Smart Inside Bar Zones by Dinkan🔹 How It Works
An Inside Bar is formed when a candle’s high and low are completely within the previous candle’s range.
The indicator detects this structure in real time, creates a visual box around it, and extends the zone until the pattern is broken.
Inside Bar candles can be optionally highlighted with a custom color to make them stand out clearly on the chart.
🔹 Features
✅ Automatic Inside Bar detection
✅ Dynamic Inside Bar zone boxes with custom fill & border color
✅ Inside candle body highlighting with user-defined color
✅ Adjustable transparency and border style
✅ Option to display only the latest Inside Bar zone for cleaner charts
🔹 Usage
Traders can use Inside Bar zones to:
Study price compression and breakout regions
Observe range behavior and trend continuation setups
Combine with other tools like volume or support/resistance analysis
🔹 Customization
Change box fill and border color
Adjust Inside Candle color for better visibility
Set transparency and choose whether to show all or only the latest box

Asia Range Breakout Asia Range Breakout
Description:
Asia Range Breakout is a sophisticated, multi-filter trading tool designed to identify high-probability breakout opportunities during the core Asian trading session. By combining session-based range analysis with advanced confirmation filters like Heiken Ashi momentum, Ichimoku baseline trends, and EMA alignment, this indicator helps traders capture decisive moves while filtering out market noise.
Tired of false breakouts? This system provides a structured framework to trade the Sydney and Tokyo sessions with precision and confidence.
Key Features:
Multi-Session Range Tracking:
Monitors 6 distinct pre-defined Asian sessions (Sydney Box, Tokyo Pre-Open, Tokyo Launch, etc.).
Dynamically plots High and Low boundaries for each session (Teal for Highs, Red for Lows).
Individually toggleable sessions to focus on your preferred trading window.
Smart Alert & Signal System:
Generates alerts based on Heiken Ashi candle closings relative to session ranges.
Dual-Size Signals: Differentiates between "Large" breakouts (outside the range) and "Small" signals (within the range).
Configurable alert timeframe for confirmation candle closure.Built-in Sound Alerts for real-time notifications.
Advanced Confirmation Filters:
Heiken Ashi Momentum Filter: Ensures breakout candles have significant momentum, adjustable via a threshold multiplier.
EMA 200 Filter: Confirms the breakout's alignment with the broader trend.
Ichimoku Baseline (Kijun-sen) Filter: Uses a dynamic support/resistance level for additional confirmation.
Ichimoku Baseline Divergence Filter: A unique feature that requires the baseline's slope to match the breakout direction (Bullish for buys, Bearish for sells).
ATR Volatility Filter: (Optional) Ensures the breakout candle has sufficient range relative to recent market volatility.
Visual Enhancements:
Take-Profit Lines: Projects profit targets using ATR and connects consecutive alerts with a trendline.
Heiken Ashi Overlay: Displays smoothed Heiken Ashi candles directly on the main chart for cleaner trend visualization.
Divergence Trend Line: Visually plots the slope of the Ichimoku Baseline for quick trend assessment.
Session Background Highlighter: Shades the active sessions for easy time reference.
Comprehensive Debug Info Box: Provides real-time feedback on filter status, perfect for strategy validation and learning.
Usage Instructions & Tips:
1. Initial Setup:
Start simple! Apply the indicator to a 5-minute or 1-minute chart.
Recommended Instruments:
Forex: Major pairs like AUD/USD , USD/JPY or EUR/JPY.
Indices: `NAS100` (Nasdaq), `US30` (Dow Jones), `JP225` (Nikkei 225).
Commodities: `XAUUSD` (Gold).
Initially, enable only the Sydney Box (00:30 - 03:15 UTC) as it is the most robust session, then explore others.
2. Interpreting the Signals:
Large Green Arrow (Above Bar): A strong BUY signal. The Heiken Ashi candle closed above the session's High, and all enabled filters are confirmed.
Small Green Arrow (Above Bar): A moderate BUY signal. The candle closed bullishly but within the session range.
Large Red Arrow (Below Bar): A strong SELL signal. The Heiken Ashi candle closed below the session's Low, with filter confirmation.
Small Red Arrow (Below Bar): A moderate SELL signal. The candle closed bearishly but within the session range.
3. Optimizing Your Strategy:
Filter Tuning: The default filters are balanced. Adjust them based on your risk appetite:
Increase the Heiken Ashi Threshold (e.g., to 0.2) for fewer, but stronger signals.
Disable filters like ATR or Divergence if you find them too restrictive.
The Power of Divergence: The Ichimoku Divergence filter is a powerful trend-confirmation tool. Pay close attention to it for the highest-quality signals.
Use the Debug Box: Enable the "Show Debug Info Box" to see exactly why a signal did or did not trigger. This is invaluable for understanding the indicator's logic and avoiding bad trades.
4. Risk Management:
The TP Lines provide a logical profit target based on market volatility. Consider using them for setting take-profit orders.
Always use a stop-loss. A logical level is the opposite side of the session range (e.g., for a buy signal, place a stop below the session low).
You're very welcome! I'm glad I could help you create a professional tool. Wishing you great success with your Trading! 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀
HTF Cross Breakout [CHE] HTF Cross Breakout — Detects higher timeframe close crossovers for breakout signals, anchors VWAP for trend validation, and flags continuations or traps with visual extensions for delta percent and stop levels.
Summary
This indicator spots moments when the current chart's close price crosses a higher timeframe close, marking potential breakouts only when the current bar shows directional strength. It anchors a volume-weighted average price line from the breakout point to track trend health, updating labels to show if the move continues or reverses into a trap. Extensions add a dotted line linking the breakout level to the current close with percent change display, plus a stop-loss marker at the VWAP end. Signals gain robustness from higher timeframe confirmation and anti-repainting options, reducing noise in live bars compared to simple crossover tools.
Motivation: Why this design?
Traders often face false breakouts from intrabar wiggles on lower timeframes, especially without higher timeframe alignment, leading to whipsaws in volatile sessions. This design uses higher timeframe close as a stable reference for crossover detection, combined with anchored volume weighting to gauge sustained momentum. It addresses these by enforcing bar confirmation and directional filters, providing clearer entry validation and risk points without overcomplicating the chart.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Reference baseline
Standard crossover indicators like moving average crosses operate solely on the chart timeframe, ignoring higher timeframe context and lacking volume anchoring.
Architecture differences
- Higher timeframe data pulls via security calls with optional repainting control for stability.
- Anchored VWAP resets at each signal, accumulating from the breakout bar only.
- Label dynamics update in real-time for continuation checks, with extensions for visual delta and stop computation.
- Event-driven line finalization prunes old elements after a set bar extension.
Practical effect
Charts show persistent lines and labels that extend live but finalize cleanly on new events, avoiding clutter. This matters for spotting trap reversals early via label color shifts, and extensions provide quick risk visuals without manual calculations, improving decision speed in trend trades.
How it works (technical)
The indicator first determines a higher timeframe based on user selection, pulling its close price securely. It checks for crossovers or crossunders of the current close against this higher close, but only triggers on confirmed bars with matching directional opens and closes. On a valid event, a horizontal line and label mark the higher close level, while a dashed VWAP line starts accumulating typical price times volume from that bar onward. During the active phase, the breakout line extends to the current bar, the label repositions and updates text based on whether the current close holds above or below the level for bulls or bears. A background tint warns if the close deviates adversely from the current VWAP. Extensions draw a vertical dotted line at the last bar between the breakout level and close, placing a midpoint label with percent difference; separately, a label at the VWAP end shows a computed stop price. Persistent variables track the active state and accumulators, resetting on new events after briefly extending old elements. Repaint risk from security calls is mitigated by confirmed bar gating or user opt-in.
Parameter Guide
Plateau Length (reserved for future, currently unused): Sets a length for potential plateau detection in extensions; default 3, minimum 1. Higher values would increase stability but are not active yet—leave at default to avoid tuning.
Line Width: Controls thickness of breakout, VWAP, and extension lines; default 2, range 1 to 5. Thicker lines improve visibility on busy charts but may obscure price action—use 1 for clean views, 3 or more for emphasis.
+Bars after next HTF event (finalize old, then delete): Extends old lines and labels by this many bars before deletion on new signals; default 20, minimum 0. Shorter extensions keep charts tidy but risk cutting visuals prematurely; longer aids review but builds clutter over time.
Evaluate label only on HTF close (prevents gray traps intrabar): When true, label updates wait for higher timeframe confirmation; default true. Enabling reduces intrabar flips for stabler signals, though it may delay feedback—disable for faster live trading at repaint cost.
Allow Repainting: Permits real-time security data without confirmation offset; default false. False ensures historical accuracy but lags live bars; true speeds updates but can repaint on HTF closes.
Timeframe Type: Chooses HTF method—Auto Timeframe (dynamic steps up), Multiplier (chart multiple), or Manual (fixed string); default Auto Timeframe. Auto adapts to chart scale for convenience; Multiplier suits custom scaling like 5 times current; Manual for precise like 1D on any chart.
Multiplier for Alternate Resolution: Scales chart timeframe when Multiplier type selected; default 5, minimum 1. Values near 1 mimic current resolution for subtle shifts; higher like 10 jumps to broader context, increasing signal rarity.
Manual Resolution: Direct timeframe string like 60 for 1H when Manual type; default 60. Match to trading horizon—shorter for swing, longer for positional—to balance frequency and reliability.
Show Extension 1: Toggles dotted line and delta percent label between breakout level and current close; default true. Disable to simplify for basic use, enable for precise momentum tracking.
Dotted Line Width: Thickness for Extension 1 line; default 2, range 1 to 5. Align with main Line Width for consistency.
Text Size: Size for delta percent label; options tiny, small, normal, large; default normal. Smaller reduces overlap on dense charts; larger aids glance reads.
Decimals for Δ%: Precision in percent change display; default 2, range 0 to 6. Fewer decimals speed reading; more suit low-volatility assets.
Positive Δ Color: Hue for upward percent changes; default lime. Choose contrasting for visibility.
Negative Δ Color: Hue for downward percent changes; default red. Pair with positive for quick polarity scan.
Dotted Line Color: Color for Extension 1 line; default gray. Neutral tones blend well; brighter for emphasis.
Background Transparency (0..100): Opacity for delta label background; default 90. Higher values fade for subtlety; lower solidifies for readability.
Show Extension 2: Toggles stop-loss label at VWAP end; default true. Turn off for entry focus only.
Stop Method: Percent from VWAP end or fixed ticks; options Percent, Ticks; default Percent. Percent scales with price levels; Ticks suits tick-based instruments.
Stop %: Distance as fraction of VWAP for Percent method; default 1.0, step 0.05, minimum 0.0. Tighter like 0.5 reduces risk but increases stops; wider like 2.0 allows breathing room.
Stop Ticks: Tick count offset for Ticks method; default 20, minimum 0. Adjust per asset volatility—fewer for tight control.
Price Decimals: Rounding for stop price text; default 4, range 0 to 10. Match syminfo.precision for clean display.
Text Size: Size for stop label; options tiny, small, normal, large; default normal. Scale to chart zoom.
Text Color: Foreground for stop text; default white. Ensure contrast with background.
Inherit VWAP Color (BG tint): Bases stop label background on VWAP hue; default true. True maintains theme; false allows custom black base.
BG Transparency (0..100): Opacity for stop label background; default 0. Zero for no tint; up to 100 for full fade.
Reading & Interpretation
Breakout lines appear green for bullish crosses or red for bearish, extending live until a new event finalizes them briefly then deletes. Labels start blank, updating to Bull Cont. or Bear Cont. in matching colors if holding the level, or gray Bull Trap/Bear Trap on reversal. VWAP dashes yellow for bulls, orange for bears, sloping with accumulated volume weight—deviations trigger faint red background warnings. Extension 1's dotted vertical shows at the last bar, with midpoint label green/red for positive/negative percent from breakout to close. Extension 2 places a left-aligned label at VWAP end with stop price and method note, tinted to VWAP for context.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
For trend following, enter long on green Bull Cont. labels above VWAP with higher highs confirmation, filtering via rising structure; short on red Bear Cont. below. Pair with volume surges or RSI above 50 for bulls to avoid traps. For exits, trail stops using the Extension 2 level, tightening on warnings or gray labels—aggressive on continuations, conservative post-trap. In multi-timeframe setups, use default Auto on 15m charts for 1H signals, scaling multiplier to 4 for daily context on hourly; test on forex/stocks where volume is reliable, avoiding low-liquidity assets.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Signals confirm on bar close with HTF gating when strict mode active, but live bars may update if repainting enabled—opt false for backtest fidelity, true for intraday speed. Security calls risk minor repaints on HTF closes, mitigated by confirmation offsets. Resources cap at 1000 bars back, 50 lines/labels total, with event prunes to stay under budgets—no loops, minimal arrays. Limits include VWAP lag in low-volume periods and dependency on accurate HTF data; gaps or holidays may skew anchors.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Defaults suit 5m-1H charts on liquid assets: Auto HTF, no repaint, 1% stops. For choppy markets with excess signals, enable strict eval and bump multiplier to 10 for rarer triggers. If sluggish in trends, shorten extend bars to 10 and allow repainting for quicker visuals. On high-vol like crypto, widen stop % to 2.0 and use Ticks method; for stables like indices, tighten to 0.5% and keep Percent.
What this indicator is—and isn’t
This is a signal visualization layer for breakout confirmation and basic risk marking, best as a filter in discretionary setups. It isn’t a standalone system or predictive oracle—combine with price structure, news awareness, and sizing rules for real edges.

Pivot Trend Flow [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
Pivot Trend Flow turns raw swing points into a clean, adaptive trend band. It averages recent pivot highs and lows to form two dynamic reference levels; when price crosses above the averaged highs, trend flips bullish and a green band is drawn; when it crosses below the averaged lows, trend flips bearish and a red band is drawn. During an uptrend the script highlights breakouts of previous pivot highs with ▲ labels, and during a downtrend it flags breakdowns of previous pivot lows with ▼ labels—making structure shifts and continuation signals obvious.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Pivot-Based Averages : Recent pivot highs/lows are collected and averaged to create smoothed upper/lower reference levels.
if not na(ph)
phArray.push(ph)
if not na(pl)
plArray.push(pl)
if phArray.size() > avgWindow
upper := phArray.avg()
phArray.shift()
if plArray.size() > avgWindow
lower := plArray.avg()
plArray.shift()
Trend State via Crosses : Close above the averaged-highs ⇒ bullish trend; close below the averaged-lows ⇒ bearish trend.
Trend Band : A colored band (green/red) is plotted and optionally filled to visualize the active regime around price.
Structure Triggers :
In bull mode the tool watches for prior pivot-high breakouts (▲).
In bear mode it watches for prior pivot-low breakdowns (▼).
🔵 FEATURES
Adaptive Trend Detection from averaged pivot highs/lows.
Clear Visuals : Green band in uptrends, red band in downtrends; optional fill for quick read.
Breakout/Breakdown Labels :
▲ marks breaks of previous pivot highs in uptrends
▼ marks breaks of previous pivot lows in downtrends
Minimal Clutter : Uses compact lines and labels that extend only on confirmation.
Customizable Colors & Fill for trend states and band styling.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Pivot Length : Sets how swing points are detected. Smaller = more reactive; larger = smoother.
Avg Window (pivots) : How many recent pivot highs/lows are averaged. Increase to stabilize the band; decrease for agility.
Read the Band :
Green band active ⇒ prioritize longs, pullback buys toward the band.
Red band active ⇒ prioritize shorts, pullback sells toward the band.
Trade the Triggers :
In bull mode, ▲ on a prior pivot-high break can confirm continuation.
In bear mode, ▼ on a prior pivot-low break can confirm continuation.
Combine with Context : Use HTF trend, S/R, or volume for confluence and to filter signals.
Fill Color Toggle : Enable/disable band fill to match your chart style.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Pivot Trend Flow converts swing structure into an actionable, low-lag trend framework. By blending averaged pivots with clean breakout/breakdown labels, it clarifies trend direction, timing, and continuation spots—ideal as a core bias tool or a confirmation layer in any trading system.
Trend Fib Zone Bounce (TFZB) [KedArc Quant]Description:
Trend Fib Zone Bounce (TFZB) trades with the latest confirmed Supply/Demand zone using a single, configurable Fib pullback (0.3/0.5/0.6). Trade only in the direction of the most recent zone and use a single, configurable fib level for pullback entries.
• Detects market structure via confirmed swing highs/lows using a rolling window.
• Draws Supply/Demand zones (bearish/bullish rectangles) from the latest MSS (CHOCH or BOS) event.
• Computes intra zone Fib guide rails and keeps them extended in real time.
• Triggers BUY only inside bullish zones and SELL only inside bearish zones when price touches the selected fib and closes back beyond it (bounce confirmation).
• Optional labels print BULL/BEAR + fib next to the triangle markers.
What it does
Finds structure using confirmed swing highs/lows (you choose the confirmation length).
Builds the latest zone (bullish = demand, bearish = supply) after a CHOCH/BOS event.
Draws intra-zone “guide rails” (Fib lines) and extends them live.
Signals only with the trend of that zone:
BUY inside a bullish zone when price tags the selected Fib and closes back above it.
SELL inside a bearish zone when price tags the selected Fib and closes back below it.
Optional labels print BULL/BEAR + Fib next to triangles for quick context
Why this is different
Most “zone + fib + signal” tools bolt together several indicators, or fire counter-trend signals because they don’t fully respect structure. TFZB is intentionally minimal:
Single bias source: the latest confirmed zone defines direction; nothing else overrides it.
Single entry rule: one Fib bounce (0.3/0.5/0.6 selectable) inside that zone—no counter-trend trades by design.
Clean visuals: you can show only the most recent zone, clamp overlap, and keep just the rails that matter.
Deterministic & transparent: every plot/label comes from the code you see—no external series or hidden smoothing
How it helps traders
Cuts decision noise: you always know the bias and the only entry that matters right now.
Forces discipline: if price isn’t inside the active zone, you don’t trade.
Adapts to volatility: pick 0.3 in strong trends, 0.5 as the default, 0.6 in chop.
Non-repainting zones: swings are confirmed after Structure Length bars, then used to build zones that extend forward (they don’t “teleport” later)
How it works (details)
*Structure confirmation
A swing high/low is only confirmed after Structure Length bars have elapsed; the dot is plotted back on the original bar using offset. Expect a confirmation delay of about Structure Length × timeframe.
*Zone creation
After a CHOCH/BOS (momentum shift / break of prior swing), TFZB draws the new Supply/Demand zone from the swing anchors and sets it active.
*Fib guide rails
Inside the active zone TFZB projects up to five Fib lines (defaults: 0.3 / 0.5 / 0.7) and extends them as time passes.
*Entry logic (with-trend only)
BUY: bar’s low ≤ fib and close > fib inside a bullish zone.
SELL: bar’s high ≥ fib and close < fib inside a bearish zone.
*Optionally restrict to one signal per zone to avoid over-trading.
(Optional) Aggressive confirm-bar entry
When do the swing dots print?
* The code confirms a swing only after `structureLen` bars have elapsed since that candidate high/low.
* On a 5-min chart with `structureLen = 10`, that’s about 50 minutes later.
* When the swing confirms, the script plots the dot back on the original bar (via `offset = -structureLen`). So you *see* the dot on the old bar, but it only appears on the chart once the confirming bar arrives.
> Practical takeaway: expect swing markers to appear roughly `structureLen × timeframe` later. Zones and signals are built from those confirmed swings.
Best timeframe for this Indicator
Use the timeframe that matches your holding period and the noise level of the instrument:
* Intraday :
* 5m or 15m are the sweet spots.
* Suggested `structureLen`:
* 5m: 10–14 (confirmation delay \~50–70 min)
* 15m: 8–10 (confirmation delay \~2–2.5 hours)
* Keep Entry Fib at 0.5 to start; try 0.3 in strong trends, 0.6 in chop.
* Tip: avoid the first 10–15 minutes after the open; let the initial volatility set the early structure.
* Swing/overnight:
* 1h or 4h.
* `structureLen`:
* 1h: 6–10 (6–10 hours confirmation)
* 4h: 5–8 (20–32 hours confirmation)
* 1m scalping: not recommended here—the confirmation lag relative to the noise makes zones less reliable.
Inputs (all groups)
Structure
• Show Swing Points (structureTog)
o Plots small dots on the bar where a swing point is confirmed (offset back by Structure Length).
• Structure Length (structureLen)
o Lookback used to confirm swing highs/lows and determine local structure. Higher = fewer, stronger swings; lower = more reactive.
Zones
• Show Last (zoneDispNum)
o Maximum number of zones kept on the chart when Display All Zones is off.
• Display All Zones (dispAll)
o If on, ignores Show Last and keeps all zones/levels.
• Zone Display (zoneFilter): Bullish Only / Bearish Only / Both
o Filters which zone types are drawn and eligible for signals.
• Clean Up Level Overlap (noOverlap)
o Prevents fib lines from overlapping when a new zone starts near the previous one (clamps line start/end times for readability).
Fib Levels
Each row controls whether a fib is drawn and how it looks:
• Toggle (f1Tog…f5Tog): Show/hide a given fib line.
• Level (f1Lvl…f5Lvl): Numeric ratio in . Defaults active: 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 (0 and 1 off by default).
• Line Style (f1Style…f5Style): Solid / Dashed / Dotted.
• Bull/Bear Colors (f#BullColor, f#BearColor): Per-fib color in bullish vs bearish zones.
Style
• Structure Color: Dot color for confirmed swing points.
• Bullish Zone Color / Bearish Zone Color: Rectangle fills (transparent by default).
Signals
• Entry Fib for Signals (entryFibSel): Choose 0.3, 0.5 (default), or 0.6 as the trigger line.
• Show Buy/Sell Signals (showSignals): Toggles triangle markers on/off.
• One Signal Per Zone (oneSignalPerZone): If on, suppresses additional entries within the same zone after the first trigger.
• Show Signal Text Labels (Bull/Bear + Fib) (showSignalLabels): Adds a small label next to each triangle showing zone bias and the fib used (e.g., BULL 0.5 or BEAR 0.3).
How TFZB decides signals
With trend only:
• BUY
1. Latest active zone is bullish.
2. Current bar’s close is inside the zone (between top and bottom).
3. The bar’s low ≤ selected fib and it closes > selected fib (bounce).
• SELL
1. Latest active zone is bearish.
2. Current bar’s close is inside the zone.
3. The bar’s high ≥ selected fib and it closes < selected fib.
Markers & labels
• BUY: triangle up below the bar; optional label “BULL 0.x” above it.
• SELL: triangle down above the bar; optional label “BEAR 0.x” below it.
Right-Panel Swing Log (Table)
What it is
A compact, auto-updating log of the most recent Swing High/Low events, printed in the top-right of the chart.
It helps you see when a pivot formed, when it was confirmed, and at what price—so you know the earliest bar a zone-based signal could have appeared.
Columns
Type – Swing High or Swing Low.
Date – Calendar date of the swing bar (follows the chart’s timezone).
Swing @ – Time of the original swing bar (where the dot is drawn).
Confirm @ – Time of the bar that confirmed that swing (≈ Structure Length × timeframe after the swing). This is also the earliest moment a new zone/entry can be considered.
Price – The swing price (high for SH, low for SL).
Why it’s useful
Clarity on repaint/confirmation: shows the natural delay between a swing forming and being usable—no guessing.
Planning & journaling: quick reference of today’s pivots and prices for notes/backtesting.
Scanning intraday: glance to see if you already have a confirmed zone (and therefore valid fib-bounce entries), or if you’re still waiting.
Context for signals: if a fib-bounce triangle appears before the time listed in Confirm @, it’s not a valid trade (you were too early).
Settings (Inputs → Logging)
Log swing times / Show table – turn the table on/off.
Rows to keep – how many recent entries to display.
Show labels on swing bar – optional tags on the chart (“Swing High 11:45”, “Confirm SH 14:15”) that match the table.
Recommended defaults
• Structure Length: 10–20 for intraday; 20–40 for swing.
• Entry Fib for Signals: 0.5 to start; try 0.3 in stronger trends and 0.6 in choppier markets.
• One Signal Per Zone: ON (prevents over trading).
• Zone Display: Both.
• Fib Lines: Keep 0.3/0.5/0.7 on; turn on 0 and 1 only if you need anchors.
Alerts
Two alert conditions are available:
• BUY signal – fires when a with trend bullish bounce at the selected fib occurs inside a bullish zone.
• SELL signal – fires when a with trend bearish bounce at the selected fib occurs inside a bearish zone.
Create alerts from the chart’s Alerts panel and select the desired condition. Use Once Per Bar Close to avoid intrabar flicker.
Notes & tips
• Swing dots are confirmed only after Structure Length bars, so they plot back in time; zones built from these confirmed swings do not repaint (though they extend as new bars form).
• If you don’t see a BUY where you expect one, check: (1) Is the active zone bullish? (2) Did the candle’s low actually pierce the selected fib and close above it? (3) Is One Signal Per Zone suppressing a second entry?
• You can hide visual clutter by reducing Show Last to 1–3 while keeping Display All Zones off.
Glossary
• CHOCH (Change of Character): A shift where price breaks beyond the last opposite swing while local momentum flips.
• BOS (Break of Structure): A cleaner break beyond the prior swing level in the current momentum direction.
• MSS: Either CHOCH or BOS – any event that spawns a new zone.
Extension ideas (optional)
• Add fib extensions (1.272 / 1.618) for target lines.
• Zone quality score using ATR normalization to filter weak impulses.
• HTF filter to only accept zones aligned with a higher timeframe trend.

Stacey Burke Signal Day LTE“Previously published as ‘Day Zero Fakeout Detector MTF’”
Stacey Burke Signal Day LTE
Automatic detection of Day Zero, Inside Days, and Outside Days for Stacey Burke’s intraday playbook
🔎 Stacey Burke’s Signal Days
This indicator highlights the key daily patterns that often lead to high-probability intraday setups in Stacey Burke’s methodology:
1️⃣ Day Zero
The reset days within a 3-day cycle (e.g. breakout → continuation → exhaustion/reversal).
Can mark the beginning of a new directional phase.
Trades back inside the prior range after a Peak Formation High (PFH) or Peak Formation Low (PFL).
Bias: Look for measured parabolic session moves. When combined with trend following indicators, these signal days can be very powerful.
2️⃣ Inside Day
A day where the entire range is contained within the prior day’s range.
Signals consolidation and energy build-up.
Often leads to explosive breakouts in the next session.
Bias: Trade breakouts of the inside day’s high/low or breakout reversal in the session at key timings in the direction of higher timeframe bias. When combined with trend following indicators, these signal days can be very powerful.
3️⃣ Outside Day (Engulfing Day)
`
A day where the range is larger than the prior day’s range, engulfing both high and low.
Marks trapped traders and fakeouts on both sides.
Often precedes strong continuations or sharp reversals from outside of the ranges.
Bias: Align trades with the true continuation move. When combined with trend following indicators, these signal days can be very powerful.
📌 How They Work Together
Day Zero → Signals the new cycle after PFH/PFL.
Inside Day → Signals compression → expect breakout setups.
Outside Day → Signals exhaustion/fakeouts → expect reversals or continuations.
Together, they give traders a clear daily roadmap for where liquidity sits and when to expect the highest-probability setups.
✅ Example in Practice
Market rallies for 3 days → PFH forms → Day Zero short bias.
Next day prints an Inside Day → watch for breakout continuation short, and breakout reversals.
Later, an Outside Day traps both longs and shorts → the following session offers a clean intraday reversal or continuation trade in line with the underlying MTF trend/bias.
⚙️ Features of This Indicator
Automatic detection of Day Zero, Inside Days, and Outside Days

👉 Stacey Burke Signal Day LTE gives traders just a few of the most important signal days — Day Zero, Inside Day, and Outside Day — to structure their intraday trades around fake outs, breakouts, and reversals within the daily cycles of the week. (This is work in progress: Next up, FRD/FGD's, 3-day cycle detecting, 3DLs, 3DSs).
Sentinel 5 — OHL daybreak signals [KedArc Quant]Overview
Sentinel 5 plots the first-bar high/low of each trading session and gives clean, rules-based signals in two ways:
1) OHL Setups at the close of the first bar (Open equals/near High for potential short; Open equals/near Low for potential long).
2) Breakout Signals later in the session when price breaks the first-bar High/Low, with optional body/penetration filters.
Basic workflow
1. Wait for the first session bar to finish.
*If O≈H (optionally by proximity) → short setup. •
*If O≈L → long setup. • If neither happens, optionally allow later breakouts.
2. Optional: Act only on breakouts that penetrate a minimum % of that bar’s range/body.
3. Skip the day automatically if the first bar is abnormally large (marubozu-like / extreme ATR / outsized vs yesterday).
Signals & Markers
Markers on the chart:
▲ O=L (exact) / O near L (proximity) – long setup at first-bar close.
▼ O=H (exact) / O near H (proximity) – short setup at first-bar close.
▲ Breakout Long – later bar breaks above first-bar High meeting your penetration rule.
▼ Breakout Short – later bar breaks below first-bar Low meeting your penetration rule.

## Summary
Peak Reversal v3 adds new configurability, clearer visuals, and a faster trader workflow. The release introduces a new Squeeze Detector , expanded Keltner Channels , and streamlined Momentum signals , with no repaints and improved performance. The menus have been reorganized and simplified. Color swatches have been added for better customization. All other colors will be derived from these swatches.
## Highlights
New Squeeze Detector to mark low-volatility periods and prepare for breakouts.
New: Bands are now fully configurable with independent MA length, ATR length, and multipliers.
Five moving average bases for bands: EMA (from v2), SMA, RMA, VMA, HMA.
Simplified color system: three swatches drive candles, on-chart marks, and band fill.
Reorganized menu with focused sections and tooltips for each parameter making the entire trader experience more intuitive.
No repaints and faster performance across calculations.
## Overview
Configuration : Pick from three color swatches and apply them to candles, plotted characters, and band fill for consistent chart context. Use the reorganized menu to reach Keltner settings, momentum signals, and squeeze detection without extra clicks; tooltips clarify each input.
Bands and averages: Choose the band basis from EMA, SMA, RMA, VMA, or HMA to match your strategy. Configure two bands independently by setting MA length, ATR length, and band multipliers for the inner and outer envelopes.
Signals : Select the band responsible for momentum signals. Choose wick or close as the price source for entries and exits. Control the window for extreme momentum with “Max Momentum Bars,” a setting now exposed in v3 for direct tuning.
Squeeze detection : The Squeeze Detector normalizes band width and uses percentile ranking to highlight volatility compression. When the market falls below a user-defined threshold, the indicator colors the region with a gradient to signal potential expansion.

SmartPlusSmartPlus
Overview
The SmartPlus indicator is a complete framework for intraday traders. It combines key market reference points (VWAP, moving averages, and the first 15-minute high/low range) with predictive levels based on historical daily moves. Together, these elements allow traders to build directional bias, spot breakouts, and manage risk throughout the session.
Key Features
1. VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price)
- Plots the intraday VWAP in real time.
- VWAP acts as a central “fair value” reference point for institutional order flow.
- Price trading above VWAP generally suggests bullish bias, while below VWAP leans bearish.
2. Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)
- Two configurable EMAs are included:
- Fast EMA (default: 21 periods)
- Slow EMA (default: 34 periods)
- Each EMA is plotted with a single, user-selectable color for clarity.
- Crossovers or alignment between price, VWAP, and EMAs help define market structure.
3. Smart Bar Coloring
- Candles automatically change color when conditions align:
- Bull Zone: Price above VWAP, Fast EMA, and Slow EMA.
- Bear Zone: Price below VWAP, Fast EMA, and Slow EMA.
- Fluorescent bar coloring helps highlight momentum zones visually without additional analysis.
4. First 15-Minute High/Low/Mid (Automatic)
- Automatically detects the first 15 minutes of each new trading day (no manual input required).
- Plots horizontal lines for:
- First 15-Minute High (green)
- First 15-Minute Low (red)
- Midpoint of that range (gray)
- Once the initial 15-minute window ends, these levels remain projected throughout the session as breakout or support/resistance zones.
- Alerts trigger when price breaks above the high or below the low after the window.
5. Daily Support/Resistance Forecast
- Uses a rolling lookback of recent daily ranges (default: 126 days).
- Tracks average up moves and down moves from the daily open.
- Optionally incorporates standard deviation for wider confidence bands.
- Plots forecast levels above/below the current day’s open for reference.
Trading Logic (How to Use)
- Bullish Bias:
- Price is above VWAP, above both EMAs, and ideally above the first 15-minute high.
- This setup suggests trend continuation or breakout opportunities on the long side.
- Bearish Bias:
- Price is below VWAP, below both EMAs, and ideally below the first 15-minute low.
- This setup suggests downward pressure or breakout opportunities on the short side.
- Neutral / Caution Zone:
- Price caught between VWAP, EMAs, or inside the 15-minute range often signals indecision.
- Best to wait for confirmation or breakout before committing to trades.
Expectations After Using It
- The script provides context and structure, not trading signals.
- It highlights where price is relative to meaningful market levels so traders can act with greater confidence.
- Combining VWAP, EMAs, and the 15-minute breakout framework helps traders stay aligned with the market’s natural rhythm.

SONIC R BREAK FINAL (VER5)
Purpose: Capture breakouts through Support/Resistance (S/R) zones based on Pivot and filter signals using EMA 34 (High/Low/Close), EMA 89, volume, and candle structure. Includes a Higher Timeframe (H4) RSI risk warning (visual only, does not block entries).
How it works
S/R zones from Pivot
Draws Resistance and Support using ta.pivothigh/ta.pivotlow with Left/Right Bars.
S/R lines are locked with offset to reduce repaint.
EMA trend filters
EMA34 High/Low/Close build a “EMA 34 band”.
EMA89 works as the main trend filter.
Trend conditions:
Long: close above all EMA34 High/Low/Close and EMA89.
Short: close below all EMA34 High/Low/Close and EMA89.
Volume filter (optional)
Signal valid only if Volume > SMA(Volume, n).
Wick filter
Each wick (upper/lower) ≤ 50% of candle range to avoid weak breakouts.
Higher TF RSI risk (H4)
Fetches RSI from a higher timeframe (default H4).
If RSI exceeds threshold, breakout labels turn gray (risk warning only).
Anti-repeat mechanism
Each new pivot resets trigger.
Each S/R level triggers only once until the next pivot is formed.
Signals & Alerts
Label “B” (green) below candle: breakout above Resistance, valid EMA/Volume/Wick conditions.
Label “S” (red) above candle: breakout below Support, valid EMA/Volume/Wick conditions.
Gray labels = H4 RSI risk warning.
Unified alert: “S/R Breakout (Unified)” with message B=Buy, S=Sell, Gray=Risk.
Parameters
Show Breaks: toggle breakout detection.
Left/Right Bars: pivot sensitivity.
Require Volume > Average + Volume MA Length: volume filter.
Use H4 RSI Risk Warning: enable higher TF RSI check.
RSI Length, Higher TF (minutes), RSI thresholds for Buy/Sell risk.
Usage tips
Prioritize trades in the same direction as EMA89 and EMA34 trend.
Works on M5 to H4; best combined with RSI H4 when trading M15/M30.
Place SL behind the S/R just broken, TP by fixed RR or EMA trailing.
Increase Left/Right Bars for stronger zones and less noise in sideways markets.
Notes
Pivot still has repaint element (mitigated by offset).
This indicator is not financial advice. Always combine with proper risk management.
Version
Clean v4: added wick ≤50% filter, H4 RSI risk coloring, volume filter, anti-repeat pivot trigger, unified alert, EMA34 H/L/C background shading.
High Volume Buyers/Sellers+High Volume Buyers/Sellers+
This indicator helps traders spot bars where unusually high or extreme volume occurs, indicating strong buying or selling pressure.
How it works:
Calculates a volume moving average (SMA) over a user-defined period.
Marks bars where the current volume exceeds:
High Volume Multiplier → small green circle (bullish) or red circle (bearish).
Extreme Volume Multiplier → small green up-triangle (bullish) or red down-triangle (bearish).
Settings:
Volume MA Period → Number of bars used to calculate the average volume.
High Volume Multiplier → Threshold to define high volume.
Extreme Volume Multiplier → Threshold to define extreme volume.
Show Extreme Volume Signals → Option to enable or disable extreme volume markers.
Usage tips:
Apply this indicator on a clean chart to visually highlight momentum bursts or exhaustion points.
It works well for both intraday and swing trading strategies where volume confirmation matters.
⚠ Note: This script only displays on-chart markers and does not plot any lines or indicators.
Adaptive Squeeze Momentum +Adaptive Squeeze Momentum+ (Auto-Timeframe Version)
Overview
Adaptive Squeeze Momentum+ is an enhanced volatility and momentum indicator designed to identify compression and expansion phases in price action. It is inspired by the classic Squeeze Momentum Indicator by LazyBear but introduces automatic parameter adaptation to any timeframe, making it simpler to use across different markets without manual configuration.
Concepts and Methodology
The script combines Bollinger Bands (BB) and Keltner Channels (KC) to detect periods when volatility contracts (squeeze) or expands (release).
A squeeze occurs when BB are inside KC, suggesting low volatility and potential breakout scenarios.
A squeeze release is detected when BB expand outside KC.
Momentum is derived using a linear regression applied to the difference between price and a midrange reference level.
Original Improvements
Compared to the original Squeeze Momentum Indicator, this version offers several enhancements:
Automatic Adaptation: BB and KC lengths and multipliers are dynamically adjusted based on the chart’s timeframe (from 1 minute up to 1 month), removing the need for manual tuning.
Simplified Visualization: A clean, minimalist histogram and clear squeeze state cross markers allow for faster interpretation.
Flexible Application: Designed to work consistently on intraday, daily, and higher timeframes across crypto, forex, stocks, and indices.
Features
Dynamic Squeeze Detection:
Gray Cross: Neutral (no squeeze detected)
Blue Cross: Active squeeze
Yellow Cross: Squeeze released
Momentum Histogram:
Positive/negative momentum shown with slope-based coloring.
Timeframe-Aware Parameters:
Automatically sets optimal BB/KC configurations.
Usage
Watch for blue crosses indicating an active squeeze phase that may precede a directional move.
Use the histogram color and slope to gauge momentum strength and direction.
Combine squeeze release signals with momentum confirmation for potential entries or exits.
Credits and Licensing

Live Breakout Zones (No Repaint)The Live Breakout Zones indicator is a non-repainting, real-time breakout detection tool designed to help traders identify critical price breakouts as they happen — without lag and without repainting past signals.
This indicator scans recent price action to determine the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined lookback period. When price closes above the recent high or below the recent low, it immediately plots a breakout zone on the chart and provides a visual confirmation through labels and optional alerts.
🔍 Key Features:
✅ No Repainting – Signals are locked in as soon as a breakout happens; no future bar confirmation is needed.
⏱️ Minimal Lag – Reacts on breakout of recent range highs/lows without waiting for pivots or candle confirmation.
📦 Breakout Zones – Automatically draws colored rectangles showing the breakout level and zone width for clearer analysis.
🔔 Real-Time Alerts – Alerts for both bullish and bearish breakouts help you stay informed without watching the screen.
⚙️ Customizable – Adjustable lookback length, zone width, and color settings to match your strategy or chart style.
📈 Use Cases:
Identify key breakout moments for entry or retest zones.
Confirm breakout-based strategies in trending or consolidating markets.
Use zones for setting risk-reward areas, SL/TP levels, or re-entry planning.
⚙️ Settings:
Lookback Range (High/Low): Defines how many previous bars are checked for breakout levels.
Zone Width: Number of bars to extend the breakout box forward.
Bullish/Bearish Zone Color: Choose custom colors for breakout visualization.
🧠 Trading Tip:
Combine this tool with volume spikes, tail candles, or support/resistance for more reliable breakout setups.
Disparity Index with Volatility ZonesDisparity Index with Volatility Zones
is a momentum oscillator that measures the percentage difference between the current price and its simple moving average (SMA). This allows traders to identify overbought/oversold conditions, assess momentum strength, and detect potential trend reversals or continuations.
🔍 Core Concept:
The Disparity Index (DI) is calculated as:
DI = 100 × (Price − SMA) / SMA
A positive DI indicates the price is trading above its moving average (potential bullish sentiment), while a negative DI suggests the price is below the average (potential bearish sentiment).
This version of the Disparity Index introduces a dual-zone volatility framework, offering deeper insight into the market's current state.
🧠 What Makes This Version Unique?
1. High Volatility Zones
When DI crosses above +1.0% or below –1.0%, it often indicates the start or continuation of a strong trend.
Sustained readings beyond these thresholds typically align with trending phases, offering opportunities for momentum-based entries.
A reversal back within ±1.0% after exceeding these levels can suggest a shift in momentum — similar to how RSI exits the overbought/oversold zones before reversals.
These thresholds act as dynamic markers for breakout confirmation and potential trend exhaustion.
2. Low Volatility Zones
DI values between –0.5% and +0.5% define the low-volatility zone, shaded for visual clarity.
This area typically indicates market indecision, sideways price action, or consolidation.
Trading within this range may favor range-bound or mean-reversion strategies, as trend momentum is likely limited.
The logic is similar to interpreting a flat ADX, tight Bollinger Bands, or contracting Keltner Channels — all suggesting consolidation.
⚙️ Features:
Customizable moving average length and input source
Adjustable thresholds for overbought/oversold and low-volatility zones
Optional visual fill between low-volatility bounds
Clean and minimal chart footprint (non-essential plots hidden by default)
📈 How to Use:
1. Trend Confirmation:
A break above +1.0% can be used as a bullish continuation signal.
A break below –1.0% may confirm bearish strength.
Long periods above/below these thresholds support trend-following entries.
2. Reversal Detection:
If DI returns below +1.0% after exceeding it, bullish momentum may be fading.
If DI rises above –1.0% after falling below, bearish pressure may be weakening.
These shifts resemble overbought/oversold transitions in oscillators like RSI or Stochastic, and can be paired with divergence, volume, or price structure analysis for higher reliability.
3. Sideways Market Detection:
DI values within ±0.5% indicate low volatility or a non-trending environment.
Traders may avoid breakout entries during these periods or apply range-trading tactics instead.
Observing transitions out of the low-volatility zone can help anticipate breakouts.
4. Combine with Other Indicators:
DI signals can be enhanced using tools like MACD, Volume Oscillators, or Moving Averages.
For example, a DI breakout beyond ±1.0% supported by a MACD crossover or volume spike can help validate trend initiation.
This indicator is especially powerful when paired with Bollinger Bands:
A simultaneous price breakout from the Bollinger Band and DI moving beyond ±1.0% can help identify early trend inflection points.
This combination supports entering positions early in a developing trend, improving the efficiency of trend-following strategies and enhancing decision-making precision.
It also helps filter false breakouts when DI fails to confirm the move outside the band.
This indicator is designed for educational and analytical purposes and works across all timeframes and asset classes.
It is particularly useful for traders seeking a clear framework to identify momentum strength, filter sideways markets, and improve entry timing within a larger trading system.

TrendPredator FOTrendPredator Fakeout Highlighter (FO)
The TrendPredator Fakeout Highlighter is designed to enhance multi-timeframe trend analysis by identifying key market behaviors that indicate trend strength, weakness, and potential reversals. Inspired by Stacey Burke’s trading approach, this tool focuses on trend-following, momentum shifts, and trader traps, helping traders capitalize on high-probability setups.
At its core, this indicator highlights peak formations—anchor points where price often locks in trapped traders before making decisive moves. These principles align with George Douglas Taylor’s 3-day cycle and Steve Mauro’s BTMM method, making the FO Highlighter a powerful tool for reading market structure. As markets are fractal, this analysis works on any timeframe.
How It Works
The TrendPredator FO highlights key price action signals by coloring candles based on their bias state on the current timeframe.
It tracks four major elements:
Breakout/Breakdown Bars – Did the candle close in a breakout or breakdown relative to the last candle?
Fakeout Bars (Trend Close) – Did the candle break a prior high/low and close back inside, but still in line with the trend?
Fakeout Bars (Counter-Trend Close) – Did the candle break a prior high/low, close back inside, and against the trend?
Switch Bars – Did the candle lose/ reclaim the breakout/down level of the last bar that closed in breakout/down, signalling a possible trend shift?
Reading the Trend with TrendPredator FO
The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration.
- Breakouts → Strong Trend
Multiple candles closing in breakout signal a healthy and strong trend.
- Fakeouts (Trend Close) → First Signs of Weakness
Candles that break out but close back inside suggest a potential slowdown—especially near key levels.
- Fakeouts (Counter-Trend Close) → Stronger Reversal Signal
Closing against the trend strengthens the reversal signal.
- Switch Bars → Momentum Shift
A shift in trend is confirmed when price crosses back through the last closed breakout candles breakout level, trapping traders and fuelling a move in the opposite direction.
- Breakdowns → Trend Reversal Confirmed
Once price breaks away from the peak formation, closing in breakdown, the trend shift is validated.
Customization & Settings
- Toggle individual candle types on/off
- Customize colors for each signal
- Set the number of historical candles displayed
Example Use Cases
1. Weekly Template Analysis
The weekly template is a core concept in Stacey Burke’s trading style. FO highlights individual candle states. With this the state of the trend and the developing weekly template can be evaluated precisely. The analysis is done on the daily timeframe and we are looking especially for overextended situations within a week, after multiple breakouts and for peak formations signalling potential reversals. This is helpful for thesis generation before a session and also for backtesting. The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration.
📈 Example: Weekly Template Analysis snapshot on daily timeframe
2. High Timeframe 5-Star Setup Analysis (Stacey Burke "ain't coming back" ACB Template)
This analysis identifies high-probability trade opportunities when daily breakout or down closes occur near key monthly levels mid-week, signalling overextensions and potentially large parabolic moves. Key signals for this are breakout or down closes occurring on a Wednesday. This is helpful for thesis generation before a session and also for backtesting. The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration. Also an indicator can bee seen on this chart shading every Wednesday to identify the signal.
📉 Example: High Timeframe Setup snapshot

Breakouts With Timefilter Strategy [LuciTech]This strategy captures breakout opportunities using pivot high/low breakouts while managing risk through dynamic stop-loss placement and position sizing. It includes a time filter to limit trades to specific sessions.
How It Works
A long trade is triggered when price closes above a pivot high, and a short trade when price closes below a pivot low.
Stop-loss can be set using ATR, prior candle high/low, or a fixed point value. Take-profit is based on a risk-reward multiplier.
Position size adjusts based on the percentage of equity risked.
Breakout signals are marked with triangles, and entry, stop-loss, and take-profit levels are plotted.
moving average filter: Bullish breakouts only trigger above the MA, bearish breakouts below.
The time filter shades the background during active trading hours.
Customization:
Adjustable pivot length for breakout sensitivity.
Risk settings: percentage risked, risk-reward ratio, and stop-loss type.
ATR settings: length, smoothing method (RMA, SMA, EMA, WMA).
Moving average filter (SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, HMA) to confirm breakouts.
