Trader4Telugu TradingThe Trader4Telugu Trading Suite is a technical analysis toolkit designed to consolidate institutional-style trading concepts into a single indicator. This script helps traders visualize market structure, liquidity zones, and pivot points without cluttering the chart with multiple separate indicators.
This suite is composed of four distinct technical modules:
1. Dynamic Camarilla Pivots This module calculates support and resistance levels using the standard Camarilla equation.
Logic: The script fetches the previous period's High, Low, and Close to calculate the R4/S4 (Breakout) and R5/S5 (Reversal) levels.
Auto-Timeframe: It automatically detects your current chart timeframe to provide the most relevant data (e.g., displaying Weekly pivots when viewing a 4-Hour chart, or Monthly pivots when viewing a Daily chart).
2. Imbalance & Structure Detection (SMC) This module identifies areas where price has moved aggressively, leaving inefficient pricing (Fair Value Gaps) or structural pivot points (Order Blocks).
FVG Logic: The script compares the current candle's Low with the High of the candle 2 bars ago (or vice versa). If the gap exceeds a user-defined ATR threshold (default 0.5x Average True Range), it highlights the zone.
Auto-Cleanup: To maintain chart cleanliness, the script uses an algorithm to detect when price has "mitigated" (filled) a gap. Once a zone is tested, it is automatically removed from the chart.
3. Market Structure Highs & Lows
Logic: Using a configurable swing detection length (default: 5 bars), the script identifies Pivot Highs and Pivot Lows.
BOS (Break of Structure): When a candle closes beyond a confirmed Pivot High or Low, the script draws a "BOS" line, indicating a potential trend continuation.
4. Session Killzones (Time-Based) This module highlights specific time windows that often correlate with high volatility in global markets.
Timezone: The logic is hardcoded to New York time (UTC-4) to ensure consistency regardless of user location.
Sessions: It highlights the Asia Range, London Open, and New York AM/PM sessions, allowing traders to visually backtest session-based volatility.
Settings & Customization:
Each module can be toggled on/off individually in the settings.
Colors and transparency are fully customizable to fit dark or light themes.

Planetary IngressDisplays planetary ingresses, the moments when a planet crosses from one zodiac sign into another. This indicator marks historical ingresses directly on your chart and projects upcoming ones with precise date, time, and retrograde status.
Powered by the open-source BlueprintResearch Planetary Ephemeris library , which implements truncated VSOP87 (planets) and ELP2000 (Moon) series for high-accuracy celestial calculations entirely within Pine Script.
█ FEATURES
• All 10 celestial bodies — Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto
• Geocentric or Heliocentric views — toggle between Earth-centered (standard astrology) and Sun-centered perspectives
• Retrograde indicator — shows ℞ symbol when a planet is in apparent retrograde motion (geocentric only)
• Future ingress projection — displays the following sign change as a dotted vertical line with customizable date/time and timezone
• Color-coded by zodiac sign — 12 fully customizable colors for each sign
• Per-sign visibility controls — easily show/hide specific signs
• Per-sign alerts — get notified when a planet enters selected signs
• Fully customizable labels — adjust size, colors, transparency, and placement
█ HOW TO USE
1. Select your planet from the dropdown
2. Choose Geocentric (traditional) or Heliocentric view
3. Historical ingresses appear as labels above price bars with a planet symbol and a zodiac sign
4. The next future ingress is shown as a dotted vertical line with projected date/time
5. Hover over labels for exact degree position (e.g., "0°Ari00'")
6. Set up alerts via "Alert on Ingress" settings for specific sign entries
█ LIMITATIONS & ACCURACY
This indicator uses optimized, truncated VSOP87 and ELP2000 series tailored for Pine Script performance. It delivers excellent accuracy for trading and analytical purposes, but is not intended for professional astronomical use.
Expected Ingress Timing Accuracy (Geocentric view):
• Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars: Within hours to ±1 day
• Jupiter, Saturn: Within ±1–2 days
• Uranus, Neptune: Within ±3–7 days
• Pluto: Within ±1–2 weeks (simplified Meeus method, valid 1900–2100)
Heliocentric view: Inner and faster-moving planets match geocentric accuracy. Outer planets (especially Uranus/Neptune) may occasionally show larger variances (up to ±1 month in rare cases) due to their extremely slow motion amplifying minor truncation effects in the series.
Why outer planets vary more:
Slower planets take weeks or months to cross a single degree. Even minor positional discrepancies from truncated terms can shift ingress timing by days or weeks—most noticeable with the outermost bodies.
Recommendation: For mission-critical timing, always cross-reference with professional tools such as JPL Horizons , Swiss Ephemeris, or Astro.com.
█ ROADMAP
Accuracy improvements are an ongoing priority. The modular library design allows targeted upgrades to individual planets without breaking existing functionality.
Planned Enhancements:
• Higher-precision outer planet calculations (Uranus, Neptune)
• Improved heliocentric outer planet accuracy
• Enhanced Pluto method
• Additional series terms where beneficial
Updates will be released through the BlueprintResearch/lib_ephemeris library—follow for notifications.

Next ER: Displays the days remaining until the next Earnings Report. Cells turn red when an ER is imminent (within 1 week).
Floating SL by Plikam AIThe indicator draws symmetric “floating” lines at a user-defined distance in ticks from the latest bar’s close, and optionally a second set at 2x that distance. This is purely a visual helper and does not affect positions.
40 SMA Scaling StrategyThis trend-following strategy focuses on capturing momentum when price breaks above the 40-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) while utilizing a systematic scale-out (Take Profit) approach to lock in gains during extended runs.
Strategy Logic
Entry: Opens a Long position with 100% of current equity when the price closes above the 40 SMA. This ensures maximum capital efficiency at the start of a new perceived trend.
Scaling Take Profits: To reduce risk as the trade progresses, the strategy automatically closes 25% of the initial position for every 1% increase in price from the entry point.
Exit: The entire remaining position is closed immediately if the price closes below the 40 SMA, acting as a trailing stop that adapts to the moving average.
Key Features
Capital-Efficient: Starts with a full account allocation to maximize exposure to the initial breakout.
Systematic De-risking: By scaling out in 25% increments, the strategy banks profits early while leaving a portion of the trade active for potential "moon shots."
Trend-Following Exit: Uses a classic SMA filter to exit, aiming to stay in the trade as long as the medium-term trend remains bullish.
Multi-Time Period Charts 1W CustomThe Multi-Time Period Charts (MTPC) indicator displays data from higher-timeframe (HTF) bars directly on the chart. It draws color-coded boxes representing HTF ranges based on standard prices or Heikin Ashi values, enabling multi-timeframe bar analysis without the need to change the chart's timeframe or type.

EMA + Session VWAPA simple and clean indicator that combines an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) with a Session-based VWAP that resets daily. It helps traders identify the overall trend and the fair price level during the current trading session.
Ideal for intraday trading, trend confirmation, and spotting dynamic support and resistance levels.
CHoCH then BOSThis indicator implements a clean, rule-based market structure model that detects a Change of Character (CHoCH) followed by a confirmed Break of Structure (BOS), while explicitly preventing overlapping or premature signals. It uses pivot highs and lows to establish swing structure and maintains an internal bullish or bearish bias. A CHoCH is triggered only when price breaks the most recent swing in the opposite direction of the current structure, signaling a potential trend shift. Importantly, the script does not mark a BOS immediately after the CHoCH; instead, it waits for the first new pivot to form after the CHoCH and uses that pivot as a valid BOS level. A BOS is confirmed only when price subsequently breaks that post-CHoCH level, ensuring proper structural sequencing (CHoCH → pullback → BOS). Visual labels mark CHoCH (“C”) and BOS (“B”) events, while optional lines display the active BOS level being monitored. The result is a robust, non-repainting structure indicator designed to filter noise and highlight higher-quality trend confirmations rather than raw swing breaks
Volume Momentum Radar📊 Volume Momentum Radar — Smarter Volume, Clear Momentum
Volume Momentum Radar is a simple, zero-nonsense improvement on the standard volume indicator. It helps you instantly see when volume matters by combining:
Relative Volume
Price Momentum
…in a single, easy-to-read volume pane.
Instead of just plotting raw volume, this tool highlights when rising volume is actually aligned with momentum, helping you quickly spot meaningful participation vs noise.
🧠 What it measures
The indicator calculates:
Relative Volume
Volume compared to its moving average to detect unusually high or low activity.
Momentum
You can choose:
RSI-based momentum (default)
or Rate of Change (ROC)
Momentum is centered so:
above 0 = bullish momentum
below 0 = bearish momentum
🎨 Color Logic (at a glance)
Each volume column is colored according to both volume and momentum:
🟢 Bright Green – high volume + bullish momentum
🔴 Bright Red – high volume + bearish momentum
🟦 Blue – neutral / choppy
🌫️ Gray – low relative volume (quiet market)
🟩 Teal – bullish momentum, normal volume
🟫 Maroon – bearish momentum, normal volume
The orange line is the Volume Moving Average, your baseline for relative volume.
👀 Optional extra information
Turn on the settings toggle to show:
📈 Relative Volume as a line
⚡ Normalized momentum line
This is helpful if you want a more analytical view rather than just colors.

Price per Book Value--- Price per Book Value (P/BV) Explanation ---
English:
P/BV is a financial ratio used to compare a company's current market price to its book value.
It reflects how much investors are willing to pay for each dollar of a company's net assets.
Formula: P/BV = Current Stock Price / Book Value Per Share (BVPS)
Interpretation:
- P/BV < 1: The stock may be undervalued or the market expects low returns on assets.
- P/BV > Industry Average: The stock might be overvalued or reflects high growth expectations.
- Low P/BV is commonly used by value investors to find "bargain" stocks.
ภาษาไทย:
P/BV (Price to Book Value) คือ อัตราส่วนที่ใช้เปรียบเทียบราคาตลาดของหุ้น กับมูลค่าทางบัญชีของบริษัท
สะท้อนว่านักลงทุนยอมจ่ายเงินกี่เท่าของมูลค่าสินทรัพย์สุทธิของบริษัท
สูตร: P/BV = ราคาหุ้นปัจจุบัน / มูลค่าทางบัญชีต่อหุ้น (BVPS)
การแปลความหมาย:
- P/BV < 1: ราคาหุ้นถูกกว่ามูลค่าทางบัญชี (หุ้นราคาถูก) หรือตลาดมองว่าบริษัทมีแนวโน้มไม่ดี
- P/BV > ค่าเฉลี่ย: หุ้นอาจมีราคาสูงเกินไป หรือสะท้อนความคาดหวังในการเติบโตที่สูง
- P/BV ต่ำ มักถูกนักลงทุนสาย Value (VI) ใช้เป็นเกณฑ์ในการค้นหาหุ้นที่มีราคาต่ำกว่ามูลค่าที่ควรจะเป็น
--- Investment Utility: How to use P/BV for Buy/Sell ---
English:
1. Identify "Value" Entry: Buying when P/BV is near historical lows (colored Green in this script)
provides a "Margin of Safety" as it's close to the company's net asset value.
2. Identify "Exit" Points: Selling when P/BV reaches historical peaks or significantly exceeds
average (colored Red) suggests the price is "expensive" and may be due for a correction.
3. Bottom-Fishing: Stocks with P/BV < 1 are often targets for turnaround plays or liquidations.
ภาษาไทย:
1. หาจุดเข้าซื้อ (Value Buy): การซื้อเมื่อ P/BV อยู่ในระดับต่ำใกล้เคียงกับสถิติต่ำสุดในอดีต (ในสคริปต์นี้คือสีเขียว)
ช่วยสร้าง "ส่วนเผื่อความปลอดภัย" (Margin of Safety) เพราะราคาใกล้เคียงกับสินทรัพย์จริงของบริษัท
2. หาจุดขาย (Take Profit): เมื่อ P/BV พุ่งสูงเกินค่าเฉลี่ยหรือทำจุดสูงสุดใหม่ (ในสคริปต์นี้คือสีแดง)
บ่งบอกว่าราคาเริ่มแพงเกินไป และมีความเสี่ยงที่จะปรับฐานลงมา
3. หาหุ้นที่ราคาต่ำกว่าทุน: หุ้นที่ P/BV < 1 คือหุ้นที่ราคาตลาดต่ำกว่าเงินทุนทางบัญชี มักเป็นเป้าหมายของนักลงทุนที่หาหุ้นฟื้นตัว
%-to-Tick Trailing Stop & VisualizerPercent-to-Tick Trailing Stop (strategy.exit Framework + Visualizer)
Overview
This script focuses on exit management and visualization, not entry performance. The included MA crossover entry is intentionally simple and replaceable.
Core idea (Percent → Tick conversion)
strategy.exit() trailing parameters are tick-based (trail_points, trail_offset, and loss).
This script lets you input distances in percent (%) and converts them into integer ticks using syminfo.mintick, making the same exit logic portable across most tick-based symbols/exchanges with different tick sizes.
//==What it provides==//
1. % → tick conversion for:
- Fixed stop loss (loss)
- Trailing activation distance (trail_points)
- Trailing offset distance (trail_offset)
2. On-chart visualization:
- Entry average price
- Trailing activation threshold
- Fixed stop-loss line
- Trailing stop line (with an exit-bar alignment attempt to reduce gaps)
//==How to use==//
1. Keep the included MA crossover entries, or replace them with your own entries.
2. Configure:
- Fixed Stop Loss % (loss_pct)
- Trailing Activation % (t_points_pct)
- Trailing Offset % (t_offset_pct)
3. Adjust commission/slippage defaults to match your market.
//==Important limitations (must read)==//
- calc_on_every_tick=true recalculates on realtime bars only; historical bars are evaluated differently. Backtests can differ from realtime behavior and may change after reload.
- Tick rounding: percent distances are rounded to integer ticks, so small differences can occur depending on tick size and price level.
- For more realistic intrabar backtesting, consider enabling Bar Magnifier in Strategy Properties (if available).
# Average Entry Price (Basis):
"Calculations are based on the position's average entry price (strategy.position_avg_price)."
# Pine Script v6:
"Written in the latest Pine Script v6."
요약
이 스크립트의 핵심은 “진입 전략”이 아니라 **strategy.exit()의 tick 기반 트레일링 파라미터를 % 입력으로 일반화(%→ticks 변환)**하여, 다양한 심볼/거래소의 서로 다른 tick size 환경에서도 동일한 exit 로직을 재사용할 수 있게 만든 “청산 프레임워크”입니다. 또한 calc_on_every_tick=true 환경에서 트리거/손절/트레일 라인을 실시간에 가깝게 시각화하는 데 중점을 두었습니다.
단, calc_on_every_tick은 실시간 바에서만 틱 단위 재계산이 적용되며, 히스토리 바/백테스트는 평가 방식이 달라 결과가 다를 수 있습니다.
AlgoIndex - Levels & Setup PlannerIntroducing a manual trading planner designed to streamline your trading strategy. The tool allows you to identify up to 12 key levels - both lines and zones highlight a critical level, and construct a comprehensive trade setup, including entry, stop, target, and risk/reward metrics, tailored to your selected trading session. It also features optional JSON alerts for significant level events and trade setups.
Full Description
The AlgoIndex - Levels and Setup Planner is an innovative manual planning indicator that enables traders to systematically organize their key price levels and formulate a complete trading idea prior to executing trades.
This script is released as a Protected (closed-source) tool: while it is accessible to all users, the underlying source code remains confidential.
Key Features:
1. Levels Mapping (Planner):
- Offers 6 Resistance levels (R1-R6) and 6 Support levels (S1-S6).
- Each level can represent either a specific price point (line) or a broader price zone (high/low).
- Inverted zone inputs are automatically adjusted for consistency.
- Includes an optional Critical level, which can be customized with unique styling and alerts.
2. Trading Setup Builder:
- Establish the trade Direction (Long or Short).
- Define Entry points as either a precise level or an entry zone.
- Specify Stop and Target areas.
- Visualize risk/reward (R:R) metrics using the symbol’s point value.
- The layout features clear entry, stop, and target lines, as well as a designated trade box.
3. Session Planning:
- Select from various trading sessions: New York AM, New York PM, London, Asia, or a Customized time window.
- The trade plan gets visually represented within the designated session window in Eastern Time.
4. Alerts (Optional):
- Informational Alerts: These triggers notify users of level touch or break events for support/resistance and critical levels; they do not execute trades.
- Trade-Entry Alerts (Webhook-Ready JSON): Leveraging built-in entry logic, these alerts function in two distinct modes:
- INSTANT Mode (No Confirmation): This mode activates at the close of a bar that breaches the entry level (indicating a breakout) or surpasses the zone boundary (signaling a zone exit) in the intended trade direction.
- CONFIRMATION Mode: In this scenario, the script will await the completion of predetermined confirmation logic before sending the entry alert.
- Breakout Strategy: This involves a breakout past the entry level, followed by a retest and stabilization in the trade's favor.
- Zone Strategy: This focuses on a rejection at the entry zone, followed by a continuation in the desired trade direction.
To utilize webhooks, set a TradingView alert on this script with the condition “Any alert() function call” and input your designated webhook URL.
Important Notes:
This tool serves as a comprehensive planning and alerting device, yet it does not ensure trading success. Traders are advised to validate levels, manage their risk effectively, and test alerts on their preferred timeframes before relying exclusively on automated systems.

Custom Weekly Volume Profile [Multi-Timeframe]Description: This indicator renders a high-precision Weekly Volume Profile that resets at the start of every trading week. Unlike standard fixed-range profiles, this script builds the profile bar-by-bar using lower timeframe data (e.g., 1-minute or 5-minute data) to ensure accuracy even on higher timeframe charts.
It is designed for traders who track the developing value of the current week (Auction Market Theory) and need specific alerts when price tests the edges of value.
Key Features:
Developing Weekly Profile:
The profile resets automatically at the beginning of the week (Sunday/Monday).
It tracks the Point of Control (POC), Value Area High (VAH), and Value Area Low (VAL) in real-time as the week progresses.
Previous Week Levels:
The script automatically stores the final levels (POC, VAH, VAL) of the previous week and projects them forward. This allows you to trade tests of the prior week's value.
Auto-Scaling Histogram:
Smart Width: The profile starts wider at the beginning of the week (when data is sparse) and automatically shrinks as the week progresses (Thursday/Friday) to keep your chart clean and readable.
Advanced Alerting:
Crossover Alerts: Trigger alerts when price crosses the developing VAH/VAL or the previous week's levels.
Time Window Filter: Includes a session input (default 08:30-15:00) to restrict alerts to specific trading hours, preventing notifications during low-volume overnight sessions.
Customization:
Precision: Adjustable "Row Size" and "Calculation Timeframe" to tune performance vs. accuracy.
Visuals: Full color control over the Value Area, Outer Volume, and Level Lines.
Settings:
Calculation Precision: Determines the lower timeframe used to calculate the volume (e.g., set to "5" for 5-minute precision).
Value Area %: Default is 70%, standard for AMT trading.
Timezone: Adjustable to ensure the weekly reset aligns with your local exchange time (e.g., America/Chicago for CME Futures).

Multi-Factor Long Bias ToolThe Multi Factor Long Bias Tool is designed to highlight periods when multiple bullish conditions align, helping traders identify higher probability long opportunities. By combining trend, momentum, and participation metrics into a unified visual signal, the indicator goes beyond single factor analysis to support more consistent decision making.
Optimized for a 1-hour chart, it integrates four complementary components—MACD momentum, RSI confirmation, volume participation, and optional short interest filtering—to reveal when market conditions collectively favor a long bias rather than isolated upswings.
Core Logic
1. Momentum confirmation with MACD (1 Hour Frame):
The tool uses a fast MACD configuration to capture short term momentum shifts. A bullish MACD state—where the MACD line is above its signal line, above zero, and supported by a positive histogram—indicates that short term momentum exceeds long term trend strength. This alignment reflects sustained upward pressure rather than temporary mean reversion.
2. Relative strength moderation via RSI:
RSI serves as a context filter to avoid extremes. The tool favors an RSI that falls between the oversold and overbought thresholds, typically between 30 and 70. This “healthy momentum zone” identifies when price maintains strength without being overheated, aligning with controlled, directional moves rather than exhaustion.
3. Volume backed participation:
A volume filter confirms whether moves are supported by meaningful market participation. The script compares current daily volume to its 20-day average; only sessions meeting or exceeding a user defined multiple (default: 1×) qualify as high volume days. This ensures momentum signals align with genuine liquidity rather than thin, unreliable activity.
4. Optional short interest condition:
An additional input allows traders to incorporate short interest data, either manually or from external sources. When enabled, the tool verifies that short interest meets a chosen minimum percentage before validating a long bias. This feature is especially useful for setups targeting potential short squeezes or for avoiding markets lacking a meaningful contrarian base.
Signal Interpretation
When MACD momentum, RSI positioning, volume participation, and optional short interest filters align, the chart background softens to green, indicating a “long bias” environment.
If the “Focus on Longs Only” option is active, a small upward triangle marker labeled LONG appears beneath price bars for clear visual confirmation.
Traders can also choose to view MACD, its signal line, histogram, and RSI in a detachable sub panel. This optional visualization makes it easy to inspect alignment between underlying momentum and the on-chart bias signal without cluttering the main price view.
Why These Factors Are Combined
Each component contributes a distinct layer of confirmation:
Momentum + liquidity: Ensures directional strength is backed by solid participation, preventing false breakouts on low volume moves.
RSI moderation: Filters out overextended rallies and unsustainable intraday spikes.
Short interest filter: Adds an optional contrarian check for potential squeeze setups or sentiment imbalance.
Together, these signals improve reliability by demanding agreement across multiple perspectives—trend, momentum, and market depth—before painting a bullish bias.
Practical Use and Tuning
The indicator serves as a bias and timing aid rather than a standalone trading system. It helps discretionary traders focus attention on periods when multiple conditions favor looking for long entries, while leaving exact entry, exit, and risk parameters to individual strategies.
All inputs—including MACD lengths, RSI range, daily volume multiplier, and short interest requirements—are fully adjustable to match various instruments, timeframes, and trading styles.
For instance:
Adjusting MACD lengths fine tunes responsiveness to trend shifts.
Modifying RSI thresholds changes the tolerance for extended momentum.
Raising the volume multiplier demands stronger conviction from market participants.
Visual Cues
Background highlight: Shaded green when all long bias conditions align.
Triangle markers: “LONG” indicators below bars when the tool detects favorable conditions.
Optional chart pane: Displays MACD and RSI for manual confirmation.
Intended Use
This tool assists traders in recognizing when technical, behavioral, and participation factors converge to support long opportunities. It is best used as part of a comprehensive trading process that includes broader context analysis, defined risk management, and confirmation from higher timeframe trends.
All parameters are user configurable for customization across markets and trading approaches. This indicator is for analytical purposes only and does not constitute financial or investment advice.
