong the next move may be.
We see in this wedge on NASDAQ:TSLA that there were two false breaks before the price re-entered the wedge and continued falling. It could be interpreted as buyers did not have enough strength to get NASDAQ:TSLA out of a downtrend there.
We also offer an intra day line.
In this image captured with the bar replay feature we see the lines being generated with the high and low of the day, that is the method we use. Furthermore, a user may notice that the ends of the line are not at the newest bar. That is on purpose, we use the
barstate.islastconfirmedhistory
to ensure that we don’t change and plot too many lines at a given point. These two lines will reset every day as time changes and will auto use the current day high and low.
Users have the option to select a custom lookback period, as well as turn on or off the plots for either method of generating lines.
We encourage traders to not follow indicators blindly, none are 100% accurate. The lines generated are not guaranteed to be perfect support and resistance levels. We encourage the use of discretion. Please comment on any desired updates, all criticism is welcome!

200 MAPD - Relative Price with candlesticks and divergenceThis is a MAPD (moving average percent difference) indicator that plots the results in candlestick format and with an option to show divergencies of a specific look back period. It's built with 200 moving average, which cannot be adjusted. A divergence is when the actual asset price moves in the opposite direction than the MAPD.
MAPD measures the percent difference of the asset price from the moving average, in this case, 200 moving average.
MAPD is my favorite indicator because it's an leading indicator, capable of predicting upcoming directions pretty accurately if you learn how to use it and how it works on your specific asset. With candlesticks instead of line you can also apply your own price action techniques.
I created this to be somewhat of a substitute for the actual price of the asset, meaning that price action analysis should be applied on this indicator and asset price is used as a secondary to spot divergencies.
The chart showing on this description is my own discretionary plotting of technical aspects. Divergencies will be enabled per default, but my preference is to have them off and plot my own analysis. And turn them on to get an overview from time to time. You can also change the look back period for the divergencies as you like.
I would say it works best from 1 hour to 1 day, maybe 1 week if you're bottom fishing in a big bear trend.
If you try it out and like it i would love to hear how you find it useful in the comments, will be helpful for me and others :)
