cd_cisd_market_CxHi Traders,
Overview:
Many traders follow market structure to identify the market direction and seek trade opportunities in line with the trend.
However, markings derived from user-defined inputs can create different structures, depending on personal choices. For instance, choosing a pivot distance of 3 instead of 2 alters the structure, even though the chart remains the same. Ideally, the structure should remain consistent.
"Change in State Delivery" ( CISD ) is a widely accepted concept among traders and is considered a significant indicator of market direction based on the gain/loss of CISD levels.
In this indicator, CISD is selected as the primary criterion for marking market structure, eliminating the influence of user-dependent variations.
Here is a summary of the key logic and rules applied:
• When the price forms a new high/low, that level is only considered a pivot if a CISD has occurred.
• A bullish CISD is always followed by a bearish CISD, and vice versa.
• Pivot points form the internal structure.
• The internal structure is used to interpret the swing structure.
• Probabilities are derived from internal structure patterns.
________________________________________
Details:
How is CISD determined?
As is commonly known:
• When price makes a new high, the opening level of the first candle in the consecutive bullish candle sequence is marked.
• When price makes a new low, the opening of the first candle in the consecutive bearish sequence is marked.
• If there’s only one candle in the sequence, its opening level is used.
In a bullish market, losing a bearish CISD level (i.e., a close below it) or in a bearish market, gaining a bullish CISD level (i.e., a close above it) is interpreted as a potential shift in buyer-seller dominance and a possible market reversal.
________________________________________
How are internal (pivot) levels determined?
• When price closes below a bearish CISD level, the highest candle's high becomes a pivot high (PH).
• When price closes above a bullish CISD level, the lowest candle's low becomes a pivot low (PL).
• If the new PH is above the previous PH, it’s labeled as HH (Higher High); otherwise, LH (Lower High).
• If the new PL is below the previous PL, it’s labeled as LL (Lower Low); otherwise, HL (Higher Low).
________________________________________
Internal Market Structure:
• A series of HHs indicates a bullish internal structure.
• A series of LLs indicates a bearish internal structure.
________________________________________
Swing (Main) Market Structure:
Using internal pivots and previous swing levels, the main market structure is derived.
• A new swing high (SH) requires the price to move above the previous SH.
• A new swing low (SL) requires the price to move below the previous SL.
________________________________________
Probability Calculation:
Pivot levels forming the internal structure are coded as five-element sequences.
There are 64 possible combinations of such sequences made from consecutive PH and PL values.
Each pattern’s frequency from its starting candle is tracked.
To make it more understandable:
For example, after the four-sequence “HH, LL, LH,HL”, either HH or LH might follow.
The table shows the statistical likelihood of both possible outcomes for the most recent four-element sequence on the chart.
________________________________________
How reliable is it?
To assess reliability, results are calculated from the beginning using:
Success Rate (Suc. Rt) = Number of Correct Predictions / Total Predictions
This value is added to the table for reference.
It’s important to note that no statistical outcome guarantees certainty—every result offers a different interpretation. What truly matters is to avoid getting stopped out 😊.

Menu Options:
Show/hide preferences and color selections can be customized via the indicator menu.

What’s Coming in Future Versions?
Features such as FVG (Fair Value Gaps) between swing levels, volume imbalances, order blocks / mitigation blocks, Fibonacci levels, and relevant trade suggestions will be added.

This is a BETA version that I believe will help simplify your market reading. I’d be happy to hear your feedback and suggestions.
Cheerful Trading!

Langlands-Operadic Möbius Vortex (LOMV)Langlands-Operadic Möbius Vortex (LOMV)
Where Pure Mathematics Meets Market Reality
A Revolutionary Synthesis of Number Theory, Category Theory, and Market Dynamics
🎓 THEORETICAL FOUNDATION
The Langlands-Operadic Möbius Vortex represents a groundbreaking fusion of three profound mathematical frameworks that have never before been combined for market analysis:
The Langlands Program: Harmonic Analysis in Markets
Developed by Robert Langlands (Fields Medal recipient), the Langlands Program creates bridges between number theory, algebraic geometry, and harmonic analysis. In our indicator:
L-Function Implementation:
- Utilizes the Möbius function μ(n) for weighted price analysis
- Applies Riemann zeta function convergence principles
- Calculates quantum harmonic resonance between -2 and +2
- Measures deep mathematical patterns invisible to traditional analysis
The L-Function core calculation employs:
L_sum = Σ(return_val × μ(n) × n^(-s))
Where s is the critical strip parameter (0.5-2.5), controlling mathematical precision and signal smoothness.
Operadic Composition Theory: Multi-Strategy Democracy
Category theory and operads provide the mathematical framework for composing multiple trading strategies into a unified signal. This isn't simple averaging - it's mathematical composition using:
Strategy Composition Arity (2-5 strategies):
- Momentum analysis via RSI transformation
- Mean reversion through Bollinger Band mathematics
- Order Flow Polarity Index (revolutionary T3-smoothed volume analysis)
- Trend detection using Directional Movement
- Higher timeframe momentum confirmation
Agreement Threshold System: Democratic voting where strategies must reach consensus before signal generation. This prevents false signals during market uncertainty.
Möbius Function: Number Theory in Action
The Möbius function μ(n) forms the mathematical backbone:
- μ(n) = 1 if n is a square-free positive integer with even number of prime factors
- μ(n) = -1 if n is a square-free positive integer with odd number of prime factors
- μ(n) = 0 if n has a squared prime factor
This creates oscillating weights that reveal hidden market periodicities and harmonic structures.

Strong/Weak Candle FinderStrong/Weak Candle Finder (SWCF)
Overview:
The Strong/Weak Candle Finder (SWCF) is a versatile TradingView indicator designed to help traders identify statistically significant candles based on their size relative to recent historical price action. By analyzing a lookback period, the indicator dynamically calculates a threshold to classify candles as either "strong" (larger than the threshold) or "weak" (smaller than the threshold), providing visual cues directly on your chart.
This tool can be invaluable for traders looking to:
Spot potential momentum breakouts or high volatility (Strong Candles).
Identify periods of consolidation or low volatility (Weak Candles).
Gauge shifts in market sentiment based on candle body or range dynamics.
How It Works:
Candle Size Calculation: You choose how candle size is measured from four methods:
High - Low: The full range of the candle.
High - Close: The distance from the high to the close.
Open - Close: The size of the candle body.
Low - Open: The distance from the low to the open.
Historical Analysis: The indicator looks back over a user-defined LookBack Period to collect candle sizes.
Grouping & Precision: To smooth the distribution, candle sizes are grouped based on the Group Precision Size. This parameter divides the observed range of candle sizes into a set number of "bins," and individual candle sizes are rounded to the nearest representative value of these bins.
Percentile Threshold: A dynamic Outlier Pip Value is calculated based on the Outlier Percentile you set.
If Display Mode is "Strong Candles," this threshold represents the Nth percentile of the largest candle sizes (e.g., the 80th percentile if Outlier Percentile is 20%). Candles larger than this are marked as "Strong."
If Display Mode is "Weak Candles," this threshold represents the Nth percentile of the smallest candle sizes (e.g., the 20th percentile). Candles smaller than this are marked as "Weak."
Visual Markers: When a current candle meets the criteria (strong or weak based on your display mode), a configurable shape is plotted above (for strong) or below (for weak) the candle.
Resampling: The historical distribution and outlier threshold are recalculated every Resample Period (number of bars) to adapt to changing market conditions.
Key Features:
Dynamic Thresholds: Adapts to market volatility instead of using fixed pip values.
Customizable Candle Definition: Choose from four methods to define what "candle size" means to your strategy.
Flexible Display Modes: Focus on either identifying exceptionally strong candles or unusually weak ones.
Adjustable Sensitivity: Fine-tune the rarity of signals with Outlier Percentile and Group Precision Size.
Visual Chart Markers: Clear, customizable shapes (arrow, circle, etc.) for easy identification.
Periodic Recalculation: Ensures the indicator remains relevant as market dynamics evolve.
Parameters:
Display Mode:
Strong Candles: Highlights candles larger than the upper percentile threshold.
Weak Candles: Highlights candles smaller than the lower percentile threshold.
Resample Period (Candles): How often (in bars) to recalculate the historical distribution and outlier threshold.
LookBack Period (Candles): The number of past candles to analyze for the historical distribution. (Note: Plots will only begin after this many bars have loaded on the chart).
Group Precision Size: Number of groups to divide the candle size range into for rounding historical sizes. Higher values mean finer precision (less rounding).
Outlier Percentile (%): The percentile used to define the threshold for strong/weak candles.
Candle Size Method: (High-Low, High-Close, Open-Close, Low-Open).
Visuals:
Strong Shape: Choose the icon style for strong candles.
Weak Shape: Choose the icon style for weak candles.
Shape Size: Adjust the size of the plotted icons.
How to Use:
Strong Candles:
May indicate increased momentum, potential breakout confirmations, or high conviction moves.
Consider using in trending markets or as a filter for entry signals.
Weak Candles:
May signal market indecision, low volatility, consolidation phases, or potential exhaustion of a prior move.
Can be useful for identifying range-bound conditions or periods to be cautious.
Experimentation: Adjust the LookBack Period, Outlier Percentile, and Group Precision Size to match your trading style and the characteristics of the asset you are trading. What constitutes "strong" or "weak" can vary significantly.
Confirmation Tool: Use in conjunction with other indicators (e.g., moving averages, RSI, volume) for more robust trading decisions.
Important Notes:
The indicator requires sufficient historical data (LookBack Period) to initialize. You may not see plots on the chart immediately if there aren't enough bars loaded.
Like all indicators, the SWCF is not a standalone trading system and should not be used as the sole basis for financial decisions.
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always use appropriate risk management.
We hope you find the Strong/Weak Candle Finder a valuable addition to your trading toolkit!

Breakout Swing High LowThis open-source indicator identifies swing high and swing low breakouts, providing clear visual signals for potential trend entries. It is designed for traders who use price action to spot breakout opportunities in trending markets.
How It Works
Swing Detection: The indicator uses a user-defined lookback period (default: 4 candles) to identify swing highs (peaks) and swing lows (troughs). A swing high is confirmed when a candle's high is higher than the surrounding candles, and a swing low is confirmed when a candle's low is lower.
Breakout Signals: A green triangle below the candle signals a breakout above the most recent swing high, indicating a potential buy opportunity. A red triangle above the candle signals a breakout below the most recent swing low, indicating a potential sell opportunity. Each swing level triggers only one breakout signal to avoid clutter.
Visualization: Swing high levels are drawn as green dashed lines, and swing low levels as red dashed lines, extending 15 candles for clarity. Breakout signals are marked with small triangles.
How to Use
Apply the Indicator: Add the indicator to your TradingView chart.
Adjust Lookback: Set the "Lookback Candles" input (default: 4) to control the sensitivity of swing detection. Smaller values detect shorter-term swings, while larger values identify more significant levels.
Interpret Signals:
Green triangle (below candle): Consider a buy opportunity when price breaks above a swing high.
Red triangle (above candle): Consider a sell opportunity when price breaks below a swing low.
Combine with Other Tools: Use in conjunction with trend indicators (e.g., 50-period EMA) or support/resistance levels to filter signals in trending markets.
Timeframes: Works best on higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H) in trending markets to avoid false breakouts in sideways conditions.
Dynamic Liquidity Depth [BigBeluga]
Dynamic Liquidity Depth
A liquidity mapping engine that reveals hidden zones of market vulnerability. This tool simulates where potential large concentrations of stop-losses may exist — above recent highs (sell-side) and below recent lows (buy-side) — by analyzing real price behavior and directional volume. The result is a dynamic two-sided volume profile that highlights where price is most likely to gravitate during liquidation events, reversals, or engineered stop hunts.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Two-Sided Liquidity Profiles:
Plots two separate profiles on the chart — one above price for potential sell-side liquidity , and one below price for potential buy-side liquidity . Each profile reflects the volume distribution across binned zones derived from historical highs and lows.
Real Stop Zone Simulation:
Each profile is offset from the current high or low using an ATR-based buffer. This simulates where traders might cluster their stop-losses above swing highs (short stops) or below swing lows (long stops).
Directional Volume Analysis:
Buy-side volume is accumulated only from bullish candles (close > open), while sell-side volume is accumulated only from bearish candles (close < open). This directional filtering enhances accuracy by capturing genuine pressure zones.
Dynamic Volume Heatmap:
Each liquidity bin is rendered as a horizontal box with a color gradient based on volume intensity:
- Low activity bins are shaded lightly.
- High-volume zones appear more vividly in red (sell) or lime (buy).
- The maximum volume bin in each profile is emphasized with a brighter fill and a volume label.
Extended POC Zones:
The Point of Control (PoC) — the bin with the most volume — is extended backwards across the entire lookback period to mark critical resistance (sell-side) or support (buy-side) levels.
Total Volume Summary Labels:
At the center of each profile, a summary label displays Total Buy Liquidity and Total Sell Liquidity volume.
This metric helps assess directional imbalance — when buy liquidity is dominant, the market may favor upward continuation, and vice versa.
Customizable Profile Granularity:
You can fine-tune both Resolution (Bins) and Offset Distance to adjust how far profiles are displaced from price and how many levels are calculated within the ATR range.
🔵 HOW IT WORKS
The indicator calculates an ATR-based buffer above highs and below lows to define the top and bottom of the liquidity zones.
Using a user-defined lookback period, it scans historical candles and divides the buffered zones into bins.
Each bin checks if bullish (or bearish) candles pass through it based on price wicks and body.
Volume from valid candles is summed into the corresponding bin.
When volume exists in a bin, a horizontal box is drawn with a width scaled by relative volume strength.
The bin with the highest volume is highlighted and optionally extended backward as a zone of importance.
Total buy/sell liquidity is displayed with a summary label at the side of the profile.
🔵 USAGE/b]
Identify Stop Hunt Zones: High-volume clusters near swing highs/lows are likely liquidation zones targeted during fakeouts.
Fade or Follow Reactions: Price hitting a high-volume bin may reverse (fade opportunity) or break with strength (confirmation breakout).
Layer with Other Tools: Combine with market structure, order blocks, or trend filters to validate entries near liquidity.
Adjust Offset for Sensitivity: Use higher offset to simulate wider stop placement; use lower for tighter scalping zones.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Dynamic Liquidity Depth transforms raw price and volume into a spatial map of liquidity. By revealing areas where stop orders are likely hidden, it gives traders insight into price manipulation zones, potential reversal levels, and breakout traps. Whether you're hunting for traps or trading with the flow, this tool equips you to navigate liquidity with precision.
Smart Range DetectorSmart Range Detector
What It Does
This indicator automatically detects and validates significant trading ranges using pivot point analysis combined with logarithmic fibonacci relationships. It operates by identifying specific pivot patterns (High-Low-High and Low-High-Low) that meet fibonacci validation criteria to filter out noise and highlight only the most reliable trading ranges. Each range is continuously monitored for potential mitigation (breakout) events.
Key Features
Identifies both High-Low-High and Low-High-Low range patterns
Validates each range using logarithmic fibonacci relationships (more accurate than linear fibs)
Detects range mitigations (breakouts) and visually differentiates them
Shows fibonacci levels within ranges (25%, 50%, 75%) for potential reversal points
Visualizes extension levels beyond ranges for breakout targets
Analyzes volume profile with customizable price divisions (default: 60)
Displays Point of Control (POC) and Value Area for traded volume analysis
Implements performance optimization with configurable range limits
Includes user-adjustable safety checks to prevent Pine Script limitations
Offers fully customizable colors, line widths, and transparency settings
How To Use It
Identify Valid Ranges : The indicator automatically detects and highlights trading ranges that meet fibonacci validation criteria
Monitor Fibonacci Levels : Watch for price reactions at internal fib levels (25%, 50%, 75%) for potential reversal opportunities
Track Extension Targets : Use the extension lines as potential targets when price breaks out of a range
Analyze Volume Structure : Enable the volume profile mode to see where most volume was traded within mitigated ranges
Trade Range Boundaries : Look for reactions at range highs/lows combined with volume POC for higher probability entries
Manage Performance : Adjust the maximum displayed ranges and history bars settings for optimal chart performance
Settings Guide
Left/Right Bars Look Back : Controls how far back the indicator looks to identify pivot points (higher values find more ranges but may reduce sensitivity)
Max History Bars : Limits how far back in history the indicator will analyze (stays within Pine Script's 10,000 bar limitation)
Max Ranges to Display : Restricts the total number of ranges kept in memory for improved performance (1-50)
Volume Profile : When enabled, shows volume distribution analysis for mitigated ranges
Volume Profile Divisions : Controls the granularity of the volume analysis (higher values show more detail)
Display Options : Toggle visibility of range lines, fibonacci levels, extension lines, and volume analysis elements
Transparency & Color Settings : Fully customize the visual appearance of all indicator elements
Line Width Settings : Adjust the thickness of lines for better visibility on different timeframes
Technical Details
The indicator uses logarithmic fibonacci calculations for more accurate price relationships
Volume profile analysis creates 60 price divisions by default (adjustable) for detailed volume distribution
All timestamps are properly converted to work with Pine Script's bar limitations
Safety checks prevent "array index out of bounds" errors that plague many complex indicators
Time-based coordinates are used instead of bar indices to prevent "bar index too far" errors
This indicator works well on all timeframes and instruments, but performs best on 5-minute to daily charts. Perfect for swing traders, range traders, and breakout strategists.
What Makes It Different
Most range indicators simply draw boxes based on recent highs and lows. Smart Range Detector validates each potential range using proven fibonacci relationships to filter out noise. It then adds sophisticated volume analysis to help traders identify the most significant price levels within each range. The performance optimization features ensure smooth operation even on lower timeframes and extended history analysis.
1h Liquidity Swings Strategy with 1:2 RRLuxAlgo Liquidity Swings (Simulated):
Uses ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow to detect 1h swing highs (resistance) and swing lows (support).
The lookback parameter (default 5) controls swing point sensitivity.
Entry Logic:
Long: Uptrend, price crosses above 1h swing low (ta.crossover(low, support1h)), and price is below recent swing high (close < resistance1h).
Short: Downtrend, price crosses below 1h swing high (ta.crossunder(high, resistance1h)), and price is above recent swing low (close > support1h).
Take Profit (1:2 Risk-Reward):
Risk:
Long: risk = entryPrice - initialStopLoss.
Short: risk = initialStopLoss - entryPrice.
Take-profit price:
Long: takeProfitPrice = entryPrice + 2 * risk.
Short: takeProfitPrice = entryPrice - 2 * risk.
Set via strategy.exit’s limit parameter.
Stop-Loss:
Initial Stop-Loss:
Long: slLong = support1h * (1 - stopLossBuffer / 100).
Short: slShort = resistance1h * (1 + stopLossBuffer / 100).
Breakout Stop-Loss:
Long: close < support1h.
Short: close > resistance1h.
Managed via strategy.exit’s stop parameter.

OpeningRange (Trading_Tix)Purpose:
The indicator highlights the high, low, and middle (50%) price levels of a specified session's opening range. These levels can serve as key support and resistance zones for trading strategies. The indicator also offers options to extend these levels beyond the session into later timeframes, making it useful for tracking breakout or trend continuation setups.
Key Features:
1. Session Detection:
The indicator identifies a specific session period using the user-defined Session Time. It calculates the start time, high, and low prices during this period:
rangeTime: Defines the session time range (default: 5:00 PM to 2:59 AM).
extendTime: Defines the extended time range where lines/backgrounds can be prolonged.
2. Opening Range Calculation:
High (high_val) and Low (low_val)**:
Tracks the highest and lowest prices during the session.
Middle Line:
A midpoint is calculated by averaging high_val and low_val.
3. Visual Elements:
Horizontal Lines:
Drawn at the high, low, and middle levels.
Customizable in width and color.
Shaded Background Box:
Covers the range between high and low prices.
The box’s color and transparency can be adjusted.
Line and Box Extension:
Optionally extends these elements into the extended time range.
4. Customization:
Users have the flexibility to:
Toggle visibility of lines, middle line, and background box.
Adjust colors, line thickness, and style.
Enable or disable the extension of lines and backgrounds into the extended period.
How It Works:
Initialization:
The script initializes variables to store range data (startTime, high_val, low_val) and drawing objects (lines, boxes).
It detects whether the current bar falls within the session (inSession) or extended timeframe (inExtend).
Plotting:
During the session:
Deletes previous lines and boxes from prior sessions.
Draws new lines at the high, low, and middle levels.
Creates a background box covering the range, if enabled.
During the extended period:
Extends the session lines and box, if the user has opted for extensions.
Updates:
Continuously adjusts the high/low values and updates the lines as new price data arrives.
Use Cases:
This indicator can be valuable for traders who:
Use the opening range to identify potential breakout zones.
Trade based on price consolidation within the range.
Want a visual representation of key price levels to plan entries and exits.

Intraday Uncertainty [PhenLabs]📊 Intraday Uncertainty
Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
The Intraday Uncertainty indicator offers traders a visual representation of market certainty/uncertainty during trading sessions. By comparing each price bar’s range to the Average True Range (ATR), it provides an intuitive way to gauge market conviction through a color gradient system.
This tool helps traders identify periods of high certainty (potentially trending markets) versus high uncertainty (potentially choppy or volatile markets) without complex calculations or multiple indicators. The color-coded bars create an immediate visual cue to support decision-making in varying market conditions.
🚀 Points of Innovation
Automated range-to-ATR ratio calculation that adapts to changing market volatility
Dynamic color gradient system that visually distinguishes between certain and uncertain price action
Customizable gradient clamping to fine-tune sensitivity to market conditions
Integrated dashboard that provides clear interpretation guidance
Position-flexible legend that accommodates different chart layouts
Highly optimized for performance with minimal calculation overhead
🔧 Core Components
ATR Calculation: Measures market volatility using a configurable lookback period
Range-to-ATR Ratio: Compares current bar’s high-low range against average volatility
Gradient Mapping System: Converts numerical uncertainty values into an intuitive color scale
Dashboard Legend: Provides clear interpretation guidance with customizable positioning
🔥 Key Features
Bar Coloring: Instantly identifies market certainty levels through intuitive color gradients
Customizable ATR Period: Adjust sensitivity to historical volatility based on trading style

✅ Best Use Cases
Identifying potential trend shifts when certainty levels change dramatically
Confirming trend strength through consistent certainty levels
Detecting choppy/sideways markets with persistent high uncertainty
Filtering trading signals from other indicators based on certainty levels
Gauging market conviction behind price breakouts or pullbacks
Optimizing entry/exit timing based on certainty/uncertainty transitions
⚠️ Limitations
Does not predict future price direction, only measures current bar certainty
May provide false signals during news events or unexpected volatility spikes
Requires context within the broader market environment for optimal interpretation
Color interpretation is relative rather than absolute across different securities
ATR-based calculation means sensitivity varies across different timeframes
💡 What Makes This Unique
Simplicity: Single visual indicator that doesn’t require multiple technical tools
Adaptability: Automatically adjusts to changing market volatility conditions
Contextual Analysis: Provides market conviction context beyond just price movement
Intuitive Design: Color-based system that requires minimal learning curve
Efficiency: Lightweight calculation that doesn’t impact chart performance
🔬 How It Works
1. ATR Calculation:
Calculates the Average True Range using the specified period
Establishes a baseline for normal market volatility
2. Range Analysis:
Measures each bar’s high-low range
Compares this range to the current ATR value to create a ratio
3. Gradient Mapping:
Converts the Range/ATR ratio to a normalized value between 0 and 1
Maps this value onto a color gradient between the start and end colors
Applies the resulting color to the price bar
4. Dashboard Creation:
Constructs an information panel on the last visible bar
Populates it with color samples and interpretation guidance
💡 Note:
This indicator works best when used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools rather than in isolation. The certainty/uncertainty measure provides context for your trading decisions but should not be the sole basis for entries and exits. Consider using higher certainty periods for trend-following strategies and exercise caution during periods of high uncertainty.
D3m4h GIFVGDescription
D3m4h GIFVG is an indicator designed to automatically detect market imbalances—often referred to as FVGs (Fair Value Gaps)—and potential pivot-based shifts in market structure. It offers a dynamic approach to visualizing supply/demand inefficiencies and pivot-based trend changes. Key features include:
1. Pivot-Based Bullish/Bearish Detection
The indicator identifies higher-high/lower-low pivot logic as well as “outside bar” pivots.
It tracks when the market transitions from bullish to bearish ranges, or vice versa, by using multiple checks:
Pivot low/high detection
Break-of-structure (when price crosses the last pivot)
Opposing FVG detection to confirm an intraday pivot shift
2. FVG (Fair Value Gap) Detection
The script automatically scans for bullish or bearish FVG conditions:
Bullish FVG: Candle at position (bar_index - 2) has a high below the current candle’s low.
Bearish FVG: Candle at position (bar_index - 2) has a low above the current candle’s high.
When it detects an FVG, it draws a box on the chart to highlight the price gap (yellow boxes by default).
3. Pivot Range FVG
If an FVG forms while the market is in a bullish pivot range, the script can paint a special “blue” FVG to underscore its significance. The same logic applies if a newly formed FVG appears in a bearish pivot range.
4. Filled Gap Cleanup
You can optionally hide standard FVG boxes once they’re filled. For example, if the candle’s body (or candle range) covers that gap, the box is removed to keep your chart clean.
5. Pivot-Range FVG “Raided” Cleanup
If the pivot-based FVG is later filled from the opposing direction, it turns green and can optionally remove itself after a set number of bars.
6. Informative Table
A small table on the chart optionally displays whether or not the pivot-based FVG has been “raided”. You can toggle this table on/off in the settings.
How It Works
1. Pivot Shifts
The script tracks the last pivot high/low using a combination of candle-based pivot detection and break-of-structure checks (when price crosses the last pivot in the opposite direction).
When a shift is detected, the pivot range ID increments—this helps the script know when to remove old pivot-based FVGs or draw new ones.
2. FVG Formation
Each new bar checks if a bullish or bearish FVG formed (comparing the high of bar two bars ago to the current low, or the low of bar two bars ago to the current high).
If one is found, a box is drawn to highlight the imbalance. Its color and extension depend on script settings.
3. Imbalance or Pivot FVG
Standard imbalance boxes appear in yellow.
If the new imbalance coincides with a bullish or bearish pivot range, a special “pivot imbalance” box in blue is drawn.
3. Hide Filled
If a newly formed candle’s body fully covers the FVG, the box is considered filled. If Hide Filled Gaps is enabled, the box is deleted once it’s covered.
4. Raid Status
For the pivot-based (blue) FVG, once price invalidates it from the opposite side, it changes color to green and gets removed after a user-defined number of bars.
How to Use
1. Look for FVGs
Observe yellow boxes to identify potential intraday imbalances. Watch for price returning to fill these zones.
If you see a “blue” box, it signifies a pivot-based FVG in line with a recognized shift in structure—arguably a higher-probability zone.
2. “Hide Filled Gaps”
Turn this on if you only want to see currently active or partially filled imbalances. The script cleans up old, fully covered boxes to keep your chart neat.
3. Pivot Shifts
Note the script’s internal pivot logic. Each new pivot re-defines bullish or bearish states. Use these states to gauge the short-term trend shifts.
4. Toggle the Table
You can show or hide the chart table by enabling/disabling “Show Table” from the inputs. This table indicates if the pivot-based “GIFVG” has been “raided” or not.
5. Extend Count
Adjust the extendCount in the code if you want FVG boxes to extend further or shorter in time.
Underlying Concepts
Fair Value Gaps
Market inefficiencies that occur when price jumps, leaving a “gap” from the candle 2 bars ago to the current candle. They can act like mini supply/demand zones where price may revisit for balance.
Pivot Ranges
The script tries to maintain an internal sense of whether the market is in a bullish or bearish pivot range. When it sees a contrary FVG or break-of-structure, it flips the pivot state.
Outside Bars
A candle that has both a higher high and a lower low than the previous bar. The script uses these to mark significant pivot shifts.
By combining pivot-based logic with FVG detection, the D3m4h GIFVG indicator helps highlight potential areas of liquidity or unfilled value. Traders can use these zones to plan entries/exits or to confirm short-term trend shifts.

02 SMC + BB Breakout (Improved)This strategy combines Smart Money Concepts (SMC) with Bollinger Band breakouts to identify potential trading opportunities. SMC focuses on identifying key price levels and market structure shifts, while Bollinger Bands help pinpoint overbought/oversold conditions and potential breakout points. The strategy also incorporates higher timeframe trend confirmation to filter out trades that go against the prevailing trend.
Key Components:
Bollinger Bands:
Calculated using a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the closing price and a standard deviation multiplier.
The strategy uses the upper and lower bands to identify potential breakout points.
The SMA (basis) acts as a centerline and potential support/resistance level.
The fill between the upper and lower bands can be toggled by the user.
Higher Timeframe Trend Confirmation:
The strategy allows for optional confirmation of the current trend using a higher timeframe (e.g., daily).
It calculates the SMA of the higher timeframe's closing prices.
A bullish trend is confirmed if the higher timeframe's closing price is above its SMA.
This helps filter out trades that go against the prevailing long-term trend.
Smart Money Concepts (SMC):
Order Blocks:
Simplified as recent price clusters, identified by the highest high and lowest low over a specified lookback period.
These levels are considered potential areas of support or resistance.
Liquidity Zones (Swing Highs/Lows):
Identified by recent swing highs and lows, indicating areas where liquidity may be present.
The Swing highs and lows are calculated based on user defined lookback periods.
Market Structure Shift (MSS):
Identifies potential changes in market structure.
A bullish MSS occurs when the closing price breaks above a previous swing high.
A bearish MSS occurs when the closing price breaks below a previous swing low.
The swing high and low values used for the MSS are calculated based on the user defined swing length.
Entry Conditions:
Long Entry:
The closing price crosses above the upper Bollinger Band.
If higher timeframe confirmation is enabled, the higher timeframe trend must be bullish.
A bullish MSS must have occurred.
Short Entry:
The closing price crosses below the lower Bollinger Band.
If higher timeframe confirmation is enabled, the higher timeframe trend must be bearish.
A bearish MSS must have occurred.
Exit Conditions:
Long Exit:
The closing price crosses below the Bollinger Band basis.
Or the Closing price falls below 99% of the order block low.
Short Exit:
The closing price crosses above the Bollinger Band basis.
Or the closing price rises above 101% of the order block high.
Position Sizing:
The strategy calculates the position size based on a fixed percentage (5%) of the strategy's equity.
This helps manage risk by limiting the potential loss per trade.
Visualizations:
Bollinger Bands (upper, lower, and basis) are plotted on the chart.
SMC elements (order blocks, swing highs/lows) are plotted as lines, with user-adjustable visibility.
Entry and exit signals are plotted as shapes on the chart.
The Bollinger band fill opacity is adjustable by the user.
Trading Logic:
The strategy aims to capitalize on Bollinger Band breakouts that are confirmed by SMC signals and higher timeframe trend. It looks for breakouts that align with potential market structure shifts and key price levels (order blocks, swing highs/lows). The higher timeframe filter helps avoid trades that go against the overall trend.
In essence, the strategy attempts to identify high-probability breakout trades by combining momentum (Bollinger Bands) with structural analysis (SMC) and trend confirmation.
Key User-Adjustable Parameters:
Bollinger Bands Length
Standard Deviation Multiplier
Higher Timeframe
Higher Timeframe Confirmation (on/off)
SMC Elements Visibility (on/off)
Order block lookback length.
Swing lookback length.
Bollinger band fill opacity.

2. Dynamic Updates:
- The indicator automatically updates the candles as new data arrives, allowing you to track market changes in real time.
3. Customizable Number of Candles:
- The user can choose how many candles to display for each timeframe (default is 4 candles). This allows the indicator to be adapted to individual needs.
4. Range Display (High/Low):
- The indicator can show High and Low levels for each timeframe, helping to identify key support and resistance levels.
- It is also possible to display the Mid level (average between High and Low), which can be useful for identifying consolidation zones.
5. Data Table:
- The indicator supports displaying a table with key levels (High, Low, Mid) for each timeframe. The table can be placed in any corner of the chart, and its size and text/background colors are customizable.
6. Flexible Appearance Settings:
- The user can customize the colors of the candles, their wicks, High/Low/Mid levels, as well as the placement of the columns on the chart.
How the Indicator Helps in Trading:
- Multi-Timeframe Analysis: The indicator allows you to analyze multiple timeframes simultaneously, helping to better understand the overall trend and find entry points. For example, if the trend is bullish on the daily timeframe and there is a correction on the hourly timeframe, this could be a good opportunity to buy.
- Identifying Key Levels: Displaying High, Low, and Mid levels helps quickly identify support and resistance zones, which is useful for setting stop-loss and take-profit levels.
- Time-Saving: The indicator eliminates the need to switch between timeframes, speeding up the analysis and decision-making process.
- Visual Clarity: Visualizing candles from different timeframes on a single chart makes analysis more convenient and intuitive.
Example Use Cases:
1. Trend Trading: If a clear uptrend is visible on the daily timeframe and a correction is occurring on the hourly timeframe, you can look for buy opportunities near support levels.
2. Range Trading: If the price is moving sideways across all timeframes, you can use High and Low levels to trade from the boundaries of the range.
3. Identifying Reversal Points: If the price approaches a key resistance level on the higher timeframe and a bearish candle forms on the lower timeframe, this could be a signal to sell.
Conclusion:
This indicator is a powerful tool for traders who use multi-timeframe analysis. It helps quickly assess market conditions, identify key levels, and make informed trading decisions. Thanks to its flexible settings, the indicator can be adapted to any trading style and visualization preferences.

[SHORT ONLY] 10 Bar Low Pullback█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "10 Bar Low Pullback" strategy is a contrarian short trading system designed to capture pullbacks after a new 10‐bar low is made. it identifies a potential short opportunity when the current bar’s low breaks below the lowest low of the previous 10 bars, provided that the bar exhibits strong internal momentum as measured by its IBS value. An optional trend filter further refines entries by requiring that the close is below a 200-period EMA.
█ WHAT IS INTERNAL BAR STRENGTH (IBS)?
Internal Bar Strength (IBS) measures where the closing price falls within the high-low range of a bar. It is calculated as:
ibs = (close - low) / (high - low)
- Low IBS (≤ 0.2): Indicates the close is near the bar's low, suggesting oversold conditions.
- High IBS (≥ 0.8): Indicates the close is near the bar's high, suggesting overbought conditions.
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. SHORT ENTRY
A Short Signal is triggered when:
The current bar’s low is below the lowest low of the past X bars (default: 10).
The bar’s IBS is greater than the specified threshold (default: 0.85).
The signal occurs within the defined trading window (between Start Time and End Time).
If the EMA Filter is enabled, the close must be below the 200-period EMA.
2. EXIT CONDITION
An exit Signal is generated when the current close falls below the previous bar’s low (close < low ), indicating a potential bearish reversal and prompting the strategy to close its short position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
Lookback Period: Defines the number of bars (default is 10) over which the lowest low is calculated.
IBS Threshold: Sets the minimum required IBS value (default is 0.85) to qualify as a pullback.
Trading Window: Trades are only executed between the user-defined Start Time and End Time.
EMA Filter (Optional): When enabled, short entries are only considered if the current close is below the 200-period EMA, with the EMA period being adjustable (default is 200).
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
Designed for shorting opportunities, this strategy aims to capture pullbacks following an aggressive 10-bar low break.
It leverages a combination of a lookback low and IBS measurement to identify overextended bullish moves that may revert.
The optional EMA filter helps confirm a bearish market environment by ensuring the price remains under the trend line.
Suitable for use on various assets, including stocks and ETFs, on daily or similar timeframes.
Backtesting and parameter optimization are recommended to tailor the strategy to specific market conditions.

JJ Highlight Time Ranges with First 5 Minutes and LabelsTo effectively use this Pine Script as a day trader , here’s how the various elements can help you manage trades, track time sessions, and monitor price movements:
Key Components for a Day Trader:
1. First 5-Minute Highlight:
- Purpose: Day traders often rely on the first 5 minutes of the trading session to gauge market sentiment, watch for opening price gaps, or plan entries. This script draws a horizontal line at the high or low of the first 5 minutes, which can act as a key level for the rest of the day.
- How to Use: If the price breaks above or below the first 5-minute line, it can signal momentum. You might enter a long position if the price breaks above the first 5-minute high or a short if it breaks below the first 5-minute low.
2. Session Time Highlights:
- Morning Session (9:15–10:30 AM): The market often shows its strongest price action during the first hour of trading. This session is highlighted in yellow. You can use this highlight to focus on the most volatile period, as this is when large institutional moves tend to occur.
- Afternoon Session (12:30–2:55 PM): The blue highlight helps you track the mid-afternoon session, where liquidity may decrease, and price action can sometimes be choppier. Day traders should be more cautious during this period.
- How to Use: By highlighting these key times, you can:
- Focus on key breakouts during the morning session.
- Be more conservative in your trades during the afternoon, as market volatility may drop.
3. Dynamic Labels:
- Top/Bottom Positioning: The script places labels dynamically based on the selected position (Top or Bottom). This allows you to quickly glance at the session's start and identify where you are in terms of time.
- How to Use: Use these labels to remind yourself when major time segments (morning or afternoon) begin. You can adjust your trading strategy depending on the session, e.g., being more aggressive in the morning and more cautious in the afternoon.
Trading Strategy Suggestions:
1. Momentum Trades:
- After the first 5 minutes, use the high/low of that period to set up breakout trades.
- Long Entry: If the price breaks the high of the first 5 minutes (especially if there's a strong trend).
- Short Entry: If the price breaks the low of the first 5 minutes, signaling a potential downtrend.
2. Session-Based Strategy:
- Morning Session (9:15–10:30 AM):
- Look for strong breakout patterns such as support/resistance levels, moving average crossovers, or candlestick patterns (like engulfing candles or pin bars).
- This is a high liquidity period, making it ideal for executing quick trades.
- Afternoon Session (12:30–2:55 PM):
- The market tends to consolidate or show less volatility. Scalping and mean-reversion strategies work better here.
- Avoid chasing big moves unless you see a clear breakout in either direction.
3. Support and Resistance:
- The first 5-minute high/low often acts as a key support or resistance level for the rest of the day. If the price holds above or below this level, it’s an indication of trend continuation.
4. Breakout Confirmation:
- Look for breakouts from the highlighted session time ranges (e.g., 9:15 AM–10:30 AM or 12:30 PM–2:55 PM).
- If a breakout happens during a key time window, combine that with other technical indicators like volume spikes , RSI , or MACD for confirmation.
---
Example Day Trader Usage:
1. First 5 Minutes Strategy: After the market opens at 9:15 AM, watch the price action for the first 5 minutes. The high and low of these 5 minutes are critical levels. If the price breaks above the high of the first 5 minutes, it might indicate a strong bullish trend for the day. Conversely, breaking below the low may suggest bearish movement.
2. Morning Session: After the first 5 minutes, focus on the **9:15 AM–10:30 AM** window. During this time, look for breakout setups at key support/resistance levels, especially when paired with high volume or momentum indicators. This is when many institutions make large trades, so price action tends to be more volatile and predictable.
3. Afternoon Session: From 12:30 PM–2:55 PM, the market might experience lower volatility, making it ideal for scalping or range-bound strategies. You could look for reversals or fading strategies if the market becomes too quiet.
Conclusion:
As a day trader, you can use this script to:
- Track and react to key price levels during the first 5 minutes.
- Focus on high volatility in the morning session (9:15–10:30 AM) and **be cautious** during the afternoon.
- Use session-based timing to adjust your strategies based on the time of day.
Adaptive Volatility-Scaled Oscillator [AVSO] (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Adaptive Volatility-Scaled Oscillator (AVSO) is a dynamic trading indicator that measures and visualizes volatility-adjusted market behavior. By scaling various metrics (such as volume, price changes, standard deviation, ATR, and Yang-Zhang volatility) and applying adaptive smoothing, AVSO helps traders identify market conditions where volatility deviates significantly from the norm.
This indicator uses standardized scaling (Z-Score logic) to highlight periods of abnormally high or low volatility relative to recent history. With gradient coloring and clear volatility zones, AVSO provides a visually intuitive way to analyze market volatility and adapt trading strategies accordingly.
█ How It Works
⚪ Scaling Metrics: The indicator scales user-selected metrics (e.g., volume, ATR, standard deviation) relative to the market and price, providing a standardized volatility measure.
⚪ Z-Score Standardization: The scaled metric is normalized using a Z-Score to measure how far current volatility deviates from its recent mean.
Positive Z-Score: Above-average volatility.
Negative Z-Score: Below-average volatility.
⚪ Adaptive Smoothing: An Adaptive EMA smooths the Z-Score, dynamically adjusting its length based on the strength of the volatility. Stronger deviations result in shorter smoothing, increasing responsiveness.
█ Unique Feature: Yang-Zhang Volatility
The Yang-Zhang volatility estimator sets this indicator apart by providing a more robust and accurate measure of volatility compared to traditional methods like ATR or standard deviation.
⚪ What Makes Yang-Zhang Volatility Unique?
Comprehensive Calculation: It combines overnight price gaps (log returns from the previous close to the current open) and intraday price movements (high, low, and close).
Accurate for Gapped Markets: Traditional volatility measures can misrepresent price movement when significant gaps occur between sessions. Yang-Zhang accounts for these gaps, making it highly reliable for assets prone to overnight price jumps, such as stocks, cryptocurrencies, and futures.
Adaptable to Real Market Conditions : By including both close-to-open returns and intraday volatility, it provides a balanced and adaptive measure that captures the full volatility picture.
⚪ Why This Matters to Traders
Better Volatility Insights: Yang-Zhang offers a clearer view of true market volatility, especially in markets with price gaps or uneven trading sessions.
Improved Trade Timing: By identifying volatility spikes and calm periods more effectively, traders can time their entries and exits with greater confidence.
█ How to Use
Identify High and Low Volatility
A high Z-Score (>2) indicates significant market volatility. This can signal momentum-driven moves, breakouts, or areas of increased risk.
A low Z-Score (<-2) suggests low volatility or a calm market environment. This often occurs before a potential breakout or reversal.
Trade Signals
High Volatility Zones (background highlight): Monitor for potential breakouts, trend continuations, or reversals.
Low Volatility Zones: Anticipate range-bound conditions or upcoming volatility spikes.
█ Settings
Source: Select the price source for scaling calculations (close, high, low, open).
Metric Measure: Choose the volatility measure:
Volume: Scales raw volume.
Close: Uses closing price changes.
Standard Deviation: Price dispersion.
ATR: Average True Range.
