FVG Premium [no1x]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator provides a comprehensive toolkit for identifying, visualizing, and tracking Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) across three distinct timeframes (current chart, a user-defined Medium Timeframe - MTF, and a user-defined High Timeframe - HTF). It is designed to offer traders enhanced insight into FVG dynamics through detailed state monitoring (formation, partial fill, full mitigation, midline touch), extensive visual customization for FVG representation, and a rich alert system for timely notifications on FVG-related events.
█ CONCEPTS
This indicator is built upon the core concept of Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and their significance in price action analysis, offering a multi-layered approach to their detection and interpretation across different timeframes.
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)
A Fair Value Gap (FVG), also known as an imbalance, represents a range in price delivery where one side of the market (buying or selling) was more aggressive, leaving an inefficiency or an "imbalance" in the price action. This concept is prominently featured within Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodologies, where such gaps are often interpreted as footprints left by "smart money" due to rapid, forceful price movements. These methodologies suggest that price may later revisit these FVG zones to rebalance a prior inefficiency or to seek liquidity before continuing its path. These gaps are typically identified by a three-bar pattern:
Bullish FVG : This is a three-candle formation where the second candle shows a strong upward move. The FVG is the space created between the high of the first candle (bottom of FVG) and the low of the third candle (top of FVG). This indicates a strong upward impulsive move.
Bearish FVG : This is a three-candle formation where the second candle shows a strong downward move. The FVG is the space created between the low of the first candle (top of FVG) and the high of the third candle (bottom of FVG). This indicates a strong downward impulsive move.
FVGs are often watched by traders as potential areas where price might return to "rebalance" or find support/resistance.
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Analysis
The indicator extends FVG detection beyond the current chart's timeframe (Low Timeframe - LTF) to two higher user-defined timeframes: Medium Timeframe (MTF) and High Timeframe (HTF). This allows traders to:
Identify FVGs that might be significant on a broader market structure.
Observe how FVGs from different timeframes align or interact.
Gain a more comprehensive perspective on potential support and resistance zones.
FVG State and Lifecycle Management
The indicator actively tracks the lifecycle of each detected FVG:
Formation : The initial identification of an FVG.
Partial Fill (Entry) : When price enters but does not completely pass through the FVG. The indicator updates the "current" top/bottom of the FVG to reflect the filled portion.
Midline (Equilibrium) Touch : When price touches the 50% level of the FVG.
Full Mitigation : When price completely trades through the FVG, effectively "filling" or "rebalancing" the gap. The indicator records the mitigation time.
This state tracking is crucial for understanding how price interacts with these zones.
FVG Classification (Large FVG)
FVGs can be optionally classified as "Large FVGs" (LV) if their size (top to bottom range) exceeds a user-defined multiple of the Average True Range (ATR) for that FVG's timeframe. This helps distinguish FVGs that are significantly larger relative to recent volatility.
Visual Customization and Information Delivery
A key concept is providing extensive control over how FVGs are displayed. This control is achieved through a centralized set of visual parameters within the indicator, allowing users to configure numerous aspects (colors, line styles, visibility of boxes, midlines, mitigation lines, labels, etc.) for each timeframe. Additionally, an on-chart information panel summarizes the nearest unmitigated bullish and bearish FVG levels for each active timeframe, providing a quick glance at key price points.
█ FEATURES
This indicator offers a rich set of features designed to provide a highly customizable and comprehensive Fair Value Gap (FVG) analysis experience. Users can tailor the FVG detection, visual representation, and alerting mechanisms across three distinct timeframes: the current chart (Low Timeframe - LTF), a user-defined Medium Timeframe (MTF), and a user-defined High Timeframe (HTF).
Multi-Timeframe FVG Detection and Display
The core strength of this indicator lies in its ability to identify and display FVGs from not only the current chart's timeframe (LTF) but also from two higher, user-selectable timeframes (MTF and HTF).
Timeframe Selection: Users can specify the exact MTF (e.g., "60", "240") and HTF (e.g., "D", "W") through dedicated inputs in the "MTF (Medium Timeframe)" and "HTF (High Timeframe)" settings groups. The visibility of FVGs from these higher timeframes can be toggled independently using the "Show MTF FVGs" and "Show HTF FVGs" checkboxes.
Consistent Detection Logic: The FVG detection logic, based on the classic three-bar imbalance pattern detailed in the 'Concepts' section, is applied consistently across all selected timeframes (LTF, MTF, HTF)
Timeframe-Specific Visuals: Each timeframe's FVGs (LTF, MTF, HTF) can be customized with unique colors for bullish/bearish states and their mitigated counterparts. This allows for easy visual differentiation of FVGs originating from different market perspectives.
Comprehensive FVG Visualization Options
The indicator provides extensive control over how FVGs are visually represented on the chart for each timeframe (LTF, MTF, HTF).
FVG Boxes:
Visibility: Main FVG boxes can be shown or hidden per timeframe using the "Show FVG Boxes" (for LTF), "Show Boxes" (for MTF/HTF) inputs.
Color Customization: Colors for bullish, bearish, active, and mitigated FVG boxes (including Large FVGs, if classified) are fully customizable for each timeframe.
Box Extension & Length: FVG boxes can either be extended to the right indefinitely ("Extend Boxes Right") or set to a fixed length in bars ("Short Box Length" or "Box Length" equivalent inputs).
Box Labels: Optional labels can display the FVG's timeframe and fill percentage on the box. These labels are configurable for all timeframes (LTF, MTF, and HTF). Please note: If FVGs are positioned very close to each other on the chart, their respective labels may overlap. This can potentially lead to visual clutter, and it is a known behavior in the current version of the indicator.
Box Borders: Visibility, width, style (solid, dashed, dotted), and color of FVG box borders are customizable per timeframe.
Midlines (Equilibrium/EQ):
Visibility: The 50% level (midline or EQ) of FVGs can be shown or hidden for each timeframe.
Style Customization: Width, style, and color of the midline are customizable per timeframe. The indicator tracks if this midline has been touched by price.
Mitigation Lines:
Visibility: Mitigation lines (representing the FVG's opening level that needs to be breached for full mitigation) can be shown or hidden for each timeframe. If shown, these lines are always extended to the right.
Style Customization: Width, style, and color of the mitigation line are customizable per timeframe.
Mitigation Line Labels: Optional price labels can be displayed on mitigation lines, with a customizable horizontal bar offset for positioning. For optimal label placement, the following horizontal bar offsets are recommended: 4 for LTF, 8 for MTF, and 12 for HTF.
Persistence After Mitigation: Users can choose to keep mitigation lines visible even after an FVG is fully mitigated, with a distinct color for such lines. Importantly, this option is only effective if the general setting 'Hide Fully Mitigated FVGs' is disabled, as otherwise, the entire FVG and its lines will be removed upon mitigation.
FVG State Management and Behavior
The indicator tracks and visually responds to changes in FVG states.
Hide Fully Mitigated FVGs: This option, typically found in the indicator's general settings, allows users to automatically remove all visual elements of an FVG from the chart once price has fully mitigated it. This helps maintain chart clarity by focusing on active FVGs.
Partial Fill Visualization: When price enters an FVG, the indicator offers a dynamic visual representation: the portion of the FVG that has been filled is shown as a "mitigated box" (typically with a distinct color), while the original FVG box shrinks to clearly highlight the remaining, unfilled portion. This two-part display provides an immediate visual cue about how much of the FVG's imbalance has been addressed and what potential remains within the gap.
Visual Filtering by ATR Proximity: To help users focus on the most relevant price action, FVGs can be dynamically hidden if they are located further from the current price than a user-defined multiple of the Average True Range (ATR). This behavior is controlled by the "Filter Band Width (ATR Multiple)" input; setting this to zero disables the filter entirely, ensuring all detected FVGs remain visible regardless of their proximity to price.
Alternative Usage Example: Mitigation Lines as Key Support/Resistance Levels
For traders preferring a minimalist chart focused on key Fair Value Gap (FVG) levels, the indicator's visualization settings can be customized to display only FVG mitigation lines. This approach leverages these lines as potential support and resistance zones, reflecting areas where price might revisit to address imbalances.
To configure this view:
Disable FVG Boxes: Turn off "Show FVG Boxes" (for LTF) or "Show Boxes" (for MTF/HTF) for the desired timeframes.
Hide Midlines: Disable the visibility of the 50% FVG Midlines (Equilibrium/EQ).
Ensure Mitigation Lines are Visible: Keep "Mitigation Lines" enabled.
Retain All Mitigation Lines:
Disable the "Hide Fully Mitigated FVGs" option in the general settings.
Enable the feature to "keep mitigation lines visible even after an FVG is fully mitigated". This ensures lines from all FVGs (active or fully mitigated) remain on the chart, which is only effective if "Hide Fully Mitigated FVGs" is disabled.
This setup offers:
A Decluttered Chart: Focuses solely on the FVG opening levels.
Precise S/R Zones: Treats mitigation lines as specific points for potential price reactions.
Historical Level Analysis: Includes lines from past, fully mitigated FVGs for a comprehensive view of significant price levels.
For enhanced usability with this focused view, consider these optional additions:
The on-chart Information Panel can be activated to display a quick summary of the nearest unmitigated FVG levels.
Mitigation Line Labels can also be activated for clear price level identification. A customizable horizontal bar offset is available for positioning these labels; for example, offsets of 4 for LTF, 8 for MTF, and 12 for HTF can be effective.
FVG Classification (Large FVG)
This feature allows for distinguishing FVGs based on their size relative to market volatility.
Enable Classification: Users can enable "Classify FVG (Large FVG)" to identify FVGs that are significantly larger than average.
ATR-Based Threshold: An FVG is classified as "Large" if its height (price range) is greater than or equal to the Average True Range (ATR) of its timeframe multiplied by a user-defined "Large FVG Threshold (ATR Multiple)". The ATR period for this calculation is also configurable.
Dedicated Colors: Large FVGs (both bullish/bearish and active/mitigated) can be assigned unique colors, making them easily distinguishable on the chart.
Panel Icon: Large FVGs are marked with a special icon in the Info Panel.
Information Panel
An on-chart panel provides a quick summary of the nearest unmitigated FVG levels.
Visibility and Position: The panel can be shown/hidden and positioned in any of the nine standard locations on the chart (e.g., Top Right, Middle Center).
Content: It displays the price levels of the nearest unmitigated bullish and bearish FVGs for LTF, MTF (if active), and HTF (if active). It also indicates if these nearest FVGs are Large FVGs (if classification is enabled) using a selectable icon.
Styling: Text size, border color, header background/text colors, default text color, and "N/A" cell background color are customizable.
Highlighting: Background and text colors for the cells displaying the overall nearest bullish and bearish FVG levels (across all active timeframes) can be customized to draw attention to the most proximate FVG.
Comprehensive Alert System
The indicator offers a granular alert system for various FVG-related events, configurable for each timeframe (LTF, MTF, HTF) independently. Users can enable alerts for:
New FVG Formation: Separate alerts for new bullish and new bearish FVG formations.
FVG Entry/Partial Fill: Separate alerts for price entering a bullish FVG or a bearish FVG.
FVG Full Mitigation: Separate alerts for full mitigation of bullish and bearish FVGs.
FVG Midline (EQ) Touch: Separate alerts for price touching the midline of a bullish or bearish FVG.
Alert messages are detailed, providing information such as the timeframe, FVG type (bull/bear, Large FVG), relevant price levels, and timestamps.
█ NOTES
This section provides additional information regarding the indicator's usage, performance considerations, and potential interactions with the TradingView platform. Understanding these points can help users optimize their experience and troubleshoot effectively.
Performance and Resource Management
Maximum FVGs to Track : The "Max FVGs to Track" input (defaulting to 25) limits the number of FVG objects processed for each category (e.g., LTF Bullish, MTF Bearish). Increasing this value significantly can impact performance due to more objects being iterated over and potentially drawn, especially when multiple timeframes are active.
Drawing Object Limits : To manage performance, this script sets its own internal limits on the number of drawing objects it displays. While it allows for up to approximately 500 lines (max_lines_count=500) and 500 labels (max_labels_count=500), the number of FVG boxes is deliberately restricted to a maximum of 150 (max_boxes_count=150). This specific limit for boxes is a key performance consideration: displaying too many boxes can significantly slow down the indicator, and a very high number is often not essential for analysis. Enabling all visual elements for many FVGs across all three timeframes can cause the indicator to reach these internal limits, especially the stricter box limit
Optimization Strategies : To help you manage performance, reduce visual clutter, and avoid exceeding drawing limits when using this indicator, I recommend the following strategies:
Maintain or Lower FVG Tracking Count: The "Max FVGs to Track" input defaults to 25. I find this value generally sufficient for effective analysis and balanced performance. You can keep this default or consider reducing it further if you experience performance issues or prefer a less dense FVG display.
Utilize Proximity Filtering: I suggest activating the "Filter Band Width (ATR Multiple)" option (found under "General Settings") to display only those FVGs closer to the current price. From my experience, a value of 5 for the ATR multiple often provides a good starting point for balanced performance, but you should feel free to adjust this based on market volatility and your specific trading needs.
Hide Fully Mitigated FVGs: I strongly recommend enabling the "Hide Fully Mitigated FVGs" option. This setting automatically removes all visual elements of an FVG from the chart once it has been fully mitigated by price. Doing so significantly reduces the number of active drawing objects, lessens computational load, and helps maintain chart clarity by focusing only on active, relevant FVGs.
Disable FVG Display for Unused Timeframes: If you are not actively monitoring certain higher timeframes (MTF or HTF) for FVG analysis, I advise disabling their display by unchecking "Show MTF FVGs" or "Show HTF FVGs" respectively. This can provide a significant performance boost.
Simplify Visual Elements: For active FVGs, consider hiding less critical visual elements if they are not essential for your specific analysis. This could include box labels, borders, or even entire FVG boxes if, for example, only the mitigation lines are of interest for a particular timeframe.
Settings Changes and Platform Limits : This indicator is comprehensive and involves numerous calculations and drawings. When multiple settings are changed rapidly in quick succession, it is possible, on occasion, for TradingView to issue a "Runtime error: modify_study_limit_exceeding" or similar. This can cause the indicator to temporarily stop updating or display errors.
Recommended Approach : When adjusting settings, it is advisable to wait a brief moment (a few seconds) after each significant change. This allows the indicator to reprocess and update on the chart before another change is made
Error Recovery : Should such a runtime error occur, making a minor, different adjustment in the settings (e.g., toggling a checkbox off and then on again) and waiting briefly will typically allow the indicator to recover and resume correct operation. This behavior is related to platform limitations when handling complex scripts with many inputs and drawing objects.
Multi-Timeframe (MTF/HTF) Data and Behavior
HTF FVG Confirmation is Essential: : For an FVG from a higher timeframe (MTF or HTF) to be identified and displayed on your current chart (LTF), the three-bar pattern forming the FVG on that higher timeframe must consist of fully closed bars. The indicator does not draw speculative FVGs based on incomplete/forming bars from higher timeframes.
Data Retrieval and LTF Processing: The indicator may use techniques like lookahead = barmerge.lookahead_on for timely data retrieval from higher timeframes. However, the actual detection of an FVG occurs after all its constituent bars on the HTF have closed.
Appearance Timing on LTF (1 LTF Candle Delay): As a natural consequence of this, an FVG that is confirmed on an HTF (i.e., its third bar closes) will typically become visible on your LTF chart one LTF bar after its confirmation on the HTF.
Example: Assume an FVG forms on a 30-minute chart at 15:30 (i.e., with the close of the 30-minute bar that covers the 15:00-15:30 period). If you are monitoring this FVG on a 15-minute chart, the indicator will detect this newly formed 30-minute FVG while processing the data for the 15-minute bar that starts at 15:30 and closes at 15:45. Therefore, the 30-minute FVG will become visible on your 15-minute chart at the earliest by 15:45 (i.e., with the close of that relevant 15-minute LTF candle). This means the HTF FVG is reflected on the LTF chart with a delay equivalent to one LTF candle.
FVG Detection and Display Logic
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on the current chart timeframe (LTF) are detected based on barstate.isconfirmed. This means the three-bar pattern must be complete with closed bars before an FVG is identified. This confirmation method prevents FVGs from being prematurely identified on the forming bar.
Alerts
Alert Setup : To receive alerts from this indicator, you must first ensure you have enabled the specific alert conditions you are interested in within the indicator's own settings (see 'Comprehensive Alert System' under the 'FEATURES' section). Once configured, open TradingView's 'Create Alert' dialog. In the 'Condition' tab, select this indicator's name, and crucially, choose the 'Any alert() function call' option from the dropdown list. This setup allows the indicator to trigger alerts based on the precise event conditions you have activated in its settings
Alert Frequency : Alerts are designed to trigger once per bar close (alert.freq_once_per_bar_close) for the specific event.
User Interface (UI) Tips
Settings Group Icons: In the indicator settings menu, timeframe-specific groups are marked with star icons for easier navigation: 🌟 for LTF (Current Chart Timeframe), 🌟🌟 for MTF (Medium Timeframe), and 🌟🌟🌟 for HTF (High Timeframe).
Dependent Inputs: Some input settings are dependent on others being enabled. These dependencies are visually indicated in the settings menu using symbols like "↳" (dependent setting on the next line), "⟷" (mutually exclusive inline options), or "➜" (directly dependent inline option).
Settings Layout Overview: The indicator settings are organized into logical groups for ease of use. Key global display controls – such as toggles for MTF FVGs, HTF FVGs (along with their respective timeframe selectors), and the Information Panel – are conveniently located at the very top within the '⚙️ General Settings' group. This placement allows for quick access to frequently adjusted settings. Other sections provide detailed customization options for each timeframe (LTF, MTF, HTF), specific FVG components, and alert configurations.
█ FOR Pine Script® CODERS
This section provides a high-level overview of the FVG Premium indicator's internal architecture, data flow, and the interaction between its various library components. It is intended for Pine Script™ programmers who wish to understand the indicator's design, potentially extend its functionality, or learn from its structure.
System Architecture and Modular Design
The indicator is architected moduarly, leveraging several custom libraries to separate concerns and enhance code organization and reusability. Each library has a distinct responsibility:
FvgTypes: Serves as the foundational data definition layer. It defines core User-Defined Types (UDTs) like fvgObject (for storing all attributes of an FVG) and drawSettings (for visual configurations), along with enumerations like tfType.
CommonUtils: Provides utility functions for common tasks like mapping user string inputs (e.g., "Dashed" for line style) to their corresponding Pine Script™ constants (e.g., line.style_dashed) and formatting timeframe strings for display.
FvgCalculations: Contains the core logic for FVG detection (both LTF and MTF/HTF via requestMultiTFBarData), FVG classification (Large FVGs based on ATR), and checking FVG interactions with price (mitigation, partial fill).
FvgObject: Implements an object-oriented approach by attaching methods to the fvgObject UDT. These methods manage the entire visual lifecycle of an FVG on the chart, including drawing, updating based on state changes (e.g., mitigation), and deleting drawing objects. It's responsible for applying the visual configurations defined in drawSettings.
FvgPanel: Manages the creation and dynamic updates of the on-chart information panel, which displays key FVG levels.
The main indicator script acts as the orchestrator, initializing these libraries, managing user inputs, processing data flow between libraries, and handling the main event loop (bar updates) for FVG state management and alerts.
Core Data Flow and FVG Lifecycle Management
The general data flow and FVG lifecycle can be summarized as follows:
Input Processing: User inputs from the "Settings" dialog are read by the main indicator script. Visual style inputs (colors, line styles, etc.) are consolidated into a types.drawSettings object (defined in FvgTypes). Other inputs (timeframes, filter settings, alert toggles) control the behavior of different modules. CommonUtils assists in mapping some string inputs to Pine constants.
FVG Detection:
For the current chart timeframe (LTF), FvgCalculations.detectFvg() identifies potential FVGs based on bar patterns.
For MTF/HTF, the main indicator script calls FvgCalculations.requestMultiTFBarData() to fetch necessary bar data from higher timeframes, then FvgCalculations.detectMultiTFFvg() identifies FVGs.
Newly detected FVGs are instantiated as types.fvgObject and stored in arrays within the main script. These objects also undergo classification (e.g., Large FVG) by FvgCalculations.
State Update & Interaction: On each bar, the main indicator script iterates through active FVG objects to manage their state based on price interaction:
Initially, the main script calls FvgCalculations.fvgInteractionCheck() to efficiently determine if the current bar's price might be interacting with a given FVG.
If a potential interaction is flagged, the main script then invokes methods directly on the fvgObject instance (e.g., updateMitigation(), updatePartialFill(), checkMidlineTouch(), which are part of FvgObject).
These fvgObject methods are responsible for the detailed condition checking and the actual modification of the FVG's state. For instance, the updateMitigation() and updatePartialFill() methods internally utilize specific helper functions from FvgCalculations (like checkMitigation() and checkPartialMitigation()) to confirm the precise nature of the interaction before updating the fvgObject’s state fields (such as isMitigated, currentTop, currentBottom, or isMidlineTouched).
Visual Rendering:
The FvgObject.updateDrawings() method is called for each fvgObject. This method is central to drawing management; it creates, updates, or deletes chart drawings (boxes, lines, labels) based on the FVG's current state, its prev_* (previous bar state) fields for optimization, and the visual settings passed via the drawSettings object.
Information Panel Update: The main indicator script determines the nearest FVG levels, populates a panelData object (defined in FvgPanelLib), and calls FvgPanel.updatePanel() to refresh the on-chart display.
Alert Generation: Based on the updated FVG states and user-enabled alert settings, the main indicator script constructs and triggers alerts using Pine Script's alert() function."
Key Design Considerations
UDT-Centric Design: The fvgObject UDT is pivotal, acting as a stateful container for all information related to a single FVG. Most operations revolve around creating, updating, or querying these objects.
State Management: To optimize drawing updates and manage FVG lifecycles, fvgObject instances store their previous bar's state (e.g., prevIsVisible, prevCurrentTop). The FvgObject.updateDrawings() method uses this to determine if a redraw is necessary, minimizing redundant drawing calls.
Settings Object: A drawSettings object is populated once (or when inputs change) and passed to drawing functions. This avoids repeatedly reading numerous input() values on every bar or within loops, improving performance.
Dynamic Arrays for FVG Storage: Arrays are used to store collections of fvgObject instances, allowing for dynamic management (adding new FVGs, iterating for updates).

Volume pressure by GSK-VIZAG-AP-INDIA🔍 Volume Pressure by GSK-VIZAG-AP-INDIA
🧠 Overview
“Volume Pressure” is a multi-timeframe, real-time table-based volume analysis tool designed to give traders a clear and immediate view of buying and selling pressure across custom-selected timeframes. By breaking down buy volume, sell volume, total volume, and their percentages, this indicator helps traders identify demand/supply imbalances and volume momentum in the market.
🎯 Purpose / Trading Use Case
This indicator is ideal for intraday and short-term traders who want to:
Spot aggressive buying or selling activity
Track volume dynamics across multiple timeframes *1 min time frame will give best results*
Use volume pressure as a confirming tool alongside price action or trend-based systems
It helps determine when large buying/selling activity is occurring and whether such behavior is consistent across timeframes—a strong signal of institutional interest or volume-driven trend shifts.
🧩 Key Features & Logic
Real-Time Table Display: A clean, dynamic table showing:
Buy Volume
Sell Volume
Total Volume
Buy % of total volume
Sell % of total volume
Multi-Time frame Analysis: Supports 8 user-selectable custom time frames from 1 to 240 minutes, giving flexibility to analyze volume pressure at various granularities.
Color-Coded Volume Bias:
Green for dominant Buy pressure
Red for dominant Sell pressure
Yellow for Neutral
Intensity-based blinking for extreme values (over 70%)
Dynamic Data Calculation:
Uses volume * (close > open) logic to estimate buy vs sell volumes bar-by-bar, then aggregates by timeframe.
⚙️ User Inputs & Settings
Timeframe Selectors (TF1 to TF8): Choose any 8 timeframes you want to monitor volume pressure across.
Text & Color Settings:
Customize text colors for Buy, Sell, Total volumes
Choose Buy/Sell bias colors
Enable/disable blinking for visual emphasis on extremes
Table Appearance:
Set header color, metric background, and text size
Table positioning: top-right, bottom-right, etc.
Blinking Highlight Toggle: Enable this to visually highlight when Buy/Sell % exceeds 70%—a sign of strong pressure.
📊 Visual Elements Explained
The table has 6 rows and 10 columns:
Row 0: Headers for Today and TF1 to TF8
Rows 1–3: Absolute values (Buy Vol, Sell Vol, Total Vol)
Rows 4–5: Relative percentages (Buy %, Sell %), with dynamic background color
First column shows the metric names (e.g., “Buy Vol”)
Cells blink using alternate background colors if volume pressure crosses thresholds
💡 How to Use It Effectively
Use Buy/Sell % rows to confirm potential breakout trades or identify volume exhaustion zones
Look for multi-timeframe confluence: If 5 or more TFs show >70% Buy pressure, buyers are in control
Combine with price action (e.g., breakouts, reversals) to increase conviction
Suitable for equities, indices, futures, crypto, especially on lower timeframes (1m to 15m)
🏆 What Makes It Unique
Table-based MTF Volume Pressure Display: Most indicators only show volume as bars or histograms; this script summarizes and color-codes volume bias across timeframes in a tabular format.
Customization-friendly: Full control over colors, themes, and timeframes
Blinking Alerts: Rare visual feature to capture user attention during extreme pressure
Designed with performance and readability in mind—even for fast-paced scalping environments.
🚨 Alerts / Extras
While this script doesn’t include TradingView alert functions directly, the visual blinking serves as a strong real-time alert mechanism.
Future versions may include built-in alert conditions for buy/sell bias thresholds.
🔬 Technical Concepts Used
Volume Dissection using close > open logic (to estimate buyer vs seller pressure)
Simple aggregation of volume over custom timeframes
Table plotting using Pine Script table.new, table.cell
Dynamic color logic for bias identification
Custom blinking logic using na(bar_index % 2 == 0 ? colorA : colorB)

Session High/Low: Asia & LondonIndicator to automatically mark the lower low and the higher high of the Asian and London sessions.
Timeframe % TrakcerPulls historical closes from nine higher-timeframe look-backs (1 H, 12 H, 1 D, 7 D, 14 D, 1 M, 3 M, 6 M, 1 Y, 3 Y) with request.security().
2. Calculates the percent change between each look-back close and the current price:
(close − close₍look-back₎) / close₍look-back₎ × 100
3. Renders a two-column table in the chart’s top-right corner.
• Left column = timeframe label
• Right column = % move, rounded to two decimals
4. Heat-codes the cells — green if the asset is up, red if it’s down — so you can spot momentum (or pain) instantly.
5. Stays lightweight by updating only on the last bar; no excess runtimes.
EMA Trend Filter Alert + CooldownThis indicator uses two EMA lengths of your choosing.
1. There is an alert when price crosses the long EMA which I put in Flags at the top and bottom.
2. There is also an alert when price crosses the second faster EMA.
3. When price is above the slow EMA then only BUY signals will be shown as price crosses the fast EMA.
4. When price is below the fast EMA then only sell signals will be shown as price crosses below the fast EMA.
5. I included colour changing EMAs for both the fast and slow EMA.
6. The is also a "Cooldown" period between alerts so we do not see too many alerts at the same time. Set it to your own number of candles. On the 3m chart I have it set on 25.
7. This indicator is designed to be a trend following indicator. When the market is trending down then price will be under the slow EMA and then only sell signals will appear on the price cross of the fast EMA. During the turning points in the trend we might not see signals on the fast EMA so I added the alert for the cross of the slow EMA.
8. All the alerts have been combined into one alert. The buy and sell alerts and also the cross of the slow EMA.
9. I use this on the 3m chart with a 30m Williams %r and a 3H Williams %r. The 30 minute should be enough.
10. This indicator is not designed to catch the tops or bottoms of a trend. It is designed to catch the continuation moves. This indicator need a trending market. The trend is your friend.
11. Use at your own risk. Do your own due diligence before taking a trade and do not rely entirely on this indicator.
12. I have not tested this indicator for repainting.
13. Have fun with the indicator and leave a message and vote it up if you like it.

LANZ Strategy 4.0 [Backtest]🔷 LANZ Strategy 4.0 — Strategy Execution Based on Confirmed Structure + Risk-Based SL/TP
LANZ Strategy 4.0 is the official backtesting engine for the LANZ Strategy 4.0 trading logic. It simulates real-time executions based on breakout of Strong/Weak Highs or Lows, using a consistent structural system with SL/TP dynamically calculated per trade. With integrated risk management and lot size logic, this script allows traders to validate LANZ Strategy 4.0 performance with real strategy metrics.
🧠 Core Components:
Confirmed Breakout Entries: Trades are executed only when price breaks the most recent structural level (Strong High or Strong Low), detected using swing pivots.
Dynamic SL and TP Logic: SL is placed below/above the breakout point with a customizable buffer. TP is defined using a fixed Risk-Reward (RR) ratio.
Capital-Based Risk Management: Lot size is calculated based on account equity, SL distance, and pip value (e.g. $10 per pip on XAUUSD).
Clean and Controlled Executions: Only one trade is active at a time. No new entries are allowed until the current position is closed.
📊 Visual Features:
Automatic plotting of Entry, SL, and TP levels.
Full control of swing sensitivity (swingLength) and SL buffer.
SL and TP lines extend visually for clarity of trade risk and reward zones.
⚙️ How It Works:
Detects pivots and classifies trend direction.
Waits for breakout above Strong High (BUY) or below Strong Low (SELL).
Calculates dynamic SL and TP based on buffer and RR.
Computes trade size automatically based on risk per trade %.
Executes entry and manages exits via strategy engine.
📝 Notes:
Ideal for evaluating the LANZ Strategy 4.0 logic over historical data.
Must be paired with the original indicator (LANZ Strategy 4.0) for live trading.
Best used on assets with clear structural behavior (gold, indices, FX).
📌 Credits:
Backtest engine developed by LANZ based on the official rules of LANZ Strategy 4.0. This script ensures visual and logical consistency between live charting and backtesting simulations.
Combined CMF, AO, RSI, MACDThis script shows a single pane data about RSI, MACD cross, AO histogram, and CMF data. This is an educational script, created just for own research purposes not meant to break any guidelines or stuff.
The only purpose is to keep the chart looks more clean than filled with too many indicators, that's why to save the space I have customized this 4 into 1.
Multi-frame combination signalThis indicator provides signals based on a combination of multiple basic indicators (MACD, RSI, TSI) on three time frames. It can also display moving averages, Bollinger bands, and Ichimoku clouds. The three time frames can be set independently for each indicator. If you check "combination signal", a signal combining each checked basic indicator with "and" will be displayed. If you want to combine each basic indicator with "or", uncheck "combination signal" and check all the indicators you want to use. Each basic indicator can also be combined with five moving averages.

Grid TLong V1The “Grid TLong V1” strategy is based on the classic Grid strategy, but in the mode of buying and selling in favor of the trend and only on Long. This allows to take advantage of large uptrend movements to maximize profits in bull markets. For this reason, excessively sideways or bearish markets may not be very conducive to this strategy.
Like our Grid strategies in favor of the trend, you can enter and exit with the balance with controlled risk, as the distance between each grid functions as a natural and adaptable stop loss and take profit. What differentiates it from bidirectional strategies is that Short uses a minimum amount of follow-through, so that the percentage distance between the grids is maintained.
In this version of the script the entries and exits can be chosen at market or limit , and are based on the profit or loss of the current position, not on the percentage change in price.
The user may also notice that the strategy setup is risk-controlled, because it risks 5% on each trade, has a fairly standard commission and modest initial capital, all in order to protect the strategy user from unrealistic results.
As with all strategies, it is strongly recommended to optimize the parameters for the strategy to be effective for each asset and for each time frame.

Hull Moving Average RibbonGradient Wave HMA - Multi-Ribbon Hull Moving Average System
Overview
The Gradient Wave HMA is an advanced technical indicator that transforms Alan Hull's Hull Moving Average (HMA) into a dynamic multi-layered ribbon system. Unlike traditional moving average ribbons that use simple or exponential calculations, this indicator applies Hull's innovative lag-reduction formula across 12 different timeframes simultaneously, creating a visually striking gradient effect that flows with market momentum.
Technical Foundation
This indicator is built upon the Hull Moving Average, developed by Alan Hull in 2005. The HMA uses a weighted moving average calculation designed to almost eliminate lag while maintaining curve smoothness:
HMA = WMA(2*WMA(n/2) − WMA(n), sqrt(n))
Credit: Alan Hull (www.alanhull.com)
Key Features
Multi-Period Ribbon Structure
12 individual HMA lines with customizable periods
Preset configurations for different trading styles:
Fast: 3-30 period range (scalping/intraday)
Swing: 8-55 period range (swing trading)
Position: 20-100 period range (position trading)
Custom: User-defined periods
2. Neon Gradient Visualization
Bullish Gradient: Transitions from blue-purple to hot purple
Bearish Gradient: Flows from hot pink to purple-pink
Each line has a unique color in the spectrum
Gradient fills between lines create depth and visual flow
3. Advanced Alert System
Trend Reversal Alerts: Notifies when ribbon changes direction
Price Breakout Alerts: Triggers when price crosses the ribbon
Compression Alerts: Signals potential breakouts during consolidation
Expansion Alerts: Confirms strong trending conditions
Momentum Surge Alerts: Catches explosive moves early
How It Works
The indicator calculates 12 Hull Moving Averages, each with a different period length. The trend direction is determined by the middle HMA (6th line), which triggers the color change across the entire ribbon. When trending up, the ribbon displays a purple gradient; when trending down, it shifts to a pink gradient.
Trading Applications
1. Trend Identification
Ribbon color indicates overall trend direction
All lines moving in sync confirms strong trend
Mixed signals suggest choppy or transitioning markets
2. Dynamic Support/Resistance
In uptrends, the ribbon acts as moving support
In downtrends, it provides resistance levels
Multiple layers offer various strength levels
3. Momentum Analysis
Expanding ribbon = Increasing momentum
Contracting ribbon = Decreasing momentum/consolidation
Ribbon angle indicates trend strength
4. Trading Example
Advantages Over Traditional MAs
Reduced Lag: Hull's formula provides faster response than SMA/EMA ribbons
Visual Clarity: Gradient effect makes trend changes immediately visible
Multiple Timeframes: 12 periods provide comprehensive market view
Flexibility: Presets adapt to different trading styles
Best Practices
Use higher timeframes (4H, Daily) for position trading
Combine with volume indicators for confirmation
Watch for ribbon compression before major moves
Consider overall market conditions when interpreting signals
Customization Options
Adjust individual HMA periods
Fine-tune transparency for different backgrounds
Choose between WMA and EMA base calculations
The Gradient Wave HMA combines Alan Hull's breakthrough moving average formula with modern visualization techniques to create a powerful trend-following tool that's both technically sophisticated and visually intuitive.
