Muzyorae - Quarterly TheoryQuarterly Theory — NY Session Macro Model
The Quarterly Theory Model is a structured framework for analyzing intraday market behavior based on institutional activity and macro-level cycles.
It divides the New York trading session into four sequential “quarters” (Q1–Q4), each representing distinct phases of market participation, liquidity accumulation, and directional bias.
This model is designed for professional traders who aim to align their strategies with institutional flows, key liquidity zones, and market structure shifts.
It accommodates both AMDX (Accumulation → Manipulation → Distribution → Expansion) and XAMD (reversal sequences) fractal patterns, allowing traders to adapt to varying market conditions.
Price action may expand early during Q1 in an XAMD sequence, representing an initial breakout or early liquidity sweep before the typical Q2 manipulation phase. Traders should be aware that Q1 can occasionally produce unexpected volatility or directional bias in such sequences.
Session Breakdown (New York Time)
Q1 – Accumulation
Time: 9:30 – 10:00 AM
Phase Characteristics: Early session positioning, initial liquidity sweeps, and false moves. Institutions build positions while retail participants often react to gaps and premarket activity.
Note: Price may expand early in an XAMD sequence, creating a short-term directional move before Q2.
Q2 – Manipulation / Expansion
Time: 10:00 – 11:30 AM
Phase Characteristics: The main directional move develops, often characterized by breaks of structure, fair value gaps, and liquidity sweeps. This is a prime area for trend initiation.
Q3 – Distribution / Retracement
Time: 11:30 AM – 1:30 PM
Phase Characteristics: Price consolidates and retraces into prior accumulation zones, reflecting profit-taking or redistribution by institutions. Market chop and sideways movement are common.
Q4 – Final Expansion / Repricing
Time: 1:30 – 4:00 PM
Phase Characteristics: The afternoon session often produces final liquidity sweeps, trend continuation, or reversals, setting the high or low of the day and completing the daily macro cycle.
Key Features of the Model
Fractal-Based Structure: Q1–Q4 cycles reflect institutional behavior at a macro level, scalable to other intraday or multi-day fractals.
Supports AMDX & XAMD: Allows for both standard accumulation → manipulation → distribution → expansion sequences and reversal patterns depending on market behavior.
Early Expansion in Q1: Recognizes that in XAMD sequences, Q1 may produce early directional moves or breakout activity.
True Open Q2 Line: Highlights the opening price of Q2 as a reference for trend validation and potential entry zones.
Dynamic Time Alignment: Fully synchronized with New York (ET) time zone, ensuring accurate representation of market cycles.
Professional Visualization: Optional labels and vertical markers for each quarter, supporting quick visual analysis and pattern recognition.
Integration with ICT Concepts: Compatible with Smart Money Techniques (SMT), Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), Order Blocks (OBs), and Break of Structure (BOS) for enhanced trade planning.
Purpose and Application
Anticipates areas of liquidity accumulation and manipulation.
Identifies optimal entry and exit zones within institutional cycles.
Structures trades around probable trend initiation and continuation periods.
Aligns retail activity with institutional flow for higher probability setups.
Adapts to market variability through AMDX and XAMD fractal patterns.
Accounts for early expansions or breakout activity during Q1 in XAMD sequences.
By using the Quarterly Theory Model, traders gain a systematic, time-based framework to interpret market structure and maximize alignment with institutional participants.
Third Eye ORB Pro (0915-0930 IST, no-plot)Third Eye ORB Pro (Opening Range Breakout + Range Mode)
This indicator is designed specifically for Indian stocks and indices (NIFTY, BANKNIFTY, FINNIFTY, MIDCAP, etc.) to track the Opening Range (09:15–09:30 IST) and generate actionable intraday trade signals. It combines two key modes — Range Mode (mean reversion inside the opening range) and Breakout Mode (momentum trading beyond the range).
1. Opening Range Framework (09:15–09:30 IST)
The indicator automatically plots the Opening Range High (ORH) and Opening Range Low (ORL) after the first 15 minutes of market open.
The area between ORH and ORL acts as the intraday battlefield where most price action occurs (historically ~70–80% of the day is spent inside this zone).
A shaded box and horizontal lines mark this range, serving as a visual reference for support and resistance throughout the day.
2. Range Mode (Mean Reversion Inside OR)
When price trades inside the Opening Range, the indicator looks for edge rejections to capture range-bound trades.
Range BUY (RB): Triggered near ORL when a bullish rejection candle forms (strong body + long lower wick).
Range SELL (RS): Triggered near ORH when a bearish rejection candle forms (strong body + long upper wick).
Optional filters (toggleable in settings):
RSI Filter: Only allow range buys if RSI is oversold (≤45) and range sells if RSI is overbought (≥55).
VWAP Filter: Only allow range trades if price is not too far from VWAP (distance ≤ X% of OR size).
Labels show suggested Stop Loss (just outside the OR band) and Target (midline/VWAP).
Cooldown logic prevents consecutive whipsaw signals.
3. Breakout Mode (Directional Moves Beyond OR)
When price closes strongly outside the ORH/ORL with momentum, the indicator confirms a breakout/breakdown trade.
Buffers are applied to avoid false breakouts:
ATR Buffer: Price must extend at least ATR × multiplier beyond the range edge.
% Buffer: Price must extend at least a percentage of OR size (default 10%).
Confirmation Filters:
Candle must have a strong body (≥60% of total bar range).
Optional “two closes” rule: price must close outside the range for 2 consecutive candles.
BUY BO: Trigger when price closes above ORH + buffer with momentum.
SELL BD: Trigger when price closes below ORL – buffer with momentum.
Labels and alerts are plotted for quick action.
4. Practical Usage
Works best on 5-minute charts for intraday trading.
Designed to help traders capture both:
Range-bound moves during the day (mean reversion plays).
Strong directional breakouts when institutions push price beyond the opening range.
Particularly effective on expiry days, trending sessions, and major news days when breakouts are more likely.
On sideways days, Range Mode provides reliable scalp opportunities at the OR edges.
5. Features
Auto-plots Opening Range High, Low, Midline.
Box + line visuals (no repainting).
Buy/Sell labels for both Range Mode and Breakout Mode.
Customizable buffers (ATR, % of range) to suit volatility.
Alerts for all signals (breakouts and range plays).
Built with risk management in mind (suggested SL and TP shown on chart).
ICT Unicorn Strategy [RoboQuant]What it detects
Structure: uses pivots (ta.pivothigh/low) to build a mini zigzag (A–B–C–D).
“Unicorn” Pattern:
Bull: bullish direction, C below A (protected swing), with a bullish “BRB” candle at B.
Bear: mirrored version.
FVG: searches for a valid gap between candle i and i+2 inside the BRB candle range and greater than 0.05 × ATR (quality filter).
When an FVG appears, it plots boxes/lines (top/bottom of range, protected swing, FVG box).
How it enters
Bull Trigger: a candle opens inside the FVG and closes above the top of the FVG (mitigation + continuation).
SL = protected swing (firstBl.swing, pivot C).
TP = top + (top - swing) * (reward/risk).
Draws Risk and Reward boxes if showTargets=true.
Bear Trigger: mirror setup (opens inside FVG and closes below bottom).
Management & sizing
Sizing: calculates position size = riskAmount / SL distance, capped by maxPositionSize.
RR configurable with risk and reward (default 1:2).
Trailing optional: adjusts TsL using short pivots (lenS).
Trade closes at SL (break of swing) or TP (target reached).
combine: if false, a bull setup cancels a bear setup (and vice versa). If true, both can coexist.
Key parameters
len: pivot sensitivity (structure).
riskAmount and maxPositionSize: risk control.
trail, lenS: trailing logic.
Box colors/visibility (showTargets, colRisk, colReward).
ICT translation
Seeks impulse → FVG → pullback into FVG → expansion, with a protected swing (implicit BOS/MSS via zigzag) and mitigation of imbalance.
The ATR * 0.05 filter avoids micro-gaps without intent.
How I’d use it (quick checklist)
Mark HTF bias (only take bull or bear setups with the trend).
On LTF, wait for a valid FVG inside the BRB candle.
Enter only if a candle re-enters the FVG and closes breaking its edge.
SL at swing C, TP by RR (default 1:2).
Enable trailing only after 1R is reached (optional, tuned via lenS).
Vietnamese: Swing Low Detection with SMA Bands & BackgroundThis script detects **swing lows** using a dynamic SMA-based logic and visually highlights them on the chart.
Features
Customizable Moving Averages: Supports multiple MA types (SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, HMA, DEMA, TEMA, VWMA).
Swing Low Visualization: Identifies swing lows when price closes below the SMA of lows and exits once price trades above the SMA of highs.
Smart Rectangles: Marks detected swing lows with labeled boxes for clear visual reference.
Background Highlights**: Dynamically shades the chart background when price breaks below recent swing lows, helping traders spot potential breakdown zones.
Configurable Parameters: Period length, rectangle length, and MA source can all be tuned.
Use Cases
Spot breakdown/bearish continuation signals when price closes under recent lows.
Combine with higher timeframe trend analysis for confluence.
Notes
* This tool is designed for **visual analysis** and is not a standalone buy/sell signal.
* Works best when combined with broader trend analysis, support/resistance levels, and volume.
SMC Multiestruturas (Liquidez + Sweep + Caixa + BOS) [v2]indicador multiframe com identicacao de liquidez manipulação e quebra de estruturas
Autoback Grid Lab [trade_lexx]Autoback Grid Lab: Your personal laboratory for optimizing grid strategies.
Introduction
First of all, it is important to understand that Autoback Grid Lab is a powerful professional tool for backtesting and optimization, created specifically for traders using both grid strategies and regular take profit with stop loss.
The main purpose of this script is to save you weeks and months of manual testing and parameter selection. Instead of manually testing one combination of settings after another, Autoback Grid Lab automatically tests thousands of unique strategies on historical data, providing you with a comprehensive report on the most profitable and, more importantly, sustainable ones.
If you want to find mathematically sound, most effective settings for your grid strategy on a specific asset and timeframe, then this tool was created for you.
Key Features
My tool has functionality that transforms the process of finding the perfect strategy from a routine into an exciting exploration.
🧪 Mass testing of thousands of combinations
The script is able to systematically generate and run a huge number of unique combinations of parameters through the built-in simulator. You set the ranges, and the indicator does all the work, testing all possible options for the following grid settings:
* Number of safety orders (SO Count)
* Grid step (SO Step)
* Step Multiplier (SO Multiplier) for building nonlinear grids
* Martingale for controlling the volume of subsequent orders
* Take Profit (%)
* Stop Loss (%), with the possibility of calculating both from the entry point and from the dynamic breakeven line
* The volume of the base order (Volume BO) as a percentage of the deposit
🏆 Unique `FinalScore` rating system
Sorting strategies by net profit alone is a direct path to self—deception and choosing strategies that are "tailored" to history and will inevitably fail in real trading. To solve this problem, we have developed FinalScore, a comprehensive assessment of the sustainability and quality of the strategy.
How does it work?
FinalScore analyzes each combination not one by one, but by nine key performance metrics at once, including Net Profit, Drawdown, Profit Factor, WinRate, Sharpe coefficients, Sortino, Squid and Omega. Each of these indicators is normalized, that is, reduced to a single scale. Then, to test the strategy for strength, the system performs 30 iterations, each time assigning random weights to these 9 metrics. A strategy gets a high FinalScore only if it shows consistently high results under different evaluation criteria. This proves her reliability and reduces the likelihood that her success was an accident.
📈 Realistic backtesting engine
The test results are meaningless if they do not take into account the actual trading conditions. Our simulator simulates real trading as accurately as possible, taking into account:
* Leverage: Calculation of the required margin to open and hold positions.
* Commission: A percentage commission is charged each time an order is opened and closed.
* Slippage: The order execution price is adjusted by a set percentage to simulate real market conditions.
* Liquidation model: This is one of the most important functions. The script continuously monitors the equity of the account (capital + unrealized P&L). If equity falls below the level of the supporting margin (calculated from the current value of the position), the simulator forcibly closes the position, as it would happen on a real exchange. This eliminates unrealistic scenarios where the strategy survives after a huge drawdown.
🔌 Integration with external signals
The indicator operates in two modes:
1. `No Signal': Standard mode. The trading cycle starts immediately as soon as the previous one has been closed. Ideal for testing the "pure" mechanics of the grid.
2. `External Signal`: In this mode, a new trading cycle will start only when a signal is received from an external source. You can connect any other indicator (such as the RSI, MACD, or your own strategy) to the script and use it as a trigger to log in. This allows you to combine the power of a grid strategy with your own entry points.
📊 Interactive and informative results panel
Upon completion of the calculations, a detailed table with the TOP N best strategies appears on the screen, sorted according to your chosen criterion. For each strategy in the rating, you will see not only the key metrics (Profit, Drawdown, duration of transactions), but also all the parameters that led to this result. You can immediately take these settings and apply them in your trading.
Application Options: How To Solve Your Problems
Autoback Grid Lab is a flexible tool that can be adapted to solve various tasks, from complete grid optimization to fine—tuning existing strategies. Here are some key scenarios for its use:
1. Complete Optimization Of The Grid Strategy
This is the basic and most powerful mode of use. You can find the most efficient grid configuration for any asset from scratch.
* How to use: Set wide ranges for all key grid parameters ('SO Count`, SO Step, SO Multiplier, Martingale, TP, etc.).
* In the `No Signal` mode: You will find the most stable grid configuration that works as an independent, constantly active strategy, regardless of which-or entrance indicators.
* In the `External Signal` mode: You can connect your favorite indicator for input (for example, RSI, MACD or a complex author's script) and find the optimal grid parameters that best complement your input signals. This allows you to turn a simple signaling strategy into a full-fledged grid system.
2. Selecting the Optimal Take Profit and Stop Loss for Your Strategy
Do you already have an entry strategy, but you are not sure where it is best to put Take Profit and Stop Loss? Autoback Grid Lab can solve this problem as well.
* How to use:
1. Disable optimization of all grid parameters (uncheck SO Count, SO Step, Martingale, etc.). Set the Min value for SO Count to 0.
2. Set the ranges for iteration only for 'Take Profit` and `Stop Loss'.
3. Turn on the External Signal mode and connect your indicator with input signals.
* Result: The script will run your historical entry signals with hundreds of different TP and SL combinations and show you which stop order levels bring maximum profit with minimal risk specifically for your entry points.
3. Building a Secure Network with Risk Management
Many traders are afraid of grid strategies because of the risk of large drawdowns. With the help of the optimizer, you can purposefully find the parameters for such a grid, which includes mandatory risk management through Stop Loss.
* How to use: Enable and set the range for Stop Loss, along with other grid parameters. Don't forget to test both types of SL calculations (`From entry point` and `From breakeven line`) to determine which one works more efficiently.
* Result: You will find balanced strategies in which the grid parameters (number of orders, martingale) and the Stop Loss level are selected in such a way as to maximize profits without going beyond the acceptable risk level for you.
How To Use The Indicator (Step-By-Step Guide)
Working with the Autoback Grid Lab is a sequential process consisting of four main steps: from initial setup to analysis of the finished results. Follow this guide to get the most out of the tool.
Step 1: Initial Setup
1. Add the indicator to the chart of your chosen asset and timeframe.
2. Open the script settings. The first thing you should pay attention to is the ⚙️ Optimization Settings ⚙️ group.
3. Set the `Bars Count'. This parameter determines how much historical data will be used for testing.
* Important: The more bars you specify, the more statistically reliable the backtest results will be. We recommend using the maximum available value (25,000) to test strategies at different market phases.
* Consider: The indicator performs all calculations on the last historical bar. After applying the TradingView settings, it will take some time to load all the specified bars. The results table will appear only after the data is fully loaded. Don't worry if it doesn't appear instantly. And if an error occurs, simply switch the number of combinations to 990 and back to 1000 until the table appears.
Step 2: Optimization Configuration
At this stage, you define the "universe" of parameters that our algorithm will explore.
1. Set the search ranges (🛠 Optimization Parameters 🛠 group).
For each grid parameter that you want to optimize (for example, SO Count or `Take Profit'), you must specify three values:
* Min: The minimum value of the range.
* Max: The maximum value of the range.
* Step: The step with which the values from Min to Max will be traversed.
*Example:* If you set Min=5, Max=10, and Step=1 for SO Count, the script will test strategies with 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 safety orders.
* Tip for users: To get the first results quickly, start with a larger step (for example, TP from 0.5% to 2.5% in 0.5 increments instead of 0.1). After you identify the most promising areas, you can perform a deeper analysis by expanding the ranges around these values.
2. Set Up Money Management (Group `💰 Money Management Settings 💰`).
Fill in these fields with the values that best match your actual trading conditions. This is critically important for obtaining reliable results.
* Capital: Your initial deposit.
* Leverage: Leverage.
* Commission (%): Your trading commission as a percentage.
* Slippage (%): Expected slippage.
* Liquidation Level (%): The level of the supporting margin (MMR in %). For example, for Binance Futures, this value is usually between 0.4% and 2.5%, depending on the asset and position size. Specify this value for your exchange.
3. Select the Sorting Criterion and the Direction (Group `⚙️ Optimization Settings ⚙️').
* `Sort by': Specify the main criteria by which the best strategies will be selected and sorted. I strongly recommend using finalScore to find the most balanced and sustainable strategies.
* `Direction': Choose which trades to test: Long, Short or Both.
Step 3: Start Testing and Work with "Parts"
The total number of unique combinations generated based on your ranges can reach tens of millions. TradingView has technical limitations on the number of calculations that the script can perform at a time. To get around this, I implemented a "Parts" system.
1. What are `Part` and `Combinations in Part'?
* `Combinations in Part': This is the number of backtests that the script performs in one run (1000 by default).
* `Part`: This is the number of the "portion" of combinations that you want to test.
2. How does it work in practice?
* After you have everything set up, leave Part:1 and wait for the results table to appear. You will see the TOP N best strategies from the first thousand tested.
* Analyze them. Then, to check the next thousand combinations, just change the Part to 2 in the settings and click OK. The script will run a test for the next batch.
* Repeat this process by increasing the Part number (`3`, 4, 5...), until you reach the last available part.
* Where can I see the total number of parts? In the information row below the results table, you will find Total parts. This will help you figure out how many more tests are left to run.
Step 4: Analyze the Results in the Table
The results table is your main decision—making tool. It displays the best strategies found, sorted by the criteria you have chosen.
1. Study the performance metrics:
* Rating: Position in the rating.
* Profit %: Net profit as a percentage of the initial capital.
* Drawdown%: The maximum drawdown of the deposit for the entire test period.
* Max Length: The maximum duration of one transaction in days, hours and minutes.
* Trades: The total number of completed trades.
2. Examine the winning parameters:
* To the right of the performance metrics are columns showing the exact settings that led to this result ('SO Count`, SO Step, TP (%), etc.).
3. How to choose the best strategy?
* Don't chase after the maximum profit! The strategy with the highest profit often has the highest drawdown, which makes it extremely risky.
* Seek a balance. The ideal strategy is a compromise between high profitability, low drawdown (Drawdown) and the maximum length of trades acceptable to you (Max Length).
* finalScore was created to find this balance. Trust him — he often highlights not the most profitable, but the most stable and reliable options.
Detailed Description Of The Settings
This section serves as a complete reference for each parameter available in the script settings. The parameters are grouped in the same way as in the indicator interface for your convenience.
Group: ⚙️ Optimization Settings ⚙️
The main parameters governing the testing process are collected here.
* `Enable Optimizer': The main switch. Activates or deactivates all backtesting functionality.
* `Direction': Determines which way trades will be opened during the simulation.
* Long: Shopping only.
* Short: Sales only.
* Both: Testing in both directions. Important: This mode only works in conjunction with an External Signal, as the script needs an external signal to determine the direction for each specific transaction.
* `Signal Mode`: Controls the conditions for starting a new trading cycle (opening a base order).
* No Signal: A new cycle starts immediately after the previous one is completed. This mode is used to test "pure" grid mechanics without reference to market conditions.
* External Signal: A new cycle begins only when a signal is received from an external indicator connected via the Signal field.
* `Signal': A field for connecting an external signal source (works only in the `External Signal` mode). You can select any other indicator on the chart.
* For Long** trades, the signal is considered received if the value of the external indicator ** is greater than 0.
* For Short** trades, the signal is considered received if the value of the external indicator ** is less than 0.
* `Bars Count': Sets the depth of the history in the bars for the backtest. The maximum value (25000) provides the most reliable results.
* `Sort by`: A key criterion for selecting and ranking the best strategies in the final table.
* FinalScore: Recommended mode. A comprehensive assessment that takes into account 9 metrics to find the most balanced and sustainable strategies.
* Profit: Sort by net profit.
* Drawdown: Sort by minimum drawdown.
* Max Length: Sort by the minimum length of the longest transaction.
* `Combinations Count': Indicates how many of the best strategies (from 1 to 50) will be displayed in the results table.
* `Close last trade`: If this option is enabled, any active trade will be forcibly closed at the closing price of the last historical bar. For grid strategies, it is recommended to always enable this option in order to get the correct calculation of the final profit and eliminate grid strategies that have been stuck for a long time.
Group: 💰 Money Management Settings 💰
The parameters in this group determine the financial conditions of the simulation. Specify values that are as close as possible to your actual values in order to get reliable results.
* `Capital': The initial deposit amount for the simulation.
* `Leverage`: The leverage used to calculate the margin.
* `Slippage` (%): Simulates the difference between the expected and actual order execution price. The specified percentage will be applied to each transaction.
* `Commission` (%): The trading commission of your exchange as a percentage. It is charged at the execution of each order (both at opening and closing).
* `Liquidation Level' (%): Maintenance Margin Ratio. This is a critical parameter for a realistic test. Liquidation in the simulator occurs if the Equity of the account (Capital + Unrealized P&L) falls below the level of the supporting margin.
Group: 🛠 Optimization Parameters 🛠
This is the "heart" of the optimizer, where you set ranges for iterating through the grid parameters.
* `Part`: The portion number of the combinations to be tested. Start with 1, and then increment (`2`, 3, ...) sequentially to check all generated strategies.
* `Combinations in Part': The number of backtests performed at a time (in one "Part"). Increasing the value may speed up the process, but it may cause the script to error due to platform limitations. If an error occurs, it is recommended to switch to the step below and back.
Three fields are available for each of the following parameters (`SO Count`, SO Step, SO Multiplier, etc.):
* `Min`: Minimum value for testing.
* `Max': The maximum value for testing.
* `Step`: The step with which the values in the range from Min to Max will be iterated over.
There is also a checkbox for each parameter. If it is enabled, the parameter will be optimized in the specified range. If disabled, only one value specified in the Min field will be used for all tests.
* 'Stop Loss': In addition to the standard settings Min, Max, Step, it has an additional parameter:
* `Type`: Defines how the stop loss price is calculated.
* From entry point: The SL level is calculated once from the entry price (base order price).
* From breakeven line: The SL level is dynamically recalculated from the average position price after each new safety order is executed.
Group: ⚡️Filters⚡️
Filters allow you to filter out those results from the final table that do not meet your minimum requirements.
For each filter (`Max Profit`, Min Drawdown, `Min Trade Length`), you can:
1. Turn it on or off using the checkbox.
2. Select the comparison condition: Greater (More) or Less (Less).
3. Set a threshold value.
*Example:* If you set Less and 20 for the Min Drawdown filter, only those strategies with a maximum drawdown of less than 20% will be included in the final table.
Group: 🎨 Visual Settings 🎨
Here you can customize the appearance of the results table.
* `Position': Selects the position of the table on the screen (for example, Bottom Left — bottom left).
* `Font Size': The size of the text in the table.
* `Header Background / Data Background`: Background colors for the header and data cells.
* `Header Font Color / Data Font Color`: Text colors for the header and data cells.
Important Notes and Limitations
So that you can use the Autoback Grid Lab as efficiently and consciously as possible, please familiarize yourself with the following key features of its work.
1. It is a Tool for Analysis, not for Signals
It is extremely important to understand that this script does not generate trading signals in real time. Its sole purpose is to conduct in—depth research (**backtesting**) on historical data.
* The results you see in the table are a report on how a particular strategy would have worked in the past.
* The script does not provide alerts and does not draw entry/exit points on the chart for the current market situation.
* Your task is to take the best sets of parameters found during optimization and use them in your real trading, for example, when setting up a trading bot or in a manual trading system.
2. Features Of Calculations (This is not a "Repainting")
You will notice that the results table appears and is updated only once — when all historical bars on the chart are loaded. It does not change in real time with each tick of the price.
This is correct and intentional behavior.:
* To test thousands, and sometimes millions of combinations, the script needs to perform a huge amount of calculations. In the Pine Script™ environment, it is technically possible to do this only once, at the very last bar in history.
* The script does not show false historical signals, which then disappear or change. It provides a static report on the results of the simulation, which remains unchanged for a specific historical period.
3. Past Results do not Guarantee Future Results.
This is the golden rule of trading, and it fully applies to the results of backtesting. Successful strategy performance in the past is not a guarantee that it will be as profitable in the future. Market conditions, volatility and trends are constantly changing.
My tool, especially when sorting by finalScore, is aimed at finding statistically stable and reliable strategies to increase the likelihood of their success in the future. However, it is a tool for managing probabilities, not a crystal ball for predicting the future. Always use proper risk management.
4. Dependence on the Quality and Depth of the Story
The reliability of the results directly depends on the quantity and quality of the historical data on which the test was conducted.
* Always strive to use the maximum number of bars available (`Bars Count: 25,000`) so that your strategy is tested on different market cycles (rise, fall, flat).
* The results obtained on data for one month may differ dramatically from the results obtained on data for two years. The longer the testing period, the higher the confidence in the parameters found.
Conclusion
The Autoback Grid Lab is your personal research laboratory, designed to replace intuitive guesses and endless manual selection of settings with a systematic, data—driven approach. Experiment with different assets, timeframes, and settings ranges to find the unique combinations that best suit your trading style.

Hassi XAUUSD 15TF BUY/SELL (Anchored, Non-Repainting)What this does
Hassi XAUUSD 15TF BUY/SELL is a non-repainting signal indicator designed for XAUUSD (Gold) on the 15-minute timeframe (also works on BTCUSD). It blends EMA crossover + RSI + MACD with optional volume & volatility filters, and prints anchored BUY/SELL arrows that stay glued to their candle (no visual drifting on zoom/scale/replay). Optional confidence% labels help you judge signal quality at a glance.
Why it’s stable (no repaint)
Signals confirm only on bar close (barstate.isconfirmed).
Arrows/X marks are placed with label.new(x=bar_index, y=high/low, xloc.bar_index, yloc.abovebar/belowbar) so they remain exactly above/below the triggering candle.
No request.security for higher-TF lookaheads; no negative offsets.

Non-repainting notes
Signals lock on close; historical arrows are final.
Labels are bar/price anchored (no drift when you zoom or change scale).
Arrays trim old labels automatically to avoid drawing limits.
FAQ
Q: Why don’t past arrows move when I resize the chart?
A: They’re label.new() anchored to bar_index and bar high/low with xloc/yloc, so they stay with the candle.
Q: Can I turn it into a strategy/backtest?
A: Yes—wrap the same signals into strategy.entry/exit, but this release is an indicator by design.
Q: Will it work on BTC or other pairs/timeframes?
A: Yes, but it’s tuned for XAUUSD M15. Adapt filters for other markets.

Essa - Market Structure Crystal Ball SystemEssa - Market Structure Crystal Ball V2.0
Ever wished you had a glimpse into the market's next move? Stop guessing and start anticipating with the Market Structure Crystal Ball!
This isn't just another indicator that tells you what has happened. This is a comprehensive analysis tool that learns from historical price action to forecast the most probable future structure. It combines advanced pattern recognition with essential trading concepts to give you a unique analytical edge.
Key Features
The Predictive Engine (The Crystal Ball)
This is the core of the indicator. It doesn't just identify market structure; it predicts it.
Know the Odds: Get a real-time probability score (%) for the next structural point: Higher High (HH), Higher Low (HL), Lower Low (LL), or Lower High (LH).
Advanced Analysis: The engine considers the pattern sequence, the speed (velocity) of the move, and its size to find the most accurate historical matches.
Dynamic Learning: The indicator constantly updates its analysis as new price data comes in.
The All-in-One Dashboard
Your command center for at-a-glance information. No need to clutter your screen!
Market Phase: Instantly know if the market is in a "🚀 Strong Uptrend," "📉 Steady Downtrend," or "↔️ Consolidation."
Live Probabilities: See the updated forecasts for HH, HL, LL, and LH in a clean, easy-to-read format.
Confidence Level: The dashboard tells you how confident the algorithm is in its current prediction (Low, Medium, or High).
🎯 Dynamic Prediction Zones
Turn probabilities into actionable price areas.
Visual Targets: Based on the highest probability outcome, the indicator draws a target zone on your chart where the next structure point is likely to form.
Context-Aware: These zones are calculated using recent volatility and average swing sizes, making them adaptive to the current market conditions.
🔍 Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detector
Automatically identify and track key price imbalances.
Price Magnets: FVGs are automatically detected and drawn, acting as potential targets for price.
Smart Tracking: The indicator tracks the status of each FVG (Fresh, Partially Filled, or Filled) and uses this data to refine its predictions.
🌍 Trading Session Analysis
Never lose track of key session levels again.
Visualize Sessions: See the Asia, London, and New York sessions highlighted with colored backgrounds.
Key Levels: Automatically plots the high and low of each session, which are often critical support and resistance levels.
Breakout Alerts: Get notified when price breaks a session high or low.
📈 Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Context
Understand the bigger picture by integrating higher timeframe analysis directly onto your chart.
BOS & MSS: Automatically identifies Breaks of Structure (trend continuation) and Market Structure Shifts (potential reversals) from up to two higher timeframes.
Trade with the Trend: Align your intraday trades with the dominant trend for higher probability setups.
⚙️ How It Works in Simple Terms
1️⃣ It Learns: The indicator first identifies all the past swing points (HH, HL, LL, LH) and analyzes their characteristics (speed, size, etc.).
2️⃣ It Finds a Match: It looks at the most recent price action and searches through hundreds of historical bars to find moments that were almost identical.
3️⃣ It Analyzes the Outcome: It checks what happened next in those similar historical scenarios.
4️⃣ It Predicts: Based on that historical data, it calculates the probability of each potential outcome and presents it to you.
🚀 How to Use This Indicator in Your Trading
Confirmation Tool: Use a high probability score (e.g., >60% for a HH) to confirm your own bullish analysis before entering a trade.
Finding High-Probability Zones: Use the Prediction Zones as potential areas to take profit, or as reversal zones to watch for entries in the opposite direction.
Gauging Market Sentiment: Check the "Market Phase" on the dashboard. Avoid forcing trades when the indicator shows "😴 Low Volatility."
Confluence is Key: This indicator is incredibly powerful when combined with your existing strategy. Use it alongside supply/demand zones, moving averages, or RSI for ultimate confirmation.
We hope this tool gives you a powerful new perspective on the market. Dive into the settings to customize it to your liking!

ICT Structure Levels (ST/IT/LT) - v7 (by Jonas E)ICT Structure Levels (ST/IT/LT) – Neighbor-Wick Pivots
This indicator is designed for traders following ICT-style market structure analysis. It identifies Short-Term (ST), Intermediary (IT), and Long-Term (LT) swing highs and lows, but with a stricter filter that reduces false signals.
Unlike standard pivot indicators, this script requires not only that a bar makes a structural high/low, but also that the neighboring bars’ extremes are formed by wicks rather than flat-bodied candles. This wick condition helps confirm that the level is a true liquidity sweep and not just random price action.
How it works (conceptual):
Detects pivots based on user-defined left/right bars.
Validates that extremes on both sides of the pivot are wick-driven (high > body for highs, low < body for lows).
Marks valid STH/STL, ITH/ITL, and LTH/LTL directly on the chart with optional price labels.
Uses ATR offset for better label readability.
Alerts can be enabled to notify when a new structural level is confirmed.
How to use it:
Map market structure across multiple layers (ST/IT/LT).
Identify true liquidity grabs and avoid false highs/lows.
Integrate with Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHoCH) strategies.
Combine with other ICT concepts (Order Blocks, Fair Value Gaps, Liquidity Pools).
What makes it unique:
Most pivot indicators mark every high/low indiscriminately. This script filters pivots using wick validation, which significantly reduces noise and focuses only on the levels most relevant to liquidity-based trading strategies.
Market Structure: HH/HL/LH/LL (v6, simple)What it does
Labels swing High/Low and classifies structure as HH / HL / LH / LL after confirmation.
Uses confirmed fractals (pivothigh/pivotlow) → no repaint after confirmation (there is a right-bar confirmation delay).
Optional swing connectors (lines), optional plain H/L when structure label is not applicable.
Plots last confirmed High/Low levels as reference.
Alerts when a new HH/HL/LH/LL is formed.
How it works
Swings are detected with ta.pivothigh() / ta.pivotlow() using user-defined left and right.
A pivot is confirmed only after right bars on the right—this is the only delay. Once confirmed, the label does not repaint.
Inputs
Left bars & Right bars – fractal sensitivity.
Connect swings with lines – draw lines between consecutive swings.
Show bullish (HH/HL) / Show bearish (LH/LL) – filter what to display.
Show plain H/L – draw H/L when classification is not HH/HL/LH/LL yet.
Recommended settings
1H–4H: left=2, right=2 (responsive).
1D+: left=3, right=3 (cleaner swing map).
Alerts provided
HH formed – new Higher High confirmed.
HL formed – new Higher Low confirmed.
LH formed – new Lower High confirmed.
LL formed – new Lower Low confirmed.
Use them to automate structure tracking or feed your strategy rules.
Tips
Trend up: a sequence of HH + HL; Trend down: LH + LL.
Combine with VWAP/EMA, liquidity zones, or volume/CVD to avoid chasing late signals.
The script is intentionally simple and lightweight; BOS/CHoCH can be added in a future update.
Limitations / Notes
Because the tool relies on confirmed pivots, signals are delayed by right bars.
This is not financial advice and not a buy/sell system on its own.

Angle Market Structure [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
Angle Market Structure is a smart pivot-based tool that dynamically adapts to price action by accelerating breakout and breakdown detection. It draws market structure levels based on pivot highs/lows and gradually adjusts those levels closer to price using an angle threshold. Upon breakout, the indicator projects deviation zones with labeled levels (+1, +2, +3 or −1, −2, −3) to track price extension beyond structure.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Adaptive Market Structure: Uses pivots to define structure levels, which dynamically angle closer to price over time to capture breakouts sooner.
Breakout Acceleration: Pivot high levels decrease and pivot low levels increase each bar using a user-defined angle (based on ATR), improving reactivity.
Deviation Zones: Once a breakout or breakdown occurs, 3 deviation levels are projected to show how far price extends beyond the breakout point.
Count Labels: Each successful structure break is numbered sequentially, giving traders insight into momentum and trend persistence.
Visual Clarity: The script uses colored pivot points, trend lines, and extension labels for easy structural interpretation.
🔵 FEATURES
Calculates pivot highs and lows using a customizable length.
Applies an angle modifier (ATR-based) to gradually pull levels closer to price.
Plots breakout and breakdown lines in distinct colors with automatic extension.
Shows deviation zones (+1, +2, +3 or −1, −2, −3) after breakout with customizable size.
Color-coded labels for trend break count (bullish or bearish).
Dynamic label sizing and theme-aware colors.
Smart label positioning to avoid chart clutter.
Built-in limit for deviation zones to maintain clarity and performance.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use pivot-based market structure to identify breakout and breakdown zones.
Watch for crossover (up) or crossunder (down) events as trend continuation or reversal signals.
Observe +1/+2/+3 or -1/-2/-3 levels for overextension opportunities or trailing stop ideas.
Use breakout count as a proxy for trend strength—multiple counts suggest momentum.
Combine with volume or order flow tools for higher confidence entries at breakout points.
Adjust the angle setting to fine-tune sensitivity based on market volatility.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Angle Market Structure enhances traditional pivot-based analysis by introducing breakout acceleration and structured deviation tracking. It’s a powerful tool for traders seeking a cleaner, faster read on market structure and momentum strength—especially during impulsive price moves or structural transitions.

Cumulative Volume Delta (SB-1) 2.0
📈 Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) — Stair-Step + Threshold Alerts
🔍 Overview
This Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) tool visualizes aggressive buying and selling pressure in the market by plotting candlestick-style bars based on volume delta. It helps traders understand which side — buyers or sellers — is exerting more control on lower timeframes and highlights momentum shifts through stair-step patterns and delta threshold breaks. Resets to zero at EOD
Ideal for futures traders, scalpers, and intraday strategists looking for orderflow-based confirmation.
🧠 What Is CVD?
CVD (Cumulative Volume Delta) measures the difference between market buys and sells over a specific timeframe. When the delta is rising, it suggests buyers are being more aggressive. Falling delta suggests seller dominance.
This script aggregates volume delta from a lower timeframe and plots it in a higher timeframe context, allowing you to track microstructure shifts within larger candles.
📊 Features
✅ CVD Candlesticks
Each bar represents volume delta as an OHLC-style candle using:
Open: Delta at the start of the bar
High/Low: Peak delta range
Close: Final delta value at bar close
Teal candles = Net buying pressure
Red candles = Net selling pressure
✅ Threshold Levels (Key Visual Zones)
The script includes horizontal dashed lines at:
+5,000 and +10,000 → Signify strong buying pressure
-5,000 and -10,000 → Signify strong selling pressure
0 line → Neutrality line (no net pressure)
These levels act as volume-based support/resistance zones and breakout confirmation tools. For example:
A CVD cross above +5,000 shows buyers taking control
A CVD cross above +10,000 implies strong bullish momentum
A CVD cross below -5,000 or -10,000 signals intense selling pressure
📈 Stair-Step Pattern Detection
Detects two specific volume-based continuation setups:
Bullish Stair-Step: Both the high and low of the CVD candle are higher than the previous candle
Bearish Stair-Step: Both the high and low of the CVD candle are lower than the previous candle
These patterns often appear during trending moves and serve as confirmation of strength or continuation.
Visual markers:
🟢 Green triangles below bars = Bullish stair-step
🔴 Red triangles above bars = Bearish stair-step
🔔 Alert Conditions
Get real-time alerts when:
Bullish Stair-Step is detected
Bearish Stair-Step is detected
CVD crosses above +5,000
CVD crosses below -5,000
📢 Alerts only trigger on crossover, not every time CVD remains above or below. This avoids repetitive notifications.
⚙️ Inputs & Customization
Anchor Timeframe: The higher timeframe to which CVD data is applied (default: 1D)
Lower Timeframe: The timeframe used to calculate the CVD delta (default: 5 minutes)
Optional Override: Use custom timeframe toggle to force your own micro timeframe
📌 How to Use This CVD Indicator (Step-by-Step Guide)
✅ 1. Confirm Bias Using the Zero Line
The zero line (0 CVD) represents neutral pressure — neither buyers nor sellers are dominating.
Use it as your first filter:
🔼 If CVD is above 0 and rising → Buyer control
🔽 If CVD is below 0 and falling → Seller control
🧠 Tip: CVD rising while price is consolidating may signal hidden buyer interest.
✅ 2. Watch for Crosses of Key Levels: +5,000 and +10,000
These levels act as momentum thresholds:
Level Signal Type What It Means
+5,000 Buyer breakout Buyers are starting to dominate
+10,000 Strong bull bias Strong institutional or algorithmic buying flow
-5,000 Seller breakout Sellers are taking control
-10,000 Strong bear bias Heavy selling pressure is entering the market
Wait for CVD to cross above +5K or below -5K to confirm the active side.
Use these crossovers as entry triggers, breakout confirmations, or trade filters.
🔔 Alerts fire only when the level is first crossed, not every bar above/below.
✅ 3. Use Stair-Step Patterns for Continuation Confirmation
The indicator shows stair-step patterns using triangle signals:
🟢 Green triangle below bar = Bullish stair-step
Suggests a higher high and higher low in delta → buyers stepping up
🔴 Red triangle above bar = Bearish stair-step
Suggests lower highs and lower lows in delta → selling pressure building
Use stair-step signals:
To confirm a continuation of trend
As an entry or add-on signal
Especially after a threshold breakout
🧠 Example: If CVD breaks above +5K and forms bullish stairs → confirms strong trend, ideal for momentum entries.
✅ 4. Combine with Price Action or Structure
CVD works best when used with price, not in isolation. For example:
📉 Price makes a new low but CVD doesn’t → potential bullish divergence
📈 CVD surges while price lags → buyers are absorbing, breakout likely
Use it with:
VWAP
Orderblocks
Liquidity sweeps
Break of market structure/MSS/BOS
✅ 5.
Set Anchor Timeframe = Daily
Set Lower Timeframe = 5 minutes (default)
This lets you:
See intraday flow inside daily bars
Confirm whether a daily candle is being built on net buying or selling
🧠 You’re essentially seeing intra-bar aggression within a bigger time structure.
🧭 Example Trading Setup
Bullish Scenario:
CVD is rising and above 0
CVD crosses above +5,000 → alert fires
Green stair-step appears
Price breaks local resistance or liquidity sweep completes
✅ Consider long entry with structure and CVD alignment
🎯 Place stops below last stair-step or structural low
📌 Final Notes
This tool does not repaint and is designed to work in real-time across all futures, crypto, and equity instruments that support volume data. If your symbol does not provide volume, the script will notify you.
Use it in confluence with VWAP, liquidity zones, or structure breaks for high-confidence trades.
