Volatility Regimes | GainzAlgo📊 OVERVIEW:
=========
This is a comprehensive ATR-based trading system designed for professional
traders who need advanced volatility analysis, precise trade management, and
intelligent market regime detection. The indicator combines multiple proven
volatility concepts into one powerful, customizable tool.
⭐ WHY THIS SYSTEM IS UNIQUE AND WORTHY OF PUBLICATION:
====================================================
This is not simply a collection of ATR-based indicators placed together.
It represents a unified volatility analysis framework where each component
is specifically designed to work in concert with the others, creating a
complete trading workflow that cannot be replicated by using multiple
separate indicators.
🔗 SYNERGISTIC INTEGRATION - How Components Work Together:
🧠 1. CONTEXT-AWARE ANALYSIS
The Volatility Regime Detection acts as the "brain" of the system,
classifying market conditions into 4 distinct phases. Every other
component then adapts its behavior based on this regime classification:
- ATR Bands expand/contract with regime changes
- Stop Loss distances automatically adjust (tighter in compression,
wider in high volatility)
- Take Profit targets scale proportionally to current regime
- Signal sensitivity filters itself based on market phase
📐 2. UNIFIED VOLATILITY FOUNDATION
All calculations share a single ATR baseline calculation, ensuring
internal consistency across the entire system. When ATR changes, every
element updates in perfect synchronization:
- Bands recalculate from the same ATR value
- Risk management levels use the same volatility measurement
- Regime classification and signals reference identical data
🛡️ 3. INTEGRATED RISK MANAGEMENT
The system doesn't just show WHERE to enter - it calculates HOW MUCH
to risk:
- Dynamic Stop Loss adapts to current ATR automatically
- Position Size Calculator uses the dynamic stop to compute exact quantities
- Take Profit levels scale proportionally, maintaining optimal risk:reward
✅ 4. TWO-STAGE SIGNAL CONFIRMATION
The alert system creates a logical progression:
Step 1: Volatility Breakout → Market energy is building
Step 2: Trend Confirmation → Direction confirmed with volatility support
This prevents false breakouts by requiring both volatility AND direction.
🏦 5. PROFESSIONAL WORKFLOW INTEGRATION
The system mirrors how institutional traders analyze markets:
Phase 1: Assess regime → What's the market doing?
Phase 2: Identify setup → Where's the opportunity?
Phase 3: Calculate risk → What's my exposure?
Phase 4: Set targets → Where do I take profit?
Phase 5: Monitor regime → When do conditions change?
❌ WHY NOT USE SEPARATE INDICATORS?
- Separate ATR Bands: Don't know about regime changes, remain static
- Separate Regime Indicator: Doesn't automatically adjust stop/targets
- Separate Position Calculator: Doesn't know your actual ATR-based stop
- Manual Integration: Requires constant mental calculation and cross-referencing
🧮 DETAILED CALCULATION METHODOLOGY:
=================================
📏 ATR (AVERAGE TRUE RANGE) CALCULATION:
- True Range = Maximum of:
1. Current High - Current Low
2. Absolute value of (Current High - Previous Close)
3. Absolute value of (Current Low - Previous Close)
- ATR = Simple Moving Average of True Range over specified period (default: 14)
📊 DYNAMIC ATR BANDS:
- Upper Band = Current Close + (ATR × Band Multiplier)
- Lower Band = Current Close - (ATR × Band Multiplier)
- Band 1: 1.0× ATR (closest support/resistance)
- Band 2: 2.0× ATR (intermediate zone)
- Band 3: 3.0× ATR (extended zone)
🌡️ VOLATILITY REGIME CLASSIFICATION:
Step 1: Calculate ATR Baseline
- Baseline ATR = SMA or EMA of ATR over long period (default: 50 bars)
- This represents "normal" volatility for the instrument
Step 2: Calculate ATR Ratio
- ATR Ratio = Current ATR ÷ Baseline ATR
- Example: If current ATR = 70 and baseline = 50, ratio = 1.40
Step 3: Classify Regime Based on Ratio
- COMPRESSION: Ratio < 0.70 (ATR is 30% below normal)
Market consolidating, volatility contracting, energy building
- EXPANSION: Ratio between 1.15 and 1.40 (ATR is 15-40% above normal)
Volatility breaking out, early phase of directional movement
- HIGH VOLATILITY: Ratio > 1.40 (ATR is 40%+ above normal)
Strong sustained trend with high participation
- EXHAUSTION: ATR declining after high volatility period
Requires: Previous high ratio + declining ATR over X bars (default: 5)
Trend maturity, potential reversal or consolidation approaching
🛑 DYNAMIC STOP LOSS CALCULATION:
- For Long Positions: Stop Loss = Entry Price - (ATR × SL Multiplier)
- For Short Positions: Stop Loss = Entry Price + (ATR × SL Multiplier)
- Default Multiplier: 2.0× ATR
- Adjusts automatically: Wider in high volatility, tighter in compression
🎯 TAKE PROFIT LEVELS:
- TP1 = Entry Price ± (ATR × TP1 Multiplier)
- TP2 = Entry Price ± (ATR × TP2 Multiplier)
- TP3 = Entry Price ± (ATR × TP3 Multiplier)
- Direction (+ or -) depends on trade direction
📦 POSITION SIZE CALCULATION:
Formula: Position Size = Account Risk Amount ÷ Stop Loss Distance
Step-by-step:
1. Risk Amount = Account Size × (Risk Percentage ÷ 100)
2. Stop Distance = |Entry Price - Stop Loss Price|
3. Position Size = Risk Amount ÷ Stop Distance
📈 ATR PERCENTILE RANKING:
- >80% = Extremely high volatility
- 20-80% = Normal volatility range
- <20% = Extremely low volatility
🌀 VOLATILITY CONTRACTION PATTERN:
Detects extended low-volatility periods indicating imminent breakout.
🧭 TREND DETECTION SIGNALS:
Bullish: Price > MA AND Current ATR > ATR MA
Bearish: Price < MA AND Current ATR > ATR MA
⚡ VOLATILITY BREAKOUT SIGNALS:
Triggered when ATR exceeds its moving average by a defined threshold.

Auction Session Ranges (AMT Edition) [ Alerts] Auction Session Ranges (AMT Edition)
► Overview
The Session Ranges ( AMT Edition) is a session-based market structure and auction analysis tool designed to visually reveal acceptance, rejection, imbalance, and continuation across the Asia, London, and New York CME trading sessions.
Unlike typical indicators, this script is grounded in Auction Market Theory (AMT) and session-based structure, focusing on how price behaves at session extremes rather than relying on lagging calculations, oscillators, or predictive algorithms. Its purpose is to highlight areas where the market has earned the right to be traded, providing traders with a clear, rules-based framework for high-probability directional trades.
Important for backtesting: To properly backtest session extremes, Interaction Lines, and Closest Opposite Extreme Lines, you must use TradingView’s replay mode, as real-time bar-by-bar progression is required to observe how the market interacts with session extremes over time.
► Key Innovations
This is not a conventional session high/low indicator. Its originality comes from several unique design elements:
Differentiates interaction from true acceptance: Price touching an extreme does not automatically indicate directional intent.
Separates directional confirmation from range-bound indecision: Only confirmed crossings beyond the Interaction Line signal actionable bias.
Tracks failed auctions and partial acceptance: No volume profile or order book data required.
Visual, rule-based trade permission: Signals are objective, minimizing subjective interpretation.
Interaction & Closest Opposite Extreme Lines: Together, these lines map how far an auction progresses after an extreme is tested, highlighting continuation, partial acceptance, or failed auctions.
► Core Concepts Explained
1. Session Highs & Lows (Solid Lines)
Plotted continuously for each CME session (Asia, London, New York).
Represent the current auction boundaries for that session.
2. True Interaction Lines (Thick Dotted Lines)
Drawn when price touches or breaks a session extreme:
Touching session high → dotted line at the low of that candle
Touching session low → dotted line at the high of that candle
Auction context:
Touching alone ≠ acceptance
Acceptance occurs only when price moves beyond the Interaction Line and holds
Trading principle:
Price has not crossed → no directional bias → do not trade
Price crosses and holds → directional bias established
3. Acceptance vs Rejection
Accepted direction: Price crosses and holds beyond the Interaction Line
Rejected direction: Price crosses the line but immediately reverses
Neutral / No-Trade: Price trapped between extreme and Interaction Line
Important: Acceptance is conditional and dynamic. Each time price crosses back over the Interaction Line, acceptance is lost.
4. New Extremes = Continuation
Once an Interaction Line is crossed, each new session extreme in that direction reinforces the trend.
Traders should only look for continuation setups along the established directional bias.
AMT interpretation:
Repeated new extremes → directional imbalance
Failure to make new extremes → potential balance or rotation
5. Closest Opposite Extreme Lines (Thin Dotted Lines)
After acceptance, the script tracks price progress toward the opposite session extreme.
Plotted only if price reaches a user-defined percentage of the session range.
Helps identify:
Full acceptance (price reaches opposite extreme)
Partial acceptance (price stalls)
Failed auctions (price cannot progress meaningfully)
Trading guidance once Closest Lines appear:
Partial acceptance: Price stalls near the Closest Line but does not fully reach the opposite extreme → bias remains valid, but the move may be weakening; consider scaling out or tightening stops.
Full acceptance: Price reaches the opposite extreme → directional auction fully confirmed; bias continues, but expect potential rotation or balance afterward.
Failed auction (cannot progress meaningfully): Price reverses before reaching the Closest Line → signals exhaustion; avoid chasing the move and treat as potential trend failure.
Note: Only relevant after Interaction Line is crossed; if price never crosses the Interaction Line, Closest Lines have no trading significance.
► Step-by-Step Usage
Wait for a session extreme
Let price interact with the session high or low.
Observe the Interaction Line
No cross → do not trade
Cross and hold → directional bias established
Trade in the direction of new extremes only
Ignore counter-trend trades unless the Interaction Line is lost
Manage risk using structure
Interaction Line acts as a dynamic invalidation level
Use Closest Lines for context
Partial acceptance → bias valid, watch for weakening
Full acceptance → bias strong, continuation likely
Failed attempt → potential exhaustion, do not chase
Useful for trade management, scaling, and expectation setting
► Price Retests & Pullbacks
Scenario:
Price crosses above the Interaction Line (e.g., from a low interaction).
Over the next 3–4 15-minute bars, price dips back toward the Interaction Line, with wicks touching it but no decisive close below.
Interpretation:
Initial Acceptance Confirmed: Bias remains valid while price holds above/below the line.
Temporary Pullback / Retest: Market is re-evaluating the auction; testing participant agreement.
Wicks Touching the Line: Partial probing or liquidity sweep; market still respects original acceptance.
Trading Implication:
Continuation bias remains intact.
Pullbacks near the Interaction Line offer lower-risk entries.
Decisive close below → acceptance lost, signaling trend failure or invalidation.
Market Psychology:
Healthy auction behavior: extreme tested → acceptance confirmed → boundary retested for liquidity → continuation.
Failure to hold above signals weak acceptance or exhaustion.
✅ Key Takeaways:
Holding above Interaction Line → bias intact, pullback = opportunity
Closing below Interaction Line → acceptance lost, bias invalidated
Wicks touching only → normal retest, still valid
► No-Trade Conditions
Avoid trading when:
Price never crosses the Interaction Line
Price remains trapped between the extreme and the Interaction Line
Market rotates without forming new extremes
These indicate balance, not directional opportunity.
► Alerts
Optional alerts trigger when price crosses an Interaction Line for:
Asia session
London session
New York session
Alerts signal possible acceptance, not automatic trade entries.
► Who This Script Is For
Best suited for traders who:
Trade session structure in futures, indices, or FX
Follow Auction Market Theory principles
Prefer objective, rules-based confirmation
Want fewer but higher-quality trade opportunities
Not intended for:
Indicator stacking
Predictive trading
High-frequency scalping without structure
► Final Notes
This script does not tell you when to buy or sell.
It shows where the market has earned the right to be traded.
Use it as a decision filter, not a prediction engine.

Volume-Based Indicator — Data Granularity & Table Guide
1) Critical warning about data granularity (read first)
Important: This indicator is built entirely on volume-derived calculations (volume, volume delta, and related flow metrics). Because of that, its precision is only as good as the granularity and history of the data you feed it.
The most granular view is a tick-based interval (e.g., 1T = one trade/tick). If tick-based intervals are not available for your symbol or your plan, the closest time-based approximation is a 1-second chart (1S).
If you enable any "high-precision / intrabar" options (anything that relies on the smallest updates), make sure you understand which TradingView plan you are using, because intrabar historical depth (how many bars you can load) varies by plan. More history generally means more stable baselines for volume statistics, regime detection, and long lookback features.
Plan-related notes (TradingView)
TradingView limits how many intrabar historical bars can be loaded, depending on your plan. The exact limits are defined by TradingView and can change over time, but as of the current documentation, the intrabar limits are:
• Basic: 5,000 bars
• Essential: 10,000 bars
• Plus: 10,000 bars
• Premium: 20,000 bars
• Expert: 25,000 bars
• Ultimate: 40,000 bars
Tick charts / tick-based intervals are currently positioned as a feature of professional-tier plans (e.g., Expert/Elite/Ultimate). Availability may also vary by symbol and data feed.

2. Smart "News" Headlines Since Pine Script cannot access the live internet for news, this script uses an Algorithmic Headline Generator. It analyzes price action and trend alignment to generate a "Market Status" summary:
Full Bull Trend: Intraday + Daily + Weekly trends are all positive.
Strong Rally: Asset is up significantly (>1.25%) on the day.
Heavy Sell-off: Asset is down significantly (<-1.25%) on the day.
Pullback (Buy?): Daily trend is UP, but Intraday is DOWN (potential entry).
Consolidating: Market is chopping sideways.
3. Timeframe Trend Matrix Monitor momentum across the curve with a single glance. The "Trend" columns are powered by the 5 EMA (Exponential Moving Average):
Intraday: Adapts to your current chart timeframe (e.g., switch your chart to 15m to see the 15m trend).
Daily / Weekly / Monthly: These are hard coded to always show the higher timeframe trend, regardless of what chart you are looking at. Trend is determined by price in relation to it's 5 EMA.
4. "Terminal" Aesthetic
Styled with a dark, high-contrast Bloomberg Terminal look.
Uses Amber tickers and Neon status blocks for rapid visual scanning.
Optimized for Full Screen Mode: Hide your main chart candles to turn your monitor into a dedicated data dashboard.
How to Use
Add the indicator to your chart and move it to "New Lower Indicator" Then repeat 4 times for each dashboard.

SMC Market Structure (HH/HL/LH/LL + BOS/CHoCH/MSS)SMC Market Structure (HH/HL/LH/LL + BOS/CHoCH/MSS) is a clean price-action / Smart Money Concepts market structure tool designed to automatically identify and label key structural events on the chart:
Swing structure points: HH, HL, LH, LL
Continuation confirmations: BOS (Break of Structure)
Early reversal warnings: CHoCH (Change of Character)
Stronger reversal signals: MSS (Market Structure Shift) using a displacement filter
The script is built to remain visually tidy: it draws simple horizontal structure lines at the broken swing level and prints small abbreviations (BOS / CHoCH / MSS) directly on the chart without cluttering candles or adding heavy panels.
What the Indicator Detects
1) Swing Points (HH / HL / LH / LL)
Swings are detected using confirmed pivots (left/right “Swing length” bars).
HH (Higher High): a swing high above the previous swing high
LH (Lower High): a swing high below the previous swing high
HL (Higher Low): a swing low above the previous swing low
LL (Lower Low): a swing low below the previous swing low
These labels help define the market’s active structure:
Bullish structure: HH + HL sequence
Bearish structure: LL + LH sequence
Range / consolidation: mixed swing progression
2) BOS (Break of Structure) – Trend Continuation
A BOS prints when price breaks the most recent swing level in the direction of the current structure:
In a bullish market state → break above the most recent swing high
In a bearish market state → break below the most recent swing low
This is typically treated as confirmation that the existing trend is continuing.
3) CHoCH (Change of Character) – Early Reversal Signal
A CHoCH prints on the first break against the current structure:
In a bullish market state → break below the most recent swing low
In a bearish market state → break above the most recent swing high
CHoCH is intended as an early warning that the market may be transitioning into a new directional bias.
4) MSS (Market Structure Shift) – Stronger Reversal via Displacement
MSS is treated as a “strong CHoCH” and requires a decisive, displacement-style candle at the break.
To qualify as MSS, the script requires:
A break against structure with a CLOSE break, and
A displacement candle where:
Candle body > ATR × Displacement Multiplier
This helps filter out shallow wicks or minor liquidity grabs and highlights shifts that show stronger participation and momentum.
How the Indicator Draws on the Chart
When a BOS / CHoCH / MSS occurs:
A horizontal line is drawn from the swing point to the break bar at the broken level.
A small abbreviation label (BOS / CHoCH / MSS) is placed either:
In the middle of the line segment, or
On the break bar (selectable)
Swing labels (HH/HL/LH/LL) are optional and can be disabled for a cleaner “event-only” layout.
Inputs & Settings
Swing Length (Pivot Left/Right)
Controls how sensitive the swing detection is.
Lower values (3–5): more structure points, more signals
Higher values (8–14): fewer, cleaner swings (better for higher timeframes)
Break Confirmation (Wick vs Close)
Wick: break triggers when the candle’s wick crosses the swing level
Close: break triggers only when the candle closes beyond the swing level
Many SMC traders prefer Wick for detecting liquidity runs and early breaks, while others prefer Close to reduce false signals.
MSS Displacement Filter
ATR Length: ATR calculation period
Displacement Multiplier: Minimum body size = ATR × multiplier
Higher multiplier = fewer MSS signals, but stronger quality threshold.
Display Toggles
Show/Hide Swing Labels (HH/HL/LH/LL)
Show/Hide BOS, CHoCH, MSS
Optional EQH/EQL labeling (equal highs/lows)
Visual Controls
Bullish / bearish structure colors
Line width / style
Text offset (in ticks) to keep labels neat above/below level
Maximum structure objects to keep on screen (prevents object-limit issues)
Recommended Usage
Trend Following
Use HH/HL or LL/LH progression to define the trend.
Wait for BOS to confirm continuation.
Use BOS levels as:
Bias confirmation
Potential retest zones
Risk reference for stop placement
Reversal / Shift Detection
Identify prevailing structure (bullish or bearish).
Watch for CHoCH as the first sign of a possible reversal.
Treat MSS as a stronger “shift” event (displacement + close break), often suitable for:
Changing directional bias
Switching from pullback trading to reversal continuation setups
Multi-Timeframe Workflow (Common SMC Method)
Higher timeframe (HTF): use swings and BOS to define macro bias
Lower timeframe (LTF): use CHoCH/MSS to time entries and manage risk
Confirm entries with your preferred tools (order blocks, FVGs, liquidity pools, session timing, etc.)
Notes & Limitations
This script uses confirmed pivots, so swing labels appear only after the swing is fully formed (after Swing length bars). This avoids repainting swing points.
BOS/CHoCH/MSS events are derived from the most recent confirmed swing levels.
MSS requires a close break and displacement threshold even if “Wick” breaks are enabled for other events (by design, to keep MSS strict).
Best Settings by Timeframe (General Guide)
Scalping (1–5m): Swing length 3–5, Wick breaks, MSS multiplier 1.2–1.8
Intraday (15m–1h): Swing length 5–8, Wick or Close, MSS multiplier 1.5–2.0
Swing trading (4h–1D): Swing length 8–14, Close breaks, MSS multiplier 1.8–2.5
HTF Pivots SignalsIntroduction :
HPS (HTF Pivot Signals) provides traders with a systematic approach to Higher Timeframe structure analysis and signal confirmation. Designed for traders seeking to identify confirmed structure changes, this indicator detects HTF pivot interactions and generates entry signals when price confirms beyond chart timeframe pivot levels. The indicator helps analysts identify key structure breaks, momentum shifts, and high-probability entry points based on confirmed pivot interactions.
Description :
HPS is rooted in the principle that Higher Timeframe structure changes provide context for lower timeframe price action. When an HTF pivot is interacted with (mitigated), it signals a potential opportunity for a mean reversal. The indicator then waits for confirmation on the chart timeframe before generating a signal, ensuring only confirmed setups are highlighted.
Main indicator screenshot showing HTF pivots and confirmation signals
The system operates by detecting pivot highs and lows on a higher timeframe, tracking when these pivots are interacted with, and confirming signals when price closes beyond chart timeframe pivot levels. This two-step process—interaction followed by confirmation—filters out false signals and provides only actionable setups.
HPS automatically calculates the optimal higher timeframe pairing (typically 15-16x the chart timeframe) or allows manual selection. The indicator remains stable and non-repainting, offering traders reliable, unchanged levels within the given time period. Pivot cleanup is managed by mitigation order rather than age, ensuring the most recent interactions remain visible while older ones are removed systematically.
Key Features:
Automatic HTF Selection: The indicator automatically calculates the optimal higher timeframe pairing based on your chart timeframe, typically using 15-16x multiples (e.g., 5m → 1h, 15m → 4h, 1h → 1D). For a more dynamic experience, the Automatic feature autonomously adjusts the higher timeframe pairing based on the current chart timeframe, ensuring accurate alignment with structure analysis. Manual override is available for custom timeframe selection.
Confirmed Pivot Detection: HPS only displays confirmed HTF pivots that have been interacted with. Unlike basic pivot indicators that show all pivots, HPS requires pivot interaction before displaying, eliminating noise and focusing on actionable structure changes. Pivots are marked with PH (Pivot High) and PL (Pivot Low) labels when enabled.
Signal Confirmation System: When an HTF pivot is interacted with, a pending signal is created signaling a potential mean reversal opportunity. The signal confirms when price closes beyond the chart timeframe pivot level—pivot low for bearish signals, pivot high for bullish signals. Confirmed signals display with OB+ (bullish) or OB- (bearish) labels and extending confirmation lines that mark the entry level.
Mitigation-Based Cleanup: Pivot cleanup is managed by mitigation order rather than age. The system maintains the latest mitigated pivots while removing older ones based on interaction time. This ensures recent interactions remain visible while preventing chart clutter. The maximum number of mitigated pivots displayed is configurable based on the max pivots setting.
Customizable Display: Full control over visual elements including pivot highs/lows visibility, pivot labels (PH/PL), confirmation lines, colors, and line width. Confirmation line labels (OB+/OB-) always display regardless of label toggle settings, ensuring signal visibility. Adjust the maximum number of pivots displayed to match your charting style and analysis needs.
Stop Level Calculation: Automatically calculates stop levels based on the maximum price (for bearish signals) or minimum price (for bullish signals) from signal creation to confirmation. These levels represent the risk point for each confirmed signal, providing clear risk management reference points.
Stop level calculation visualization
Multi-Timeframe Compatibility: Works across all TradingView timeframes and market types including Forex, Crypto, Stocks, and Futures. The automatic HTF selection adapts to any chart timeframe, providing consistent structure analysis regardless of the trading instrument or timeframe selected.
Multi-timeframe compatibility example
Usage Guidance :
Add HPS (HTF Pivot Signals) to your TradingView chart.
Select your preferred HTF pairing (Automatic or Manual) and adjust display settings to match your visual preferences.
Monitor for HTF pivot interactions—when price mitigates an HTF pivot, a pending signal is created signaling a potential mean reversal opportunity. Wait for confirmation when price closes beyond the chart timeframe pivot level, indicated by OB+ or OB- labels.
Use the confirmation lines and stop levels to identify entry points and manage risk. Combine with your existing analysis methods to enhance structure-based trading decisions.

Trading Strategy
Based on Andrew Aziz's VWAP Methodology
Setup Requirements:
* Stock must be "in play" (gap, news, high relative volume from morning scanner)
* Price pulls back to VWAP during the trading day
* VWAP acts as support for longs (or resistance for shorts)
Entry Rules:
1. Wait for price to approach VWAP
2. Confirm VWAP as support with a bullish candle closing above it
3. Enter long on confirmation candle close or next candle open
4. All filters (trend, volume, time) must be green
Stop Loss:
* Place stop 2-5 cents below VWAP
* Adjust based on stock volatility and your risk tolerance
Profit Targets:
* First target: Previous resistance or swing high
* Second target: Daily pivot or Fibonacci extension
* Trailing stop: Move stop to breakeven once up 1:1 risk/reward
Risk Management:
* Risk 1-2% of account per trade
* Position size based on distance from stop loss
* Aim for 2:1 or 3:1 reward-to-risk ratio
Common Scenarios
Scenario 1: Clean VWAP Bounce
* All filters green ✓
* Price pulls back to VWAP
* Green triangle appears
* Action: Enter long immediately
Scenario 2: Failed Volume
* Trend ✓, Time ✓, Near VWAP ✓
* Volume ✗ (red X)
* Action: Wait for volume increase or skip trade
Scenario 3: Wrong Time Window
* All filters green except Time ✗
* Action: If you trade mid-day, consider extending time window in settings
Scenario 4: Downtrend
* Trend ✗ (EMA 20 < EMA 50)
* Action: Skip long entry; consider short setup instead
Scenario 5: False Breakout
* Light red background appears (filters failed)
* Price crossed VWAP but no confirmation
* Action: No entry; indicator correctly filtered out weak signal
Best Practices
1. Pre-Market Preparation
* Run your gappers scanner at 9:00 AM EST
* Identify 3-5 stocks "in play"
* Add VWAP Long Entry PRO to each chart
* Set up alerts for your watchlist
2. Chart Timeframe Selection
* 1-minute: Scalping, high-frequency entries (more signals, more noise)
* 2-minute: Balanced (recommended for beginners)
* 5-minute: Swing entries, fewer but higher-quality signals
3. Combine with Price Action
The indicator is a filter and alert system, not a complete strategy. Also consider:
* Support/resistance levels
* Candlestick patterns (hammer, engulfing)
* Overall market trend (SPY, QQQ)
* Stock-specific news and catalysts
4. Backtesting
* Use TradingView's Bar Replay feature
* Review past signals on your favorite stocks
* Adjust filter settings based on your results
* Document win rate and average R:R
5. Paper Trading First
* Test the indicator with paper trading for 1-2 weeks
* Track all signals and outcomes
* Refine settings before risking real capital
Troubleshooting
Problem: No Signals Appearing
Solutions:
* Check if all filters are enabled (they may be too restrictive)
* Verify stock has sufficient volume and volatility
* Try increasing VWAP proximity from 0.2% to 0.3%
* Disable time filter if trading mid-day
* Check if stock is actually near VWAP on chart
Problem: Too Many Signals
Solutions:
* Decrease VWAP proximity from 0.2% to 0.1%
* Increase volume multiplier from 1.5x to 2.0x
* Enable all filters (trend, volume, time)
* Use 5-minute chart instead of 1-minute
Problem: Filter Status Table Not Visible
Solutions:
* Scroll chart to right (table is in top right corner)
* Check if indicator is loaded (should appear in indicator list on left)
* Refresh chart and re-add indicator
* Close other overlapping indicators
Problem: Alert Not Firing
Solutions:
* Verify alert is set to "Once Per Bar Close" (not "Only Once")
* Check alert hasn't expired
* Ensure correct symbols are selected in alert
* Confirm indicator is applied to chart with alert

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use this for short entries?
A: The current version is for long entries only. For shorts, you'd need to reverse the logic (price rejecting VWAP as resistance, downtrend, etc.).
Q: What stocks work best with this indicator?
A: Mid-cap momentum stocks ($1B-$10B market cap), price $10-$100, daily volume > 1M, with a clear catalyst (earnings, news, sector move).
Q: Can I trade this on daily or weekly charts?
A: No. VWAP is an intraday indicator that resets each trading day. Use only on intraday timeframes (1m, 2m, 5m, 15m, 30m).
Q: Should I take every signal?
A: No. Use the indicator as a filter, not a mechanical system. Consider overall market conditions, stock-specific catalysts, and your own price action analysis.
Q: How accurate is this indicator?
A: Accuracy depends on market conditions, stock selection, and your execution. Expect 50-65% win rate with proper 2:1+ risk/reward, similar to Aziz's methodology.

Level 3 (Orange): Long-term (Lookback 20) - Strongest levels.
* Simplified Alerts
MA Cross (Any): Triggers when price crosses the main MA line (Trend entry/exit).
Major S/R Touch: Triggers ONLY when price touches the strongest Level 3 lines (Reversal check).
* Recommended Chart Setup (Important)
Use Range Bars: This system is optimized for Range Charts, not standard time-based candles (e.g., 1m, 5m).
Focus on Price: Range bars ignore the time axis completely and generate new bars only when the price moves a specific amount. This eliminates time-based noise.
How to Set:
Click the timeframe menu in the top bar.
Select "Range".
Choose a value based on volatility (e.g., 40R for scalping, 100R for crypto/indices).
HAMA 캔들 & 자동 지지저항 시스템
* 개요:
이 지표는 HAMA (Heiken Ashi Moving Average) 캔들의 추세 추종 기능과 자동 지지/저항(S/R) 시스템을 결합한 도구임. 시장의 노이즈를 제거하고 핵심 반전 구간을 찾는 데 최적화됨.
* 핵심 기능
HAMA 캔들 (추세)
노이즈가 제거된 부드러운 캔들로 진짜 추세를 보여줌.
초록색: 상승 추세
빨간색: 하락 추세
중앙 MA 라인의 그라디언트 색상으로 추세 강도를 시각적으로 확인 가능.
자동 지지 & 저항 (레벨)
피봇 포인트 기반으로 지지/저항선을 자동 작도함.
Level 1 (흰색): 단기 (Lookback 5) - 스캘핑용
Level 2 (노란색): 중기 (Lookback 10) - 스윙용
Level 3 (주황색): 장기 (Lookback 20) - 가장 강력한 지지/저항 구간
간편 알람 (Alerts)
MA Cross (Any): 가격이 중앙 MA 라인을 돌파할 때 울림 (진입/청산 신호).
Major S/R Touch: 가장 강력한 Level 3 라인을 터치할 때만 울림 (반전 확인용).
* 추천 차트 설정 (필독)
레인지(Range) 차트 사용: 이 지표는 일반적인 시간 봉(분봉, 시봉)이 아니라 레인지 바에 최적화되어 있음.
가격 집중: 시간의 흐름(X축)을 무시하고, 오직 '가격'이 움직일 때만 캔들이 생성됨. 이렇게 하면 횡보 구간의 노이즈가 사라짐.
설정 방법:
트레이딩뷰 상단 시간 메뉴 클릭.
'Range' 선택.
자산 변동성에 맞춰 값 설정 (예: 스캘핑은 40R, 비트코인/지수는 100R 추천).

5D Above-Average Volume (Screener)How to think about the two modes
“5D AVG > Baseline AVG” = sustained elevated activity over the last 5 sessions.
“EACH of last 5 days…” = stricter: every one of the last 5 daily bars beats the baseline.
A good starting point is baselineDays = 20 and multiple = 1.20 (20% above baseline). Tighten to 1.50 if you only want really “unusual” volume.
2) Run it as a screener (Pine Screener)
Favorite the indicator (Pine Screener only shows indicators in your Favorites).
TradingView
Go to Products → Screeners → Pine.
TradingView
+1
Pick the watchlist you want to scan (e.g., “S&P 500”, your custom universe, etc.).
TradingView
Select this indicator, set the timeframe to 1D (so “5 trading days” = 5 daily bars).
TradingView
Filter on either:
Signal (1 = match) == 1, or
5D/Baseline Volume Ratio > 1.2 (or your chosen threshold)
Click Scan.
TradingView
3) Optional: make it “push” opportunities to you (Watchlist Alert)
If you’d rather get notified than manually scan, you can create a watchlist alert so the condition runs across the whole list and triggers per symbol (during regular trading hours).
TradingView
Use the script’s “5D Above-Average Volume” alert condition as the trigger.
Quick note on TradingView’s built-in “Relative Volume”
TradingView’s built-in Relative Volume is based on Volume ÷ SMA(10) (and excludes the current bar in the average). That’s useful, but it’s not “last 5 days” specifically—your Pine Screener approach above is the exact 5-day logic.
TradingView
If you tell me your “baseline” definition (20D? 50D?) and whether you mean avg of last 5 or each of last 5, I can tune the defaults to match your style.
Smart Candlestick Pattern Filter [MarkitTick]💡 This Script is a sophisticated technical analysis tool designed to identify, grade, and display over 40 distinct candlestick formations based on a proprietary strength and context filtering system. Unlike standard pattern finders that often clutter charts with conflicting signals, this script utilizes a hierarchy logic to display only the most significant pattern detected on any given candle, ensuring chart clarity and actionable data.
● Originality and Utility
The primary utility of this script lies in its filtering engine. Standard indicators often flag every minor Doji or Spinning Top, creating noise. This indicator categorizes patterns into five distinct levels of strength, ranging from simple indecision to very strong reversal or continuation signals.
Furthermore, it incorporates a Trend Context filter, which checks the relationship between price and a Simple Moving Average (SMA). This ensures that reversal patterns (like Hammers) are prioritized during downtrends, while continuation patterns are highlighted during established moves, reducing false positives.
● Methodology
The indicator evaluates price action using specific ratios between the Open, High, Low, and Close, alongside the body size relative to the total range. It assigns a strength score to each detected pattern.
• Pattern Strength Grading
Strength 1 (Indecision): Includes patterns like Doji, Spinning Tops, Dragonfly, and Gravestone Dojis. These signal a pause in momentum.
Strength 2 (Weak): Includes patterns like Hanging Man, Inverted Hammer, Belt Holds, and In-Neck lines. These suggest potential movement but often require confirmation.
Strength 3 (Moderate): Includes classic reversals like Hammers, Shooting Stars, Haramis, Dark Cloud Cover, and Piercing Lines.
Strength 4 (Strong): Includes major signals like Engulfing patterns, Morning/Evening Stars, and Marubozu candles.
Strength 5 (Very Strong): Reserved for rare, high-probability multi-candle formations like Three White Soldiers, Three Black Crows, Rising/Falling Three Methods, and Breakaway gaps.
The script calculates all potential patterns for the current bar and then compares their strength scores. Only the pattern with the highest strength is displayed. If the Show Trend Context option is enabled, the script further validates the pattern against the current market direction (determined by the SMA and slope) before plotting.
● How to Use
Traders can use this tool to identify potential entry and exit points based on the strength of the signal.
• Visual Signals
Patterns are labeled directly on the chart:
Green Labels/Text: Indicate Bullish patterns.
Red Labels/Text: Indicate Bearish patterns.
Gray/White Labels: Indicate Indecision or Weak patterns.
Hovering over any label provides the full name of the pattern and its strength rating (e.g., "Bullish Engulfing - Strength: Strong").
• Trading Logic
High Strength Signals (Levels 4-5): These can be used as primary triggers for trend reversals or strong continuations.
Moderate Signals (Level 3): Useful for adding confluence to existing analysis or anticipating a setup.
Indecision (Level 1): Often useful for taking profits or tightening stop-losses, as they indicate the current trend may be stalling.
● Settings
Show Only Strong Patterns: When enabled, filters out Strength 1, 2, and 3, showing only the most significant signals (Strength >= 4).
Max Patterns to Display: Limits the number of historical labels to prevent chart clutter.
Max Candles to Check Engulfing: Adjusts how far back the script looks to validate the size of an engulfing candle.
Trend Detection Period: Sets the length of the SMA used to determine the background trend context.
Show Only Trend-Appropriate Patterns: If checked, bullish reversals are only shown in downtrends, and bearish reversals in uptrends.

Yes – **there have been and still are early warning systems** that have **partially reliably signaled major market drawdowns or bear markets** in the past. **None is perfect**, but **combinations** of multiple signals have historically shown a high hit rate, **especially for Risk-Off phases**.
I’ll break this down in a structured, practical way, with a clear focus on trading and portfolio hedging.
---
## 1️⃣ Macro Early-Warning Systems (Top-Down)
### 📉 Yield Curve Inversion
**What:**
* 10Y–2Y or 10Y–3M yield < 0
* Indicates the market expects an **economic slowdown**

* 2000–2002
* 2007–2009
* 2022–2023 (with a lag)
**Strength:** ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
**Timing:** Poor for day trading, **excellent for portfolio risk**
---
### 🏦 Credit Spreads (Corporate vs. Treasuries)
**What:**
* Rising spreads = stress in the financial system
* Especially High Yield vs. Treasuries
**History:**
* Early indicator for:
* 2008
* 2020
* 2022
**Strength:** ⭐⭐⭐⭐
**Best for:** Systemic risk detection
---
## 2️⃣ Internal Market Early-Warning Systems (Breadth & Structure)
### 📊 Market Breadth (Advance / Decline)
**Signal:**
* Index makes new highs
* But fewer stocks participate
**Historical warnings:**
* 2000 Dotcom bubble
* 2007
* Late 2021
**Strength:** ⭐⭐⭐⭐
**Very good for:** Swing and position traders
---
### ⚠️ Distribution Days (Stan Weinstein / IBD)
**What:**

* Index ↓
* Volume ↑
**Meaning:**
* Institutions are selling
* Smart money is leaving the market
**Strength:** ⭐⭐⭐⭐
**Timing:** Early to mid-stage
---
## 3️⃣ Volatility-Based Early-Warning Systems
### 📈 VIX + SKEW Combination
**Critical setup:**
* **Low VIX (<15)**
* **High SKEW (>150)**
➡️ The market prices **tail risk**, but not near-term volatility
➡️ Historically a dangerous phase
**Examples:**
* 2018 (Volmageddon)
* 2020 (February)
* 2022 (Q1)
**Strength:** ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
**Ideal for:** Options traders & hedging
---
### 🧠 Volatility Regime Shifts
**Observation:**
* Long low-volatility phases
* → sudden IV expansion
**Warning signal:**
* IV rises
* Prices stagnate or still drift higher
➡️ “Calm before the storm”
---
## 4️⃣ Technical Trend Early-Warning Systems
### 📉 200-Day Moving Average (Used Correctly)
**Better than the classic approach:**
* Combination of:
* Break below the 200 DMA
* Failed rebound
* Rising volume
**History:**
* Very reliable in:
* 2001
* 2008

---
## 5️⃣ Valuation & Sentiment Indicators
### 😈 Extreme Euphoria
**Indicators:**
* Put/Call ratio extremely low
* AAII bullish sentiment > 50%
* Fear & Greed Index > 80
➡️ Not a timing signal

---
## 6️⃣ Combined Models (Most Powerful)
### 🧩 Historically Successful Combinations
| Combination | Implication |
| -------------------------------------- | -------------------- |
| Yield curve + credit spreads | Systemic crisis |
| Breadth divergence + distribution days | Bear market starting |
| Low VIX + high SKEW | Crash risk |
| Rising IV + sideways market | Build hedges |
| Market < 200 DMA + rising volume | Risk-Off |
➡️ **Weak individually – strong in combination**
---
## 7️⃣ The Hard Truth (Very Important)
❌ **No system predicts exact market tops**
✅ Good systems tell you:
> “Risk–reward is now **unfavorable**”
➡️ Professionals:
* Reduce long exposure
* Stop selling volatility
* Build hedges **before** the market drops
---
## 🎯 Practical Application for You (Options Trader)
**If 3–4 of the following occur simultaneously:**
* VIX < 15
* SKEW > 150
* Market breadth deteriorates
* Credit spreads widen
* Index struggles at the 200 DMA
➡️ **No aggressive Wheel strategies**
➡️ Instead focus on:
* Cash
* Call calendars
* Put backspreads
* SPX tail hedges
* Smaller CSP position sizes

Bull Bear Candle Directional Pressure [FXSMARTLAB]Bull–Bear Candle Directional Pressure is a directional market analysis indicator designed to measure the effective pressure exerted by bullish and bearish candles over a given lookback period.
Rather than focusing on momentum, overbought/oversold conditions, or price velocity, it quantifies who is actually in control of price action: buyers or sellers.
🔹 Core Idea
Markets do not move solely because price changes, but because directional pressure is sustained over time.
This indicator evaluates the relative dominance of bullish versus bearish candles, while deliberately excluding neutral candles from the directional calculation.
By doing so, it isolates active participation from indecision and noise, providing a clearer picture of real directional commitment.
🔹 What the Indicator Measures
Bullish candle pressure → buying-side dominance
Bearish candle pressure → selling-side dominance
Neutral candle participation → indecision, balance, or compression
Bull and Bear percentages are normalized only on directional candles, ensuring that the resulting pressure reflects engaged market activity, not low-conviction movement.
🔹 Reading the Indicator
• Centered Histogram (Primary View)
Represents the Bull–Bear pressure balance
Positive values indicate bullish directional pressure
Negative values indicate bearish directional pressure
Greater amplitude reflects stronger dominance
This view is particularly useful for identifying:
Sustained directional control
Progressive shifts in pressure before price acceleration
Structural weakening of trends
• Alternative Views
Dual-line mode compares Bull and Bear pressure directly
Area mode visualizes dominance over time
An optional Neutral pressure line highlights periods where directional participation fades, often preceding consolidation, range expansion, or regime change.

Trading involves risk and past performance does not guarantee future results.
Trend FollowingThis indicator acts as an all-in-one "Head-Up Display" for Swing Trading. It takes complex criteria—trend, volume, volatility, and market strength—and simplifies them into clear visual signals.
🚦 How It Works (The Traffic Light System)
Instead of guessing if a stock is in a valid setup, just look at the background color:
Green Background: The "Context" is good. The stock has ignited, is trending above key moving averages (10/20/50), and is near 52-week highs.
Lime (Bright Green) Background: Elite Setup. The stock has good context AND high Relative Strength vs the S&P 500. These are your A+ candidates.
No Color: The trend is weak or broken. Move on.
🔍 Key Features
1. The "Tightness" Monitor (VCP) Great breakouts happen when volatility dries up (the "calm before the storm").
Blue "T" Label: Marks bars where price range and volume have tightened significantly.
Base Box: Automatically draws a box around the consolidation area so you can see the "Floor" and the "Ceiling" clearly.
2. Pocket Pivots (New in v8.0)
Blue Dots: These signal "Pocket Pivots"—days where institutional buying volume is quietly stepping in before the breakout occurs. Think of these as "footprints" of smart money.
3. Relative Strength (RS) Filter
This doesn't just look at the stock price. It checks if the stock is outperforming the S&P 500 (SPY).
Dashboard Status: Tells you instantly if the RS Rating is "ELITE" (Leaders) or "LAGGING" (Laggards).
4. Safety Checks
Earnings Warning: A dashed yellow line appears if Earnings are less than 5 days away. Don't get caught by surprise!
Surfing Mode: Detects when a stock is "surfing" the 5-day Moving Average for aggressive momentum trades.
🛠 How to Trade With It
Find the Trend: Look for stocks with a Green/Lime Background.
Wait for the Squeeze: Look for Blue "T" labels or the Gray Box to form. This means the stock is resting.
Spot the Entry: Watch for a Blue Dot (Pocket Pivot) for an early entry, or wait for the price to break above the White Breakout Line.
