Timeframe Continuity BarsTimeframe Continuity Bars is a script that is extremely simple for good reason
So please, do not remove this post because it seems 'simple'
Now that's over with. Lets dive in to understand what timeframe continuity IS and what this indicator does.
Timeframe continuity is defined by 4 or more timeframes and it is the relationship of the last price traded to those 4 opening prices. Standard timeframe continuity would be using the M,W,D,60min timeframes.
The reason we use MTF analysis is because of the truth of what price is and how it works.
Price movement is SOLELY caused due to aggressive buying / selling. Some may attempt to refute this however at the end of the day. If the price is at 100.00 it is because a buyer is willing to buy there and a seller is willing to sell there. If those market participants did not want to buy or sell at 100.00 price would go up or down to meet the more aggressive participant.
So what does this look like you may ask...
If an aggressive buyer takes the offer we will see prices go up if they were willing to pay more than the last guy who took the offer.
So price may go from 100.00 to 100.01 because you decided to invest in that stock that day at that time with a market order
This same thing occurs when every other institution creates, adds, reduces, or exits a position. They have to buy or sell and they have to either do it aggressively or do it passively by sitting on the bid / ask and waiting.
So since this is true, we know that the relationship to the opening price is extremely important. This is because if price is above it's open that means buyers were willing to take the offer and buy at higher prices. If price is below it's open it means that sellers were willing to sell at the bid and they sold at lower prices.
So any candlestick chart is simply an aggregation of this aggressive buying/selling that is taking place at all times.
By using the timeframe continuity bars indicator we can measure the distance from the current open across 4 or more timeframes.
By doing this we can identify monthly participation groups, weekly participation groups, daily participation groups, and 60min participation groups.
When all those groups align green or red this is considered full timeframe continuity. Where the monthly weekly daily 60min groups are all taking the offer and buying, or all selling at the bid!
When this aligns this is when price is for CERTAIN going in one direction.
However, It is subject to change every 60 minutes as the 60min determines if those monthly weekly daily buyers are present RIGHT NOW.
So if the 60min changes we go into direct conflict against the month/week/day groups.
If we see the 60min and day align we go into direct conflict against the month/week
if the 60min day and week are red we over-take the monthly group for control. At the time of the week day and 60 being red we have ZERO evidence of the previous monthly buyer/seller that was present.
Now that you understand a little bit about continuity.. Check it out on the chart!
P.S Here is some tips
1) it is not about just all timeframes aligning, we want to see long green / red bars!
2) The opens reset on a cyclical basis. Each day, each week, each month... When the new timeframes open we will see timeframes have the SAME open. When the opens are the same price we have LESS evidence versus having all opens seperate.
3) Investors can use the Y Q M W as their 4 timeframes to see when institutional buying is occurring [go do a case study on AMEX:GLD and AMEX:SLV weekly timeframe with these settings]
4) You need to add 4 separate indicators and change the timeframes. It is ideal to then save this layout!
5) The best way to do price analysis is using #TheStrat across all 4 timeframes instead of one timeframe with this indicator. This is soley a tool we use to show changing of control between participation groups!

Filtered Fractals (2-Stage + Alerts)Filtered Fractals
Overview
This indicator is an advanced evolution of the classic Fractal logic (like the WICK.ED or Bill Williams models). Standard fractals are often "noisy," marking every minor local peak or trough, which can lead to false signals in volatile markets.
This script solves the "noise" problem by introducing a Dual-Stage Filtering Process. Instead of displaying every fractal, it treats them as "candidates" and only confirms those that represent a dominant extremum relative to their neighboring fractals.
How It Works
The script operates in two distinct stages to ensure only the most significant structural pivot points are plotted:
Stage 1: Detection
The script identifies "Raw Fractals" based on your preferred sensitivity (Left/Right bars). By default, it uses a 5-bar lookback/lookforward, but these remain hidden from the chart initially.
Stage 2: Sliding Window Competition
The script monitors a rolling sequence of the last three identified fractals. It compares their prices to find the "True Extremum":
For Highs , it compares the 3 most recent fractal peaks.
For Lows , it compares the 3 most recent fractal troughs.
The Point System: Every time a fractal is the "winner" (the highest high or lowest low) within its 3-fractal window, it receives a confirmation point.
The Priority Rule: In cases where two fractals have the exact same price, the script gives priority to the earlier one (the "left" peak), reducing late entries.
Visual Confirmation
A fractal is only plotted on your chart once it achieves two confirmations . This means it has proven to be a significant price extreme compared to both its predecessor and its successor.
Key Features
Noise Reduction: Eliminates "crowded" fractals, leaving only the structural backbone of the trend.
Non-Repainting Logic: The script only processes confirmed closed bars. The current developing candle will never trigger a false fractal or a premature alert.
Smart Alerts: Built-in alert() functionality. You can set a single alert to notify you the exact moment a Bullish or Bearish fractal is confirmed.
Customizable Sensitivity: Adjust the Left/Right Bars in the settings to fit your specific timeframe (e.g., higher values for macro trends, lower for scalping).
How to use
Support/Resistance: Use these filtered fractals to draw more reliable S/R zones.
Stop Loss Placement: Ideal for trailing stops behind truly significant swing points.
Trend Confirmation: A series of higher-high filtered fractals provides a much cleaner view of an uptrend than standard indicators.
Reversal RadarReversal Radar
Unified exhaustion detection across 5 distinct reversal patterns — see confluence at a glance.
What It Does
Reversal Radar consolidates 5 independent reversal detection algorithms into a single indicator with a stacked diamond visualization. When any detector fires, you see a vertical stack of diamonds — colored diamonds show which specific patterns triggered, ghost (white) diamonds show which didn't.
More colored diamonds = stronger confluence = higher conviction setup.
The 5 Detectors
Diamond Detector What It Finds
🔴 Red Liquidity Trap Pivot reversal with wick rejection, liquidity sweep, and momentum trap (fading trapped traders)
🟠 Orange Structural Divergence Pivot at new extreme with RSI divergence against major structure
🔵 Light Blue Band Rejection Full candle body outside Bollinger Bands with rejection wick
🟢 Green Panic Snap 5-bar waterfall (consecutive lower lows) snapping back during VIX spike — Long only
🟣 Purple Capitulation Engulf Bullish engulfing at lower BB with steep band decline during elevated VIX — Long only
How To Read It
Long Signals (below bar): 5-diamond stack
• Bottom to top: Liquidity Trap → Structural Divergence → Band Rejection → Panic Snap → Capitulation Engulf
Short Signals (above bar): 3-diamond stack
• Bottom to top: Band Rejection → Structural Divergence → Liquidity Trap
Ghost diamonds (faded white) = that detector did NOT fire Colored diamonds = that detector fired
Colors are consistent between long and short — same detector = same color regardless of direction.
Key Features
• Confluence visualization — instantly see how many independent patterns agree
• No parameter tweaking — all detector settings are pre-tuned and hardcoded
• VIX-aware — the two "capitulation" detectors (Panic Snap, Capitulation Engulf) only fire during elevated VIX conditions
• Session filtering — built-in BOD/EOD blocking to avoid noisy open/close periods
• MTF Bias Table — optional multi-timeframe trend bias display (5m/15m/1H/4H/D)
• Detector Legend — on-chart reference showing what each color means (adjustable size and position)
• Bollinger Bands — optional BB overlay display
Settings
Module Toggles — Enable/disable each of the 5 detectors independently:
• Enable Liquidity Trap
• Enable Structural Divergence
• Enable Band Rejection
• Enable Panic Snap (Long Only)
• Enable Capitulation Engulf (Long Only)
Session Blocking — Define trading session and minutes to block at open/close
Display — Toggle Bollinger Bands, MTF Bias Table position
Legend — Toggle detector legend, adjust position and text size (tiny/small/normal)
Best Used For
• Identifying high-probability reversal zones where multiple exhaustion signatures align
• Filtering out weak signals (single detector) vs strong setups (2-3+ detectors)
• Spotting capitulation bottoms during VIX spikes (Panic Snap + Capitulation Engulf)
• Mean reversion plays at Bollinger Band extremes
Notes
• This indicator is designed for intraday reversal trading on liquid instruments (SPY, QQQ, ES, NQ, etc.)
• The VIX-gated detectors (Panic Snap, Capitulation Engulf) are long-only by design — they're specifically tuned for capitulation bottoms
• Works best on 3m-15m timeframes
• All detector parameters are locked to tested values — this is intentional to keep the indicator simple and consistent
"When multiple exhaustion patterns converge, the market is telling you something."

SmartVol SuperTrend | OquantOverview
The SmartVol SuperTrend is an evolution of the traditional SuperTrend indicator. While the standard SuperTrend uses Average True Range (ATR) to calculate volatility bands, this version utilizes Volume-Weighted Standard Deviation (VWSD).
By integrating volume into the volatility calculation, the indicator attempts to filter out "quiet" price movements and reacts more dynamically to price action supported by high trading activity.
How It Works
The script follows a multi-step process to define trend direction:
Smoothing: It applies a 5-period EMA to the source price to reduce minor noise before calculating the bands.
Volume-Weighted Volatility: Instead of a simple Standard Deviation, the script uses a custom volume standard deviation function. It measures the dispersion of price around its Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA), weighting each price point's contribution by the volume of that bar.
Recursive Band Logic: Like the classic SuperTrend, the bands are "locked" in place. The lower band can only move up, and the upper band can only move down, until price closes on the opposite side, triggering a trend flip.
Visuals: The script highlights the trend by coloring the candles and the space between the price and the trend line, providing a clear visual of the current market bias.
Usefulness
By using Volume-Weighted Standard Deviation, this indicator accounts for real market activity. Consequently, it expands its bands more aggressively during high-volume breakouts while dampening its reaction to price moves when volume fades, potentially offering more robust band levels anchored to true market participation.
How to Use
Trend Identification: When the line is green and below price, the trend is bullish. When the line is purple and above price, the trend is bearish.
Factor Adjustment: Increase the Factor (default 1.8) to reduce sensitivity and avoid whipsaws in volatile markets. Decrease it for tighter tracking.
EMA Length: Adjust the EMA length to change how much price smoothing is applied before the trend calculation.
Note on Signals
This indicator is designed for trend-following. Like all lagging indicators, it performs best in trending markets and may produce false signals during sideways consolidation.
Settings
Source: The price source used for calculations (default: Close).
EMA Length: The lookback for the initial price smoothing (default: 5).
VWSD Length: The period used to calculate the volume-weighted volatility (default: 30).
Factor: The multiplier applied to the VWSD to determine the distance of the bands (default 1.8).
⚠️ Disclaimer: This indicator is intended for educational and informational purposes only. Trading involves risk, and past performance does not guarantee future results. Always test and evaluate indicators/strategies before applying them in live markets. Use at your own risk.
MAD Supertrend [Alpha Extract]A sophisticated SuperTrend implementation that replaces traditional ATR calculations with Mean Absolute Deviation methodology for adaptive volatility measurement and band construction. Utilizing SMA baseline with MAD-based deviation bands and optional adaptive factor adjustments, this indicator delivers institutional-grade trend detection with strength-based filtering and dynamic visual feedback. The system's MAD approach provides superior noise reduction compared to ATR while maintaining responsiveness to genuine volatility changes, combined with momentum-based strength calculations for high-conviction signal generation.
🔶 Advanced MAD-Based Band Construction
Implements Mean Absolute Deviation calculation as volatility proxy, measuring absolute price deviations from mean and smoothing for stable band generation without ATR dependency. The system calculates SMA baseline, computes MAD from configurable lookback period, applies factor multipliers to create upper and lower bands, then implements classic SuperTrend ratcheting logic where bands only adjust when price violates previous levels or calculations warrant updates.
// Core MAD SuperTrend Framework
SMA_Value = ta.sma(src, SMA_Length)
Mean = ta.sma(src, MAD_Length)
Abs_Deviation = abs(src - Mean)
MAD_Value = ta.sma(Abs_Deviation, MAD_Length)
// Band Construction with Ratcheting
Upper_Band = SMA_Value + MAD_Factor * MAD_Value
Lower_Band = SMA_Value - MAD_Factor * MAD_Value
// Ratcheting logic prevents premature band adjustments
🔶 Adaptive Factor Adjustment Engine
Features optional adaptive multiplier system that modulates MAD factor based on normalized MAD magnitude relative to recent extremes, creating bands that automatically expand during high-volatility regimes and contract during consolidation. The system applies min-max normalization to MAD values over configurable lookback, multiplies by adaptation parameter, and adds to base factor for dynamic volatility sensitivity without manual recalibration.
🔶 Momentum-Based Strength Filter
Implements sophisticated strength calculation measuring price momentum relative to baseline divided by volatility-adjusted MAD bands, producing normalized 0-1 strength scores with exponential smoothing. The system calculates distance from SMA baseline, normalizes by MAD-derived band width, and applies configurable minimum threshold requiring sufficient momentum before trend signals activate, filtering weak or choppy market conditions.
🔶 SuperTrend Direction Logic
Utilizes classic SuperTrend methodology adapted for MAD bands where trend direction flips on opposite band violations with state persistence until confirmation. The system tracks whether price closes above upper band (bearish flip to bullish) or below lower band (bullish flip to bearish), maintains directional state until opposing violation occurs, and generates binary +1/-1 trend signals suitable for systematic position management.
🔶 Intelligent Candle Sticking System
Provides advanced line positioning option that anchors SuperTrend line to candle wicks or bodies rather than pure calculation values for enhanced visual clarity. The system supports two modes: Wick (positions at high/low extremes based on trend direction) and Body (constrains line between calculation and candle extremes), creating cleaner chart presentation while maintaining mathematical integrity of underlying signals.
🔶 Dynamic Gradient Visualization Framework
Implements color intensity modulation based on smoothed strength calculations, transitioning from muted to vivid hues as momentum conviction increases. The system applies gradient interpolation using strength ratio, creating visual feedback where strong trending moves display intense colors while weak or consolidating conditions show faded tones across trend line, channel bands, and candle coloring for immediate regime assessment.
🔶 MAD Channel Architecture
Features volatility-adjusted channel bands centered on baseline or candle-stuck line with configurable multiplier for support/resistance visualization. The system calculates upper and lower bounds using MAD values scaled by adaptive factors and channel multipliers, applies dynamic transparency based on trend strength, and creates filled regions that intensify during strong trends and fade during weak conditions.
🔶 Multi-Layer Glow Effect System
Provides sophisticated line rendering with triple-layer plot system creating glow effect through progressively wider and more transparent outer layers. The system plots core trend line at specified width with full color intensity, adds inner glow layer at +2 width with moderate transparency, and outer glow at +4 width with higher transparency, creating visual depth and emphasis without cluttering chart space.
🔶 Strength-Based State Management
Implements intelligent trend state logic requiring both directional signal and minimum strength threshold breach before confirming trend transitions. The system calculates raw SuperTrend direction, evaluates smoothed strength against configurable minimum, generates filtered trend state that can be bullish (+1), bearish (-1), or neutral (0), and maintains state persistence using hold logic that prevents oscillation during ambiguous conditions.
🔶 Comprehensive Alert Integration
Generates trend flip alerts when filtered state transitions from bearish to bullish or bullish to bearish with full confirmation requirements satisfied. The system detects state changes through comparison with previous bar, triggers single alert per transition rather than continuous notifications, and provides customizable message templates for automated trading system integration or manual notification preferences.
🔶 Performance Optimization Architecture
Utilizes efficient calculation methods with null value handling, nz() functions preventing errors during initialization bars, and optimized gradient calculations. The system includes intelligent state persistence minimizing recalculation overhead, streamlined MAD computation avoiding redundant mean calculations, and smooth visual updates maintaining consistent performance across extended historical periods.
This indicator delivers sophisticated SuperTrend analysis through Mean Absolute Deviation methodology providing superior statistical properties compared to traditional ATR-based approaches. MAD calculations offer more robust volatility measurement resistant to extreme outliers while maintaining sensitivity to genuine market regime changes. The system's adaptive factor adjustment, momentum-based strength filtering, and dynamic visual feedback make it essential for traders seeking reliable trend-following signals with reduced false breakouts during choppy conditions. The combination of MAD bands, candle-sticking options, gradient strength visualization, and comprehensive filtering creates institutional-grade trend detection suitable for systematic approaches across cryptocurrency, forex, and equity markets with clear entry/exit signals and comprehensive alert capabilities.
Liquidity Zones | NRP | ProjectSyndicate🏦 ProjectSyndicate Liquidity Zones 1.0 — Complete Documentation
Specifically built for: XAUUSD (Gold) 🥇, NQ 💻, ES 📈 and FX 💱 traders
✅Default settings: tuned to work well across multiple timeframes
Best sweet spot timeframes : M5 / M15 / M30 / H1 → consistently produces high-quality zones
________________________________________
🌍 Overview
ProjectSyndicate Liquidity Zones is a Pine Script v6 indicator built to identify stop-loss hunting zones and liquidity pockets—areas where price frequently sweeps retail stops and then reverses.
It automatically detects and draws zones where institutional flow often triggers liquidity before moving price in the opposite direction.
________________________________________
💧 What Are Liquidity Zones?
Liquidity zones are price levels where stop-loss orders cluster (often around swing highs/lows). Large players may push price into these levels to trigger stops (liquidity sweep) and then reverse.
Also known as:
• 🪤 Stop-loss hunting
• 🌊 Liquidity sweeps
• 🎯 Stop runs
________________________________________
🥇 Why Gold, NQ, ES & FX?
These markets often show repeatable liquidity behavior because of:
• 👥 Heavy participation and predictable stop placement
• 🏛️ Strong institutional activity and order flow
• ⚡ Volatility that enables fast “sweep & reverse” moves
• 📍 Clear technical levels where stops tend to cluster
________________________________________
⚙️ How It Works (3 Detection Engines)
1) 🔺 Pivot-Based Detection
Finds swing highs/lows using fractal pivots—natural stop placement zones.
2) 🕯️ Wick Trap Detection
Flags candles with dominant wicks (long rejection shadows), suggesting stops were hit then price snapped back.
3) 📊 Volume Spike Detection
Marks extremes where volume is elevated (local highs/lows). High volume at extremes often signals liquidity being triggered.

Smart Range ProfilerSmart Market Structure Viewer: Gaps, Swings & Dealing Ranges
Overview
This script is a comprehensive technical analysis viewer designed to provide a clear and objective visualization of market structure. By mapping liquidity gaps, multi-tier swing points, and dynamic dealing ranges, it helps traders identify key institutional levels and price action context without the clutter of predictive signals.
Key Features
1. Gap Analysis (FVG & Breakaway)
The tool identifies and tracks price imbalances to help visualize market inefficiency:
Fair Value Gaps (FVG): Highlights standard price imbalances.
Breakaway Gaps: Specifically marks gaps where the candle close remains outside the previous range, indicating strong directional commitment.
Sophisticated Mitigation: Users can choose how gaps are cleared from the chart (e.g., when price touches, leaves, or completely covers the gap), ensuring only relevant imbalances are displayed.
2. Hierarchical Swing Points
To help distinguish between minor fluctuations and major trend shifts, the viewer categorizes market structure into three hierarchical levels:
Short-Term (ST): Localized swing points identified in relation to gap formations.
Intermediate-Term (IT): Structural points derived from the relationship between short-term swings.
Long-Term (LT): High-level structural points that define the broader market framework.
3. Dynamic Dealing Range & Profiling
The script calculates and projects the current "Dealing Range" based on the selected structural hierarchy (ST, IT, or LT).
Range Geometry: Displays the Range Top, Range Bottom, and the Equilibrium (50%) level.
MTP (Most Traded Price): A volume-based profile indicating the price level with the highest trading activity within the current range.
MTS (Most Time Spent): A time-based profile highlighting the price level where the market spent the most duration.
How to use this Viewer
Structural Context: Use the multi-tier swings to identify the current market phase (Bullish/Bearish) and seniority of the trend.
Imbalance Tracking: Monitor how price interacts with Fair Value and Breakaway gaps to gauge the strength of a move.
Premium vs. Discount: Utilize the Dealing Range Equilibrium in conjunction with MTP/MTS levels to identify where price sits relative to its value distribution.
Reversal Detection v3.0 - Real-Time Pro (Non-Repainting)═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
REVERSAL DETECTION PRO v3.0 - NON-REPAINTING
Adaptive Zigzag Reversal Detection for Scalpers & Day Traders
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
CHART EXAMPLE
The indicator is shown running on MNQ1! (Micro E-mini Nasdaq-100
futures) on a 2-minute chart. The indicator works on all symbols
and timeframes, but is optimized for futures scalping on 1-5
minute charts.
WHY I BUILT THIS
Most reversal indicators out there repaint like crazy, flipping
signals after the fact and making you second-guess every trade.
Plus they're too noisy in choppy markets or way too laggy in
trends, so I kept missing entries or getting faked out. I wanted
something solid that sticks to its guns without repainting and
adapts to volatility without me tweaking it every 5 minutes.
This indicator solves those problems by using an adaptive zigzag
algorithm that adjusts to market volatility automatically. Once a
reversal signal appears, it's locked in place - no repainting, no
disappearing signals. The ATR-based sensitivity system means it
works across different market conditions without constant adjustment.
WHAT YOU'LL SEE ON YOUR CHART
When you add this indicator, here's what shows up:
- GREEN LABELS with "REVERSAL" and price level = Bullish reversal
confirmed at swing low
- RED LABELS with "REVERSAL" and price level = Bearish reversal
confirmed at swing high
- HORIZONTAL LINES extending from each reversal = Reference for
stops and targets
- PREVIEW LABELS (lighter colors) = Potential reversals forming in
real-time (optional)
- CANDLE COLORS: Green for bullish trends, red for bearish, purple
for neutral
- PURPLE BOXES = Supply/demand zones marking reversal areas
- INFO TABLE (top corner) = Shows sensitivity, current ATR,
threshold, and trend status
The indicator uses three EMAs (9/14/21 periods) to determine trend
direction, which drives the candle coloring system. This helps you
see whether you're in a bullish, bearish, or choppy market at a
glance.
HOW IT WORKS
The core reversal detection uses a zigzag calculation that tracks
price swings and identifies reversals when price moves by a
dynamically calculated threshold. The reversal amount is determined
by taking the maximum of three values:
1. Percentage-based threshold (adjusts to instrument price level)
2. Absolute price movement threshold (minimum move required)
3. ATR-based threshold (adapts to current volatility)
This multi-factor approach ensures the indicator works consistently
across different assets and market conditions. The non-repainting
mechanism uses confirmed bar data - once a pivot is detected at a
swing high or low, the label and horizontal line are permanently
locked at that exact wick price.
Five sensitivity presets automatically adjust the ATR multiplier:
- Very High (0.8x ATR) = More signals, captures small moves
- High (1.2x ATR) = Active trading
- Medium (2.0x ATR) = Balanced (default)
- Low (2.8x ATR) = Filters noise
- Very Low (3.5x ATR) = Only major reversals
Advanced users can select "Custom" to manually tune ATR multiplier,
percentage threshold, and calculation method.
HOW I USE IT
I mainly trade /MNQ futures on 1-5 minute charts for scalping -
that's my bread and butter. The indicator works decent on other
stuff like stocks or forex too, but I dial sensitivity up for
faster scalps during volatile sessions.
My typical trade setup:
1. Wait for a confirmed REVERSAL label (green for long, red for
short)
2. Check that it lines up with the EMA trend color (bullish candles
for longs, bearish for shorts)
3. If it's a "strong" signal where the reversal hits during a trend
flip, that's my green light
4. Quick check for nearby supply/demand zones to avoid fighting
them
5. Enter with a tight stop below/above the reversal line
6. Target 1:1 or 2:1 risk/reward, usually out in 5-10 minutes
The horizontal lines from each reversal give me logical stop
placement levels, and the supply/demand zones help identify
potential profit targets or areas to avoid.
SETTINGS & CUSTOMIZATION
Signal Modes:
- Confirmed Only = Most reliable, only shows locked-in signals
(recommended)
- Confirmed + Preview = Shows both confirmed and potential signals
- Preview Only = For testing/development
Sensitivity Presets:
Start with "Medium" and adjust based on your trading style:
- Scalping volatile sessions = "High" or "Very High"
- Day trading = "Medium"
- Swing trading = "Low" or "Very Low"
Display Options:
- Choose candle display type (Solid, Trend, Bars, Volume, None)
- Show/hide supply/demand zones
- Adjust zone box extension length
- Customize info table position and size
- Control maximum lines displayed
Alert System:
- Bullish/Bearish reversal alerts
- EMA trend change alerts
- Strong signal alerts (reversal + trend alignment)
- "Any reversal" catch-all alert
IMPORTANT - READ THIS FIRST
Don't rely on this indicator alone. Always pair it with your own
price action or volume confirmation, because no indicator is
perfect. Avoid cranking sensitivity too high in ranging markets or
you'll get whipped. Test on demo first, and remember it's
non-repainting so signals are final, but preview mode can tease
you into early entries if you're not patient.
Risk management is key - don't size up just because a signal looks
good. This indicator helps identify potential reversals, but YOU
still need to manage your trades, set proper stops, and control
position size based on your account risk tolerance.
WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT
Unlike simple pivot indicators or manual support/resistance drawing:
- Adapts automatically to volatility changes (ATR-based)
- Never repaints - signals lock in place permanently
- Reversal detection works with trend context (EMAs)
- Supply/demand zones mark key structural levels
- One-click sensitivity adjustment via presets
- Works across multiple timeframes and instruments
The zigzag reversal algorithm adapts to volatility using ATR, while
the EMA system provides trend context so you're not trading
reversals blindly against the trend. The supply/demand zones help
identify key levels where price has reversed before. It's built
specifically for active traders who need reliable, non-repainting
signals.
BEST PRACTICES
✅ DO:
- Start with "Medium" sensitivity on demo account
- Wait for confirmed signals before entering
- Use horizontal lines for stop placement
- Check trend context (candle colors) before trading reversals
- Combine with volume analysis or price action
- Test different sensitivity settings for your instrument
❌ DON'T:
- Trade every signal blindly without context
- Use "Very High" sensitivity in choppy/ranging markets
- Ignore the trend direction (candle colors)
- Enter on preview labels (they can disappear)
- Skip proper risk management
- Overtrade just because signals appear

SMC Pro : OB Longues + FVGHow does this indicator work?
Fair Value Gaps (FVG): It identifies price imbalances (gaps between the wick of candle 1 and candle 3). They appear as small, light-colored rectangles.
Order Blocks (OB): It marks "Smart Money" candles that precede a strong impulse. These areas are extended to the right because they often act as future support or resistance.
Signals (BUY/SELL): The indicator displays a signal when it detects a confluence (for example, a bullish OB appearing right after an FVG).
Some friendly trading tips:
Timeframe: This indicator works best on higher timeframes (15m, 1h, 4h) to avoid market "noise."
Confirmation: Don't take a "BUY" signal on its own. Check if the overall trend (on a higher timeframe) is also bullish.
Risk management: Always place your Stop Loss just below the identified Order Block.
eXquTrading FIB (Auto)eXquTrading FIB (Auto) — EMA144/169 Cloud + 8X Score + Auto Fibonacci (Single Set)

Volatility Radar Volatility Radar
A comprehensive VIX-based dashboard for volatility regime analysis and trade bias confirmation. Designed for options traders who use VIX levels to inform directional bias and identify potential traps in market positioning.
Dashboard Columns
1. 10-Min Rule
Displays your current directional bias based on VIX zone positioning with time-based confirmation.
CALLS (Green): VIX is below the Bullish Chop level — conditions favor call buying / bullish stock positioning
PUTS (Red): VIX is above the Bearish Chop level — conditions favor put buying / bearish stock positioning
CHOP (Yellow): VIX is between the two chop levels — no clear directional edge
Confirmation Logic: The bias must hold for a configurable period (default: 10 minutes) before showing "✓ CONFIRMED". A countdown timer shows time remaining until confirmation. High-velocity moves (spikes or crushes) trigger immediate confirmation. If VIX touches a chop boundary, the timer resets.
2. VIX Levels
Displays four user-configurable VIX thresholds that define the volatility regime zones:
Bearish (Red): Extreme fear — VIX at or above this level signals high volatility / bearish stock conditions
Resist (Orange): Upper chop boundary — resistance level for VIX
Support (Yellow): Lower chop boundary — support level for VIX
Bullish (Green): Low fear — VIX at or below this level signals low volatility / bullish stock conditions
The current zone is highlighted based on where VIX is trading relative to these levels.
3. Options Flow
Displays net options flow sentiment to gauge market positioning. Supports both simulated and real-time OPRA data.
Simulated Mode (Default):
Net Val: Shows simulated flow based on candle direction (bullish candle = positive, bearish = negative) multiplied by volume
Sentiment: BULLISH, BEARISH, or NEUTRAL based on flow direction
- Header displays "Options Flow (Sim)"
Real-Time OPRA Mode:
Vol: Shows actual call and put volumes summed across strikes near ATM (e.g., "C:12.5K P:8.2K")
Sentiment: BULLISH if call volume > put volume, BEARISH if puts dominate
- Header displays "Options Flow 📡"
- Net flow calculated as: `Total Call Volume - Total Put Volume`
⚠️ OPRA Data Requirement
Real-time mode requires an active OPRA data subscription in TradingView. Without this subscription, the options volume data will not populate. Enable "Use Real-Time OPRA Data" in settings and configure the required parameters (see Settings section below).
4. Velocity
Monitors the speed of VIX movement to detect rapid regime changes.
STABLE (Gray): Normal VIX movement
⚡ SPIKE (Red): VIX increased by more than the velocity threshold (default: 0.40 points) over the last 5 bars — rapid fear increase
⚡ CRUSH (Green): VIX decreased by more than the velocity threshold over the last 5 bars — rapid fear decrease
Calculation: `VIX - VIX ` (current VIX minus VIX from 5 bars ago)
5. Trap Detect
Identifies potential positioning traps by comparing VIX regime with options flow direction.
CLEAN (Gray): No divergence detected — flow aligns with VIX regime
⚠️ TRAP (Orange): High VIX + Bullish Flow — warns of potential bull trap; smart money may be selling into retail call buying during elevated fear
🛡️ ABSORB (Yellow): Low VIX + Bearish Flow — institutional absorption pattern; put buying during low VIX may indicate smart money hedging or accumulation
Horizontal Level Lines
Four horizontal lines are automatically drawn on the chart at your configured VIX levels:
1. Green line: Bullish level
2. Yellow line: Bullish Chop (Support) level
3. Orange line: Bearish Chop (Resist) level
4. Red line: Bearish level
Settings
Display Settings
Table Position: Choose where the dashboard appears on your chart
Text Size: Tiny, Small, or Normal
Table Background / Transparency: Customize dashboard appearance
10-Minute Rule
Confirmation Minutes: Time required in a zone before bias is confirmed (default: 10)
Velocity Threshold: Points per 5-bar period to trigger spike/crush detection (default: 0.40)
VIX Levels
Bullish (Green): Low volatility threshold (default: 14)
Bullish Chop (Yellow): Lower chop boundary (default: 16)
Bearish Chop (Orange): Upper chop boundary (default: 20)
Bearish (Red): High volatility threshold (default: 25)
Options Flow Data
Use Real-Time OPRA Data: Toggle between simulated and real-time options data (default: off)
Ticker Override: Manual ticker symbol. Leave blank to auto-detect from chart. Examples: SPY, QQQ, SPXW, NDX. Note: SPX auto-converts to SPXW for options symbols.
Center/Anchor Price: Required for OPRA mode. Enter the current underlying price (e.g., 590 for SPY, 5900 for SPX). This determines the ATM strike for data fetching.
Expiry Date (YYMMDD): Options expiration date in YYMMDD format (e.g., 260117 for Jan 17, 2026). Leave blank to use today's date (0DTE).
Strikes Above/Below ATM: Number of strikes to scan on each side of center price (1-10, default: 5). Higher values capture more flow data but use more API calls.
Strike Step Auto-Detection:
- SPX/SPXW, NDX: $5 strikes
- VIX: $0.50 strikes
- SPY, QQQ, and others: $1 strikes
What's New in This Release
1. Real-Time OPRA Options Flow: New toggle to switch between simulated and real-time options data. When enabled with an OPRA subscription, fetches actual call/put volumes across up to 11 strikes around ATM.
2. Configurable Options Parameters: New settings for ticker override, center price, expiry date, and strike range for precise options data targeting.
3. Horizontal Level Lines: VIX threshold levels are now drawn directly on the chart as colored horizontal lines for quick visual reference
4. Reordered Settings: VIX level inputs now flow logically from Bullish to Bearish
Best Practices
1. Use on VIX chart: Apply this indicator directly to a VIX chart (CBOE:VIX) for best results
2. Wait for confirmation: Don't act on bias until the 10-minute rule confirms
3. Respect velocity signals: Spikes and crushes can indicate regime changes before price confirms
4. Watch for traps: Divergence between flow and VIX regime often precedes reversals
5. Customize your levels: Adjust VIX thresholds based on current market conditions and your trading style
6. OPRA Setup: If using real-time options data, ensure you:
- Have an active OPRA subscription in TradingView
- Set the correct Center/Anchor Price for the underlying you're tracking
- Update the expiry date if trading non-0DTE options
- Match the ticker to your target (SPY for SPY options, leave blank on VIX chart for VIX options)
Disclaimer
This indicator is for educational and informational purposes only. It is not financial advice. Options flow data is simulated by default; real-time OPRA data requires a separate TradingView subscription. Always do your own research and manage risk appropriately.
Reversal Detection v3.0 - Real-Time Pro (Non-Repainting)═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
REVERSAL DETECTION PRO v3.0 - NON-REPAINTING
Adaptive Zigzag Reversal Detection for Scalpers & Day Traders
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
WHY I BUILT THIS
Most reversal indicators out there repaint like crazy, flipping signals after the fact and making you second-guess every trade. Plus they're too noisy in choppy markets or way too laggy in trends, so I kept missing entries or getting faked out. I wanted something solid that sticks to its guns without repainting and adapts to volatility without me tweaking it every 5 minutes.
This indicator solves those problems by using an adaptive zigzag algorithm that adjusts to market volatility automatically. Once a reversal signal appears, it's locked in place - no repainting, no disappearing signals. The ATR-based sensitivity system means it works across different market conditions without constant adjustment.
WHAT YOU'LL SEE ON YOUR CHART
When you add this indicator, here's what shows up:
- GREEN LABELS with "REVERSAL" and price level = Bullish reversal confirmed at swing low
- RED LABELS with "REVERSAL" and price level = Bearish reversal confirmed at swing high
- HORIZONTAL LINES extending from each reversal = Reference for stops and targets
- PREVIEW LABELS (lighter colors) = Potential reversals forming in real-time (optional)
- CANDLE COLORS: Green for bullish trends, red for bearish, purple for neutral
- PURPLE BOXES = Supply/demand zones marking reversal areas
- INFO TABLE (top corner) = Shows sensitivity, current ATR, threshold, and trend status
The indicator uses three EMAs (9/14/21 periods) to determine trend direction, which drives the candle coloring system. This helps you see whether you're in a bullish, bearish, or choppy market at a glance.

Accumulation/Distribution Oscillator [MarkitTick]💡 This script presents a statistically normalized evolution of the classic Accumulation/Distribution (A/D) indicator, designed to transform unbounded volume flow into a bounded, actionable oscillator. By integrating Relative Volume (RVOL) weighting and Z-Score standardization, this tool isolates genuine institutional buying and selling pressure from market noise, offering a clear view of volume momentum regimes.
✨ Originality and Utility
The standard Accumulation/Distribution line is a cumulative total of volume flow, which often results in an unbounded line that drifts indefinitely with price trends. This makes it difficult for traders to identify overextended conditions or specific turning points.
This script solves that problem through a three-stage quantitative process:
Smart Volume Weighting: Instead of treating all volume equally, this indicator amplifies the impact of high-volume nodes using a Relative Volume (RVOL) filter. This ensures that significant institutional activity carries more weight than low-liquidity chopping.
Detrending: It subtracts a smoothed average (using ALMA, EMA, or others) from the raw A/D line to create a raw oscillator.
Normalization: Finally, it applies a Z-Score calculation to normalize the data. This bounds the oscillator around a zero mean, allowing for the application of Bollinger Bands to detect statistical extremes (2 or 3 standard deviations).
🔬 Methodology and Concepts
The calculation logic follows a strict quantitative pipeline:
● Money Flow Multiplier (MFM)
The core engine is the classic MFM calculation, which determines the location of the Close relative to the High-Low range. A Close near the High results in +1, while a Close near the Low results in -1.
● Advanced Volume Filtering
Before accumulation, the volume is processed through two filters:
RVOL Multiplier: If the current bar's volume exceeds its simple moving average (`rvol_len`), the volume is multiplied by a user-defined factor (`rvol_mult`). This emphasizes breakout candles.
Candle Strength (Optional): If enabled, weight is increased based on how close the price closes to the absolute high or low, rewarding decisive candle shapes.
● Z-Score Standardization
The script calculates the "Raw Oscillator" by subtracting a moving average (Signal Line) from the cumulative A/D Line. It then calculates the Z-Score of this raw value over a lookback period (`z_len`).
Formula: Z = (Value - Mean) / Standard Deviation
🎨 Visual Guide
The indicator renders a complex data set into an easy-to-read interface:
• The Oscillator (Line & Histogram)
The primary output is the Z-Score value.
Teal Histogram/Line: Represents Bullish momentum (Accumulation). Darker Teal indicates accelerating momentum (`osc > previous`), while lighter Teal indicates decaying momentum.
Red Histogram/Line: Represents Bearish momentum (Distribution). Darker Red indicates accelerating selling pressure, while lighter Red indicates exhaustion.
Gray: If the Trend Filter (200 EMA) or VWAP Filter is enabled and the signal opposes the trend, the histogram turns Gray to indicate a low-probability counter-trend signal.
• Bollinger Bands (Blue Bands)
These bands wrap around the oscillator line.
Upper Band: Usually set to +2 Standard Deviations. When the oscillator pierces this band, accumulation is statistically extreme (potential mean reversion or strong breakout).
Lower Band: Usually set to -2 Standard Deviations. Indicates statistically extreme distribution.
• Divergences
The script automatically detects and plots structural divergences:
Green Lines/Labels: Bullish Divergence. Price makes a Lower Low while the Oscillator makes a Higher Low.
Red Lines/Labels: Bearish Divergence. Price makes a Higher High while the Oscillator makes a Lower High.
• Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Dashboard
Located in the top right, this table displays the momentum status (BULL/BEAR) of the oscillator across three user-defined timeframes (default: 60min, 240min, Daily), allowing for fractal trend analysis.
📖 How to Use
This tool is best used for identifying trend exhaustion and hidden volume strength.
1. Trend Continuation
In a strong uptrend, look for the Histogram to remain Teal and above the Zero line. A pullback to the Zero line that bounces back up suggests buyers are stepping in to defend the trend.
2. Statistical Extremes
When the oscillator line breaks outside the Bollinger Bands, volume flow is significantly deviated from the norm.
If price is ranging, this often signals a reversal (Reversion to Mean).
If price is breaking out, this confirms strong impulse participation.
3. Divergence Reversals
A divergence is a leading signal. If price is pushing new highs but the A/D Oscillator fails to make a new high (Red Divergence Line), it indicates that the volume supporting the move is drying up, often preceding a correction.
⚙️ Inputs and Settings
● Oscillator Settings
Smoothing Type/Length: Choose between ALMA, EMA, SMA, etc., to smooth the A/D line. ALMA is default for its zero-lag properties.
ALMA Offset/Sigma: Fine-tune the responsiveness of the Arnaud Legoux Moving Average.
● Quant Filters
RVOL Lookback & Multiplier: Determines the threshold for "High Volume." Default is 1.5x average volume.
Z-Score Lookback: The period used to establish statistical significance (Default: 100).
Use VWAP/Trend Filter: Logical switches to gray out signals that contradict the macro trend (200 EMA) or the intraday mean (VWAP).
● Dashboard
Customize the three timeframes displayed in the MTF table to match your trading horizon (e.g., Scalpers might use 5m, 15m, 1h).
🔍 Deconstruction of the Underlying Scientific and Academic Framework
This indicator relies on the Law of Supply and Demand quantified through Standard Score (Z-Score) Statistics .
Standard Accumulation/Distribution is derived from the work of Marc Chaikin, positing that the proximity of the close to the high/low on high volume indicates the "smart money" flow. However, raw cumulative data suffers from heteroscedasticity (varying variance).
By applying Z-Score normalization:
Z = (x - μ) / σ
We transform the data into a standard normal distribution. This allows us to apply probability theory to volume analysis. A value of +2.0 is not merely "high"; it represents a volume flow intensity that falls within the top 2.2% of the data set (assuming normal distribution), providing a mathematically robust definition of "Overbought" or "Oversold" volume conditions.

Advanced users can select "Custom" to manually tune ATR multiplier, percentage threshold, and calculation method.
HOW I USE IT
I mainly trade /MNQ futures on 1-5 minute charts for scalping - that's my bread and butter. The indicator works decent on other stuff like stocks or forex too, but I dial sensitivity up for faster scalps during volatile sessions.
My typical trade setup:
1. Wait for a confirmed REVERSAL label (green for long, red for short)
2. Check that it lines up with the EMA trend color (bullish candles for longs, bearish for shorts)
3. If it's a "strong" signal where the reversal hits during a trend flip, that's my green light
4. Quick check for nearby supply/demand zones to avoid fighting them
5. Enter with a tight stop below/above the reversal line
6. Target 1:1 or 2:1 risk/reward, usually out in 5-10 minutes
The horizontal lines from each reversal give me logical stop placement levels, and the supply/demand zones help identify potential profit targets or areas to avoid.
SETTINGS & CUSTOMIZATION
Signal Modes:
- Confirmed Only = Most reliable, only shows locked-in signals (recommended)
- Confirmed + Preview = Shows both confirmed and potential signals
- Preview Only = For testing/development
Sensitivity Presets:
Start with "Medium" and adjust based on your trading style:
- Scalping volatile sessions = "High" or "Very High"
- Day trading = "Medium"
- Swing trading = "Low" or "Very Low"
Display Options:
- Choose candle display type (Solid, Trend, Bars, Volume, None)
- Show/hide supply/demand zones
- Adjust zone box extension length
- Customize info table position and size
- Control maximum lines displayed
Alert System:
- Bullish/Bearish reversal alerts
- EMA trend change alerts
- Strong signal alerts (reversal + trend alignment)
- "Any reversal" catch-all alert
IMPORTANT - READ THIS FIRST
Don't rely on this indicator alone. Always pair it with your own price action or volume confirmation, because no indicator is perfect. Avoid cranking sensitivity too high in ranging markets or you'll get whipped. Test on demo first, and remember it's non-repainting so signals are final, but preview mode can tease you into early entries if you're not patient.
Risk management is key - don't size up just because a signal looks good. This indicator helps identify potential reversals, but YOU still need to manage your trades, set proper stops, and control position size based on your account risk tolerance.
WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT
Unlike simple pivot indicators or manual support/resistance drawing:
- Adapts automatically to volatility changes (ATR-based)
- Never repaints - signals lock in place permanently
- Reversal detection works with trend context (EMAs)
- Supply/demand zones mark key structural levels
- One-click sensitivity adjustment via presets
- Works across multiple timeframes and instruments
The zigzag reversal algorithm adapts to volatility using ATR, while the EMA system provides trend context so you're not trading reversals blindly against the trend. The supply/demand zones help identify key levels where price has reversed before. It's built specifically for active traders who need reliable, non-repainting signals.
BEST PRACTICES
✅ DO:
- Start with "Medium" sensitivity on demo account
- Wait for confirmed signals before entering
- Use horizontal lines for stop placement
- Check trend context (candle colors) before trading reversals
- Combine with volume analysis or price action
- Test different sensitivity settings for your instrument
❌ DON'T:
- Trade every signal blindly without context
- Use "Very High" sensitivity in choppy/ranging markets
- Ignore the trend direction (candle colors)
- Enter on preview labels (they can disappear)
- Skip proper risk management
- Overtrade just because signals appear

Daily maximum price range for Credit SpreadsVolatility & Momentum for Credit Spreads
It is a specialized mean-reversion tool designed primarily for options traders focusing on Credit Spreads (specifically 0DTE on SPX) and intraday reversals. By combining Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) with VIX-adjusted volatility bands, this indicator identifies statistical extremes where price is likely to revert.
Unlike standard Bollinger Bands or Keltner Channels, TITAN adapts its width based on real-time implied volatility (VIX), ensuring that your "overextended" zones are accurate whether the market is calm or chaotic.
🎯 Core Concept
The indicator relies on the principle that price moves within a definable "Daily Range" relative to the VWAP. When price pushes to the outer limits of this range while simultaneously hitting RSI extremes; it signals a high-probability reversal setup ideal for selling premium.
🛠 How It Works
The engine is built on three pillars:
Volatility-Adaptive Bands: The bands are calculated using a 14-day Average Daily Range (ADR), which is then dynamically scaled by the current VIX relative to a baseline. If VIX spikes, the bands widen instantly to keep you safe from premature entries.
Momentum Triggers: Signals are generated only when the RSI (14) hits extreme Overbought (>70) or Oversold (<30) levels.
"Golden Hour" Filtering: To avoid market open noise or late-day chop, the indicator includes a customizable time filter (Default: 10:15 – 11:30 AM EST). Signals outside this window are suppressed to enforce trading discipline.
🚀 Key Features
Visual Strategy Simulation: The indicator now includes a built-in "Strike Simulator." Upon the first valid signal of the session, it automatically plots a horizontal "Strike Line" at the Outer Band ± a user-defined buffer (e.g., 10 points). This helps you visualize your theoretical strike price for the rest of the day.
Bull & Bear Zones: Color-coded fills (Green for Bullish Buy Zones, Red for Bearish Sell Zones) make it easy to see market context at a glance.
Live Dashboard: A Heads-Up Display (HUD) in the bottom right shows real-time RSI values, Golden Hour status, and current signal state.
Unified Alert System: A single master alert condition triggers if price hits an RSI extreme OR touches a volatility band during your active trading window.
📉 How to Trade It (Example Strategy)
Wait for the Window: Ensure the "Golden Hour" on the dashboard reads ACTIVE (Default 10:15 AM EST).
Identify the Zone: Short Setup (Call Credit Spread): Price pushes into the Red Zone (Outer High). Long Setup (Put Credit Spread): Price pushes into the Green Zone (Outer Low).
Confirm the Signal: Look for the Diamond Icon. This confirms RSI has hit the extreme threshold.
Check the "Strike Line": Use the simulated horizontal line to identify where your short strike would be (Outer Band + Buffer) to verify it is at a safe distance from current price.
⚙️ Settings
ADR Length: Lookback period for daily range calculation (Default: 10).
Baseline VIX:* The standard VIX level used for normalization (Default: 15.0).
Inner/Outer Multipliers: Controls the width of the bands.
Golden Hour: The specific time window for valid signals.
Strike Buffer: Points added to the outer band to simulate your option strike price.
⚠️ Disclaimer
This tool is for informational purposes only. Trading options, especially 0DTE credit spreads, involves significant risk. Always backtest strategies and manage risk accordingly.
