NQ/MNQ Futures Delta+ with Price Action EntriesNQ/MNQ Futures Delta+ with Price Action Entries
Description: This TradingView indicator combines Futures Delta analysis with advanced price action techniques to provide an enhanced trading strategy for the NQ/MNQ futures market. The script analyzes the market using a variety of methods including Delta, volume analysis, and candlestick patterns, while also incorporating price action factors like support/resistance levels and breakouts to offer more refined buy and sell signals.
Key Features:
Delta Analysis:
The Delta calculation tracks the difference between buying and selling pressure within each market bar. The indicator calculates delta based on different modes (Classic, Volume Based, Tick Based), and then applies cumulative delta for trend analysis.
The Cumulative Delta is calculated using one of the three available modes:
Total: Tracks the cumulative delta over time.
Periodic: Measures delta over a defined period (user-configurable).
EMA: Applies an Exponential Moving Average to smooth the delta values.
Volume Confirmation:
The script includes volume analysis to confirm price movements. A volume spike is used to validate buy/sell signals, ensuring that price movements are supported by significant trading volume.
Price Action-Based Entries:
Support and Resistance: Dynamic support and resistance levels are calculated based on the lowest low and highest high of the last 20 bars. These levels are used to identify breakout points, providing context for potential buy/sell entries.
Candlestick Patterns: The script recognizes Bullish Engulfing and Bearish Engulfing candlestick patterns. These patterns signal potential reversals in price direction and are used to confirm trade entries.
Breakout Logic: Buy signals are triggered when the price breaks above resistance, and sell signals are triggered when the price breaks below support, providing high-probability entry points during trend reversals or continuations.
Moving Average Trend Confirmation:
The script uses two moving averages:
9-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA): Short-term trend indicator.
21-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA): Longer-term trend indicator.
Trades are only considered in the direction of the prevailing trend:
A bullish signal is confirmed if the price is above both EMAs.
A bearish signal is confirmed if the price is below both EMAs.
Buy/Sell Signal Triggers:
Buy Signal: A buy signal is triggered when:
A bullish divergence is confirmed with volume support.
A bullish engulfing candlestick pattern forms.
The price breaks above resistance.
The price is above both the 9 EMA and 21 EMA, indicating an uptrend.
Sell Signal: A sell signal is triggered when:
A bearish divergence is confirmed with volume support.
A bearish engulfing candlestick pattern forms.
The price breaks below support.
The price is below both the 9 EMA and 21 EMA, indicating a downtrend.
Visualization:
Delta Candles: The cumulative delta is plotted as a candlestick on the chart, with green and red coloring to show buying or selling dominance.
Support and Resistance Levels: Support and resistance zones are plotted to show key levels where price action may react.
Moving Averages: The 9 EMA and 21 EMA are plotted to show short-term and long-term trend direction.
Signal Markers: Buy and sell signals are marked on the chart with green triangles (buy) and red triangles (sell) for easy visualization of trade opportunities.
Alerts:
Alerts can be set up for buy and sell signals, enabling you to be notified when the script identifies potential trade opportunities based on Delta analysis, volume confirmation, and price action.
How to Use This Script:
Market: This script is optimized for NQ and MNQ futures contracts but can be adapted for other markets as well.
Signal Interpretation: Use the buy and sell signals for trend-following or counter-trend trades. These signals are particularly useful for 1-minute or 5-minute charts but can be adjusted to fit other timeframes.
Support/Resistance: Pay close attention to the dynamic support and resistance levels, as these are key price action points where significant price movements can occur.
Trend Confirmation: Ensure that trades are aligned with the overall trend confirmed by the 9 EMA and 21 EMA. The script prioritizes signals that align with the broader market trend.
Breakouts: Use the breakout logic to catch price moves when the market breaks key support or resistance levels. These can often lead to strong moves in the direction of the breakout.
Educational
Days Live CounterThis quite simply tracks how many days an asset has been on Trading View for.
The indicator calculates the day count based on the timestamp of the first visible bar in your current chart view. Since monthly charts generally load data from further back in time than daily or intraday charts, they'll show a larger day count.
This isn't a bug in the indicator - it's correctly counting the days from the first bar it can see in each timeframe.
Tetris with Auto-PlayThis indicator is implemented in Pine Script™ v6 and serves as a demonstration of TradingView's capabilities. The core concept is to simulate a classic Tetris game by creating a grid-based environment and managing game state entirely within Pine Script.
Key Technical Aspects:
Grid Representation:
The script defines a custom grid structure using a user-defined type that holds the grid’s dimensions and a one-dimensional array to simulate a two-dimensional board. This structure is used to track occupied cells, clear full rows, and determine stack height.
Piece Management:
A second custom type is used to represent the state of a tetromino piece, including its type, rotation, and position. The code includes functions to calculate the block offsets for each tetromino based on its rotation state.
Collision Detection and Piece Locking:
Dedicated functions check for collisions against the grid borders and existing blocks. When a collision is detected during a downward move, the piece is locked into the grid, and any complete lines are cleared.
AIgo-Driven Placement:
The script incorporates a simple heuristic to determine the best placement for the next tetromino. It simulates different rotations and horizontal positions, evaluating each based on aggregated column height, cleared lines, holes, and bumpiness. This decision-making process is encapsulated in an AI-like function that returns the optimal rotation and placement.
Rendering Using Tables:
The visual representation is managed via TradingView’s table objects. The game board is rendered with a bordered layout, while a separate preview table displays the next piece and the current score. Each cell is updated with text and background colors that correspond to the state of the game.
Execution Flow and Timing:
The main execution loop handles real-time updates by dropping pieces at set intervals and checking for game-over conditions. The code leverages persistent variables and time comparisons to control game speed and manage transitions between piece drops.
Executing:
Add the indicator to the chart
It starts playing itself till game over
There are no parameters to change in this version but the grid in the code directly
p.s. Sadly we have no interactive buttons in the current pinescript versions to play ourself, but its about the possibilitys what we could do ;-)
Maybe in a future version there is more possible, if i find time to enhance and expand the idea
Have fun :-)

DISCLAIMER
This indicator is not financial advice, it can only help traders make better decisions. There are many factors and uncertainties that can affect the outcome of any endeavor, and no one can guarantee or predict with certainty what will occur. Therefore, one should always exercise caution and judgment when making decisions based on past performance.
Financial Conditions Indicator (FCI)The Financial Conditions Indicator (FCI) is a composite tool designed to help traders evaluate the tightness or looseness of financial conditions in the U.S. market. It aggregates four key metrics—VIX (stock market volatility), high-yield bond spreads (proxied by HYG), corporate bond spreads (proxied by LQD), and Treasury market volatility (proxied by MOVE)—into a single Z-score-based index. This indicator provides a visual representation of market stress and can assist in analyzing potential economic and asset price trends.
Key Features:
Composite Z-Score: Combines standardized Z-scores of VIX, HYG, LQD, and MOVE into a unified measure of financial conditions.
Color-Coded Output: Plots in red when conditions are tight (Z-score > 0) and green when conditions are loose (Z-score < 0).
10-Day EMA Overlay: Includes a 10-day exponential moving average (EMA) of the composite Z-score to highlight short-term trends.
Customizable Parameters: Allows users to adjust the Z-score lookback period and EMA length for flexibility.
How to Use:
Add to Chart: Find "Financial Conditions Indicator (FCI)" in the Indicators menu and apply it to your chart.
Customize Settings (Optional):
Lookback Period (Days) : Sets the period for Z-score calculations (default: 160 days).
EMA Length (Days) : Adjusts the EMA period (default: 10 days).
Interpret the Results:
Red Line (Z-Score > 0): Indicates tight financial conditions, often tied to higher volatility and wider credit spreads.
Green Line (Z-Score < 0): Suggests loose conditions, typically associated with lower volatility and tighter spreads.
Yellow Line (10-Day EMA): Tracks the short-term direction of financial conditions; crossovers with the Z-score may signal shifts.
Applications:
Monitor market stress levels to anticipate volatility or asset price movements.
Use as a risk management tool for adjusting exposure in risk-on/risk-off strategies.
Analyze potential economic turning points based on financial condition trends.
Data Dependency: Requires at least 160 days of historical data (or the selected lookback period) for accurate Z-score computation.
U.S.-Centric Design: Tailored to U.S. financial markets; applicability to other regions may vary.
Supplementary Tool: Best used with other analysis methods, not as a standalone trading signal.
Example Scenarios:
Tight Conditions (Red Plot) : A rising FCI above 0 might warn of increasing market stress, potentially signaling a pullback in equities or a spike in volatility. Traders could reduce risk exposure.
Loose Conditions (Green Plot) : A falling FCI below 0 may indicate favorable conditions for risk assets, suggesting opportunities to increase equity or high-yield exposure.
EMA Signals : A Z-score crossing above the EMA could hint at worsening conditions, while a cross below might suggest improvement.
Note : This indicator is provided for informational purposes only and does not offer financial advice. Users should perform their own analysis and consider multiple factors before trading.
Z-Score Normalized Volatility IndicesVolatility is one of the most important measures in financial markets, reflecting the extent of variation in asset prices over time. It is commonly viewed as a risk indicator, with higher volatility signifying greater uncertainty and potential for price swings, which can affect investment decisions. Understanding volatility and its dynamics is crucial for risk management and forecasting in both traditional and alternative asset classes.
Z-Score Normalization in Volatility Analysis
The Z-score is a statistical tool that quantifies how many standard deviations a given data point is from the mean of the dataset. It is calculated as:
Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}
Where X is the value of the data point, \mu is the mean of the dataset, and \sigma is the standard deviation of the dataset. In the context of volatility indices, the Z-score allows for the normalization of these values, enabling their comparison regardless of the original scale. This is particularly useful when analyzing volatility across multiple assets or asset classes.
This script utilizes the Z-score to normalize various volatility indices:
1. VIX (CBOE Volatility Index): A widely used indicator that measures the implied volatility of S&P 500 options. It is considered a barometer of market fear and uncertainty (Whaley, 2000).
2. VIX3M: Represents the 3-month implied volatility of the S&P 500 options, providing insight into medium-term volatility expectations.
3. VIX9D: The implied volatility for a 9-day S&P 500 options contract, which reflects short-term volatility expectations.
4. VVIX: The volatility of the VIX itself, which measures the uncertainty in the expectations of future volatility.
5. VXN: The Nasdaq-100 volatility index, representing implied volatility in the Nasdaq-100 options.
6. RVX: The Russell 2000 volatility index, tracking the implied volatility of options on the Russell 2000 Index.
7. VXD: Volatility for the Dow Jones Industrial Average.
8. MOVE: The implied volatility index for U.S. Treasury bonds, offering insight into expectations for interest rate volatility.
9. BVIX: Volatility of Bitcoin options, a useful indicator for understanding the risk in the cryptocurrency market.
10. GVZ: Volatility index for gold futures, reflecting the risk perception of gold prices.
11. OVX: Measures implied volatility for crude oil futures.
Volatility Clustering and Z-Score
The concept of volatility clustering—where high volatility tends to be followed by more high volatility—is well documented in financial literature. This phenomenon is fundamental in volatility modeling and highlights the persistence of periods of heightened market uncertainty (Bollerslev, 1986).
Moreover, studies by Andersen et al. (2012) explore how implied volatility indices, like the VIX, serve as predictors for future realized volatility, underlining the relationship between expected volatility and actual market behavior. The Z-score normalization process helps in making volatility data comparable across different asset classes, enabling more effective decision-making in volatility-based strategies.
Applications in Trading and Risk Management
By using Z-score normalization, traders can more easily assess deviations from the mean in volatility, helping to identify periods when volatility is unusually high or low. This can be used to adjust risk exposure or to implement volatility-based trading strategies, such as mean reversion strategies. Research suggests that volatility mean-reversion is a reliable pattern that can be exploited for profit (Christensen & Prabhala, 1998).

2013-2025 EclipsesIndicator Description: 2013-2025 Eclipses
This Pine Script (version 5) indicator overlays solar and lunar eclipse events on a TradingView chart, covering the period from 2013 to 2025. It is designed for traders and astrology enthusiasts who wish to visualize these significant astronomical events alongside price action, potentially identifying correlations with market movements or key turning points.
Features:
Eclipses:
Visualization: Displayed as a semi-transparent aqua background highlight across the chart.
Data: Includes 48 specific eclipse dates (both solar and lunar) from April 25, 2013, to September 21, 2025.
Purpose: Highlights dates of eclipses, which are often considered powerful astrological events associated with sudden changes, revelations, or significant shifts in energy and market sentiment.
Technical Details:
Overlay: The indicator is set to overlay=true, ensuring it displays directly on the price chart rather than in a separate pane.
Date Matching: Utilizes a helper function is_date(y, m, d) to determine if the current chart date matches any of the predefined eclipse dates, using TradingView's year, month, and dayofmonth variables.
Visualization Method:
bgcolor: Applies a light aqua background (using color.new(color.aqua, 85)) on the specific dates of eclipses. The transparency level of 85 allows price action to remain visible through the highlight.
Time Range: Spans from April 2013 to September 2025, covering a 12+ year period of eclipse events.
Usage:
Add the script to your TradingView chart to see eclipse dates highlighted with an aqua background on your chosen symbol and timeframe.
The background highlight appears only on the exact dates of eclipses, making it easy to spot these events amidst price data.
Ideal for those incorporating astrological analysis into trading or studying the potential impact of eclipses on financial markets.
Notes:
The script uses a single-line definition for eclipse_dates to ensure compatibility with Pine Script v5 syntax and avoid line continuation errors.
The aqua color matches the original circle-based visualization, with transparency adjustable via the color.new(color.aqua, 85) parameter (0 = fully opaque, 100 = fully transparent).
Works best on daily or higher timeframes for clear visibility of individual eclipse dates, though it functions on any TradingView-supported timeframe.
Eclipse dates should be cross-checked with astronomical sources for critical applications, as the script relies on the provided data accuracy.
Purpose:
This indicator provides a straightforward way to track eclipses over a 12-year period, offering a visual representation of these potent celestial events. By using a background highlight instead of markers, it maintains chart clarity while emphasizing the specific days when eclipses occur, potentially aiding in the analysis of their influence on market behavior or personal trading strategies.

Risk-On vs Risk-Off Meter (Pro)Risk-On vs Risk-Off Meter (Pro)
This macro-based tool analyzes capital flows across key assets to gauge overall market risk sentiment. It does not use ES, SPY, or stock data directly—making it a powerful confirmation tool for ES traders looking to align with macro forces.
🔹 Core Idea:
Tracks capital rotation between copper/gold, bonds, dollar, crude oil, VIX, and yield spreads to generate a normalized risk score (0–1). This score reflects whether macro money is flowing into risk or safety.
🔹 Use:
Use this indicator as confirmation of directional bias when scalping or day trading ES.
– Green Zone (>0.75): Risk-On environment. Favor long setups.
– Red Zone (<0.45): Risk-Off. Favor short setups or stand aside.
– Yellow Zone: Neutral, use caution.
– Divergence Alerts: Signals when ES price disagrees with macro risk trend—potential reversals or exhaustion zones.
HOT TO USE
– Combine with your existing price action or order flow signals
– Avoid trading against the macro sentiment unless strong setup
– Use divergence as a heads-up for fading or exiting trades
This gives you a macro-informed lens to validate or filter your entries.
Momentum Charge Theory (MCT)-(TechnoBlooms)The Momentum Charge Theory (MCT) Indicator is an advanced physics and mathematics-inspired trend detection system designed to identify market energy shifts with precision. Unlike traditional indicators that rely on static formulas, MCT integrates entropy, volatility, kinetic energy, and wavelet transforms to map price dynamics in real time.
Built on Scientific Principles – This indicator applies quantum-inspired charge-discharge mechanics to spot early trend formations and reversals. Think of price action like an energy system: it charges (builds momentum) before an explosive move and discharges when that energy dissipates.
Core Concepts Behind MCT
1️⃣ Directional Market Entropy – Measuring Trend Strength
Entropy quantifies market randomness – is the trend structured or chaotic?
✅ A high-entropy market is uncertain (choppy price action), while a low-entropy market signals a strong directional trend.
✅ MCT normalizes entropy, allowing traders to differentiate trend acceleration from market noise.
2️⃣ Information Flow Volatility – Identifying Breakout Zones
Inspired by Econophysics, this component measures volatility based on information flow rather than simple price movements.
✅ Helps spot high-volatility breakout conditions before they occur.
✅ Filters out false breakouts caused by random market noise.
3️⃣ Kinetic Energy Momentum (KEM) – The Physics of Price Acceleration
Just like in physics, momentum is a function of mass and velocity – in trading, this translates to volume and price change.
✅ Uses kinetic energy equations to identify price acceleration zones.
✅ Helps detect momentum shifts before price visibly reacts.
4️⃣ Hilbert Transform Approximation – Slope & Trend Direction Analysis
Applies Hilbert Transforms to estimate trend angle shifts.
✅ Detects momentum decay and early reversal signals.
✅ Captures the true trend slope rather than relying on lagging moving averages.
5️⃣ Wavelet Transform – Advanced Noise Filtering & Trend Confirmation
Market movements contain multiple frequencies – wavelet transforms isolate dominant trends while removing short-term price noise.
✅ Improves trend clarity by reducing false signals.
✅ Acts as a final confirmation filter before generating Charge & Discharge signals.
Charge & Discharge – The Energy Behind Market Moves
🔹 Charge (Uptrend Activation)
A blue triangle appears below the candle when market conditions align for a strong bullish move.
📈 Indicates momentum buildup, low entropy, and trend strength confirmation.
🔸 Discharge (Downtrend Activation)
A purple triangle appears above the candle when price momentum weakens and market entropy increases.
📉 Suggests a potential trend exhaustion or reversal.
Best Use Cases for Traders
✅ Momentum Traders – Catch trend initiations before they gain full traction.
✅ Breakout Traders – Identify high-information flow zones with volatility-driven signals.
✅ Trend Followers – Avoid false signals by relying on entropy-driven confirmations.
The MCT indicator can be combined with any of your usual indicators for trend confirmation.
Inner Circle Toolkit [TakingProphets]Inner Circle Toolkit — A Complete ICT Trading Companion
The Inner Circle Toolkit is a closed-source, all-in-one trading tool designed for traders following ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and Smart Money Concepts strategies. Every part of this script is built with purpose — not just a mashup of indicators, but a structured framework to help you follow price through the lens of institutional behavior and liquidity theory.
Let’s walk through what it does and how it can help you:
🕒 Session Liquidity Levels (Asia, London, New York, NY Lunch)
The indicator automatically marks the highs and lows of the major trading sessions:
-Asian Session
-London Session
-New York AM Session
-New York Lunch
These levels are important because price often returns to these points to grab liquidity before making a move. This gives traders clear areas to watch for potential sweeps, rejections, or reversals — without having to manually track session timings every day.
REQHs and REQLs — Equal Highs and Lows
This script detects Relatively Equal Highs and Lows (REQHs/REQLs), which are often used by institutions as stop-run targets.
It’s not just looking for copy-paste double tops or bottoms — it uses a tolerance-based algorithm that checks for clusters of similar highs or lows over a given time period. These are likely to hold stops and become magnets for price. When you see these on the chart, you’ll know where the “juice” is sitting.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG) — Multi-Timeframe
The script automatically plots Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on both:
-Your current chart timeframe
-One or more higher timeframes (like H1 or H4)
These are three-candle gaps that form when price moves aggressively without filling in value. Price often comes back to these areas to rebalance. Seeing both local and higher-timeframe FVGs on your chart gives better context and helps with entries and exits.
The script is optimized so your chart doesn’t get messy — higher timeframe FVGs show up in a cleaner format with visual labels and lighter shading.
SMT Divergence — With Session Logic
This tool includes a real-time SMT divergence detector, based on the behavior of correlated markets like ES vs. NQ.
Here’s how it works:
If ES sweeps a liquidity level (like Asia Low), but NQ doesn’t, the script detects and marks that divergence.
This often signals institutional accumulation or distribution — a high-probability setup.
You won’t have to flip between charts or manually compare — the SMT logic runs automatically and only fires when it matters (at key session levels). It’s a smarter, more focused way to track intermarket divergences.
Daily Highs and Lows — Week-to-Week Structure
The indicator keeps track of the high and low for each day of the week — Monday through Friday — helping you understand how price is evolving across the week.
This helps build a weekly profile:
Did Monday set the high of the week?
Are we sweeping Tuesday’s low on Thursday?
These levels stay visible and labeled, helping you frame daily setups inside the bigger picture.
🕛 Midnight Open & 8:30 AM Open Levels
These two levels are core ICT concepts used to judge whether price is in premium or discount:
Midnight Open (00:00 EST): Used to determine daily bias
New York Open (08:30 EST): Often a launch point for key moves
Both are drawn automatically and extend throughout the day. This helps you align your trades with potential algorithmic bias, especially during NY session volatility.
⏰ 9:45 AM Vertical Marker — Macro Time Reminder
The script draws a subtle vertical line at 9:45 AM EST, which is the start of the NY AM macro session — one of the most likely times to see setups play out.
This is more than just a timer — it’s a visual cue that something important might be setting up soon, especially if you’re already watching SMT, FVGs, or liquidity zones from earlier.
How It All Connects — A Workflow, Not a Mashup
Every feature in this script is connected to the same goal: helping you trade with the Smart Money.
Here’s how the pieces work together:

Math by Thomas FVG📌 Math by Thomas FVG – Fair Value Gap Detector
Overview:
The Math by Thomas FVG indicator automatically detects Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) using a three-candle logic. FVGs represent price inefficiencies where the first candle’s high/low does not overlap with the third candle’s low/high, creating a gap. This tool helps traders identify potential reversal or continuation zones, providing valuable insights into market structure and price action.
🔹 How It Works:
Bullish FVG:
Occurs when the current candle’s low is above the high of the candle two bars ago.
A green-shaded box marks the bullish FVG, highlighting a potential support zone.
Bearish FVG:
Occurs when the current candle’s high is below the low of the candle two bars ago.
A red-shaded box marks the bearish FVG, indicating a potential resistance zone.
Gap Filling Logic:
The indicator automatically removes FVGs once they are filled by price action, keeping the chart clean and relevant.
Bullish FVGs are removed when close ≤ the box's top.
Bearish FVGs are removed when close ≥ the box's bottom.
⚙️ Customization Options:
Bullish FVG Color: Choose the color for bullish FVGs.
Bearish FVG Color: Choose the color for bearish FVGs.
Max Box Count: The indicator dynamically manages up to 50 FVG boxes, ensuring optimal chart performance.
✅ Use Cases:
Identify price inefficiencies for potential entries and exits.
Combine with Order Blocks, support/resistance, or volume analysis for confirmation.
Useful for Smart Money Concept (SMC) and price action traders.
🔥 Enhance your trading accuracy with the Math by Thomas FVG indicator and gain insights into price inefficiencies! 🚀

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.
Advanced HFT Detection with VWAP & SpreadsExplanation of the HFT Detection Strategy
🔹 1. Key Indicators Used in the Strategy
It's works by combining VWAP, moving averages (SMA), volume spikes, and price jumps to detect potential HFT activity.
✅ (A) VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price)
VWAP acts as a benchmark price that professional traders and institutions use to execute large orders.
If price is above VWAP, buyers are in control → Bullish trend
If price is below VWAP, sellers are in control → Bearish trend
HFT algorithms often place buy orders above VWAP and sell orders below VWAP to follow momentum.
➡️ Why VWAP? It ensures that signals follow the institutional trading trend.
✅ (B) Moving Averages (SMA)
Moving averages smooth out price data and help in detecting short-term momentum changes.
Fast Moving Average (5-period SMA): Reacts quickly to price changes
Slow Moving Average (20-period SMA): Identifies trend direction
➡️ Why SMA? It filters noise and confirms short-term trend shifts.
✅ (C) Volume Spike Detection
High-frequency trading is often accompanied by large volume surges. We define a volume spike as:
📌 Current Volume > 2× Average Volume of last 20 bars
➡️ Why Volume? HFTs execute rapid buy/sell orders when they detect liquidity, leading to sudden volume bursts.
✅ (D) Price Jump Detection (Sudden Volatility)
HFT algorithms often exploit quick price movements. We check if the price has moved more than twice the ATR (Average True Range) in the last 5 bars.
➡️ Why ATR? It helps to detect abnormal price movements compared to normal volatility.
🔹 2. Trading Signal Logic
Now that we have VWAP, moving averages, volume, and price movement filters, we generate buy and sell signals based on conditions.
✅ (A) Buy Signal Condition
A BUY signal is triggered when:
✔ Fast SMA crosses above Slow SMA → Short-term trend is turning bullish
✔ Volume spike occurs → HFTs are active
✔ Sudden price jump detected → High volatility
✔ Price is above VWAP → Confirms bullish trend
➡️ Why this works? It confirms that institutional traders & HFTs are buying aggressively.
✅ (B) Sell Signal Condition
A SELL signal is triggered when:
✔ Fast SMA crosses below Slow SMA → Short-term trend is turning bearish
✔ Volume spike occurs → HFTs are selling aggressively
✔ Sudden price drop detected → High volatility
✔ Price is below VWAP → Confirms bearish trend
➡️ Why this works? It confirms that institutional traders & HFTs are selling aggressively.
🔹 3. Visual Representation (Plotting Signals & VWAP)
Once we detect buy and sell signals, we mark them on the chart.
✅ (A) Buy/Sell Markers
🟢 Buy → Green upward arrow below the candle
🔴 Sell → Red downward arrow above the candle
✅ (B) VWAP Line on Chart
We also plot VWAP as a blue line to visualize trend direction.
✅ (C) Highlighting Volume Spikes
To easily spot HFT activity, we highlight volume spike bars with a blue background.
🔹 4. How to Use This Strategy?
1️⃣ Apply this script on a 1-minute or 5-minute intraday chart.
2️⃣ Look for BUY signals above VWAP and SELL signals below VWAP.
3️⃣ Verify that the volume spikes before taking action.
4️⃣ Use stop-loss & risk management (e.g., stop-loss at recent low/high).
🚀 Summary: Why This Strategy Works?
✅ VWAP ensures we follow institutional traders
✅ Volume spikes confirm sudden liquidity inflows
✅ Price jumps detect fast market moves caused by HFT bots
✅ Moving averages smooth out short-term trend shifts
