Engulfing Candle Indicator with Single AlertEngulfing Candle Indicator with Alerts
This custom Pine Script indicator identifies Bullish and Bearish Engulfing Candles on the price chart, which are key reversal patterns. A Bullish Engulfing occurs when a smaller bearish candle is completely engulfed by a subsequent bullish candle, signaling a potential upward trend. Conversely, a Bearish Engulfing happens when a bullish candle is engulfed by a following bearish candle, indicating a possible downward trend.
The indicator highlights these patterns on the chart with green arrows for Bullish Engulfing and red arrows for Bearish Engulfing. It also includes an alert system that notifies the user whenever either of these patterns occurs.
The script uses an Average True Range (ATR) filter to ensure that the engulfing candles have sufficient size relative to market volatility. Additionally, users can adjust the minimum engulfing size to fine-tune the signal.

Dynamic Zone Risk Manager [Algo Seeker]Introduction
The Algo Seeker: Dynamic Zone Risk Manager excels in both ranging and trending market conditions. It merges two critical trading components: a zone identification system that allows traders to anticipate price movement within structured ranges and a dynamic risk assessment table that optimizes position sizing based on account parameters and zone-specific characteristics, while also calculating trade-specific risk and reward.
For traders struggling with consistent risk management and identifying high-probability zones, particularly in challenging ranging market conditions, this tool provides a structured framework that enhances precision in trading decisions and capital allocation — addressing two of the most common challenges in trading.
🟠 Unique Features & Trading Benefits
Advanced Zone Structuring:
🟢 The indicator adapts to different trading styles through Scalp, Swing, and Investor modes. Scalp mode generates tight, precise zones optimized for intraday price movements and quick trades completed within minutes or hours. Swing mode creates intermediate zones calibrated for positions held for the entire day or a few weeks, providing optimal zone structures for medium-term trading approaches. Investor mode establishes broader zones designed specifically for positions spanning a few weeks to a few months, identifying major support and resistance levels for extended holding periods.
🟢 These zones are particularly useful during ranging markets. They define clear price ranges within which movement may oscillate based on the selected trading horizon. Such clarity helps traders anticipate potential bounce areas and manage trades more effectively, even when the market lacks a clear directional trend.
🟢 The system transforms static price levels into comprehensive trading zones with clearly defined boundaries. The multi-dimensional architecture creates actionable entry, exit, and management levels that remain relevant across different market conditions.
Unique Risk Management:
🟢 A dynamic risk table that calculates position sizing based on the trader's actual account size. When traders select Scalp, Swing, or Investor mode, the table automatically computes the optimal capital allocation specifically for that mode and the current zone.
🟢 The table provides exact dollar amounts for both risk and potential reward based on current price position within the zone. If price is already moving through a zone, the table dynamically updates to show how much of the potential reward remains available.
🟢 This precise risk management system gives traders a clear, quantified understanding of exactly how much capital to allocate per trade, the specific dollar amount at risk, and the remaining profit potential—all updating in real-time as price moves through the zones.
Dynamic Cost Basis Analysis:
🟢 Continuously calculates optimal midpoints within each zone, creating additional precision pivot points that traditional tools can lack. These dynamic reference points enhance trade accuracy in ranging markets while providing essential data points for the integrated risk management calculations.
🟠 The Power of Integration: Zones Meet Risk Management
The true power of the Algo Seeker: Dynamic Zone Risk Manager emerges when these components work together as a unified system. The trader-selected strategy zones and dynamic risk table create a complete trading ecosystem that addresses the three critical elements of successful trading:
1. Precision Entry Points: Zone boundaries provide clear entry thresholds optimized for your selected trading mode (Scalp, Swing, or Investor), eliminating guesswork around optimal trade initiation points.
2. Disciplined Risk Control: The risk table's exact dollar calculations remove emotional decision-making from position sizing and stop placement, creating a consistent risk approach regardless of market volatility.
3. Strategic Exit Management: As price moves through zones, both visual cues and quantified metrics guide intelligent profit-taking decisions, preventing the common mistake of exiting too early or holding too long.
This synchronized framework transforms theoretical analysis into practical execution, giving traders a complete toolset for managing the entire lifecycle of each trade with precision and confidence.
🟠 Additional Algo Benefits
Psychological Trading Edge:
The Algo Seeker: Dynamic Zone Risk Manager addresses the most challenging aspect of trading—emotional decision-making. By transforming complex risk/reward calculations into clear, quantified metrics, the system eliminates decision paralysis and reactionary trading. Traders gain immediate clarity during volatile conditions through the visual integration of precise zones and risk parameters. This psychological framework cultivates discipline and confidence when market noise typically triggers impulsive decisions, allowing for consistent execution even during challenging market environments.
Efficiency and Time Value:
The system delivers exceptional time efficiency by eliminating the need for manual risk calculations, zone identification, and position sizing. What typically requires multiple tools and extensive spreadsheet calculations is seamlessly integrated into a unified interface. Traders receive immediate, actionable insights without the cognitive burden of juggling separate indicators. This allows professionals to focus on strategic decisions rather than technical calculations.
Advanced User Customization:
Unlike one-size-fits-all indicators, the Algo Seeker: Dynamic Zone Risk Manager adapts to individual trading methodologies. The system accommodates personalized account parameters and allocates capital differently based on three distinct trading modes—scalping, swing trading, and investing. This flexibility allows professional traders to implement their unique strategy while maintaining precise risk control across different positions and time horizons. The customizable table positioning and color schemes further enhance workflow integration for diverse trading environments.
🟠 How to Use
Initial Setup
1. Lookback Parameter: The Lookback Period determines which candle data the Dynamic Zone Risk Manager uses to establish trading zones:
🟢Lookback = 1 (Default): Uses the most recent closed candle to calculate zones. This provides stable analysis based on completed price action and is recommended for most trading scenarios.
🟢Lookback = 0: Uses the current, still-forming candle. This offers more immediate responsiveness, but zones may change as the candle develops. For consistent zone analysis, Lookback = 1 typically offers a better foundation.
2. Configure Account Parameters: Input your total trading capital in the settings panel to customize risk calculations specific to your account size.
3. Select Trading Mode: Choose between Scalp, Swing, or Investor modes based on your preferred trade style:
🟢Scalp: For intraday movements (minutes to hours)
🟢Swing: For medium-term positions (days to weeks)
🟢 Investor: For longer-term positions (weeks to months)
4. Account Parameters Setup: The risk management component requires your account size to provide accurate position sizing calculations.
🟢Total Account Size: Enter your total trading capital in the "Total Account Size ($)" input. All risk calculations are based on this value.
🟢Trading Allocation Percentages: The system allows you to divide your capital across three trading modes.
1. Scalp Allocation (%): Percentage of capital reserved for short-term trades
2. Swing Allocation (%): Percentage of capital for medium-term positions
3. Invest Allocation (%): Percentage of capital for longer-term investments
These percentages can be customized to match your personal trading strategy and risk tolerance.
Margin Multiplier: Adjust the margin multiplier value based on your broker's requirements and your preferred leverage.
The system uses these parameters to calculate appropriate position sizes for each trading mode, ensuring your risk exposure remains aligned with your capital management plan.
5.Visual Customization: Adjust color schemes and table positions to optimize for your workspace layout and visual preferences.
🟠 Risk Table Explanation
The dynamic risk tables provide real-time position sizing and risk metrics as price moves through different zones:
1. Zone Column: Displays the current zone where price is located.
2. Zone Size: Shows the total price range of the current zone.
3. Trade Type: Indicates the trading style (Scalp, Swing, or Invest).
4. Shares: Displays the calculated position size (number of shares) based on your account parameters and the current zone.
5. Risk($): Shows the approximate dollar amount at risk if the trade moves against you within the zone.
6. Reward($): Displays the potential dollar return if price moves completely through the zone in your favor.
7. Left: Indicates how much potential movement remains within the current zone based on the latest price.
The table updates dynamically as price moves, giving you real-time risk/reward information. Each trading style is displayed separately, allowing you to compare potential position sizes across different trade modes while maintaining consistent risk management.
🟠 Strategic Execution
Strategy Usage Example
The Algo Seeker: Dynamic Zone Risk Manager provides a complete framework for precise trading decisions. Here's how you might leverage its power:
1. Zone-Based Trading: The indicator identifies key zones and levels that serve as powerful pivot points. These are not arbitrary levels but mathematically derived zones where price is likely to react. Use these zones directly for your trading decisions.
2. Precision Entries: For long positions, enter near the lower boundary of a zone with targets at the upper boundary. For shorts, enter near the upper boundary with targets at the lower boundary. These levels identify potential entry points based on the underlying market structure.
3. Risk Management: The zone, level, or cost basis below your entry (for longs) or above your entry (for shorts) can serve as logical places to set stop losses, helping you define your risk on each trade.
4. Position Sizing Precision: Use the exact share/contract quantities displayed in the risk table. This eliminates guesswork in position sizing and provides both risk and profit calculations that align perfectly with your capital management strategy.
5. Strategic Exits: Take profits at the target zone boundaries identified by the indicator. These levels represent mathematical points where price may encounter resistance or support, providing potential exit opportunities.
6. Advanced Strategy Options:
🟢Consider taking partial profits at cost basis (midpoint) levels
🟢Trade from zone to zone using the defined boundaries
🟢Scale in or out at specific zone transitions
🟢Set trailing stops at subsequent zone boundaries as price progresses
The strength of this indicator lies in its ability to provide all the critical decision points needed for a complete trade - from entry to exit, with precise position sizing - all derived from its sophisticated algorithmic analysis rather than subjective interpretation.
🟠 Alert Configuration
1. Zone Crossovers: Set alerts for when price transitions between key zones.
2. Cost Basis Interactions: Configure notifications for when price approaches optimal entry points.
The Algo Seeker Wizard Ultra Risk represents years of development and refinement in professional trading environments. Its integration of sophisticated zone identification with precise risk management creates a comprehensive framework that transforms theoretical market analysis into actionable trading decisions with quantified risk parameters.

CISD with Alerts [neo|]█ OVERVIEW
CISD (or Change in State of Delivery) is an ICT concept and reversal pattern which may allow traders to identify reversals or changes in market structure early, compared to using traditional market structure. This script aims to correctly identify, and update these levels and provide alerts, so that traders can take advantage of this concept with ease.
█ CONCEPTS
Simply put, CISD may be identified when price closes above the open of the candle which started the most recent downtrend or liquidity sweep. Generally, it is most powerful when applied to key points in the market as a confirmation from where you may want price to reverse.
For example, when price is in a downtrend, we take the open of the last consecutive downwards candle and observe the CISD once price closes above it, beginning an uptrend.
Examples:
COMEX:GC1!
CME_MINI:NQ1!
█ How to use
To use the indicator, simply apply it to your chart and modify any of your desired inputs.
• Bullish CISD color allows you to change the color of +CISD levels.
• Bearish CISD color allows you to change the color of -CISD levels.
• Line width allows you to modify the width of +-CISD lines.
• Line extension bars allows you to change how far ahead CISD levels are drawn (by default it is 5).
• Keep old CISD levels will allow you to preserve all past CISD levels if you would like to observe the logic.
• Enable stat table will let you add a table on your chart which will tell you the current CISD trend, as well as your ticker and timeframe.
• Table position allows you to customize where the table will appear on your chart.
GQT GPT - Volume-based Support & Resistance Zones V2搞钱兔，搞钱是为了更好的生活。
Title: GQT GPT - Volume-based Support & Resistance Zones V2
Overview:
This strategy is implemented in PineScript v5 and is designed to identify key support and resistance zones based on volume-driven fractal analysis on a 1-hour timeframe. It computes fractal high points (for resistance) and fractal low points (for support) using volume moving averages and specific price action criteria. These zones are visually represented on the chart with customizable lines and zone fills.
Trading Logic:
• Entry: The strategy initiates a long position when the price crosses into the support zone (i.e., when the price drops into a predetermined support area).
• Exit: The long position is closed when the price enters the resistance zone (i.e., when the price rises into a predetermined resistance area).
• Time Frame: Trading signals are generated solely from the 1-hour chart. The strategy is only active within a specified start and end date.
• Note: Only long trades are executed; short selling is not part of the strategy.
Visualization and Parameters:
• Support/Resistance Zones: The zones are drawn based on calculated fractal values, with options to extend the lines to the right for easier tracking.
• Customization: Users can configure the appearance, such as line style (solid, dotted, dashed), line width, colors, and label positions.
• Volume Filtering: A volume moving average threshold is used to confirm the fractal signals, enhancing the reliability of the support and resistance levels.
• Alerts: The strategy includes alert conditions for when the price enters the support or resistance zones, allowing for timely notifications.

Body Percentage of Range (Colored)Short Description:
This indicator measures the dominance of the candle's body relative to its total range (High - Low), providing a visual gauge of intra-candle strength versus indecision. Columns are colored based on whether the body constitutes more or less than a defined percentage (default 50%) of the candle's total height.
Detailed Description:
What it Does:
The "Body Percentage of Range" indicator calculates, for each candle, what percentage of the total price range (High minus Low) is occupied by the candle's body (absolute difference between Open and Close).
A value of 100% means the candle has no wicks (a Marubozu), indicating strong conviction during that period.
A value of 0% means the candle has no body (a Doji), indicating perfect indecision.
Values in between show the relative balance between the directional move (body) and the price exploration/rejection (wicks).
How to Interpret:
The indicator plots this percentage as columns:
Column Height: Represents the percentage of the body relative to the total range. Higher columns indicate a larger body dominance.
Column Color:
Green Columns: Appear when the body percentage is above the user-defined threshold (default 50%). This suggests that the directional move within the candle was stronger than the indecision (wicks). Often seen during trending moves or strong momentum candles.
Red Columns: Appear when the body percentage is at or below the user-defined threshold (default 50%). This suggests that wicks dominate the candle (body is 50% or less of the range), indicating significant indecision, struggle between buyers and sellers, or potential reversals. These are common in choppy, consolidating, or reversal market conditions.
Orange Line (Optional MA): A Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the body percentages is plotted to help smooth the readings and identify broader periods where candle structure indicates more trending (high MA) vs. ranging/indecisive (low MA) characteristics.
Potential Use Cases:
Identifying Choppy vs. Trending Markets: Sustained periods of low, predominantly red columns (and often a low/declining MA) can signal a choppy, range-bound market where trend-following strategies might underperform. Conversely, periods with frequent high, green columns suggest a more trending environment.
Confirming Breakouts/Momentum: High green columns appearing alongside increased volume during a breakout can add conviction to the move's strength.
Spotting Potential Exhaustion/Reversals: A very tall green column after a strong trend, followed immediately by a low red column (like a Doji or Spinning Top pattern appearing on the price chart), might signal potential exhaustion or a pending reversal, indicating indecision has suddenly entered the market.
Filtering Entries: Traders might avoid taking entries (especially trend-following ones) when the indicator shows a consistent pattern of low red columns, suggesting high market indecision.
Settings:
Color Threshold %: Allows you to set the percentage level above which columns turn green (default is 50%).
Smoothing MA Length: Adjusts the lookback period for the Simple Moving Average.
Disclaimer:
This indicator is a tool for technical analysis and should be used in conjunction with other methods (like price action, volume analysis, other indicators) and robust risk management. It does not provide direct buy/sell signals and past performance is not indicative of future results.

Rubotics TDI Top/Bottom Indicator**Rubotics TDI Top/Bottom Indicator (Rubots TDI T/B)**
This proprietary indicator integrates several technical analysis tools into one cohesive system to help traders identify potential top and bottom signals directly on the price chart. Unlike standard indicators that merely plot common metrics, this script uniquely fuses a custom moving average algorithm with established oscillators to enhance signal clarity and market timing.
**Core Components and Unique Features:**
- **Global Visual Settings:**
- Easily toggle visual elements (tables, background highlights) that display key metrics and trading setup information.
- Provides a detailed on-chart display of strategy data and essential trading parameters.
- **MAVW Calculation (Proprietary):**
- Computes a series of weighted moving averages using Fibonacci-inspired lengths (3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34) to generate a dynamic moving average (MAVW).
- The MAVW line is color-coded—blue when trending upward, red when trending downward, and yellow when neutral—to offer an immediate visual cue of market direction.
- **RSI Module:**
- Calculates the RSI on a user-selected price source (default: close) with a customizable period (default: 14).
- Adjustable thresholds (default: 45 and 55) allow for fine-tuning of overbought and oversold conditions.
- **TDI Component:**
- Adapts the RSI into a dynamic channel using a simple moving average and a scaled standard deviation (multiplied by 1.6185) to form upper and lower bands.
- Incorporates both fast and slow moving averages (default periods: 2 and 7) with optional band filling to visually highlight momentum changes.
- **Note:** The TDI logic is based on public methodologies for converting RSI data into a dynamic indicator.
- **WaveTrend Oscillator:**
- Uses configurable channel and smoothing parameters to generate a WaveTrend line for additional momentum confirmation.
- The oscillator is used to further validate top and bottom signals by identifying overbought or oversold conditions.
- **Note:** The WaveTrend calculations are derived from widely available, public-domain techniques.
- **Signal Generation:**
- **Buy Signal:** Generated when the RSI is below its lower threshold, the TDI fast MA crosses above the lower band (with prior bar confirmation), the price is below the MAVW, and the WaveTrend indicates oversold conditions.
- **Sell Signal:** Generated when the RSI is above its upper threshold, the TDI fast MA crosses below the upper band (with prior bar confirmation), the price is above the MAVW, and the WaveTrend signals overbought conditions.
- Signals are visually marked on the chart with upward and downward triangles and accompanied by alert conditions.
- **Volume-Based Bar Coloring & Additional Visuals:**
- Colors price bars based on volume relative to a moving average to highlight the strength of moves.
- Provides background color changes and a dynamic table of key metric values (MAVW, RSI, TDI bands, WaveTrend) for real-time analysis.
**Customization and Originality:**
- Extensive input parameters allow traders to adjust each component to suit their trading style and market conditions.
- The unique combination of the proprietary MAVW calculation with traditional RSI, TDI, and WaveTrend elements creates a robust system for detecting market tops and bottoms.
- **Closed-Source Justification:**
This indicator is published as a closed-source script due to the proprietary enhancements integrated into the MAVW algorithm and signal generation logic. These unique modifications provide added value beyond standard public indicators.
EMA Shakeout DetectorEMA Shakeout & Reclaim Zones
Description:
This Pine Script helps traders quickly identify potential shakeout entries based on price action and volume dynamics. Shakeouts often signal strong accumulation, where institutions drive the stock below a key moving average before reclaiming it, creating an opportunity for traders to enter at favorable prices.
How It Works:
1. Volume Surge Filtering:
a. Computes the 51-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) of volume.
b. Identifies days where volume surged 2x above the 51-day average.
c. Filters stocks that had at least two such high-volume days in the last 21 trading days (configurable).
2. Stock Selection Criteria:
a. The stock must be within 25% of its 52-week high.
b. It should have rallied at least 30% from its 52-week low.
Shakeout Conditions:
1. The stock must be trading above the 51-day EMA before the shakeout.
2. A sudden price drop of more than 10% occurs, pushing the stock below the 51-day EMA.
3. A key index (e.g., Nifty 50, S&P 500) must be trading above its 10-day EMA, ensuring overall market strength.
Visualization:
Shakeout zones are highlighted in blue, making it easier to spot potential accumulation areas and study price & volume action in more detail.
This script is ideal for traders looking to identify institutional shakeouts and gain an edge by recognizing high-probability reversal setups.
Multi-timeframe Trend & Momentum DashboardMulti-Timeframe Trend & Momentum Dashboard
This indicator is a comprehensive multi-timeframe analysis tool designed for traders who want to quickly assess market trends and momentum across several timeframes. It combines trend detection with duration tracking and displays key information in an easy-to-read on-chart table. Key features include:
Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
Analyzes nine different timeframes (from 1-minute up to 1-week) simultaneously, helping you gauge the overall market trend at a glance.
Trend Detection & Duration:
Uses a combination of a short-term EMA and a long-term SMA to determine whether the market is bullish, bearish, or neutral. It also tracks how long the current trend has persisted in terms of consecutive bars and displays this duration next to each timeframe.
RSI Display & Visual Alerts:
Calculates the RSI for each timeframe. RSI values are color-coded—green when above 50 (indicating bullish momentum) and red when below 50 (indicating bearish conditions).

Stage Analysis with 50 DMAStan Weinstein's Stage Analysis is a methodology introduced in his seminal book, *"Secrets for Profiting in Bull and Bear Markets"*. This approach divides a stock's lifecycle into four distinct stages, each characterized by specific price behaviors and investor sentiments:
1. Stage 1: Basing (Accumulation)
- **Characteristics:** A period of consolidation where the stock trades within a horizontal range, indicating indecision between buyers and sellers.
- **Investor Sentiment:** Accumulation phase where informed investors begin to purchase shares in anticipation of future gains.
2. **Stage 2: Advancing (Markup)**
- **Characteristics:** A strong uptrend marked by higher highs and higher lows, reflecting increasing demand and positive market sentiment.
- **Investor Sentiment:** Optimism prevails as the stock gains momentum, attracting more investors.
3. **Stage 3: Topping (Distribution)**
- **Characteristics:** A peak phase where the stock's price movement becomes volatile, often forming a rounded top, signaling a potential reversal.
- **Investor Sentiment:** Distribution phase where investors sell off holdings, anticipating a downturn.
4. **Stage 4: Declining (Markdown)**
- **Characteristics:** A downtrend characterized by lower lows and lower highs, indicating a shift in control from bulls to bears.
- **Investor Sentiment:** Pessimism dominates as the stock loses value, leading to further selling pressure.
Incorporating the **50-Day Simple Moving Average (SMA)** into this analysis enhances the ability to identify and confirm these stages. The 50-day SMA represents the average closing price over the past 50 trading days, providing a smoothed line that reflects the stock's recent price action. Traders widely use the 50-day SMA as a trend indicator, with its position relative to the stock's price offering insights into market sentiment.
**Rationale for Using the 50-Day SMA in Stage Analysis:**
- **Trend Confirmation:** The 50-day SMA serves as a dynamic indicator of the stock's intermediate-term trend. In Stage 2 (Advancing), the price typically remains above the 50-day SMA, confirming bullish momentum. Conversely, in Stage 4 (Declining), the price often stays below the 50-day SMA, reinforcing bearish sentiment.
- **Support and Resistance Levels:** The 50-day SMA often acts as a dynamic support or resistance level. In an uptrend, the price may pull back to the 50-day SMA and then resume its rise. In a downtrend, rallies may be capped near the 50-day SMA before the decline continues.
- **Signal Timing:** Utilizing the 50-day SMA alongside Stage Analysis provides timely buy and sell signals. A crossover of the price above the 50-day SMA during Stage 2 can reinforce the strength of the uptrend, while a crossover below during Stage 4 can signal the onset of a downtrend.
By integrating the 50-day SMA into Stage Analysis, traders gain a nuanced understanding of a stock's price cycle, enhancing their ability to make informed trading decisions based on both trend direction and momentum.

Box Chart Overlay StrategyExploring the Box Chart Overlay Strategy with RSI & Bollinger Confirmation
The “Box Chart Overlay Strategy by BD” is a sophisticated TradingView strategy script written in Pine Script (version 5). It combines a box charting method with two widely used technical indicators—Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Bollinger Bands—to generate trade entries. In this article, we break down the strategy’s components, its logic, and how it visually represents trading signals on the chart.
1. Strategy Setup and User Inputs
Strategy Declaration
At the top of the script, the strategy is declared with key parameters:
Overlay: The indicator is plotted directly on the price chart.
Initial Capital & Position Sizing: It uses a simulated trading account with an initial capital of 10,000 and positions sized as a percentage of equity (10% by default).
Commission: A commission of 0.1% is factored into trades.
Input Parameters
The strategy is highly customizable. Users can adjust various inputs such as:
Box Settings:
Box Size (RSboxSize): Defines the size of each price “box.”
Box Options: Choose from three modes:
Standard: Boxes are calculated continuously from the start of the chart.
Anchored: The first box is fixed at a specified time and price.
Daily Reset: The boxes reset each day based on a defined session time.
Color Customizations:
Options to customize the appearance of boxes, borders, labels, and even repainting the candles based on the current price’s relation to box levels.
RSI Settings:
Length, overbought, and oversold levels are set to filter trades.
Bollinger Bands Settings:
Users can set the length of the moving average and the multiplier for standard deviation, which will be used to compute the upper and lower bands.
2. The Box Chart Mechanism
Box Construction
The core idea of a box chart is to group price movement into discrete blocks—or boxes—of a fixed size. In this strategy:
Standard Mode:
The script calculates boxes starting at a rounded price level. When the price moves sufficiently above or below the current box’s boundaries, a new box is drawn.
Anchored and Daily Reset Modes:
These modes allow traders to control where the box calculations begin or to reset them during a specific intraday session.
Visual Elements
Several custom functions handle the visual components:
drawBoxUp() and drawBoxDn():
These functions create boxes in bullish or bearish directions respectively, based on whether the price has exceeded the current box’s high or low.
drawLines() and drawLabels():
Lines are drawn to extend the current box levels, and labels are updated to display key levels or the “remainder” (the difference needed to trigger a new box).
Projected Boxes:
A “projected” box is drawn to indicate potential upcoming box levels, providing an additional visual cue about the price action.
3. Integrating RSI and Bollinger Bands for Trade Confirmation
RSI Integration
The strategy computes the RSI using a user-defined length. It then uses the following conditions to validate entries:
Long Trades (Box Up):
The strategy waits for the RSI to be at or below the oversold level before considering a long entry.
Short Trades (Box Down):
It requires the RSI to be at or above the overbought level before triggering a short entry.
Bollinger Bands Confirmation
In addition to the RSI filter:
For Long Entries:
The price must be at or below the lower Bollinger Band.
For Short Entries:
The price must be at or above the upper Bollinger Band.
By combining these filters with the box breakout logic, the strategy aims to enhance the quality of its trade signals.
4. Dynamic Trade Entries and Alerts
Box Logic and Entry Functions
Two key functions—BoxUpFunc() and BoxDownFunc()—handle the creation of new boxes and also check if trade conditions are met:
When a new box is drawn, the script evaluates if the RSI and Bollinger conditions align.
If conditions are satisfied, the script places an entry order:
Long Entry: Initiated when the price moves upward, RSI indicates oversold, and the price touches or falls below the lower Bollinger Band.
Short Entry: Triggered when the price falls downward, RSI signals overbought, and the price touches or exceeds the upper Bollinger Band.
Alerts
Built-in alert functions notify traders when a new box level is reached. Users can set custom alert messages to ensure they are aware of potential trade opportunities as soon as the conditions are met.
5. Visual Enhancements and Candle Repainting
The script also includes options for repainting candles based on their relation to the current box’s boundaries:
Above, Below, or Within the Box:
Candles are color-coded using user-defined colors, making it easier to visually assess where the price is in relation to the box levels.
Labels and Lines:
These continuously update to reflect current levels and provide an immediate visual reference for potential breakout points.
Conclusion
The Box Chart Overlay Strategy by BD is a multi-faceted approach that marries the traditional box chart technique with modern technical indicators—RSI and Bollinger Bands—to refine entry signals. By offering various customization options for box creation, visual styling, and confirmation criteria, the strategy allows traders to adapt it to different market conditions and personal trading styles. Whether you prefer a continuously running “Standard” mode or a more controlled “Anchored” or “Daily Reset” approach, this strategy provides a robust framework for integrating price action with momentum and volatility measures.

[TehThomas] - ICT Inversion Fair value Gap (IFVG) The Inversion Fair Value Gap (IFVG) indicator is a powerful tool designed for traders who utilize ICT (Inner Circle Trader) strategies. It focuses on identifying and displaying Inversion Fair Value Gaps, which are critical zones that emerge when traditional Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) are invalidated by price action. These gaps represent key areas where price often reacts, making them essential for identifying potential reversals, trend continuations, and liquidity zones.
What Are Inversion Fair Value Gaps?
Inversion Fair Value Gaps occur when price revisits a traditional FVG and breaks through it, effectively flipping its role in the market. For example:
A bullish FVG that is invalidated becomes a bearish zone, often acting as resistance.
A bearish FVG that is invalidated transforms into a bullish zone, serving as support.
These gaps are significant because they often align with institutional trading activity. They highlight areas where large orders have been executed or where liquidity has been targeted. Understanding these gaps provides traders with a deeper insight into market structure and helps them anticipate future price movements with greater accuracy.
Why This Strategy Works
The IFVG concept is rooted in ICT principles, which emphasize liquidity dynamics, market inefficiencies, and institutional order flow. Traditional FVGs represent imbalances in price action caused by gaps between candles. When these gaps are invalidated, they become inversion zones that can act as magnets for price. These zones frequently serve as high-probability areas for price reversals or trend continuations.
This strategy works because it aligns with how institutional traders operate. Inversion gaps often mark areas of interest for "smart money," making them reliable indicators of potential market turning points. By focusing on these zones, traders can align their strategies with institutional behavior and improve their overall trading edge.
How the Indicator Works
This indicator simplifies the process of identifying and tracking IFVGs by automating their detection and visualization on the chart. It scans the chart in real-time to identify bullish and bearish FVGs that meet user-defined thresholds for inversion. Once identified, these gaps are dynamically displayed on the chart with distinct colors for bullish and bearish zones.
The indicator also tracks whether these gaps are mitigated or broken by price action. When an IFVG is broken, it extends the zone for a user-defined number of bars to visualize its potential role as a new support or resistance level. Additionally, alerts can be enabled to notify traders when new IFVGs form or when existing ones are broken, ensuring timely decision-making in fast-moving markets.
Key Features
Automatic Detection: The indicator automatically identifies bullish and bearish IFVGs based on user-defined thresholds.
Dynamic Visualization: It displays IFVGs directly on the chart with customizable colors for easy differentiation.
Real-Time Updates: The status of each IFVG is updated dynamically based on price action.
Zone Extensions: Broken IFVGs are extended to visualize their potential as support or resistance levels.
Alerts: Notifications can be set up to alert traders when key events occur, such as the formation or breaking of an IFVG.
These features make the tool highly efficient and reduce the need for manual analysis, allowing traders to focus on execution rather than tedious chart work.
Benefits of Using This Indicator
The IFVG indicator offers several advantages that make it an indispensable tool for ICT traders. By automating the detection of inversion gaps, it saves time and reduces errors in analysis. The clearly defined zones improve risk management by providing precise entry points, stop-loss levels, and profit targets based on market structure.
This tool is also highly versatile and adapts seamlessly across different timeframes. Whether you’re scalping lower timeframes or swing trading higher ones, it provides actionable insights tailored to your trading style. Furthermore, by aligning your strategy with institutional logic, you gain a significant edge in anticipating market movements.
Practical Applications
This indicator can be used across various trading styles:
Scalping: Identify quick reversal points on lower timeframes using real-time alerts.
Day Trading: Use inversion gaps as key levels for intraday support/resistance or trend continuation setups.
Swing Trading: Analyse higher timeframes to identify major inversion zones that could act as critical turning points in larger trends.
By integrating this tool into your trading routine, you can streamline your analysis process and focus on executing high-probability setups.
Conclusion
The Inversion Fair Value Gap (IFVG) indicator is more than just a technical analysis tool—it’s a strategic ally for traders looking to refine their edge in the markets. By automating the detection and tracking of inversion gaps based on ICT principles, it simplifies complex market analysis while maintaining accuracy and depth. Whether you’re new to ICT strategies or an experienced trader seeking greater precision, this indicator will elevate your trading game by aligning your approach with institutional behavior.
If you’re serious about improving your trading results while saving time and effort, this tool is an essential addition to your toolkit. It provides clarity in chaotic markets, enhances precision in trade execution, and ensures you never miss critical opportunities in your trading journey.

Fibonacci Circle Zones🟩 The Fibonacci Circle Zones indicator is a technical visualization tool, building upon the concept of traditional Fibonacci circles. It provides configurable options for analyzing geometric relationships between price and time, used to identify potential support and resistance zones derived from circle-based projections. The indicator constructs these Fibonacci circles based on two user-selected anchor points (Point A and Point B), which define the foundational price range and time duration for the geometric analysis.
Key features include multiple mathematical Circle Formulas for radius scaling and several options for defining the circle's center point, enabling exploration of complex, non-linear geometric relationships between price and time distinct from traditional linear Fibonacci analysis. Available formulas incorporate various mathematical constants (π, e, φ variants, Silver Ratio) alongside traditional Fibonacci ratios, facilitating investigation into different scaling hypotheses. Furthermore, selecting the Center point relative to the A-B anchors allows these circular time-price patterns to be constructed and analyzed from different geometric perspectives. Analysis can be further tailored through detailed customization of up to 12 Fibonacci levels, including their mathematical values, colors, and visibility..
📚 THEORY and CONCEPT 📚
Fibonacci circles represent an application of Fibonacci principles within technical analysis, extending beyond typical horizontal price levels by incorporating the dimension of time. These geometric constructions traditionally use numerical proportions, often derived from the Fibonacci sequence, to project potential zones of price-time interaction, such as support or resistance. A theoretical understanding of such geometric tools involves considering several core components: the significance of the chosen geometric origin or center point , the mathematical principles governing the proportional scaling of successive radii, and the fundamental calculation considerations (like chart scale adjustments and base radius definitions) that influence the resulting geometry and ensure its accurate representation.
⨀ Circle Center ⨀
The traditional construction methodology for Fibonacci circles begins with the selection of two significant anchor points on the chart, usually representing a key price swing, such as a swing low (Point A) and a subsequent swing high (Point B), or vice versa. This defined segment establishes the primary vector—representing both the price range and the time duration of that specific market move. From these two points, a base distance or radius is derived (this calculation can vary, sometimes using the vertical price distance, the time duration, or the diagonal distance). A center point for the circles is then typically established, often at the midpoint (time and price) between points A and B, or sometimes anchored directly at point B.
Concentric circles are then projected outwards from this center point. The radii of these successive circles are calculated by multiplying the base distance by key Fibonacci ratios and other standard proportions. The underlying concept posits that markets may exhibit harmonic relationships or cyclical behavior that adheres to these proportions, suggesting these expanding geometric zones could highlight areas where future price movements might decelerate, reverse, or find equilibrium, reflecting a potential proportional resonance with the initial defining swing in both price and time.
The Fibonacci Circle Zones indicator enhances traditional Fibonacci circle construction by offering greater analytical depth and flexibility: it addresses the origin point of the circles: instead of being limited to common definitions like the midpoint or endpoint B, this indicator provides a selection of distinct center point calculations relative to the initial A-B swing. The underlying idea is that the geometric source from which harmonic projections emanate might vary depending on the market structure being analyzed. This flexibility allows for experimentation with different center points (derived algorithmically from the A, B, and midpoint coordinates), facilitating exploration of how price interacts with circular zones anchored from various perspectives within the defining swing.
Potential Center Points Setup : This view shows the anchor points A and B , defined by the user, which form the basis of the calculations. The indicator dynamically calculates various potential Center points ( C through N , and X ) based on the A-B structure, representing different geometric origins available for selection in the settings.
Point X holds particular significance as it represents the calculated midpoint (in both time and price) between A and B. This 'X' point corresponds to the default 'Auto' center setting upon initial application of the indicator and aligns with the centering logic used in TradingView's standard Fibonacci Circle tool, offering a familiar starting point.
The other potential center points allow for exploring circles originating from different geometric anchors relative to the A-B structure. While detailing the precise calculation for each is beyond the scope of this overview, they can be broadly categorized: points C through H are derived from relationships primarily within the A-B time/price range, whereas points I through N represent centers projected beyond point B, extrapolating the A-B geometry. Point J, for example, is calculated as a reflection of the A-X midpoint projected beyond B. This variety provides a rich set of options for analyzing circle patterns originating from historical, midpoint, and extrapolated future anchor perspectives.
Default Settings (Center X, FibCircle) : Using the default Center X (calculated midpoint) with the default FibCircle . Although circles begin plotting only after Point B is established, their curvature shows they are geometrically centered on X. This configuration matches the standard TradingView Fib Circle tool, providing a baseline.
Centering on Endpoint B : Using Point B, the user-defined end of the swing, as the Center . This anchors the circular projections directly to the swing's termination point. Unlike centering on the midpoint (X) or start point (A), this focuses the analysis on geometric expansion originating precisely from the conclusion of the measured A-B move.
Projected Center J : Using the projected Point J as the Center . Its position is calculated based on the A-B swing (conceptually, it represents a forward projection related to the A-X midpoint relationship) and is located chronologically beyond Point B. This type of forward projection often allows complete circles to be visualized as price develops into the corresponding time zone.
Time Symmetry Projection (Center L) : Uses the projected Point L as the Center . It is located at the price level of the start point (A), projected forward in time from B by the full duration of the A-B swing . This perspective focuses analysis on temporal symmetry , exploring geometric expansions from a point representing a full time cycle completion anchored back at the swing's origin price level.
⭕ Circle Formula
Beyond the center point , the expansion of the projected circles is determined by the selected Circle Formula . This setting provides different mathematical methods, or scaling options , for scaling the circle radii. Each option applies a distinct mathematical constant or relationship to the base radius derived from the A-B swing, allowing for exploration of various geometric proportions.
eScaled
Mathematical Basis: Scales the radius by Euler's number ( e ≈ 2.718), the base of natural logarithms. This constant appears frequently in processes involving continuous growth or decay.
Enables investigation of market geometry scaled by e , exploring relationships potentially based on natural exponential growth applied to time-price circles, potentially relevant for analyzing phases of accelerating momentum or volatility expansion.
FibCircle
Mathematical Basis: Scales the radius to align with TradingView’s built-in Fibonacci Circle Tool.
Provides a baseline circle size, potentially emulating scaling used in standard drawing tools, serving as a reference point for comparison with other options.
GoldenFib
Mathematical Basis: Scales the radius by the Golden Ratio (φ ≈ 1.618).
Explores the fundamental Golden Ratio proportion, central to Fibonacci analysis, applied directly to circular time-price geometry, potentially highlighting zones reflecting harmonic expansion or retracement patterns often associated with φ.
GoldenContour
Mathematical Basis: Scales the radius by a factor derived from Golden Ratio geometry (√(1 + φ²) / 2 ≈ 0.951). It represents a specific geometric relationship derived from φ.
Allows analysis using proportions linked to the geometry of the Golden Rectangle, scaled to produce circles very close to the initial base radius. This explores structural relationships often associated with natural balance or proportionality observed in Golden Ratio constructions.
SilverRatio
Mathematical Basis: Scales the radius by the Silver Ratio (1 + √2 ≈ 2.414). The Silver Ratio governs relationships in specific regular polygons and recursive sequences.
Allows exploration using the proportions of the Silver Ratio, offering a significant expansion factor based on another fundamental metallic mean for comparison with φ-based methods.
PhiDecay
Mathematical Basis: Scales the radius by φ raised to the power of -φ (φ⁻ᵠ ≈ 0.53). This unique exponentiation explores a less common, non-linear transformation involving φ.
Explores market geometry scaled by this specific phi-derived factor which is significantly less than 1.0, offering a distinct contractile proportion for analysis, potentially relevant for identifying zones related to consolidation phases or decaying momentum.
PhiSquared
Mathematical Basis: Scales the radius by φ squared, normalized by dividing by 3 (φ² / 3 ≈ 0.873).
Enables investigation of patterns related to the φ² relationship (a key Fibonacci extension concept), visualized at a scale just below 1.0 due to normalization. This scaling explores projections commonly associated with significant trend extension targets in linear Fibonacci analysis, adapted here for circular geometry.
PiScaled
Mathematical Basis: Scales the radius by Pi (π ≈ 3.141).
Explores direct scaling by the fundamental circle constant (π), investigating proportions inherent to circular geometry within the market's time-price structure, potentially highlighting areas related to natural market cycles, rotational symmetry, or full-cycle completions.
PlasticNumber
Mathematical Basis: Scales the radius by the Plastic Number (approx 1.3247), the third metallic mean. Like φ and the Silver Ratio, it is the solution to a specific cubic equation and relates to certain geometric forms.
Introduces another distinct fundamental mathematical constant for geometric exploration, comparing market proportions to those potentially governed by the Plastic Number.
SilverFib
Mathematical Basis: Scales the radius by the reciprocal Golden Ratio (1/φ ≈ 0.618).
Explores proportions directly related to the core 0.618 Fibonacci ratio, fundamental within Fibonacci-based geometric analysis, often significant for identifying primary retracement levels or corrective wave structures within a trend.
Unscaled
Mathematical Basis: No scaling applied.
Provides the base circle defined by points A/B and the Center setting without any additional mathematical scaling, serving as a pure geometric reference based on the A-B structure.
🧪 Advanced Calculation Settings
Two advanced settings allow further refinement of the circle calculations: matching the chart's scale and defining how the base radius is calculated from the A-B swing.
The Chart Scale setting ensures geometric accuracy by aligning circle calculations with the chart's vertical axis display. Price charts can use either a standard (linear) or logarithmic scale, where vertical distances represent price changes differently. The setting offers two options:
Standard : Select this option when the price chart's vertical axis is set to a standard linear scale.
Logarithmic : It is necessary to select this option if the price chart's vertical axis is set to a logarithmic scale. Doing so ensures the indicator adjusts its calculations to maintain correct geometric proportions relative to the visual price action on the log-scaled chart.
The Radius Calc setting determines how the fundamental base radius is derived from the A-B swing, offering two primary options:
Auto : This is the default setting and represents the traditional method for radius calculation. This method bases the radius calculation on the vertical price range of the A-B swing, focusing the geometry on the price amplitude.
Geometric : This setting provides an alternative calculation method, determining the base radius from the diagonal distance between Point A and Point B. It considers both the price change and the time duration relative to the chart's aspect ratio, defining the radius based on the overall magnitude of the A-B price-time vector.
This choice allows the resulting circle geometry to be based either purely on the swing's vertical price range ( Auto ) or on its combined price-time movement ( Geometric ).
🖼️ CHART EXAMPLES 🖼️
Default Behavior (X Center, FibCircle Formula) : This configuration uses the midpoint ( Center X) and the FibCircle scaling Formula , representing the indicator's effective default setup when 'Auto' is selected for both options initially. This is designed to match the output of the standard TradingView Fibonacci Circle drawing tool.
Center B with Unscaled Formula : This example shows the indicator applied to an uptrend with the Center set to Point B and the Circle Formula set to Unscaled . This configuration projects the defined levels (0.236, 0.382, etc.) as arcs originating directly from the swing's termination point (B) without applying any additional mathematical scaling from the formulas.
Visualization with Projected Center J : Here, circles are centered on the projected point J, calculated from the A-B structure but located forward in time from point B. Notice how using this forward-projected origin allows complete inner circles to be drawn once price action develops into that zone, providing a distinct visual representation of the expanding geometric field compared to using earlier anchor points. ( Unscaled formula used in this example).
PhiSquared Scaling from Endpoint B : The PhiSquared scaling Formula applied from the user-defined swing endpoint (Point B). Radii expand based on a normalized relationship with φ² (the square of the Golden Ratio), creating a unique geometric structure and spacing between the circle levels compared to other formulas like Unscaled or GoldenFib .
Centering on Swing Origin (Point A) : Illustrates using Point A, the user-defined start of the swing, as the circle Center . Note the significantly larger scale and wider spacing of the resulting circles. This difference occurs because centering on the swing's origin (A) typically leads to a larger base radius calculation compared to using the midpoint (X) or endpoint (B). ( Unscaled formula used).
Center Point D : Point D, dynamically calculated from the A-B swing, is used as the origin ( Center =D). It is specifically located at the price level of the swing's start point (A) occurring precisely at the time coordinate of the swing's end point (B). This offers a unique perspective, anchoring the geometric expansion to the initial price level at the exact moment the defining swing concludes. ( Unscaled formula shown).
Center Point G : Point G, also dynamically calculated from the A-B swing, is used as the origin ( Center =G). It is located at the price level of the swing's endpoint (B) occurring at the time coordinate of the start point (A). This provides the complementary perspective to Point D, anchoring the geometric expansion to the final price level achieved but originating from the moment the swing began . As observed in the example, using Point G typically results in very wide circle projections due to its position relative to the core A-B action. ( Unscaled formula shown).
Center Point I: Half-Duration Projection : Using the dynamically calculated Point I as the Center . Located at Point B's price level but projected forward in time by half the A-B swing duration , Point I's calculated time coordinate often falls outside the initially visible chart area. As the chart progresses, this origin point will appear, revealing large, sweeping arcs representing geometric expansions based on a half-cycle temporal projection from the swing's endpoint price. ( Unscaled formula shown).
Center Point M : Point M, also dynamically calculated from the A-B swing, serves as the origin ( Center =M). It combines the midpoint price level (derived from X) with a time coordinate projected forward from Point B by the full duration of the A-B swing . This perspective anchors the geometric expansion to the swing's balance price level but originates from the completion point of a full temporal cycle relative to the A-B move. Like other projected centers, using M allows for complete circles to be visualized as price progresses into its time zone. ( SilverFib formula shown).
Geometric Validation & Functionality : Comparing the indicator (red lines), using its default settings ( Center X, FibCircle Formula ), against TradingView's standard Fib Circle tool (green lines/white background). The precise alignment, particularly visible at the 1.50 and 2.00 levels shown, validates the core geometry calculation.

Point B (Time, Price) : Input fields for the exact time coordinate and price level of the swing's ending point (B).
Interactive Adjustment : Points A and B can typically be adjusted directly by clicking and dragging their markers on the chart (if 'Setup' is set to 'Show'). Changes update settings automatically.
📝 NOTES 📝
Fibonacci circles begin plotting only once the time corresponding to Point B has passed and is confirmed on the chart. While potential center locations might be visible earlier (as shown in the setup graphic), the final circle calculations require the complete geometry of the A-B swing. This approach ensures that as new price bars form, the circles are accurately rendered based on the finalized A-B relationship and the chosen center and scaling.
The indicator's calculations are anchored to user-defined start (A) and end (B) points on the chart. When switching between charts with significantly different price scales (e.g., from an index at 5,000 to a crypto asset at $0.50), it is typically necessary to adjust these anchor points to ensure the circle elements are correctly positioned and scaled.
⚠️ DISCLAIMER ⚠️
The Fibonacci Circle Zones indicator is a visual analysis tool designed to illustrate Fibonacci relationships through geometric constructions incorporating curved lines, providing a structured framework for identifying potential areas of price interaction. Like all technical and visual indicators, these visual representations may visually align with key price zones in hindsight, reflecting observed price dynamics. It is not intended as a predictive or standalone trading signal indicator.
The indicator calculates levels and projections using user-defined anchor points and Fibonacci ratios. While it aims to align with TradingView’s standard Fibonacci circle tool by employing mathematical and geometric formulas, no guarantee is made that its calculations are identical to TradingView's proprietary methods.
🧠 BEYOND THE CODE 🧠
The Fibonacci Circle Zones indicator, like other xxattaxx indicators , is designed with education and community collaboration in mind. Its open-source nature encourages exploration, experimentation, and the development of new Fibonacci and grid calculation indicators and tools. We hope this indicator serves as a framework and a starting point for future Innovation and discussions.
Multi-Timeframe Fair Value Gap (FVG)Multi-Timeframe Fair Value Gap (FVG) Indicator
Description
This indicator identifies and displays Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) across multiple timeframes simultaneously. A Fair Value Gap occurs when price moves so quickly that it leaves behind an area where no actual trading has taken place. These areas often act as magnets for price to return to later, making them valuable for traders to identify potential support and resistance zones.
Key features:
·Support for up to 6 different timeframes simultaneously
·Customizable colors for each timeframe
·Option to display middle lines within FVGs
·Automatic FVG mitigation detection (by price or wick)
·Bullish and bearish FVGs clearly distinguished
·Highly customizable appearance
The indicator uses different colors for each timeframe, allowing you to easily distinguish between short-term and long-term FVGs. This makes it an excellent tool for multi-timeframe analysis and for identifying key areas where price might react.
How to Use
Add the indicator to your chart
·Configure the timeframes you want to monitor (default: 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, Daily, Weekly)
·Customize colors for each timeframe if desired
·Choose between "Close" or "Wick" mitigation method
·Look for areas where multiple FVGs overlap - these often represent stronger zones
The indicator automatically tracks when an FVG has been filled (mitigated) and removes it from the chart. This keeps your analysis clean and focused on active, unfilled gaps that are still likely to affect price.
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
该指标可同时识别并显示多个时间周期的公允价值缺口(FVGs)。公允价值缺口发生在价格快速移动时，留下了一个没有实际交易发生的区域。这些区域通常会吸引价格稍后回归，使它们成为交易者识别潜在支撑和阻力区域的有价值工具。
主要特点：
·同时支持多达6个不同的时间周期
·每个时间周期可自定义颜色
·可选显示FVG内的中线
·自动检测FVG的填补(通过收盘价或影线)
·清晰区分看涨和看跌的FVG
·高度可定制的外观
注意：此版本为单次缓解版本，FVG只要被触碰到1次就会被缓解，不会等待fvg完全穿越才缓解
Imbalance(FVG) DetectorImbalance (FVG) Detector
Overview
The Imbalance (FVG) Detector is a technical analysis tool designed to highlight price inefficiencies by identifying Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). These gaps occur when rapid price movement leaves an area with little to no traded volume, which may later act as a zone of interest. The indicator automatically detects and marks these imbalances on the chart, allowing users to observe historical price behavior more effectively.
Key Features
- Automatic Imbalance Detection: Identifies bullish and bearish imbalances based on a structured three-bar price action model.
- Customizable Sensitivity: Users can adjust the minimum imbalance percentage threshold to tailor detection settings to different assets and market conditions.
- Real-time Visualization: Marked imbalances are displayed as colored boxes directly on the chart.
- Dynamic Box Updates: Imbalance zones extend forward in time until price interacts with them.
- Alert System: Users can set alerts for when new imbalances appear or when price tests an existing imbalance.
How It Works
The indicator identifies market imbalances using a three-bar price structure:
- Bullish Imbalance: Occurs when the high of three bars ago is lower than the low of the previous bar, forming a price gap.
- Bearish Imbalance: Occurs when the low of three bars ago is higher than the high of the previous bar, creating a downward gap.
When an imbalance is detected:
- Green Boxes indicate bullish imbalances.
- Red Boxes indicate bearish imbalances.
- Once price interacts with an imbalance, the box fades to gray, marking it as tested.
! Designed for Crypto Markets
This indicator is particularly useful in crypto markets, where frequent volatility can create price inefficiencies. It provides a structured way to visualize gaps in price movement, helping users analyze historical liquidity areas.
Customization Options
- Min Imbalance Percentage Size: Adjusts the sensitivity of the imbalance detection.
- Alerts: Users can enable alerts to stay notified of new or tested imbalances.
Important Notes
- This indicator is a technical analysis tool and does not provide trading signals or financial advice.
- It does not predict future price movement but highlights historical price inefficiencies.
- Always use this tool alongside other market analysis methods and risk management strategies.
Radi IQ [TradingIQ]Introducing "Radi IQ".
Radi IQ is a comprehensive market structure indicator designed to provide traders with a detailed view of key price levels and market behavior. It combines several analytical methods—including internal and external structure analysis, fair value gaps, order blocks, breaker blocks, rejection blocks, premium discount zones, equal levels, directional liquidity grabs, and trend meters —to help users better understand areas of support and resistance, potential turning points, and liquidity events in the market.
Key Components and Their Functions
Market Structure Analysis
Internal and External Structure : The indicator evaluates market structure on two levels. The internal analysis focuses on immediate price action (e.g., recent support/resistance and swing points), while the external analysis uses a higher timeframe to provide context. This dual approach helps to confirm the strength of key levels by comparing short-term moves with the broader market trend.
Break of Structure (BoS) and Change of Character (CHoCH) : These signals highlight moments when the market shifts its behavior. A BoS indicates that a previous level of support or resistance has been overcome, while a CHoCH signals a change in the market’s character. Both are marked clearly on the chart using distinct color codes.
Break of Structure + (BoS+) and Change of Character + (CHoCH+) : These signals highlight moments when the market shifts its behavior and is confirmed by prior price action. A BoS + indicates that a previous level of support or resistance has been overcome, while price action achieves higher highs and higher lows (resistance break) or lower highs and lower lows (support break). CHoCH + signals a change in the market’s character when supported by prior price action - lower highs for a support break and higher lows for a resistance break.
BoS and CHoCH
The image above shows BoS and CHoCH identified on the price chart, and explains what each signifies.
A Break Of Structure (BoS) occurs when price decisively moves beyond a previously established support or resistance level. It indicates that the current trend or market pattern is being challenged, and the market may be ready to change direction.
A Change of Character (CHoCH) describes a shift in how the market behaves. A CHoCH occurs when, in an uptrend, a previously established support level breaks, or in a downtrend, a previously established resistance level breaks.
This break indicates that the market's typical structure is shifting, suggesting that the current trend may be losing its strength and that a reversal or a new trend could be developing.
CHoCH+
The image above explains CHoCH+ and how it forms, while highlighting an instance where a downside CHoCH+ formed following lower highs.
A Change of Character + (CHoCH+) describes a shift in how the market behaves that is supported by prior price action. For support breaks, price must form lower highs before breaking support.
The image above explains CHoCH+ for resistance breaks, while highlighting an instance where a resistance point broke that was supported by prior price action.
BoS+
The image above explains BoS+ and how it forms, while highlighting an instance where an upside BoS+ formed following higher highs and higher lows.
A BoS+ resistance break requires higher highs and higher lows prior to the resistance point being closed over.
The image above explains BoS+ support break, while highlighting an instance where a downside BoS+ formed following lower highs and lower lows.
A BoS+ support break requires lower highs and lower lows prior to the support point being closed under.
Future BoS and CHoCH
Radi IQ also displays where the next BoS and CHoCH points are located.
The image above shows the feature in action. With this, traders will always know where the next key support/resistance breakpoints are before they actually occur.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
The indicator identifies gaps in the price where little or no trading occurred—known as fair value gaps. These gaps can act as temporary support or resistance and may indicate areas where the market is likely to correct. FVGs are displayed with clear color gradients that differentiate between upward and downward gaps.
The image above shows an identified upside FVG. In the image, the identified upside FVG acted as a support point for price.
The image above shows an identified downside FVG. In the image, the identified downside FVG acted as a resistance point for price.
Low Volume FVG
In addition to identifying trading FVGs - Radi IQ can also specifically detect low volume fair value gaps. Ideally, these fair value gaps will form inside a low volume node on a volume profile.
Low volume node FVGs are important because these are areas where very little trading occurred and is confirmable, indicating an imbalance in supply and demand. Since few trades took place there, the market often moves quickly through these zones when revisited, which can lead to rapid price changes. This "gap" in trading activity can serve as a signal for potential reversals or fast moves, offering opportunities to enter or exit positions based on expected market behavior.
The image above shows identified FVGs that formed on low volume.
Large Area FVGs
Radi IQ is also capable of filtering out “inconsequential” FVGs. With this, Radi IQ can be enabled to only mark FVGs that cover a wide price range.
The image above shows the feature enabled, and all identified FVGs formed with a wide price range.
Large Area FVGs and Low Volume FVGs Combined
Traders can also enable Radi IQ to only mark FVGs that form on low volume and have a wide price range - allowing traders to only identify the highest quality FVGs on the chart.
Order Blocks and Premium Discount Zones
Order Blocks: Radi IQ detects areas where large orders have previously been placed by institutional traders. These blocks can act as strong levels of support or resistance, and the indicator marks bullish and bearish order blocks with dedicated colors.
What is an order block?
Order blocks are clusters of orders that institutions have executed to enter or exit a market position. They typically form when there is a period of consolidation before a significant move. For example, the last bullish candle before a strong down move may indicate a supply order block, while the last bearish candle before a sharp rally might be considered a demand order block.
Why They Form:
Institutions don’t trade in small, sporadic amounts; they accumulate or distribute large volumes of an asset. To avoid slippage and minimize market impact, they execute these orders over a zone rather than at a single price point. This creates a recognizable “block” on the chart.
Order Block Identification Types
Strength Score
The “Strength Score” order block detection mode is a TradingIQ proprietary ranking system for identified order blocks.
Purpose
The purpose of the “Strength Score” ranking system is to determine the “strength” or significance of an order block and rate the zone’s likelihood to act as support/resistance when retested in the future.
The scoring system ranks from 0 - 10, with “0” indicating a “weak” score or low likelihood of acting as a key support/resistance level when retested in the future.
A rating of “5” indicates a “moderate” score, indicating that the order block has a moderate likelihood of acting as a key support/resistance level when retested in the future.
A rating of “10” indicates a “strong” score, indicating that the order block has a strong likelihood of acting as a key support/resistance level when retested in the future.
How It Works
The score is calculated by examining the price move following the formation of an order block. The stronger the price move after an order block forms - the higher the Strength Score.
The image above shows a bearish order block with a score of “5” identified on the chart. The order block successfully operates as a resistance point when retested.
The image above shows a bullish order block with a score of “5” identified on the chart. The order block successfully operates as a resistance point when retested.
Volume-Based
The volume-based order block detection method detects traditional order blocks, but goes one step further by identifying the highest concentration point of volume for the bar and drawing the order block around this concentration point.
Key features when using the volume-based order block detection method:
The top of the order block is anchored to the top of the highest volume concentration point of the bar
The bottom of the order block is anchored to the bottom of the highest volume concentration point of the bar
The total volume that went into creation of the order block is displayed on the chart
The total volume of the order block is recorded as a percentage relative to the total volume for all order blocks on the chart
The image above shows the detection method in action.
Breaker Blocks
A breaker block is a specific type of order block that gains significance when price breaks through it and then often retests the level as a new area of support or resistance. Essentially, it’s a zone where, after the initial break, the previous level (which once acted as strong support or resistance) flips roles. For example, in an uptrend, if the price falls below a key support level, that level can become a breaker block and act as resistance if the price tries to move back up. Conversely, in a downtrend, a broken resistance level can serve as new support. Traders monitor breaker blocks because they often mark a shift in market sentiment and can provide potential entry or exit points once the market re-engages with these levels.
The image above shows a breaker block above price acting as resistance.
The image above shows a breaker block below price acting as support.
Rejection Blocks
A rejection block is a price area where the market shows a strong unwillingness to move beyond a certain level. This typically happens when price approaches a specific level but then is quickly rejected, leading to a bounce in the opposite direction. In other words, a rejection block forms when traders' orders create a barrier, causing the price to reverse rather than break through. Traders watch these areas closely, as they often signal a strong concentration of supply or demand that could provide potential entry or exit points for trades.
The image above shows both a verified upside rejection block acting as resistance, and an untested downside rejection block.
Rejection blocks are expected to function as strong support/resistance points when retested in the future.
Premium Discount Zones
Premium Discount Zones : These zones reflect areas where price is trading above (premium) or below (discount) a fair value range. They help traders gauge whether the current market price is relatively high or low compared to historical averages.
Premium Discount Zones account for recent swing highs and lows to calculate a fair value along with discount and premium prices over an intermediate time window.
The image above shows the premium and discount price zones in action.
Equal Levels
The indicator also tracks and highlights equal levels, which occur when the market repeatedly tests the same price levels. Equal levels can reinforce the significance of a support or resistance area and are represented by their own set of color markers.
The image above shows Radi IQ distinguishing equal highs and equal lows.
Equal Highs
When you see two or more highs that are approximately the same, it suggests that the market is repeatedly rejecting attempts to push higher. This signals a strong resistance level where sellers (or stop-hunters) are active.
Equal Lows
Similarly, consecutive lows at the same level indicate strong support, where buyers step in consistently, preventing further decline.
Strong Highs and Lows
Strong High
A strong high is a price level where the market repeatedly fails to push higher. Typically, it’s characterized by:
Rejection: Price approaches the high but then reverses sharply, often leaving long upper wicks on the candlestick chart.
Consolidation: Multiple bars might show highs that are very close in value (often termed "equal highs"), indicating a well-established resistance zone.
Market Sentiment: This pattern suggests that sellers are actively defending that level, preventing further upward movement.
Strong Lows
Conversely, a strong low is a price level where the market repeatedly fails to break lower. It is identified by:
Bounce Back: Price touches the low and then rebounds sharply, often leaving long lower wicks.
Consistency: Multiple lows occur around the same level (sometimes referred to as "equal lows"), marking a solid support area.
Market Sentiment: This indicates that buyers are stepping in at that level, absorbing selling pressure and supporting the price.
The image above shows Radi IQ detecting both a strong high and strong low, while the detected strong low acts as support when retested.
Liquidity Grabs
Liquidity grabs occur when the market temporarily moves to absorb liquidity, often triggering stop-loss orders and leading to rapid price movements. Radi IQ flags these events by identifying conditions where price moves against recent pivots, helping traders spot potential liquidity-related reversals or breakouts.
The image above shows Radi IQ identifying both an upside liquidity grab and a downside liquidity grab.
Upside Liquidity Grab (Bearish)
An upside liquidity grab happens when the price moves above a well-known resistance area or recent high. This move is often short-lived.
Many traders place stop-loss orders or pending buy orders just above resistance levels. Institutional players may intentionally push price upward to trigger these orders, thereby “grabbing” the liquidity available at that level.
Downside Liquidity Grab (Bullish)
A downside liquidity grab is the mirror image: the price briefly dips below a key support level or recent low.
Traders often place stop-loss orders or pending sell orders just below support levels. An intentional drop below this support can trigger these stops, allowing institutional players to capture liquidity.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis and Swings
By using data from different timeframes, Radi IQ offers a broader perspective on market trends. It highlights significant swing highs and swing lows, providing visual cues that indicate the market’s directional bias. This feature assists traders in identifying both short-term opportunities and long-term trends.
The image above shows Radi IQ detecting higher swings and lower swings.
IQ Meters / Fibometer
IQ Meters (Fibometers) are a proprietary TradingIQ tool that allows traders to easily identify the highs and lows of the current trend and where current price is relative to these points.
The image above depicts the IQ Meters—an exclusive TradingIQ tool designed to help traders evaluate trend strength and retracement opportunities.
When the lower timeframe Zig Zag IQ and the higher timeframe Zig Zag IQ are out of sync (i.e., one is uptrending while the other is downtrending, with no active positions), the meters display a neutral color as shown in the image.
The key to using these meters is to identify trend unison and pinpoint key trend retracement entry opportunities. Fibonacci retracement levels for the current trend are interlaced along each meter, and the current price is converted to a retracement ratio of the trend.
These meters can mathematically determine where price stands relative to the larger and smaller trends, aiding in identifying entry opportunities.
The top of each meter indicates the highest price achieved during the current price move.
The bottom of each meter indicates the lowest price achieved during the current price move.
When both the larger and smaller trends are in sync and uptrending, or when a long position is active, the IQ meters turn green, indicating uptrend strength.
When both meters are green, it indicates uptrend strength as both the higher timeframe trend and lower timeframe trend are in unison. Look for price to retrace to key fibonacci retracement levels during this time period.
When both trends are in sync and downtrending, or when a short position is active, the IQ meters turn red, indicating downtrend strength.
When both meters are red, it indicates downtrend strength as both the higher timeframe trend and lower timeframe trend are in unison. Look for price to retrace to key fibonacci retracement levels during this time period.
Summary
Radi IQ serves as a robust, data-driven tool for traders who seek a deeper understanding of market structure. By integrating internal and external analysis, fair value gap detection, order block identification, premium discount zoning, equal level tracking, liquidity grabs and much more into one indicator, it offers a multi-layered view of the market. This helps traders not only recognize potential turning points and areas of market stress but also manage risk more effectively and plan their trades with greater precision. The indicator’s clear visual representation and dynamic updates make it a practical addition to any trader’s toolkit.
