RED BULL WINGS [JOAT]RED BULL WINGS - Bullish-Only Institutional Overlay
Introduction and Purpose
RED BULL WINGS is an open-source overlay indicator that combines five distinct bullish detection methods into a single composite scoring system. The core problem this indicator solves is that individual bullish signals (patterns, volume, zones, trendlines) often disagree or fire in isolation. A bullish engulfing pattern means little if volume is weak and price is far from support. Traders need confluence across multiple dimensions to identify high-probability setups.
This indicator addresses that by scoring each bullish component separately, then combining them into a weighted WINGS score (0-100) that reflects overall bullish conviction. When multiple components align, the score rises; when they disagree, the score stays low.
Why These Five Modules Work Together
Each module measures a different aspect of bullish market structure:
1. Module A - Bullish Candlestick Engine - Detects classic reversal patterns (engulfing, marubozu, hammer, 3-bar cluster). These patterns identify WHERE buyers are stepping in.
2. Module B - PVSRA Volume Climax - Measures spread x volume to detect institutional participation. This tells you WHETHER smart money is involved.
3. Module C - Demand Zone Detection - Identifies and tracks order block zones where buyers previously overwhelmed sellers. This shows you WHERE institutional support exists.
4. Module D - Trendline Channel - Builds dynamic support/resistance from pivot points. This reveals the STRUCTURE of the current trend.
5. Module E - Ichimoku Assist - Optional filter using Tenkan/Kijun cross, cloud position, and Chikou confirmation. This provides TREND PERMISSION context.
The combination works because:
Patterns alone can fail without volume confirmation
Volume alone means nothing without price structure context
Zones alone are static without pattern/volume triggers
Trendlines alone miss the micro-level entry timing
When 3+ modules agree, the probability of a valid bullish setup increases significantly
How the Calculations Work
Module A - Pattern Detection:
Bullish Engulfing - Current bullish bar completely engulfs prior bearish bar:
bool engulfingCond = isBullish() and
isBearish() and
open <= close and
close >= open and
bodySize() > bodySize()
Marubozu - Strong body with minimal wicks (body >= 1.8x average, wick ratio < 20%):
float wickRatio = candleRange() > 0 ? (upperWick() + lowerWick()) / candleRange() : 0
bool marubozuCond = isBullish() and
bodySize() >= bodySizeAvg * i_maruMult and
wickRatio < i_wickRatioMax
Hammer - Long lower wick (>= 2.5x body), close in upper third, volume confirmation:
bool hammerWick = lowerWick() >= i_hammerWickMult * bodySize()
bool hammerClose = close >= low + (candleRange() * 0.66)
bool hammerVol = volume >= i_pvsraRisingMult * volAvg
3-Bar Cluster - Three consecutive bullish closes with increasing prices and volume spike:
bool threeBarBullish = isBullish() and isBullish() and isBullish()
bool increasingCloses = close > close and close > close
bool volSpike3Bar = volume >= i_pvsraRisingMult * volAvg or
volume >= i_pvsraRisingMult * volAvg
Module B - PVSRA Volume Analysis:
Uses spread x volume to detect climax conditions:
float spreadVol = candleRange() * volume
float maxSpreadVol = ta.highest(spreadVol, ADJ_PVSRA_LOOKBACK)
bool volClimax = volume >= i_pvsraClimaxMult * volAvg or spreadVol >= maxSpreadVol
bool volRising = volume >= i_pvsraRisingMult * volAvg and volume < i_pvsraClimaxMult * volAvg
Volume only scores when the candle is bullish, preventing false signals on bearish volume spikes.
Module C - Demand Zone Detection:
Identifies zones using a two-candle structure:
// Small bearish candle A followed by larger bullish candle B
bool candleA_bearish = isBearish()
bool candleB_bullish = isBullish()
bool newZoneCond = candleA_bearish and candleB_bullish and
candleB_size >= i_zoneSizeMult * candleA_size
Zones are drawn as rectangles and tracked for retests. Score increases when price is near or inside an active zone, with bonus points for rejection candles.
Module D - Trendline Channel:
Builds dynamic channel from confirmed pivot points:
float ph = ta.pivothigh(high, i_pivotLeft, i_pivotRight)
float pl = ta.pivotlow(low, i_pivotLeft, i_pivotRight)
Pivots are stored and connected to form upper/lower channel lines. The indicator detects breakouts when price closes beyond the channel with volume confirmation.
Module E - Ichimoku Assist:
Standard Ichimoku calculations with bullish scoring:
float tenkan = (ta.highest(high, i_tenkanLen) + ta.lowest(low, i_tenkanLen)) / 2
float kijun = (ta.highest(high, i_kijunLen) + ta.lowest(low, i_kijunLen)) / 2
bool tkCross = ta.crossover(tenkan, kijun)
bool priceAboveCloud = close > cloudTop
bool chikouAbovePrice = chikou > close
Module F - WINGS Composite Score:
All module scores are combined using adjustable weights:
float WINGS_score = 100 * (nW_pattern * S_pattern +
nW_volume * S_vol +
nW_zone * S_zone +
nW_trend * S_trend +
nW_ichi * S_ichi)
Default weights: Pattern 30%, Volume 25%, Zone 20%, Trend 15%, Ichimoku 10%.

How to Use This Indicator
For Bullish Entry Identification:
1. Monitor the WINGS badge for score changes
2. Wait for MOMENTUM (50+) or LIFT-OFF (75+) signals
3. Check which modules are contributing (Pattern + Volume + Zone = stronger)
4. Use demand zones and trendlines as structural reference for entries
For Confluence Confirmation:
1. Use alongside your existing analysis
2. LIFT-OFF signals indicate multiple bullish factors aligning
3. Low scores (< 30) suggest weak bullish context even if one factor looks good
For Zone-Based Trading:
1. Watch for price approaching active demand zones
2. Look for pattern + volume confirmation at zone retests
3. Zone score increases with successful retests
For Trendline Analysis:
1. Monitor the pivot-based channel for trend structure
2. Breakouts with volume confirmation trigger TREND BREAK alerts
3. Price inside channel with bullish patterns = trend continuation setup
1M and lower timeframes:
Alerts Available
LIFT-OFF - High-confidence bullish confluence
MOMENTUM - Strong bullish conditions
Zone Retest - Bullish rejection from demand zone
Trendline Break - Breakout with volume confirmation
Individual patterns (Engulfing, Marubozu, Hammer, 3-Bar Cluster)
Volume Climax - Institutional volume spike
DOUBLE WINGS / MEGA WINGS - Consecutive lift-off signals
Repainting Behavior
By default, the indicator uses confirmed bars only (barstate.isconfirmed), meaning signals appear after the bar closes and do not repaint. However:
LIVE MODE - When enabled, signals can appear intrabar but may disappear if conditions change before bar close. A warning label displays when LIVE MODE is active.
Trendlines - Pivot detection requires lookback bars, so the most recent trendline segments may adjust as new pivots confirm. This is inherent to pivot-based analysis.
Demand Zones - Zones are created on confirmed bars and do not repaint, but they can be removed if price closes below the zone bottom (configurable).
Live Mode with 'Enable Visual Effect' turned off in settings:
Limitations
This is a bullish-only indicator. It does not detect bearish setups or provide short signals.
The WINGS score is a confluence measure, not a prediction. High scores indicate favorable conditions, not guaranteed outcomes.
Pattern detection uses simplified logic. Not all candlestick nuances are captured.
Volume analysis requires reliable volume data. Results may vary on instruments with inconsistent volume reporting.
Ichimoku calculations add processing overhead. Disable if not needed.
Demand zones are based on a specific two-candle structure. Other valid zones may not be detected.
Trendlines use linear regression between pivots. Curved or complex channels are not supported.
Timeframe Recommendations
15m-1H: More frequent signals, useful for intraday analysis. Higher noise.
4H-Daily: Best balance of signal quality and frequency for swing trading.
Weekly: Fewer but more significant signals for position trading.
Adjust lookback periods and thresholds based on your timeframe. Shorter timeframes may benefit from shorter lookbacks.

Dynamic Supports + Volume Profile (Smart Time Selector)This indicator is an "All-in-One" tool designed to simplify Market Structure and Volume analysis on higher timeframes (especially Daily charts).
Its main innovation is the **Unique Period Selector**, which automatically adjusts 5 internal parameters (tolerance, pivot sensitivity, resolution, and historical depth) with a single click.
**🛠️ MAIN FEATURES:**
1. **Automatic Engine (1-5 Years):**
* Forget about manually setting pivot lengths or "Lookback".
* Select **"1 Year"**: The script scans for fast pivots and recent volume for *Swing Trading*.
* Select **"5 Years"**: The script filters noise and shows only "Rock-Solid" structures (Historical S/R) for *Long Term Investing*.
2. **"Merged" Support & Resistance (S/R):**
* The script detects Pivot Highs/Lows.
* **Fusion Logic:** If price bounces multiple times in the same zone (within calculated tolerance), the script updates the existing line instead of drawing a new one. It extends the line and counts the touches (e.g., "S (4)" means a Support validated 4 times).
* **Clean Chart:** Avoids visual noise.
3. **Lateral Volume Profile (VP):**
* Displays volume distribution to the right of the current price.
* **Orange POC (Point of Control):** Marks the exact price level with the highest trading volume in the selected period.
**🚀 HOW TO USE (STRATEGY):**
Best used on the **Daily Timeframe (1D)**:
* **Scenario 1: Mean Reversion**
* If price moves far from the **Orange POC**, look for it to act as a magnet.
* Enter when price touches a **Green Line (Support)** that aligns with a high volume node.
* **Scenario 2: Breakout**
* If price breaks a **Red Line (Resistance)** aggressively and the volume above is thin (low volume nodes), the move tends to be fast due to lack of friction.
* **Scenario 3: Multi-Timeframe Analysis**
* Use "5 Years" to mark your long-term zones.
* Switch to "1 Year" for tactical entries.
**🎨 VISUAL SETTINGS:**
* **Green Lines:** Demand Zones (Supports).
* **Red Lines:** Supply Zones (Resistances).
* **Dotted Orange Line:** POC (Fair Value).
* **Blue Bars:** Volume Profile.
**Disclaimer / Descargo:**
This script is designed for educational and analytical purposes on the daily timeframe. Use it to identify zones of interest, not as automatic buy/sell signals.
Minervini Ultimate +VCPMinervini Ultimate Suite (SEPA Dashboard)
This indicator implements Mark Minervini's "Trend Template" criteria combined with a Volatility Contraction Pattern (VCP) detector and a custom Relative Strength rating. It is designed to help traders visualize the technical health of a stock based on stage analysis concepts.
This indicator serves as a complete Control System (Dashboard) for Mark Minervini's SEPA trading strategy. Instead of manually checking five different metrics on every chart, this indicator performs the mathematical calculations and presents the "bottom line" in a single, organized table.
1. What This Indicator Does
The goal is to ensure you never enter a trade blindly. It verifies the stock against Minervini's strict requirements:
Trend: Is the stock in a healthy Stage 2 Uptrend?
Relative Strength: Is it stronger than the general market?
Buy Risk: Is it the right time to buy, or is the price extended?
Pressure: Are institutions accumulating or distributing?
VCP: Is there a breakout opportunity (volatility contraction) right now?
2. Key Benefits
Time-Saving: Instead of drawing lines and calculating percentages manually, you get immediate visual feedback (Green/Red).
Discipline: The indicator will flag "Extended" (Red) if you attempt to buy a stock that has run up too much, saving you from late entries and unnecessary losses.
Precision Timing: The VCP feature (Blue Dots) helps you identify the "calm before the storm"—the exact moment volatility contracts, which often precedes a major breakout.
3. Indicator Parameters & Features
A. Minervini Pressure (Buying vs. Selling)
What it checks: Money flow over the last 20 days.
Calculation: Sums up volume on "Up Days" (Green) versus volume on "Down Days" (Red).
Meaning:
🟢 Buying: More money is entering than leaving. A sign of institutional accumulation.
🔴 Selling: Selling pressure dominates. The price may be rising, but without strong volume backing.
B. Buy Risk (Price Extension)
What it checks: The distance of the current price from the 50-Day Moving Average. Minervini strictly warns against "chasing" stocks.
Signals:
🟢 Low Risk: Price is within 0% – 15% of the 50MA. This is the ideal "Buy Zone".
🟡 Caution: Price is 15% – 25% away. Buy with increased caution.
🔴 Extended: Price is >25% from the MA. Do not buy. The probability of a pullback is high.
⚪ Broken: Price is below the 50MA. The short-term trend is damaged.
C. TPR - Trend Template (Trend Power Rating)
What it checks: Is the stock in a Stage 2 Uptrend?
Strict Rules (All must be true for a PASS):
Price > 50MA > 150MA > 200MA.
The 200MA is trending UP (positive slope).
Price is near the 52-Week High (within 25%).
Price is above the 52-Week Low (at least 25%).
Meaning:
🟢 PASSED: Technically healthy and ready to move.
🔴 FAILED: The trend structure is broken (e.g., MAs are entangled).
D. RPR Score (Relative Performance Rating)
What it checks: How strong the stock is compared to the general market (S&P 500 / SPY).
Calculation: Weighted performance over 3, 6, 9, and 12 months vs. the SPY. The score ranges from 1 to 99.
Meaning:
🟢 80-99: Market Leader. These are the stocks Minervini targets.
🟡 70-80: Good, but not elite.
⚪ Below 70: Laggard (weaker than the market).
E. VCP Action (Volatility Contraction Pattern)
What it checks: Monitors price tightness. It calculates the range between the highest close and lowest close over the last 5 days.
Meaning:
🔵 SQUEEZE (Blue Text + Blue Dot on Chart): The price range has contracted to less than 2.5%.
Why it matters: When a stock stops moving wildly and trades in a tight range ("Flat Line"), it indicates supply has dried up. A high-volume breakout often follows immediately.
Trailing offsetThis indicator draws a horizontal line a fixed distance (ticks) from the latest highest high or lowest low, and then tracks price as it rises higher or drops lower. This is useful, for example, to help track trailing stop levels when manually adjusting trailing stops.
To reduce clutter and minimise confusion you could have two instances of the indicator on your chart at the same time, one configured to only show the trailing level for long trades, and the other for short trades. Then you would show / hide each indicator depending on which direction you enter a trade.
Div for all extThis is an improved indicator. It has been improved by increasing the number of “Check external” functions. Now you can use any custom oscillators with this indicator!

ES Sessions - Asia / London / NY / Break This indicator draws clean, outline-only session boxes for ES futures, covering Asia, London, New York (RTH), Overnight, and the Daily Break.
Most session indicators add too much visual noise. Heavy background shading, overlapping colors, excessive lines, or extra calculations clutter the chart and distract from price. This script is intentionally different.
Each session is displayed as a simple price range outline showing the high and low of the session, with a single label placed at the top center. There is no background shading and no unnecessary highlights or metrics.
Sessions are defined using CME Central Time so they remain accurate, while Trading View automatically converts them to your chart’s local time.
The goal is clarity. See where each session starts and ends, understand its range, and keep the focus on price action without distraction.
Ideal for traders who want structure without clutter.

Market Structure [odnac]Overview
This indicator is a comprehensive tool designed for traders utilizing Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and Price Action. It automatically identifies and labels significant market structure shifts, specifically BOS (Break of Structure) and CHoCH (Change of Character), helping you stay on the right side of the trend.
Key Features
Dual Logic Modes (V1 & V2):
V1 (Fixed Pivot): Only utilizes confirmed pivot points. Ideal for conservative traders looking for major swing levels.
V2 (Dynamic Update): Automatically updates swing points to the actual highest high or lowest low between breaks. This provides a more fluid and accurate representation of price flow.
Smart Confirmation: Unlike basic pivot scripts, this indicator uses a multi-bar confirmation logic (checking candle polarity and close sequences) to filter out market noise and false pivots.
Automatic Trend Detection: The indicator tracks the current market bias (Bullish/Bearish) and visualizes it through customizable background colors or shapes.
Clear Visual Cues: * BOS: Indicates a continuation of the current trend.
CHoCH: Signals a potential trend reversal.
How to Use
Identify Trend Direction: Use the background coloring or the shapes at the bottom to quickly identify if the market is in a Bullish (Green) or Bearish (Red) phase.
Look for Structure Breaks: * When price breaks a previous high/low, the indicator will draw a line and label it as BOS if the trend continues, or CHoCH if the trend flips.
Customize for Your Assets: * For volatile assets like XLM or other cryptocurrencies, you can adjust the Swing Left/Right Bars inputs to filter for either micro-structures or macro-trends.
Input Settings
Version: Choose between V1 (Strict Pivots) and V2 (Dynamic Ranges).
Swing Left/Right Bars: Determines the sensitivity of high/low detection. Increase these values to find "stronger" structural points.
Trend Visualization: Toggle between Background fills, Shape markers at the bottom, or None for a cleaner look.
Show Swings: Toggle the visibility of the white circles marking confirmed pivot points.
Disclaimer
Market structure is a lagging indicator by nature as it requires confirmation. Always use this tool in conjunction with other technical analysis methods (Order Blocks, Fair Value Gaps, or Volume) for the best results.

Current & Prior Day OHLC Levels# Current & Prior Day OHLC Levels with 15-Minute Opening Range
## Overview
This comprehensive indicator plots key price levels for futures and stock traders, displaying Current Day levels, Prior Day levels, and the 15-Minute Opening Range. These levels serve as critical support and resistance zones that professional traders monitor throughout the trading session.
## Key Features
### Current Day Levels (Session-Based)
- **Current Open**: The opening price of the current trading session
- **Current High**: The highest price reached during the current session (updates in real-time)
- **Current Low**: The lowest price reached during the current session (updates in real-time)
The indicator properly recognizes **futures trading sessions**, which begin at their respective session start times (not midnight). For example, most equity index futures sessions begin at 6:00 PM ET the previous day, ensuring accurate session-based tracking for overnight and globex trading.
### Prior Day Levels
- **Prior Open**: Opening price from the previous trading session
- **Prior High**: High of the previous trading session
- **Prior Low**: Low of the previous trading session
- **Prior Close**: Closing price from the previous trading session
Prior day levels are some of the most widely watched technical levels in trading, often acting as psychological support and resistance zones where price action tends to react.
### 15-Minute Opening Range (NY Session)
- **OR High**: The high of the first 15 minutes after New York market open (9:30-9:45 AM ET)
- **OR Low**: The low of the first 15 minutes after New York market open (9:30-9:45 AM ET)
The opening range concept is a popular day trading strategy. The first 15 minutes often establishes the tone for the day, with these levels frequently serving as breakout or breakdown points. The indicator tracks these levels in real-time as they form, then locks them in after 9:45 AM ET.
## Visual Design
### Smart Line Extension
- Lines extend **left** to the exact bar that created each level (e.g., the bar that made the high)
- Lines extend **right** by a configurable number of bars (default: 50 bars)
- No infinite line extension cluttering your chart
### Intelligent Label Placement
- Labels positioned **above** highs and opens
- Labels positioned **below** lows
- Adjustable offset to position labels optimally for your timeframe
- Optional price display in labels (e.g., "Current High: 5,950.00")
- Semi-transparent label backgrounds for clean chart appearance
## Customization Options
### Individual Level Controls
Each level (Current Open, High, Low, Prior Open, High, Low, Close, OR High, OR Low) can be:
- Toggled on/off independently
- Assigned a custom color
- Given its own line style (Solid, Dashed, or Dotted)
- Adjusted for line width (1-5 pixels)
### Default Styling
- **Current Day**: Solid lines (Gold for Open, Green for High, Red for Low)
- **Prior Day**: Dashed lines (Steel Blue for Open, Dark Cyan for High, Crimson for Low, Slate Blue for Close)
- **Opening Range**: Dotted lines (Cyan for High, Tomato for Low)
This default styling provides clear visual distinction between level types while remaining professional and easy to read.
### Label Customization
- Toggle all labels on/off
- Show or hide price values in labels
- Adjust label offset (distance from current bar)
- Five label size options: Tiny, Small, Normal, Large, Huge
### Line Extension Control
- Configurable right extension (0-500 bars)
- Adjust based on your chart timeframe and preference
## Best Use Cases
### Futures Traders
The indicator's session-aware design makes it perfect for futures markets, properly handling:
- Electronic trading hours (Globex)
- Session rollovers at 5:00 PM or 6:00 PM ET (depending on contract)
- Overnight price action
### Day Traders
- Use Opening Range levels for breakout/breakdown strategies
- Monitor Current High/Low for intraday trend identification
- Watch Prior Day levels for profit targets and stop placement
### Swing Traders
- Prior Day High/Low often act as key decision points
- Prior Close serves as an important reference level
- Current Day levels help with intraday entry/exit timing
### Multi-Timeframe Analysis
Works on any intraday timeframe:
- 1-minute for scalping
- 5-minute for active day trading
- 15-minute or 30-minute for swing entries
- 1-hour for position context
## Technical Details
### Session Detection
- Uses TradingView's built-in session detection for accurate daily boundaries
- Properly handles futures contracts with non-midnight session starts
- New York timezone detection for Opening Range (9:30 AM ET)
### Real-Time Updates
- Current High and Low update dynamically as price moves
- Opening Range levels update live during the 9:30-9:45 AM window
- Lines redraw on each bar to maintain accurate positioning
### Performance
- Maximum 500 lines and 500 labels to ensure smooth chart performance
- Efficient line/label deletion and recreation on session changes
- Minimal computational overhead
## Tips for Optimal Use
1. **Adjust Line Extension**: For lower timeframes (1-min, 5-min), reduce right extension to 20-30 bars. For higher timeframes (1-hour), increase to 100+ bars.
2. **Combine with Price Action**: These levels work best when combined with candlestick patterns, volume analysis, and order flow.
3. **Watch for Level Tests**: Price often tests these levels multiple times before breaking through or reversing.
4. **Opening Range Breakouts**: Many traders wait for price to break and close above OR High or below OR Low before entering directional trades.
5. **Prior Day Levels as Targets**: Use Prior High as an upside target and Prior Low as a downside target for intraday trades.
## Compatibility
- Works on all instruments (Futures, Stocks, Forex, Crypto)
- Optimized for intraday timeframes (1-min to 1-hour)
- Best results on liquid instruments with clear session boundaries
- Designed specifically with ES, NQ, YM, and RTY futures traders in mind

ORB Breakout Strategy with VWAP and Volume FiltersOverview
This strategy implements the classic Opening Range Breakout (ORB) methodology, a well-documented approach in trading literature that has been used by institutional and retail traders for decades. The strategy identifies the high and low of the first 15 minutes of the trading session, then trades breakouts with defined risk management.
This implementation includes multiple customizable filters (VWAP, Volume, Candle Strength) that traders can enable, disable, and tune to find configurations that work for their specific markets and trading style.
How It Works
Opening Range Calculation
The strategy captures the high and low of the first N bars after the session open (default: 3 bars on a 5-minute chart = 15 minutes). These levels become the breakout triggers for the session.
Entry Logic
Long Entry: When a bar closes above the ORB High and all enabled filters pass
Short Entry: When a bar closes below the ORB Low and all enabled filters pass
Exit Logic
Take Profit: Configurable multiple of the ORB range (default: 1x = full range beyond breakout level)
Stop Loss: Opposite side of the ORB range
Breakeven: Optional stop adjustment to entry price when trade reaches configurable profit threshold
Session Close: All positions automatically closed at end of trading session
Configurable Filters
All filters can be independently enabled or disabled:
1. VWAP Filter
Requires price above/below session-anchored VWAP
Requires VWAP slope confirmation (configurable lookback and minimum slope)
Purpose: Align trades with intraday trend direction
2. Volume Filter
Requires minimum volume on the breakout bar
Purpose: Confirm institutional participation in the breakout
3. Candle Strength Filter
Requires close in upper/lower portion of the bar range
Purpose: Filter out weak breakouts with poor conviction

Liquidation Map [Alpha Extract]A sophisticated liquidity distribution visualization system that identifies potential liquidation zones through pivot-based detection and renders them as an interactive histogram with cumulative distance-to-liquidation curves. Utilizing multi-exchange volume aggregation and ATR-scaled pocket detection, this indicator delivers institutional-grade liquidity mapping with real-time histogram display showing relative concentration of long and short liquidation levels across configurable price ranges. The system's box-based rendering architecture combined with cumulative distribution overlays provides comprehensive visual assessment of asymmetric liquidity positioning for strategic trade planning.
🔶 Advanced Multi-Exchange Aggregation Framework
Implements intelligent ticker detection and multi-source volume aggregation across major exchanges including Binance, Bybit, KuCoin, OKX, and MEXC for accurate liquidity weight calculations. The system automatically identifies base currency (BTC, ETH, SOL) from chart ticker, retrieves volume data from matching perpetual contracts across multiple venues, and aggregates into composite volume metric for enhanced pocket weighting accuracy.
🔶 Pivot-Based Liquidation Pocket Detection
Features sophisticated swing point identification using configurable pivot width with ATR-scaled vertical zone construction for volatility-adaptive pocket sizing. The system detects pivot highs for short liquidation zones (placed above swing) and pivot lows for long liquidation zones (placed below swing), applying 200-period ATR with percentage multipliers to determine pocket heights that adjust to market volatility conditions.
🔶 Interactive Histogram Visualization Engine
Provides real-time box-based histogram rendering in indicator pane with configurable bin counts (up to 400 columns) and adjustable height, displaying liquidity concentration across fixed percentage range above and below current price. The system calculates bin sizes from view range, accumulates pocket weights into price bins, and renders vertical bars with gradient color intensity reflecting relative liquidity concentration at each price level.
🔶 Cumulative Distance Overlay System
Implements innovative cumulative distribution curves showing aggregate liquidity distance from current price for both long (left) and short (right) positions. The system calculates running totals of pocket weights from current price outward in both directions, normalizes against maximum span, and overlays line segments showing how much total liquidity exists at various distances, enabling instant assessment of liquidation cascade potential.
🔶 Dynamic Price Range Adaptation
Features fixed percentage-based view window that maintains consistent price range visualization across all timeframes and instruments, automatically centering histogram on current price with configurable +/- percentage bounds. The system recalculates histogram bins and pocket distributions on each bar close, ensuring visualization adapts to price movement while maintaining interpretable scale regardless of volatility regime.
🔶 Touch Detection and Weight Adjustment
Provides intelligent pocket state tracking that identifies when price trades through liquidation zones and applies configurable weight multipliers to touched pockets for historical context. The system monitors price interaction with pocket midpoints, marks pockets as "hit" when violated, and optionally increases their visual weight (default 5x) to emphasize historical liquidation levels while distinguishing from untouched future zones.
🔶 Gradient Intensity Color System
Implements sophisticated color gradient engine that modulates bar opacity from transparent to opaque based on relative liquidity concentration within each bin. The system normalizes bin values against maximum liquidity, applies color interpolation from faded to vivid hues, and distinguishes long liquidation zones (cyan) from short liquidation zones (yellow/gold) with current price column highlighted in red for instant orientation.
🔶 Performance-Optimized Rendering Architecture
Utilizes efficient box and line object management with dynamic allocation based on histogram configuration, implementing intelligent cleanup and reuse to maintain smooth performance. The system includes adaptive line budget calculations that adjust segment density for cumulative curves based on available object limits, ensuring consistent operation even with maximum histogram resolution settings.
🔶 Asymmetric Distribution Analysis
Calculates separate cumulative distributions for long and short liquidation zones split at current price, enabling identification of imbalanced liquidity positioning. The system normalizes distributions against respective maximums and overlays both curves on single histogram, allowing traders to instantly assess whether more liquidation risk exists above (shorts vulnerable) or below (longs vulnerable) current price levels.
🔶 Configurable Label and Scale System
Provides price axis labeling with adjustable frequency to reduce clutter while maintaining reference points, displaying price values at regular column intervals with configurable offset positioning. The system includes current price label showing exact value and percentile position within view range, offering both absolute price reference and relative positioning context for distribution interpretation.
🔶 Historical Pocket Persistence Framework
Maintains rolling window of liquidation pockets up to 3000 bars with automatic expiration management and optional preservation of touched zones for historical analysis. The system tracks pocket creation time, monitors age against lookback limits, and manages array cleanup to prevent memory overflow while retaining relevant historical liquidation levels for pattern recognition and support/resistance validation.
This indicator delivers sophisticated liquidity distribution analysis through histogram visualization and cumulative distance curves that reveal asymmetric positioning of potential liquidation levels. Unlike simple liquidation heatmaps that show absolute levels, the Liquidation Map's cumulative distribution overlays instantly communicate how much total liquidity exists at various distances from current price, enabling assessment of cascade potential. The system's multi-exchange volume aggregation, touch-weighted historical zones, and fixed-range visualization make it essential for traders seeking strategic positioning around institutional liquidity clusters in cryptocurrency futures markets. The histogram format enables instant identification of price levels where concentrated liquidations may trigger significant volatility or reversal events, while the asymmetric distribution curves reveal whether market structure favors upside or downside cascades.
Golder/Silter SetupsGolden/Silver Strategy
Overview
The Tony Rago Golden/Silver Strategy is a high-precision mean-reversion system specifically engineered for the Nasdaq (NQ/MNQ). It leverages the psychological 100-point price blocks to identify institutional exhaustion and reversal points.
Unlike standard "grid" bots, this strategy uses a sophisticated "Arm & Fire" logic: it requires a specific price "touch" to arm the setup, followed by a retracement to a "Golden" entry level to execute.
Key Logic: The 100-Point Grid
The strategy divides price action into 100-point blocks (e.g., 19500 to 19600).
Golden Setup (Long): Triggered when price touches the 50 level (mid-point). The order is placed at the 26 level on the retracement.
Silver Setup (Short): Triggered when price touches the 00 or 100 levels (block boundaries). The order is placed at the 77 or 26 levels on the retracement.
Professional Risk Management
This edition features a Dual-Contract Management system designed for Prop Firm consistency:
Contract 1 (The Scalp): Aims for a quick 24-point target (TP1) to secure realized gains and cover costs.
Contract 2 (The Runner): Stays in the trade for an extended 51-point target (TP2).
Automated Break-Even (BE): The moment TP1 is hit, the Stop Loss for the Runner is automatically moved to the entry price (plus a small offset). This ensures a "risk-free" environment for the remainder of the trade.
Independent Stop Losses: The Scalp and the Runner use different SL distances to account for Nasdaq volatility, preventing a single "noise" wick from wiping out the entire position.
Intelligent Filters
ADX Range Filter: The strategy monitors market trend strength. It only allows trades when the ADX is below a user-defined threshold (default 25), ensuring you only play mean-reversion during ranging or "choppy" markets.
MA Visual Semaphor: The 50 EMA changes color dynamically based on ADX (Lime/Green for Range, Orange/Red for Trend), giving you an instant visual "Go/No-Go" signal.
Time-Session Filtering: Optimized for three custom sessions (NY Open, Mid-Day Reversal, and Late Night). Outside these sessions, the strategy can "Arm" setups in memory but will not "Fire" orders.
How to Use
Timeframe: Optimized for 1-Minute or 2-Minute charts for precision entry.
Asset: Nasdaq 100 (NQ, MNQ) or similar high-volatility indices.
Setup: * Enable Session Filters to avoid news volatility.
Adjust TP/SL in Points (1 Point = 4 Ticks) to suit your specific risk appetite.
Watch for the "Armados" labels—these indicate the system is ready and waiting for the Golden/Silver entry.
Visual Interface
Dynamic Boxes: Real-time visual representation of your TP1, TP2, and SL levels.
Activation Labels: Clear indications of when a Long or Short setup has been "Armed" in memory.
Status Dashboard: A clean top-right table showing current ADX values, Session status, and Risk settings.
Disclaimer
Trading involves significant risk. This strategy is a tool for decision support and backtesting. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always test on a demo account before risking live capital.
Weekly Levels: High/Low/Mid/POCThis is a simple indicator that plots each week (up to 4 weeks) with the high,low, mid point and a customizable POC. Weeks can be toggled on and off and it has a developing level for the current week.
I find these levels valuable in day trading and thought automating them would be ideal.
PAE - Price Action Essential**PAE - Price Action Essential** indicator.
This system is engineered to provide high-fidelity market structure readings, blending moving average harmony with algorithmic volume analysis at critical turning points.
---
## 1. Indicator Philosophy
**PAE** operates under the **"Signal over Noise"** principle. Its goal is to declutter the chart of visual distractions, highlighting only the areas where true confluence exists between price action and institutional effort (volume).
---
## 2. Moving Average Dynamics & Action Zone
The system utilizes a hierarchy of four moving averages to segment market flow:
### A. The Action Zone (Short-Term)
This is generated via a dynamic shading between the **Fast MA (9)** and the **Base MA (20)**.
* **Configuration:** Allows the user to select the calculation type (EMA, SMA, WMA, HMA) for both averages simultaneously.
* **Fast MA Colors:**
* `#a5d6a7` (Soft Green) during ascending values.
* `#faa1a4` (Soft Red) during descending values.
* **Purpose:** The shaded area acts as a "value band." Pullbacks into this zone during defined trends often offer the highest probability entry opportunities.
### B. Structural MAs (Mid & Long-Term)
These averages are fixed to **SMA** type to maintain stability in trend analysis:
* **Medium SMA (40):** Uses vibrant colors (**#3179f5** Blue / **#ffee58** Yellow) to clearly mark the primary direction of the current swing.
* **Slow SMA (200):** Uses pastel tones (**#90bff9** / **#fff9c4**) and a dotted style to define the long-term institutional bias.
---
## 3. Pivot Analysis with Smart Volume
**PAE** identifies fractals (Highs and Lows) and automatically classifies them based on their **Relative Volume** compared to the previous 20 candles.
### Visual Classification by Color
To ensure rapid interpretation, labels are set to **Tiny** size, with color serving as the primary data indicator:
| Pivot Type | Color | Volume Condition | Interpretation |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **Strength (MAX)** | `#ff001e` (Bright Red) | `> 160%` of Avg | High-conviction resistance. |
| **Strength (MIN)** | `#0fa600` (Bright Green) | `> 160%` of Avg | High-conviction support. |
| **Base (MAX)** | `#f1adad` (Soft Rose) | Between `30%` - `160%` | Standard market structure. |
| **Base (MIN)** | `#bee7c0` (Soft Mint) | Between `30%` - `160%` | Standard market structure. |
| **Noise** | `#ffffff` (White 67% Transp.) | `< 30%` of Avg | Weak pivots or lack of interest. |
---
## 4. Contextual Information (Tooltips)
Every Pivot label is interactive. By hovering the cursor over the triangles, the trader obtains precise data:
* **Price:** Indicates the exact **Closing** value of the candle that triggered the pivot (MAX or Min).
* **Vol:** Displays the exact percentage of relative volume. For example, a value of **200%** confirms that the candle had double the average volume, validating the strength of that support or resistance level.
---
## 5. Recommended Configuration Parameters
* **Left/Right Bars (3):** The ideal balance between early detection and swing confirmation.
* **Strength Factor (1.60):** Filters for movements backed by professional intent.
* **Noise Factor (0.30):** Identifies exhaustion or lack of participation.
---
### Operational Summary
The **PAE** helps traders stop guessing. If the price reaches the **Action Zone** (shading) and coincides with a **Strength Pivot** (bright color), the probability of a reaction in favor of the trend is significantly high. It is a precision tool designed for traders seeking absolute clarity in their decision-making process.
