Top-Down Trend and Key Levels with Swing Points//by antaryaami0
Overview
The “Top-Down Trend and Key Levels with Swing Points” indicator is a comprehensive tool designed to enhance your technical analysis by integrating multiple trading concepts into a single, easy-to-use script. It combines higher timeframe trend analysis, key price levels, swing point detection, and ranging market identification to provide a holistic view of market conditions. This indicator is particularly useful for traders who employ multi-timeframe analysis, support and resistance levels, and price action strategies.
Key Features
1. Higher Timeframe Trend Background Shading:
• Purpose: Identifies the prevailing trend on a higher timeframe to align lower timeframe trading decisions with the broader market direction.
• How it Works: The indicator compares the current higher timeframe close with the previous one to determine if the trend is up, down, or ranging.
• Customization:
• Trend Timeframe: Set your preferred higher timeframe (e.g., Daily, Weekly).
• Up Trend Color & Down Trend Color: Customize the background colors for uptrends and downtrends.
• Ranging Market Color: A separate color to indicate when the market is moving sideways.
2. Key Price Levels:
• Previous Day High (PDH) and Low (PDL):
• Purpose: Identifies key support and resistance levels from the previous trading day.
• Visualization: Plots horizontal lines at PDH and PDL with labels.
• Customization: Option to show or hide these levels and customize their colors.
• Pre-Market High (PMH) and Low (PML):
• Purpose: Highlights the price range during the pre-market session, which can indicate potential breakout levels.
• Visualization: Plots horizontal lines at PMH and PML with labels.
• Customization: Option to show or hide these levels and customize their colors.
3. First 5-Minute Marker (F5H/F5L):
• Purpose: Marks the high or low of the first 5 minutes after the market opens, which is significant for intraday momentum.
• How it Works:
• If the first 5-minute high is above the Pre-Market High (PMH), an “F5H” label is placed at the first 5-minute high.
• If the first 5-minute high is below the PMH, an “F5L” label is placed at the first 5-minute low.
• Visualization: Labels are placed at the 9:35 AM candle (closing of the first 5 minutes), colored in purple by default.
• Customization: Option to show or hide the marker and adjust the marker color.
4. Swing Points Detection:
• Purpose: Identifies significant pivot points in price action to help recognize trends and reversals.
• How it Works: Uses left and right bars to detect pivot highs and lows, then determines if they are Higher Highs (HH), Lower Highs (LH), Higher Lows (HL), or Lower Lows (LL).
• Visualization: Plots small markers (circles) with labels (HH, LH, HL, LL) at the corresponding swing points.
• Customization: Adjust the number of left and right bars for pivot detection and the size of the markers.
5. Ranging Market Detection:
• Purpose: Identifies periods when the market is consolidating (moving sideways) within a defined price range.
• How it Works: Calculates the highest high and lowest low over a specified period and determines if the price range is within a set percentage threshold.
• Visualization: Draws a gray box around the price action during the ranging period and labels the high and low prices at the end of the range.
• Customization: Adjust the range detection period and threshold, as well as the box color.
6. Trend Coloring on Chart:
• Purpose: Provides a visual cue for the short-term trend based on a moving average.
• How it Works: Colors the candles green if the price is above the moving average and red if below.
• Customization: Set the moving average length and customize the uptrend and downtrend colors.

Understanding the Indicator’s Logic
1. Higher Timeframe Trend Analysis:
• The indicator retrieves the closing prices of a higher timeframe using the request.security() function.
• It compares the current higher timeframe close with the previous one to determine the trend direction.
2. Key Level Calculation:
• Previous Day High/Low: Calculated by tracking the highest and lowest prices of the previous trading day.
• Pre-Market High/Low: Calculated by monitoring price action during the pre-market session.
3. First 5-Minute Marker Logic:
• At 9:35 AM (end of the first 5 minutes after market open), the indicator evaluates whether the first 5-minute high is above or below the PMH.
• It then places the appropriate label (F5H or F5L) on the chart.
4. Swing Points Detection:
• The script uses ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow() functions to detect pivot points.
• It then determines the type of swing point based on comparisons with previous swings.
5. Ranging Market Detection:
• The indicator looks back over a specified number of bars to find the highest high and lowest low.
• It calculates the percentage difference between these two points.
• If the difference is below the set threshold, the market is considered to be ranging, and a box is drawn around the price action.
Limitations and Considerations
• Indicator Limitations:
• Maximum Boxes and Labels: Due to Pine Script limitations, there is a maximum number of boxes and labels that can be displayed simultaneously.
• Performance Impact: Adding multiple visual elements (boxes, labels, markers) can affect the performance of the script on lower-end devices or with large amounts of data.
• Market Conditions:
• False Signals: Like any technical tool, the indicator may produce false signals, especially during volatile or erratic market conditions.
• Not a Standalone Solution: This indicator should be used as part of a comprehensive trading strategy, including risk management and other forms of analysis.

ADM Indicator [CHE] Comprehensive Description of the Three Market Phases for TradingView
Introduction
Financial markets often exhibit patterns that reflect the collective behavior of participants. Recognizing these patterns can provide traders with valuable insights into potential future price movements. The ADM Indicator is designed to help traders identify and capitalize on these patterns by detecting three primary market phases:
1. Accumulation Phase
2. Manipulation Phase
3. Distribution Phase
This indicator places labels on the chart to signify these phases, aiding traders in making informed decisions. Below is an in-depth explanation of each phase, including how the ADM Indicator detects them.
1. Accumulation Phase
Definition
The Accumulation Phase is a period where informed investors or institutions discreetly purchase assets before a potential price increase. During this phase, the price typically moves within a confined range between established highs and lows.
Characteristics
- Price Range Bound: The asset's price stays within the previous high and low after a timeframe change.
- Low Volatility: Minimal price movement indicates a balance between buyers and sellers.
- Steady Volume: Trading volume may remain relatively constant or show slight increases.
- Market Sentiment: General market interest is low, as the accumulation is not yet apparent to the broader market.
Detection with ADM Indicator
- Criteria: An accumulation is detected when the price remains within the previous high and low after a timeframe change.
- Indicator Action: At the end of the period, if accumulation has occurred, the indicator places a label "Accumulation" on the chart.
- Visual Cues: A yellow semi-transparent background highlights the accumulation phase, enhancing visual recognition.
Implications for Traders
- Entry Opportunity: Consider preparing for potential long positions before a possible upward move.
- Risk Management: Use tight stop-loss orders below the support level due to the defined trading range.
2. Manipulation Phase
Definition
The Manipulation Phase, also known as the Shakeout Phase, occurs when dominant market players intentionally move the price to trigger stop-loss orders and create panic among less-informed traders. This action generates liquidity and better entry prices for large positions.
Characteristics
- False Breakouts: The price moves above the previous high or below the previous low but quickly reverses.
- Increased Volatility: Sharp price movements occur without fundamental reasons.
- Stop-Loss Hunting: The price targets common stop-loss areas, triggering them before reversing.
- Emotional Trading: Retail traders may react impulsively, leading to poor trading decisions.
Detection with ADM Indicator
- Manipulation Up:
- Criteria: Detected when the price rises above the previous high and then falls back below it.
- Indicator Action: Places a label "Manipulation Up" on the chart at the point of detection.
- Manipulation Down:
- Criteria: Detected when the price falls below the previous low and then rises back above it.
- Indicator Action: Places a label "Manipulation Down" on the chart at the point of detection.
- Visual Cues:
- Manipulation Up: Blue background highlights the phase.
- Manipulation Down: Orange background highlights the phase.
Implications for Traders
- Caution Advised: Be wary of false signals and avoid overreacting to sudden price changes.
- Preparation for Next Phase: Use this phase to anticipate potential distribution and adjust strategies accordingly.
3. Distribution Phase
Definition
The Distribution Phase occurs when the institutions or informed investors who accumulated positions start selling to the general market at higher prices. This phase often follows a Manipulation Phase and may signal an impending trend reversal.
Characteristics
- Price Reversal: The price moves in the opposite direction of the prior manipulation.
- High Trading Volume: Increased selling activity as large players offload positions.
- Trend Weakening: The previous trend loses momentum, indicating a potential shift.
- Market Sentiment Shift: Optimism fades, and uncertainty or pessimism may emerge.
Detection with ADM Indicator
- Distribution Up:
- Criteria: Detected after a verified Manipulation Up when the price subsequently falls below the previous low.
- Indicator Action: Places a label "Distribution Up" on the chart.
- Distribution Down:
- Criteria: Detected after a verified Manipulation Down when the price subsequently rises above the previous high.
- Indicator Action: Places a label "Distribution Down" on the chart.
- Visual Cues:
- Distribution Up: Purple background highlights the phase.
- Distribution Down: Maroon background highlights the phase.
Implications for Traders
- Exit Signals: Consider closing long positions if in a Distribution Up phase.
- Short Selling Opportunities: Potential to enter short positions anticipating a downtrend.

ATR% Multiple from Key Moving AverageThis script gives signal when the ATR% multiple from any chosen moving average is beyond the configurable threshold value. This indicator quantifies how extended the stock is from a given key moving average.
A lot of traders use ATR% multiple from 10DMA, 21EMA, 50SMA or 200SMA to determine how extended a stock is and accordingly sell partials or exit. By default the indicator takes 50SMA and when the ATR% multiple is greater than 7 then it gives the signal to take partials. You can back test this indicator with previous trades and determine the ideal threshold for the signal. For small and midcaps a threshold of 7 to 10 ATR% multiples from 50SMA is where partials can be taken while large caps can revert to mean even earlier at 3 to 5 ATR% multiples from 50SMA.
You can modify this script and use it anyway you please as long as you make it opensource on TradingView.
Moving Average with Buy/Sell SignalsBINANCE:BTCUSD
Pine Script Brief: "44 Moving Average with Buy/Sell Signals"
This Pine Script is designed to generate buy and sell signals based on the interaction of the price with the 44-period Simple Moving Average (SMA). It also considers the closing behavior of the last five candles to further refine the conditions for generating signals. The script is intended for use in technical analysis for trading strategies on platforms like TradingView.
Features:
44-Period Simple Moving Average (SMA):
The script calculates and plots the 44-period SMA of the closing price on the chart, providing a trend-following indicator.
The SMA is used as a key level to determine when price action is "touching" or interacting with the moving average.
Buy and Sell Signal Logic:
Buy Signal:
The candle is green (close > open).
The candle's high and low are around the 44 SMA, indicating the candle is "touching" or near the moving average.
At least 2 of the last 5 candles must have closed above the 44 SMA.
The 44 SMA is positioned below the midpoint of the current candle.
Sell Signal:
The candle is red (close < open).
The candle's high and low are around the 44 SMA.
At least 2 of the last 5 candles must have closed below the 44 SMA.
The 44 SMA is positioned above the midpoint of the current candle.
Label Plotting:
The script uses the plotSignal function to plot buy and sell labels directly on the chart. The labels are plotted at the low of a green candle (for buy signals) and the high of a red candle (for sell signals).
Labels are color-coded for quick identification: green for buy and red for sell.
EMA for Smoothing (Optional):
An optional Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is plotted for additional trend smoothing, allowing users to visualize another moving average for possible trend-following strategies.
The length of the EMA is customizable, and it is plotted on the chart alongside the 44 SMA.
Alert Conditions:
Alerts can be set up for both buy and sell signals, notifying the user when these conditions are met. The alerts are triggered whenever the script detects a valid buy or sell signal.
Customizable Inputs:
The script allows customization of the following:
Smoothing Length: For the optional EMA line.
Tolerance: For adjusting the proximity check (candle touching the 44 SMA).
Styling: The color and text of the buy and sell labels can be customized.
Usage:
This script can be used by traders who want to identify possible entry and exit points based on price interaction with the 44-period moving average, combined with the behavior of previous candles. It is suitable for trend-following strategies and can be used in conjunction with other indicators to refine trading decisions.
Key Benefits:
Provides visual signals (buy/sell) directly on the chart.
Considers both immediate price action and historical trends (previous candles).
Offers customization for moving averages and labels.
Alerts can be set for automated notifications.
This Pine Script helps traders make informed decisions by combining the reliability of moving averages with price action and historical candle behavior, enhancing trading strategies based on trend-following principles.
Candle Average PriceOverview
The Candle Average Price indicator is a custom tool designed to help traders identify key price levels by calculating and displaying the average price of recent candles on your TradingView chart. This indicator computes the average price based on a user-defined percentage of each candle's range over a specified number of candles. It then plots a horizontal line representing this average, covering only the last N candles as defined by you.
Key Features
Customizable Number of Candles: Define how many past candles to include in the average calculation.
Adjustable Percentage Level: Choose any percentage of each candle's range (from low to high) to calculate the price level.
Dynamic Horizontal Line: The indicator plots a horizontal line representing the calculated average, updating with each new bar and covering only the specified number of candles.
How It Works
Price at Specified Percentage:
For each candle, the indicator calculates a price level at your chosen percentage within the candle's range.
Formula: Price = Low + (Percentage Level / 100) * (High - Low)
Average Price Calculation:
It computes the average of these price levels over the last N candles.
Formula: Average Price = Sum of Price Levels over N Candles / N
Horizontal Line Plotting:
A horizontal line is drawn at the calculated average price level.
The line spans from N candles ago to the current candle, covering exactly the number of candles specified.
Input Parameters
Number of Candles (length):
Description: The number of recent candles over which the average is calculated.
Default Value: 4
Range: 1 to any positive integer.
Usage: Adjust this to include more or fewer candles in the calculation. A higher number smooths the average, while a lower number makes it more responsive to recent price changes.
Percentage Level (%):
Description: The percentage within each candle's range to calculate the price level.
Default Value: 50%
Range: 0% (candle low) to 100% (candle high).
Usage: Modify this to focus on different parts of each candle:
0%: Uses the low of each candle.
50%: Uses the midpoint of each candle.
100%: Uses the high of each candle.
Custom Percentage: Any value between 0% and 100% to target specific levels.
How to Use the Indicator
Adding the Indicator to Your Chart:
Open the TradingView chart of your preferred financial instrument.
Click on Indicators at the top of the chart.

Interpreting the Horizontal Line:
The horizontal line represents the average price calculated based on your inputs.
It updates with each new bar, always reflecting the most recent data over the specified number of candles.
The line only spans the last N candles, providing a focused view of recent price action.
Practical Applications
Identifying Support and Resistance Levels:
The average price line can act as a dynamic support or resistance level.
Traders can watch for price reactions around this line to make trading decisions.
Trend Analysis:
Observing how the price interacts with the average line can provide insights into the current trend's strength and potential reversals.
Entry and Exit Signals:
Use the line as a reference point for setting stop-loss orders or taking profits.
Combine it with other indicators for more robust trading signals.
In highly volatile markets, consider increasing the number of candles to avoid false signals.
Limitations and Considerations
Not a Standalone Tool:
This indicator should not be used in isolation for making trading decisions. Always consider additional analysis.
Market Conditions Matter:
The indicator may perform differently in trending markets versus ranging markets.
Data Refresh:
Ensure you have a stable internet connection and that your TradingView chart is set to the correct time frame.

Mean Price
^^ Plotting switched to Line.
This method of financial time series (aka bars) downsampling is literally, naturally, and thankfully the best you can do in terms of maximizing info gain. You can finally chill and feed it to your studies & eyes, and probably use nothing else anymore.
(HL2 and occ3 also have use cases, but other aggregation methods? Not really, even if they do, the use cases are ‘very’ specific). Tho in order to understand why, you gotta read the following wall, or just believe me telling you, ‘I put it on my momma’.
The true story about trading volumes and why this is all a big misdirection
Actually, you don’t need to be a quant to get there. All you gotta do is stop blindly following other people’s contextual (at best) solutions, eg OC2 aggregation xD, and start using your own brain to figure things out.
Every individual trade (basically an imprint on 1D price space that emerges when market orders hit the order book) has several features like: price, time, volume, AND direction (Up if a market buy order hits the asks, Down if a market sell order hits the bids). Now, the last two features—volume and direction—can be effectively combined into one (by multiplying volume by 1 or -1), and this is probably how every order matching engine should output data. If we’re not considering size/direction, we’re leaving data behind. Moreover, trades aren’t just one-price dots all the time. One trade can consume liquidity on several levels of the order book, so a single trade can be several ticks big on the price axis.
You may think now that there are no zero-volume ticks. Well, yes and no. It depends on how you design an exchange and whether you allow intra-spread trades/mid-spread trades (now try to Google it). Intra-spread trades could happen if implemented when a matching engine receives both buy and sell orders at the same microsecond period. This way, you can match the orders with each other at a better price for both parties without even hitting the book and consuming liquidity. Also, if orders have different sizes, the remaining part of the bigger order can be sent to the order book. Basically, this type of trade can be treated as an OTC trade, having zero volume because we never actually hit the book—there’s no imprint. Another reason why it makes sense is when we think about volume as an impact or imbalance act, and how the medium (order book in our case) responds to it, providing information. OTC and mid-spread trades are not aggressive sells or buys; they’re neutral ticks, so to say. However huge they are, sometimes many blocks on NYSE, they don’t move the price because there’s no impact on the medium (again, which is the order book)—they’re not providing information.
... Now, we need to aggregate these trades into, let’s say, 1-hour bars (remember that a trade can have either positive or negative volume). We either don’t want to do it, or we don’t have this kind of information. What we can do is take already aggregated OHLC bars and extract all the info from them. Given the market is fractal, bars & trades gotta have the same set of features:
- Highest & lowest ticks (high & low) <- by price;
- First & last ticks (open & close) <- by time;
- Biggest and smallest ticks <- by volume.*
*e.g., in the array ,
2323: biggest trade,
-1212: smallest trade.
Now, in our world, somehow nobody started to care about the biggest and smallest trades and their inclusion in OHLC data, while this is actually natural. It’s the same way as it’s done with high & low and open & close: we choose the minimum and maximum value of a given feature/axis within the aggregation period.
So, we don’t have these 2 values: biggest and smallest ticks. The best we can do is infer them, and given the fact the biggest and smallest ticks can be located with the same probability everywhere, all we can do is predict them in the middle of the bar, both in time and price axes. That’s why you can see two HL2’s in each of the 3 formulas in the code.
So, summed up absolute volumes that you see in almost every trading platform are actually just a derivative metric, something that I call Type 2 time series in my own (proprietary ‘for now’) methods. It doesn’t have much to do with market orders hitting the non-uniform medium (aka order book); it’s more like a statistic. Still wanna use VWAP? Ok, but you gotta understand you’re weighting Type 1 (natural) time series by Type 2 (synthetic) ones.
How to combine all the data in the right way (khmm khhm ‘order’)
Now, since we have 6 values for each bar, let’s see what information we have about them, what we don’t have, and what we can do about it:
- Open and close: we got both when and where (time (order) and price);
- High and low: we got where, but we don’t know when;
- Biggest & smallest trades: we know shit, we infer it the way it was described before.'
By using the location of the close & open prices relative to the high & low prices, we can make educated guesses about whether high or low was made first in a given bar. It’s not perfect, but it’s ultimately all we can do—this is the very last bit of info we can extract from the data we have.
There are 2 methods for inferring volume delta (which I call simply volume) that are presented everywhere, even here on TradingView. Funny thing is, this is actually 2 parts of the 1 method. I wonder how many folks see through it xD. The same method can be used for both inferring volume delta AND making educated guesses whether high or low was made first.
Imagine and/or find the cases on your charts to understand faster:
* Close > open means we have an up bar and probably the volume is positive, and probably high was made later than low.
* Close < open means we have a down bar and probably the volume is negative, and probably low was made later than high.
Now that’s the point when you see that these 2 mentioned methods are actually parts of the 1 method:
If close = open, we still have another clue: distance from open/close pair to high (HC), and distance from open/close pair to low (LC):
* HC < LC, probably high was made later.
* HC > LC, probably low was made later.
And only if close = open and HC = LC, only in this case we have no clue whether high or low was made earlier within a bar. We simply don’t have any more information to even guess. This bar is called a neutral bar.
At this point, we have both time (order) and price info for each of our 6 values. Now, we have to solve another weighted average problem, and that’s it. We’ll weight prices according to the order we’ve guessed. In the neutral bar case, open has a weight of 1, close has a weight of 3, and both high and low have weights of 2 since we can’t infer which one was made first. In all cases, biggest and smallest ticks are modeled with HL2 and weighted like they’re located in the middle of the bar in a time sense.
P.S.: I’ve also included a "robust" method where all the bars are treated like neutral ones. I’ve used it before; obviously, it has lesser info gain -> works a bit worse.
BTC Seasonality Strategy (Weekly)This strategy identifies potential weekend opportunities in Bitcoin (BTC) markets by leveraging the concept of seasonality, entering a position at a predefined time and day, and exiting at a specified time and day.
Key Features
Customizable Time and Day Selection:
Users can select the entry and exit days and corresponding times (in EST).
Directional Flexibility:
The strategy allows traders to choose between long or short positions.
TradingView Compliance:
The script adheres to TradingView's house rules, avoids overly complex conditions, and provides clear user-configurable inputs.
How It Works
The script determines the current weekday and hour in EST, converting TradingView's UTC time for accurate comparisons.
If the current day and hour match the selected entry conditions, a trade (long or short) is opened.
The position is closed when the current day and hour match the specified exit conditions.
Theoretical Basis
Market Seasonality:
The concept of seasonality in financial markets refers to predictable patterns based on time, such as weekends or specific days of the week. Studies have shown that cryptocurrency markets exhibit unique trading behaviors during weekends due to reduced institutional activity and higher retail participation behavioral Biases**:
Retail traders often dominate weekend markets, potentially causing predictable inefficiencies .

Zigzag3 -Invincible3Description:
Zigzag3 - Invincible3 is a powerful and flexible support and resistance indicator for TradingView. Utilizing an enhanced ZigZag algorithm and Dow Theory principles, it detects price pivots, higher highs (HH), lower highs (LH), higher lows (HL), and lower lows (LL). The indicator draws lines and labels to visualize these pivots, making it easier to identify market structure, trends, and potential reversal points.
The Length input allows traders to control the sensitivity of pivot detection.
Support and Resistance Lines:
Displays dotted and solid SR lines based on significant pivots to highlight key market zones.
Option to extend support/resistance lines dynamically with real-time progression for the latest pivot.
Labels for Dow Theory Points:
Mark higher highs, lower highs, higher lows, and lower lows with customizable colors.
Identifies market direction and potential breakout levels with visual clarity.
ZigZag Line Visualization:
Toggle the ZigZag lines to connect pivots for a better understanding of price movement.
Dynamic Dotted Line Progression:
A dotted line extends in real-time from the most recent significant pivot point, aiding in quick analysis.
This indicator is ideal for traders looking to analyze market structure, identify trends, and spot potential reversals. It can be used as a standalone tool or in combination with other strategies for enhanced precision.
ICT Candle Block (fadi)ICT Candle Block
When trading using ICT concepts, it is often beneficial to treat consecutive candles of the same color as a single entity. This approach helps traders identify Order Blocks, liquidity voids, and other key trading signals more effectively.
However, in situations where the market becomes choppy or moves slowly, recognizing continuous price movement can be challenging.
The ICT Candle Block indicator addresses these challenges by combining consecutive candles of the same color into a single entity. It redraws the resulting candles, making price visualization much easier and helping traders quickly identify key trading signals.
FVGs and Blocks
In the above snapshot, FVGs/Liquidity Voids, Order Blocks, and Breaker Blocks are easily identified. By analyzing the combined candles, traders can quickly determine the draw on liquidity and potential price targets using ICT concepts.
Unlike traditional higher timeframes that rigidly combine lower timeframe candles based on specific start and stop times, this indicator operates as a "mixed timeframe." It combines all buying and all selling activities into a single candle, regardless of when the transactions started and ended.
Limitations
There are currently TradingView limitations that affect the functionality of this indicator:
TradingView does not have a Candle object; therefore, this indicator relies on using boxes and lines to mimic the candles. This results in wider candles than expected, leading to misalignment with the time axis below (plotcandle is not the answer).
There is a limit on the number of objects that can be drawn on a chart. A maximum of 500 candles has been set.
A rendering issue may cause a sideways box to appear across the chart. This is a display bug in TradingView; scroll to the left until it clears.
ADX Breakout Strategy█ OVERVIEW
The ADX Breakout strategy leverages the Average Directional Index (ADX) to identify and execute breakout trades within specified trading sessions. Designed for the NQ and ES 30-minute charts, this strategy aims to capture significant price movements while managing risk through predefined stop losses and trade limits.
This strategy was taken from a strategy that was posted on YouTube. I would link the video, but I believe is is "against house rules".
█ CONCEPTS
The strategy is built upon the following key concepts:
ADX Indicator: Utilizes the ADX to gauge the strength of a trend. Trades are initiated when the ADX value is below a certain threshold, indicating potential for trend development.
Trade Session Management: Limits trading to specific hours to align with optimal market activity periods.
Risk Management: Implements a fixed dollar stop loss and restricts the number of trades per session to control exposure.
█ FEATURES
Customizable Stop Loss: Set your preferred stop loss amount to manage risk effectively.
Trade Session Configuration: Define the trading hours to focus on the most active market periods.
Entry Conditions: Enter long positions when the price breaks above the highest close in the lookback window and the ADX indicates potential trend strength.
Trade Limits: Restrict the number of trades per session to maintain disciplined trading.
Automated Exit: Automatically closes all positions at the end of the trading session to avoid overnight risk.
█ HOW TO USE
Configure Inputs :
Stop Loss ($): Set the maximum loss per trade.
Trade Session: Define the active trading hours.
Highest Lookback Window: Specify the number of bars to consider for the highest close.
Apply the Strategy :
Add the ADX Breakout strategy to your chart on TradingView.
Ensure you are using a 30-minute timeframe for optimal performance.
█ LIMITATIONS
Market Conditions: The strategy is optimized for trending markets and may underperform in sideways or highly volatile conditions.
Timeframe Specific: Designed specifically for 30-minute charts; performance may vary on different timeframes.
Single Asset Focus: Primarily tested on NQ and ES instruments; effectiveness on other symbols is not guaranteed.

MA Rainbow-AYNETSummary of the "MA Rainbow"
The 200 MA Rainbow script creates a visually appealing representation of multiple moving averages (MAs) with varying lengths and colors to provide insights into price trends and market momentum.
Key Features:
Base Moving Average:
A starting point (ma_length, default 200) is used as the foundation for all other bands.
Rainbow Bands:
The script generates multiple moving averages (bands) with increasing lengths, spaced by a user-defined band_spacing multiplier.
The number of bands is controlled by rainbow_bands, allowing up to 7 bands.
Moving Average Types:
Users can select the MA type: Simple (SMA), Exponential (EMA), or Weighted (WMA).
Dynamic Colors:
Each band is assigned a unique color from a predefined rainbow palette, making the chart visually distinct.
Inputs for Customization:
ma_length: Adjust the base period of the moving average.
rainbow_bands: Set the number of bands to display.
band_spacing: Control the spread between bands.
How It Works:
Precomputing Bands:
Each band’s length is calculated based on the base length (ma_length) and a multiplier (band_spacing).
For example, if ma_length = 200 and band_spacing = 0.2, the lengths of the first 3 bands will be:
Band 1: 200
Band 2: 240
Band 3: 280
Global Plotting:
Each band’s moving average is precomputed using the selected type (SMA, EMA, or WMA).
Bands are plotted globally to avoid scope issues, ensuring compatibility with Pine Script rules.
Color Cycling:
Colors are assigned dynamically from a rainbow palette (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, teal).
Use Case:
The 200 MA Rainbow helps traders:
Visualize market trends with multiple layers of moving averages.
Identify areas of support and resistance.
Gauge momentum through the spread and alignment of bands.
Customization:
Users can:
Change the base moving average length (ma_length).
Adjust the number of bands (rainbow_bands).
Control the spread between bands with band_spacing.
Select the moving average type (SMA, EMA, WMA).
Application:

[AWC] Vector -AYNETThis Pine Script code is a custom indicator designed for TradingView. Its purpose is to visualize the opening and closing prices of a specific timeframe (e.g., weekly, daily, or monthly) by drawing lines between these price points whenever a new bar forms in the specified timeframe. Below is a detailed explanation from a scientific perspective:
1. Input Parameters
The code includes user-defined inputs to customize its functionality:
tf1: This input defines the timeframe (e.g., 'W' for weekly, 'D' for daily). It determines the periodicity for analyzing price data.
icol: This input specifies the color of the lines drawn on the chart. Users can select from predefined options such as black, red, or blue.
2. Color Assignment
A switch statement maps the user’s color selection (icol) to the corresponding color object in Pine Script. This mapping ensures that the drawn lines adhere to the user's preference.
3. New Bar Detection
The script uses the ta.change(time(tf1)) function to determine when a new bar forms in the specified timeframe (tf1):
ta.change checks if the timestamp of the current bar differs from the previous one within the selected timeframe.
If the value changes, it indicates that a new bar has formed, and further calculations are triggered.
4. Data Request
The script employs request.security to fetch price data from the specified timeframe:
o1: Retrieves the opening price of the previous bar.
c1: Calculates the average price (high, low, close) of the previous bar using the hlc3 formula.
These values represent the key price levels for visualizing the line.
5. Line Drawing
When a new bar is detected:
The script uses line.new to create a line connecting the previous bar's opening price (o1) and the closing price (c1).
The line’s properties are defined as follows:
x1, y1: The starting point corresponds to the opening price at the previous bar index.
x2, y2: The endpoint corresponds to the closing price at the current bar index.
color: Uses the user-defined color (col).
style: The line style is set to line.style_arrow_right.
Additionally, the lines are stored in an array (lines) for later reference, enabling potential modifications or deletions.
6. Visual Outcome
The script visually represents price movements over the specified timeframe:
Each line connects the opening and closing price of a completed bar in the given timeframe.
The lines are drawn dynamically, updating whenever a new bar forms.
Scientific Context
This script applies concepts of time series analysis and visualization in financial data:
Time Segmentation: By isolating specific timeframes (e.g., weekly), the script provides a focused analysis of price behavior.
Price Dynamics: Connecting opening and closing prices highlights key price transitions within each period.
User Customization: The inclusion of inputs allows for adaptable use, accommodating different analytical preferences.
Applications
Trend Analysis: Identifies how price evolves between opening and closing levels across periods.
Market Behavior Comparison: Facilitates the observation of patterns or anomalies in price transitions over time.
Technical Indicators: Serves as a supplementary tool for decision-making in trading strategies.

Honest Volatility Grid [Honestcowboy]The Honest Volatility Grid is an attempt at creating a robust grid trading strategy but without standard levels.
Normal grid systems use price levels like 1.01;1.02;1.03;1.04... and place an order at each of these levels. In this program instead we create a grid using keltner channels using a long term moving average.
🟦 IS THIS EVEN USEFUL?
The idea is to have a more fluid style of trading where levels expand and follow price and do not stick to precreated levels. This however also makes each closed trade different instead of using fixed take profit levels. In this strategy a take profit level can even be a loss. It is useful as a strategy because it works in a different way than most strategies, making it a good tool to diversify a portfolio of trading strategies.
🟦 STRATEGY
There are 10 levels below the moving average and 10 above the moving average. For each side of the moving average the strategy uses 1 to 3 orders maximum (3 shorts at top, 3 longs at bottom). For instance you buy at level 2 below moving average and you increase position size when level 6 is reached (a cheaper price) in order to spread risks.
By default the strategy exits all trades when the moving average is reached, this makes it a mean reversion strategy. It is specifically designed for the forex market as these in my experience exhibit a lot of ranging behaviour on all the timeframes below daily.
There is also a stop loss at the outer band by default, in case price moves too far from the mean.
What are the risks?
In case price decides to stay below the moving average and never reaches the outer band one trade can create a very substantial loss, as the bands will keep following price and are not at a fixed level.
Explanation of default parameters
By default the strategy uses a starting capital of 25000$, this is realistic for retail traders.
Lot sizes at each level are set to minimum lot size 0.01, there is no reason for the default to be risky, if you want to risk more or increase equity curve increase the number at your own risk.
Slippage set to 20 points: that's a normal 2 pip slippage you will find on brokers.
Fill limit assumtion 20 points: so it takes 2 pips to confirm a fill, normal forex spread.
Commission is set to 0.00005 per contract: this means that for each contract traded there is a 5$ or whatever base currency pair has as commission. The number is set to 0.00005 because pinescript does not know that 1 contract is 100000 units. So we divide the number by 100000 to get a realistic commission.
The script will also multiply lot size by 100000 because pinescript does not know that lots are 100000 units in forex.
Extra safety limit
Normally the script uses strategy.exit() to exit trades at TP or SL. But because these are created 1 bar after a limit or stop order is filled in pinescript. There are strategy.orders set at the outer boundaries of the script to hedge against that risk. These get deleted bar after the first order is filled. Purely to counteract news bars or huge spikes in price messing up backtest.
🟦 VISUAL GOODIES
I've added a market profile feature to the edge of the grid. This so you can see in which grid zone market has been the most over X bars in the past. Some traders may wish to only turn on the strategy whenever the market profile displays specific characteristics (ranging market for instance).
These simply count how many times a high, low, or close price has been in each zone for X bars in the past. it's these purple boxes at the right side of the chart.
🟦 Script can be fully automated to MT5
There are risk settings in lot sizes or % for alerts and symbol settings provided at the bottom of the indicator. The script will send alert to MT5 broker trying to mimic the execution that happens on tradingview. There are always delays when using a bridge to MT5 broker and there could be errors so be mindful of that. This script sends alerts in format so they can be read by tradingview.to which is a bridge between the platforms.
Use the all alert function calls feature when setting up alerts and make sure you provide the right webhook if you want to use this approach.
Almost every setting in this indicator has a tooltip added to it. So if any setting is not clear hover over the (?) icon on the right of the setting.
No Trade Zone Indicator [CHE]No Trade Zone Indicator
The "No Trade Zone Indicator " is a powerful tool designed to help traders identify periods when the market may not present favorable trading opportunities. By analyzing the percentage change in the 20-period Simple Moving Average (SMA20) relative to a dynamically adjusted threshold based on market volatility, this indicator highlights times when it's prudent to stay out of the market.
Why Knowing When Not to Trade Is Important
Understanding when not to trade is just as crucial as knowing when to enter or exit a position. Trading during periods of low volatility or uncertain market direction can lead to unnecessary risks and potential losses. By recognizing these "No Trade Zones," you can:
- Avoid Low-Probability Trades: Reduce the chances of entering trades with unfavorable risk-to-reward ratios.
- Preserve Capital: Protect your investment from unpredictable market movements.
- Enhance Focus: Concentrate on high-quality trading opportunities that align with your strategy.
How the Indicator Works
- SMA20 Calculation: Computes the 20-period Simple Moving Average of closing prices to identify the market's short-term trend.
- ATR Measurement: Calculates the Average True Range (ATR) over a user-defined period (default is 14) to assess market volatility.
- Dynamic Threshold: Determines an adjusted threshold by multiplying the ATR percentage by a Threshold Adjustment Factor (default is 0.05).
- Trend Analysis: Compares the percentage change of the SMA20 against the adjusted threshold to evaluate market momentum.
- Status Identification:
- Long: Indicates a rising SMA20 above the threshold—suggesting a potential upward trend.
- Short: Indicates a falling SMA20 above the threshold—suggesting a potential downward trend.
- No Trade: Signals when the SMA20 change is below the threshold, marking a period of low volatility or indecision.
Features
- Customizable Settings: Adjust the ATR period and Threshold Adjustment Factor to suit different trading styles and market conditions.
- Visual Indicators: Colored columns represent market status—green for "Long," red for "Short," and gray for "No Trade."
- On-Chart Table: An optional table displays the current market status directly on your chart for quick reference.
- Alerts: Set up alerts to receive notifications when the market enters a "No Trade Zone," helping you stay informed without constant monitoring.
How to Use the Indicator
1. Add to Chart: Apply the "No Trade Zone Indicator " to your preferred trading chart on TradingView.
2. Configure Settings: Customize the ATR period and Threshold Adjustment Factor based on your analysis and risk tolerance.
3. Interpret Signals:
- Green Columns: Consider looking for buying opportunities as the market shows upward momentum.
- Red Columns: Consider looking for selling opportunities as the market shows downward momentum.
- Gray Columns: Refrain from trading as the market lacks clear direction.
4. Monitor Alerts: Use the alert feature to get notified when the market status changes, allowing you to make timely decisions.
Conclusion
Incorporating the "No Trade Zone Indicator " into your trading toolkit can enhance your decision-making process by clearly indicating when the market may not be conducive to trading. By focusing on periods with favorable conditions and avoiding low-volatility times, you can improve your trading performance and achieve better results over the long term.
