System 0530 - Stoch RSI Strategy with ATR filterStrategy Description: System 0530 - Multi-Timeframe Stochastic RSI with ATR Filter
Overview:
This strategy, "System 0530," is designed to identify trading opportunities by leveraging the Stochastic RSI indicator across two different timeframes: a shorter timeframe for initial signal triggers (assumed to be the chart's current timeframe, e.g., 5-minute) and a longer timeframe (15-minute) for signal confirmation. It incorporates an ATR (Average True Range) filter to help ensure trades are taken during periods of adequate market volatility and includes a cooldown mechanism to prevent rapid, successive signals in the same direction. Trade exits are primarily handled by reversing signals.
How It Works:
1. Signal Initiation (e.g., 5-Minute Timeframe):
Long Signal Wait: A potential long entry is considered when the 5-minute Stochastic RSI %K line crosses above its %D line, AND the %K value at the time of the cross is at or below a user-defined oversold level (default: 30).
Short Signal Wait: A potential short entry is considered when the 5-minute Stochastic RSI %K line crosses below its %D line, AND the %K value at the time of the cross is at or above a user-defined overbought level (default: 70). When these conditions are met, the strategy enters a "waiting state" for confirmation from the 15-minute timeframe.
2. Signal Confirmation (15-Minute Timeframe):
Once in a waiting state, the strategy looks for confirmation on the 15-minute Stochastic RSI within a user-defined number of 5-minute bars (wait_window_5min_bars, default: 5 bars).
Long Confirmation:
The 15-minute Stochastic RSI %K must be greater than or equal to its %D line.
The 15-minute Stochastic RSI %K value must be below a user-defined threshold (stoch_15min_long_entry_level, default: 40).
Short Confirmation:
The 15-minute Stochastic RSI %K must be less than or equal to its %D line.
The 15-minute Stochastic RSI %K value must be above a user-defined threshold (stoch_15min_short_entry_level, default: 60).
3. Filters:
ATR Volatility Filter: If enabled, trades are only confirmed if the current ATR value (converted to ticks) is above a user-defined minimum threshold (min_atr_value_ticks). This helps to avoid taking signals during periods of very low market volatility. If the ATR condition is not met, the strategy continues to wait for the condition to be met within the confirmation window, provided other conditions still hold.
Signal Cooldown Filter: If enabled, after a signal is generated, the strategy will wait for a minimum number of bars (min_bars_between_signals) before allowing another signal in the same direction. This aims to reduce overtrading.
4. Entry and Exit Logic:
Entry: A strategy.entry() order is placed when all trigger, confirmation, and filter conditions are met.
Exit: This strategy primarily uses reversing signals for exits. For example, if a long position is open, a confirmed short signal will close the long position and open a new short position. There are no explicit take profit or stop loss orders programmed into this version of the script.
Key User-Adjustable Parameters:
Stochastic RSI Parameters: RSI Length, Stochastic RSI Length, %K Smoothing, %D Smoothing.
Signal Trigger & Confirmation:
5-minute %K trigger levels for long and short.
15-minute %K confirmation thresholds for long and short.
Wait window (in 5-minute bars) for 15-minute confirmation.
Filters:
Enable/disable and configure the Signal Cooldown filter (minimum bars between signals).
Enable/disable and configure the ATR Volatility filter (ATR period, minimum ATR value in ticks).
Strategy Parameters:
Leverage Multiplier (Note: This primarily affects theoretical position sizing for backtesting calculations in TradingView and does not simulate actual leveraged trading risks).
Recommendations for Users:
Thorough Backtesting: Test this strategy extensively on historical data for the instruments and timeframes you intend to trade.
Parameter Optimization: Experiment with different parameter settings to find what works best for your trading style and chosen markets. The default values are starting points and may not be optimal for all conditions.
Understand the Logic: Ensure you understand how each component (Stochastic RSI on different timeframes, ATR filter, cooldown) interacts to generate signals.
Risk Management: Since this version does not include explicit stop-loss orders, ensure you have a clear risk management plan in place if trading this strategy live. You might consider manually adding stop-loss orders through your broker or using TradingView's separate strategy order settings for stop-loss if applicable.

atr stop loss for double SMA v6Strategy Name
atr stop loss for double SMA v6
Credit: This v6 update is based on Daveatt’s “BEST ATR Stop Multiple Strategy.”
Core Logic
Entry: Go long when the 15-period SMA crosses above the 45-period SMA; go short on the inverse cross.
Stop-Loss: On entry, compute ATR(14)×2.0 and set a fixed stop at entry ± that amount. Stop remains static until hit.
Trend Tracking: Uses barssince() to ensure only one active long or short position; stop is only active while that trend persists.
Visualization
Plots fast/slow SMA lines in teal/orange.
On each entry bar, displays a label showing “ATR value” and “ATR×multiple” positioned at the 30-bar low (long) or high (short).
Draws an “×” at the stop-price level in green (long) or red (short) while the position is open.
Execution Settings
Initial Capital: $100 000, Size = 100 shares per trade.
Commission: 0.075% per trade.
Pyramiding: 1.
Calculations: Only on bar close (no intra-bar ticks).
Usage Notes
Static ATR stop adapts to volatility but does not trail.
Ideal for trending, liquid markets (stocks, futures, FX).
Adjust SMA lengths or ATR multiple for faster/slower signals.
Three Candle Bullish Engulfing StrategyThe Three Candle Bullish Engulfing Strategy is a versatile, multi-mode trading system designed for TradingView, combining classic candlestick patterns with momentum confirmation and dynamic risk management. This script supports both swing trading and intraday approaches, as well as an optional RSI-based breakout mode for additional signal filtering.
Key Features:
Three Candle Pattern Detection:
The strategy identifies potential trend reversal points using a three-candle pattern:
The first candle is a strong bullish (or bearish) move.
The second candle is a doji or small-bodied candle, indicating indecision.
The third candle is a bullish (or bearish) engulfing candle that closes above (or below) the previous high (or low), confirming the reversal.
Flexible Trading Modes:
Swing Long Only: Enter long trades on bullish three-candle setups.
Intraday Long & Short: Trade both long and short based on bullish and bearish three-candle patterns, with automatic session-end exits.
RSI Breakout Mode: Enter long trades when the 1-hour RSI exceeds a user-defined threshold (default 80) and a bullish candle forms, with breakout confirmation and a fixed-percentage stop loss.
Visual Aids:
Plots the RSI breakout trigger price and stop loss on the chart for easy monitoring.
How It Works:
Three Candle Pattern Entries:
Long Entry: Triggered when a bullish candle is followed by a doji, then a bullish engulfing candle closes above the previous high.
Short Entry (Intraday only): Triggered by the inverse pattern—bearish candle, doji, then bearish engulfing candle closing below the previous low.
RSI Breakout Entries:
When the RSI on a higher timeframe (default 1 hour) exceeds the set threshold and a bullish candle forms, the script records a trigger price.
A long trade is entered if the price breaks above this trigger, with a stop loss set a fixed percentage below.
Exits:
Positions are closed if the trailing stop is hit, the session ends (for intraday mode), or the stop loss is triggered in RSI breakout mode.
In RSI breakout mode, positions are also closed if a new breakout trigger forms while in position.
Arnaud Legoux Trend Aggregator | Lyro RSArnaud Legoux Trend Aggregator
Introduction
Arnaud Legoux Trend Aggregator is a custom-built trend analysis tool that blends classic market oscillators with advanced normalization, advanced math functions and Arnaud Legoux smoothing. Unlike conventional indicators, 𝓐𝓛𝓣𝓐 aggregates market momentum, volatility and trend strength.
Signal Insight
The 𝓐𝓛𝓣𝓐 line visually reflects the aggregated directional bias. A rise above the middle line threshold signals bullish strength, while a drop below the middle line indicates bearish momentum.
Another way to interpret the 𝓐𝓛𝓣𝓐 is through overbought and oversold conditions. When the 𝓐𝓛𝓣𝓐 rises above the +0.7 threshold, it suggests an overbought market and signals a strong uptrend. Conversely, a drop below the -0.7 level indicates an oversold condition and a strong downtrend.
When the oscillator hovers near the zero line, especially within the neutral ±0.3 band, it suggests that no single directional force is dominating—common during consolidation phases or pre-breakout compression.
Real-World Example
Usually 𝓐𝓛𝓣𝓐 is used by following the bar color for simple signals; however, like most indicators there are unique ways to use an indicator. Let’s dive deep into such ways.
The market begins with a green bar color, raising awareness for a potential long setup—but not a direct entry. In this methodology, bar coloring serves as an alert mechanism rather than a strict entry trigger.
The first long position was initiated when the 𝓐𝓛𝓣𝓐 signal line crossed above the +0.3 threshold, suggesting a shift in directional acceleration. This entry coincided with a rising price movement, validating the trade.
As price advanced, the position was exited into cash—not reversed into a short—because the short criteria for this use case are distinct. The exit was prompted by 𝓐𝓛𝓣𝓐 crossing back below the +0.3 level, signaling the potential weakening of the long trend.
Later, as 𝓐𝓛𝓣𝓐 crossed below 0, attention shifted toward short opportunities. A short entry was confirmed when 𝓐𝓛𝓣𝓐 dipped below -0.3, indicating growing downside momentum. The position was eventually closed when 𝓐𝓛𝓣𝓐 crossed back above the -0.3 boundary—signaling a possible deceleration of the bearish move.
This logic was consistently applied in subsequent setups, emphasizing the role of 𝓐𝓛𝓣𝓐’s thresholds in guiding both entries and exits.
Framework
The Arnaud Legoux Trend Aggregator (ALTA) combines multiple technical indicators into a single smoothed signal. It uses RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands, Stochastic Momentum Index, and ATR.
Each indicator's output is normalized to a common scale to eliminate bias and ensure consistency. These normalized values are then transformed using a hyperbolic tangent function (Tanh).
The final score is refined with a custom Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA) function, which offers responsive smoothing that adapts quickly to price changes. This results in a clear signal that reacts efficiently to shifting market conditions.
⚠️ WARNING ⚠️: THIS INDICATOR, OR ANY OTHER WE (LYRO RS) PUBLISH, IS NOT FINANCIAL OR INVESTMENT ADVICE. EVERY INDICATOR SHOULD BE COMBINED WITH PRICE ACTION, FUNDAMENTALS, OTHER TECHNICAL ANALYSIS TOOLS & PROPER RISK. MANAGEMENT.
Zero Lag Multi Timeframe MACDCommon parts of the Multi Time Frame MACD
Why This MACD is Special
Traditional MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) is a powerful trend-following indicator, but it has a key limitation: it only reflects price action on a single timeframe. Traders who rely on top-down analysis—analyzing higher timeframes first before moving to lower ones—often face a frustrating delay.
The Problem with Traditional Multi-Timeframe MACD with top down analysis:
If you’re on a 5-minute chart and want to see the 1-hour MACD, you must wait for 12 candles (1 hour) to close before the MACD updates.
This lag means you miss real-time signals and react too late to trend changes.
The Zero Lag Multi-Timeframe MACD solves this by using a custom time-adjusted formula (developed by CoffeeShopCrypto) that projects higher timeframe MACD values onto lower timeframe charts in real time.
How Traders Normally Use MACD
Single-Timeframe MACD (Traditional Approach)
Used for trend identification (bullish/bearish).
Crossovers (MACD line crossing signal line) signal potential entries.
Divergences (price vs. MACD direction) warn of trend exhaustion.
Top-Down Analysis with Standard MACD (Manual Switching)
1. Check higher timeframe (e.g., 1-hour) for trend direction.
2. Switch to lower timeframe (e.g., 5-minute) for entries.
Problem: You must constantly switch charts and wait for higher timeframe candles to close.
This MACD Eliminates the Need for Switching
Higher timeframe MACD is plotted in real time on your lower timeframe chart.
No waiting for candle closes—instant trend confirmation.
Single-chart top-down analysis without switching timeframes.
How to Use This MACD for Trading
Since the MACD is an averaging indicator, it works best when trading with the trend. This version enhances that by showing two trends at once:
Lower Timeframe (LTF) MACD – Your current chart’s trend.
Higher Timeframe (HTF) MACD – The dominant trend.
Key Trading Rules
1. Strong Uptrend Setup (Best for Long Entries)
HTF MACD line is rising & above zero (strong bullish momentum).
LTF MACD line is also rising (confirms alignment).
Entry: Look for LTF MACD to cross above signal line.
Long Entry Confirmation:
When both the High Timeframe and Low Timeframe MACD Lines are moving in the same direction, this is a confirmation that both the HTF is matching the direction of the LTF.
In this example both MACD Lines are moving long so we are only looking to take long entries at this point forward.
Short Entry Confirmation:
When both the High Timeframe and Low Timeframe MACD Lines are moving in the same direction, this is a confirmation that both the HTF is matching the direction of the LTF.
In this example both MACD Lines are moving short so we are only looking to take long entries at this point forward.
2. Potential Reversal or Weak Uptrend
Trend Divergence Confirmation
This example shows you a confirmation of divergence between the trends. Its best to watch for a continuation of the previous major trend. In this example, we just came off a downtrend with a GAP DOWN.
How to see it: (Trend Divergence)
Two things will help you confirm this divergence
1.Notice the LTF and HTF MACD are moving away from each other.
2. Both the HTF and LTF Histogram are shrinking.
This is an expression of lack of trend.
What to do:
High Timeframe Trends are always the lead so wait for the Low Timeframe to catch up to the High Timeframe trend.
Limitations:
The Exponential Moving Average calculation can only be applied to the Low Timeframe MACD because of the way its weighted against more recent price action and closing values.
This same EMA calculation can not be applied to the High Timeframe MACD as its being recalculated and the result means you can not weigh values against its current plot point.
Low Timeframe MACD can use EMA / SMA
High Timeframe MACD can only use SMA

User-Friendly Interface: All settings are neatly organized in the indicator's input menu, making configuration straightforward and intuitive.
How Can You Use the Decode MAT in Your Trading?
This toolkit is incredibly versatile and can be adapted to various trading strategies:
Trend Identification:
Use longer-term MAs (e.g., 50, 100, 200 period) to identify the prevailing market trend. When prices are consistently above these MAs, it suggests an uptrend, and vice-versa.
Observe the MA ribbons: A consistently green ribbon can indicate a strong uptrend, while a red ribbon can signal a downtrend. The widening or narrowing of the ribbon can also suggest changes in trend momentum.
Dynamic Support & Resistance:
Shorter-term MAs (e.g., 10, 20 period EMAs) can act as dynamic levels of support in an uptrend or resistance in a downtrend. Look for price pullbacks to these MAs as potential entry opportunities.
Crossover Signals (Entries & Exits):
Golden Cross / Death Cross: Configure alerts for classic crossover signals. For example, a 50-period MA crossing above a 200-period MA (Golden Cross) is often seen as a long-term bullish signal. Conversely, a 50-period MA crossing below a 200-period MA (Death Cross) can be a bearish signal.
Shorter-Term Signals: Use crossovers of shorter-term MAs (e.g., EMA 10 crossing EMA 20) for more frequent, shorter-term trading signals. A fast MA crossing above a slow MA can signal a buy, while a cross below can signal a sell.
Use the on-chart symbols for quick visual confirmation of these crossover events.
Confirmation Tool:
Combine the Decode MAT with other indicators (like RSI, MACD, or volume analysis) to confirm signals and increase the probability of successful trades. For instance, a bullish MA crossover combined with an oversold RSI reading could strengthen a buy signal.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
Apply the toolkit across different timeframes to get a broader market perspective. A long-term uptrend on the daily chart, confirmed by a short-term bullish crossover on the 1-hour chart, can provide a higher-confidence entry.
The DECODE Moving Average Toolkit empowers you to tailor your MA analysis precisely to your needs.
REVELATIONS (VoVix - PoC) REVELATIONS (VoVix - POC): True Regime Detection Before the Move
Let’s not sugarcoat it: Most strategies on TradingView are recycled—RSI, MACD, OBV, CCI, Stochastics. They all lag. No matter how many overlays you stack, every one of these “standard” indicators fires after the move is underway. The retail crowd almost always gets in late. That’s never been enough for my team, for DAFE, or for anyone who’s traded enough to know the real edge vanishes by the time the masses react.
How is this different?
REVELATIONS (VoVix - POC) was engineered from raw principle, structured to detect pre-move regime change—before standard technicals even light up. We built, tested, and refined VoVix to answer one hard question:
What if you could see the spike before the trend?
Here’s what sets this system apart, line-by-line:
o True volatility-of-volatility mathematics: It’s not just "ATR of ATR" or noise smoothing. VoVix uses normalized, multi-timeframe v-vol spikes, instantly detecting orderbook stress and "outlier" market events—before the chart shows them as trends.
o Purist regime clustering: Every trade is enabled only during coordinated, multi-filter regime stress. No more signals in meaningless chop.
o Nonlinear entry logic: No trade is ever sent just for a “good enough” condition. Every entry fires only if every requirement is aligned—local extremes, super-spike threshold, regime index, higher timeframe, all must trigger in sync.
o Adaptive position size: Your contracts scale up with event strength. Tiny size during nominal moves, max leverage during true regime breaks—never guesswork, never static exposure.
o All exits governed by regime decay logic: Trades are closed not just on price targets but at the precise moment the market regime exhausts—the hardest part of systemic trading, now solved.
How this destroys the lag:
Standard indicators (RSI, MACD, OBV, CCI, and even most “momentum” overlays) simply tell you what already happened. VoVix triggers as price structure transitions—anyone running these generic scripts will trade behind the move while VoVix gets in as stress emerges. Real alpha comes from anticipation, not confirmation.
The visuals only show what matters:
Top right, you get a live, live quant dashboard—regime index, current position size, real-time performance (Sharpe, Sortino, win rate, and wins). Bottom right: a VoVix "engine bar" that adapts live with regime stress. Everything you see is a direct function of logic driving this edge—no cosmetics, no fake momentum.
Inputs/Signals—explained carefully for clarity:
o ATR Fast Length & ATR Slow Length:
These are the heart of VoVix’s regime sensing. Fast ATR reacts to sharp volatility; Slow ATR is stability baseline. Lower Fast = reacts to every twitch; higher Slow = requires more persistent, “real” regime shifts.
Tip: If you want more signals or faster markets, lower ATR Fast. To eliminate noise, raise ATR Slow.
o ATR StdDev Window: Smoothing for volatility-of-volatility normalization. Lower = more jumpy, higher = only the cleanest spikes trigger.
Tip: Shorten for “jumpy” assets, raise for indices/futures.
o Base Spike Threshold: Think of this as your “minimum event strength.” If the current move isn’t volatile enough (normalized), no signal.
Tip: Higher = only biggest moves matter. Lower for more signals but more potential noise.
o Super Spike Multiplier: The “are you sure?” test—entry only when the current spike is this multiple above local average.
Tip: Raise for ultra-selective/swing-trading; lower for more active style.
Regime & MultiTF:
o Regime Window (Bars):
How many bars to scan for regime cluster “events.” Short for turbo markets, long for big swings/trends only.
o Regime Event Count: Only trade when this many spikes occur within the Regime Window—filters for real stress, not isolated ticks.
Tip: Raise to only ever trade during true breakouts/crashes.
o Local Window for Extremes:
How many bars to check that a spike is a local max.
Tip: Raise to demand only true, “clearest” local regime events; lower for early triggers.
o HTF Confirm:
Higher timeframe regime confirmation (like 45m on an intraday chart). Ensures any event you act on is visible in the broader context.
Tip: Use higher timeframes for only major moves; lower for scalping or fast regimes.
Adaptive Sizing:
o Max Contracts (Adaptive): The largest size your system will ever scale to, even on extreme event.
Tip: Lower for small accounts/conservative risk; raise on big accounts or when you're willing to go big only on outlier events.
o Min Contracts (Adaptive): The “toe-in-the-water.” Smallest possible trade.
Tip: Set as low as your broker/exchange allows for safety, or higher if you want to always have meaningful skin in the game.
Trade Management:
o Stop %: Tightness of your stop-loss relative to entry. Lower for tighter/safer, higher for more breathing room at cost of greater drawdown.
o Take Profit %: How much you'll hold out for on a win. Lower = more scalps. Higher = only run with the best.
o Decay Exit Sensitivity Buffer: Regime index must dip this far below the trading threshold before you exit for “regime decay.”
Tip: 0 = exit as soon as stress fails, higher = exits only on stronger confirmation regime is over.
o Bars Decay Must Persist to Exit: How long must decay be present before system closes—set higher to avoid quick fades and whipsaws.
Backtest Settings
Initial capital: $10,000
Commission: Conservative, realistic roundtrip cost:
15–20 per contract (including slippage per side) I set this to $25
Slippage: 3 ticks per trade
Symbol: CME_MINI:NQ1!
Timeframe: 1 min (but works on all timeframes)
Order size: Adaptive, 1–3 contracts
No pyramiding, no hidden DCA
Why these settings?
These settings are intentionally strict and realistic, reflecting the true costs and risks of live trading. The 10,000 account size is accessible for most retail traders. 25/contract including 3 ticks of slippage are on the high side for NQ, ensuring the strategy is not curve-fit to perfect fills. If it works here, it will work in real conditions.
Tip: Set to 1 for instant regime exit; raise for extra confirmation (less whipsaw risk, exits held longer).
________________________________________
Bottom line: Tune the sensitivity, selectivity, and risk of REVELATIONS by these inputs. Raise thresholds and windows for only the best, most powerful signals (institutional style); lower for activity (scalpers, fast cryptos, signals in constant motion). Sizing is always adaptive—never static or martingale. Exits are always based on both price and regime health. Every input is there for your control, not to sell “complexity.” Use with discipline, and make it your own.
This strategy is not just a technical achievement: It’s a statement about trading smarter, not just more.
* I went back through the code to make sure no the strategy would not suffer from repainting, forward looking, or any frowned upon loopholes.
Disclaimer:
Trading is risky and carries the risk of substantial loss. Do not use funds you aren’t prepared to lose. This is for research and informational purposes only, not financial advice. Backtest, paper trade, and know your risk before going live. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.
Expect more: We’ll keep pushing the standard, keep evolving the bar until “quant” actually means something in the public code space.
Use with clarity, use with discipline, and always trade your edge.

Triangle Breakout Strategy with TP/SL, EMA Filter📌 Triangle Breakout Strategy with TP/SL, EMA Filters, and Backtest – Explained.
✅ 1. Pattern Detection – Triangle Breakout
The script scans for triangle patterns by detecting local pivot highs and pivot lows.
It uses two recent highs and two recent lows to draw converging trendlines (upper and lower boundaries of the triangle).
If the price breaks above the upper trendline, a bullish breakout signal is generated.
🎯 2. TP (Take Profit) & SL (Stop Loss)
When a bullish breakout is detected:
A buy order is placed using strategy.entry.
TP and SL levels are calculated relative to the current close price:
TP = 3% above the entry price
SL = 1.5% below the entry price
These are defined using strategy.exit.
📊 3. EMA Filter
An optional filter checks if:
Price is above both EMA 20 and EMA 50
Only if this condition is met, the strategy allows a long entry.
You can toggle the filter on or off with useEMAFilter.
📈 4. Backtesting with Strategy Tester
This script uses strategy() instead of indicator() to enable TradingView’s built-in backtest engine.
Every buy entry and exit (based on TP or SL) is recorded.
📌 5. Visuals
EMA 20 and EMA 50 lines are plotted on the chart.
A label is shown when a breakout is detected: "Breakout Up"
Results (profit, win rate, drawdown, etc.) can be viewed in the Strategy Tester panel.
ICT Macro Zone Boxes w/ Individual H/L Tracking v3.1ICT Macro Zones (Grey Box Version
This indicator dynamically highlights key intraday time-based macro sessions using a clean, minimalistic grey box overlay, helping traders align with institutional trading cycles. Inspired by ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts, it tracks real-time highs and lows for each session and optionally extends the zone box after the session ends — making it a precision tool for intraday setups, order flow analysis, and macro-level liquidity sweeps.
### 🔍 **What It Does**
- Plots **six predefined macro sessions** used in Smart Money Concepts:
- AM Macro (09:50–10:10)
- London Close (10:50–11:10)
- Lunch Macro (11:30–13:30)
- PM Macro (14:50–15:10)
- London SB (03:00–04:00)
- PM SB (15:00–16:00)
- Each zone:
- **Tracks high and low dynamically** throughout the session.
- **Draws a consistent grey shaded box** to visualize price boundaries.
- **Displays a label** at the first bar of the session (optional).
- **Optionally extends** the box to the right after the session closes.
### 🧠 **How It Works**
- Uses Pine Script arrays to define each session’s time window, label, and color.
- Detects session entry using `time()` within a New York timezone context.
- High/Low values are updated per bar inside the session window.
- Once a session ends, the box is optionally closed and fixed in place.
- All visual zones use a standardized grey tone for clarity and consistency across charts.
### 🛠️ **Settings**
- **Shade Zone High→Low:** Enable/disable the grey macro box.
- **Extend Box After Session:** Keep the zone visible after it ends.
- **Show Entry Label:** Display a label at the start of each session.
### 🎯 **Why This Script is Unique**
Unlike basic session markers or colored backgrounds, this tool:
- Focuses on **macro moments of liquidity and reversal**, not just open/close times.
- Uses **per-session logic** to individually track price behavior inside key time windows.
- Supports **real-time high/low tracking and clean zone drawing**, ideal for Smart Money and ICT-style strategies.
Perfect — based on your list, here's a **bundle-style description** that not only explains the function of each script but also shows how they **work together** in a Smart Money/ICT workflow. This kind of cross-script explanation is exactly what TradingView wants to see to justify closed-source mashups or interdependent tools.

**Purpose:**
Automatically marks swing highs/lows based on user-defined lookbacks. Tracks whether those levels have been breached or respected.
**Best Used With:**
- Combine with **Turtle Soup** to detect if a swing level was swept, then reversed.
- Use with **Liquidity Grabs** to confirm a grab occurred at a meaningful structural point.
- Align with **Macro Zones** to understand when liquidity events occur within macro session timing.
ICT Turtle Soup (Liquidity Reversal)
**Purpose:**
Implements the classic ICT Turtle Soup model. Looks for swing failure and quick reversals after a liquidity sweep — ideal for catching traps.
Best Used With:
- Confirm with **Liquidity Grabs + OBs** to identify institutional activity at the reversal point.
- Use **Liquidity Levels** to ensure the reversal is happening at valid previous swing highs/lows.
- Amplify probability when pattern appears during **Macro Zones** or near the **First FVG**.
ICT Turtle Soup Ultimate V2
**Purpose:**
An enhanced, multi-layer version of the Turtle Soup setup that includes built-in liquidity checks, OTE levels, structure validation, and customizable visual output.
**Best Used With:**
- Use as an **entry signal generator** when other indicators (e.g., OBs, liquidity grabs) are aligned.
- Pair with **Macro Zones** for high-precision timing.
- Combine with **First FVG** to anticipate price rebalancing before explosive moves.
---
## 🧠 Workflow Example:
1. **Start with Macro Zones** to focus only on institutional trading windows.
2. Look for **Liquidity Grabs or Swing Sweeps** around key highs/lows.
3. Check for a **Turtle Soup Reversal** or **Order Block Reaction** near that level.
4. Confirm confluence with a **Fair Value Gap**.
5. Execute using the **OTE level** from the Liquidity Grabs + OB script.

Add in dynamic stops, trailing exits, and a 5% drawdown circuit breaker, and you’ve got a system that’s as safe as it is aggressive. Whether you’re a newbie or a prop desk pro, this strat’s your ticket to outsmarting the markets. Let’s break down every detail and see why it’s a must-have.
Why Traders Need This Strategy
Futures markets are a gauntlet—fast moves, volatility spikes (like the April 28, 2025 NQ 1k-point drop), and institutional traps that punish the unprepared. Meanwhile, platforms are flooded with low-effort scripts that recycle old ideas with zero innovation. The Adaptive Regime stands tall, offering:
Adaptive Intelligence: Detects market regimes (Trending, Range, Volatile, Quiet) to optimize signals, unlike one-size-fits-all scripts.
Multi-Factor Precision: Combines candlestick patterns, MA trends, RSI, MACD, volume, and HTF confirmation for high-probability trades.
Futures-Optimized Risk: Calculates position sizes based on $ risk (default: $300), with ATR or fixed stops/TPs tailored for ES/MES.
Bulletproof Safety: 5% daily drawdown circuit breaker and trailing stops keep your account intact, even in chaos.
DAFE Visual Mastery: Pulsing Bollinger Band fills, dynamic SL/TP lines, and dual dashboards (metrics + position) make signals crystal-clear and charts a work of art.
Original Craftsmanship: A DAFE creation, built with community passion, not a rehashed clone of generic code.
Traders need this because it’s a complete, adaptive system that blends quant smarts, user-friendly design, and DAFE flair. It’s your edge to trade with confidence, cut through market noise, and leave the copycats in the dust.
Strategy Components
1. Market Regime Detection
The strategy’s brain is its ability to classify market conditions into five regimes, ensuring signals match the environment.
How It Works:
Trending (Regime 1): ADX > 20, fast/slow EMA spread > 0.3x ATR, HTF RSI > 50 or MACD bullish (htf_trend_bull/bear).
Range (Regime 2): ADX < 25, price range < 3% of close, no HTF trend.
Volatile (Regime 3): BB width > 1.5x avg, ATR > 1.2x avg, HTF RSI overbought/oversold.
Quiet (Regime 4): BB width < 0.8x avg, ATR < 0.9x avg.
Other (Regime 5): Default for unclear conditions.
Indicators: ADX (14), BB width (20), ATR (14, 50-bar SMA), HTF RSI (14, daily default), HTF MACD (12,26,9).
Why It’s Brilliant:
Regime detection adapts signals to market context, boosting win rates in trending or volatile conditions.
HTF RSI/MACD add a big-picture filter, rare in basic scripts.
Visualized via gradient background (green for Trending, orange for Range, red for Volatile, gray for Quiet, navy for Other).
2. Multi-Factor Signal Scoring
Entries are driven by a weighted scoring system that combines candlestick patterns, trend, momentum, and volume for robust signals.
Candlestick Patterns:
Bullish: Engulfing (0.5), hammer (0.4 in Range, 0.2 else), morning star (0.2), piercing (0.2), double bottom (0.3 in Volatile, 0.15 else). Must be near support (low ≤ 1.01x 20-bar low) with volume spike (>1.5x 20-bar avg).
Bearish: Engulfing (0.5), shooting star (0.4 in Range, 0.2 else), evening star (0.2), dark cloud (0.2), double top (0.3 in Volatile, 0.15 else). Must be near resistance (high ≥ 0.99x 20-bar high) with volume spike.
Logic: Patterns are weighted higher in specific regimes (e.g., hammer in Range, double bottom in Volatile).
Additional Factors:
Trend: Fast EMA (20) > slow EMA (50) + 0.5x ATR (trend_bull, +0.2); opposite for trend_bear.
RSI: RSI (14) < 30 (rsi_bull, +0.15); > 70 (rsi_bear, +0.15).
MACD: MACD line > signal (12,26,9, macd_bull, +0.15); opposite for macd_bear.
Volume: ATR > 1.2x 50-bar avg (vol_expansion, +0.1).
HTF Confirmation: HTF RSI < 70 and MACD bullish (htf_bull_confirm, +0.2); RSI > 30 and MACD bearish (htf_bear_confirm, +0.2).
Scoring:
bull_score = sum of bullish factors; bear_score = sum of bearish. Entry requires score ≥ 1.0.
Example: Bullish engulfing (0.5) + trend_bull (0.2) + rsi_bull (0.15) + htf_bull_confirm (0.2) = 1.05, triggers long.
Why It’s Brilliant:
Multi-factor scoring ensures signals are confirmed by multiple market dynamics, reducing false positives.
Regime-specific weights make patterns more relevant (e.g., hammers shine in Range markets).
HTF confirmation aligns with the big picture, a quant edge over simplistic scripts.
3. Futures-Tuned Risk Management
The risk system is built for futures, calculating position sizes based on $ risk and offering flexible stops/TPs.
Position Sizing:
Logic: Risk per trade (default: $300) ÷ (stop distance in points * point value) = contracts, capped at max_contracts (default: 5). Point value = tick value (e.g., $12.5 for ES) * ticks per point (4) * contract multiplier (1 for ES, 0.1 for MES).
Example: $300 risk, 8-point stop, ES ($50/point) → 0.75 contracts, rounded to 1.
Impact: Precise sizing prevents over-leverage, critical for micro contracts like MES.
Stops and Take-Profits:
Fixed: Default stop = 8 points, TP = 16 points (2:1 reward/risk).
ATR-Based: Stop = 1.5x ATR (default), TP = 3x ATR, enabled via use_atr_for_stops.
Logic: Stops set at swing low/high ± stop distance; TPs at 2x stop distance from entry.
Impact: ATR stops adapt to volatility, while fixed stops suit stable markets.
Trailing Stops:
Logic: Activates at 50% of TP distance. Trails at close ± 1.5x ATR (atr_multiplier). Longs: max(trail_stop_long, close - ATR * 1.5); shorts: min(trail_stop_short, close + ATR * 1.5).
Impact: Locks in profits during trends, a game-changer in volatile sessions.
Circuit Breaker:
Logic: Pauses trading if daily drawdown > 5% (daily_drawdown = (max_equity - equity) / max_equity).
Impact: Protects capital during black swan events (e.g., April 27, 2025 ES slippage).
Why It’s Brilliant:
Futures-specific inputs (tick value, multiplier) make it plug-and-play for ES/MES.
Trailing stops and circuit breaker add pro-level safety, rare in off-the-shelf scripts.
Flexible stops (ATR or fixed) suit different trading styles.
4. Trade Entry and Exit Logic
Entries and exits are precise, driven by bull_score/bear_score and protected by drawdown checks.
Entry Conditions:
Long: bull_score ≥ 1.0, no position (position_size <= 0), drawdown < 5% (not pause_trading). Calculates contracts, sets stop at swing low - stop points, TP at 2x stop distance.
Short: bear_score ≥ 1.0, position_size >= 0, drawdown < 5%. Stop at swing high + stop points, TP at 2x stop distance.
Logic: Tracks entry_regime for PNL arrays. Closes opposite positions before entering.
Exit Conditions:
Stop-Loss/Take-Profit: Hits stop or TP (strategy.exit).
Trailing Stop: Activates at 50% TP, trails by ATR * 1.5.
Emergency Exit: Closes if price breaches stop (close < long_stop_price or close > short_stop_price).
Reset: Clears stop/TP prices when flat (position_size = 0).
Why It’s Brilliant:
Score-based entries ensure multi-factor confirmation, filtering out weak signals.
Trailing stops maximize profits in trends, unlike static exits in basic scripts.
Emergency exits add an extra safety layer, critical for futures volatility.
5. DAFE Visuals
The visuals are pure DAFE magic, blending function with cyberpunk flair to make signals intuitive and charts stunning.
Shimmering Bollinger Band Fill:
Display: BB basis (20, white), upper/lower (green/red, 45% transparent). Fill pulses (30–50 alpha) by regime, with glow (60–95 alpha) near bands (close ≥ 0.995x upper or ≤ 1.005x lower).
Purpose: Highlights volatility and key levels with a futuristic glow.
Visuals make complex regimes and signals instantly clear, even for newbies.
Pulsing effects and regime-specific colors add a DAFE signature, setting it apart from generic scripts.
BB glow emphasizes tradeable levels, enhancing decision-making.
Chart Background (Regime Heatmap):
Green — Trending Market: Strong, sustained price movement in one direction. The market is in a trend phase—momentum follows through.
Orange — Range-Bound: Market is consolidating or moving sideways, with no clear up/down trend. Great for mean reversion setups.
Red — Volatile Regime: High volatility, heightened risk, and larger/faster price swings—trade with caution.
Gray — Quiet/Low Volatility: Market is calm and inactive, with small moves—often poor conditions for most strategies.
Navy — Other/Neutral: Regime is uncertain or mixed; signals may be less reliable.
Bollinger Bands Glow (Dynamic Fill):
Neon Red Glow — Warning!: Price is near or breaking above the upper band; momentum is overstretched, watch for overbought conditions or reversals.
Bright Green Glow — Opportunity!: Price is near or breaking below the lower band; market could be oversold, prime for bounce or reversal.
Trend Green Fill — Trending Regime: Fills between bands with green when the market is trending, showing clear momentum.
Gold/Yellow Fill — Range Regime: Fills with gold/aqua in range conditions, showing the market is sideways/oscillating.
Magenta/Red Fill — Volatility Spike: Fills with vivid magenta/red during highly volatile regimes.
Blue Fill — Neutral/Quiet: A soft blue glow for other or uncertain market states.
Moving Averages:
Display: Blue fast EMA (20), red slow EMA (50), 2px.
Purpose: Shows trend direction, with trend_dir requiring ATR-scaled spread.
Dynamic SL/TP Lines:
Display: Pulsing colors (red SL, green TP for Trending; yellow/orange for Range, etc.), 3px, with pulse_alpha for shimmer.
Purpose: Tracks stops/TPs in real-time, color-coded by regime.
6. Dual Dashboards
Two dashboards deliver real-time insights, making the strat a quant command center.
Bottom-Left Metrics Dashboard (2x13):
Metrics: Mode (Active/Paused), trend (Bullish/Bearish/Neutral), ATR, ATR avg, volume spike (YES/NO), RSI (value + Oversold/Overbought/Neutral), HTF RSI, HTF trend, last signal (Buy/Sell/None), regime, bull score.
Display: Black (29% transparent), purple title, color-coded (green for bullish, red for bearish).
Purpose: Consolidates market context and signal strength.
Top-Right Position Dashboard (2x7):
Metrics: Regime, position side (Long/Short/None), position PNL ($), SL, TP, daily PNL ($).
Display: Black (29% transparent), purple title, color-coded (lime for Long, red for Short).
Purpose: Tracks live trades and profitability.
Why It’s Brilliant:
Dual dashboards cover market context and trade status, a rare feature.
Color-coding and concise metrics guide beginners (e.g., green “Buy” = go).
Real-time PNL and SL/TP visibility empower disciplined trading.
7. Performance Tracking
Logic: Arrays (regime_pnl_long/short, regime_win/loss_long/short) track PNL and win/loss by regime (1–5). Updated on trade close (barstate.isconfirmed).
Purpose: Prepares for future adaptive thresholds (e.g., adjust bull_score min based on regime performance).
Why It’s Brilliant: Lays the groundwork for self-optimizing logic, a quant edge over static scripts.
Key Features
Regime-Adaptive: Optimizes signals for Trending, Range, Volatile, Quiet markets.
Futures-Optimized: Precise sizing for ES/MES with tick-based risk inputs.
Multi-Factor Signals: Candlestick patterns, RSI, MACD, and HTF confirmation for robust entries.

CYCLE BY RiotWolftradingDescription of the "CYCLE" Indicator
The "CYCLE" indicator is a custom Pine Script v5 script for TradingView that visualizes cyclic patterns in price action, dividing the trading day into specific sessions and 90-minute quarters (Q1-Q4). It is designed to identify and display market phases (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, and Continuation/Reversal) along with key support and resistance levels within those sessions. Additionally, it allows customization of boxes, lines, labels, and colors to suit user preferences.
Main Features
Cycle Phases:
Accumulation (1900-0100): Represents the phase where large operators accumulate positions.
Manipulation (0100-0700): Identifies potential manipulative moves to mislead retail traders.
Distribution (0700-1300): The phase where large operators distribute their positions.
Continuation/Reversal (1300-1900): Indicates whether the price continues the trend or reverses.
90-Minute Quarters (Q1-Q4):
Divides each 6-hour cycle (360 minutes) into four 90-minute quarters (Q1: 00:00-01:30, Q2: 01:30-03:00, Q3: 03:00-04:30, Q4: 04:30-06:00 UTC).
Each quarter is displayed with a colored box (Q1: light purple, Q2: light blue, Q3: light gray, Q4: light pink) and labels (defaulted to black).
Support and Resistance Visualization:
Draws boxes or lines (based on settings) showing the high and low levels of each session.
Optionally displays accumulated volume at the highs and lows within the boxes.
Daily Lines and Last 3 Boxes:
How to Use the Indicator
Step 1: Add the Indicator to TradingView
Open TradingView and select the chart where you want to apply the indicator (e.g., UMG9OOR on a 5-minute timeframe, as shown in the screenshot).
Go to the Pine Editor (at the bottom of the TradingView interface).
Copy and paste the provided code.
Click Compile and then Add to Chart.
Step 2: Configure the Indicator
Click on the indicator name on the chart ("CYCLE") and select Settings (or double-click the name).
Adjust the options based on your needs:
Cycle Phases: Enable/disable phases (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, Continuation/Reversal) and adjust their time slots if needed.
90-Minute Quarters: Enable/disable quarters (Q1-Q4).
Step 3: Interpret the Indicator
Identify Cycle Phases:
Observe the red boxes indicating the phases (Accumulation, Manipulation, etc.).
The high and low levels within each phase are potential support/resistance zones.
If volume is enabled, pay attention to the accumulated volume at highs and lows, as it may indicate the strength of those levels.
Use the 90-Minute Quarters (Q1-Q4):
The colored boxes (Q1-Q4) divide the day into 90-minute segments.
Each quarter shows the price range (high and low) during that period.
Use these boxes to identify price patterns within each quarter, such as breakouts or consolidations.
The labels (Q1, Q2, etc.) help you track time and anticipate potential moves in the next quarter.
Analyze Support and Resistance:
The high and low levels of each phase/quarter act as support and resistance.
Daily lines (if enabled) show key levels from the previous day, useful for planning entries/exits.
The "last 3 boxes below price" (if enabled) highlight potential support levels the price might target.
Avoid Manipulation:
During the Manipulation phase (0100-0700), be cautious of sharp moves or false breakouts.
Use the high/low levels of this phase to identify potential traps (as explained in your first question about manipulation candles).
Step 4: Trading Strategy
Entries and Exits:
Support/Resistance: Use the high/low levels of phases and quarters to set entry or exit points.
For example, if the price bounces off a Q1 support level, consider a buy.
Breakouts: If the price breaks a high/low of a quarter (e.g., Q2), wait for confirmation to enter in the direction of the breakout.
Volume: If accumulated volume is high near a key level, that level may be more significant.
Risk Management:
Place stop-loss orders below lows (for buys) or above highs (for sells) identified by the indicator.
Avoid trading during the Manipulation phase unless you have a specific strategy to handle false breakouts.
Time Context:
Use the quarters (Q1-Q4) to plan your trades based on time. For example, if Q3 is typically volatile in your market, prepare for larger moves between 03:00-04:30 UTC.
Step 5: Adjustments and Testing
Test on Different Timeframes: The indicator is set for a 5-minute timeframe (as in the screenshot), but you can test it on other timeframes (e.g., 1-minute, 15-minute) by adjusting the time slots if needed.
Adjust Colors and Styles: If the default colors are not visible on your chart, change them for better clarity.
---
📌 1. **Accumulation: Strong Institutional Activity**
- During the **accumulation phase, we see **high volume: 82.773K, which suggests strong buying interest**, likely from institutional players.
- This sets the base for the following upward move in price.
---
📌 2. **Manipulation: False Breakout with Lower Volume**
- Later, there's a manipulation phase where price breaks above previous highs, but the volume (71.814K) is **lower than during accumulation**.
- This implies that buyers are not as aggressive as before—no real demandbehind the breakout.
- It’s likely a bull trap, where smart money is selling into the breakout to exit their positions.
---
### 📌 3. Distribution: Weakness and Lack of Demand
- The market enters a distribution phase, and volume drops even further (only 7.914K).
- Price struggles to go higher, and you start seeing rejections at the top.
- This shows that demand is drying up, and smart money is offloading positions**—not accumulating anymore.
---
### 💡 Why Take the Short Here?
- Volume is not increasing with new highs—showing weak demand**.
- The manipulation volume is weaker than the accumulation volume, confirming the breakout was likely false.
- Structure starts to break down (Q levels falling), which confirms weakness.
- This creates a high-probability short setup:
- **Entry:** after confirmation of distribution and structural breakdown.
- **Stop loss:** above the manipulation high.
- **Target:** down toward previous lows or value zones.
---
### ✅ Conclusion
Since the manipulation volume failed to exceed the accumulation volume, the breakout lacked real strength. Combined with decreasing volume in the distribution phase, this indicates fading demand and supply taking control—which justifies entering a short position.
Supertrend X2 + CalcSize Calculator:
Size Calculator is a risk management tool that helps traders position themselves intelligently by calculating optimal position size, stop loss, and take profit levels based on account capital, ATR volatility, and personal risk tolerance. It takes the guesswork out of sizing so you can focus on execution.
Features:
✅ Risk-based position sizing
✅ ATR-based stop loss & take profit levels
✅ Dynamic leverage estimation
✅ Support for long and short positions
✅ Visual display of key levels and metrics via table
✅ Works across any timeframe with locked timeframe support
How It Works:
This tool computes the ideal position size as a % of account capital based on how much you're willing to risk per trade and how far your stop loss is (in ATR units). It calculates corresponding stop loss and take profit prices, and visually plots them along with a floating table of metrics. You can lock the timeframe used for ATR and price, keeping your risk logic stable even when changing chart views.
Customizable Inputs:
Account capital and risk tolerance
ATR-based stop loss & take profit multiples
Trade direction (Long or Short)
ATR period and locked timeframe
Optional detailed metrics display
Dual SuperTrend:
The Dual Supertrend indicator enhances the classic Supertrend strategy by layering two customizable Supertrend signals with independent ATR settings. This setup gives you a deeper, more nuanced read on trend strength and potential entry zones.
Features:
✅ Two Supertrend lines (each with adjustable ATR periods and multipliers)
✅ Optional Heikin Ashi candle smoothing for noise reduction
✅ Color-coded trend background for fast visual analysis
✅ Multi-timeframe trend table overlay (customizable)
✅ Built-in signal logic to identify "Long", "Short", or "N/A" zones
✅ Built-in alerts from Long and Short Entry Zones
How It Works:
The script calculates two Supertrend levels using separate ATR settings. Trend direction is derived from the relationship between price and each band. When the larger (slower) Supertrend flips and the smaller (faster) confirms, it signals a potential entry. The multi-timeframe table helps you align trades across different timeframes.
Customizable Inputs:
ATR Periods & Multipliers for both Supertrends
Timeframes for entry zone detection (up to 4)
Enable/disable Heikin Ashi candles for smoother trend detection
RSI Divergence Strategy - AliferCryptoStrategy Overview
The RSI Divergence Strategy is designed to identify potential reversals by detecting regular bullish and bearish divergences between price action and the Relative Strength Index (RSI). It automatically enters positions when a divergence is confirmed and manages risk with configurable stop-loss and take-profit levels.
Key Features
Automatic Divergence Detection: Scans for RSI pivot lows/highs vs. price pivots using user-defined lookback windows and bar ranges.
Dual SL/TP Methods:
- Swing-based: Stops placed a configurable percentage beyond the most recent swing high/low.
- ATR-based: Stops placed at a multiple of Average True Range, with a separate risk/reward multiplier.
Long and Short Entries: Buys on bullish divergences; sells short on bearish divergences.
Fully Customizable: Input groups for RSI, divergence, swing, ATR, and general SL/TP settings.
Visual Plotting: Marks divergences on chart and plots stop-loss (red) and take-profit (green) lines for active trades.
Alerts: Built-in alert conditions for both bullish and bearish RSI divergences.
Detailed Logic
RSI Calculation: Computes RSI of chosen source over a specified period.
Pivot Detection:
- Identifies RSI pivot lows/highs by scanning a lookback window to the left and right.
- Uses ta.barssince to ensure pivots are separated by a minimum/maximum number of bars.
Divergence Confirmation:
- Bullish: Price makes a lower low while RSI makes a higher low.
- Bearish: Price makes a higher high while RSI makes a lower high.
Entry:
- Opens a Long position when bullish divergence is true.
- Opens a Short position when bearish divergence is true.
Stop-Loss & Take-Profit:
- Swing Method: Computes the recent swing high/low then adjusts by a percentage margin.
- ATR Method: Uses the current ATR × multiplier applied to the entry price.
- Take-Profit: Calculated as entry price ± (risk × R/R ratio).
Exit Orders: Uses strategy.exit to place bracket orders (stop + limit) for both long and short positions.
Inputs and Configuration
RSI Settings: Length & price source for the RSI.
Divergence Settings: Pivot lookback parameters and valid bar ranges.
SL/TP Settings: Choice between Swing or ATR method.
Swing Settings: Swing lookback length, margin (%), and risk/reward ratio.
ATR Settings: ATR length, stop multiplier, and risk/reward ratio.
Usage Notes
Adjust the Pivot Lookback and Range values to suit the volatility and timeframe of your market.
Use higher ATR multipliers for wider stops in choppy conditions, or tighten swing margins in trending markets.
Backtest different R/R ratios to find the balance between win rate and reward.

5ma + O’Neil & Minervini Buy ConditionIndicator Overview
5ma + O’Neil & Minervini Buy Condition is an original TradingView indicator that extends beyond a simple collection of standard moving averages by offering:
- Five Fully Independent Lines : Each of MA1–MA5 can be configured as SMA, EMA, WMA, or VWMA with its own period and data source. This level of customization unlocks unique combinations no existing script provides.
- Synergy of Multiple Timeframes : Default settings (10, 21, 50, 200, 325) reflect ultra‑short, short, medium, long, and volume‑weighted long‑term perspectives. The layered structure functions as a multi‑filter, sharpening entry signals and trend confirmation beyond any single MA.
- Integrated Buy Conditions : Built‑in O’Neil and Minervini buy filters use fixed SMA‑based rules (50 & 200 SMA rising within 15% of 52‑week high; 10 > 21 > 50 SMA rising within high/low thresholds), plus a combined condition highlighting when both methods align.
- Clean Visualization & Style Controls : Background coloring for each buy condition appears only in the Style tab under clearly named parameters (O’Neil Buy Condition, Minervini Buy Condition, Both Conditions). MA lines support transparent default colors and customizable line width for optimal readability without clutter.
Calculation & Logic
SMA: (P₁ + P₂ + … + Pₙ) ÷ N
EMA: α = 2 ÷ (N + 1)
EMA_today = (Price_today – EMA_yesterday) × α + EMA_yesterday
WMA: (P₁×N + P₂×(N–1) + … + Pₙ×1) ÷
VWMA: Σ(Pᵢ×Vᵢ) ÷ Σ(Vᵢ) for i = 1…N
```
Buy Condition Logic
- O’Neil: Price > 50 SMA & 200 SMA (both rising) **and** within 15% of the 52‑week high.
- Minervini : 10 SMA > 21 SMA > 50 SMA (both short‑term SMAs rising) **and** within 25% of the 52‑week high **and** at least 25% above the 52‑week low.
- Combined : Both O’Neil and Minervini conditions true.
Usage Examples
1. Short‑Mid Cross : Observe MA1/MA2 crossover while MA3/MA4 confirm trend strength.
2. Volume‑Weighted Long‑Term : Use VWMA as MA5 to filter institutional‑strength pullbacks.
3. Multi‑Filter Entry : Look for purple background (Both Conditions) on daily chart as high‑confidence entry.

ICT SMC Liquidity Grabs and OBsICT SMC Liquidity Grabs + OB + Fibonacci OTE Levels
Smart Money Concepts Trading Assistant
This script is built for traders who follow ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and Smart Money Concepts. It intelligently combines three critical components of SMC trading: Liquidity Grabs, Order Blocks, and Fibonacci-based Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) zones — giving traders visual cues for potential high-probability reversals and entry points.
🔍 What This Script Does:
Detects Liquidity Grabs
Identifies swing highs/lows where price sweeps liquidity, then immediately reverses.
Labels them with orange markers when price takes out previous highs/lows but closes back inside.
Draws Order Blocks
After a liquidity grab, the script looks for strong bullish or bearish candles and automatically highlights the OB zone.
These OB zones are visualized with transparent colored boxes extending several bars forward.
Plots Fibonacci OTE Levels
Uses recent swing high/low pivots to dynamically draw customizable OTE retracement levels (e.g., 62% and 75%) for both long and short setups.
Highlights Optimal Entry Zones
Marks valid OTE-based buy/sell opportunities only when:
Liquidity has been taken,
Price enters the OTE zone,
And a strong confirming candle appears.
Adds visual zones, trade labels, and optional alerts for each qualified entry.
Includes Take Profit Targets
Automatically calculates take-profit levels based on previous structure and risk-reward ratios.
TP1 is the previous swing, and TP2 is an extended R-multiple (customizable by user).
⚙️ Customization Options:
Toggle each feature (Liquidity Grabs, OBs, Fibonacci Levels)
Adjust Fibonacci levels (default: 62% and 75%)
Set lookback period for liquidity checks
Customize the R-multiple for TP2 levels
💡 How to Use:
Enable desired features from the input panel.
Watch for Buy/Sell OTE zones highlighted in green/red.
Confirm with liquidity sweep and OB support for stronger signals.
Use the automatically generated TP levels to manage risk.
🚀 What Makes It Unique:
Unlike other open-source mashups, this script synchronizes multiple SMC concepts into a single tool that:
Waits for high-confidence conditions (not just blind fib or OB detection)
Validates entries using multiple confluences
Visually marks actionable setups
Automates trade management zones
Whether you're trend-trading, scalping, or swing trading ICT-style, this tool offers a streamlined, smart-money-aligned workflow directly on your chart.

Smart Money Pivot Strategy [Jason Kasei]This strategy is designed to identify key pivot points (Pivot High and Pivot Low) in the market and leverage the "Smart Money" concept to capture price breakout opportunities. It supports both long and short trades, offering customizable stop-loss (SL) and take-profit (TP) settings, while visually plotting pivot points and breakout signals on the chart.
Core Features
Pivot Point Detection:
Utilizes ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow functions to detect the highest (Pivot High) and lowest (Pivot Low) points within a specified period (default: 20 bars).
Trading Signals:
Long Signal: Triggered when the price breaks above a previous Pivot High, indicating a potential uptrend.
Short Signal: Triggered when the price breaks below a previous Pivot Low, indicating a potential downtrend.
How It Works
Detects Pivot High (PH) and Pivot Low (PL) over the specified period and records their price and time.
Triggers a long entry when the price breaks above a Pivot High and a short entry when it falls below a Pivot Low.
Sets exit conditions automatically based on predefined SL and TP percentages after entry.
Plots breakout points and levels on the chart for analysis.
Considerations
The strategy relies on accurate pivot point detection; adjust the period parameter based on market volatility.
In highly volatile markets, consider widening the stop loss to avoid frequent triggering.
Combine with other indicators or analysis methods to validate signals and avoid blind trading.
Long Term Profitable Swing | AbbasA Story of a Profitable Swing Trading Strategy
Imagine you're sailing across the ocean, looking for the perfect wave to ride. Swing trading is quite similar—you're navigating the stock market, searching for the ideal moments to enter and exit trades. This strategy, created by Abbas, helps you find those waves and ride them effectively to profitable outcomes.
🌊 Finding the Perfect Wave (Entry)
Our journey begins with two simple signs that tell us a great trading opportunity is forming:
- Moving Averages: We use two lines that follow price trends—the faster one (EMA 16) reacts quickly to recent price moves, and the slower one (EMA 30) gives us a longer-term perspective. When the faster line crosses above the slower line, it's like a clear signal saying, "Hey! The wave is rising, and prices might move higher!"
- RSI Momentum: Next, we check a tool called the RSI, which measures momentum (how strongly prices are moving). If the RSI number is above 50, it means there's enough strength behind this rising wave to carry us forward.
When both signals appear together, that's our green light. It's time to jump on our surfboard and start riding this promising wave.
⚓ Safely Riding the Wave (Risk Management)
While we're riding this wave, we want to ensure we're safe from sudden surprises. To do this, we use something called the Average True Range (ATR), which measures how volatile (or bumpy) the price movements are:
- Stop-Loss: To avoid falling too hard, we set a safety line (stop-loss) 8 times the ATR below our entry price. This helps ensure we exit if the wave suddenly turns against us, protecting us from heavy losses.
- Take Profit: We also set a goal to exit the trade at 11 times the ATR above our entry. This way, we capture significant profits when the wave reaches a nice high point.
🌟 Multiple Rides, Bigger Adventures
This strategy allows us to take multiple positions simultaneously—like riding several waves at once, up to 5. Each trade we make uses only 10% of our trading capital, keeping risks manageable and giving us multiple opportunities to win big.
🗺️ Easy to Follow Settings
Here are the basic settings we use:
- Fast EMA**: 16
- Slow EMA**: 30
- RSI Length**: 9
- RSI Threshold**: 50
- ATR Length**: 21
- ATR Stop-Loss Multiplier**: 8
- ATR Take-Profit Multiplier**: 11
These settings are flexible—you can adjust them to better suit different markets or your personal trading style.
🎉 Riding the Waves of Success
This simple yet powerful swing trading approach helps you confidently enter trades, clearly know when to exit, and effectively manage your risk. It’s a reliable way to ride market waves, capture profits, and minimize losses.
Happy trading, and may you find many profitable waves to ride! 🌊✨
Please test, and take into account that it depends on taking multiple longs within the swing, and you only get to invest 25/30% of your equity.
Mswing HommaThe Mswing is a momentum oscillator that calculates the rate of price change over 20 and 50 periods (days/weeks). Apart from quantifying momentum, it can be used for assessing relative strength, sectoral rotation & entry/exit signals.
Quantifying Momentum Strength
The Mswing's relationship with its EMA (e.g., 5-period or 9-period) is used for momentum analysis:
• M Swing >0 and Above EMA: Momentum is positive and accelerating (ideal for entries).
• M Swing >0 and Below EMA: Momentum is positive but decelerating (caution).
• M Swing <0 and Above EMA: Momentum is negative but improving (watch for reversals).
• M Swing <0 and Below EMA: Momentum is negative and worsening (exit or avoid).
Relative Strength Scanning (M Score)
Sort stocks by their M Swing using TradingView’s Pine scanner.
Compare the Mswing scores of indices/sectors to allocate capital to stronger groups (e.g., renewables vs. traditional energy).
Stocks with strong Mswing scores tend to outperform during bullish phases, while weak ones collapse faster in downtrends.
Entry and Exit Signals
Entry: Buy when Mswing crosses above 0 + price breaks key moving averages (50-day SMA). Use Mswing >0 to confirm valid breakouts. Buy dips when Mswing holds above EMA during retracements.
Exit: Mswing can be used for exiting a stock in 2 ways:
• Sell in Strength: Mswing >4 (overbought).
• Sell in Weakness: Mswing <0 + price below 50-day SMA.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis
• Daily: For swing trades.
• Weekly: For trend confirmation.
• Monthly: For long-term portfolio adjustments.
Fibonacci & Bollinger Bands StrategyTrading System: Fibonacci & Bollinger Bands Strategy
1. Session Timing
Trade only from 1 PM onwards.
Identify the first candle on the 1 PM vertical line to set the market direction.
If it's a bullish candle, look for buy opportunities.
If it's a bearish candle, look for sell opportunities.
2. Fibonacci Retracement as a Measuring Tool
Identify the recent swing high and swing low before the 1 PM session.
Draw Fibonacci retracement levels from low to high (for buys) or high to low (for sells).
Key retracement levels to watch: 0.0%, 50.0%, and 100.0%.
Entries can be placed at 0.0% or 50.0%, aiming for a move toward 100.0% retracement.
3. Bollinger Bands Confirmation
If the Bollinger Bands are above price, expect a downward move (sell).
If the Bollinger Bands are below price, expect an upward move (buy).
Use this as additional confirmation for your Fibonacci-based trade.
4. Entry & Exit Rules
Entry:
If the 1 PM candle confirms a bullish bias, enter long near Fibonacci 0.0% or 50.0%.
If the 1 PM candle confirms a bearish bias, enter short near Fibonacci 0.0% or 50.0%.
Stop Loss: Below (for buys) or above (for sells) the swing low/high used for Fibonacci.
Take Profit: Target 100.0% retracement level or next key resistance/support.
5. Risk Management
Risk 1-2% per trade.
Avoid trading if price is too far from Fibonacci levels.
Confirm setup with Bollinger Bands alignment.
Mogwai Method with RSI and EMA - BTCUSD 15mThis is a custom TradingView indicator designed for trading Bitcoin (BTCUSD) on a 15-minute timeframe. It’s based on the Mogwai Method—a mean-reversion strategy—enhanced with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) for momentum confirmation. The indicator generates buy and sell signals, visualized as green and red triangle arrows on the chart, to help identify potential entry and exit points in the volatile cryptocurrency market.
Components
Bollinger Bands (BB):
Purpose: Identifies overextended price movements, signaling potential reversions to the mean.
Parameters:
Length: 20 periods (standard for mean-reversion).
Multiplier: 2.2 (slightly wider than the default 2.0 to suit BTCUSD’s volatility).
Role:
Buy signal when price drops below the lower band (oversold).
Sell signal when price rises above the upper band (overbought).
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
Purpose: Confirms momentum to filter out false signals from Bollinger Bands.
Parameters:
Length: 14 periods (classic setting, effective for crypto).
Overbought Level: 70 (price may be overextended upward).
Oversold Level: 30 (price may be overextended downward).
Role:
Buy signal requires RSI < 30 (oversold).
Sell signal requires RSI > 70 (overbought).
Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) (Plotted but not currently in signal logic):
Purpose: Provides trend context (included in the script for visualization, optional for signal filtering).
Parameters:
Fast EMA: 9 periods (short-term trend).
Slow EMA: 50 periods (longer-term trend).
Role: Can be re-added to filter signals (e.g., buy only when Fast EMA > Slow EMA).
Signals (Triangles):
Buy Signal: Green upward triangle below the bar when price is below the lower Bollinger Band and RSI is below 30.
Sell Signal: Red downward triangle above the bar when price is above the upper Bollinger Band and RSI is above 70.
How It Works
The indicator combines Bollinger Bands and RSI to spot mean-reversion opportunities:
Buy Condition: Price breaks below the lower Bollinger Band (indicating oversold conditions), and RSI confirms this with a reading below 30.
Sell Condition: Price breaks above the upper Bollinger Band (indicating overbought conditions), and RSI confirms this with a reading above 70.
The strategy assumes that extreme price movements in BTCUSD will often revert to the mean, especially in choppy or ranging markets.
Visual Elements
Green Upward Triangles: Appear below the candlestick to indicate a buy signal.
Red Downward Triangles: Appear above the candlestick to indicate a sell signal.
Bollinger Bands: Gray lines (upper, middle, lower) plotted for reference.
EMAs: Blue (Fast) and Orange (Slow) lines for trend visualization.
How to Use the Indicator
Setup
Open TradingView:
Log into TradingView and select a BTCUSD chart from a supported exchange (e.g., Binance, Coinbase, Bitfinex).
Set Timeframe:
Switch the chart to a 15-minute timeframe (15m).
Add the Indicator:
Open the Pine Editor (bottom panel in TradingView).
Copy and paste the script provided.
Click “Add to Chart” to apply it.
Verify Display:
You should see Bollinger Bands (gray), Fast EMA (blue), Slow EMA (orange), and buy/sell triangles when conditions are met.
Trading Guidelines
Buy Signal (Green Triangle Below Bar):
What It Means: Price is oversold, potentially ready to bounce back toward the Bollinger Band middle line.
Action:
Enter a long position (buy BTCUSD).
Set a take-profit near the middle Bollinger Band (bb_middle) or a resistance level.
Place a stop-loss 1-2% below the entry (or based on ATR, e.g., ta.atr(14) * 2).
Best Context: Works well in ranging markets; avoid during strong downtrends.
Sell Signal (Red Triangle Above Bar):
What It Means: Price is overbought, potentially ready to drop back toward the middle line.
Action:
Enter a short position (sell BTCUSD) or exit a long position.
Set a take-profit near the middle Bollinger Band or a support level.
Place a stop-loss 1-2% above the entry.
Best Context: Effective in ranging markets; avoid during strong uptrends.
Trend Filter (Optional):
To reduce false signals in trending markets, you can modify the script:
Add and ema_fast > ema_slow to the buy condition (only buy in uptrends).
Add and ema_fast < ema_slow to the sell condition (only sell in downtrends).
Check the Fast EMA (blue) vs. Slow EMA (orange) alignment visually.
Tips for BTCUSD on 15-Minute Charts
Volatility: BTCUSD can be erratic. If signals are too frequent, increase bb_mult (e.g., to 2.5) or adjust RSI levels (e.g., 75/25).
Confirmation: Use volume spikes or candlestick patterns (e.g., doji, engulfing) to confirm signals.
Time of Day: Mean-reversion works best during low-volume periods (e.g., Asian session in crypto).
Backtesting: Use TradingView’s Strategy Tester (convert to a strategy by adding entry/exit logic) to evaluate performance with historical BTCUSD data up to March 13, 2025.
Risk Management
Position Size: Risk no more than 1-2% of your account per trade.
Stop Losses: Always use stops to protect against BTCUSD’s sudden moves.
Avoid Overtrading: Wait for clear signals; don’t force trades in choppy or unclear conditions.
Example Scenario
Chart: BTCUSD, 15-minute timeframe.
Buy Signal: Price drops to $58,000, below the lower Bollinger Band, RSI at 28. A green triangle appears.
Action: Buy at $58,000, target $59,000 (middle BB), stop at $57,500.
Sell Signal: Price rises to $60,500, above the upper Bollinger Band, RSI at 72. A red triangle appears.
Action: Sell at $60,500, target $59,500 (middle BB), stop at $61,000.
This indicator is tailored for mean-reversion trading on BTCUSD. Let me know if you’d like to tweak it further (e.g., add filters, alerts, or alternative indicators)!
Consecutive Close Tracker (CCT)Consecutive Close Tracker (CCT) Indicator
The Consecutive Close Tracker (CCT) is a powerful momentum and breakout detection tool designed to identify consecutive bullish and bearish closes, potential reversals, and breakout points. By tracking consecutive candle closes and plotting key levels, this indicator provides traders with visual cues to recognize trend continuations, reversals, and breakout opportunities effectively.
🔹 Key Features of CCT
1️⃣ Consecutive Move Lines (Green/Red/Yellow Lines)
Tracks three consecutive bullish or bearish closes.
If the fourth candle confirms the trend, a green line (bullish) or red line (bearish) is drawn.
If the fourth candle fails to confirm, a yellow line is drawn, signaling potential indecision.
Helps traders spot trend continuations and exhaustion points.
2️⃣ Reversal Detection Lines (Cyan & Light Red)
Identifies bullish and bearish reversals based on three higher/lower closes followed by a reversal.
A cyan line indicates a bullish reversal, while a light red line signals a bearish reversal.
Useful for traders looking for trend reversals and key turning points.
3️⃣ Breakout Line (Dynamic Resistance/Support Level)
Automatically calculates a breakout level based on the previous timeframe’s open and close.
Can be customized to use different timeframes (e.g., hourly, daily, weekly).
Acts as a dynamic resistance or support level, helping traders determine breakout opportunities.
🔍 How to Use the Indicator?
✅ 1. Spotting Trend Continuations with Consecutive Move Lines
Green Line: Three consecutive bullish closes followed by a fourth higher close.
🚀 Indicates strong buying pressure & potential uptrend continuation.
Red Line: Three consecutive bearish closes followed by a fourth lower close.
📉 Indicates strong selling pressure & potential downtrend continuation.
Yellow Line: Three consecutive closes, but the fourth candle fails to confirm.
⚠️ Signals possible indecision or trend exhaustion.
🔥 Best Strategy:
If a green line appears near support, consider long entries.
If a red line appears near resistance, consider short entries.
If a yellow line appears, wait for further confirmation before entering a trade.
✅ 2. Identifying Trend Reversals with Reversal Lines
Cyan Line: A bearish trend with three consecutive lower closes, followed by a bullish candle → Possible uptrend reversal.
Light Red Line: A bullish trend with three consecutive higher closes, followed by a bearish candle → Possible downtrend reversal.
🔥 Best Strategy:
If a cyan line appears near a major support level, look for long entry opportunities.
If a light red line appears near resistance, prepare for a potential short entry.
Use these lines in combination with candlestick patterns (e.g., bullish engulfing, pin bars) for confirmation.
✅ 3. Using the Breakout Line for Key Entry & Exit Points
The breakout line represents a key dynamic level (midpoint of the previous timeframe’s open & close).
If price breaks above the breakout line, it suggests bullish momentum → Consider long trades.
If price breaks below the breakout line, it suggests bearish momentum → Consider short trades.
🔥 Best Strategy:
Use the breakout line in combination with support & resistance levels.
When price approaches the breakout line, watch for confirmation candles before entering a trade.
The breakout line can also act as a stop-loss or take-profit level.
🎯 How to Utilize CCT Effectively?
✅ For Intraday Traders
Use the consecutive close tracker on a 5M or 15M chart to catch short-term trends.
Watch for reversal lines near major intraday support/resistance for quick scalping opportunities.
Use the breakout line from the hourly chart to identify potential trend shifts.
✅ For Swing Traders
Apply the indicator on 1H, 4H, or daily charts to track medium-term trends.
Look for green/red lines near key Fibonacci retracement or pivot levels.
Use reversal lines to detect early trend reversals before bigger moves occur.
✅ For Breakout Traders
Focus on the breakout line on higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, Daily) to identify strong momentum shifts.
If price crosses the breakout line with strong volume, enter trades with trend confirmation.
Place stop-loss just below the breakout level for controlled risk management.
🏆 Final Thoughts
The Consecutive Close Tracker (CCT) is a powerful momentum and reversal indicator that helps traders:
✅ Identify strong trend continuations (green/red lines).
✅ Detect early reversal points (cyan/light red lines).
✅ Use a dynamic breakout line for better trade entries & exits.
