HILO Interpolation | QuantEdgeB🚀 Introducing HILO Interpolation by QuantEdgeB
🛠️ Overview
HILO Interpolation is a dynamic price-action based signal engine crafted to adapt across trending and ranging conditions. By leveraging percentile-based price band interpolation, it identifies high-confidence breakout and breakdown zones. This indicator is designed to serve both as a momentum trigger in trend phases and as a price-reactive entry system during range-bound consolidation.
By intelligently switching between percentile thresholds and interpolated logic, HILO minimizes noise and whipsaws commonly seen in traditional crossover systems.
✨ Key Features
🔹 Percentile Interpolation Engine
Tracks price breakouts using percentile thresholds, making it adaptable to volatility and asset-specific structure.
🔹 Price-Based Signal Confirmation
Signals are only triggered when price meaningfully crosses through key percentile thresholds (based on historical high/low logic).
🔹 Visual Trend Encoding
Color-coded candles, dynamic interpolation bands, and optional long/cash labels give clear visual cues for trend and trade direction.
🔹 Dynamic Threshold Switching
Interpolated threshold flips based on where price sits relative to percentile bands—providing adaptive long/short logic.
📊 How It Works
1️⃣ Percentile Zone Definition
HILO defines two key percentiles from the historical high and low:
• Upper Threshold: 75th Percentile of Highs
• Lower Threshold: 50th Percentile of Lows
These are calculated using linear interpolation to ensure smoother transitions across lookback periods.
2️⃣ Adaptive Signal Line
Instead of using static crossovers, HILO dynamically flips its signal based on whether price exceeds the upper threshold or falls below the lower one.
📌 If price > upper → Signal = Short threshold
📌 If price < lower → Signal = Long threshold
📌 If price remains between thresholds → no flip (trend continuation)
3️⃣ Signal Logic
✅ Long Signal → Price exceeds upper bound while lower bound acts as ceiling
❌ Short Signal → Price breaks below lower percentile while upper bound flips
This simple yet powerful mechanism creates early entries while maintaining high signal confidence.
👁 Visual & Custom Features
• 🎨 Multiple Color Modes: Strategy, Solar, Warm, Cool, Classic, Magic
• 🔄 Dynamic Candle & Band Coloring
• 🏷️ Signal Labels: Optional “𝓛𝓸𝓷𝓰” and “𝓢𝓱𝓸𝓻𝓽” tags when trend flips
• 💬 Alerts Ready: Long/Short crossover conditions can trigger alerts instantly
👥 Who Should Use HILO?
✅ Breakout Traders – Catch early trend starts using percentile filters
✅ Swing Traders – Identify directional bias shifts in advance
✅ Range Strategists – Use band confluence zones to play reversions
✅ Quant & Rule-Based Traders – Incorporate percentile logic into broader systems
⚙️ Customization & Default Settings
Percentile Length:(Default 35) Lookback for calculating percentile thresholds
Lookback Period:(Default 4) Lag factor for interpolation responsiveness
Upper % Threshold: (Default 75) Defines breakout zone from historical highs
Lower % Threshold: (Default 50) Defines retest/accumulation zone from historical lows
📌 How to Use HILO in Trading
1️⃣ Trend-Following Strategy
✔ Enter long when price flips above the adaptive support line
✔ Exit or go short when price breaks below the interpolated resistance
✔ Continue position as long as trend color persists
2️⃣ Range-Reversion Strategy
✔ Buy when price tests the lower threshold and no short signal is triggered
✔ Sell or reduce when price hits the upper range boundary
🧠 Why It Works
HILO operates on the principle that historical price structure creates natural probabilistic thresholds. By interpolating between these using percentile logic, the system maintains adaptability to changing market conditions—without the lag of moving averages or the noise of fixed bands.
🔹 Conclusion
HILO Interpolation is a minimalist yet powerful signal engine built for adaptive breakout and reversion detection. Its percentile-based logic offers a novel way to identify structure shifts, giving traders an edge in both trend and range markets.
🔹 Key Takeaways:
1️⃣ Breakout Entry Logic – Uses percentile interpolation instead of static bands
2️⃣ Color-Driven Clarity – Visual clarity via gradient zone overlays
3️⃣ Trend Integrity – Avoids overfitting and responds only to significant price movements
📌 Disclaimer: Past performance is not indicative of future results. No trading strategy can guarantee success in financial markets.
📌 Strategic Advice: Always backtest, optimize, and align parameters with your trading objectives and risk tolerance before live trading.

Nef33-Volume Footprint ApproximationDescription of the "Volume Footprint Approximation" Indicator
Purpose
The "Volume Footprint Approximation" indicator is a tool designed to assist traders in analyzing market volume dynamics and anticipating potential trend changes in price. It is inspired by the concept of a volume footprint chart, which visualizes the distribution of trading volume across different price levels. However, since TradingView does not provide detailed intrabar data for all users, this indicator approximates the behavior of a footprint chart by using available volume and price data (open, close, volume) to classify volume as buy or sell, calculate volume delta, detect imbalances, and generate trend change signals.
The indicator is particularly useful for identifying areas of high buying or selling activity, imbalances between supply and demand, delta divergences, and potential reversal points in the market. It provides specific signals for bullish and bearish trend changes, making it suitable for traders looking to trade reversals or confirm trends.
How It Works
The indicator uses volume and price data from each candlestick to perform the following calculations:
Volume Classification:
Classifies the volume of each candlestick as "buy" or "sell" based on price movement:
If the closing price is higher than the opening price (close > open), the volume is classified as "buy."
If the closing price is lower than the opening price (close < open), the volume is classified as "sell."
If the closing price equals the opening price (close == open), it compares with the previous close to determine the direction:
If the current close is higher than the previous close, it is classified as "buy."
If the current close is lower than the previous close, it is classified as "sell."
If the current close equals the previous close, the classification from the previous bar is used.
Delta Calculation:
Calculates the volume delta as the difference between buy volume and sell volume (buyVolume - sellVolume).
A positive delta indicates more buy volume; a negative delta indicates more sell volume.
Imbalance Detection:
Identifies imbalances between buy and sell volume:
A buy imbalance occurs when buy volume exceeds sell volume by a defined percentage (default is 300%).
A sell imbalance occurs when sell volume exceeds buy volume by the same percentage.
Delta Divergence Detection:
Positive Delta Divergence: Occurs when the price is falling (for at least 2 bars) but the delta is increasing or becomes positive, indicating that buyers are entering despite the price decline.
Negative Delta Divergence: Occurs when the price is rising (for at least 2 bars) but the delta is decreasing or becomes negative, indicating that sellers are entering despite the price increase.
Trend Change Signals:
Bullish Signal (trendChangeBullish): Generated when the following conditions are met:
There is a positive delta divergence.
The delta has moved from a negative value (e.g., -500) to a positive value (e.g., +200) over the last 3 bars.
There is a buy imbalance.
The price is near a historical support level (approximated as the lowest low of the last 50 bars).
Bearish Signal (trendChangeBearish): Generated when the following conditions are met:
There is a negative delta divergence.
The delta has moved from a positive value (e.g., +500) to a negative value (e.g., -200) over the last 3 bars.
There is a sell imbalance.
The price is near a historical resistance level (approximated as the highest high of the last 50 bars).
Visual Elements
The indicator is displayed in a separate panel below the price chart (overlay=false) and includes the following elements:
Volume Histograms:
Buy Volume: Represented by a green histogram. Shows the volume classified as "buy."
Sell Volume: Represented by a red histogram. Shows the volume classified as "sell."
Note: The histograms overlap, and the last plotted histogram (red) takes visual precedence, meaning the sell volume may cover the buy volume if it is larger.
Delta Line:
Delta Volume: Represented by a blue line. Shows the difference between buy and sell volume.
A line above zero indicates more buy volume; a line below zero indicates more sell volume.
A dashed gray horizontal line marks the zero level for easier interpretation.
Imbalance Backgrounds:
Buy Imbalance: Light green background when buy volume exceeds sell volume by the defined percentage.
Sell Imbalance: Light red background when sell volume exceeds buy volume by the defined percentage.
Divergence Backgrounds:
Positive Delta Divergence: Lime green background when a positive delta divergence is detected.
Negative Delta Divergence: Fuchsia background when a negative delta divergence is detected.
Trend Change Signals:
Bullish Signal: Green label with the text "Bullish Trend Change" when the conditions for a bullish trend change are met.
Bearish Signal: Red label with the text "Bearish Trend Change" when the conditions for a bearish trend change are met.
Information Labels:
Below each bar, a label displays:
Total Vol: The total volume of the bar.
Delta: The delta volume value.
Alerts
The indicator generates the following alerts:
Positive Delta Divergence: "Positive Delta Divergence Detected! Price is falling, but delta is increasing."
Negative Delta Divergence: "Negative Delta Divergence Detected! Price is rising, but delta is decreasing."
Bullish Trend Change Signal: "Bullish Trend Change Signal! Positive Delta Divergence, Delta Rise, Buy Imbalance, and Near Support."
Bearish Trend Change Signal: "Bearish Trend Change Signal! Negative Delta Divergence, Delta Drop, Sell Imbalance, and Near Resistance."
These alerts can be configured in TradingView to receive real-time notifications.
Adjustable Parameters
The indicator allows customization of the following parameters:
Imbalance Threshold (%): The percentage required to detect an imbalance between buy and sell volume (default is 300%).
Lookback Period for Divergence: Number of bars to look back for detecting price and delta trends (default is 2 bars).
Support/Resistance Lookback Period: Number of bars to look back for identifying historical support and resistance levels (default is 50 bars).
Delta High Threshold (Bearish): Minimum delta value 2 bars ago for the bearish signal (default is +500).
Delta Low Threshold (Bearish): Maximum delta value in the current bar for the bearish signal (default is -200).
Delta Low Threshold (Bullish): Maximum delta value 2 bars ago for the bullish signal (default is -500).
Delta High Threshold (Bullish): Minimum delta value in the current bar for the bullish signal (default is +200).
Practical Use
The indicator is useful for the following purposes:
Identifying Trend Changes:
The trend change signals (trendChangeBullish and trendChangeBearish) indicate potential price reversals. For example, a bullish signal near a support level may be an opportunity to enter a long position.
Detecting Divergences:
Delta divergences (positive and negative) can anticipate trend changes by showing a disagreement between price movement and underlying buying/selling pressure.
Finding Key Levels:
Imbalances (green and red backgrounds) often coincide with support and resistance levels, helping to identify areas where the market might react.
Confirming Trends:
A consistently positive delta in an uptrend or a negative delta in a downtrend can confirm the strength of the trend.
Identifying Failed Auctions:
Although not detected automatically, you can manually identify failed auctions by observing a price move to new highs/lows with decreasing volume in the direction of the move.
Limitations
Intrabar Data: It does not use detailed intrabar data, making it less precise than a native footprint chart.
Approximations: Volume classification and support/resistance detection are approximations, which may lead to false signals.
Volume Dependency: It requires reliable volume data, so it may be less effective on assets with inaccurate volume data (e.g., some forex pairs).
False Signals: Divergences and imbalances do not always indicate a trend change, especially in strongly trending markets.
Recommendations
Combine with Other Indicators: Use tools like RSI, MACD, support/resistance levels, or candlestick patterns to confirm signals.
Trade on Higher Timeframes: Signals are more reliable on higher timeframes like 1-hour or 4-hour charts.
Perform Backtesting: Evaluate the indicator's accuracy on historical data to adjust parameters and improve effectiveness.
Adjust Parameters: Modify thresholds (e.g., imbalanceThreshold or supportResistanceLookback) based on the asset and timeframe you are trading.
Conclusion
The "Volume Footprint Approximation" indicator is a powerful tool for analyzing volume dynamics and anticipating price trend changes. By classifying volume, calculating delta, detecting imbalances and divergences, and generating trend change signals, it provides traders with valuable insights into market buying and selling pressure. While it has limitations due to the lack of intrabar data, it can be highly effective when used in combination with other technical analysis tools and on assets with reliable volume data.
ICT CRT Model Range with EquilibriumICT CRT Model Range with Equilibrium Indicator
This indicator calculates and displays the high, low, and equilibrium levels within a custom-defined session (9:00 am to 10:00 am New York Time and the lines will stop appearing at 16:00pm ). It draws horizontal lines to represent the session's range and marks the equilibrium point as a reference.
What is CRT (Candle Range Theory)?
Candle Range Theory (CRT) is based on the concept that every candle on any timeframe forms its own range. These ranges can either be manipulated—through strategies like Turtle Soup—or broken, resulting in price movements such as engulfing patterns, breakouts, and retests beyond the candle's high or low.
CRT is commonly visualized as a 3-candle model, but it can include more candles due to the presence of inside bars. An inside bar is a candle whose high is not higher than the previous candle's high and whose low is not lower than the previous candle's low.
The CRT model follows the A-M-D structure:
Accumulation (A): The first candle or group of candles (inside bars) represents market consolidation.
Manipulation (M): The second candle signals a false move, often a Turtle Soup setup designed to trap traders.
Distribution (D): The third candle confirms the true market move, breaking out of the range and establishing the trend.
Customizable Settings:
Line Colors: Choose your preferred colors for the high, low, and equilibrium lines.
Line Widths: Adjust the thickness of the lines for better visibility.
Line Styles: Select from solid, dotted, or dashed styles for each line.
Label Settings: Customize the text and colors of the labels for the high, low, and equilibrium points.
Traders can easily modify these settings to suit their visual preferences and trading strategies. This indicator is ideal for identifying price action within a specific range, offering clear visual cues for potential CRT Setup.

Fair Value Gap (FVG) Oscillator [UAlgo]The "Fair Value Gap (FVG) Oscillator " is designed to identify and visualize Fair Value Gaps (FVG) within a given lookback period on a trading chart. This indicator helps traders by highlighting areas where price gaps may signify potential trading opportunities, specifically bullish and bearish patterns. By leveraging volume and Average True Range (ATR) data, the FVG Oscillator aims to enhance the accuracy of pattern recognition and provide more reliable signals for trading decisions.
🔶 Identification of Fair Value Gap (FVG)
Fair Value Gaps (FVG) are specific price areas where gaps occur, and they are often considered significant in technical analysis. These gaps can indicate potential future price movements as the market may return to fill these gaps. This indicator identifies two types of FVGs:
Bullish FVG: Occurs when the current low price is higher than the high price two periods ago. This condition suggests a potential upward price movement.
Obtains with:
low > high
Bearish FVG: Occurs when the current high price is lower than the low price two periods ago. This condition suggests a potential downward price movement.
Obtains with:
high < low
The FVG Oscillator not only identifies these gaps but also verifies them using volume and ATR conditions to ensure more reliable trading signals.
🔶 Key Features
Lookback Period: Users can set the lookback period to determine how far back the indicator should search for FVG patterns.
ATR Multiplier: The ATR Multiplier is used to adjust the sensitivity of the ATR-based conditions for verifying FVG patterns.
Volume SMA Period: This setting determines the period for the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the volume, which helps in identifying high volume conditions.
Why ATR and Volume are Used?
ATR (Average True Range) and volume are integrated into the Fair Value Gap (FVG) Oscillator to enhance the accuracy and reliability of the identified patterns. ATR measures market volatility, helping to filter out insignificant price gaps and focus on impactful ones, ensuring that the signals are relevant and strong. Volume, on the other hand, confirms the strength of price movements. High volume often indicates the sustainability of these movements, reducing the likelihood of false signals. Together, ATR and volume ensure that the detected FVGs are both significant and supported by market activity, providing more trustworthy trading signals.
Normalized Values: The FVG counts are normalized to enhance the visual representation and interpretation of the patterns on the chart.
Visual Customization and Plotting: Users can customize the colors for positive (bullish) and negative (bearish) areas, and choose whether to display these areas on the chart, also plots the bullish and bearish FVG counts, a zero line, and the net value of FVG counts. Additionally, it uses histograms to display the width of verified bullish and bearish patterns.

Volume-Enhanced Momentum Moving Average (VEMMA)Volume-Enhanced Momentum Moving Average (VEMMA)
Overview:
The Volume-Enhanced Momentum Moving Average (VEMMA) helps you spot market trends by combining momentum and volume as a moving average. This unique moving average adjusts itself based on the strength and activity of the market, giving you a clearer picture of what’s happening.
How It Works:
1. Key Settings (all of these are adjustable in the settings panel of the indicator):
◦ Base Length: Looks back over the last 50 days by default.
◦ Momentum Length: Uses the past 14 days to measure market strength.
◦ Volume Length: Uses the past 30 days to average trading volume.
◦ High/Low Thresholds: Considers RSI values above 70 as high momentum and below 30 as low momentum.
2. Momentum and Volume:
◦ Momentum: Calculated using the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to see if the market is gaining or losing strength.
◦ Volume: Average trading volume is calculated over the last 30 days to gauge trading activity.
3. VEMMA Calculation:
◦ For each of the past 50 days:
▪ Check Momentum: If RSI > 70, it’s high momentum; if RSI < 30, it’s low.
▪ Weight by Volume: High momentum days with high volume get more weight; low momentum days get less.
▪ Combine: Multiply the closing price by this weight and sum it up.
◦ Average: Divide the total by 50 to get the VEMMA value.
4. Visuals:
◦ Lines: Two lines, VEMMA1 (blue) and VEMMA2 (orange), show the adjusted moving averages.
◦ Colours: Background colors help you quickly spot high (green) and low (red) momentum periods.
How to Use:
• Spot Trends: Rising VEMMA lines suggest an uptrend; falling lines suggest a downtrend.
• Confirm Signals: When both VEMMA1 and VEMMA2 move together, it indicates a strong trend.
• Identify Reversals: Watch for background color changes from green to red or vice versa to catch potential trend reversals.
If the market has been strong and active, the VEMMA line will rise more sharply. If the market is weak and quiet, the line will be smoother.
Benefits:
• Integrated View: Combines market strength and trading activity for a fuller picture.
• Responsive: Adapts to significant market changes, highlighting key movements.
• Easy to Read: Clear visuals with color-coded backgrounds make interpretation simple.
Remember, just like any other indicator, this is not supposed to be used alone. Use it as part of your greater trading strategy. I do however believe it works exceptionally well for finding longer term trends early. The default VEMMA settings work very well as replacement for the EMA 200. Try it and see how it goes. Play around with the settings. Feedback appreciated.

Dual Dynamic Fibonacci Retracement — Long and Short Duration
Title : "The Dual-Dynamic Fibonacci Retracement Script: An Advanced Tool for Comprehensive Market Analysis"
As the author of the "Dual-Dynamic Fibonacci Retracement Script", I am delighted to introduce you to this cutting-edge tool for technical analysis. Unlike conventional Fibonacci scripts, this advanced model incorporates multiple unique features and adjustments that make it a powerful asset for any market analyst. Whether you're dealing with forex, commodities, equities or any other market, this script is versatile enough to enhance your trading strategy.
Uniqueness & Differentiation:
The "Dual-Dynamic Fibonacci Script" stands out by offering two distinct lookback periods. This feature is what separates it from other scripts available in the market. The first lookback period is longer, focusing on capturing broader market trends. The second lookback period is shorter, allowing for a more granular analysis of near-term market fluctuations. This dual perspective provides a more comprehensive view of the market, allowing you to see both the forest and the trees at the same time.
Fibonacci Levels:
While offering the standard Fibonacci retracement levels (0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786, and 1.0), the script also gives you the ability to plot 0.114 and 0.886 levels. These additional levels offer an extra layer of depth to your analysis, and can prove crucial in high-volatility markets where they often serve as significant support and resistance points.
Customizable Line Shifts and Extends:
This script provides options for customization of the shift and extension of the plotted lines. This means you can adjust the start and end points of the Fibonacci lines according to your personal trading style and strategy. This level of personalization is not typically available in other scripts, and it allows for a more tailored visual representation.
Flexible Trading Positioning:
Depending on whether the closing price is above or below the midpoint of the pivot high and pivot low, the Fibonacci retracement levels are adjusted accordingly. This ensures the script remains relevant and useful regardless of market conditions.
Clean Visualization:
To prevent clutter and maintain focus on the most relevant price action, the script removes old Fibonacci lines and plots new ones once a new pivot high or low is identified. This clean visualization helps keep your analysis focused and sharp.
How to Use the Script:
To get started, simply adjust the lookback periods according to your trading strategy. If you're a long-term investor or prefer swing trading, a longer lookback period might be appropriate. Conversely, if you're a day trader, a shorter lookback period might be more beneficial.
The "Shift" and "Extend" inputs allow you to control the positioning of the Fibonacci lines on your chart. Positive values shift the lines to the right, while negative values shift them to the left.
You also have the choice to plot the additional Fibonacci levels (0.114 and 0.886) via the "Plot 0.114 and 0.886 levels?" input. Similarly, the "Plot second set of levels?" input lets you decide whether to display the second set of Fibonacci levels derived from the shorter lookback period.
Like any technical analysis tool, this script is most effective when used in conjunction with other indicators and methods of analysis. It is designed to work well in trending markets, where Fibonacci retracements can often indicate potential reversal levels. However, it's always recommended to use a holistic approach to market analysis to maximize the likelihood of successful trades.
Note: the two lines drawn on the chart are there to help the user identify the levels from which the two respective Fib sequences are calculated.
~~~
Input Explanations:
Long Period Pivot High/Low Lookback and Short Period Pivot High/Low Lookback : These settings determine the length of the lookback periods for the long-term and short-term pivot points, respectively. A pivot point is a technical analysis indicator used to determine the overall trend of the market over different time frames. The pivot points are then used to calculate the Fibonacci levels. A longer lookback period will identify pivot points over a broader time frame, capturing major market trends, while a shorter lookback period will identify pivot points over a narrower time frame, capturing more immediate market movements.
Long Period Fibonacci Level Shift and Short Period Fibonacci Level Shift : These inputs control the shift of the Fibonacci levels based on the long and short lookback periods, respectively. If you want to shift the Fibonacci levels to the right, increase the value. If you want to shift the Fibonacci levels to the left, decrease the value. This allows you to adjust the Fibonacci levels to better align with your analysis.
Long Period Fibonacci Level Extend and Short Period Fibonacci Level Extend : These inputs control the extension of the Fibonacci levels based on the long and short lookback periods, respectively. If you want the Fibonacci levels to extend further to the right, increase the value. If you want the Fibonacci levels to extend less to the right, decrease the value. This feature provides the flexibility to adjust the length of the Fibonacci levels according to your personal trading preferences and strategy.
Plot 0.114 and 0.886 levels? : This setting gives you the ability to plot the additional 0.114 and 0.886 Fibonacci levels. These levels provide extra depth to your analysis, particularly in highly volatile markets where they can act as significant support and resistance levels.
Plot second set of levels? : This input allows you to decide whether to plot the second set of Fibonacci levels based on the short lookback period. Displaying this second set of levels can provide a more granular view of market movements and potential reversal points, enhancing your overall analysis.

DB Change Forecast ProDB Change Forecast Pro
What does the indicator do?
The DB Change Forecast Pro is a unique indicator that uses price change on HLC3 to detect buy and sell periods along with plotting a linear regression price channel with oversold and undersold zones. It also has a linear regression change forecast mode to optionally project market direction.
Change is calculated by taking a two-bar change of HLC3 and dividing that by the price or, optionally, a fixed divisor.
A fast-moving change cloud is then calculated and displayed as the "regular version" plot (shown in light gray). When the cloud bottom is above low, a buy zone is detected. When the cloud top is below the high, a sell zone is detected.
The linear regression price channel is calculated similarly but using a much slower change rate. The linear regression price channel shows reasonable high, low and HLC3 ranges. At the bar's opening, the channel will be more compact and come fairly accurate about 1/4 into the bar timeframe.
The change forecasted price is projected on the right side of the current bar to indicate the current timeframe direction. Please note this forecasting feature is shown in orange when it's early in the timeframe and gray when the timeframe is more likely to produce an accurate direction forecast for the upcoming bar.
You can use these projected dashed lines to see possible market movements for the Current bar and possible market direction for the next bar. Kindly note these projects change; they should be used to understand possible extreme highs/lows for the current bar or market direction.
The indicator includes an optional change forecast projection feature hidden by default. It will project the market forecast channel with an offset of 1. The forecast is defaulted to an offset of 1 to show market direction. However, you can modify to zero the offset to show the current bar forecast and forecast history.
How should this indicator be used?
First, very important,
1. Settings > Set Symbol to Desired
2. Settings > Set High Timeframe to "Chart"
3. Settings > Ensure "Use price as divisor" is checked.
It's recommended to use this indicator in higher timeframes. Buy and sell signals are displayed in real-time. However, waiting until 1/4 to 1/2 into the current bar is recommended before taking action, and change can happen.
The buy/sell signals (zones) provide recommendations on playing a long vs. a short. When in a buy sone, only play longs. When in a sell zone, only play shorts.
Then use the linear regression price channel oversold and undersold zones to optionally open and close positions within the buy/sell zones.
For example, consider opening a long in a buy zone when the linear regression price channel shows undersold. Then consider closing the long when the price moves into the linear regression oversold or higher. Then repeat as long as it's in the buy zone. Then vice versa for sell zones and shorting.
At basic design, buy in the buy zone, sell or short in the sell zone. If you are up for higher trading frequencies, use the linear regression price channel as described in the example above.
Please note, as, with all indicators, you may need to adjust to fit the indicator to your symbol and desired timeframe.
This is only an example of use. Please use this indicator as your own risk and after doing your due diligence.
Does the indicator include any alerts?
Yes,
"DB CFHLC3: Signal BUY" - Is triggered when a buy signal is fired.
"DB CFHLC3: Signal SELL" - Is triggered when a sell signal is fired.
"DB CFHLC3: Zone BUY" - Is triggered when a buy zone is detected.
"DB CFHLC3: Zeon SELL" - Is triggered when a sell zone is detected.
"DB CFHLC3: Oversold SELL" - Is triggered when the price exceeds the oversold level.
"DB CFHLC3: Undersold BUY" - Is triggered when the price goes below the undersold level.
Any other tips?
Once you have configured the indicator for your symbol and chart timeframe. Meaning the plots are displayed over the price. Check out larger timeframes such as W, 2W, 3W, 4W, M, and 4M. It works wonderfully for showing market lows and highs for long-term investing too!
Another, tip is to combine it with your favorite indicator, such as TTM Squeeze or MACD for confirmation purposes. You may be surprised how fast the indicator shows market direction changes on higher timeframes.
You can just as easily use a high timeframe such as D, 2D, or 3D for day trading due to how the linear price channel works.
Why am I not selling this indicator?
I would like to bless the TradingView community, and I enjoy publishing custom indicators.
If you enjoy this indicator, please consider leaving a thumbs up or a comment for others to know about your experience or recommendations.

Mean Shift Pivot ClusteringCore Concepts
According to Jeff Greenblatt in his book "Breakthrough Strategies for Predicting Any Market", Fibonacci and Lucas sequences are observed repeated in the bar counts from local pivot highs/lows. They occur from high to high, low to high, high to low, or low to high. Essentially, this phenomenon is observed repeatedly from any pivot points on any time frame. Greenblatt combines this observation with Elliott Waves to predict the price and time reversals. However, I am no Elliottician so it was not easy for me to use this in a practical manner. I decided to only use the bar count projections and ignore the price. I projected a subset of Fibonacci and Lucas sequences along with the Fibonacci ratios from each pivot point. As expected, a projection from each pivot point resulted in a large set of plotted data and looks like a huge gong show of lines. Surprisingly, I did notice clusters and have observed those clusters to be fairly accurate.
Fibonacci Sequence: 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34...
Lucas Sequence: 2, 1, 3, 4, 7, 11, 18, 29, 47...
Fibonacci Ratios (converted to whole numbers): 23, 38, 50, 61, 78, 127, 161...
Light Bulb Moment
My eyes may suck at grouping the lines together but what about clustering algorithms? I chose to use a gimped version of Mean Shift because it doesn't require me to know in advance how many lines to expect like K-Means. Mean shift is computationally expensive and with Pinescript's 500ms timeout, I had to make due without the KDE. In other words, I skipped the weighting part but I may try to incorporate it in the future. The code is from Harrison Kinsley . He's a fantastic teacher!
Usage
Search Radius: how far apart should the bars be before they are excluded from the cluster? Try to stick with a figure between 1-5. Too large a figure will give meaningless results.
Pivot Offset: looks left and right X number of bars for a pivot. Same setting as the default TradingView pivot high/low script.
Show Lines Back: show historical predicted lines. (These can change)
Use this script in conjunction with Fibonacci price retracement/extension levels and/or other support/resistance levels. If it's no where near a support/resistance and there's a projected time pivot coming up, it's probably a fake out.
Notes
Re-painting is intended. When a new pivot is found, it will project out the Fib/Lucas sequences so the algorithm will run again with additional information.
The script is for informational and educational purposes only.
Do not use this indicator by itself to trade!
Qullamaggie Breakout V2After publishing the Qullamaggie Breakout script and seeing that it had some decent results, I wanted to explore it a bit further. There were a few things I didn't like about that methodology that didn't really jive with the way I like to trade. So what I did was combined the Breakout Trend Follower strategy I had been using for entries with the Qullamaggie strategy for trailing stops once in profit. The results seem pretty good to me and an approach that fits my personality and something I can actually trade. Typically better profit than the Breakout Trend Follower by giving more room for your winners to run, while still protecting your entries by moving up the trailing stop until you are in profit, all while taking less trades, so that's great.
Everything is done with stop orders. So you set your buy stop at the recent swing high point and wait for a breakout. Once in a position you set your sell stop at the recent swing low point. The most recent swing high and low are shown on the chart for easy reference with the blue and orange horizontal lines. Once in a trade, trail your sell stop after a new swing low is registered (shown by the thicker orange stop line). Once you are in profit, leave that hard stop level there (the orange line will stay there helping you). Now, you wait for price to cross a Moving Average of your choosing (default is Daily 10 MA). Once the bar crosses that moving average, you move your stop to the low of that candle (shown by the blue stop line) and trail your stop along every crossing of the moving average until the trend changes and takes out your stop. So managing this trade is pretty easy...just wait for the stop lines to move and move your stop with them. It's a great way to trade when you can't be at your computer all the time because the stop orders take care of execution on both buy and sell side. If you use a daily timeframe for your moving averages (the default), you really only need to move stops around about once a day, so is a good part time trader's strategy in my opinion.
The best opportunities will come by scanning for stocks in the longer term timeframe of your moving averages. Wait for a consolidation on that timeframe so the anticipated breakout has some room to run. Once you've identified a good candidate, zoom in to your lower timeframe where the swing highs/lows will act as your entry and exit points, all while keeping the moving averages consistent between timeframes.
Hope you guys find it useful.
A few options available:
- Choose any timeframe for your moving averages, while using swing high/low points on intraday charts.
- Choose one of two moving averages shown for your trailing stops (default 10 and 20 MA).
- Choose to use the third moving average as a filter for keeping you out of trades that are below it (trading with the trend).
- Use the charts resolution candle or the moving average resolution candle for the moving average trailing stop.
- Only take trades where your buy level minus stop level is below a % of the Average Daily Range (ADR). This allows you to potentially have better risk/reward. I added a little table that shows the ADR of the stock/ticker as well as the range between the recent buy and sell levels (shown by the orange and blue horizontal lines) for easy reference.
EulerMethod: DeltaEN
Shows the Integral Volume Delta (IVD)
It is a detailed OBV. Each bar sums up the volume for bars of a shorter timeframe.
For example, inside a 1M bar, every 12h bar is added up, and inside a 1h bar, every 1min bar is added. Thus, a conditional volume delta inside the bar is obtained.
The indicator for each bar shows the volume of purchases (positive), sales (negative) and the difference — IVD
The delta histogram is thicker than the volume histograms
Settings detalisation
M — 6 hours, 12 hours and 1 day for the M timeframe (720 by default)
W — 4 hours, 6 hours and 12 hours for the W timeframe (240 by default)
D — 30 minutes, 1 hour and 2 hours for the D timeframe (60 by default)
H — 1 minute, 5 minutes and 15 minutes for timeframes [1h, D) (default is 1)
For timeframes of 15m and less, the calculation is carried out by minute bars
VSA mode
The classic OBV adds volume to the cumulative sum under the condition Сlose (n) > Close (n-1) and subtracts it under the condition Close (n) < Close (n-1)
When VSA mode is disabled, all volumes are summed up under these conditions.
When the VSA approximation is turned on, the volume per bar of detail is divided by the factor (Close - Low) / (High - Low)
That is, it takes into account the spread per bar and closing relative to the spread. VSA is enabled by default
A/D mode
Shows the cumulative Accumulation / Distribution Index
The delta of the detail bar is multiplied by (High + Low + Close) / 3 bars, the result is added to the cumulative sum
No additional price conversions required due to integral summation
Index line view is customizable
EM Delta does not receive intermediate values in real time.
To see the result, wait until the bar closes or switch to a smaller timeframe

Показывает Интегральную Дельту Объёма (ИДО)
Представляет собой детализированный OBV. В каждом баре суммируется объём за бары меньшего таймфрейма.
Например, внутри 1М-бара суммируется каждый 12h-бар, а внутри 1h — каждый 1m-бар. Таким образом получается условная дельта объёма внутри бара
Индикатор на каждый бар показывает объём покупок (положительный), объём продаж (отрицательный) и разницу — ИДО
Гистограмма дельты толще гистограмм объёмов
Настройки детализации внутри бара
M — 6 часов, 12 часов и 1 день для таймфрейма M (по-умолчанию 720)
W — 4 часа, 6 часов и 12 часов для таймфрейма W (по-умолчанию 240)
D — 30 минут, 1 час и 2 часа для таймфрейма D (по-умолчанию 60)
H — 1 минута, 5 минут и 15 минут для таймфреймов [1h, D) (по-умолчанию 1)
Для таймфреймов 15m и меньше расчёт ведётся по минутным барам
Режим VSA
Классический OBV прибавляет объём к кумулятивной сумме при условии Сlose(n) > Close(n-1) и отнимает при условии Close(n) < Close(n-1)
При отключении режима VSA все объёмы суммируются по этим условиям
При включённой VSA-аппроксимации объём за бар детализации делится по фактору (Close - Low) / (High - Low)
То есть учитывает спред за бар и закрытие относительно спреда. По-умолчанию режим VSA включен
Режим A/D
Показывает кумулятивный индекс Накопления/Распределения
Дельта бара детализации умножается на (High + Low + Close) / 3 бара, результат прибавляется к кумулятивной сумме
Дополнительные преобразования цены не требуются ввиду интегрального суммирования
Вид линии индекса настраивается
EM Delta не получает промежуточные значения в реальном времени.

Apex Edge - London Open Session# Apex Edge - London Open Session Trading System
## Overview
The London Open Session indicator captures institutional price action during the first hour of the London forex session (8:00-9:00 AM GMT) and identifies high-probability breakout and retest opportunities. This system tracks the session's high/low range and generates precise entry signals when price breaks or retests these key institutional levels.
## Core Strategy
**Session Tracking**: Automatically identifies and marks the London Open session boundaries, creating a trading zone from the first hour's price range.
**Dual Entry Logic**:
- **Breakout Entries**: Triggers when price closes beyond the session high/low and continues in that direction
- **Retest Entries**: Activates when price returns to test the broken level as new support/resistance
**Performance Analytics**: Built-in win rate tracking displays real-time performance statistics over user-defined lookback periods, enabling data-driven optimization for each currency pair.
## Key Features
### Automated Zone Detection
- Precise London session timing with timezone offset controls
- Visual session boundaries with customizable colours
- Automatic high/low range calculation and display
### Smart Entry System
- Breakout confirmation requiring candle close beyond zone
- Retest detection with configurable pip distance tolerance
- Separate risk/reward ratios for breakout vs retest entries
- Visual entry arrows with clear trade direction labels
### Performance HUD
- Real-time win rate calculation over customizable periods (7-365 days)
- Total trades tracking with win/loss breakdown
- Average risk-reward ratio display
- Color-coded performance metrics (green >70%, yellow >50%, red <50%)
### PineConnector Integration
- Direct MT4/MT5 execution via PineConnector alerts
- Proper forex pip calculations for all currency pairs
- Customizable risk percentage per trade
- Symbol override capability for broker compatibility
- Automatic SL/TP level calculation in pips
## Critical Usage Requirements
### Pair-Specific Optimization
Each currency pair requires individual optimization due to varying volatility characteristics, institutional participation levels, and typical price ranges during London hours. The performance HUD is essential for identifying optimal settings before live trading.
**Recommended Testing Process**:
1. Apply indicator to desired currency pair and timeframe
2. Experiment with session timing - while 8:00-9:00 AM GMT is standard, some pairs may show improved performance with alternative hourly windows (e.g., 7:00-8:00 AM or 9:00-10:00 AM)
3. Adjust Stop Loss distances, Risk/Reward ratios, and Retest distances
4. Monitor win rate over 30+ day periods using the performance HUD
5. Only proceed with live alerts once consistent 60%+ win rates are achieved
6. Create separate optimized chart setups for each profitable pair/timeframe combination
### Timeframe Specifications
This indicator is specifically designed and tested for:
- **1-minute charts**: Optimal for capturing immediate institutional reactions
- **5-minute charts**: Balanced approach between noise reduction and opportunity frequency
Higher timeframes generally produce inferior results due to increased noise and reduced institutional edge during the London session window.
## Settings Configuration
### Session Timing
- **London Open/Close Hours**: Adjust for your chart's timezone
- **Rectangle End Time**: Set to 4:30 PM to stop signals before NY session close
- **Timezone Offset**: Ensure accurate London session capture
### Entry Parameters
- **Retest Distance**: 3-8 pips depending on pair volatility
- **Stop Loss Pips**: Separate settings for breakouts (10-15 pips) and retests (8-12 pips)
- **Risk/Reward Ratios**: Independent ratios for different entry types
### PineConnector Setup
- **License ID**: Your PineConnector license key
- **Symbol Override**: MT4/MT5 symbol names if different from TradingView
- **Risk Percentage**: Position size as percentage of account balance
- **Prefix/Comment**: Organize trades in terminal
## Manual Trading Limitations
Without PineConnector automation, traders face significant practical challenges:
**Settings Management**: Each currency pair requires different optimized parameters. Switching between charts means manually adjusting multiple settings each time, creating potential for errors and missed opportunities.
**Timing Sensitivity**: London Open signals can occur rapidly during high-volatility periods. Manual execution may result in slippage or missed entries.
**Multi-Pair Monitoring**: Tracking 4-11 currency pairs simultaneously while manually adjusting settings for each switch becomes impractical for most traders.
**Parameter Consistency**: Risk of using suboptimal settings when quickly switching between pairs, potentially compromising the careful optimization work.
## Recommended Workflow
1. **Historical Testing**: Use win rate HUD to identify profitable pairs and optimal parameters
2. **Demo Automation**: Test PineConnector alerts on demo accounts with optimized settings
3. **Live Implementation**: Deploy alerts only on proven profitable pair/timeframe combinations
4. **Ongoing Monitoring**: Regular review of performance metrics to maintain edge
## Risk Disclaimer
This indicator provides analysis tools and automation capabilities but does not guarantee profitable trading outcomes. Past performance does not predict future results. Users should thoroughly backtest and demo trade before risking live capital. The London session strategy works best during specific market conditions and may underperform during low volatility or unusual market environments.
## Support Requirements
Successful implementation requires:
- Basic understanding of London session market dynamics
- PineConnector subscription for automation features
- Patience for proper optimization process
- Realistic expectations about win rates and drawdown periods
This system is designed for serious traders willing to invest time in proper optimization and risk management rather than plug-and-play solutions.
