Multi-Timeframe Price Action AnalysisMulti-Timeframe Price Action Analysis
This indicator analyzes price action across multiple timeframes to determine bullish and bearish signals. It creates a dashboard showing how price interacts with previous candles' highs and lows.
Features
- Analyzes 4 customizable timeframes simultaneously
- Detects when price:
-- Grabs lows and comes back inside (bullish)
-- Grabs highs and comes back inside (bearish)
-- Grabs both highs and lows
-- Moves above previous high
-- Moves below previous low
-- Calculates bullish/bearish percentages for each timeframe
-- Visual dashboard with color-coded signals
Adjustable confirmation settings
-- Settings
-- Customize timeframes (default: 15min, 1H, 4H, D)
-- Toggle confirmation waiting
-- Set number of confirmation candles
This is a very rudimentary version.. I will make a more robust version soon
For it to be considered a "grab" the current price must be within the previous candle's range..
This also does not focus on candle closures just highs and lows
Also note that this is a little aggressive in that it does not require a bullish close for example to be considered bullish, a bearish close inside the previous candle is considered valid, this is to handle the morning stars that have a slightly bearish close in middle candle etc.. obviously do not rely on this indicator.. look at the price action and determine if you think its worth taking..
Same goes for bullish closes inside previous candle after grabbing highs..

BSL & SSL - Liquidity Zones
BSL & SSL - Liquidity Zones
Indicator Description (for TradingView)
Concept
The BSL & SSL - Liquidity Zones indicator is a simple yet powerful visual tool that helps traders identify key liquidity zones in the market by tracking prominent highs and lows on the chart.
It is based on the concept that the Highest High (Buy Side Liquidity - BSL) and Lowest Low (Sell Side Liquidity - SSL) represent zones where stop-loss orders and pending orders accumulate — often attracting future price movements.
Purpose
This indicator helps traders spot hidden liquidity levels which may act as targets or potential reversal points. It is especially useful for traders who apply Smart Money Concepts (SMC) or institutional trading models.
Great for detecting potential stop hunts and understanding market structure shifts.
How It Works
The indicator calculates the Highest High and Lowest Low over a user-defined period (default: 20 candles).
When a new Higher High forms, it marks a new BSL.
When a new Lower Low forms, it marks a new SSL.
These zones are likely to attract price in the future — either as targets or traps.
Visualization
The indicator draws static horizontal lines (Stepline style) at BSL and SSL levels.
These lines remain in place until broken or a new level is formed.
Visual Labels enhance clarity:
🟢 Green Label → BSL
🔴 Red Label → SSL
Trading Insights / Practical Use
When price approaches a BSL or SSL zone, ask yourself:
✅ Will price break the level to grab liquidity?
✅ Will there be a reversal after liquidity is taken?
The indicator does not provide signals by itself — it serves as a valuable confirmation tool when combined with:
Price Action
Support & Resistance
Momentum Indicators
SMC Tools
Key Benefits
✅ Easy to use
✅ Enhances liquidity analysis
✅ Highlights zones targeted by institutional players
✅ Simple calculation — no complex formulas
Limitations
🚫 Does NOT generate buy/sell signals
🚫 Should be used as part of a complete trading framework
Conclusion
BSL & SSL - Liquidity Zones is a versatile and intuitive tool for any trader looking to better understand where liquidity is positioned on the chart.
It works across all timeframes and complements any trading strategy, especially Smart Money-based approaches.
CHoCH + BOS Detector (con líneas)este indicador sirve para simplificar las entrada scalper en el oro
Breakout TrendTiltFolio Breakout Trend indicator
The Breakout Trend indicator is designed to help traders clearly visualize trend direction by combining two complementary techniques: moving averages and Donchian-style breakout logic.
Rather than relying on just one type of signal, this indicator merges short-term and long-term moving averages with breakout levels based on recent highs and lows. The moving averages define the broader trend regime, while the breakout logic pinpoints moments when price confirms directional momentum. This layered approach filters out many false signals while still capturing high-conviction moves.
Yes, these are lagging indicators by design — and that’s the point. Instead of predicting every wiggle, the Breakout Trend waits for confirmation, offering higher signal quality and fewer whipsaws. When the price breaks above a recent high and sits above the long-term moving average, the trend is more likely to persist. That’s when this indicator shines.
While it performs best on higher timeframes (daily/weekly), it's also adaptable to shorter timeframes for intraday traders who value clean, systematic trend signals.
For early signal detection, we recommend pairing this with TiltFolio’s Buying/Selling Proxy, which anticipates pressure buildups—albeit with more noise.
It's easy to read and built for real-world trading discipline.

Fallback VWAP (No Volume? No Problem!) – Yogi365Fallback VWAP (No Volume? No Problem!) – Yogi365
This script plots Daily, Weekly, and Monthly VWAPs with ±1 Standard Deviation bands. When volume data is missing or zero (common in indices or illiquid assets), it automatically falls back to a TWAP-style calculation, ensuring that your VWAP levels always remain visible and accurate.
Features:
Daily, Weekly, and Monthly VWAPs with ±1 Std Dev bands.
Auto-detection of missing volume and seamless fallback.
Clean, color-coded trend table showing price vs VWAP/bands.
Uses hlc3 for VWAP source.
Labels indicate when fallback is used.
Best Used On:
Any asset or index where volume is unavailable.
Intraday and swing trading.
Works on all timeframes but optimized for overlay use.
How it Works:
If volume == 0, the script uses a constant fallback volume (1), turning the VWAP into a TWAP (Time-Weighted Average Price) — still useful for intraday or index-based analysis.
This ensures consistent plotting on instruments like indices (e.g., NIFTY, SENSEX,DJI etc.) which might not provide volume on TradingView.

Momentum Trend Bands (MTB)📌 What Is the Momentum Trend Bands (MTB) Indicator?
The Momentum Trend Bands (MTB) is a custom-built trend detection indicator that blends momentum and volatility into a dynamic, visual system. Its core goal is to help traders identify the beginning and strength of a trend earlier than traditional tools like moving averages, while filtering out market noise.
🧠 What Is It Built On?
The indicator is built on two foundational concepts:
1. Rate of Change (ROC): This measures the speed at which the price is moving. We use a fast and a slow version of ROC and then calculate their difference. This difference gives us a momentum signal — it shows whether the price is gaining upward or downward strength.
2. Standard Deviation (Volatility): This shows how much the price fluctuates. By calculating it over a certain period, we can measure market noise and filter out weak, insignificant moves that might otherwise cause false signals.
Together, momentum shows direction, and volatility shows confidence.
🛠️ How Does It Work?
• The core of the indicator is a smoothed momentum signal, representing the net difference between fast and slow momentum.
• Around this signal, we build upper and lower bands — these are dynamic boundaries that expand or contract based on volatility.
• When the momentum breaks above or below these bands, it signals a strong directional move — suggesting the start or continuation of a trend.
The bands also serve a visual filter:
• If momentum stays within the bands, it implies the market is consolidating or ranging.
• When it exits the bands decisively, it implies strength in that direction.
📈 How to Use It?
1. Trend Entry:
o When the momentum signal rises above the upper band, it suggests a strong bullish trend may be starting.
o When the signal drops below the lower band, it indicates a bearish trend.
2. Stay Out of Chop:
o If the signal moves sideways within the bands, it’s best to avoid trading — the market is likely consolidating or ranging.
3. Visual Confirmation:
o The background color changes with the trend: green for bullish, red for bearish, gray for neutral. This makes it quick to read visually.
4. Signal Arrows:
o Small up or down arrows appear when trends begin, serving as early entry points.
⚙️ What Kind of Market Does It Work Best In?
• Trending Markets: MTB shines in markets with strong directional movement — whether up or down. It's designed to pick up momentum early and hold through trend continuation.
• Volatile Instruments: The built-in volatility filter helps in markets like crypto or commodities where price action is fast and erratic.
• Avoid Flat or Low-Volume Conditions: In sideways markets, MTB may stay gray or flip often — these are not ideal times to trade using this indicator alone.
💎 Why Is It Unique?
Unlike many indicators that react slowly (like moving averages) or trigger too often (like raw momentum), MTB balances early detection with reliability. Its unique combination of:
• ROC difference for directional intent,
• Smoothing for signal clarity,
• Bands scaled by volatility for robustness,
…makes it stand apart from commonly available indicators on platforms like TradingView.
40 Ticker Cross-Sectional Z-Scores [BackQuant]40 Ticker Cross-Sectional Z-Scores
BackQuant’s 40 Ticker Cross-Sectional Z-Scores is a powerful portfolio management strategy that analyzes the relative performance of up to 40 different assets, comparing them on a cross-sectional basis to identify the top and bottom performers. This indicator computes Z-scores for each asset based on their log returns and evaluates them relative to the mean and standard deviation over a rolling window. The Z-scores represent how far an asset's return deviates from the average, and these values are used to rank the assets, allowing for dynamic asset allocation based on performance.
By focusing on the strongest-performing assets and avoiding the weakest, this strategy aims to enhance returns while managing risk. Additionally, by adjusting for standard deviations, the system offers a risk-adjusted method of ranking assets, making it suitable for traders who want to dynamically allocate capital based on performance metrics rather than just price movements.
Key Features
1. Cross-Sectional Z-Score Calculation:
The system calculates Z-scores for 40 different assets, evaluating their log returns against the mean and standard deviation over a rolling window. This enables users to assess the relative performance of each asset dynamically, highlighting which assets are performing better or worse compared to their historical norms. The Z-score is a useful statistical tool for identifying outliers in asset performance.
2. Asset Ranking and Allocation:
The system ranks assets based on their Z-scores and allocates capital to the top performers. It identifies the top and bottom assets, and traders can allocate capital to the top-performing assets, ensuring that their portfolio is aligned with the best performers. Conversely, the bottom assets are removed from the portfolio, reducing exposure to underperforming assets.
3. Rolling Window for Mean and Standard Deviation Calculations:
The Z-scores are calculated based on rolling means and standard deviations, making the system adaptive to changing market conditions. This rolling calculation window allows the strategy to adjust to recent performance trends and minimize the impact of outdated data.
4. Mean and Standard Deviation Visualization:
The script provides real-time visualizations of the mean (x̄) and standard deviation (σ) of asset returns, helping traders quickly identify trends and volatility in their portfolio. These visual indicators are useful for understanding the current market environment and making more informed allocation decisions.
5. Top & Bottom Performer Tables:
The system generates tables that display the top and bottom performers, ranked by their Z-scores. Traders can quickly see which assets are outperforming and underperforming. These tables provide clear and actionable insights, helping traders make informed decisions about which assets to include in their portfolio.
6. Customizable Parameters:
The strategy allows traders to customize several key parameters, including:
Rolling Calculation Window: Set the window size for the rolling mean and standard deviation calculations.
Top & Bottom Tickers: Choose how many of the top and bottom assets to display and allocate capital to.
Table Orientation: Select between vertical or horizontal table formats to suit the user’s preference.
7. Forward Test & Out-of-Sample Testing:
The system includes out-of-sample forward tests, ensuring that the strategy is evaluated based on real-time performance, not just historical data. This forward testing approach helps validate the robustness of the strategy in dynamic market conditions.
8. Visual Feedback and Alerts:
The system provides visual feedback on the current asset rankings and allocations, with dynamic labels and plots on the chart. Additionally, users receive alerts when allocations change, keeping them informed of important adjustments.
9. Risk Management via Z-Scores and Std Dev:
The system’s approach to asset selection is based on Z-scores, which normalize performance relative to the historical mean. By incorporating standard deviation, it accounts for the volatility and risk associated with each asset. This allows for more precise risk management and portfolio construction.
10. Note on Mean Reversion Strategy:
If you take the inverse of the signals provided by this indicator, the strategy can be used for mean-reversion rather than trend-following. This would involve buying the underperforming assets and selling the outperforming ones. However, it's important to note that this approach does not work well with highly correlated assets, as the relationship between the assets could result in the same directional movement, undermining the effectiveness of the mean-reversion strategy.

Final Thoughts
The 40 Ticker Cross-Sectional Z-Scores strategy offers a data-driven approach to portfolio management, dynamically allocating capital based on the relative performance of assets. By using Z-scores and standard deviations, this strategy ensures that capital is directed to the strongest performers while avoiding weaker assets, ultimately improving the risk-adjusted returns of the portfolio. Whether you’re focused on trend-following or looking to explore mean-reversion strategies, this flexible system can be tailored to suit your investment goals.
Performance Metrics With Bracketed Rebalacing [BackQuant]Performance Metrics With Bracketed Rebalancing
The Performance Metrics With Bracketed Rebalancing script offers a robust method for assessing portfolio performance, integrating advanced portfolio metrics with different rebalancing strategies. With a focus on adaptability, the script allows traders to monitor and adjust portfolio weights, equity, and other key financial metrics dynamically. This script provides a versatile approach for evaluating different trading strategies, considering factors like risk-adjusted returns, volatility, and the impact of portfolio rebalancing.
Please take the time to read the following:
Key Features and Benefits of Portfolio Methods
Bracketed Rebalancing:
Bracketed Rebalancing is an advanced strategy designed to trigger portfolio adjustments when an asset's weight surpasses a predefined threshold. This approach minimizes overexposure to any single asset while maintaining flexibility in response to market changes. The strategy is particularly beneficial for mitigating risks that arise from significant asset weight fluctuations. The following image illustrates how this method reacts when asset weights cross the threshold:
Daily Rebalancing:
Unlike the bracketed method, Daily Rebalancing adjusts portfolio weights every trading day, ensuring consistent asset allocation. This method aims for a more even distribution of portfolio weights, making it a suitable option for traders who prefer less sensitivity to individual asset volatility. Here's an example of Daily Rebalancing in action:
No Rebalancing:
For traders who prefer a passive approach, the "No Rebalancing" option allows the portfolio to remain static, without any adjustments to asset weights. This method may appeal to long-term investors or those who believe in the inherent stability of their selected assets. Here’s how the portfolio looks when no rebalancing is applied:
Portfolio Weights Visualization:
One of the standout features of this script is the visual representation of portfolio weights. With adjustable settings, users can track the current allocation of assets in real-time, making it easier to analyze shifts and trends. The following image shows the real-time weight distribution across three assets:
Rolling Drawdown Plot:
Managing drawdown risk is a critical aspect of portfolio management. The Rolling Drawdown Plot visually tracks the drawdown over time, helping traders monitor the risk exposure and performance relative to the peak equity levels. This feature is essential for assessing the portfolio's resilience during market downturns:
Daily Portfolio Returns:
Tracking daily returns is crucial for evaluating the short-term performance of the portfolio. The script allows users to plot daily portfolio returns to gain insights into daily profit or loss, helping traders stay updated on their portfolio’s progress:
Performance Metrics
Net Profit (%):
This metric represents the total return on investment as a percentage of the initial capital. A positive net profit indicates that the portfolio has gained value over the evaluation period, while a negative value suggests a loss. It's a fundamental indicator of overall portfolio performance.
Maximum Drawdown (Max DD):
Maximum Drawdown measures the largest peak-to-trough decline in portfolio value during a specified period. It quantifies the most significant loss an investor would have experienced if they had invested at the highest point and sold at the lowest point within the timeframe. A smaller Max DD indicates better risk management and less exposure to significant losses.
Annual Mean Returns (% p/y):
This metric calculates the average annual return of the portfolio over the evaluation period. It provides insight into the portfolio's ability to generate returns on an annual basis, aiding in performance comparison with other investment opportunities.
Annual Standard Deviation of Returns (% p/y):
This measure indicates the volatility of the portfolio's returns on an annual basis. A higher standard deviation signifies greater variability in returns, implying higher risk, while a lower value suggests more stable returns.
Variance:
Variance is the square of the standard deviation and provides a measure of the dispersion of returns. It helps in understanding the degree of risk associated with the portfolio's returns.
Sortino Ratio:
The Sortino Ratio is a variation of the Sharpe Ratio that only considers downside risk, focusing on negative volatility. It is calculated as the difference between the portfolio's return and the minimum acceptable return (MAR), divided by the downside deviation. A higher Sortino Ratio indicates better risk-adjusted performance, emphasizing the importance of avoiding negative returns.
Sharpe Ratio:
The Sharpe Ratio measures the portfolio's excess return per unit of total risk, as represented by standard deviation. It is calculated by subtracting the risk-free rate from the portfolio's return and dividing by the standard deviation of the portfolio's excess return. A higher Sharpe Ratio indicates more favorable risk-adjusted returns.
Omega Ratio:
The Omega Ratio evaluates the probability of achieving returns above a certain threshold relative to the probability of experiencing returns below that threshold. It is calculated by dividing the cumulative probability of positive returns by the cumulative probability of negative returns. An Omega Ratio greater than 1 indicates a higher likelihood of achieving favorable returns.
Gain-to-Pain Ratio:
The Gain-to-Pain Ratio measures the return per unit of risk, focusing on the magnitude of gains relative to the severity of losses. It is calculated by dividing the total gains by the total losses experienced during the evaluation period. A higher ratio suggests a more favorable balance between reward and risk.

Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) (% p/y):
CAGR represents the mean annual growth rate of the portfolio over a specified period, assuming the investment has been compounding over that time. It provides a smoothed annual rate of growth, eliminating the effects of volatility and offering a clearer picture of long-term performance.
Portfolio Alpha (% p/y):
Portfolio Alpha measures the portfolio's performance relative to a benchmark index, adjusting for risk. It is calculated using the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) and represents the excess return of the portfolio over the expected return based on its beta and the benchmark's performance. A positive alpha indicates outperformance, while a negative alpha suggests underperformance.
Portfolio Beta:
Portfolio Beta assesses the portfolio's sensitivity to market movements, indicating its exposure to systematic risk. A beta greater than 1 suggests the portfolio is more volatile than the market, while a beta less than 1 indicates lower volatility. Beta is used to understand the portfolio's potential for gains or losses in relation to market fluctuations.
Skewness of Returns:
Skewness measures the asymmetry of the return distribution. A positive skew indicates a distribution with a long right tail, suggesting more frequent small losses and fewer large gains. A negative skew indicates a long left tail, implying more frequent small gains and fewer large losses. Understanding skewness helps in assessing the likelihood of extreme outcomes.
Value at Risk (VaR) 95th Percentile:
VaR at the 95th percentile estimates the maximum potential loss over a specified period, given a 95% confidence level. It provides a threshold value such that there is a 95% probability that the portfolio will not experience a loss greater than this amount.
Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR):
CVaR, also known as Expected Shortfall, measures the average loss exceeding the VaR threshold. It provides insight into the tail risk of the portfolio, indicating the expected loss in the worst-case scenarios beyond the VaR level.
These metrics collectively offer a comprehensive view of the portfolio's performance, risk exposure, and efficiency. By analyzing these indicators, investors can make informed decisions, balancing potential returns with acceptable levels of risk.
Conclusion
The Performance Metrics With Bracketed Rebalancing script provides a comprehensive framework for evaluating and optimizing portfolio performance. By integrating advanced metrics, adaptive rebalancing strategies, and visual analytics, it empowers traders to make informed decisions in managing their investment portfolios. However, it's crucial to consider the implications of rebalancing strategies, as academic research indicates that predictable rebalancing can lead to market impact costs. Therefore, adopting flexible and less predictable rebalancing approaches may enhance portfolio performance and reduce associated costs.
EMA Pullback System 1:5 RRR [SL]EMA Trend Pullback System (1:5 RRR)
Summary:
This indicator is designed to identify high-probability pullback opportunities along the main trend, providing trade signals that target a high 1:5 Risk/Reward Ratio. It is a trend-following strategy built for patient traders who wait for optimal setups.
Strategy Logic:
The system is based on three Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs): 21, 50, and 200.
BUY Signal:
Trend (Uptrend): The price must be above the 200 EMA.
Pullback: The price must pull back into the "Dynamic Support Zone" between the 21 EMA and 50 EMA.
Confirmation: A strong Bullish Confirmation Candle (e.g., Bullish Engulfing) must form within this zone.
SELL Signal:
Trend (Downtrend): The price must be below the 200 EMA.
Pullback: The price must rally back into the "Dynamic Resistance Zone" between the 21 EMA and 50 EMA.
Confirmation: A strong Bearish Confirmation Candle (e.g., Bearish Engulfing) must form within this zone.
Key Features:
Clearly plots the 21, 50, and 200 EMAs on the chart.
Displays BUY and SELL labels when the rules are met.
Automatically calculates and plots Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) levels for each signal.
The Risk/Reward Ratio for the Take Profit level is customizable in the settings (Default: 1:5).
How to Use:
Best suited for higher timeframes like H1 and H4.
It is crucial to wait for the signal candle to close before considering an entry.
While this is an automated tool, for best results, combine its signals with your own analysis of Price Action and Market Structure.
