Camarilla Pivot Plays█ OVERVIEW
This indicator implements the Camarilla Pivot Points levels and a system for suggesting particular plays. It only calculates and shows the 3rd, 4th, and 6th levels, as these are the only ones used by the system. In total, there are 12 possible plays, grouped into two groups of six. The algorithm constantly evaluates conditions for entering and exiting the plays and indicates them in real time, also triggering user-configurable alerts.
█ CREDITS
The Camarilla pivot plays are defined in a strategy developed by Thor Young, and the whole system is explained in his book "A Complete Day Trading System" . The indicator is published with his permission, and he is a user of it. The book is not necessary in order to understand and use the indicator; this description contains sufficient information to use it effectively.
█ FEATURES
Automatically draws plays, suggesting an entry, stop-loss, and maximum target
User can set alerts on chosen ticker to call these plays, even when not currently viewing them
Highly configurable via many options
Works for US/European stocks and US futures (at least)
Works correctly on both RTH and ETH charts
Automatically switches between RTH and ETH data
Optionally also shows the "other" set of pivots (RTH vs ETH data)
Configurable behaviour in the pre-market, not active in the post-market
Configurable sensitivity of the play detection algorithm
Can also show weekly and monthly Camarilla pivots
Well-documented options tooltips
Sensible defaults which are suitable for immediate use
Well-documented and high-quality open-source code for those who are interested
█ HOW TO USE
The defaults work well; at a minimum, just add the indicator and watch the plays being called. To avoid having to watch securities, by selecting the three dots next to the indicator name, you can set an alert on the indicator and choose to be alerted on play entry or exit events—or both. The following diagram shows several plays activated in the past (with the "Show past plays" option selected).
By default, the indicator draws plays 5 days back; this can be changed up to 20 days. The labels can be shifted left/right using the "label offset" option to avoid overlapping with other labels in this indicator or those of another indicator.
An information box at the top-right of the chart shows:
The data currently in use for the main pivots. This can switch in the pre-market if the H/L range exceeds the previous day's H/L, and if it does, you will see that switch at the time that it happens
Whether the current day's pivots are in a higher or lower range compared to the previous day's. This is based on the RTH close, so large moves in the post-market won't be reflected (there is an advanced option to change this)
The width of the value relationship in the current day compared to the previous day
The currently active play. If multiple plays are active in parallel, only the last activated one is shown
The resistance pivots are all drawn in the same colour (red by default), as are the support pivots (green by default). You can change the resistance and support colours, but it is not possible to have different colours for different levels of the same kind. Plays will always use the correct colour, drawing over the pivots. For example, R4 is red by default, but if a play treats R4 as a support, then the play will draw a green line (by default) over the red R4 line, thereby hiding it while the play is active.
There are a few advanced parameters; leave these as default unless you really know what they do. Please note the script is complicated—it does a lot. You might need to wait a few seconds while it (re)calculates on new tickers or when changing options. Give it time when first loading or changing options!
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator is focused around daily Camarilla pivots and implements 12 possible plays: 6 when in a higher range, 6 when in a lower range. The plays are labelled by two letters—the first indicates the range, the second indicates the play—as shown in this diagram:
The pivots can be calculated using only RTH (Regular Trading Hours) data, or ETH (Extended Trading Hours) data, which includes the pre-market and post-market. The indicator implements logic to automatically choose the correct data, based on the rules defined by the strategy. This is user-overridable. With the default options, ETH will be used when the H/L range in the previous day's post-market or current day's pre-market exceeds that of the previous day's regular market. In auto mode, the chosen pivots are considered the main pivots for that day and are the ones used for play evaluation. The "other" pivots can also be shown—"other" here meaning using ETH data when the main pivots use RTH data, and vice versa.
When displaying plays in the pre-market, since the RTH open is not yet known (and that value is needed to evaluate play pre-conditions), the pre-market open is used as a proxy for the RTH open. After the regular market opens, the correct RTH open is used to evaluate play conditions.
█ NOTE FOR FUTURES
Futures always use full ETH data in auto mode. Users may, however, wish to use the option "Always use RTH close," which uses the 3 p.m. Central Time (CME/Chicago) as a basis for the close in the pivot calculations (instead of the 4 p.m. actual close).
Futures don't officially have a pre-market or post-market like equities. Let's take ES on CME as an example (CME is in Chicago, so all times are Central Time, i.e., 1 hour behind Eastern Time). It trades from 17:00 Sunday to 16:00 Friday, with a daily pause between 16:00 and 17:00. However, most of the trading activity is done between 08:30 and 15:00 (Central), which you can tell from the volume spikes at those times, and this coincides with NYSE/NASDAQ regular hours (09:30–16:00 Eastern). So we define a pseudo-pre-market from 17:00 the previous day to 08:30 on the current day, then a pseudo-regular market from 08:30 to 15:00, then a pseudo-post-market from 15:00 to 16:00.
The indicator then works exactly the same as with equities—all the options behave the same, just with different session times defined for the pre-, regular, and post-market, with "RTH" meaning just the regular market and "ETH" meaning all three. The only difference from equities is that the auto calculation mode always uses ETH instead of switching based on ETH range compared to RTH range. This is so users who just leave all the defaults are not confused by auto-switching of the calculation mode; normally you'll want the pivots based on all the (ETH) data. However, both "Force RTH" and "Use RTH close with ETH data" work the same as with equities—so if, in the calculations, you really want to only use RTH data, or use all ETH H/L data but use the RTH close (at 15:00), you can.
█ LIMITATIONS
The pivots are very close to those shown in DAS Trader Pro. They are not to-the-cent exact, but within a few cents. The reasons are:
TradingView uses real-time data from CBOE One, so doesn't have access to full exchange data (unless you pay for it in TradingView), and
the close/high/low are taken from the intraday timeframe you are currently viewing, not daily data—which are very close, but often not exactly the same. For example, the high on the daily timeframe may differ slightly from the daily high you'll see on an intraday timeframe.
I have occasionally seen larger than a few cents differences in the pivots between these and DAS Trader Pro—this is always due to differences in data, for example a big spike in the data in TradingView but not in DAS Trader Pro, or vice versa. The more traded the stock is, the less the difference tends to be. Highly traded stocks are usually within a few cents. Less traded stocks may be more (for example, 30¢ difference in R4 is the highest I've seen). If it bothers you, official NYSE/NASDAQ data in TradingView is quite inexpensive (but even that doesn't make the 8am candle identical).
The 6th Camarilla level does not have a standard definition and may not match the level shown on other platforms. It does match the definition used by DAS Trader Pro.
The indicator is an intraday indicator (despite also being able to show weekly and monthly pivots on an intraday chart). It deactivates on a daily timeframe and higher. It is untested on sub-minute timeframes; you may encounter runtime errors on these due to various historical data referencing issues. Also, the play detection algorithm would likely be unpredictable on sub-minute timeframes. Therefore, sub-minute timeframes are formally unsupported.
The indicator was developed and tested for US/European stocks and US futures. It may or may not work as intended for stocks and futures in different locations. It does not work for other security types (e.g., crypto), where I have no evidence that the strategy has any relevance.

Multi-VWAP System🚀 Multi-VWAP System — Anchored VWAP & Deviation Bands
Overview
The Multi-VWAP System provides traders with a professional-grade approach to anchored VWAP analysis. Inspired by Brian Shannon's pioneering work on Anchored VWAP, this indicator automatically calculates and plots:
Current Session VWAP
Previous Session VWAP (also known as "2-Day VWAP")
High-of-Day (HOD) Anchored VWAP
Each VWAP can also display optional Standard Deviation Bands to highlight statistically significant deviations from the volume-weighted average price.
🔍 Why Anchored VWAP Matters
Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) is among the most critical institutional indicators, as it represents the average price paid for a stock adjusted by trading volume. This makes VWAP crucial for identifying fair value and significant areas of institutional activity.
Institutions utilize VWAP extensively to guide their execution algorithms. For instance, if price dips below a 2-day anchored VWAP (anchored to the previous session's open), many institutions interpret this as a discounted entry, potentially triggering large-scale buy programs. Conversely, sustained movement above VWAP signals strong buying pressure and bullish sentiment.
📌 Why Multiple Anchors?
Traders commonly anchor VWAPs at critical reference points:
Current Session VWAP:
Essential for day traders as a reference for intraday sentiment. Price action above this line generally indicates bullish sentiment, while price below signals bearish sentiment.
Previous Session (2-Day) VWAP:
Heavily used by institutions and swing traders, it provides insight into multi-session sentiment. Institutions commonly activate buy or sell programs based on whether price is trading at a premium or discount relative to this VWAP.
High-of-Day (HOD) VWAP:
Frequently used by momentum traders, this anchor captures sentiment after the most recent intraday high. Price above the HOD VWAP suggests sustained bullish momentum, while price below might signal weakening momentum.
🌟 Standard Deviation Bands
Each anchored VWAP in this indicator includes optional Standard Deviation Bands, highlighting statistical extremes. Traders use these bands to:
Identify potentially overextended moves (beyond +2σ or +3σ).
Gauge momentum strength (holding above +1σ).
Spot mean-reversion setups when price returns to VWAP after extreme moves.
🎨 Dynamic Background and Momentum Colorization
To visually highlight strength or weakness in price action relative to VWAP:
Dynamic Background Fill between Current and Previous VWAPs:
Green background appears when the Current VWAP is above the Previous VWAP and the linear regression slope (adjustable length) is positive, indicating bullish sentiment.
Red background appears when the Current VWAP is below the Previous VWAP and the slope is negative, indicating bearish sentiment.
No fill when conditions are mixed or momentum is uncertain.
Gold Fill above HOD VWAP:
When price action is above the High-of-Day VWAP and momentum (linear regression slope) is positive, a subtle gold shading appears, quickly highlighting bullish momentum.
⚙ Fully Customizable Settings
Session Times: Adjust session start and end times to match your specific market hours.
Standard Deviation Bands: Enable or disable each VWAP’s deviation bands individually and select how many bands (1σ, 2σ, or 3σ) you'd like to display.
Momentum Slope Length: Adjustable lookback for linear regression slope calculation—giving you full control of trend sensitivity.
🎯 Who Should Use This Indicator?
This indicator is perfect for:
Day Traders who want quick insights into intraday sentiment shifts.
Swing Traders tracking institutional footprints and seeking optimal entry/exit points.
Momentum Traders who rely on clearly visible momentum signals from HOD anchored VWAPs.
Institutional Traders and Professionals seeking sophisticated, institutionally-inspired VWAP analysis without manual anchoring.
📈 Summary of Features
✅ Automatic VWAP Anchors (Current Session, Previous Session, High-of-Day)
✅ Optional Standard Deviation Bands for each VWAP anchor
✅ Dynamic Background Coloring based on price action and momentum conditions
✅ Gold Momentum Highlight for quick bullish momentum identification above HOD VWAP
✅ Fully Customizable Inputs for precise personalization and flexibility
📢 Conclusion
The Multi-VWAP System isn't just another VWAP indicator. It's an institutional-level, dynamic, multi-dimensional analysis tool inspired by the work of Brian Shannon and leading institutional traders. It takes the guesswork out of anchoring and analysis, leaving you free to focus on identifying and executing high-probability trade setups.
Enjoy trading smarter—not harder. Happy Trading! 🚀📊
Adaptive ATR Limits█ OVERVIEW
This indicator plots adaptive ATR limits for intraday trading. A key feature of this indicator, which makes it different from other ATR limit indicators, is that the top and bottom ATR limit lines are always exactly one ATR apart from each other (in "auto" mode; there is also a "basic" mode, which plots the limits in the more traditional way—i.e., one ATR above the low and one ATR below the high at all times—and this can be used for comparison).
█ FEATURES
Provides an algorithm to plot the most reasonable intraday ATR top/bottom limits based on currently available information
Dynamically adapts limits as the price evolves during the day
Works correctly and consistently on both RTH and ETH charts
Has a user-selected ADR mode to base the limits on ADR instead of ATR
Option to include the current pre-market and previous day's post-market range in the calculation
Configurable ATR/ADR averaging length
Provides a visual smoothing option
Provides an information box showing the current numerical ATR/ADR values
Reasonable defaults that work well if the user changes nothing
Well-documented, high-quality, open-source code for those interested
█ HOW TO USE
At a minimum, there is nothing that needs to be set. The defaults work well. The ATR top line (red, configurable) gives you the most reasonable move given the currently available information. The line will move away from the price as the price approaches it; that is normal—it is reacting to new information. This happens until the ATR bottom limit hits the lower of the daily low and the previous day's close (in ATR mode). The ATR bottom line (green, configurable) works the same way, with reversed logic.
There is an option to use ADR instead of ATR. The ATR includes the previous day's RTH close in the range, whereas ADR does not. Another option allows the user to add the current day's pre-market range or the previous day's post-market into the current day's range, which has an effect if either of those went outside of today's RTH range, plus yesterday's RTH close (in the default ATR mode). Pre-market and post-market range is not typically included in the daily true range, so only change it if you really know you want it.
█ CONCEPTS
Most traditional ATR limit indicators plot the top ATR limit one ATR above the current daily low, and the bottom ATR limit one ATR below the current daily high. This indicator can also do that (in "basic" mode), but its value lies in its default "auto" mode, which uses an algorithm to dynamically adapt the ATR limits throughout the day, keeping them one ATR apart at all times. It tries to plot the most sensible ATR limits based on the current daily ATR, in order to provide a reasonable visual intraday target, given the available information at that point in time.
"Auto" mode is actually a weighted average of two methods: midpoint and relative (both of which can also be explicitly selected). The midpoint method places the midpoint of the ATR limit equal to the midpoint of the currently established daily range. The relative method measures the currently established daily range and calculates the position of the current price within it (as a ratio between 0 and 1). It then uses that value as a weight in a weighted average of extreme locations for the ATR limits, which are: the ATR top anchored to one ATR above the daily low, and the ATR bottom anchored to one ATR below the daily high.
The relative method is more advanced and better for most of the day; however, it can cause wild swings in the early market or pre-market before a reasonable range (as a percentage of ATR) has been established. "Auto" mode therefore takes another weighted average between the two methods, with the weight determined by the percentage of the ATR currently established within the day, more strongly weighting the calmer midpoint method before a good range is established. Once the full ATR has been achieved, the algorithm in "auto" mode will have fully switched to the relative method and will remain with that method for the rest of the day.
To explain the effect further, as an example, imagine that the price is approaching the full ATR range on the high side. At this point, the indicator will have almost fully transitioned to the second (relative) method. The lower ATR limit will now be anchored to the daily low as the price hits the upper ATR limit. If the price goes beyond the upper ATR, the lower ATR limit will stay anchored to the daily low, and the upper limit will stay anchored to one ATR above the lower limit. This allows you to see how far the price is going beyond the upper ATR limit. If the price then returns and backs off the upper ATR limit, the lower ATR limit will un-anchor from the daily low (it will actually rise, since the daily ATR range has been exceeded, so the lower ATR limit needs to come up because the actual daily range can’t fit into the ATR range anymore). The overall effect is to give you the best visual indication of where the price is in relation to a possible upper ATR-based target. Reverse this example for when the price low approaches the ATR range on the low side.
Care was taken so that the code uses no hard-coded time zones, exchanges, or session times. For this reason, it can in principle work globally. However, it very much depends on the information provided by the exchange, which is reflected in built-in Pine Script variables (see Limitations below).
█ LIMITATIONS
The indicator was developed for US/European equities and is tested on them only. It is also known to work on US futures; in this case, the whole 23-hour session is used, and the "Sessions to include in range" setting has no effect. It may or may not work as intended on security types and equities/futures for other countries.
Time-Based Fair Value Gaps (FVG) with Inversions (iFVG)Overview
The Time-Based Fair Value Gaps (FVG) with Inversions (iFVG) (ICT/SMT) indicator is a specialized tool designed for traders using Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodologies. Inspired by LuxAlgo's Fair Value Gap indicator, this script introduces significant enhancements by integrating ICT principles, focusing on precise time-based FVG detection, inversion tracking, and retest signals tailored for institutional trading strategies. Unlike LuxAlgo’s general FVG approach, this indicator filters FVGs within customizable 10-minute windows aligned with ICT’s macro timeframes and incorporates ICT-specific concepts like mitigation, liquidity grabs, and session-based gap prioritization.
This tool is optimized for 1–5 minute charts, though probably best for 1 minute charts, identifying bullish and bearish FVGs, tracking their mitigation into inverted FVGs (iFVGs) as key support/resistance zones, and generating retest signals with customizable “Close” or “Wick” confirmation. Features like ATR-based filtering, optional FVG labels, mitigation removal, and session-specific FVG detection (e.g., first FVG in AM/PM sessions) make it a powerful tool for ICT traders.
Originality and Improvements
While inspired by LuxAlgo’s FVG indicator (credit to LuxAlgo for their foundational work), this script significantly extends the original concept by:
1. Time-Based FVG Detection: Unlike LuxAlgo’s continuous FVG identification, this script filters FVGs within user-defined 10-minute windows each hour (:00–:10, :10–:20, etc.), aligning with ICT’s emphasis on specific periods of institutional activity, such as hourly opens/closes or kill zones (e.g., New York 7:00–11:00 AM EST). This ensures FVGs are relevant to high-probability ICT setups.
2. Session-Specific First FVG Option: A unique feature allows traders to display only the first FVG in ICT-defined AM (9:30–10:00 AM EST) or PM (1:30–2:00 PM EST) sessions, reflecting ICT’s focus on initial market imbalances during key liquidity events.
3. ICT-Driven Mitigation and Inversion Logic: The script tracks FVG mitigation (when price closes through a gap) and converts mitigated FVGs into iFVGs, which serve as ICT-style support/resistance zones. This aligns with ICT’s view that mitigated gaps become critical reversal points, unlike LuxAlgo’s simpler gap display.
4. Customizable Retest Signals: Retest signals for iFVGs are configurable for “Close” (conservative, requiring candle body confirmation) or “Wick” (faster, using highs/lows), catering to ICT traders’ need for precise entry timing during liquidity grabs or Judas swings.
5. ATR Filtering and Mitigation Removal: An optional ATR filter ensures only significant FVGs are displayed, reducing noise, while mitigation removal declutters the chart by removing filled gaps, aligning with ICT’s principle that mitigated gaps lose relevance unless inverted.
6. Timezone and Timeframe Safeguards: A timezone offset setting aligns FVG detection with EST for ICT’s New York-centric strategies, and a timeframe warning alerts users to avoid ≥1-hour charts, ensuring accuracy in time-based filtering.
These enhancements make the script a distinct tool that builds on LuxAlgo’s foundation while offering ICT traders a tailored, high-precision solution.
How It Works
FVG Detection
FVGs are identified when a candle’s low is higher than the high of two candles prior (bullish FVG) or a candle’s high is lower than the low of two candles prior (bearish FVG). Detection is restricted to:
• User-selected 10-minute windows (e.g., :00–:10, :50–:60) to capture ICT-relevant periods like hourly transitions.
• AM/PM session first FVGs (if enabled), focusing on 9:30–10:00 AM or 1:30–2:00 PM EST for key market opens.
An optional ATR filter (default: 0.25× ATR) ensures only gaps larger than the threshold are displayed, prioritizing significant imbalances.
Mitigation and Inversion
When price closes through an FVG (e.g., below a bullish FVG’s bottom), the FVG is mitigated and becomes an iFVG, plotted as a support/resistance zone. iFVGs are critical in ICT for identifying reversal points where institutional orders accumulate.
Retest Signals
The script generates signals when price retests an iFVG:
• Close: Triggers when the candle body confirms the retest (conservative, lower noise).
• Wick: Triggers when the candle’s high/low touches the iFVG (faster, higher sensitivity). Signals are visualized with triangular markers (▲ for bullish, ▼ for bearish) and can trigger alerts.
Visualization
• FVGs: Displayed as colored boxes (green for bullish, red for bearish) with optional “Bull FVG”/“Bear FVG” labels.
• iFVGs: Shown as extended boxes with dashed midlines, limited to the user-defined number of recent zones (default: 5).
• Mitigation Removal: Mitigated FVGs/iFVGs are removed (if enabled) to keep the chart clean.
How to Use
Recommended Settings
• Timeframe: Use 1–5 minute charts for precision, avoiding ≥1-hour timeframes (a warning label appears if misconfigured).
• Time Windows: Enable :00–:10 and :50–:60 for hourly open/close FVGs, or use the “Show only 1st presented FVG” option for AM/PM session focus.
• ATR Filter: Keep enabled (multiplier 0.25–0.5) for significant gaps; disable on 1-minute charts for more FVGs during volatility.
• Signal Preference: Use “Close” for conservative entries, “Wick” for aggressive setups.
• Timezone Offset: Set to -5 for EST (or -4 for EDT) to align with ICT’s New York session.
Trading Strategy
1. Macro Timeframes: Focus on New York (7:00–11:00 AM EST) or London (2:00–5:00 AM EST) kill zones for high institutional activity.
2. FVG Entries: Trade bullish FVGs as support in uptrends or bearish FVGs as resistance in downtrends, especially in :00–:10 or :50–:60 windows.
3. iFVG Retests: Enter on retest signals (▲/▼) during liquidity grabs or Judas swings, using “Close” for confirmation or “Wick” for speed.
4. Session FVGs: Use the “Show only 1st presented FVG” option to target the first gap in AM/PM sessions, often tied to ICT’s market maker algorithms.
5. Risk Management: Combine with ICT concepts like order blocks or breaker blocks for confluence, and set stops beyond FVG/iFVG boundaries.
Alerts
Set alerts for:
• “Bullish FVG Detected”/“Bearish FVG Detected”: New FVGs in selected windows.
• “Bullish Signal”/“Bearish Signal”: iFVG retest confirmations.
Settings Description
• Show Last (1–100, default: 5): Number of recent iFVGs to display. Lower values reduce clutter.
• Show only 1st presented FVG : Limits FVGs to the first in 9:30–10:00 AM or 1:30–2:00 PM EST sessions (overrides time window checkboxes).
• Time Window Checkboxes: Enable/disable FVG detection in 10-minute windows (:00–:10, :10–:20, etc.). All enabled by default.
• Signal Preference: “Close” (default) or “Wick” for iFVG retest signals.
• Use ATR Filter: Enables ATR-based size filtering (default: true).
• ATR Multiplier (0–∞, default: 0.25): Sets FVG size threshold (higher values = larger gaps).
• Remove Mitigated FVGs: Removes filled FVGs/iFVGs (default: true).
• Show FVG Labels: Displays “Bull FVG”/“Bear FVG” labels (default: true).
• Timezone Offset (-12 to 12, default: -5): Aligns time windows with EST.
• Colors: Customize bullish (green), bearish (red), and midline (gray) colors.
Why Use This Indicator?
This indicator empowers ICT traders with a tool that goes beyond generic FVG detection, offering precise, time-filtered gaps and inversion tracking aligned with institutional trading principles. By focusing on ICT’s macro timeframes, session-specific imbalances, and customizable signal logic, it provides a clear edge for scalping, swing trading, or reversal setups in high-liquidity markets.
Volume-Weighted Pivot BandsThe Volume-Weighted Pivot Bands are meant to be a dynamic, rolling pivot system designed to provide traders with responsive support and resistance levels that adapt to both price volatility and volume participation. Unlike traditional daily pivot levels, this tool recalculates levels bar-by-bar using a rolling window of volume-weighted averages, making it highly relevant for intraday traders, scalpers, swing traders, and algorithmic systems alike.
-- What This Indicator Does --
This tool calculates a rolling VWAP-based pivot level, and surrounds that central pivot with up to five upper bands (R1–R5) and five lower bands (S1–S5). These act as dynamic zones of potential resistance (R) and support (S), adapting in real time to price and volume changes.
Rather than relying on static session or daily data, this indicator provides continually evolving levels, offering more relevant levels during sideways action, trending periods, and breakout conditions.
-- How the Bands Are Calculated --
Pivot (VWAP Pivot):
The core of this system is a rolling Volume-Weighted Average Price, calculated over a user-defined window (default 20 bars). This ensures that each bar’s price impact is weighted by its volume, giving a more accurate view of fair value during the selected lookback.
Volume-Weighted Range (VW Range):
The highest high and lowest low over the same window are used to calculate the volatility range — this acts as a spread factor.
Support & Resistance Bands (S1–S5, R1–R5):
The bands are offset above and below the pivot using multiples of the VW Range:
R1 = Pivot + (VW Range × multiplier)
R2 = R1 + (VW Range × multiplier)
R3 = R2 + (VW Range x multiplier)
...
S1 = Pivot − (VW Range × multiplier)
S2 = S1 − (VW Range × multiplier)
S3 = S2 - (VW Range x multiplier)
...
You can control the multiplier manually (default is 0.25), to widen or tighten band spacing.
Smoothing (Optional):
To prevent erratic movements, you can optionally toggle on/off a simple moving average to the pivot line (default length = 20), providing a smoother trend base for the bands.
-- How to Use It --
This indicator can be used for:
Support and resistance identification:
Price often reacts to R1/S1, and the outer bands (R4/R5 or S4/S5) act as overshoot zones or strong reversal areas.
Trend context:
If price is respecting upper bands (R2–R3), the trend is likely bullish. If price is pressing into S3 or lower, it may indicate sustained selling pressure or a breakdown.
Volatility framing:
The distance between bands adjusts based on price range over the rolling window. In tighter markets, the bands compress — in volatile moves, they expand. This makes the indicator self-adaptive.
Mean reversion trades:
A move into R4/R5 or S4/S5 without continuation can be a sign of exhaustion — potential for reversal toward the pivot.
Alerting:
Built-in alerts are available for crosses of all major bands (R1–R5, S1–S5), enabling trade automation or scalp alerts with ease.
-- Visual Features --
Fuchsia Lines: Mark all Resistance (R1–R5) levels.
Lime Lines: Mark all Support (S1–S5) levels.
Gray Circle Line: Marks the rolling pivot (VWAP-based).
-- Customizable Settings --
Rolling Length: Number of bars used to calculate VWAP and VW Range.
Multiplier: Controls how wide the bands are spaced.
Smooth Pivot: Toggle on/off to smooth the central pivot.
Pivot Smoothing Length: Controls how many bars to average when smoothing is enabled.
Offset: Visually shift all bands forward/backward in time.
-- Why Use This Over Standard Pivots? --
Traditional pivots are based on previous session data and remain fixed. That’s useful for static setups, but may become irrelevant as price action evolves. In contrast:
This system updates every bar, adjusting to current price behavior.
It includes volume — a key feature missing from most static pivots.
It shows multiple bands, giving a full view of compression, breakout potential, or trend exhaustion.
-- Who Is This For? --
This tool is ideal for:
Day traders & scalpers who need relevant intraday levels.
Swing traders looking for evolving areas of confluence.
Algorithmic/systematic traders who rely on quantifiable, volume-aware support/resistance.
Traders on all assets: works on crypto, stocks, futures, forex — any chart that has volume.
Master LTC/BTC Mining Energy Ratio, Usage (GW) & Miner CountThis Pine Script indicator, "Master LTC/BTC Mining Energy Ratio, Usage (GW) & Miner Count," calculates and visualizes key metrics for Litecoin (LTC) and Bitcoin (BTC) mining operations. Using IntoTheBlock hashrate data, it estimates the number of L7 (LTC) and S19 (BTC) miners, computes energy consumption in gigawatts (GW) based on calibrated efficiency values, and derives the LTC/BTC energy ratio as a percentage. The script plots these metrics—energy ratio, LTC/BTC energy usage, and miner counts (in thousands)—and displays a concise table summarizing the results. Assuming most miners use previous-generation hardware, it provides a clear comparison of the energy dynamics between LTC’s Scrypt and BTC’s SHA-256 algorithms.
Anchored VWAP Pro (Final Visibility Enhanced)This is a fully customizable Anchored VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) indicator designed for traders who prioritize precision, clarity, and macro trend analysis.
Unlike traditional VWAPs tied to daily or session data, this version allows you to manually anchor the VWAP to any candle in history—ideal for macro swing trading, cycle lows, breakouts, and reaccumulation phases.
Features:
• Manual Anchor Date: Set the exact year, month, and day for your VWAP to begin
• Custom Price Source: Choose between HLC3, close, or any OHLC-based input
• VWAP Bands: Two standard deviation bands for identifying overextension or fair value zones
• Full Visual Control:
• Toggle each band on/off individually
• Adjust color, line width, and line style (solid, dotted, dashed)
• Built for Clarity: Designed to stand out on both light and dark charts
This script is ideal for:
• Identifying macro confluence zones
• Defining risk during trend pullbacks
• Confirming breakout legitimacy
• Layering with other tools like Market Cipher, VRVP, and Fib levels
Inspired by the work of LonesomeTheBlue, Algokid, and other pros—this is a cleaner, more flexible and updated alternative for precision trading.

The Underlying Concept / What is Momentum?
Momentum indicates transaction pressure. If the algorithm detects price is going up, that would be considered positive momentum. If the algorithm detects price is going down negative momentum would be detected.
The Momentum shown is derived from a price action pattern. Unlike my previous Support & Resistance indicator that used Super Trend, this indicator uses a unique pattern I created. On the first bar bearish momentum is detected a resistance Level is made at the highest point of the previous bullish condition. On the first bar bullish momentum is detected a support Level is made at the lowest point of the previous bearish condition. This happens on 5 different Momentum Levels, (short-term to long-term). I currently use this pattern to trade so the source code is protected.
What is Severity?
Severity is How we differentiate the importance of different Highs and Lows. If Momentum is detected on a higher level the Supply or Demand Level is updated. The Color and Size representing that Level will be shown. Demand and Supply Levels made by higher levels are more SEVERE than a demand level made by a lower level.
Technical Inputs
- to ensure the correct calculation of Support and Resistance levels change BAR_INDEX. BAR_INDEX creates a buffer at the start of the chart. For example: If you set BAR_INDEX to 300. The script will wait for 300 bars to elapse on the current chart before running. This allows the script more time to gather data. Which is needed in order for our dynamic lookback length to never return an error (Dynamic lookback length can't be negative or zero). The lower the timeframe the greater the number of bars need. For Example, if I open up a 1min chart I would enter 5000 as my BAR_INDEX since that will provide enough data to ensure the correct calculation of Support and Resistance levels. If I was on a daily chart, I would enter a lower number such as 800. Don't be afraid to play around with this.
- Toggle options (Close) or (High & Low) creates Support and Resistance Levels using the Lowest close and Highest close or using the Lowest low and Highest high.
Level Inputs
- The indicator has 5 Different Levels indicating SEVEREITY of a Supply and Demand Levels. The higher the Level the more SEVERE the Level.

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

Experimental Research: Cycle Biologique Strategy
Overview
The "Cycle Biologique Strategy" is an experimental trading algorithm designed to leverage periodic cycles in price movements by utilizing a sinusoidal function. This strategy aims to identify potential buy and sell signals based on the behavior of a custom-defined biological cycle.
Key Parameters
Cycle Length: This parameter defines the duration of the cycle, set by default to 30 periods. The user can adjust this value to optimize the strategy for different asset classes or market conditions.
Amplitude: The amplitude of the cycle influences the scale of the sinusoidal wave, allowing for customization in the sensitivity of buy and sell signals.
Offset: The offset parameter introduces phase shifts to the cycle, adjustable within a range of -360 to 360 degrees. This flexibility allows the strategy to align with various market rhythms.
Methodology
The core of the strategy lies in the calculation of a periodic cycle using a sinusoidal function.
Trading Signals
Buy Signal: A buy signal is generated when the cycle value crosses above zero, indicating a potential upward momentum.
Sell Signal: Conversely, a sell signal is triggered when the cycle value crosses below zero, suggesting a potential downtrend.
Execution
The strategy executes trades based on these signals:
Upon receiving a buy signal, the algorithm enters a long position.
When a sell signal occurs, the strategy closes the long position.
Visualization
To enhance user experience, the periodic cycle is plotted visually on the chart in blue, allowing traders to observe the cyclical nature of the strategy and its alignment with market movements.
Multi-Oscillator Adaptive Kernel | AlphaAlgosMulti-Oscillator Adaptive Kernel | AlphaAlgos
Overview
The Multi-Oscillator Adaptive Kernel (MOAK) is an advanced technical analysis tool that combines multiple oscillators through sophisticated kernel-based smoothing algorithms. This indicator is designed to provide clearer trend signals while filtering out market noise, offering traders a comprehensive view of market momentum across multiple timeframes.
Key Features
• Fusion of multiple technical oscillators (RSI, Stochastic, MFI, CCI)
• Advanced kernel smoothing technology with three distinct mathematical models
• Customizable sensitivity and lookback periods
• Clear visual signals for trend shifts and reversals
• Overbought/oversold zones for precise entry and exit timing
• Adaptive signal that responds to varying market conditions
Technical Components
The MOAK indicator utilizes a multi-layer approach to signal generation:
1. Oscillator Fusion
The core of the indicator combines normalized readings from up to four popular oscillators:
• RSI (Relative Strength Index) - Measures the speed and change of price movements
• Stochastic - Compares the closing price to the price range over a specific period
• MFI (Money Flow Index) - Volume-weighted RSI that includes trading volume
• CCI (Commodity Channel Index) - Measures current price level relative to an average price
2. Kernel Smoothing
The combined oscillator data is processed through one of three kernel functions:
• Exponential Kernel - Provides stronger weighting to recent data with exponential decay
• Linear Kernel - Applies a linear weighting from most recent to oldest data points
• Gaussian Kernel - Uses a bell curve distribution that helps filter out extreme values
3. Dual Signal Lines
• Fast Signal Line - Responds quickly to price changes
• Slow Signal Line - Provides confirmation and shows the underlying trend direction
Configuration Options
Oscillator Selection:
• Enable/disable each oscillator (RSI, Stochastic, MFI, CCI)
• Customize individual lookback periods for each oscillator
Kernel Settings:
• Kernel Type - Choose between Exponential, Linear, or Gaussian mathematical models
• Kernel Length - Adjust the smoothing period (higher values = smoother line)
• Sensitivity - Fine-tune the indicator's responsiveness (higher values = more responsive)
Display Options:
• Color Bars - Toggle price bar coloring based on indicator direction
How to Interpret the Indicator
Signal Line Direction:
• Upward movement (teal) indicates bullish momentum
• Downward movement (magenta) indicates bearish momentum
Trend Shifts:
• Small circles mark the beginning of new uptrends
• X-marks indicate the start of new downtrends
Overbought/Oversold Conditions:
• Values above +50 suggest overbought conditions (potential reversal or pullback)
• Values below -50 suggest oversold conditions (potential reversal or bounce)
Trading Strategies
Trend Following:
• Enter long positions when the signal line turns teal and shows an uptrend
• Enter short positions when the signal line turns magenta and shows a downtrend
• Use the slow signal line (area fill) as confirmation of the underlying trend
Counter-Trend Trading:
• Look for divergences between price and the indicator
• Consider profit-taking when the indicator reaches overbought/oversold areas
• Wait for trend shift signals before entering counter-trend positions
Multiple Timeframe Analysis:
• Use the indicator across different timeframes for confirmation
• Higher timeframe signals carry more weight than lower timeframe signals
Best Practices
• Experiment with different kernel types for various market conditions
• Gaussian kernels often work well in ranging markets
• Exponential kernels can provide earlier signals in trending markets
• Combine with volume analysis for higher probability trades
• Use appropriate stop-loss levels as the indicator does not guarantee price movements
This indicator is provided as-is with no guarantees of profit. Always use proper risk management when trading with any technical indicator. Nothing is financial advise.
Market Structure Break with Volume & ATR#### Indicator Overview:
The *Market Structure Break with Volume & ATR (MSB+VolATR)* indicator is designed to identify significant market structure breakouts and breakdowns using a combination of price action, volume analysis, and volatility (ATR). It is particularly useful for traders who rely on higher timeframes for swing trading or positional trading. The indicator highlights bullish and bearish breakouts, retests, fakeouts, and potential buy/sell signals based on RSI overbought/oversold conditions.
---
### Key Features:
1. *Market Structure Analysis*:
- Identifies swing highs and lows on a user-defined higher timeframe.
- Detects breakouts and breakdowns when price exceeds these levels with volume and ATR validation.
2. *Volume Validation*:
- Ensures breakouts are accompanied by above-average volume, reducing the likelihood of false signals.
3. *ATR Filter*:
- Filters out insignificant breakouts by requiring the breakout size to exceed a multiple of the ATR.
4. *RSI Integration*:
- Adds a momentum filter by considering overbought/oversold conditions using RSI.
5. *Visual Enhancements*:
- Draws colored boxes to highlight breakout zones.
- Labels breakouts, retests, and fakeouts for easy interpretation.
- Displays stop levels for potential trades.
6. *Alerts*:
- Provides alert conditions for buy and sell signals, enabling real-time notifications.
---
### Input Settings and Their Effects:
1. **Timeframe (tf):
- Determines the higher timeframe for market structure analysis.
- *Effect*: A higher timeframe (e.g., 1D) reduces noise and provides more reliable swing points, while a lower timeframe (e.g., 4H) may generate more frequent but less reliable signals.
2. **Lookback Period (length):
- Defines the number of historical bars used to identify significant highs and lows.
- *Effect*: A longer lookback period (e.g., 50) captures broader market structure, while a shorter period (e.g., 20) reacts faster to recent price action.
3. **ATR Length (atr_length):
- Sets the period for ATR calculation.
- *Effect*: A shorter ATR length (e.g., 14) reacts faster to recent volatility, while a longer length (e.g., 21) smooths out volatility spikes.
4. **ATR Multiplier (atr_multiplier):
- Filters insignificant breakouts by requiring the breakout size to exceed ATR × multiplier.
- *Effect*: A higher multiplier (e.g., 0.2) reduces false signals but may miss smaller breakouts.
5. **Volume Multiplier (volume_multiplier):
- Sets the volume threshold for breakout validation.
- *Effect*: A higher multiplier (e.g., 1.0) ensures stronger volume confirmation but may reduce the number of signals.
6. **RSI Length (rsi_length):
- Defines the period for RSI calculation.
- *Effect*: A shorter RSI length (e.g., 10) makes the indicator more sensitive to recent price changes, while a longer length (e.g., 20) smooths out RSI fluctuations.
7. *RSI Overbought/Oversold Levels*:
- Sets the thresholds for overbought (default: 70) and oversold (default: 30) conditions.
- *Effect*: Adjusting these levels can make the indicator more or less conservative in generating signals.
8. **Stop Loss Multiplier (SL_Multiplier):
- Determines the distance of the stop-loss level from the entry price based on ATR.
- *Effect*: A higher multiplier (e.g., 2.0) provides wider stops, reducing the risk of being stopped out prematurely but increasing potential losses.
---
### How It Works:
1. *Breakout Detection*:
- A bullish breakout occurs when the close exceeds the highest high of the lookback period, with volume above the threshold and breakout size exceeding ATR × multiplier.
- A bearish breakout occurs when the close falls below the lowest low of the lookback period, with similar volume and ATR validation.
2. *Retest Logic*:
- After a breakout, if price retests the breakout zone without closing beyond it, a retest label is displayed.
3. *Fakeout Detection*:
- If price briefly breaks out but reverses back into the range, a fakeout label is displayed.
4. *Buy/Sell Signals*:
- A sell signal is generated when price reverses below a bullish breakout zone and RSI is overbought.
- A buy signal is generated when price reverses above a bearish breakout zone and RSI is oversold.
5. *Stop Levels*:
- Stop-loss levels are plotted based on ATR × SL_Multiplier, providing a visual guide for risk management.
---
### Who Can Use It and How:
1. *Swing Traders*:
- Use the indicator on daily or 4-hour timeframes to identify high-probability breakout trades.
- Combine with other technical analysis tools (e.g., trendlines, Fibonacci levels) for confirmation.
2. *Positional Traders*:
- Apply the indicator on weekly or daily charts to capture long-term trends.
- Use the stop-loss levels to manage risk over extended periods.
3. *Algorithmic Traders*:
- Integrate the buy/sell signals into automated trading systems.
- Use the alert conditions to trigger trades programmatically.
4. *Risk-Averse Traders*:
- Adjust the ATR and volume multipliers to filter out low-probability trades.
- Use wider stop-loss levels to avoid premature exits.
---
### Where to Use It:
- *Forex*: Identify breakouts in major currency pairs.
- *Stocks*: Spot trend reversals in high-volume stocks.
- *Commodities*: Trade breakouts in gold, oil, or other commodities.
- *Crypto*: Apply to Bitcoin, Ethereum, or other cryptocurrencies for volatile breakout opportunities.
---
### Example Use Case:
- *Timeframe*: 1D
- *Lookback Period*: 50
- *ATR Length*: 14
- *ATR Multiplier*: 0.1
- *Volume Multiplier*: 0.5
- *RSI Length*: 14
- *RSI Overbought/Oversold*: 70/30
- *SL Multiplier*: 1.5
In this setup, the indicator will:
1. Identify significant swing highs and lows on the daily chart.
2. Validate breakouts with volume and ATR filters.
3. Generate buy/sell signals when price reverses and RSI confirms overbought/oversold conditions.
4. Plot stop-loss levels for risk management.
---
### Conclusion:
The *MSB+VolATR* indicator is a versatile tool for traders seeking to capitalize on market structure breakouts with added confirmation from volume and volatility. By customizing the input settings, traders can adapt the indicator to their preferred trading style and risk tolerance. Whether you're a swing trader, positional trader, or algorithmic trader, this indicator provides actionable insights to enhance your trading strategy.
Machine Learning Trendlines Cluster [LuxAlgo]The ML Trendlines Cluster indicator allows traders to automatically identify trendlines using a machine learning algorithm based on k-means clustering and linear regression, highlighting trendlines from clustered prices.
For trader's convenience, trendlines can be filtered based on their slope, allowing them to filter out trendlines that are too horizontal, or instead keep them depending on the user-selected settings.
🔶 USAGE
Traders only need to set the number of trendlines (clusters) they want the tool to detect and the algorithm will do the rest.
By default the tool is set to detect 4 clusters over the last 500 bars, in the image above it is set to detect 10 clusters over the same period.
This approach only focuses on drawing trendlines from prices that share a common trading range, offering a unique perspective to traditional trendlines. Trendlines with a significant slope can highlight higher dispersion within its cluster.
🔹 Trendline Slope Filtering
Traders can filter trendlines by their slope to display only steep or flat trendlines relative to a user-defined threshold.
The image above shows the three different configurations of this feature:
Filtering disabled
Filter slopes above threshold
Filter slopes below threshold
🔶 DETAILS
K-means clustering is a popular machine-learning algorithm that finds observations in a data set that are similar to each other and places them in a group.
The process starts by randomly assigning each data point to an initial group and calculating the centroid for each. A centroid is the center of the group. K-means clustering forms the groups in such a way that the variances between the data points and the centroid of the cluster are minimized.
The trendlines are displayed according to the linear regression function calculated for each cluster.
🔶 SETTINGS
Window Size: Maximum number of bars to get data from
Clusters: Maximum number of clusters (trendlines) to detect
🔹 Optimization
Maximum Iteration Steps: Maximum loop iterations for cluster computation
🔹 Slope Filter
Threshold Multiplier: Multiplier applied to a volatility measure, higher multiplier equals higher threshold
Filter Slopes: Enable/Disable Trendline Slope Filtering, select to filter trendlines with slopes ABOVE or BELOW the threshold
🔹 Style
Upper Zone: Color to display in the top zone
Lower Zone: Color to display in the bottom zone
Lines: Style for the lines
Size: Line size

[GYTS-CE] Market Regime Detector🧊 Market Regime Detector (Community Edition)
🌸 Part of GoemonYae Trading System (GYTS) 🌸
🌸 --------- INTRODUCTION --------- 🌸
💮 What is the Market Regime Detector?
The Market Regime Detector is an advanced, consensus-based indicator that identifies the current market state to increase the probability of profitable trades. By distinguishing between trending (bullish or bearish) and cyclic (range-bound) market conditions, this detector helps you select appropriate tactics for different environments. Instead of forcing a single strategy across all market conditions, our detector allows you to adapt your approach based on real-time market behaviour.
💮 The Importance of Market Regimes
Markets constantly shift between different behavioural states or "regimes":
• Bullish trending markets - characterised by sustained upward price movement
• Bearish trending markets - characterised by sustained downward price movement
• Cyclic markets - characterised by range-bound, oscillating behaviour
Each regime requires fundamentally different trading approaches. Trend-following strategies excel in trending markets but fail in cyclic ones, while mean-reversion strategies shine in cyclic markets but underperform in trending conditions. Detecting these regimes is essential for successful trading, which is why we've developed the Market Regime Detector to accurately identify market states using complementary detection methods.
🌸 --------- KEY FEATURES --------- 🌸
💮 Consensus-Based Detection
Rather than relying on a single method, our detector employs two complementary detection methodologies that analyse different aspects of market behaviour:
• Dominant Cycle Average (DCA) - analyzes price movement relative to its lookback period, a proxy for the dominant cycle
• Volatility Channel - examines price behaviour within adaptive volatility bands
These diverse perspectives are synthesised into a robust consensus that minimises false signals while maintaining responsiveness to genuine regime changes.
💮 Dominant Cycle Framework
The Market Regime Detector uses the concept of dominant cycles to establish a reference framework. You can input the dominant cycle period that best represents the natural rhythm of your market, providing a stable foundation for regime detection across different timeframes.
💮 Intuitive Parameter System
We've distilled complex technical parameters into intuitive controls that traders can easily understand:
• Adaptability - how quickly the detector responds to changing market conditions
• Sensitivity - how readily the detector identifies transitions between regimes
• Consensus requirement - how much agreement is needed among detection methods
This approach makes the detector accessible to traders of all experience levels while preserving the power of the underlying algorithms.
💮 Visual Market Feedback
The detector provides clear visual feedback about the current market regime through:
• Colour-coded chart backgrounds (purple shades for bullish, pink for bearish, yellow for cyclic)
• Colour-coded price bars
• Strength indicators showing the degree of consensus
• Customizable colour schemes to match your preferences or trading system
💮 Integration in the GYTS suite
The Market Regime Detector is compatible with the GYTS Suite , i.e. it passes the regime into the 🎼 Order Orchestrator where you can set how to trade the trending and cyclic regime.
🌸 --------- CONFIGURATION SETTINGS --------- 🌸
💮 Adaptability
Controls how quickly the Market Regime detector adapts to changing market conditions. You can see it as a low-frequency, long-term change parameter:
Very Low: Very slow adaptation, most stable but may miss regime changes
Low: Slower adaptation, more stability but less responsiveness
Normal: Balanced between stability and responsiveness
High: Faster adaptation, more responsive but less stable
Very High: Very fast adaptation, highly responsive but may generate false signals
This setting affects lookback periods and filter parameters across all detection methods.
💮 Sensitivity
Controls how sensitive the detector is to market regime transitions. This acts as a high-frequency, short-term change parameter:
Very Low: Requires substantial evidence to identify a regime change
Low: Less sensitive, reduces false signals but may miss some transitions
Normal: Balanced sensitivity suitable for most markets
High: More sensitive, detects subtle regime changes but may have more noise
Very High: Very sensitive, detects minor fluctuations but may produce frequent changes
This setting affects thresholds for regime detection across all methods.
💮 Dominant Cycle Period
This parameter allows you to specify the market's natural rhythm in bars. This represents a complete market cycle (up and down movement). Finding the right value for your specific market and timeframe might require some experimentation, but it's a crucial parameter that helps the detector accurately identify regime changes. Most of the times the cycle is between 20 and 40 bars.
💮 Consensus Mode
Determines how the signals from both detection methods are combined to produce the final market regime:
• Any Method (OR) : Signals bullish/bearish if either method detects that regime. If methods conflict (one bullish, one bearish), the stronger signal wins. More sensitive, catches more regime changes but may produce more false signals.
• All Methods (AND) : Signals only when both methods agree on the regime. More conservative, reduces false signals but might miss some legitimate regime changes.
• Weighted Decision : Balances both methods with equal weighting. Provides a middle ground between sensitivity and stability.
Each mode also calculates a continuous regime strength value that's used for colour intensity in the 'unconstrained' display mode.
💮 Display Mode
Choose how to display the market regime colours:
• Unconstrained regime: Shows the regime strength as a continuous gradient. This provides more nuanced visualisation where the intensity of the colour indicates the strength of the trend.
• Consensus only: Shows only the final consensus regime with fixed colours based on the detected regime type.
The background and bar colours will change to indicate the current market regime:
• Purple shades: Bullish trending market (darker purple indicates stronger bullish trend)
• Pink shades: Bearish trending market (darker pink indicates stronger bearish trend)
• Yellow: Cyclic (range-bound) market
💮 Custom Colour Options
The Market Regime Detector allows you to customize the colour scheme to match your personal preferences or to coordinate with other indicators:
• Use custom colours: Toggle to enable your own colour choices instead of the default scheme
• Transparency: Adjust the transparency level of all regime colours
• Bullish colours: Define custom colours for strong, medium, weak, and very weak bullish trends
• Bearish colours: Define custom colours for strong, medium, weak, and very weak bearish trends
• Cyclic colour: Define a custom colour for cyclic (range-bound) market conditions
🌸 --------- DETECTION METHODS --------- 🌸
💮 Dominant Cycle Average (DCA)
The Dominant Cycle Average method forms a key part of our detection system:
1. Theoretical Foundation :
The DCA method builds on cycle analysis and the observation that in trending markets, price consistently remains on one side of a moving average calculated using the dominant cycle period. In contrast, during cyclic markets, price oscillates around this average.
2. Calculation Process :
• We calculate a Simple Moving Average (SMA) using the specified lookback period - a proxy for the dominant cycle period
• We then analyse the proportion of time that price spends above or below this SMA over a lookback window. The theory is that the price should cross the SMA each half cycle, assuming that the dominant cycle period is correct and price follows a sinusoid.
• This lookback window is adaptive, scaling with the dominant cycle period (controlled by the Adaptability setting)
• The different values are standardised and normalised to possess more resolving power and to be more robust to noise.
3. Regime Classification :
• When the normalised proportion exceeds a positive threshold (determined by Sensitivity setting), the market is classified as bullish trending
• When it falls below a negative threshold, the market is classified as bearish trending
• When the proportion remains between these thresholds, the market is classified as cyclic
💮 Volatility Channel
The Volatility Channel method complements the DCA method by focusing on price movement relative to adaptive volatility bands:
1. Theoretical Foundation :
This method is based on the observation that trending markets tend to sustain movement outside of normal volatility ranges, while cyclic markets tend to remain contained within these ranges. By creating adaptive bands that adjust to current market volatility, we can detect when price behaviour indicates a trending or cyclic regime.
2. Calculation Process :
• We first calculate a smooth base channel center using a low pass filter, creating a noise-reduced centreline for price
• True Range (TR) is used to measure market volatility, which is then smoothed and scaled by the deviation factor (controlled by Sensitivity)
• Upper and lower bands are created by adding and subtracting this scaled volatility from the centreline
• Price is smoothed using an adaptive A2RMA filter, which has a very flat and stable behaviour, to reduce noise while preserving trend characteristics
• The position of this smoothed price relative to the bands is continuously monitored
3. Regime Classification :
• When smoothed price moves above the upper band, the market is classified as bullish trending
• When smoothed price moves below the lower band, the market is classified as bearish trending
• When price remains between the bands, the market is classified as cyclic
• The magnitude of price's excursion beyond the bands is used to determine trend strength
4. Adaptive Behaviour :
• The smoothing periods and deviation calculations automatically adjust based on the Adaptability setting
• The measured volatility is calculated over a period proportional to the dominant cycle, ensuring the detector works across different timeframes
• Both the center line and the bands adapt dynamically to changing market conditions, making the detector responsive yet stable
This method provides a unique perspective that complements the DCA approach, with the consensus mechanism synthesising insights from both methods.
🌸 --------- USAGE GUIDE --------- 🌸
💮 Starting with Default Settings
The default settings (Normal for Adaptability and Sensitivity, Weighted Decision for Consensus Mode) provide a balanced starting point suitable for most markets and timeframes. Begin by observing how these settings identify regimes in your preferred instruments.
💮 Finding the Optimal Dominant Cycle
The dominant cycle period is a critical parameter. Here are some approaches to finding an appropriate value:
• Start with typical values, usually something around 25 works well
• Visually identify the average distance between significant peaks and troughs
• Experiment with different values and observe which provides the most stable regime identification
• Consider using cycle-finding indicators to help identify the natural rhythm of your market
💮 Adjusting Parameters
• If you notice too many regime changes → Decrease Sensitivity or increase Consensus requirement
• If regime changes seem delayed → Increase Adaptability
• If a trending regime is not detected, the market is automatically assigned to be in a cyclic state
• If you want to see more nuanced regime transitions → Try the "unconstrained" display mode (note that this will not affect the output to other indicators)
💮 Trading Applications
Regime-Specific Strategies:
• Bullish Trending Regime - Use trend-following strategies, trail stops wider, focus on breakouts, consider holding positions longer, and emphasize buying dips
• Bearish Trending Regime - Consider shorts, tighter stops, focus on breakdown points, sell rallies, implement downside protection, and reduce position sizes
• Cyclic Regime - Apply mean-reversion strategies, trade range boundaries, apply oscillators, target definable support/resistance levels, and use profit-taking at extremes
Strategy Switching:
Create a set of rules for each market regime and switch between them based on the detector's signal. This approach can significantly improve performance compared to applying a single strategy across all market conditions.
GYTS Suite Integration:
• In the GYTS 🎼 Order Orchestrator, select the '🔗 STREAM-int 🧊 Market Regime' as the market regime source
• Note that the consensus output (i.e. not the "unconstrained" display) will be used in this stream
• Create different strategies for trending (bullish/bearish) and cyclic regimes. The GYTS 🎼 Order Orchestrator is specifically made for this.
• The output stream is actually very simple, and can possibly be used in indicators and strategies as well. It outputs 1 for bullish, -1 for bearish and 0 for cyclic regime.

Mehul - ADX Zero LagThis script combines two popular technical indicators into a single visualization:
1. **Average Directional Index (ADX)**:
- Measures trend strength on a scale from 0-100 (now normalized to 0-1 by dividing by 100)
- Displayed as a red line
- Adjustable smoothing and length parameters
2. **Zero Lag MACD (Modified Moving Average Convergence Divergence)**:
- An enhanced version of the traditional MACD with reduced lag
- Shows the relationship between fast and slow moving averages
- Main components include:
- MACD line (black)
- Signal line (gray)
- Histogram (green for positive, purple for negative)
- EMA of the MACD line (red)
- Optional crossing dots
Key features of the combined indicator:
- **Scale Adjustment**: Both indicators can be scaled independently (adxScale and macdScale parameters)
- **Visibility Toggles**: Each indicator can be shown or hidden
- **Advanced Customization**: Parameters for both indicators can be fine-tuned
- **Algorithm Selection**: Option to choose between the "Glaz" algorithm or the "real" zero lag algorithm
- **Display Options**: Toggles for visualization elements like crossing dots
The most significant technical aspect is that both indicators are displayed in the same pane with compatible scaling, achieved by normalizing the ADX values and applying user-defined scale factors to both indicators.
This combined indicator is designed to give traders a comprehensive view of both trend strength (from ADX) and momentum/direction (from Zero Lag MACD) in a single, easy-to-read visualization.

Boilerplate Configurable Strategy [Yosiet]This is a Boilerplate Code!
Hello! First of all, let me introduce myself a little bit. I don't come from the world of finance, but from the world of information and communication technologies (ICT) where we specialize in data processing with the aim of automating it and eliminating all human factors and actors in the processes. You could say that I am an algotrader.
That said, in my journey through trading in recent years I have understood that this world is often shown to be incomplete. All those who want to learn about trading only end up learning a small part of what it really entails, they only seek to learn how to read candlesticks. Therefore, I want to share with the entire community a fraction of what I have really understood it to be.
As a computer scientist, the most important thing is the data, it is the raw material of our work and without data you simply cannot do anything. Entropy is simple: Data in -> Data is transformed -> Data out.
The quality of the outgoing data will directly depend on the incoming data, there is no greater mystery or magic in the process. In trading it is no different, because at the end of the day it is nothing more than data. As we often say, if garbage comes in, garbage comes out.
Most people focus on the results only, on the outgoing data, because in the end we all want the same thing, to make easy money. Very few pay attention to the input data, much less to the process.
Now, I am not here to delude you, because there is no bigger lie than easy money, but I am here to give you a boilerplate code that will help you create strategies where you only have to concentrate on the quality of the incoming data.
To the Point
The code is a strategy boilerplate that applies the technique that you decide to customize for the criteria for opening a position. It already has the other factors involved in trading programmed and automated.
1. The Entry
This section of the boilerplate is the one that each individual must customize according to their needs and knowledge. The code is offered with two simple, well-known strategies to exemplify how the code can be reused for your own benefits.
For the purposes of this post on tradingview, I am going to use the simplest of the known strategies in trading for entries: SMA Crossing
// SMA Cross Settings
maFast = ta.sma(close, length)
maSlow = ta.sma(open, length)
The Strategy Properties for all cases published here:
For Stock TSLA H1 From 01/01/2025 To 02/15/2025
For Crypto XMR-USDT 30m From 01/01/2025 To 02/15/2025
For Forex EUR-USD 5m From 01/01/2025 To 02/15/2025
But the goal of this post is not to sell you a dream, else to show you that the same Entry decision works very well for some and does not for others and with this boilerplate code you only have to think of entries, not exits.
2. Schedules, Days, Sessions
As you know, there are an infinite number of markets that are susceptible to the sessions of each country and the news that they announce during those sessions, so the code already offers parameters so that you can condition the days and hours of operation, filter the best time parameters for a specific market and time frame.
3. Data Filtering
The data offered in trading are numerical series presented in vectors on a time axis where an endless number of mathematical equations can be applied to process them, with matrix calculation and non-linear regressions being the best, in my humble opinion.
4. Read Fundamental Macroeconomic Events, News
The boilerplate has integration with the tradingview SDK to detect when news will occur and offers parameters so that you can enable an exclusion time margin to not operate anything during that time window.
5. Direction and Sense
In my experience I have found the peculiarity that the same algorithm works very well for a market in a time frame, but for the same market in another time frame it is only a waste of time and money. So now you can easily decide if you only want to open LONG, SHORT or both side positions and know how effective your strategy really is.
6. Reading the money, THE PURPOSE OF EVERYTHING
The most important section in trading and the reason why many clients usually hire me as a financial programmer, is reading and controlling the money, because in the end everyone wants to win and no one wants to lose. Now they can easily parameterize how the money should flow and this is the genius of this boilerplate, because it is what will really decide if an algorithm (Indicator: A bunch of math equations) for entries will really leave you good money over time.
7. Managing the Risk, The Ego Destroyer
Many trades, little money. Most traders focus on making money and none of them know about statistics and the few who do know something about it, only focus on the winrate. Well, with this code you can unlock what really matters, the true success criteria to be able to live off of trading: Profit Factor, Sortino Ratio, Sharpe Ratio and most importantly, will you really make money?
8. Managing Emotions
Finally, the main reason why many lose money is because they are very bad at managing their emotions, because with this they will no longer need to do so because the boilerplate has already programmed criteria to chase the price in a position, cut losses and maximize profits.
In short, this is a boilerplate code that already has the data processing and data output ready, you only have to worry about the data input.
“And so the trader learned: the greatest edge was not in predicting the storm, but in building a boat that could not sink.”

This post is intended for programmers and quantitative traders who already have a certain level of knowledge and experience. It is not intended to be financial advice or to sell you any money-making script, if you use it, you do so at your own risk.

Naive Bayes Candlestick Pattern Classifier v1.1 BETAAn intermezzo on why i made this script publication..
A : Candlestick Pattern took hours to backtest, why not using Machine Learning techniques?
B : Machine Learning, no that's gonna be really heavy bro!
A : Not really, because we use Naive Bayes.
B : The simplest, yet powerful machine learning algorithm to separate (a.k.a classify) multivariate data.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello, everyone!
After deep research in extracting meaningful information from the market, I ended up building this powerful machine learning indicator based on the evolution of Bayesian Statistics. This indicator not only leverages the simplicity of Naive Bayes but also extends its application to candlestick pattern analysis, making it an invaluable tool for traders who are looking to enhance their technical analysis without spending countless hours manually backtesting each pattern on each market!.
What most interesting part is actually after learning all of likely useless methods like fibonacci, supply and demand, volume profile, etc. We always ended up back to basic like support and resistance and candlestick patterns, but with a slight twist on strategy algorithm design and statistical approach. Thus, the only reason why i made this, because i exactly know that you guys will ended up in this position as time goes by.
The essence of this indicator lies in its ability to automate the recognition and statistical evaluation of various candlestick patterns. Traditionally, traders have relied on visual inspection and manual backtesting to determine the effectiveness of patterns like Bullish Engulfing, Bearish Engulfing, Harami variations, Hammer formations, and even more complex multi-candle patterns such as Three White Soldiers, Three Black Crows, Dark Cloud Cover, and Piercing Pattern. However, these conventional methods are both time-consuming and prone to subjective bias.
To address these challenges, I employed Naive Bayes—a probabilistic classifier that, despite its simplicity, offers robust performance in various domains. Naive Bayes assumes that each feature is independent of the others given the class label, which, although a strong assumption, works remarkably well in practice, especially when the dataset is large like market data and the feature space is high-dimensional. In our case, each candlestick pattern acts as a feature that can be statistically evaluated based on its historical performance. The indicator calculates a probability that a given pattern will lead to a price reversal, by comparing the pattern’s close price to the highest or lowest price achieved in a lookahead window.
One of the standout features of this script is its flexibility. Each candlestick pattern is not only coded into the system but also comes with individual toggles to enable or disable them based on your trading strategy. This means you can choose to focus on single-candle patterns like Bullish Engulfing or more complex multi-candle formations such as Three White Soldiers, without modifying the core code. The built-in customization options allow you to adjust colors and labels for each pattern, giving you the freedom to tailor the visual output to your preference. This level of customization ensures that the indicator integrates seamlessly into your existing TradingView setup.
Moreover, the indicator isn’t just about pattern recognition—it also incorporates outcome-based learning. Every time a pattern is detected, it looks ahead a predefined number of bars to evaluate if the expected reversal actually materialized. This outcome is then stored in arrays, and over time, the script dynamically calculates the probability of success for each pattern. These probabilities are presented in a real-time updating table on your chart, which shows not only the percentage probability but also the count of historical occurrences. With this information at your fingertips, you can quickly gauge the reliability of each pattern in your chosen market and timeframe.
Another significant advantage of this approach is its speed and efficiency. While more complex machine learning models like neural networks might require heavy computational resources and longer training times, the Naive Bayes classifier in this script is lightweight, instantaneous and can be updated on the fly with each new bar. This real-time capability is essential for modern traders who need to make quick decisions in fast-paced markets.
Furthermore, by automating the process of backtesting, the indicator frees up your time to focus on other aspects of trading strategy development. Instead of manually analyzing hundreds or even thousands of candles, you can rely on the statistical power of Naive Bayes to provide you with insights on which patterns are most likely to result in profitable moves. This not only enhances your efficiency but also helps to eliminate the cognitive biases that often plague manual analysis.
In summary, this indicator represents a fusion of traditional candlestick analysis with modern machine learning techniques. It harnesses the simplicity and effectiveness of Naive Bayes to deliver a dynamic, real-time evaluation of various candlestick patterns. Whether you are a seasoned trader looking to refine your technical analysis or a beginner eager to understand market dynamics, this tool offers a powerful, customizable, and efficient solution. Welcome to a new era where advanced statistical methods meet practical trading insights—happy trading and may your patterns always be in your favor!
Note : On this current released beta version, you must manually adjust reversal percentage move based on each market. Further updates may include automated best range detection and probability.
permutation█ OVERVIEW
This library provides functions for generating permutations of string or float arrays, using an iterative approach where pine has no recursion. It supports allowing/limiting duplicate elements and handles large result sets by segmenting them into manageable chunks within custom Data types. The most combinations will vary, but the highest is around 250,000 unique combinations. depending on input array values and output length. it will return nothing if the input count is too low.
█ CONCEPTS
This library addresses two key challenges in Pine Script:
• Recursion Depth Limits: Pine has limitations on recursion depth. This library uses an iterative, stack-based algorithm to generate permutations, avoiding recursive function calls that could exceed these limits.
• Array Size Limits: Pine arrays have size restrictions. This library manages large permutation sets by dividing them into smaller segments stored within a custom Data or DataFloat type, using maps for efficient access.
█ HOW TO USE
1 — Include the Library: Add this library to your script using:
import kaigouthro/permutation/1 as permute
2 — Call the generatePermutations Function:
stringPermutations = permute.generatePermutations(array.from("a", "b", "c"), 2, 1)
floatPermutations = permute.generatePermutations(array.from(1.0, 2.0, 3.0), 2, 1)
• set : The input array of strings or floats.
• size : The desired length of each permutation.
• maxDuplicates (optional): The maximum allowed repetitions of an element within a single permutation. Defaults to 1.
3 — Access the Results: The function returns a Data (for strings) or DataFloat (for floats) object. These objects contain:
• data : An array indicating which segments are present (useful for iterating).
• segments : A map where keys represent segment indices and values are the actual permutation data within that segment.
Example: Accessing Permutations
for in stringPermutations.segments
for in currentSegment.segments
// Access individual permutations within the segment.
permutation = segmennt.data
for item in permutation
// Use the permutation elements...
█ TYPES
• PermutationState / PermutationStateFloat : Internal types used by the iterative algorithm to track the state of permutation generation.
• Data / DataFloat : Custom types to store and manage the generated permutations in segments.
█ NOTES
* The library prioritizes handling potentially large permutation sets. 250,000 i about the highest achievable.
* The segmentation logic ensures that results are accessible even when the total number of permutations exceeds Pine's array size limits.

Shannon Entropy Volatility AnalyzerThis algorithm aims to measure market uncertainty or volatility using a Shannon entropy-based approach. 🔄📊
Entropy is a measure of disorder or unpredictability, and here we use it to evaluate the structure of price returns within a defined range of periods (window length). 🧩⏳ Thus, the goal is to detect changes to identify conditions of high or low volatility. 🔍⚡
What we seek with Shannon's formula in this algorithm is to measure market uncertainty or volatility through dynamic entropy. This measure helps us understand how unpredictable price behavior is over a given period, which is key to making informed decisions. 📈🧠
Through this formula, we calculate the level of disorder or dispersion in price returns based on their probability of occurrence, enabling us to identify moments of high or low volatility. 💡💥
Shannon Entropy Calculation 📏
• Uses probabilities to measure uncertainty in returns. 🎲
• Entropy is normalized on a scale of 0 to 100, where:
o High Entropy: Unpredictable movements (high uncertainty). ⚠️💥
•
o Low Entropy: Structured movements (low uncertainty). 📉🔒
•
• With probabilities, we measure the level of dispersion or unpredictability of returns using Shannon's entropy formula. 📊🔍
________________________________________
Indicator Usefulness 🛠️
• Identify High Volatility: When the market is unpredictable, the indicator signals "High Uncertainty." ⚡🔮
• Detect Market Stability: When the market is more predictable and structured, the indicator highlights "Low Uncertainty." 🔒🧘♂️
• Neutral Zones: Helps monitor markets without extreme conditions, enabling safer entry or exit opportunities. ⚖️🚶♂️
________________________________________
Uncertainty Zones 🌀
1. High Uncertainty: When entropy exceeds the upper threshold. 🚨🔺
2. Low Uncertainty: When entropy is below the lower threshold. 🔻💡
3. Neutral: When entropy lies between both thresholds. ⚖️🔄
________________________________________
What We Aim to Achieve with the Formula in Practice 🎯
1. Detection of Volatile Moments: Shannon’s formula helps us identify when the market is unpredictable. This is a good moment to take additional precautions, such as reducing position size or avoiding trading during high volatility phases. ⚠️📉
2. Trading Opportunities in Stable Markets: With low entropy, we can identify when the market is more predictable, favoring trend or momentum strategies with a higher chance of success. 🚀📈
3. Optimization of Risk Management: By measuring market volatility in real-time, we can adjust entry and exit strategies, tailoring risk based on the level of uncertainty detected. 🔄⚖️
