No Supply / No Demand Candle AlertsNo Supply Candle: A No Supply candle generally has a large body (close near high) with low volume. So, you would likely want the body percentage to be high, meaning the price action is concentrated near the high of the candle.
No Demand Candle: A No Demand candle generally has a large body (close near low) with low volume. You would want a high body percentage but with the close near low.

[TehThomas] - Fair Value GapsThis script is designed to automatically detect and visualize Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on your chart in a clean, intuitive, and highly responsive way. It’s built with active traders in mind, offering both dynamic updates and customization options that help you stay focused on price action without being distracted by outdated or irrelevant information.
What Are Fair Value Gaps?
Fair Value Gaps are areas on a chart where there’s an inefficiency in price, typically formed when price moves aggressively in one direction, leaving a gap between the wicks of consecutive candles. These gaps represent imbalanced price action where not all buy or sell orders were efficiently matched. As a result, they often become magnet zones where price returns later to "fill" the imbalance before continuing in its intended direction. Many traders use them as points of interest for entries, re-entries, or anticipating reversals and consolidations.
This concept is frequently used in Smart Money and ICT-based trading models, where understanding how price seeks efficiency is crucial to anticipating future moves. When combined with concepts like liquidity, displacement, and market structure, FVGs become powerful tools for technical decision-making.
Script Features & Functionality
1. Live Updating Gaps (Dynamic Shrinking)
One of the core features of this script is its ability to track and dynamically shrink Fair Value Gaps as price trades into them. Instead of leaving a static zone on your chart, the gap will adjust in real-time, reflecting the portion that has been filled. This gives you a much more accurate picture of remaining imbalance and avoids misleading zones.
2. Automatic Cleanup After Fill
Once price fully fills an FVG, the script automatically removes it from the chart. This helps keep your workspace clean and focused only on relevant price zones. There’s no need to manually manage your gaps, everything is handled behind the scenes to reduce clutter and distraction.
3. Static Mode Option
While dynamic updating is the default, some traders may prefer to keep the original size of the gap visible even after partial fills. For that reason, the script includes a toggle to switch from live-updating (shrinking) mode to static mode. In static mode, FVGs stay fixed from the moment they are drawn, giving you a more traditional visual reference point.
4. Multi-Timeframe Support (MTF)
You can now view higher timeframe FVGs, such as those from the 1H or 4H chart, while analyzing lower timeframes like the 5-minute. This allows you to see key imbalances from broader market context without having to flip between charts. FVGs from higher timeframes will be drawn distinctly so you can differentiate them at a glance.
5. Cleaner Visualization
The script is designed with clarity in mind. All drawings are streamlined, and filled gaps are removed to maintain a minimal, distraction-free chart. This makes it easier to combine this tool with other indicators or price-action-based strategies without overloading your workspace.
6. Suitable for All Market Types
This script can be used on any asset that displays candlestick-based price action — including crypto, forex, indices, and stocks. Whether you're scalping low-timeframe setups or swing trading with a higher timeframe bias, FVGs remain a useful concept and this script adapts to your trading style.
Use Case Examples
On a 5-minute chart, display 1-hour FVGs to catch major imbalance zones during intraday trading.
Combine the FVGs with liquidity levels and inducement patterns to build ICT-style trade setups.
Use live-updating gaps to monitor in-progress fills and evaluate whether a zone still holds validity.
Set the script to static mode to perform backtesting or visual replay with historical setups.
Final Notes
Fair Value Gaps are not a standalone trading signal, but when used with market structure, liquidity, displacement, and order flow concepts, they provide high-probability trade locations that align with institutional-style trading models. This script simplifies the visualization of those zones so you can react faster, stay focused on clean setups, and eliminate unnecessary distractions.
Whether you’re trading high volatility breakouts or patiently waiting for retracements into unfilled imbalances, this tool is designed to support your edge with precision and flexibility.
Cointegration Heatmap & Spread Table [EdgeTerminal]The Cointegration Heatmap is a powerful visual and quantitative tool designed to uncover deep, statistically meaningful relationships between assets.
Unlike traditional indicators that react to price movement, this tool analyzes the underlying statistical relationship between two time series and tracks when they diverge from their long-term equilibrium — offering actionable signals for mean-reversion trades .
What Is Cointegration?
Most traders are familiar with correlation, which measures how two assets move together in the short term. But correlation is shallow — it doesn’t imply a stable or predictable relationship over time.
Cointegration, however, is a deeper statistical concept: Two assets are cointegrated if a linear combination of their prices or returns is stationary , even if the individual series themselves are non-stationary.
Cointegration is a foundational concept in time series analysis, widely used by hedge funds, proprietary trading firms, and quantitative researchers. This indicator brings that institutional-grade concept into an easy-to-use and fully visual TradingView indicator.
This tool helps answer key questions like:
“Which stocks tend to move in sync over the long term?”
“When are two assets diverging beyond statistical norms?”
“Is now the right time to short one and long the other?”
Using a combination of regression analysis, residual modeling, and Z-score evaluation, this indicator surfaces opportunities where price relationships are stretched and likely to snap back — making it ideal for building low-risk, high-probability trade setups.
In simple terms:
Cointegrated assets drift apart temporarily, but always come back together over time. This behavior is the foundation of successful pairs trading.
How the Indicator Works
Cointegration Heatmap indicator works across any market supported on TradingView — from stocks and ETFs to cryptocurrencies and forex pairs.
You enter your list of symbols, choose a timeframe, and the indicator updates every bar with live cointegration scores, spread signals, and trade-ready insights.
Indicator Settings:
Symbol list: a customizable list of symbols separated by commas
Returns timeframe: time frame selection for return sampling (Weekly or Monthly)
Max periods: max periods to limit the data to a certain time and to control indicator performance
This indicator accomplishes three major goals in one streamlined package:
Identifies stable long-term relationships (cointegration) between assets, using a heatmap visualization.
Tracks the spread — the difference between actual prices and the predicted linear relationship — between each pair.
Generates trade signals based on Z-score deviations from the mean spread, helping traders know when a pair is statistically overextended and likely to mean revert.
The math:
Returns are calculated using spread tickers to ensure alignment in time and adjust for dividends, splits, and other inconsistencies.
For each unique pair of symbols, we perform a linear regression
Yt=α+βXt+ε
Then we compute the residuals (errors from the regression):
Spreadt=Yt−(α+βXt)
Calculate the standard deviation of the spread over a moving window (default: 100 samples) and finally, define the Cointegration Score:
S=1/Standard Deviation of Residuals
This means, the lower the deviation, the tighter the relationship, so higher scores indicate stronger cointegration.
Always remember that cointegration can break down so monitor the asset over time and over multiple different timeframes before making a decision.
How to use the indicator
The heatmap table:
The indicator displays 2 very important tables, one in the middle and one on the right side. After entering your symbols, the first table to pay attention to is the middle heatmap table.
Any assets with a cointegration value of 25% is something to pay attention to and have a strong and stable relationship. Anything below is weak and not tradable.
Additionally, the 40% level is another important line to cross. Assets that have a cointegration score of over 40% will most likely have an extremely strong relationship.
Think about it this way, the higher the percentage, the tighter and more statistically reliable the relationship is.
The spread table:
After finding a good asset pair using heatmap, locate the same pair in the spread table (right side).
Here’s what you’ll see on the table:
Spread: Current difference between the two symbols based on the regression fit
Mean: Historical average of that spread
Z-score: How far current spread is from the mean in standard deviations
Signal: Trade suggestion: Short, Long, or Neutral
Since you’re expecting mean reversion, the idea is that the spread will return to the average. You want to take a trade when the z-score is either over +2 or below -2 and exit when z-score returns to near 0.
You will usually see the trade suggestion on the spread chart but you can make your own decision based on your risk level.
Keep in mind that the Z-score for each pair refers to how off the first asset is from the mean compared to the second one, so for example if you see STOCKA vs STOCKB with a Z-score of -1.55, we are regressing STOCKB (Y) on STOCKA (X).
In this case, STOCKB is the quoted asset and STOCKA is the base asset.
In this case, this means that STOCKB is much lower than expected relative to STOCKA, so the trade would be a long position on stock B and short position on stock A.
Support & Resistance ZonesAdvanced Support & Resistance Detection Algorithm
This indicator identifies meaningful price levels by analyzing market structure using a proprietary statistical approach. Unlike traditional methods that rely on simple swing highs/lows or moving averages, this system dynamically detects zones where price has shown consistent interaction, revealing true areas of supply and demand.
Core Methodology
Price Data Aggregation
Collects highs and lows over a configurable lookback period.
Normalizes price data to account for volatility, ensuring levels remain relevant across different market conditions.
Statistical Significance Filtering
Rejection of random noise: Eliminates insignificant price fluctuations using adaptive thresholds.
Volume-weighted analysis (implied): Stronger reactions at certain price levels are given higher priority, even if volume data is unavailable.
Dynamic Level Extraction
Density-based S/R Zones: Instead of fixed swing points, the algorithm identifies zones where price has repeatedly consolidated.
Time decay adjustment: Recent price action has more influence, ensuring levels adapt to evolving market structure.
Strength Quantification
Each level is assigned a confidence score based on:
Touch frequency: How often price revisited the zone.
Reaction intensity: The magnitude of bounces/rejections.
Time relevance: Whether the level remains active or has been broken decisively.
Adaptive Level Merging & Pruning
Proximity-based merging: If two levels are too close (within a volatility-adjusted threshold), they combine into one stronger zone.
Decay mechanism: Old, untested levels fade away if price no longer respects them.
Why This Approach Works Better Than Traditional Methods
✅ No subjective drawing required – Levels are generated mathematically, removing human bias.
✅ Self-adjusting sensitivity – Works equally well on slow and fast-moving markets.
✅ Focuses on statistically meaningful zones – Avoids false signals from random noise.
✅ Non-repainting & real-time – Levels only update when new data confirms their validity.
How Traders Can Use These Levels
Support/Resistance Trading: Fade bounces off strong levels or trade breakouts with confirmation.
Confluence with Other Indicators: Combine with RSI, MACD, or volume profiles for higher-probability entries.
Stop Placement: Place stops just beyond key levels to avoid premature exits.
Technical Notes (For Advanced Users)
The algorithm avoids overfitting by dynamically adjusting zones sensitivity based on market conditions.
Unlike fixed pivot points, these levels adapt to trends, making them useful in both ranging and trending markets.
The strength percentage helps filter out weak levels—only trade those with a high score for better accuracy.
Note: Script takes some time to load.
Liquidity stop huntThis tool identifies key liquidity zones where stop hunts are likely to occur.
**How it works:**
- Detects swing highs/lows on your selected timeframe.
- Marks levels where "liquidity sweeps" (fakeouts) often happen.
- Plots these zones as dotted lines for visual reference.
**How to use:**
1. Look for price rejections near marked levels.
2. Avoid placing stops too close to obvious liquidity zones.
3. Combine with price action for confirmation.
**Settings:**
- Timeframe: Choose the historical period for analysis (e.g., 1D, 1W).
- Sweep Type: "Wick Only" for precise tails, "Regular" for all breaks.
- Colors/Style: Customize appearance.
Note: Works best in trending markets. Not a standalone strategy — always confirm with additional analysis.
Weekly ManipulationUnderstanding the "Weekly Manipulation" Indicator
The "Weekly Manipulation" indicator is a powerful tool designed to identify false breakouts in the market—moments. Let me explain how it works in simple terms.
What This Indicator Detects
This indicator spots two specific market behaviors that often indicate manipulation:
1. Single-Day Manipulation (Red/Green Labels)
This occurs when price briefly breaks through a significant daily level but fails to maintain the momentum:
Bearish Manipulation (Red): Price pushes above the previous day's high, but then reverses and closes below that high.
Bullish Manipulation (Green): Price drops below the previous day's low), but then reverses and closes above that low.
2. Two-Day Manipulation (Black Labels)
This is a more complex version of the same pattern, but occurring over a 2-day period. These signals can indicate even stronger manipulation attempts and potentially more powerful reversals.
Why This Matters for Your Trading
By identifying these patterns, you can:
- Avoid getting caught in false breakouts
- Find potential entry points after the manipulation is complete
- Understand when market action might not be genuine price discovery
How to Use This Indicator
1. Look for Red Markers: These appear when price has attempted to break higher but failed. This often suggests bearish potential going forward.
2. Look for Green Markers: These appear when price has attempted to break lower but failed. This often suggests bullish potential going forward.
3. Pay Attention to Black Markers: These 2-day patterns can signal stronger reversals and might be worth giving extra weight in your analysis.
The indicator labels these patterns clearly as "Manipulation" right on your chart, giving you an immediate visual cue when these potential setups occur.
Minervini Trend Template (EMA)📄 Description:
This script is inspired by Mark Minervini’s SEPA (Specific Entry Point Analysis) strategy and adapts his famous Trend Template using Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs). It helps traders visually identify technically strong stocks that are in ideal buy conditions based on Minervini's rules.
📈 Strategy Logic:
This script scans for momentum breakouts by filtering stocks with the following characteristics:
✅ Buy Criteria (All Conditions Must Be Met):
Price above 50-day EMA
Price above 150-day EMA
Price above 200-day EMA
50-day EMA above 150-day EMA
150-day EMA above 200-day EMA
200-day EMA trending upward (greater than it was 20 days ago)
Price within 25% of its 52-week high
Price at least 30% above its 52-week low
If all 8 conditions are satisfied, the script triggers a SEPA Setup Signal. This is visually indicated by:
✅ A green background on the chart
✅ A label saying “SEPA Setup” under the bar
🛒 When to Buy:
Wait for the stock to break out above a recent base or consolidation pattern (like a cup-with-handle or flat base) on strong volume.
The ideal entry is within 5% of the breakout point.
Confirm that the SEPA conditions are met on the breakout day.
📉 When to Sell:
Place a stop-loss 5–8% below your entry price.
Exit if the breakout fails and price falls back below the pivot or the 50-day EMA.
Take partial profits after a 20–25% gain, and move your stop-loss up to breakeven or trail it using moving averages like the 21 or 50 EMA.
Exit fully if price closes below the 50-day or 150-day EMA on volume.
🧠 Why EMAs?
EMAs react faster to recent price action than SMAs, helping you catch earlier signals in fast-moving markets. This makes it especially useful for growth and momentum traders following Minervini’s high-performance approach.
📊 How to Use:
Apply the script to any stock chart (daily timeframe recommended).
Look for a green background + SEPA Setup label.
Combine with price/volume analysis, base patterns, and market context to time your entries.
🚨 Optional Alerts:
You can set an alert on the condition minerviniPass == true to notify you when a SEPA-compliant setup appears.
📚 This tool is meant for educational and research purposes. Always validate with your own due diligence and consult your risk plan before making any trades.
Candle Eraser (New York Time, Dropdown)If you want to focus on first 3 hours of Asia, London> and New York, inspired by Stacey Burke Trading 12 Candle Window Concept
- Set your time to UTC-4 New York
PnF ChartPoint and Figure (P&F) charts are a time-independent technical analysis tool that focuses purely on price movements, filtering out noise like minor price fluctuations and time. Unlike candlestick or bar charts, P&F charts ignore time and only record significant price changes based on predefined rules.
Key Characteristics of P&F Charts
No Time Axis
Only price movements matter; time is irrelevant.
Columns form based on reversals, not fixed time periods.
Uses X's and O's
X = Rising prices (demand in control)
O = Falling prices (supply in control)
Box Size (Price Increment)
Defines the minimum price change required to plot a new X or O.
Example: If the box size is **1∗∗,astockmustmoveatleast1∗∗,astockmustmoveatleast1 to record a new X or O.
Reversal Amount
Determines how much the price must reverse to switch from X's to O's (or vice versa).
Common reversal settings: 3-box reversal (price must reverse by 3x the box size).
How P&F Charts Work
1. Rising Prices (X-Columns)
A new X is added if the price rises by the box size.
If the price reverses down by the reversal amount, a new O-column starts.
2. Falling Prices (O-Columns)
A new O is added if the price falls by the box size.
If the price reverses up by the reversal amount, a new X-column starts.
Example of a P&F Chart
Suppose:
Box Size = $1
Reversal Amount = 3-box (i.e., $3)
Price Movement Chart Update
Stock rises from 10→10→11 X at $11
Rises to $12 X at $12
Drops to 9(9(12 → 9=9=3 drop) New O-column starts at 11,11,10, $9
Rises again to 12(12(9 → 12=12=3 rise) New X-column at 10,10,11, $12
About the Script:This Script uses columns instead of traditional X and O boxes.Column Printing (Red vs Green)
This Point and Figure chart alternates between two states:
X columns (green): Represent upward price movements
O columns (red): Represent downward price movements
When Green Columns (X) Are Printed:
A green column is printed when:
The script is in "X mode" (is_x is true)
A new column is created (new_column_created is true)
This happens after the price has reversed upward by at least the "reversal boxes" threshold from a previous O column
When Red Columns (O) Are Printed:
A red column is printed when:
The script is in "O mode" (is_x is false)
A new column is created (new_column_created is true)
This happens after the price has reversed downward by at least the "reversal boxes" threshold from a previous X column
How Trendlines Are Created
The script can draw two types of trendlines when the show_trendlines option is enabled:
Green Trendlines (Uptrend):
A green trendline is created when:
There's a transition from O to X columns (cond2 is true but wasn't true on the previous bar)
This represents the beginning of a potential uptrend
The trendline is solid and extends to the right
Red Trendlines (Downtrend):
A red trendline is created when:
There's a transition from X to O columns (cond1 is true but wasn't true on the previous bar)
This represents the beginning of a potential downtrend
The trendline is dashed and extends to the right
The script maintains two trendline objects - current_trendline and previous_trendline - and deletes the oldest one when a new trendline is created to prevent cluttering the chart.
In summary, this Point and Figure chart tracks price movements in discrete boxes and changes column types (and creates trendlines) when price reverses by a significant amount (defined by the reversal_boxes parameter). The chart also generates alerts when these trend changes occur, helping traders identify potential trend reversals.
SMC Strategy BTC 1H - OB/FVGGeneral Context
This strategy is based on Smart Money Concepts (SMC), in particular:
The bullish Break of Structure (BOS), indicating a possible reversal or continuation of an upward trend.
The detection of Order Blocks (OB): consolidation zones preceding the BOS where the "smart money" has likely accumulated positions.
The detection of Fair Value Gaps (FVG), also called imbalance zones where the price has "jumped" a level, creating a disequilibrium between buyers and sellers.
Strategy Mechanics
Bullish Break of Structure (BOS)
A bullish BOS is detected when the price breaks a previous swing high.
A swing high is defined as a local peak higher than the previous 4 peaks.
Order Block (OB)
A bearish candle (close < open) just before a bullish BOS is identified as an OB.
This OB is recorded with its high and low.
An "active" OB zone is maintained for a certain number of bars (the zoneTimeout parameter).
Fair Value Gap (FVG)
A bullish FVG is detected if the high of the candle two bars ago is lower than the low of the current candle.
This FVG zone is also recorded and remains active for zoneTimeout bars.
Long Entry
An entry is possible if the price returns into the active OB zone or FVG zone (depending on which parameters are enabled).
Entry is only allowed if no position is currently open (strategy.position_size == 0).
Risk Management
The stop loss is placed below the OB low, with a buffer based on a multiple of the ATR (Average True Range), adjustable via the atrFactor parameter.
The take profit is set according to an adjustable Risk/Reward ratio (rrRatio) relative to the stop loss to entry distance.
Adjustable Parameters
Enable/disable entries based on OB and/or FVG.
ATR multiplier for stop loss.
Risk/Reward ratio for take profit.
Duration of OB and FVG zone activation.
Visualization
The script displays:
BOS (Break of Structure) with a green label above the candles.
OB zones (in orange) and FVG zones (in light blue).
Entry signals (green triangle below the candle).
Stop loss (red line) and take profit (green line).
Strengths and Limitations
Strengths:
Based on solid Smart Money analysis concepts.
OB and FVG zones are natural potential reversal areas.
Adjustable parameters allow optimization for different market conditions.
Dynamic risk management via ATR.
Limitations:
Only takes long positions.
No trend filter (e.g., EMA), which may lead to false signals in sideways markets.
Fixed zone duration may not fit all situations.
No automatic optimization; testing with different parameters is necessary.
Summary
This strategy aims to capitalize on price retracements into key zones where "smart money" has acted (OB and FVG) just after a bullish Break of Structure (BOS) signal. It is simple, customizable, and can serve as a foundation for a more comprehensive strategy.
EMA Retest Signal Indicator (Indicator)EMA Retest Signal Indicator (Strict + Loose)
Overview:
This indicator is designed for active traders who want to identify high-probability retraction (pullback) opportunities within confirmed EMA trends. It highlights two categories of signal candles—strict and loose—based on how price interacts with fast and slow EMAs, giving you clear, visually-coded signals for both trend continuation and optimal entries.
How It Works
EMA Trend Confirmation:
The script uses a fast EMA (default 13) and a slow EMA (default 48). Trend confirmation occurs only after a user-defined number of candles have closed beyond an EMA crossover, filtering out false or premature trend shifts.
Strict Retraction Signals:
These appear when a retraction candle pulls back and tests both the fast and slow EMAs before resuming in the direction of the main trend. These are typically higher-confidence signals.
Loose Retraction Signals:
Designed to catch “shallower” or more flexible pullbacks. These signal when the candle either:
Touches only the fast EMA (but stays above/below slow EMA), or
Comes within a configurable maximum number of ticks from the slow EMA (but does not need to touch either EMA).
Blue diamonds indicate fast EMA tests; yellow diamonds indicate pure distance-based signals.
Chop Filter:
The script automatically suppresses signals if it detects the trend has shifted more than once within a configurable recent bar window (default: last 10 candles). This helps you avoid signals during choppy or sideways markets.
Trading Window Highlighting:
Optionally highlights your preferred trading hours on the chart background for visual clarity.
Inputs & Settings
Fast EMA & Slow EMA lengths
Number of bars to confirm trend after EMA crossover
Toggle for displaying strict/loose retraction signals
Maximum allowed tick distance for loose signals (yellow diamonds)
“Chop filter” (bars to look back for trend shifts)
Optional: show/hide trend background highlights
Visual Signals
Green triangle up: Strict long entry candidate
Red triangle down: Strict short entry candidate
Blue diamond: Loose retraction signal, tested fast EMA
Yellow diamond: Loose retraction signal, within max distance from slow EMA
Who Is This For?
Day traders and scalpers seeking precise pullback entries in strong trends
Algo/system traders wanting robust, visually intuitive signal logic
Anyone who wants an advanced, trend-following indicator for futures, forex, crypto, or equities
Usage Tips
Use in combination with your risk management and other confirmation tools.
Tune the “max loose ticks” and trend confirmation bars for your preferred market/volatility.
Strict retractions are usually higher confidence; loose can help catch moves that don’t quite reach the EMAs.
Note: This indicator is not financial advice and should be tested in a demo or backtest environment before live use.
Opening Range Retest█ OVERVIEW
This indicator shows the opening range as a box. It also draws markers and triggers alerts when the opening range is retested. The opening range time is configurable, as is the period of time that must elapse before each return to the opening range is considered a retest.
█ FEATURES
Opening range time configurable in bars or minutes
Configurable "resting" period between the end of the opening range or since the last retest before a new retest is considered valid
Configurable tolerance so that a retest can trigger sooner
Active time range can be used to filter alerts and markers to a specific time window
Visual box showing the opening range, which can be optionally limited to the above-mentioned active time window
Well-documented, high-quality, open-source code for those interested
█ CONCEPTS
This indicator can be used for an opening range retest trading strategy, where long or short positions are taken on the retest of the opening range.
The opening range can be user-configured, so it is suitable for use with any opening range time period (e.g., 1-min, 5-min, 15-min, etc.).
The markers and alerts are equivalent, in the sense that whenever a marker appears, an alert will also trigger (assuming the user has set an alert up).
The alert active time range is simply used as a filter for markers and alerts, meaning that these will not draw or trigger outside of the specified time range.
█ LIMITATIONS
The indicator is intended for equities that have a highly active regular market open. For other security types, it will draw the opening range box from whenever TradingView specifies the market open time.
TBR(3AM, 9AM, 3PM)How It Works
• Monitors 3 key institutional hours: 3AM (London Open), 9AM (New York Open), and 3PM (US Close)
• Captures the full range (high and low) of each 1H candle at those times
• Confirms breakout only if the next 1H candle closes above or below the range
• Draws the zone (box) aligned with the original hourly candle (not delayed)
• Displays retracement lines at:
- 25% (initial reaction)
- 50% (mitigation level)
- 75% (deep retracement entry)
Key Features
• Precise zone alignment — Boxes are anchored to the actual breakout candle
• Mitigation logic — Zones are considered mitigated once price revisits the 0.5 level
• Expiry filter — Zones automatically remove after 7 days
• Time zone support — Choose from major time zones or fixed UTC offsets (e.g., Etc/GMT+4)
• Multi-timeframe compatible — Works on all timeframes (1m, 5m, 15m, etc.)
• Clean structure — No duplicated boxes on lower timeframes
• Fully customizable colors and visibility toggles
Settings
• Toggle visibility for 3AM / 9AM / 3PM zones independently
• Choose time zone (supports America/New_York, UTC, Asia/Tokyo, etc.)
• Adjust how long zones stay visible (in hours)
• Enable/disable auto-removal after mitigation
Ideal For
• ICT traders
• Smart money concepts (SMC)
• Zone-based entries and liquidity grabs
• Traders using mitigation and premium/discount retracement logic
Tip
• Use this script with liquidity/volume indicators or SMT divergence for even stronger confluence.
Inside Bar (Body-based) Ind/AlertDescription:
This indicator detects Inside Bar patterns based strictly on the candle body (open/close range) of the mother candle, rather than the traditional high/low wick method. An inside bar is highlighted when the current candle’s entire body is contained within the body of the previous candle.
It can be useful for traders who want a more conservative and reliable definition of inside bars, focusing on true consolidation periods and filtering out signals caused by extended wicks.
Features:
Body-based Inside Bar detection:
The indicator colors and marks candles where the current bar’s body is fully within the previous bar’s body.
Bullish/Bearish identification:
Bullish inside bars are marked in green, bearish in red.
Double Inside Bar Detection:
An optional feature marks when two consecutive candles’ bodies are inside the same mother bar body—potentially indicating stronger consolidation.
Alerts:
Set alerts for single or double inside bars for automated monitoring.
How to Use:
Add the indicator to your chart.
Look for colored bars or plotted shapes for inside bar signals based on candle bodies.
Use alerts to get notified in real time when inside bar patterns appear.
Note:
This script uses only the candle body (open and close) for inside bar calculations, which may help filter out less reliable signals found with wick-based approaches.
%MAThis indicator is designed to plot a Simple Moving Average (SMA) along with customizable upper and lower bands (% up/down) on a TradingView chart. Here's a brief but thorough explanation of its functionality:
TL;DR: This script shows percentages above and below customizable moving average timeframes & legnths. It's unique in the sense that it isn't on a separate pane & gives visual clarity against the price in real time HLOC.
1. Main SMA Plot
The script calculates a Simple Moving Average (SMA) based on user-defined inputs:
Timeframe: E.g., daily ("Daily") by default.
Length: E.g., 50 periods by default.
Color: Customizable by the user.
This SMA acts as the central reference line and can be toggled on or off using a "Show" option.
2. Upper and Lower Bands
The script generates two upper bands and two lower bands around the main SMA.
Each band is derived from an SMA (calculated similarly to the main SMA) and offset by a percentage:
Upper Bands: SMA × (1 + distance percentage / 100), e.g., SMA × 1.05 for a 5% offset.
Lower Bands: SMA × (1 - distance percentage / 100), e.g., SMA × 0.95 for a 5% offset.
These bands can indicate potential support, resistance, or volatility ranges.
3. Customization
Users can independently configure:
Visibility: Toggle each band and the main SMA on or off.
Timeframe: Set the timeframe for each SMA calculation.
Length: Define the SMA period.
Distance Percentage: Adjust the offset for each band.
Color: Choose colors for all plotted lines.
This flexibility allows tailored analysis for different trading strategies or timeframes.
4. Plotting
The main SMA and each band are plotted using TradingView’s plot function, but only if their respective "Show" options are enabled.
Lines are displayed with user-specified colors and styles (e.g., the main SMA has a linewidth of 2).
Purpose
This script provides a versatile tool for technical analysis, enabling traders to visualize an SMA with percentage-based bands to identify key price levels or ranges, such as support/resistance, volatility zones, and trends, with extensive customization options.
Enigma Sniper 369The "Enigma Sniper 369" is a custom-built Pine Script indicator designed for TradingView, tailored specifically for forex traders seeking high-probability entries during high-volatility market sessions.
Unlike generic trend-following or scalping tools, this indicator uniquely combines session-based "kill zones" (London and US sessions), momentum-based candle analysis, and an optional EMA trend filter to pinpoint liquidity grabs and reversal opportunities.
Its originality lies in its focus on liquidity hunting—identifying levels where stop losses are likely clustered (around swing highs/lows and wick midpoints)—and providing visual entry zones that are dynamically removed once price breaches them, reducing clutter and focusing on actionable signals.
The name "369" reflects the structured approach of three key components (session timing, candle logic, and trend filter) working in harmony to snipe precise entries.
What It Does
"Enigma Sniper 369" identifies potential buy and sell opportunities by drawing two types of horizontal lines on the chart during user-defined London and US
session kill zones:
Solid Lines: Mark the swing low (for buys) or swing high (for sells) of a trigger candle, indicating a potential entry point where stop losses might be clustered.
Dotted Lines: Mark the 50% level of the candle’s wick (lower wick for buys, upper wick for sells), serving as a secondary confirmation zone for entries or tighter stop-loss placement.
These lines are plotted only when specific candle conditions are met within the kill zones, and they are automatically deleted once the price crosses them, signaling that the liquidity at that level has likely been grabbed. The indicator also includes an optional EMA filter to ensure trades align with the broader trend, reducing false signals in choppy markets.
How It Works
The indicator’s logic is built on a multi-layered approach:
Kill Zone Timing: Trades are only considered during user-defined London and US session hours (e.g., London from 02:00 to 12:00 UTC, as seen in the screenshots). These sessions are known for high volatility and liquidity, making them ideal for capturing institutional moves.
Candle-Based Momentum Logic:
Buy Signal: A candle must close above its midpoint (indicating bullish momentum) and have a lower low than the previous candle (suggesting a potential liquidity grab below the previous swing low). This is expressed as close > (high + low) / 2 and low < low .
Sell Signal: A candle must close below its midpoint (bearish momentum) and have a higher high than the previous candle (indicating a potential liquidity grab above the previous swing high), expressed as close < (high + low) / 2 and high > high .
These conditions ensure the indicator targets candles that break recent structure to hunt stop losses while showing directional momentum.
Optional EMA Filter: A 50-period EMA (customizable) can be enabled to filter signals based on trend direction.
Buy signals are only generated if the EMA is trending upward (ema_value > ema_value ), and sell signals require a downward EMA trend (ema_value < ema_value ). This reduces noise by aligning entries with the broader market trend.
Liquidity Levels and Deletion Logic:
For a buy signal, a solid green line is drawn at the candle’s low, and a dotted green line at the 50% level of the lower wick (from the candle body’s bottom to the low).
For a sell signal, a solid red line is drawn at the candle’s high, and a dotted red line at the 50% level of the upper wick (from the body’s top to the high).
These lines extend to the right until the price crosses them, at which point they are deleted, indicating the liquidity at that level has been taken (e.g., stop losses triggered).
Alerts: The indicator includes alert conditions for buy and sell signals, notifying traders when a new setup is identified.
Underlying Concepts
The indicator is grounded in the concept of liquidity hunting, a strategy often employed by institutional traders. Markets frequently move to levels where stop losses are clustered—typically just beyond swing highs or lows—before reversing in the opposite direction. The "Enigma Sniper 369" targets these moves by identifying candles that break structure (e.g., a lower low or higher high) during high-volatility sessions, suggesting a potential sweep of stop losses. The 50% wick level acts as a secondary confirmation, as this midpoint often represents a zone where tighter stop losses are placed by retail traders. The optional EMA filter adds a trend-following element, ensuring entries are taken in the direction of the broader market momentum, which is particularly useful on lower timeframes like the 15-minute chart shown in the screenshots.
How to Use It
Here’s a step-by-step guide based on the provided usage example on the GBP/USD 15-minute chart:
Setup the Indicator: Add "Enigma Sniper 369" to your TradingView chart. Adjust the London and US session hours to match your timezone (e.g., London from 02:00 to 12:00 UTC, US from 13:00 to 22:00 UTC). Customize the EMA period (default 50) and line styles/colors if desired.
Identify Kill Zones: The indicator highlights the London session in light green and the US session in light purple, as seen in the screenshots. Focus on these periods for signals, as they are the most volatile and likely to produce liquidity grabs.
Wait for a Signal: Look for solid and dotted lines to appear during the kill zones:
Buy Setup: A solid green line at the swing low and a dotted green line at the 50% lower wick level indicate a potential buy. This suggests the market may have grabbed liquidity below the swing low and is now poised to move higher.
Sell Setup: A solid red line at the swing high and a dotted red line at the 50% upper wick level indicate a potential sell, suggesting liquidity was taken above the swing high.
Place Your Trade:
For a buy, set a buy limit order at the dotted green line (50% wick level), as this is a more conservative entry point. Place your stop loss just below the solid green line (swing low) to cover the full swing. For example, in the screenshots, the market retraces to the dotted line at 1.32980 after a liquidity grab below the swing low, triggering a buy limit order.
For a sell, set a sell limit order at the dotted red line, with a stop loss just above the solid red line.
Monitor Price Action: Once the price crosses a line, it is deleted, indicating the liquidity at that level has been taken. In the screenshots, after the buy limit is triggered, the market moves higher, confirming the setup. The caption notes, “The market returns and tags us in long with a buy limit,” highlighting this retracement strategy.
Additional Context: Use the indicator to identify liquidity levels that may be targeted later. For example, the screenshot notes, “If a new session is about to open I will wait for the grab liquidity to go long,” showing how the indicator can be used to anticipate future moves at session opens (e.g., London open at 1.32980).
Risk Management: Always set a stop loss below the swing low (for buys) or above the swing high (for sells) to protect against adverse moves. The 50% wick level helps tighten entries, improving the risk-reward ratio.
Practical Example
On the GBP/USD 15-minute chart, during the London session (02:00 UTC), the indicator identifies a buy setup with a solid green line at 1.32901 (swing low) and a dotted green line at 1.32980 (50% wick level). The market initially dips below the swing low, grabbing liquidity, then retraces to the dotted line, triggering a buy limit order. The price subsequently rises to 1.33404, yielding a profitable trade. The user notes, “The logic is in the last candle it provides new level to go long,” emphasizing the indicator’s ability to identify fresh levels after a liquidity sweep.
Customization Tips
Adjust the EMA period to suit your timeframe (e.g., a shorter period like 20 for faster signals on lower timeframes).
Modify the session hours to align with your broker’s timezone or specific market conditions.
Use the alert feature to get notified of new setups without constantly monitoring the chart.
Why It’s Useful for Traders
The "Enigma Sniper 369" stands out by combining session timing, momentum-based candle analysis, and liquidity hunting into a single tool. It provides clear, actionable levels for entries and stop losses, removes invalid signals dynamically, and aligns trades with high-probability market conditions. Whether you’re a scalper looking for quick moves during London open or a swing trader targeting session-based reversals, this indicator offers a structured, data-driven approach to trading.
ICT HTF Candles [Pro] (fadi)The ICT HTF Candles shows you multi-timeframe price action by plotting up to six higher timeframe candles on your chart, scaled to real price levels. Set candle counts per timeframe or toggle them off for a clean view, saving you time switching between charts. This helps you spot trends and reversals quickly, align trades with the market’s direction, and time setups like sweeps or bounces better. From scalping on the 1m to swinging on the 4H, it simplifies ICT and Smart Money Concepts (SMC), revealing trend shifts and institutional moves clearly. Once you use it, trading without this clarity just won’t feel right.
Key Features:
In-Depth Price Action Levels
These levels track ICT PD arrays and confluences across timeframes, making it easy to see how price action flows from higher timeframes and what your setup faces. Is your 5m trade about to run into a 1H bearish order block? Did it bounce off a higher timeframe FVG and create an SMT with a correlated asset? They make your chart a clear roadmap to market structure, helping you find strong setups, save time, and align with institutional moves:
Change in State of Delivery (CISD): In ICT trading, CISD marks potential reversal levels on each timeframe by showing the open of the highest series of up (green) candles for a bullish shift or the open of the lowest series of down (red) candles for a bearish shift. These levels are set at the opening price of the first candle in those runs, highlighting where the market turns. The indicator makes these levels easy to spot across timeframes, so you can track reversal points clearly. You can set your own confirmation criteria—a close or wick above/below the CISD line (bearish/bullish) or a close or wick above/below the high/low—to verify the CISD level cross. When confirmed, there is a high probability that we have a change in trend, and a reversal order block forms. CISD helps you track these reversal levels and confirm market shifts, making multi-timeframe analysis straightforward.
Order Blocks: When a CISD level cross is confirmed, the price is now below a series of up (green) candles or above a series of down (red) candles, marking these candles as order blocks that usually support the new trend direction. The indicator shows these levels clearly across timeframes, making it easy to spot high-probability reversal or consolidation areas. Keep in mind that price may sometimes move to mitigate an imbalance, so use your best judgment based on your multi-timeframe analysis to confirm they meet your trading criteria.
Trend Bias: Traders often struggle figuring out market bias—guessing the trend wrong, losing on trades against the flow, or missing how lower and higher timeframes line up. The Trend Bias feature tracks order blocks and change in state of delivery, displaying bullish or bearish trends for each timeframe to help you choose trades that go with the market’s direction. The indicator shows these trends clearly across timeframes, so you can quickly see if the 5m matches the 1H or if you’re going against the bigger trend. This makes it easier to avoid bad trades and make decisions faster, keeping you on track with setups that follow the main trend.
Immediate Rebalance: When looking at price action, you’ll see the market doesn’t usually leave behind many Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). That’s because the market is efficient and always rebalancing any inefficiencies. When the market starts a strong move, the last candle will usually close above the previous candle high (for up moves) or below the low (for down moves). At this point, the market will do one of two things: immediately rebalance by retracing first, or have a small retracement but leave behind an FVG. The Immediate Rebalance feature tracks rebalance levels across multiple timeframes, clearly showing where price rebalances. This helps traders have a better expectation of how the market may need to retrace and anticipate Power of Three (PO3) setups by being ready for a Judas swing to rebalance the imbalance.
Fair Value Gaps and Volume Imbalances: If the market fails to immediately rebalance, it will usually attempt to come back and rebalance it at a later time. FVGs and VIs give you a clear area where the price might be heading if it starts breaking structure on lower timeframes. These inefficiencies—price gaps (FVGs) or aggressive moves (VIs)—show where the market’s working to fix imbalances. The Fair Value Gaps and Volume Imbalances feature tracks these levels across timeframes.
Previous Candle Levels: The Previous Candle Levels feature marks the high, low, and middle of the prior candle on each timeframe, helping you identify key price levels for sweeps, bounces, or breakouts. It tracks the candle’s high and low as its extremes and the middle as the 50% mark, which you can set to calculate using the high-to-low range or the open-to-close range. These levels can provide tradable setups on lower timeframes.
Smart Money Techniques (SMT): What’s an ICT indicator without an SMT feature to track cracks in correlated assets? The ICT HTF Candles monitors your chosen correlated assets, like EUR/USD and GBP/USD or SQ and NQ, for signs of strength or weakness to use as confluence with other features and build the case for A+ setups. The SMT feature spots divergences when one asset makes a higher high or lower low while the other doesn’t follow, hinting at potential reversals or market shifts. It tests SMT using two immediate candles, since higher timeframes (HTFs) create larger gaps on lower timeframes. Traders can easily see these divergence levels, like a 15m SMT lining up with a 1H order block or CISD, helping you confirm high-probability setups and strengthen trade entries with multi-timeframe confluence.
Supertrade's RVI Long-Only Strategy with SL/TP (RR 1:3)This strategy, titled "Supertrade’s RVI Long-Only Strategy with SL/TP (RR 1:3)", is designed to capitalize on potential bullish reversals using the Relative Vigor Index (RVI) as its core signal generator. It is best optimized for trading XAUUSD on the 15-minute timeframe , where it has demonstrated favorable historical performance.
The RVI is calculated using a 10-period standard deviation of the closing price, with smoothing applied through a 14-period exponential moving average. This approach helps to distinguish between uptrend and downtrend volatility, allowing the strategy to identify momentum shifts with precision. A long position is triggered when the RVI crosses above the 20 level, suggesting a potential transition from a weak to a stronger bullish phase.
Risk management is embedded through a user-defined stop-loss (default set at 1% below the entry price) and a fixed reward-to-risk ratio of 1:3. This means that for every 1% of capital risked, the strategy targets a 3% gain, maintaining favorable risk-reward dynamics throughout its execution. Once a position is entered, it will exit automatically at either the stop-loss or take-profit level, depending on which is reached first.
This strategy is meant for educational and research purposes only. While it has performed well historically on specific assets and timeframes, past performance is not indicative of future results . Market conditions can change, and no strategy guarantees success in all environments. Please exercise proper risk management and test thoroughly before applying in live markets.
IU Three Line Strike Candlestick PatternIU Three Line Strike Candlestick Pattern
This indicator identifies the Three Line Strike candlestick pattern — a rare yet powerful 4-bar reversal setup that captures exhaustion and momentum shifts at the end of strong trends.
Pattern Logic:
The Three Line Strike is a 4-candle pattern that typically signals a sharp reversal after a sustained directional move. This script detects both bullish and bearish variations using strict criteria to ensure accuracy.
Bullish Three Line Strike:
* Previous three candles must be bearish (red)
* Each of these candles must close progressively lower (indicating a strong downtrend)
* The current candle must:
* Be bullish (green)
* Open below the prior close
* Completely engulf the previous three candles by closing above the first candle's open
* And make a higher high than the last 3 bars — confirming a strong reversal
* Once confirmed, a green shaded box is drawn around the 4-bar zone to highlight the pattern
Bearish Three Line Strike:
* Previous three candles must be bullish (green)
* Each must close progressively higher (indicating a strong uptrend)
* The current candle must:
* Be bearish (red)
* Open above the prior close
* Completely engulf the prior three candles by closing below the first candle's open
* And make a lower low than the last 3 bars — confirming downside strength
* A red shaded box is plotted around the 4-bar formation to emphasize the reversal zone
Why this is unique:
Most candlestick tools focus on 1–2 bar patterns. The Three Line Strike goes a step further by combining trend exhaustion (3 same-colored candles) with a full reversal engulfing candle. This pattern is both rare and highly expressive of sentiment shift, making it a standout signal for discretionary and algorithmic traders alike.
How users can benefit:
* High-probability setups: Filters out weak signals using multi-bar confirmation logic
* Clear visual cues: Dynamic shaded boxes and labels make spotting reversals effortless
* Cross-timeframe compatible: Works on intraday and higher timeframes across all markets
* Real-time alerts: Get notified instantly when a bullish or bearish setup forms
This indicator is a valuable addition for traders who want to capture key reversals backed by strong multi-bar price action logic. Whether you are a price action purist or a pattern-based strategist, the IU Three Line Strike gives you a reliable edge.

🎯 PURPOSE OF USAGE
The primary goal of the "AQPRO Pattern Map" is to equip traders with a highly efficient way of identifying significant candlestick patterns across different timeframes, making the decision-making process stronger in a sense of both quality and quantity of presented information.
Specifically, this indicator addresses the following needs:
Automation of pattern detection.
Nobody likes searching for patterns on the chart "by hand", because it takes too much time and mental energy. With this screener you can forget about this problem: automatic scanning for 27 of the most commonly used patterns will save your tens, if not hundreds of hours of time, so you can focus on what really matters;
Multi-timeframe (MTF) analysis.
This one is one of the most unique features of this indicator, because after conducting product research in library of open-source scripts alike this screener, almost none of reviewed indicators had MTF analysis feature embedded in them. This feature is important for the simplest of reasons: you see candlestick data from other timeframes without jumping from one timeframe to another . Needless to say how much time it will save for traders over the years of trading. See description below to learn more on exact functionality of our MTF analysis;
Risk management automation.
Humans tend to overestimate risk, when matters are about earning money from "financially-dangerous" activities and trading is no exception. To help traders better understand what they risk, we implemented a simple, yet effective way of displaying levels of risk for each pattern. For each new pattern on the chart you will be able see automatic creation of Take-Profit (TP) and Stop-Loss (SL) levels. It involves creation and displaying of lines and labels, representing each level at its exact coordinates. This elevates visual perception of risk for fellow traders and avoid excessive risk in many cases;
Simplicity in data visualization.
Charts, which are cluttered with pointless visual noise, presented as 'additional confirmation analysis', don't foster insights and are not worth a dime . We understand this issue very well and we designed our indicator with the solution to this problem in mind. Every bit of information, that you will see on your chart, will make sense both technically and visually — no more wasting time cleaning mess on your charts.
By addressing the needs, described above, this indicator will be a useful tool for any trader, who employs principles of candlestick pattern analysis, because most important pains of this kind of analysis are efficiently handled by our indicator.

"Bearish Pattern" — defines the color for bearish patterns.
"Neutral Pattern" — specify the color for neutral patterns like Doji.
"Frame Width" — adjusts the thickness of frames highlighting detected patterns on the chart.
📈 APPLICATION GUIDE
The way of application of this indicator is pretty straightforward, because trading methodologies based on candlestick patterns were developed decades ago and haven't changed much since then. However, we find it necessary to explain the most essential ways of application in this section.
Let's start with the basics — how you will your chart look when you load the indicator for the first time:
By default we have 5 main visual data "blocks":
Bullish patterns;
Bearish patterns;
Risk visualization;
Main Dashboard;
MTF Screener.
Let's review each of these groups one by one.
BULLISH & BEARISH PATTERNS
Patterns are displayed as up/down labels, which are styled in corresponding to trend colours. Each patterns has its own unique emoji to help traders easily navigate between patterns.
Also by default each pattern has its custom frame, inside of which resides candle (or multiple candles) of the pattern iself. These frames are made with purpose to show each pattern in a very clear way on the chart, because huge number of public scripts usually only show simple label of such patterns and don't highlight the pattern itself on the chart. To remove frames you can set "Frame Width" parameter to 0 in 'Visual Settings' group in the settings.
You can see the examples of frame on the screenshot below:
RISK VISUALIZATION (TP & SL)
Displaying Take-Profits and Stop-Losses in our indicator on the chart works quite simple: for each new trade indicator creates new pairs of lines and labels for TP and SL, while lines & labels from previous trade are erased for aesthetics purposes. Each label shows price coordinates, so that each trader would be able to grap the numbers in seconds.
See the visual showcase of TP & SL visualization on the screenshot below:
Also, whenever TP or SL of the current trade is reached, drawing of both TP and SL stops . When the TP is reached, additional '✅' emoji on the TP price is shown as confirmation of Take-Profit.
However, while TP or SL has not been reached, TP&SL labels and lines will be prolonged until one of them will be reached or new signals will come.
See the visual showcase of TP & SL stopping being visualized & TP on the screenshot below:
MAIN DASHBOARD
Main dashboard is displayed in the top right corner of the chart and it shows the data of latest pattern, that occurred on the current asset and current timeframe: pattern's name, TP, SL and trade status. Depending on bullishness or bearishness of the pattern, dashboard is colour in respective colour.
Also on the right of side TP and SL data block there is a so called trade status. It is basically an indication of wether or not latest pattern's trade is still active or not:
If TP or SL of the pattern have not been reached yet, trade is considered active and is marked with '⏳' emoji;
If TP or SL of the pattern have already been reached, trade is considered inactive and is marked with '✋' emoji.
See the visual showcase of dashboard on the screenshot below:
MTF Screener
MTF Screener is displayed right below the main dashboard and its has distinctive 'MTF Patterns' header row on the top, painted in gray colour to make sure that every traders understand he is looking at.
This screener shows the timeframe and name of patterns from four other timeframes, which trader can customize in the settings to his liking. This will help trader get more insights on global sentiment of other timeframes, which improves trading results overall if applied correctly.
In the future MTF Screener will be expanded to have more data in it, like TP and SL, age of pattern and etc.
See the visual showcase of the MTF Screener on the screenshot below:
Features, explained above, make this indicator quite versatile and suitable for incorporation in any trading strategy, which uses candlestick patterns. They are simple, yet insightful, and traders, which use similar strategies everyday, will truly appreciate the benefits of this indicator when they will set up this indicator for the first time on their chart.
🔔 ALERTS
This indicator employs alerts for an event when new pattern occurs. While creating the alert below 'Condition' field choose 'any alert() function call' .
When this alert is triggered, it will generate this kind of message:
string msg_template = "EXCHANGE:ASSET, TIMEFRAME: BULLISH_OR_BEARISH pattern PATTERN_NAME was found."
string msg_example = "BINANCE:BTCUSDT, 15m: bullish pattern 'Hammer' was found."
📌 NOTES
This indicator is most effective when used in combination with other technical analysis tools such as trendlines, moving averages, support/resistance levels or any other indicator-type tool. We strongly recommend using this indicator as confirmation indicator for your main trading strategy, not as primary source of signals;
If you want to trade directly by these patterns, make sure to use proper risk management techniques of your own and use TP&SL visualization on the chart to always have a clue about your current position;
If you lost track of visual components on the chart, look at the main dashboard to see text summary of data from latest pattern. Also don't forget to look at MTF Screener to have more context about MTF sentiment, because it is increases your understandings of MTF price trend and improves your decision-making process.
🏁 AFTERWORD
AQPRO Pattern Map was built to help traders automate candlestick pattern searching routine, improve chart readability and enhance perception of current potential risks, which may come from trading from a specific pattern. Indicator's main dashboard and MTF screener eliminate the need for constantly checking other timeframe for global sentiment, helping traders save even more time and fostering improved decision making.
This indicator will work in great conjunction with any other trading strategy as confirmation tool for entry decision. Using this indicator as primary source of signals is not recommended due to unstable nature of trading patterns.

Gold ValuationGold Value Index
The Gold Value Index (GVI) is a macro-driven oscillator that estimates the relative value of gold based on real-time movements in the US Dollar Index (DXY) and the 10-Year US Treasury Yield (US10Y). It helps traders contextualize gold’s price within broader macroeconomic pressure — identifying when gold may be over- or undervalued relative to these key drivers.
How It Works – Macro Inputs:
DXY (US Dollar Index): Typically moves inversely to gold. A rising dollar suggests downward pressure on gold value.
US10Y Yield: Higher yields increase the opportunity cost of holding gold, often leading to weaker gold prices.
Both inputs are Z-score normalized and inverted to reflect their typical negative correlation with gold. When combined, they form a single, scaled index from 0 (undervalued) to 100 (overvalued).
Why Use This Tool?
Gold reacts to macro forces as much as technical ones. The GVI blends these inputs into a clear, visual gauge to:
Anticipate mean-reversion setups.
Avoid emotionally-driven trades in extreme macro conditions.
Enhance timing by understanding gold's macro context.
Important Notes:
Data sources include ICEUS:DXY and TVC:US10Y via TradingView.

**Usage:**
Combine these pivot signals with other technical analysis tools or indicators for optimal results.
Prev Day High/Low - RTH OnlyThis indicator displays the previous day’s Regular Trading Hours (RTH) high and low levels on your chart, but only during the next day’s RTH session — keeping your charts clean while highlighting the most relevant price zones.
🔧 Features:
RTH Timing: 09:30 to 16:00 (New York time)
Auto-Detection: Automatically tracks the high and low of each RTH session
Next-Day Visibility: Lines are only shown during the following day’s RTH session
Minimal Chart Clutter: Levels disappear after the session ends, keeping focus on what's relevant
Clear Labels: Optional “Prev High” and “Prev Low” markers at market open
📊 Use Case:
Perfect for intraday and 0DTE options traders who rely on prior session key levels for:
Breakout trades
Reversal setups
Support/resistance confluence
These levels are often respected by institutions and algo flows, making them highly actionable when approached in the next RTH session.
🧠 Why This Matters:
Many traders overpopulate their charts with persistent support/resistance lines. This script keeps only what’s essential — the previous day’s RTH range — and only when it matters most: the following day’s active market hours.
