FVG & Order Block Entry Methods
2 Different TP / SL Methods
Customizable Execution Settings
Customizable Backtesting Dashboard
Alerts for Buy, Sell, TP & SL Signals
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The Candle Range Theory (CRT) indicator operates by identifying significant price movements through the relative size and structure of candlesticks. A key part of the strategy is determining large candles based on their range compared to the Average True Range (ATR) in a higher timeframe. Once identified, a breakout of either the high wick or the low wick of the large candle is required. This breakout is considered a liquidity grab. After that, the indicator waits for confirmation through Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) or Order Blocks (OBs). The confirmation structure must be the opposite direction of the breakout, for example if the high wick is broken, a bearish FVG is required for the short entry. After a confirmation signal is received, the indicator will trigger entry points based on your chosen entry method (FVG or OB), and exit points will be calculated using either a dynamic ATR-based TP/SL method or fixed percentages. Alerts for Buy, Sell, Take-Proft, and Stop-Loss are available.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
This indicator stands out because it combines two highly effective entry methods: Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Order Blocks (OBs). You can choose between these strategies depending on market conditions. Additionally, the dynamic TP/SL system uses the ticker's volatility to automatically calculate stop-loss and take-profit targets. The backtesting dashboard provides metrics about the performance of the indicator. You can use it to tune the settings for best use in the current tiker. The Candle Range Theory approach offers more flexibility compared to traditional indicators, allowing for better customization and control based on your risk tolerance.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Higher Timeframe: Customize the higher timeframe for analysis. Recommended combinations include M15 -> H4, H4 -> Daily, Daily -> Weekly, and Weekly -> Monthly.
HTF Candle Size: Define the size of the higher timeframe candles as Big, Normal, or Small to filter valid setups based on their range relative to ATR.
Entry Mode: Choose between FVGs and Order Blocks for your entry triggers.
Require Retracement: Enable this option if you want a retracement to the FVG or OB for entry confirmation.
Show HTF Candle Lines: Toggle to display the higher timeframe candle lines for better visual clarity.
2. Fair Value Gaps
FVG Sensitivity: You may select between Low, Normal, High or Extreme FVG detection sensitivity. This will essentially determine the size of the spotted FVGs, with lower sensitivities resulting in spotting bigger FVGs, and higher sensitivities resulting in spotting all sizes of FVGs.
3. Order Blocks
Swing Length: Swing length is used when finding order block formations. Smaller values will result in finding smaller order blocks.
4. TP / SL
TP / SL Method:
a) Dynamic: The TP / SL zones will be auto-determined by the algorithm based on the Average True Range (ATR) of the current ticker.
b) Fixed : You can adjust the exact TP / SL ratios from the settings below.
Dynamic Risk: The risk you're willing to take if "Dynamic" TP / SL Method is selected. Higher risk usually means a better winrate at the cost of losing more if the strategy fails. This setting is has a crucial effect on the performance of the indicator, as different tickers may have different volatility so the indicator may have increased performance when this setting is correctly adjusted.

TS Volatility-Adjusted EWMAThe TS Volatility-Adjusted Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) is a dynamic trend-following indicator designed to adapt to changing market volatility. Unlike traditional moving averages, this indicator adjusts its sensitivity based on market conditions, making it more responsive during periods of high volatility and smoother when markets are calmer.
Key Features:
Volatility Adjustment: The EWMA length is dynamically scaled using the Average True Range (ATR), making it adaptive to market volatility. This allows the indicator to react quickly when volatility spikes and remain stable when volatility drops.
User-Controlled Smoothing: The indicator includes an optional smoothing period, allowing you to adjust how smooth or reactive the line is to price changes. If you prefer a more smoothed-out trend, simply increase the smoothing length.
This indicator is perfect for trend-following traders who want an adaptive tool that stays responsive to the market’s volatility. The TS Volatility-Adjusted EWMA helps you confidently follow market trends, whether you’re riding a long-term trend or catching shorter-term movements.
DEB SuperTrend [Mattes]The Dynamic Envelope Based Supertrend integrates two key concepts: dynamic envelopes and the Supertrend, creating a powerful trend-following tool. Understanding its functionality requires a closer look at how the envelopes are constructed and how they interact with price action.
Dynamic Envelopes
>>> Dynamic envelopes are bands that surround a central moving average (MA) which is set by the user. These are then calculated based on the standard deviation of price movements over a specified period. The formula for the upper and lower envelopes is as follows:
Upper Envelope=MA+(Multiplier×STD)
Lower Envelope=MA−(Multiplier×STD)
This dynamic approach ensures that the envelopes expand and contract based on market volatility. In periods of high volatility, the envelopes widen, allowing for more price movement without triggering false signals. Conversely, in low-volatility periods, the envelopes tighten, enhancing sensitivity to price changes.
Interaction with the Supertrend
The Supertrend component is a trend-following indicator that utilizes the concept of Average True Range (ATR) to define its trailing stop levels.
In this indicator however (like I've mentioned before), the ATR bands have been replaced with the STD envelopes, as they offer a better performance compared to ATR bands.
Trend Direction
The Supertrend indicator generates buy and sell signals based on price crossing the calculated upper and lower envelopes:
>>> Buy Signal: Triggered when the price closes above the upper envelope, indicating a potential upward trend.
>>> Sell Signal: Triggered when the price closes below the lower envelope, suggesting a downward trend.
Adaptive Nature:
The dynamic envelopes effectively serve as dynamic support and resistance levels, which adapt to price movements and volatility, while the Supertrend tracks these levels to confirm the trend direction and adjust accordingly to changes, making it an enhanced version of ATR Based Supertrends.
Unique Aspects and Advantages
->>>> The Dynamic Envelope Based Supertrend is unique for several reasons:
>>> Volatility Responsiveness: The indicator adjusts its sensitivity based on market conditions, reducing the likelihood of false signals during quiet market phases and improving reliability during volatile periods. This is reasoned by the STD envelope bands contracting and expanding relative to the tickers performance.
>>> Trend Confirmation: By integrating the Supertrend logic, the indicator not only provides entry signals but also guides traders on when to exit, maintaining a focus on trend-following rather than mean reversion.
>>> Stability: Due to its use of Standard deviation envelopes, it is very ressistant in periods of uncertainty, Rather than buy bottom and selling tops, it stays long/short for the complete period of mean reverting environments, which is based on the bigger and fuller trend direction on the larger timescales.
>>> Clear Signals: The indicator simplifies decision-making by offering visual cues through its envelopes and trend signals, making it accessible to traders of all experience levels.
Summary:
The Dynamic Envelope Based Supertrend is a sophisticated trend-following indicator that intelligently combines dynamically adjusted STD envelopes with Supertrend logic. By incorporating volatility metrics, it offers a clear and actionable framework for traders, enhancing their ability to identify and follow trends effectively.
DSL Trend Analysis [ChartPrime]The DSL Trend Analysis indicator utilizes Discontinued Signal Lines (DSL) deployed directly on price, combined with dynamic bands, to analyze the trend strength and momentum of price movements. By tracking the high and low price values and comparing them to the DSL bands, it provides a visual representation of trend momentum, highlighting both strong and weakening phases of market direction.
⯁ KEY FEATURES AND HOW TO USE
⯌ DSL-Based Trend Detection :
This indicator uses Discontinued Signal Lines (DSL) to evaluate price action. When the high stays above the upper DSL band, the line turns lime, indicating strong upward momentum. Similarly, when the low stays below the lower DSL band, the line turns orange, indicating strong downward momentum. Traders can use these visual signals to identify strong trends in either direction.
⯌ Bands for Trend Momentum :
The indicator plots dynamic bands around the DSL lines based on ATR (Average True Range). These bands provide a range within which price can fluctuate, helping to distinguish between strong and weakening trends. If the high remains within the upper band, the lime-colored line becomes transparent, showing weakening upward momentum. The same concept applies for the lower band, where the line turns orange with transparency, indicating weakening downward momentum.
If high and low stays between bands line has no color
to make sure indicator catches only strong momentum of price
⯌ Real-Time Band Price Labels :
The indicator places two labels on the chart, one at the upper DSL band and one at the lower DSL band, displaying the real-time price values of these bands. These labels help traders track the current price relative to the key bands, which are essential in determining potential breakout or reversal zones.
⯌ Visual Confirmation of Momentum Shifts :
By monitoring the relationship between the high and low values of the price relative to the DSL bands, this indicator provides a reliable way to confirm whether the trend is gaining or losing strength. This allows traders to act accordingly, whether it's to enter or exit positions based on trend strength or weakness.
⯁ USER INPUTS
Length : Defines the period used to calculate the DSL lines, influencing the sensitivity of the trend detection.
Offset : Adjusts the offset applied to the upper and lower DSL bands, affecting how the thresholds for strong or weak momentum are set.
Width (ATR Multiplier) : Determines the width of the DSL bands based on an ATR multiplier, providing a dynamic range around the price for momentum analysis.
⯁ CONCLUSION
The DSL Trend Analysis indicator is a powerful tool for assessing price momentum and trend strength. By combining Discontinued Signal Lines with dynamically calculated bands, traders can easily spot key moments when momentum shifts from strong to weak or vice versa. The color-coded lines and real-time price labels provide valuable insights for trading decisions in both trending and ranging markets.
Options Series - Dynamic Support & Resistance
🌟 Key Features & How It Works:
⭐ Dynamic Support and Resistance Management:
The script dynamically calculates and draws support and resistance lines based on pivot highs and pivot lows. Unlike static levels that remain unchanged, these lines are updated in real-time. When a support or resistance level is breached, the corresponding line is automatically deleted, keeping the chart clean and relevant. This feature ensures that the trader is always looking at valid support and resistance levels based on the current price action.
⭐ Use of Arrays for Line Management:
The script utilizes arrays to store and manage support and resistance lines (array.new_line(0)). This is a more advanced feature of Pine Script v5, allowing for efficient handling of multiple lines on the chart. By using arrays, the script can easily track and manipulate multiple lines (adding, removing, updating), ensuring that the chart remains optimized for real-time analysis.
⭐ Customizable Inputs for Flexibility:
The script includes user inputs for the pivot length and the line width, making it adaptable to different trading styles and preferences. The pivot length determines how sensitive the indicator is to price changes, while the line width allows traders to customize the visual representation of support and resistance levels. These inputs add flexibility and make the script accessible to a broad range of traders.
⭐ Efficient Breach Detection Mechanism:
The isBreached function is a key part of the script. It checks whether the current price has breached any of the existing support or resistance levels. If a breach is detected (i.e., the price crosses below a support or above a resistance), the respective line is deleted, ensuring that only active and valid lines remain on the chart. This automatic update feature reduces the need for manual intervention, helping traders stay focused on key price levels.
⭐ Visual Clarity and Chart Cleanliness:
By deleting breached lines, the script ensures that the chart does not become cluttered with outdated or irrelevant lines. This visual clarity is crucial for traders who rely on clean, simple charts for decision-making. Removing unnecessary information helps traders make faster, more confident decisions based on the current market structure.
⭐ Scalability for Multiple Timeframes:
The use of pivot points makes the script adaptable to different timeframes, from intraday scalping to longer-term swing trading. By changing the pivot length, traders can optimize the indicator for different market environments, ensuring that it can be applied across various asset classes and timeframes.
⭐ Practical for Range-bound and Breakout Trading:
This script is particularly effective for traders who focus on range-bound markets or breakout strategies. It allows them to quickly identify areas where price is likely to reverse (support/resistance) or break out (when support/resistance is breached), providing real-time insight into market dynamics.
⭐ Simplification of Price Action Analysis:
By automating the calculation of pivots and management of support/resistance levels, the script simplifies price action analysis. Traders no longer need to manually draw or monitor these levels, which is a common task in technical analysis. This provides an edge, as it reduces the time spent on chart preparation and helps focus on executing trades.
⭐ Originality:
The script "Options Series - Pivot Based Support & Resistance" is an original approach to generating support and resistance levels using pivot points. Pivot-based techniques are popular, but the script introduces an automated dynamic way of drawing support and resistance lines, tracking breaches, and deleting lines when they are no longer valid. This aspect adds a refreshing layer of interactivity and functionality that sets it apart from basic pivot point scripts. The use of arrays to store and manage multiple support and resistance lines is also a good application of Pine Script’s newer array functionalities.
⭐ Uniqueness of the Script:
The script stands out due to its dynamic management of support and resistance lines. Unlike traditional scripts that simply plot static pivot points, this one evolves with the market by removing broken levels, ensuring only valid support and resistance lines are visible on the chart. This is particularly useful for traders who focus on clean charting. The use of arrays to store and manage the lines, alongside the efficient deletion of lines when breached, demonstrates a solid understanding of Pine Script v5's advanced features, such as array manipulation.
🚀 Conclusion:
This script stands out for its real-time adaptability, dynamic support/resistance management, and efficient use of Pine Script’s advanced features. It a powerful tool for both novice and advanced traders.
The script is an indicator designed to draw support and resistance levels based on pivot highs and lows, dynamically removing lines when they are breached. If a price crosses a support or resistance level, the respective line is deleted, ensuring the chart reflects the current state of support and resistance accurately.
Stochastics Confluences 4 in 1Description of the Pine Script:
This script plots the Full Stochastic indicator for four different time periods, and highlights conditions where potential buy or sell signals can be identified. The Stochastic indicator measures the position of the current closing price relative to the range of high and low prices over a defined period, helping traders identify overbought and oversold conditions.
Key Features:
Stochastic Calculation for 4 Different Periods:
The script calculates the Stochastic for four separate lookback periods: 9, 14, 40, and 60 bars.
Each Stochastic value is smoothed by a Simple Moving Average (SMA) to reduce noise and provide a clearer signal.
Visual Representation:
It plots each Stochastic value on the chart using different colors, allowing the user to see how the different periods of the indicator behave relative to each other.
Horizontal lines are drawn at 80 (Upper Bound) and 20 (Lower Bound), commonly used to identify overbought and oversold regions.
Highlighting Buy and Sell Conditions:
Green Highlight (Potential Buy Signal):
When all four Stochastic values (for the four different periods) are below 20, this suggests that the asset is in an oversold condition across multiple timeframes. The green background highlight appears when the Stochastic lines converge below 20, indicating a potential buy signal, as the price may be preparing to move upward from an oversold state.
Red Highlight (Potential Sell Signal):
When all four Stochastic values are above 80, the asset is in an overbought condition across multiple timeframes. The red background highlight appears when the Stochastic lines converge above 80, indicating a potential sell signal, as the price may soon reverse downward from an overbought state.
How to Interpret the Signals:
Buy Signals (Green Highlight):
When the chart is highlighted in green, it means the Stochastic indicators for all four periods are below 20, signaling that the asset is oversold and may be nearing a potential upward reversal. This condition suggests a possible buying opportunity, especially when other indicators confirm the potential for an upward trend.
Sell Signals (Red Highlight):
When the chart is highlighted in red, it indicates that the Stochastic indicators for all four periods are above 80, meaning the asset is overbought. This condition signals a possible downward reversal, suggesting a potential selling opportunity if the price begins to show signs of weakness.
By using this script, traders can visually identify periods of strong confluence across different timeframes when the Stochastic indicators are in extreme oversold or overbought conditions, which are traditionally seen as strong buy or sell signals.
This approach helps filter out weaker signals and focuses on moments when all timeframes align, increasing the probability of a successful trade.

Cosine-Weighted MA ATR [InvestorUnknown]The Cosine-Weighted Moving Average (CWMA) ATR (Average True Range) indicator is designed to enhance the analysis of price movements in financial markets. By incorporating a cosine-based weighting mechanism , this indicator provides a unique approach to smoothing price data and measuring volatility, making it a valuable tool for traders and investors.
Cosine-Weighted Moving Average (CWMA)
The CWMA is calculated using weights derived from the cosine function, which emphasizes different data points in a distinctive manner. Unlike traditional moving averages that assign equal weight to all data points, the cosine weighting allocates more significance to values at the edges of the data window. This can help capture significant price movements while mitigating the impact of outlier values.
The weights are shifted to ensure they remain non-negative, which helps in maintaining a stable calculation throughout the data series. The normalization of these weights ensures they sum to one, providing a proportional contribution to the average.
// Function to calculate the Cosine-Weighted Moving Average with shifted weights
f_Cosine_Weighted_MA(series float src, simple int length) =>
var float cosine_weights = array.new_float(0)
array.clear(cosine_weights) // Clear the array before recalculating weights
for i = 0 to length - 1
weight = math.cos((math.pi * (i + 1)) / length) + 1 // Shift by adding 1
array.push(cosine_weights, weight)
// Normalize the weights
sum_weights = array.sum(cosine_weights)
for i = 0 to length - 1
norm_weight = array.get(cosine_weights, i) / sum_weights
array.set(cosine_weights, i, norm_weight)
// Calculate Cosine-Weighted Moving Average
cwma = 0.0
if bar_index >= length
for i = 0 to length - 1
cwma := cwma + array.get(cosine_weights, i) * close
cwma
Cosine-Weighted ATR Calculation
The ATR is an essential measure of volatility, reflecting the average range of price movement over a specified period. The Cosine-Weighted ATR uses a similar weighting scheme to that of the CWMA, allowing for a more nuanced understanding of volatility. By emphasizing more recent price movements while retaining sensitivity to broader trends, this ATR variant offers traders enhanced insight into potential price fluctuations.
// Function to calculate the Cosine-Weighted ATR with shifted weights
f_Cosine_Weighted_ATR(simple int length) =>
var float cosine_weights_atr = array.new_float(0)
array.clear(cosine_weights_atr)
for i = 0 to length - 1
weight = math.cos((math.pi * (i + 1)) / length) + 1 // Shift by adding 1
array.push(cosine_weights_atr, weight)
// Normalize the weights
sum_weights_atr = array.sum(cosine_weights_atr)
for i = 0 to length - 1
norm_weight_atr = array.get(cosine_weights_atr, i) / sum_weights_atr
array.set(cosine_weights_atr, i, norm_weight_atr)
// Calculate Cosine-Weighted ATR using true ranges
cwatr = 0.0
tr = ta.tr(true) // True Range
if bar_index >= length
for i = 0 to length - 1
cwatr := cwatr + array.get(cosine_weights_atr, i) * tr
cwatr
Signal Generation
The indicator generates long and short signals based on the relationship between the price (user input) and the calculated upper and lower bands, derived from the CWMA and the Cosine-Weighted ATR. Crossover conditions are used to identify potential entry points, providing a systematic approach to trading decisions.

Sine-Weighted MA ATR [InvestorUnknown]The Sine-Weighted MA ATR is a technical analysis tool designed to emphasize recent price data using sine-weighted calculations , making it particularly well-suited for analyzing cyclical markets with repetitive patterns . The indicator combines the Sine-Weighted Moving Average (SWMA) and a Sine-Weighted Average True Range (SWATR) to enhance price trend detection and volatility analysis.
Sine-Weighted Moving Average (SWMA):
Unlike traditional moving averages that apply uniform or exponentially decaying weights, the SWMA applies Sine weights to the price data.
Emphasis on central data points: The Sine function assigns more weight to the middle of the lookback period, giving less importance to the beginning and end points. This helps capture the main trend more effectively while reducing noise from recent volatility or older data.
// Function to calculate the Sine-Weighted Moving Average
f_Sine_Weighted_MA(series float src, simple int length) =>
var float sine_weights = array.new_float(0)
array.clear(sine_weights) // Clear the array before recalculating weights
for i = 0 to length - 1
weight = math.sin((math.pi * (i + 1)) / length)
array.push(sine_weights, weight)
// Normalize the weights
sum_weights = array.sum(sine_weights)
for i = 0 to length - 1
norm_weight = array.get(sine_weights, i) / sum_weights
array.set(sine_weights, i, norm_weight)
// Calculate Sine-Weighted Moving Average
swma = 0.0
if bar_index >= length
for i = 0 to length - 1
swma := swma + array.get(sine_weights, i) * close
swma
Sine-Weighted ATR:
This is a variation of the Average True Range (ATR), which measures market volatility. Like the SWMA, the ATR is smoothed using Sine-based weighting, where central values are more heavily considered compared to the extremities. This improves sensitivity to changes in volatility while maintaining stability in highly volatile markets.
// Function to calculate the Sine-Weighted ATR
f_Sine_Weighted_ATR(simple int length) =>
var float sine_weights_atr = array.new_float(0)
array.clear(sine_weights_atr)
for i = 0 to length - 1
weight = math.sin((math.pi * (i + 1)) / length)
array.push(sine_weights_atr, weight)
// Normalize the weights
sum_weights_atr = array.sum(sine_weights_atr)
for i = 0 to length - 1
norm_weight_atr = array.get(sine_weights_atr, i) / sum_weights_atr
array.set(sine_weights_atr, i, norm_weight_atr)
// Calculate Sine-Weighted ATR using true ranges
swatr = 0.0
tr = ta.tr(true) // True Range
if bar_index >= length
for i = 0 to length - 1
swatr := swatr + array.get(sine_weights_atr, i) * tr
swatr
ATR Bands:
Upper and lower bands are created by adding/subtracting the Sine-Weighted ATR from the SWMA. These bands help identify overbought or oversold conditions, and when the price crosses these levels, it may generate long or short trade signals.
// - - - - - CALCULATIONS - - - - - //{

Judas Swing ICT 01 [TradingFinder] New York Midnight Opening M15🔵 Introduction
The Judas Swing (ICT Judas Swing) is a trading strategy developed by Michael Huddleston, also known as Inner Circle Trader (ICT). This strategy allows traders to identify fake market moves designed by smart money to deceive retail traders.
By concentrating on market structure, price action patterns, and liquidity flows, traders can align their trades with institutional movements and avoid common pitfalls. It is particularly useful in FOREX and stock markets, helping traders identify optimal entry and exit points while minimizing risks from false breakouts.
In today's volatile markets, understanding how smart money manipulates price action across sessions such as Asia, London, and New York is essential for success. The ICT Judas Swing strategy helps traders avoid common pitfalls by focusing on key movements during the opening time and range of each session, identifying breakouts and false breakouts.
By utilizing various time frames and improving risk management, this strategy enables traders to make more informed decisions and take advantage of significant market movements.
In the Judas Swing strategy, for a bullish setup, the price first touches the high of the 15-minute range of New York midnight and then the low. After that, the price returns upward, breaks the high, and if there’s a candlestick confirmation during the pullback, a buy signal is generated.
bearish setup, the price first touches the low of the range, then the high. With the price returning downward and breaking the low, if there’s a candlestick confirmation during the pullback to the low, a sell signal is generated.
🔵 How to Use
To effectively implement the Judas Swing strategy (ICT Judas Swing) in trading, traders must first identify the price range of the 15-minute window following New York midnight. This range, consisting of highs and lows, sets the stage for the upcoming movements in the London and New York sessions.
🟣 Bullish Setup
For a bullish setup, the price first moves to touch the high of the range, then the low, before returning upward to break the high. Following this, a pullback occurs, and if a valid candlestick confirmation (such as a reversal pattern) is observed, a buy signal is generated. This confirmation could indicate the presence of smart money supporting the bullish movement.
🟣 Bearish Setup
For a bearish setup, the process is the reverse. The price first touches the low of the range, then the high. Afterward, the price moves downward again and breaks the low. A pullback follows to the broken low, and if a bearish candlestick confirmation is seen, a sell signal is generated. This confirmation signals the continuation of the downward price movement.
Using the Judas Swing strategy enables traders to avoid fake breakouts and focus on strong market confirmations. The strategy is versatile, applying to FOREX, stocks, and other financial instruments, offering optimal trading opportunities through market structure analysis and time frame synchronization.
To execute this strategy successfully, traders must combine it with effective risk management techniques such as setting appropriate stop losses and employing optimal risk-to-reward ratios. While the Judas Swing is a powerful tool for predicting price movements, traders should remember that no strategy is entirely risk-free. Proper capital management remains a critical element of long-term success.
By mastering the ICT Judas Swing strategy, traders can better identify entry and exit points and avoid common traps from fake market movements, ultimately improving their trading performance.

DISCLAIMER
This indicator is not financial advice, it can only help traders make better decisions. There are many factors and uncertainties that can affect the outcome of any endeavor, and no one can guarantee or predict with certainty what will occur. Therefore, one should always exercise caution and judgment when making decisions based on past performance.
Price Action UltimateThe Price Action Ultimate indicator is an innovative tool designed to provide traders with a comprehensive view of price action based on either volume or touches. By default, the indicator displays touches, offering a unique perspective on price levels that have been frequently interacted with by the market.
At its core, the indicator divides the price range of a specified lookback period into a number of rows (default 25). For each row, it calculates either the volume traded or the number of times the price touched that level. This data is then visualized in two ways: as a histogram and as horizontal lines on the chart.
The histogram, displayed on the right side of the chart, represents the distribution of touches (or volume) across different price levels. Each bar in the histogram shows the number of touches and the percentage of total touches for that price level. The color of the bars ranges from a user-defined low activity color to a high activity color, providing a quick visual reference for the most active price levels.
The horizontal lines drawn across the chart represent the most significant levels based on touches (or volume). By default, the indicator displays the top 3 levels, but this can be adjusted. The thickness of these lines corresponds to the relative importance of each level - thicker lines indicate more touches or higher volume. This feature allows traders to quickly identify key support and resistance levels based on historical price action.
One of the most innovative aspects of this indicator is the option to fade older levels over time. When enabled, this feature gradually increases the transparency of lines as they age, with newer levels appearing more prominently. This helps traders focus on the most recent and relevant price action while still maintaining awareness of older, potentially significant levels.
The indicator offers flexibility in its display options. Users can choose to show levels based on volume, touches, or both. This allows traders to compare and contrast different perspectives on price action. Additionally, the indicator includes options to display a volume profile and a background fill for the analysis range, further enhancing its visual appeal and informational content.
What makes this indicator particularly valuable is its ability to provide a clear, uncluttered view of key price levels without relying on complex calculations or multiple indicators. It distills price action down to its essence - where price has spent the most time or where the most trading activity has occurred. This can be incredibly useful for identifying potential support and resistance levels, areas of consolidation, or possible breakout points.
For traders focused on price action strategies, this indicator offers a powerful tool to enhance their analysis. It provides a data-driven approach to identifying significant price levels, which can be used to inform entry and exit decisions, set stop losses, or anticipate potential market reactions.
This indicator is a tool to aid in market analysis and should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions. Always combine multiple forms of analysis and practice proper risk management when trading. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Relative Strength Price Oscillator Indicator (RS PPO)Percentage Price Oscillator (PPO)
The Percentage Price Oscillator (PPO) is a momentum oscillator that measures the difference between two moving averages as a percentage of the larger moving average. As with its cousin, MACD, the Percentage Price Oscillator is shown with a signal line, a histogram and a centerline. Signals are generated with signal line crossovers, centerline crossovers, and divergences.
PPO readings are not subject to the price level of the security and the PPO values for different securities can be compared, regardless of the price of the security.
Relative Strength (RS)
Relative strength is a strategy used in momentum investing and focuses on investing in stocks or other securities that have performed well relative to the market as a whole or to a relevant benchmark.

Volatility Gaussian Bands [BigBeluga]The Volatility Gaussian Bands indicator is a cutting-edge tool designed to analyze market trends and volatility with high precision. By applying a Gaussian filter to smooth price data and implementing dynamic bands based on market volatility, this indicator provides clear signals for trend direction, strength, and potential reversals. With updated volatility calculations, it enhances the accuracy of trend detection, making it a powerful addition to any trader's toolkit.
⮁ KEY FEATURES & USAGE
● Gaussian Filter Trend Bands:
The Gaussian Filter forms the foundation of this indicator by smoothing price data to reveal the underlying trend. The trend is visualized through upper and lower bands that adjust dynamically based on market volatility. These bands provide clear visual cues for traders: a crossover above the upper band indicates a potential uptrend, while a cross below the lower band signals a potential downtrend. This feature allows traders to identify trends with greater accuracy and act accordingly.
● Dynamic Trend Strength Gauges:
The indicator includes trend strength gauges positioned at the top and bottom of the chart. These gauges dynamically measure the strength of the uptrend and downtrend, based on the middle Gaussian line. Even if the trend is downward, a rising midline will cause the upward trend strength gauge to show an increase, offering a nuanced view of the market’s momentum.
Weakening of the trend:
● Fast Trend Change Indicators:
Triangles with a "+" symbol appear on the chart to signal rapid changes in trend direction. These indicators are particularly useful when the trend changes swiftly while the midline continues to grow in its previous direction. For instance, during a downtrend, if the trend suddenly shifts upward while the midline is still declining, a triangle with a "+" will indicate this quick reversal. This feature is crucial for traders looking to capitalize on rapid market movements.
● Retest Signals:
Retest signals, displayed as triangles, highlight potential areas where the price may retest the Gaussian line during a trend. These signals provide an additional layer of analysis, helping traders confirm trend continuations or identify possible reversals. The retest signals can be customized based on the trader’s preferences.
⮁ CUSTOMIZATION
● Length Adjustment:
The length of the Gaussian filter can be customized to control the sensitivity of trend detection. Shorter lengths make the indicator more responsive, while longer lengths offer a smoother, more stable trend line.
● Volatility Calculation Mode:
Traders can select from different modes (AVG, MEDIAN, MODE) to calculate the Gaussian filter, allowing for flexibility in how trends are detected and analyzed.
● Retest Signals Toggle:
Enable or disable the retest signals based on your trading strategy. This toggle allows traders to choose whether they want these additional signals to appear on the chart, providing more control over the information displayed during their analysis.
⮁ CONCLUSION
The Volatility Gaussian Bands indicator is a versatile and powerful tool for traders focused on trend and volatility analysis. By combining Gaussian-filtered trend lines with dynamic volatility bands, trend strength gauges, and rapid trend change indicators, this tool provides a comprehensive view of market conditions. Whether you are following established trends or looking to catch early reversals, the Volatility Gaussian Bands offers the precision and adaptability needed to enhance your trading strategy.
