2x Marubozu Signal (Wick ≤ 30%)The 2x Marubozu Signal (Wick ≤ 30%) is a powerful, momentum-based price action indicator designed to catch strong bullish or bearish trends early. It scans for two consecutive Marubozu-style candles (where wicks are ≤ 30% of the total candle size) to identify moments of solid conviction from buyers or sellers.
This indicator detects:
Bullish Signal: Two green candles in a row, both with tiny wicks (≤ 30% of total candle size), indicating strong buying pressure and momentum.
Bearish Signal: Two red candles in a row, both with tiny wicks (≤ 30%), signaling dominant selling pressure.
The signal appears on the second candle — confirming the continuation move after initial momentum.
Key Features:
🔍 Wick Ratio Filter: Only triggers if both candles have upper and lower wicks less than or equal to 30% of the full candle range (High - Low).
📈 Visual Signal Arrows:
Green Up Arrow on bullish 2x Marubozu
Red Down Arrow on bearish 2x Marubozu
⚙️ Clean and Lightweight: No lag, perfect for intraday, swing, or trend-based strategies.
🎯 Use Case:
Trend Confirmation: Enter after the second strong Marubozu to ride breakout moves.
Momentum Filter: Combine with your existing strategy to filter only high-conviction price action setups.
Reversal Spotting: Catch reversals at key support/resistance when Marubozus form.
🧠 Pro Tips:
Works best on 15m–1D charts, especially after consolidation.
Combine with support/resistance, volume, or EMA/SMA zones for confirmation.
Avoid overtrading in choppy zones—this is a momentum-only tool.
🚀 Who’s It For?
Price Action Traders
Scalpers & Swing Traders
Trend-followers
Crypto, Forex, Stocks
📌 Author Note:
This indicator was crafted for traders who trust pure candle structure over lagging indicators. If you respect momentum, this is your edge.
Trend Confirmation StrategyComprehensive Trend Confirmation System
Indicator Features (Professional Description):
Comprehensive Trend Confirmation System is a versatile indicator meticulously designed to identify and confirm trend-based trading opportunities with exceptional efficiency. By seamlessly integrating analysis from a suite of leading technical tools, it aims to provide superior accuracy and reliability for informed trading decisions.
Key Features:
Intelligent Trend Identification: A robust trend analysis system that considers:
Adjustable Moving Averages: Utilizes three customizable moving average periods (fast, medium, slow) with user-selectable lengths and types (SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA) to accurately determine the prevailing trend across different timeframes.
In-depth Price Action Analysis: Examines the formation of Higher Highs/Higher Lows (uptrend) and Lower Highs/Lower Lows (downtrend) to validate price direction.
Average Directional Index (ADX) with Adjustable Threshold: Measures the strength of a trend and employs the comparison between +DI and -DI to pinpoint the dominant momentum, featuring a customizable threshold to filter out weak signals.
Multi-Factor Signal Confirmation System: Enhances the reliability of trading signals through verification from four distinct confirmation tools:
Volume Analysis with Average Reference: Assesses whether trading volume supports price movements by comparing it to historical averages.
Relative Strength Index (RSI) with Reference Levels: Measures price momentum and identifies overbought/oversold conditions to confirm trend strength.
Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) Divergence and Crossovers: Detects shifts in momentum and potential trend changes through the relationship between the MACD line and the Signal line.
Stochastic Oscillator with Reference Levels: Measures the current price's position relative to its historical range to evaluate overbought/oversold conditions and potential reversal opportunities.
Intelligent Signal Generation Logic:
Buy Signal: Triggered when a strong uptrend is identified (meeting defined criteria) and confirmed by at least three out of the four confirmation tools.
Sell Signal: Triggered when a strong downtrend is identified (meeting defined criteria) and confirmed by at least three out of the four confirmation tools.
User-Friendly Visualizations:
Moving Averages (MA): Displays three MA lines on the chart with user-configurable colors (default: fast-blue, medium-orange, slow-red) for easy visual trend analysis.
Clear Buy and Sell Signal Symbols: Presents distinct green upward-pointing triangles for buy signals and red downward-pointing triangles for sell signals at the corresponding candlestick.
Dynamic Candlestick Color Coding: Candlesticks are dynamically colored green upon a buy signal and red upon a sell signal for quick identification of trading opportunities.
Highly Customizable Parameters: Users have extensive control over the indicator's parameters, including:
Lengths and types of Moving Averages.
Length and Threshold of the ADX.
Length of the RSI.
Parameters for the MACD (Fast Length, Slow Length, Signal Length).
Parameters for the Stochastic Oscillator (%K Length, %D Length, Smoothing).
Ideal For:
Traders seeking a robust tool to accurately identify and confirm market trends.
Individuals aiming to reduce false signals and enhance the precision of their trading decisions.
Traders employing trend-following strategies in markets with clear directional movement.
Important Note:
While Comprehensive Trend Confirmation System is engineered to improve trading accuracy, no indicator can guarantee 100% profitable trades. Users are advised to utilize this indicator in conjunction with relevant fundamental analysis and sound risk management practices for optimal trading outcomes.
3 Consecutive Inside Bars - RSTInside bars are often used to identify potential consolidation periods or breakout setups.
This will provide tight range for 3 consecutive inside bars.
Remember that inside bar patterns are just one tool, and no indicator is perfect. Always use sound risk management.
7-Day Narrow Range (NR7)NR7
NR7 stands for "Narrow Range 7." It identifies a day (or bar) with the narrowest trading range of the past seven days.
Traders often watch for NR7 patterns as they can indicate a period of consolidation before a potential breakout. A narrow range suggests that volatility is low, and a breakout could lead to a significant price move.
NR7 signals are often used in conjunction with other technical indicators and analysis techniques.
Remember that NR7 is just one tool, and no indicator is perfect. Always use sound risk management.
Rocket Engulfing Candles🚀 Rocket Engulfing Candles — Bullish & Bearish Detection
This script highlights powerful engulfing candles that resemble rockets — perfect for identifying potential reversals or momentum shifts.
Bullish Rocket (Green Triangle Up)
Fully engulfs the previous candle (higher high, lower low)
Closes higher (bullish body)
Has a longer lower wick (blast-off tail)
Bearish Rocket (Red Triangle Down)
Fully engulfs the previous candle
Closes lower (bearish body)
Has a longer upper wick (crash tail)
These patterns suggest strong buying/selling pressure with possible trend reversals. Ideal for traders looking to spot high-impact candle formations with a visual edge.
BySq - Market PsychologyThe script I provided is a Market Psychology Index indicator for TradingView, which focuses on three key psychological market phases:
FOMO (Fear of Missing Out)
Panic Selling
Reversal
This indicator uses volume, price changes, and specific time periods to gauge market sentiment. Let me break it down:
1. Input Parameters:
FOMO Period: Defines how many bars (candles) the FOMO index will consider for its calculation.
Panic Period: Defines the period to evaluate Panic Selling.
Reversal Period: Defines the period to evaluate potential price reversals.
You can adjust these periods based on your analysis preferences. The default for each period is 14.
2. FOMO Index:
The FOMO Index aims to capture the "fear of missing out" behavior in the market.
It uses volume and price change:
Volume is compared to the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of volume over the specified period.
Price change is calculated as the percentage change in price compared to the previous bar.
If both volume and price change indicate strong upward movement, the FOMO index spikes.
3. Panic Selling Index:
The Panic Selling Index captures when traders are selling out of fear, often in a rapid or irrational way.
Similar to the FOMO Index, it considers volume and price change:
It uses volume and compares it to the SMA of volume for the panic period.
Price change is negative, meaning it considers only price drops.
When there is high volume coupled with significant price drops, it signals panic selling.
4. Reversal Index:
The Reversal Index aims to detect potential trend reversals in the market.
This index also considers volume and price change:
It focuses on upward price movement and compares volume to its SMA.
If there’s strong upward price movement along with increasing volume, it signals the possibility of a price reversal.
5. Graphical Output:
Histograms are drawn on the chart for each of the three indices:
FOMO is shown in green (indicating the presence of FOMO) and red (when the index is low).
Panic Selling is shown in orange.
Reversal is shown in purple.
The Zero Line (horizontal dotted line) helps identify when any of the indices is positive or negative.
6. Labels:
Labels for each index are shown on the chart at the relevant bar when the index spikes.
FOMO is labeled "FOMO" in green when it spikes.
Panic Selling is labeled "Panic Selling" in orange when it spikes.
Reversal is labeled "Reversal" in purple when it spikes.
Additionally, period labels show above the chart, indicating the specific periods (FOMO, Panic, and Reversal periods) currently being applied. This provides clarity on what time frame each index is analyzing.
7. How to Use:
FOMO: High values may indicate that traders are buying out of fear of missing out on a rally, suggesting a potentially overheated market.
Panic Selling: High values could suggest irrational selling behavior or capitulation, potentially marking the bottom of a downtrend.
Reversal: High values signal the potential for a market reversal, where the price could change direction due to increased volume and upward movement.
8. Visual Appearance:
The indicator’s histograms change colors based on the level of market sentiment detected. The color-coded approach provides an easy-to-read visual representation of different psychological phases in the market.
The horizontal zero line allows easy differentiation between positive and negative values.
Summary:
This script combines the psychology of the market (FOMO, Panic Selling, and Reversal) into a set of indicators that help traders identify potential turning points or emotional states in the market. By focusing on volume and price change, the script attempts to give a clear picture of market sentiment and possible future movements.
SL - 4 EMAs, 2 SMAs & Crossover SignalsThis TradingView Pine Script code is built for day traders, especially those trading crypto on a 1‑hour chart. In simple words, the script does the following:
Calculates Moving Averages:
It computes four exponential moving averages (EMAs) and two simple moving averages (SMAs) based on the closing price (or any price you select). Each moving average uses a different time period that you can adjust.
Plots Them on Your Chart:
The EMAs and SMAs are drawn on your chart in different colors and line thicknesses. This helps you quickly see the short-term and long-term trends.
Generates Buy and Sell Signals:
Buy Signal: When the fastest EMA (for example, a 10-period EMA) crosses above a slightly slower EMA (like a 21-period EMA) and the four EMAs are in a bullish order (meaning the fastest is above the next ones), the script will show a "BUY" label on the chart.
Sell Signal: When the fastest EMA crosses below the second fastest EMA and the four EMAs are lined up in a bearish order (the fastest is below the others), it displays a "SELL" label.
In essence, the code is designed to help you spot potential entry and exit points based on the relationships between multiple moving averages, which work as trend indicators. This makes it easier to decide when to trade on your 1‑hour crypto chart.
Dirty Market IndexThis indicator is designed to out an index displaying the level of dirtiness in market.
This level is defined by:
Sum of shadow lengths of last n candles (n is input and user can change it, it's 100 by default)
divided by
Sum of full candle bodies of last n candles (high - low)
This factor indicates how many percents of the market movement has been placed in shadows of candles, the higher this number, the dirtier market would be.

SR Intensity CandleThis is a very simple script intended to find just what the title says, "Intensity Candles" is what i am calling them. A bullish intensity candle is taking the low of the previous candle and the close is above the previous candle high. Bearish intensity candle is the opposite, a candle that takes the high of the previous candle and the close is below the low of the previous candle.
Alternatively, if a "bullish" intensity candle is the mitigated and price pushes below, you can expect a back test short of the "bullish" intensity candle. They will act as SR zones for the future price action.
The BEST and most ideal spot for the intensity candles to happen is the see a bullish candle at the low of a move and a bearish candle at the highs indicating strong movement for reversal.
3 Candles Gap3 Candle Gap Indicator is made to detect these types of patterns:
1. 3 consecutive bullish or bearish candles
2. the middle candle true body (body excluding shadows) has a part that is not covered by previous and next candle shadows (gap)
This pattern helps traders to detect candles where price has moved in a direction and gap has formed (price is not covered by previous or next candles shadows), this is a signal showing price momentum where one side (bulls/bears) is so powerful at moving the price that the other side (bears/bulls) can't get price back to cover the gap.
This indicator has "repainting" by 1 candle which means, it uses the data from future to work, however this future data does not go further than 1 candle.

DTFX Time based range candle box [Wang Indicators]DTFX Time based range candle box
Overview : This indicator highlights HTF Candles in specified timeframe within boxes and extend them until they are mitigated. Allowing traders to use them as zones from which you could find some turn-around or scalp
How does it works ?
Users can setup up to 8 desired timeframe with the hour/minute of the HTF candle
Be carrefull when you chose the time. You must put something coherent with the timeframe (e.g : you can't put 'minutes' = 45 if your timeframe is '1h')
Everyday, the indicator will draw a box around the specified candle for it timeframe
Once the price close above or bellow this candle in the same timeframe, the Zone become "active"
As long as the price doesn't came back into the zone, the retracements will extends
Once the price came back into the zone (in the current timeframe), it stops the expension
Exemple
Here we have those settings :
timeframe : 1 hour
time : 9am
mitigation : 10%
fibs : visible & dashed
The box highlights the 9am 1H candle (9am to 10am)
We now wait for the price to close in the same timeframe (1h here) above or bellow the price
At 11am we close above - the zone is now "active"'
Now we wait for the price to go back in this zone in the current timeframe (here 5min)
12:40am : we put a low above the 10% of the zone -> we stop the retracements, the zone is considered as "mitigated"
Settings
Hour : The hour of the begiging of the candle
Minute : Combined with hour (default 0)
Timeframe : In whichtimeframe we are looking for the candle
% Mitigation : % of the box in wich the price must go back-in in order to "mitigate" the box and stop the expension of the fibs/box (if settings enabled)
Retracements style : Hidden, dashed, dotted or lines for the fibs
Extend Box : extend the box itself until it get mitigated
Number of unmitigated zones : Max unmitigated zone drawed on the chart PER CONFIG
Timezone : Must be set to reflect your needs. (preferably the chart timezone)
How does it helps users ?
Once a Candle is "active" it can be used as a Zone
Fibonnacis levels (30, 50 and 70%) are displayed (if enabled)
Users can customize their apparence and the boxes as they see fit
The 30 - 50 - 70 levels are possible support/resistance that the price tend to bounce of off
You might find some success looking for an entry inside the zone at a level if price gives further confirmations such as a lower time frame flip.
Quarterly Cycle Theory with DST time AdjustedThe Quarterly Theory removes ambiguity, as it gives specific time-based reference points to look for when entering trades. Before being able to apply this theory to trading, one must first understand that time is fractal:
Yearly Quarters = 4 quarters of three months each.
Monthly Quarters = 4 quarters of one week each.
Weekly Quarters = 4 quarters of one day each (Monday - Thursday). Friday has its own specific function.
Daily Quarters = 4 quarters of 6 hours each = 4 trading sessions of a trading day.
Sessions Quarters = 4 quarters of 90 minutes each.
90 Minute Quarters = 4 quarters of 22.5 minutes each.
Yearly Cycle: Analogously to financial quarters, the year is divided in four sections of three months each:
Q1 - January, February, March.
Q2 - April, May, June (True Open, April Open).
Q3 - July, August, September.
Q4 - October, November, December.
S&P 500 E-mini Futures (daily candles) — Monthly Cycle.
Monthly Cycle: Considering that we have four weeks in a month, we start the cycle on the first month’s Monday (regardless of the calendar Day):
Q1 - Week 1: first Monday of the month.
Q2 - Week 2: second Monday of the month (True Open, Daily Candle Open Price).
Q3 - Week 3: third Monday of the month.
Q4 - Week 4: fourth Monday of the month.
S&P 500 E-mini Futures (4 hour candles) — Weekly Cycle.
Weekly Cycle: Daye determined that although the trading week is composed by 5 trading days, we should ignore Friday, and the small portion of Sunday’s price action:
Q1 - Monday.
Q2 - Tuesday (True Open, Daily Candle Open Price).
Q3 - Wednesday.
Q4 - Thursday.
S&P 500 E-mini Futures (1 hour candles) — Daily Cycle.
Daily Cycle: The Day can be broken down into 6 hour quarters. These times roughly define the sessions of the trading day, reinforcing the theory’s validity:
Q1 - 18:00 - 00:00 Asia.
Q2 - 00:00 - 06:00 London (True Open).
Q3 - 06:00 - 12:00 NY AM.

This is helpful for traders who want to quickly assess the magnitude of price movement within each candle and analyze market sentiment based on the size of the body.
TCloud Future📘 Tcloud Future – Indicator Description & How to Use
Tcloud Future is a trend-based indicator that creates a forward-projected cloud between:
A customizable Exponential Moving Average (EMA)
A dynamic McGinley Moving Average
The cloud is shifted into the future (like the Ichimoku Cloud), giving traders a visual projection of potential trend direction.
🔧 Components:
EMA (default: 19-period) – fast-reacting average to short-term price action
McGinley Dynamic (default: 26-period) – smoother, adaptive average that reacts to volatility
Forward Projection (default: 26 candles) – pushes the cloud into the future to help anticipate trend continuation or reversal
Cloud Color
Green when EMA is above McGinley (bullish bias)
Red when EMA is below McGinley (bearish bias)
🟢 How to Trade with Tcloud Future
✅ Trend Confirmation
Use the cloud color and slope to confirm the current trend.
Green cloud sloping up → bullish momentum
Red cloud sloping down → bearish momentum
🟩 Entry Strategy (Trend-Following)
Go long when price is above the green cloud and the cloud is rising.
Go short when price is below the red cloud and the cloud is falling.
🔁 Cloud Crossovers (Trend Shift)
A color change in the projected cloud can signal a potential trend reversal.
Use this as a heads-up to prepare for position changes or tighten stops.
🛡️ Support/Resistance Zones
The cloud often acts as a dynamic support/resistance zone.
During an uptrend, pullbacks to the top or middle of the green cloud can be good entries.
During a downtrend, rallies into the red cloud can offer shorting opportunities.
🧠 Tips
Combine with RSI, MACD, or Volume for confirmation.
Avoid using it alone in sideways markets — it performs best in trending conditions.
Adjust projection and smoothing settings to fit the asset/timeframe you're trading.
SMC+The "SMC+" indicator is a comprehensive tool designed to overlay key Smart Money Concepts (SMC) levels, support/resistance zones, order blocks (OB), fair value gaps (FVG), and trap detection on your TradingView chart. It aims to assist traders in identifying potential areas of interest based on price action, swing structures, and volume dynamics across multiple timeframes. This indicator is fully customizable, allowing users to adjust lookback periods, colors, opacity, and sensitivity to suit their trading style.

Extra-Long Lookback Period (Default: 100 bars)
Identifies significant historical highs (extra_long_high) and lows (extra_long_low) with dashed lines.
Configurable with Extra-Long Resistance Color, Extra-Long Support Color, and opacity settings.
Adjustment Tip: Use 200-500 bars for monthly charts to capture macro-level key zones.
Daily Nearest Resistance and Support Levels
Dynamically calculates the nearest resistance (daily_res_level) and support (daily_sup_level) based on the current day’s price action relative to historical highs and lows.
Displayed with Daily Resistance Color and Daily Support Color (with opacity options).
Adjustment Tip: Works best on intraday charts (e.g., 15m, 1h) to track daily pivots; combine with volume profile for confirmation.
How It Works: These levels update dynamically as new highs/lows form, providing a visual guide to potential reversal or breakout zones.
2. SMC Inputs (Smart Money Concepts)
This section identifies swing structures, order blocks, fair value gaps, and entry signals based on SMC principles.
SMC Swing Lookback Period (Default: 12 bars)
Defines the period for detecting swing highs (smc_swing_high) and lows (smc_swing_low).
Adjustment Tip: Increase to 20-30 for smoother swings on higher timeframes; reduce to 5-10 for faster signals on lower timeframes.
Minimum Swing Size (%) (Default: 0.5%)
Filters out minor price movements to focus on significant swings.
Adjustment Tip: Raise to 1-2% for volatile markets (e.g., crypto) to avoid noise; lower to 0.2-0.3% for forex pairs with tight ranges.
Order Block Sensitivity (Default: 1.0)
Scales the size of detected order blocks (OBs) for bullish reversal (smc_ob_bull), bearish reversal (smc_ob_bear), and continuation (smc_cont_ob).
Visuals include customizable colors, opacity, border thickness, and blinking effects (e.g., SMC Bullish Reversal OB Color, SMC Bearish Reversal OB Blink Thickness).
Adjustment Tip: Increase to 1.5-2.0 for wider OBs in choppy markets; keep at 1.0 for precision in trending conditions.
Minimum FVG Size (%) (Default: 0.3%)
Sets the minimum gap size for Fair Value Gaps (fvg_high, fvg_low), displayed as boxes with Fair Value Gap Color and FVG Opacity.
Adjustment Tip: Increase to 0.5-1% for larger, more reliable gaps; decrease to 0.1-0.2% for scalping smaller inefficiencies.
How It Works:
Bullish Reversal OB: Detects a bearish candle followed by a bullish break, marking a potential demand zone.
Bearish Reversal OB: Identifies a bullish candle followed by a bearish break, marking a supply zone.
Continuation OB: Spots strong bullish momentum after a prior high, indicating a continuation zone.
FVG: Highlights bullish gaps where price may retrace to fill.
Entry Signals: Plots triangles (SMC Long Entry) when price retests an OB with a liquidity sweep or break of structure (BOS).
3. Trap Inputs
This section detects potential bull and bear traps based on price action, volume, and key level rejections.
Min Down Move for Bear Trap (%) (Default: 1.0%)
Sets the minimum drop required after a bearish OB to qualify as a trap.
Visualized with Bear Trap Color, Bear Trap Opacity, and blinking borders.
Adjustment Tip: Increase to 2-3% for stronger traps in trending markets; lower to 0.5% for ranging conditions.

How It Works:
Bear Trap: Triggers when price drops significantly after a bearish OB but reverses up with low volume or support rejection.
Bull Trap: Activates when price rises after a bullish OB but fails with low volume or resistance rejection.
Boxes highlight trap zones, resetting when price breaks out.
4. Visual Customization
Line Width (Default: 2)
Adjusts thickness of support/resistance lines.
Tip: Increase to 3-4 for visibility on cluttered charts.
Blink On (Default: Close)
Sets whether OB/FVG borders blink based on Open or Close price interaction.
Tip: Use "Open" for intraday precision; "Close" for confirmed reactions.
Colors and Opacity: Each element (OBs, FVGs, traps, key levels) has customizable colors, opacity (0-100), border thickness (1-5 or 1-7), and blink effects for dynamic visualization.
How to Use SMC+
Setup: Apply the indicator to any chart and adjust inputs based on your timeframe and market.
Key Levels: Watch for price reactions at short, long, extra-long, or daily levels for potential reversals or breakouts.
SMC Signals: Look for entry signals (triangles) near OBs or FVGs, confirmed by liquidity sweeps or BOS.
Traps: Avoid false breakouts by monitoring trap boxes, especially near key levels with low volume.
Notes:

Performance may vary across markets and timeframes; test settings thoroughly before use.
For optimal results, experiment with lookback periods and sensitivity settings to match your trading style.
The default settings are optimal for 1 minute and 10 second time frames for small cap low float stocks.
Continuation OB are Blue.
Bullish Reversal OB color is Green
Bearish Reversal OB color is Red
FVG color is purple
Bear Trap OB is red with a green border and often appears with a Bearish Reversal OB signaling caution to a short position.
Bull trap OB is green with a Red border signaling caution to a long position.
All active OB area are highlighted and solid in color while other non active OB area are dimmed.
My personal favorite setups are when we have an active bullish reversal with an active FVG along with an active Continuation OB.
Another personal favorite is the Bearish reversal OB signaling an end to a recent uptrend.
The Trap OB detection are also a unique and Original helpful source of information.
The OB have a white boarder by default that are colored black giving a simulated blinking effect when price is acting in that zone.
The Trap OB border are colored with respect to direction of intended trap, all of which can be customized to personal style.
All vaild OB zones are shown compact in size ,a unique and original view until its no longer valid.
Aggressive Predictor+ (Last Bar, Vol, Wick)# Aggressive Predictor+ Pine Script Indicator
**Version:** Based on the script incorporating Last Bar analysis, Volume Confirmation, and Wick Rejection.
## Overview
This TradingView Pine Script indicator aims to predict the likely directional bias of the **next** candle based on an aggressive analysis of the **last closed candle's** price action, volume, and wick characteristics relative to recent market volatility (ATR).
It is designed to be **highly reactive** to the most recent bar's information. The prediction is visualized directly on the chart through shapes, a projected line, a text label, and an information table.
**Please Note:** Predicting the next candle is inherently speculative. This indicator provides a probability assessment based on its specific logic and should be used as a supplementary tool within a broader trading strategy, not as a standalone signal. Its performance heavily depends on market conditions and the chosen settings.
## Core Logic Explained
The indicator follows these steps for each new bar, looking back at the **last closed bar** (` `):
1. **Calculate Recent Volatility:** Determines the Average True Range (ATR) over the specified `ATR Lookback Period` (`atr_len`). This provides context for how volatile the market has been recently.
2. **Analyze Last Bar's Body:** Calculates the price change from open to close (`close - open `) of the last completed bar.
3. **Compare Body to Volatility:** Compares the absolute size of the last bar's body to the calculated ATR (`prev_atr`) multiplied by a sensitivity threshold (`threshold_atr_mult`).
* If the body size (positive) exceeds the threshold, the initial prediction is "Upward".
* If the body size (negative) exceeds the negative threshold, the initial prediction is "Downward".
* Otherwise, the initial prediction is "Neutral".
4. **Check Volume Confirmation:** Compares the volume of the last bar (`volume `) to its recent average volume (`ta.sma(volume, vol_avg_len) `). If the volume is significantly higher (based on `vol_confirm_mult`), it adds context ("High Vol") to directional predictions.
5. **Check for Wick Rejection:** Analyzes the wicks of the last bar.
* If the initial prediction was "Upward" but there was a large upper wick (relative to the body size, defined by `wick_rejection_mult`), it indicates potential selling pressure rejecting higher prices. The prediction is **overridden to "Neutral"**.
* If the initial prediction was "Downward" but there was a large lower wick, it indicates potential buying pressure supporting lower prices. The prediction is **overridden to "Neutral"**.
6. **Determine Final Prediction:** The final state ("Upward", "Downward", or "Neutral") is determined after considering potential wick rejection overrides. Context about volume or wick rejection is added to the display text.
## Visual Elements
* **Prediction Shapes:**
* Green Up Triangle: Below the bar for an "Upward" prediction (without wick rejection).
* Red Down Triangle: Above the bar for a "Downward" prediction (without wick rejection).
* Gray Diamond: Above/Below the bar if a directional move was predicted but then neutralized due to Wick Rejection.
* **Prediction Line:**
* Extends forward from the current bar's close for `line_length` bars (Default: 20).
* Color indicates the final predicted state (Green: Upward, Red: Downward, Gray: Neutral).
* Style is solid for directional predictions, dotted for Neutral.
* The *slope/magnitude* of the line is based on recent volatility (ATR) and the `projection_mult` setting, representing a *potential* magnitude if the predicted direction holds, scaled by recent volatility. **This is purely a visual projection, not a precise price forecast.**
* **Prediction Label:**
* Appears at the end of the Prediction Line.
* Displays the final prediction state (e.g., "Upward (High Vol)", "Neutral (Wick Rej)").
* Shows the raw price change of the last bar's body and its size relative to ATR (e.g., "Last Body: 1.50 (120.5% ATR)").
* Tooltip provides more detailed calculation info.
* **Info Table:**
* Displays the prediction state, color-coded.
* Shows details about the last bar's body size relative to ATR.
* Dynamically positioned near the latest bar (offsets configurable).
## Configuration Settings (Inputs)
These settings allow you to customize the indicator's behavior and appearance. Access them by clicking the "Settings" gear icon on the indicator name on your chart.
### Price Action & ATR
* **`ATR Lookback Period` (`atr_len`):**
* *Default:* 14
* *Purpose:* Number of bars used to calculate the Average True Range (ATR), which measures recent volatility.
* **`Body Threshold (ATR Multiplier)` (`threshold_atr_mult`):**
* *Default:* 0.5
* *Purpose:* Key setting for **aggression**. The last bar's body size (`close - open`) must be greater than `ATR * this_multiplier` to be initially classified as "Upward" or "Downward".
* *Effect:* **Lower values** make the indicator **more aggressive** (easier to predict direction). Higher values require a stronger price move relative to volatility and result in more "Neutral" predictions.
### Volume Confirmation
* **`Volume Avg Lookback` (`vol_avg_len`):**
* *Default:* 20
* *Purpose:* Number of bars used to calculate the simple moving average of volume.
* **`Volume Confirmation Multiplier` (`vol_confirm_mult`):**
* *Default:* 1.5
* *Purpose:* Volume on the last bar is considered "High" if it's greater than `Average Volume * this_multiplier`.
* *Effect:* Primarily adds context "(High Vol)" or "(Low Vol)" to the display text for directional predictions. Doesn't change the core prediction state itself.
### Wick Rejection
* **`Wick Rejection Multiplier` (`wick_rejection_mult`):**
* *Default:* 1.0
* *Purpose:* If an opposing wick (upper wick on an up-candle, lower wick on a down-candle) is larger than `body size * this_multiplier`, the directional prediction is overridden to "Neutral".
* *Effect:* Higher values require a much larger opposing wick to cause a rejection override. Lower values make wick rejection more likely.
### Projection Settings
* **`Projection Multiplier (ATR based)` (`projection_mult`):**
* *Default:* 1.0
* *Purpose:* Scales the projected *magnitude* of the prediction line. The projected price change shown by the line is `+/- ATR * this_multiplier`.
* *Effect:* Adjusts how far up or down the prediction line visually slopes. Does not affect the predicted direction.
* **`Prediction Line Length (Bars)` (`line_length`):**
* *Default:* 20
* *Purpose:* Controls how many bars forward the **visual** prediction line extends.
* *Effect:* Purely visual length adjustment.
### Visuals
* **`Upward Color` (`bullish_color`):** Color for Upward predictions.
* **`Downward Color` (`bearish_color`):** Color for Downward predictions.
* **`Neutral Color` (`neutral_color`):** Color for Neutral predictions (including Wick Rejections).
* **`Show Prediction Shapes` (`show_shapes`):** Toggle visibility of the triangles/diamonds on the chart.
* **`Show Prediction Line` (`show_line`):** Toggle visibility of the projected line.
* **`Show Prediction Label` (`show_label`):** Toggle visibility of the text label at the end of the line.
* **`Show Info Table` (`show_table`):** Toggle visibility of the information table.
### Table Positioning
* **`Table X Offset (Bars)` (`table_x_offset`):**
* *Default:* 3
* *Purpose:* How many bars to the right of the current bar the info table should appear.
* **`Table Y Offset (ATR Multiplier)` (`table_y_offset_atr`):**
* *Default:* 0.5
* *Purpose:* How far above the high of the last bar the info table should appear, measured in multiples of ATR.

Stochastic Order Flow Momentum [ScorsoneEnterprises]This indicator implements a stochastic model of order flow using the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) process, combined with a Kalman filter to smooth momentum signals. It is designed to capture the dynamic momentum of volume delta, representing the net buying or selling pressure per bar, and highlight potential shifts in market direction. The volume delta data is sourced from TradingView’s built-in functionality:
www.tradingview.com
For a deeper dive into stochastic processes like the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck model in financial contexts, see these research articles: arxiv.org and arxiv.org
The SOFM tool aims to reveal the momentum and acceleration of order flow, modeled as a mean-reverting stochastic process. In markets, order flow often oscillates around a baseline, with bursts of buying or selling pressure that eventually fade—similar to how physical systems return to equilibrium. The OU process captures this behavior, while the Kalman filter refines the signal by filtering noise. Parameters theta (mean reversion rate), mu (mean level), and sigma (volatility) are estimated by minimizing a squared-error objective function using gradient descent, ensuring adaptability to real-time market conditions.
How It Works
The script combines a stochastic model with signal processing. Here’s a breakdown of the key components, including the OU equation and supporting functions.
// Ornstein-Uhlenbeck model for volume delta
ou_model(params, v_t, lkb) =>
theta = clamp(array.get(params, 0), 0.01, 1.0)
mu = clamp(array.get(params, 1), -100.0, 100.0)
sigma = clamp(array.get(params, 2), 0.01, 100.0)
error = 0.0
v_pred = array.new(lkb, 0.0)
array.set(v_pred, 0, array.get(v_t, 0))
for i = 1 to lkb - 1
v_prev = array.get(v_pred, i - 1)
v_curr = array.get(v_t, i)
// Discretized OU: v_t = v_{t-1} + theta * (mu - v_{t-1}) + sigma * noise
v_next = v_prev + theta * (mu - v_prev)
array.set(v_pred, i, v_next)
v_curr_clean = na(v_curr) ? 0 : v_curr
v_pred_clean = na(v_next) ? 0 : v_next
error := error + math.pow(v_curr_clean - v_pred_clean, 2)
error
The ou_model function implements a discretized Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process:
v_t = v_{t-1} + theta (mu - v_{t-1})
The model predicts volume delta (v_t) based on its previous value, adjusted by the mean-reverting term theta (mu - v_{t-1}), with sigma representing the volatility of random shocks (approximated in the Kalman filter).
Parameters Explained
The parameters theta, mu, and sigma represent distinct aspects of order flow dynamics:
Theta:
Definition: The mean reversion rate, controlling how quickly volume delta returns to its mean (mu). Constrained between 0.01 and 1.0 (e.g., clamp(array.get(params, 0), 0.01, 1.0)).
Interpretation: A higher theta indicates faster reversion (short-lived momentum), while a lower theta suggests persistent trends. Initial value is 0.1 in init_params.
In the Code: In ou_model, theta scales the pull toward \mu, influencing the predicted v_t.
Mu:
Definition: The long-term mean of volume delta, representing the equilibrium level of net buying/selling pressure. Constrained between -100.0 and 100.0 (e.g., clamp(array.get(params, 1), -100.0, 100.0)).
Interpretation: A positive mu suggests a bullish bias, while a negative mu indicates bearish pressure. Initial value is 0.0 in init_params.
In the Code: In ou_model, mu is the target level that v_t reverts to over time.
Sigma:
Definition: The volatility of volume delta, capturing the magnitude of random fluctuations. Constrained between 0.01 and 100.0 (e.g., clamp(array.get(params, 2), 0.01, 100.0)).
Interpretation: A higher sigma reflects choppier, noisier order flow, while a lower sigma indicates smoother behavior. Initial value is 0.1 in init_params.
In the Code: In the Kalman filter, sigma contributes to the error term, adjusting the smoothing process.
Summary:
theta: Speed of mean reversion (how fast momentum fades).
mu: Baseline order flow level (bullish or bearish bias).
sigma: Noise level (variability in order flow).
Other Parts of the Script
Clamp
A utility function to constrain parameters, preventing extreme values that could destabilize the model.
ObjectiveFunc
Defines the objective function (sum of squared errors) to minimize during parameter optimization. It compares the OU model’s predicted volume delta to observed data, returning a float to be minimized.
How It Works: Calls ou_model to generate predictions, computes the squared error for each timestep, and sums it. Used in optimization to assess parameter fit.
FiniteDifferenceGradient
Calculates the gradient of the objective function using finite differences. Think of it as finding the "slope" of the error surface for each parameter. It nudges each parameter (theta, mu, sigma) by a small amount (epsilon) and measures the change in error, returning an array of gradients.
Minimize
Performs gradient descent to optimize parameters. It iteratively adjusts theta, mu, and sigma by stepping down the "hill" of the error surface, using the gradients from FiniteDifferenceGradient. Stops when the gradient norm falls below a tolerance (0.001) or after 20 iterations.
Kalman Filter
Smooths the OU-modeled volume delta to extract momentum. It uses the optimized theta, mu, and sigma to predict the next state, then corrects it with observed data via the Kalman gain. The result is a cleaner momentum signal.
Applied
After initializing parameters (theta = 0.1, mu = 0.0, sigma = 0.1), the script optimizes them using volume delta data over the lookback period. The optimized parameters feed into the Kalman filter, producing a smoothed momentum array. The average momentum and its rate of change (acceleration) are calculated, though only momentum is plotted by default.
A rising momentum suggests increasing buying or selling pressure, while a flattening or reversing momentum indicates fading activity. Acceleration (not plotted here) could highlight rapid shifts.
Tool Examples
The SOFM indicator provides a dynamic view of order flow momentum, useful for spotting directional shifts or consolidation.
Low Time Frame Example: On a 5-minute chart of SEED_ALEXDRAYM_SHORTINTEREST2:NQ , a rising momentum above zero with a lookback of 5 might signal building buying pressure, while a drop below zero suggests selling dominance. Crossings of the zero line can mark transitions, though the focus is on trend strength rather than frequent crossovers.
High Time Frame Example: On a daily chart of NYSE:VST , a sustained positive momentum could confirm a bullish trend, while a sharp decline might warn of exhaustion. The mean-reverting nature of the OU process helps filter out noise on longer scales. It doesn’t make the most sense to use this on a high timeframe with what our data is.
Choppy Markets: When momentum oscillates near zero, it signals indecision or low conviction, helping traders avoid whipsaws. Larger deviations from zero suggest stronger directional moves to act on, this is on $STT.
Inputs
Lookback: Users can set the lookback period (default 5) to adjust the sensitivity of the OU model and Kalman filter. Shorter lookbacks react faster but may be noisier; longer lookbacks smooth more but lag slightly.
The user can also specify the timeframe they want the volume delta from. There is a default way to lower and expand the time frame based on the one we are looking at, but users have the flexibility.
No indicator is 100% accurate, and SOFM is no exception. It’s an estimation tool, blending stochastic modeling with signal processing to provide a leading view of order flow momentum. Use it alongside price action, support/resistance, and your own discretion for best results. I encourage comments and constructive criticism.
