Continuous Partial Buying Signals v7.1🇬🇧 English Description: Continuous Partial Buying Signals v7.1
This indicator is built on a long-term accumulation philosophy , not a traditional buy-sell strategy. Its main purpose is to systematically increase your position in an asset you believe in by identifying significant price drops as buying opportunities. It is a tool designed for long-term investors who want to automate the "buy the dip" or "Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA)" mindset.
How It Works
The logic follows a simple but powerful cycle: Find a Peak -> Wait for a Drop -> Signal a Buy -> Wait for a New Peak.
1. Identifies a Significant Peak: Instead of reacting to minor price spikes, the indicator looks back over a user-defined period (e.g., the last 200 candles) to find the highest price. This stable peak (marked with an orange circle) becomes the reference point for the current cycle.
2. Waits for a Pullback: The indicator then calculates the percentage drop from this locked-in peak.
3. Generates Buy Signals: When the price drops by the percentages you define (e.g., -5% and -10%), it plots a "BUY" signal on the chart. It will only signal once per level within the same cycle.
4. Resets the Cycle: This is the key. If the price recovers and establishes a new significant peak higher than the previous one, the entire cycle resets. The new peak becomes the new reference, and the buy signals are re-armed, allowing the indicator to perpetually find new buying opportunities in a rising market.
How to Get the Most Out of This Indicator
* Timeframe: It is highly recommended to use this on higher timeframes (4H, Daily, Weekly) to align with its long-term accumulation philosophy.
* Peak Lookback Period:
* Higher values (200, 300): Create more stable and less frequent signals. Ideal for long-term, patient investors.
* Lower values (50, 100): More sensitive to recent price action, resulting in more frequent cycles.
* Drop Percentages: Adjust these based on the asset's volatility.
* Volatile assets (Crypto): Consider larger percentages like 10%, 20%.
* Less volatile assets (Stocks, Indices): Smaller percentages like 3%, 5%, 8% might be more appropriate.
This indicator is a tool for disciplined, emotion-free accumulation. It does not provide sell signals.

LBM-Strategy Engine Pro: The Ultimate Confluence IndicatorOverview
Welcome to the Strategy Engine Pro , the ultimate confluence indicator designed for traders who demand precision and full control over their trading signals. This is not just an indicator; it is a complete, customizable strategy-building framework.
It seamlessly integrates three powerful concepts into a single, intuitive tool:
Advanced Moving Average Trend Analysis to define the market context.
An intelligent Support & Resistance Cycle Engine to identify key price levels.
A flexible 10-rule Strategy Builder that lets you design, test, and refine your own entry signals with surgical precision.
Core Features
1. Advanced Moving Average Trend Analysis
The indicator plots 5 fully configurable Moving Averages (MAs). You can choose the Period and Type (SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, RMA) for each one. But its true power lies in its unique color-coding system, which analyzes the slope and momentum of each MA, not just its price.
MA Color Code:
Green: The MA is in a strong, confirmed uptrend.
Red: The MA is in a strong, confirmed downtrend.
Yellow: The MA is flat or in a transitional (sideways) phase.
This provides an instant visual snapshot of the market trend across five different timeframes.
2. Support & Resistance Cycle Engine
Forget simple pivot points. This indicator incorporates a sophisticated engine that identifies and plots significant "Master Cycle" levels on your chart.
Anchored Levels: These S/R lines are persistent and intelligent. When a key resistance level is broken, it automatically "flips" and becomes the new anchored support level, and vice-versa. This accurately maps out the market's structural progression.
The Strategy Builder: Your Personal Trading Lab
This is the heart of the indicator. You have 10 sequential rules that allow you to define the exact conditions for a Buy signal. The Sell signal is generated as the logical, symmetrical opposite.
For each rule, you can configure:
Source A & Source B: Choose from a wide range of data points:
Price values: Close, Open, High, Low.
Previous candle values: Close Before, Open Before, etc.
Moving Average values: MA 1 through MA 5.
MA Trend Colors: MA 1 Color, MA 2 Color Before, etc.
Operator: Define the comparison logic:
Standard: >, <, >=, <=
Events: Crossover, Crossunder
Color Logic: Is Color, Is NOT Color, Turned Color, Ceased to be Color
Important Note on Sell Signals: Sell conditions are designed to be the symmetrical opposite of the buy conditions you create.
If Buy is Close > MA 1, Sell will be Close < MA 1.
If Buy is MA 1 Color Is Green, Sell will be MA 1 Color Is Red.
If Buy is MA 1 Color Turned Green, Sell will be MA 1 Color Turned Red.
This ensures your sell strategy mirrors the logic of your buy strategy, preventing the "inverse problem" of getting sell signals on every candle that isn't a buy signal.
Mastering the Connectors: ( ) AND and ( ) OR
The true power of the Strategy Builder lies in its connectors, which allow you to create complex, multi-layered logic. The connector on a rule defines how it connects to the next active rule.
AND & OR: These work as you'd expect, creating a continuous chain of conditions.
Rule 1 (AND) & Rule 2 is evaluated as (R1 AND R2).
( ) OR (The Group Separator): This is your most powerful tool. It acts like closing a parenthesis in an equation. It finalizes the current group of rules and connects it to the
next group with a big "OR".
Example: (R1 AND R2) OR (R3 AND R4)
This creates two possible paths for a signal.
- Rule 1: Condition R1, Connector AND
- Rule 2: Condition R2, Connector ( ) OR <-- This closes the first group and links to the next with OR.
- Rule 3: Condition R3, Connector AND
- Rule 4: Condition R4
( ) AND (The Super-Filter): This allows you to create a "master" condition that must be true in addition to other complex conditions.
Example: (R1 OR R2) AND (R3 OR R4)
This requires a condition from the first group and a condition from the second group to be true.
- Rule 1: Condition R1, Connector OR
- Rule 2: Condition R2, Connector ( ) AND <-- This closes the first OR group and links to the next with AND.
- Rule 3: Condition R3, Connector OR
- Rule 4: Condition R4
By strategically combining these connectors, you can build any logical trading scenario you can imagine. We look forward to seeing the powerful strategies the community creates with this engine.
ICT 00:00, 08:30, 09:30 & 13:30 Opens (NY) — Prior-Day HistoryICT 00:00, 08:30, 09:30 & 13:30 Opens (NY)
This is a derivative of ALPHAICTRADER’s open-source script, republished under the MPL-2.0 with clear attribution and documented changes. It plots four New-York–anchored intraday reference levels—0000, 0830, 0930, 1330—as short, right-padded stubs with clean side labels. Use these time anchors (ICT-style midnight + key US windows) to frame bias, volatility pockets, and intraday trade locations.
What’s original in this version (changes)
Right-padded stubs instead of chart-wide rays — each level ends N bars past the latest candle (configurable).
Side labels at the line tip — text-only labels (0000, 0830, 0930, 1330) that sit at the right end of each stub and update every bar.
Optional prior-day history — show Today only or Today + Prior Day; older lines/labels auto-pruned.
Per-anchor controls — Display, Style, Color, Width, and Show Label for each time.
What it plots (and why)
0000 (NY Midnight): daily session anchor for bias/liquidity context.
0830 (NY): macro data window (CPI/NFP/claims) where volatility often concentrates.
0930 (NY): US cash equity market open; opening-drive structure/acceptance tests.
1330 (NY): early-afternoon anchor for continuation vs. fade.
How it works (under the hood)
Session detection: time("1", session, "America/New_York"); first bar flagged via not na(ts) and na(ts ).
Anchor price: open of that first bar per session/day.
Rendering: lines drawn with xloc=bar_index from start bar to bar_index + Right Pad; x2 updates every bar (no extend.right).
Labels: placed at line.get_x2(line) + Label Pad, soft color variant; updated per bar to stay on the tip.
History: arrays keep either today only or today + yesterday and delete anything older immediately.
How to use
Add to any intraday chart (futures/FX/indices). Anchors are always NY-time; TradingView handles DST.
Inputs
00:00 / 08:30 / 09:30 / 13:30 (NY): Display, Line Style, Color, Width, Show Label
Right Edge: Right Pad (bars) · Label Pad (bars)
History: Show Prior Day (History) — off = today only; on = today + yesterday
Suggested pads: Right Pad 2–5 bars; Label Pad 0–2.
These are context anchors, not signals. Combine with your execution model (market structure, liquidity, FVG/OBs, etc.).

Today's 5min HH/LL LinesOverview
This indicator identifies the highest high (HH) and lowest low (LL) formed by the first 5 one-minute candles of the current trading day. Once calculated, it plots continuous horizontal lines at those price levels for the remainder of the day.
How it works
The script internally requests 1-minute data for the current symbol, regardless of your chart’s timeframe.
At the start of each new trading day, it resets counters.
It captures the highest high and lowest low across the first five completed 1-minute candles.
After the 5th one-minute bar closes, it draws:
A green horizontal line at the highest high.
A red horizontal line at the lowest low.
These lines extend to the right, covering the entire trading session, and automatically scale with zoom/pan.
At the next session, the old lines are deleted and recalculated for the new day.
Use cases
Helps spot early intraday support and resistance zones.
Useful for breakout or reversal strategies that monitor when price breaches the first 5-minute range (derived from 5x1m bars).
Can be combined with volume, momentum, or candlestick signals for high-probability entries.
Key features
Works on any timeframe — always uses 1-minute data for precision.
Shows lines only for the current day (no clutter from prior sessions).
Lines are dynamic and adaptive — they remain fixed at the calculated price but extend continuously across the chart.
Weekly Fibonacci Pivot Levelsthis indicator in simple ways, draw the weekly fibo zones based on calculations
weekly zones are drawn automatically based on previous week, and are updated once a new week is opened
you can use it the way you like or adapt to your trading strategy
i really use it at extremes and when a divergence is occurring in these zones
Zarattini Intra-day Threshold Bands (ZITB)This indicator implements the intraday threshold band methodology described in the research paper by Carlo Zarattini et al.
papers.ssrn.com
Overview:
Plots intraday threshold bands based on daily open/close levels.
Supports visualization of BaseUp/BaseDown levels and Threshold Upper/Lower bands.
Optional shading between threshold bands for easier interpretation.
Usage Notes / Limitations:
Originally studied on SPY (US equities), this implementation is adapted for NSE intraday market timing, specifically the NIFTY50 index.
Internally, 2-minute candles are used if the chart timeframe is less than 2 minutes.
Values may be inaccurate if the chart timeframe is more than 1 day.
Lookback days are auto-capped to avoid exceeding TradingView’s 5000-bar limit.
The indicator automatically aligns intraday bars across multiple days to compute average deltas.
For better returns, it is recommended to use this indicator in conjunction with VWAP and a volatility-based position sizing mechanism.
Can be used as a reference for Open Range Breakout (ORB) strategies.
Customizations:
Toggle plotting of base levels and thresholds.
Toggle shading between thresholds.
Line colors and styles can be adjusted in the Style tab.

TRAPPER TRENDLINES — PRICEDraws dynamic trendlines on price by connecting the two most recent confirmed swing points (highs to highs for resistance, lows to lows for support). Swings are defined with a symmetric left/right pivot window. Old anchors are ignored so lines stay attached to current structure. Optional break alerts are included.
How it works (plain language)
Pivots: A bar is a swing high (or low) only if it’s the most extreme point compared with a set number of bars on the left and the right.
Lines:
Support connects the last two confirmed swing lows.
Resistance connects the last two confirmed swing highs.
Lines can be extended right only or both left & right (toggle).
Recency filter: Only swings within the last N bars are kept. This avoids anchoring to very old pivots far from current price.
Alerts: Optional alerts fire when price closes above resistance or below support.
Inputs
Auto Settings
Auto pivot size by chart timeframe: When ON, the script picks a pivot size suitable for the current timeframe (you can scale it with Auto pivot multiplier). When OFF, the manual left/right inputs are used.
Auto pivot multiplier: Scales the auto pivot size (e.g., 1.5 makes pivots stricter).
Manual Pivots
Pivot Left / Pivot Right: Bars to the left/right required to confirm a swing. Example: Left=50 & Right=50 keeps only major swings.
Recency Filter
Use last N bars for pivots: Swings older than this window are discarded so trendlines stay relevant to current price.
Style
Support/Resistance color: Line colors.
Extend Left & Right: When ON, both endpoints extend; when OFF, lines extend to the right only.
Alerts
Enable Break Alerts: When ON, alert conditions are exposed:
Price: Break Up — close above resistance.
Price: Break Down — close below support.
Suggested settings
Higher timeframes (4H / 1D / 1W):
Manual: Pivot Left = 50, Pivot Right = 50, Use last N bars = 400–800.
Or enable Auto with Auto pivot multiplier = 1.0–1.5.
Intraday (15m / 30m / 1H):
Manual: Pivot Left = 30, Pivot Right = 30, Use last N bars = 300–500.
Or enable Auto with multiplier ≈ 1.0–1.2.
Pairing with RSI for confluence/divergence
This tool is designed to pair with a companion TRAPPER TRENDLINES — RSI (or any RSI trendline script):
To mirror swings, set RSI Pivot Lookback equal to the price Pivot Left/Right you use here.
Example: Price = 50/50 → RSI Pivot Lookback = 50.
Keep RSI at Length 14 with 70/30 channel for clarity.
Confluence: Price holds/rejects at a trendline while RSI trendline agrees.
Divergence: Price prints a higher high (resistance line rising) while RSI prints a lower high (RSI resistance line falling), or vice-versa for lows. Matching pivot windows makes these relationships clear and reduces false signals.
Reading the signals
Trendline touch/hold: Potential reaction area; wait for follow-through.
Break Up / Break Down (alerts): Close beyond the line. Consider retest behavior, higher-timeframe context, and volume/RSI confirmation.
Notes & limitations
Pivots require future bars to confirm (by design). Lines update as pivots confirm.
“Use last N bars” purposely ignores very old swings. Increase this value if you need legacy structure.
Lines are based on two most recent confirmed pivots per side; rapidly changing markets can replace anchors as new swings confirm.
This is a visual/analytical tool. No strategy entries/exits or performance claims are provided.
Compliance
This script is for educational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice. Trading involves risk. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. No promises of profit, accuracy, or performance are made.
Alerts (titles/messages)

Valid Monthly LevelsValid Monthly Levels (No Sweeps) + Smart Labels
This tool automatically plots the highs and lows of each completed monthly candle and tracks their validity in real time. A level is considered valid until it has been swept (price trades strictly beyond that high or low). Once swept, the line and label can either be removed or dimmed depending on your settings.
Key features:
Monthly highs and lows: Each month’s range is marked with horizontal levels that extend forward.
Valid vs. swept logic: Levels are only valid until breached; swept levels can be hidden or kept as dotted/grey lines.
Smart labels: Each level is labeled with the month and year (e.g., Sep ’25 H/L). On higher timeframes, labels sit at the candle; on lower timeframes, labels automatically shift to the right edge so they don’t disappear off-screen.
Customizable appearance: Choose colors for highs, lows, and swept levels; adjust line styles; and limit how many past months are shown.
Clutter control: Cap the maximum number of labels, so your chart stays readable even on small intraday timeframes.
This indicator is useful for traders who track monthly supply/demand extremes, liquidity sweeps, and higher-timeframe context when executing on lower timeframes.

Smart Structure Breaks & Order BlocksOverview (What it does)
The indicator “Smart Structure Breaks & Order Blocks” detects market structure using swing highs and lows, identifies Break of Structure (BOS) events, and automatically draws order blocks (OBs) from the origin candle. These zones extend to the right and change color/outline when mitigated or invalidated. By formalizing and automating part of discretionary analysis, it provides consistent zone recognition.
Main Components
Swing Detection: ta.pivothigh/ta.pivotlow identify confirmed swing points.
BOS Detection: Determines if the recent swing high/low is broken by close (strict mode) or crossover.
OB Creation: After a BOS, the opposite candle (bearish for bullish BOS, bullish for bearish BOS) is used to generate an order block zone.
Zone Management: Limits the number of zones, extends them to the right, and tracks tagged (mitigated) or invalidated states.
Input Parameters
Left/Right Pivot (default 6/6): Number of bars required on each side to confirm a swing. Higher values = smoother swings.
Max Zones (default 4): Maximum zones stored per direction (bull/bear). Oldest zones are overwritten.
Zone Confirmation Lookback (default 3): Ensures OB origin candle validity by checking recent highs/lows.
Show Swing Points (default ON): Displays triangles on swing highs/lows.
Require close for BOS? (default ON): Strict BOS (close required) vs loose BOS (line crossover).
Use candle body for zones (default OFF): Zones drawn from candle body (ON) or wick (OFF).
Signal Definition & Logic
Swing Updates: Latest confirmed pivots update lastHighLevel / lastLowLevel.
BOS (Break of Structure):
Bullish – close breaks last swing high.
Bearish – close breaks last swing low.
Only one valid BOS per swing (avoids duplicates).
OB Detection:
Bullish BOS → previous bearish candle with lowest low forms the OB.
Bearish BOS → previous bullish candle with highest high forms the OB.
Zones: Bull = green, Bear = red, semi-transparent, extended to the right.
Zone States:
Mitigated: Price touches the zone → border highlighted.
Invalidated:
Bull zone → close below → turns red.
Bear zone → close above → turns green.
Chart Appearance
Swing High: red triangle above bar
Swing Low: green triangle below bar
Bull OB: green zone (border highlighted on touch)
Bear OB: red zone (border highlighted on touch)
Invalid Zones: Bull zones turn reddish, Bear zones turn greenish
Practical Use (Trading Assistance)
Trend Following Entries: Buy pullbacks into green OBs in uptrends, sell rallies into red OBs in downtrends.
Focus on First Touch: First mitigation after BOS often has higher reaction probability.
Confluence: Combine with higher timeframe trend, volume, session levels, key price levels (previous highs/lows, VWAP, etc.).
Stops/Targets:
Bull – stop below zone, partial take profit at swing high or resistance.
Bear – stop above zone, partial take profit at swing low or support.
Parameter Tuning (per market/timeframe)
Pivot (6/6 → 4/4/8/8): Lower for scalping (3–5), medium for day trading (5–8), higher for swing trading (8–14). Increase to reduce noise.
Strict Break: ON to reduce false breaks in ranging markets; OFF for earlier signals.
Body Zones: ON for assets with long wicks, OFF for cleaner OBs in liquid instruments.
Zone Confirmation (default 3): Increase for stricter OB origin, fewer zones.
Max Zones (default 4 → 6–10): Increase for higher volatility, decrease to avoid clutter.
Strengths
Standardizes BOS and OB detection that is usually subjective.
Tracks mitigation and invalidation automatically.
Adaptable: allows body/wick zone switching for different instruments.
Limitations
Pivot-based: Signals appear only after pivots confirm (slight lag).
Zones reflect past balance: Can fail after new events (news, earnings, macro data).
Range-heavy markets: More false BOS; consider stricter settings.
Backtesting: This script is for drawing/visual aid; trading rules must be defined separately.
Workflow Example
Identify higher timeframe trend (4H/Daily).
On lower TF (15–60m), wait for BOS and new OB.
Enter on first mitigation with confirmation candle.
Stop beyond zone; targets based on R multiples and swing points.
FAQ
Q: Why are zones invalidated quickly?
A: Flow reversal after BOS. Adjust pivots higher, enable Strict mode, or switch to Body zones to reduce noise.
Q: What does “tagged” mean?
A: Price touched the zone once = mitigated. Implies some orders in that zone may have been filled.
Q: Body or Wick zones?
A: Wick zones are fine in clean markets. For volatile pairs with long wicks, body zones provide more realistic areas.
Customization Tips (Code perspective)
Zone storage: Currently ring buffer ((idx+1) % zoneLimit). Could prioritize keeping unmitigated zones.
Automated testing: Add strategy.entry/exit for rule-based backtests.
Multi-timeframe: Use request.security() for higher timeframe swings/BOS.
Visualization: Add labels for BOS bars, tag zones with IDs, count touches.
Summary
This indicator formalizes the cycle Swing → BOS → OB creation → Mitigation/Invalidation, providing consistent structure analysis and zone tracking. By tuning sensitivity and strictness, and combining with higher timeframe context, it enhances pullback/continuation trading setups. Always combine with proper risk management.
Machine Learning-Inspired Supply & Demand Zones [AlgoPoint]This indicator is a Smart Supply & Demand Zone tool, developed with principles inspired by Machine Learning (ML). It intelligently filters out market noise, allowing you to focus only on the most significant zones where institutional order flow is likely present.
💡 How It Works: Why Is This Indicator "Smart"?
Unlike traditional indicators that only measure simple price movements, this script uses an algorithm that asks the same critical questions an experienced market analyst would to qualify a zone:
- 1. Price Imbalance: How fast and aggressively did the price leave the zone? Our algorithm measures the body size of the "departure candle" relative to the current market volatility (ATR). A zone is only considered if it was formed by an explosive move that is statistically significant, indicating a major imbalance between buyers and sellers.
- 2. Volume Confirmation: Did the "smart money" participate in this move? The script checks if the volume on the departure candle was significantly higher than the recent average volume. A spike in volume confirms that the move was backed by institutional interest, adding strength and validity to the zone.
- 3. Valid Pivot Structure: Did the zone originate from a meaningful swing high or low? The algorithm first identifies a valid pivot structure, ensuring that zones are not drawn from insignificant or random price fluctuations.
Only when a potential zone passes these three critical tests—our "quality filter"—is it drawn on your chart.
🚀 Features & How to Use
Using the indicator is straightforward. You will see two primary types of boxes on your chart:
* 🟥 Red Box (Supply Zone): An area of potential resistance where selling pressure is likely to be strong. Look for potential shorting opportunities as the price approaches this zone.
* 🟩 Green Box (Demand Zone): An area of potential support where buying pressure is likely to be strong. Look for potential long opportunities as the price pulls back into this zone.
Dynamic Zone Management
This indicator is not static; it lives and breathes with the market:
- Fresh Zone: A newly formed zone appears in its full, vibrant color. These are the highest-probability zones as they have not yet been re-tested.
- Broken / Flipped Zone: You have full control over what happens when a zone is broken! In the settings, you can choose:
- Delete Zone: The zone will be removed completely when the price closes through it.
- Show as Broken (Flip): When broken, the zone will turn gray, stop extending, and remain on your chart. This is extremely useful for identifying Support/Resistance Flips, where a broken demand zone becomes new resistance, or a broken supply zone becomes new support.
⚙️ Settings & Customization
Fine-tune the indicator to match your personal trading style via the settings menu:
- Breakout Behavior: The most powerful feature. Choose between Delete Zone and Show as Broken (Flip) to customize your chart.
- Zone Finding Logic: Control the indicator's sensitivity.
- Selective: Requires both strong imbalance and high volume. Finds fewer, but higher-quality, zones.
- Moderate: Requires either strong imbalance or high volume. Finds more potential zones.
- Sensitivity Settings: Adjust the ATR Multiplier and Volume Multiplier to make the criteria for a "strong" zone stricter or looser.
Support and Resistance levels from Options DataINTRODUCTION
This script is designed to visualize key support and resistance levels derived from options data on TradingView charts. It overlays lines, labels, and boxes to highlight levels such as Put Walls (gamma support), Call Walls (gamma resistance), Gamma Flip points, Vanna levels, and more.
These levels are intended to help traders identify potential areas of price magnetism, reversal, or breakout based on options market dynamics. All calculations and visualizations are based on user-provided data pasted into the input field, as Pine Script cannot directly fetch external options data due to platform limitations (explained below).
For convenience, my website allows users to interact with a bot that will generate the string for up to 30 tickers at once getting nearly real-time data on demand (data is cached for 15min). With the output string pasted into this indicator, it's a bliss to shuffle through your portfolio and see those levels for each ticker.
The script is open-source under TradingView's terms, allowing users to study, modify, and improve it. It draws inspiration from common options-derived metrics like gamma exposure and vanna, which are widely discussed in financial literature. No external code is copied without rights; all logic is original or based on standard mathematical formulas.
How the Options Levels Are Calculated
The levels displayed by this script are not computed within Pine Script itself—instead, they rely on pre-calculated values provided by the user (via a pasted data string). These values are derived from options chain data fetched from financial APIs (e.g., using libraries like yfinance in Python). Here's a step-by-step overview of how these levels are generally calculated externally before being input into the script:
Fetching Options Data:
Historical and current options chain data for a ticker (e.g., strikes, open interest, volume, implied volatility, expirations) is retrieved for near-term expirations (e.g., up to 90 days).
Current stock price is obtained from recent history.
Gamma Support (Put Wall) and Resistance (Call Wall):
Gamma Calculation: For each option, gamma (the rate of change of delta) is computed using the Black-Scholes formula:
gamma = N'(d1) / (S * sigma * sqrt(T))
where S is the stock price, K is the strike, T is time to expiration (in years), sigma is implied volatility, r is the risk-free rate (e.g., 0.0445), and N'(d1) is the normal probability density function.
Weighted gamma is multiplied by open interest and aggregated by strike.
The Put Wall is the strike below the current price with the highest weighted gamma from puts (acting as support).
The Call Wall is the strike above the current price with the highest weighted gamma from calls (acting as resistance).
Short-term versions focus on strikes closer to the money (e.g., within 10-15% of the price).
Gamma Flip Level:
Net dealer gamma exposure (GEX) is calculated across all strikes:
GEX = sum (gamma * OI * 100 * S^2 * sign * decay)
where sign is +1 for calls/-1 for puts, and decay is 1 / sqrt(T).
The flip point is the price where net GEX changes sign (from positive to negative or vice versa), interpolated between strikes.
Vanna Levels:
Vanna (sensitivity of delta to volatility) is calculated:
vanna = -N'(d1) * d2 / sigma
where d2 = d1 - sigma * sqrt(T).
Weighted by open interest, the highest positive and negative vanna strikes are identified.
Other Levels:
S1/R1: Significant strikes with high combined open interest and volume (80% OI + 20% volume), below/above price for support/resistance.
Implied Move: ATM implied volatility scaled by S * sigma * sqrt(d/365) (e.g., for 7 days).
Call/Put Ratio: Total call contracts divided by put contracts (OI + volume).
IV Percentage: Average ATM implied volatility.
Options Activity Level: Average contracts per unique strike, binned into levels (0-4).
Stop Loss: Dynamically set below the lowest support (e.g., Put Wall, Gamma Flip), adjusted by IV (tighter in low IV).
Fib Target: 1.618 extension from Put Wall to Call Wall range.
Previous day levels are stored for comparison (e.g., to detect Call Wall movement >2.5% for alerts).
Effect as Support and Resistance in Technical Trading
Options levels like gamma walls influence price action due to market maker hedging:
Put Wall (Gamma Support): High put gamma below price creates a "magnet" effect—market makers buy stock as price falls, providing support. Traders might look for bounces here as entry points for longs.
Call Wall (Gamma Resistance): High call gamma above price leads to selling pressure from hedging, acting as resistance. Rejections here could signal trims, sells or even shorts.
Gamma Flip: Where gamma exposure flips sign, often a volatility pivot—crossing it can accelerate moves (bullish above, bearish below).
Vanna Levels: Positive/negative vanna indicate volatility sensitivity; crosses may signal regime shifts.
Implied Move: Shows expected range; prices outside suggest overextension.
S1/R1 and Fib Target: Volume/OI clusters act as classic S/R; Fib extensions project upside targets post-breakout.
In trading, these are not guarantees—combine with TA (e.g., volume, trends). High activity levels imply stronger effects; low CP ratio suggests bearish sentiment. Alerts trigger on proximities/crosses for awareness, not advice.
Limitations of the TradingView Platform for Data Pulling
TradingView's Pine Script is sandboxed for security and performance:
No direct internet access or API calls (e.g., can't fetch yfinance data in-script).
Limited to chart data/symbol info; no real-time options chains.
Inputs are static per load; updates require manual pasting.
Caching isn't persistent across sessions.
This prevents dynamic data pulling, ensuring scripts remain lightweight but requiring external tools for fresh data.
Creative Solution for On-Demand Data Pulling
To overcome these limitations, users can use external tools or scripts (e.g., Python-based) to fetch and compute levels on demand. The tool processes tickers, generates a formatted string (e.g., "TICKER:level1,level2,...;TIMESTAMP:unix;"), and users paste it into the script's input. This keeps data fresh without violating platform rules, as computation happens off-platform. For example, run a local script to query APIs and output the string—adaptable for any ticker.
Script Functionality Breakdown
Inputs: Custom data string (parsed for levels/timestamp); toggles for short-term/previous/Vanna/stop loss; style options (colors, transparency).
Parsing: Extracts levels for the chart symbol; gets timestamp for "updated ago" display.
Drawing: Lines/labels for levels; boxes for gamma zones/implied move; clears old elements on updates.
Info Panel: Top-right summary with metrics (CP ratio, IV, distances, activity); emojis for quick status.
Alerts: Conditions for proximities, crosses, bounces (e.g., 0.5% bounce from Put Wall).
Performance: Uses vars for persistence; efficient for real-time.

Algo + Trendlines :: Medium PeriodThis indicator helps me to avoid overlooking Trendlines / Algolines. So far it doesn't search explicitly for Algolines (I don't consider volume at all), but it's definitely now already not horribly bad.
These are meant to be used on logarithmic charts btw! The lines would be displayed wrong on linear charts.
The biggest challenge is that there are some technical restrictions in TradingView, f. e. a script stops executing if a for-loop would take longer than 0.5 sec.
So in order to circumvent this and still be able to consider as many candles from the past as possible, I've created multiple versions for different purposes that I use like this:
Algo + Trendlines :: Medium Period : This script looks for "temporary highs / lows" (meaning the bar before and after has lower highs / lows) on the daily chart, connects them and shows the 5 ones that are the closest to the current price (=most relevant). This one is good to find trendlines more thoroughly, but only up to 4 years ago.
Algo + Trendlines :: Long Period : This version looks instead at the weekly charts for "temporary highs / lows" and finds out which days caused these highs / lows and connects them, Taking data from the weekly chart means fewer data points to check whether a trendline is broken, which allows to detect trendlines from up to 12 years ago! Therefore it misses some trendlines. Personally I prefer this one with "Only Confirmed" set to true to really show only the most relevant lines. This means at least 3 candle highs / lows touched the line. These are more likely stronger resistance / support lines compared to those that have been touched only twice.
Very important: sometimes you might see dotted lines that suddenly stop after a few months (after 100 bars to be precise). This indicates you need to zoom further out for TradingView to be able to load the full line. Unfortunately TradingView doesn't render lines if the starting point was too long ago, so this is my workaround. This is also the script's biggest advantage: showing you lines that you might have missed otherwise since the starting bars were outside of the screen, and required you to scroll f. e back to 2015..
One more thing to know:
Weak colored line = only 2 "collision" points with candle highs/lows (= not confirmed)
Usual colored line = 3+ "collision" points (= confirmed)
Make sure to move this indicator above the ticker in the Object Tree, so that it is drawn on top of the ticker's candles!

PT FinderThis is mostly helpful to find potential price targets for Daytrades on the daily chart (if stronger resistances / supports are too far away).
Shows highs / lows of nearby "pivot" candles (higher high / lower low than both candles around) - depending on expected trade direction. Based on my experience these can be potential (albeit weak) resistance / support.
If it shows values only in the wrong trade direction: set a checkmark at "Invert bullish / bearish price targets" in the indicator settings
Also shows the ADR (blue line = yesterday's close MINUS Average Day Range) - which is helpful for Daytrades to see what price movement you could potentially expect for the day!
As a nice bonus it also shows gaps as yellow areas - in case you maybe missed them because you zoomed in / out too much on your daily chart.

Smart Money Footprint & Cost Basis Engine [AlgoPoint]Smart Money Footprint & Cost Basis Engine
This indicator is a comprehensive market analysis tool designed to identify the "footprints" of Smart Money (institutions, whales) and pinpoint high-probability reaction zones. Instead of relying on lagging averages, this engine analyzes the very structure of the market to find where large players have shown their hand.
How It Works: The Core Logic
The indicator operates on a multi-stage confirmation process to identify and validate Smart Money zones:
Smart Money Detection (The Trigger): The engine first scans the chart for signs of intense, urgent buying or selling. It does this by identifying Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) created by large, high-volume Displacement Candles. This is our initial Point of Interest (POI).
Cost Basis Calculation (The Average Price): Once a potential Smart Money move is detected, the indicator calculates the Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) for that specific move. This gives us a highly accurate estimate of the average price at which the large players entered their positions.
Historical Confirmation (The "Memory"): This is the indicator's most unique feature. It checks its historical database to see if a similar Smart Money move (in the same direction) has occurred in the same price area in the past. If a match is found, the zone's significance is confirmed.
Verified Cost Basis Zone (The Final Output): A zone that passes all the above checks is drawn on the chart as a high-probability Verified Cost Basis Zone. These are the "memory zones" where the market is likely to react upon a re-visit.
How to Use This Indicator
Cost Basis Zones (The Boxes):
Green Boxes: Bullish zones where Smart Money likely accumulated positions. When the price returns here, a BUY reaction is expected.
Red Boxes: Bearish zones where Smart Money likely distributed positions. When the price returns here, a SELL reaction is expected.
Zone Strength (★★★): Each zone is created with a star rating. More stars indicate a higher-confidence zone (based on factors like volume intensity and historical confirmation).
BUY/SELL Signals: A signal is only generated when the price enters a zone AND the confirmation filters (if enabled in the settings) are passed.
Zone Statuses:
Green/Red: Active and waiting to be tested.
Gray: The zone has been tested, and a signal was produced.
Dark Gray (Invalidated): The zone was broken decisively and is no longer considered valid support/resistance.
Key Settings
Signal Accuracy Filters: You can enable/disable three powerful filters to balance signal quantity and quality:
Momentum Confirmation (Stoch): Waits for momentum to align with the zone's direction.
Candlestick Confirmation (Engulfing): Waits for a strong reversal candle inside the zone.
Lower Timeframe MSS Confirmation: The most advanced filter; waits for a trend shift on a lower timeframe before giving a signal.
Historical Confirmation:
Require Historical Confirmation: Toggle the "Memory" feature on/off. Turn it off to see all potential SM zones.
Tolerance Calculation Method: Choose between a dynamic ATR Multiplier (recommended for all-around use) or a fixed Percentage to define the zone size.

The system creates resistance channels from highest highs and support channels from lowest lows with asymmetric multiplier ratios for optimal market reaction zones.
// Core Channel Calculation Framework
ATR = ta.atr(14)
// Resistance Channel Construction
Resistance_Basis = ta.ema(ta.highest(high, lookback), lookback)
Resistance_Upper = Resistance_Basis + (ATR * resistance_mult)
Resistance_Lower = Resistance_Basis - (ATR * resistance_mult * 0.3)
// Support Channel Construction
Support_Basis = ta.ema(ta.lowest(low, lookback), lookback)
Support_Upper = Support_Basis + (ATR * support_mult * 0.4)
Support_Lower = Support_Basis - (ATR * support_mult)
// Smoothing Application
Smoothed_Resistance_Upper = ta.ema(Resistance_Upper, smooth_periods)
Smoothed_Support_Lower = ta.ema(Support_Lower, smooth_periods)
🔶 Volatility-Adaptive Zone Framework
Features dynamic ATR-based width adjustment that expands channels during high-volatility periods and contracts during consolidation phases, preventing false signals while maintaining sensitivity to genuine breakouts. The asymmetric multiplier system optimizes zone boundaries for realistic market behavior patterns.
// Dynamic Volatility Adjustment
Channel_Width_Resistance = ATR * resistance_mult
Channel_Width_Support = ATR * support_mult
// Asymmetric Zone Optimization
Resistance_Zone = Resistance_Basis ± (ATR_Multiplied * )
Support_Zone = Support_Basis ± (ATR_Multiplied * )
🔶 Step-Like Boundary Evolution
Creates horizontal step boundaries that update on smoothed bound changes, providing visual history of evolving support and resistance levels with performance-optimized array management limited to 50 historical levels for clean chart presentation and efficient processing.
