DTFX Algo Zones [SamuraiJack Mod]CME_MINI:NQ1!
Credits
This indicator is a modified version of an open-source tool originally developed by Lux Algo. I literally modded their indicator to create the DTFX Algo Zones version, incorporating additional features and refinements. Special thanks to Lux Algo for their original work and for providing the open-source code that made this development possible.
Introduction
DTFX Algo Zones is a technical analysis indicator designed to automatically identify key supply and demand zones on your chart using market structure and Fibonacci retracements. It helps traders spot high-probability reversal areas and important support/resistance levels at a glance. By detecting shifts in market structure (such as Break of Structure and Change of Character) and highlighting bullish or bearish zones dynamically, this tool provides an intuitive framework for planning trades. The goal is to save traders time and improve decision-making by focusing attention on the most critical price zones where market bias may confirm or reverse.
Logic & Features
• Market Structure Shift Detection (BOS & CHoCH): The indicator continuously monitors price swings and marks significant structure shifts. A Break of Structure (BOS) occurs when price breaks above a previous swing high or below a swing low, indicating a continuation of the current trend. A Change of Character (ChoCH) is detected when price breaks in the opposite direction of the prior trend, often signaling an early trend reversal. These moments are visually marked on the chart, serving as anchor points for new zones. By identifying BOS and ChoCH in real-time, the DTFX Algo Zones indicator ensures you’re aware of key trend changes as they happen.
• Auto-Drawn Fibonacci Supply/Demand Zones: Upon a valid structure shift, the indicator plots a Fibonacci-based zone between the breakout point and the preceding swing high/low (the source of the move). This creates a shaded area or band of Fibonacci retracement levels (for example 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, etc.) representing a potential support zone in an uptrend or resistance zone in a downtrend. These supply/demand zones are derived from the natural retracement of the breakout move, highlighting where price is likely to pull back. Each zone is essentially an auto-generated Fibonacci retracement region tied to a market structure event, which traders can use to anticipate where the next pullback or bounce might occur.
• Dynamic Bullish and Bearish Zones: The DTFX Algo Zones indicator distinguishes bullish vs. bearish zones and updates them dynamically as new price action unfolds. Bullish zones (formed after bullish BOS/ChoCH) are typically highlighted in one color (e.g. green or blue) to indicate areas of demand/support where price may bounce upward. Bearish zones (formed after bearish BOS/ChoCH) are shown in another color (e.g. red/orange) to mark supply/resistance where price may stall or reverse downward. This color-coding and real-time updating allow traders to instantly recognize the market bias: for instance, a series of bullish zones implies an uptrend with multiple support levels on pullbacks, while consecutive bearish zones indicate a downtrend with resistance overhead. As old zones get invalidated or new ones appear, the chart remains current with the latest key levels, eliminating clutter from outdated levels.
• Flexible Customization: The indicator comes with several options to tailor the zones to your trading style. You can filter which zones to display – for example, show only the most recent N zones or limit to only bullish or only bearish zones – helping declutter the chart and focus on recent, relevant levels. There are settings to control zone extension (how far into the future the zones are drawn) and to automatically invalidate zones once they’re no longer relevant (for instance, if price fully breaks through a zone or a new structure shift occurs that supersedes it). Additionally, the Fibonacci retracement levels within each zone are customizable: you can choose which retracement percentages to plot, adjust their colors or line styles, and decide whether to fill the zone area for visibility. This flexibility ensures the DTFX Algo Zones can be tuned for different markets and strategies, whether you want a clean minimalist look or detailed zones with multiple internal levels.
Best Use Cases
DTFX Algo Zones is a versatile indicator that can enhance various trading strategies. Some of its best use cases include:
• Identifying High-Probability Reversal Zones: Each zone marks an area where price has a higher likelihood of stalling or reversing because it reflects a significant prior swing and Fibonacci retracement. Traders can watch these zones for entry opportunities when the market approaches them, as they often coincide with order block or strong supply/demand areas. This is especially useful for catching trend reversals or pullbacks at points where risk is lower and potential reward is higher.
• Spotting Key Support and Resistance: The automatically drawn zones act as dynamic support (below price) and resistance (above price) levels. Instead of manually drawing Fibonacci retracements or support/resistance lines, you get an instant map of the key levels derived from recent price action. This helps in quickly identifying where the next bounce (support) or rejection (resistance) might occur. Swing traders and intraday traders alike can use these zones to set alerts or anticipate reaction areas as the market moves.
• Trend-Following Entries: In a trending market, the indicator’s zones provide ideal areas to join the trend on pullbacks. For example, in an uptrend, when a new bullish zone is drawn after a BOS, it indicates a fresh demand zone – buying near the lower end of that zone on a pullback can offer a low-risk entry to ride the next leg up. Similarly, in a downtrend, selling rallies into the highlighted supply zones can position you in the direction of the prevailing trend. The zones effectively serve as a roadmap of the trend’s structure, allowing trend traders to buy dips and sell rallies with greater confidence.
• Mean-Reversion and Range Trading: Even in choppy or range-bound markets, DTFX Algo Zones can help find mean-reversion trades. If price is oscillating sideways, the zones at extremes of the range might mark where momentum is shifting (ChoCH) and price could swing back toward the mean. A trader might fade an extended move when it reaches a strong zone, anticipating a reversion. Additionally, if multiple zones cluster in an area across time (creating a zone overlap), it often signifies a particularly robust support/resistance level ideal for range trading strategies.
In all these use cases, the indicator’s ability to filter out noise and highlight structurally important levels means traders can focus on higher-probability setups and make more informed trading decisions.
Strategy – Pullback Trading with DTFX Algo Zones
One of the most effective ways to use the DTFX Algo Zones indicator is trading pullbacks in the direction of the trend. Below is a step-by-step strategy to capitalize on pullbacks using the zones, combining the indicator’s signals with sound price action analysis and risk management:
1. Identify a Market Structure Shift and Trend Bias: First, observe the chart for a recent BOS or ChoCH signal from the indicator. This will tell you the current trend bias. For instance, a bullish BOS/ChoCH means the market momentum has shifted upward (bullish bias), and a new demand zone will be drawn. A bearish structure break indicates downward momentum and creates a supply zone. Make sure the broader context supports the bias (e.g., if multiple higher timeframe zones are bullish, focus on long trades).
2. Wait for the Pullback into the Zone: Once a new zone appears, don’t chase the price immediately. Instead, wait for price to retrace back into that highlighted zone. Patience is key – let the market come to you. For a bullish setup, allow price to dip into the Fibonacci retracement zone (demand area); for a bearish setup, watch for a rally into the supply zone. Often, the middle of the zone (around the 50% retracement level) can be an optimal area where price might slow down and pivot, but it’s wise to observe price behavior across the entire zone.
3. Confirm the Entry with Price Action & Confluence: As price tests the zone, look for confirmation signals before entering the trade. This can include bullish reversal candlestick patterns (for longs) or bearish patterns (for shorts) such as engulfing candles, hammers/shooting stars, or doji indicating indecision turning to reversal. Additionally, incorporate confluence factors to strengthen the setup: for example, check if the zone overlaps with a key moving average, a round number price level, or an old support/resistance line from a higher timeframe. You might also use an oscillator (like RSI or Stochastic) to see if the pullback has reached oversold conditions in a bullish zone (or overbought in a bearish zone), suggesting a bounce is likely. The more factors aligning at the zone, the more confidence you can have in the trade. Only proceed with an entry once you see clear evidence of buyers defending a demand zone or sellers defending a supply zone.
4. Enter the Trade and Manage Risk: When you’re satisfied with the confirmation (e.g., price starts to react positively off a demand zone or shows rejection wicks in a supply zone), execute your entry in the direction of the original trend. Immediately set a stop-loss order to control risk: for a long trade, a common placement is just below the demand zone (a few ticks/pips under the swing low that formed the zone); for a short trade, place the stop just above the supply zone’s high. This way, if the zone fails and price continues beyond it, your loss is limited. Position size the trade so that this stop-loss distance corresponds to a risk you are comfortable with (for example, 1-2% of your trading capital).
5. Take Profit Strategically: Plan your take-profit targets in advance. A conservative approach is to target the origin of the move – for instance, in a long trade, you might take profit as price moves back up to the swing high (the 0% Fibonacci level of the zone) or the next significant zone or resistance level above. This often yields at least a 1:1 reward-to-risk ratio if you entered around mid-zone. More aggressive trend-following traders may leave a portion of the position running beyond the initial target, aiming for a larger move in line with the trend (for example, new higher highs in an uptrend). You can also trail your stop-loss upward behind new higher lows (for longs) or lower highs (for shorts) as the trend progresses, locking in profit while allowing for further gains.
6. Monitor Zone Invalidation: Even after entering, keep an eye on the behavior around the zone and any new zones that may form. If price fails to bounce and instead breaks decisively through the entire zone, respect that as an invalidation – the market may be signaling a deeper reversal or that the signal was false. In such a case, it’s better to exit early or stick to your stop-loss than to hold onto a losing position. The indicator will often mark or no longer highlight zones that have been invalidated by price, guiding you to shift focus to the next opportunity.
Risk Management Tips:
• Always use a stop-loss and don’t move it farther out in hope. Placing the stop just beyond the zone’s far end (the swing point) helps protect you if the pullback turns into a larger reversal.
• Aim for a favorable risk-to-reward ratio. With pullback entries near the middle or far end of a zone, you can often achieve a reward that equals or exceeds your risk. For example, risking 20 pips to make 20+ pips (1:1 or better) is a prudent starting point. Adjust targets based on market structure – if the next resistance is 50 pips away, consider that upside against your risk.
• Use confluence and context: Don’t take every zone signal in isolation. The highest probability trades come when the DTFX Algo Zone aligns with other analysis (trend direction, chart patterns, higher timeframe support/resistance, etc.). This filtered approach will reduce trades taken in weak zones or counter-trend traps.
• Embrace patience and selectivity: Not all zones are equal. It can be wise to skip very narrow or insignificant zones and wait for those that form after a strong BOS/ChoCH (indicating a powerful move). Larger zones or zones formed during high-volume times tend to produce more reliable pullback opportunities.
• Review and adapt: After each trade, note how price behaved around the zone. If you notice certain Fib levels (like 50% or 61.8%) within the zone consistently provide the best entries, you can refine your approach to focus on those. Similarly, adjust the indicator’s settings if needed – for example, if too many minor zones are cluttering your screen, limit to the last few or increase the structure length parameter to capture only more significant swings.
⸻
By combining the DTFX Algo Zones indicator with disciplined confirmation and risk management, traders can improve their timing on pullback entries and avoid chasing moves. This indicator shines in helping you trade what you see, not what you feel – the clearly marked zones and structure shifts keep you grounded in price action reality. Whether you’re a trend trader looking to buy the dip/sell the rally, or a reversal trader hunting for exhaustion points, DTFX Algo Zones provides a robust visual aid to elevate your trading decisions. Use it as a complementary tool in your analysis to stay on the right side of the market’s structure and enhance your trading performance.
Mogwai Method with RSI and EMA - BTCUSD 15mThis is a custom TradingView indicator designed for trading Bitcoin (BTCUSD) on a 15-minute timeframe. It’s based on the Mogwai Method—a mean-reversion strategy—enhanced with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) for momentum confirmation. The indicator generates buy and sell signals, visualized as green and red triangle arrows on the chart, to help identify potential entry and exit points in the volatile cryptocurrency market.
Components
Bollinger Bands (BB):
Purpose: Identifies overextended price movements, signaling potential reversions to the mean.
Parameters:
Length: 20 periods (standard for mean-reversion).
Multiplier: 2.2 (slightly wider than the default 2.0 to suit BTCUSD’s volatility).
Role:
Buy signal when price drops below the lower band (oversold).
Sell signal when price rises above the upper band (overbought).
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
Purpose: Confirms momentum to filter out false signals from Bollinger Bands.
Parameters:
Length: 14 periods (classic setting, effective for crypto).
Overbought Level: 70 (price may be overextended upward).
Oversold Level: 30 (price may be overextended downward).
Role:
Buy signal requires RSI < 30 (oversold).
Sell signal requires RSI > 70 (overbought).
Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) (Plotted but not currently in signal logic):
Purpose: Provides trend context (included in the script for visualization, optional for signal filtering).
Parameters:
Fast EMA: 9 periods (short-term trend).
Slow EMA: 50 periods (longer-term trend).
Role: Can be re-added to filter signals (e.g., buy only when Fast EMA > Slow EMA).
Signals (Triangles):
Buy Signal: Green upward triangle below the bar when price is below the lower Bollinger Band and RSI is below 30.
Sell Signal: Red downward triangle above the bar when price is above the upper Bollinger Band and RSI is above 70.
How It Works
The indicator combines Bollinger Bands and RSI to spot mean-reversion opportunities:
Buy Condition: Price breaks below the lower Bollinger Band (indicating oversold conditions), and RSI confirms this with a reading below 30.
Sell Condition: Price breaks above the upper Bollinger Band (indicating overbought conditions), and RSI confirms this with a reading above 70.
The strategy assumes that extreme price movements in BTCUSD will often revert to the mean, especially in choppy or ranging markets.
Visual Elements
Green Upward Triangles: Appear below the candlestick to indicate a buy signal.
Red Downward Triangles: Appear above the candlestick to indicate a sell signal.
Bollinger Bands: Gray lines (upper, middle, lower) plotted for reference.
EMAs: Blue (Fast) and Orange (Slow) lines for trend visualization.

Enter a short position (sell BTCUSD) or exit a long position.
Set a take-profit near the middle Bollinger Band or a support level.
Place a stop-loss 1-2% above the entry.
Best Context: Effective in ranging markets; avoid during strong uptrends.
Trend Filter (Optional):
To reduce false signals in trending markets, you can modify the script:
Add and ema_fast > ema_slow to the buy condition (only buy in uptrends).
Add and ema_fast < ema_slow to the sell condition (only sell in downtrends).
Check the Fast EMA (blue) vs. Slow EMA (orange) alignment visually.
Tips for BTCUSD on 15-Minute Charts
Volatility: BTCUSD can be erratic. If signals are too frequent, increase bb_mult (e.g., to 2.5) or adjust RSI levels (e.g., 75/25).
Confirmation: Use volume spikes or candlestick patterns (e.g., doji, engulfing) to confirm signals.
Time of Day: Mean-reversion works best during low-volume periods (e.g., Asian session in crypto).
Backtesting: Use TradingView’s Strategy Tester (convert to a strategy by adding entry/exit logic) to evaluate performance with historical BTCUSD data up to March 13, 2025.
Risk Management
Position Size: Risk no more than 1-2% of your account per trade.
Stop Losses: Always use stops to protect against BTCUSD’s sudden moves.
Avoid Overtrading: Wait for clear signals; don’t force trades in choppy or unclear conditions.
Example Scenario
Chart: BTCUSD, 15-minute timeframe.
Buy Signal: Price drops to $58,000, below the lower Bollinger Band, RSI at 28. A green triangle appears.
Action: Buy at $58,000, target $59,000 (middle BB), stop at $57,500.
Sell Signal: Price rises to $60,500, above the upper Bollinger Band, RSI at 72. A red triangle appears.
Action: Sell at $60,500, target $59,500 (middle BB), stop at $61,000.

HighLow BoxesDesigned to visualize higher time frame (HTF) candles on a lower time frame (LTF) chart, specifically for Forex or other trading instruments. It draws boxes around the HTF candle's high, low, and body, offering a clear graphical representation of price action for easier analysis. The script provides customization options for box colors, line styles, and display preferences such as including body ranges or adding midlines. Additionally, it features a 50% horizontal line at the midpoint of each box to highlight the center of price action for better trading decisions. The script works with any time frame interval, but the effectiveness might decrease with non-divisible time intervals (e.g., a 2-minute chart with a 5-minute HTF).
Inverted USDT DominanceInverted USDT Dominance Indicator
This simple yet powerful indicator plots the inverted USDT Dominance (USDT.D), making it visually intuitive to analyze market sentiment shifts. Typically, USDT dominance rises when investors seek stability, indicating a "risk-off" market environment. Conversely, it falls when investors pursue riskier assets like cryptocurrencies, signaling a "risk-on" environment.
Why invert the USDT Dominance chart?
By flipping USDT Dominance around the zero line, this indicator allows traders and investors to more clearly visualize its correlation and divergence with traditional market indicators like the 10-year Treasury yield (TNX), Bitcoin, or equity indices. A rising line on this inverted indicator intuitively indicates increasing market risk appetite, whereas a falling line highlights growing risk aversion.
Use cases:
Quickly visualize market sentiment (risk-on vs. risk-off).
Identify divergences and correlations between crypto markets and traditional financial instruments.
Enhance portfolio allocation decisions by clearly seeing sentiment changes.
HTF Vertical LinesShow selected high time frame divider in your current time frame.

Wave N + KDJ + Volumi + SMC + IchimokuWave N + KDJ + Volume + SMC + Ichimoku Indicator
Overview
This script is a multi-layered technical indicator designed to provide traders with enhanced market insights by combining five key methodologies:
• Wave N Pattern (Price Action)
• KDJ Oscillator (Momentum)
• Volume Filtering (Confirmation)
• Smart Money Concepts (Order Blocks) (Institutional Activity)
• Ichimoku Cloud (Trend and Support/Resistance)
By integrating these components, the indicator identifies high-probability trading signals, early warnings of trend shifts, and institutional price zones to improve decision-making in volatile markets.
⸻
How It Works
1️⃣ Wave N Pattern (Price Action Structure)
The Wave N pattern is a classic price action formation that helps spot potential trend reversals and continuations:
• A Bullish Wave N is detected when a higher low and a higher high structure appears.
• A Bearish Wave N is detected when a lower high and a lower low structure forms.
2️⃣ KDJ Oscillator (Momentum & Trend Strength)
The KDJ Indicator is a variation of the Stochastic Oscillator that adds a third line, J, to amplify sensitivity to trend movements.
• J > 50 indicates bullish momentum.
• J < 50 indicates bearish momentum.
• The script includes an early warning signal when J crosses 50, suggesting a possible trend shift.
3️⃣ Volume Filtering (Trade Confirmation)
To avoid false signals, the script integrates volume confirmation:
• A signal is valid only if the volume is above the 20-period EMA of volume.
• This ensures that trade signals are supported by strong market participation.
4️⃣ Smart Money Concepts (Order Blocks)
Order Blocks represent areas of institutional interest, where large traders accumulate or distribute positions.
• The script detects bullish order blocks (potential support) and bearish order blocks (potential resistance).
• These areas help identify optimal entry and exit points.
5️⃣ Ichimoku Cloud (Trend & Dynamic Support/Resistance)
The Ichimoku Cloud is used to confirm trend direction:
• Baseline (Kijun-sen) acts as a key trend filter.
• Senkou Span A & B form the cloud (Kumo), indicating dynamic support/resistance.
• Buy signals require price to be above the baseline, while sell signals require price to be below the baseline.
⸻
Trading Signals & Visual Elements
✅ BUY Signal (Green Arrow)
Occurs when:
• A Bullish Wave N forms
• J > 50 (Bullish KDJ Signal)
• Volume is above EMA threshold
• Price is above the Ichimoku Baseline
❌ SELL Signal (Red Arrow)
Occurs when:
• A Bearish Wave N forms
• J < 50 (Bearish KDJ Signal)
• Volume is above EMA threshold
• Price is below the Ichimoku Baseline
⚠️ Early Warning (Trend Shift Signal)
• An early warning appears when J crosses 50, indicating a possible upcoming trend shift.
• The line color changes based on the potential move:
• Green/Blue → Possible Uptrend
• Red/Orange → Possible Downtrend
⸻
Why This Indicator is Unique?
Unlike simple trend-following indicators, this script:
• Combines Price Action, Momentum, Volume, and Institutional Order Flow for a multi-dimensional approach.
• Filters out weak signals using volume confirmation and Ichimoku.
• Provides early warnings before major trend shifts.
• Visualizes Smart Money Order Blocks, giving traders an edge in spotting institutional zones.

Vortex Candle MarkerVortex Candle Marker
The Vortex Candle Marker is a specialized TradingView indicator designed to identify and highlight **Vortex Candles**—candles that momentarily form without wicks on either the high or low. This unique price behavior can signal potential price retracements or reversals, aligning with the **Power of Three (PO3)** concept in price action theory.
Indicator Logic:
A candle is classified as a **Vortex Candle** if either of these conditions is met during its formation:
1. **Vortex Top:** The **high** equals either the **open** or **close**, indicating no upper wick.
2. **Vortex Bottom:** The **low** equals either the **open** or **close**, indicating no lower wick.
When a Vortex Candle is detected, the indicator changes the **candle border color** to **aqua**, making it easy to identify these significant price moments.
Market Insight & PO3 Interpretation:
In typical price behavior, most candles exhibit both upper and lower wicks, representing price exploration before settling at a closing value. A candle forming without a wick suggests **strong directional intent** at that moment. However, by the **Power of Three (PO3)** concept—Accumulation, Manipulation, and Distribution—such wickless formations often imply:
- **Price Reversion Likelihood:** When a candle temporarily forms without a wick, it suggests the market may **revisit the opening price** to establish a wick before the candle closes.
- **Liquidity Manipulation:** The absence of a wick may indicate a **stop-hunt** or liquidity grab, where the price manipulates one side before reversing.
- **Entry Triggers:** Identifying these moments can help traders anticipate potential **retracements** or **continuations** within the PO3 framework.
Practical Application
- **Early Reversal Detection:** Spot potential price reversals by observing wickless candles forming at key levels.
- **Breakout Validation:** Use Vortex Candles to confirm **true breakouts** or **false moves** before the price returns.
- **Liquidity Zones:** Identify areas where the market is likely to revisit to create a wick, signaling entry/exit points.
This indicator is a powerful tool for traders applying **Po3** methodologies and seeking to capture price manipulation patterns.
Custom Timeframe Bias IndicatorMy "Custom Timeframe Bias Indicator" is a very practical and powerful TradingView indicator. It can be called a "God-like indicator" because it combines flexible timeframe customization, clear bias analysis and intuitive visual display to help traders quickly understand the long and short trends of the market. The following is a detailed description of this indicator:
1. Index name and function overview
Name: Custom Timeframe Bias Indicator (Short title: Bias Indicator)
Functionality: This indicator analyses the market bias (Buy, Sell or No Bias) across multiple custom timeframes (presets are 15m, 1h, 4h and DAI) and displays it in a table below the middle of the chart. It determines the direction of market trends based on the highest and lowest prices of the previous two periods and the closing price of the previous period, helping traders make decisions quickly.
2. Core Features
Multiple time frame analysis
The indicator allows the user to customize four time frames, with presets being 15 minutes ("15"), 1 hour ("60"), 4 hours ("240") and daily ("D"). Users can freely modify these time frames in the settings, such as changing to 5 minutes, 30 minutes or weekly, etc.
Bias is calculated independently for each time frame, ensuring that traders can observe market trends from the short to the long term.
Bias calculation logic
The indicator uses simple but effective rules to determine bias:
Buy (bullish): If the previous closing price is higher than the highest price of the previous two periods, or tests the lowest price of the previous two periods but does not break through.
Sell (Bearish): If the previous closing price is lower than the previous two periods' lowest price, or if it tests the previous two periods' highest price but fails to break through (higher than the previous high minus 10% of the price range).
No Bias: If the previous closing price does not meet the above conditions, it displays a neutral state.
Bias calculation is based only on the opening and closing prices, without considering the shadows, ensuring the results are in line with the philosophy of the Malaysian SNR strategy.
Intuitive display
Position: The table is permanently displayed in the middle of the chart (position.middle_center) and is updated with each candlestick, ensuring that traders can always see the latest bias.
Format: The table consists of the header "Custom Bias" and four rows of bias results (e.g. "15: Buy", "60: Sell", "240: No Bias", "D: Buy"), each row showing the bias for the corresponding time frame.
color:
Titles appear in white text on a blue background.
The "Buy" bias is shown as white text on a green background.
The "Sell" bias is shown as white text on a red background.
"No Bias" bias appears as white text on a gray background.
Table borders are black to provide clear visual distinction.
Customizability
Users can customize by inputting parameters:
Whether to show the table (Show Bias Table).
Timeframe (Timeframe 1, Timeframe 2, Timeframe 3, Timeframe 4).
The color of the table (title, Buy, Sell, No Bias, borders, etc.).
3. Why is it a "God-like indicator"
Flexibility: Allows users to customize four time frames to suit different trading strategies (short-term traders can choose minutes, long-term traders can choose daily, weekly or monthly).
Practicality: Provides bias analysis in multiple time frames to help traders quickly determine market trends, whether for short-term or long-term operations.
Intuitive: The table is displayed in the middle below the chart with bright colors (green Buy, red Sell, gray No Bias), allowing you to identify the market direction at a glance.
Stability: Calculated based on simple price data (high, low, close), no need for complex indicators, efficient and reliable operation.
Powerful visualization: long-term display and customizability to meet the visual preferences of different traders.
4. Usage scenarios
Short-term trading: Use 15-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour biases to quickly capture short-term trends.
Long-term trading: Refer to the daily bias to determine the overall market direction.
Comprehensive analysis: Combine biases from multiple time frames to confirm consistency (e.g. if both the 15 minute and daily are Buy, then that’s a stronger bullish signal).
5. Potential Improvements
If you want to further improve this "god-like indicator", you can consider the following improvements:
Added alert: Trigger when bias changes from "No Bias" to "Buy" or "Sell".
Show historical bias: Add bias history of the past few days in the table for easy review.
Dynamically adjust bias thresholds: Allow users to customize 10% price ranges or other conditions.
Multi-currency support: Expand to multiple trading pairs or indices, showing multiple market biases.
6. Technical Details

RSI, Volume, MACD, EMA ComboRSI + Volume + MACD + EMA Trading System
This script combines four powerful indicators—Relative Strength Index (RSI), Volume, Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), and Exponential Moving Average (EMA)—to create a comprehensive trading strategy for better trend confirmation and trade entries.
How It Works
RSI (Relative Strength Index)
Helps identify overbought and oversold conditions.
Used to confirm momentum strength before taking a trade.
Volume
Confirms the strength of price movements.
Avoids false signals by ensuring there is sufficient trading activity.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)
Confirms trend direction and momentum shifts.
Provides buy/sell signals through MACD line crossovers.
EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
Acts as a dynamic support and resistance level.
Helps filter out trades that go against the overall trend.
Trading Logic
Buy Signal:
RSI is above 50 (bullish momentum).
MACD shows a bullish crossover.
The price is above the EMA (trend confirmation).
Volume is increasing (strong participation).
Sell Signal:
RSI is below 50 (bearish momentum).
MACD shows a bearish crossover.
The price is below the EMA (downtrend confirmation).
Volume is increasing (intense selling pressure).
Backtesting & Risk Management
The strategy is optimized for scalping on the 1-minute timeframe (adjustable for other timeframes).
Default settings use realistic commission and slippage to simulate actual trading conditions.
A stop-loss and take-profit system is integrated to manage risk effectively.
This script is designed to help traders filter out false signals, improve trend confirmation, and increase trade accuracy by combining multiple indicators in a structured way.
Opening RangeShows the opening range for morning and afternoon session. 9:30-10:00 and 1:30-2:00 EST.
It also has the option to add 0.5 and 1 standard deviations in both directions or range extensions.
Note: If you are having weird scaling issues when using this script, especially with the extensions, go to the settings in the bottom right of the chart. It is where the time and price axis meet which is bottom right by default. And then make sure "Scale price chart only" is enabled.
Rally Base Drop SND Pivots [LuxAlgo]The Rally Base Drop SND Pivots indicator uses "Rally", "Base", and "Drop" Candles to determine pivot points at which supply and demand (SND) levels are drawn.
🔶 USAGE
Rally, Base, and Drop (RBD) candles create a formula for seeing market structure through a fixed methodology. We are able to use this concept to point out pivot areas where Rallies and Drops directly meet.
The RBD SND Pivots are similar to traditionally identified "fractal" pivot points, with one key difference.
RBD SND Pivots detect a specific number of Rally and Drop candles directly back-to-back, requiring one side of the pivot to contain entirely green candles and the other to be entirely red candles or vice versa.
Since these pivot levels are based on Rally, Base, and Drop candles, the method directly implements rigid logic to further structure a trading system when utilizing these pivot levels with traditional SND concepts.
Furthermore, by implementing this logic when looking for pivots, a significant portion of potential noise is naturally filtered out.
🔶 DETAILS
In typical SND systems, the term "Base" is used for multiple meanings.
In this indicator, the base is a product of a pivot being formed. Once a Pivot is identified, the "Base" is marked as the first Rally or Drop of the second half of the pivot formation.
Once the pivot is identified, the high or low of the base candle is used to measure the pivot level.
🔶 SETTINGS
Length: Sets the number of Rally and Drop Candles that the script will require to identify pivots.
Ex. "3" = 3 Rally followed by 3 Drop
Historical Lookback: Hides historic levels based on a bar # Lookback from the current bar.
When set to 0, all Levels will display. (0 by default)

Reposted Original Description by © ka66 Kamal Advani
Visually shows the Body Range (open to close) and Candle Range (high to low).
Semi-transparent overlapping area is the full Candle Range, and fully-opaque smaller area is the Body Range. For aesthetics and visual consistency, Candle Range follows the direction of the Body Range, even though technically it's always positive (high - low).
The different plots for each range type also means the UI will allow deselecting one or the other as needed. For example, some strategies may care only about the Body Range, rather than the entire Candle Range, so the latter can be hidden to reduce noise.
Threshold horizontal lines are plotted, so the trader can modify these high and low levels as needed through the user interface. These need to be configured to match the instrument's price range levels for the timeframe. The defaults are pretty arbitrary for +/- 0.0080 (80 pips in a 4-decimal place forex pair). Where a range reaches or exceeds a threshold, it's visually marked as well with a shape at the Body or Candle peak, to assist with quicker visual potential setup scanning, for example, to anticipate a following reversal or continuation.

Dynamic Price ImpulseThis indicator is designed to capture price momentum without the lag typically found in traditional oscillators.
Core Mechanics
Instead of using simple price differences, the indicator normalizes changes relative to the average true range (ATR), making it adaptive to different volatility regimes.
By squaring the normalized change while preserving its sign, the indicator responds more aggressively to stronger price moves while remaining sensitive to smaller ones.
The indicator identifies periods when volatility is expanding, which often precede significant price movements.
Trading Strategy Applications
1. Momentum Signals:
o When the indicator crosses above zero, look for long entries
o When it crosses below zero, look for short entries
o The stronger the impulse (farther from zero), the stronger the signal
2. Early Trend Detection:
o Volatility expansion markers (yellow circles) often appear at the beginning of new trends
o Use these as early warning signals to prepare for potential entries
3. Trend Continuation:
o Strong readings in the direction of the trend suggest continuation
o Weakening readings suggest the trend may be losing steam
4. Counter-Trend Opportunities:
o Look for divergences between price and the indicator for potential reversals
o When price makes a new high but the indicator doesn't, consider potential shorts (and vice versa)
Fine-Tuning
• Length (14): Controls the lookback period for ATR calculation. Lower values make it more responsive but noisier.
• Threshold (1.5): Determines how much volatility needs to expand to trigger the volatility expansion signal.
• Smoothing (3): Reduces noise in the signal. Higher values reduce false signals but introduce more lag.
Engulfing Candles (ATR-Based)This indicator detects Engulfing Patterns with an ATR-based filtering mechanism and trend confirmation. Unlike a basic engulfing pattern indicator that only checks if a current candle engulfs the previous one, this script incorporates trend detection using either the 50-period SMA alone or a combination of 50 and 200-period SMAs to ensure that signals align with the broader trend. The indicator identifies Bullish Engulfing patterns when a strong bullish candle engulfs a smaller bearish candle in a downtrend and Bearish Engulfing patterns when a strong bearish candle engulfs a smaller bullish candle in an uptrend. It also generates alerts and visually marks these patterns with labels ("BU" for bullish and "BE" for bearish) while highlighting the background accordingly.
What sets this indicator apart from a normal engulfing indicator is its ATR-based filtering system, which ensures that only significant engulfing candles are considered. Instead of accepting any engulfing pattern, the script measures candle body size relative to 1.5x ATR (configurable) to filter out weak signals. It also differentiates between long-bodied and small-bodied candles to confirm that the engulfing pattern represents real momentum shifts. This approach reduces false signals caused by small, insignificant candles and ensures that traders focus on high-probability reversal patterns. By integrating trend-based filtering and ATR-based confirmation, this indicator provides more reliable and context-aware engulfing signals than a standard engulfing pattern detector.
