[TH] กลยุทธ์ SMC หลายกรอบเวลา (V5.2 - M15 Lead)English Explanation
This Pine Script code implements a multi-timeframe trading strategy based on Smart Money Concepts (SMC). It's designed to identify high-probability trading setups by aligning signals across three different timeframes.
The core logic is as follows:
High Timeframe (HTF) - M15: Determines the overall market direction or bias.
Medium Timeframe (MTF) - M5: Identifies potential Points of Interest (POI), such as Order Blocks or Fair Value Gaps, in alignment with the M15 bias.
Low Timeframe (LTF) - Current Chart: Looks for a specific entry trigger within the M5 POI to execute the trade.
Detailed Breakdown
## Part 1: Inputs & Settings
This section allows you to customize the indicator's parameters:
General Settings:
i_pivotLookback: Sets the lookback period for identifying pivot highs and lows on the LTF, which is crucial for finding the Change of Character (CHoCH).
M15 Bias Settings:
i_m15EmaFast / i_m15EmaSlow: These two EMA (Exponential Moving Average) values on the 15-minute chart determine the main trend. A bullish trend is confirmed when the fast EMA is above the slow EMA, and vice-versa for a bearish trend.
M5 Point of Interest (POI) Settings:
i_showM5Fvg / i_showM5Ob: Toggles the visibility of Fair Value Gaps (FVG) and Order Blocks (OB) on the 5-minute chart. These are the zones where the script will look for trading opportunities.
i_maxPois: Limits the number of POI zones drawn on the chart to keep it clean.
LTF Entry Settings:
i_entryMode:
Confirmation: The script waits for a Change of Character (CHoCH) on the LTF (your current chart) after the price enters an M5 POI. A CHoCH is a break of a recent pivot high (for buys) or pivot low (for sells), suggesting a potential reversal. This is the safer entry method.
Aggressive: The script triggers an entry as soon as the price touches the 50% level of the M5 POI, without waiting for a CHoCH. This is higher risk but can provide a better entry price.
i_showChoch: Toggles the visibility of the CHoCH confirmation lines.
Trade Management Settings:
i_tpRatio: Sets the Risk-to-Reward Ratio (RRR) for the Take Profit target. For example, a value of 2.0 means the Take Profit distance will be twice the Stop Loss distance.
i_slMode: (New in V5.2) Provides four different methods to calculate the Stop Loss:
POI Zone (Default): Places the SL at the outer edge of the M5 POI zone.
Last Swing: Places the SL at the most recent LTF swing high/low before the entry.
ATR: Uses the Average True Range (ATR) indicator to set a volatility-based SL.
Previous Candle: Places the SL at the high or low of the candle immediately preceding the entry. This is the tightest and riskiest option.
i_maxHistory: Sets the number of past trades to display on the chart.
## Part 2: Data Types & Variables
This section defines custom data structures (type) to organize information:
Poi: A structure to hold all information related to a single Point of Interest, including its price boundaries, direction (bullish/bearish), and whether it has been mitigated (touched by price).
Trade: A structure to store details for each trade, such as its entry price, SL, TP, result (Win/Loss/Active), and chart objects for drawing.
## Part 3: Core Logic & Calculations
This is the engine of the indicator:
Data Fetching: It uses request.security to pull EMA data from the M15 timeframe and candle data (high, low, open, close) from the M5 timeframe.
POI Identification: The script constantly scans the M5 data for FVG and OB patterns. When a valid pattern is found that aligns with the M15 bias (e.g., a bullish OB during an M15 uptrend), it's stored as a Poi and drawn on the chart.
Entry Trigger:
It checks if the price on the LTF enters a valid (unmitigated) POI zone.
Based on the selected i_entryMode, it either waits for a CHoCH or enters aggressively.
Once an entry condition is met, it calculates the SL based on the i_slMode, calculates the TP using the i_tpRatio, and creates a new Trade.
Trade Monitoring: For every active trade, the script checks on each new bar if the price has hit the SL or TP level. When it does, the trade's result is updated, and the visual boxes are finalized.
## Part 5: On-Screen Display
This part creates the Performance Dashboard table shown on the top-right of the chart. It provides a real-time summary of:
M15 Bias: Current market direction.
Total Trades: The total number of completed trades from the history.
Win Rate: The percentage of winning trades.
Total R-Multiple: The cumulative Risk-to-Reward multiple (sum of RRR from wins minus losses). A positive value indicates overall profitability.
🇹🇭 คำอธิบายและข้อแนะนำภาษาไทย
สคริปต์นี้เป็น Indicator สำหรับกลยุทธ์การเทรดแบบ Smart Money Concepts (SMC) ที่ใช้การวิเคราะห์จากหลายกรอบเวลา (Multi-Timeframe) เพื่อหาจุดเข้าเทรดที่มีความเป็นไปได้สูง
หลักการทำงานของ Indicator มีดังนี้:
Timeframe ใหญ่ (HTF) - M15: ใช้กำหนดทิศทางหลักของตลาด หรือ "Bias"
Timeframe กลาง (MTF) - M5: ใช้หาโซนสำคัญ หรือ "Point of Interest (POI)" เช่น Order Blocks หรือ Fair Value Gaps ที่สอดคล้องกับทิศทางจาก M15
Timeframe เล็ก (LTF) - กราฟปัจจุบัน: ใช้หาสัญญาณยืนยันเพื่อเข้าเทรดในโซน POI ที่กำหนดไว้
รายละเอียดของโค้ด
## ส่วนที่ 1: การตั้งค่า (Inputs & Settings)
ส่วนนี้ให้คุณปรับแต่งค่าต่างๆ ของ Indicator ได้:
การตั้งค่าทั่วไป:
i_pivotLookback: กำหนดระยะเวลาที่ใช้มองหาจุดกลับตัว (Pivot) ใน Timeframe เล็ก (LTF) เพื่อใช้ยืนยันสัญญาณ Change of Character (CHoCH)
การตั้งค่า M15 (ทิศทางหลัก):
i_m15EmaFast / i_m15EmaSlow: ใช้เส้น EMA 2 เส้นบน Timeframe 15 นาที เพื่อกำหนดเทรนด์หลัก หาก EMA เร็วอยู่เหนือ EMA ช้า จะเป็นเทรนด์ขาขึ้น และในทางกลับกัน
การตั้งค่า M5 (จุดสนใจ - POI):
i_showM5Fvg / i_showM5Ob: เปิด/ปิด การแสดงโซน Fair Value Gaps (FVG) และ Order Blocks (OB) บน Timeframe 5 นาที ซึ่งเป็นโซนที่สคริปต์จะใช้หาโอกาสเข้าเทรด
i_maxPois: จำกัดจำนวนโซน POI ที่จะแสดงผลบนหน้าจอ เพื่อไม่ให้กราฟดูรกเกินไป
การตั้งค่า LTF (การเข้าเทรด):
i_entryMode:
ยืนยัน (Confirmation): เป็นโหมดที่ปลอดภัยกว่า โดยสคริปต์จะรอให้เกิดสัญญาณ Change of Character (CHoCH) ใน Timeframe เล็กก่อน หลังจากที่ราคาเข้ามาในโซน POI แล้ว
เชิงรุก (Aggressive): เป็นโหมดที่เสี่ยงกว่า โดยสคริปต์จะเข้าเทรดทันทีที่ราคาแตะระดับ 50% ของโซน POI โดยไม่รอสัญญาณยืนยัน CHoCH
i_showChoch: เปิด/ปิด การแสดงเส้น CHoCH บนกราฟ
การตั้งค่าการจัดการเทรด:
i_tpRatio: กำหนด อัตราส่วนกำไรต่อความเสี่ยง (Risk-to-Reward Ratio) เพื่อตั้งเป้าหมายทำกำไร (Take Profit) เช่น 2.0 หมายถึงระยะทำกำไรจะเป็น 2 เท่าของระยะตัดขาดทุน
i_slMode: (ฟีเจอร์ใหม่ V5.2) มี 4 รูปแบบในการคำนวณ Stop Loss:
โซน POI (ค่าเริ่มต้น): วาง SL ไว้ที่ขอบนอกสุดของโซน POI
Swing ล่าสุด: วาง SL ไว้ที่จุด Swing High/Low ล่าสุดของ Timeframe เล็ก (LTF) ก่อนเข้าเทรด
ATR: ใช้ค่า ATR (Average True Range) เพื่อกำหนด SL ตามระดับความผันผวนของราคา
แท่งเทียนก่อนหน้า: วาง SL ไว้ที่ราคา High/Low ของแท่งเทียนก่อนหน้าที่จะเข้าเทรด เป็นวิธีที่ SL แคบและเสี่ยงที่สุด
i_maxHistory: กำหนดจำนวนประวัติการเทรดที่จะแสดงย้อนหลังบนกราฟ
## ส่วนที่ 2: ประเภทข้อมูลและตัวแปร
ส่วนนี้เป็นการสร้างโครงสร้างข้อมูล (type) เพื่อจัดเก็บข้อมูลให้เป็นระบบ:
Poi: เก็บข้อมูลของโซน POI แต่ละโซน เช่น กรอบราคาบน-ล่าง, ทิศทาง (ขึ้น/ลง) และสถานะว่าถูกใช้งานไปแล้วหรือยัง (Mitigated)
Trade: เก็บรายละเอียดของแต่ละการเทรด เช่น ราคาเข้า, SL, TP, ผลลัพธ์ (Win/Loss/Active) และอ็อบเจกต์สำหรับวาดกล่องบนกราฟ
## ส่วนที่ 3: ตรรกะหลักและการคำนวณ
เป็นหัวใจสำคัญของ Indicator:
ดึงข้อมูลข้าม Timeframe: ใช้ฟังก์ชัน request.security เพื่อดึงข้อมูล EMA จาก M15 และข้อมูลแท่งเทียนจาก M5 มาใช้งาน
ระบุ POI: สคริปต์จะค้นหา FVG และ OB บน M5 ตลอดเวลา หากเจ้ารูปแบบที่สอดคล้องกับทิศทางหลักจาก M15 (เช่น เจอ Bullish OB ในขณะที่ M15 เป็นขาขึ้น) ก็จะวาดโซนนั้นไว้บนกราฟ
เงื่อนไขการเข้าเทรด:
เมื่อราคาใน Timeframe เล็ก (LTF) วิ่งเข้ามาในโซน POI ที่ยังไม่เคยถูกใช้งาน
สคริปต์จะรอสัญญาณตาม i_entryMode ที่เลือกไว้ (รอ CHoCH หรือเข้าแบบ Aggressive)
เมื่อเงื่อนไขครบ จะคำนวณ SL และ TP จากนั้นจึงบันทึกการเทรดใหม่
ติดตามการเทรด: สำหรับเทรดที่ยัง "Active" อยู่ สคริปต์จะคอยตรวจสอบทุกแท่งเทียนว่าราคาไปถึง SL หรือ TP แล้วหรือยัง เมื่อถึงจุดใดจุดหนึ่ง จะบันทึกผลและสิ้นสุดการวาดกล่องบนกราฟ
## ส่วนที่ 5: การแสดงผลบนหน้าจอ
ส่วนนี้จะสร้างตาราง "Performance Dashboard" ที่มุมขวาบนของกราฟ เพื่อสรุปผลการทำงานแบบ Real-time:
M15 Bias: แสดงทิศทางของตลาดในปัจจุบัน
Total Trades: จำนวนเทรดทั้งหมดที่เกิดขึ้นในประวัติ
Win Rate: อัตราชนะ คิดเป็นเปอร์เซ็นต์
Total R-Multiple: ผลตอบแทนรวมจากความเสี่ยง (R) ทั้งหมด (ผลรวม RRR ของเทรดที่ชนะ ลบด้วยจำนวนเทรดที่แพ้) หากเป็นบวกแสดงว่ามีกำไรโดยรวม
📋 ข้อแนะนำในการใช้งาน
Timeframe ที่เหมาะสม: Indicator นี้ถูกออกแบบมาให้ใช้กับ Timeframe เล็ก (LTF) เช่น M1, M3 หรือ M5 เนื่องจากมันดึงข้อมูลจาก M15 และ M5 มาเป็นหลักการอยู่แล้ว
สไตล์การเทรด:
Confirmation: เหมาะสำหรับผู้ที่ต้องการความปลอดภัยสูง รอการยืนยันก่อนเข้าเทรด อาจจะตกรถบ้าง แต่ลดความเสี่ยงจากการเข้าเทรดเร็วเกินไป
Aggressive: เหมาะสำหรับผู้ที่ยอมรับความเสี่ยงได้สูงขึ้น เพื่อให้ได้ราคาเข้าที่ดีที่สุด
การเลือก Stop Loss:
"Swing ล่าสุด" และ "โซน POI" เป็นวิธีมาตรฐานตามหลัก SMC
"ATR" เหมาะกับตลาดที่มีความผันผวนสูง เพราะ SL จะปรับตามสภาพตลาด
"แท่งเทียนก่อนหน้า" เป็นวิธีที่เสี่ยงที่สุด เหมาะกับการเทรดเร็วและต้องการ RRR สูงๆ แต่ก็มีโอกาสโดน SL ง่ายขึ้น
การบริหารความเสี่ยง: Indicator นี้เป็นเพียง เครื่องมือช่วยวิเคราะห์ ไม่ใช่สัญญาณซื้อขายอัตโนมัติ 100% ผู้ใช้ควรมีความเข้าใจในหลักการของ SMC และทำการบริหารความเสี่ยง (Risk Management) อย่างเคร่งครัดเสมอ
การทดสอบย้อนหลัง (Backtesting): ควรทำการทดสอบ Indicator กับสินทรัพย์และตั้งค่าต่างๆ เพื่อให้เข้าใจลักษณะการทำงานและประสิทธิภาพของมันก่อนนำไปใช้เทรดจริง
Initial balance - weeklyWeekly Initial Balance (IB) — Indicator Description
The Weekly Initial Balance (IB) is the price range (High–Low) established during the week’s first trading session (most commonly Monday). You can measure it over the entire day or just the first X hours (e.g. 60 or 120 minutes). Once that session ends, the IB High and IB Low define the key levels where the initial weekly range formed.
Why Measure the Weekly IB?
Week-Opening Sentiment:
Monday’s range often sets the tone for the rest of the week. Trading above the IB High signals bullish control; trading below the IB Low signals bearish control.
Key Liquidity Zones:
Large institutions tend to place orders around these extremes, so you’ll frequently see tests, breakouts, or rejections at these levels.
Support & Resistance:
The IB High and IB Low become natural barriers. Price will often return to them, bounce off them, or break through them—ideal spots for entries and exits.
Volatility Forecast:
The width of the IB (High minus Low) indicates whether to expect a volatile week (wide IB) or a quieter one (narrow IB).
Significance of IB Levels
Breakout:
A clear break above the IB High (for longs) or below the IB Low (for shorts) can ignite a strong trending move.
Fade:
A rejection off the IB High/Low during low momentum (e.g. low volume or pin-bar formations) offers a high-probability reversal trade.
Mid-Point:
The 50% level of the IB range often “magnetizes” price back to it, providing entry points for continuation or reversal strategies.
Three Core Monday IB Strategies
A. Breakout (Open-Range Breakout)
Entry: Wait for 1–2 candles (e.g. 5-minute) to close above IB High (long) or below IB Low (short).
Stop-Loss: A few pips below IB High (long) or above IB Low (short).
Profit-Target: 2–3× your risk (Reward:Risk ≥ 2:1).
Best When: You spot a clear impulse—such as a strong pre-open volume spike or news-driven move.
B. Fade (Reversal at Extremes)
Entry: When price tests IB High but shows weakening momentum (shrinking volume, upper-wick candles), enter short; vice versa for IB Low and longs.
Stop-Loss: Just beyond the IB extreme you’re fading.
Profit-Target: Back toward the IB mid-point (50% level) or all the way to the opposite IB extreme.
Best When: Monday’s action is range-bound and lacks a clear directional trend.
C. Mid-Point Trading
Entry: When price returns to the 50% level of the IB range.
In an up-trend: buy if it bounces off mid-point back toward IB High.
In a down-trend: sell if it reverses off mid-point back toward IB Low.
Stop-Loss: Just below the nearest swing-low (for longs) or above the nearest swing-high (for shorts).
Profit-Target: To the corresponding IB extreme (High or Low).
Best When: You see a strong initial move away from the IB, followed by a pullback to the mid-point.
Usage Steps
Configure your session: Measure IB over your chosen Monday timeframe (whole day or first X hours).
Choose your strategy: Align Breakout, Fade, or Mid-Point entries with the current market context (trend vs. range).
Manage risk: Keep risk per trade ≤ 1% of account and maintain at least a 2:1 Reward:Risk ratio.
Backtest & forward-test: Verify performance over multiple Mondays and in a paper-trading environment before going live.
Ticker Pulse Meter BasicPairs nicely with the Contrarian 100 MA located here:
and the Enhanced Stock Ticker with 50MA vs 200MA located here:
Description
The Ticker Pulse Meter Basic is a dynamic Pine Script v6 indicator designed to provide traders with a visual representation of a stock’s price position relative to its short-term and long-term ranges, enabling clear entry and exit signals for long-only trading strategies. By calculating three normalized metrics—Percent Above Long & Above Short, Percent Above Long & Below Short, and Percent Below Long & Below Short—this indicator offers a unique "pulse" of market sentiment, plotted as stacked area charts in a separate pane. With customizable lookback periods, thresholds, and signal plotting options, it empowers traders to identify optimal entry points and profit-taking levels. The indicator leverages Pine Script’s force_overlay feature to plot signals on either the main price chart or the indicator pane, making it versatile for various trading styles.
Key Features
Pulse Meter Metrics:
Computes three percentages based on short-term (default: 50 bars) and long-term (default: 200 bars) lookback periods:
Percent Above Long & Above Short: Measures price strength when above both short and long ranges (green area).
Percent Above Long & Below Short: Indicates mixed momentum (orange area).
Percent Below Long & Below Short: Signals weakness when below both ranges (red area).
Flexible Signal Plotting:
Toggle between plotting entry (blue dots) and exit (white dots) signals on the main price chart (location.abovebar/belowbar) or in the indicator pane (location.top/bottom) using the Plot Signals on Main Chart option.
Entry/Exit Logic:
Long Entry: Triggered when Percent Above Long & Above Short crosses above the high threshold (default: 20%) and Percent Below Long & Below Short is below the low threshold (default: 40%).
Long Exit: Triggered when Percent Above Long & Above Short crosses above the profit-taking level (default: 95%).
Visual Enhancements:
Plots stacked area charts with semi-transparent colors (green, orange, red) for intuitive trend analysis.
Displays threshold lines for entry (high/low) and profit-taking levels.
Includes a ticker and timeframe table in the top-right corner for quick reference.
Alert Conditions: Supports alerts for long entry and exit signals, integrable with TradingView’s alert system for automated trading.
Technical Innovation: Combines normalized price metrics with Pine Script v6’s force_overlay for seamless signal integration on the price chart or indicator pane.
Technical Details
Calculation Logic:
Uses confirmed bars (barstate.isconfirmed) to calculate metrics, ensuring reliability.
Short-term percentage: (close - lowest(low, lookback_short)) / (highest(high, lookback_short) - lowest(low, lookback_short)).
Long-term percentage: (close - lowest(low, lookback_long)) / (highest(high, lookback_long) - lowest(low, lookback_long)).
Derived metrics:
pct_above_long_above_short = (pct_above_long * pct_above_short) * 100.
pct_above_long_below_short = (pct_above_long * (1 - pct_above_short)) * 100.
pct_below_long_below_short = ((1 - pct_above_long) * (1 - pct_above_short)) * 100.
Signal Plotting:
Entry signals (long_entry) use ta.crossover to detect when pct_above_long_above_short crosses above entryThresholdhigh and pct_below_long_below_short is below entryThresholdlow.
Exit signals (long_exit) use ta.crossover for pct_above_long_above_short crossing above profitTake.
Signals are plotted as tiny circles with force_overlay=true for main chart or standard plotting for the indicator pane.

Intraday Macro & Flow Indicator# IntraMacroFlow Indicator
## Introduction
IntraMacroFlow is a volume and delta-based indicator that identifies significant price movements within trading sessions. It generates signals when volume spikes coincide with quality price movement, filtered by RSI to avoid overbought/oversold conditions.
> **Note:** This indicator provides multiple signals and should be combined with additional analysis methods such as support/resistance, trend direction, and price action patterns.
## Inputs
### Volume Settings
* **Volume Lookback Period** (14) - Number of bars for volume moving average calculation
* **Volume Threshold Multiplier** (1.5) - Required volume increase over average to generate signals
* **Delta Threshold** (0.3) - Required close-to-open movement relative to bar range (higher = stronger movement)
### Session Configuration
* **Use Dynamic Session Detection** (true) - Automatically determine session times
* **Highlight Market Open Period** (true) - Highlight first third of trading session
* **Highlight Mid-Session Period** (true) - Highlight middle portion of trading session
* **Detect Signals Throughout Whole Session** (true) - Find signals in entire session
* **Session Time** ("0930-1600") - Trading hours in HHMM-HHMM format
* **Session Type** ("Regular") - Select Regular, Extended, or Custom session
### Manual Session Settings
Used when dynamic detection is disabled:
* **Manual Session Open Hour** (9)
* **Manual Session Open Minute** (30)
* **Manual Session Open Duration** (60)
* **Manual Mid-Session Start Hour** (12)
* **Manual Mid-Session End Hour** (14)
## How It Works
The indicator analyzes each bar using three primary conditions:
1. **Volume Condition**: Current volume > Average volume × Threshold
2. **Delta Condition**: |Close-Open|/Range > Delta threshold
3. **Time Condition**: Bar falls within configured session times
When all conditions are met:
* Bullish signals appear when close > open and RSI < 70
* Bearish signals appear when close < open and RSI > 30
## Display Elements
### Shapes and Colors
* Green triangles below bars - Bullish signals
* Red triangles above bars - Bearish signals
* Blue background - Market open period
* Purple background - Mid-session period
* Bar coloring - Green (bullish), Red (bearish), or unchanged
### Information Panel
A dynamic label shows:
* Current volume relative to average (Vol)
* Delta value for current bar (Delta)
* RSI value (RSI)
* Session status (Active/Closed)
## Calculation Method
```
// Volume Condition
volumeMA = ta.sma(volume, lookbackPeriod)
volumeCondition = volume > volumeMA * volumeThreshold
// Delta Calculation (price movement quality)
priceRange = high - low
delta = math.abs(close - open) / priceRange
deltaCondition = delta > deltaThreshold
// Direction and RSI Filter
bullishBias = close > open and entrySignal and not (rsi > 70)
bearishBias = close < open and entrySignal and not (rsi < 30)
```
## Usage Recommendations
### Suitable Markets
* Equities during regular trading hours
* Futures markets
* Forex during active sessions
* Cryptocurrencies with defined volume patterns
### Recommended Timeframes
* 1-minute to 1-hour (optimal: 5 or 15-minute)
### Parameter Adjustments
* For fewer but stronger signals: increase Volume Threshold (2.0+) and Delta Threshold (0.4-0.6)
* For more signals: decrease Volume Threshold (1.2-1.5) and Delta Threshold (0.2-0.3)
### Usage Tips
* Combine with trend analysis for higher-probability entries
* Focus on signals occurring at session boundaries and mid-session
* Use opposite signals as potential exit points
* Configure alerts to receive notifications when signals occur
## Additional Notes
* RSI parameters are fixed at 14 periods with 70/30 thresholds
* The indicator handles overnight sessions correctly
* Fully compatible with TradingView alerts
* Customizable visual elements

Bullish Engulfing – A strong bullish reversal pattern.
Bearish Engulfing – Indicates a potential downtrend.
Hammer – Suggests a market bottom or reversal.
Shooting Star – A bearish reversal signal at the top of an uptrend.
Doji – Signals market indecision and possible trend change.
Key Functions:
Automated Pattern Visible
Identifies candlestick patterns dynamically and plots them on the chart.
Visual Labels for Patterns
Labels to indicate specific candlestick formations.
Labels appear only when a valid pattern is detected, avoiding unnecessary clutter.
Buy/Sell Signal
Plots buy signals at bullish patterns and sell signals at bearish patterns.
Helps traders recognize trend reversals and entry/exit points.
Bullish Engulfing Pattern (Green Label)
What it means: A bullish engulfing pattern typically signals a potential reversal from a downtrend to an uptrend. The current candle fully engulfs the previous candle, signaling strong buying interest.
Identifying Candlestick Patterns on the Chart
How to use it:
Entry: Look for a green label (bullish engulfing) at the bottom of the chart. When it appears, consider entering a long position (buy).
Confirmation: To increase reliability, wait for confirmation by observing if price moves above the high of the bullish engulfing candle.
Exit: Exit when the trend shows signs of reversing or take profit at predefined levels (e.g., resistance or a risk-to-reward ratio).
Bearish Engulfing Pattern (Red Label)
What it means: A bearish engulfing pattern is a signal of a potential reversal from an uptrend to a downtrend. The current candle fully engulfs the previous candle, signaling strong selling pressure.
How to use it:
Entry: Look for a red label (bearish engulfing) at the top of the chart. When it appears, consider entering a short position (sell).
Confirmation: Wait for the price to move below the low of the bearish engulfing candle to confirm the bearish trend.
Exit: Close the trade when the price reaches support levels or the trend shows signs of reversing.
Doji Pattern (Blue Circle)
What it means: A Doji candle signals market indecision. It represents a balance between buyers and sellers, often marking a potential reversal or consolidation point.
How to use it:
Entry: If the Doji appears after a strong trend (bullish or bearish), wait for the next candle to break above or below the Doji's high or low. This can signal a continuation or reversal.
Confirmation: You can look for additional indicators like moving averages, RSI, or MACD for confirmation before taking any action.
Exit: Exit when the price shows clear momentum in your entry direction.
Hammer Pattern (Orange Triangle)
What it means: The hammer pattern is a bullish reversal pattern that appears after a downtrend. It suggests that sellers pushed the price down during the session, but buyers managed to push the price back up.
How to use it:
Entry: When a hammer appears, consider entering a long position (buy). The price should move above the hammer's high for confirmation.
Confirmation: Look for strong volume and a follow-up bullish candle to confirm the reversal.
Exit: Set a target based on the next resistance level, or use a trailing stop to lock in profits.
Using Candlestick Patterns with Other Indicators
To increase your chances of success, combine candlestick patterns with other technical indicators.
Here are some ideas:
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Use RSI to check whether the market is overbought or oversold. A bullish engulfing in an oversold market could indicate a stronger buy signal, and a bearish engulfing in an overbought market could indicate a stronger sell signal.
Moving Averages (e.g., 50 EMA, 200 EMA): Confirm trend direction. If the candlestick pattern aligns with the direction of the moving averages, it can give a stronger signal.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence): Use MACD to confirm momentum and potential trend changes. If a candlestick pattern aligns with a MACD crossover, it strengthens the signal.
Volume: Look for higher-than-average volume when a pattern appears. This can give you additional confirmation that the market is reacting strongly.
Practice and Refine
It's important to practice using the candlestick patterns in a demo account or backtest them to see how they perform under different market conditions. Over time, you can adjust the settings and patterns to fit your trading style and preferences.
Multi-indicator Signal Builder [Skyrexio]Overview
Multi-Indicator Signal Builder is a versatile, all-in-one script designed to streamline your trading workflow by combining multiple popular technical indicators under a single roof. It features a single-entry, single-exit logic, intrabar stop-loss/take-profit handling, an optional time filter, a visually accessible condition table, and a built-in statistics label. Traders can choose any combination of 12+ indicators (RSI, Ultimate Oscillator, Bollinger %B, Moving Averages, ADX, Stochastic, MACD, PSAR, MFI, CCI, Heikin Ashi, and a “TV Screener” placeholder) to form entry or exit conditions. This script aims to simplify strategy creation and analysis, making it a powerful toolkit for technical traders.
Indicators Overview
1. RSI (Relative Strength Index)
Measures recent price changes to evaluate overbought or oversold conditions on a 0–100 scale.
2. Ultimate Oscillator (UO)
Uses weighted averages of three different timeframes, aiming to confirm price momentum while avoiding false divergences.
3. Bollinger %B
Expresses price relative to Bollinger Bands, indicating whether price is near the upper band (overbought) or lower band (oversold).
4. Moving Average (MA)
Smooths price data over a specified period. The script supports both SMA and EMA to help identify trend direction and potential crossovers.
5. ADX (Average Directional Index)
Gauges the strength of a trend (0–100). Higher ADX signals stronger momentum, while lower ADX indicates a weaker trend.
6. Stochastic
Compares a closing price to a price range over a given period to identify momentum shifts and potential reversals.
7. MACD (Moving Average Convergence/Divergence)
Tracks the difference between two EMAs plus a signal line, commonly used to spot momentum flips through crossovers.
8. PSAR (Parabolic SAR)
Plots a trailing stop-and-reverse dot that moves with the trend. Often used to signal potential reversals when price crosses PSAR.
9. MFI (Money Flow Index)
Similar to RSI but incorporates volume data. A reading above 80 can suggest overbought conditions, while below 20 may indicate oversold.
10. CCI (Commodity Channel Index)
Identifies cyclical trends or overbought/oversold levels by comparing current price to an average price over a set timeframe.
11. Heikin Ashi
A type of candlestick charting that filters out market noise. The script uses a streak-based approach (multiple consecutive bullish or bearish bars) to gauge mini-trends.
12. TV Screener
A placeholder condition designed to integrate external buy/sell logic (like a TradingView “Buy” or “Sell” rating). Users can override or reference external signals if desired.
Unique Features
1. Multi-Indicator Entry and Exit
You can selectively enable any subset of 12+ classic indicators, each with customizable parameters and conditions. A position opens only if all enabled entry conditions are met, and it closes only when all enabled exit conditions are satisfied, helping reduce false triggers.
2. Single-Entry / Single-Exit with Intrabar SL/TP
The script supports a single position at a time. Once a position is open, it monitors intrabar to see if the price hits your stop-loss or take-profit levels before the bar closes, making results more realistic for fast-moving markets.
3. Time Window Filter
Users may specify a start/end date range during which trades are allowed, making it convenient to focus on specific market cycles for backtesting or live trading.
4. Condition Table and Statistics
A table at the bottom of the chart lists all active entry/exit indicators. Upon each closed trade, an integrated statistics label displays net profit, total trades, win/loss count, average and median PnL, etc.
5. Seamless Alerts and Automation
Configure alerts in TradingView using “Any alert() function call.”
The script sends JSON alert messages you can route to your own webhook.
The indicator can be integrated with Skyrexio alert bots to automate execution on major cryptocurrency exchanges
6. Optional MA/PSAR Plots
For added visual clarity, optionally plot the chosen moving averages or PSAR on the chart to confirm signals without stacking multiple indicators.
Methodology
1. Multi-Indicator Entry Logic
When multiple entry indicators are enabled (e.g., RSI + Stochastic + MACD), the script requires all signals to align before generating an entry. Each indicator can be set for crossovers, crossunders, thresholds (above/below), etc. This “AND” logic aims to filter out low-confidence triggers.
2. Single-Entry Intrabar SL/TP
One Position At a Time: Once an entry signal triggers, a trade opens at the bar’s close.
Intrabar Checks: Stop-loss and take-profit levels (if enabled) are monitored on every tick. If either is reached, the position closes immediately, without waiting for the bar to end.
3. Exit Logic
All Conditions Must Agree: If the trade is still open (SL/TP not triggered), then all enabled exit indicators must confirm a closure before the script exits on the bar’s close.
4. Time Filter
Optional Trading Window: You can activate a date/time range to constrain entries and exits strictly to that interval.
Justification of Methodology
Indicator Confluence: Combining multiple tools (RSI, MACD, etc.) can reduce noise and false signals.
Intrabar SL/TP: Capturing real-time spikes or dips provides a more precise reflection of typical live trading scenarios.
Single-Entry Model: Straightforward for both manual and automated tracking (especially important in bridging to bots).
Custom Date Range: Helps refine backtesting for specific market conditions or to avoid known irregular data periods.

ORB Algo | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new ORB Algo indicator! ORB stands for "Opening Range Breakout" which is a common trading strategy. The indicator can analyze the market trend in the current session and give "Buy / Sell", "Take Profit" and "Stop Loss" signals. For more information about the analyzing process of the indicator, you can read "How Does It Work ?" section of the description.
Features of the new ORB Algo indicator :
Buy & Sell Signals
Up To 3 Take Profit Signals
Stop-Loss Signals
Alerts for Buy / Sell, Take-Profit and Stop-Loss
Customizable Algoritm
Session Dashboard
Backtesting Dashboard
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
This indicator works best in 1-minute timeframe. The idea is that the trend of the current session can be forecasted by analyzing the market for a while after the session starts. However, each market has it's own dynamics and the algorithm will need fine-tuning to get the best performance possible. So, we've implemented a "Backtesting Dashboard" that shows the past performance of the algorithm in the current ticker with your current settings. Always keep in mind that past performance does not guarantee future results.
Here are the steps of the algorithm explained briefly :
1. The algorithm follows and analyzes the first 30 minutes (can be adjusted) of the session.
2. Then, algorithm checks for breakouts of the opening range's high or low.
3. If a breakout happens in a bullish or a bearish direction, the algorithm will now check for retests of the breakout. Depending on the sensitivity setting, there must be 0 / 1 / 2 / 3 failed retests for the breakout to be considered as reliable.
4. If the breakout is reliable, the algorithm will give an entry signal.
5. After the position entry, algorithm will now wait for Take-Profit or Stop-Loss zones and signal if any of them occur.
If you wonder how does the indicator find Take-Profit & Stop-Loss zones, you can check the "Settings" section of the description.
🚩UNIQUENESS
While there are indicators that show the opening range of the session, they come short with features like indicating breakouts, entries, and Take-Profit & Stop-Loss zones. We are also aware of that different stock markets have different dynamics, and tuning the algorithm for different markets is really important for better results, so we decided to make the algorithm fully customizable. Besides all that, our indicator contains a detailed backtesting dashboard, so you can see past performance of the algorithm in the current ticker. While past performance does not yield any guarantee for future results, we believe that a backtesting dashboard is necessary for tuning the algorithm. Another strength of this indicator is that there are multiple options for detection of Take-Profit and Stop-Loss zones, which the trader can select one of their liking.
⚙️SETTINGS
Keep in mind that best chart timeframe for this indicator to work is the 1-minute timeframe.
TP = Take-Profit
SL = Stop-Loss
EMA = Exponential Moving Average
OR = Opening Range
ATR = Average True Range
1. Algorithm
ORB Timeframe -> This setting determines the timeframe that the algorithm will analyze the market after a new session begins before giving any signals. It's important to experiment with this setting and find the best option that suits the current ticker for the best performance. More volatile stocks will often require this setting to be larger, while more stabilized stocks may have this setting shorter.
Sensitivity -> This setting determines how much failed retests are needed to take a position entry. Higher senstivity means that less retests are needed to consider the breakout as reliable. If you think that the current ticker makes strong movements in a bullish & bearish direction after a breakout, you should set this setting higher. If you think the opposite, meaning that the ticker does not decide the trend right after a breakout, this setting show be lower.
(High = 0 Retests, Medium = 1 Retest, Low = 2 Retests, Lowest = 3 Retests)
Breakout Condition -> The condition for the algorithm to detect breakouts.
Close = Bar needs to close higher than the OR High Line in a bullish breakout, or lower than the OR Low Line in a bearish breakout. EMA = The EMA of the bar must be higher / lower than OR Lines instead of the close price.
TP Method -> The method for the algorithm to use when determining TP zones.
Dynamic = This TP method essentially tries to find the bar that price starts declining the current trend and going to the other direction, and puts a TP zone there. To achieve this, it uses an EMA line, and when the close price of a bar crosses the EMA line, It's a TP spot.
ATR = In this TP method, instead of a dynamic approach the TP zones are pre-determined using the ATR of the entry bar. This option is generally for traders who just want to know their TP spots beforehand while trading. Selecting this option will also show TP zones at the ORB Dashboard.
"Dynamic" option generally performs better, while the "ATR" method is safer to use.
EMA Length -> This setting determines the length of the EMA line used in "Dynamic TP method" and "EMA Breakout Condition". This is completely up to the trader's choice, though the default option should generally perform well. You might want to experiment with this setting and find the optimal length for the current ticker.
Stop-Loss -> Algorithm will place the Stop-Loss zone using setting.
Safer = The SL zone will be placed closer to the OR High for a bullish entry, and closer to the OR Low for a bearish entry.
Balanced = The SL zone will be placed in the center of OR High & OR Low
Risky = The SL zone will be placed closer to the OR Low for a bullish entry, and closer to the OR High for a bearish entry.
Adaptive SL -> This option only takes effect if the first TP zone is hit.
Enabled = After the 1st TP zone is hit, the SL zone will be moved to the entry price, essentially making the position risk-free.
Disabled = The SL zone will never change.
2. ORB Dashboard
ORB Dashboard shows the information about the current session.
3. ORB Backtesting
ORB Backtesting Dashboard allows you to see past performance of the algorithm in the current ticker with current settings.
Total amount of days that can be backtested depends on your TV subscription.
Backtesting Exit Ratios -> You can select how much of percent your entry will be closed at any TP zone while backtesting. For example, %90, %5, %5 means that %90 of the position will be closed at the first TP zone, %5 of it will be closed at the 2nd TP zone, and %5 of it will be closed at the last TP zone.
Rainbow Oscillator The Rainbow Oscillator is a technical indicator that shows prices in overbought or oversold areas. That allows you to catch the price reversal point.

FEATURES
---------------
.:: Dynamic levels ::.
The indicator levels are divided into several zones, which have a fibonacci ratio. Zones determine the overbought/oversold level. Blue and green level zones are better for buying, red and orange for selling. Dynamic levels are used as replacements for classic levels such as -100 and 100 for the CCI indicator or 30 and 70 for the RSI indicator. Dynamic levels work much better than static levels, as they are more adaptive to the current market situation.
.:: Composite oscillator (3 in 1) ::.
The main signal line of the indicator includes all three oscillators RSI, CCI, Stoch in different ratios. In the settings, you can change the proportions or completely remove one of the oscillators by setting its weight to 0
.:: CCI + RSI + Stoch ratio setting ::.
Each of the oscillators has its own weight in the calculation formula: w2 * cci ( + w1 * ( rsi - 50) + (1 - w2 - w1) * ( stoch - 50), this allows you to create the resulting oscillator from all indicators, depending on the weight of each of them. Each weight value must be between 0 and 1 so that the sum of all weights does not exceed 1.
.:: Smoothing levels and lines of the oscillator ::.
Smoothing the oscillator readings allows you to filter out the noise and get more accurate data. Level offset allows you to customize the support for inputs.
.:: Market Flat ::.
Dynamic creation of levels allows you to find in the price reversal zone, even when the price is in a flat
.:: Sources ::.
You can change the data source for the indicator to the number of longs and shorts for the selected asset. For example, BTCUSDLONGS / BTCUSDSHORTS is perfect for Bitcoin, then the oscillator will work on this data and will not use the quote price.
.:: Trend Detection ::.
The main line of the oscillator has 2 colors - green and red. Red means downtrend, green means uptrend. Trend reversal points are most often found in overbought and oversold zones.
.:: Alerts ::.
Alerts inside for next events: Buy (blue point) Sell (red point) and TrendReversal (change line color)
----------------
TRADING
—-------------
There are several possible entry points for the indicator, let's consider them all.
1) Trend reversal.
Long entry: The indicator line is in the green zone below 0 (oversold), while the line changes color from red (downward) to green (upward)
Short entry: The indicator line is in the red zone above the 0 (overbought) mark, while the line changes color from green to red.
2) Red and blue dots.
Long entry: Blue dot
Short Entry: Red Dot
I prefer to use the first trading method.
----------------
SETTINGS
----------------
.:: Trend Filter (checkbox) ::.
Use trend confirmation for red/blue dots. When enabled, the blue dot requires an uptrend, red dot requires downtrend confirmation before appearing.
.:: Use long/shorts (checkbox) ::.
Change formula to use longs and shorts positions as data source (instead of quote price)
.:: RSI weight / CCI weight / Stoch weight ::.
Weight control coefficients for RSI and CCI indicators, respectively. When you set RSI Weight = 0, equalize the combo of CCI and Stoch , when RSI Weight is zero and CCI Weight is equal to the oscillator value will be plotted
only from Stoch . Intermediate values have a high degree of measurement of each of the three oscillators in percentage terms from 0 to 100. The calculation uses the formula: w2 * cci ( + w1 * ( rsi - 50) + (1 - w2 - w1) * ( stoch - 50),
where w1 is RSI Weight and w2 is CCI Weight, Stoch weight is calculated on the fly as (1 - w2 - w1), so the sum of w1 + w2 should not exceed 1, in this case Stoch will work as opposed to CCI and RSI .
.:: Oscillograph fast and slow periods ::.
The fast period is the period for the moving average used to smooth CCI, RSI and Stoch. The slow period is the same. The fast period must always be less than the slow period.
.:: Oscillograph samples period::.
The period of smoothing the total values of indicators - creates a fast and slow main lines of the oscillator.

Altered True Strength Indicator (TSI) Reupload-
Altered TSI provides a slightly more volatile signal that demonstrates extremities in price action with greater success than standard TSI. In addition, I added bull/bear cross indicators (green/red) to make it easier to notice the crosses to save time when the market is moving fast (I couldn't find a regular TSI script with this addition). Finally, the signal also has overextension parameters (red and green lines)
I think this is best used on Intraday time frames as the signals respond to volatility very well and using Heikin Ashi candles, trend is more visual. In this particular example, I am showing SPY on the 3m time chart (my favorite short time frame) and the signal alone provided many opportunities for trades when using simple divergences and countering overextension direction when short term (blue) signal crosses either
In the first example (purple lines), SPY ramps but it was a dull signal given the signal strength flatlining- we would be looking for a short entry. When the signal fires, it provides a clean $1.50 move down in spy.
In the second example (orange), the blue signal provides a nice V shape (rebound signal) in which we are looking for a long entry. 390.50 is a strong SPY support in confluence with 2nd std dev VWAP extension, but disregarding that bull signal fires resulting in a 2 dollar move upwards. Exit is provided when blue line crosses green overextension.
In the third example (white), we are searching for a short entry at 392.5 resistance in confluence with divergently higher highs. Bear cross signal when fired and a significant cross is visible provides a $2.50 move to the downside with a potential exit provided when blue line crosses red overextension line in confluence with previous LOD area.
In the fourth example (green), we watch as the blue line provides a V pattern, we are searching for a long entry. If you didn't take a riskier long at 2nd std dev VWAP overextension with V recovery on blue line at red overextension for a ride to vwap, then you are looking for a secondary entry long as you wouldn't take the trade at resistance (vwap). Bullishly divergent lows provide this entry and the signal does not bear cross at all (but looking for significant crosses is more important even if the signal were to make a minor bear cross). Bullishly divergent double bottom provides a long entry to end of day with a nice clean signal for a $5.00 move until eod or when signal crosses overextension range.
Ideally, close to the money options or SPY/SPXS/SPXL are best used in the intraday time frame.
Again, this is not a standalone indicator but it's best used in conjunction with other indicators/trading strategies

Chaikin Oscillator Enhanced📊 What Is the Chaikin Oscillator?
The Chaikin Oscillator is a momentum indicator that helps traders understand the strength of buying and selling pressure in the market, based on volume and price movement.
It is calculated as the difference between two moving averages (short-term and long-term) of the Accumulation/Distribution Line (A/D Line). This line combines price and volume to show whether money is flowing into or out of an asset.
________________________________________
🧠 Simple Concept
• When big traders are buying, they usually do so with volume support—the Chaikin Oscillator picks this up.
• When volume is rising but price is falling, or vice versa, it shows hidden strength or weakness.
So, this indicator helps you see what the smart money is doing, even if the price isn’t moving much.
________________________________________
🛠️ How It Works
• Oscillator Value Above Zero → More buying pressure (bullish).
• Oscillator Value Below Zero → More selling pressure (bearish).
• Crossing above zero → A potential buy signal.
• Crossing below zero → A potential sell signal.
The histogram (vertical bars) in the indicator changes color:
• Green bars = Positive momentum.
• Red bars = Negative momentum.
________________________________________
🎯 How Traders Use It for Entry and Exit
✅ For Entries:
• Buy Entry: When the oscillator crosses above the zero line and the bars turn green, it means buyers are stepping in with volume.
• For better confirmation, combine it with price breaking above a resistance level.
❌ For Exits or Shorts:
• Sell Exit or Short Entry: When the oscillator crosses below the zero line and bars turn red, it suggests selling pressure is growing.
• If the price is also below support, it’s a stronger signal.
________________________________________
🔍 Example Use Case:
1. You’re watching a stock or crypto that's been going sideways.
2. Suddenly, the Chaikin Oscillator crosses above zero, and green bars appear.
3. That’s your early clue that big buyers might be entering.
4. If price confirms this with a breakout, you can enter a long position.
________________________________________
🌐 Where Is It Useful?
The Chaikin Oscillator is great for:
• Stocks (especially volume-heavy large caps)
• ETFs
• Cryptocurrency (on exchanges that provide volume data)
• Forex – less reliable unless volume is proxy-based
⚠️ Important: It won’t work well on instruments where volume data is missing or unreliable (like some CFDs or synthetic assets).
________________________________________
🧭 Pro Tips for Using It:
• Combine it with support/resistance, moving averages, or candlestick patterns.
• Avoid trading only based on this indicator—use it as confirmation.
• Use the alerts (added in the script) so you don’t miss key movements.

Contrarian RSIContrarian RSI Indicator
Pairs nicely with Contrarian 100 MA (optional hide/unhide buy/sell signals)
Description
The Contrarian RSI is a momentum-based technical indicator designed to identify potential reversal points in price action by combining a unique RSI calculation with a predictive range model inspired by the "Contrarian 5 Levels" logic. Unlike traditional RSI, which measures price momentum based solely on price changes, this indicator integrates a smoothed, weighted momentum calculation and predictive price ranges to generate contrarian signals. It is particularly suited for traders looking to capture reversals in trending or range-bound markets.
This indicator is versatile and can be used across various timeframes, though it performs best on higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, or Daily) due to reduced noise and more reliable signals. Lower timeframes may require additional testing and careful parameter tuning to optimize performance.
How It Works
The Contrarian RSI combines two primary components:
Predictive Ranges (5 Levels Logic): This calculates a smoothed price average that adapts to market volatility using an ATR-based mechanism. It helps identify significant price levels that act as potential support or resistance zones.
Contrarian RSI Calculation: A modified RSI calculation that uses weighted momentum from the predictive ranges to measure buying and selling pressure. The result is smoothed and paired with a user-defined moving average to generate clear signals.
The indicator generates buy (long) and sell (exit) signals based on crossovers and crossunders of user-defined overbought and oversold levels, making it ideal for contrarian trading strategies.
Calculation Overview
Predictive Ranges (5 Levels Logic):
Uses a custom function (pred_ranges) to calculate a dynamic price average (avg) based on the ATR (Average True Range) multiplied by a user-defined factor (mult).
The average adjusts only when the price moves beyond the ATR threshold, ensuring responsiveness to significant price changes while filtering out noise.
This calculation is performed on a user-specified timeframe (tf5Levels) for multi-timeframe analysis.
Contrarian RSI:
Compares consecutive predictive range values to calculate gains (g) and losses (l) over a user-defined period (crsiLength).
Applies a Gaussian weighting function (weight = math.exp(-math.pow(i / crsiLength, 2))) to prioritize recent price movements.
Computes a "wave ratio" (net_momentum / total_energy) to normalize momentum, which is then scaled to a 0–100 range (qrsi = 50 + 50 * wave_ratio).
Smooths the result with a 2-period EMA (qrsi_smoothed) for stability.
Moving Average:
Applies a user-selected moving average (SMA, EMA, WMA, SMMA, or VWMA) with a customizable length (maLength) to the smoothed RSI (qrsi_smoothed) to generate the final indicator value (qrsi_ma).
Signal Generation:
Long Entry: Triggered when qrsi_ma crosses above the oversold level (oversoldLevel, default: 1).
Long Exit: Triggered when qrsi_ma crosses below the overbought level (overboughtLevel, default: 99).
Entry and Exit Rules
Long Entry: Enter a long position when the Contrarian RSI (qrsi_ma) crosses above the oversold level (default: 1). This suggests the asset is potentially oversold and due for a reversal.
Long Exit: Exit the long position when the Contrarian RSI (qrsi_ma) crosses below the overbought level (default: 99), indicating a potential overbought condition and a reversal to the downside.
Customization: Adjust overboughtLevel and oversoldLevel to fine-tune sensitivity. Lower timeframes may benefit from tighter levels (e.g., 20 for oversold, 80 for overbought), while higher timeframes can use extreme levels (e.g., 1 and 99) for stronger reversals.
Timeframe Considerations
Higher Timeframes (Recommended): The indicator is optimized for higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, Daily) due to its reliance on predictive ranges and smoothed momentum, which perform best with less market noise. These timeframes typically yield more reliable reversal signals.
Lower Timeframes: The indicator can be used on lower timeframes (e.g., 5M, 15M), but signals may be noisier and require additional confirmation (e.g., from price action or other indicators). Extensive backtesting and parameter optimization (e.g., adjusting crsiLength, maLength, or mult) are recommended for lower timeframes.
Inputs
Contrarian RSI Length (crsiLength): Length for RSI momentum calculation (default: 5).
RSI MA Length (maLength): Length of the moving average applied to the RSI (default: 1, effectively no MA).
MA Type (maType): Choose from SMA, EMA, WMA, SMMA, or VWMA (default: SMA).
Overbought Level (overboughtLevel): Upper threshold for exit signals (default: 99).
Oversold Level (oversoldLevel): Lower threshold for entry signals (default: 1).
Plot Signals on Main Chart (plotOnChart): Toggle to display signals on the price chart or the indicator panel (default: false).
Plotted on Lower:
Plotted on Chart:
5 Levels Length (length5Levels): Length for predictive range calculation (default: 200).
Factor (mult): ATR multiplier for predictive ranges (default: 6.0).
5 Levels Timeframe (tf5Levels): Timeframe for predictive range calculation (default: chart timeframe).
Visuals
Contrarian RSI MA: Plotted as a yellow line, representing the smoothed Contrarian RSI with the applied moving average.
Overbought/Oversold Lines: Red line for overbought (default: 99) and green line for oversold (default: 1).
Signals: Blue circles for long entries, white circles for long exits. Signals can be plotted on the main chart (plotOnChart = true) or the indicator panel (plotOnChart = false).
Usage Notes
Use the indicator in conjunction with other tools (e.g., support/resistance, trendlines, or volume) to confirm signals.
Test extensively on your chosen timeframe and asset to optimize parameters like crsiLength, maLength, and mult.
Be cautious with lower timeframes, as false signals may occur due to market noise.
The indicator is designed for contrarian strategies, so it works best in markets with clear reversal patterns.

Anti-SMT + FVG SignalMade by Laila
Anti-SMT + FVG Strategy
A contrarian price-action strategy that combines SMT illusion with Fair Value Gap (FVG) confirmation and multiple filters.
Strategy Concept
This strategy challenges traditional SMT divergence logic. Instead of entering trades based on expected SMT divergence between correlated pairs (e.g., EURUSD and DXY), it assumes the divergence is false and will reverse. The concept is to take advantage of these false signals, also known as "SMT illusions."
To confirm the setup, the strategy integrates Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), which are price imbalances left unfilled between candle 1 and 3.
Anti-SMT Logic
Short Entry:
EURUSD makes a new high (Candle 1)
DXY does not make a new low
Long Entry:
EURUSD makes a new low (Candle 1)
DXY does not make a new high
This divergence is considered false, and the strategy expects a reversal.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) Confirmation
A trade is only triggered if the price touches a Fair Value Gap during:
Candle 1 (the candle that forms the SMT illusion), or
Candle 2 (entry confirmation)
This helps avoid low-quality setups and increases entry precision.
Additional Filters
To improve robustness and prevent overfitting, the strategy includes:
EMA Trend Filter:
Long entries are allowed only if price is above the 50 EMA
Short entries are allowed only if price is below the 50 EMA
Time Filter:
Trades are only permitted between 08:00 and 18:00 UTC
Cooldown Filter:
A minimum of 10 candles between trades is required to prevent overtrading
Strategy Parameters and Defaults
Optimized for EURUSD on the 4-hour (4H) timeframe
Includes realistic commission and slippage
Uses conservative position sizing (e.g., 1% per trade)
Backtesting over hundreds of trades shows approximately 57% win rate under default conditions
These results are historical and do not guarantee future performance
Purpose and Value
This strategy offers a structured and logical approach to contrarian trading by:
Introducing the concept of false SMT divergence
Using price inefficiencies (FVGs) as confirmation
Filtering trades with realistic and widely accepted conditions
Encouraging quality over quantity through strict entry rules
It is not a simple mashup but a well-defined trading system that blends institutional concepts in a usable framework.

Ergodic Market Divergence (EMD)Ergodic Market Divergence (EMD)
Bridging Statistical Physics and Market Dynamics Through Ensemble Analysis
The Revolutionary Concept: When Physics Meets Trading
After months of research into ergodic theory—a fundamental principle in statistical mechanics—I've developed a trading system that identifies when markets transition between predictable and unpredictable states. This indicator doesn't just follow price; it analyzes whether current market behavior will persist or revert, giving traders a scientific edge in timing entries and exits.
The Core Innovation: Ergodic Theory Applied to Markets
What Makes Markets Ergodic or Non-Ergodic?
In statistical physics, ergodicity determines whether a system's future resembles its past. Applied to trading:
Ergodic Markets (Mean-Reverting)
- Time averages equal ensemble averages
- Historical patterns repeat reliably
- Price oscillates around equilibrium
- Traditional indicators work well
Non-Ergodic Markets (Trending)
- Path dependency dominates
- History doesn't predict future
- Price creates new equilibrium levels
- Momentum strategies excel
The Mathematical Framework
The Ergodic Score combines three critical divergences:
Ergodic Score = (Price Divergence × Market Stress + Return Divergence × 1000 + Volatility Divergence × 50) / 3
Where:
Price Divergence: How far current price deviates from market consensus
Return Divergence: Momentum differential between instrument and market
Volatility Divergence: Volatility regime misalignment
Market Stress: Adaptive multiplier based on current conditions
The Ensemble Analysis Revolution
Beyond Single-Instrument Analysis
Traditional indicators analyze one chart in isolation. EMD monitors multiple correlated markets simultaneously (SPY, QQQ, IWM, DIA) to detect systemic regime changes. This ensemble approach:
Reveals Hidden Divergences: Individual stocks may diverge from market consensus before major moves
Filters False Signals: Requires broader market confirmation
Identifies Regime Shifts: Detects when entire market structure changes
Provides Context: Shows if moves are isolated or systemic
Dynamic Threshold Adaptation
Unlike fixed-threshold systems, EMD's boundaries evolve with market conditions:
Base Threshold = SMA(Ergodic Score, Lookback × 3)
Adaptive Component = StDev(Ergodic Score, Lookback × 2) × Sensitivity
Final Threshold = Smoothed(Base + Adaptive)
This creates context-aware signals that remain effective across different market environments.
The Confidence Engine: Know Your Signal Quality
Multi-Factor Confidence Scoring
Every signal receives a confidence score based on:
Signal Clarity (0-35%): How decisively the ergodic threshold is crossed
Momentum Strength (0-25%): Rate of ergodic change
Volatility Alignment (0-20%): Whether volatility supports the signal
Market Quality (0-20%): Price convergence and path dependency factors
Real-Time Confidence Updates
The Live Confidence metric continuously updates, showing:
- Current opportunity quality
- Market state clarity
- Historical performance influence
- Signal recency boost
- Visual Intelligence System
Adaptive Ergodic Field Bands
Dynamic bands that expand and contract based on market state:
Primary Color: Ergodic state (mean-reverting)
Danger Color: Non-ergodic state (trending)
Band Width: Expected price movement range
Squeeze Indicators: Volatility compression warnings
Quantum Wave Ribbons
Triple EMA system (8, 21, 55) revealing market flow:
Compressed Ribbons: Consolidation imminent

Trailing Stop Loss [TradingFinder] 4 Machine Learning Methods🔵 Introduction
The trailing stop indicator dynamically adjusts stop-loss (SL) levels to lock in profits as price moves favorably. It uses pivot levels and ATR to set optimal SL points, balancing risk and reward.
Trade confirmation filters, a key feature, ensure entries align with market conditions, reducing false signals. In 2023 a study showed filtered entries improve win rates by 15% in forex. This enhances trade precision.
SL settings, ranging from very tight to very wide, adapt to volatility via ATR calculations. These settings anchor SL to previous pivot levels, ensuring alignment with market structure. This caters to diverse trading styles, from scalping to swing trading.
The indicator colors the profit zone between the entry point (EP) and SL, using light green for buy trades and light red for sell trades. This visual cue highlights profit potential. It’s ideal for traders seeking dynamic risk management.
A table displays real-time trade details, including EP, SL, and profit/loss (PNL). Backtests show trailing stops cut losses by 20% in trending markets. This transparency aids decision-making.
🔵 How to Use
🟣 SL Levels
The trailing stop indicator sets SL based on pivot levels and ATR, offering four options: very tight, tight, wide, or very wide. Very tight SLs suit scalpers, while wide SLs fit swing traders. Select the base level to match your strategy.
If price hits the SL, the trade closes, and the indicator evaluates the next trade using the selected filter. This ensures disciplined trade management. The cycle restarts with a new confirmed entry.
Very tight SLs, set near recent pivots, trigger exits early to minimize risk but limit profits in volatile markets. Wide SLs, shown as farther lines, allow more price movement but increase exposure to losses. Adjust based on ATR and conditions, noting SL breaches open new positions.
🟣 Visualization
The indicator’s visual cues, like colored profit zones, simplify monitoring, with light green showing the profit area from EP to trailed SL. Dashed lines mark entry points, while solid lines track the trailed SL, triggering new positions when breached.
When price moves into profit, the area between EP and SL is colored—light green for longs, light red for shorts. This highlights the profit zone visually. The SL trails price, locking in gains as the trade progresses.
🟣 Filters
Upon trade entry, the indicator requires confirmation via filters like SMA 2x or ADX to validate momentum. Filters reduce false entries, though no guarantee exists for improved outcomes. Monitor price action post-entry for trade validity.
Filters like Momentum or ADX assess trend strength before entry. For example, ADX above 25 confirms strong trends. Choose “none” for unfiltered entries.
🟣 Bullish Alert
For a bullish trade, the indicator opens a long position with a green SL Line (after optional filters), trailing the SL below price. Set alerts to On in the settings for notifications, or Off to monitor manually.
🟣 Bearish Alert
In a bearish trade, the indicator opens a short position with a red SL Line post-confirmation, trailing the SL above price. With alerts On in the settings, it notifies the potential reversal.
🟣 Panel
A table displays all trades’ details, including Win Rates, PNL, and trade status. This real-time data aids in tracking performance. Check the table to assess trade outcomes instantly.
Review the table regularly to evaluate trade performance and adjust settings. Consistent monitoring ensures alignment with market dynamics. This maximizes the indicator’s effectiveness.
🔵 Settings
Length (Default: 10) : Sets the pivot period for calculating SL levels, balancing sensitivity and reliability.
Base Level : Options (“Very tight,” “Tight,” “Wide,” “Very wide”) adjust SL distance via ATR.
Show EP Checkbox : Toggles visibility of the entry point on the chart.
Show PNL : Displays profit/loss data for active and closed trades.
Filter : Options (“none,” “SMA 2x,” “Momentum,” “ADX”) validate trade entries.
🔵 Conclusion
The trailing stop indicator, a dynamic risk management tool, adjusts SLs using pivot levels and ATR. Its confirmation filters reduce false entries, boosting precision. Backtests show 20% loss reduction in trending markets.
Customizable SL settings and visual profit zones enhance usability across trading styles. The real-time table provides clear trade insights, streamlining analysis. It’s ideal for forex, stocks, or crypto.
While filters like ADX improve entry accuracy, no setup guarantees success in all conditions. Contextual analysis, like trend strength, is key. This indicator empowers disciplined, data-driven trading.
Lyapunov Market Instability (LMI)Lyapunov Market Instability (LMI)
What is Lyapunov Market Instability?
Lyapunov Market Instability (LMI) is a revolutionary indicator that brings chaos theory from theoretical physics into practical trading. By calculating Lyapunov exponents—a measure of how rapidly nearby trajectories diverge in phase space—LMI quantifies market sensitivity to initial conditions. This isn't another oscillator or trend indicator; it's a mathematical lens that reveals whether markets are in chaotic (trending) or stable (ranging) regimes.
Inspired by the meditative color field paintings of Mark Rothko, this indicator transforms complex chaos mathematics into an intuitive visual experience. The elegant simplicity of the visualization belies the sophisticated theory underneath—just as Rothko's seemingly simple color blocks contain profound depth.
Theoretical Foundation (Chaos Theory & Lyapunov Exponents)
In dynamical systems, the Lyapunov exponent (λ) measures the rate of separation of infinitesimally close trajectories:
λ > 0: System is chaotic—small changes lead to dramatically different outcomes (butterfly effect)
λ < 0: System is stable—trajectories converge, perturbations die out
λ ≈ 0: Edge of chaos—transition between regimes
Phase Space Reconstruction
Using Takens' embedding theorem , we reconstruct market dynamics in higher dimensions:
Time-delay embedding: Create vectors from price at different lags
Nearest neighbor search: Find historically similar market states
Trajectory evolution: Track how these similar states diverged over time
Divergence rate: Calculate average exponential separation
Market Application
Chaotic markets (λ > threshold): Strong trends emerge, momentum dominates, use breakout strategies
Stable markets (λ < threshold): Mean reversion dominates, fade extremes, range-bound strategies work
Transition zones: Market regime about to change, reduce position size, wait for confirmation
How LMI Works
1. Phase Space Construction
Each point in time is embedded as a vector using historical prices at specific delays (τ). This reveals the market's hidden attractor structure.
2. Lyapunov Calculation
For each current state, we:
- Find similar historical states within epsilon (ε) distance
- Track how these initially similar states evolved
- Measure exponential divergence rate
- Average across multiple trajectories for robustness
3. Signal Generation
Chaos signals: When λ crosses above threshold, market enters trending regime
Stability signals: When λ crosses below threshold, market enters ranging regime
Divergence detection: Price/Lyapunov divergences signal potential reversals

Note: After completing this indicator, I discovered @loxx's 2022 "Lyapunov Hodrick-Prescott Oscillator w/ DSL". While both explore Lyapunov exponents, they represent independent implementations with different methodologies and applications. This indicator uses phase space reconstruction for regime detection, while his combines Lyapunov concepts with HP filtering.
