CFR - Candle Formation RatioDescription
This indicator is designed to detect candles with small bodies and significant wick-to-body ratios, often useful for identifying doji-like structures and potential accumulation areas.
Features
Filter candles by maximum body size (% of the total candle range).
Require that wicks are at least X times larger than the body.
Define the position of the body within the candle (e.g., body must be between 40% and 60% of the candle height).
Visual output: a single arrow marker when conditions are met.
Fully customizable marker color and size.
⚠️ Note: The settings of this version are currently in Turkish. An English version of the settings will be released in the future.
Liquidity+FVG+OB Strategy (v6)How the strategy works (summary)
Entry Long when a Bullish FVG is detected (optionally requires a recent Bullish OB).
Entry Short when a Bearish FVG is detected (optionally requires a recent Bearish OB).
Stop Loss and Take Profit are placed using ATR multiples (configurable).
Position sizing is fixed contract/lot size (configurable).
You can require OB confirmation (within ob_confirm_window bars).
Alerts still exist and visuals are preserved.
Liquidity + FVG + OB Markings (Fixed v6)This indicator is built for price-action traders.
It automatically finds and plots three key structures on your chart:
Liquidity Levels – swing highs & lows that often get targeted by price.
Fair-Value Gaps (FVG) – inefficient price gaps between candles.
Order-Blocks (OB) – zones created by strong, high-volume impulsive candles.
It also provides alerts and a small information table so you can quickly gauge the current market context.
X VIBVolume Imbalance Zones
X VIB highlights price-levels where buying or selling pressure overwhelmed the opposing side within a single bar transition, leaving a void that the market often revisits. The script paints those voids as boxes so you can quickly see where liquidity may rest, where price may pause or react, and which imbalances persist across sessions.
What it plots
For each completed calculation bar (your chart’s timeframe or a higher timeframe you choose), the indicator draws a box that spans the prior bar’s close to the current bar’s open—only when that bar-to-bar transition exhibits a valid volume imbalance (VIB) by the selected rules. Boxes are time-anchored from the previous bar’s time to the current bar’s time close, and they are capped to a configurable count so the chart remains readable.
Two ways to define “Volume Imbalance”
X VIB calculates imbalances in two complementary ways. Both techniques isolate bar-to-bar displacement that reflects one-sided pressure, but they differ in strictness and how much confirmation they require.
Continuity VIB (Bar-to-Bar Displacement)
A strict definition that requires aligned progress and overlap between consecutive bars. In practical terms, a bullish continuity VIB demands that the new bar advances beyond the prior bar’s close, opens above it, and maintains upward progress without erasing the displacement; the bearish case mirrors this to the downside.
Use when: you want the cleanest, most structurally reliable voids that reflect decisive initiative flow.
Effect on boxes: typically fewer, higher-quality zones that mark locations of strong one-sided intent.
Gap-Qualified VIB (Displacement with Gap Confirmation)
A confirmatory definition that treats the bar-to-bar displacement as an imbalance only if the transition also observes a protective “gap-like” relationship with surrounding prices. This extra condition filters out many borderline transitions and emphasizes voids that were less likely to be traded through on their formation.
Use when: you want additional confirmation that the void had genuine follow-through pressure at birth.
Effect on boxes: often slightly fewer but “stickier” zones that can attract price on retests.
Both modes are drawn identically on the chart (as boxes spanning the displacement). Their difference is purely in the qualification of what counts as a VIB. You can display either set independently or together to compare how each mode surfaces structure.
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) logic
You can compute imbalances on a higher timeframe (e.g., 15-minute) while viewing a lower timeframe chart. When MTF is active, X VIB:
Samples open, high, low, close, time, and time_close from the selected HTF in a single, synchronized request (no gaps, no lookahead).
Only evaluates and draws boxes once per HTF bar close, ensuring clean, stable zones that don’t repaint intra-bar.
How traders use these zones
Reversion into voids: Price often returns to “fill” part of a void before deciding on continuation or reversal.
Context for entries/exits: VIB boxes provide precise, mechanically derived levels for limit entries, scale-outs, and invalidation points.
Confluence: Combine with session opens, HTF levels, or volatility bands to grade setups. Continuity VIBs can mark impulse anchors; Gap-Qualified VIBs often mark stickier pockets.
Inputs & controls
Calculate on higher timeframe? Toggle MTF computation; choose your Calc timeframe (e.g., 15).
Show VIBs: Master toggle for drawing imbalance boxes.
Color & Opacity: Pick the box fill and border intensity that suits your theme.
# Instances: Cap how many historical boxes remain on the chart to avoid clutter.
Notes & best practices
Signal density: Continuity VIBs tend to be more frequent on fast charts; Gap-Qualified VIBs are more selective. Try both and keep what aligns with your trade plan.
MTF discipline: When using a higher calc timeframe, analyze reactions primarily at that timeframe’s pace to avoid over-fitting to noise.
Lifecycle awareness: Not all voids fill. Track which boxes persist; durable voids often define the map of the session.
Strong Body Close Candle (90%)This indicator highlights Strong Body Close Candles, which are single bars where the real body makes up the vast majority of the total range and the close is positioned very close to the candle’s extreme. By default, the script looks for candles where the body is at least 90% of the full high-low range, and the close falls within the top 10% (for bullish) or bottom 10% (for bearish). These settings ensure that only very strong, conviction-driven candles are marked. The script plots labels above or below qualifying bars, colors the candle accordingly, and provides alert conditions so you can be notified in real time when such a candle forms.
Both percentages are fully adjustable so you can fine-tune the strictness of the definition. For example, if you change the body threshold to 85% and the close-to-extreme threshold to 15%, the script will highlight candles where the body makes up at least 85% of the total range and the close is within 15% of the high or low. This adjustment allows for a slightly looser definition, catching more frequent signals while still maintaining strength criteria. Built-in alerts let you choose between bullish and bearish signals separately (or both), ensuring you won’t miss setups even when you’re away from the chart.
This tool is flexible across timeframes and instruments. On lower timeframes, signals may appear more frequently, highlighting intraday momentum bursts, while on higher timeframes such as daily or weekly charts, these signals often represent periods of strong directional conviction. Traders can combine this indicator with additional filters such as trend direction, volume confirmation, VWAP, or moving averages to improve reliability and fit it into their broader strategy. Because the body and close thresholds are user-defined, you have control over whether the indicator is tuned to rare but powerful candles (stricter settings) or more frequent signals (looser settings).
The indicator is designed to be non-repainting since it only evaluates candles after they close. It can be used purely visually with chart labels and bar coloring or as part of an automated workflow with TradingView alerts. Alerts are triggered on bar close whenever a bullish or bearish strong body close candle is detected, allowing you to integrate them into your trading process via pop-ups, emails, mobile notifications, or webhooks. Whether you’re looking for sharp reversals, momentum continuation signals, or simply want to filter out weaker candles, this tool provides a clear and adjustable framework for identifying high-conviction bars.

Tristan's Star: 15m Shooting Star DetectorThis script is designed to be used on the 1-minute chart , but it analyzes the market as if you were watching the 15-minute candles.
Every cluster of 15 one-minute candles is grouped together and treated as a single 15-minute candle.
When that 15-minute “synthetic” candle looks like a shooting star pattern (small body near the low, long upper wick, short lower wick, bearish bias), the script triggers a signal.
At the close of that 15-minute cluster, the script will:
Plot a single “Sell” label on the last 1-minute bar of the group.
Draw a horizontal line across the 15 bars at the high, showing the level that created the shooting star.
Optionally display a table cell in the corner with the word “SELL.”
This lets you stay on the 1-minute timeframe for precision entries and exits, while still being alerted when the higher-timeframe (15-minute) shows a bearish reversal pattern.
Key Levels: Open & Midday🔹 Opening Candle (9:30 AM New York Time)
Plots the high and low of the first 5-minute candle after the market opens.
🔹 12:30 PM Candle (3 hours after open)
Plots the high and low of the candle formed exactly 3 hours after the market opens.
These levels are useful for:
Identifying support/resistance zones.
Creating breakout or reversal strategies.
Tracking intraday momentum shifts.
📌 Important Notes:
Designed for 5-minute charts.
Make sure your chart is set to New York time (exchange time) for accurate levels.

Multi-Symbol Volatility Tracker with Range DetectionMulti-Symbol Volatility Tracker with Range Detection
🎯 Main Purpose:
This indicator is specifically designed for scalpers to quickly identify symbols with high volatility that are currently in ranging conditions . It helps you spot the perfect opportunities for buying at lows and selling at highs repeatedly within the same trading session.
📊 Table Data Explanation:
The indicator displays a comprehensive table with 5 columns for 4 major symbols (GOLD, SILVER, NASDAQ, SP500):
SYMBOL: The trading instrument being analyzed
VOLATILITY: Color-coded volatility levels (NORMAL/HIGH/EXTREME) based on ATR values
Last Candle %: The percentage range of the most recent 5-minute candle
Last 5 Candle Avg %: Average percentage range over the last 5 candles
RANGE: Shows "YES" (blue) or "NO" (gray) indicating if the symbol is currently ranging
🔍 How to Identify Trading Opportunities:
Look for symbols that combine these characteristics:
RANGE column shows "YES" (highlighted in blue) - This means the symbol is moving sideways, perfect for range trading
VOLATILITY shows "HIGH" or "EXTREME" - Ensures there's enough movement for profitable scalping
Higher candlestick percentages - Indicates larger candle ranges, meaning more profit potential per trade
⚡ Optimal Usage:
Best Timeframe: Works optimally on 5-minute charts where the ranging patterns are most reliable for scalping
Trading Strategy: When you find a symbol with "YES" in the RANGE column, switch to that symbol and look for opportunities to buy near the lows and sell near the highs of the ranging pattern
Risk Management: Higher volatility symbols offer more profit potential but require tighter risk management
⚙️ Settings:
ATR Length: Adjusts the Average True Range calculation period (default: 14)
Range Sensitivity: Fine-tune range detection sensitivity (0.1-2.0, lower = more sensitive)
💡 Pro Tips:
The indicator updates in real-time, so monitor for symbols switching from "NO" to "YES" in the RANGE column
Combine HIGH/EXTREME volatility with RANGE: YES for the most profitable scalping setups
Use the candlestick percentages to gauge potential profit per trade - higher percentages mean more movement
The algorithm uses advanced statistical analysis including standard deviation, linear regression slopes, and range efficiency to accurately detect ranging conditions
Perfect for day traders and scalpers who want to quickly identify which symbols offer the best ranging opportunities for consistent buy-low, sell-high strategies.
CNagda Anchor2EntryCNagda Anchor2Entry Pine Script v6 overlay indicator pulls higher-timeframe (HTF) signal events to define anchor high/low levels and then projects visual entry labels on the lower-timeframe (LTF). It also draws auto-oriented Fibonacci retracement/extension levels for context, but it does not execute orders, stops, or targets—only visual guidance.
Inputs
Key inputs include Lookback Length for HTF scanning and a Signal Timeframe used with request.security to import HTF events onto the active chart.
Entry behavior can be set to “Confirm only” or “Wait candle,” trade side can be restricted to Buy/Sell/Both, and individual strategies (Buy WAIT/S1; Sell REV/S1/S2/S3) can be toggled.
HTF logic
The script defines WAIT/BUY setup and confirmation, SELL reversal on breaking the WAIT BUY low, and several volume/candle-based patterns (Sell S1/S2/S3, Buy S1).
It captures the associated highs/lows at those events with ta.valuewhen and imports them via request.security to form anchors (anc_hi/anc_lo) and “new trigger” booleans that gate label creation on the LTF.
Flip entries
When enabled, “Flip entries” generate contrarian labels based on breaking or confirming HTF anchors: crossing above anc_hi can trigger a flip-to-sell label, and crossing below anc_lo can trigger a flip-to-buy label.
The flip mode supports Immediate (on cross) or Confirm (on sustained break) to control how strict the trigger is.
Fibonacci drawing
User-specified Fib levels are parsed from a string, safely converted to floats, and drawn as dotted horizontal lines only when they fall inside an approximate visible viewport. Orientation (up or down) is decided automatically from pending signal direction and a simple context score (candle bias, trend, and price vs. mid), with efficient redraw/clear guards to avoid clutter.
Dynamic anchors
If HTF anchors are missing or too far from current price (checked with an ATR-based threshold), the script falls back to local swing highs/lows to keep the reference range relevant. This dynamic switch helps Fib levels and labels remain close to current market structure without manual intervention.
Signal labels
Labels are created only on confirmed bars to avoid repainting noise, with one “latest” label kept by deleting the previous one. The script places BUY/SELL labels for WAIT/CONFIRM, direct HTF patterns (Buy S1, Sell S1/S2/S3), and contrarian flip events, offset slightly from highs/lows with clear coloring and configurable sizes.
Visual context
Bars are softly colored (lime tint for bullish, orange tint for bearish) for quick context, and everything renders as an overlay on the price chart. Fib labels include a Δ readout (distance from current close), and line extension length, label sizes, and viewport padding are adjustable.
How to use
Set the Signal Timeframe and Lookback Length to establish which HTF structures and ranges will drive the anchors and entry conditions. Choose entry flow (Wait vs Confirm), enable Flip if contrarian triggers are desired, select the trade side, toggle strategies, and customize Fibonacci levels plus dynamic-anchor fallback for practical on-chart guidance.
Notes
This is a visual decision-support tool; it does not place trades, stops, or targets and should be validated on charts before live use. It is written for Pine Script v6 and relies heavily on request.security for HTF-to-LTF transfer of signals and anchors.
All Levels This script draws key price levels on your chart, including:
• Previous Day (PD): High, Low, Close
• Day Before Yesterday (DBY): High, Low, Close
• Pre-Market (PM): High and Low
• Today’s levels: High, Low, Open, Close
• Current bar levels: High, Low, Open, Close
Each level is displayed as a horizontal line with a label showing the level value.
It works on any timeframe, including 1-minute charts, and automatically updates as new bars form.
⸻
2. Features
1. Custom Colors
Each type of level has its own color, declared as a const color. For example:
• Previous Day High = red
• Today’s Close = gold
• Pre-Market High = fuchsia
2. Right-Extending Lines
All horizontal levels extend to the right, so you always see them on the chart.
3. Persistent Labels
Every line has a label at the right side showing its name and price. For example:
• PDH 422
• TODL 415.5
4. Dynamic Updates
The script updates automatically whenever a new bar forms, so levels stay accurate.
5. Session-Based Pre-Market
You can define the pre-market session (default “04:00–09:30 EST”). The script calculates the high and low of this session only.
6. Checkbox Inputs
You can enable/disable entire groups of levels:

Simple Turnover (Enhanced v2)📊 Simple Turnover (Enhanced)
🔹 Overview
The Simple Turnover Indicator calculates a stock’s turnover by combining both price and volume, and then compares it against quarterly highs. This helps traders quickly gauge whether market participation in a move is strong enough to confirm a breakout, or weak and likely to be false.
Unlike volume alone, turnover considers both traded volume and price level, giving a truer reflection of capital flow in/out of a stock.
________________________________________
🔹 Formulae Used
1. Average Price (SMA)
AvgPrice=SMA(Close,n)
2. Average Volume (SMA)
AvgVol=SMA(Volume,n)
3. Turnover (Raw)
Turnover raw=AvgPrice × AvgVol
4. Unit Adjustment
• If Millions → Turnover = Turnover raw × 10^−6
• If Crores → Turnover = Turnover raw × 10^−7
• If Raw → Turnover = Turnover raw
5. Quarterly High Turnover (qHigh)
Within each calendar quarter (Jan–Mar, Apr–Jun, Jul–Sep, Oct–Dec), we track the maximum turnover seen:
qHigh=max (Turnover within current quarter)
________________________________________
🔹 Visualization
• Bars → Color follows price candle:
o Green if Close ≥ Open
o Red if Close < Open
• Blue Line → Rolling Quarterly High Turnover (qHigh)
________________________________________
🔹 Strategy Use Case
The Simple Turnover Indicator is most effective for confirming true vs false breakouts.
• A true breakout should be supported by increasing turnover, showing real capital backing the move.
• A false breakout often occurs with weak or declining turnover, suggesting lack of conviction.
📌 Example Strategy (3H timeframe):
1. Identify a demand zone using your preferred supply-demand indicator.
2. From this demand zone, monitor turnover bars.
3. A potential long entry is validated when:
o The current turnover bar is at least 20% higher than the previous one or two bars.
o Example setting: SMA length = 5 (i.e., turnover = 5-bar average close × 5-bar average volume).
4. This confirms strong participation in the move, increasing probability of a sustained breakout.
________________________________________
🔹 Disclaimer
⚠️ This indicator/strategy does not guarantee 100% accurate results.
It is intended to improve the probability of identifying true breakouts.
The actual success of the strategy will depend on price action, market momentum, and prevailing market conditions.
Always use this as a supporting tool along with broader trading analysis and risk management.

EMP Probabilistic [CHE]Part 1 — For Traders (Practical Overview, no formulas)
What this tool does
EMP Probabilistic \ turns raw price action into a clean, probability-aware map. It builds two adaptive bands around the session open of a higher timeframe you choose (called the S-timeframe) and highlights a robust median threshold. At a glance you know:
Where price has recently tended to stay,
Whether current momentum sits above or below the median, and
A live Long vs. Short probability based on recent outcomes.
Why it improves decisions
Objective context in any regime: The nonparametric band comes straight from recent market behavior, without assuming a particular distribution.
Volatility-aware risk lens: The parametric band adapts to current volatility, helping you judge stretch and room for continuation or snap-back.
No lookahead: All stats update only after an S-bar is finished. That means the panel reflects information you truly had at that time.
How to read the chart
Orange band = empirical, distribution-free range derived from recent session returns (nonparametric).
Teal band = volatility-scaled range around the session open (parametric).
Median dots: green when close is above the median threshold, red when below.
Info panel: shows the active S-timeframe, window sizes, live coverage for both bands, the internal width parameter and volatility estimate, plus a one-line summary.
Probability label: “Long XX% • Short YY%” — a simple read on the recent balance of up vs. down S-bars.
How to use it (quick start)
1. Choose S-timeframe with Auto, Multiplier, or Manual. “Auto” scales your chart TF up to a sensible higher step.
2. Set alpha to control how tight the inner band should be. A typical value gives you a comfortable center zone without cutting off healthy trends.
3. Trade the context:
Trend-following: Prefer longs when price holds above the median; prefer shorts when it stays below.
Mean-reversion: Fade moves near the outer edges during ranges; look for reversion back toward the median.
Breakout filter: Require closes that push and hold beyond the volatility band for momentum plays; avoid noise when price chops inside the middle of the orange band.
Risk management made practical
Size positions relative to the teal band width to keep risk consistent across instruments and regimes.
For stops, many traders set them just beyond the opposite orange bound or use a fraction of the teal band.
Watch the panel’s coverage readouts and Brier score; when they deteriorate, the market may be shifting — reduce size or demand stronger confirmation.
Suggested presets
Scalping (Crypto/FX): Auto S-TF, alpha around a fifth, calibration window near two hundred, RS volatility, metrics window near two hundred.
Intraday Futures: Multiplier 3–5× your chart TF; similar alpha and window sizes; RS volatility is a solid default.
Swing/Equities: S-TF at least daily; test both RS and GK volatility modes; keep windows on the larger side for stability.
What makes it different
Two complementary lenses: a distribution-free read of recent behavior and a volatility-scaled read for risk and stretch.
Self-calibrating width: the parametric band quietly nudges its internal multiplier so actual coverage tracks your target.
Clean UX: grouped inputs, tooltips, an info panel that tells you what’s going on, and a simple median bias you can act on.
Repainting & timing
The logic updates only when the S-bar closes. On lower-timeframe charts you’ll see intrabar flips of the dot color — that’s just live price moving around. For strict signals, confirm on S-bar close.
Friendly note (not financial advice)
Use this as a context engine. It won’t predict the future, but it will keep you on the right side of probability and volatility more often, which is exactly where consistency starts.
Part 2 — Under the Hood (Conceptual, no formulas)
Data and timeframe design
The script works on a higher S-timeframe you select. It fetches the open, high, low, close, and time of that S-bar. Internally, it only updates its rolling windows after an S-bar has finished. It then pushes the previous S-bar’s statistics into its arrays. That design removes lookahead and keeps the metrics out-of-sample relative to the current S-bar.
Nonparametric band (distribution-free)
The orange band comes from the empirical distribution of recent session-level close-minus-open moves. The script keeps a rolling window, sorts a safe copy, and reads three key points: a lower bound, a median, and an upper bound. Because it’s based purely on observed outcomes, it adapts naturally to skew, fat tails, and regime shifts without assuming any particular shape. The orange range shows “where price has tended to live” lately on the chosen S-timeframe.
Parametric band (volatility-scaled)
The teal band models log-space variability around the session open using one of two well-known OHLC volatility estimators: Rogers–Satchell or Garman–Klass. Each estimator contributes a per-bar variance figure; the script averages these across the rolling window to form a current volatility scale. It then builds a symmetric band around the session open in price space. This gives you a volatility-aware notion of stretch that complements the distribution-free orange band.
Self-calibration of band width
The teal band has an internal width multiplier. After each completed S-bar the script checks whether the realized move stayed inside that band. If the band was too tight, the multiplier is nudged upward; if it was too loose, it’s eased downward. A simple learning rate governs how quickly it adapts. Over time this keeps the realized inside-coverage close to the target implied by your alpha setting, without you having to hand-tune anything.
Long/Short probability and calibration quality
The Long vs. Short probability is a transparent statistic: it’s just the recent fraction of up sessions in the rolling window. It is not a complex model — and that’s the point. You get an honest, intuitive read on directional tendency.
To monitor how well this simple probability lines up with reality, the script tracks a Brier-style score over a separate metrics window. Lower is better: it means your recent probability read has matched outcomes more closely.
Coverage tracking for both bands
The panel reports coverage for the orange band (nonparametric) and the teal band (parametric). These are rolling averages of how often recent S-bar moves landed inside each band. Watching these two numbers tells you whether market behavior still aligns with the recent distribution and with the current volatility model.
Why it doesn’t repaint
Because the arrays update only when an S-bar closes and only push the previous bar’s stats, the panel and metrics reflect information you had at the time. Intrabar visuals can change while a bar is forming — that’s expected — but the decision framework itself is anchored to completed S-bars.
Performance and practicality
The heaviest step is sorting a copy of the window for the nonparametric band. With typical window sizes this stays responsive on TradingView. The volatility estimators and rolling averages are lightweight. Inputs are grouped with clear tooltips so you can tune without hunting.
Limitations and good practice
In thin or gappy markets the bands can jump; consider a larger window or a higher S-timeframe.
During violent regime shifts, shorten the window and increase the learning rate slightly so the teal band catches up faster — but don’t overdo it, or you’ll chase noise.
The Long/Short probability is intentionally simple; it’s a context indicator, not a standalone signal factory. Combine it with structure, volume, or your execution rules.
Takeaway
Under the hood, the script blends empirical behavior and volatility scaling, then self-calibrates so the teal band’s real-world coverage stays near your target. You get clarity, consistency, and a dashboard that tells you when its own assumptions are holding up — exactly what you need to trade with confidence.
