log.info() - 5 Exampleslog.info() is one of the most powerful tools in Pine Script that no one knows about. Whenever you code, you want to be able to debug, or find out why something isn’t working. The log.info() command will help you do that. Without it, creating more complex Pine Scripts becomes exponentially more difficult.
The first thing to note is that log.info() only displays strings. So, if you have a variable that is not a string, you must turn it into a string in order for log.info() to work. The way you do that is with the str.tostring() command. And remember, it's all lower case! You can throw in any numeric value (float, int, timestamp) into str.string() and it should work.
Next, in order to make your output intelligible, you may want to identify whatever value you are logging. For example, if an RSI value is 50, you don’t want a bunch of lines that just say “50”. You may want it to say “RSI = 50”.
To do that, you’ll have to use the concatenation operator. For example, if you have a variable called “rsi”, and its value is 50, then you would use the “+” concatenation symbol.
EXAMPLE 1
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
//@version=6
indicator("log.info()")
rsi = ta.rsi(close,14)
log.info(“RSI= ” + str.tostring(rsi))
Example Output =>
RSI= 50
Here, we use double quotes to create a string that contains the name of the variable, in this case “RSI = “, then we concatenate it with a stringified version of the variable, rsi.
Now that you know how to write a log, where do you view them? There isn’t a lot of documentation on it, and the link is not conveniently located.
Open up the “Pine Editor” tab at the bottom of any chart view, and you’ll see a “3 dot” button at the top right of the pane. Click that, and right above the “Help” menu item you’ll see “Pine logs”. Clicking that will open that to open a pane on the right of your browser - replacing whatever was in the right pane area before. This is where your log output will show up.
But, because you’re dealing with time series data, using the log.info() command without some type of condition will give you a fast moving stream of numbers that will be difficult to interpret. So, you may only want the output to show up once per bar, or only under specific conditions.
To have the output show up only after all computations have completed, you’ll need to use the barState.islast command. Remember, barState is camelCase, but islast is not!
EXAMPLE 2
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
//@version=6
indicator("log.info()")
rsi = ta.rsi(close,14)
if barState.islast
log.info("RSI=" + str.tostring(rsi))
plot(rsi)
However, this can be less than ideal, because you may want the value of the rsi variable on a particular bar, at a particular time, or under a specific chart condition. Let’s hit these one at a time.
In each of these cases, the built-in bar_index variable will come in handy. When debugging, I typically like to assign a variable “bix” to represent bar_index, and include it in the output.
So, if I want to see the rsi value when RSI crosses above 0.5, then I would have something like
EXAMPLE 3
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
//@version=6
indicator("log.info()")
rsi = ta.rsi(close,14)
bix = bar_index
rsiCrossedOver = ta.crossover(rsi,0.5)
if rsiCrossedOver
log.info("bix=" + str.tostring(bix) + " - RSI=" + str.tostring(rsi))
plot(rsi)
Example Output =>
bix=19964 - RSI=51.8449459867
bix=19972 - RSI=50.0975830828
bix=19983 - RSI=53.3529808079
bix=19985 - RSI=53.1595745146
bix=19999 - RSI=66.6466337654
bix=20001 - RSI=52.2191767466
Here, we see that the output only appears when the condition is met.
A useful thing to know is that if you want to limit the number of decimal places, then you would use the command str.tostring(rsi,”#.##”), which tells the interpreter that the format of the number should only be 2 decimal places. Or you could round the rsi variable with a command like rsi2 = math.round(rsi*100)/100 . In either case you’re output would look like:
bix=19964 - RSI=51.84
bix=19972 - RSI=50.1
bix=19983 - RSI=53.35
bix=19985 - RSI=53.16
bix=19999 - RSI=66.65
bix=20001 - RSI=52.22
This would decrease the amount of memory that’s being used to display your variable’s values, which can become a limitation for the log.info() command. It only allows 4096 characters per line, so when you get to trying to output arrays (which is another cool feature), you’ll have to keep that in mind.
Another thing to note is that log output is always preceded by a timestamp, but for the sake of brevity, I’m not including those in the output examples.
If you wanted to only output a value after the chart was fully loaded, that’s when barState.islast command comes in. Under this condition, only one line of output is created per tick update — AFTER the chart has finished loading. For example, if you only want to see what the the current bar_index and rsi values are, without filling up your log window with everything that happens before, then you could use the following code:
EXAMPLE 4
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
//@version=6
indicator("log.info()")
rsi = ta.rsi(close,14)
bix = bar_index
if barstate.islast
log.info("bix=" + str.tostring(bix) + " - RSI=" + str.tostring(rsi))
Example Output =>
bix=20203 - RSI=53.1103309071
This value would keep updating after every new bar tick.
The log.info() command is a huge help in creating new scripts, however, it does have its limitations. As mentioned earlier, only 4096 characters are allowed per line. So, although you can use log.info() to output arrays, you have to be aware of how many characters that array will use.
The following code DOES NOT WORK! And, the only way you can find out why will be the red exclamation point next to the name of the indicator. That, and nothing will show up on the chart, or in the logs.
// CODE DOESN’T WORK
//@version=6
indicator("MW - log.info()")
var array rsi_arr = array.new()
rsi = ta.rsi(close,14)
bix = bar_index
rsiCrossedOver = ta.crossover(rsi,50)
if rsiCrossedOver
array.push(rsi_arr, rsi)
if barstate.islast
log.info("rsi_arr:" + str.tostring(rsi_arr))
log.info("bix=" + str.tostring(bix) + " - RSI=" + str.tostring(rsi))
plot(rsi)
// No code errors, but will not compile because too much is being written to the logs.
However, after putting some time restrictions in with the i_startTime and i_endTime user input variables, and creating a dateFilter variable to use in the conditions, I can limit the size of the final array. So, the following code does work.
EXAMPLE 5
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
// CODE DOES WORK
//@version=6
indicator("MW - log.info()")
i_startTime = input.time(title="Start", defval=timestamp("01 Jan 2025 13:30 +0000"))
i_endTime = input.time(title="End", defval=timestamp("1 Jan 2099 19:30 +0000"))
var array rsi_arr = array.new()
dateFilter = time >= i_startTime and time <= i_endTime
rsi = ta.rsi(close,14)
bix = bar_index
rsiCrossedOver = ta.crossover(rsi,50) and dateFilter // <== The dateFilter condition keeps the array from getting too big
if rsiCrossedOver
array.push(rsi_arr, rsi)
if barstate.islast
log.info("rsi_arr:" + str.tostring(rsi_arr))
log.info("bix=" + str.tostring(bix) + " - RSI=" + str.tostring(rsi))
plot(rsi)
Example Output =>
rsi_arr:
bix=20210 - RSI=56.9030578034
Of course, if you restrict the decimal places by using the rounding the rsi value with something like rsiRounded = math.round(rsi * 100) / 100 , then you can further reduce the size of your array. In this case the output may look something like:
Example Output =>
rsi_arr:
bix=20210 - RSI=55.6947486019
This will give your code a little breathing room.
In a nutshell, I was coding for over a year trying to debug by pushing output to labels, tables, and using libraries that cluttered up my code. Once I was able to debug with log.info() it was a game changer. I was able to start building much more advanced scripts. Hopefully, this will help you on your journey as well.

Normalized Volume IndexIn the realm of technical analysis, volume is more than just a measure of market activity—it’s a window into trader psychology. Two classic indicators that harness this insight are the Positive Volume Index (PVI) and Negative Volume Index (NVI). Developed in the early 20th century by Paul L. Dysart and later refined by Norman G. Fosback in 1976, these tools aim to distinguish between the behavior of the so-called “smart money” and the broader market crowd.
- Positive Volume Index (PVI) tracks price changes only on days when trading volume increases. It assumes that rising volume reflects the actions of less-informed retail traders—those who follow the herd.
- Negative Volume Index (NVI), on the other hand, focuses on days when volume decreases, under the premise that institutional investors (the “smart money”) are more active when the market is quiet.
This dichotomy allows traders to interpret market sentiment through the lens of volume behavior. For example, a rising NVI during a price uptrend may suggest that institutional investors are quietly accumulating positions—often a bullish signal.
Traders use PVI and NVI to:
- Confirm trends: If NVI is above its moving average, it often signals a strong underlying trend supported by smart money.
- Spot reversals: Divergences between price and either index can hint at weakening momentum or upcoming reversals.
- Gauge participation: PVI rising faster than price may indicate overenthusiastic retail buying—potentially a contrarian signal.
These indicators are often paired with moving averages (e.g., 255-day EMA) to generate actionable signals. Fosback’s research suggested that when NVI is above its one-year EMA, there’s a high probability of a bull market.
While PVI and NVI are cumulative indices, normalizing them—for example, by rebasing to 100 or converting to percentage changes—offers several benefits:
- Comparability: Normalized indices can be compared across different assets or timeframes.
- Clarity: It becomes easier to visualize relative strength or weakness.
- Backtesting: Normalized values are more suitable for algorithmic strategies and statistical analysis.
Normalization also helps when combining PVI/NVI with other indicators in multi-factor models, ensuring no single metric dominates due to scale differences
In essence, PVI and NVI offer a nuanced view of market dynamics by separating the noise of volume surges from the quiet confidence of institutional moves. When normalized and interpreted correctly, they become powerful allies in a trader’s decision-making toolkit.
How to use this (Educational material):
For instance, on average, when the Negative Volume Index (NVI) remains above its midline, the market tends to trend positively, reflecting consistent institutional participation. However, when the NVI dips and stays below the midline, it often signals a negative trend, indicating that smart money is stepping away or reducing exposure.
Another telling scenario occurs when the Positive Volume Index (PVI) drops below the NVI. While this might coincide with a brief price dip, institutions often interpret this as an opportunity to buy the dip, quietly accumulating positions while retail participants exit in panic. The result? A market recovery driven by smart money.
Conversely, when the PVI consistently remains above the NVI, it may point to retail enthusiasm outpacing institutional support. This imbalance can flag a tired or overextended trend, where the smart money has already positioned itself defensively. When this pattern persists, there's a high likelihood that institutions will pull the plug, leading to a pronounced trend reversal.

🛠️ Built in Pine Script v5
Rolling 250-Day Sharpe RatioThis Pine Script indicator, “Rolling 250-Day Sharpe Ratio”, computes the trailing Sharpe Ratio for any traded asset over a 250-session window, equivalent to approximately one trading year. The script first derives daily log returns and adjusts them by subtracting the daily equivalent of the 3-month US Treasury yield to obtain the excess return. It then calculates the rolling mean and standard deviation of these excess returns to produce the annualized Sharpe Ratio, which is displayed as a continuous time series on the chart. This allows traders and analysts to assess how the asset’s risk-adjusted performance evolves over time relative to a risk-free benchmark.
A persistently high Sharpe Ratio can indicate strong risk-adjusted returns, but it is essential to approach extreme values with caution. Elevated Sharpe readings can sometimes reflect unsustainable trends, excessive leverage, or periods of unusually low volatility that may revert abruptly. Conversely, a low or negative Sharpe Ratio does not automatically imply an asset should be avoided; it might signal an opportunity if the risk environment normalizes.
True Close – Institutional Trading Sessions (Zeiierman)█ Overview
True Close – Institutional Trading Sessions (Zeiierman) is a professional-grade session mapping tool designed to help traders align with how institutions perceive the market’s true close. Unlike the textbook “daily close” used by retail traders, institutional desks often anchor their risk management, execution benchmarks, and exposure metrics to the first hour of the next session.
This indicator visualizes that logic directly on your chart — drawing session boxes, true close levels, and time-aligned labels across Sydney, Tokyo, London, and New York. It highlights the first hour of each session, projects the institutional closing price, and builds a live dashboard that tells you which sessions are active, which are in the critical opening phase, and what levels matter most right now.
More than just a visual tool, this indicator embeds institutional rhythm directly into your workflow — giving you a window into where big players finalize yesterday’s business, rebalance exposure, and execute delayed orders. It’s not just about painting sessions on your chart — it’s about adopting the mindset of those who truly move the market. Institutions don’t settle risk at the bell; they complete it in the next session. This tool lets you see that transition in real time, giving you an edge that goes beyond candles and indicators.
█ How It Works
⚪ Session Detection Engine
Each session is identified by its own time block (e.g., 09:00–17:30 for London). Once a session opens:
A full-session box is drawn to track its range.
The first hour is highlighted separately.
Once the first hour completes, the true close line is plotted, representing the price institutions often treat as the "real" close of the prior day.
⚪ Institutional True Close Logic
The script captures the close of the first hour, not the end of the day.
This line becomes a static reference across your chart, letting you visualize how price interacts with that institutional anchor:
Rejections from it show where yesterday's flow is respected.
Breaks through it may indicate that today's flows are rewriting the narrative.
⚪ Dynamic Dashboard Table
A live table appears in the corner of your screen, showing:
Each session's active status
Whether we’re inside the first hour
The current “true close” price if available
Each cell comes with advanced tooltips giving institutional context, flow dynamics, and market microstructure insights — from rebalancing spillovers to VWAP/TWAP lag effects.
█ How to Use
⚪ Use the First-Hour Line as Your Institutional Anchor
Treat it like the price level that big funds care about. Watch how the price behaves around level. Fades, re-tests, or continuation moves often occur as the market finishes recapping yesterday’s leftover orders.
⚪ Structure Entries Around the Session Context
Are you inside the first hour? Expect more volatility, more decisive flow. After the first session hour, expect fading liquidity as the market slows down and awaits the next session to open.
█ Settings
UTC Offset – Select your preferred time zone; all sessions adjust accordingly.
Session Toggles – Enable/disable Sydney, Tokyo, London, or NY.
Box Display Options – Show/hide session background, first-hour fill, borders.
True Close Line Controls – Enable line, label, and customize width & color.
Execution Hour Labels – Optional toggle for first-hour label placement.

Uptrick: Fusion Trend Reversion SystemOverview
The Uptrick: Fusion Trend Reversion System is a multi-layered indicator designed to identify potential price reversals during intraday movement while keeping traders informed of the dominant short-term trend. It blends a composite fair value model with deviation logic and a refined momentum filter using the Relative Strength Index (RSI). This tool was created with scalpers and short-term traders in mind and is especially effective on lower timeframes such as 1-minute, 5-minute, and 15-minute charts where price dislocations and quick momentum shifts are frequent.
Introduction
This indicator is built around the fusion of two classic concepts in technical trading: identifying trend direction and spotting potential reversion points. These are often handled separately, but this system merges them into one process. It starts by computing a fair value price using five moving averages, each with its own mathematical structure and strengths. These include the exponential moving average (EMA), which gives more weight to recent data; the simple moving average (SMA), which gives equal weight to all periods; the weighted moving average (WMA), which progressively increases weight with recency; the Arnaud Legoux moving average (ALMA), known for smoothing without lag; and the volume-weighted average price (VWAP), which factors in volume at each price level.
All five are averaged into a single value — the raw fusion line. This fusion acts as a dynamically balanced centerline that adapts to price conditions with both smoothing and responsiveness. Two additional exponential moving averages are applied to the raw fusion line. One is slower, giving a stable trend reference, and the other is faster, used to define momentum and cloud behavior. These two lines — the fusion slow and fusion fast — form the backbone of trend and signal logic.
Purpose
This system is meant for traders who want to trade reversals without losing sight of the underlying directional bias. Many reversal indicators fail because they act too early or signal too frequently in choppy markets. This script filters out noise through two conditions: price deviation and RSI confirmation. Reversion trades are considered only when the price moves a significant distance from fair value and RSI suggests a legitimate shift in momentum. That filtering process gives the trader a cleaner, higher-quality signal and reduces false entries.
The indicator also visually supports the trader through colored bars, up/down labels, and a filled cloud between the fast and slow fusion lines. These features make the market context immediately visible: whether the trend is up or down, whether a reversal just occurred, and whether price is currently in a high-risk reversion zone.
Originality and Uniqueness
What makes this script different from most reversal systems is the way it combines layers of logic — not just to detect signals, but to qualify and structure them. Rather than relying on a single MA or a raw RSI level, it uses a five-MA fusion to create a baseline fair value that incorporates speed, stability, and volume-awareness.
On top of that, the system introduces a dual-smoothing mechanism. It doesn’t just smooth price once — it creates two layers: one to follow the general trend and another to track faster deviations. This structure lets the script distinguish between continuation moves and possible turning points more effectively than a single-line or single-metric system.
It also uses RSI in a more refined way. Instead of just checking if RSI is overbought or oversold, the script smooths RSI and requires directional confirmation. Beyond that, it includes signal memory. Once a signal is generated, a new one will not appear unless the RSI becomes even more extreme and curls back again. This memory-based gating reduces signal clutter and prevents repetition, a rare feature in similar scripts.
Why these indicators were merged
Each moving average in the fusion serves a specific role. EMA reacts quickly to recent price changes and is often favored in fast-trading strategies. SMA acts as a long-term filter and smooths erratic behavior. WMA blends responsiveness with smoothing in a more balanced way. ALMA focuses on minimizing lag without losing detail, which is helpful in fast markets. VWAP anchors price to real trade volume, giving a sense of where actual positioning is happening.
By combining all five, the script creates a fair value model that doesn’t lean too heavily on one logic type. This fusion is then smoothed into two separate EMAs: one slower (trend layer), one faster (signal layer). The difference between these forms the basis of the trend cloud, which can be toggled on or off visually.
RSI is then used to confirm whether price is reversing with enough force to warrant a trade. The RSI is calculated over a 14-period window and smoothed with a 7-period EMA. The reason for smoothing RSI is to cut down on noise and avoid reacting to short, insignificant spikes. A signal is only considered if price is stretched away from the trend line and the smoothed RSI is in a reversal state — below 30 and rising for bullish setups, above 70 and falling for bearish ones.
Calculations
The script follows this structure:
Calculate EMA, SMA, WMA, ALMA, and VWAP using the same base length
Average the five values to form the raw fusion line
Smooth the raw fusion line with an EMA using sens1 to create the fusion slow line
Smooth the raw fusion line with another EMA using sens2 to create the fusion fast line
If fusion slow is rising and price is above it, trend is bullish
If fusion slow is falling and price is below it, trend is bearish
Calculate RSI over 14 periods
Smooth RSI using a 7-period EMA
Determine deviation as the absolute difference between current price and fusion slow
A raw signal is flagged if deviation exceeds the threshold
A raw signal is flagged if RSI EMA is under 30 and rising (bullish setup)
A raw signal is flagged if RSI EMA is over 70 and falling (bearish setup)
A final signal is confirmed for a bullish setup if RSI EMA is lower than the last bullish signal’s RSI
A final signal is confirmed for a bearish setup if RSI EMA is higher than the last bearish signal’s RSI
Reset the bullish RSI memory if RSI EMA rises above 30
Reset the bearish RSI memory if RSI EMA falls below 70
Store last signal direction and use it for optional bar coloring
Draw the trend cloud between fusion fast and fusion slow using fill()
Show signal labels only if showSignals is enabled
Bar and candle colors reflect either trend slope or last signal direction depending on mode selected
How it works
Once the script is loaded, it builds a fusion line by averaging five different types of moving averages. That line is smoothed twice into a fast and slow version. These two fusion lines form the structure for identifying trend direction and signal areas.
Trend bias is defined by the slope of the slow line. If the slow line is rising and price is above it, the market is considered bullish. If the slow line is falling and price is below it, it’s considered bearish.
Meanwhile, the script monitors how far price has moved from that slow line. If price is stretched beyond a certain distance (set by the threshold), and RSI confirms that momentum is reversing, a raw reversion signal is created. But the script only allows that signal to show if RSI has moved further into oversold or overbought territory than it did at the last signal. This blocks repetitive, weak entries. The memory is cleared only if RSI exits the zone — above 30 for bullish, below 70 for bearish.
Once a signal is accepted, a label is drawn. If the signal toggle is off, no label will be shown regardless of conditions. Bar colors are controlled separately — you can color them based on trend slope or last signal, depending on your selected mode.
Inputs

Conclusion
The Fusion Trend-Reversion System is a tool for short-term traders looking to fade price extremes without ignoring trend bias. It calculates fair value using five diverse moving averages, smooths this into two dynamic layers, and applies strict reversal logic based on RSI deviation and momentum strength. Signals are triggered only when price is stretched and momentum confirms it with increasingly strong behavior. This combination makes the tool suitable for scalping, intraday entries, and fast market environments where precision matters.

PulseWave + DivergenceOverview
PulseWave + Divergence is a momentum oscillator designed to optimize the classic RSI. Unlike traditional RSI, which can produce delayed or noisy signals, PulseWave offers a smoother and faster oscillator line that better responds to changes in market dynamics. By using a formula based on the difference between RSI and its moving average, the indicator generates fewer false signals, making it a suitable tool for day traders and swing traders in stock, forex, and cryptocurrency markets.
How It Works
Generating the Oscillator Line
The PulseWave oscillator line is calculated as follows:
RSI is calculated based on the selected data source (default: close price) and RSI length (default: 20 periods).
RSI is smoothed using a simple moving average (MA) with a selected length (default: 20 periods).
The oscillator value is the difference between the current RSI and its moving average: oscillator = RSI - MA(RSI).
This approach ensures high responsiveness to short-term momentum changes while reducing market noise. Unlike other oscillators, such as standard RSI or MACD, which rely on direct price values or more complex formulas, PulseWave focuses on the dynamics of the difference between RSI and its moving average. This allows it to better capture short-term trend changes while minimizing the impact of random price fluctuations. The oscillator line fluctuates around zero, making it easy to identify bullish trends (positive values) and bearish trends (negative values).
Divergences
The indicator optionally detects bullish and bearish divergences by comparing price extremes (swing highs/lows) with oscillator extremes within a defined pivot window (default: 5 candles left and right). Divergences are marked with "Bull" (bullish) and "Bear" (bearish) labels on the oscillator chart.
Signals
Depending on the selected signal type, PulseWave generates buy and sell signals based on:
Crosses of the overbought and oversold levels.
Crosses of the oscillator’s zero line.
A combination of both (option "Both").
Signals are displayed as triangles above or below the oscillator, making them easy to identify.
Input Parameters
RSI Length: Length of the RSI used in calculations (default: 20).
RSI MA Length: Length of the RSI moving average (default: 20).
Overbought/Oversold Level: Oscillator overbought and oversold levels (default: 12.0 and -12.0).
Pivot Length: Number of candles used to detect extremes for divergences (default: 5).
Signal Type: Type of signals to display ("Overbought/Oversold", "Zero Line", "Both", or "None").
Colors and Gradients: Full customization of line, gradient, and label colors.
How to Use
Adjust Parameters:
Increase RSI Length (e.g., to 30) for high-volatility markets to reduce noise.
Decrease Pivot Length (e.g., to 3) for faster divergence detection on short timeframes.
Interpret Signals:
Buy Signal: The oscillator crosses above the oversold level or zero line, especially with a bullish divergence.
Sell Signal: The oscillator crosses below the overbought level or zero line, especially with a bearish divergence.
Combine with Other Tools:
Use PulseWave alongside moving averages or support/resistance levels to confirm signals.
Monitor Divergences:
"Bull" and "Bear" labels indicate potential trend reversals. Set up alerts to receive notifications for divergences.
FVG fill with immediate rebalance [LuciTech]The "FVG fill with immediate rebalance AKA Golden Arrow" indicator is designed to identify Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and detect immediate rebalances to highlight potential trading opportunities. It uses colored boxes to mark FVGs and triangular markers to signal bullish or bearish setups, helping traders pinpoint key price levels where imbalances occur and price reactions are likely.
Key Features
FVG Detection: Spots bullish and bearish Fair Value Gaps based on price action, with customizable width settings.
Golden Arrow Signals: Displays triangular markers when price fills an FVG and immediately rebalances, indicating potential reversal or continuation zones.
Customizable Colors: Bullish FVGs appear in green and bearish FVGs in red by default, with options to tweak colors in the settings.
Time Filter: Allows signals to be restricted to a specific time window, highlighted by a background fill for clarity.
Alert System: Supports TradingView alerts for "Bullish Golden Arrow" and "Bearish Golden Arrow" signals to keep traders updated on setups.
How It Works
FVG Calculation: Analyzes gaps between candles to identify FVGs, with user-defined minimum width options (points, percentages, or ATR-based).
Signal Generation: Triggers a Golden Arrow signal when price fills the FVG and rebalances immediately, based on wick penetration and closing conditions.
Visual Aids:
Bullish FVGs are shown as green boxes, bearish FVGs as red boxes.
Upward triangles mark bullish signals, downward triangles mark bearish signals.
Time-Based Filtering: Optionally limits signals to specific hours, with a background fill showing the active period.
Volume Weighted Regression ChannelThis indicator constructs a volume-weighted linear regression channel over a custom time range.
It’s conceptually similar to a Volume Profile, but instead of projecting horizontal value zones, it builds a tilted trend channel that reflects both price direction and volume concentration.
🧠 Core Features:
Volume-weighted points: Each candle contributes to the regression line proportionally to its volume — heavier candles shift the channel toward high-activity price zones.
Linear regression line: Shows the trend direction within the selected time interval.
±σ boundaries: Outer bands represent the standard deviation of price (also volume-weighted), highlighting statistical dispersion.
Fully customizable: Adjustable line styles, widths, and channel width (sigma multiplier).
Time window control: Select any start and end time to define the regression interval.
📊 Why use this instead of Volume Profile?
While Volume Profile shows horizontal distributions of traded volume, this indicator is ideal when:
You want to understand how volume clusters affect trend direction, not just price levels.
You're analyzing time-dependent flow rather than static price zones.
You're looking for a dynamic volume-adjusted channel that moves with the market's structure.
It’s especially useful in identifying volume-supported trends, hidden pullback zones, and statistical extremes.
⚙️ Notes:
Works on any timeframe and instrument.
Does not repaint.
Does not require volume profile data feeds — uses standard volume and hl2.
CandelaCharts - 1st Presented FVG 📝 Overview
The ICT 1st Presented Fair Value Gap refers to the first FVG that forms after the market opens at 9:30 AM New York local time. In a sideways market, it often acts as a catalyst for price movement in either direction, while in trending conditions, it tends to support and reinforce the prevailing trend.
This indicator automatically identifies the first Fair Value Gap (FVG) that forms after the New York session opens at 9:30 AM local time. Based on concepts taught by Inner Circle Trader (ICT), the 1st Presented FVG is a key institutional price imbalance that often sets the tone for the trading day.

📒 Usage
How to Use the ICT 1st Presented Fair Value Gap in Trading
To apply the ICT 1st Presented Fair Value Gap (FVG), identify the first fair value gap of the day and extend it across the chart until 3:45 PM New York time.
You’ll often notice that some of the best trade setups form around this level. It tends to act as a key reference point for price action during the day—especially on trending days, where price frequently returns to this gap before continuing in its direction.
This level can also serve as an inverse fair value gap, offering opportunities in the opposite direction under the right conditions.
How to Disqualify the 1st Presented Fair Value Gap?
When the first fair value gap forms after 9:30 AM New York time, check the candles that came just before it.
If the candlestick that creates the FVG doesn’t break above or below the range of those previous candles, then it’s not a true inefficiency. In that case, it’s considered a disqualified 1st Presented Fair Value Gap—meaning it shouldn’t be used as a key reference level.
Refer to the example below to see what this looks like on the chart.

Mark4ex vWapMark4ex VWAP is a precision session-anchored Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) indicator crafted for intraday traders who want clean, reliable VWAP levels that reset daily to match a specific market session.
Unlike the built-in continuous VWAP, this version anchors each day to your chosen session start and end time, most commonly aligned with the New York Stock Exchange Open (9:30 AM EST) through the market close (4:00 PM EST). This ensures your VWAP reflects only intraday price action within your active trading window — filtering out irrelevant overnight moves and providing clearer mean-reversion signals.
Key Features:
Fully configurable session start & end times — adapt it for NY session or any other market.
Anchored VWAP resets daily for true session-based levels.
Built for the New York Open Range Breakout strategy: see how price interacts with VWAP during the volatile first 30–60 minutes of the US market.
Plots a clean, dynamic line that updates tick-by-tick during the session and disappears outside trading hours.
Designed to help you spot real-time support/resistance, intraday fair value zones, and liquidity magnets used by institutional traders.
How to Use — NY Open Range Breakout:
During the first hour of the New York session, institutional traders often define an “Opening Range” — the high and low formed shortly after the bell. The VWAP in this zone acts as a dynamic pivot point:
When price is above the session VWAP, bulls are in control — the level acts as a support floor for pullbacks.
When price is below the session VWAP, bears dominate — the level acts as resistance against bounces.
Breakouts from the opening range often test the VWAP for confirmation or rejection.
Traders use this to time entries for breakouts, retests, or mean-reversion scalps with greater confidence.
⚙️ Recommended Settings:
Default: 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM New York time — standard US equities session.
Adjust hours/minutes to match your target market’s open and close.
👤 Who is it for?
Scalpers, day traders, prop traders, and anyone trading the NY Open, indices like the S&P 500, or highly liquid stocks during US cash hours.
🚀 Why use Mark4ex VWAP?
Because a properly anchored VWAP is a trader’s real-time institutional fair value, giving you better context than static moving averages. It adapts live to volume shifts and helps you follow smart money footprints.
This indicator will reconfigure every day, anchored to the New York Open, it will also leave historical NY Open VWAP for study purpose.
EWMA Volatility EstimatorThis script calculates EWMA Volatility (Exponentially Weighted Moving Average Volatility).
Commonly used model in financial risk management.
It estimates recent price volatility by applying more weight to the most recent returns, capturing volatility clustering while remaining responsive to fast market shifts.
The method uses a decay factor (λ) of 0.94, the standard value used in models like RiskMetrics, and converts the variance estimate into annualized volatility in percentage terms.
This is not a forecasting tool. It’s an estimator that reflects the magnitude of recent price moves in a statistically robust way.
It can be helpful for:
Understanding regime shifts in market behavior
Designing position sizing rules based on recent volatility
Filtering entries during high or low volatility phases
How It Works
Computes log returns of the closing price.
Squares the returns to get a proxy for variance.
Applies an exponential moving average to the squared returns using an equivalent EMA period based on λ = 0.94.
Converts the result to volatility by taking the square root and scaling to a percentage.
Key Characteristics
Backward-looking estimator
Reacts faster than standard rolling-window volatility
Smooths noise while still being sensitive to recent spikes

SuperTrend Adaptive (STD Smooth)Supertrend Adaptive (Smoothed StdDev)
Supertrend Adaptive is a refined trend-following indicator based on the classic Supertrend. It enhances the original by incorporating smoothed standard deviation into the volatility calculation, instead of relying solely on ATR. This hybrid approach enables more responsive and adaptive trend detection, reducing noise and false signals in volatile or ranging markets. The indicator also features confidence-weighted signal labels and a clean, uncluttered display, making it practical for any trading timeframe.
🔍 Detailed Methodology and Conceptual Foundation
Unlike traditional Supertrend indicators that use only absolute volatility (ATR) to define trend bands, this version blends standard deviation — a relative volatility measure — into the calculation. Standard deviation helps capture the dispersion of price, not just its range, and when smoothed, it filters out erratic jumps caused by sudden spikes or drops.
This fusion creates trend bands that expand and contract dynamically based on recent price variability. As a result:
Fewer whipsaws : The trend bands adjust to both low and high volatility environments, which helps avoid unnecessary signal flips during consolidation.
Stronger trend adherence : Signals are less reactive to momentary price movements. This allows the indicator to hold positions longer in trending markets, giving traders the opportunity to ride extended moves.
Bollinger Band-style adaptation : By including standard deviation, this indicator behaves similarly to Bollinger Bands — accounting for relative price change rather than absolute moves alone.
These enhancements make the tool suitable not only for identifying directional bias, but also for refining entries and exits with more context-aware volatility filtering.
📈 How to Use the Indicator
Trend Direction: The script draws a colored line beneath (uptrend) or above (downtrend) price. Green indicates bullish trend, red indicates bearish.
Buy/Sell Labels: Only the most recent signal is shown to reduce clutter:
🟢 Green "Buy" label = trend reversal to bullish, with strong confidence.
🔵 Blue "Buy" label = same reversal, but with lower volume confidence.
🔴 Red "Sell" label = trend reversal to bearish, with strong confidence.
🟠 Orange "Sell" label = bearish signal with lower volume confidence.
These color codes are derived from comparing current volume to its average — a higher-than-average volume gives greater confidence to the signal.
Settings:
ATR Period: Controls the smoothing window for volatility calculation.
ATR Multiplier: Adjusts the size of the trend bands.
Std Smooth: Controls smoothing applied to standard deviation to reduce jitter.
Change ATR Method: Option to toggle between default and smoothed ATR.
Show Signals: Toggle for label display.
📢 Alerts
The script includes three built-in alert conditions:
Buy Signal: Triggered when the trend flips to bullish.
Sell Signal: Triggered when the trend flips to bearish.
Trend Direction Change: Alerts on any switch in trend regardless of confidence level.
These alerts allow traders to automate notifications or integrations with bots or trading platforms.
🧼 Clean Chart Display
To ensure clarity and comply with best practices:
The chart shows only this indicator.
Trend lines are drawn in real time for visual context.
Only one label per direction is shown — the most recent one — to keep the chart readable.
No drawings or unrelated indicators are included.
This setup ensures the script’s signals and structure are immediately understandable at a glance.
📌 Best Use Cases
This tool is designed for:
Traders who want adaptive volatility filters instead of rigid ATR-based models.
Scalpers and swing traders who prefer clean charts with minimal lag and fewer false signals.
Any asset class — works well on crypto, FX, and equities.
Shortcoming of this tool is sideway price action (will be tackled in next versions).

Candle Range Detector by TradeTech AnalysisCandle Range Detector by TradeTech Analysis
This advanced indicator identifies and visualizes price compression zones based on inside bar formations, then tracks how price behaves around those zones — offering valuable insights into liquidity sweeps, range expansions, and trap/mitigation behavior.
The script builds upon the foundational concept of range-based price action, commonly used by institutional traders, and adds automation, mitigation tracking, and sweep detection to map how price reacts around these critical ranges.
🔍 How It Works:
• Range Formation: A new range is detected when the current candle forms entirely within the high and low of the previous candle (i.e., an inside bar). This behavior often indicates price compression and potential breakout zones.
• Range Extension: Once a range is confirmed, the script projects upper and lower boundaries (using either a percentage-based multiplier or Fibonacci log extension), providing context for expected breakout zones.
• Mitigation Tracking: The script continuously monitors whether price breaks above or below the projected extensions, marking that range as mitigated — useful for confirming whether liquidity was absorbed.
• Sweep Detection: If price re-visits a mitigated zone and shows signs of a liquidity sweep (via wick + close behavior), the indicator triggers visual sweep labels and optional alerts.
🧠 Optional Visual Enhancements:
• Highlight range-forming candles with light blue background (toggle on/off)
• Midpoint dotted line for symmetry analysis
• Labels for “Range High” and “Range Low” for visual clarity
• Dynamic box drawing that adapts upon mitigation or continuation
⚙️ Customizable Features:
• Choose between Normal and Fibonacci-based detection modes
• Toggle visibility of range boxes, extension lines, and sweep markers
• Configure sweep alerts, mitigation window size, and visual transparency
⸻
🧪 Use Cases
• Identify consolidation zones before major price moves
• Confirm liquidity sweeps for entry/exit traps
• Visualize and test mitigation behavior of past zones
• Combine with Order Flow or Volume Profile tools to enhance context
⸻
⚠️ This is a fully original implementation that goes beyond classical inside-bar scanners by incorporating mitigation, extension projection, and liquidity sweeps — making it a powerful tool for intraday, swing, and even Smart Money-based trading setups.
